Chapter 20: The Seven Cities of Songshan (2)
"Withdraw, withdraw, everyone give me a quick retreat. "www.biquge.info When the samurai led by the four families saw this, they knew that this time they should have fallen for the Kuroda family's strategy. In order to preserve his strength to the maximum, he could only shout and retreat immediately. Just kidding, you must know that even the head of a country like the Mimura family is not the opponent of the Kuroda family's field battle, not to mention the hundreds of people and horses like the four coalition forces who were attacked by sneak attacks and were already panicking, if they really didn't react, they would probably be eaten by the Kuroda family.
But things are not so easy, since the Kuroda family has gone to great lengths to deceive them, how can they be easily let go! At this time, just when the soldiers of the four families had not recovered from the chaos, they did not know how many soldiers of the Kuroda family poured out from all directions, which can be regarded as an ambush from all sides!
In fact, the whole process is very simple, from the very beginning of the matter, everything is a strategy of the small temple vocational high. After he looked at the map nearby, he immediately thought of getting a siege point to send reinforcements, so the Kuroda family first surrounded the two cities of Matsushima Castle and Fuchuan Castle this time, creating the illusion that the two cities were besieged and precarious, and they would fall at any time. After that, he sent a clever concentric group, pretending to be the ashigaru of the Matsushima family, and went to Kamo Castle to ask for help.
Under the superb acting skills of the concentric people, the four cities of Kamo Castle, Hihata Castle, Guanshan Castle, and Miyaluyama Castle were successfully hooked, and all the actions of the rescue after that were also under the close monitoring of the concentric people. On their way, the Kuroda family arranged all the remaining 3,000 men and horses, in an attempt to eliminate the team to which the Mimura family belonged who had been deceived out of the city.
Of course, the arrangement of the small temple vocational high school was successful, and this time the ambush was very successful, except for more than 200 people who surrendered, the soldiers of the other four families were all killed.
After that, the 3,000 members of the Kuroda family were divided into two groups, and 1,500 people each led by Kuroda and Kodera entered the military camps under the two castles of Matsushima Castle and Fukugawa Castle.
"Do you know that?" In Matsushima Castle, Ashigaru, who was on duty, whispered to another.
"Brother, what's the matter?" The ashigaru cautiously looked around, and only asked in a low voice when he was sure that no samurai master was watching.
"This morning, the coalition forces of Kamo Castle and Hihata Castle tried to come to our rescue." The older one said softly.
"And then!"
"Hey! Defeated by the Kuroda family. The older Ashigaru sighed.
"Ahh Wouldn't that be a dangerous house? Young Ashigaru said in surprise.
"That's it! It is said that the Kuroda family is good for the captives, but if they resist a little, they will be killed on the spot! The older ashiki shook his head, as if thinking about the horror of being beheaded.
"There is such a thing?"
"Well, I also heard from my relatives in Bizen Province." Older Ashigaru
"Oh! Then it's really possible, the strength of the Kuroda family is so strong, even His Royal Highness the Tsurushou has been defeated, and the family is estimated to be in a catastrophe this time. Pity my newborn child, if I die, I hope my wife can take him to marry a good family. Young Ashigaru said with some sadness.
It is indeed the case, in this era, if the husband of the soldier dies, in order for herself and her children to live, women will basically choose to remarry, only in this way can the children survive and continue the incense.
"Actually, it's not so pessimistic, we actually still have a way to live." When the old Ashigaru was sad, he suddenly said something.
It was this sentence that made the young Ashigaru seem to have grasped a life-saving straw: "This big brother, is there any way to live!" ”
The older Ashigaru first took a deep breath, then pulled the young Ashigaru under the corner, looked around again, and after making sure that there was no one, he whispered: "If you want to survive, I think the only way is to surrender to the Kuroda family." ”
"Ahh
Young Ashigaru just cried out in surprise, but the older Ashigaru covered his mouth with his hand, "Do you want to kill the two of us?" ”
"Woo woo" Young Foot shook his head lightly, because his mouth was covered, so he could only make a little sound, but obviously he didn't want to die.
The older man opened his hand easily, and said with a sigh: "I also know that this may not be acceptable, but you also know that the Kuroda family is not right for our Matsushima family, and even for the Mimura family, it is indeed too powerful, and we can only carry it down for the whole city to be buried for His Royal Highness the Crane Head." To tell you the truth, I also have a son who is not successful, he is only ten years old this year, and the child's mother would have died a long time ago, if I died, I really don't know how this child will survive in the future! I guess it will end up being eaten by wild dogs! ”
Old Ashigaru said that he felt that he was going to cry, and the young Ashigaru felt that he was probably reluctant to give up his child! And why don't you think so! My child has just been born, if I go to someone else's house, what if others treat him badly, will it also become food in the mouth of a wild dog?
No, this is absolutely not possible, young Ashigaru told himself at this time that he absolutely had to live, he must not die here, and if he died here, everything would be over.
Such conversations take place in various parts of Matsushima Castle and Fuchuan Castle, but the final effect will only be reflected in the battle.
The next day, Kuroda took Otani Moriji, Miyata Mitsuji, Sasaki Nagahide, Hanabo Masayuki and others to Matsushima Castle, and a team of 2,500 people lined up in front of the castle in a neat and orderly small military formation.
Matsushima Goemon, the lord of Matsushima Castle, looked at the Kuroda army under the castle, and a cold sweat broke out on his head, is he really going to attack?
Yesterday, he got the news that the Kuroda army had defeated the reinforcements sent by the four cities such as Kamo Castle and Hihata Castle in his own territory, and as for why these four cities knew that this side was besieged, he didn't think much about it, it was estimated that the people from Fuchuan City had sent the message in the past!
When the Kuroda army besieged the city with 1,000 men before, Matsushima Goemon still felt nothing, but now when it has increased to more than 2,000 people, he still feels the pressure. Especially when he saw that the ordinary soldiers of the Kuroda Army seemed to have protective gear (bamboo armor), he was really a little scared, the Kuroda Army actually wore protective gear for ordinary soldiers, and the miscellaneous soldiers should not wear linen clothes, how strong is the combat effectiveness of the Kuroda Army at this time! No wonder even His Royal Highness Tsurushou was defeated by the Kuroda family, so can the Matsushima family still fight this battle? (To be continued.) )
