"What's going on out there? Why is it so noisy? After Urakami was woken up, he took a knife and walked out of the big tent. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Lord, many soldiers suddenly fell to the ground, and a lot of them died, and those who didn't die probably won't survive, and the sound came from the soldiers. The samurai in front said that it may have been poisoned, and it must have been poisoned by the Kuroda family, my lord, how are we doing now? Seeing Urakami Munekei appear, Otawara ran over for a long time.

"Tell the whole army to move to the west of Mount Kumgang, and never run in any other direction, you go and organize!"

"Hey!"

After a period of confusion, the Urakami family's army began to move in an orderly manner to the west of Mt. Kongo. But they absolutely didn't notice that the ashigaru and peasant soldiers on the sides and tail of the team were constantly falling behind, and they were actually killed by the Kuroda family's ninjas using kunai and ninja darts. After assassinating for a while, the Tongxin people retreated to Murozu Castle.

The Urakami army had just come to the foot of the mountain on the west side, when suddenly there was a fire all around, and there was a "free fire", hundreds of crossbow arrows came towards them, and the sound of a series of arrows entering the flesh sounded "puff puff". It was the Kuroda family's crossbow ashigaru that appeared on the opposite side, and they all shot the crossbow arrows in their hands at the first time by the light of the torches, killing the dozens of Urakami family soldiers who rushed in front. Although the line of sight is not good, the Urakami army is too dense, and as long as the crossbow bolt is fired, it will basically be killed. After three rounds of crossbow bolts, the crossbow did not shoot again, but began to retreat.

"Kill, kill, kill" The Ashigaru of the Kuroda family, under the leadership of the generals, came out of the woods, and the Urakami army was caught off guard. As soon as they made contact, the soldiers of the Urakami army who had not yet recovered from the crossbow arrows were hacked to death and stabbed to death, and it was not until the soldiers of the Kuroda family began to attack for the second time that they came to their senses and began to resist unorganizedly, but they were still at a disadvantage.

It wasn't until the Urakami Army got the news that it was a sneak attack, and all the samurai were pressed up, and the offensive began to be reorganized, and Kuroda saw that it was impossible to break up the formation of the Urakami Army, and the other side had already dealt with it, and began to organize a counterattack, so he commanded the Kuroda Army to retreat. The Urakami army did not know the surrounding situation, and the Kuroda family did not dare to pursue it when they retreated, for fear that they would encounter ambushes and sneak attacks, and the Kuroda army retreated.

After all the Kuroda troops retreated, the Urakami side counted the number of people, and there were more than 7,600 people left in the 8,000 people, and another 400 men and horses were lost.

The next day, as soon as the sky was brightened, the Urakami army began to prepare for the siege of the city, and as before, the Urakami army still pressed the whole army in one breath today, trying to exert the maximum pressure on the Kuroda family, so as to increase the effective killing of the Kuroda family.

After the Kuroda family's crossbows attacked six rounds, they all stopped attacking because the embarrassing crossbow arrows were gone. The production of crossbows requires bird feathers, since the Kuroda family began to use crossbows, all kinds of birds in Kuroda's collar have been bad, and they have basically been caught, but even so, the Kuroda family has also produced more than 10,000 crossbow arrows, and crossbow arrows are required for crossbow training before, and there will be loss in training, although most of the feathers can be recycled, but after all, damage is inevitable, and the final result is that the crossbow arrows are used less and less, and the crossbow arrows used today also include more than 300 usable crossbow arrows recovered from the battlefield, otherwise you won't be able to shoot three rounds at all. After defending for more than ten minutes, all the wood and stones on the city wall were used up, and the Kuroda family could only engage in white-knuckle battles after that. The Urakami family's bow and ashigaru were basically wiped out in the battle the day before, and the few who survived were also killed in the night under the poisonous smoke, and there were no long-range attacks on either side.

The samurai of the Urakami family and the ashigaru also rushed desperately to the head of the city, and the samurai of the Kuroda family, Ashigaru, was also desperately defending, and the head of the city became a meat grinder, and the soldiers on both sides continued to fall under the killing, and life and blood seemed to have become the cheapest thing at this moment, and it continued to disappear at the head of the city, and there were new additions. Under the constant onslaught, the steady stream of death seemed to have numbed the nerves of everyone on both sides.

The soldiers of the Kuroda family, like robots, slash and stab mechanically, as soon as the enemy emerges, a weapon will come to his head. The knife was cut in half, the spear was broken in half, and he threw it in his hand, and immediately picked up a useful weapon dropped by his companion or enemy from the nearby ground, and continued to fight the enemy.

The soldiers of the Urakami family, as long as they came to the city wall as soon as they were concerned, even if they did not see the enemy, began to slash hard, only in this way could they really get on the city wall, because the enemy might be hiding behind the city wall. As soon as they got up the city wall, they began to desperately force back the enemy in front of them, so that their companions could come up, and often the people behind them were killed by the soldiers of the Kuroda family before they could come up.

There are constantly corpses thrown under the city wall by the Ashigaru of the Kuroda family, otherwise there is no way to stand on the city wall, even so, the blood on the city wall has made the city wall extremely slippery, the soldiers of the Kuroda family have basically adapted, but they still can't do relatively large movements, otherwise they may fall, at the very beginning, when two peasant soldiers ran, because the blood slid to, fell directly under the city wall on the side of the city, one fell to his death on the spot, and one was lucky, fell to the grain and grass cart and picked up a life, After that, the soldiers of the Kuroda family will be more careful in fighting. The soldiers on the Urakami side did not know the situation on the city wall, many of them were on the city wall, and they were just about to swing their weapons, but they were unsteady on their feet and fell to the ground, and they were killed by the soldiers of the Kuroda family who had been prepared for a long time.

At the time of the battle between the Urakami family and the Kuroda family at Murozu Castle, Akamatsu Yoshisuke's army finally came to the foot of the Kitaigawa Fortress, which was guarded by Tsuchiyahachi.

This time, Akamatsu Yoshisuke only made up more than 400 troops in the mobilization collar, and the samurai and ashigaru were less than 100 people in total, and the rest were all old, weak, sick and disabled peasant soldiers. As for some other small wealthy clans, when they heard that they were going to fight the Kuroda family, they all directly persuaded the envoy of Akamatsu Yoshisuke to leave. The Kuroda family's combat power is already well-known in Harima Country, and even Akamatsu Masahide is not the Kuroda family's opponent, so let dozens of people go up to send them to death?

In fact, after seeing his team, Akamatsu Yoshisuke himself felt that it was impossible to defeat the Kuroda family's general, Tsuchihi Yahachi, and the lesson from the last time was too profound. His plan was to make a symbolic battle, as long as he could contain the few soldiers and horses of the Kuroda family, he could use this to claim land from Urakami Sokei at that time. He now regards Urakami Sokei as his best hope for obtaining land, and fully believes that the Urakami family can defeat the Kuroda family, and he looks forward to the time when Urakami Sokei can give him some land, even if it is only 10,000 stones.

The news that Akamatsu Yoshiyo sent 500 troops has already spread to Tufei Yahachi, and there are not as many people as last time, and the quality of the soldiers is not high, so dare to come with salt and red pine? Tsuchihi Yahachi thought that his ears were hallucinating, until he confirmed that this was the case, his eyes kept rolling, and he thought of a good way, which was the tactics that he had specifically asked for advice from Koji Zhigao before.

When Yoshisuke Akamatsu marched to a mile away from the Kitagawa River, he found that Yahachi Tohi was waiting for him on the main road in front of the woods with only a few dozen people. I finally brought more than 500 people, and Tu Feimi only brought dozens of people to fight, which is simply naked contempt!
