Chapter 33 Ite's Tomoshi goes into battle

The samurai and ashigaru who supervised the battle on the Urakami side were angry when they saw that their peasant soldiers did not advance but retreated, and the laughter of the Kuroda army came from the castle of Murozu Castle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Bastard, forward, no backwards, all forward, not backward." One of the Urakami clan's warlord samurai shouted loudly. But his shouts did not have much effect, and the peasants still lingered.

"Bastard." After the samurai kicked a peasant soldier, the peasant soldier still refused to move forward, and he directly hacked the peasant soldier to death. Seeing that the samurai on their side really dared to kill, the peasants knew that they were afraid, and killed more than a dozen disobedient peasants in a row before the peasants continued to move forward. But the speed really can't be fast.

Under another round of crossbow arrows from the Kuroda family, more than 40 Urakami peasant soldiers fell directly, and the peasant soldiers wanted to run backwards again, but the Urakami Governor's team was not merciful at all this time, and directly killed more than 30 deserters who ran at the front, and the peasant soldiers could only continue to look at the city and run. Some of them used sticks, hoes, and the like to wield indiscriminately while running, and their biggest effect was to bring down dozens of difficult brothers and sisters around them. There are also peasant soldiers who have been following others, and whenever they feel that there is danger, they will pull the people in front of them in front of them to block their arrows. Some peasant soldiers simply threw the weapons in their hands that did not play much role to the ground, and ran forward with their heads in their hands.

Anyway, the entire attacking Urakami family army formation was in chaos, some people moved forward, some people did not move, and some people tried to run back, but they were killed by the warlords. The ladder and the wood used for the siege were directly thrown on the ground, no peasant soldiers would care about these things, and the back of the ashigaru wanted to pick up the ladder, but the peasant soldiers ran chaotically, and they didn't give them a chance at all, if they really picked it up, they were likely to be knocked down by the peasants and soldiers, and were trampled to death, and at this time there were already a few ashigaru who were trampled to death and trampled to injury, and they were the best example for the people behind.

Although some peasant soldiers had run under the city walls, they did not have any siege equipment and could not attack the city walls at all. They had to crouch under the walls to avoid the crossbow shots, but there were still wooden blocks and stones falling from the walls, and they still didn't have a safe place.

"Bastard, what are you doing here?" Urakami Sokei saw that the entire army was in disorganization in this formation, and shouted loudly in a rage.

Urakami Sokei ordered someone to stop the attack, and in the end, this wave of attacks turned into a farce. The Urakami family lost more than 600 peasant soldiers, but they were defeated without even touching the walls of Murozu Castle, and nearly half of these 600 men were killed by their own warlords or trampled to death by other peasant soldiers, while the Kuroda army miraculously suffered no casualties.

"Otawara, what the hell are you doing?" As soon as Otawara entered the main formation, Urakami asked angrily, and smashed the military match in his hand at Otawara Changshi, who was loyal and did not avoid or hide, and the military match just hit his forehead.

"Lord, let's retreat! The family only has 3,000 standing elites, and now it has lost 30%, and if it continues to fight like this, how can the Urakami family continue to rule Bizen Province. Otawara suddenly knelt on the ground and said.

"Shut up, Otawara, you bastard." Urakami stood up, strode in front of Otawara Nagatoki, and kicked Otawara Nagatoki.

"Lord ......"

"Shut up, Yanyuan Jingneng, you come to be the military commissioner, and the front-line supervision is handed over to you." Urakami said angrily.

"Hey," Yan Yuanjing replied respectfully.

"The lord ......" Otawara Choshi wanted to say something, but Urakami Sokei walked out of the main camp directly and ignored Otawara Chotoki at all. The other important ministers of the Urakami family were just sitting there, some looking at Otawara kneeling on the ground for a long time and thinking, some as if they hadn't seen anything, and some were talking to each other in private, not knowing what they were talking about.

"Lord, hey......" Otawara knelt on the ground for a long time and closed his eyes.

On the same day, news spread to Kamitsuki City, and Kuroda asked Imate Tomoji to lead Kamitsuki to prepare for the former country. At the same time, Matsui Shigetaka, who had already received the order, led 300 people from the Takino clan to Kamitsuki Castle to take over from the Itetomo clan to guard Kamitsuki Castle. After receiving the order, the Imate Tomoshi immediately led 300 men from the previous month, 100 Kuroda family crossbows, 200 standing guards, 200 peasant soldiers, and 300 people from the Sayo-gun clan led by Toshihata Sadaaki, a total of 1,100 people went out to prepare for the former country.

The forces of the Imate Tomo clan entered Bizen Province through the Thirteen Passes, and they did not travel far before they came to the foot of Three Stone Castle. Sanshi City is a mountain city built on the basis of the Thirteen Passes, and if there are enough personnel to defend here, it can definitely play a role in the effect of being a man and a man. Even if it is captured by the enemy, it will definitely drag on for a long time and cause huge losses to the enemy.

However, Urakami Sokei took most of the defenders of Sanshi Castle to Harima Province, and there were only about fifty people in the castle. When the Imate Tomoshi led the army to the castle, the head of the Ashigaru group who was defending the castle saw the army of Kuroda Fujiba under the castle, and was surprised and didn't know what to do. Could it be that Urakami's army was defeated? Otherwise, why would the Kuroda family appear here? If the lord is defeated, what will he do? But if the lord is not defeated, what can he do with these fifty? There are at least more than 1,000 people in the Kuroda family, and even if they want to defend the city, it is estimated that it will be difficult for them to hold it for more than an hour. In the end, gritting his teeth, he still decided to cage the city and fight with the Kuroda family.

After being persuaded to surrender, the head of the Ashigaru group was resolute, and the Ite-tomo clan lost patience and directly commanded the army to press it together. Imate Tomoji, Miyata Mitsuji, Kogawa Yoshitori, Urakami Kiyomune, Higashihata Sadaaki and others rushed forward with their own reserves. Fifty crossbows shot at the city wall in a volley, and the fifty ashigaru who defended the city immediately died, and the other ashigaru, including the head of the ashigaru group, were not lightly frightened, they never dreamed that the bows and arrows of the Kuroda family would be so powerful, and the ashigaru, who were still determined to die in the city, now have some changes in their hearts. There are a few people who are really not afraid of death, and those who say they are not afraid of death may just not encounter an emergency.

The army of the Imate Tomoshi began to attack the city wall, and as soon as it was contacted, the Kuroda family Ashigaru and the peasants were stabbed down several defenders, and the Urakami side also died a few, and the Imate Tomoshi and Miyata Koji easily went to the city wall, and then Kogawa Yoshitori, Urakami Kiyomune, Higashihata Sadaaki and others also went to the city wall, and then more and more Kuroda samurai and Ashigaru climbed the city wall, and it didn't take long to capture the three stone castles.

The ashigaru head was dying and rushed desperately towards Imate Yuji, Imate Yuji was almost injured, and his image of a lonely hero left an extremely deep impression on Imate Yuji. Although it's just a little ashigami who doesn't have a name, and his martial arts are not very good, but that courage is something that many samurai don't have. Therefore, after cleaning up the battlefield, Itetomo erected a wooden monument outside the castle for this ashigaru head, and wrote his heroic deeds to commemorate him.
