Chapter 171: Siege of the Imperial Pavilion
When the castle town house ordered an emergency assembly, and quickly rushed to the Takase Castle area in front of the assembled 3,000 people of Toyozen Province. The Kuroda family's attack on Takase Castle has been a fierce battle for an hour, and in this hour, the Kuroda family's army has basically controlled the situation in the entire city.
The fact that the military forces of the castle town house will come to help is actually a problem that Kuroda Vocational High School has already thought of, and it can be said that it is an inevitable situation. The people of Zhuqian regard the Chengjing Town House as their own backing, and the Chengjing Town House doesn't want to benefit the users to connect their 5,000 people!
That's 5,000 men! If the two sides can be most closely combined, it can definitely cause a lot of trouble for the Kuroda family. It's a pity that human beings are not simple animals, they can always think for others and not harm others.
Toji Kanren and Kiusu Kansu were deeply wary of the martial arts of the castle town, and this situation arose due to Otomo Sorin's wariness of the castle town. And Chengjing Zhenfang also has a deep guard against the two of them, as well as the five thousand people of the Zhuqian Kingdom under their command, for fear that they will turn against the guest and occupy their own territory.
It was because of the mutual distrust between the two sides that the Kuroda family was given precious time to launch a continuous and powerful attack on Takase Castle.
Because of the surveillance of the Kuroda family, the 4,000-strong Einsatzgruppen had already received the news that the Fengzen National Army of the castle town was coming, and the only doubt was that it would be sooner or later.
As the commander-in-chief of the four special forces, Moriharu Otani immediately transferred Katsumasa Island and his 1,000-man team to fend off the attack of Joi Zhenbo, while Masashiyoshi Masata and Kinugasa Keinobu continued to attack the rear of the Otomo family's army. Under the current circumstances, it is more than enough to leave 2,000 people to attack the Chikuzen country.
Otani Moriji is the commander-in-chief of the Einsatzgruppen, and he is also a veteran of the Kuroda family, so he still knows a lot of information, and with Kuroda's intentional reminder, he knows even more.
Otani Moriji knew that Joi Jinfang and his son Joi Asaho were brave people, but he still decided to take over the task of resisting them himself, which was indeed a very responsible act.
Masuda Masashi and Kinugasa Keiyan are not martial arts heroes, if they are asked to command the sniping of the Chengjing Zhenfang army, the final result may not be too good, so it may be a better choice to go by themselves.
The 2,000 members of the Kuroda family, under the leadership of Moriharu Otani, were all lined up opposite the castle townhouse, and the rear of the other two Einsatzgruppen was protected. The soldiers of the Kuroda family formed a defensive formation early, and under the urging of many relatives of the Otani family, a strict gun array and plum blossom array were staggered, orderly and not chaotic, if you can see it from a bird's eye view from the sky, the Kuroda family's formation is a beautiful picture spread out on the earth.
The most powerful thing about the Fengqian wealthy clan and the Chinese people led by Chengjing Zhenfang is that they fight a tailwind battle under the leadership of Chengjing Zhenfang and Chengjing Chaofang.
Don't look at the team that faced Kuroda Toshitaka before, they seem to have played well. But in fact, firstly, they took advantage of the sudden attack, and secondly, because their samurai strength was too much stronger than Kuroda's side, and Kuroda Toshitaka and they had no room to resist at all.
You don't see that the two powerful young samurai of the Kuroda family, Kuriyama Riyan and Shima Takeshi, are not the opponents of Shiroi Zhenfang alone, and after fighting for a while, they are still suppressed and have no room for respite.
And the other six samurai of the Kuroda family, besieging the castle and the house, not only did not get any advantage, but even seriously injured two of them, this is where the father and son of the castle house are powerful.
It's also a war with the castle town, but now Otani Moriji is still at war with the people of Toyozen Country, which is very different from Kuroda Toshitaka before.
Kuroda Toshitaka and the others were in a situation where the enemy was in the dark, and they had no idea that the castle town house would come with a large army to besiege them behind them, so they were suddenly attacked.
Moreover, at that time, Kuroda Toshitaka happened to be discussing countermeasures with several young samurai of the Kuroda family, and the absence of the samurai who led the army slowed down the Kuroda family's reaction even more.
And the most important point is that at that time, Kuroda Toshitaka only had a team of 1,000 people, and now on Otani Moriji's side, although the strength of the samurai is still far behind Kuroda Toshitaka's special team, the number has reached 2,000 people.
Moreover, these two groups of people are already ready to fight the enemy under the intelligence of the concentric people, and have done everything they can to deal with it, which occupies a favorable start.
And Joi Zhenfang is indeed a brave and fearless samurai, even if he knows that the Kuroda family is now outnumbered, even if he knows that he probably doesn't have much chance to face the Kuroda family, but he still took his own people without hesitation and rushed towards the Kuroda family's army, which was about the same number as himself.
After the Kuroda family was prepared, it was actually difficult for the team of the castle to cause very much damage to the Kuroda family, after all, the combat effectiveness of the Kuroda family's soldiers was still very strong.
Even if Kuroda Riga lost to Shiroi Zhenfang before, the battle loss ratio on both sides is also one to one, which is already very revealing, and there is a huge difference in combat effectiveness between the elite and the miscellaneous soldiers, which is a fact that is difficult for the samurai who leads the team to change.
At this time, a large number of soldiers of the Kuroda family had already invaded the imperial hall of Takase Castle, where the leading samurai of the Otomo family, Toji Kenren and Kitusu Kansu, as well as some of their relatives, had been besieged there.
The two of them were very tenacious in the face of the attack of the Kuroda family, and even the pestle and usu Jiansu, who was not very good at martial arts, had already killed two or three Kuroda family soldiers.
It's just that he really fought with his own life when he fought, and just killed these two or three Kuroda family soldiers, and he suffered three gunshot wounds on his body. That is to say, every time he kills someone, he has to be injured once, which shows how desperate he is.
And Toji Kanren was originally a person with strong martial arts, and in a small place like the Imperial Palace, his martial arts were able to play to a very good state, so he had a lot of gains, at least the ordinary Kuroda soldiers around him were difficult to gain a foothold.
