Chapter 30 Sail to the Sea

The situation took a turn for the worse, and the original successful arrival of the small temple left guard thought that the victory was in his hands, but who would have thought that it would be the defenders of Manabe Castle who took the initiative to retreat, wanting to lure them into danger, and then use iron cannon fire to destroy them, so he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, a vicious plan. (Like this book, please collect biquge.info) the gap between the success of the city and the dilemma of the mood, as if falling from heaven to hell, the left guard of Koji is now advancing or not, retreating and unwilling, he did not expect that the defenders of Manabe City would lose all the outer walls in order to offset the threat of the wisteria bow, and nearly half of the casualties would drag them into danger, so scheming, how not to let the left guard of Koji break out in a cold sweat. Even Katayama Moricho, who had not entered the city outside Manabe Castle, was shocked when he heard the loud sound of iron cannon shooting, he didn't expect that the defenders of Manabe Castle would have such great courage, and he would not hesitate to sacrifice nearly half of his troops to win, thinking about himself, but he didn't have the courage to use such a poisonous trick.

In the roar of iron cannons, the casualties of the small temple that had already reacted were not large, and only one or two unlucky eggs wiped their faces, but even this made most of the small temple dare not step forward, so they had to hide behind the bunker and dare not show their heads.

Originally, under the suppression of the wisteria bow, the guards in Manabe Castle did not dare to show their heads, but now it is the turn of the small temple, and it is really the thirty years of Hedong and thirty years of Hexi, and the feng shui has taken turns. The power of the iron cannon was huge, and it was lethal at seventy or eighty paces away, and now it was only forty or fifty paces away how could a sailor who did not even wear armor be able to resist it. In addition, although the projectile is not as powerful as the sharp warhead of later generations, the projectile will deform in an instant after hitting the human body and encountering resistance, forming the effect of a dummy bullet.

The power of the iron cannon is very great, especially in the place where the density is so large, the lethality formed is even more amazing, otherwise the history will not make the cavalry of the Takeda family suffer heavy losses, in fact, the power of the iron cannon in the state of skirmishers is not much stronger than the Maruki bow, but first, the sound of the iron cannon is too loud to deter the morale of many peasant soldiers, and secondly, the lethality of the enemy in front of the formation of density cannot be ignored, and there is not like the bow and arrow that requires years of training, an ordinary soldier can be pulled onto the battlefield to kill the enemy in the case of forming a scale after training for more than half a month. Of course, to form a three-stage strike and other extremely accurate tactics, training can not be ignored, but it is also much easier than training a qualified archer, which is why the iron cannon was popular in the late Warring States period, the training time is short, the deterrent power is strong, and the power is not weak.

But if the cannon is in the hands of the enemy, it is something that drives the enemy crazy and demoralizes himself. Lieutenant Kotera Zuobei hid behind a dilapidated wooden house and did not dare to look up, he glanced at the number of people lost in the three rounds of shooting just now, some choking white smoke dissipated, and what appeared in front of him was more than thirty corpses, they were lying in front of the formation, and most of the sailors who were still excitedly charging and wanted to capture Honmaru in one fell to the ground. Except for a few who crawled back after being shot in the first round, none of the wounded who fell to the ground escaped the next two rounds of cannon fire, and suffered heavy casualties. Coupled with the twenty or thirty casualties during the original siege, there are less than thirty or forty soldiers and horses left who can fight again, so they really don't have the courage to charge up now.

Kotera Left Guard's face was pale, he didn't expect Manabe Castle to be so bold, such a sharp weapon would be used after breaking through the outer city, and he didn't expect the power of the iron cannon to be so terrifying, and before he could rush to Honmaru, dozens of his companions were all killed and injured in the blink of an eye.

Katayama Moricho's face was not very good-looking, originally he still wanted to lay down Manabe Castle before Masahiro personally went into battle to show the strength of the Date army, but he didn't expect that the result would be like this, he had already entered the city, he looked at the corpses that were all over the place, and looked at the small temple with heavy casualties, and his mood was very complicated, and the expression on his face was constantly changing. He thought that if it weren't for the fact that the left guard of Koji had rushed forward to invite Gong Gong to rush forward just now, it would not have been Koji who had suffered such heavy casualties, but the elite of the Date family under his command, if the losses were so heavy, even if their father and son were deeply respected by the political balance, they would not be able to escape punishment and neglect.

Katayama Moricho is now also in a dilemma, continue to attack, Manabe Castle has the help of iron cannons, although it is difficult to attack, but if you really want to stick to this pill, it is not easy to break through, who knows the specific amount of iron cannon gunpowder in the city, if the reserve is large, even if he pulls all the hundred or so people up, it will not help. But if you retreat, it's a little unwilling.,Now only one thing left in Manabe Castle is Honmaru.,Everything else has fallen into the hands of the Date Army.,If you really retreat.,After the defenders of Manabe Castle already have such a sharp weapon of iron cannons.,It's not so simple to attack Manabe Castle again.怂

When the interruption continues, it is chaotic. Indecision will not only make you miss opportunities in the face of opportunities and success, affecting your own progress and development, but also bring you strong psychological pressure, forming a vicious circle, so that you are depressed and distressed.

Katayama Morinaga was originally a steady and resolute general, and when he thought that he could no longer capture Manabe Castle with few casualties in a short period of time, he took a deep breath and then gave the order to retreat. After hearing the order to retreat, Captain Kotera left of the guard breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the iron cannon stretched out by the Manabe Castle Honmaru, as if he wanted to keep in mind the place that caused him heavy losses, and after a long time, he reluctantly carried out Katayama Moricho's order and slowly withdrew from Manabe Castle. The Fujiki archers are the last soldiers to withdraw from Manabe Castle, and the deterrent power of the iron cannon is only able to deter the Fujiki archers, if it really happens to be counterattacked during the retreat, it is not a joke, Manabe Castle is still four or five hundred steps away from Manabe Port, and once the iron cannon shooting is formed in the open field, the casualty rate will increase.

Murakami Yoshinobu looked at the Date army that began to retreat, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the enemy finally retreated, but when he saw the guards of less than forty people in Honmaru, his mood fell to a low point again. Thinking of Murakami Takeyoshi returning to Manabe Island, his good days will be gone forever, although Murakami Keihiro and Murakami Yoshinobu are fighting for me on Manabe Island, but that's all internal matters, and they will be consistent with the outside world after they really encounter urgent matters, of course, without realizing that their own wife is lying under someone else's crotch. At the beginning of the battle, Murakami Yoshinobu disappeared without a trace, causing heavy casualties in Manabe Castle, and his face became more and more solemn. The guards of Manabe Castle didn't care how Murakami Yoshinobu thought about it and how he thought about begging for mercy from Murakami Buyoshi, and when they saw that the Date army began to retreat, they were stunned for a moment, and then burst into earth-shattering cheers.

A guard who climbed to the top of the Honmaru suddenly widened his eyes, rubbed his eyeballs carefully, and shouted loudly in disbelief: "Niyokomaru Shangshui Army Flag, Niyokomaru Shangshui Army Flag, reinforcements are coming, reinforcements from Noshima Island are coming, we are victorious, we are victorious." He was so incoherent that he almost fell from the roof with excitement and sadness, so frightened that he lay on the roof and didn't dare to move, but he still kept shouting the words of the Niyokomaru Shangshui Army Flag. The two Yokomaru Kagami Naval Flags are the unique naval flags of the Noshima Murakami family, and the Marugami Naval Banner is the unique naval flag of the Mishima Murakami Naval Army, but the addition of two white horizontal lines on the Marukami Character Family Tattoo is the banner of the Noshima Murakami Naval Army.

Hearing his shouts, more and more guards climbed onto the roof, and then saw the body of a closed ship that suddenly appeared outside the harbor, a flag fluttering in the wind on the bow of the ship, a flag that made them dream, and some even burst into tears, and cheered loudly again, and the joy from the heart was extremely released from the roar one after another.

Murakami's face changed from joy at hearing about the arrival of the Noh Island Navy to grief, a kind of extreme despair. The arrival of the Noshima Murakami Navy is a blessing for all the survivors of Manabe Castle, but it is not his gospel, and once the war spreads, his reputation and future will be completely ruined.

If it was a general who sincerely worked for the well-being of the Noshima Murakami Navy, perhaps the tragedy that followed would not have happened, Murakami Yoshinobu was not a saint, and when he saw a ship appear on the sea, he felt not joy, but despair. Although there are a lot of ships in the Noshima Murakami Naval Army, most of them follow Murakami Takeyoshi to Kyushu Fengqian, and now there are only two or three ships left in Noshima, and if they can attract one, it means that the ship on the ship has enough say in Noh Island, especially when Murakami Takeyoshi leaves.

Murakami Keihiro can ask for a ship to rescue Manabe City, Murakami's sins are clear, coupled with Murakami's grand death, even indifferent people will no longer blame him, Murakami Takeshi will definitely not blame Murakami Keihiro in order to appease the hearts of his subordinates, at least the safety of life and property will definitely be guaranteed. But the loss of Manabe Castle must have a sufficient amount of general to take responsibility, and the guilty of dereliction of responsibility Murakami Yoshinobu happened to bump into it, and if he didn't punish him, if he didn't have particularly outstanding military exploits, the fate of his scapegoat would not be able to escape.

Murakami Yoshinobu took people to the outer city, standing on the head of the city and seeing the mess in the port, their hearts were shaken, they were able to find the arrival of the ship, the landing Date army obviously found the movement earlier than them, more than half of the people had already boarded the early morning and wanted to break through, and there were about thirty or forty people left who could not board the early morning in time to retreat in the direction of the real bull nose, obviously wanting to break through there and leave on the small morning boat that broke out. The speed of the small hayaya ship is really not something that the Sekibune can catch up, and after shooting a bow and arrow into the sea from the Seki ship, he can only watch the Kohayafune leave the port.

The ship slowly approached the harbor, obviously winning the idea of defeating the thirty or forty men who had landed on the island. If a Sekibune is engaged in a battle with more than a dozen small ships at sea, it is really difficult to resist, and there is a possibility of defeat if one accidentally shuts down the ship, since the Date Army has no intention of fighting again, Sekibune has no idea of catching up, and it is right to chase and fight the remaining Date Army who have landed on Manabe Island.

Expelling the Date Army and cutting off a few more heads is already a good credit in the absence of Murakami Takeshi.

Murakami Yoshinobu's eyes lit up, and when he saw a team of people dressed as sailors dressed as Murakami Jinghiro coming down from the Guan boat, he roughly understood what had happened, and he knew why the Guan ship appeared, and it must have been the reinforcements that Murakami Jing Guang begged for. Thinking of the heavy casualties in Manabe Castle and when Murakami Takeshi would definitely not let him go, Murakami Yoshinobu shook his body involuntarily, and then raised the sword in his hand, looked back and shouted: "Brothers, the reinforcements have arrived, most of the thieves have fled, and a small number have fled, now is a good time for us to make a contribution, kill out of the city, and chase and kill the thieves with the reinforcements." ā€

Murakami Yoshinobu didn't care about contacting the Murakami Keihiro and the reinforcement general, and now the only lifeline was to kill some more heads of the Date army when the reinforcements wiped out a small part of the Date army, so as to make atonement, shouted loudly, and rushed out first. The guards behind glanced left and right, and they all burst out with eager eyes in their eyes, now that the reinforcements have arrived, most of the Date army has fled, and the victory is in hand, now is a good time to chase and fight, most of them immediately responded, shouting in unison: "Kill...... Ah......h

Murakami Yoshinobu was the first to rush out of Manabe Castle, and the guards behind him were like tigers descending from the mountain, holding their weapons high, roaring like thunder, like an avalanche, carrying the momentum of thunder, and rushed in the direction of the real bull nose without hesitation. The above is purely a literary creation, how a group of thirty or forty people can exert such a great deterrent power, just like a group of armed fighters chasing down another group of underworld members, is not much to look at, but it attracted Tsuda Soda, who was watching from the sidelines, to order to pull down the flag of the Miyoshi family and hang the small flag of the Murakami family to show innocence.

Murakami Yoshinobu was full of murderous energy, carrying a sword, and led thirty or forty defenders out of the city like wolves and tigers, and marched in the direction of the real bull. Zhengheng looked at the Murakami army who led out of Manabe Castle, shook his head slightly, and said to the soldiers beside him: "I wanted to use Murakami Jingguang to deceive Manabe Castle, but I didn't expect Manabe Castle to be so vulnerable, no, no, it's not that Manabe Castle is vulnerable, but it was Katayama Moricho and Koji Left Guard Captain who fought Manabe Castle out of real fire, otherwise they wouldn't have rashly sent troops to meet the battle without understanding the specific situation, I really don't know whether to live or die." ā€

However, Shimamasori knew the truth of some things, and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, it's not that Manabe Castle doesn't know whether to live or die, but that Manabe Castle is rash against the enemy, and the Murakami Navy of Seto Inland Sea Noh Island has always been strong, and no one will pretend to be their ships in the Seto Inland Sea, so they will definitely not suspect the origin of the ship." ā€

At the same time, Kiyokawa Atsutaro who came with him had a different opinion, and he said with a rather solemn face: "Your Highness, just now Your Majesty briefly counted the number of Date landing troops, and the losses were quite heavy, but most of them were the subordinates of the left guard of Koji, and they obviously fought a real fire in Manabe City, otherwise they would not have rushed out so shouting and killing." ā€

Masahiro narrowed his eyes slightly, he nodded slightly, and said to Atsutaro Kiyokawa and Masatoshi Shima: "Villager Keihiro is optimistic, as soon as the defenders of Manabe Castle arrived, they immediately rushed up and killed them, and then hung the flag of the Date family, and let the small hayafune surround the fleet that was watching from the wall, and it is not so easy to come and go by sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight under my nose." ā€

Shimamasatoshi and Atsutaro Kiyokawa said in unison, "Yes, Your Highness!" ā€

Shima Maori greedily glanced at the fleet of more than ten large ships, and reported in a low voice: "Your Highness, that fleet is obviously a fleet returning from Hirado, and it is full of goods from Hirado. ā€

Atsutaro Kiyokawa shook his head and said: "Your Highness, there are more than ten big ships, and there are obviously a lot of people on board, if you really fight, there will be a lot of losses, so it's better to invite them to our territory after eliminating the Murakami Navy. ā€

Neither of them considered the consequences of robbing this fleet, nor did they consider their background, anyway, on Manabe Island, once they won the victory against Murakami's navy, they had the final say on Manabe Island, and it was not so good to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

As soon as the Katsuro Shichiro Guard, who was holding Murakami Keihiro, saw that the defenders of Manabe Castle had abandoned the castle and left the city, and heard Masahiro's order, he waved his hand at the ashiki around him, and Murakami Keihiro took it to the side, and then ran towards Manabe Castle as fast as he could. Katsukuro Shichiro has become the backbone of the Date family since his brother Kakugo Hachiro won the battle merits, and this expedition has become the captain of a small group of elite soldiers, and the captain of the ashigaru of Masahiro's pro-soldier team is comparable to the generals of other troops, and the promotion speed is much faster than that of other teams, which is considered to be the descendant of the lineage.

Murakami Yoshinobu looked at the cracked chest in disbelief, and fell to the ground with two screams, blood overflowing, and he immediately died so much that he couldn't die anymore. Kakuro Shichiro Bingwei stepped forward and cut off his head, originally wanting to show off his might and shout a drama of surrender without killing, but in a blink of an eye, the defenders of Manabe Castle had already suffered heavy losses, and there were only a few left.
