Murakami Takeyoshi heard the news that Murakami Yoshishige was in prison and couldn't extricate himself and urgently needed rescue, and heard that the Fujido Strait was blocked by more than ten locks of fireships and was difficult to break through, so he immediately said viciously: "Bastard! "Such an obvious change that anyone would panic.

Murakami Takeshi is worthy of being the strongest pirate among the heroes of the Warring States period of the Wa Kingdom, and his instincts in naval battles can be said to be tall among the dwarves in the Wa Kingdom, and he quickly calmed down, and it seems that Date Masahiro set a trap in Kojima Bay from the beginning.

A retainer said miserably: "Lord, hurry up!" If you don't go again, once the tide recess, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult, break through the wider Kojima Strait, and join Murakami Takemitsu-sama. Although he knew that the Kojima Strait might also be blocked, the Fujido Strait had been blocked by shipwrecks, and if he wanted to leave before the tide receded, he had no choice but to force a breakthrough through the Kojima Strait.

Murakami Buji didn't know that the situation was urgent and he was not allowed to think about it, so he said miserably: "Order, the whole army will turn to the southeast and forcibly break through from the Kojima Strait, quickly!" He glanced back at Yoshige Murakami, who was still desperately resisting, and regretted it slightly.

As soon as time passed, dawn broke through the dark blockade, and a bright light rose from the top of the mountain, instantly illuminating the whole world. In the early autumn morning, there was still some heating in the breeze, so that the people on the battlefield did not feel a trace of discomfort.

Murakami Takeyoshi looked back, and all kinds of large and small ships behind him were in chaos, and the ships and flags seemed to have filled the entire Kojima Bay, making it difficult to turn around. But if you count it carefully. The number of ships did not actually lose much. Due to the fact that the personnel could not get back on board for a while. It also made the ship much lighter, and the draft was much smaller, but in this way, the ships that wanted to evacuate were suddenly blocked in Kojima Bay and could not extricate themselves.

Murakami Takeshi secretly hated that he was too greedy for merit this time and fell for such a simple plan. Date Masahiro's navy is weak, and with the strength in his hands, even if he adds the salt-saturated navy that does not work hard, it is impossible to achieve a decisive victory in the Seto Inland Sea, and only by introducing Murakami Takeyoshi into Kojima Bay, which is like a belly, with a large tip at both ends and a large middle, can he take advantage of it. The Fujido Strait was no longer as important as it was during the Genpei War. At low tide, the road is even more exposed, small boats may be able to pass through the narrow strait, large ships can run aground, and now there are more than a dozen sunken ships on the strait, even if you want to force a breakthrough, it is difficult to make a trip.

The situation is very bad! Once the tide recedes, Kojima Bay will form backwater pools, and the ships will be completely stranded in the quagmire and unable to move.

Murakami Bukit looks out on the shore. Densely packed with colorful flags waving, I felt quite uneasy when I heard the sound of cheers. Seeing the riots of the ships around him, he hurriedly ordered: "The front team will open the way, and the whole army will set up a formation, and the long snake formation will rush out towards the Kojima Strait!" Only by rushing out of here can we survive. ”

The Fujido Strait is blocked, the Kojima Strait is also in crisis, between the narrow straits, the only formation that can be laid down is the long snake formation, the long snake formation is originally heavy is the head and tail echo, the enemy attacks the front formation, then the back formation from the opponent's mid-belly, and vice versa, if the opponent from their own mid-belly bursts, you can also attack the opponent from the front and rear formations at the same time, but in such a bay, it is impossible to take care of the head and tail echo, and the flexibility seems to be slow and abnormal.

Murakami Takeshi also understands that the huge long snake formation can only become the enemy's arrow target, but for the Noshima Murakami naval army to rush through the narrow strait, the only thing that can be used is the long snake formation, and there is no other formation that can be used.

Murakami Takeshi kept urging and shouting, commanding the large and small ships to slowly form a long snake formation, because there were too many ships, more than ten ships in front formed a long snake formation, and when they arrived at the back, they were crowded together, waiting for the advance in front, and then followed one by one, the anxious Murakami Takeshi was sweating profusely, but there was nothing to be done.

On the mountain of Sawada Mingzenji Temple in Shangdao County, Masahiro was sitting on top of the maza in front of the battle, chatting about the chaotic Noshima Murakami naval army in Kojima Bay, his eyes flashed coldly, and he ordered: "Taoshan Masayori and Katayama Moricho, you two each lead 1,500 elite soldiers to attack the enemy troops on the shore from the outside to the inside from the east and west, and the enemy can be allowed to surrender and end the battle before noon." ”

Tao Shan Masanori and Katayama Moricho glanced at each other, moved slightly, and stepped forward to worship: "Obey, lord!" With that, he left the mountain city of Mingchan Temple, and each led 1,500 elite soldiers to advance towards their own goals and went to attack the Great Inner Army.

Noyama Masatomo didn't expect Murakami Buyoshi to really rush into Kojima Bay, but he couldn't help but be moved, looking at Masahiro as if he had seen a god, even Noyama Masaki was like this, not to mention the others, looking at Masahiro's eyes full of awe.

Noyama Masaki suddenly saw that the water army of Noshima Murakami was in a position and wanted to break through, and hurriedly asked, "Lord, the big fish wants to run." ”

Zheng Heng smiled slightly, got up casually, took two steps forward, clapped his hands, and two attendants had already lifted one side of the screen to the center of the big tent, and hung a map of mountains, rivers and rivers on the screen, on which the topographic map of Kojima Bay was clearly drawn.

Zhengheng walked slowly to the screen, then pointed to the screen and said: "I have arranged many dangers in Kojima Bay, once Murakami Takeshi is trapped, if he wants to break through, he will not be able to annihilate his entire army, and he will have to lose a lot, and he will never be able to turn over." ”

Ishikawa Hisataka stepped forward and asked respectfully, "My lord, please also give me advice, so that the ministers and others can also see the world." ”

Zhengheng smiled and said: "There are two exits to Kojima Bay, one is the Fujido Strait, the other is the Kojima Strait, Murakami Takeshi wants to surprise us, we can only take the Fujido Strait, the Fujido Strait is narrow and shallow, if you want to pass from the Fujido Strait, the speed will inevitably not be very fast, and you will inevitably choose the night when the moon is dark and the wind is high, either the end of the month or the beginning of the month, so recently I deliberately transferred from Yukiyama Castle to Mingzenji Mountain." Once attacked, the Nojima Murakami Navy will inevitably panic, the only way to break out quickly is the best policy, if you want to break out, you can only take two straits, now the Fujido Strait has blocked the channel with more than ten sunken ships, and the Noshima Murakami Navy can only go through the Kojima Strait, hum, the Kojima Strait is wide, but it is impossible to use the strategy of the sunken ship, but I used something better to serve them. In ancient times, there were three kingdoms of Wuyan iron rope across the river, today I also have a copper rope across the sea, but to see if Murakami Buji can break out, as long as the Noh Island Murakami water army is blocked to the west of the sun, once the tide recess, they can only be trapped on the big ship. ”

Zheng Heng suddenly said, "Is the bamboo raft ready?" ”

Noyama Masato replied and said: "I have already prepared, I have set up five hundred bamboo rafts, and I can use them as soon as the tide recess, but the minister is still a little worried about whether Ge Long Hengxiu and Shima Masato can block the desperate Noshima Murakami water army." ”

Zhengheng turned back to Akagi Takao and said, "Akagi, tell you, how many copper cables have we installed in the Kojima Strait?" ”

Akagi Takao replied: "Yes, my lord, no more, no less, a total of twelve copper ropes, and fifteen large catapults were also arranged in the mountain god Yamazaki, and a small castle was built on Kokushi Island, with five catapults and a hundred iron cannons. ”

Murakami Yoshihide, the ship general who rushed to the forefront, had already rushed to a distance of hundreds of zhang away from Kokushima Island, and Murakami Yoshihide saw a castle towering on Kokushi Island, and hurriedly urged: "Avoid Kokushima, rush through the middle of the strait, hurry, don't stop." ”

The lookout suddenly shouted, "Head, there are many small boats in front of you, blocking the way." ”

Murakami Yoshihide was busy standing at the bow of the boat, looking at the sea in front of him, and sure enough, there were small boats with no rules to speak of, his eyes narrowed, the draft of these small boats was very heavy, and he asked the deputy who was following him, "Can you go around?" ”

The ship's mate was an old sailor, glanced at the small boat every five or six zhang in front of him, shook his head, and said: "If you want to avoid the past, the only way to go is to go along the coast, but you see, the small string of islands, the mountains and gods, the situation is not optimistic!" ”

Yoshihide Murakami gritted his teeth and shouted, "Bump into it." Turning back to the flag bearer behind him, he shouted, "Flag the ship behind and follow us." ”

Murakami Yoshihide stood at the bow of the boat, looking indomitable, only to hear the sound of "bang", his body involuntarily flew out, fell into the sea, and floated on the surface of the water, and suddenly saw his own car rushing between the two small boats, but the two small boats did not disperse because they were knocked away, but slammed into the hull of the closed boat, crashed into a big hole, and the cold sea water poured into it from the middle of the mouth.

Murakami Yoshihide looked at the tilted ship with a shocked face, ignoring the icy seawater, and hurriedly swam to one of the small boats to avoid the whirlpool caused by the wreck, but swam to the side of the boat, he touched the cold thing, touched it for a while, and said in amazement: "Copper rope, it's copper rope." ”

Several ships were affected by disasters one after another, and Murakami Takeyoshi discovered the mistake in front at the same time, and heard the description of Murakami Yoshihide, who was rescued, and knew the situation of the Noshima Murakami Water Army, so he smiled instead of anger: "Date Zhengheng, it's good, it's really yours." ”

It's too late to regret it, and the only thing that can be done now is to break through, regardless of sacrifice. Murakami Buyoshi immediately shouted loudly: "Send a small boat, cut the copper rope, move the boat, quickly, be sure to open a channel before the tide goes out." ”

With a loud bang, a column of water rose up beside Murakami Buji, splashing all the fishy sea water on his body, not the sound of hitting a boat, but the stones from the shore. (To be continued......)
