Hundreds of Murakami's naval forces adopted a positive attack to attack Manabe Island, and the attempt to shake Manabe Island was crushed under the perseverance of the soldiers defending the island, throwing countless rolling wood stones down, causing the Murakami naval forces to shatter their armor, break their heads, break their heads, break their limbs, and be lame, and all of them were wounded. All in all, this first attack on the island ended with a great defeat for the Murakami naval army and a great victory for the island defenders, and the Murakami naval army lost more than 30 casualties.

Unwilling to fail, Murakami Takeyoshi was still unwilling to fail after the initial defeat, and once again deployed troops and horses to attack Manabe Island, this time the attack was more fierce than the last time, this time they absorbed the lessons of the last defeat, in addition to the frontal attack, but also sent twelve elite soldiers from the direction of the Tenjin Nose to climb up with ropes, and attack in a roundabout way. However, Manabe Island is a small island, surrounded by the sea, and the island is divided into two slightly higher protrusions on the left and right, and a castle tower was built in the recess.

Although there were no city defenses built in the direction of the Tenjinbi, there was another heavy rain last night, which made the mountain road slippery and slow, and Shima Hiroshi arranged excellent shooters on one side, easily repelled the attack of Murakami's water army.

The two defeats dealt a heavy blow to the morale of Murakami's water army, and Murakami's face became as pale as Iwata Kohiro, who was physically unwell as a seasick guide, and he was now angry with Manabejima. Since he inherited the Noshima Murakami Water Army, he is full of confidence, and he is as light as playing in the pond at home, and he has never encountered an opponent, even if it is a salt-saturated water army, he has to avoid its edge, and Date Masaki has been constantly provoking him. He couldn't get off the stage.

Murakami Takeyoshi shouted: "The invincible Murakami naval army in the Seto Inland Sea." Would you be afraid of a small island of one or two hundred people? Everyone remembers. The Date's iron cannons are slow to reload, and if you get close, those bastards will be slaughtered by us! ”

He arranged the arrangement loudly, and then gathered a boatload of baked jade from the boat to transport it to the shore, and ordered Murakami to lead the way with hundreds of soldiers, and then three wrestlers each carried a baked jade into battle, followed by ten auxiliaries carrying the baked jade.

At the same time, he once again transferred twenty elites to climb the Celestial God Nose. Converge with the seven or eight elites who retreated here, and jointly form a two-sided attack on the front tower. Seeing that Murakami Takeshi was ruthless, Murakami was afraid that he would not be able to eat and walk around if he didn't show some skills, so he no longer used the small morning boat to move slowly, but used the board as a shield to knock off the bows and arrows and stones that came over, and roared and rushed towards the castle tower.

The huge roar of the iron cannon sounded again, and the twelve iron gunners in the first row opened fire in unison, and in the light of the fire and smoke, the planks soaked in the sea ships all year round had a good defense against the iron bullets. Only a few people were unlucky enough to suffer some minor injuries, which caused the Murakami army to rush to the front of the castle tower.

Lux shook the roasted jade with a rope. After waving it four or five times, he threw it towards the castle tower, one of which obviously did not grasp the height, and hit the castle tower at once, and with a bang, smashed open a huge depression, and the sawdust and gravel fell one after another, and hit the heads of the Murakami naval soldiers who were covering in front, covering their vision at once, making them miserable.

The other two did their job well and were thrown into the tower. The two roasted jades exploded in the castle tower, and with a roar, the five iron gunners who were filling and loading the ammunition were killed, and the backs of the two iron gunners exploded so that their brains and blood were splashed, and their bodies fell to the ground one by one, and the other three people each held their bloody arms and howled. A thick smell of blood mixed with the stench of feces and water, mixed with the saltiness of the sea breeze, spread in the castle tower, and everyone wanted to vomit.

The Murakami Navy under the city screamed at the same time, they all beat their chests and scolded, they were all very angry, and they didn't dare to rub their eyes, but the auxiliaries of the Murakami Navy behind were cheering, busy transporting the baked jade to the three wrestlers, as long as they were delivered four or five times, the city tower would be self-defeating.

Dao Yili's face was as calm as water, but his heart was actually very anxious, three baked jades hit the city tower crumbling, and lost five iron gunners and more than ten ashigaru at once, and a few more projections, I am afraid that he can only retreat to the main city, and even the main city will not be able to block the attack of the baked jade.

Shima Yili suddenly shouted loudly: "Murakami is grand, remember whether the officers and soldiers defend the island Yili, let you take a good look at my bow and arrow today!" As he spoke, he grabbed a wooden arrow, sparked a spark on the stone, pulled up the Maruki bow, stood on top of the castle tower, and fearlessly shot a rocket at the back of the wrestler.

Murakami raised his head in amazement, looking at the shadows on the castle tower, he suddenly remembered the follower who followed Murakami Yoshiya and Yoshiyi father and son back then, and he didn't expect that it would be his acquaintance who beat them so badly today.

The rocket seemed to be slow but was actually shooting quickly behind the wrestler, and Murakami turned around and shouted, "Block it!" Most of the soldiers in front were obscured by sawdust and gravel powder, and the auxiliaries behind were still cheering.

The rocket hit the basket full of baked jade, and the fuse on the baked jade creaked, and one of the auxiliaries who was just about to hold the baked jade to the wrestler screamed and fled outside, driving the footsteps of the others, but no one could escape the speed of the fuse.

"Boom" a basket of baked jade explosion triggered the explosion of the other two baskets of baked jade, the ground in front of the city tower shook the mountain, causing a series of explosions, fragments of flesh and blood flew sideways, heavy casualties, blood and limbs flowed to the ground. Murakami's ears buzzed, and he looked at the scene behind him in disbelief.

Shima Ori was almost shaken off the castle tower, but fortunately, the two ashigaru eyes behind him quickly grabbed his belt. Dao Yili took a deep breath and shouted, "Open the wooden door and kill me out!" As he spoke, he drew his sword and jumped down from the castle tower towards the wooden gate.

The wooden door opened, and Shima Ily took the lead, bravely taking the lead in killing out, and the more than thirty ashigaru behind were inspired by Shima Hiroshi's bravery, roared angrily, and each rushed out of his hidden place, holding two spears and following behind him.

With a single sword, Shima Ori cut off the head of an enemy soldier who rushed to the bottom of the castle. The rest of the ashigaru stabbed the dusty and panicked enemy soldiers with their spears. Murakami solemnly shouted, "Withdraw! Fall back! He then fled to the shore with a few guards in the muddy blood depression, trying to escape Manabe Island on a small morning boat.

The more than 30 soldiers of the Murakami Navy in front of the castle tower who had no time to escape were immediately cut off by the soldiers with high morale, and Shima Ori stood on the shore, holding a blood-dripping sword, pointing to the small hayafune that had fled into the desert, and shouted loudly: "Murakami Buji, remember me, Shima Hiroshi?" ”

As he spoke, he said to the leader of the Ashigaru squad who followed behind him, "How are the casualties?" ”

The leader of the ashigaru squad replied: "Lord Hui, seven people were killed in battle, and fourteen people were seriously injured. ”

Dao Yili nodded slightly, and said to the others: "A few of you go back, tell the soldiers, use weapons and medicine as sparingly as possible, don't waste them, and cut off all the enemy's heads, salt, and after the battle, I will ask you for credit." The corpses of their companions were placed in the main tower, and the corpses of the enemies were thrown into the sea. ”

Everyone agreed, saluted, and hurriedly conveyed Dao Yili's request.

Murakami Takeyoshi squinted his eyes at the bloody battlefield, looked at the Takeji Feather Flying Sparrow flag fluttering on Manabe Island, and heard that the defender under his command was Noshima Murakami's rebel general Shima Mori, and suddenly said: "This Shima Ori commander is really good, we underestimated him in the past." ”

Murakami, who fled back to the main ship, solemnly changed his military uniform, spit out a mouthful of bloody smear, came to Murakami Takeshi's side, bowed his head and said, "Lord, I failed." ”

Murakami Takeyoshi didn't blame Murakami for solemnity, but looked at Manabejima, shook his head slightly, and said: "I originally wanted to use force to force Manabe Island to submit, but now it seems impossible, uncle, I will give you fifteen Sekibune and twenty Kozawa boats and three hundred soldiers to sweep the Kasaoka Islands such as Kitagijima and Shiraishi Island, and make as much trouble as possible." The first is to shift the attention of the Date army to this place, so that Date Masaki thinks that we will attack the main position of the god side from the mouth of the Ashida River; Second, to be a good defender for us, I have a bad premonition. ”

Murakami was stunned for a moment, and immediately responded: "Yes!" ”

Shima Ori looked at the Murakami Navy who was gradually moving away, frowned, and said to his soldiers: "Closely monitor the movement of enemy ships, rest according to the rotation system, and beware of the enemy coming to attack the west!" "Yes!" The people obeyed and departed. It's just that Dao Yili is watching quietly.

Murakami Takeyoshi gave an order, and the Noh Island Murakami Navy was divided into two teams, one team led by Murakami to sweep the Kasaoka Islands, due to the inconvenience of communication on Manabe Island, it was obvious that it had also fallen in the eyes of outsiders, and many islands outside the mouth of the Ashida River had erected the banner of Marukami, and it was swallowed up by the Noshima Murakami Navy in a few days.

The urgent documents were sent to the main camp of the key mountain of the gods, and then transferred to Koyama Castle, and the wails of the dozens of naval forces that had fallen on the Date family on the islands filled the lines, and Murakami Takeyoshi came, filling the coast of Sanbi with the fury of revenge, threatening the hinterland of the Date army at all times.

What exactly does Murakami want to do? Zheng Heng looked at more than ten emergency documents, and muttered expressionlessly: "Do you want to land at the mouth of the Luda River?" For the first time, he felt a hint of hesitation about the decision he had made.

Noyama Yosaki suddenly asked, "Do you want to mobilize the peasants and soldiers to enrich the main formation of the Shenbian Vital Mountain?" (To be continued......)
