Changxu City has excellent geographical advantages, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but also has a lake to get water on the spot, do not have to worry about the most feared water source problem in the cage city war, backed by mountains, in and out of the ship dependent, the enemy attacked, in the absence of enough ships, only by the defenders provoked to attack, there is no room for counterattack. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoNot to mention that although the lake is not big, it is grassy, and it is difficult for large ships to pass, so small boats add fuel tactics. The defenders were not afraid, and they were invincible.

Who would have thought that such a strong city, there were only a few sounds outside, and the sound was still a hundred miles away, and there was chaos in Changxu City, which was really unimaginable. At first, Hatakeyama Takamasa pretended to be smart, delusional to his own detriment, and gave others a handle. And then there was a time when it was supposed to be the most important thing to maintain unity, to strive for unity and work together to get through the difficult times. What should not be done is that the generation that grew up in the Warring States Period, the joys and sorrows of life, the guilty Hatakeyama Takamasa did not take the initiative decisively, he didn't know this truth, and he didn't know how to cover it up and paralyze the other party.

Inside the Nagayashi ship, the burned ship has been extinguished, Hatakeyama Takamasa's face is pale, his hands and feet tremble unconsciously, looking at the charred board ship, the air is filled with a pungent smell of burning. He knew it was over, everything was over.

The surrounding retainers and subordinates were colorless, and they stood there one by one, dazed. I don't know when, and I don't know who it is, but I took the lead in scolding the shameless scum of Naomasa Yasumi with righteous indignation, and used the most vicious language to vent the hatred in my heart.

It immediately resonated with everyone, this is a question of political correctness, if you don't scold Anmi Naomasa on the spot, what does that mean? Is it sympathetic to Anmi Naomasa's betrayal, and like him, he wants to betray Hatakeyama Takamasa and wants to rebel against Nagayashi Castle.

Just scolding Yasumi Naomasa and omitting Hatakeyama Masano, this is also out of consideration for the future, and everyone can see that Yasumi Naomasa and Hatakeyama Masanoshi betrayed Hatakeyama Takamasa and turned out of Nagayashi Castle to be weird and strange. The cronies who didn't see Hatakeyama Takamasa didn't mention the name of Hatakeyama Masano, and only mentioned Anmi Naomasa.

Everyone can see that the sky of the Hatakeyama family is about to fall. Don't think about it, don't say that Hatakeyama Takamasa and who he pursued, his retainers and subordinates have been in the dark since then, and there will never be a day, and their families and clansmen will be suppressed by new vested interests. People often say that once a son of heaven and a courtier, it is also out of political correctness, for them who follow the wrong master, they chase and fight, there is no danger, it is really a small pay and a big give, why not do it.

Nagayashi was desperate like never before, Hatakeyama Takamasa didn't roar, he was accumulating anger, and he knew that he couldn't retreat. Even if he can still climb the mountains, but in this way, he will lose the opportunity to make a comeback. Yes, he fled before the rebellion of the Youzuo religion, and the situation was very different from the last time.

Last time, even if he fled alone and died in the world, his identity and bloodline were bargaining chips. Miyoshi Chokei, who has been eyeing Hanoi and peeping at the country, is willing to pay a high price for him, and then Hatakeyama Takamasa uses the price given by Miyoshi Nagakei as a bargaining chip to go back and negotiate with the Hanoi people again, and return to Hanoi to get back everything that belongs to him. This time, looking around, it was all the world of the Date family, and no one dared to openly shelter him. He knew that once he escaped, he would never turn over.

After Hatakeyama calmed down, he began to face the reality and discuss countermeasures with his cronies. The top priority is to open the passage to the outside, defeat Naomasa Yasumi who was blocking the gate of Nagaya Castle, and regain the initiative. The second is to use all the strength at hand to strengthen the defense line of each mountain, and build the defense line of Changsu City into a solid one, waiting for the general trend of the world to change.

The first thing is the most urgent, and it is also the premise of the latter thing, if Naomasa Yasumi has been blocking the door, waiting for the arrival of the endless army of Date, it will be an impossible task to turn over. It is not possible to go straight to the waterway, and there is also a mountain trail that can be passed over the mountains.

Hatakeyama Takamasa carefully selected 600 elites from the three or four thousand defenders and personally led the army to the battle.

Since Hatakeyama Masaka betrayed, Hatakeyama Takamasa can no longer trust anyone, and who else can trust his life. What's more, Hatakeyama Takamasa also had another idea, in case the siege was not overcome, Date reinforcements arrived, and the enemy was attacked on his back. He no longer has to be trapped in a lonely city, and he can deal with it more calmly. If there is the slightest mistake, they immediately retreat and turn to fight guerrillas in various places. If you can't do it, you can also take your cronies and retainers to Suruga to take refuge in Imagawa Yoshimoto.

The castle that Naomasa Yasumi blocked outside Naokamasu Castle was actually a ditch that led to the water of the lake, and there was a drawbridge hanging from the gate, and directly opposite, a sturdy arrow tower stood in the wind, a walled building. Originally, it was an important part of Nagasu Castle, and it was temporarily named the West Building. Guarding the West Pavilion is the former Nagayashi lord Nagayajiro, after being occupied by the Hatakeyama Takamasa magpie's nest dove, he was originally unwilling in his heart, and he hit it off at the instigation of Yasumi Naomasa, and switched to Hatakeyama Masaka before the battle, and turned out of Hatakeyama Takamasa, blocking the waterway in and out of Nagayashi Castle.

After Nagayajiro introduced Hatakeyama Masano and Yasumi Naomasa to the West Building, Nagayatsujiro was a local tyrant, and Hatakeyama Masano and Yasumi Naomasa were both big names who had seen the world, and he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately gave them the best room.

Anmi Naomasa was not pretentious, he left Hatakeyama political ability, straight to the point, and said: "Now that we have blocked Nagayashi Castle, Nagayama Takamasa of Nagayama Castle must be crazy, he will definitely want to do everything possible to want us to die, we can only save ourselves." ”

Hatakeyama Masano's expression was serious and thoughtful, he knew that what Yasumi Naomasa said was true, but he hesitated a little and asked: "Misakumoru, why are we blocking Nagasu Castle, why don't we go to Kyoto together to report the Hatakeyama Takamasa rebellion to the Date family." ”

Yasumi Masano glanced at Hatakeyama Masano, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "We will suddenly run to Kyoto, even if what we say is true, but after the war, we can get something in return, I am afraid that we will be wiped out in the world with the Hatakeyama family at that time." ”

Hatakeyama Masano's face changed slightly, now he and Yasumi Naomasa are grasshoppers on a rope, and Yasumi Naomasa solemnly told him the importance of this matter, and he would not deceive him. He knew that his brother Hatakeyama Takamasa had rebelled and cut himself off from the world, so he had to take on the important task of reviving the Hatakeyama family in Kawachi. If there is no credit at all, after the pacification of Hatakeyama Takamasa, as Yasumi Naomasa said, they will not get a little reward, and it will be difficult to revive the Kawachi Hatakeyama family at that time, not to mention the revival of the Kawachi Hatakeyama family.

Anmi Naomasa looked at the thoughtful Hatakeyama Masano, he knew that Hatakeyama Masano had listened, and continued: "The current situation is like this, we will wait to contain Hatakeyama Takamasa outside Nagaya Castle, and strive to gain some combat merits in this battle. ”

Hatakeyama Masano nodded in response, "As you said." He believed the words of Naomasa Yasumi, and he knew that the only way to win this dispute was to win, not to mention that in a sense, this was a civil strife of the Hatakeyama family in Kawachi, and it was a brotherly wall caused by the difference of political opinions between the Hatakeyama Takamasa and the political brothers, and whoever could win would be able to grab the remaining strength of the Hatakeyama family in Kawachi as the foundation for the revival of the Hatakeyama family in Kawachi.

Anmi Naomasa is an ambitious person, but he also knows that he can't be a head rafter and leave the influence of traitors on the Date family, and he turned out of Nagayashi Castle not because he was disloyal to the Hatakeyama family in Kawachi, but because of the different political views between the Hatakeyama brothers, he and Hatakeyama Masano have the same political views. He needs the puppet of Hatakeyama Masano to be in front of him, but he also needs to show his hand in front of the Date family and let the Date family see that he is an important person in the Hatakeyama family, which is one of the reasons why he stayed in the West Building.

Seeing that Hatakeyama Masano agreed with his point of view, Naomasa Yasumi immediately threw out his thoughts and said, "My lord, now take advantage of the fact that Nagayashi Castle has not yet attacked, hurry up to the Ida's house in Hanoi Province, tell the people of the Date family about Nagayashi Castle, and rush back with reinforcements as soon as possible, as long as we can hold on to the West Pavilion, we will be able to get a credit for pacifying the battle of Nagayashi Castle." ”

Hatakeyama Masanoshi had no choice at all, so he could only follow the advice of Naomasa Yasumi and rush to the residence of Date at all costs. He knew that staying in the West Pavilion would face the attack of Nagayashi Castle Hatakeyama Takamasa, and if there were no reinforcements, he would die for life.

However, Hatakeyama Masano knows that Naomasa Yasumi wants to show his face in front of the Date family, but he also has the same plan, no matter how the West Pavilion guards the city, he can get a credit from it, not to mention that as long as he is the first to show his face in front of the Date family, it will be difficult for Naomasa Yasumi to realize his idea.

Hatakeyama Masano pondered for a long time, and after straightening out the relationship, he had a bottom in his heart, and he probably knew what he should do. Without any hesitation, he immediately took two attendants and quietly went from the mountain trail to Hanoi to ask for help from the garrison.

Anmi Naomasa sent Hatakeyama Masanori away, and immediately recruited his cronies and retainers, as well as Nagayajiro, and told them all the news that Hatakeyama Takamasa wanted to rebel, which immediately aroused the anger of the crowd. Everyone knows that the Date family is in full swing, and the small Nagasu City wants to rebel alone, isn't this coercing everyone to die together? Furious, all the personnel in the West Pavilion united as one to strengthen the city's defenses, believing that once the news of this place broke, the Date family would definitely send reinforcements.

The time passed to the early morning of March 29, which was already the third day of the reversal of Changsu City. Hatakeyama Takamasa led 600 elites to rest in the woods for a night after crossing the mountains and mountains, and only after recuperating their energy did they rush towards the West Pavilion. Hatakeyama Takamasa knew that time was precious, but he also knew that it would be foolish to use a tired army to attack an enemy who was ready to work and had a walled wall.

Hatakeyama Takamasa already knew that Naomasa Yasumi not only didn't go far, but also stayed in the West Pavilion, he didn't know if Hatakeyama Masaka was still in it, but his eyes were deep now, his face was pale, his expression was a little hideous, and he muttered in a low voice: "Abominable thing." ”

Above the arrow tower of the West Pavilion, a sentry rang the alarm bell and sounded the alarm: "My lord, the enemy is coming, and there are quite a few of them. The old and young women and children in the West Pavilion got ready one after another, only to see the crowd surging, and in the sun, there was a little cold light on the weapons.

It's finally here!

Seeing that Naomasa's blood was boiling, he climbed the watchtower on the suspension bridge, looked at the attacking Hatakeyama Takamasa with the banner of two taels, clenched his fists, and ordered: "No arrows are allowed without my order!" "He's waiting for the best moment, the right moment to win.

Hatakeyama Takamasa waved his command knife forward and shouted, "Rush! Saying that, the samurai who followed him led the elite Ashigaru to kill him, but Hatakeyama Takamasa did not follow, and kept swinging forward, not moving.

Hatakeyama Takamasa took the lead in firing long arrows, and while firing long arrows, he steadily advanced to the sound of drums, and the speed of the advance was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had reached a distance of forty paces. The long arrow hit the wall with a tuk-tuk sound, hitting several reckless young men.

Nagayajiro was in a hurry, and it was his people who were injured, and he shouted: "If we don't fight back, we will be shot as hedgehogs." ”

Yasumi Naomasa shook his head resolutely: "No, the number of our bows and arrows is too small, only the number of three salvos, we can't waste it, everyone pull the bowstring and hide behind the wall, waiting for my order, waiting for my order, waiting for my order." ”

Hatakeyamabe fired two rounds of long arrows, and Anmi Naomasa was full of arrows in front of him, he didn't move a step, his eyes froze, and finally shouted: "Shoot!" "At a distance of thirty or forty paces, it is a matter of blinking an eye when a long arrow hits, not to mention that more than half of the West Pavilion is close to the lake, and the only thing that can be attacked is a section of the front with a trench dug.

Unstoppable, Hatakeyama immediately shot at a group of people, to say the least, twenty or thirty people, and fired three consecutive volleys, causing forty or fifty casualties. Anmi Naomasa cheered and shouted, "Reinforcements from the Date family will arrive soon, everyone hold on." ”

Hatakeyama Takamasa knew that there was no way to retreat, he personally went into battle, wanting to capture the West Pavilion, and several salvos completely suppressed their military momentum, and they no longer dared to rush out, not to mention that they didn't hear the cheers in the West Pavilion, and they were defeated one after another under looking at each other.

Hatakeyama Takamasa wields the sword in his hand, and it is already an impossible task to recapture the West Pavilion in one fell swoop. What's more, there are wavering people in his ranks, and there are people who bewitch the people, and the undercurrent is surging. Originally, everyone thought that they represented justice and came to fight rebellion, but they didn't expect that in the end, Hatakeyama Masanoshi and Yasumi Naomasa would join the Date family, which made the doubts in their hearts infinitely magnified. Since Hatakeyama Masaka represents the Date family, then whether Hatakeyama Takamasa has betrayed the Date family.

The battle of Nishikan was at a stalemate, and Hatakeyama Masanoshi was sent to his own temple to see Masahiro, and an army of about 2,500 people was seen from afar under the leadership of Shimizu Soji. (To be continued.) )
