Mt. Yasaka, where Toyama Castle is located, is actually not tall, and it is low compared to the mountain castles that are all over Bi Chugoku and Bizen Province, and it cannot be compared with the first-class mountain castles such as Matsuyama Castle, but its geographical location is extremely special, it is located on the Sanyo Road from Bizen Province to Bi Chugoku must pass through, in the future, due to the rebuilding of Okayama Castle by the Ukita Naojia family, the status of Toyama Castle has weakened, but now the stone mountain castle with the height of the Golden Light Sect is still a small city, and Toyama Castle overlooks Ifuku, Mitsu-gun, Bizen Province, It was an important pillar of the most fertile land of the Matsuda clan, the former overlord of Nishibi. Even if the Ukita family rebuilt Okayama Castle in the future, the position of the lord of Toyama Castle would be assumed by his most trusted brother Ukita Tadashi, which is enough to explain the importance of Toyama Castle, and it is precisely because of this that Mashiro will be excited when he hears what the people will do under the pouring rain.

However, even if Mt. Yasaka is short, Toyama Castle can no longer be compared to other mountain castles, and its elevation is 131 meters high. It is too dangerous to climb the cliff under the rain that has not abated at all, even the elite soldiers do not dare to attack rashly in such bad weather, the low mountain more than 100 meters high, no matter how flat the terrain is, the slightest carelessness will fall to pieces. Among them, there are less than a few dozen people who can be called elite, and the rest, plus some bandit thugs and a few unsatisfactory water thieves, may be able to move up the slippery mountain road step by step, but most of the team are timid farmers like Uncle Sukeshiro's nephew. They were originally driven out, and if they want morale, they don't necessarily have to have a lot of morale, and they don't necessarily have to be able to do much, and the plundering body consumption along the way is too great, and the heavy rain is pouring down. In this case, you have to climb Yasaka Mountain, and after climbing the mountain, you have to face the Toyama Castle guards who are waiting for work, and you can only lose your life in vain.

Ueno Lund also had to do it as a last resort, how could he not know the combined strength of the leaders under his command, even if he was publicly elected as the big leader, but if he could be publicly promoted as the big leader, he could also be ousted from power. But he knew that he knew that in fact, he was more interested in cutting down bamboo forests and building bamboo rafts to cross the river and attack Kibitsu Shrine before the water rose. Although Kibitsu Shrine was also built between the mountains and forests, it was not as strong as Toyama Castle, and it was not built on the top of the mountain, but at the foot of the mountain. The walls are not very high. With a slight attack, you will definitely be able to achieve a big victory, and wait for the flood to pass. When the time comes, you can directly deter Takamatsu Castle, push the Date family into the water, and retreat to obtain the materials in Kibitsu Shrine to survive the famine.

It's just that his ideas are wonderful. However, an important reality was in front of him, the heavy rain had a tendency to fall heavier and heavier, and if the river could not cross the river when the bamboo forest was cut down, he would not have done useless work, and he would have spent a lot of money on bamboo rafts. The other leaders were all caught up in this problem, so they set their sights on Toyama Castle. According to their ideas, Toyama Castle is an important branch of the Matsuda clan, and there must be a large amount of money and grain hidden in the city, which is enough to make up for the losses of their expeditions.

Ueno Delong didn't know what the leaders under his command were thinking, but now that the arrow had to be sent, he could only hope that the defenders of Toyama Castle would let go of his surprise attack, and he could only hope for the will of heaven. Heavy summer rain falls and it is uncomfortable. But it didn't necessarily mean that it was cold, but it was very uncomfortable all over his body, if it weren't for the chill from the blade in his hand, I was afraid that he would be unable to stand it immediately, he gritted his teeth with a wooden face. Apparently he was a little angry. Yes, anger and disgust, from the bottom of his heart he felt disgust at this battle and fight that should not have happened now. He thought that this occasion could have been avoided, and that the siege was not what he was expecting.

In fact. Siege warfare is not something that everyone likes to see, and even brave and skilled generals will frown and get tired of it when they encounter the time-consuming and labor-intensive warfare of siege warfare. What's more, there are too many cities in the Wa Kingdom, often within a few miles can see several cities, not to mention the mountainous areas such as Gujibei Kingdom, almost every mountain with a little reputation has a Qizi, there must be a city on the mountain with a little plain under the mountain, Bei China claims to have 500 cities, in fact, according to the number of cities that Zhengheng now knows, it can roughly reach more than 570, and nearly 200 have disappeared in the long river of history. More than 100,000 stones of Bei China actually has more than 770 large and small cities, and the cities of Bizen are not too much, so many cities are densely scattered in a small country is so spectacular, so that every hero who wants to unify the world needs to pay the time and energy of several generations. The unreasonable rise of political balance and the amount of energy paid are a bit unbelievable, and others can't learn what they want to learn, which also makes many people even more envious and jealous.

Regardless of whether Bei China has 770 castles, and the castles of Bizen Province are not too much, how important is the role of Toyama Castle in it, anyway, today a group of people led by Ueno Delong are climbing towards the head of Toyama Castle, they don't know whether the people in the city are waiting for work, and they don't know whether life and death are in an instant, they have only one goal, climb the city walls, kill into the city, sleep well, eat a hot and full meal, the goal is so simple, However, it required them to pay with their lives to accomplish this simple task.

The life of the troubled times of the Warring States period is the most worthless, walking in the front is a part of the slightly elite bandits plus the water thieves who can't be on the table, followed by most of the farmers, and the last is a slightly decent ground servant with a blade, mostly a ground servant from the Kurashiki area, and with them there are more than a dozen ronins in bamboo pockets, Ueno Delong is carrying a knife in one hand, climbing with the other, and climbs up without hesitation with a cold face. Although his face was a little pale and bloodless under the rain, he did not pause or hesitate at all.

Toyama Castle is still as quiet as the mountain, the guards on the head of the city and the city wall seem to have disappeared to avoid the heavy rain, the banner on the city head has also been blown into a roll because of the rain, the sky is cloudy, and the sky has sunk early, the leading bandits and water thieves finally climbed the city after paying the price of several people, looking at the wall of the city as high as two canes, they took out the bamboo ladder that had been prepared and put it under the city wall, wanting to climb up. Ueno Tokulong saw three bamboo ladders to ride, as long as a few people went up to grab the checkpoint and opened the wooden door, they could directly rush into the first wooden door. This was the typical siege tactics of the Wa Kingdom at that time, and it was often necessary to pay a heavy price for fighting for a small gate, which is why the siege of the Wa Kingdom took several months or even longer to win. There are generally two ways to siege the city, one is to storm and pay a heavy price to not necessarily achieve the final victory, and the other is to besiege and trap the city, which is the latter kind of popular in the Warring States period, which is why the number of castles has surged.

Ueno Delong suddenly saw that it was uncomfortable, and a group of people set fire to Da'an Temple today, even the stupid guards knew that there was a group of enemies living outside Toyama Castle, and it was impossible to let people in so simply and directly, and it was even impossible to even let the sentry out, he was also a lord who owned several castles, and knew the methods of guarding some castles, and knew that Toyama Castle could not be so lax, so he thought, although there was still darkness behind the castle walls, and he couldn't see anything clearly, But faintly, I could perceive several rows of black figures standing somewhere.

Ambush! Ueno Tokulong obviously saw that this was a trap set up by Toyama Castle, and suddenly raised his sword and shouted: "Kill! "He knows that this is not the time to retreat, once he retreats under the walls of Toyama Castle, there is only a dead end, and once he retreats, it may lead to the collapse of the crowd, don't forget it, most of the crowd are farmers, if they win, it is good to say, once they fail, it will cause a big collapse, and the forces they have gathered together will be wiped out in an instant, and there may be a chance to win only a battle." Kill! With Ueno Delong's shouting of killing, sweat stains on their foreheads fell together with the rain, and at the same time they shouted loudly, holding swords, guns, swords, and halberds to climb the bamboo ladder like a whirlwind to disrupt the ambush in one fell swoop.

"Archer, shoot!" A strong voice sounded in the darkness, and immediately hundreds of footlights stepped forward to bend the bow and buckle the arrow, raised their right arms left and right, and shot out of the city wall with the bow, and instantly fell down more than a dozen people in a wail, and the unfortunate thing was that a crowd holding the bamboo ladder shot a bruise all over the body, and some of the people who leaned on a little bit all trembled and wanted to hide, and the thief ronin who climbed halfway suddenly felt that his body was hanging in the air. Originally, there were two guards each holding a push rod to push open the bamboo ladder, originally holding the bamboo ladder of a crowd is to suppress the push rod, now a crowd of dead and wounded people below escaped, the push rod is easy to get, three bamboo ladders fell, and there was a burst of chaos, crushing several people.

Ueno Tokulong saw that the bamboo ladder was tilted, and knew that if he could not immediately attack the city and break the first wooden gate, the balance of victory would be farther and farther away, and he didn't care about commanding the battle, so he inserted the sword into the scabbard and handed it to his attendants, pulled out the wakicha and bit it tightly with his mouth, took a step back, and then rushed straight towards the city wall, and when he arrived at the city wall, he suddenly climbed up with his hands and feet, and rushed up directly with three steps and two feet, without waiting for the guards who were shooting arrows to react in amazement, The wakicha in his mouth was already in his hand, and he directly cut off half of a person's bamboo pocket, scratched his neck, and blood splattered out.
