The Wei army's offensive was extremely fierce, and the Yamatai army only felt a heavy pressure, and the air in their lungs seemed to be squeezed out.
At the same time, Asai Nagamasa, who rushed to the east city gate, was shocked to find that the east gate had been greatly opened, and more than 1,000 people on his side were fighting with hundreds of black brocade people.
These brocade men are extremely ruthless in their swordsmanship, and they are not afraid of death, just when Asai Nagamasa arrived here, he saw a brocade man who actually killed several soldiers of the Evil Horse Taiwan Army before he died, although these brocade men were only a few hundred, but they had an absolute advantage.
Asai Nagamasa didn't have time to think about it, so he led thousands of personal guards and reserves into battle, and as soon as the battle began, Asai Nagamasa experienced the opponent's fierce combat effectiveness to the extreme, and Asai Nagamasa, who asked himself about martial arts, couldn't help but be shocked.
Nearly 5,000 soldiers of the Yamatai Army launched a counterattack under the leadership of Asai Nagamasa, and gradually recovered the situation by virtue of the advantage of numbers, but the soldiers of the Wei Army, who were not afraid of death, held this important place in the tragic battle that almost died together.
As time passed, Asai Nagamasa gradually became anxious, and the cavalry of the Wei army would arrive at any moment.
The red-eyed Asai Nagamasa rushed to the front with a spear, and with great effort he killed a brocade-clothed man, but before he could slow down, another obstacle knife whistled and slashed.
Asai Nagamasa returned the gun to separate the obstacle knife. Pierced into the chest of the brocade-clothed man, but he didn't expect the brocade-clothed man in front of him to be killed to hold his spear violently with his left hand. Then he roared, and the right hand obstacle knife slashed down at Asai Nagamasa's head.
Asai Nagamasa is all dead. Subconsciously abandoned the gun and rolled on the spot, almost at the same time, the blade of the barrier knife went to sweep against Asai Nagamasa's head, and a few wisps of head fluttered down.
Asai Nagamasa, who was lucky enough to escape, has a cold sweat overflowing on his back.
Thousands of soldiers of the Yamatai Army continued to fight back with difficulty against those brocade-clothed men who were stubbornly guarding the city gate, and they saw that the city gate was about to return to their hands.
However, at this moment, a sharp whistling sounded near the left. The brocade-clothed people who were struggling to support couldn't help but shout excitedly, and then the leader let out a whistling sound, and the remaining brocade-clothed people quickly exited the city gate hole and flashed to both sides.
Followed by. Just before the Evil Horse Taiwan Army could react, they saw a sonorous iron horse roaring.
All the officers and men of the Yamatai Army couldn't help but change their faces drastically, and Asai Nagamasa shouted at the top of his throat, but the panicked Yamatai soldiers did not react to his order, some panicked and rushed towards the Wei army's iron cavalry, and some turned around and ran, and the scene was very chaotic.
The Wei army's iron cavalry roared into the chaotic Yamatai army, and the hoof and knife slash swept by, and the chaotic Yamatai army fell down in an instant like a seedling in the wind.
The Wei army's iron cavalry defeated the thousands of evil horses and Taiwanese troops at the east gate in one go. Immediately, they split up and launched a swift raid on the other three gates.
In a moment, the Evil Horse Taiwan army of the three gates was all in chaos, and as the three gates were opened, the main force of the Wei army swarmed into the city. The Yamatai army completely collapsed.
Half an hour later, Gan Ning climbed the northern wall of the fortress, at this time. The fortress had fallen silent, and some Wei foot soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield.
A brocade robe climbed the northern city wall. came to Gan Ning and reported: "Jinyi Wei Qianhu Liu Meng has seen the general!" ”
Gan Ning turned around and patted Liu Meng's shoulder sharply. I couldn't help but praise: "You guys are really good!" If it weren't for you, our army would still be fighting with the Yamatai people now! By the way, how did you sneak into the fortress? ”
Liu Meng smiled indifferently: "It's just some of our Jinyiwei's little skills, not enough to worry about!" ”
"How many men did you lose in this battle?" Gan Ning asked.
A hint of imperceptible heartache flashed in Liu Meng's eyes, and he replied: "Nearly three hundred of my five hundred people have been killed!" ”
Gan Ning couldn't help frowning, patted Liu Meng's shoulder, and said, "You guys go to Yamatai City to repair!" ”
Liu Meng's eyes couldn't help but flash with gratitude, and he clenched his fists with a determined expression and said: "General, we are the best soldiers in the empire, and we will never back down under any circumstances!" ”
Gan Ning looked at Liu Meng for a moment, only to see that his eyes were full of high-spirited fighting intent, Gan Ning couldn't help but nodded, laughed, and said in a proud voice: "Okay!" General Ben appreciates you! Go down and rest, there's a task, I'll give the order!" ”
Liu Menghong promised and retreated.
A moment after Liu Meng left, Gan Ning's deputy general Sun Tao came to Gan Ning and reported: "General, the casualties have been counted!" ”
"How?"
"Our army suffered more than 1,000 casualties, of which more than 900 were killed, while the enemy suffered more than 7,000 casualties, of which nearly 5,000 were killed, and almost all the rest were captured!"
Gan Ning nodded faintly and ordered: "All the wounded soldiers stay, you lead three thousand foot soldiers to stay here to take care of the prisoners, and the rest of the soldiers will follow me to advance towards Mount Yuyue!" ”
Sun Tao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and asked, "General, don't you want to go before dinner?" ”
Gan Ning shook his head, "Time is tight!" Grandpa Gan doesn't want to be preempted by those turtle grandsons and let the soldiers nibble on the road! By the way, is there any news of General Miaocai? ”
Sun Tao shook his head, "No." ”
Gan Ning hummed noncommittally and motioned for Sun Tao to go down and give orders.
About half an hour later, Gan Ning led an infantry army of about 24,000 cavalry to march towards Mount Yuyue, which was located more than 200 miles northeast of Qingchuan Fortress.
Mt. Ontake is a majestic 3,000-meter-long mountain in the middle of Honshu Island in Yamadai Province, formed by a volcanic eruption, and is located at the junction of Nagano and Gido prefectures.
At present, there are only 10,000 soldiers here, and these soldiers are new troops who have just been recruited, and their combat effectiveness is extremely poor, and the leader of the army will be the lunge Entaro who is quite trusted by Himiya Saichiro, although this guy is quite brave, but he is just a brave and unscrupulous reckless man, and he likes to fight with others.
At the same time that Gan Ning led more than 20,000 horses to Mount Ontake, Koya Saichiro led an army of nearly 100,000 towards Mount Ontake.
The two armies were like two dragons advancing towards each other at high speed.
"King, urgent military situation!" A scout rushed to Ichiro Himiya to report.
"Say!"
"Two days ago, the Wei army raided the Qingchuan Fortress, and the Qingchuan Fortress was lost!" Ichiro Hima couldn't help but be surprised, and some of the generals beside him exclaimed.
Beiya Zuoichiro turned his head and glared at the strange screaming guy, and said in a deep voice: "Qingchuan Fortress is lost, and the next target of the Wei army must be Mount Ontake!" Order all armies to march towards Mt. Ontake! ”
"Hey!" The generals agreed together, and then rushed to their respective armies one after another.
Shichichiro looked at the south and muttered something. (To be continued.) )
