Chapter 772 Blood-stained Zichuan

On the second day after the Luo family launched a siege against Okura Castle, Sugi Takayaki and Sugishiki, who were originally in Okura Castle, were both ready to continue to face the fierce siege of the Luo family, but suddenly found that in the next two days, the Luo family's army did not attack the city except for continuing to siege Okura Castle.

Although the Luo family turned to launch a harassment war against Okura Castle at night, at least the defenders in the city no longer had to engage in a fierce battle with the Luo family directly, so everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Just as the defenders in the city relaxed, on the morning of the fourth day when the Luo family army besieged Okura City, the Luo family suddenly launched a siege against Okura City. However, compared with the last attack, the Luo family army launched a new way of attacking this time. They did not take the method of climbing the city walls in the sea of ​​people to attack the city, but carried out a large shield made of wet branches and trunks to resist the attack of the bow and arrows on the city, and then quickly approached the city gate.

"Hurry, boil water and burn them to death." Seeing this, Sugichi, who was located above the city head near the Shushou Gate, saw this. Although he didn't know what the Luo family army was going to do under these shields, he immediately felt something bad in his heart, so he immediately ordered.

Ordinary arrows, stones, squats and other city defense weapons obviously could not cause too much damage to the Luo family soldiers under these shields, but the turbid oil in the city was basically used up, so he had to temporarily instruct personnel to boil water and prepare to use boiling water as the city defense weapon.

It was obviously too late to boil water now. I saw this huge "shield" of the Luo family quickly approaching the door of the shaved hand, and then piled bags of things next to the door. The last standing desk directly ignited the ignition line and hid directly under the huge "shield".

After the ignition line was ignited, a stream of blue smoke came out. Then there was a "boom" and a loud bang sounded at the hand-squeezing door.

"Boom!" Before Sugishigeki on the top of the city could figure out what was going on, an almost identical loud noise came from the Dashou Gate to the west. Two loud noises almost shocked the entire Kokura Castle. Some of the guardian soldiers in Kokura Castle were even scared and sat directly on the ground.

These things that made a loud "bang" sound were naturally simple explosive packs temporarily created by the Luo family in the past two days. Since this time, all engineering weapons, gunpowder and other materials were prepared to be transported by water. (They are not carried with the army mainly to speed up the marching speed and allow the army to pass through the territory of the Aso family quickly. At the same time, lightning attacks were launched on the Fengqian area. In order to increase the speed, this time the army even carried only enough food and grass for five days to eat. That is, if the supplies transported by the Ming Japanese navy had not arrived yet, then everyone, including Masayoshi, would start to starve in the next day).

After seeing that the family was blocked while siegeing the city, Zhengliang immediately thought of a solution, which was to concentrate part of the gunpowder carried by the iron cannon team. Then he created two huge simple explosive packs. Then he concentrated his manpower to create a giant "shield" to cover the "blaster" to arrive at the edge of the city gate. He tinkered for two days in total. Finally, all the preparations were completed yesterday. So these explosive packs were immediately sent to the court today.

To be honest, Zhengliang was also worried that these simple explosive packs would not work. You should know that these two explosive packs had already concentrated all the reserve gunpowder of the Iron Cannon Team. Now the iron cannon without gunpowder has become a fire stick without gunpowder. If these explosives do not work in the siege battle, then they have to withdraw their troops temporarily and wait for the navy to send the siege weapons to launch before launching an attack.

Fortunately, among the two city gates, although the explosion at the west side did not blow up the city gate, the slash gate was opened. At this time, the soldiers of Yoshida Shigemasa's right formation who had been waiting for a long time immediately rushed into the slash gate in one breath and rushed straight into the city from here. After a melee, the slash gate in the west was also opened by the Luo family soldiers of the right formation. The front formation where Aguda was also poured into the minister at the same time.

The defenders with only a few hundred people were obviously outnumbered when facing the attack of nearly a thousand people. Some of them immediately dropped their weapons and raised their hands to surrender, while the other defenders who were still resisting were besieged and killed by the soldiers of the Luo family. As the guard general, Sugi Takayaki and Sugi Shigeki were also recruited in a fierce battle. These two were also unlucky enough. They finally got replaced by the Luo family by the Danai family and eventually died at the hands of the Luo family.

Just as the fierce battle was in Okura Castle, the left formation of the Luo Family, who was camping in Zichuan to the southeast of the Luo Family's main formation, also met the joint reinforcements of the Sugi family and the Nagano family who came to rescue Okura Castle.

Because the Luo family was blocked when attacking Okura Castle, the Sugi family and Nagano family, closest to Okura Castle, finally came to their senses in shock when the Luo family suddenly invaded Toyomaeki, and immediately organized some military forces to start rescue at Okura Castle. After all, Okura Castle is the gateway to the Okura Plain of Toyomaeki. Once the Kokura Castle is lost, the next target of the Luo family's attack will naturally be the Sugi family and the Nagano family's territory.

"Haha, it's a good time!" Looking at the Sugi family, which was coming along the south direction of the east bank of Zichuan, the Nagano family coalition forces, and the chief general of the Luo family left formation stationed in the north direction of the east bank of Zichuan, laughed.

"Sir, should you ask your lord's opinion first before you attack?" said Shingoro, a more cautious Junmufu Luo's family.

"What are you waiting for? The lord has sent someone to inform you. Moreover, judging from the distance between the place where we are stationed and the lord's own formation, by the time the lord's order is sent back, we have already fought with each other." Deputy General Kamimuramoto Tsuna said.

"No, don't wait, fight!" said Nagari Akachi, who had already been fighting on the other side.

"The decisive battle will be today!" Executive Yuan made up his mind at this time.

"Haha! I'm going to beat those little guys in front of me!" Marume Raimei shouted and waved her fists with a hot temper.

Seeing the expressions of these people, Luo Shingoro knew that he no longer needed to continue saying anything. So he also pulled out the Taidao on his waist and prepared to fight.

In this way, after discovering each other, the two armies immediately began to set up their own formations in the north and south directions of the river beach on the east bank of Zichuan.

"Is this the military force of the Luo family? Is the other party planning to attack first?" Sugi Tsukizuki, the main general in the military formation between the Sugi family and the Nagano family. In his opinion, the military force of the Luo family was divided into several small square formations at this time, and the front end was slightly convex, which was a fish scale formation.

"Don't underestimate your opponent! After all, the other party is the army of the invincible Fat Eagle!" said Nagano Yoshiya, the governor of the Nagano family on the other side. Compared to the Luo family, the overall formation on their side looks good. However, the soldiers seem to be of different quality. Many peasant soldiers even use bamboo as weapons and only have bamboo armor on their bodies. Some of the other party wears an armor they have never seen before (the Luo family's exclusive Luo family is only for regular and easy use). In addition, a certain number of people wear ordinary ones that are currently popular among the famous families of various wealthy families. The Luo family is much better than their own in both formation and weapon preparation.

"Hmph, the other party looks like there are only about 500 people, and there are more than 1,000 people here, so why should we be afraid of them?" Sugiju said coldly. Speaking of which, Sugiju, a traditional nouveau riche, was very disdainful of the Luo family, as a traditional wealthy family. Especially when he thought of the fat-mae Hawk who was still closely servile in Ouchi Yoshitaka, he was even more disdainful. Now Nagano Yoshiyao actually has the power of others in front of him and destroys his ambitions, he is naturally very dissatisfied.

"Then please ask Master Guardian to command everything." Seeing Sugi Tsukizuki's face unhappy, Nagano Yoshiba immediately said.

Soon after, the coalition forces of the Sugi family and the Nagano family began to move towards the Luo family army. After the distance approached, six teams of soldiers quickly broke away from the formation and began to contact the Luo family army, attacking the reserve team responsible for the front line Nagato Akagi.

Once the two armies fought, the Luo family was at the top, suppressing the Sugi family and Nagano family coalition forces outside the long spear formation. As the back formation, the army, the Luo family Shingoro, was calculating the number of casualties on both sides. Most of the battles between the powerful clan Daming in the Warring States Period were low-intensity wars, which means that there were not many people who died in frontal confrontations. Ordinary soldiers could withstand 10% of casualties, which was quite powerful. If they suffered 20% of casualties without retreating, they were elite.

"It won't take long to go, the Sugi family and the Nagano family will retreat in the first formation." Looking at the battle situation in the front, Roche Noburo said confidently. Sure enough, the Sugi family and the Nagano family will run back after several sarcastic roars.

"Sir, let's start chasing." As the left formation of the fish scale formation, Raimei, asked for a fight. The army he was in had not become the first formation. He had already held his breath in his heart, "The soldiers on the other side can only be dispersed by one."

"Wait, look over there!" The main general Execution of Okumae pointed to the battlefield. The Sugi family and Nagano family quickly replaced the gap left by the retreat of the first team to avoid being pursued by the Luo family army.

"Even so, we can break it with one blow!" said Marume Raimei, "Sir, please give an order."

"Well, it's almost done. Send the order and the whole army attack!" At this time, the execution of the army felt that it was almost done, so he immediately ordered. Although there were only 500 people on their side, they had 200 fifth-ranked teams. Even the other 300 peasant soldiers were also from the peasant soldiers in the regular reserve service, and their combat effectiveness was much stronger than ordinary peasant soldiers.

"Ha!" Marume Rami, who had been waiting for a long time, Uemura Moto Tsuna, and Luo Shingoro shouted loudly, turned around and ran to their respective positions at the platoon of the reflex lineup to command, "Prepare to attack!"

"Raising the gun in an array!"

"Breaking!" The spearmen in the Luo family's phalanx immediately raised three spears together. There was a slight distance between people, and stood in front of three rows.

"Step forward!"

"Breaking!" The Luo family's square formation echoed and began to step forward. The sound of impact on the armor was like an angry tide, and one sound was overwhelming.

"kill!"

"kill!"

Every five steps the Luo family phalanx took, there was a loud shout. The white flag-bearing and the black Luo family eagle pattern rushed forward like a group of eagles hunting. The spear was like a forest and the military horn was like thunder. The Luo family army was very energetic.

The pioneer formation was in the fierce battle with the opponent, Nagari Akachi was inspired by the momentum of the army formation in the rear. He rose first and shouted: "Young people, the military force of the adults is here to support us! Break through the enemy in one breath!" After the roar, the soldiers rushed to the Sugi family and the third formation of the Nagano family coalition.

"Kill!" Akachi Nagato's team of troops followed Akachi Nagato's roaring and charging.

"Hmph. I plan to disperse my military formation. Just a few people are just a delusion!" Seeing that the platoon where Akachi Changren was charged and killed, Shan Zhongju said a little disdainfully. Then he commanded his troops to start rushing to encircle and annihilate the platoon before the Luo family's rear army arrived.

"Haha! The more boys there are in the Shan family, the better!" Seeing that more and more enemy troops were besieging, Akachi Nagari fought wildly while swinging his sword, "I will chop, I will chop, I will chop!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" At this time, there were waves of roars coming from behind. The huge screams began to echo over the entire battlefield. It turned out that the Luo family army formation in the rear arrived at a very fast speed in time.

"Flat gun, hurry!"

The main general carried out the gun to level the gun and commanded loudly. So the spears around him immediately flattened the weapons and trotted forward. Seeing this, Sugizakaki immediately divided four teams from the Sugi family and the Nagano family coalition forces to block the enemy.

"Prepare to catch the enemy and charge!" Seeing that the enemy was also coming, under the command of Nagano, the soldiers of the Luo family raised their weapons and charged towards the enemy more than ten steps away. The three-pointed spear formation was like cutting tofu. They stabbed into the Sugi family and the Nagano family coalition formation. The spearhead instantly stabbed the enemy, penetrated from behind, and the human body hung on the spear like a skewer. The spear preparation soldiers with results need to swipe the gun hard to draw out the weapon.

"Road slowly, the gun and fur!" Execution of Nagano issued another order, and the spear foot was immediately changed to stabbing, and more than a hundred long spears were hit up and down. If you look down from the sky at this time, you will find that the Luo family's gun and furnishing formation swept the Sugi family like a broom to sweep away the Sugi family, Nagano family and Nagano family fell in rows. A Sugi family, Nagano family's thigh was stabbed and fell to the ground and thought he was dead. Seeing the Luo family's spear soldiers stepping over him, they seemed not to find him. Just as he was very glad, he saw a Nota knife slashing at his head.

The soldiers of the Luo family stepped on the Sugi family and the bodies of the Nagano family coalition advanced. Akagi Nagari, who was in the front, didn't know how many people he killed at this time, and he was also injured. He saw a few feather arrows inserted into his body, but he still smiled and shouted: "Have fun! Come on!"

At this time, Zheng Kuroka and others defeated another wave of coalition forces from the Sugi family and the Nagano family. The fallen corpses were in pieces, and blood flowed along the slope into the Zichuan next to it, making the entire Zichuan a blood-colored river.

Execution Jung-chan thought in his mind: "Repel another wave of enemy troops, and the enemy's aura will collapse."

Just as Naoka was calculating in his mind, Sugiju on the opposite side seemed to be two or three times the opponent's own military force was defeated by the opponent. He gritted his teeth and then took out his old truth. So under his command, the warriors wearing armor rushed over with many feet.

"Gunfu!" Zheng Jian also felt a stern when he saw this and shouted immediately.

"Breaking!" The Luo family's spears roared, and the three spears danced up and down, and the formation was completely shrouded in the forest of guns. The Shan family's coalition warriors relied on their armor and martial arts to sweep away the spear in front of them, rolled forward to avoid the sweeping attack, and approached the Luo family's football.

"Just just break into this gun array, the opponent will be finished!" A warrior was about to get up, and a cold light hit his shoulder, and he was knocked to the ground. Then three or four three-pointed guns were slashed at him with the edge blade, and he struggled a few times before he died. These attacks came from the second and third rows of long spears. Dozens of corpses lay down in front of the gunman formation.

Seeing that the Sugi family coalition could not break through directly, the Sugi family and the Nagano family coalition were surrounded by the Luo family under the command of Sugi Shigetsu. In this case, the Luo family's camp became dangerous again.

“Woo woo woo woo…”

In the critical moment, a sound of magic snails came from behind. He executed a gun to stab a samurai from the Sugi family to death, and then looked back. In the distance, a black torrent was approaching quickly.

"Rumbling..." Then everyone also felt the ground start to vibrate.

"Ah, it's my cavalry team! It's my cavalry team!" The sharp-eyed Shingoro Luo suddenly shouted in the back formation.

"Ah! It's our reinforcements! The reinforcements are here! Our reinforcements are here!" A burst of cheers suddenly sounded in the Luo family's military formation.

"Kill! Reinforcements are coming! Kill me! Don't let those guys in the cavalry ranks steal our credit!" At this time, Execution Junaka also shouted!

"Kill!" The morale of the Luo family's military power suddenly increased. On the contrary, as the black torrent in front was getting closer and closer, the morale of the soldiers on the Shan family coalition dropped instantly.

"Guardian Master Dai, what should we do?" Seeing that the cavalry reinforcements of the Luo family were getting closer, Nagano Yoshiya couldn't help but ask.

"Retreat, retreat!" Shan Zhongju's face suddenly changed at this time, and he immediately ordered that the reason why Shan Zhongju made the decision to retreat so decisively was because he probably estimated the number of cavalrymen coming to the Luo family to support. Oh my God! There were at least four hundred cavalry. This is really the largest cavalry troop in the Kyushu area. In such a plain area, when infantry encounters such a large number of cavalry, it is only the end of being massacred, so he issued a retreat order without hesitation.

"Ah? Sir, wait for me!" After giving the retreat order, Sugiju immediately pulled the reins, turned his head and fled. Nagano Yoshiya, who finally reacted, exclaimed immediately.

"Swoosh!"

"Nee!" Unlucky, at this time, a stream of arrow suddenly shot from the front, and just shot into the left eye of the war horse under his crotch who was turning his horse's head. The war horse made a bitter nod and stood up directly, unloading the Nagano Yoshika on the back of the horse. Nagano Yoshika screamed "Ah" and fell directly to the ground.

"Ah! Lord Lord ran away!" Someone in the Shan family coalition exclaimed.

"What?"

"Escape!" The soldiers of the Shan family and the Nagao family coalition forces who reacted immediately turned around and ran away.
