"kill!!!!!!!!!"
After a day of fierce fighting, it was almost dusk. The Han army's offensive not only did not stop, but became more and more fierce.
“Whoosh whoosh!!!!”
"Ahhhhh!!!"
The walls of Chushi City were covered with bloodstains. Under the city, a large number of corpses were piled up. There are soldiers from the Koizumi family and soldiers from the Han army.
Corpses are still being produced.
"Damn it. They are evil spirits." Koizumi Qingjun was sweating like rain, and he raised his head in despair and looked at the sky.
It's going to be dark soon.
On weekdays, this little time passes in the blink of an eye. But now, it seems as long as a year.
He didn't even have a chance to rest for a night and reorganize his troops.
"Kill!!!!" At this moment, a violent roar sounded in his ears. He shivered, and then watched a Han soldier fall from the sky.
This Han soldier was extremely tall and strong, in sharp contrast to the short Fusang man. After standing firm, like a tiger among sheep, he waved the steel sword in his hand and faced off against several Fuso warriors without losing.
"Sir, we can't hold on any longer. Please retreat to Erwan."
Xiao Xing quickly pulled Xiaoquan Qingjun, left the third pill in a hurry, and retreated to the second pill.
"Retreat to Erwan." At the critical moment, Koizumi Qingjun did not pretend to be a fat man. He raised the folding fan in his hand and shouted. The remaining soldiers of the Koizumi family hurriedly retreated to Nimaru.
Everyone is panicked.
Three pills, two pills, this pill.
Each place is smaller than the last, and the defense is stronger than the last. But according to the fierce offensive of the Han army, even if they retreat to Erwan, they will not be able to defend it.
"kill!!!!"
As Koizumi's army retreated, the Han army attacked Sanmaru with great momentum, and then massacred Koizumi's army who had no time to retreat.
Some temporary ronin and militiamen knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
But the Han army ignored it. The steel knife passed by, and a huge head rose into the sky. The Han army quickly occupied the third pill and then launched an attack on the second pill.
The battle between Nimaru and Honmaru ended quickly.
Dusk, before dark.
General Zhang Cai entered Chushi City surrounded by his own soldiers. Soldiers are disposing of corpses and treating wounded soldiers. Although it is a cross-sea battle, the bodies of the Paoze brothers will be cremated and the ashes properly collected.
I hope that one day I can take it back to my hometown.
The Han army was not so polite to the corpse of Koizumi's army. They first confiscated the armor and weapons, then transported the corpse out of the city, dug a hole and buried it.
Although the battle was fierce, the casualties of the Han army were actually not many.
A hundred households holding the head of Koizumi Qingjun stood under the city gate to welcome Zhang Cai.
"How did you die?" Zhang Cai took a look and asked.
"Seppuku. The head was chopped off by Koizumi's retainer." Baihu replied.
"Just bury it. It's not interesting." Zhang Cai said.
"Yes." Baihu responded and went down with the head. Zhang Cai turned to his soldiers and said, "Go and count the granaries and protect them."
"Search to see if there is a secret passage in the castle. And be on guard."
"Control all the families of the samurai in the city."
"Yes." The soldier wrote down one by one, turned around and went down.
Zhang Cai was not polite and came to Xiaoquan Qingjun's bedroom and lay down to sleep. Early the next morning. Zhang Cai asked a soldier from a thousand households to stay in Shicheng, and he led nine soldiers from a thousand households to join Wu Nian in Yangfu City.
at the same time.
Wang Gui and Wu Nian quickly marched into the army. Wang Gui led his troops to clean up the remaining castles of the Terashima family, while Wu Nian led his troops to attack his adoptive father's city.
Wu Nian led a small number of soldiers, five thousand Fusang soldiers, and quickly marched along the road to the gate of his adoptive father's city.
Foster City is also a mountain city, but it covers a large area and is not comparable to Deishi City.
There are a lot of flat areas around that can be used for attack.
In the east of the city, Wu Nian was riding a horse, looking at the city in front, and shook his head slightly.
He started his career by guarding castles. Seeing such a mountain city gave him a headache.
In particular, he didn't know how many soldiers and horses there were in the city. But looking at the number of soldiers on the city, there should be a lot of them.
"Send the order. Instruct the five thousand households to find a suitable place to set up camp."
"Find someone to go to the city to persuade him to surrender. As long as Terashima Masanori surrenders the city, I guarantee that he will be prosperous and wealthy."
Wu Nian turned his head and said to the soldiers.
"Yes." The soldier responded, turned around and went down. immediately. A big-headed soldier named Okita Yosuke, who was a samurai, volunteered to go to the city to persuade him to surrender.
Wu Nian rode on his horse and watched him enter the city.
The adoptive father is in the city. Inside the castle tower.
The governor of the Terashima family, Masanori Terashima, was wearing armor and sitting on a small bench. In front of him sat two rows of more than ten family members, all wearing armor and samurai swords.
Masanori Terashima is thirty-nine years old this year. He has a Chinese character face, a curly beard, and a scar on the left side of his face. He looks very ferocious and is tall and strong.
As a daimyo with a territory of 180,000 koku, he is already extremely large among the two to three hundred daimyo in Japan.
However, the Terashima family originally only had a territory of 20,000 koku. The newly added territory of 160,000 koku was gained by fighting, surrendering, or conspiracy in troubled times after he succeeded the family governor.
Because of this outstanding military exploits, his retainers considered him a "wise king".
Outsiders gave him many names, such as "Tajima's Fox", "Tajima's Famous General" and so on.
When he got the news that the Han army was attacking Tajima, he quickly issued an order and gathered a large number of troops in Yangfu City.
Now the city is strong, there are many troops, and there is sufficient food and grass.
His confidence is not ordinary.
Terashima Masanori glanced at the retainers majestically, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, although the Han soldiers conquered Tajima, it was beyond my expectation."
"But I currently have a strength of five thousand men."
"The main force of the Shogun is in Harima Country, and the Shogun himself is in Osaka Castle. Reinforcements will arrive in Tajima within five days."
"So as long as we hold on for five days, we can sit back and relax. Tajima's terrain is complicated, making it easy to get in but difficult to get out."
"As long as we cooperate properly, we can definitely eat up all the Han troops who enter Tajima."
"This battle achievement is worth at least 50,000 dan. It can make our Terashima family a great name with a territory of more than 200,000 dan."
"Of course your salary will also rise."
"But. How much it can increase depends on your performance."
"Risk your lives and fight with all your strength."
At the end of the sentence, Terashima Masanori's voice suddenly rose in pitch and was extremely contagious.
Samurai have an unimaginable obsession with their status and salary.
Upon hearing Terashima Masanori's speech, the retainers immediately became excited and responded loudly.
"yes."
