The head of Umedo Castle.
The shouts of killing are endless.
Looking at the enemy troops constantly coming around him, Kyogoku Takamasa's right hand was already a little numb.
"kill!"
An enemy samurai took advantage of Kyogoku Takamasa's inattention and suddenly rushed up with a sword. Kyogoku Takamasa had his back to the samurai at this time and had not yet reacted.
Fortunately, Akao Kiyotsuna on the side quickly stepped forward to block the samurai with quick eyesight and hands.
Hearing the noise, Kyogoku Takamasa turned around and saw that the other party was planning a sneak attack, and he was furious.
"Since Omi's first formation, I have gone through large and small battles, and the number of people I have defeated is less than half of what I am today!"
"If there is anyone who is not afraid of the dead today, please come forward and die immediately!"
Kyogoku Takamasa held his spear horizontally across his chest, looked around at the enemy uniforms, and said in an elegant manner.
Since the Akabori family launched their general attack yesterday, the situation has become extremely intense.
After a day of continuous fighting, more than half of the Kyogoku family's men were killed or injured.
Kyogoku Takamasa has not received the latest report on the situation at Otemon for a long time. The southeast oar at Otemon was lost half an hour ago, and the people deployed on the southwest oar have also withdrawn.
Now only a few people around Kyogoku Takamasa, such as Akao Kiyosuna and Nizi Kanmasa, can fight again. The others are either dead or injured, and the situation is already very critical.
Now Kyogoku Takamasa had to stand up and try to delay as much time as possible.
Calculating the time, reinforcements should arrive.
Seeing Kyogoku Takamasa stand up and demand "One Rider", the soldiers of the Akahori family who had seen Kyogoku Takamasa's bravery all looked hesitant, and no one dared to step forward.
Just kidding, there are at least forty or fifty corpses piled up in front of Kyogoku Takamasa. Although the reward given by Akabori Gunobu is very generous, you still have to die to take it!
"Don't be so arrogant, Omi kid, are you bullying me into being unmanned in Ise?"
At this moment, a samurai wearing black uniforms suddenly appeared in the crowd of Akabori family.
"Akabori Samayun, a member of the Akabori family, is here to learn the martial arts of Yasha Saburo!"
Seeing that the person who came was tall and steady, Kyogoku Takamasa put away his contempt, clenched the spear in his hand, and stared at Akahori Samayun with a pair of tiger eyes, but did not step forward.
It seemed that he couldn't wait any longer. Seeing that Kyogoku Takamasa didn't move for a long time, Akabori Samayun immediately took a step forward, held the saber in his hand with both hands and slashed hard.
Kyogoku Takamasa quickly turned his gun to resist.
Bang!
Their weapons immediately collided.
"Come again!"
With just one contact, Kyogoku Takamasa knew that the Akahori Sama Yun in front of him was not his opponent.
Very simple.
The opponent obviously used all his strength, but he only used half of his strength.
Make a decision!
Kyogoku Takamasa no longer held back, held the gun body with his left hand, and with his right hand, he suddenly lifted the gun head from bottom to top, and went straight to Akabori Samayun's throat.
The long spear in Kyogoku Takamasa's hand is not the Sangen gun used by Ashigaru, but a short spear, which is less than half the length of the Sangen spear and is quite light to use.
Suddenly, the sound of a gun came and went straight to Akabori Samayun.
Kyogoku Takamasa's gun was very fast and was about to hit Akabori Samayun in the blink of an eye.
However, Akabori Samayun is not a salty fish, and he does have some abilities.
Before Kyogoku Takamasa's spear tip could reach him, he lowered his head, then bent forward and leaned forward. Then he raised his sword and stabbed Kyogoku Takamasa in the chest.
Kyogoku Takamasa was not at all frightened, he quickly lowered the gun body and placed it directly on Akabori Sama Yun's sword.
Akahori Zuomayun suddenly felt a huge force coming from him, and almost dropped the sword in his hand.
At this time, Akahori Samayun instantly realized that the previous attack was caused by Kyogoku Takamasa, and he secretly screamed in his heart that he was about to suffer while he immediately prepared to retreat.
But it's too late.
The attack just now, Akahori Sama Yun, had already rushed to the area just one step away from Kyogoku Takamasa. At this time, Akabori Sama Yun wanted to run, how could Kyogoku Takamasa agree.
Seeing that the opponent's saber was suppressed by him, Kyogoku Takamasa turned the gun body, and the tail and head of the gun swapped positions.
puff!
A huge force was transmitted from the tail of the gun into Akahori Samayun's waist. Akabori Samayun felt that his waist had been knocked off, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out immediately.
Kyogoku Takamasa quickly put down his spear and stepped forward with his left leg, then made a shot with his right leg and suddenly exerted force.
At this moment, Kyogoku Takamasa seemed to be possessed by the national football team, and his right leg quickly flew towards the two balls under Akahori Samayun's crotch like an arrow.
It's a pity that the strength was enough, but the accuracy of the shooting skills derived from the national football team made Kyogoku Takamasa's kick choke.
Akahori Zuomayun had closed her eyes one moment, preparing to feel the sadness in her balls, but the expected severe pain did not come the next moment.
Slowly opening his eyes, it turned out that Kyogoku Takamasa kicked his inner thigh.
Just when he was about to secretly call out his luck, Kyogoku Takamasa suddenly swung his leg and tripped Akahori Samayun to the ground. Then Kyogoku Takamasa suddenly pulled out the bloody saber from his waist and jumped up high. In an instant, a huge head flew out.
Akahori Samayun!
die!
"The enemy is ashamed! I take off his clothes!"
Kyogoku Takamasa raised his sword and shouted angrily, causing the Akahori Ashigaru around him to take several steps back in shock.
Akabori Samayun is one of the few brave men in Akabori's family, and he is quite famous as a martial artist in his family.
Now, this person who was regarded as a "big boss" in the eyes of the Ashigaru was actually beheaded by Kyogoku Takamasa in the blink of an eye. This operation brought such a shock to these Ashigaru people.
The person on the other side is simply not human!
For a moment, these Ashigaru all wanted to turn around and run away.
Whoosh!
Kyogoku Takamasa suddenly felt the sound of a bowstring, and subconsciously turned his body, and then his left arm shook. When he turned his head and looked, an arrow had penetrated the cage hand, dripping with blood.
Kyogoku Takamasa turned around and saw that a samurai from the Akabori family was still holding a bow and arrow in a shooting position.
Mudd!
Can you bear this?
Kyogoku Takamasa quickly picked up the spear on the ground and threw it hard. The spear immediately drew a beautiful arc and hit the samurai's chest.
Looking at the enemy samurai who fell with unwilling eyes, Kyogoku Takamasa's anger still remained.
At this time, Akao Kiyosuna also killed another samurai. Seeing that Kyogoku Takamasa was injured, he immediately asked with concern: "How is my lord?"
"No problem!"
Kyogoku Takamasa pursed his lips, then gritted his teeth and pulled out the arrow. Because he used too much force, a lump of flesh and blood came out of the arrow.
"We can no longer defend this place. Order the entire army to retreat towards Ninomaru and guard the tiger's mouth!"
"ha!"
Seeing more and more enemy troops rushing towards the city, although Kyogoku Takamasa could kill dozens or even hundreds, the Akabori family's troops numbered nearly two thousand.
Even if he asked Kyogoku Takamasa to kill two thousand pigs, Kyogoku Takamasa wouldn't be able to kill them all.
The tiger's mouth (junction) between Umedo Castle Ninomaru and Honmaru is winding and narrow, and there are narrow rooms and secret doors on both sides that can be used to throw stones. Kyouyo Endo and Inuhachiro Yamaoka have mobilized the people in the city to tear down their houses and wait there.
This is the last stronghold of Kyogoku Takamasa and others, and it is also the last resort.
As for the imperial palace in Umedo Castle, that wooden house with only one floor is really embarrassing!
