The battle below the city was fierce.
Although Yokota Takamatsu and Nomura Mototaka were surrounded, they still had high morale. The general is so brave, and the ashigaru under his command are also full of confidence.
Kihei is an ordinary farmer in Jida Township, Omi Sakata County. There are five brothers in his family, but there are not many acres of land. It can be said that it is impossible to support the whole family.
So when the Kyogoku family formed the Standing Ashgaru, Kihei signed up very enthusiastically. After being called a permanent resident, the Kyogoku family could not help but provide three meals a day, as well as a considerable monthly salary.
By being frugal and frugal, Kihei can bring more than a kilogram of groceries to his family every month, so that his family will not go hungry.
Such a beautiful day was something Kihei would never dare to imagine before.
As the standing ashigaru of the Kyogoku family, Kihei also works very hard in daily training. When he followed Kyogoku Takamasa into Wakasa to face the Asakura family a few years ago, Kihei was promoted based on his record of winning three ashigaru. For the sake of Ashigaru Kotou, his subordinates are also in charge of 10 fellow Ashigaru.
After being called Ashigaru Kotou, Kihei's monthly salary more than doubled, and the family's life became better and better.
Last month, two brothers in the family also got married through Kihei, and their lives are getting better and better.
Kibei will never forget who gave him all this.
Looking at the four-eyed knot pattern flying behind him, and looking at the enemy troops ten times his size in front of him, Kihei felt no fear in his mind, but excitement.
Kill the enemy, and one head can be exchanged for 2 coins.
Seizing a long gun and a piece of equipment can also bring you a lot of gains.
More importantly, if you get 5 more heads, you can be promoted to an ashigaru head, which means you can obtain the status of a "samurai".
The promises made by Kyogoku Takamasa to the standing officers have never been broken, and every ashigaru firmly believes in them.
"kill!"
With one shot, he swept away several enemy soldiers who were trying to get close. Kihei saw the right moment and struck one of the enemy soldiers to the ground with a powerful shot. Soon, another Ashigaru behind Kihei had quick eyes and quick hands and killed this person with one shot.
Four more to go!
Kibei suddenly became excited and rushed out again while the enemy was stunned.
In the entire battlefield, there were nearly a thousand Ashigaru people like Kihei.
These Ashigaru, who have undergone rigorous training and experienced many battles, have exploded with amazing fighting power and fighting spirit.
The Kitahata family's miscellaneous soldiers had never seen an enemy of this level. For a while, they were suppressed by the Kyogoku family's troops and continued to fight. If it weren't for the fact that the Kyogoku family's troops were surrounded by the Kitahata family on three levels inside and three out, those who didn't know would have thought that the Kyogoku family had the upper hand.
The battle is still going on, and more and more Kitahata Ashigaru are joining the battle.
The Kyogoku family's troops have been squeezed into a corner, surrounded by the Kitahata family's troops swarming in. However, with their amazing fighting power and fighting spirit, the Kitahata family's Ashigaru in the front row were unable to break through the Kyogoku family's defense line, and were even suppressed by the Kyogoku family in some places.
But the Kitahata Ashigaru in the rear didn't know the situation in front. They only knew that they had surrounded the enemy. In this case, they naturally rushed forward one after another.
The current situation is that the Kitahata family's troops at the front have been unable to open up the situation, while the friendly troops from behind are still coming in a steady stream.
The Kyogoku family's troops formed a group and formed a formation to stay calm in the face of danger, while the Kitahata family's troops were wrapped up layer by layer like dumpling wrappers.
However, the Kyogoku family just couldn't be defeated.
On the front line, Yokota Takamatsu kept in mind Kyogoku Takamasa's instructions and commanded the troops to retreat while fighting and never fight to the death with the enemy. Nomura Mototaka in the rear army also cooperated tacitly, and the troops under their two men fought and moved in an orderly manner.
At this moment, Muzukou Yasuo also joined the battlefield with his rear troops. While scolding Muzukou Nagato Shou and Yamada Chief Accountant, they were useless, and at the same time commanded the troops to start the pursuit.
At this time, the city gate of Nagadao City opened, and more than a thousand soldiers rushed out, led by Todo Torakaka.
Upon seeing this, Mitsurui Toriyama, who was on one side of the battlefield, immediately sent an order to Ushima Tou, who was in front of Obama, "Uma Tou, help me hold back the enemy troops in the city."
"ha!"
Soon, Obama Umatsu commanded the troops to block the front, blocking not only Todo Toradaka, who came to support, but also the retreat route of Yokota and Takamatsu.
The scene was once very chaotic.
"This is the enemy's response force. It seems that the Kyogoku family is not far away from defeat. Everyone, come to me!"
Muzukou Yasuo saw clearly from his horse riding on his horse. When he saw Toriya Mitsurui blocking the reinforcements for him, he immediately commanded the entire army to start charging.
More than a hundred warriors from the Muzo family immediately led their men into the battlefield, making the already crowded battlefield even more crowded.
Kitahata Harugu, who was located in the Sanmeiji main camp, was determined after receiving the good news from the front one after another. He suddenly felt that the dawn of victory had arrived, and ordered his troops to start taking action.
Soon, Kitahata Harugu's main formation arrived at the rear of the battlefield.
Kitahata Harugu wears a gorgeous armor and has a black-haired deer-haired horse under her crotch. Kitahata Harugu spent a lot of money to buy it from an Oshu horse dealer.
"My lord, the Kyogoku family is bound to lose. We might as well launch a general attack and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. While the enemy is retreating, we may be able to defeat Nagashima Castle in one fell swoop. In this way, we can annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop!" At this moment, he came to Kitahata Harugu's side and suggested.
As the leading general in his family, Toriya Mitsei's words were recognized by Kitahata Harugu.
Kitahata Harugu himself was also a man of outstanding bravery. Since he succeeded to the throne, he had been fighting with the local people and Ichiku of Yinshi for more than ten years. He still had some basic judgments about the joint war.
In Kitahata Harugu's view, the current situation on the battlefield is that the Kitahata family has gained a one-sided advantage, and then they only need to annihilate the surrounded ashigaru of the Kyogoku family.
"Blow the snail and launch a general attack!"
Woo! Woo! Woo!
As three conch sounds sounded, the Kitahata family soldiers who had not yet entered the battle on the battlefield suddenly rushed forward with roars.
There is a plain on the south side of Changdao City. The place is quite big originally, but the battlefield of nearly 20,000 people still fills the place.
In the encirclement, the ashigaru of the Kyogoku family gradually lost their physical strength after nearly two hours of high-intensity fighting. Moreover, after fighting for so long, the Kyogoku family began to suffer some casualties and began to retreat one after another.
The Kitahata family still refused to give up, but due to the lack of battlefield space and the large number of Kitahata families, the entire battle line was stretched too narrow.
Soon, Nomura Mototaka in the rear army began to engage in battle with Obama Uimatou.
Retreating here, Yokota Takamatsu and Nomura Mototaka obviously have no way to retreat. At this moment, Mitsei Toriyama also rushed over from the flank with his troops to support Obama Ushimatou.
At this point, the entire Kitahata family attacked, and everyone came to Nagashima Castle.
What the Kitahata family didn't notice was that at this moment, on a rafting platform on the east side of Nagashima Castle, Kyogoku Takamasa, who had been watching the show for two hours, finally smiled.
The Kitahata family was indeed fooled.
