Chapter 797
The Ashikaga family has made up their minds to take Kambara Castle today.After all, it will be the Xiu family's birthday in a few days, and the Shi family wants to dedicate this to the Xiu family and celebrate the birthday of the Xiu family.
Although the main attack is to recruit ashigaru, but because the Toyoharu family was a famous family that rarely paid attention to protection during the Warring States period.Maybe it's not possible for everyone to have a set of Southern barbarian bodies, but cheap wooden poles can still be prepared for them.
Although the Ashikaga family is clearly a daimyo independent of the Toyoharu family, the system from top to bottom is based on your Toyoharu family. The system was also copied from Fengchun's family, and the two families also have similarities in the habits of marching and fighting.
Yesterday, Zhuang Lin Yixin blasted and attacked the city and failed to win. Today, the Ashikaga family did not let him participate in the battle, but sent another old lady Tian Jingzi to preside over it.
With the blowing of conch shells and the beating of war drums, Ashikaga's ashigaru were divided into a brigade of 100 people, and under the leadership of their respective samurai, they began to think about attacking from the left and the right.
With the loss of Nanmaru, only Honomaru, Ninomaru and Dongmaru remained in Kamahara Castle.However, there are still more than 1800 healthy defenders in the city. With so many people gathered in such a small city, the will to resist will naturally be particularly strong.
The [S]-shaped road connecting Nanmaru and Ninomaru formed a mountain road of death, and a large number of ashigaru fell on this road.Although Wooden Dungeon can block a certain number of incoming arrows, it cannot form effective resistance against iron cannons.
In addition, on the city wall beside the mountain road, there are also defenders throwing stones at the mountain road. If someone is unlucky and gets hit, they will be dragged down for medical treatment if they are lucky, and they will die if they are unlucky.
On the other hand, the Raiders of Higashi Maru face the same serious problem as Nan Maru, and even the height and steepness of the slope of Higashi Maru are even worse than that of Nan Maru, which is directly connected to Waimu.Coupled with the existence of vertical horns, the wooden ladder has no relay.
If you want to climb the city from here, you can only use the most stupid way of hanging rope climbing, but this way of attacking the city is the least favorite way of the Sengoku Ashigaru.Because the climbing stage is extremely dangerous, the city will continue to throw lethal things in the countryside.
For the ashigaru who are called, it is their duty to fight, and even if they die in battle, they will get a little compensation, but the family land will be cultivated by each person, their wives will remarry with their children, and their old parents will be left alone. People support.
So it's very difficult to expect these levies to perform well in siege battles.
Ota Keisuke had no choice but to prepare 50 small gold sentences with his own money, each weighing 5 taels, and promised that the first 10 ashigaru who climbed into the city would receive rewards, even if they died in battle, these rewards would also be given away go home.
In addition, he also prepared 500 kanmon, saying that the first 100 ashigaru who enter the city will get 2 kanmon, 100~200 people will get 1 kanmon, and others will be rewarded with 500 kanmon until all rewards are exhausted.
This is actually tantamount to buying your life with money, as the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward.Leaving aside the Jin sentence, 2 kanwen is already a lot of income for ordinary recruited ashigaru, and it is unknown whether their family's annual income can be 2 kan.
It was with Ota Keisuke's reward that Ashikaga's Ashgaru burst out with a little impact.Especially the troops that launched an attack on Higashimaru, after paying more than a hundred casualties, finally the first person climbed to the top of the city.
"Sagami Kamakura." But it's a pity that standing on the eaves of the stone screen, he was shot down by the samurai in the city with an arrow before he even finished singing his native name.
When Ota Keiko heard about this, he immediately ordered someone to find out his identity, and stuffed 5 taels of gold into his arms in front of everyone, and the gold would be sent back to his home together with his body.
With the proof of this dead man, it proved that the lord will really give rewards, and the morale of the ashigaru people in the back suddenly increased, and even snatched the rope to climb the city.
After paying nearly a hundred casualties, a second person finally went to the city.He was much smarter. Instead of staying on the stone screen, he jumped directly into the city and swung away the surrounding defenders with his spear. Then he called out, "Sagami Koza Kawatomura Kawataro enters the city once!"
This Ashgaru, named Kawataro, entered the city, which greatly boosted morale. Although he was picked to death by the defender in the city shortly after the singing, the space he opened up gave the opportunity to continue to make up people.
This is the case in siege warfare. There will inevitably be sacrifices in the front, but if the sacrifice is in exchange for a breach, the people behind can go forward and enter the city one after another. When the attacking side has more people than the defending side, the section of the city wall will be declared taken down.
Higashimaru's side was successfully opened up, and the smile on Ota Keisuke's face just showed.
But the situation was fleeting, and suddenly someone in the city shouted loudly, "Samurai Kakinuma Xinghei of Mikawa is ordered to help! The rebels are going to be rampant!"
Keisuke Ota was sitting on the Nanmaru turret platform directing the overall situation, and looked along the voice.It was only then that it was discovered that Lieutenant General Higashimaru had lowered the suspension bridge before, and dozens of brave men of the Tokugawa family rushed out from the city, thinking of the Ashikaga Army to launch a charge.
Their charge disrupted the rhythm of the siege. After all, the troops behind were constantly passing through the mountain road to support the soldiers in front.But their appearance directly cut off the follow-up support of the mountain road, and the hundreds of soldiers who had already struggled in the mountain road were completely surrounded.
At the same time, they began to use long spears to kill the Ashikaga soldiers who were hanging on the ropes along the Higashimaru city wall. Ota Jingzi originally thought that they were just death squads who came out to harass, but seeing the soldiers pouring out from behind, he felt like this Only then did I realize something was wrong.
He quickly realized: "They are trying to regain Nanwan!"
The fighting in the city was extremely fierce, but the Ashikaga family outside the city was pacing anxiously.Especially after hearing the commotion caused by the counterattack of the Tokugawa army just now, he couldn't wait to jump up and see the situation in the city.
Although I couldn't see what happened in the city, the shouts of killing in the city were obviously more intense than before.But he saw soldiers from Fengchun's family on the mountain scrolling through the stone screen and sliding down the hillside.
"What's going on!" The Ashikaga family naturally understood that these were deserters.But isn't the battle extremely fierce?He just saw that some people slid down the wall from the East Maru, so why run away after all of them have entered the East Maru!
Not long after, even the leading general Ota Keisuke led people out, and it seemed that even Waimaru was about to be lost again!
"No, it can't be withdrawn like this!" The Ashikaga family said eagerly.
He glanced around to see who could supervise the battle, but he still focused on Zhuang Lin Yixin.
Although he blamed him a lot last night, he really needed his strength now, so he could only bow his head and pray to Zhuang Lin wholeheartedly, "Hokishou is still up to you, I'll give you 300 ronin groups, plus you bring Let's go to the headquarters to help Musashi Mamoru. We must not waste our efforts."
Zhuang Lin Yixin is a very traditional samurai. Although he was indeed reprimanded by the Ashikaga family yesterday, he still strictly carried out the order given to him by his lord today.
I saw that after Zhuang Lin Yixin left the formation, after a little training, he rushed into the city with 300 ronin and 600 people from the headquarters, and pushed back into the city after reuniting with Ota Jingzi.
Okuhei Shinchang really wanted to regain Nanmaru, so as to reduce the threat posed by the superiority of the enemy's troops. However, the Nanmaru city gate was forced because the foundation of the gate was damaged. The two sides fought until noon, and the Ohei Army failed to repair it Mendong, the offensive of the defenders was still pushed back by the Ashikaga army.
If it is not urgent, it is counter-push. Due to the large number of ashigaru from the attackers pouring into Nanmaru, there are also ronin samurai, and the Tokugawa army also fled.There were so many fleeing people that it was too late for the suspension bridge to be retracted. Some ronin warriors brought Ashikaga Ashgaru among the defenders and rushed into Higashimaru.
The suspension bridges are opened in Dongmaru, but it is very close to the entrance of Ninomaru and Dongmaru.Once Dongmaru falls, Ninomaru will basically be declared lost.
Nobumasa Okheira was very anxious. He directly sent his son Okuheira Iemasa to lead the elite samurai retainers to the Tomaru for support. After paying the price of more than 30 samurai killed in battle and more than 60 injured, this will flood into the Ashikaga Army of the Tomaru Back to Nanwan again.
Of course, in this process, how many friendly troops were killed by mistake is no longer within the scope of consideration.All I know is that after re-counting at night, there were only 1800 uninjured soldiers in Puyuan City, which still had 800 people in a hundred days.Even counting the lightly wounded, there were no more than 1200 combatants in the entire city.
In just 2 days of siege, the defenders lost so many people, Kambara Castle can be called a meat grinder for Suruga.You must know that they are still a dedicated defensive side. In the two-day battle, thousands of people were killed and thousands of people were injured.
Of course, the Ashikaga family is also not feeling well. In order to win Kambara Castle earlier, they also put in all their strength. In the past few days, 700 people died in battle, more than 1200 people were injured, and more than 1/3 were unable to fight.
Shuangfan killed nearly 2000 people and injured nearly 2500 people for the city.
The Xiu family intends to send someone to replace the Ashikaga family, but the Ashikaga family straightforwardly rejected the proposal of the Xiu family, saying that he wants to take the city by himself.
In fact, after yesterday's battle, the morale of both the Ashikaga family and the Tokugawa army was low. The defense had suffered heavy casualties after only 3 days of fighting, and the reinforcements promised by the superiors were nowhere to be seen.
Correspondingly, the Ashikaga army formation also has this problem. The soldiers have been fighting intensively for days but failed to achieve particularly good results, and the soldiers have long been dissatisfied.
If Xiujia and Ota Jingzi hadn't contributed money to appease the Shijia, the soldiers would probably be ready to reason with their daimyo.
The Xiu family agreed to the Ashikaga family's request that the Ashikaga family continue to take the city, but deprived him of his command.Instead, he assigned Yingwa Jiuhu as the deputy general to lead the command and combat matters of the Vanguard Corps.
Just kidding, this is the first battle, and the vanguard army is about to lose its combat effectiveness. How big is it that there are so many cities in the future!
Jiwa Jiuhu discovered the low morale on both sides, and immediately asked the soldiers from Sanhe and Kinki in the army to pretend to be captured reinforcements to the defenders in the city to announce to the defenders in the city, "Kinki is already in chaos, Sanhe has fallen, and there are no reinforcements at all. "Such a lie.
In fact, this lie has a lot of loopholes. Why is there chaos in Kinki, and who took Sanhe?If you use your brain a little bit, you will know that there is a problem, but those ordinary ashigaru who can't read are dazed and ignorant.
They can only judge the facts by what they have seen with their own eyes. The current situation is that the Fengchun army is killing them like they are dying. This terrifying fighting power is something they have never seen in their entire life.
They have the ideal to believe that the reinforcements will not benefit from the field battle against such a powerful legion.What's more, I only defended for 3 days and I'm about to die, and I don't have any reinforcements, which doesn't prevent me from being defeated and captured!
No matter how the superior samurai tried to appease them, the Tokugawa family, which had suffered more than half of the battle damage, spread this sense of loss.The ashigaru below asked his samurai, and he always got "This is a lie from the rebels, and reinforcements will come soon."
But this cake has been drawn from the first day to now, but the ghosts of the reinforcements have not been seen, but the battle damage ratio on his side is scary. (They didn't know that the other side also paid a heavy price.)
In the early morning of the 4th day, the Ashikaga Army continued to attack Kamahara Castle, but the offensive was not as crazy as yesterday. It could only be regarded as a rhythmic oppression, looking for the weakness of the defender.
In fact, the biggest weakness is the East Maru, which is a semi-independent and outside Qulun, but there is a relatively smooth road leading to the Ninomaru.
In order to defend Higashimaru, Okping Nobumasa directly stationed his son Jiachang in Higashimaru, echoing himself in Honmaru.
However, the high-intensity fighting and oppression in the past few days still caused an accident to the tense Tokugawa army.
At the end of the 6th night, in a house in Ninomaru, a soldier who had been fighting intensely for a day was talking in his sleep, and shouted loudly, "The Toyoharu family is here, the Toyoharu family is here!"
This shout woke up the surrounding soldiers. No one could see who was in the dark, and they all hurriedly touched the weapons around them. It was inevitable that accidental injuries would occur in the dark, and there was no torch lighting, which eventually led to the roar of the camp.
Seeing the lively Ashikaga soldiers in the city, they were still worried that someone would shoot them down, so they notified all the leaders on their side. As a result, the city was in chaos until the middle of the night as the number of torches gradually increased, and then it calmed down a little. .
It's not that the Ashikaga family didn't want to take advantage of the camp to break the city, but it was stopped by Yuwa Jiuhu.Because Ying Xiao is terrible, but it is very likely to be contagious, and the nervous Ashgaru returns to hacking, which is likely to cause unnecessary attrition of one's own team.
Anyway, now to answer the camp roar that broke out in the city, then there must be losses in the city.The defensive force will inevitably be weak, and it is entirely possible to take this opportunity to change tomorrow into a strong attack, and strive to break through the city in one day.
This time, the Ashikaga family personally sits at the outer maru turret stage, and Kowa Hisatora and Noda Homono are around at any time.Shobayashi Yishin, Ota Kagesuke, Ryota Masasuke and other samurai led a group of elites to form a spearhead and began to launch a strong attack on Kamahara City.
After a night of catastrophe, the defenders of Puyuan City were already exhausted and could not withstand the offensive of the Ashikaga family. After half a day of fighting, only more than 300 people fled into this article and continued to defend.
Yingwa Jiuhu did not choose to continue the strong attack, but planned to send someone to persuade him to surrender.The condition is also very simple, that is, on the condition of Obing Xinchang's seppuku, in exchange for the safety of the soldiers in the city.
Puyuan Castle is not the original city of Okuheira Shinchang, the Okuheira family is now the leader of Dongsanhe Banner, and there are more than a thousand defenders of Puyuan City under his leadership, all of whom are from Sanhe.After fighting for so long, the most urgent thought of the soldiers is to return home safely.
Looking at the pairs of eyes looking at him, Opin Xinchang had no choice but to assume the responsibility of the city lord.
In the end, under the witness of Xiu's family, Okuhei Nobuchang, dressed in white, commits seppuku outside Puyuan City and on the bank of the Fuji River.
Xiujia kept his promise, but not fully.He guaranteed the safety of the remaining 1400 people in the city, but refused to let them go.Regardless of how many people there are, most of them are wounded. It is unknown whether there will be 600 truly healthy soldiers.
Because Xiujia's plan to lure and annihilate the Tokugawa army has not yet been implemented, these samurai, Ashgaru, who have really fought against him, must not be allowed to return to Suruga.They could only be wronged for a while, and when the Xiu family made a final decision in the west, they would naturally let them go.

In the end, under the witness of Xiu's family, Okuhei Nobuchang, dressed in white, commits seppuku outside Puyuan City and on the bank of the Fuji River.
Xiujia kept his promise, but not fully.He guaranteed the safety of the remaining 1400 people in the city, but refused to let them go.Regardless of how many people there are, most of them are wounded. It is unknown whether there will be 600 truly healthy soldiers.
Because Xiujia's plan to lure and annihilate the Tokugawa army has not yet been implemented, these samurai, Ashgaru, who have really fought against him, must not be allowed to return to Suruga.They could only be wronged for a while, and when the Xiu family made a final decision in the west, they would naturally let them go.
