Pillars of the Wu family

Nagao Jinghu raised his big spear high, and galloped on his free moon hair horse. When passing through the front line, he suddenly turned around and shouted: "Izu Mamoru, Koheiji, Gonshiro, Kanshiro, four of you, listen, wait a minute!" Follow my steps and don't act without authorization, your mission is to walk away with one blow and never retreat! Remember my orders!"

"Ha!" The four of them responded at the same time. The real four and the fake five people each fought a chaotic dragon flag and divided into four groups. On the ashigaru formation, the huge impact force of the horses shattered the muscles and bones they collided with, and the sharp knife flashed and even cut the armor into two pieces.

Unfortunately, a few long-tailed cavalry collided with the forest of guns. The horses moving at high speed seemed to hit a wall. Several spears stabbed the horses' neck, chest and abdomen fiercely, and the horses neighed in pain when they sat down. There was a sound, and the huge pulling force threw several warriors into the air. They were thrown high, as if a fast hammer ball drew a beautiful arc, and fell into the array of spears behind them at an incredible angle. , the next moment the sound of crackling bamboo and wood was heard.

The companion who was following the long-tailed cavalry drew out the scimitar without hesitation and slashed at the culprit who killed his comrades. The sharp light of the knife flashed by, and the huge head flew high with a few smears of blood. With a trace of sluggishness in the killing, the next moment, the man took advantage of the horse's momentum and slashed another ashigaru with a backhand.

The sharp scimitar easily cut through the simple carcass, and cut a terrible wound from the neck obliquely, and bright red blood spurted out from the chest cavity like a fountain.In the blink of an eye, half of the remnant stone was knocked away by the huge force driven by the horse, and the blood splashed everywhere awakened the dead comrades from panic.

Blood can arouse fear as well as anger, and Hojo Ashgaru, who was stunned for a long time, reacted in an instant after being stimulated by the blood of his comrades.In an instant, a dozen or three spears pierced the long-tailed cavalry's body from different angles. The huge impact force from the front made the long-tailed cavalry have no time to react before being pierced through, and the body twitched and hung down. With a scimitar, his head tilted and he fell off the horse.

In an instant, the assault of two thousand cavalry broke the stalemate situation on the battlefield. On the ground, the cyan and black troops were entangled, and bewitching blood-colored flowers bloomed everywhere. These are bloody flowers that can only be produced by human life. Nourishes this dreadful sight.

Long-tailed Jinghu holds a scimitar in his left hand and a big gun in his right. The gun looks like a dragon swimming like a tiger, and everywhere it passes, it brings a bewitching glow of blood.The mounted warriors following closely behind turned into sharp razors.Each infiltration cuts a wound as deep as bone can be seen.It is like a chisel peeling off the last hard shell of the North Army.

The tragic shouts and roars were quickly dissipated by the influx of more and more ashigaru. In a short while, the main ashigaru formation of the Hojo Army with more than 2000 people was slaughtered, and a main reserve team was completely wiped out. Mie didn't even have a chance to escape.The rest of the teams also couldn't hold back and retreated, and the entire battlefield was like dominoes being defeated one by one. [

Toyama Tsunekage had run away at some point, and lost the command of the general, the wandering samurai followed their personal will, or launched a desperate charge, or turned around and fled frantically. A collapsed situation evolved into After several rounds of total collapse, until the total collapse of the 2 army, the [-] people retreated backwards in a daze. No one dared to provoke the long-tailed army, which was like a mad tiger.

When Hojo Shiyasu heard the news, his body shook and he almost fell down.All the ministers hurriedly supported him and took out the decoction for clearing heat and dispelling heat and poured it into his mouth. It took him a long time to wake him up. The first thing Xiangmi Xiongshi said when he woke up was: "The embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by an ant's nest, my family Kang!" The hard work and planning will be ruined once, Yuanshan Gangjing has missed me!"

Yamato Qingtong sighed and said: "My lord! Please cheer up now that the matter has come to this point. The defeat of the Eastern Route Army has shaken our army. Please make a quick decision, my lord!"

Hojo Shiyasu's complexion was very bad, he tried his best to sit up with the help of his attendants, and ordered: "Quickly adjust the five colors to prepare for reinforcements, protect the formation and retreat slowly, don't forget to be bitten by the tail by the long-tailed army!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, several retainers glanced at the governor of the Shao family. The deputy general of the Hojo army and the eldest son Hojo Shizheng hurriedly said: "Father! This must not be the case! The Ueno coalition has already collapsed for five battles, as long as Wushibei persists for another hour and a half We can break through Nagano Yemasa's main formation, and once Nagano Yemasa dies, the Ueno coalition forces will immediately disperse, and we still have a chance to come back!"

"Do you think my family doesn't know? It's been a long time of hard planning, you go and see the scene outside the formation! If my family didn't see this scene, how could I faint!" Hojo Shiyasu pointed out, and all the officials looked to the east, only Seeing that Nagao Jinghu's chaotic dragon flag followed closely behind the retreating Hojo army, and from time to time, the Hojo army's banner was cut down, and behind the chaotic dragon flag was the black Nagao army. His posture stunned everyone.

The Hojo Clan Kang sighed: "Let's withdraw! Before the defeat is complete, call the Special Forces back."

……

The Ueno Nationalist Army retreated across the board and couldn't hold their feet. Under the powerful offensive of Hojo Goshiki, they rushed back to the camp like a chicken chasing a dog. Most of the main force was surrounded by the vanguard's defeated army without even a chance to play. After rushing back, the famous Ueno army in the Kanto region failed to even perform [-]% of their level and was defeated in a daze.

Fortunately, this camp is solid enough. The base is modeled after the camp of the Longtail Army. The wooden fence is two rooms high and thick and is lined with giant wooden nails. There are more than ten sculls, relying on this, as long as you only need to guard the two camp gates, you can easily resist the large-scale attack of the Hojo Army.

Da Hu Xiugang immediately stood in front of the main gate of the camp with a spear in his hand, surrounded by a group of more than ten old brothers, each armed with a sword, he used a large spear to move freely among the chaotic army wherever he went. The enemy personally led the party members of the headquarters to rush from left to right and forcefully snatch back a few main forces that were surrounded.

Heibei's Duomu Yuanxing, relying on his martial arts and bravery, was overjoyed to see Da Hu Xiugang's fierceness and fought in person, but was swept away by Da Hu Xiugang.His hands were numb for a while, and even the big gun was thrown out, and another dangerous slash cut through Sanriyue's pocket, exposing Duomu Yuanxing's head.

"Huh? This person is still a general, and the flag seal is the Duamu family!" Da Hu Xiugang's eyes shot up with murderous intent.He didn't pay attention to the identity of this young warrior at first, but after a closer look, he saw Heibei's flag seal and immediately became murderous. If he kills Heibei's general in one fell swoop, he will be able to curb Wusebei's offensive momentum. After thinking about the reason, Hu Xiugang Staring at the multi-eyed Yuanxing holding the Taidao with fierce killing intent was a stab.

"Oops!" The brothers Shanjiao Dingji and Shanjiao Yasuda were shocked. Their father's Hojo Army practiced. The brothers protected Duomu Yuanxing, so they were not surprised when they saw Hu Xiugang stabbing with a big spear.

Yoshinobu Otani, Dr. Itamiemon, Fukushima Igamoru, Fukushima Shiroemon and other black warriors desperately rescued him. In a short time, seven or eight long spears stabbed Hu Xiugang, and the future sword master became a man and a machine.He immediately gave up his plan to kill Duomu Yuanxing and hurriedly retreated with his troops. [

At this time, someone in Wushi Beili broke the name of "Shangzhou's first shot" Dahu Musangshou.Rumor has it that his martial prowess is not inferior to Hojo Tsunari.Wu Se, who had seen Dihuang Hachiman's ability, knew his bravery and did not dare to rob him of his edge, so he had to let them fight and retreat back to the gate of the village to guard the wall.

In order to eliminate the adverse effects of the Nagano Eleven Guns, Hojo Tsusashi decided to let the "Nagano Five Guns" who had defected to the enemy lead his troops to attack the main gate.The elite were secretly deployed around it to wait for the opportunity to sneak attack, and this trick really worked. Looking back at the old "Sixteen Guns of Nagano", it is natural that the enemies are extremely jealous when they meet each other.

There were 11 people on Hu Xiugang's side, and there were only five people on the opposite side, and the other party turned away from the front and was timid. As soon as they met each other, Hu Xiugang beheaded two people in a row. The remaining three turned around and wanted to escape, but were easily wiped out by his ten brothers. Former comrades-in-arms are merciless, and nostalgia for old love on the battlefield is a dead end.

The Nagano Eleven Spears were busy cleaning up the door, and the Hojo Army retreated unprepared, and there would be another move. It was too late when Hojo Tsunashi suddenly appeared. Most of the Nagano Army's long spears lost their array protection, as if they had peeled off their shells. egg.It shattered into several pieces at the touch of an external force, not to mention that the general on the opposite side was Hojo Tsunashige, and it was a surprise attack with mental calculations.

Brothers Inoue Hiramori and Inoue Heitai who stood at the front were easily broken by Dihuang Hachiman before they had time to react. The two Inoue brothers were killed on the spot and all the people were cut into several plates and quickly slaughtered. Seeing that the situation was not good, Wada Bingbu took the lead to stop Dihuang Hachiman's attack, and they used their lives to fight for the chance of escape for their brothers.

Big defeat followed by big victory followed by another fiasco. Seventy to eighty percent of the morale that the Nagano Army had just accumulated was wiped out. Da Hu Xiugang watched the four brothers being easily swallowed up by Huang Bei, with nothing but remorse and anger in his heart, Da Hu Musashi Shou is famous for his bravery in Kanto, but he is not a pure martial artist. On the contrary, he has a long history in military strategy. He knew that the opponent set up a trap and drilled into it. not dead.

Nagano Yezheng led more than a thousand cavalry to respond. After a massacre, the Huangbei cavalry scattered around and faced the dense gun forest, but it was useless. Hojo Tsuna decided to withdraw his team immediately when he saw it was good. Light to foot, always keep the pressure on the main gate.

The main gate will not be able to be knocked down for a while, but fortunately there is still a side gate to attack. Nagano Yemasa's gate and several sons-in-law are sitting at the side gate. Nagano Yegu and Xiaobata Nobusada are also wrapped in it, and Hojo Wushibei lacks siege The disadvantage of the method is obvious, and it is difficult to break through the two camps without stopping.

At this time, the envoy of the Hojo family sent an order to withdraw the troops.

"What! Retreat now! Are you teasing me?" Naokatsu Tominaga was born with a loud voice, and he didn't know how to restrain himself when he spoke. At this moment, he pointed at the dilapidated Nagano army camp with swollen eyes. Salivating Xingzi made a face: "Who made this idea, let go of the big victory you got, and ruin the master's great career?"

The envoy didn't dare to provoke this big firecracker, so he had to calm down patiently: "Fuyongdian be careful! This is an order from the lord, and the long-tailed Jinghu will be defeated..."

Xu Shi was in a hurry, and Fu Yong Nao Katsu didn't care about his identity, he walked up to him and yelled: "Ah bah! Are you making me stupid? My lord must have been deceived by you sycophants, and I can't see what we are doing in front of the battle." Did Erlang fight in blood, throwing away the enemy's armor and fleeing? Are you still a warrior? Do you have the morality of a warrior! Ah! Answer me!"

"Fuyongdian! Are you disobedient!" Shi Fan's face drooped immediately, and he cursed countless times in his heart.With a sullen face, he directly used his trump card: "Please think carefully about the price you will pay for rejecting the lord's order! I will give you some time to think carefully."

Hojo Tsunade gave Hojo Tsunagao a wink and told him to deal with the envoy. He came over to comfort him and said, "Calm down the anger for the time being. The master's decision has its own reasons. The Nagao army counterattacked extremely quickly and is still chasing after him." To kill the retreating troops of the Eastern Route Army, we should take a step back to keep our formation intact. It is not safe enough for this formation to only have [-] troops, so you don’t have to be too angry. If you don’t succeed this time, there will be another time, and you will fight back later. gone."

Kasahara Yasushi followed up and said, "Doctor Zaemon is right. We are all serving the Lord, and laying down the land is also for our Hojo family. If this meritorious service causes the raid, it will become a crime if we have merit. Already!"

"But...but..." Toyong Naokatsu glanced at the dilapidated camp with some reluctance.In the end, I swallowed this breath: "What you said is reasonable. I was too eager to win, so let's talk about it next time?"

"Well! Let's talk about it next time!" Hojo Tsunashi coughed, and ordered: "The whole army is ordered to retreat by the Lord's order!"

The sudden retreat of the Hojo Army gave the Ueno National Army a short respite.Nagano Karmasa was overjoyed when he saw this: "It must be Nagao Masahiro who has launched an operation. Nagao Masa is indeed worthy of being the dragon of Echigo. With the speed of his soldiers, he can force the Five Colors back to help. At this time, attacking from the rear will definitely destroy it. Enemy, tell me that I will order the entire army to follow me to fight the Hojo Army's problem champion."

Soon Nagano Yezha was disappointed. He thought that the people of Ueno would be cheered up again after hearing the news, but the actual effect was not satisfactory. The leading bosses of Shirai Nagao, Sosha Nagao, and Ashikaga Nagao have been refusing to buy soy sauce His accounts, such as Numata Shouyasu and his like, boast that Nagao’s iron clubs have long been excluded from the system by Nagano Karma, and now Nagano Karma’s prestige has been damaged, let alone him.This was all within his expectations, and what surprised him the most was that his own people had problems too.

Hu Xiugang unexpectedly perfunctory said: "Everyone is very tired, let's take a rest before going out."

Shi Fan never expected that he would dare to politely refuse, and immediately became furious: "What does Dahu Musashimori mean by this? Are you disobedient? Don't forget how my lord pardoned your sins."

"Disobedience! Whose order! How dare you call yourself the lord!" Fujii Toyomomoromi sneered and said, "Absolution of sins, why are we implicated? Isn't it given by someone..."

"Shut up! Don't salute the envoys of Xinnong Hall." Da Hu Xiugang said with a smile: "I will guard the gate of the camp so that I can kill them all. Now the soldiers are exhausted and cannot continue. Please report back to Xinnong Hall for us to rest. After a while, Shinanoden must be able to understand our feelings!"

After dismissing the unhappy messengers, a few people gathered together and scolded Nagano Yezheng one by one, Dobi Liangshouyou sighed and said: "We killed those five bastards with our own hands in order to clear up our grievances, and we almost killed those five bastards for this." Following Hojo Tsunasari's path, four brothers were lost, and nine of the sixteen brothers went, what is it called now? Nagano Seven Guns?"

Da Hu Xiugang pulled out the Taidao from his waist, stared at the dim light and said in a low voice: "Ueno Seven Guns, we are from Ueno, not Nagano!"

……

A long-tailed cavalryman in black armor bites Yuanshan Gangjing and chases after him. Behind him are thousands of retreating soldiers, sitting on a healthy horse and panting desperately. Obviously, it can't bear to run around all day. Yuan Shan Gangjing was very anxious after going through a lot of trouble, they would all die here if they didn't run away, but he soon received another piece of news that made him even more anxious.

"My lord! The old lord said that the mount can't run anymore, and the old lord can't hold it anymore."

"What!" Toyama Tsunakage was shocked when he heard the sound. His father Toyama Tanba Mori Naokage was known as "Ancient Tanba". He was still in good health when he was over [-] years old. He could eat and sleep healthier than many samurai who were much younger. At the beginning, Gang Yuanfu followed Hojo Soun from Kyoto to the Izu countryside to gain a foothold. It can be said that he has been working hard for the Hojo family's hegemony all his life. He has retired and is unwilling to stay in Odawara to cultivate. He insisted on joining the battle.

Today, the Hojo Army got up very early in the morning because the army dispatched a surprise attack on the Ueno country. They ran all the way to Ueno and fought an unsuccessful joint battle. Just after lunch, they were defeated and fled desperately. Let alone him at such an age The old man couldn't bear his strength, and the young samurai were exhausted. The samurai on horseback were fine, but the ashigaru running with bamboo spears were getting slower and slower, and they were simply dropped and abandoned.

Yuan Shan Gangjing hurriedly turned his horse back and found his father by the side of the grove. The old man was sitting under the boulder with white hair and a pale face, surrounded by several guards. Yuan Shan Gangjing immediately got off his horse , quickly stepped forward to help the old man, and said: "Father! Get on my horse and go quickly, there is a child here."

"The old man can't run anymore, and he doesn't want to run anymore, Fujikuro! Take your sons and go quickly, the old man has lived enough at this age, let me spend the last time here quietly! " Yuanshan Zhijing opened his hand and said seriously: "Remember that you are the head of the family, don't act emotionally, go!"

"Father!" Toyama Tsuna, a big man with a head full of anxiety, the scorching sun shining on his face in the afternoon, tried to force his father to help him but was forced back by the old man's sword. Several guards around the old man put their hands on the handle of the knife On the ground, rolling the eyes of the dead fish seemed to tell him, I don't care if you are the governor, I will kill you if I come over.

"The Echigo cavalry is coming! Run!"

Yuan Shan Gangjing's complexion changed and he almost jumped up. He tried to persuade his father several times but still refused. Seeing that the situation was not going well, the servants wanted to forcefully pull the old master onto the horse. Those guards who didn't wink really dared to stab people. A face-to-face meeting brought down several of Yuan Shan Gangjing's favorite ministers, making the corners of his distressed mouth twitch.
