A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

The Suwan crowd shouted slogans, held up tall bamboo bundles, and advanced towards the city head step by step. The city also knew that it was not far away, and only sporadic arrows and projectiles were shot down. But even so, the soldier holding the bamboo bundle was still startled. When he heard the slightest movement, he immediately squatted down behind the bamboo bundle.

Ogasawara Nagamasa was also very handsome. He was wearing a hunting suit and a haori coat. He was riding on a war horse with a shoulder height of one meter and three meters in a state of complete contempt for the enemy. The lightly prancing horse followed the drum beats and moved forward obediently, causing Ogasawara Nagamasa's body to jump up and down.

Not long after, the soldiers stopped halfway up the mountain. As usual, the performance started with no effort at all, and the shouts came one after another. The lively scene does not look like a war, but like going to a market.

The Kiso Army on the top of the city also saw Ogasawara Nagamasa, who was riding a 1.3-meter-tall horse without any armor. With such a coquettish image, it was difficult not to be discovered.

Ogasawara Nagamasa didn't pay attention to the hostile eyes on the top of the city. He galloped from one end of the city to the other, allowing the horse under his crotch to become familiar with this not-so-steep hillside road, and was able to slowly accelerate and gallop.

There seemed to be samurai in the Kiso army who were good at archery. They fired a volley at Ogasawara Nagamasa, and the arrow flew straight to Ogasawara Nagamasa's face like a flying fox. But Ogasawara Nagamasa, a master of martial arts, was bold and shouted, "Just in time!" He stood still in the face of the arrow. When the arrow was just a hair away from hitting him, he actually reached out his hand like lightning and hit him in one fell swoop. The arrow is in his hand.

In the records of Xiao Pingtai's previous life, he once saw that among the Japanese pirates there were people with strong martial arts who could catch the arrows shot by the Ming army and then shoot them back. I thought it was probably because the soldiers of the Guard Army were exterminated to death and the combat effectiveness of the Japanese pirates was exaggerated, but I didn't expect that there really were such capable people.

Ogasawara Nagamasa caught the arrow, laughed loudly, raised the arrow high, and mocked the samurai at the top of the city for giving him the arrow.

By catching the arrow in his hand, Ogasawara Nagamasa seemed to feel that the arrow had weakened at this distance. As the saying goes, at the end of a strong crossbow, the arrow cannot penetrate Lu's silk. According to Qi Shuai, the Japanese pirates were also good at using giant bows and heavy arrows. Anyone caught within a distance of twenty or thirty meters would die, but any further away would not help.

So Ogasawara Nagamasa drove the horse without hesitation and shouted to the servants following him: "Arrows are coming! Arrows are coming!"

The attendant immediately handed over a quiver containing ten long arrows. Without hesitation, he drove his horse and rushed towards the city, completely ignoring the threat of iron cannons and bows on the city.

The people in the city saw him rushing towards him and said something like "It's just the right time." Immediately ordered the bows, arrows and iron cannons on the city to fire a volley at Ogasawara Nagamasarai. The sound of bang bang bang bang sounded one after another, and then the sound of iron cannons accompanied by gunpowder smoke also exploded.

Ogasawara Nagamasa was suddenly bathed in smoke and bullet rain. Just as everyone below the city was worried, the Kiso army on the city laughed at him for overestimating his capabilities. A horse neighed through the air, and Ogasawara Nagamasa had already half stood up from the horse, completely leaving the saddle.

The body fell forward, his eyes locked on the warrior giving orders on the top of the city, and the long bow banged in his hand.

"middle!"

The warrior in the city was shot in the neck immediately, making a grunting sound from his mouth, and fell down with a look of disbelief on his face.

There were cries of astonishment in the castle, Ogasawara Yabu's equestrian skills were so good. It was amazing, and the morale of the Yamauchi army was greatly boosted.

"Here comes the drum!" Yamauchi Yoshikatsu raised the drumstick, and immediately three attendants came to the front of the formation carrying a large taiko drum. Yamauchi Yoshikatsu knocked on the drum stand first to test his strength. Then he beat the taiko drum without hesitation, and the war drums rumbled, and the morale of the soldiers increased.

On the hillside, Ogasawara Nagamasa only had the power of this arrow. Hearing the sound of taiko drums coming from the formation, he also knew that his recent military exploits had been noticed by Yamauchi Yoshikatsu. In this way, I am more motivated.

The war horse under its crotch is also very humane. It gallops under the city following the instructions of Ogasawara Nagamasa. The longbow in Ogasawara Nagamasa's hand kept firing and hit ten people with ten arrows. All the brave and elite men in the city who dared to show their faces were swept away by him, exclaiming again and again.

The Suwans, who were accustomed to seeing the wind direction on the battlefield, knew that the time had come. Without any supervision, someone rushed to the top of the city carrying a bamboo ladder. The soldiers on the city looked at Ogasawara Nagamasa standing under the city with a bow raised. No one dared to show up and shoot despite the beatings and scoldings of the samurai in the city.

"Hahahahahaha, the city has become a frightened bird, and the city is about to be destroyed." Xiaoping Tai clapped his hands and laughed, and most of the generals watching the battle also agreed.

The so-called bird that frightened the bow is the story in "Warring States Policy", in which the king of Wei and the doctor Geng Lei were shooting hunting. Geng Lei just pulled the bow string to the sky, and the wild geese from the sky actually fell down in response.

Now the Kiso army on the city is the frightened geese. As long as Ogasawara Nagamasa's bow string rings, a brave soldier will fall. The most courageous group of people were all dead, and the remaining soldiers were just temporarily armed farmers who had no courage to continue to fight.

Ogasawara Nagamasa alone could scare a hundred people in the city. This is the skill of a brave general, which is hard to find.

The samurai of Hatamoto asked for a battle and asked Ogasawara Nagamasa to ascend the city together. But Xiaoheita spoke up: "It seems that Shiro and I alone can break the city."

Everyone looked at the city again. Ogasawara Nagamasa had dismounted. Several soldiers were carrying a log and under his leadership, they attacked the gate of Shangnoden Castle.

Although the situation on the city has been relieved, the counterattack has become very weak and has no impact on the soldiers attacking the city. Almost no soldiers were shot and died in the battle.

As for the seemingly solid gate, under the impact of the Suwa people shouting chants, wood chips and dust flew into the air. The soldiers on the Yagura watchtower at the door ran for their lives out of fear, and some even jumped directly from the four or five-meter-high building.

With a heart-wrenching squeaking sound, a huge crack appeared in the wooden door. Then the Suwa soldiers continued, and the wooden door finally failed to hold up and fell to the ground.

"Yamauchi clan Hamoto, Ogasawara and Shiro Nagamasa are the first to ascend the city!" Ogasawara Nagamasa's servants shouted loudly, holding flags, announcing that the wall of Kaminoden Castle was breached.

The Suwa people holding bamboo ladders also boarded the city at many places in Itaka. From then on, no decent resistance could be organized in the city. The peasants and soldiers cried for their fathers and mothers, and fled towards Fukushima Castle on their hands and knees. No one stopped to resist the Yamauchi army that had just entered the city, allowing the walled city to fall.

Therefore, the two mountain guides on the top of the city were erected one after another, representing the change of hands of the Shangzhidian City.

At this moment, it has not been more than an hour since Ogasawara Nagamasa mounted his horse and entered the battle to attack the city!

The custom of adding more updates will not continue during the Chinese New Year period.
