16. Ten years to fight today's decisive battle
In theory, soldiers are very fast, and the city of Tinshi is in danger and is surrounded and attacked by more than thirty times the enemy. Why is Xiaopingta still walking so slowly?
It was just because Xiaopingta had a three-pound bronze cannon that took a year to imitate!
He abandoned the errands who could not keep up with the team and the extra supplies for hundreds of miles. After five days, Xiaopingtai traveled through Si Ashan and finally arrived north of Dishi City.
The castle covered the situation in Si Ashan well. The futile siege of the city on the 11th also made the Takeda army neglect the surrounding security. The Si Ashan direction, which was not the focus of the investigation, was even ignored.
Xiaopingta only brought five servings of dry food before leaving. Fortunately, he added two more days in Haijin City, otherwise the whole army might be out of stock when he arrived at Dishi City. It might be fine if he had to endure a day, but if the horse under his crotch didn't eat food for a day, he wouldn't even think about going to the battlefield.
In other words, Masara Takari occupied a fertile plain like Kawaakashima. Later, when Morigata could be transferred to Haijin, it was as much as 200,000 stones. Xiaoheita made him a trick of rice and beans, and he was rich and powerful.
"Can you try to contact Doctor Suda in the castle?" Xiaoheita put on a pergola and looked at the Tarshi Castle in the distance.
"It's not very good. The mountains and fields are everywhere in the southeast of the city. Along the Xichuan River, there are all Takeda troops, with a total of 17,800 people. The other two sides are completely cliffs and cannot be climbed at all." Takari Hidemasa shook his head.
"Triple thirty taels of gold, recruit warriors, climb the cliff with bare hands! Even if you die, you must send the news that reinforcements have arrived into the city!"
"I'm afraid it's not easy to swim in Xichuan first, and then hang it on the mountain wall with a straw rope!"
"Let's talk about it after asking, if you can't do it, think of other solutions!"
Of course it is difficult to enter the city, otherwise the Takeda army would not have been so difficult to attack. If it were simple, Xiaoping would have been fine.
"Danzheng! I'll go!" Aji suddenly appeared, and as the captain of the flag group, he also followed the army to join the army.
"Are you sure?"
"Do your best!"
"Okay! I'll write a letter, you put it in a cucumber bag and take it into the city and hand it over to the castle general Suda! If it does, let three long, two short, five smokes in the smoke tomorrow morning!"
"Let's go!" Aji packed Xiaopingta's letter, and then tied the bag to his body with a cowhide rope. The leather rope was extremely tight and even blood marks were printed.
Watching Aji, who was wearing only a pair of calves, jumped from the mountains and forests, and finally disappeared.
A strong attack is not enough to completely destroy the morale of the Takeda Army. If they can cooperate inside and outside, there is a possibility of twice the result with half the effort. The Toshishi Castle is full of relatives and friends of the Sakushi soldiers and people who were killed by the Takeda Army, and they have an irresistible hatred with Takeda Shingen. If they leave the city, they will definitely be the sharpest sharp knife, and they will never give up until the Takeda Army is wiped out.
With Takeda Shingen's ability, the formation of troops must be airtight, and it is only easy to deal with the enemy attacking on one side. Koheita was not sure to break the frontal defense of Takeda's army in one encounter. He needed both sides of Tyrshi Castle.
In ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad, no matter what army or how strong the commander is, he will inevitably panic when he is attacked from both sides. As long as the team is in chaos, it is Koheita's chance to win.
All that's left is waiting!
The autumn nights are always so cold and so deep. Fortunately, the Si Ashan Mountains are undulating and the elevation of the former mountain is 3,068 meters. Not to mention the smoke that makes fires in the valley, if you set fire directly in the valley, no one will see them. So even if there are hundreds of small fires for heating, people outside the mountain will not see them. Otherwise, the autumn wind will make a large number of people catch a cold.
Because they didn't bring cookware, everyone chewed fried rice with cold water, which was hard to swallow. Xiaoping was too intestines and was afraid that he would get sick again after eating it, so he picked up a few wild chestnuts in the mountains and roasted them in the firewood, and barely cushions.
Qigui held up his gun and kept staring at Dishicheng, hoping that the smoke of letters came from Dishicheng.
The morning sun is not warm at all. Many people blew the wind all night, and their hands and feet were numb, and they were roasting fire to warm their hands and feet. They could not move their bodies without moving, and they could not move their knives.
"They slammed and smoke rose in the city of Tinshi."
Hearing Qigui's shouting, Xiaopingtai and the generals of Qiben stood up one after another and looked at the Tyrshi City in the distance. The Tyrshi City on the cliff was particularly clear in the morning sun.
More than a dozen smoke from cooking stoves rose up, which was a rice ball that 500 people in the city needed to eat in a day. Now there is still firewood in the city. If the city siege for more than three months and the fuel in the city is used up, even if it is not necessary to eat raw rice and drink cold water.
Everyone looked at the smoke from cooking carefully, and finally a smoke from cooking behind the city broke out!
One long!
One long!
One long!
A short time!
A short time!
Everyone remained silent, staring at the smoke from cooking, and the needles could be heard.
Three long and two short!
It's done! Aji entered the city! Suda Manrai in Toshishi Castle received news that Yamauchi's army came to help and was willing to cooperate with Yamauchi's army to launch a decisive attack on Takeda's army!
"Danzheng! Aji succeeded! Danzheng!" Qigui said happily.
"Yes! Aji has entered the city!" Xiaopingta had tears in his eyes. He had been working hard for more than ten years and fought back and forth. Today, he finally ushered in the final decisive battle.
All the flag generals returned to the team, shouting that the soldiers were preparing horse harnesses, wearing armor, and eating dry food on their bodies. The warriors sharpened the tips of the submarine guns, tightened the bowstrings, and the fuses of the iron cannon were all lit.
Ready!
Qigui tied Xiaopingta's Qiancheng Jinzhuo's horse bang tightly on his body, and the two little flags held one left and one right and used a long rope to pull him left and right. Today's horse bang was particularly taller with Nanzhu, just to let Tyū Castle and Takeda Army see clearly.
My Fujiwara bomb is just here!
Guonosuke and Yu Kamemaru took out the Nanman body and put it on for Xiao Heitai. The two little boys were already looking like a little adult, and even soft fluff appeared on their lips. They are twelve years old, and now they are already in battle.
"Kuangnosuke, Yu Kame, today is the first formation for you two. Do you know if you follow me in the battle later?"
"Yes, sir!"
…………
The Takeda army outside the mountain started a completely useless siege again day after day. Shinno, like cannon fodder, carried the steep slope with his feet and pushed the steep trees halfway up the mountain. The arched feet of the Suruga people rushed up the slope and fired fire arrows into the city.
The generals of Takeda Army at the foot of the mountain have actually no longer had expectations for completely conquering Tyrshi Castle in a short period of time, but Tyrshi Castle is so important. If the attack is fierce for a few more days, the soldiers and horses in the city will be tired and can try to send people into the city to persuade them to surrender. This is also a great victory.
Once the Tyrshi Castle was taken, all the small counties fell into the hands of Takeda, and Ueno was also looking forward to it!
Chapter completed!
