Cao Cao received Lu Xuan's order and immediately informed him.
The soldier got the order and shouted: "Tokugawa Ieyasu, your granary has been burned."
With a very simple sentence, the shouts soared into the sky outside the city, echoed endlessly, and even reached the top of the city tower clearly.
Tokugawa Ieyasu heard the shouting. Although it was shouted in Japanese language and sounded strange and awkward, at least it was clearly expressed. Tokugawa Ieyasu suddenly looked towards the fire burning in the city and the thick smoke rising into the sky.
My heart sank to the bottom.
The granary in the back suddenly caught fire!
The granary is the top priority.
With sufficient food, Tokugawa Ieyasu was calm and able to fight a protracted war with Lu Xuan. Without food, the morale of the army would collapse.
"Tsukama Kazuo, where did you die?"
Tokugawa Ieyasu looked around and shouted loudly.
However, there was no answer from Tsukaima Kazuo.
Tokugawa Ieyasu searched around again, but could not find Tsukaima Kazuo. A thought suddenly came up in Tokugawa Ieyasu's heart. The granary was in charge of Tsukaima Kazuo. Now that the granary was on fire and Tsukauma Kazuo disappeared again, could it be that Tsukaima Kazuo had betrayed him?
he.
Tokugawa Ieyasu thought about countless possibilities, but finally found that thinking about them was meaningless.
A fire broke out in the granary, and an army of more than 100,000 people was deprived of food. They might be able to rely on their willpower to support them on the first day, but what would they do on the second day?
Lu Xuan's method is to hit the snake seven inches away!
Hit him in the weak spot with a stick.
Too cruel!
Tokugawa Ieyasu's mind was buzzing. He looked at the countless soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who were being killed outside the city. Hearing the shouts of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty outside the city, he fell into a daze.
"kill!"
A shout came.
Tokugawa Ieyasu suddenly woke up, and when he came to his senses, he instantly saw a Ming army soldier coming towards him with a sword.
A cold light flashed across Tokugawa Ieyasu's eyes, his right hand rested on the sword at his waist, and he exerted force instantly.
Sonorous!
The cold light flashed, and Tokugawa Ieyasu's katana struck down as fast as lightning.
Zhila!
The blade struck the Ming soldiers, breaking their armor, and beheaded the Ming soldiers who were close to him.
Tokugawa Ieyasu's martial arts has always been very strong. At this time, although he was busy running the place all day long, his martial arts was not neglected and he practiced martial arts diligently. He didn't look strong, but his physical fitness was very strong.
Facing elite soldiers, Tokugawa Ieyasu was not afraid either.
Tokugawa Ieyasu killed the approaching Ming soldiers one after another. Looking at the panicked soldiers on the tower and the many Japanese soldiers arrayed in the city who had not yet participated in the battle, he found that some people were already fleeing in all directions.
The granaries burned and the army collapsed.
People's hearts are scattered.
Therefore, the soldiers kept fleeing.
Tokugawa Ieyasu felt disappointed and knew that he was completely defeated. He fought for a while longer and destroyed the approaching Ming army. After sighing, he quietly led his men to evacuate.
He retreated without fanfare.
Even so, a large number of people followed and retreated.
When Tokugawa Ieyasu retreated, he still released a substitute, wearing the same armor as him, especially Tokugawa Ieyasu's emperor's flag was also nearby. As for Tokugawa Ieyasu himself, he quietly changed into samurai uniforms and was not far away wearing ordinary clothes.
Followed by retreat.
Tokugawa Ieyasu's retreat was to break out from the east gate. When Tokugawa Ieyasu and his party left the east gate, the substitute was killed, a large number of Ming troops gathered, and a large number of Ming troops surrounded them.
Tokugawa Ieyasu led a few people, looked at the substitute who was trapped in the sea of people, and changed his position from the east gate direction to go north.
He walked through the east gate on purpose.
If he goes to the east gate, Lu Xuan's army will gather in the direction of the east gate. If he goes directly to the north gate and breaks out from the north gate, too many people will gather in the direction of the north gate, and he will be unable to evacuate.
Tokugawa Ieyasu headed north excitedly.
All the way north, although there were a few Ming army soldiers guarding and encircling them. However, these Ming soldiers were small in number and could not stop them in time, nor could they pose a threat to Tokugawa Ieyasu, so Tokugawa Ieyasu successfully broke through.
Tokugawa Ieyasu ran a certain distance and stopped without seeing his pursuers. He turned around and looked at Kyoto, which was still billowing with thick smoke, with unprecedented resentment in his eyes.
This battle was so unfairly defeated.
If his granary is stable, has sufficient food and grass, and has a large number of elite soldiers, it is impossible for him to have problems and he will not be defeated directly.
"Tsukama Kazuo, you are so disappointing."
Tokugawa Ieyasu gritted his teeth and spoke.
At this moment, Tokugawa Ieyasu wanted to kill someone and killed Tsukauma Kazuo in revenge.
He thought of Lu Xuan again.
Although desperate and helpless, Tokugawa Ieyasu did not give up.
After some thought, Tokugawa Ieyasu said with sharp eyes: "Lu Xuan, although you won the victory, I escaped. As long as I am still alive and hiding in the mountains to avoid you, I will definitely be able to use the people of Japan to help me."
Come back again."
"Boom!!!"
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came from far and near.
The sound of horse hooves vibrated more and more fiercely.
Under such a premise, Tokugawa Ieyasu's heart suddenly became nervous, and he suddenly looked in the direction where the sound of horse hooves came from. In an instant, he saw a group of cavalry coming.
The leader is clearly Ma Chao.
Ma Chao did not participate in the war and had been hiding on the outside, waiting for Tokugawa Ieyasu to break out.
Now that Tokugawa Ieyasu has escaped, Ma Chao has a chance. Before joining the war, Ma Chao was worried, fearing that the army led by Lu Xuan had already won the victory in Kyoto County and killed Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Fortunately, Tokugawa Ieyasu 'lived up to everyone's expectations' and escaped after all.
Ma Chao's eyes were filled with anticipation. He now hoped to capture Tokugawa Ieyasu, which would be his final achievement in unifying Japan.
"kill!"
Ma Chao roared loudly.
He patted the horse's back, speeding up faster and faster, and the surrounding cavalry quickly followed up.
The distance between the two sides quickly closed.
Tokugawa Ieyasu once again lost his mind when he looked at the incoming cavalry team. If the food and grass were burned, it was the first time that he collapsed. Now that he was surrounded again, Tokugawa Ieyasu's mood began to collapse.
Tokugawa Ieyasu glanced around.
After this Ming Dynasty cavalry came, they were already adjusting their formation. They all dispersed and surrounded them in an arc fan shape.
Tokugawa Ieyasu's troops were not large and he could not charge forward, so he had to retreat.
If you don't retreat, you have no chance.
But once he retreats, and Lu Xuan's army is behind him, he still has no chance.
This is a desperate situation.
"Kill out!"
Tokugawa Ieyasu made his decision instantly.
If there is no way, just find a way. Many people have forgotten that when Tokugawa Ieyasu established himself, he relied on his own martial arts to kill chickens and scare monkeys, subdue all the Japanese, and make the Japanese obedient to achieve unprecedented achievements.
Many people forget that he can fight and kill people.
Tokugawa Ieyasu charged with his katana, and the ninja warriors around him also charged together.
The two sides were less than a hundred steps away when they met in an instant.
Tokugawa Ieyasu sat astride the horse with his legs. After stabilizing his body, he held the katana in both hands and swung it out.
