Chapter 299
Akechi Mitsuhide's worries were not without reason.
Perhaps it is because they are also people who traveled from later generations, Matsunaga Hideo and Saburo have a different love for iron cannons than people of this era-Michi Saito, who crossed over before them and fell one step before them San also loves iron cannons very much, but in the era of Saito Dosan, the development of iron cannons is not satisfactory, so Saito Dosan is quite reserved even in the purchase of iron cannons.Compared with him, Matsunaga Hideo and Saburo one have weapons beyond the times and are familiar with the lethality that iron cannons will bring, so they have invested in iron cannons; Under the bombing, he yearned for and loved this type of weapon. For this reason, he even accepted Kunitomo Tojiro and gave him funds and blessings so that the other party could develop the casting process of iron cannons with peace of mind.
In this Warring States period, Saburo was not the only one who could see the prospect of iron cannons.However, there are very few people who are willing to spend a lot of money to buy iron cannons in this era-even the Zahezhong who are superb in the use of iron cannons in this era are just purely buying and using them, and using manpower to make up for them. The shortcomings of the iron cannon's range and accuracy, not the iron cannon itself.After the Battle of Nagashino, in which Saburo almost used iron cannons to establish victory, almost all the daimyos hoarded iron cannons, except for those who originally bought a large number of iron cannons.
These people include Oda, Zaga, and Song Yongxiu.
The iron cannon is not unknown, but it is expensive and can only be used as an auxiliary in combat most of the time, so it is not very popular.With Matsunaga Hide's ability to quickly judge the situation, Akechi Mitsuhide also felt that the other party had seen the advantages and prospects of the Iron Cannon early on, so they would hoard them. Ordinary dexterity is only used step by step to assist.Mitsuhide Akechi didn't think there was any problem with this at first, but after realizing that Hideo Matsunaga was actually a person from later generations, and seeing Hideo Matsunaga's small, weird and powerful "iron cannon", Mitsuhide Akechi began to speculate that Matsunaga Hide might not be bad at iron cannons, but that the "iron cannons" of this era have too obvious disadvantages compared with the "iron cannons" he carried with him. While hoarding a large number of iron cannons, they are more inclined to fight with cold weapons.
It is these iron cannons that Akechi Mitsuhide has been secretly worried about lately.
Even though Matsunaga Hideo has his own preference in battle, but the Oda Army has already approached Shigiyama Castle, even if Matsunagahide may not want to continue to fight to the death, he will not just wait for death.Nobukiyama Castle was built under the supervision of Matsunaga Hideo himself. The stone wall is so dense and compact that it is rare in this era. In terms of defense alone, it is not much inferior to Gifu Castle.In the wall on the stone wall, there are too many narrow spaces, and it is almost difficult to find any blind spots, and the army of the Oda family is surrounding the city. If Matsunaga Hide wants to, use iron cannons from the narrow spaces. The attack caused far more damage to Oda than the current tens or hundreds.But in fact, it was Matsunaga Hideo who seemed to have forgotten that he was still holding a large number of iron cannons, and only used bows and arrows to repel the Oda army, and even went out of the city to face-to-face hand-to-hand combat with the Oda family.
... The amount of gunpowder that can be accumulated by those iron cannons alone is already very impressive.
But just as he couldn't tell Oda Nobutada and Saburo that Matsunaga Hide may have had a death wish—it was also impossible for him to conclude that the other party was planning some kind of conspiracy just because Matsunaga Hide held a large amount of iron cannon|powder|powder.Apart from suggesting that Oda Nobutada temporarily besiege Shigiyama Castle from a distance, Akechi Mitsuhide had no good solution for a while.
However, Akechi Mitsuhide did not think of a way to break through Nobukiyama Castle, but Oda Nobutada has already found a breakthrough.
——This breakthrough, of course, came from the Matsunaga vassal who Akechi Mitsuhide reported to Saburo and fell into the hands of Sakuma Nobumori.
Occasionally, he can keep up with Saburo's thinking, but it is difficult to guess Matsunaga's thinking because they are not very familiar with each other. Akechi Mitsuhide doesn't know what Matsunaga is secretly planning, but at least it is about being woven this time. He had guessed the origin of the people captured by Tian——Matsunaga Hideo’s retainer Mori Jiujiu, who escaped from the city with the mission of asking for help from Mori and Honganji, did not receive Matsunagahide’s signal, but He left the city without authorization out of his own sense of crisis.
Even if his original intention was to ask for reinforcements, this behavior of fleeing itself proved his strong desire to survive.After receiving Saburo's guarantee about the famous tea set "Ping Spider", Oda Nobutada immediately started to attack Mori Kojiu, and soon Mori Kojiu was willing to surrender Oda, and was willing to serve as the internal support of the Oda family after replying to Guishan Castle. broken city.
Oda Nobutada is not a reckless person after all.He patiently delayed for a while, and on October [-]th, he launched an attack on Xingui Mountain City in one fell swoop.With this time difference, no one doubted the authenticity of the "reinforcements" Mori had brought back for a long time, and in just a blink of an eye, Sannomaru of Shigiyama Castle had fallen! !
At about this time, Matsunaga Hideo finally appeared on the castle tower, facing Saburo from afar.
The castle tower of Shigui Mountain Castle is also a rare height in this era - if Saburo's Azuchi Castle is completed, the tower may be higher than Shigui Mountain Castle.Matsunaga Hideo on the high tower was not wearing the same thick armor as Saburo, but casually wore a simple kimono in daily life, with a gorgeous coat on his shoulders. The appearance of the wind blowing slightly, unexpectedly also has the sad beauty of flowers that seem to wither in the wind - even so, with Song Yongjiu's tall and burly figure, and sharp-edged facial features that almost have the word "violent" written on it, it is still beautiful. There is a clear and distinct centipede-like long scar spanning most of the face, which is really insulated from Fengya just like Saburo.
"Nobunaga!" He was not close to Saburo, and the loud voice when he exited reached Saburo, but it was barely audible, "This time, you kid——you did such a good job!!"
What he said were lines of praise, but anyone could see that at this moment, Song Yongxiu, who was still contemptuous of Saburo, had not actually compromised with Saburo's victory.
"—I'm already here! Mr. Matsunaga, come down and surrender!!"
The attention of the retainers was never on the same point, and Saburo didn't care about Matsunaga Hideo's contemptuous address as usual, and he yelled on his own.
"What nonsense?" Song Yongxiu sneered at his speech, "I have no obligation to work under you all the time."
His eyes moved away from Saburo, who was wearing a gorgeous cloak with complicated patterns and was conspicuous no matter how you look at it. Sure enough, right next to Saburo, he saw a man wearing a full suit of armor, whose plain white face scarf was even more dazzling under the dark contrast of the armor. Mitsuhide Akechi.
"—You'd better be careful, don't lead wolves into the house." He muttered to himself, "However, I have no obligation to remind you. Anyway, in this era, what kind of ending will be up to you. It's up to what you've done."
Matsunaga Hide's hand was pinched on the gun he brought when he crossed, and even his index finger was on the trigger.But his eyes only wandered between Saburo and Akechi Mitsuhide for a moment, then he let go of his hand neatly, and with a heroic laugh, he threw the things in his hand far away.
"I don't care whether you can take it or not. After all, I should decide where to go with the things I brought!"
Because of the change of mood, he lowered his voice a little when he followed San Lang's speech before, and only a few vague words remained in San Lang's ears.But after he threw the gun, he mistakenly thought that it might be a hidden weapon, and everyone who was full of vigilance stared at him closely. His subsequent words after laughing seemed to suddenly become louder, as if It echoed in everyone's ears like thunder!
Without staying too long, Matsunaga Hideo's tall figure flashed into the sliding door on the topmost floor of the castle tower, which was almost invisible.
Oda Nobutada held the rein, and couldn't see what kind of intention Matsunaga Hideo's strange speech represented.He waited on the spot for a while, the horse under him seemed to be snorting impatiently from its nose, and its head shook violently from side to side.The current governor of the Oda family first looked at his nominal father, only to see that although Saburo was staring intently at the place where Matsunaga Hide disappeared, his old-fashioned face was full of distress, but he didn't seem to have any intention of giving orders , is simply embarrassing for Matsunaga Hideo's ignorance of current affairs.
For some reason, Oda Nobutada suddenly settled down.
He raised the picker, and ordered in a deep voice: "Now——advance!!"
Almost at the moment when Oda Nobutada's words just came out, a sound as loud as thunder, but louder than the movement caused by thunder suddenly exploded in front of them! !
Countless black smoke emerged from the high castle castle, and there were flickering fires hidden in the smoke.It seems that in the blink of an eye, the flames overwhelmed the black smoke and drove them into the wind. The blazing orange-red engulfed the sky guard completely, and the seemingly indestructible tower that was still standing high was drained at a fast speed. Without the energy inside, it was still standing dry and precariously on the ground.
The stone wall has been broken under the impact of the explosion, and countless rubbles are like projectiles, hidden weapons, and sharp knives, smashing towards Oda's house one after another. The horses are frightened by the loud explosion, their front hooves raised high, with a panicked expression. The cries kept coming and going, almost making the rider unable to control it—or, in other words, some people were already unable to control it!
Among the countless broken stones, the sharp blade seemed to be able to penetrate everything, and stretched out from the gap between the stones, pointing directly at Saburo who was calming the horse...
That's the familiar, time-traveling army.
"The first troop and the second troop go out!"
"Capture them for me!"
At the same time, the voices of Swordsman and Akechi Mitsuhide overlapped!
The young man covered with a veil subconsciously stretched out a hand in front of Saburo. Even though the horse under him was not stable, he made a decision at the first moment. The soldiers under Akechi Mitsuhide ordered.
The men with swords and swords had already entered the state of "going out" the moment the voice of Hasebe's words fell, and their slender figures shuttled vigorously among ashigaru or horses, passing Saburo and Mitsuhide Akechi in an instant. Go to the forefront to face the time-traveling army.In Akechi Mitsuhide's eyes, the figure of the man with the sword wielding his sword was clearly visible, but he still persistently blocked Saburo with his hands, his eyes as cold as water in a cold pool.
"—capture these enemies for me."
Akechi Mitsuhide said that again.
The soldiers who had crowded behind Akechi Mitsuhide also calmed down the restless horses, and drove forward abruptly, obeying Akechi Mitsuhide's order, facing the gravel that was still falling down on their heads and face, brandishing their weapons and facing the time-traveling army.
Surprised or not!Not surprisingly!Not happy!
Backward Time Army: Be silly, we are here for this.
Sword Man: Can't afford to provoke, society, society.
I did not find the layout of Xingui Mountain City, so the description of the city in this chapter actually borrowed the appearance of Duowen Mountain City (rumored).
In addition to iron cannons, there were baked jade... until I saw that baked jade was a weapon developed to deal with the iron-clad ship that Oda Nobunaga asked Kuki Yoshitaka to build.
...It's a deep hatred, it is.
