Beiyang new warlord

The little people in front of the hall immediately bowed their heads and backed away, and hurried out the door. After a while, they ran back with panic on their faces.

"General! The Tang thieves have attacked the city, and the southeast area is full of flames!"

"what?"

Tokugawa Iemitsu suddenly stood up, and the two old ghosts, Masakatsu Inaba and Yukinari Aoyama, turned their heads in disbelief, and shouted involuntarily.

Nothing is impossible, tigers hurt people, and people also want to fight tigers! It's just that Aoyama Xingcheng took the upper-level route to stabilize Mao Jue, the leader of the Dongjiang army, and taking advantage of this opportunity, the lower-level soldiers acted like bee chrysalis .

Do you think wine is free to drink, cigarettes are free to smoke! Money is free to earn?

Taking advantage of the contact with these peddlers, with a few casual words, where the reinforcements came, where the samurai masters got together, and where there was a boat, they were caught out one after another.

If the Dongjiang Army was in full condition, the outer city defenses of Edo City would be scumbags, but now Mao Jue can be regarded as half disabled, and the low city walls of the Japanese are nothing, but this rushing and fast moat river is really It made him embarrassed, it was unrealistic to fill the trenches, and if he wanted to break through the outer city, he had to attack from Xingqiao Gate if there were no ships.

But Mao Jue had already lost a lot in the battle of Yunmu Mountain. He didn't want to fight anymore. Fortunately, Qingshan managed to stabilize him these few days. He was also secretly looking for a fighter, and sure enough, he found it!

Edo Castle is almost at the mouth of the Sumida River. The reason why the Tsukiji Market behind the Kobashi Gate is called Tsukiji Market is because the area is almost an estuary delta created by impact. On land, Edo Castle is full of ravines. The defense is tight, but the shogunate is far behind in terms of defensive offensive and military strength. These days, Liu Xingzuo and Liu Xingxian have been collecting ships nearby. They just had dinner in the evening. The lazy Dongjiang army suddenly came like a wolf. Attacking in that way, the second regiment took the main attack and rowed to Tsukuda Island, the outer island of Edo. Caught off guard by the Japanese, they easily captured the other palace of the shogunate here, which is also the Mihama Palace of the Buddhist temple.

When Tokugawa Iemitsu found out just now, Mao Jue had already advanced rapidly, captured the undefended Shibaguchi gate, sent the house to the bridge gate, and entered Osaka Castle.

Half of the city was illuminated by the flames of war. On the street, the flustered shogunate bannermen held their knives forward, yelling and cursing for their subordinates to charge, and holding trembling bamboo super long guns, they retreated from the Xingqiao Gate in a panic. The samurai ran out of the street panting, trying to stop the Dongjiang army from attacking.

Seeing this scene, Pang Dahai, who was ordering the building, couldn't help but sneered, and also pulled out his saber suddenly. The sergeant in front half knelt on the ground with a clatter, and the one behind put the gun on their shoulders, looking at the hedgehog. In the Oda family's big spear formation, which also made them suffer so much a few days ago, every Dongjiang army had a grim smile on their faces.

In street and street battles, there is too little room to maneuver. There was a burst of gunfire, and the front row of the Japanese army was directly pierced. The dense guns fell to the ground, and a thick layer of samurai corpses fell directly at the entrance of the street. , Before the samurai corps who came for support woke up, holding bayonets, the soldiers of the Dongjiang Army charged wildly with bayonets.

Lao Tzu is better at fighting than you, you will be finished if you get close!

In the sound of puffing, a samurai was knocked into the corner of the wall twenty times a beat, and was directly stabbed to death on it. A samurai on the other side threw his inconvenient spear before he panicked, pulled out his knife, and puffed out his bayonet. It had already stuck in his chest, picked him up alive, and threw him out with a scream.

This is the army that Mao Jue wants, war-thirsty, at the front, Pang Dahai looks like a big pirate, with a knife in his right hand and a musket in his left hand, the revolver that is close to him sprays and slashes with a knife, and when he runs out of bullets, he goes back Some soldiers handed it over to him, and cut down half a street in succession, none of them could resist this kind of hooliganism.

But when he was on the verge of killing and laughing wildly, the rear army of the Japanese warriors who barely supported them suddenly became chaotic, and amidst the hasty hooves of the horses, they raised high the sabers that were glowing red under the firelight.

Facing the infantry, these warriors dared to hold on, but when they were charged by the cavalry behind them, the banner team of thousands of people collapsed directly. Without swinging the bloody knives, they were dragged directly by the horses. Behind, the Iron Gunner, who hadn't had time to play, was scraped by Cyclonus like wheat.

"What the hell are you doing? If you don't hit you, why come here to disturb me?"

This is all military merit!Seeing that Liu Xingzuo's military achievements were reaped by him as soon as he made a move, Pang Dahai jumped his feet in anger, but he raised his saber high, but Liu Xingzuo shouted triumphantly.

"The general has an order! All the ministries should speed up. You must arrive at the gate of the Chaye Bridge in 10 minutes. The general is right behind. If you don't accept it, you can tell the general!"

Said, urging the cavalry, Liu Xingzuo laughed wildly and ran forward again. On the street not far away, he could hear the roar of the cavalry and the screams of the dying, and he turned his head suddenly. pat on the head.

Under the light of the fire, a large flag with hair characters was not far away from him like a white banner calling back souls.

"attack!!!"

2 Chapter [-]. Repeat History

Not only these bastards are passionate, but also Mao Jue himself, Edo, the Dongjiang of later generations, why did he come in.

There are no laws of war these days, and they don't care about civilian casualties.With the experience of fighting Nagasaki last time, all the armies set fire while marching. From Edo Bridge to Shibaguchi Gate, everything they saw was a blaze. Surrounded by divisions, the rest was actually blocked by the fire. In the thick smoke, the proud warrior coughed and fled.

The flanks were blocked with fire, and the forward units just rushed forward. In the second hour of the battle, the main forces of the four thousand pairs of Dongjiang had already penetrated indiscriminately. In front of the gate, dense blacksmith shops gather here one by one, and after passing the gate, there are all cloth shops and money shops, and further forward, there is the Honmaru Imperial Palace of Edo Castle, which is like a giant castle tower. Crouching under eyelids.

It's just that here is the end point of Mao Jue tonight. In front of him, the shogunate samurai who came to support with torches are getting more and more dense, and the solid city defense under the castle tower is much stronger than the Guo Fang outside. The perforations in the wall are densely packed with black iron cannons. After all, it is the capital of the Tokugawa family, the core, and there is nothing to say about defense.

Besides, even if Honmaru was captured at the risk of astonishing casualties, it would be impossible for the Tokugawa Shogunate to be wiped out all at once. Mao Jue was already very satisfied after fighting here.

Amidst the sound of falling tiles, the Dongjiang musketeers climbed onto the roof of the house and shot at the large contingent of warriors rushing over from a distance. On both sides of the gate of the Blacksmith Bridge, teams of elite soldiers and horses kicked open the doors one by one. Seeing people arresting people, seeing things packed up, the army began to turn to defense.

After this effort, the team finally caught up. Pushing on the smooth bluestone road of the Japanese, the two big black guys gave off a wet and shiny light.

Mao Liying, who was in charge of the supervisor, was so excited that she almost floated, and she pushed the cannon to Mao Jue herself, and immediately knelt down heavily on one knee.

"My lord, the cannon has arrived, please order!"

It's no wonder this girl is so excited. During the battle of the Toyotomi family's demise and the Osaka Winter Battle, the Toyotomi family's cannonball bombarded the Toyotomi family's castle tower, forcing the Yododen mother and son to make peace with the Tokugawa family, and had to agree Ping Haogou's humiliating request, now Feng Shui turns, and it's her "Toyotomi family"'s turn to bombard the Tokugawa family to avenge this arrow.

Not only her, but the entire Toyotomi family survivors were like this. These two cannons were dragged to Tsukudo Island by the Kumano pirates on the shoulders of their boats.

Mao Jue naturally wouldn't pour cold water on this rare opportunity to buy people's hearts. Looking at the cannon, he immediately pulled out his knife and pointed at the magnificent castle tower in front of him.

"fire!"

"Hay!"

Under the guidance of muttering Sun Chun, the crank was connected to the rattling iron chain to shake down the cannon body, and there was no need to consider the problem of aiming. The Tokugawa Iemoto Maru was more than 500 meters away, and the huge castle tower was on the way. Standing in front of the muzzle, this distance can even be called a flat shot.

A foot-long shrapnel shell from Mao Jue's famous guy was stuffed into the barrel of the gun. With a curse of gnashing teeth, Mao Liying personally moved the flintlock, and the huge vibration shook the nearby houses. Several pieces fell off, and as Mao Jue looked around, the representative of the highest power in the shogunate suddenly "screamed and roared" twice, and two huge holes were opened in it.

What Mao Jue didn't know was that his two cannonballs almost changed history and ended the war ahead of schedule. It was still the castle tower palace, where several minor servants fell to the ground, and one of the two Tokugawa retainers died. One arm, one without a leg, fell to the ground and groaned in pain, one of the copper lamps beside him was smashed, the large general's robe was covered with blood, and his face jumped up, Tokugawa Iemitsu was inconceivable Looking at the front.

It was his fate. Mao Jue’s shrapnel shells are usually used to hit targets at a distance of 1000 to 2000 meters, but this time it was only 500 meters. The projectile smashed through several layers of fragile wooden walls of the castle tower and smashed into the imperial palace. , but the fuze has not burned to the place.

This gave the little people around him, the imperial samurai a chance, and a dozen personal guards immediately formed a human wall to block Tokugawa Iemitsu, and then the shrapnel exploded.

But even so, Tokugawa Iemitsu is completely stupid. He is different from his father Tokugawa Hidetada. He is a real official of the third generation. The Sekigahara War was over when he was born. He has never experienced that dayless In the era of no war, it was the first time that people were so close to death.

Not only him, Aoyama Yukunari, Inaba Masakatsu and those old middle schoolers almost peed their pants. They were stunned for two or three seconds. Inaba Masakatsu roared like a pig being killed.

"Come on, find the Tang thief's gunner immediately, and kill the Tang thief's big tube, go!"

Mao Jue's shot didn't succeed, on the contrary, it actually caused trouble. Originally, more than 1 Tokugawa family's banner troops could not get out of this shot, just like digging an ant's nest, thousands of troops immediately opened up All the city gates rushed out with weapons in their hands, and Da Dahai, who had set up a defensive position in front of the gate of the Blacksmith Bridge, felt the pressure for the first time.

The shogunate army, who had been crushed by the firecrackers hidden on the wall just now, suddenly rushed out of the street with more than 100 iron gunners, and they were dying. The dark muzzles of the guns directly aimed at the shops on both sides of the road Gai bangs past.

After all, there are hundreds of shots!There was a crash, the roof of some unlucky cloth shop collapsed, and Pang Dahai sat on the ground with his buttocks, and fell more than three meters, almost breaking his femur, clutching his buttocks, Angrily, he yelled and cursed.

"Where the hell are there so many dwarves! Oops~"

At the entrance of the alley, there was another burst of fire and gunfire. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the iron gunners of the Japanese army to reload, the Dongjiang fusiliers who were squatting in the house fought back and killed a dozen of them, and beat those iron gunners back. A large group of bannermen wore white belts on their heads, and rushed up holding the sword and screaming, standing up against the wall by force, and came to the front with the sword, Pang Hai's old face was also a little dignified.

Holding the revolver in his left hand and firing a few shots, he suddenly turned his head and yelled at the soldiers around him.

"Notify the general, the Japanese reinforcements have arrived, please give me instructions!"

"As ordered!"

While shouting loudly, he took out a red feather and stuck it on his helmet, and the three soldiers turned around and ran back.

At this time, Mao Jue has already opened four holes for the Tokugawa Otenshu. In the era of cold weapons, this kind of tall fort watchtower is simply invincible. It is so condescending that thousands of arrows are fired at it. But in front of the cannon, it is purely a big handle.

Seeing the fifth and sixth shells being taken out of the box and just about to be stuffed into the barrel, the three Hongling messengers ran up without them coming to report, Mao Jue shook his head in surprise.

"Such a block!"
