"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Ten cannons spit out tongues of fire at the same time. Although the accuracy of the Fran cannon is not very good at long distances, it is unreasonable to be unable to hit such a large city wall.

The solid cannonballs hit the city wall firmly, causing rubble to fly and cracks in the city wall. The soldiers on the top of the city were so frightened that they ran to the bottom of the city. The bombardment of this kind of cannonball would cause the city wall to collapse in just a few hits.

.

"Go down! Go down!" Mouri Xiuyuan ordered in a hoarse voice.

The other side has cannons, so it is useless how many people are standing on the city wall at this time. It is better to go down to the city, wait for the city wall to be blown out of the gap, and lead people to block the gap to prevent the enemy from entering the city.

He only has 2,000 men under his command, and they must not be wasted on the city wall.

After hearing Mouri Hidemoto's order, the soldiers quickly ran down the city wall along the horse path.

When the first cannon sounded, Li Xiao was observing the opponent's military formation. He did not have a telescope, so he could only observe visually. When he discovered that the enemy had arranged all their artillery on the left wing, he did not understand why.

The other side wants to place the artillery in that damn place.

The artillery "boomed" and "boomed", Li Xiao quickly reacted. The opponent was going to attack Hagi Castle. As long as he attacked Hagi Castle, Maori Terumoto would definitely return to the army for rescue. If he took advantage of the chaos of the army to attack with the whole army.

Then Maori Terumoto will definitely be defeated, and his own military formation may also be affected and overwhelmed by the defeated Maori army.

What a calculation!

He didn't know who the opponent's general was, but Li Xiao knew that this guy still had some strategies.

"Have you seen the opponent's heavy armored cavalry? Shoot it!" Li Xiao pointed at the heavy armored cavalry preparing to charge into the formation and said to the gunner beside him.

The place where the heavy armored cavalry is located is out of reach of the mortars. But the bronze cannon is no problem. It is loaded with explosive shells. After a little aiming, the bronze cannon roars.

The cannonball came out of the barrel with a whistle and exploded among the crowd of heavily armored cavalry.

More than a dozen heavily armored cavalrymen fell under their horses like dumplings.

"Master, Terumoto Mouri has mobilized his entire army." Li Xiao was about to inform Terumoto Mouri that he could handle the opponent's artillery. Terumoto Mouri had already ordered his entire army to move towards Hagi Castle.

Hagi Castle is the last habitat of the Mori family, and all of Mori Terumoto's family members are inside, and absolutely no mistakes are allowed.

"Attack!" Almost at the same time that Mouri Terumoto's army was shaking, Wakisaka Anji also gave the order to charge. The two cannons just exploded in the crowd of heavy armored cavalry, and they also exploded in Wakisaka Anji's heart.

These heavy armored cavalry have been trained since they were children to become what they are today. Wakisaka Anji would be heartbroken if he died, let alone a dozen of them in this instant.

The opposing general is a battlefield genius, and he has already understood his intentions. As long as he defeats or severely damages the heavy armored cavalry, it doesn't matter even if the walls of Hagi Castle are blown into sieves. As long as he threatens Anji Saka and dares to enter the city, Mouri Terumoto's

The army will cut off his retreat from behind.

Instead of standing there and being beaten, it is better to bite the bullet and charge forward. If he retreats at this time, how will he face the likes of Takenaka Shigeharu and Kato Yoshiaki when he goes back. Thinking about his bad attitude towards them, Wakisaka Anji thought

Slap yourself in the mouth.

The heavily armored cavalry and their horses were covered in heavy armor, and they charged with thunderous force. Bows, arrows and crossbows had very little damage to them. This type of soldier was once the king of the battlefield and had dominated the West for thousands of years.

"Mortar, five rapid fire rounds. Fire!" Li Xiao estimated the distance and immediately ordered the mortar to fire.

After giving way to the hundreds of horses in the lead, the mortars roared and hit the ground. They cut the heavy armored cavalry formation in half. Shrapnel and flames continued to fly in the air. The steaming smoke covered the sky!

No matter how thick and heavy the armor is, no matter how high the martial arts skills are and how sophisticated the weapons are, it will all be in vain. As long as the flying shrapnel hits the human body, the armor that looks very strong will turn into pieces of paper!

"Calibrate the Zhuyuan and fire twenty rounds rapidly." Li Xiao once again revised the shooting at the Zhuyuan, and this time the cannonballs were fired more accurately.

The heavily armored knights who had passed through the mortar fire net were a little confused. They didn't know whether they should continue the attack or organize a retreat at this time.

Time did not allow them to continue to be stunned. The trebuchet threw explosive packets weighing 25 kilograms and exploded around them one after another. From a distance of more than a thousand meters, the strong explosion still made Li Xiao feel suffocated.

The sound of explosion caused the horses behind them to retreat one after another.

The knights in armor were blown up into the sky more than ten meters high, and they danced like a trapeze in the sky. A large number of knights fell to the ground, and many of them had no scars on their bodies. But a lot of blood spurted out from their mouths and noses, and they

He was beaten to death.

Although the exterior is still intact, the internal organs have been shattered by the strong explosion shock wave.

"Onboard!" Those who were still alive wielded their cross guns and charged frantically toward Li Xiao's military formation. They knew that staying here would mean death. If they rushed forward, there might be a way to survive.

At least if you rush forward, you still have a chance to exchange one life for another.

"Were the Takeda cavalry back then so tough?" After Li Xiao finished speaking, no one paid any attention to him. He looked back and found that Man Gui was comforting his horse!

Playing the harp to an ox! This bastard has no idea what Takeda Cavalry is or what three-stage attack is.

But this is very simple, just let someone teach him a lesson.

There were not many heavy armored cavalry left, about two hundred. The remaining ones were either blocked outside the fire net, or were torn to pieces by mortars when they tried to rush over.

In order to increase the impact, two hundred heavily armored cavalry advanced in a line formation. The sun shone on the sharp spear tips, emitting a cold light.

What a lovely person! Don’t forget to maximize the impact of the heavy cavalry at this time. Unfortunately, they are facing hundreds of Mini rifles equipped with dummy bullets.

Armor that could withstand bows, arrows, swords and axes was like pieces of paper in front of dummy bullets. Hundreds of rifles sprayed hot bullets and hit them hard!

Blood and armor fragments flew everywhere, and the horses and men neighed in pain.

The last guy fell about a hundred meters in front of Li Xiao. One of his legs and arms was broken. The war horse was killed, and he crawled on the ground with his remaining arm.

The climb was very difficult, leaving shocking traces of blood behind me.

But he kept crawling until he finally became motionless. Even when he died, he still held the katana in his hand.

"Stop mortar shooting!" The barrage shooting caused too much ammunition consumption, and Li Xiao had to order to stop shooting.

Anji Wakisaka looked at the battlefield in pain. The last blood of the Takeda Cavalry died in the hands of firearms. The battlefield was even more miserable than when the Takeda Cavalry was destroyed!

Broken corpses are scattered on the bloody battlefield. That is the backbone of his own strength, Wakisaka Anji knows. From today on, he will no longer be a powerful daimyo in Japan. The last bloodline of the Takeda family will also be reduced to any

Poor people who were slaughtered by humans.

"Charge! Charge! Charge towards that gap again. The samurai's blood will not be shed in vain." Anji Wakisaka roared at the top of his lungs. The katana in his hand was unsheathed, and several attendants helped him get on the horse.

This time Anji Wakisaka wants to organize the entire army to charge. Since he can't live a noble life, he might as well die with honor. He still has 19,000 troops. Fight once! Fight again!

Either the Ming army was destroyed, or he himself fell on the road of charge.

"Stop!" A voice sounded from behind, and Wakisaka Anji stared back with wolf-like eyes. Anyone who dared to stop him from attacking now would be killed first.

The katana swung, but couldn't cut down.

The person who came was actually Tokugawa Ieyasu, followed by a large number of elite warriors. In front of Tokugawa Ieyasu, his subordinates looked like quails.

"Go and stop the Maori family!" Tokugawa Ieyasu ordered coldly.

Terumoto Mori was organizing his troops to attack the Franco cannon position. Tokugawa Ieyasu had an eye for those ten Franco cannons. As long as he killed those ten cannons, even if he lost two thousand people, Terumoto Mori decided to

Fight hard.

"Sir! General Li said that he can deal with those cannons, so you don't have to fight hard." Mouri Terumoto was about to order the entire army to attack when suddenly Ezuo Shinyuemon, who was assigned to Li Xiao's army, came over on horseback.

"Esa-kun, there are no jokes in the army." Terumoto Mori shouted, glaring at Ezuo Shinyuemon.

"Lord of the feudal lord, look!" Ezasa Shinyuemon pointed to the location of the Tokugawa Army's Foro machine gun.

When Maori Huiyuan turned his head, he heard a huge explosion. A large pile of soil was blown up, like black fireworks. When he looked at Li Xiao's place, the gunners of the two bronze cannons were nervously clearing the barrels.

Loading.

That thing can actually hit that far!

Mouri Terumoto was extremely shocked. Yesterday he saw that kind of cannon that could shoot very far. But Mouri Terumoto never imagined in his wildest dreams that it could actually hit that far. This was beyond his imagination!

"Go back! Help the Ming army hold on to their position!" Maori Terumoto gave the order to return to the army.

At the same time, he looked at Li Xiao's equipment greedily. If the two armies were not in front of the formation, he even had the idea of ​​taking advantage of the chaos to kill the Ming army and rob their equipment.

But now is the alliance period, and there is Tokugawa Ieyasu on the opposite side. Mori Terumoto is a sensible person, so this can only be advantageous to Tokugawa Ieyasu.

Maybe after defeating Tokugawa Ieyasu, I can find a chance...!

Mouri Terumoto squinted his eyes and started calculating!

The situation on the battlefield has become very clear, and the Tokugawa army is continuously retreating. Having learned the lesson from yesterday, their retreat is very rigorous.

Seeing the large swaying back flag in the distance, Li Xiao refused Mangui's request to pursue. Without the cover of artillery fire, Mangui would be trapped in a sea of ​​infantry.

Just as Tokugawa Ieyasu was retreating, a large number of warships suddenly appeared on the sea. It looked like there were hundreds of them!

The Kumano navy was defeated yesterday. Could it be that Tokugawa Ieyasu sent more ships today?

"Lord of the feudal lord, there are many ships." There were little sails on the sea, but those ships were actually just the vanguard. On the sea farther away, there were countless warships.

"Nani!" Mouri Terumoto looked in the direction of Nagato Port in horror.

These warships kept sounding their horns and rushed into Nagato Port as if there was no one around. The Maori family and the Ming Navy, under the command of Li Xiu, weighed anchor and faced the fleet in the distance.
