Chapter 932
On March 7, the second year of Yonglu, night.
At this time, Masarara was standing in front of the gate of the main military tent of Shimamayama, the Haimen County of Fenghou Guohou, staring at the lights of Meimuli City in the distance, and fell into deep thought.
Before the moon came out, the stars were twinkling in the sky. From time to time, the neighing of war horses came from the darkness. Yamamoto Kansuke and Yoshioka Changzeng stood beside Masara. For some reason, they were all silent.
Yoshida Shigemasaki, who had been waiting in the courtyard, said at this time: "Lord, come to the tent." Masarara did not answer, but just said no. Yoshida Shigemasaki sat in the lower place, and they were both silent.
"It's unreasonable. It's obvious that they can't stand it anymore. They are still fighting stubbornly?" Yoshida Shigemasa said to himself. But no one answered. After making the decision to siege the city, Masarara still sent an envoy to persuade Shinna Tadaomoto and others in Meimuli City, but the result was naturally that he refused to surrender.
At this moment, there was another scene in Meimuli City.
“I want to come here and stay in a very long place;
It is like dewdrops on grass leaves, and the moon shadow hangs upside down in the water and passes in a flash;
I would like to remind those who dance flowers and moon to be tempted by the front of their glory.
There were only promising clouds hidden before the bright moon in the south building;
Fifty years of life;
Compared with the living people in the sky, it is like a dream;
Enjoy all your life;
How can there be a truth of immortality?"
In the courtyard, a middle-aged monk was singing "Toshimai" on a beat. This famous song "Yuruma" in the "Nobunaga" play known to later generations was actually widely circulated in various parts of the Warring States Period during this period, and was loved by many artists and literati. However, at this time, the monk was performing for Shinna Tadaemoto and Sabuki Shintaku in front of him. Instead of singing alone because of personal preferences.
This middle-aged monk was the presidency of the temple on Chijian Mountain opposite Meimuli City. When the Luo family army arrived, he fled into Meimu City Lizhi. In fact, secretly, this monk also had an unknown identity. That is the uncle of the late Otomo family's governor Otomo Yi Town (family name Zonglin).
He was originally the abbot of a temple near the inner hall of the Tomoya Tomoya Prefecture (now Qibu City). When the Otoyo family was destroyed by the Luo family and most of the Tomoya Tomoya would fall into the hands of the Luo family, he immediately made a decision to flee to the territory of the Sabu family with several tribesmen who were also practicing in the temple, and eventually settled in the temple outside Meimuli City.
Originally, he escaped the temple shrine force removal operation carried out shortly after the Luo family destroyed the Otomo family. He was already very lucky. However, as a member of the Otomo family, he did not give up his belief in avenging the Otomo family. After settling in the temple outside Meimuli City, he incited believers and monks to help the Sabuki family resist the invasion of the Luo family more than once, until the villagers near the temple were either moved away by the Sabuki family or plundered by the Luo family. As for why his temple has not been burned by the Luo family army that has come to harassment, in the eyes of the middle-aged monk, it is probably because the Luo family did not want to confront the local temple shrine forces before the Sabuki family was resolved, thus adding more enemies to the Luo family.
But the more the Luo family did not want this, the more the middle-aged monk wanted this. Only in this way could he attack the Luo family as much as possible (but he didn't know. Everything he did was lurking under the surveillance of the local intelligence cabinet detectives, and everything about him was also clear, but Masayoshi completely used this as a small fuss. Because according to the intelligence cabinet's survey, Masayoshi knew that the power of temple shrines in the Sabuki territory was really limited, so even if these forces united, it would have no impact on the Luo family). Over this period, the middle-aged monks have been constantly contacting all nearby temple shrines, hoping to win them over into an alliance to unite against the Luo family. Before his plan was implemented successfully, an army of more than 20,000 people rushed over.
This time, facing the full invasion of the Luo family, the middle-aged monk knew that the Luo family was serious about the Sabu family. He really couldn't believe that the Luo family would turn a blind eye to his temple as before. So when he had a ghost in his heart, facing the fierce army of the Luo family, he naturally quickly abandoned the temple and fled into Meimuli City.
"It seems that the other party will attack tomorrow, two adults." After the chanting, the middle-aged monk suddenly spoke. He had learned from some warriors in the city that the Luo family's envoys came to persuade them to surrender today, and knew the final surrender period given by the Luo family, so he asked this now.
"Master, if life is only fifty years old, it is enough for me to be alone." Sabuki Shin-taka's face appeared after hearing this, "I have no regrets in my life, always act according to my will, and never lose my integrity."
"I understand..."
"Since you understand, you should understand your current mood. You will never surrender."
"So... there is no need to fight again?" After a long contact, the middle-aged monk who knew Sabuki Shin-chi's personality seemed to intentionally arouse Sabuki Shin-chi's courage to resist, so he asked on purpose.
"Hahaha..." Sahiro Shintaki laughed to the sky, "Fight again? Master, I'm always fighting. But this time I need to pick up the spear and wave the sword." After saying that, he laughed loudly again. Shinna Tadamoto, the powerful general of the Shimazu family, was deeply impressed by the veteran Sahiro family when he saw this.
In this way, facing the refusal of surrender in Meimuli City, on March 8, the second year of Yonglu, Zhengliang personally led a large army to Meimuli City.
On the side of Meimuli Castle, above the arrows of the castle outside Maru, Shimazu family Shinna Tadaemoto, Saibuki Saibuki and others all looked down at the Luo family army that were setting up formations under the city.
Above the city, the wind is blowing, making people's clothes bulging. Looking down from the city, the mountain road below the city is steep and steep. It is not an exaggeration to use a golden pond to describe the hardships and dangers of Meimuli City.
At this moment, Zhengliang was holding a single-eyed thousand-mile tube, looking at Meimuli City from afar, and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart: "What a strong city!" Such a strong city, no wonder the other party hid inside without fear and was unwilling to surrender, but you might be disappointed today.
"Report to the lord, the supplies have arrived." At this moment, the logistics team's football team general Toshimasa Honda came to report the report.
"Okay!" Zhengliang put down the Nanman's eyes in his hand and nodded in praise. Then he turned his head and said to Ander, the general of the Nanman's Iron Cannon Division, on the other side, "Ander, it depends on you next."
"Yes, lord!" After receiving the order, Ander immediately bent down to Masaru's salute, and then immediately trotted to the iron cannon team and the Otuna team led by him. At the same time, Honda Toshima saluted Masaru again and left immediately after Ander.
Soon, under the command of Toshimasa Honda, a team of carriages operated by the logistics franchise appeared in front of everyone. In order to push the carriages up the mountain, it took the power of the logistics franchise all over the logistics franchise.
After stopping at the place designated by Ander, with the command of Honda Toshimasa, the logistics team lifted the thatch on the cart and began to transport the five bronze objects on it one by one. These bronze objects are the main combat weapon of the Luo Family Datong Team, Datong!
After waiting for the five large tubes to land completely, Ander waved the whip in his hand and began to arrange the large tube positions. Under Ander's various fingers, the peasants and soldiers piled up bags of freshly filled soil bags near Meimuli City less than 100 places. Dozens of peasants in the rear were trying to transport large tubes to the place, placing the large tubes at the exact launch position.
Before the Tuba, on the side of the road, under the command of Masarara, Yoshida Shigemasa, Aguda, Tomohisa Oishi and others were on high alert, guarding against the military forces in Meimuli City who rushed out of the city to destroy the large-tube position built by the Luo family.
Faced with a series of strange actions by the Luo family outside the city, there were densely packed samurai guards standing on the top of the Meimuli City. They seemed to be unaware of this, so they even started to watch enthusiastically. When Shimazu family's army leader Shinna Tadaomoto looked at the big tube that the Luo family was working on, his face changed drastically after carefully seeing the big tube that the Luo family was being manipulated.
The Sakai family and most ordinary samurai samurai family don’t know what this big tube is, but he has followed Shimazu Takahiro to visit the Ming Dynasty pirate ships along the coast of Satsuma. He even saw the Ming Dynasty pirate ship launching the big tube on the ship with his own eyes. He really didn’t expect that the Luo family brought such a powerful weapon as the big tube, and it also brought so many people. No wonder the Luo family had been practicing military power at the foot of the mountain without fear before. It turned out that the other party had long been very sure of capturing the city.
For a moment, Xin Na Zhongyuan's heart was filled with bitterness. But at this time, he must not retreat, and he could not even order his subordinates to retreat and avoid it. Otherwise, when the other party's morale was as bright as the rainbow and his own defenders had been frightened by the power of the Luo family training army outside the city during this period, it was very likely that the defenders in the city would collapse.
Just as Shinna Zhongyuan was struggling with whether to order his subordinates to hide, Ander, who was under the city, immediately smiled on his face after confirming that the big tube position was constructed. So he immediately turned his thumb, opened his eyes and glanced left and right for a while, and finally made all possible gestures to the five big tube money standing under the five big tube money. Then he waved his hand and said domineeringly: "Put the cannon for me!"
Soon, the five large tubes were finally placed according to Ander's request. Under the sunlight, the muzzle of the large tube was filled with cold light, and the five large tubes opened their bloody mouths one by one, facing the top of Meimuli City.
"Fill in shells!"
