“Swishy…”

In the world, it started to rain heavily in an instant.￥f

"Damn it!"

Takahashi Shaoyun stood at Ninomaru's arrow and cursed in extreme anger. He had just received a report from his retainers who were assigned by him. After learning that the guy Tatsuyasu retreated in the last battle, Takahashi Shaoyun was already a little annoyed. Before he could reply from the news, it suddenly started to rain heavily again. This was a huge blow to the defenders.

Because once it rains, defensive methods such as iron cannons and tinder oil cannot be used. Although the Hojo family's iron cannon team was affected, the most serious one was the defender. Sure enough, with the heavy rain falling, the sound of iron cannons in Edo Castle, which suddenly came to an abrupt end at this moment, and the defender's defensive morale was also silenced.

"Bang! Bang!"

Just when Takahashi Shaoyun was still angry, the Hojo family's attack did not stop because of the rain. Only the sound of wooden stakes hitting the door was heard, and a burst of rush passed.

In addition to Ninomaru, Hojo's army paid a heavy casualty price for one morning but failed to fill it, Hojo's army was filled in instantly. Hojo's army carried the shield and carried heavy rain and arrows that passed by from time to time, and the soldiers were constantly shot by arrows and then fell into the mud to wail. However, the Footballs beside them continued to attack without caring about it.

Although the defenders' bows and feet shot with all their might, the Hojo Army was in full swing, regardless of casualties. And on rainy days, the range, aiming, and bowstring toughness also had a great impact. But now they could only use it.

Under Ninomaru Castle, straw sandals stepped violently in the mud. The mud and water splashed everywhere. The heavy rain made the hat on Hojo's feet light head sound, and the flag fingers were wet and became obedient. The rain slid down from the armor, and a large area of ​​Hojo's invisible tail was wet. He was standing in the distance with his spear in his hand, staring at the city gate with his eyes close to him.

The tenacity of Ninomaru's gate was not as tough as Tengumaru's Mad-hand gate. After the eight-strong Hojo Warriors hit the wooden stakes hundreds of times, several deep and shallow white marks appeared on the Ninomaru city gate. The breaking of the gate was instantly.

Seeing this, Shaoyun Takahashi finally sighed to the sky and finally said to himself: "I am still not as good as my lord. It seems that this is the only way."

Just now, he was a little proud of delaying the Hojo family's army in Edo Castle, and even thought that his performance now could be compared with the previous record of the Lord Masaru, but the fact was so cruel. With the retreat of Tai-Ta Yasuhisa and the arrival of heavy rain, everything turned into a fantasy. He even thought that if the Lord Masaru had resigned, there would never be such a situation like Tai-Ta Yasuhisa.

This time it was really a bit of a failure! After thinking about this, Takahashi Shaoyun immediately made a final decision. He quickly began to transfer his subordinates and all the nearby Tai-Tian family members to the gate.

Just as Takahashi Shaoyun was summoning everyone, outside the city gate, seeing the city breaking out, Kiyomizu Katsuyoshi personally beat the Taigu to inspire morale.

"Dong!Dong!"

Countless people were mobilizing, and the long spears erected like forests were constantly being transferred from afar. Just waiting for the city gate to break, the Hojo army rushed into the city gate with an absolute advantage in numbers.

At this moment, on the Hojo Ichimoto formation outside the city, although the battle situation in the distance was not clear in the heavy rain. However, the Hojo generals stretched their heads and stood in the heavy rain, staring at the battle situation in the Edo Castle. The rain hit their heads and armor. Everyone had a thought, would Edo Castle break the city today?

But in the military tent, Hojo Ichiyashi looked indifferent to the battle situation of Edo Castle.

Seeing this, Hojo Kan'an, who was with Hojo Ichiyasu, turned around and looked at the heavy rain outside the military tent, he asked Hojo Ichiyasu: "Master, why don't you care about the battle in Edo Castle at all?"

Hojo Ichiyasu stopped playing, shook his head, and said, "This city will be broken, but what I care more about is the reinforcements of Tai-Shimasa and Sari Miyohiro who were approaching Edo Castle before."

"Yeah!" Hojo Kan'an frowned when he heard this. "From the information sent back before, the other party suddenly stopped moving forward after learning that the family had arrived in Edo Castle before them. I really don't know what the other party was planning!"

Just as Hojo Ichiyasu and Hojo Kan'an were discussing the strange actions of the reinforcements of Tai-Shimasato and Rimiyohiro, Edo Castle and Ninomaru.

At this moment, whether inside or outside the city, the Ninomaru Castle Gate, which everyone is concerned about, finally collapsed with a "boom". At the same time, wood chips fly across the city gate as the city gate collapses.

The moment the city gate was broken finally arrived.

"oh!"

The Hojo army soldiers were as if they were injected with chicken blood, their faces turned red, and the entire army flocked in.

"The city is broken! The city is broken!"

Countless people shouted at the same moment, that this purpose was to cheer themselves up and shake the morale of the defenders. On the horse path of Ninomaru, the Hojo army rushed over like a tide, fighting with the defenders behind the city gate.

The horse path in Edo Castle Ninomaru is designed a bit like a corridor. On the horse path that is only five wide, there are four high stone walls on both sides, so the area of ​​fighting on the front is very small. The Hojo army lined up into a long row, and the people behind pushed the people in front and kept rushing forward.

So the samurai who rushed to the front was light. If he didn't move, he would not be pushed forward by himself. If he was accidentally overturned to the ground, the feet of countless people would be trampled on him.

On these five wide and narrow fronts, only the Taidao, long spear, and naginata collided, and the soldiers of the two soldiers slashed each other without saying a word. Some people were constantly being knives or being shot and killed and rushed to the ground. However, if some injured people stopped, the Hojo army rushed from behind were stomping to death. The dull shouts were mixed with the shrill screams before death, and the Hojo army's offensive continued.

The vanguard of the Hojo Army was naturally the brave Masato Tomonaga. His arms were extremely strong, and he waved the naginata alone and slashed the left and right. He killed five or six defenders in a row. He cut them into two pieces with one knife.

"I am the Hojo Samurai Masaki Tonyaka, who dares to fight me!"

Tonyaga Masato shouted boldly that Toyama Tsunaga, who was his friend before, was seriously injured. At present, it is probably a little bit of danger, so this time he decided to massacre the defenders in the city to avenge their friends.

Facing the roaring shouts of Tooyon Masato, the defenders were forced to come forward to fight under the momentum of Tooyon Masato. So they were constantly beaten backwards. Under the pressure of this fierce offensive, the casualties of the defenders suddenly became more and more severe.

In just a quarter of an hour, the Hojo Army broke through the nearly 100-meter-long corridor of the defenders. Dozens of defenders died on the spot, and the rest were driven to the open space behind.

"Haha! But that's it!"

Tonyaki Masaki smiled, and the rain and blood fell on the naginata in his hand.

Just as Toyonaga Masato finished laughing, he suddenly climbed up from the high place of the Ishigaki on both sides of the corridor and dozens of archers and feet. All the Hojo soldiers in the corridor changed color suddenly when they saw this.

"Shoot the arrow!"

The defender's Football Team shouted loudly, so dozens of defender's Football Team, who had been ambushing for a long time, immediately shot arrows at the Hojo soldiers who were crowded in the corridor.

Such a density of people is basically not necessary to aim, and you can shoot with your eyes closed. Moreover, shooting arrows at such a close distance is useless, not to mention the range and penetration power, even wearing armor. It is really useless.

So, a bloody storm suddenly appeared in the corridor. A rain of arrows came. Hojo's army wailed in the corridor, and a large crowd of black people fell down. Five or six Hojo who had not yet died of arrows were penetrated by arrows. After the body was penetrated by arrows, he still held his chest in his hands and crawled on the ground. The entire corridor was like Shura hell in an instant.

"Dong!Dong!Dong!"

The sound of Taigu in the defenders' counterattacks rang out immediately.

Takahashi Shaoyun was wearing heavy armor and holding weapons, taking the lead, while the rest of the defenders rushed into the corridor together under the leadership of Takahashi Shaoyun.

The famous Hojo general Tokunaga Masaki Masaki was about to fight with the other party, but he didn't even meet him, and was shot through the chest by Takahashi Shaoyun. After killing Tokunaga Masaki, Takahashi Shaoyun didn't look at the body of Tokunaga Masaki, but instead threw the gun at the head of the gun. The body of Tokunaga Masaki was thrown on the stone wall on the spot.

"ah!"

Seeing the death of the main general, the Hojo army trembled and exclaimed in this terrifying scene. So the main general was killed in battle and ambushed by bows and arrows, and the morale of the Hojo army suddenly fell. Under the overwhelming offensive of the defenders, the Hojo army retreated step by step.

Seeing that Takahashi Shaoyun was wearing heavy armor and holding a long spear, he came like a ferocious evil spirit. All the Hojo samurai who dared to resist did not even have a move (and he learned the martial arts of Luo's family for so long with the Lord Masarong, and the spear skills were still the ones Takahashi Shaoyun were the best at it), he was assassinated on the spot, and the generals of the defenders around him were also fierce, and killing people was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables. So, when Takahashi Shaoyun and others came to the front, the Hojo army facing Takahashi Shaoyun and others suddenly lost the courage to resist.

"Ghost General, Ghost General is here, run away quickly!"

"Escape quickly, otherwise you will die!"

"Help! Don't leave me behind!"

The horrific shouts of the Hojo army in front before their death made the Hojo army in the rear sound particularly shrill. Seeing Takahashi Shaoyun coming, the Hojo army on the front collapsed, as if they saw a flood and beast, shouting all the way, desperately retreating, without even the courage to turn back and fight. Even the Hojo army in the rear of the corridor also lost the courage and began to retreat back.

The terrain in the corridor was originally small, as the saying goes, the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road. When the morale of the Hojo Army was declining, it was a thousand miles away, and they trampled on each other. The Hojo Footballers threw away their guns and armor, fled back in a mess. Some began to roar hysterically, and some even lost their courage. They knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, and then were ruthlessly cut off their heads by the defenders samurai who were chasing behind them.

Takahashi Shaoyun and others continued to move forward without hesitation, while also wielding their guns and swords to kill each other, crushing the Hojo Army's butt. Driven by this, the Hojo Army trampled forward and backward, trampled on people, and suppressed people. Most of the people killed and injured by the Hojo Army were fucked by their own legs, and only a small part of them were killed by the defenders.

Takahashi Shaoyun and others were all hemorrhaged and heavily armored. The rainwater was wet with blood, and the defenders who caught up behind them were almost advancing along the way with minced meat.

Under the assault of Takahashi Shaoyun and others, the Hojo Army was attacked by the defenders like a road roller. They pushed the Hojo Army back to 80 meters in an instant, and they were repelled back to the original Ninomaru Dae Gate, and the defeat continued.

Seeing a large group of Hojo troops crying and calling their parents, running around, leaving the city gate, Kiyomizu Yasuki, as the vanguard leader, couldn't react for a while. The Hojo troops were still as powerful as the rainbow and singing forward, how could they become like this now?

"Damn it. What's wrong?"

A man from Kiyomizu Katsuyo came over, almost crying and scolded Hojo Fog.

Hojo's foot was as if he was lost in his soul. He shook his head straight, pointed his finger at the gate of the city and said, "Yes...yes, the ghost...the ghost general of the defender."

When Qingshui Kangying heard this, he relaxed his hands and changed color. At the same time, he couldn't help but exclaim:

"Ghost General?!"

At this time, the war continued. After the defenders drove Hojo army out of Ninomaru, they were not satisfied and shouted and rushed out of the damaged city gate.

When he saw this scene, Katsuyoung Shimizu didn't bother to think about who was so powerful, he was known as a "ghost general". So he immediately transferred his own horse to the crowd, but before the Katsuyoung Shimizu's horse to the crowd had even joined the battle, he was easily dispersed by Hojo's foot, which was currently retreating.

In the narrow terrain, the Hojo army was crowded and blocked each other, and the advantage of the large number of people could not be expanded at all. After Takahashi Shaoyun and others led their troops out of the city gate, the defenders continued to attack, and even several warriors rushing in front, with more than a dozen wounds on their bodies, and the sound of killing was shocking the sky for a while.

Although the Hojo Army was in Kiyomizu Yasuhide and although Kiyomizu Yasuhide organized a group of soldiers to resist, the two sides fought for only a while and his troops were scattered.

The Hojo Army was really defeated all the way at this time. On the mountain road along the way, the Hojo Army left behind corpses all over the ground. These corpses could not be accommodated on the mountain road, so they were kicked aside, so the trees on the slope near the cliff were also hung with Hojo Army's corpses.

The Hojo army was defeated like a mountain. Now they all retreated from Tengou Maru and held on several rooms with a strong bow, barely supporting the attack of the defenders. Hojo, who retreated and survived, was like frightened little rabbits, nestled behind the house, looking at the fierce defenders outside Tengou Maru.

Takahashi Shaoyun was waiting for this opportunity, so he fought against Hojo Jun alone with a gun:

"Who dares to fight in Shaoyun, Takahashi!"

Takahashi Shaoyun's words clearly reached the ears of every Hojo soldier, and the Tengu Maru suddenly became silent. The Hojo soldiers in the city were dejected, and no one dared to come forward to fight.

"Hahaha..." After a burst of laughter, Takahashi Shaoyun decisively led his subordinates to escape from Edo Castle.

Yes, I had long learned that Tai-Yanshi retreated and regained the news that Honmaru was planning to defend. After it started to rain heavily, Takahashi Shaoyun knew that he could no longer stay in Edo Castle to hold on. He planned to break through the siege and look for the coming Tai-Yanshimasaki, Riki Miyoshihiro's reinforcements, and then use this reinforcement to entangle Hojo Ichiyasu.

Now, it is the best time to break through. As for Tai-Ta Yasuji who is still unaware of it in Honmaru? Humph, it is better not to keep such a guy with you, otherwise you really don’t know when he will be killed by the other party.

With the rapid breakthrough of Takahashi Shaoyun and others, the news of the Hojo Army's defeat in attacking Edo Castle Ninomaru also spread to the Hojo Army's main formation.

Hojo Yasumi sat in the big tent with a blue face, and the military captain in his hand had already been thrown aside by him. Finally, a roar came from the military tent.

Hojo Yasuka said angrily: "Damn it, you must not let Takahashi Shaoyun escape. I would rather not have Edo Castle. Hurry up, send me someone to chase me!"
