Become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen!

Chapter 626
There is a watershed in the area of ​​Japanese armor.

Sufficient is divided into old sufficiency and contemporary sufficiency.

A simple distinction is roughly that the ones made before Edo are the old ones, and the ones made after the establishment of the Edo Shogunate are the current ones.

But in fact, in terms of protection capabilities and actual combat capabilities, there is not much difference between the new and the old.

Even the old ones will be slightly better.

Because of the Edo Shogunate's Konoe Banner and these pro-vassal daimyos, the army under the command of Pudai daimyos has not participated in large-scale legion battles for more than 30 years.

The functions that are available in the current world have also begun to gradually deviate in directions other than actual combat.

The daimyos of Kyushu Island and the southern part of Honshu Island have also experienced the Shimabara Rebellion.

But should I say it or not, the family army drawn up by the shogunate looks quite bluffing.

Zhu Tianxing had to be more cautious when he saw it.

Originally thinking that there were about [-] troops on the opposite side, it would be fine to just run over after a little rest. After thinking about it, he changed to station on the spot and take a good rest for a day before fighting.

After all, I have driven more than 400 miles in winding and detours in the mountains of the country of Wa.

Looking at Cheng Jun from the opposite side, he was in a hurry. According to the people below, there are a lot of flags. According to the people below, the daimyo around Osaka in the central part of Honshu Island have not yet been assembled.

Just to see how many people can be gathered on the opposite side, so as not to rush in, and wait for the [-] reinforcements behind.

Resting here.

Later, Zhu Youjian's battle to encircle and suppress the shogunate army in Izumo country is coming to an end.

Two cities were destroyed in a row, and the shogunate army had to make a final resistance in the remaining city of Matsue Fan in Izumo Kingdom, which was also the largest city.

First, on the first day of confrontation, the castle on the side of the shogunate army was bombed and collapsed several gaps, and then two shogunate army daimyos in the city surrendered to the black flag, resulting in a gap in the city's defense, and the black flag army attacked the city.

The shogunate army, which relied on trenches to resist outside the city, was attacked by Sanada Akabi newly formed by Sanada Yukimasa, the defense line was torn apart, and the daimyo was captured.

In the end, [-] shogunate troops outside the city were captured, and most of the rest fled to the Tottori domain in the east.

The remaining [-] people still resisted in Songjiang City under the leadership of Matsudaira Naomasa.

"Naozheng! Come out and meet me! Did you sleep well last night! I asked the lord for a chance to claim your head! That's why the lord didn't attack your castle in the dark!"

"Oh!"

Sanada Xingchang shouted with a loudspeaker behind the baffle, only Hazama Iron Cannon responded to him.

This kind of large shotgun was erected behind the shooting hole of the castle's "narrow room". Compared with the bow and crossbow alone, its strength must be very good, but a pair of red cannons with such heavy firepower, its status is very embarrassing.

"Cunning thing, the second soldier is just gunpowder not yet delivered"

Naomasa Matsudaira, who is slightly fat and wearing a heavy armor, with dark circles under his eyes, stared at Yukimasa Sanada who was still jumping in the distance from the shooting hole, grinning grinningly and full of helplessness at the same time.

"Let the horse come here!! Let me see how good you are, a thing that has humiliated the family!"

He yelled into the distance, and then he looked at the soldiers around him: "Is there no news from Muto Taihei?"

"Master Taihei lit the fire."

"That's good"

After all, Matsudaira Naomasa got up and stood on the city wall, looking at the city occupied by black flags and the black flag army stationed in the distance outside the city, his body couldn't help shaking.

He had already asked his retainers to take his family away and send them to Osaka.

Now staying and defending to the death is naturally full of will to die.

Sanada Xingchang put down the loudspeaker, and praised Naomasa Matsudaira as worthy of the name of "oil port". His voice was quite loud, and his shouting was almost the same as he shouted with a big loudspeaker.

Then began to attack the last castle in Izumo.

His newly formed Red Army was not formed after defeating Jingyi Chibei and accepting the soldiers, and it was not even cavalry.

It is a heavy infantry with armor changed to black and red.

After experiencing the mainstream tactics of the Black Banner Army, Sanada Xingchang felt that there was no need to get too stuck with red equipment.

The color is about right.

"Oh!"

The red-clothed cannon fired again, blowing Songjiang Castle down another hole.

Sanada Chibei swarmed up carrying the Banqiao, and put the Banqiao in the gap, and then a team of Chibei with firecrackers rushed up, and the Matsue warriors and Ashgaru who rushed out of them had to be shot.

Not to mention that before entering the castle, the soldiers in front threw five or six thunderbolts into the gap.

Both gaps were breached, and the defense equipment in Songjiang Castle only rang two or three times, and the defenders in the castle could only fight hand-to-hand with Sanada Chibi inside the castle.

Then there was no accidental rout.

At this time, hundreds of soldiers of the Matsue clan huddled in the castle town outside the castle rushed out to attack the rear of Sanada Chibei, but they were defeated by hundreds of Chibei, but dozens of them were extremely tenacious, rushing left and right and refused to retreat for a while Can't kill it either.

But at this time Sanada Xingchang was already face to face with Matsudaira Naomasa in the castle.

The enemy was quite jealous when they met. The two armies were crowded in a narrow space, and they were all armored, so the killing efficiency was not very high, and the rear firearms were not easy to use here.

The two armies slashed at each other, and Sanada Xingchang and Matsudaira Naomasa naturally scolded each other.

Cursing and cursing, several thunderbolts were thrown into the crowd of the Songjiang Army.

"Bang bang bang!!"

"Who threw it!!"

Sanada Yukimasa turned pale with fright.

But his voice was a little pale at this moment. Regardless of whether Zhen Tianlei was accidentally injured or not, the last resistance of the enemy had been blown to pieces, and Chi Bei rushed forward under the action of adrenaline!

After a moment.

Naomasa Matsudaira took off his armor, and sat on the ground calmly, with blood oozing from the wound pierced by the Shock Thunder fragments on his thigh, making most of his trouser legs dark red.

"Submit to Black Flag, my lord will treat you kindly."

"I'm the grandson of Tokugawa Ieyasu. I'm not the same as you, and I'm not the same as those lucky guys. Needless to say, I'm sorry for the fact that I kept your father's military fan very well. Come on, Son of the First Soldier!"

After hearing the words, Sanada Xingchang didn't say any more, and drew out a dagger that he hadn't used much.

Seppuku is actually quite rare.

Zhu Youjian hadn't seen it with his own eyes since he landed.

It is estimated that the Tokugawa shogunate’s control over foreign daimyos and its policies aroused the resentment of the samurai class. Before the conquest of Kyushu Island and landing in the southern part of Honshu Island, there have been no daimyos or even samurai. Yes, but not more than two or three little people.

Matsudaira Naomasa was the first daimyo to do seppuku.

After he cut seppuku, two of his retainers who were still in Songjiang Fan City also cut seppuku, which led to several samurai seppuku.

Zhu Youjian saw it this time.

The dagger pierced into the stomach with a puff, and the whole body trembled and let out a low cry. Then he wanted to turn the dagger in the other direction and found that he had no strength. The wrong person naturally cut down the dagger quickly to end his pain.

Just apologizing with death alone seems more sincere than hanging himself and taking medicine.

"Don't you have to cut it horizontally? Next time, if someone can't cut it, maybe the wrong person can help."

Otherwise, how to fully demonstrate sincerity?
