Overgod Ascension

boom!

boom!

Watching the high oil bombs flying up and falling into the opposite wooden village, burning like hell in an instant, engulfing it completely, Oniichi Yoshitsune's face was full of numbness.

Not only him, but even Kanosuke Yamanaka next to him.

"Fire ghost! Fire ghost!"

"God and Buddha, please punish the enemy on the opposite side!"

Even though certain fire prevention measures were prepared, under the raging flames, it was still a drop in the bucket. The ashigaru in the wooden village screamed and collapsed continuously, and occasionally samurai and swordsmen made a final charge.

"kill!"

"Haha... Our ghost family is invincible!"

Contrary to the general who led the army, the ashigaru of the ghost family saw this scene, but their morale was extremely high, especially after sending all the charging warriors to the west with the iron artillery team, it reached a certain peak .

"This frenzy..."

When Oni Yoshitsune saw the flames in Ashgaru's eyes, he was deeply afraid.

Knowing that over the past few days, the burning of thirteen wooden villages that resisted has built up in their hearts the supreme confidence that the coach is invincible!

A victorious army has quality on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is built from the confidence that no matter how powerful the enemy is, it will be destroyed under the iron hoof!

The current ghost army undoubtedly has such a rudimentary form!

Needless to say, the 1,500 ashigaru of the Oni family, even the ashigaru regiments of other wealthy families have been infiltrated by this kind of fanatical thinking.

It's just that the heads of the families are helpless.

If they can break through more than a dozen strongholds in a row without losing a single person, they will naturally gain this awe.

"Continuously burned thirteen fortresses, and wiped out five noble families..."

There was a hint of unbearable expression on Yamanaka Kanosuke's face: "Although the wealthy families and people around us are afraid and dare not be enemies with our family, the seeds of fear and hatred have been deeply planted... I must persuade the lord !"

He came to Wu Ming's mount, but saw that Wu Ming's face remained unchanged, the flames were reflected on his face, and he was still smiling.

"Haha... Kanosuke Yamanaka, look at those patriarchs who tried to send troops to resist me, or who saw my jokes, their faces are probably green now?"

Wu Ming's eyes were fixed, and he was not at all moved by the tragedy that happened in front of him: "After breaking this fortress, it will be Guangli City in Dayuan County. …The ninjas have received news that they have rejected my offer, and they are ready to fight in the end!”

"My lord, although the current Dayuan County is in awe of your power, most of them are prostrate at your feet, but now it's time for them to see your benevolent government..."

Yamanaka Kanosuke gritted his teeth.

"oh?"

Wu Ming was noncommittal, and asked Oni Yiyijing next to him: "What's your opinion?"

"Since the fire department ninja attack, thirteen powerful families in Dayuan County have expressed their surrender to our family. I think they can also mobilize ashigaru to join the war, so that they can justifiably share the spoils of war. Presumably after gaining benefits, they will Will it be more tightly tied to the chariot of our family?"

Oniichi Yoshitsune thought for a while, and slowly said: "After all... Guangli Castle is a bigger city than Numata Castle!"

"Haha... Although you didn't say it clearly, you are also persuading me!"

Wu Ming laughed: "Don't worry! The governor of my family is not a person who only knows how to be tyrannical. Appropriate wooing and compromise are necessary, but definitely not now... your suggestion of letting other families mobilize their forces to join the war is very good. , I have asked Mochizuki Kotaro to do it!"

"This timing...could it be after the attack on Guangli City?"

Kanosuke Yamanaka couldn't help but said.

"That's right... when the time comes, how about adding Zhixing to everyone? Presumably they will be very happy, right?"

"The heads of every family must have what they want, and they will be loyal to their own family!"

Yamanaka Kanosuke and Oniichi Yoshitsune said in unison.

After all, what could be more rewarding than a hereditary domain?

"It's just that... under the command of my family, the power of the wealthy family will also expand..."

Oniichi Yoshitsune has already begun to think about things after the war.

"Yeah... so it is necessary to transfer the title! Expand their knowledge and behavior, and then arrange them to other counties! The exchange of Fanshi County and Dayuan County is not enough! At least the entire Izumo Kingdom must be conquered, and even In other regions, this is the only way to make a move!"

A gloomy look appeared in Wu Ming's eyes.

This kind of local wealthy family and the people of the country are just like the powerful people in the Great Zhou world. They privately store family members, hide bows and arrows and armor, and build docks. In troubled times, they are all unstable factors.

But half of the power of this big family lies in the land resources it controls, and half in the hearts of the people!

Once moved to other environments, even if the land is expanded, the strength will still be reduced by half!

After all, it is not a matter of overnight to hide power in the hearts of the people, secretly harvest the power of the people, and take root.

It is the same reason to transfer the feudal family and the people of the country now, just like the Western Han Dynasty in Wu Ming's previous life, he moved the wealthy family to the emperor's mausoleum several times, and brought all the powerful people in the world to death. This is also a must for strengthening the centralization of power road.

...

Guangli City is impressively in sight.

"This is the largest city in Dayuan County? It's really good!"

Wu Ming looked at a big city on the plain not far away, and nodded slightly.

This Hirori Castle is larger than Numata Castle, and has four layers of defense. The outermost Shinomaru is piled up with stones, which is a foot high. The pavilion, at first glance, is an extremely strong fortress.

On the opposite side, Wu Ming's army of 5,000 troops had already laid down their positions, their swords and guns unsheathed, and their murderous aura was awe-inspiring.

"My lord! In Guangsato Castle, the Ikeda family has mobilized three thousand ashigaru, and the governor Ikeda Masaaki has sworn to defend!"

Mochizuki Kotaro next to him reported.

"Hmm... have you realized that you must die?"

Wu Ming smiled slightly: "This is preparing to consume as much as possible of the foot of the family, and to buy time for the Yiyu family to rectify the army..."

He waved his hand: "You show the information to others!"

Oniichi Yoshitsune and Yamanaka Kanosuke took the letter paper, and after reading a few columns, their expressions changed: "It's normal that Yiyu's family is rectifying the army, but such a big event happened in Anyi country? My family The Dazaosi family who secretly supported it was defeated, and Wulong City has been besieged by the Maori family..."

"Yeah... If we can't capture the Izumo country before the Daizoji family perishes, we will lose the chance to compete with the Mori family... Everyone is buying time..."

Wu Ming murmured a sigh, his gaze turned firm, and he slashed his military fan: "Attack! Order the 2,000 legions formed by the thirteen tyrants from Dayuan County to take the lead in attacking the city. Oniichi Yoshitsune, you bring the Iron Cannon Squad Supervise the battle in the rear with the big gun team!"

When Kanosuke Yamanaka heard this order, the expression on his face moved.

These two thousand troops were formed by the nobles of Dayuan County who had recently taken refuge in them. They had the lowest level of loyalty and armament, and they were not trustworthy. It was only natural to use them to weaken them at this time.

‘Also, the iron artillery team and the big gun team are probably not only used to suppress the city, but also used to kill deserters, right? '

Iron cannons and big blunderbusses can not only suppress bows and arrows at the top of the city, but also are supreme weapons for killing deserters!

Kanosuke Yamanaka closed his eyes, knowing that the coalition forces of the thirteen powerful clans had no other choice but to fight to the death or die in battle.

"Let my family see your loyalty!"

Hearing the order brought by Oniichi Yoshitsune, the coalition forces of the thirteen powerful clans fluctuated for a while, but the iron artillery team with heavy guns behind them, and the 3,000 troops who were watching eagerly, still made them obey the order, with fierce flames in their eyes, He rushed towards Guangli City.

"kill!"

On the city wall, the bow general shouted, and many ashigaru shot the bows and arrows in their hands.

After a wave of arrows rained, more than a dozen attackers fell down, and the rest of the Ashgaru panicked. Some rushed straight to the city, while others retreated quietly, their formations scattered for a while.

"Iron Cannon Team, shoot!"

Seeing this situation, Oniichi Yoshitsune waved his hands mercilessly. After a burst of smoke and sparks, the fleeing Ashgaru were shot one after another, effectively deterring the rest of the people.

"The first team, advance one hundred meters, attack the city tower, and suppress their bows and arrows!"

After punishing the deserters, Oniichi Yoshitsune did his duty a little bit and ordered the Iron Artillery Team to suppress the archers in Guangli City.

"Oh...is this the power of the local wealthy family? It really disappoints me..."

Wu Ming said with a smile to Kanosuke Yamanaka: "Only the so-called 'pig sudden' tactics don't know how to cooperate at all, and they don't know how to make utensils... The biggest difference between humans and animals is that they can use tools!"

There are constant tragedies on the opposite side, but the lord can still talk and laugh like this. This kind of demeanor really makes Yamanaka Kanosuke feel ashamed, so he can only nod repeatedly.

"Although the powerful families in these places are not trustworthy, they are still the strength of our own family, so we can't lose it for nothing... When this wave comes down, you can use the ladders, wooden carts, and some simple siege equipment prepared by our army, Leave it to them!"

Wu Ming smiled faintly, his eyes looked like a god king who ruled the world. This kind of deep and unfathomable power immediately made everyone around him surrender in fear.

...

The brutal siege continued for two days.

The fight of blood and fire never stopped under Guangli City.

"Big gun! Release!"

"Storm, go! Take the ladder!"

With all kinds of new weapons participating in the war, the attacking side suffered heavy losses, while the defending side also suffered tragic casualties, and several lines of defense were crumbling.

"My lord! After three days of attacking the city, almost half of the powerful army has been lost..."

At this time, Gui Yiyijing reported to Wu Ming with a worried face: "Even if my family has an army of three thousand, it will gradually become unstoppable..."

"It's natural. I'm afraid that not only the foot light in their camp, but even the samurai and the family governor are regretting joining the family, right?"

Wu Ming smiled coldly. (To be continued.)
