At dawn the next day, Takeshi Sanada ordered his army to launch a fierce attack on Fengxian Castle.
“Boom boom…”
The artillery team launched the first attack.
The artillery team that Wang Qi left for Takeshi Sanada was divided into two teams.
There was a team at each of the north and south gates, and they launched a fierce attack from both gates at the same time.
Under the continuous bombardment of artillery fire, the gate of Fengxian City finally collapsed.
"General, the south gate has been blown open!"
The messenger came quickly to report.
"very good!"
Sanada Takeshi showed a satisfied look on his face and shouted, "Order the South Gate troops to attack the city immediately!"
...
...
"yes!"
As Takeshi Sanada's order was issued, the army at the South Gate immediately rushed towards the city gate.
"kill!"
“Kill!”
"Go, go!"
There will always be brave men when there is a big reward!
This is indeed true.
Stimulated by the reward promised by Takeshi Sanada, the soldiers of Yu Country under his command rushed to the city gate fearlessly, as everyone wanted to be the one to receive the reward.
Although they are all Yu people, at this time, they are mortal enemies.
Anyone who dares to block their path to promotion and wealth will be ruthlessly killed.
Faced with the fierce attack from Takeshi Sanada's troops, the army in Fengxian Castle also fought back.
The evil deeds of Takeshi Sanada have already spread throughout Fengxian City.
Everyone knew that if they let Takeshi Sanada and his men attack, they would be dead.
At this moment, whether they were armored or unarmored warriors, they all rushed towards Sanada Takeshi's troops regardless of everything, and many people from Fengxian City also joined the counterattack.
The two sides engaged in a brutal battle around Fengxian City.
Gradually, both sides became blood-thirsty.
The soldiers under Takeshi Sanada didn't care whether the people in Fengxian Castle were soldiers or civilians. Anyone who was dressed differently from them would be killed.
Their brutality also aroused more people's resistance, and more people joined the resistance.
Many people directly picked up sticks and started fighting with the soldiers holding sharp blades.
The strong smell of blood filled the air, and the sounds of fighting were everywhere in the city.
The fierce offensive and defensive battle continues.
Due to the tenacious resistance of the defenders of Fengxian Castle, the advance of Takeshi Sanada's troops was severely hindered.
However, with the cover of artillery fire and more elite soldiers, after suffering heavy casualties, Sanada Takeshi's troops gradually gained the upper hand.
It was almost noon when Wang Qi and Qin Qihu led their troops to arrive.
At this moment, the battle in Fengxian City is still going on.
"How is the battle going?"
Wang Qi and Qin Qihu found Takeshi Sanada to ask.
Sanada Takeshi chuckled: "My troops have already entered the inner city. The enemy won't be able to hold out for much longer! I estimate that the battle will be over in just over an hour at most."
Wang Qi thought for a moment and suggested, "Your men must be tired after attacking for so long. How about you let your men withdraw and we send others to take over their attack?"
“No, no!”
Sanada Takeshi waved his hands repeatedly, "You must be exhausted after traveling all the way here, you should rest for a while, and I will send someone to contact you when you need support."
The fight has come to this point, he will not give Wang Qi and the others the chance to grab the credit!
Wang Qi and Qin Qihu looked at each other at the same time and reluctantly agreed: "Alright! Then let's rest for a while. If your attack is frustrated, you must let us go!"
"well!"
Takeshi Sanada agreed readily.
After Wang Qi and Qin Qihu left, Sanada Takeshi immediately ordered his men to send a message to the army that had entered the city, ordering each unit to speed up the attack and end the battle within an hour.
Wang Qi and Qin Qihu returned to their troops.
Looking at the Fengxian City where thick smoke continued to billow, the two couldn't help but smile at each other.
"Tell me, after this battle, how many people will be able to survive?"
Qin Qihu asked Wang Qi with a smile.
"have no idea."
Wang Qi still shook his head and smiled, "Anyway, the casualties of Sanada Takeshi's troops will surely be huge."
Qin Qihu grinned, "I hope that almost all the troops on both sides have died! There is still a risk in blowing up the camp, so don't let us get ourselves involved..."
Wang Qi nodded in agreement.
They have received Yun Zheng's order.
If the casualties of Takeshi Sanada's troops were not too great, he would let the Eighteen Ghost Riders cooperate with them to bomb the camp.
But regarding the matter of blowing up the camp, both Qin Qihu and Wang Qi had concerns.
If it was just a fight between the remnants of Takeshi Sanada and Nobuyuki Tanaka, it wouldn't matter.
They were afraid that the bombing of the camp would affect the troops they led.
With the cooperation of the Eighteen Ghost Riders, it is easy to blow up their camp, but it is not easy to control the situation.
Unless the troops they led do not enter the city.
However, if their troops did not enter the city, they did not know whether this would arouse the suspicion of Takeshi Sanada.
Or, find a suitable reason not to enter the city?
At this moment, both of them were racking their brains.
…
An hour later, the fighting in the city was basically over.
Takeshi Sanada received the heads of several southern lords as he wished.
Seeing these heads, Takeshi Sanada felt relieved.
This time, there is truly no evidence!
Wang Qi and Qin Qihu, who got the news, also hurried over.
"Is this the head of the lords from the south?"
Qin Qihu stared at the head placed there and asked Takeshi Sanada.
"Um."
Sanada Takeshi nodded heavily and said with a sense of relief: "We can finally give His Highness an explanation!"
"sharp!"
Wang Qi gave a thumbs up, "In such a chaotic situation, not a single one of them escaped!"
"It's all the soldiers who risked their lives."
Takeshi Sanada smiled modestly, and was very pleased with Wang Qi's admiring look.
"By the way, have the casualties been counted?"
At this time, Qin Qihu asked again.
“It has not been counted yet.”
Sanada Takeshi shook his head and said solemnly: "However, the casualties of my unit should be quite heavy..."
Under such circumstances, how could their casualties not be great?
Fortunately, they finally captured Fengxian City.
It doesn’t matter if there are more casualties now.
I will add more to it later.
"How about this, we still have several thousand troops under Nobuo Tanaka here, we will replenish you first."
Qin Qihu put his arm around Sanada Takeshi's shoulders and asked with a wink, "There should be a lot of gold and silver treasures in Fengxian City, right?"
Um?
Sanada Takeshi was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a smile: "After we count the damage and spoils, I'll go have a drink with you two!"
Qin Qihu directly assigned Tanaka Nobu's troops to him, wasn't he just looking for some benefits?
Unexpectedly, Qin Qihu is also a greedy person!
"no problem!"
Qin Qihu chuckled, "We didn't contribute much in this battle, so your people should have a good rest tonight. The task of defending the city will be left to us!"
Qin Qihu lowered his voice again and said meaningfully: "Our troops will only defend the city walls and gates and will not enter the city..."
Not entering the city?
Takeshi Sanada looked at Qin Qihu in confusion.
Seeing that Sanada Takeshi didn't understand, Qin Qihu immediately reminded him: "Hurry up and clean up the battlefield!"
Qin Qihu deliberately emphasized the words "clean up the battlefield".
Takeshi Sanada thought about it carefully and finally understood.
Qin Qihu's implication was that they should hurry up and plunder the gold, silver and treasures in the city!
Qin Qihu and Wang Qi did not allow their troops to enter the city in order to give his men the opportunity to plunder gold, silver and treasures!
As a reward, of course, Qin Qihu and Wang Qi would have to get a share of these gold and silver treasures...
