It was already dark, torches had been lit on the tower of Changji Pass, and the Tokugawa Army's main formation opposite was also brightly lit. This incredible war that took place in an incredible place had been going on for two hours. Envoys and ninjas sent by various forces appeared around Changji, but none of them dared to come forward to dissuade them. After all, this was a battle between the retainers of the two strongest vassals in the world, and neither side was willing to take the lead in truce because it was undoubtedly a disguised concession.

In the bedroom of the Tenshou Pavilion in Nagayoshi Castle, Takayoshi Fukushima was quietly lying on the bed, making deafening snoring from time to time. What happened just now surprised Maeda Keiji. He never thought that this man had such superb martial arts and great courage at a young age, and he dared to fight with Tada Katsuka, one of the four kings of Tokugawa, and was not inferior to that veteran on the battlefield. If it weren't for the sneak attack of iron cannons, perhaps the so-called No. 1 general in the Warring States Period would have been wrapped in a horse. Not only that, when he was treating him, in the absence of medical treatment and medicine, this man could have cut out the rotten flesh on his own without anesthesia and took out the two projectiles on his left shoulder. During this period, he was even more chatting and laughing with himself, which reminded people of Guan Yunchang who was so arrogant during the Three Kingdoms.

I guess he was too tired. After disinfecting and wrapping the wound, Takagi fell asleep directly on the floor. Although Maeda Keiji disdained the high-ranking officials and generous salaries, he was a little sympathetic to this unknown young general and fought for his beliefs. Isn’t this also his original intention of traveling to various countries?

At this moment, the city tower reported that the third wave of Tokugawa's offensive had just been repelled, but the defenders suffered heavy casualties. There were only more than 40 warriors who could still fight, and less than 300 were small. If the enemy attacked again, the city would be difficult to protect.

Maeda Keiji looked at Takaki Fukushima who was sleeping soundly, took a deep breath and told Zuqing: "From now on, I will command the defenders of Nagaki Guard. You tell the soldiers that the battle has been going on for two hours. I believe His Highness Danayan is on the way to lead reinforcements. Please be sure to guard the city gates and hold on for a while. At the same time, send envoys to the nearby cities for help. I believe that they will get support soon. At that time, they will definitely defeat the enemy's army by attacking inside and outside!"

Zu Qing agreed and went down to pass the order, but the matter was far from what he said: there were so many nearby forts. If reinforcements had arrived long ago, would they wait until now? Just imagine that Nanoe had just been included in my rule, and the tycoons in the territory were still doubtful about me and would not rashly send troops to consume their own strength. Moreover, the enemy was a brave and powerful Mikawa warrior. Fighting with them was like letting their peasant soldiers die. If they offended Tokugawa Ieyasu, it would be even more terrible. However, in order to increase morale, Maeda Keiji had to deceive the soldiers in the city like this, hoping that Hideopo could arrive here as soon as possible to solve the urgent problem.

As the temporary general, Maeda Kyoji was about to go to the city tower to supervise the battle, but found that Fukushima Takaki had already sat up. I guess the conversation had just been heard. He said angrily: "Although I don't know who you are, please don't interfere in this battle. As long as I, Takaki, are still alive, I will swear to defend the city to repay my lord's kindness. Offense is the best defense. It is not my Takaki's style to shrink into the city. I will lead everyone out of the city to meet the enemy, and I will be fearless even if I die in the battlefield. Please understand."

After saying that, Gao Ji stood up and put on his complete clothes with the help of Xiao's surname, put on the head pocket that stood in front of the character "后" and endured the severe pain towards the city gate.

Looking at this somewhat tragic scene, Maeda Kyoji sighed, "I understand, I underestimated his beliefs. What kind of person would make his subordinates serve so wholeheartedly, and even put life and death aside?" With such questions in mind, Maeda Kyoji climbed the city tower and looked towards the northeast.

At this time, Hideopo was also anxiously sending envoys to investigate the battle situation of Nagayoshi Castle. Since he sent the most elite 300 cavalry garrisons to defend Higashiyama Castle, and with Shima Kiyoshi as the deputy general, there should be no doubts in the result. He just hopes to achieve the Yamato samurai style through this battle, and to bring glory to the Toyotomi family.

After three consecutive failed charges, Tadomasa Honda was indeed a little disappointed. This time he was light and simple, he did not carry large siege machinery. Although the defenders had suffered heavy casualties, whenever they attacked the trench, they would always be shot by a combination of bows and arrows and iron cannons on the city, so they had to retreat beyond the range. If they continued like this, their morale would be greatly affected. If they ended up withdrew at the end of the battle, they would definitely become a laughing stock for the world, and their face would be lost by themselves.

At this moment, Honda Tadao was surprised to find through the Nanman Teng that the defenders of the far-reaching chief, Yoshikakuen, rushed out of the city under the leadership of Fukushima Takayoshi and charged towards the formation.

"Does this madman not want to live? He fought with our army in a field, just relying on these mobs? Do you want to die?!" Honda Tadama was naturally not afraid of the miscellaneous soldiers in his eyes. He immediately ordered the entire army to be dispatched and offered a reward of 5,000 stones to seek Fukushima Takayoshi!

The Hon's samurai led by Takaki Fukushima quickly penetrated into the center of the Tokugawa Army and fought with the Honta Tadamasa in the rear. Takaki once rushed to the front of Tadamasa's horse, and even Tadama's head battling was shot by the Fukushima samurai Nasu left gate guard, and was extremely embarrassed. But after all, the number of people was at a disadvantage. Takaki's samurai gradually was surrounded by Tokugawa Samurai, and the situation was critical. The backward Football was even defeated, and the morale he had just accumulated was gone and he retreated to the rear desperately.

Tadomasa Honda retreated from the battle in panic and returned to the formation with lingering fear, ready to welcome the victory in the rear. In his opinion, it was only a matter of time to break the city. Looking at Takaki Fukushima surrounded by a group of people, he was very happy from the bottom of his heart: "I admit that this crazy man is very skilled in martial arts, but will he still die in my hands after all? The iron cannon just now did not take your life, so I don't believe that you will escape this time!"

Honda Tadamasa sat on the stool and drank tea happily. Suddenly, he felt the ground tremble, and then the teacup trembled. Just as he was puzzled, a guard rolled in front of him and stuttered, "Sir, you're not good, yes, a cavalry came from the back of our formation. Please retreat quickly!"
