"Fight!" The samurai on both sides roared and waved their spears and collided with each other. At this time, the smoke on the battlefield had not dispersed. There were still a thousand people in the first group of Miyoshi Army, and Takashima Bei on the opposite side was 1,100 people. In Ashigaru, the two sides have similar combat power and there is not much difference in equipment. The Ashigaru team of the Miyoshi Army brandished three guns, preparing to teach Takashima a bloody lesson in the first round of assassination.
Takashima Bei's gun and shield soldiers were all highly skilled and well coordinated. Before the first round of assaults, they quickly spread out to form rifle blankets. They relied on their dodges and shields to block the assaults of the Miyoshi Army. Then they blocked the counterattacks and were able to gradually Moving the situation back, the Miyoshi family samurai saw that something was wrong, and immediately brandished their katana spears and swords to fight. The Kira family samurai also followed suit. The two sides fought back and forth, and the outcome could not be determined in a short period of time. .
At the same time, two groups of cavalry warriors from the Miyoshi Army gathered together and formed a huge force of 3,500 cavalry. This cavalry team was covered in navy blue armor with white third-order rhombus nails on a black background. They blinked against the flag. It seemed that Takashima Bei was not interested in the obstruction in front of him. He nimbly passed by the right wing and rushed straight towards the Kira Army's main formation. The angle of this attack was very tricky. All Takashima Bei's samurai and Ashigaru were trapped in the formation and could not intercept them. This allowed this huge cavalry team to rush past calmly.
At this time, the Mikawa samurai who were protecting the iron artillery team in the back row reacted immediately. Watanabe Takatsuna shouted, and the javelin team all replaced their spears, took out the javelins behind their backs, and turned to aim at the large group of horsemen who were charging towards them. .
"Breathe! Sprint! Throw!" Hundreds of movements that have been practiced day and night are almost engraved in the bone marrow and imprinted in the mind. In the familiar shout of Watanabe Takatsuna, a cast-iron gun head is equipped with a A javelin with a hardwood pole only weighs two kilograms. The length is just enough. Its lethality within twenty meters is definitely more than that of iron cannons and bows. It is a perfect weapon especially against mounted warriors.
Miyoshi Masashige, who was charging forward, only felt flying guns flying towards his face. The whistling flying guns were mixed with the "wuwu" roar that tore the air, which made people unconsciously shake their hearts and give them a sense of fear. Faced with this kind of A terrifying weapon that he had never seen before, Miyoshi could instinctively bend down to avoid this terrifying projectile.
Hearing a strong gust of wind blowing above his head, Miyoshi Masashige was still congratulating himself on his sharp reaction. As soon as he raised his head, he saw a black spot approaching him in an instant. Before he could react, his vision went black. He didn't know anything anymore. At this moment, he seemed to hear the shrill screams of his men and the whine of the war horses. This was his last memory in this world.
After the throwing in the front row is over, the back row immediately takes over and continues throwing. Rows of javelins thrown either fall on the horses, or directly penetrate the warriors on the horses. In front of the powerful cast iron javelins, any resistance is in vain, it can Easily tear apart the armor. Drill into the body and penetrate from the other end. At this distance, nothing can block the javelin's unstoppable attack.
After all the rounds of throwing were completed, the people killed by the cavalry team were turned upside down. The attack gradually stopped. Some javelins penetrated the enemy's neck and continued to fly towards another person. They completed one skewering of candied haws. Among them, nearly twenty people could do this. Watanabe Takatsuna is the strongest among them. No matter which part of his body is penetrated, the javelin he throws can penetrate two people. Without the command of the general, the team becomes a chicken and is no match for the javelin team.
While the javelin team was attacking the cavalry team, Naito Masashige's 500-fold cane bow team formed three rows. The three rows bent their bows and fired rapidly before retreating to the rear. It only took five seconds to complete a salvo.
, the double firepower of javelins, bows and arrows suppressed the cavalry team of the Sanhao Army, which was defeated step by step, and no longer looked as majestic as before. What is even more interesting is that although the two cavalry teams scattered, they fled in completely different directions. This gave Shigeto another chance.
The opportunity for the archers to shoot them one by one.
"The iron artillery team fights back! Fight back!" the cavalry team of the Miyoshi Army shouted, and the archery team of the Shikokuzu simply couldn't stand up to the stage. They almost achieved a non-destructive defense in front of the Kira Army, all of whom were wearing shields. This changed the situation.
It was so embarrassing that I could only wait for reinforcements from the Ashigaru team in the back row before making any plans.
Kira's several reserve teams showed strong combat effectiveness, and the Miyoshi army was almost beaten back as soon as they came face to face. Fortunately, Miyoshi's army had many generals, and gradually adapted to the attack rhythm of the several reserve teams, and slowly brought the situation back.
When Miyoshi Chokei's army was about to arrive, Mikawabi's red cavalry finally began to take action.
They had not moved before because they were responsible for guarding the long-range troops. At this time, the iron artillery team had turned to the river and moved to wait for response. The archery team and the javelin team worked together to suppress the mounted samurai of the Sanyoshi Army. The five hundred red cavalry who did not need to continue to serve as guards waved.
The riding whip spurred the horse under his crotch to suddenly accelerate and launch an assault on the Sanhao Army on the left.
Miyoshi's military force, which was entangled with Shiga Bei, suddenly felt a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling. It was a rumbling vibration coming from the earth. He looked up and saw an unfamiliar red cavalry suddenly charging out. Miyoshi Yoshihide immediately noticed this.
The movements of the cavalry, as one of the few cavalry teams in this army, his every move will attract great attention, and immediately attract the two thousand iron artillery team of the Sanhao Army to turn their guns and aim.
"Bang bang!" At a distance of sixty or seventy meters, even Kira's army's hit rate was not high, not to mention the old iron cannon's Miyoshi army could only be blinded. This wave of volleys was not completely useless, at least
They successfully attracted the attention of the Chibei cavalry. Isshiki shouted loudly, and Chibei suddenly turned around and charged at the Miyoshi Iron Artillery Team.
"No! They are going to attack the iron artillery team!" Miyoshi Yoshiken was excited and secretly cursed the iron artillery team for being stupid. Not only could they not hit anyone by shooting from such a long distance, but they also attracted the attention of the local cavalry team. Just right.
When he was about to mobilize the Hatamoto samurai, a shout boosted the morale of the Miyoshi army who was gradually falling into passivity.
"The troops from the main hall are here!"
The first support force that arrived from Miyoshi Nagakei's headquarters was the two thousand Ashigaru regiment. They happened to appear between the marching routes of the Akabi Cavalry and the Iron Artillery Corps. The leader was the Shikoku samurai Shinohara Sakibei.
, he is the second son of Miyoshi Yoshiken's retainer Shinohara Nagamasa, and his eldest brother is Shinohara Nagafusa. As soon as he saw Kira Akabi rushing over, he set up a spear formation with ease, two thousand people against five hundred people.
They were blocked by a gun formation and fired by iron cannons, giving them the confidence to block this eye-catching cavalry.
"Flank around!" Isshiki Naotaka and Shitara Sadachi shouted at the same time. The five hundred red cavalrymen immediately divided into two groups, suddenly changed directions and turned towards the left and right wings of the Ashigaru team, and made a half circle along a diagonal route.
Arriving in an arc around the flank of the spear formation, this carefully prepared forest of spears blocking the road immediately collapsed. Faced with the sudden changes in the enemy, the Shikoku people, including Shinohara Sakibei, were at a loss.
But they didn't have much time to think. A red knight rushed towards them, brandishing a red spear. The spear was as red as blood and as hot as fire. Then all the scenery in front of them became so unreal. The spears at the front were as light as wheat and fell down one after another, as if it was a false illusion.
Shinohara Sakibei saw only bright red colors, red armor, red swords and guns, spraying blood and broken limbs. Only the neighing and wailing screams of men and horses came one after another. Flags and objects gradually disappeared. , the force that we were so proud of in the past seemed like a joke. It was like babies fighting adults, so pale and ridiculous.
Another red warrior is waving a long bow in his hand. Each arrow will take away a life. He draws the bow and shoots very fast. Two breaths are one arrow. The speed of harvesting lives is not inferior to that of the flame. The same warrior, but his brother Xin was completely different, as cold and scary as a piece of solid ice.
The last memory he left behind was that of the red-blooded samurai who rushed forward. He wielded a large blood-red gun and slashed invincibly. He hadn't come to him yet, but his eyes were staring at him like an eagle. , just like a tiger staring at its prey, he felt an unprecedented trembling feeling. The next moment, his eyes flashed, and he flew up lightly, getting higher and higher from the ground, and finally saw the devastated battlefield. A corpse that has lost its head and is constantly bleeding out knows nothing.
"Three good policies will lead to death, the cavalry team will be ruined, and the remaining troops will retreat!"
"Noda Bungo Mamoru, Shinohara Sakibei was ordered to death! All Asebei were destroyed! Nasai Bei was destroyed!" Unfavorable news came one after another, seriously shaking the military morale of the Miyoshi Army, and causing a great decline in the morale of the Miyoshi family. .
"Hatata Samurai go out! We must stop the enemy cavalry!" Yoshihide Miyoshi made immediate adjustments and must save the iron artillery team no matter what.
"Assault! Destroy the iron artillery team!" Shitara Sadachi hurriedly shouted to stop the murderous Takigawa Tokimasu who was chasing after him. He gave up the pursuit of the fleeing remnants and once again divided into two groups to move left and right. The iron artillery of the Miyoshi Army The cannons were so frightened that they hurriedly loaded lead bullets and gunpowder, and many people were so nervous that they couldn't hold the connecting rod.
"Bang, bang, bang!" Suddenly there was a sound of iron cannons, which startled the Sanyoshi army. They looked around and didn't know where it came from. But at the moment when everyone was stunned, the red cavalry had quietly arrived at the two thousand soldiers. In front of the iron cannon.
"Run!" The Miyoshi Army Iron Artillery Team no longer cared about reloading. They picked up the iron artillery and turned around to run. However, two legs could not outrun four legs. Takigawa Tokimasu and Shima Tokikatsu were on the left and right. Waving large guns from left to right, he charged into the fleeing crowd, just like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, which turned into a one-sided massacre. The samurai of the Miyoshi family were unable to fight against the samurai, and the battle situation presented an embarrassing scene of imminent collapse.
"Bastard!" Akutagawa Iga, the general of the Miyoshi family's Hatamoto samurai general, was furious. He immediately rushed over to stop the massacre of the Akabei samurai. The Akabei cavalry did not fight to the death with these red-eyed Hatamoto samurai. With a whistle, five hundred Akubei samurai were killed. They all turned their horses around and headed towards the left wing. The elusive nature of the cavalry was fully demonstrated by the red cavalry. The angry Hatamoto samurai, who was pursuing on two legs, could only curse.
"The cavalry of the shogunate army defeated the iron artillery team, Anfu was cooking and Yun, and Hanchuan defended the horse to death!"
"Then Hebei retreats! Miyoshi Sunhachiro demands death! The left wing collapses! The right wing begins to retreat!"
"The main force of the main hall has arrived!" Each piece of news made Miyoshi Yoshixian's face turn blue and white. He never dreamed that he would be so difficult to deal with. He was beaten to the point of collapse just an hour after the battle started. Fortunately, Miyoshi Yoshixian Qing's main force finally arrived.
Miyoshi Yoshixian stared at the red cavalry wandering around, and finally sighed and ordered: "The troops conserve their strength and retreat immediately! Move closer to my brother's main formation!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, The novel is better and updated faster!
