The infantrymen of the Han army who were still lining up to watch the battle immediately joined the massacre. The Han troops standing behind the vehicles were lined up in three rows, raising their small repeating crossbows and taking turns pointing at the Japanese Japanese troops of the Yamazaki Kingdom who were charging in the distance.
Fire.
"Whoosh~ Whoosh~~ Whoosh Whoosh~~~"
"Swish~~Swish~~Swish~Swish~~"
"Swish swish~~~swish~~swish~~swish swish~~~"
The cheerful singing of small repeating crossbows rang out in the center of the depression. The Yamatai soldiers were once again attracted by the passion for this murderous weapon. Looking in the direction of the arrow rain, the neatly arranged Yamazaki Ashigaru troops on the opposite side looked like they were in the strong wind.
Like little grasses lying on the ground one after another.
Kazuo Yamamoto was a little crazy. The uneasiness in his heart had been replaced by fear. What kind of weapons did the Han army use? They were four or five hundred meters away, but they could continue to harvest the lives of their own soldiers. Kazuo Yamamoto suddenly remembered the three thousand soldiers.
The cavalryman and the dead Okuya.
In just ten minutes, the three thousand ashigaru warriors holding spears fell into a pool of blood, directly exposing the Okuda Hitoshi and Hatamoto troops (samurai with a stone height of less than 10,000 koku) in the formation.
The soldiers in the right formation have begun to fall into chaos. Hundreds of ashigaru have begun to run backwards, disrupting the reserve team and the pony pack team (mobile transport unit) behind. A group of samurai are desperately killing these escaping troops.
The troops were routed, and the entire formation was on the verge of collapse.
"Retreat! Retreat! Come quickly, come quickly, tell the iron artillery general Koizumi Jishinro and the bow general Koizumi Jubei to retreat, and tell them not to come out, don't let the Han army find out!" Yamamoto Kazuo's reaction
He came here. If he didn't leave, he would be finished today. Yamamoto Kazuo looked up to the sky and prayed: "The opponent has an invincible artifact in his hand, Amaterasu! Open your eyes quickly and protect your people!"
Yamamoto Ichimura turned around and roared at the stunned group of generals at all levels behind him, bringing them back to reality from their chaotic consciousness. Several samurai hurriedly got on their horses and galloped away.
In the blink of an eye, Yamamoto Kazuo suddenly realized that he could not find Okuda Hijinshi below. The flag representing his identity disappeared in the chaotic crowd. No matter how hard Yamamoto Kazuo opened his eyes to look for it, he tried to identify it.
Hitoshi Okuda is nowhere to be seen either.
Yamamoto Kazuo felt a pain in his heart. He had lost another general. A samurai behind him had pulled Yamamoto Kazuo's mount over and urged Yamamoto Kazuo to get on the horse quickly. Yamamoto Kazuo looked at the hell on earth under the hill with an extremely desolate look.
, took the reins and climbed onto the horse's back. Just when he was about to shake the reins, his sight unexpectedly fell on a scene that shocked him extremely.
"Oh my God! Koizumi Jishinro! You idiot! You stupid pig! You are a double-edged cesspool, it is beyond comparison!" Yamamoto Kazuo was completely angry and cursed regardless of his image.
Military Supervisor Kazuo Kameda reminded him at an inappropriate time: "General Kazuo Yamamoto, please pay attention to your quality. You are a leading general appointed by the king himself!" Kazuo Yamamoto turned a deaf ear to Kameda's words.
On the low hill on the east side of the depression, the tiny figures of Iron Cannon General Koizumi Cishinro and his subordinates appeared faintly at some point. Looking at the movement of the vague figures, Yamamoto Kazuo knew that they were taking away the soldiers who had been given to them.
Seven hundred catapults pulled up the low hill. What made Kazuo Yamamoto extremely sad was that a long line of Han Dynasty cavalry in the depression was breaking away from the phalanx and rushing towards the iron cannon general Koizumi Cijinro.
The distance of six to seven hundred meters won't take much time.
Volume 4, Han Japanese Nu King Chapter 151: Yamamoto Kazuo is captured
Yamamoto Kazuo no longer had the time to think about what would be the tragic end for these subordinates who needed half a minute to launch an attack when they encountered the Han army's tiger and wolf cavalry equipped with repeating crossbows, long knives and spears?!
Yamamoto Kazuo quickly shifted his attention to the west side of the depression. Sadness and helplessness once again invaded Yamamoto Kazuo's heart. Three thousand ashigaru formed a front line and were rushing into the open depression, with dense longbowmen behind them.
, do they think they can save their own army?!
Yamamoto Kazuo looked blankly at the enemy formation again, and saw the crossbowmen on the right side of the square formation starting to attack one after another. The longbows in their hands gave off a dazzling cold light in the evening sky, and streams of gunpowder smoke began to rise.
, the soldiers who had just rushed down the hill kept falling into the dust.
The small repeating crossbows of the Han army once again showed their power at this time. Following the direction of the attack, Yamamoto Kazuo even saw some objects thrown up in the air. Decades of battlefield experience told him that they were parts of the human body.
Under the hill, the Japanese army formations of the Yamazaki Kingdom have all collapsed. The samurai responsible for battlefield discipline are mixing with the ashigaru and running backwards, constantly passing by Yamamoto Kazuo. A dozen of Yamamoto Kazuo's personal samurai are surrounding Yamamoto.
Kazuo's mount kept roaring and slashed at the deserters who dared to rush to them.
It's over! It's over! It's really over! Kazuo Yamamoto felt that all his thoughts were lost, and a feeling of dizziness suddenly came over him. Yamamoto's eyes went dark, and he didn't know anything anymore, and he fell down from his horse slumped.
Seeing the enemy's retreat, George ordered his subordinates, the Yamatai infantry, to advance in formation to eliminate the last Japanese soldiers of the Yamazaki Kingdom. In the distance, he saw the Han army marching in formation with their spears raised, and the sharp spears were pointed right at him.
, the Japanese soldiers of Yamazaki Kingdom trembled and dropped their weapons, fell to their knees, and shouted loudly: "We surrender to the Han army!"
Unexpectedly, Guan Hai waved his hand and shouted, and thousands of Zuo cavalry roared into the crowd. In just a moment, there were hundreds of headless corpses on the ground, and then everyone dispersed and rushed to chop them down.
The heads of other wounded soldiers and dead men.
Gan Ning was furious when he saw this. Guan Hai had just finished his addiction and was very happy. Seeing that the general was angry, he went to ask what happened. Gan Ning vented his anger on Guan Hai on the spot, scolding him for being a prodigal son.
In a battle that was basically over, he still wasted at least 500 short crossbow arrows. The most important thing was that Guan Hai led the Zuo cavalry to attack and wasted 700 to 800 strong laborers without even knowing how to fight.
How many Yamazaki war horses died?
You know, far away in mainland China, these war horses are also treasures. What's more, now his subordinates are waiting for the war horses to be replenished. What a good thing. They were all killed by Comrade Guan Hai. How can Gan Ning not be angry?
Is it heartbreaking?!
He scolded, but the task of chasing the enemy had to be done by the Zuo cavalry led by Guan Hai and Wu Anguo. After scolding Guan Hai, Gan Ning asked Guan Hai and Wu Anguo to lead a thousand Zuo cavalry to pursue the enemy.
, Guan Hai made up for his fault, and he did not dare to neglect, and immediately ordered his men and horses to work.
