Seeing such a tragic situation, Morioka did not dare to rush forward. He looked at the shiny spear—on the uphill terrain, attacking the dense array of spears would not help him to kill himself. Morioka tried to ask Takeda Katsuyori for a detour - bypassing the sides of the pike, using the mobility of the cavalry to crush them. However, as soon as he thought of Takeda Katsuyori's black face like eating people just now, he dispelled this thought.

"Dismount and crush them with foot combat." He ordered to the squires beside him. The samurai in Takeda Katsuyori's army made the same choice one or another, jumping off their horses and leading the ashigaru infantry. They were all directly under the command of Takeda Shingen, and even the most ordinary ashigaru had been on the battlefield several times, had undergone long hours of training, and were well-equipped, making them almost invincible in white-knuckle combat.

This time, however, they ran into a hard stubble. Tsukiwa's gun formations often carried out a volley before their attack began, causing many casualties to the Takeda army and breaking up the formation of the Takeda army to a certain extent. And when the Takeda army rushed into the blind spot of the spear attack and started a hand-to-hand melee, those short swordsmen and the spears in the second row hidden in the formation would also cause them a lot of trouble.

At this moment, he was entangled with a teenager. That young man made a strange left-handed sword, and his swordsmanship was amazing, and he was guided by a famous teacher. Morioka was struggling, and suddenly found that the young man in front of him didn't seem to have a right hand - the sleeve of his right arm was empty. Could it be that this is Yuqiu's one-armed eldest son, Yuqiu's death? How can you be on the front line? Such a thought crossed his mind.

It was this moment of distraction that made Morioka pay the price. The one-armed boy slashed him in the thigh, forcing Morioka to retreat several steps. The boy did not chase him out, but continued to guard his position. Beside him, there was also a young man with very high martial arts, who was constantly supporting him. These two samurai with swords made it almost impossible to break through this front.

However, the Yuqiu Army in other positions is facing much greater trouble. After all, those iron gunners with short knives can't compare to the sharp soldiers of the Takeda Army in sword skills, and they will inevitably fall into disadvantage in close combat. There were constantly pikemen of the Yuqiu Army who were cut down in the chaotic battle, but the people in the back row would always immediately make up for it, maintain the integrity of the battle line, fall one, make up one, fall one, make up one, as if there was no end.

The water atom watched the subordinates around him fall one by one, and he only felt that his heart was like a knife, as if the blood in his heart had dried up. Just yesterday, he had 400 good brothers who drank and bragged together and ate the same pot of rice on weekdays. In the blink of an eye, more than half of them have been separated forever.

According to the tradition of the Yuqiu Army, every time the army returned triumphantly, the leader of the army would go to comfort the families of the fallen soldiers. It's not that the Water Atom Sutra has not experienced this, and every time the family members cry out heartbreakingly, the Water Atom Sutra is sad and longing for death is himself. In the previous time, more than 60 people were killed in his company. In the days when I was condoling with my family, I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat, and my mind was full of the cries and tears of my family.

And now... More than two hundred of his subordinates had fallen all around him. He didn't know how he was going to deal with the families, he didn't know what to do. It was his order, his decision, that killed so many people on this hillside. He is a murderer, the enemy of so many families, so many old and weak women and children. He vaguely remembered that the old parents and wives of those subordinates often came to him during the New Year's holidays, begging him to take care of their sons and husbands.

I said yes to them all.

Where am I worthy of them now?

The emotions of the Water Atom Sutra had completely exploded, and after another subordinate fell, he made up for it himself in stride. He didn't think about it, and he didn't dare to think about how to deal with the aftermath of so many subordinates in the future. He wished that he would die here, and once he died, he would die in battle with these glorious subordinates, and he would no longer have to think about those troublesome things, and he could be regarded as an explanation to his family.

The Water Atom Sutra didn't know that in the second company of Chang Panbei, there were many emotional breakdowns like him. Seeing so many friends and brothers dying beside him, and seeing the young master fighting on the front line without fear of life and death, all the soldiers of Chang Panbei's second company have forgotten their lives and just want to die here.

"What is the young master doing?" Seeing that time was gradually passing, Takeda Katsuyori still failed to take the hillside, and Naito Masato, who was waiting on the official road, couldn't help but be a little anxious. His troops had been in armor for a long time, but because the official road had not been opened, they were forced to wait here, and the delay was almost an hour. "That's 1,000 troops directly under the Takeda family, even if there are three times as many enemies as this, how can they not take a hill guarded by 400 people for a long time?" The more Naito Masatoyo spoke, the more strange he felt, and after handing over the troops to the lieutenant general, he personally led his guards to the front on horseback to watch the battle situation.

It's good that he didn't look at it, and he was really taken aback when he saw it. Naito seemed to feel that he was dazzled, so he deliberately rubbed his eyes and looked at the top of the hill again.

"The young master's intelligence just now said that he encountered 400 soldiers, right?" Naito asked a few of the guards beside him in a reassuring manner. After receiving their affirmative answers, Naito Masatoyo couldn't help but gasp.

"At the top of the slope, there are only 120 people left standing at most..."Naito Masatoyo muttered this sentence, but as if he still didn't believe it, he roughly clicked again, and found that there were indeed only 120 people left. And the 120 people, stepping on the corpses of their companions and holding weapons stained with the blood of their companions, still shouted and fought fiercely, and gradually suppressed the Takeda army and beat it back.

"The Koshu Army is known as the strongest army in the world, and because of its casualties, it can advance and retreat freely..."Naito Masatyo's vision suddenly became blurred, as if the tragic battlefield in front of him had disappeared, and all that remained in his eyes was the red leaf flag fluttering high. And this team of red leaf soldiers, seventy percent of the dead are still fighting to the death... After Judge Jiulang, is there really such a strong soldier in the world? ”

"Hurry up and inform the lord, I don't think the situation is right, this unit was definitely not sent to the south to investigate by chance." Naito Masatoyo shook his head, pulled himself back from his longing, and said in a deep voice, "This army must be the flag team of Yuqiu and Red Leaves, otherwise how could there be such a powerful combat force?" How could the rain and autumn and red leaves send the flag team out to reconnoitre? ”

In less time, the vanguard of the Takeda family, Takeda Katsuyori's troops, could not bear the casualties and was defeated by the second company of Tokiwabei. The ashamed Takeda Katsuyori even wanted to commit suicide, but was stopped by his guards and evacuated the official road with the rout. By this time, the 8,000 soldiers of the Takeda Army had been blocked by the 400 soldiers of the 2nd Company of Tokiwabei on the official road south of the Mikamachi Basin for a whole hour. And the 1,000 elites of the Takeda family who were pioneered by Takeda Katsura were directly defeated by the 400 soldiers of the second company.

"It's so strong, is this the flag team of Yuqiu and Red Leaves?" Takeda Shingen sat on his horse, straightened up slightly, and looked at the red leaf soldiers cheering at the top of the slope with mixed eyes, "Zhibu, no wonder you value him so much." After only two years, he promoted this son from a commoner to an important minister, and he also promised his beloved daughter to be married. When I saw him today, his method of training is worthy of your kindness. ”

"There's no time to delay, get into the basin at once." Takeda Shingen originally wanted to take the top of the slope to open up the official road, and then control the view from the heights, and then march after seeing the reality in the basin, but it was too late at the moment, so he had to rely on his own guess to command, "I guess this Red Leaf Army is bluffing, and there is no one behind the hillside." Issued an order for Takasaka Masanobu and Naito Masato's headquarters to leave the official road. Takasaka Masanobu from the left side of the hillside, Naito Masatoyo from the right side of the hillside, detour from both sides. Takeda Shingen then paused, and ordered again, "Let Anayama Nobuyuki and Koyamada Nobushige lead the army along the official road and drive straight to the hillside." ”

Seeing the Takeda Army outflanked them, the Water Atom Sutra realized that they couldn't hold out anymore. Once the troops of Takasaka Masanobu and Naito Masatyo climbed over the mountains on either side, their rear roads would be threatened. It seems that the Takeda family is no longer afraid of possible ambushes behind the hillside, but intends to boldly press the whole army in the absence of intelligence-if the Yuqiu family really has an ambush behind the hillside, the Takeda army that rashly divides its troops and marches will suffer - but they don't.

At this moment, there was a sudden cheer of excitement from the array. The water atom turned his head to look and found that the maple bird horse print of Yuqiuping and the wicker flag of the thin willow had arrived in the basin and were crossing the Nishikanda River. The battle just now was so fierce that none of the officers and men of the second company had the leisure to turn their heads to look, and they did not know that Yu Qiuping's troops had advanced here. They have long been wounded, they have been fighting, and they have reached their limits, both physically and mentally.

At this moment, the herald sent by Yu Qiuping, Mori Kolon, arrived at the hillside. When the Senkolong Prancing Horse climbed the hillside, he immediately saw the tragic situation in front of him - nearly seventy percent of the second company was killed, and almost everyone was wounded. So the order he was about to shout was suddenly resisted, and he immediately looked around for Yu Qiuyan's figure. Finally, he found a bloody face, with several scratches and a hole in his feet. The latter was being supported by Morita Sho, and after seeing Morita Kolon, he reluctantly saluted with one hand.

After seeing that Yu Qiuyu had no accident, Mori Kelong made up his mind and conveyed Yu Qiuping's order to them: "Lord Suwon has worked hard! Your Highness and the whole army will be grateful to the Second Company for its hard work! Now, His Highness ordered the second company to immediately retreat northeast along the west bank of the Kakida River, and withdraw from the gap between the two woods southeast of Mikamachi Kamiona to Mikamachi Kamiona for repair! ”

"Yes!" The water atom straightened up, ignoring several wounds on his body, and gave a straight military salute towards Senkolon, "The second company is worthy of its mission!" Please return to Your Highness! ”

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, Your Highness said, and leave the rest to the main force. The second company desperately won the battlefield location, and the Yuqiu Army will definitely defend it! ”
