Burning Sky nervously watched as the samurai and ashigaru with the Asai family's banner on their backs kept rushing into the Oda army that surrounded the Asai peasant soldiers, and there was a great intention to surround the Oda family's army. As soon as Burning Sky wanted to explain his opinion to Kinoshita Hideyoshi, the half-guards of Takenaka, who were galloping on horseback, shouted at Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "My lord, I want to surround us, I hope my lord will make a decision as soon as possible!" ”

The samurai around Kinoshita Hideyoshi also said to Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "It's all up to the lord!" We will swear allegiance to the Lord to the death! Seeing this, Burning Sky stepped forward and said, "Kinoshita-sama! Under ..."

"Order all army formations to stick to the formation, first 'swallow' the Asai peasant soldiers, half-guards, you lead all the iron artillery teams, build a battle formation on the high ground here, and beat out my thousand-layer scoop horse mark (horse seal)!" Everyone, follow me to face Asai Nagamasa! ”

The Takenaka half-guard, who had just rushed into Kinoshita Hideyoshi's main formation, turned over and dismounted, and said to the samurai who were waiting in the main formation: "You will build a battle formation with me!" After hearing this, Burning Sky immediately stepped forward and gathered his men who were on standby in the main formation, following behind the half-guards of Takenaka.

Due to the strong firepower of the iron artillery team under the Takenaka Hanbei, the Takenaka Hanbei immediately set up a crane-shaped formation in front of Kinoshita Hideyoshi's main formation. And because most of the attendants in this formation are superb in swordsmanship, they put some of these attendants at the front of the crane-shaped formation, and the half-guards of Takenaka ambushed their spears behind the formation.

Kinoshita Hideyoshi sat in the middle of the formation and looked at the half-guards in front of him who were gradually completing the formation, and asked in a low voice to the Burning Sky: "Mingshamen, who do you think will win this battle?" ”

After hearing this question, Burning Sky suddenly felt extremely tricky, like a relative or friend who has completed a stock purchase and asks you, "Will this transaction be a big profit?" Again, it's hard to answer. Burning Sky looked at Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who had a serious face, and cautiously bowed his head and said: "I am stupid, I dare not say that I will succeed or fail, and I hope that my lord will forgive my sins!" ”

After hearing this, Kinoshita Hideyoshi shook his head with a smile and said to himself, "Everything is up to the great god of Hachiman!" Then Kinoshita Hideyoshi changed his words and said to the burning sky: "Mingshamen, if you die in the battle, I still hope that Mingshamen will guard the horse mark below, and the horse mark will not fall Our army will not retreat, by the way, if Mingshamen is fortunate enough to return to Gifu, I also hope that Mingshamen can inform the lady below..."

"My lord, Asai Nagamasa's army is attacking!" Fushiwa Akijiro rushed into the main banner and said to Kinoshita Hideyoshi and Burning Sky.

"Don't worry, I will swear to protect your safety!" After bowing his head and bowing in the air, he walked out with Fushiwa Akijiro, Kinoshita Hideyoshi looked at the figure of the burning sky walking out, and said to the guards beside him: "Keep the horse seal!" With that, he picked up an iron cannon in front of him and walked out of the curtain.

Seeing this, the Kanku, who was guarding outside, said to Kinoshita Hideyoshi, "Your Excellency? After hearing this, Kinoshita Hideyoshi smiled and said, "I'm afraid that the bait is not big enough to attract big fish!" "After that, Kinoshita Hideyoshi rode on the war horse of Takenaka's half-guard, and he was about to fight his horse and go to the battle array.

Burning Sky hurriedly grabbed the reins of the horse and shouted to Kinoshita Hideyoshi's attendants, "What are you doing, why don't you bring Kinoshita-sama back to the main camp!" Seeing this, Fushiwa Akijiro also helped Akira control the war horse under Kinoshita Hideyoshi's crotch, and those close attendants reacted and hurriedly helped Kinoshita Hideyoshi off the horse and brought him back to the main camp to protect him.

And the scene of Fang Cai happened to be seen by Asai Nagamasa, who led the troops to attack Kinoshita Hideyoshi's main camp, and Asai Nagamasa roughly judged Kinoshita Hideyoshi's position, and then rushed towards Kinoshita Hideyoshi's main camp with the samurai and ashigaru at home.

The Takenaka half-guard looked at the Asai army rushing up from the bottom of the mountain, and with a wave of the sword in his hand, the bows and samurai behind him threw bows and arrows one after another. The crowd that shot a wave of arrows did not stop, and three more waves of arrows were fired in succession.

The arrows that rushed into the sky accelerated with the help of gravity, and directly inserted into the Ashigaru array that the Asai family charged forward. Some unfortunate ashigaru were shot through the kasa by arrows, and the sharp arrows went straight into the brains of these ashigaru, and after being stunned for a few breaths, blood flowed from their noses and fell to the ground with a scream.

Seeing that the Asai army was getting closer and closer, the Takenaka half-guard immediately shouted at the iron artillery team: "Shoot!" The iron cannon Ashigaru in the first row looked at the Asai samurai and Ashigaru rushing up from the bottom of the mountain, and after aiming, he pulled the trigger in his hand at the signal of the head of the group.

The charging Asai army was slammed into the ground, and the other surviving Asai samurai and ashigaru were knocked down again before they could react. Finally, under the third bombardment of the Oda family's iron artillery team, the samurai and Ashigaru who were charging ahead of the Asai army had the intention of retreating.

Seeing this, Asai Nagamasa ordered the retreating samurai and Ashigaru to continue to charge, and at the same time said to his general Anyangji Jingyo, "Jingshi, you lead the iron artillery team to attract the attention of the left wing of the Oda Army from the other side, and create an opportunity for me to break through the Oda Army!" After conveying the order, Asai Nagamasa pulled out the sword at his waist and said to the attendants and the horseback team around him, "Come with me!" ”

After Anyangsa Jingshi led the iron artillery team into battle, the originally one-sided situation gradually leveled down. Iron cannon against iron cannon is the most cruel, both sides know that if they are one step slower, they are one step closer to death. The Asai family's 300-man iron artillery team was the iron artillery team that concentrated on the left flank of the Oda army, and the inferiority in numbers and firepower quickly shook the battle formation of the left flank of the Oda army.

The Takenaka Hanbei had already discovered the disadvantage of the left flank, but they were limited by their limited forces and could only go to the Asai army, which was the first to repel the charge, and then make another plan. Burning Sky also saw the disadvantage of the left flank behind the battle, but now most of the troops were pinned down by the Asai family's desperate peasant soldiers, and gradually the Asai family samurai and ashigaru also participated in the battle, and for a time the battle under the mountain fell into a stalemate.

Just when the Takenaka half-guard was about to order the bow samurai and the bow ashigaru behind the formation to support the battle on the left flank, the Asai family's iron artillery team was suddenly attacked by the cavalry team led by Kawajiri Hidetaka, and the iron artillery team on the left wing of the Oda army saw this, put down the iron cannon and drew its sword and rushed towards the chaotic iron artillery team of the Asai family. The spearhead who was in ambush also killed the Asai army with the sword drawn and the iron artillery team rushed towards the Asai army.

Seeing this, Asai Nagamasa immediately rushed forward with his attendants and cavalry to meet the fleeing iron artillery, and the Oda army immediately took it as soon as it was good, quickly retreated into the formation, and formed a battle formation again. The chief of the guard's burning sky sighed, and at this time, Koichiro Kinoshita, who had retreated from the iron artillery team, rushed into the main camp and said excitedly to Kinoshita Hideyoshi, "Brother, when will Shibata-sama's reinforcements arrive?" ”
