Chapter 82: The Formation Has Been Broken

The Ozora and Tokugawa coalition left flank division of the Ozora and Tokugawa coalition commanded the Iron Artillery Team to reload ammunition while observing the Takeda Ashigaru Team charging at the Iron Artillery Team after being humiliated by the Burning Sky. The Takeda Ashigaru Team advanced extremely fast, and in an instant, it came to the position of three or four steps in front of the Burning Sky Iron Artillery Team.

Seeing this, some of the volunteer warriors behind the Burning Sky drew their bows and arrows again, and beckoned to the charging Takeda Ashigaru. Burning Sky also ordered to the Iron Artillery Team: "All shots!" After hearing the order, the two columns in front and behind the iron artillery team also fired at the charging Takeda Ashigaru team one after another. Projectiles shot out of the cannon at a rapid pace and burrowed into Takeda's torso.

Although the iron artillery team that burned the sky effectively contained part of the forces of the Takeda Division, the superiority in strength was irreversible. The split of the tie Fan Xiu has gradually been unable to withstand the attack of the Takeda division, showing the appearance of being defeated. However, Hirate Fanhide stubbornly resisted the offensive of the Takeda army, and sent his close attendants to Tokugawa Ieyasu for help.

As soon as Sakai Tadaji reached the left flank to support Ishikawa Shumasa, Hirate Fanhide's attendants arrived at Tokugawa Ieyasu's main camp for help, and after asking for help to no avail, he had to immediately return to Hirate Fanhide's side.

The battle formation of the Takeda Army at this time had compressed Tokugawa Ieyasu's battle formation to the extreme, and the Yamaprefecture Red Reserve led by the Yama Prefecture Red Reserve Team became entangled with the division of Kamihara Yasumasa after tearing apart the division of Honda Tadakatsu. On the one hand, Honda Tadakatsu withstood the attack of the Takeda Army's follow-up division, and on the other hand, he led his elite and Kamihara Yasumasa to attack the Yamaprefecture Red Reserve.

After finding that they were alone, the Red Reserve Brigade of Shan County immediately made corresponding adjustments. Akabi's general, Yamaprefecture Masakei, immediately turned around Chibei's troops and went towards Honda's division. Although Honda Tadakatsu's personal strength was extraordinary, he could not withstand the assault of the Red Reserve. Coupled with the cooperation of other Takeda divisions, Honda's detachment was the first to break up among the coalition forces.

The Burning Sky side also fell into a bitter battle with the Takeda Ashigaru team, and the general of the Takeda division who played against the draw Fanhide, while constantly compressing the formation of the draw, used a team of Ashigaru and two teams of archers to divide and surround the iron cannon team of the Burning Sky and the division of the Tie Fanhide.

Seeing that it was difficult to return, he shouted to the warriors and iron artillery teams under his command: "Break through with me!" After saying that, he took the samurai under his command to take the lead in breaking through in the direction where the Takeda Bow Foot Light Team was weak, and everyone in the Iron Artillery Team also followed the Burning Sky Banner to break through in the direction where they went.

With the combination of Fushiwa Akijiro's superb swordsmanship and the cooperation of the volunteer samurai, the Takeda Bow Foot Light Team was quickly torn open by Kinaka and others. Seeing this, everyone in the Iron Artillery Team immediately followed, rushed out of the gap in the encirclement, and after breaking out of the encirclement, they burned the sky and rushed directly towards the Tie Fanxiu Division.

Seeing the success of the Burning Sky Breakout, the general of the Takeda division held the sword in his hand tightly with both hands, and said to the attendants and the ashigaru team beside him: "The samurai of the Great Myojin of Suwa will charge with me!" With that, he charged towards the tie formation.

Burning Sky took the remnants of the army that broke through and moved closer to the flat Fanxiu. Although the ashigaru in the division had begun to disperse, at this time, Heite Fanhide still led the remaining samurai and ashigaru to resist stubbornly. Burning Sky flanked into the Takeda Ashigaru team, which was entangled with the Awate, and temporarily removed the threat from the left side of the Awaite. But the situation is still not optimistic, and the attendants and samurai under the flat have begun to persuade the flat to retreat.

In fact, the battle formation of the Tokugawa and Oda coalition forces has begun to fully collapse, and the right-wing division of Sakuma Nobumori and Hayashi Hidesada and others has long been unable to support it, and Sakuma Nobumori and Hayashi Hidesada and others have begun to draw their men closer to Tokugawa Ieyasu, striving to protect Tokugawa Ieyasu's own position.

Takeda's various divisions began to encircle the center, trying to wipe out the Tokugawa and Oda coalition forces and remove the obstacles from the Takeda family's Kamiraku. When Tokugawa Ieyasu found out, he immediately transferred Yasumasa Kamihara, who was entangled with the Takeda army, and Honda Tadakatsu, who had been defeated by Yamaprefecture Akabi and other Takeda divisions, to the main camp to defend him, and waited for an opportunity to counterattack.

However, Takeda Shingen obviously would not give Tokugawa Ieyasu this opportunity, and after discovering that Tokugawa Ieyasu had closed the battle line, he immediately ordered the standby sub-array next to him to bypass from the flank of the battlefield and block Tokugawa Ieyasu's way. Just as Takeda Shingen was giving orders to his subordinates, suddenly the whole person coughed violently. The attendant next to Takeda Shingen hurriedly stepped forward to ask about Takeda Shingen's situation, and after Takeda Shingen finished coughing, he waved his hand and said: "It's okay, after defeating Tokugawa, I still need to defeat Oda again before I can complete the Shangluo righteous act, how long life is, cough cough..."

After the Burning Sky and the Flat Hands Fanxiu converged, the Burning Void also suggested that the Flat Hands Toohide retreat early. After listening to the words of the burning sky, Hirate Fanxiu said to the surrounding samurai: "If we retreat immediately, it will definitely empty the left flank of the coalition army, and cause His Highness Mikawa to be in a predicament!" We must slowly lure the enemy into pursuit and give His Highness Mikawa a chance to retreat! ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky said directly to Hirata Fanxiu: "Lord Hisade, His Highness Mikawa is already difficult to maintain the battle formation at this time, and I'm waiting for Lord Ishikawa on the right side to retreat, if I don't wait for a quick retreat, I can only be wiped out by the Takeda Army!" I hope you can make a quick decision! ”

As soon as Burning Sky said this, it was immediately echoed by all the samurai. At the same time, the samurai and ashigaru who were resisting the Takeda Army also continued to disperse, and after pondering for a few breaths, he said to everyone: "Quick, move closer to His Highness Mikawa and protect His Highness Mikawa!" After hearing Hinoku's order, Hinoku and the others immediately followed Hirate Fanhide to Tokugawa Ieyasu's main camp.

However, the people led by Hirata Fanxiu were blocked by the Takeda Army that defeated Ishikawa Shumasa, and the burning sky didn't care about etiquette at this time, and said directly to Hirata Fanxiu: "Hirate-sama, we don't have to meet with His Highness Mikawa anymore, we will retreat first, otherwise the Takeda Army will come from both sides, and it will be even more difficult for us to retreat!" Seeing that Hira's face was sad, Burning Sky said directly: "His Royal Highness Mikawa has his own Tokugawa army protection, this battle has been defeated, we still need to preserve our lives to be loyal to our family, Hinode-samatsu Lord, let's retreat from Hamamatsu Castle!" ”

Just when Hirata Fanshu listened to the words of the burning sky and pondered, suddenly there was a rumor in the Takeda army, "Tokugawa Ieyasu has been defeated!" And then the sound of the Takeda Army celebrating the victory in the battle (え、え、おう is the sound of the neon samurai celebrating after their victory that we hear in Taiga dramas, eh, eh, oh!). Very good, no problem 233). When he heard this, he immediately said to his subordinates: "Quick, let's retreat to Hamamatsu City!" ”
