230 Why are the Ming warriors afraid of fighting against the water?
Before Tokugawa Ieyasu sent an envoy over, Xiao Ruxun had a clear understanding of the surrounding route with the captured Japanese traitors, and then called Li Rusong and Liu Wei over, pointed them out to two places, and told them to lie in ambush in these two places, waiting for the Japanese army to attack Luo Shangzhi's camp in one fell swoop.

Then Xiao Ruxun told Luo Shangzhi that the Japanese army will definitely learn to be obedient in the next attack, and will realize the way to deal with artillery under limited conditions, that is, to open the range between the army formation and the army formation, replace the large army formation with a small army formation, and reduce the lethality brought by artillery.
And Xiao Ruxun himself took 10,000 elite soldiers around the side and rear of the main formation of the Japanese army, and observed the situation of the main formation of the Japanese army with a clairvoyant mirror, and saw that the Japanese army's large array was organized with its back against a hill, and knew that the hill must be the location of Tokugawa Ieyasu's headquarters, and he needed to climb high to see far, because he did not have a clairvoyant mirror, and when Li Rusong and Liu Ling's two ambushes came out, Xiao Ruxun could use these two troops to contain the Japanese army on the front line, and then led the ambush soldiers to kill and take the hills where the Japanese general headquarters was located. The Tokugawa Ieyasu army was in great disarray.
Xiao Ruxun was very sure that Tokugawa Ieyasu did not know that the main forces of the Ming army had arrived one after another.
The three ambushes of the Ming army were killed one after another, even if Tokugawa Ieyasu was a military blind, he could see that the strength of the Ming army was definitely more than 10,000, he looked around in horror and found that all the places he could see were Ming troops, Kuroda Rushui gritted his teeth and stared at the location of Xiao Ruxun's handsome banner, he saw this enemy that made him hate, the enemy who brought him shame and fear.
This capricious villain! Da Ming actually used this kind of villain as the coach! It's a state of etiquette!
He was mistaken, the state of etiquette is to treat friends, not enemies, and the more vile and shameless the enemy, the better!
All of Xiao Ruxun's command are the most elite Ningxia firearms battalion, equipped with gunners and shields, which can form the most complete firearms array, which can be attacked and retreated, and can be defended, even if they face the cavalry, they have the power to fight, not to mention the panicked Japanese army, Xiao Ruxun directly sent artillery trucks to bombard the mountains and mountains, and then took advantage of the situation to let the shield soldiers and pikemen protect the guns to advance, all the way to open the way, and easily defeat Tokugawa Ieyasu's palace troops.
There are wolves in front and tigers in the back, Tokugawa Ieyasu was flustered, he set his eyes on Kuroda Rushui, but saw Kuroda Rushui staring at a certain place on the battlefield motionless, as if petrified, he suddenly became six gods and no master, and the shortcomings of his personality hidden deep in the depths of his lack of adaptability were exposed at this moment, at this moment, he even remembered more than ten years ago, when he faced the world's martial heroes, the miserable defeat, and the panic at that time.
He still remembered that at that time, he was still younger, and he couldn't sleep all night because of this defeat and his own gaffe, and then he ordered the painter to paint the ugliness of his gaffe at that time, and let him look at his most humiliating appearance every day, so as to warn himself, and over time, he gradually developed a very deep castle, and before this battle, Tokugawa Ieyasu was already confident that there would not be that kind of ugliness again.
But now, in the face of this extremely dangerous predicament on the battlefield, he could not suppress this emotion again, and he realized that it was so difficult to change a person's personality.
On the battlefield, the sound of guns and cannons rumbled, he looked at his subordinate soldiers, he watched his subordinates sweep the remnants of the Toyotomi army soldiers defeated and retreated, like chopping melons and vegetables by the Ming army, watching the Ming army's iron cavalry galloping in the Japanese formation, watching the Ming army's foot soldiers rushing left and right in the Japanese formation, watching the Ming army's artillery spitting tongues of fire, constantly collecting the lives of his subordinates.
He also saw that his artillery team was covered by the Ming army's shells and fired without firing a few cannons, completely destroyed, the only few remaining gunners were hacked to death by the Ming army, and there was only one cannon left for the Ming army to capture, and the ones were moved away, Tokugawa Ieyasu looked at it stupidly, but he couldn't do anything, and the retainers around him kept asking him what he should do, but he couldn't make any decisions when he should have made them.
He pinned his hopes on Kuroda Rusui, but Kuroda Rusui's whole mind was on Xiao Ruxun's body, he thought about how to kill Xiao Ruxun, and didn't pay attention to the situation of the entire battlefield at all, and when the Tokugawa retainers asked him what to do, Kuroda Rushui suddenly realized that this was a battlefield and not a duel between samurai.
Therefore, he had to make a decision.
"The current situation is very dangerous, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is too strong, we must concentrate all our efforts to defeat Xiao Ruxun's army, the Chinese art of war has the saying that the thief captures the king first, this is our only way to live! Lord! We must defeat Xiao Ruxun and defeat him head-on! ”
Tokugawa Ieyasu hesitated.
"We only have this one army, if the damage is too great, how can we compete with the Toyotomi clan for the world? Our foundation is unstable, if there is too much damage, not to mention whether we can compete with the Toyotomi clan, even those local daimyo with ill intentions will not be able to suppress it, if it really comes to this time, what should we do? ”
Kuroda Rushui hurriedly said: "Now is not the time to think about this, if we think about this, we can't even keep our own name, what are we talking about fighting for the world?" I think Xiao Ruxun is deliberately going to war with us and deliberately provoking us! He has no intention of making peace with us at all, he may be thinking of annexing all of Japan! Lord, we must rush out! No matter what it takes! ”
Tokugawa Ieyasu gasped, looking at the increasingly bad situation on the battlefield, he knew that he had to make a decision.
"I know, pass the order! Behind the Sakai team and the Kamihara team, the main forces of the rest of the armies will attack Xiao Ruxun with me! Tell Team Sakai and Team Kamihara that you have to defend me no matter what! Even if it is all wiped out! Now is the time for them to be loyal to the Tokugawa clan! ”
The herald rushed out at once.
Tokugawa Ieyasu drew his sword, knowing that it was now up to him to boost the morale of his warriors.
"Gentlemen! Rush out with me!! ”
Tokugawa Ieyasu took the lead in the front line of the war, and behind him were the Tokugawa retainers and Kuroda Rusui.
Xiao Ruxun observed the change of the handsome flag at the top of the hill, and it became clear that Tokugawa Ieyasu was ready to fight against the water.
Ming warriors, why are you afraid of fighting against the water?
War!
