477 Kishin Endo
Wise Kogoro's eyes flashed, and he immediately had an idea.
[Could it be that my son Date Huizong fired the gun, that little rabbit cub, actually put this kind of cold gun in the back! ] γ
Wise Kogoro deliberately called Date Terumune his own son, not only to take advantage, but also because he knew that Date Terumune's position in the hearts of Date Retainers was almost inviolable and insulting.
Sure enough, a voice came out.
[Wise Kogoro, you scum of the world, dare to insult my lord like this! ] γ
An elderly samurai rushed out on horseback, and behind him, a group of iron gunners and large soldiers.
[Tsunamo, what about your father, why haven't you seen him for half a day? γ
[My lord, I ...... My father...... My father was killed......]
Ghost Court Tsunamoto's voice was choked.
And Endo Kishin was stunned for a long time, muttering:
[Impossible...... Zuo Yue has been fighting for fifty or sixty years, and he has not died, but today he is ......]
He didn't move, but the soldiers below didn't stop moving afterwards, and the big soldiers formed a big wall to separate the two sides.
[Crush me!] γ
Sanada Nobuyuki roared angrily, and the spear in his hand slashed down, and something that made him stunned happened, this big sword was so strong that it was difficult to shake it with his strength, leaving only a scar, and it disappeared in an instant.
Narumi Katsuzaburo's eyes flashed slightly, and with a wave of his hand, a little gun skyrocketed, and it bombarded the big one fiercely, leaving countless wounds on the big one, and the cracks in the road spread to all sides. It seems like it could shatter at any moment.
Sanada Nobuyuki's breath contracted suddenly, and his eyes were full of fear and envy as he looked at Narumi Katsuzaburo. At the same time, he also understood how huge the gap between himself and Narumi Katsuzaburo was, and he was still yelling at Narumi Katsuzaburo at the beginning. It's stupid to think about it now, but fortunately Katsuzaburo Narumi didn't really do it, otherwise he might not be alive now.
Narumi Katsuzaburo wielded a boundless spear shadow and stabbed out fiercely, instantly smashing the big scars into a thousand horrors, and it was about to shatter.
At this time, the wise Kogoro arrived on horseback, and the knife in his hand turned into a whole body of strength, and the knife fell, domineering and strong!
Boom!
The big one was split in two!
[Who dares to stand in the way of my fame. Whose way of life will I be cut off!! γ
Wise Kogoro rode on his horse, murderous, and his eyes looked around like a hawk, a falcon, a tiger and a wolf, and the hearts of the officers and soldiers who had been scanned by him trembled, and a chill welled up in their hearts.
The big tree shattered, the sawdust flew in the air, and the wise Kogoro looked up, only to see that Endo Kishin and the three of them had run out for a long distance, and the eyes of the ghost garden Tsunagen were full of resentment and hatred. The anger is monstrous.
Wise Kogoro frowned slightly, this guy, he still looks like he can't be killed when he escapes, he really doesn't know what to do.
He said to Narumi Katsuzaburo:
γNarumi-sama.γ You quickly go and lead the cavalry army to aid the battle, and be sure to contain the Date army to the death, if Date Huizong and his son escape back to Kurokawa Castle. That's when everything gets bad. γ
In fact, Date Masamune has long been in Kurokawa Castle. Wise Kogoro doesn't know yet.
[Got it...... Well, wise man. Your side ......]
[I'll take care of this side myself, you don't have to worry about it!] γ
[I know, I'll do it!] γ
Narumi Katsuzaburo received the order, bowed and retreated, while Sanada Nobuyuki saluted the wise Kogoro, and then returned to his father's army with dozens of ancestors and soldiers, assisting the soldiers and horses in the battle, and the whole army pressed on it, and fought a decisive battle against Date Terumune!
The big battle broke out in a moment, wise Kogoro led the army to attack, but things were not as easy as imagined, the Date army commanded by Endo Kinobu was in complete formation, well prepared, and the various configurations were seamless, and the feather arrow projectile was shot while his own side was damaged, but it only paid such a price to successfully approach, and the Oda army still took a big advantage.
[Kill! γ
Wise Kogoro pointed his sword forward, awe-inspiring, and the Oda army immediately excited, bravely rushed to kill, and fought with the soldiers of the Date army.
Ghost Court Tsunagen and the others have run away and disappeared, but Narumi Furuta and others are not in the Oda army, the two sides started to fight, and a bloody battle broke out, and the shouts of killing and wailing were mixed, which became the main tone of the battlefield.
According to the [straight front] arrangement of Wise Kogoro, the Oda army at the front turned into the tip of the spear in the front, Ashigaru became the spear in the middle, and the archers and iron gunners became the backing in the back, and the entire Oda army under the leadership of Wise Kogoro was like an unbreakable spear, with unparalleled sharpness!
Once it finds an opportunity to open a breach, the spear can pierce the heart of the Date Army, inflicting a fatal blow.
The spear was wielded, the light and shadow were filled, and the gunfire was loud, and the power of the wise Kogoro was so strong that the soldiers of the Date army could not resist the enemy at all, and they suffered heavy casualties for a while, and gradually fell into a disadvantage.
In the Date army formation, Endo Kinobu stood quietly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and a fan in his hand waved lightly:
[Wise Kogoro, you really have a hand, and it doesn't seem to be opportunistic to be able to kill Zuo Yuezhai...... But if you think that the Date family is capable of this, then you are wrong! γ
With his words, dozens of ...... No, hundreds of iron gunners rushed forward and headed towards the Oda army.
[BangββββBangββββBang!! γ
As more than 100 iron gunners fired together, all the Oda troops in the front row were killed, and the ranks of the Oda army suddenly became panicked and unstable.
If it is a formation, there will definitely be weaknesses, and this set of tactics designed by Wise Kogoro requires all officers and soldiers to walk closely together, this tactic has an advantage in cold weapon combat, just like a car hanging array, but if it encounters iron artillery...... The Date family couldn't come up with the thousands of iron cannons that could break the car's suspension array, but against the Oda army in front of them, they could still come up with hundreds of iron cannons.
Seeing that the Oda army was unstable, the Date army counterattacked. Countless killings!
Wise Kogoro's brows furrowed, and his eyes looked at the old but still energetic figure in the Date army.
It seems to feel the gaze of wise Kogoro. Kishin Endo looked back unceremoniously, and their eyes met in the air. Brilliant sparks!
One old and one young, two generations of famous generals, through the air, doing [aura] battles.
Who is he? γ
Yamazaki Makuichi on the side wiped the sweat from his forehead and said:
[Lord, it's the Date family's Endo Bu Saiki Shin! ] γ
[Kishin Endo? The one who is as famous as the Ghost Court Zuo Yuezhai is Endo Kishin, this person is not easy to deal with! γ
When it comes to the wise Kogoro, it is often just a glance to distinguish between a person who is strong and not strong, and Endo Keishin's whole person is as cold as ice. He is extremely powerful with a wave of his hand, and he is undoubtedly a very powerful strategist who can change the situation of the battle!
No wonder he was able to sit in the position of the civil head of the Date family as a foreign minister, and he was also named the master of Date Masamune, which is really unusual!
[No matter how big the enemy is!] It's just going to be a stepping stone for me! Oni Garden Zuo Yue Zhai is like this, and Endo Kinobu will be no exception! γ
Wise Kogoro's eyes flashed, and then he suddenly withdrew all the murderous aura on his body, his eyes were very soft, and he rode forward quickly. When those officers and soldiers saw his back, they actually offset the somewhat sluggish morale a lot, so that the front was stabilized and no longer so vulnerable. Quite a few people began to follow Akekogoro.
Endo Kinobu's eyes shrank, and his face gradually became solemn, but although the deterrent power was reduced a lot. But its original intention was just to buy some time for the Date Army, and now the Iron Cannon Barrel of the Date Army is overheated. Not available for the time being, though. He has already rebuilt his defenses and is not afraid of a battle.
The formation of the Date army is still spreading, and it has even expanded a lot, covering a distance of hundreds of zhang, but the gunfire in the sky is no longer there, but even so, the smell of burning sulfur in the air is still very strong.
There is no direct attack power, so the wise Kogoro's means are useless at all, the Oda army was caught off guard and was in the middle of the enemy's volley, many people's attack and defense speed has decreased a lot, and the pace seems to be a little slow, the strength of the two armies is not much different, the Date army took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and actually completely controlled the situation and no longer retreated.
Wise Kogoro felt a little bitter in his heart, he thought that his military strategy level was enough, but today he was shot by Endo Kishin, and he knew that his level was still a big gap compared to the real famous generals. As a young person, no matter how much you think about it, there are always flaws in your ideas, and as a veteran, Kinobu Endo, there will be many fewer flaws.
[Disperse and attack from other directions!] Remember! Be sure to spread out, you can't give the enemy a chance to shoot again! γ
Wise Kogoro deliberately avoided this section, no matter how strong Endo Kishin's ability is, it is limited after all, and it is impossible to cover the entire battlefield, this side only needs to be contained, and the Oda army still has a great advantage in other directions.
Feather arrows fly, swords and guns are dazzling, a big battle begins, each other starts a bloody battle, the scale of the battlefield of thousands of people is extremely large, divided into dozens of miles of battlefield, blatantly collided!
The encounter depends on the strategist, and the decisive battle depends on the commander, such a large battlefield is uncontrollable by non-famous generals, but the remote Fujiki Shin and Akechi Kogoro are both famous generals in this kind of all-Japan platoon (no matter what the level of Achimagina Kogoro, at least he is already very famous), and every order of the two of them is very timely, and there is almost no deviation, which is shocking.
Wise Kogoro is extremely competitive, and he commanded the army to attack, while looking coldly at Endo Kishin:
[Is it Kishin Endo of the Date family? I heard that you are Zhuge Wuhou next to Date Huizong, you are scheming, what else do you have, let's use it together! γ
Endo Kinobu heard his words and smiled:
[You know a lot, but how dare the old man compare with Zhuge Wuhou...... Now the old man prefers to use the righteous way to resist the soldiers, see how you resist! γ
With his words, the fan in his hand waved lightly, and suddenly the mountains shook, and the sound of horses' hooves resounded through the battlefield.
Earthquake?
Of course not!
It turned out that the cavalry of the Date Army launched an offensive!
Wise Kogoro's face changed, he is good at mountain warfare, and he is also very strong in flat land warfare, but the cavalry is really not good, the weapons and equipment of the Oda army are more than a big cut away from the remote and poor Date family, but only the durability of the war horse is not as good as the good horse in the northeast, and the burden is not satisfactory.
Therefore, there are very few heavy cavalry, and ordinary light cavalry cannot be regarded as the top, so the cavalry is its weakness, even if it occupies Jiaxin, this situation has not changed much.
Among the thousands of troops led by Wise Kogoro, there are only more than 1,000 cavalry, and the elite level is not too high.
Unlike the Oda family, who lived in the comfort nest of the Keisaka area, Tohoku is now the poorest place in Japan (Koshin has gold mines, Shikoku has fishery, and Tohoku's economy only began to develop after Date Masamune built Sendai Castle). However, because of this, the people of the Northland are fierce, although the climate is relatively cold, but they produce good horses, Sanchun County and Date County are the two main production areas of good horses, and other places are not weak, Date Huizong has these two counties, and organized a huge cavalry force, ten hundred cavalry are all brave, and they are extremely strong.
Now Endo Kishin has abandoned the conspiracy and instead used the most ordinary righteous way, that is, the use of troops by ordinary means, and attacking the enemy's weakness with his own strength, which is really the best choice!
[This old thing, actually came to this hand...... I really didn't have an idea for a while. γ
Wise Kogoro's face is very ugly, this is completely targeted, Oda has many foot soldiers and is good at defending, while Kitachi has many cavalry and is good at attacking, this is an unavoidable fact.
Because of this, in history, starting from Date Uemune, four generations of the Date family worked hard, and in the end, if it hadn't caught up with Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who was the first to strike, it would have really ...... Of course, facts are facts, and there are no ifs.
The Date family could not unify Japan, which was a regional shortcoming and a shortcoming of time.
However, the Oda army is not a vegetarian, after so many years, the Oda army has a very good set of defending against cavalry attacks, but Ashigaru is at a congenital disadvantage after all, and if you want to defend against the impact of cavalry, you must invest a lot of troops, so it is very likely that the battle ahead will not be able to make progress, which is what Asenchi Kogoro does not want to see.
[I only hope that the cavalry of Sakuma and the Uesugi family can help me resist! β¦β¦ But then again, this idea is not realistic, Sakuma to chase Date Terumune, it is estimated that it will be another fierce battle, the Uesugi army is busy with the rectification of the bear mansion, and it will take a lot of work, it seems that now I have to face the enemy alone. γ
Wise Kogoro sighed helplessly.
A sneer crossed the corner of Endo Kinobu's mouth, although the cavalry of Wise Kogoro was elite, there were not many of them, what could more than a thousand people do? , compared to the three thousand iron cavalry of the Date Army, it is really not worth mentioning. (To be continued.) )
