Chapter 180: The Battle of Sister River (5)
Honda Tadakatsu led a team of 300 mounted samurai and rushed straight to Asakura Keiken's main camp.
Duang! Crackle! The crashing of the horses came and went, mixed with wails.
"Drink! In the next Asahakura family general Maenami Shinhachiro, someone came to die! "Shinhachiro Kurami is also a member of the Asakura family, and he stabbed the spear in his hand and pointed it directly at the throat of the incoming general.
"Drink! In the Shimohosokawa family, the general Honda Heihachiro Tadatsu! Whoever stands in my way, die! "Honda Tadakatsu dodged the stab sideways when the two horses were at odds, and with a backhand, the spear cleverly hooked, slashing the throat of Shinhachiro Koba.
With a pop, as soon as it was closed, Shinhachiro Komba was taken up.
"Kill! Take down the head of Asakura Keiken! ”
"Oh!" The morale of the cavalry was greatly boosted, and as Honda Tadakatsu rushed towards the horse seal in the center of the Asakura Honjin, the commander-in-chief, Asakura Keiken, who was in the center of the command.
"Quick! Stop him for me! At the sound of the order, three Asakura samurai slapped their horses to meet them.
"Drink! Wait for death! Honda Tadakatsu was not afraid at all, and rushed over with a wave of "Dragonfly Cut".
Puff puff! There were three muffled sounds in a row, and the three of them were all knocked over by Honda Tadakatsu together.
"Huh?" Asakura Keiken saw that Honda Tadashi was so brave that he didn't dare to take it hard, so he fled.
"Where to run!" Honda Tadakatsu was just about to chase after him, but he was stopped by Naotora Ii.
"Honda-sama! Kill the horse seal first! Chase Asakura Jingjian again! "Jing Yi Naohu was dressed in white armor, and a few drops of blood were splashed, like a blooming red flower, which was particularly charming.
"Good!" Honda Tadakatsu pulled the horse rope and caught up with the samurai carrying the horse seal, and poked him through the heart with a single shot, and then with a click, broke the horse seal of the general Asakura.
The horse seal is used to indicate the position of the general general, similar to the role of the handsome flag, the fall of the horse seal means that the formation is broken, and the life and death of the general are unknown.
"Sekihara! Assault! ”
"Devon! Assault! ”
Tao Qingxian and Hosokawa Haruyuki also rushed over with their respective reserves, and the Asakura army was in a state of confusion and fled in all directions.
*************
"Attack! The defeat of the Oda army is decided! ”
Bang... Bang!
On the other side of Yokoyama Castle, Mitamura Kunisei and Nomura Naokaka led 1,500 people to kill from the city, and the iron artillery team of the Nomura team ran at the front, occasionally firing a few shots to scare off the Oda army.
It's a pity that the Oda army is always prepared, and the perennial battle has long been familiar with the sound of the iron cannon, and there is no panic at all, but one by one they hide behind the horse fence, holding up the rattan card and quietly waiting for the arrival of the enemy.
"Goal! Enemy Iron Artillery Team! Standard Festival! Shoot! Naito Masanari commanded the bow samurai to hide behind the rattan cards, and as soon as he saw that the iron artillery team had entered the firing range, the rain of arrows fell as soon as he raised his hand and brushed it together.
Whoosh! Poof! "Ahh
The iron artillery team in front of them was in a hurry without any cover, and was shot down by this sudden rain of arrows.
"Damn! Retreat! The Iron Artillery Retreat! "Nomura Naokaka is very distressed, it is really not easy for this iron artillery team to be trained into an army.
"Move forward! Advance! Ashigaru stepped forward! "Mitamura Kunita's 1,000 foot light went up and fought with the Niwa team across the horse fence.
*************
Bang bang bang! At Oda Nobunaga's main formation, iron cannons fired in unison.
The 500 iron artillery team commanded by Sasa Narumasa had retreated to the last line of defense of the main formation, followed by Oda Nobunaga himself. At this time, Oda Nobunaga also stood with his sword on his shoulder, ready to meet the Asakura army.
Suddenly, there was a great chaos in the military formation behind the Asakura army, the main formation was broken through, and the news of the unknown life and death of the general general reached the vanguard.
"Don't mess around! Don't mess around! Just ask for Oda Nobunaga! The same wins! It's like just courting Tokugawa Ieyasu! Rokkaku Yoshiji struggled to hold the army, but unfortunately these people were all Echizen people and did not listen to him, the temporary commander.
"Lord Asakura! Here, please stabilize yourself and lead the death squad to kill Oda Nobunaga! Rokkaku Yoshiharu repeated his old trick and led a hundred dead soldiers to rush to Oda Nobunaga's main camp.
"Give me calm! We're about to win! After Asakura Jingji shouted like this, Asakura Jun calmed down a lot, after all, there are not a few of his subordinates.
"Nether Iron Rider!"
"Invincible!"
With a burst of drinking, the sound of horses' hooves was heard not far away.
"Not good! It's cavalry! Hurry, Hurry Array! Asakura Keiki punched and kicked, arranged for Ashigaru to stand up one by one, raised his spear and prepared to attack.
"Spear! Cast! ”
Airplanes! The Nether Iron Rider threw out the spears in his hands.
"Ahh Burst! Grunt...
The defending ashigaru was poked to the ground by a spear, and Honda Tadashikatsu's four-meter-long "dragonfly cut" stopped a series of three ashigaru.
"Damn!" Asakura Keiki pulled out the sword at his waist and was about to fight to the death.
Bang!
From Oda Nobunaga's main position, there was a different sound of iron cannons, and he looked back at Asakura Keiki: "Did you succeed?" ”
At this time, Oda Nobunaga was also fighting bloodily, and suddenly an iron cannon sounded as if it hit him.
"My lord! Lord! Are you alright? Sasa Narumasa stood in front of Oda Nobunaga, and Hiromasa Ryoda hurriedly stepped forward to check on the injury.
"Ahh Yes! Yes! Damn it! Oda Nobunaga was so angry that he screamed in anger, and a hole was punched in the hem of his small sleeve.
"Kill me!" Oda Nobunaga howled like an evil ghost descending from the earth, and rushed towards the dead who were already about thirty people left.
Bang! Another gunshot rang out.
This time Oda Nobunaga really saw it, a guy who probed his brain, hiding in the crowd and shooting him coldly.
"Damn!" Oda Nobunaga strode forward, and the people in front of him were not united.
"Ahh Sugitani Zenjubo didn't expect that the two shots missed, and Oda Nobunaga, who was short twenty meters, quickly chased after him, so frightened that Sugitani's Zenjubo turned around and ran, and the assassination failed.
*************
"Uh...! Cough! cough..."Asakura Keiki fell to the ground on his back, clutching his neck in pain, there was a big hole there, which was gurgling and bleeding, and his feet were still kicking.
A horse stopped beside him, and a young man dismounted from the horse cut off his head with a single sword.
"Asakura Keiki was begged for by my Kamihara Yasumasa!" Yasumasa Kamihara raised his head excitedly, this is the adopted son of the Asakura family, the "God of War" Asakura Sodrip of the Asakura family.
"Devon! Assault! ”
"Sekihara Bei, assault!"
With the arrival of the Hosokawa army, the Asakura army no longer had any chance of victory, and Rokkaku Yoshiharu also fled out of the crowd at this time.
"My lord! Your Majesty's rescue is late, and please punish the lord! Hosokawa Nobumoto came to Oda Nobunaga in a "golden beauty with feet" and knelt down on one knee.
"Hahaha! Good! Rokuro, you've come just in time! It's time to fight back against the Asai family, come with me to fight the killing field! "Oda Nobunaga has risen to the occasion, and now only the tired Asai army in front is left, and victory is at hand.
"Yes!" After receiving the order, Hosokawa Nobumoto got up and pulled out his waist to "press and cut".
"Goal! Asai Jun! Open road for the Lord! Kill me! ”
"Oh!" The 2,000 troops of the Hosokawa family were thrown into the decisive battle.
