Chapter 500: Battle in the Canyon (1)

"Fire!" Takuzhi Qingguang roared, his voice hoarse.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! Iron cannons rang out in unison, resounding through the valley.

"Hidden!" The Tsugawa army hid behind the big planks.

Cracking sound... Poof!

"Fire!" After a rain of bullets, the Tsugawa Iron Cannon launched a counterattack.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang!

"Hidden!" Igazaki Michishun commanded on the front line, and now the two sides are getting closer and closer, and the Tsugawa army has approached to thirty meters, which has formed a lot of pressure on the Hosokawa army.

"Second row! Advance! Fire! ”

"Hidden!" "Shoot back!"

"Goal! Thirty-five steps! Archery! "Hosokawa archers rested for a quarter of an hour and went into battle again, and as the battle became more and more intense, the archers had less and less time to rest, and even with two shifts, most of them could not rest.

Whoosh! Whoosh! More than a thousand arrows rose into the air, and in addition to the Fire Feather Battalion, Hosokawa Nobumoto also mobilized every reserve of the bow and ashigaru here.

"Hidden!" The defensive planks of the Tsugawa army were also obliquely angled, which could defend against both iron cannons and bows.

Wow! Burst! Occasionally shoot a few unlucky eggs.

"Charge!" After the double blow of the rain of arrows and iron cannons, Tsugawa Ashigaru took the opportunity to charge.

"Oh!!" The distance of thirty meters is very close, only about twenty seconds, and this time it is a plain gun. Because the spear needs a formation and moves slowly, it is impossible for the enemy to watch you line up in front of the formation, so you still use the plain spear in close combat, and you can run fast.

"Fire!" Shigehide Suzuki shouted loudly that the big tube team was used at such a time.

Bang bang bang! Boom! Iron cannons and large barrels fired in unison, and dense lead bullets flew towards the enemy. Fifty meters is the strongest killing range of the iron cannon, which is a death ditch.

Puff puff! "Ugh!" "Ahh Plop, plop, Tsugawa Ashigaru fell in pieces, but the people behind still didn't stop and rushed over quickly.

"Iron cannon retreat!" There was only time for a salvo before Takuto Kiyohiro had to give the order to retreat.

"Saga prepares to step forward! Resist! Oura gave an order to the letter and led the reserve into the defense area.

"Kill!" Tsukawa Ashi ran closer and stabbed a shot in his hand.

"Hidden!" He Bei immediately squatted down, clinging to the Guzu defense line.

Duang! Tsugawa Ashigaru slammed into the Guzu defense line, and Saga Bei resisted it to the death, and the Guzu defense line only collapsed the upper part.

"Shoot! Stab! Oura straightened up and stabbed the person opposite him in the throat with a single shot.

"Kill!" Saga Bei got up one after another, just in time to be knocked out of the height suitable for the shot, and rows of plain guns stabbed out, stabbing into the belly of the enemy who was crowded outside the defensive line.

"Uhhh "Ahh Tsugawa Ashigaru suffered a lot, and almost everyone in the front row was stabbed once, and some were even shot several times. The height of their shot just now was too high, and it didn't cause any casualties to Sagabi.

"Put away the guns! Stab again! Stab again! "Pull out your spear and stab the enemy on the other side again.

"Fight back! Counterattack! Shoot! Shoot! "Da Bai Dao personally commanded the battle, in order to make up for his previous mistakes.

"Kill!" The Tsugawa army, who had eased up, also stabbed out the plain gun in his hand.

Poof! "Uhh It was too close to dodge, and he could only watch as the spear pierced into his body.

"Kill! The attacks are non-stop! The two sides of the army crowded into this line of defense, like meat grinders, constantly stabbing each other, and the screams were incessant.

On the other side, the ashigaru of the people was also on guard, listening to the shouts coming from behind him, many ashigaru looked back nervously.

"Keep an eye on the front! Focus! Don't look left and right! Don't be absent-minded! Note! Matsunaga shouted loudly, he personally sat here, keeping a close eye on the civilians outside, and not allowing them to get closer!

"Goal! Twenty-five steps! Archery! "Fire!" Hosokawa Iron Cannon also gave up flat fire, found a good angle to raise the gun for projectile, and cooperated with bows and arrows for fire support, and thousands of arrows and lead bullets were shot into the enemy's abdomen from the air.

Poof! "Ahh Poof, Tsugawa Ashigaru fell in pieces, like a basin of cold water, poured on the heads of the Tsukawa army, instantly emptying a large area, forming a death vacuum.

"Shima Bei! Kill! Tao Zhongyuan led Shima Bei to come up with support, taking the opportunity to destroy the remaining enemy troops in front of him, and replacing the tired Saga Bei.

"Uh... Ahh

"Attack! Offensive! "The bloodied Babai Daowei wielded a sword, like a hellish Shura.

"Rush!" The Tsugawa reinforcements in the back rushed over under the leadership of the samurai. Inspired by him, the Tsugawa army behaved unusually bravely.

"Shima Bei! Fight to the death! Tao Zhongyuan also began to boost morale and prepare for this surging blow.

"Kill!" Duang! The two armies collided again, blood splattered, staining the entire defense line into a line of blood.

"T! Die! A Hosokawa ashigaru with red eyes stabbed him in the stomach. With a poof, he was shot in the shoulder.

"Ahhh I'm fighting with you! He roared frantically, discarded his gun and drew his sword, and instead of retreating, he slammed headlong into the enemy.

"Kill! Drive the enemy back! Ikeda also led a reserve force to catch up with reinforcements.

"Throw away the gun and draw the sword! Fight them with a hand-to-head fight! Kill! Oura jumped up for Shin and swung his sword directly into the enemy group.

"Oh!" The morale of the Hosokawa army, which had been reinforced, was greatly boosted, and they all pulled out their swords at their waists, stepped on the defensive line, and jumped into the enemy group.

"Drink!" Oura slashed an enemy samurai to death with a single sword, turned around, and slashed down the surrounding enemies one by one.

"Goal! Thirty steps! Hoove! "Because of the hand-to-hand combat ahead, the iron cannon and the bow adjusted the distance again.

"Archery!" The Tsugawa army in the back also fired arrows.

Whoosh! Bang bang bang! Arrows and lead bullets shuttled back and forth in the sky, and the ground was already twisted into a ball, with stumps and broken arms, and the direct killing was a river of blood.

The sky gradually darkened, the losses on both sides were not small, and the Hosokawa army repelled another wave of enemy attacks.

This time, the Tsugawa army did not attack again, and was ready to repair and eat.

Hosokawa Nobumoto seized the time and inspected various places to comfort the wounded.

"It's been the third day since you entered this valley, right?" Hosokawa Nobumoto watched them gulp down their food, the originally planned diet seemed to be ineffective, and the physical exertion during the day was huge, so naturally they ate more.

"Exactly." Honda Masanobu also saw this, but he couldn't stop them.

"Any news today?" Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at the exit again, and the crowd was still surging, dense.

"No, it's only been a day since the release of Kong Ming's lantern, and even if you see it, it won't be so fast. But... Tomorrow there should be results, if not, we have to think of another way. Honda Masanobu's answer made Hosokawa Nobumoto's mood heavy.
