Chapter 658: The Bloody Battle of Miyagawa (1)

More than a thousand people dug together, and in less than half an hour, two large pits had appeared outside the city, one of which was used to bury the fallen brothers, and the other was neatly stacked with the corpse of a newly composed body.

After the big pit was buried, I saw Kojiro carrying a wooden card that was even higher than him to the deep pit where the new writer group was buried, poking the wooden card on the ground, and tamping the soil for it with his own hands.

After doing all this, Kojiro left some ninjas to guard the outside of the castle, and the rest of the nearly fifteen hundred ninjas followed him and hurried south.

"Lord, lord, noon time has come." When the shadow of the sword poked on the ground became a small dot, I saw Keiji Maeda running towards the main formation, and he didn't forget to shout.

The clan sect, who was closing his eyes and recuperating from his mind, had been waiting for this moment for a long time, only to see him stand up suddenly, look at the east with a firm gaze, and calmly say: "Order Maeda Toshiya and others to attack the enemy immediately!" ”

"Order Sugitani to live in the house, and Omiya Kei to hold the two pontoon bridges, and never let the enemy rush over."

"It's the lord." When the clan finished speaking, the three ninjas immediately wanted to gallop east.

The order soon reached the ears of the troops in front, and after receiving the order, Maeda Toshiya and Watanabe Moritsuna led their troops without hesitation, stepped across the pontoon bridge, and rushed to the east bank.

And as soon as their nearly 1,000 troops arrived on the east bank, they did not wait to gain a foothold. I saw that the two thousand-strong troops of the Takeda Army rushed from the east and south respectively.

Seeing this, Maeda Toshiya couldn't help but say: "Lord Watanabe, the enemy is coming in two ways, and we can only divide the army into two ways to resist, otherwise it will be too much of a loss. ”

It's just a hundred meters away. After the former Tian Lijia finished speaking, the enemy had already rushed to a distance of fifty meters, and Watanabe Moritsuna listened. How dare you delay, just nod and answer, and immediately lead the army under his command. Rush towards the enemy to the south.

The two of them knew that if their own army was compressed in this small area, then it would be impossible for the east bank to have a foothold of the thousand ninja troops under the command of Wasuka Masakatsu, so the enemy would be able to defeat them individually with superior forces, so every step forward meant that there would be one more person in the Takayama army to enter the battle.

"I am Watanabe Moritsuna, the general of the Takayama family, who dares to fight with me." Watanabe Moritsuna led nearly 500 elite armor Ashigaru shouted as soon as he engaged the enemy, but the leading samurai of the Takeda family knew his bravery. And they also know that if they are taken away, then the morale of the troops under their command will inevitably drop greatly, and if they fail to stop the enemy, then the formation will be in danger. So no one stepped forward to fight.

I saw that the leading general Kakahara Kanehisa was commanding the spear ashigaru under his command, and he thought of besieging the elite armor ashigaru, and mocked: "Ha Luha, what is there to show off about the bravery of the horseman, if you want to fight me, first defeat the gun array I laid out." With that, he flashed into the array of guns. Don't give Watanabe any chance at all.

"I'm mad at me!" Hearing the roar of Watanabe Moritsuna, he was about to rush towards the enemy samurai with a spear in his hand, and more than a thousand Ashigaru of the Takeda family were all armed with three-meter spears, and they were in front of them, how could it be so easy to rush over.

It's not just that, the weapon in the hand of the fine armor is just a sword, which is much shorter than the enemy's weapon, so as soon as the two armies fought, they could only passively defend and watch the enemy step by step. …,

So Watanabe Moritsuna fights while observing, trying to find out the flaws in the enemy's gun formation, as long as he can fight with the opponent in close combat, then the power of the sword will be fully exerted, and the attack power of the spear in the enemy's hand will be sharply reduced, even if they can't be defeated in one fell swoop, they can also force them back, they retreat a few dozen meters, then there will be enough space for the follow-up ninja army to fight.

Since the troops under his command could not rush through at all, the Takeda family's spear formation showed no signs of scattering, they were like a hedgehog, which made Watanabe Moritsuna have no idea where to start, whenever he pulled out a spear, and as soon as he stepped forward, another spear or spears stabbed him, so that he had to retreat again.

Now at most, he can only not retreat or advance, seeing that some people under his command have begun to fall to the ground after being shot, and the enemy is unharmed with a three-meter long spear, he is in a hurry.

Not only that, but the enemy's rear forces have already moved, and it seems that they want to attack themselves from the other side, and they can really engage the elite armor Ashigaru, that is, the first three rows of Ashigaru, and the rear army will not move at all to have any impact on the offensive of the Takeda army.

The Watanabe Moritsuna's attack here is not smooth, and the situation on Maeda Toshiya's side is not much different from him, the scimitar in their hands is shorter than the Taidao, as long as the enemy's position is not chaotic, then they can't be reached at all.

Wasuka Masakatsu, who was arrayed behind them, thought that as soon as the battle began, the enemy would definitely desperately hold the pontoon bridge and block the army's army from crossing the river, the width of the bridge deck was limited after all, as long as the other party could hold the bridge, Maeda Toshiie, Watanabe Moritsuna, if they wanted to rush over, it was indeed a little difficult.

But what he didn't expect was that the enemy had no intention of defending by the pontoon bridge at all, and watching the two teams of fine armor and scimitar successfully set foot on the opposite bank, Wasuka Masakatsu hurriedly rubbed his eyes, for fear that he was dazzled.

But the facts told him that he was indeed not mistaken, and the two armies really attacked so easily.

Seeing this, Wasuka Masakatsu couldn't help but be overjoyed, since the fine armor and scimitar Ashigaru had successfully crossed the bridge, then it was time for the ninja army to start attacking, I saw him trim the ninja helmet on his head, pulled out the sword at his waist, and shouted: "The ninja army listens to the order, follow me to attack!" With that, he rushed to the pontoon in front of him.

But before he stepped on the pontoon bridge, he was dumbfounded, Watanabe Shougang, Maeda Toshiya led the army to rush across the pontoon bridge, but they and the army under their command were confined to a small area by the enemy, only to see that the bridgehead was densely packed with the army of the Takayama family, and this area was still gradually shrinking, under the enemy's two-sided attack, it was impossible to launch an offensive at all, and now they were just passively defending, and the spear army formation of the Takeda family was exerted to the extreme at this moment.
