Faced with an unfavorable situation, Tokugawa Ieyasu began to think about tactics, but he soon found out in frustration that the methods he could think of were no way to pose a threat to the Ming army except for artillery bombardment, because what he could think of, those famous generals and famous military divisions of the Toyotomi army could also think of, and they must have used it, but the whole army was still annihilated, and the Ming army in front of him was obviously experienced in a hundred battles, and he didn't know how many soldiers of the Toyotomi army had been killed.

Tokugawa Ieyasu had a hunch that in addition to mobilizing a large number of artillery and bombardment with the Ming army, there was no way to deal with this Ming army, the loss of the attack was too great, even if he could break through the artillery defense line, he didn't know how many people would be lost in the end, his elite army of 30,000 people was his confidence in the world, once his men and horses lost too much, not to mention the battle between the Dingding world and the Toyotomi army, whether he could achieve a leading position in the Eastern Alliance.

Not to mention that at this moment, in the eastern part of Iwami Province, there is still a Toyotomi army that is fighting with Kuroda Rusui, Kuroda Rushui should be able to stop the footsteps of that Toyotomi army, but if it can't be completely annihilated, it will not help the current battle situation, and he will still face quite serious problems.

However, can he choose to retreat and not engage the Ming army? This is obviously not allowed, once in a battle to retreat and no longer attack, will make his subordinates think that he is afraid of the Ming army, and will make his subordinates and soldiers also afraid of the Ming army, dare not fight with it, this is very detrimental to the long-term development of Japan, they can not have fear, can not be afraid of any opponent, once feared, they will not be able to get out of the archipelago.

Tokugawa Ieyasu decided to launch a strong attack, put the only five artillery pieces on the front line and shoot at the Ming army, no matter what, it was always necessary to tear a hole, giving the Japanese army the possibility of breaking through the defense line and the Ming army in close combat, only close combat can give full play to the advantage of the large number of Japanese troops, and the Japanese army in long-distance engagements could not even attack the Ming army, let alone kill and wound.

Honda's loyal war horse was killed, he fell down in front of the battle, and lost face, because he was a little confused before, he didn't react, but now he reacted, the whole person was not good, blushing and fighting with the monkey's ass, deeply ashamed, and strongly demanded that the whole army fight again.

And this time he asked for the use of cavalry, because he noticed that part of the Ming army camp was rooted on flat ground, as long as the cavalry could rush over and open the gap, the infantry behind could keep up with the main camp, and the loss may be a little bigger, but it is better than not touching the Ming army camp.

Tokugawa Ieyasu thought about it for a while, and found that the situation in front of him could only allow such a tactic, and if he didn't use such a tactical cooperation, it was estimated that his five guns would not be of much use.

All these changes were clearly seen by Luo Shangzhi, who was standing on a high place, with a clairvoyant mirror, and he quickly judged that the Japanese army was planning to send out cavalry, and the scale of the Japanese cavalry was not large, about three or five hundred people, but the speed of the cavalry was fast, once it rushed up, if there were no obstacles, the role of artillery was not great.

Without the protection of the military formation of large shield soldiers and pikemen, the musketeers could not fight with the cavalry on the plain, but fortunately, there were camps and horses, and it was not so easy for the Japanese cavalry to rush over, so Luo Shangzhi ordered the bird gun team to light the arquebus and prepare for launch, and the three-stage shooting tactics were ready.

The Ming army relied on the protection of the camp, and the artillery team retreated to the second line, but the shotgun team did not retreat to the second line, considering the extremely strong mobility of the cavalry, Luo Shangzhi planned to use the shotgun to add an insurance to this blockade, and let the sword and shield soldiers retreat, the sword and shield hand without long weapons was not the opponent of the cavalry, and it was fatal to go up.

Luo Shangzhi's arrangement was right, Honda Tadashi held the determination to die with the cavalry team to launch a decisive charge, the speed is getting faster and faster, the Ming army came in a hurry, did not have time to dig traps, this is a big disadvantage, although there is a rejection of horses, but it is too late to cover the front of the entire battalion, so there is an open field in front of the entire front battalion, which is very suitable for the cavalry to charge.

The Ming army is not without experience in dealing with cavalry, but has no experience in dealing with cavalry in such a state, looking at the cavalry that is getting closer and closer, but still has not entered the range of the bird, which brings great psychological pressure to the gun, almost everyone has thought about why there is no longer a longer range, more powerful, more accurate and more accurate muskets appear for them to equip, the existing bird guns can no longer satisfy them.

It is no wonder that the Liaodong Army did not like to use bird guns.

"Lift!!"

The Japanese cavalry was getting closer and closer, and the Ming soldiers only had a chance to shoot once, and after a three-stage attack was completed, they had to retreat quickly and could not fall in love, and they could not hesitate.

There are a lot of people who are more nervous than them.

Honda Tadakatsu was also numb when he looked at the muzzles of the Ming army's dense black holes, but as the main general, he had to take the lead in the charge, and the moment they rushed to the range of the Ming army, the Ming army's soldiers with nervous hearts pounding finally got the order.

"Fire!!"

Pounding pounding pounding――――――

With bursts of gunfire, a thick cloud of smoke also filled the entire front line, the well-trained gunners did not love to fight, immediately after the first shot retreated, the second team immediately followed, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one shooting at the front, after the fight and ran, the third team also followed, after the fight ran, no matter whether the opposite side was a burst of people on their backs, but the sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, the gunners were really frightened, I don't know if this fence can stop the charge of the horse team that has slipped through the net, anyway, run first.

The gunners withdrew, and the appearance of the big killer behind them was also revealed, a bright black cannon car, which was the shotgun of the Ming army, which was specially designed to deal with the cavalry that rushed to kill, although it could only shoot once, but after this round of shooting, the four or five hundred cavalry were almost finished, after all, a full thousand rounds of lead bullets were fired before.

Honda Tadashi was lucky, he only saw his comrades and subordinates around him one after another were hit and fell off the horse, seeing that the fence of the Ming army was in front of him, but he felt that he couldn't rush through, and the war horse was also frightened, many people were directly thrown to the ground by the war horse, and only less than a third of the cavalry could still charge, and Honda Tadashi was one of them.

He was lucky enough to rush to the fence, the death of his comrades and subordinates made him mad, he raised the spear in his hand fiercely, and smashed the temporary fence of the Ming army with a fierce blow, and the rest of the cavalry followed, trying their best to destroy these fences, and followed those fleeing soldiers to kill them happily, but they didn't notice that after the soldiers retreated, they left behind a piece of artillery.

"Fire!!"

The shotguns roared, and the stones and lead in the sky quickly tore apart the bodies of the charging Japanese cavalry, directly knocking them into a blood mist.

The last sight before Honda Tadakatsu's eyes was a rapidly approaching stone......
