(P.S: Nagafune: Oda Nobunaga's sword, about 73.63cm long.) Also known as the famous thing Da Prajna Changguang, the work of the famous knife worker Nagamitsu, in the Muromachi period, it was worth 600 kan, because the Great Prajna Sutra was just 600 volumes, so it was named Da Prajna Nagamitsu. ）

At the foot of the Hiei Mountains, the jungle is sparse, and on top of a bare dirt mountain, a battle of life and death is being staged.

Oda Nobunaga rode on his horse, looking at the enemy troops constantly coming up from the bottom of the mountain, as if enjoying the scenery, his eyes were calm and calm, and he could not see the current appearance of the enemy at all.

The soldiers around him, facing enemies several times his size, all had resolute eyes and no fear. Due to the practice of "separating soldiers and peasants," the Oda army was fully trained in peacetime, had strict formations, and its combat effectiveness was 100 times stronger than that of the "peasant soldiers." On the battlefield, it was often able to defeat three enemies with one.

Seeing that the enemy was getting closer and closer, one of the bannermen shouted loudly: "The enemy is two hundred paces away from me. ”

Oda Nobunaga's face was still sinking like water, and he said loudly: "One hundred and fifty steps later." ”

The sonorous voice came again, "The enemy is one hundred and fifty paces away from our army. ”

"A hundred steps and then report!"

……

"The enemy is a hundred paces away from me."

"Fifty steps and then report!"

After a while, Qimoto Ashizu shouted softly: "Report to Your Highness, you have reached fifty steps!" When the soldiers heard this, they immediately tightened their bowstrings again, and the shield arrays in the front row broke off, and the spears stretched out in turn......

"Thirty steps and then report!" As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, but in an instant, they regained their resolute expressions, the bow was still full moon, and the spear was pointed outward, waiting for the arrival of the fight.

"It's already thirty paces......" Qi Benashi's voice trembled a little, after all, he had never been at such a close distance, out of battle to meet the enemy, in the blink of an eye, the enemy army would rush to him, bows and arrows, iron cannons would be useless, and the only thing left was hand-to-hand combat.

"Panic what!" After Oda Nobunaga broke off, with a wave of the military equipment in his hand, the archers on the periphery suddenly retreated, and more than a dozen heheyo yo barrels stretched out, "bang, bang......" Several loud sounds, and the projectiles roared out of the chamber and shot at the enemy who were moving forward bravely......

Tsutsui was startled by the sudden gunshot, and immediately forgot to move forward, and some of the forward ashigaru were not shot in the face by a projectile, but were shot in the chest, and for a while the sound of wailing came and went.

Because the distance was too close, the horses behind were shocked by the sound of gunfire, and immediately jumped in shock, throwing many cavalry off their horses, and at the same time, the four hooves of the hawed indiscriminately kicked and kicked the surrounding ashigaru and kicked over, and the entire attacking team was suddenly in chaos......

The Tsutsui army had not yet recovered from the panic, and suddenly saw the Oda army's shield formation open in all directions, and more than 20 ashigaru, armed with swords, rushed straight to the enemy like a tiger descending from the mountain.

The long knife drinks blood, and the strong man breaks his wrist. The Taidao team, with the heart of death, fell into the enemy formation in a group, slashed left and right, and suddenly blood splashed, and the enemy soldiers continued to fall in response, and the stump arm and limb fell all over the ground......

These people are only interested in fighting, and they never care about their own safety, because they know that there will always be companions who will be there to help them. A ashigaru held a knife in his hand and stabbed the opponent's enemy in the chest, and the enemy next to him saw that his companion was in trouble, so he immediately raised his spear and pierced the ashigaru's lower abdomen, just when he thought that the other party would definitely draw a knife to block it, he didn't want this ashigaru to raise his eyebrows, and the knife was unabated, directly piercing his companion's chest.

Seeing this, he shouted, and the spear castrated faster, but it was about to hit the opponent's skin, and suddenly the knife flashed, and his left arm was cut off, and suddenly there was a scream, blood was like a pillar, and the spear fell to the ground......

Before he could see the face of the sneak attacker, another knife came with the wind, and with a "poof", this person was in a different place, and his head rolled out of the distance, but his eyes were still wide open, and he looked surprised, and he didn't understand how he was killed when he died? A wisp of grievances has drifted over the battlefield......

Although the Taidao team had few people, it caused great confusion to the enemy army by relying on its well-trained and orderly attack. But when the Tsutsui army came to its senses, the numerical advantage prevailed, and countless spears stabbed at the two dozen Oda troops at the same time, and people continued to fall in response, and the balance of victory once again turned to the side of the Tsutsui army.

Seeing that the Taidao team was facing the danger of annihilation, suddenly heard a whistle, the Taidao team immediately retreated alternately, without any love of fighting, the shield array quickly opened, put in their own soldiers, and quickly closed, it was really seamless and fast.

As soon as the Tsutsui army saw that the other party had fled, their confidence immediately soared again, and they kept shouting, brandishing their spears, and rushed to the enemy formation again......

But seeing that they were about to engage in short-handed combat, the Oda army greeted with another iron cannon, and after beating the opponent into a daze, the Taidao team killed again, and after cutting off a person's head and broken arm in a place, they quickly retreated to their own position.

After a few rounds of tug-of-war, the Tsutsui Army had no countermeasures against this "dip-and-go" rogue play. Because Tushan is quite like an inverted "steamed bun", the higher the area, the narrower the area, the more the advantage of numbers can not be brought into play, hundreds of people are compressed in a small space, the team can not be effectively expanded, only the people in front die, and the people behind can make up for it.

Therefore, the Tsutsui Army has completely become the other party's "case board fish meat", and they are sent up one by one to test the knife for the Oda Army, so that the originally abrupt and desolate mountain bag is now bright red and colorful, and has become a veritable "blood steamed bun", which is full of headless dead corpses, which makes people shudder.

Tsutsui Shunqing saw that the attack was not smooth, so he hurriedly waved the match and shouted: "Beat the drum to help the battle!" ”

The sound of the "dong dong" drum resounded through the valley, and the Tsutsui army knew that this was a signal to urge the attack, so they cheered up again and rushed towards the enemy position, but they rushed to within 30 paces, and were blocked back by the iron cannon and the sword......

Seeing that the attack was blocked again, Tsutsui Shunkei looked up at the rising sun, which was almost in the middle of the sky, and couldn't help but feel anxious. Although he was well prepared, and the sergeants were several times that of the other party, but the Oda army was so tenacious and good at fighting, but he was unexpected, it seems that this "Owari big fool" can become a generation of overlords, not just luck.

This is just the other party's guards, if you wait for the large army to come to support, I am afraid that these people brought by yourself will be wiped out, and their heads will be in a different place......

"Stop attacking!" In order to end the battle as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night, Tsutsui Shunkei decided to change his tactics.

The Tsutsui army had been attacking for two hours at this time, and when it was on the verge of exhaustion, as soon as it heard "stop attacking", it immediately dropped the corpses and retreated like a tide.

Someone had already reported to Oda Nobunaga that the enemy had retreated and asked for instructions on the next step. Nobunaga looked at the soldiers with tired faces and blood all over his body, and commanded in a loud voice: "Tell me to go down, and be ready to fight, and no one is allowed to rest until the enemy army is repulsed." ”

The soldiers, who were full of longing for rest, heard Nobunaga's order, and their disappointed expressions flashed in an instant, and they had to shake their spirits again and wait for the battle. It was not Oda Nobunaga's ignorance of the suffering of the soldiers, but the fact that he knew that the enemy's retreat was only to organize the next larger-scale attack.

There are too few of his own soldiers, and he can't even be satisfied with the turbulent rest, everyone must be strong, block every attack of the enemy army as much as possible, and wait for the arrival of reinforcements, but the road is far away, and it will take nearly a day for the cavalry to arrive here, he really doesn't know how long these soldiers who have not slept for half a night and have not eaten breakfast can hold out.

The most hateful thing is that the thief bald actually gave the widow a trap and tricked the widow into hunting here, but he had already prepared an ambush in advance, and the choice of location was also painstaking.

Oda Nobunaga also had to secretly admire Tsutsui Shunkei's wishful thinking, but although the "banquet" was set up, whether he could eat the dish of the widow or not depended on his appetite......

"Lord beware!" Oda Nobunaga was thinking about it when he heard a shout from Moriranmaru and covered his shield over his head. He peeked up and saw countless feathered arrows in the air, pouring down like a shield from the sky, and the other party really changed his attack method and began a long-range attack.

I only heard the sound of the "clanging" of the feather arrow hitting the shield, and at the same time, there was a strong smell of blood, and more and more soldiers fell from the arrow, and some people were even pierced by the "ten thousand arrows" and shot into hedgehogs......

Because the enemy was shooting on the mountainside, the shield array arranged around the Oda army was completely useless, and the soldiers had to raise their shields above their heads to block the "rain of swords" falling from the sky.

Seeing that he could only be beaten passively, Oda Nobunaga was furious in his heart, and secretly scolded: You old thief of Tsutsui, if you let the widow catch you, I won't be able to break your body into ten thousand pieces! But the enemy is still like a method, and he can't sit still.

"All the armies listen to me!" Oda Nobunaga thought for a moment and shouted loudly: "Rush down for me, kill the enemy army, and take the head of the old thief in Tsutsui." ”

As soon as the words fell, all the soldiers immediately shouted in unison, and their morale was immediately shaken. However, the Oda army did not rush and fight without any rules, but under the cover of the shield, the archers fired a volley, temporarily suppressing the opponent's "sword rain", and then, the remaining dozen cavalry cavalry, galloping down, and constantly releasing arrows on the horse, holding spears and swords, followed closely behind, and entered the enemy camp......

When Tsutsui Shunkei saw that the enemy army had taken the initiative to attack, he couldn't help but show a smug face. The adjutant general next to him reminded: "My lord, the enemy has rushed out, let's quickly close the siege." ”

"No," Tsutsui said, waving his hand, "Let them rush and kill for a while, and get closer to us." ”

Due to the small number of people on his side, Oda Nobunaga concentrated his superior forces, in the direction of the east, rushing and fighting, trying to open a gap and break out of the enemy's encirclement, but the difference between the enemy and us was too great, although he was in the back to command, but his own soldiers were like a stone ox into the sea, completely wrapped in the Tsutsui army, often one soldier had to deal with five or six enemies, naturally heavy casualties......

Seeing that there was no hope of rushing out, Oda Nobunaga immediately turned his horse's head and ordered: "Kill to the left!" "At this time, there is no turning back, because there are enemies in front and behind, left and right, if you kill back to the mountain, it is an upward attack, which is no different from sending death, for the sake of today, only to find the enemy's weak link, and rush out ruthlessly......

Tsutsui Shunkei had already guessed Oda Nobunaga's intentions, so he couldn't help but smile slightly, and lightly waved his hand a few times, and his subordinates immediately changed their formation, no longer blindly attacking the Oda army, but winding left and right, dividing and surrounding the other party......

Oda Nobunaga only felt that there were fewer and fewer soldiers around him, until in the end, only Moriranmaru followed behind his horse, constantly shielding himself with swords and guns, and had already been hit by two arrows, struggling to support there.

The war horse under his crotch couldn't stop neighing, his mane was already sweaty, and he was on the verge of exhaustion, and his condition was not much better......

Oda Nobunaga raised his eyes and looked around, and saw that his own people were constantly falling in the midst of the sword and gun fighting, and he grabbed the war horse one by one, and said abruptly: "It seems that I, Oda Nobunaga, am going to die here today." However, this place is full of mountains and rugged trees, which is really a good place for souls to return. "After speaking, erect the long boat with a sword, and you will cut your stomach.

But at this critical moment, I suddenly heard Senlan Maru overjoyed: "Look, my lord, reinforcements are coming!" ”

When Oda Nobunaga heard this, he suddenly looked up, only to see smoke and dust all the way from the west, running dozens of horsemen, led by a young general, neither a helmet nor armor, only wearing a purple straight down, but he was extremely brave, waving the knife in his hand, rushing straight into the enemy's army, slashing left and right, the knife started, neck blood splashed, screaming all over the sky......

The person who came was none other than his son, Oda Katsunaga......
