Chapter 61: Shao Cheng Blocks the Gun
P.S: Large sleeves: The shoulder armor in the ancient Japanese large armor, used to protect the two shoulders, and the large one is somewhat exaggerated, the size of two small shields. Carcass: A relatively light type of armor in ancient Japan, which was good for horseback riding. Carcass: Sleeveless armor that is only used to protect the chest and back, and is generally worn by soldiers.
Long Shaocong was immersed in eating, and suddenly heard a broken drink, frightened, he couldn't hold the bento, "bang", and the rest of the tea and rice were all spilled on the ground, cheap and rotten.
Oda Katsucho next to him was also surprised, and immediately stood up to find his war horse, but he was delayed because he had to put on his armor again.
Long Shaocong saw it on the side, and hurriedly stepped forward to push the young master onto the horse, it was important to save his life at a critical moment, as for whether the armor was worn or not, of course it didn't matter.
Here, Oda Katsucho had just taken the spear handed by the soldier, and he saw a war horse, carrying the sound of the wind, jumping past him, and he raised his eyes to see that it was Hasegawa Shuichi.
After all, he is a veteran of the battlefield, since he entered the forest to rest, Hasegawa Shuichi has always been in armor, and he also sits next to his horse when he eats.
Hasegawa Shuichi rushed to the enemy general and found that except for one cavalry general, the rest of the people were all samurai on foot, and the other party directly shouted and shouted to kill, but did not mention the finances, which seemed to be no ordinary wild ambush.
Therefore, instead of making a move immediately, he grabbed the reins of his horse and asked in a loud voice, "In the Shimo-Oda retainer Hasegawa Shuichi, may I ask what your name is, and can you see people with your true face?" ”
The enemy general who immediately covered his face with a black veil smiled coldly and said, "The defeated generals are not worthy of knowing the name and surname of this general." ”
When Xiuyi heard this, he found that the other party actually claimed to be a general, and felt that things were even more strange, so he smiled slightly on the horse and said: "We are eating and resting, but Your Excellency led everyone to sneak attack, this kind of method is not too righteous." ”
"Hmph, what is there to deal with murderous people?"
After Xiuyi talked, he peeked at the surrounding situation and found that although his soldiers had stood up and each picked up their weapons, they were surrounded in a small area, and the formation was chaotic, and if a battle started at this time, it would be very unfavorable to their own side.
So, he didn't answer, but smiled and said slowly: "Your Excellency, this is the territory of the Oda family, and you dare to make a mistake here, it is too self-conscious." ”
"Phew! Nobunaga is a shameless man, and sooner or later Shogun will take his head. As soon as he heard the word Oda, the popularity of the black cloth hit up, and he shouted,
Xiuyi saw the other party's reaction like this, and he was secretly happy in his heart, the purpose of his innocent delay was to provoke the enemy and let the other party show his flaws. Therefore, the more angry the other party was, the more calm and relaxed he became, and said unhurriedly: "Your Excellency has an extraordinary bearing, has a good martial arts, and is a rare general, why bother to fall into the grass and wronged yourself, it is better to follow me into the Oda family and make contributions, it is better than being a wild samurai and a ronin, right?" ”
"Shut up! I'm loose...... I'd rather die than serve the Oda family! I advise you not to waste any more tongues, and to urge the horses to fight! ”
This shout, like a giant bell, not only Hasegawa Shuichi was thundered in both ears, but everyone present was also trembling, and the timid actually dropped the spear on the ground, and even the surrounding trees were "banging" and shaking off pieces of residual leaves......
Xiuyi saw that the other party was completely enraged, and the secret opportunity could not be lost, and immediately lifted the reins, and the war horse rushed over like a sharp sword......
Although the man in black was extremely angry at this time, his mind was quite sober, and when he saw Xiuyi's spear coming, he smiled slightly, neither dodging nor avoiding, but holding the gun with one hand, looking at the opportunity, and swept out horizontally with a "dang" sound, and it was knocking on the barrel of Xiuyi's gun.
As soon as the two of them touched their guns, Xiuyi's spear was instantly pushed aside, which shocked him so that his arms were numb, his body was crooked, and the spear touched the ground, so he narrowly escaped from the horse. As soon as he handed it over, Xiuyi suddenly understood in his heart that he was not the opponent of the other party at all.
The man in black only relied on his single arm to embarrass Xiuyi, and at this time, he made a cold sound, and the spear stabbed out in an instant, carrying the sound of the wind, towards Xiuyi's chest......
Xiuyi secretly screamed badly, seeing that the other party was coming quickly, he hurriedly lowered his head and waist, but he was still a little slower, and the big sleeve of the armor was stabbed by the other party.
The man in black saw that he only stabbed the opponent's armor, and couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart, "hey", raised the spear, tore off Xiuyi's big sleeve, and picked it up on the tip of the gun, laughing, and his subordinates saw that the Lord would win, and they also laughed.
At this time, Xiuyi's face was red, he didn't expect that he didn't even walk through the other party, he was defeated, and if he continued to fight, he would definitely die, but now he is only one of his main generals, if he is defeated and leaves, all military supplies, even the young master will fall into the hands of the enemy, and he can't afford this crime.
Just when he hesitated, he suddenly saw a red war horse, speeding past his side, Xiu must have looked at it, it turned out to be Oda Katsunaga, his heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Young master be careful!" ”
Oda Katsucho was eager to try in the back formation, and when he saw that Uncle Shuichi was defeated, he didn't greet Long Shaocong, and as soon as his legs were clamped between the horse's belly, he rushed straight to the enemy general, and he didn't answer, and he didn't have a politeness, and he raised his gun and stabbed him in the throat.
The man in black recognized it as Oda Nobunaga, secretly rejoiced in his heart, and raised his gun to parry with a "hey" sound......
Oda Katsucho saw that the other party raised his gun to meet him, and when his strength was not exhausted, he pulled back his spear and stabbed the man in black in the chest again, and the man in black blocked the spear horizontally downward, and Oda Katsucho put the gun away and stabbed him in the lower abdomen......
In a moment, the spear in Oda Katsunaga's hand flew up and down, and with the speed of stealing the bell, he stabbed out seventeen or eighteen shots, and each shot was a dip and go, never bumping into the other party, because he saw from the tricks of Hasegawa Shuichi and the other party just now, that he was by no means the opponent of the man in black, so he made up his mind to win with skill.
The man in black couldn't help but admire when he saw that Sheng Chang was young and had such skills, but the current enemy did not allow him to have mercy and hesitation for a long time, not to mention that he was burdened with national hatred and family hatred.
Long Shaocong saw that the young master and the enemy general were fighting inextricably in the back, and it was estimated that he would only add to the chaos when he went up, because he could still come in handy by wielding a few knives under the step, but he could fight immediately, but he had never learned it.
However, seeing that the situation was critical at the moment, his side was completely passive, and when he saw the iron cannon covered with an oilcloth on the flatbed, he had a flash of inspiration and quickly came up with an idea. Of course, in his eyes, those so-called iron cannons are just arquebuses.
Long Shaocong ran to the car equipped with iron cannons, lifted the tarpaulin, and shouted: "Everyone pick up the gun and fight back!" However, he shouted twice, and everyone around him looked at each other without any reaction.
When Long Shaocong saw this scene, he was very puzzled in his heart, wondering if everyone was frightened, but after thinking about it, he slapped his head with a "snap", and changed his words: "Everyone come and take the iron cannon and fight back!" ”
When everyone heard this, they all gathered around. Long Shaocong approached the water building, first picked up an iron cannon, and just wanted to load the bullet, he heard two shouts from behind him at the same time:
"Be careful!"
"Hide, there are arrows."
When Long Shaocong heard this, he hurriedly hugged his head and squatted, only to hear the sound of "ding", and the feather arrow hit the iron cannon in the car and bounced to the ground. His reaction can be said to be quite fast, but his posture is extremely ugly, and he is a little sorry for the audience.
This change suddenly broke the silence of the entire forest like a stone thrown into the water, and the wild samurai around him shook their swords, beckoning the Oda army not to move, but the others were willing to listen. As soon as one of them raised his knife and stepped forward, he was stabbed obliquely in the chest, and with an "ah" sound, he was killed on the spot.
Long Shaocong saw that the situation was out of control, and shouted: "Everyone rush out!" Suddenly, Zhongzu lightly waved his spear and fought with the wild warriors around him, and the sound of swords and guns colliding and shouting and killing instantly overshadowed the birdsong in the forest.
Hasegawa Shuichi was sitting on his horse at this time, and was giving Oda Katsunaga a view of the enemy's formation, and seeing that there was already chaos around him, he hurriedly raised his spear and shouted: "Don't mess up, everyone, protect the military rations and iron cannons!" ”
When Long Shaocong heard this, he immediately gave himself a mouthful, and secretly said that he was really stupid, patronizing himself and running for his life, forgetting about his business, so he shouted to everyone to gather over, and he kept fiddling with the iron cannon in his hand, pulling the bolt of the gun, and going to the court......
But it took a long time, Long Shaocong found that what he did was useless, the arquebus of that era was far from being comparable to modern times, every time a bullet was shot, the first thing to load was ammunition, then compacted with a rod, and finally ignited with saltpeter, and after waiting for a few seconds, it would be launched with a "bang".
And the iron cannon he was holding was just a "burning stick", for the safety of the transportation process, it was not filled with gunpowder at all, and at this time, it was loaded and fired, and the slow speed must have been swung forward by the enemy and the skull was eliminated.
Sure enough, just when Long Shaocong was annoyed, a wild warrior spared the others and rushed in front of Long Shaocong in an instant. It may be due to the fact that Long Shaocong wore a delicate small sleeve carcass pill, which made him think that different from the usual ashigaru who wears sleeveless carcass, if he took this person's head, he could receive more bounties.
I saw him shouting, and he raised his knife towards Long Shaocong and slashed, Long Shaocong was frightened, and hurriedly blocked it with an iron cannon, but when he heard a "click", the iron cannon in Long Shaocong's hand was instantly broken into two sections, and he was also taken by the opponent's knife and fell on his back.
When the wild warrior saw that the other party was so vulnerable, he couldn't help but laugh wildly, clenched his sword, and stabbed Long Shao in the chest.
At this time, Long Shaocong was lying on the ground, with nowhere to dodge, seeing that the knife had reached his chest, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, his eyes were closed, and he instantly felt the call of death.
Hearing only the sound of "poof", Long Shaocong felt a stream of blood sprayed onto his armor, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that two spears were deeply pierced into the other party's lower abdomen, and the wild samurai sword took off his hand, and with a look that refused to leave, he stared closely ahead, and went to the Western Elysium.
Long Shaocong breathed a long sigh of relief, and when he looked back, he saw two pairs of gloating eyes, staring at him, it turned out to be Yoshimaru and Yamaguchi!
Because they had not been in the army for a long time, the two of them did not participate in the battle of the siege of Mt. Hiei, but this time to transport military rations and iron cannons, due to lack of manpower, they were finally transferred by Hasegawa Shuichi and became strong men.
Because they were on the battlefield, they were still shouting to kill the heavens, and the two of them didn't talk nonsense, but pulled up Long Shaocong and stood next to the flatbed truck, quite loyal, not leaving half of the post.
At this time, the Oda army had already come out of the chaos, and some of them formed a battle formation, fighting desperately with the wild samurai, swords and guns collided, blood splattered, and there were casualties among each other; The remaining part of the spears were united with the outside, defending the rations and iron cannons to the death, preventing the enemy from entering half a step.
Long Shaocong found that although the Oda army was slightly difficult to attack, it was not at a disadvantage, and it was more than enough to defend, so he turned his head and shouted to Yoshimaru and Yamaguchi: "Quick, follow me to protect His Royal Highness the Young Lord." With that, he threw the iron cannon that had been broken in two to the ground, pulled out the boy and ran over.
As soon as the two of them heard this, this was a rare opportunity for meritorious service, and immediately followed Long Shaocong with an arrow step, especially Yamaguchi, who changed his problem of being slow and half-beating, and this time he actually ran in front of Yoshimaru, and the angry Yoshimaru couldn't stop rolling his eyes at him.
The tacit understanding formed by the three people in Panxi Village was vividly exerted at this moment, with a knife and two spears, blocking left and right to kill, and constantly having enemies fall in response. At this time, Oda Katsunaga had been knocked off his horse by a shot from the man in black, but he still fought to the death, and fought with the other party with a sword under the step.
Hasegawa Shuichi next to him also saw that the young master was in danger of surviving, but because he was the main general, he was taken care of by the enemy, and more than a dozen wild samurai surrounded him. In addition to fighting, he peeked at Oda Katsucho from time to time, and suddenly heard the sound of "dang", and found that the young master's sword was knocked away by the man in black, and Xiuyi shouted: "Young master be careful!" "But the distant water does not quench the thirst of the near, and there is no way but to be anxious.
At this time, the man in black saw that the other party was unarmed, laughed on the horse, raised his gun and stabbed Shengchang in the chest, this shot actually carried the sound of wind and thunder, and it was very violent. Hearing only the sound of "poof", the man in black obviously felt that the spear had pierced the other party, and his heart was overjoyed, but when he looked up, he saw a tall young man standing in front of his horse, and this person was sticking a spear in his chest......
