Chapter 201: Fleeting Change
In the end, the Awaji Navy did not find out who the murderer was, and finally threw out a pile of baked jade to blow up this small river port, and the raging fire on the river bank seemed to be silently condemning the atrocities of the Awaji Water Army, and the culprit had already died, and the perpetrators also fled, leaving only the angry people of Kizugawa.
This can be a terrible hornet's nest, the open sea mixed with Anzhai Dongyasu invaded the territory of the inland river very unobtrusively, obviously said that the autumn did not commit any crimes just to fight soy sauce, but now he slaughtered the sailors on the Kizu River, this kind of backtracking immediately caused a fierce resistance.
Therefore, many sailors active on the Kizu River united, and under the impetus of the Kira Navy, launched a large-scale attack on the Awaji Navy, using a sword and arrow without iron cannon baking, and using a civilian boat Xiaozao without an attaku ship, and the Awaji Navy, which was not inferior to the Awaji Navy, and had the advantage of the main home location, and played guerrilla warfare with the Awaji Navy.
The Awaji Navy was attacked from front to back, and for a while they couldn't take care of each other, and Antaku Fuyasu saw the crux of the problem, and immediately sent an envoy to negotiate peace with the people of Kizugawa, but how could the Kira Navy let him succeed, and the envoy was beheaded on the spot after a little provocation, and the situation inevitably fell into a stalemate.
At the same time, the battle of Funagangshan was also slowly kicking off, and at the same time as the two sides issued the order to go out of formation, the Kira army, which took the lead in advancing, made a response, and hundreds of bows and arrows lined up to pull the bowstring, and the dull sound of buzzing drove a wooden arrow to fall into the military formation of the Tanba side, and this first round of long-distance projectiles was only to measure the distance, so when the arrows that lost speed fell into the Tanba formation, it only caused some panic.
The bold Tanba people laughed at the strength of the Kira army's bow and arrows: "Hahaha! This is the bow of the shogunate? It doesn't hurt at all! ”
For this unnutritious ridicule. Naturally, Kirajun would not react. Continue a dozen steps, this time with a bow and arrows to replace them with heavier arrows. The lighter the arrow, the longer the range, while the heavier the arrow, the lack of a long enough range to shoot farther, even with a high-quality Maruki bow purchased from Sakai by the Kira family.
"Shoot the arrows!" A hysterical roar.
Hundreds of bows and arrows let go of the bowstrings, and flew out quickly under the action of powerful kinetic energy, turning into black meteors and crashing into the Naito army less than eighty meters away, and then the ashigaru skillfully pulled out a heavy arrow and opened the bow string, the movement was like flowing clouds and water, and the arrows pointed straight into the sky. Release again after hovering for less than a second.
Hundreds of heavy arrows streaked across the sky, with a sharp roar, and the swift and fierce arrows rained down, and the originally neat Naito army fell into chaos in the blink of an eye, and the ashigaru men curled up with each other in search of cover, the pace of advance was interrupted, and a high-ranking samurai shouted and cursed: "Bastard! Hurry up! Don't be stunned! Hurry up and ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the samurai was pierced through the face by a heavy arrow and fell to the ground, and the terrible screams erupted irrepressibly, and Naito Munekatsu hurriedly shouted: "Archers! Immediately suppress the bows of the shogunate army! Strike first! Be sure to rush over first! ”
The ashigaru of the Naito Army pulled up the old Maruki bows that they had gone up the mountain to hunt. The indiscriminate shooting of arrows fastened to the bowstring is different from the Kira Army's years of off-duty training. These ashigaru were all temporary military service conscripted by the people of Tanba, and they were recruited by Naito Munekatsu under the temptation of rice, and this kind of peasant army was destined to have a major characteristic of their own, and they were good at fighting against the wind and lacked preparation for the headwind.
The weak counterattack of the Naito army naturally did not bring any trouble to the Kira family, but such a light-hearted salvo had to end early, after the chaos of the first two rounds of salvos, the Naito army immediately launched an assault in the third round of salvos, and the archers had to put away their bows and retreat.
The ashigaru on both sides all lit up their spears, but the Naito army decisively found that the spears of the Kira army were shorter, and what was even more strange was that they actually held the spear in one hand and a piece like a step in the other, and the tamba samurai shouted with puzzlement and joy: "The guns of the shogunate army are short, hurry up and attack!" Crush them in one fell swoop! ”
"Hah!" The ashigaru gave a cheer of surprise, and for a while, the morale of the Fuji army was greatly boosted, and the three guns were lifted and rushed in the huge torrent, and they couldn't help but launch a surprise attack, and at this time the Kira army was also slowly accelerating, unlike the Naito army, all the ashigaru erected a wisteria shield covering the torso to meet the first round of face-to-face impact.
"Engaged!" It had been a long time since the main formation stopped moving, and at the moment when the shouting and killing sound came from afar, Kira Yoshitoki, who was sitting in the improvised formation, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the wheel drummer Ju Qiqi fluttering in the distance, and at this time, Yamamoto Shixing received the first round of real-time information.
"The right wing of the Naito army is the people of the northwest of Tanba led by the Akai and Ogino families, the left wing is the people of the central country led by the Hatano family, and the vanguard is the Shioni Kyokai Department, and there is no Naito Sokatsu's own people all the way here, he is really a cunning person!" Tokiyuki Yamamoto said with a smile.
"You can't take it lightly, especially since these Tanbo people are very good."
"Hmmm! The morale of the Hatano clan on the left flank is low, and the Akai family and the Shioi family are also samurai families belonging to the Hatano clan, so it is enough to repel this way! ”
"So what are you waiting for?" Kira Yoshishi immediately said: "The Chibei cavalry will attack immediately!" ”
The situation of the battle is indeed as expected, the morale of the Tanba people on the opposite side is not strong, and the gun and shield team that is comparable to a turtle shell of the Kira army is a little helpless, and the three long handles fall on the rattan shield every time, and the five-meter-long handle is not suitable for spear stabbing, Tanba's ashigaru people slapped and smashed for a long time and were stunned that they didn't even have a single injury, but fortunately, the opponent's small short spear couldn't stab, and there was this strange phenomenon on the battlefield that couldn't be moved and attacked.
"What the hell is going on? Why is the shogunate army equipped with so many introtters? Naito Sokatsu walked around irritably, and when he saw the stunned appearance of the countrymen, he was angry, "What are you still doing in a daze?" The ashigaru retreated without moving, and let the samurai assault! ”
This kind of play of attacking on one side and defending on the other side does not consume the physical strength of the Kira army at all, and the ashigaru on the opposite side has been weakened to varying degrees because of nervousness and hard slapping, they heard the order of the general to slowly retreat, and they hurriedly retreated, at this time, after a long period of competition and training, the Kira samurai was keenly aware of the fleeting fighter, and waved the sword in his hand and shouted: "It's now, assault!" ”
"Hah!" The spear shield team that had endured for a long time finally showed its terrifying fangs, and the spear shield ashigaru who carried the shield in his left hand and the gun in his right hand caught up with the slowly retreating Naito Ashigaru army at an acceleration, and when many ashigaru were still at a loss, he raised the long handle of the Fujiki shield to open the eyesore, and raised the spear and slammed it over.
"Whoa!" The sound was like a defeat, and the first row of Naito Ashigaru who retreated in embarrassment became the ghost of the new army at this moment, and the terrible screams that erupted from the dead Ashigaru made the back row of Ashigaru can't help but be creepy.
"Run!" I don't know who shouted out a voice, and the ashigaru began to retreat without looking back, but the samurai of the Kira army had no mercy, and they pulled out their bloody spears and chased after them with a big shield, and the samurai of the Naito side drew out their swords one after another, and launched a counter-assault against the spear and shield team, but unfortunately the slash on the wisteria shield had no effect, but was pierced by the spear shield Ashigaru next to him.
"Can't mess around! Hold it for me! Naito Sokatsu was in a hurry, and regardless of the responsibility of the general to sit in the main camp, he picked up his big gun and turned on his horse, shouting: "The samurai of the Naito family will go out with me!" ”
Three thousand Naito troops followed, including two thousand samurai of the Miyoshi family, which were the elite of Miyoshi Changqing allocated to him in order to attack Tanba, including five hundred cavalry teams, which were more elite than the more than 1,000 troops brought by the Naito family, which was the only trump card in the hands of Naito Sokatsu.
"Hah!" The samurai of the Miyoshi family had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and when they heard this order, they immediately turned over and followed Naito Sokatsu and rushed out, in addition to these five hundred horses, the Naito family also had fifty horseback warriors, and these five hundred and fifty horses were the magic weapon to deter the people of Tanba.
As soon as the Naito army came out, the defeated Shioni army in front began to withdraw to the left flank, giving up the space of the main battlefield.
Shioni Kyoye didn't show up much from beginning to end, and as for the issue of loyalty on the battlefield, he didn't even think about it, and their Tanba people surrendered to the Miyoshi family and didn't surrender him Naito Sokatsu, and they already gave face to the battle, and they fought against that group of perverted Kira family samurai? His skull wasn't broken.
Tokiyuki Yamamoto, who had been staring at the movement of the battlefield, suddenly exclaimed, "Not good! Shiga Bei's assault is too fast, and the formation is disjointed! ”
Kira Yoshishi hurriedly asked, "Where are the Red Reserve Cavalry?" ”
"It's already out!"
"Then let Otsu Bei attack, and you must snatch Shiga back from it!"
The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, just now it was a fiasco all the way to the devil crying wolf, with the decisive short-tail survival of Shinoi Kyoye, the space in the middle was made room for the Naito army, Shiga Bei's attack speed was too fast, and the weakness of the formation was exposed, especially when Naito Munekatsu led five hundred and fifty mounted samurai to charge, Shiga Bei's defense line began to collapse.
"Oops! It's too late! "Mitsui Yasutaka had just caught up with Shiga Bei's tail, when he saw Naito Munekatsu's horse warrior launch a surprise attack, brutally ramming into the gun shield that was hurriedly defending, and the spear in his hand shot one after another, each shot would take away a life, and this breakthrough in one breath actually killed more than a dozen people.
Under the leadership of Naito Munekatsu, five hundred and fifty samurai on horseback turned into five hundred and fifty irresistible monsters, and the place where the samurai on horseback passed was like a plow, and the large guns swept left and right Suddenly flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the entire Shiga defense line was pierced in pieces, as if it was a broken kettle full of holes, and there was no complete place.
