Chapter 207: Chibei's Assault

The battle suddenly turned to a fierce direction, and the movement of the Kira army directly affected the deployment of the Miyoshi Army, which had 1,500 cavalry troops, 2,000 iron artillery troops, 500 banner samurai and 6,000 ashigaru, which was also his innovation based on a little intelligence of the Kira Army, and reorganized the Hao Clan Coalition Army into a pure military reserve, which also caused a lot of controversy, including his brother Miyoshi Changkei.

But his military reform still persisted, and not long after the initial establishment, he achieved a good performance in the gun battle at the beginning of the year, so having this powerful combination of firepower as a special team is also a very powerful trick put down by Miyoshi Changqing, as long as he drags the pace of the Kira army, and when his army comes, it will be encircled.

When the two ashigaru slammed together, the spear and the shield collided, the ashigaru of the Kira army raised the hammer staff in their hands and smashed it at the samurai of the Miyoshi army.

Others put on a tomahawk assault, an axe cut off three guns directly into the gun array of the Miyoshi army and opened a killing ring, several fierce generals of the three rivers also took this opportunity to kill the Quartet, the terrible roar and angry scolding from time to time remembered, spraying blood everywhere, this is no fancy blood, only the brave can live to the last moment.

Part of the Shikoku Standing of the Miyoshi Army obviously had extraordinary strength, and the collective stabbing of the three guns almost broke through the defense line of the Kira army in the first round of assault, and at the moment of contact, a round of stabbing stabbed dozens of unprepared Kira Fangashi into a hornet's nest, and then they were stabbed to death by the Kira samurai who rushed from the back row, and the whole scene fell into chaos. Samurai mixed with ashigaru. The array appears undulating.

Okochi Tsunataka changed to his favorite tomahawk. Holding a particularly weighted wisteria shield to protect half of his body, he knocked out a gap in the gun array on the opposite side with an accelerated impact, and took this opportunity to raise his tomahawk and slash wantonly, whether it was the three guns or the head that stretched out, there was no existence that could stop this kind of hand-to-hand combat tactics.

Unlike Tsunataka Okochi, Suzuki prefers to use an elongated hammer staff, with a special leather gauntlet on his hand and slamming it against the handle of the hammer, regardless of the fact that the opponent is an iron inlaid large armor. It's still a useless belly roll, as long as the head is hit, it will definitely be opened, this guy will take more than two dozen samurai armed with hammers and canes to smash all the way to the enemy, and knock a gap open.

The battle situation is gradually developing in the direction of the balance of power, but the decisive outcome is not a hammer staff with a few scoops, or a tomahawk to cut off a few heads, the enemy and us are far from the point where all the cards are out, reinforcements are deadly weapons, fresh forces and tired soldiers are completely two concepts, and now the comparison is whose reinforcements arrived first. Whoever holds the initiative on the battlefield.

"Bastard! How is this going on, and what the hell is Hekkaku Yoshi-hyun doing? How long has it been since these few steps? He did it on purpose, right? ”

Kira Yoshitoshi was anxious. Looking at the speed at which Rokkaku Yoshiken crawled like an ant, he couldn't care about reprimanding the Rokkaku family for deliberately trapping friendly forces, with nine thousand against twenty-five thousand, such a disparity of battle could not be won, but he had to win, because Kyoto behind him needed him to guard.

"Hosokawaden has led a thousand Hosokawa troops to support!" When a samurai came over to inform Kirayoshi, sure enough, he saw the old Jiang Hosokawa Mototsune, who was over seventy years old, and walked over in a military uniform wearing big armor at this time, and said directly without politeness: "His Royal Highness Kira is the righteousness of the shogunate's guardianship, and I will always keep it in mind, and today let me lead a thousand troops to block Miyoshi Changqing for His Royal Highness Kira!" ”

"But what about Funaokama Castle?"

Hosokawa Mototsune said angrily: "Jingzhaodian has led a thousand troops into Funaokama Castle, please rest assured that Your Highness will defeat Miyoshi Yoshixian!" ”

And so it was! Hosokawa Kyozhaoden guards Funaokama Castle ......" Kira Yoshitoki turned his head to look at the mountain castle on the mountain bag half a mile away, and sure enough, the two lines of the Hosokawa family fluttered, and sneered: "It's really mud that can't support the wall, it's just that!" ”

"Your Highness, go with confidence! There is old decay, and we will never let Sanhao Changqing take a step forward! ”

Kira Yoshitoki looked at this seventy-year-old man, who could have been hiding in Kyoto for a whimsical year, but at this time he took the initiative to stand up and take on the role of mortality, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything, Hosokawa Mototsune suddenly laughed and said: "The old man has lived to this age, and it is time to go to the Yellow Spring!" The only thing I remember is Fujitaka, and it is also the blessing of my Hosokawa family that he can serve Kiraden...... Without further ado! It's all up to His Highness Kira! ”

Watching the old man leave with a flying stride, Kira Yoshitoki was silent for a long time before he said: "Order the whole army to assault and be sure to break it immediately!" ”

"And! Urge the Hexagons again! Tell the hexagonal Yixian that this formation will advance west to block Sanyoshi Changqing, if the hexagonal army can't come in time to resist the Miyoshi Yixian's team, all the consequences will be borne by the hexagonal family! Speaking of this, Kira Yoshishi's eyes turned sharp, and several frightened envoys hurriedly ran out.

Rokkaku Yoshiken was closer but grinding, and the fifteen-thousand-strong army of Miyoshi Changqing, who was farther away, was rushing towards the Kira army, when a shout suddenly came: "Mikawa is ready to fight!" ”

The 1,500-strong main force of the Black Reserve is the Iron Artillery Team, the Bow and Arrow Team, and the Javelin Team, and the Red Reserve is equipped with 1,100 grenadiers, gun and shield teams, and the Red Reserve Cavalry, turning into two long dragons, ignoring the strength of their own troops several times that of the opposite side, and launching an indomitable assault.

"Assault!" Dressed in full Miyabe Jirun, wielded the naginata knife in his hand and slashed to death a samurai who obstructed him, beckoned his monks to move westward, and was incorporated into Katabei for many days and had been looking forward to the collision of real swords and real guns in the joint battle, the last battle of Funaokama was almost all the way to the past, not enjoyable at all, just now he slashed off the heads of more than a dozen Miyoshi samurai, and the troublesome Miyoshi Ashigaru hid when he saw him, this feeling is definitely much more refreshing than nesting in the temple all day.

"Assault of the whole army! Defeat the Three Good Army! One after another orders came from the mouths of the generals of each team, and Nakajo Shixiu brandished two swords to play with the second sword, rushed into the Miyoshi Army's ashigaru formation, brandished the sword and easily cut through the armor and cut off the head, and the stumps and broken arms were scattered everywhere he passed. It's like a murderous Yaksha. It makes people feel daunted.

At the same time, the flag seal of Hosokawa Mototsune's department moved westward. This Hosokawa army, which only had 1,000 men, had the courage to fight to the death and blocked the 15,000-strong army led by Miyoshi Nagakei.

"Gentlemen, look ahead! That's the Tiger and Wolf Division of Sanzuki! Hosokawa Mototsune waved the sword in his hand, pointed to the Miyoshi army in the distance, and laughed: "Gentlemen! You've already realized this, right? ”

The samurai of Hosokawa raised their swords and spears one after another, and shouted in unison, "We have come to our senses!" May it be broken for the shogunate! ”

"Then, please go to Huangquan with you! I'll see you later than Rasaka! The white-haired Hosokawa Mototo, who often whipped his mount, and the horse ran wildly in pain. Behind him were more than thirty horseback riders, loyal samurai that the Shimowazumi family was proud of.

In the face of a fifteen-fold gap in numbers, the Hosokawa army burst out with the strongest strength, Hosokawa Mototsune brandished the sword in his hand and rushed into the battle first, and then thirty horse-bound samurai, a thousand foot light roared head-on, and suddenly there was a roar and howl, and the Miyoshi army was also forced to stop and fight back with all its strength by the sudden attack, and with the two wings of the Miyoshi army encircling, soon the figure of the Hosokawa army gradually disappeared.

Riding a horse, he looked at the flag mark of the Hosokawa army in the distance, and slowly fell. Kira Yoshitoki could only sigh and say, "I'm sorry! Motojoden! ”

Regardless of the actions of the Hexagonal Army deliberately pitting friendly forces, Mikawa Bei, the main force of the Kira Army, had already fought against the Miyoshi Army. Takigawa Mashige commanded the iron artillery team to fire a salvo at the first time, and at the best killing distance of about fifty meters, the Miyoshi family was shot defenselessly.

The new type of gunpowder and bolt machine used in the new iron cannon to improve the firing range and lethality, the effective range reaches an astonishing 80 meters, but the actual best killing distance is about 30 meters to 50 meters, close to 30 meters is too dangerous to be easily touched by the team, 50 meters away is basically the probability of winning 5 million, as for the 80 meters beyond the effective range of the hit rate is basically equal to zero.

Powerful lethality and accurate sights ensure a very high hit rate, especially this group of marksmanship trained by Takigawa Yoshige, 500 rounds of ammunition were all poured out according to the five-stage rotation of shooting, and 120 people were hit at a distance of 50 meters, which is definitely something to be proud of.

"Go up!" After the attack of the rain of arrows, the Miyoshi army was obviously more experienced than before, but they still misestimated the power of the Kira army's iron artillery team, the moment the powerful new iron cannon roared, the Miyoshi army's ashigaru was like a crop that had been cut down, and the foot was directly penetrated by lead bullets and then penetrated through Ashigaru's body.

The sudden shooting did disrupt the offensive rhythm of the Miyoshi Army, but they were confident that they could catch up and block the Iron Artillery before the second salvo, which is a tactic that the West has explored in recent years, as long as a wave of assault forces the Iron Artillery Team to shoot lead bullets, they are no longer a threat, how long can you hold out? Forty meters or thirty meters? As long as you can't help but shoot, you win.

This is a trick that has been tried and tested, but they really thought wrong this time, they haven't touched another round of thunderous explosions at forty meters, this time the distance is closer and the lethality is stronger, the number of people killed in this round of salvo shooting has more than doubled, and the three good soldiers don't know that they have entered the forbidden area of life, and the closer they get to death, the faster they die.

The unrelenting Ashigaru team was determined to continue to advance, and as soon as they stepped within thirty meters, they could touch the Kira army at any time, but at this time they ushered in a new round of strikes, and the sound of thumping iron cannons flowed rhythmically round after round, killing nearly 400 people at once this time, and the hit rate was infinitely close to eighty percent, which was simply ruthless.

They did not expect that the iron artillery team of the Kira Army not only had a super fast rate of fire, but also a high hit rate that scared people to death, as long as they were shot, they were either disabled or killed, and the lethality rate was extremely high, and at the maximum fire point of less than 30 meters, there were many incidents of one shot penetrating two people, which caused as many as 200 seriously injured people in a salvo.

In the blink of an eye, more than 700 people were killed, more than 800 people were wounded, and 1,500 combat casualties were lost in just a dozen breaths.

"The Iron Artillery Team returns fire!" Miyoshi Yoshixian's face turned blue and gave orders, and a samurai of the Miyoshi Army ran over and said, "My lord! The main hall has sent a cavalry team to help! ”

"Good!" Hearing this, Miyoshi Yixian was immediately overjoyed and said, "This couldn't be better!" ”

There have always been two riding teams in the potential energy of the three good troops, one is led by Miyoshi Changqing, and the other was originally led by Ten Rivers and One Cun, because it was heavily damaged two years ago and transferred to the reconstruction of Miyoshi Yixian, the impact of losing Ten Rivers and One Cun is not only the loss of the general of the Megatron side, but also a general who is proficient in cavalry, Shikoku is short of horses, and the training of the riding warriors is all done by one person in Shihe Yicun, and the quality of this remnant tribe is obviously poor after being rebuilt in the hands of Miyoshi Yixian.

And the riding team in the hands of Miyoshi Changqing did not suffer any losses, this riding team is also the elite trained by Shihe Yicun, not only the morale is strong and well-equipped, the general is also the son of Miyoshi Lai Cheng, the brother of Miyoshi Masatsu, and the brother of Miyoshi Masasu is named Miyoshi Masashi, this 2,000-person horse riding samurai is also a trump card in the hands of Miyoshi Changqing, Miyoshi Changqing sent him in advance, obviously wanting Miyoshi Yoshiken to take out the horse samurai and cooperate with a wave of assault to break the Kira army.

Without hesitation, Miyoshi Yoshiken ordered: "Attack on horseback!" Gather the horseback team of Maseiden and defeat the Kira army together! ”

"Hah!" These horseback warriors are all from the children of the wealthy clan of Awa and Sanuki, they have their own horses with high skills, and at the same time have good training and excellent equipment, today can follow Miyoshi Chokei out of Kyoto, just to immediately win a piece of merit, these samurai morale is strong and eager to fight, just like the Mikawa of the Kira family.

"Bang bang bang!" At this time, it was another round of salvo fire, and the Mikawa Iron Artillery Team ended in the last round of salvos, and took advantage of the opportunity of the white gunpowder smoke to calmly retreat to the formation, and at this time, the Miyoshi Army who died in the Iron Artillery Team had more than 1,000 people, and at this time, the Ashigaru team on the opposite side had rushed over, and the Iron Artillery Team immediately retreated, and he didn't have to worry about being pursued, because Takashima Bei on the side had taken the initiative to stop the remnants of Miyoshi, who had lost half of the loss.
