This cavalry is the iron cavalry of the Broken Army, but this is the Thousand Corps led by Jiaxin, which is said to be the Thousand Corps, and now after absorbing a large number of Mongols and Jurchens, the number has now reached nearly 3,000. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Nan Yong is here to monitor the role of liaison, and the main participation in the war is completed by the Jiaxin Thousand Corps.

It was not the Ming people who attacked the shogunate army, it was used at that time, not only to attack the shogunate, but also not to let the shogunate army lose too much blood, and this balance must also be grasped, otherwise it will be extremely unfavorable to the broken army.

Since the main task was to monitor the contact, Nan Yong did not think about going into battle, and he took a hundred guards to the rear.

Gashin, Etuhun, and Bagen each led hundreds of horsemen to rush towards the right flank of the shogunate army like a wolf.

At this time, Tokugawa Yoshinobu was shocked, but in the midst of thousands of troops, he could only send someone to tell the samurai on the right flank that they must withstand the impact of the opposing cavalry, otherwise the formation would be in danger of collapsing, and the two sides on the front were still scorching and could not retreat at all, otherwise it would be a situation of defeat and annihilation.

The only 400 cavalry of the shogunate army met them, and they were mainly 200 cavalry of the Kii Domain, supplemented by other cavalry, and these were the cavalry.

It is said that the army of more than 20,000 people is not so miserable, and more than 20,000 people are just so many cavalry, but in the Wa Shogunate, the cavalry is very important, and it is often regarded as a sign of whether there is no dissent, so many feudal states have abandoned the cavalry, that is, let the shogunate not find trouble with them, and the feudal kingdom is often just dozens of cavalry to probe and communicate, where does the large cavalry come from at this time.

The cavalry of the shogunate, dressed in leather armor, riding Kai warhorses, were also heroic, and they shouted and rushed towards the cavalry that had outnumbered them.

It's a pity that the Kai war horse is a dwarf horse compared to the opponent's Shidao horse, and because the horse is short and weak, often the rider can't put on the iron armor, the armor is extremely reluctant, and the protection is extremely poor, while the opponent has protection, not at all at the same level.

The two sides first fired arrows, and the heavy arrows of the cavalry under the command of Kasin Bagen could break the armor and cause great damage to the cavalry, while the power of the cavalry bows of the feudal soldiers could only break through the leather armor and injure the horses.

In the stage of bow and crossbow shooting, the Canadian New Division had the upper hand, and the two armies met to engage in hand-to-hand combat, and the cavalry spears of the Canadian New Division were condescending and not at all the opponent could be low-grade.

The Canadian New Division only suffered dozens of casualties before engulfing the more than 400 cavalry.

The cavalry of the Kashin Thousand Corps continued to advance, and they approached only a few dozen paces of the shogunate army, and both sides began to attack each other.

The sound of firing bows and arrows and arrows breaking through the air was incessant, and dense arrows staggered through the air.

Because of their stature and arm strength, the Japanese people's foot bows are not considered strong bows and crossbows, and the iron armor equipment of the Japanese people is not common, most of them are leather armor and bamboo armor, so their arrows have limited damage to the armor.

In order to ride forward lightly, the Jiaxinqian Corps did not wear iron armor this time, but the leather armor and the leather robe outside were equivalent to the protection of double leather armor.

And the Shidao horses they sat on were all wearing leather armor, and the arrows of the Japanese could only cause the Shidao horses to suffer minor injuries, which did not affect the gallop of the war horses.

These Jurchens and Mongols did not rush directly towards the military formation, but they kept firing their bows and arrows at the Japanese along the other side's military formation at a distance of forty or fifty paces from the territory.

The heavy arrows of the Jurchens were armor-piercing weapons at this distance, and the leather armor and bamboo armor commonly equipped by the Japanese people had little defense against the heavy arrows.

At this time, the battle results caused by the Jiaxin Thousand Corps were really like the effect of a platoon of guns, and they strafed along the front line of the opponent's army formation for dozens of paces, and everywhere they went, the Japanese soldiers on the opposite side fell down.

Of course, such a situation of being beaten could not be tolerated, and the samurai at all levels hurriedly ordered the army to rush forward and shorten the distance with these cavalry.

The problem is that the opponent's cavalry is more mobile and experienced, and as soon as they see the premise of the Japanese army's formation, they immediately retreat backwards, that is, they keep this distance unchanged and never easily fall into the formation.

Before these Jurchens were submissive to the Broken Army, they fought with the Ming people on this road, and the direct impact on the army formation was too bad, they all acted like this, and they were really familiar with this set of tactics.

Of course, this trick is not very easy to do when encountering the Broken Army, because the range of the Broken Arms Gun is too long, and you can attack them outside the range of their bows, and this process is definitely not comfortable.

However, when encountering a Japanese battle formation with the same distance as their riding bows, this set of tactics is really competent and pleasant.

Arrows like locusts flew into the formation, knocking down the outer two layers of the shogunate, cutting off two whole layers, and everywhere there were dead and wounded shogunate soldiers, and their cries shook everywhere.

The entire right wing was in danger of collapsing, but the already crumbling Choshu Domain's soldiers were demoralized, and they rose up to fight against the shogunate army, and they now saw clearly that it was up to them or the right wing of the shogunate army to hold out longer.

Now it seems that they have a very advantage, the left flank of the Choshu Domain, which was about to collapse, is facing the right flank of the shogunate army, which is now extremely damaged, at this time, the right flank of the shogunate army has divided most of its manpower to block the impact of the cavalry, and the remaining ashigaru attack power has been greatly reduced, and there is a strong enemy on the side behind how to devote himself to the attack.

In this way, the left flank of the Choshu Domain was also stabilized, not to mention the Chinese army and the right wing, and the right wing even pressed the opponent to retreat, and the Choshu Domain now felt that they were the ones who could hold out to the end.

The front of the Choshu domain stabilized, and the shogunate army had some cups.

There were already nearly 1,000 casualties among the feudal soldiers on the right flank, not only did some fall down and suffer casualties, but the ground was covered with casualties, all of which stimulated the nerves of the other feudal soldiers.

These feudal soldiers are not the feudal soldiers of the Tokugawa family, they are here to fight soy sauce, and the Tokugawa shogunate ordered to recruit them, and they had to come to help, but how strong the fighting spirit is is that is a question mark.

If it's a tailwind battle, it's no problem, it's guaranteed to be a dragon and a tiger, but now that they can't fight back after being beaten passively, they finally can't resist and start to retreat.

The casualties were one-fifth, and this casualty was enough, the feudal soldiers retreated from the front, and the farther away from these strangely dressed cavalry, the better, as for who is on top, as long as it is not on top of itself, the dead friends are not dead and poor.

They fled, and the followers of Jiaxin, Etuhun, Bagen and others urged their cavalry to follow up, but they still adopted the old method of not approaching hand-to-hand combat, keeping a distance to drive the feudal soldiers to run around, and using cavalry bows to solve the problem.

At this time, Tokugawa Yoshinobu saw that something was wrong and had sent a reserve of 5,000 men to the right flank to support the already crumbling defensive line, but it was still a step too late, and the front began to crumble.

The 5,000-strong feudal soldiers blocked the rout in front, and the rout in front desperately broke through the obstruction of these feudal soldiers in order to escape from the heavy armor-piercing arrows that kept shooting from behind.

In the end, the defeated feudal soldiers were not as fierce as the rout in front, and finally broke through the defense line by the rout, there was no way, the heavy arrows of the cavalry behind were too ferocious, and the arrows were bloody, and there was no way to survive behind.

The fleeing rout completely broke the formation of the 5,000 feudal soldiers, and carried these feudal soldiers to flee in all directions.

And the cavalry such as Kashin drove them behind, and some of the feudal soldiers ran Taikai and immediately shot them, and these routs were driven and rushed to the military formation of the Kii domain in the middle.

At this time, Tokugawa Lai Xuan, who was ambitious an hour ago, almost lost his nose, in the end he was still a miscellaneous soldier, how did this group of small feudal clan soldiers train them, in the end, they have been peaceful for a long time, and they are all miscellaneous, and there is no samurai spirit at all.

At this time, he forgot that this was exactly the result that the Tokugawa family wanted, and the weaker the feudal clans, the more relieved the Tokugawa family became.

Many small feudal clans also did what they liked, indicating that they would never do anything that was hostile to the shogunate, and they neglected to train the feudal soldiers, and of course their combat effectiveness was low.

In the face of the surging flow of people, Tokugawa Yorinobu gritted his teeth and ordered to kill without mercy.

The soldiers of the Kii Domain immediately faced each other with swords and spears, and there was no ambiguity in the sword, but they could not let the rout rush the formation.

For a while, the routs who collided first fell to death, and those who came back didn't have time to fight with the Kii Domain when they saw it badly, so they all fled by detour.

Like a black-gray river, the defeated soldiers rushed eastward around the stubborn rock of the Kii Domain's military formation.

At this time, all the attacks on the Choshu domain were stopped, and the Choshu domain took the opportunity to form a team, and the more than 4,000 feudal soldiers who were still alive surrounded the remaining 3,000 people of the Kii domain.

The feudal soldiers on the left flank of the shogunate army had been repelled by the fierce Choshu feudal clan in front of them, and they were surrounded by the fleeing feudal soldiers and began to flee.

With nearly a thousand cavalry, Etuhun drove and covered the killing, as if he were driving a herd of cattle and sheep to the east, and the field was full of fleeing feudal soldiers, and behind them were the herdsmen who were waiting for grazing.

And Gashin and Bagen led the rest of the cavalry to surround the military formation of the Sanye Aoi family pattern, which was the biggest gain this time.

The only ones who remained intact were the soldiers of the Tokugawa clan of the Kii Domain and the Owari Domain, which numbered less than 4,000.

They came close together to form a large circle formation, which was also the only formation that could be close to each other when facing the enemy on all sides.

Tadaji Ando's helmet had been lost, and the head of the moon was extremely embarrassed, and he looked at the situation around him,

"Lord Domain, you better rush out with the guards, this battle will definitely be lost."

There are more than 100 people in the Kii Domain

"This feudal clan swears to live and die with the samurai under his command."

Tokugawa Lai Xuan said proudly with a sword in his hand, but it was also majestic, but he did not panic at this time, and lost the face of the Tokugawa Imperial Family.

"The feudal lord doesn't have to worry about me and others, I will wait for my subordinates to desperately block the chasing soldiers, and the feudal lord will leave quickly."

Tadaji Ando burst into tears of gratitude, Nima, although he has no regrets when he meets such a master.

But no matter how Tadaji Ando and others dissuaded, Tokugawa Yoshinobu did not nod and run away, so that the left and right were extremely grateful and dared not fight.

In fact, Tokugawa Lai Xuan's heart was already full of bulls, more than a thousand fierce cavalry outside, they were hundreds of people riding horses to rush into battle, it was almost impossible to rush out, in this case, it was better to stay in the formation, there were always so many people to protect them.
