Chapter 144: The Battle of the Barrel Narrows (4)
Yang Guang saw that many of the musketeers who had loaded their ammunition in the third row all turned to look in Ye Zongman's direction, so he shouted, "Turn them all back for me!" Your duty is to go forward, forward, and forward! Naturally, there are other people on the flanks to look after you! ”
"Leave me alone, just a few clowns!" Ye Zongman laughed, took off the cloak wrapped around his body, and revealed his whole body armor that shone in the firelight, which was a gift from Yang Guang to him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Ye Zongman's martial arts were originally above these Imagawa family flags, and he had armor to protect himself from the other party's attack at all, and waved two katanas to fight fast and slow, specifically attacking the enemy's arms, throats and other weak points, and quickly killed all these enemies.
These samurai were the backbone of the Japanese daimyo's military force, and they were far superior to ordinary Ashigaru soldiers in terms of combat skills and will, and although they were not Ye Zongman's opponents, they were not afraid of death one by one, and fought until the last man.
The three musket teams in Yang Guang's hands add up to only 95 people, and the remaining 5 are the best marksmanship carefully selected by him, Huang Laoqi with a dragon breath cannon is among them, plus Suzuki Shigehide, a Japanese junior brother, to form a quasi-sniper unit.
When Ye Zongman engaged the enemy, Yang Guang sent two people to support the former with firearms, and asked Huang Laoqi and Suzuki Shigexiu to continue to search for targets, specifically picking those infantry captains, Qiben samurai and the like.
Without the organization of these people, the soldiers of the Imagawa family were always just scattered sand, and Yang Guang continued to command the fire team to find a place with a large number of people to open fire, and cooperated with the soldiers of the Oda family to fight, and soon killed the enemy in the camp.
After completely clearing out the soldiers of the Imagawa family, Oda Nobunaga entered the captured front camp under the strict protection of his personal guards. Seeing that his subordinates and those soldiers were actually carrying the heads of the enemy army in their hands one by one, Oda Nobunaga was so angry that he scolded: "Don't have the head, throw it away, I just want to win!" ”
Under Oda Nobunaga's scolding and strict orders, the samurai of the Oda family lost the heads in their hands that could be recorded as battle exploits, and followed the retreating Imagawa soldiers and chased after them.
Although Oda Nobunaga was in the rear, there had always been ninjas to relay the battle situation ahead for him, and now he came to the front camp of the Imagawa army, looking at the hundreds of corpses killed by Yang Guang's fire gun troops on the ground, and his heart was full of enthusiasm for this new weapon from the Ming Kingdom.
In order to ensure that Yang Guang's fire gun troops could fight safely and not to repeat the previous sneak attack by the Imagawa family banner samurai, Oda Nobunaga actually stood side by side with Yang Guang directly, so that his personal guards could cover Yang Guang's weak flanks.
At this time, Imagawa Yoshimoto had already mobilized his forces and began to counterattack, and the two sides fell into a bitter battle. At this critical moment, Yang Guang commanded the firecrackers to start round after round of salvos.
Like a torrential rain, lead bullets roared, tearing apart the flesh and blood of the Imagawa soldiers, taking their lives. The three rows of musketeers took turns to reload and fire, and there was almost no gap in between, so that the soldiers of the Imagawa family could not rush to the 40 meters in front.
The generals of the Imagawa family organized two counter-attacks, but unfortunately, the Japanese bows and arrows were generally weak and weak, with little lethality, and the range was even shorter, and there was no way to counter Yang Guang's Wufeng firearms. These gathered shooters were directly destroyed by Yang Guang's firecrackers who fired several volleys out of their range, and the generals of the Imagawa family who organized them were also sniped by Suzuki Shigehide by seizing the opportunity.
Speaking of which, this Suzuki Shigehide is really not boasting, he uses the foreign trade type of Wufeng gun, and the hit rate is actually no worse than the complete version of the Wufeng gun shooter, and this person is very good at seizing opportunities, and has a ninjutsu, often boldly infiltrates the area controlled by the Imagawa army, and returns safely after solving the target with one shot.
Three rows of five-peak firearms took turns to shoot, as Yang Guang said before the war, the soldiers of the Imagawa family were "lined up to shoot", with such long-range support in hand, it naturally boosted the morale of the Oda family's army, and soon broke through the defense line arranged by the Imagawa army, and came to the Chinese army camp of Imagawa Yoshimoto.
The further forward they go, the greater the resistance they will encounter, and the firearms troops under Yang Guang have fired an average of more than 20 shots since the beginning of the war, and most of the ammunition they carry has been fired, at most they will support one or two more high-intensity battles.
Yang Guang kept his composure, directing the night owl summoned by the "summoning servant" above his head to fly over the camp, hoping to find the location of Imagawa Yoshimoto, but the camp was chaotic, and there were many tents and other things, although the night owl could see in the dark, but he did not have the ability to see through obstacles, so he could only wait for Imagawa Yoshimoto to come out of hiding by himself.
Suddenly, Yang Guang found that a cavalry unit was actually coming around his flank, and he immediately ordered the Wufeng B team, which was about to step forward to aim and fire, to turn, and at the same time quickly reminded the others of the Oda family around him: "Beware of the cavalry raid of the Imagawa family!" ”
This sentence made many of the Oda samurai feel strange, but after more than ten seconds, they understood the meaning, and the ground under their feet suddenly shook, and a group of cavalrymen wearing red armor and even the war horses under their crotch appeared in front of them.
"That person is Naokatsu Ii!" One of Oda Nobunaga's personal guards recognized the leader of the red cavalry unit and shouted his name out loud.
Yang Guang didn't know who this guy was, and he didn't plan to know who he was, but when he saw this Jing Yi Naokuma leading the cavalry towards him, he greeted him and shouted: "Old Seven, kill him for me!" ”
Huang Laoqi immediately picked up the dragon's breath cannon and began to aim at this target that was running faster and faster. "Boom!" The muzzle of the dragon's breath cannon erupted more than a foot of flame, and the specially made lead bullet swirled and flew out of the muzzle, piercing the air and heading towards the enemy called Naokatsu Ii with a low whistling sound.
Perhaps the characteristics of the Dragon's Breath Cannon were too obvious when they fired, and the general named Naokatsu Ii vaguely saw a fire coming from the opposite side, as if someone was shooting at him, although the two sides were separated by more than 100 meters, he still instinctively lowered his body towards the horse.
At the moment after Naokumi made this move, the flaming lead bullet on the surface swept over his head, directly knocking off the ornament on Naokumi Ii's helmet, scaring him into a cold sweat.
"Get on horseback! Hasten! Hasten! Naokakatsu Ii leaned his body on the horse's back as much as he could, and gave a loud command.
