"Iron Cannon forward!"

Seeing that his cavalry was being pursued and killed, Matsuura Shigenobu immediately made a decision and ordered the firecrackers to come forward to respond.

The Matsuura family was the first of the three powerful feudal clans to be armed with muskets throughout Japan's Sengoku period.

In the beginning, there were only two or three hundred iron artillery troops, but now it has grown to as many as eight hundred.

Even, it will be Nobunaga's three-stage strike.

"Whine~"

Yuan Shizhong blew the trumpet to stop the pursuit, and the dragoons retreated to the flank of the battlefield, riding very skillfully on horseback to reload.

Matsuura Shigenobu led his own flag book and sat in the Chinese army. Let their own pikemen and musketeers serve as the front army to slowly press forward, and let the Shimazu family's team line up on the two wings.

Suddenly, the flag waved, and the Matsuura family's position launched six small Furlong cannons. This thing is an old thing, and it was bought from the Portuguese decades ago. In peacetime, it is generally installed on sea vessels, because the caliber is relatively small, and it can also be dismantled for land combat.

Li Dingguo said with a smile: "Drag them all out and let the Japanese see what artillery is."

Twenty-five artillery pieces, slowly unveiled.

"There are so many large barrels (artillery)?"

Including Matsuura Shigenobu, the nobles of the two feudal clans of Hirado and Satsuma changed drastically.

Especially the army of the Satsuma Domain, they didn't want to save the governor, and they were ready to slip away at any time. Seeing that the Datong Army launched twenty-five artillery pieces,

In an instant, the morale of the army fluctuated, and there were already signs of fleeing without a fight.

Just as the Datong artillery was reloading the shells, the dragoons finished changing their ammunition and began to circle the flanks and rear of the enemy troops.

The dragoon's move around the rear made Matsuura Shigenobu not dare to retreat, and he could collapse as soon as he withdrew, and then he was chased and killed by the dragoon.

So far, I can only fight hard.

Shimazu Tsunahisa reminded: "You can't wait for the big cylinder of the Tang soldiers to be launched, and the whole army will be killed quickly!" ”

Matsuura Shigenobu was still hesitating, although he had a very strong level of internal affairs, he had only participated in the pacification of the Shimabara Rebellion, and his actual command experience was not very rich.

Listening to Shimazu Tsunadahisa's suggestion, Shigenobu Matsuura also reacted. The morale of the allied army was unstable, and if it was bombarded by twenty-five artillery pieces, the battle could not be fought again, and the whole army had to rush forward and kill in close combat.

"All march!"

Due to the large number of civilians, the 20,000 coalition troops advanced very slowly, and the formation was uneven.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

After only a dozen paces, the first round of artillery bombardment of the Datong army began, and all of them were fired at the army of the Matsuura family - the military appearance was more neat, and at a glance it was the main force of the coalition army.

Iron bullets flew out with a whirl, turning into calf terminators.

Iron bullets bounced off the ground, breaking calves along the way, plowing flesh alleys among the coalition forces.

"Flag warrior, step forward and press the formation!"

After the first round of shelling, the former army units of the Matsuura family were a little overwhelmed. Matsuura Shigenobu unleashed the Hachimoto samurai, who raised their swords and slashed the scattered routs before charging with the front army.

The addition of the flag warriors greatly boosted the morale of the former army, and they continued to rush up against artillery fire.

Yuan Shizhong led the dragoons, bypassing the enemy formation with archers and firecrackers, and did not choose to shoot, but charged towards the enemy's Minfu troops.

The charge of a cadre of cavalry, the sound of rolling horses' hooves, how dare the Japanese peasants face it?

"Run!"

The minks threw away their weapons, turned around and fled en masse, and some even panicked and fled towards Matsuura Shigenobu's Banner troops.

Matsuura Shigenobu hurriedly commanded: "Pikemen, iron gunners, archers, block the Tang people's mounted iron cannons!" ”

The order was given smoothly, but the corresponding troops looked a little chaotic. Because after Yuan Shizhong broke out a group of people, he continued to go around the bend backwards, completely disrupting the enemy's blocking troops.

Matsuura Shigenobu could only command his own soldiers, form a formation to block the attack, and at the same time put the more than 200 cavalry on top.

"Bang bang bang!"

The dragoons fired a volley at close range, and the Japanese cavalry of the Matsuura family fell directly by more than fifty horsemen. These little horsemen, frightened to the point of exhaustion, completely forgot about their mission, and reined in their horses and ran as far as they could.

Yuan Shizhong did not chase either, and after opening the distance, he reloaded the ammunition.

After such a toss, Matsuura Shigenobu's banner troops have completely disconnected from the charging front army.

The former army units were also in a difficult situation, and they were led by the samurai of Bannermoto,

Finally cheered up and withstood the second salvo of Datong artillery,

But it also entered the range of the Datong firecrackers.

The troops that rushed quickly, the distance was about 35 paces; Troops that rush slowly,

It's still 50 paces away.

Li Dingguo didn't bother to wait any longer, and ordered: "Order all battalions, don't wait twenty steps before firing a salvo!" ”

The order was passed to the junior officers, and the nearest Japanese soldiers had rushed to 30

step within.

"Bang bang bang!"

Three shots were fired in a row, gunfire erupted, and gunsmoke filled the air.

More than a dozen samurai rushed forward, and most of them fell instantly, and the pikemen behind them also suffered heavy casualties.

The elite of the Matsuura family was so defeated without suspense. It was not easy to withstand two rounds of shelling, and they were greeted by three consecutive shots of muskets, where did they withstand such dense firepower? It's Japan's Sengoku period,

The feudal clans fought so fiercely, and there was never such a terrible local firepower.

"The pikemen are close, the musketeers are on their bayonets, and the grenadiers are immediately charged!"

As far as the two feudal coalition forces could see, the Datong army was shrouded in gunsmoke. Suddenly, a group of burly soldiers rushed out of the smoke, holding strange balls in their hands.

Whichever enemy unit has not yet been routed, and whichever enemy army is the most crowded, the grenadiers rush wherever they go, followed by a group of pikemen,

Behind them were the musketeers who charged with bayonets.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

10,000 enemies were thrown into the enemy line, and wherever the explosion reached, the Japanese soldiers were completely blown up.

As soon as the grenadier throws his bomb, he draws his sword and kills him. They are not just firefighters, on the contrary, they all have long arms, are burly, and wear heavy armor, which can be transformed into a trap at any time.

Zhou Ding was the grenadier commander of this division, and this person was 1 meter tall

86。

He rushed to the front of the enemy with his sword and encountered one of the surviving Hachimoto samurai.

This samurai was as tall as 1.45 meters, and at this time in Japan, it was already majestic.

Moreover, this samurai actually brought three swords to the battlefield, and he was not tired of too many weapons.

At this moment, the Qiben warrior was holding two swords, one long and one short, shouting and rushing up to win Zhou Ding.

Zhou Ding split the knife cut by the other party, and didn't care about the remaining knife. The winner was quickly decided, and the whole body of the flag warrior lost his balance because the force of the weapon collision was too great, and then the oblique knife was not lethal at all.

Even if it is lethal, it will be perfectly defended by heavy armor.

And Zhou Ding, the second knife has been chopped down, a tall man of more than one meter and eight, and a little man of more than one meter and four meters, he grabbed the knife with all his strength and slashed down.

The samurai hurriedly resisted with a horizontal sword, but the speed was a little slower, and he was snatched by a knife in the neck. Not only was the major artery in the neck severed, but the clavicle below was severed, and he fell down with blood spraying on the spot.

In the entire battlefield, there are not many enemy troops that have not yet collapsed, and with the rush of the Datong army, it melts like the scorching sun and snow.

Shiro Miyazaki, Ghost Head Forty-eight, these wild samurai, were already stunned by the scene in front of them.

Japan also had artillery and muskets, but only when the shogunate ordered the gathering of troops, a large number of firearms were gathered. Usually scattered in various domains, such as the Matsuura family, there are 800 firearms, which can be regarded as a very strong force.

And the Datong Army, except for the melee pikemen, are all firearms troops.

At the beginning of the battle between the two armies, the Japanese army was greeted by firearms in turn, and before they could get close to each other, they had already collapsed on a large scale.

Tang Bing is really invincible!

Thinking that the master they had taken refuge in was so powerful, the wild warriors became even more excited.

"Onboard! His Majesty the Emperor onboard! Shogun-sama onboard! ”

The ghost head forty-eight shouted loudly, took the lead in drawing his sword and rushed out, following the Datong army to chase and kill the enemy.

Li Dingguo pointed to the side and forward, and said to the three hundred reserves beside him: "There is still an enemy army there that has not been defeated, all of them rush forward!" “

But it was the troops of the Satsuma Domain's Izumi Castle, and these guys didn't want to fight, so they kept charging and paddling. Seeing Li Dingguo's reserve team killing, the troops of Izumi City knelt down collectively and shouted in Chinese under the leadership of the city lord: "Willing to surrender, willing to surrender!" “

Shimazu Tsunahisa stupidly watched the scene of the whole army fleeing, he disobeyed the shogunate's order, did not go home to urge his father to apologize, but ran to Matsuura's house halfway to move the rescuers. It's okay to win, but if you lose, you will definitely die, and even if you can escape today, you will be given death by the shogunate afterwards.

Suddenly, Shimazu Tsunashi sighed and knelt on the spot: "The strength is as weak as the Satsuma Domain, you shouldn't provoke a strong enemy." Tang Bing is so fierce, who in the martial arts can resist it? ”

This thing slowly pulled out the ribs, and I didn't know how to get a towel.

Actually playing seppuku on the battlefield.

Matsuura Shigenobu's flag had not yet collapsed, and many guards protected him and persuaded one after another: "Governor, hurry up, it's too late." “

Matsuura Shigenobu turned around and looked, there were dragoons who had already completed the circle. He shook his head: "I can't escape." Then he called Matsuura Nobutada to his side, "My son is young, you should do your best to assist." Hirado Honfan,

1,500 stone will be given to you, and you will be the head of the Matsuura branch from now on.

"My lord, retreat quickly, there is still a glimmer of life!" Nobusada Matsuura said with tears in his eyes.

Matsuura Shigenobu said, "Even if you can escape today, you can't escape the shogunate's rebuke." The shogunate ordered me to apologize for my seppuku, so let's do it today. I can die, and the Matsuura family will continue. Remember, the Tang people will give them as much compensation as they want, and they will pay it slowly in ten or twenty years. While you assist my son, you must befriend Tang Guo. Today's Datong Tang State is no longer the Ming Dynasty it used to be, and their army is invincible. Jiro Tagawa, don't let him go, let him be a retainer of the Matsuura family. His brother is the concubine of the Tang Kingdom. As long as he is there, he can keep the Matsuura family alive. ”

Nobusada Matsuura finally burst into tears.

These are a pair of cousins with an extremely deep relationship.

Matsuura Shigenobu again: "If my son is unbearable, let Tagawa Jiro change his surname to Matsuura, and let him be the governor of the Matsuura family." ”

"Yes," Nobutasha Matsuura wiped tears from his eyes.

It is common in Japan for outsiders to inherit the family business, usually as an adopted son or son-in-law.

In the eyes of the Japanese, the bloodline does not matter, what is really valuable is the family name, which is the continuation of the legal system of a family.

Zheng Chenggong's younger brother has passed to the Tagawa family and married Matsuura Shigenobu's sister. Then you can re-enter the Matsuura family and become the governor of the Matsuura clan.

The main reason is that Matsuura Shigenobu's son is too young.

Matsuura Shigenobu: "Put down your weapons, and I will personally negotiate with the generals of the Tang Kingdom." As long as I can keep the elite of the Matsuura family, I will agree to their request, and then commit suicide here. ”
