554. The Red Reserve Cavalry is coming
Suddenly seeing the family crest of the Sanada family, Yi Yun was really taken aback.
Speaking of the Sanada family, readers and friends who are familiar with the history of the Fuso Warring States will definitely not be unfamiliar, the Sanada family is a subordinate family of Takeda Shingen, three generations of father and son, all youkai. The first-generation Sanada Yutaka, as Takeda Shingen's staff officer, was so awesome that he flew up. The second-generation Sanada Masayuki performed the miracle of containing Tokugawa Hidetada's 30,000 troops with 1,000 troops during the Battle of Sekigahara. The third-generation Sanada Yukimura has the reputation of "Japan's strongest soldier".
Why did Asai Nagamasa put the Sanada family crest in his own house? Combined with a suspicious point that came to mind not long ago, it seemed very unwise that a weak and small name like the Asai family dared to attack Nobunaga, and what kind of conspiracy was there?
For Yi Yun, the Sanada family is definitely a headache for the opponent. And the most terrifying thing is not the Sanada family, but the behemoth standing behind the Sanada family, Takeda Shingen!
Yi Yun couldn't help but jump up: "It's not good, the Asai family deliberately let us besiege Kotani City, in fact, they just contained us here, and at the same time, the army of the Takeda family was surrounding...... The reason why Asai Nagamasa's house has six copper coins must be because the messenger sent by the Takeda family to contact the Asai family is a member of the Sanada family. ”
His analysis fell on the ears of Chen Yuanyuan, Zheng Zhifeng and others, and they couldn't understand it at all, because they didn't understand the situation of Fusang and the Warring States Period, and Shiji couldn't understand it, she was an orthodox woman, and she didn't care about anything else except falling in love. But Oda Nobutada understood, and his face changed drastically.
Xinzhong also jumped up on the ground: "Lord Kyushu Shou...... Your guess is most likely correct. We need to inform my mother quickly...... Take precautions early, if you move slowly, you will be attacked by the Takeda family......"
Yi Yun waved his hand: "Then you can go quickly." I won't keep you as a hostage, so it's up to you to inform your mother, and I'll have to hurry up and prepare. ”
"Yes!" Oda Nobutada was wearing a kimono. She was accompanied by Ichihime to "socialize", this kimono is not conducive to running, she had to pull up the hem of the kimono and prick it near the thigh, so that a pair of white and slender legs were exposed, and she didn't care about the beautiful legs being seen, and she ran to Nobunaga's main camp as if flying.
Yi Yun's face sank and said, "Order the whole army." Hurry up and cut down trees and make a horse rejection ...... The more rejections you have, the better...... Well...... I think that if Takeda Shingen wants to come, he should come from the east and pile all the rejection horses on the east side. ”
The so-called horse rejection is a wooden obstacle that can be moved. This thing has been invented since the time of Xia Shang Zhou. It is one of the oldest defense tools in China, and the production method is very simple, which is to tie two thick branches together in a crossed shape to make a shelf. The high-end rejection horse will also have some spikes on it. This thing can effectively defend against the onslaught of enemy cavalry units!
Hearing Yi Yun say that he wanted to make a rejection horse, Chen Yuanyuan, Li Chengyu and other girls felt quite strange, and couldn't help but interject: "Why do you want to be a rejection horse? Could it be that our enemy is a cavalryman?"
"That's right! When it comes to the ability to use cavalry, Takeda Shingen is a first-class master in Fuso. ”
In short, Iyun's army hurried into action, and squad after team of soldiers ran out to cut down trees, busy. The scouts also began to move, spreading out in three directions: east, northeast, and southeast.
After a while, the strength of the Nobuta army also began to move, and like Yiyun, they also began to cut down trees and urgently make a horse rejection fence. Although the Fusang people are stupid, they also know that they need to reject the horse when fighting against the cavalry, and the horse they use is a little different from that of the big Meng country, and the big Meng country map is simple and convenient, so the horse is rejected with crossed wood. The Fuso people are different, and the barrier they make is more like a huge shield, which can not only be used to keep away horses, but also to block arrows. ...,
In short, both Nobunaga and Iyun acted urgently to fight the cavalry.
As soon as the production of the rejection horse was started here, the scout over there reported back: "Report, a cavalry team with extremely fast speed has entered the reconnaissance range of the scout, five miles to the east...... The total number is tens of thousands...... Under the banner of 'Wind Forest Volcano'......"
"I'm rubbing, it's really here!" Yi Yun Khan: "Fortunately, the information brought by the round girl was timely, and we were almost about to be attacked." Ordered the whole army to put up their horses before the enemy cavalry came to ......"
It is very difficult to fight against cavalry on flat ground, although Yiyun has a powerful hot weapon force, but in the face of extremely fast cavalry, the cannon is almost useless, although the rifle is useful, but with a thousand rifles, you want to suppress the opponent's 10,000 cavalry, this is absolutely unrealistic, if you don't reject the horse, you will be slaughtered.
But it is not easy to make a horse that is enough to resist 10,000 cavalry in a short time. The enemy army came at full speed, and the distance of five miles passed in a flash, and the time was still very short.
Iyun saw Oda Nobutada running out of Nobunaga's main camp again, but this time she didn't run to find Iyun, but ran to the Ogawa River and got into the tortoise formation led by Tokugawa Ieyasu, and soon, the five thousand tortoises led by Tokugawa Ieyasu ran from the Ogawa River to the land and stood in a neat queue.
Obviously, Nobunaga wanted the Turtle Army to help him buy time so that he could be fully prepared. Yi Yun couldn't help but sigh: Poor old turtle, was actually used as cannon fodder by Nobunaga, it's just that, anyway, it's not me as cannon fodder, it doesn't matter.
After a while, the rejection horses of the Yiyun army have been tied a lot, because this thing is two branches tied together to make a cross, so it is still very fast, after a while, there are many rejection horses on the east side, although it is still slightly insufficient to defend against the impact of 10,000 cavalry, but relying on the powerful riflemen, there is also a fight. Yi Yun's heart gradually calmed down, and he focused more attention on observing the overall situation of the battlefield.
At this time, the earth had begun to tremble, and on the eastern horizon, a red cloud began to appear, a large number of cavalry, Yi Yun raised his eyes, and sure enough, these cavalry were not riding horses, but camels! In this strange desert world, horses are rare, but camels are more common.
The camels of the Takeda Shingen's family, produced in Shinano Komaba, have a fun feature here, that is, they are all red, and the samurai of the Takeda family also like to wear red armor, and the red camels are paired with the samurai in red costumes, and the whole cavalry team is bright red. This is the Takeda family's world-famous "Red Reserve Cavalry".
This was the first time Iyun had seen tens of thousands of camels running together, and the momentum was really extraordinary, and in the rumbling hooves, the earth was also trembling slightly, the sand on the ground seemed to be dancing with this tremor, the woods were shaking together, and the towering small valley city next to it seemed to be shaking and collapsing at any time.
The red cloud rolled to the front not far away, and did not mean to stop, still rushing forward, obviously, the people of the Takeda family also knew that their cavalry was coming, and what they wanted was to take down the enemy in one go, if they stopped the whole queue, or chatted with Oda Nobunaga in front of the battle, they might miss the battle.
Therefore, the Chibei cavalry had no intention of stopping at all, and rushed straight over.
The Tokugawa Ieyasu army, which Nobunaga had used as cannon fodder, immediately met them! Five thousand tortoises stood in many small phalanxes, each numbering from a few hundred to a thousand, and spread out over the vast plain, blocking the way of the Red Reserve cavalry.
Yi Yun's eyes quickly widened, wanting to learn how the cavalry of this world fought and how the infantry countered the cavalry, which would be a rare experience. ...,
I saw that the Chibei cavalry did not rush up in a nest, but a small group of cavalry on the left flank, about a thousand people, slapped the camel's butt a few times, and accelerated out of the cavalry formation.
"The left vanguard of the Takeda Army, Koyamada is also ......" The samurai led by the cavalry roared and rushed straight at Tokugawa Ieyasu's tortoise army.
Yi Yun swept his eyes, this guy's profession is actually a third-order "gun attendant", it doesn't seem to be a powerful person, it is estimated that it is a small stone used by the Takeda Army to throw stones and ask for directions.
In the turtle formation on Tokugawa Ieyasu's side, a low-level samurai also rushed out, and a large group of tortoises walked up to meet him: "The Samurai of the Three Rivers is coming back to the left of the mountain!"
I'm rubbing, that's the name! Yi Yun is drenched in sweat, so embarrassed. He took a closer look, this guy was actually a third-order "spearman", and it seemed that this first formation was mainly a temptation.
The two third-order warriors waved their spears and crackled in front of the formation, and the soldiers behind the two quickly collided together, and the turtles suddenly suffered a big loss, and the cavalry was stronger than the infantry after all. Not to mention that the cavalry is condescending.
A corpse fell to the ground in an instant, at least two hundred. Among them, turtles are the majority, and the cavalry of the Takeda family dies less.
Yi Yun frowned slightly, sure enough, it was easy for cavalry to cut infantry...... The enemy's temptation has been successful, and new troops are about to be put in......
Yi Yun guessed correctly, only to see another cavalry in the middle of the Chibei cavalry speeding out. This time, it was no longer a third-order miscellaneous fish, and a fourth-order "bushido" with a golden light led the cavalry to rush out.
As soon as the general rushed out, the Tokugawa family's military formation shook slightly, and someone shouted, "It's one of the four ministers of Takeda, the immortal Oni Mino, and the Baba Nobubo...... Be careful...... Beware of this guy. ”
"Baba Nobubo?" Iyun had heard of this name, and in the "Nobunaga's Ambition" series of games, Baba Nobubo's force value hovered around 90 points, which belonged to quite a powerful general.
The Tokugawa army did not dare to slack off, and a general also came out of the turtle formation, it turned out to be Kamihara Yasumasa, and the golden light lit up, and Kamihara Yasumasa also waved his spear and greeted the horse farm Shinbo...... (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
