Pillars of the Wu family

Chapter 255 The Slaughter of the Cavalry

() It was mid-autumn when everything was bleak, and the not so majestic Chunri Mountain was also dyed red by a red leaf tree. On this crisp autumn day, the long-tailed tiger girl in military uniform was arguing fiercely with a group of genealogy retainers. The reason is still Out of her attire, her long hair was tied up high in an obi bowl, and she was wearing the Sawara Wei armor that was handed down to her by Nagao.

Changwei Jingxin persuaded earnestly: "His Royal Highness! Absolutely not!"

"How can Her Royal Highness come to the battlefield in person, this is absolutely impossible!"

"Your Highness, how can..." Saito Chaoxin was stared at by the girl, and he said in a dull tone: "Actually, I don't think I can't go."

Nagao Jingxin glared at each other: "What did Shimono Shou say? Now is not the time to add trouble, how can Her Royal Highness come out? This is simply nonsense!"

"Does Uncle think I'm making trouble?" Changwei Hu Ji glanced at Changwei Jingxin displeasedly, her willow brows stood on end, her almond eyes were round and she said coldly: "I am the daughter of the Changwei family, the governor of the Changwei family , Lord of Echigo! In the future, she will be Ashikaga Kamisaburo’s main wife, and my Heira’s daughter will become Genji’s woman, please keep this in mind at all times.”

Changwei Huji didn't realize how indifferent her tone was when she spoke, and Changwei Jingxin was startled. He watched in disbelief that the silly little niece in the past had quietly grown into a woman who dared to scold her angrily. Even though she is only 12 years old this year, even if she is not as tall as his elder brother, that familiar feeling came to his mind again.

"The Palace of Martial Arts once said that the lord is the Dragon of Echigo and the God of the North Army, so is Your Highness going to be the Dragon Girl of Echigo?" Nagao Jingxin said disappointedly: "That's all! It's up to the Princess to make the decision."

The generation members of the Nagao family tree exclaimed: "Bungzen guarding the palace? How could you..."

"Since everyone has no objections, let's go out! Buzenshou, Echizenshou and everyone are here to guard!" Nagao Tiger Hime got up and left, leaving behind a group of disappointed Pudai retainers.

Saito Chaoxin patted his clothes and stood up calmly. Seeing the distraught look of the Pudai retainers, he pursed his lips and said in a weird tone, "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of that?" Okuma Asohide and Jo Masako? Are you still worried that the reinforcements from the Jinbo family will not be able to defeat them? Yamamoto Sado Shouden didn’t say anything, why should I be worried? Your Royal Highness is not only the governor of my Nagao family, but also the wife of Wuweidian. It should be Yamamoto Sado Shouden who is worried about the safety of Her Highness the Princess!"

"Hehe..." Tokiyuki Yamamoto seemed to have noticed that everyone was looking at him, and then said with a smile: "Actually, there is no problem. If Her Royal Highness wears Jinggong's great armor to go out, there may be unexpected effects."

"Is that so?" Nagao Jingxin pondered for a moment, and said to Saito Chaoxin worriedly: "Shimono Mamoru led his team and went out with the princess! I don't want to capture Daikuma Chaoxiu alive, as long as I can repel Koshi It’s good to be in the rebels!”

"Got it, got it." Saito Asanobu stood up and walked out slowly, shrugged his shoulders and said with an indifferent expression: "Isn't it just a big bear Chaoxiu? Leave it to me."

Nagao Tohime came to the castle tower wearing her father's large armor. His elder brother seemed to have just fallen asleep, and the room was lit with soothing sandalwood. Nagata Tokumoto was sitting in the room quietly meditating. They are all followers of Linji sect, and Changwei Jinghu sleeps peacefully amidst the sound of reciting softly.

The girl standing outside the door looked at the tranquility of the room, and Qu Naose Moruma came over to her and said, "Your Highness, do you want to go in and take a look?"

"No need, I'm leaving now." The girl quietly turned her face to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes and left quietly. At this moment, Changwei Jinghu suddenly opened his eyes, staring brightly at the back of the gradually leaving outside, and slowly close.

……

Takikawa Tokimashi held the reins in one hand, and held the red gun upside down in the other. He slammed his feet against the soft belly of the mount suddenly, and the horse accelerated and galloped under the pain. There was a sound of hunting in the middle, and a thousand red cavalry rode like a raging tide, while on the other side, two hundred long-tailed cavalrymen with the Jiuyao Bama seal on their backs also rushed down the mountain. At the intersection of the two cavalry was the eight hundred The name is Lu Mingjun.

"Oops!" Odagiri Sun Qirou's complexion changed, and he hurriedly ordered the Ashgaru team to form a team. 150 cavalry warriors were divided into left and right to protect the left and right wings. The arrows were blown far away by the mountain wind in the Hokuriku wilderness, but this did not cause any trouble for Kira's army.

"Ding ding ding..." It was still the sound of arrows colliding with iron armor. If you look closely, you will find that the equipment they wear is completely different from the original equipment. It is the current equipment after carburizing the surface of a thin iron plate formed at one time. .

This is a new technique strongly demanded by Hans. No matter how brave the samurai is, it is absolutely impossible without a suit of armor with excellent defense. This new type of barrel-shaped Nanman carcass is the only one that became popular in the world more than ten or twenty years later.

"Why can't I hurt them! Continue to shoot! Shoot the horse!" Odagiri Sun Qilang was in a hurry, and cursed secretly: "Where did this cavalry come out? They wear the flag of the shogun's family and are not afraid of bows and arrows. Could it be?" Won't the demon work?"

At this time, the dense charging formation suddenly dispersed after a whistle, and a thousand cavalry scattered into dozens of fragmented groups, bypassing the front of Lu Ming's army, moving to the left and right respectively, and some of the cavalry were able to let go of the reins. Shooting arrows with a bow, this is the archery unique to the legendary Yabusame warriors. In the past, only at the ceremonies of gods and Buddhas could you see some warriors wearing traditional costumes performing Yabusame and dog chasing things in front of you.

The Kamakura samurai who were only preserved in legends and memories reappeared in front of them again. They wore gorgeous pockets, blood-colored armor, and masks of ghosts and gods. They neither roared nor scolded. They were as quiet as a forest , but it gives people the burning feeling of the heat wave.

The cold arrows flying from nowhere took away the lives of the warriors, while the cavalry on the opposite side seemed to have shot an inconspicuous prey, still galloping around in circles, no one roared and charged. They came here to do personal combat, and no one tried to cut off the head of the deceased. It seemed that all this was a routine training. They were a group of cold targets. They only needed to shoot the arrows in the empty pot to know how they were doing.

This ruthless and ferocious attack tactic made Ashing's army feel chilled. Not only the warriors were afraid, but even their mounts retreated quietly.

"Don't stand still, just charge me! You can't let them go on like this." Odagiri Sun Qilang really couldn't understand who this person was, but he couldn't just retreat like this. Now there is only one way to turn around and run away, and how can two legs It is impossible to run faster than on four legs.

"Fight it!" In the desperate situation, the warriors of Lu Mingjia's family also aroused fierceness. Several warriors roared and rode their horses to charge, and then more than 100 cavalry rushed towards the nearest red cavalry in several directions. Their mounts It is far inferior to Kira's army, not to mention that it can't cut this armor even if it catches up.

The red-backed cavalry who had been following soy sauce in circles were excited at this moment. They didn't know how to shoot horse archery. The knife is the best way to reap the enemy's troops. If Yoshishiki Kira hadn't ordered them not to be damaged in battle, they would have rushed over screaming.

At this time, a group of reckless Ashina soldiers rushed over spontaneously, so don't blame them. Five hundred Chibei turned their horses at the same time, brandished their long spears and charged towards them. This time, there was one more warrior holding a vermilion spear That is the blood gun Kuro Nagasaka Nobumasa. After more than a year of hard training, this gentleman finally became a qualified cavalryman.

Two samurai holding blood guns turned into blood Shura in hell. The Ashina samurai who fought against Takikawa Tokimashi was named Hayakawa Saburo. He was a young samurai known as the Aizu warrior, but he was still screaming in shock in the face of the terrifying momentum. Forgot all, mustered up the little courage left, and waved the spear in his hand to meet him.

"Mother! Please bless me!"

At the moment when the two were about to collide, Saburo Hayakawa only noticed a flash of blood in front of his eyes, as if a surging sea of ​​blood was coming, the familiar smell of blood aroused an ominous premonition, and then his neck hurt and his whole body shuddered He flew up lightly, and then saw the terrified eyes of his companions gradually losing consciousness.

The blood-colored spear was splattered with blood, and he beheaded the unknown warrior blocking the way. Takigawa Tokimashi kept urging his horse forward. There is no need for a warrior of this level to call out his name. I am not interested in harvesting heads. In the samurai culture of the Kira family, harvesting heads is something only low-level samurai and ashigaru do. People dare to lie about their leaders, and no one dares to embezzle their achievements.

At the same time, Nagasaka Nobumasa, Shima Tokikatsu and others also got off to a good start. The horse-riding warriors of the Ashina family who met face to face were beheaded without even responding, and the rest began to flee in all directions. He could still dodge this fatal attack with his flexible dodge, but it was too late after all.

The 150 cavalry who attacked at the same time rushed towards him like wolves and tigers. These [-] cavalry were not enough at all. Seeing Takikawa Tokimashi, Shima Tokatsu and others fighting left and right, these samurai who had accumulated anger for a year One after another with guns and slamming, it is a game of quick hands and slow hands. If you come late, you can only watch your friends show off their achievements.

"Don't run away! No one is allowed to run away!" Odagiri Sun Qirou shouted eagerly, trying to encourage the courage that was left. The two hundred cavalrymen of Echigo didn't know how to go around in circles, so they directly crashed into the infantry formation from the flanks and spread out. An asymmetric **.

In the distance, a samurai with a strange shape has a terrifying height, wearing a black cross robe with a white background, holding a fan-shaped knight shield with a white cross on a black background, holding a black lance, and wearing a strange scarf on his head. The big winged helmet, and the mount under him is a Trequena warhorse also wearing a mail smock, and it is more than a head taller than their Mutsu horses, like a static statue, examining every move on the battlefield move.

I don't know if he was in a daze or something, Odagiri Sun Qirou shouted as if he had grasped a life-saving straw: "That person is the commander! Kill him and we will be saved!" (To be continued.)
