A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

The cold wind in early February blew against Xiao Pingtai's face like scissors, but his heart was even colder.

In the history, the Shinshu elite soldiers who launched a fierce attack on the tightly-positioned Oritoku Allied Forces of 39,000 people with only 10,000 soldiers on the Nagashino battlefield were actually this kind of thing? Is it because my control is too poor or because I was born in the wrong era? The fighting power of Lian Chuanzhong is really capable of tricking someone to death. (On the Nagashino battlefield, it is true that the Takeda clan's Shinano soldiers accounted for the vast majority, not the Takeda clan's Kai soldiers as the main force)

Xiao Pingtai, who had been tricked, was trapped among the deserters, miserable and frightened, hugging the horse's neck tightly. If I hadn't been prepared for defeat in my heart, I might have shed tears. Sure enough, the army was in chaos and there was no way to recover, so they had to look back at the two wings of the reserve team of the chief planner in the mountain.

Seeing these two small battle groups of only more than 200 people, they were extremely flexible. Xiao Pingtai saw that they were fundamentally different from the Lianchuan people.

The chief planner in the mountain saw that more than 500 people under Xiao Pingtai's command were "routed" as planned. They abandoned their helmets and armor and cried for their fathers and mothers. Xiao Pingtai himself also had his helmet crooked and his horse mark hanging backwards. It felt like the drama was over. enough.

So with a wave of the sword, his uncles and brothers immediately understood. Suddenly, they all let out a loud shout, exerted all their strength, gathered together and charged forward with a spear, regardless of life or death.

The superiority of the elite troops of Yamauchi's Chief of Staff was immediately apparent. They were tall and powerful (the front rows were all over 1.5 meters tall), well-equipped weapons (guaranteed to be made by famous craftsmen of Minoden and Sagamiden), and high morale (given to Isn’t it expensive to work for one’s own family?) Although the A army on the opposite side is also a standing ashigaru trained by Takeda Harunobu, an ashigaru is an ashigaru after all. Facing a super luxurious elite lineup with a samurai ratio of more than 30%, they were stunned by the sudden and fierce spear attack. .

Oyamada Zaemon and Omiyayama Tango Mamoru quickly opened the distance between the two armies, what a guy! This thing, Chief Yamauchi made the first spear attack. Not one samurai from the Yamauchi army was killed, so he pounced on two ashigaru, but the Takeda army's ashigaru fell down in large pieces. Seeing this, Oyamada Zaemon and Omiyayama Tango Mamoru were frightened. They hurriedly shouted and greeted the rear team to come up. There were more people and fewer people bullied them to make up for the huge gap in combat power between Ashigaru and samurai.

Looking at the headquarters of the chief planner in the mountain, only a few Ashigaru soldiers were killed, but they actually scared nearly a thousand armored soldiers and retreated for dozens of meters.

Xiaopingta sighed, "If I had an all-samurai army of 500 people, and just added a few hundred iron cannon ashigaru, wouldn't it be possible to run amok in Japan?" The fighting power of the samurai is really powerful, and it can be seen at first sight. They are very different from the other fish.

Before I could finish thinking about it, a dramatic scene appeared on the battlefield again. Chief Yamauchi had just won a clean victory, but he turned around and ran away with his team. It was very different from the heroic counterattack just now, as if many people had died before they died. It's the same as looking back. The sudden explosion seemed to have exhausted their courage. Now that they were able to escape, everyone almost chose to escape without hesitation.

Even Koheita couldn't understand whether this was due to Yamauchi's top-notch acting or his assessment of the situation. He only knew that after two consecutive dramatic developments, Army A on the opposite side stopped advancing and began to clean up the battlefield and celebrate their victory.

After Xiaopingtai ran out of the small area (about 3,000 meters), he saw that most of the soldiers from Lianchuanzhong had stopped and began to form a team under the organization of Feng Gongren. Most of the fellow villagers in each village were laughing and joking, not looking like they had just fought a bad battle. Some people even licked their faces to say hello to him, it was so special. Forget it, forget it, I was going to lose in the first place, but now I feel like losing.

Except for the A army that had just invaded and the dozens of people who died in the melee, 99% of the people in Lianchuan were actually here laughing and joking. Except for a few dead fellow villagers who would mourn for a while, some people were upset that Army A arrived so quickly that they didn't even finish breakfast.

Convinced!

Fine!

Xiaoheita asked them to quickly organize the team under the organization of Feng Gongren, and retreat to the rear of Yamauchi Yoshiharu's main formation to renovate.

Then Yamauchi's team of chief planners also came back. They were even better. When they turned around and ran back, they formed a team as they ran. When he ran in front of Xiao Pingtai, it was already an army that could not be seen as having just "fleeed". Of course, most of the weapons, flags and horses were left on the battlefield. After all, it was like "throwing away the helmet and armor".

The two people quickly went to Yamauchi Yoshiji's main camp and asked Yamauchi Yoshiji to send Yamabushi or Ranha people to inspect the battlefield situation near Sankawa. Itagaki Nobukata, who was confirming whether Army A had really stopped advancing, was cleaning the battlefield and inspecting the heads.

At the same time, the Yamauchi Yisheng Division, which has a large number of people and strong soldiers and horses, also began to mobilize, ready to attack head-on at any time.

Koheita was sitting in the shogunate, anxiously waiting for Ranbo to come and report the results. After all, whether the Uedahara battle could proceed as he expected would depend on whether his first independent military command would be ridiculed. Start fighting.

The envoys who reported quickly entered the camp frequently. First of all, Takeda Harunobu's 5,500-strong Houjie Corps rushed to the battlefield from Kai. The whole army was in high morale because they heard that Itagaki Nobukata's few soldiers had defeated the Yamauchi Army's front line. They were celebrating and making fire to cook.

Especially Itagaki Nobukata's former army, because there were a lot of Yamauchi military supplies left on the battlefield, and they were happily distributing and counting them. As expected, Itagaki Nobukata began to inspect Yamauchi without any shelter in the vast wilderness. The dozens of heads of the army.

After hearing this gratifying news, everyone looked at Xiao Pingtai with admiration. Sure enough, everything was as Xiaopingtai expected. It was just sending dozens of trash fish to expose such a big flaw in Army A.

However, Takeda Harunobu's Kai army has also arrived at Uedahara. Now, the Yamauchi family's military strength is at a disadvantage. Should they surprise Itagaki Nobukata's troops and then attack with the whole army? Yamauchi Yoshitori rubbed his chin and watched. The retainers who took action.

He was a little undecided, so he first stared at the treasure in his hand and shook it, as if the treasure had some special power.

"Don't miss this opportunity, it will never come back!" Xiaopingta saw a slight hesitation in Yamauchi Yoshiji and felt that he had to give him a shot in the arm, so he immediately spoke up.

"On the battlefield, where soldiers are fierce and dangerous, the most fearful thing is suspicion and hesitation!" Hokahata University also said.

At this time, an envoy rushed in, "Ejiri Castle's Isshiki Palace is a mile and a half away from here."

"Tell the people in the palace not to join forces, but to attack Ubukawa!" Yamauchi Yoshiharu stood up and shouted the order.

"Zuo Ma Tou, Xiao Heita, take five hundred people and attack Itagaki Suruga!"

"yes!"

Hey, hey, he fell out of the top 600 on the list.
