A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Terutora Uesugi is the courage to lead the Uesugi clan's army and the spirit of the entire city. With one person and one horse, all four hooves are galloping, and wherever the spear in his hand is pointing, the army will break through.

He had always commanded the army, but when they saw his heroic appearance, like a military god descending to earth, no one dared to show off his sharpness, so much so that the tip of the spear in Teru Uesugi's palm was shining brightly, and he rode on horseback for a long time without tasting a drop of blood.

However, the Yixiang Yikui army trampled on each other, howling like ghosts and wolves, with no swords or guns at all, but their own company and battalion were completely routed, and the entire perimeter of the Yixiang Yikui army had turned into a hell.

What's ridiculous is that the Uesugi army, even including General Uesugi Teruhora, only had 300 cavalry. The cavalry didn't even attack with swords and guns, they just drove their horses forward and charged forward. (It is true that the Japanese cavalry wears better armor in Japan, but judging from world standards, it is indeed not good. These three hundred are not the medieval Western European Norman-style heavy cavalry with guns. Being able to have the courage to charge 60,000 infantry head-on, although there are some miraculous battle examples in history, is still an unbelievable feat of bravery)

Uesugi Terutora's current state was as if he had gone to Kasugayama Castle Town for a walk. Just like he usually patrolled his territory, he slipped his free moon hair and rushed to the outskirts of the center of Hokuriku, which had always been a military force.

After waiting here, Uesugi Teruhu finally found something different. First of all, there was a small-scale organization. Under the leadership of the local village chief or the preacher and preacher whom they were familiar with, the Yikui army began to form groups and groups to protect themselves.

This shows his consistent organizational power, and his mobilization power at the grassroots level is almost astonishing. The religious organization's tentacles extend to every village, large and small, and come into contact with every person who believes in the Yixiang Sect. Through countless grassroots religious organizations, tens of thousands of believers can be mobilized with just one order. This was also a rare mobilization power and speed in the Warring States Period.

Since the troops of Kaga and other countries were all villagers from the same village, even father and son brothers, everyone cooperated tacitly. When the whistle blew, the formation hat was wiped on the forehead and put on the head, holding up the spear, they formed a circle.

That coordination and formation, from the perspective of the feudal era, can at least be good. If you can feed and train well, you will definitely be a rare and powerful army. (Zaga Sunshi is the Zaiga clan of Suzuki Shigehide of the Kii Suzuki Party, and the main body is just a disciple of the Ichiki Sect. As long as they are well trained and fight a few battles, their fighting power can defeat our Toyokuni Daimyojin Toyo. Hideyoshi was so disgusted that he was half dead.)

However, it is a pity that due to the lack of higher-level organization of the Yikui Army, the shortcomings of the Yikui Army, which does not have many skilled and powerful middle-level officers, have been greatly exposed. This small group of Yi Kui army soldiers who finally gathered together could only save themselves and wait for orders. This is probably a limitation of soldiers in the feudal era, lacking subjective initiative.

Looking at the entire battlefield, it is not completely one-sided. There is a group of Yikui troops in the camp that is particularly strong. It almost looks like it stands out from the crowd. The soldiers of the group are getting bigger and bigger. In the center, someone is beating a musical instrument similar to a Buddhist bell. With a clanging sound, Yikui troops are pouring in from all directions. past.

Uesugi Teruhora glanced at it and saw on the horse tag that it read Kaga Country Yasui Daisuke (Yasui Castle is an important branch city of Kaga Country, controlled by the powerful Japanese lord Yasui clan. Unfortunately, the Yasui clan has declined by now. As for the word Miao) As for Yasui’s celebrity, friends who have been to Osaka must know that the developer of Dotonbori, a loyal minister of the Toyotomi Hideyoshi family, Yasui Doton) is not very clear. However, since someone reunited the soldiers on the battlefield, it was possible to counterattack or to defend and wait for an attack. His battlefield acumen told him to defeat this group of people.

Just as he was about to turn his horse around, Terutora Uesugi saw clearly and quickly rushed towards the headquarters of the Yasui Daichusuke headquarters where more than a thousand people had gathered. More than two hundred of the Uesugi clan's followers followed closely behind, holding their weapons high.

Teruhora Uesugi ran closer, but was surprised to find that the group of people was slowly retreating. Maintaining a military force of more than a thousand men, they were able to remain calm during the retreat.

But he is simply acting like a monster. In the chaotic battlefield crowd, he has the ability and prestige to gather soldiers, but he does not seek to fight back, but seeks to protect himself. This man is also a wonderful person.

But this was just an interlude, and the Yasui chef's department immediately disappeared. Then Teruhora Uesugi's target must be the "dignified" masters in the center of the formation.

Seeing that no one was organized except for the scattered Yikui army, Uesugi Teruhora increased his horse speed and rushed towards Namu Amitabha's tent.

As the saying goes, to shoot a man first, shoot a horse first to catch a thief, first to catch a king. Although there are always many soldiers, they can gather under the Kasuga Mountain Castle because they rely on their Dharma Master, the Master.

Teruhora Uesugi saw things very clearly. As long as he laid down the master from Kanazawa, everything would be easy. The free-spirited moon hair under his crotch is really a good horse with a lot of intelligence. The Uesugi Teruator, who is full of fighting spirit, penetrates the curtain of the army. The curtain immediately broke. Several Uesugi cavalry also broke through the curtain and rushed in, preparing to raise their guns and face a fierce battle.

But apart from the mess on the ground, there was not a single resisting soldier in the camp. Those sanctimonious military leaders who had always been in charge of the army left behind 40,000 to 50,000 believers who loved and respected them and ran away without even their shadows.

An Uesugi samurai jumped off his horse, took out his sword, stepped forward and chopped down the big flag with Namu Amitabha written on it, and then glanced at this strange horse mark with contempt.

Uesugi Terutora, who punched the cotton hard, had no choice but to take a few cavalry who caught up with him and stroll out of the camp.

When the flag fell, the whole army collapsed.

Their official master had disappeared long ago, and the soldiers at the grassroots level could not remember their Buddha. They were running around like flies, aimlessly, all over the mountains and plains.

Uesugi Teruhu felt so empty. No one was killed. The charge lasted for less than an hour. The 60,000-strong army just finished the game. It was like punching the air. I had known that Yi Kui's army was so vulnerable. Apart from its huge numbers, it didn't even have an enemy for Yi He.

He sighed very lonely and said that there was no one in Hokuriku, and ordered the ashigaru in the city to come out to capture these mobs, but they were not allowed to kill anyone. Let each of them redeem themselves for thirty dollars, otherwise how would Kasugayama Town have the money to rebuild.
