Civilization Guardian Front

Seeing this scene in the eyes of Imagawa Jun, what he felt was not beauty, but the anger of being underestimated.

"How dare you look down on me so much!"

"The enemy general is right in front of you, go!"

General Imagawa Household Attendant Asahina Shinoki walked in the front with a sword, and the frontline samurai was greatly encouraged, leading the spear and foot light to follow and attack the hill ahead.

However, the road to the front line has not been smooth.Oda Nobuna's personal guards, a hundred horses are still guarding behind the fence. Almost all members of the horses are warriors who have practiced martial arts since childhood. Although their bow skills are not perfect, they can shoot condescendingly within a hundred paces. More than enough clumsy soldiers.

These elite warriors wield heavy vine bows and shoot arrows strong enough to pierce armor.

Whoosh whoosh!

Hundreds of arrows flew out from behind the fence, and each arrow was aimed by the archer, shooting downward from a high place with astonishing force.

More than [-] Imagawa ashigaru were shot through the chest or thigh, and rolled downhill with a scream, or fell to their knees and wailed.Asahina Shinoki immediately turned sideways and took the arrow with his shoulder armor. Although the quality of the armor was good, it was so painful that he gritted his teeth.

The Imagawa Army, which was at the forefront, was hit head-on.

Generally, arrows with light arches have no accuracy at all. Only when they are assembled in an army can they be a little threatening. The hit rate of Ma Huizhong is frightening in comparison.

Most of the ashigaru from peasant backgrounds lacked the bravery of samurai, and before stepping into the battle, many people were shot and killed first, and their confidence was briefly shaken.Imagawa Ashgaru involuntarily slowed down and lowered his figure.

But in this way, it gave the archers more time to prepare, and let the Oda Ma Hui bow and arrows suppress the Imagawa army for a while.

"Bring the bow!" An Imagawa samurai took the bow and arrow from his subordinates, aimed at a horseback samurai and shot it.

The Oda horse warrior hid behind the wooden fence, and the arrow pierced the wooden post, leaving behind the buzzing sound of its tail feathers trembling.

The horses bowed their bows and set their arrows again, leaned out from behind the wooden fence, and shot a volley downwards to cover them.

Arrows attacked like black locusts, and the Imagawa army without cover could only lie on the ground, and those who moved slower had been shot into hedgehogs by the dense arrow rain.

"Back!" Asahina Shinoki stood up with his hands on the ground, wiped off the mud on his face, and led his subordinates back a hundred steps away.

"Hateful...I have [-] troops but I can't immediately break through the main formation defended by a mere [-] men." Asahina Tai Chao watched the first batch of attacking soldiers attack in vain and gritted his teeth.

"Sending people to lead troops to attack again and again will give the Oda Army a chance to defeat them one by one, so it is better to attack in an all-round way."

Back from the front line, Asahina Shinoki suggested with a feathered arrow stuck in his shoulder armor:

"With a large number of people, you will not be afraid if you are light-footed."

"Alright, Takusuke Ina, the messenger, let's launch a general offensive."

Upon receiving the order from the cavalry, the grey-haired veteran Ii Naomori waved his spear and shouted:

"Don't be a pointless target here!"

"The whole army is on the charge, and those who don't stand up will be killed without mercy!"

Several ashigaru who tried to retreat were beheaded by the Imagawa samurai with their swords. The losses caused by the horses made the general Imagawa lose his patience. Charge up.

"The Sichuan army has lost its sense of proportion, this is an opportunity to win..."

Oda Nobuna's slightly closed eyes finally opened, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his awe-inspiring eyes.She stood up, waved her hand forward and said:

"Attack with the whole army and defeat the enemy!"

General Oda's flag was raised high, and two horns were blown at the same time.

woohoo~

Like the sound of awakening a sleeping beast, the five thousand Oda soldiers hiding in the long grass behind the hill got up one by one.

Leading the [-] troops are Ikeda Hengxing, Sasaka Narumasa, Kawajiri Hidetaka and others among the Oda Horse Hui. They have been waiting for a signal from their lord for a long time.

"The Jinchuan army has fallen into the trap, let's go!" Ikeda Hengxing pointed at the battlefield ahead with a brand new sword in his hand.

The flag with the papaya pattern was inserted into the wooden barrel on the back, and the samurai ran towards the battlefield with his sword held high and his long spear held high.

Oh oh oh!

"Is there an ambush in the Oda army?"

"Damn it, I don't want to die here!"

Suddenly seeing a large number of Oda troops with black armor and yellow flags charging aggressively, the Imagawa army panicked. Many people dropped their weapons and fled in fear without even caring about the number of enemies.Ashgaru, who did not escape, was pushed by deserters and could not form a front to resist.

In the midst of the chaos, the Five Thousand Oda Army did not slow down, catching up and fighting with the Imagawa Army.

Oda Ashgaru, who has a well-organized lineup, uses three guns to display the gun quilt combat method. Each spear points at different parts of the human body. If a single person does not have superb martial arts skills, it is extremely difficult to protect the body, and the end is to be pierced by multiple guns.

If the Jinchuan army is not chaotic and responds with guns and quilts, this tactic will not have much effect.The two sides can only rely on the barrel of the gun to beat the enemy, and see which side is the first to fail and retreat.

Since one side was powerless to defend, the killing effect of the gun quilt was quite bloody. Imakawa Ashgaru was stabbed one after another, and the corpse was picked up and dropped.

The Imagawa army, which has a larger number, was in poor spirits due to marching overnight, and was ambushed when they stormed the main line, and their morale plummeted. As a result, they are now being beaten back by the Oda army.

The battle lasted for an hour. After all, the Jinchuan army had a large number of people, and some samurai personally stepped forward to kill the enemy. Although they gradually showed defeat, they did not completely collapse.

Many corpses were left on the battlefield in front of the battle, and the heads of the dead were very attractive to Ashgaru, who was eager for merit.

"No one is allowed to leave the team without authorization to take the head." Sasao Chengzheng glanced coldly at some of the soldiers who were about to move, and immediately stopped their greed with a voice.

"If the order continues, Her Royal Highness will record credit for all of our victories, and those who take the head privately have no merit."

Nobuna, who was standing in the formation, saw Sasama Narumasa prevent the soldiers from stealing the leader from a distance, and nodded in relief.

"Chengzheng is calm and decisive, he is really a good general."

"...Everyone is following His Highness's side for His Royal Highness's ideal." Inu Chiyo's tone lacked ups and downs, but the seriousness in his eyes was not false.

"...Chengzheng Palace certainly does not want to be negligent and disappoint Her Highness the Princess."

After listening to Inuchiyo's words, Nobuna had a smile on his face, and asked intentionally or unintentionally:

"Inuchiyo has also become able to talk, did he learn from Chios?"

"...Well." Inuchiyo didn't notice the deep meaning in Nobuna's tone, and nodded obediently.

"Haah..." General Oda couldn't help but let out a long sigh, pressing his finger on his temple.

"I always feel that...it will become troublesome in the future."

The battlefield between the Oda Army's vanguard and the Mikawa Army...

"Where did that battle-crazed Katsuya go by himself?" Chios led a thousand troops to charge left and right in the midst of the Sanhe soldiers, but Shibata Katsuie was nowhere to be seen.

Although the Sanhe Army's first line of defense was easily breached, they had to admit that they were still very annoying.Chios, who rushed through the third column of spears, found some Mikawa Ashgaru who had been scattered by the Oda Army, and after being gathered up by the samurai, they gathered together and tried to double him.

However, the number of Oda troops was not too bad, and they were tightly assembled. The small group of troops on the periphery only slowed down the advance speed of Chios's troops, and did not pose a real threat.

Realizing that the Sanhe warriors were the core, Chios gave up killing the miscellaneous soldiers and concentrated on finding the warriors to assassinate.

How to identify a samurai?Equipped and accompanied by people.

A Mikawa samurai who was accompanied by ten ashigaru found that Chios was running towards him alone, felt slighted and led the crowd to meet him.

"Being a hero alone? Don't underestimate the warriors of Mihe!"

The Sanhe samurai stabbed out his spear in spite of his life, Chios swung the sword lightly to deflect the opponent's spear blade, the blade slid down the barrel of the spear, and when he retracted the sword, he saw the warrior's head flying in the air.

puff!

Blood sprayed three feet high from the broken neck and sprinkled on the surrounding soldiers. The headless corpse was still twitching and took half a step forward before finally collapsing.

The Mihe soldiers around were so frightened by this cruel scene that they lost their will to fight, and the blood-soaked Ashigaru even cried and vomited out.

(It's meaningless to stay here, and the rest will be handed over to his subordinates.) Chios rode his horse and left the area, galloping towards the battle where the resistance was fierce.

"The next one is..." Chios was searching for a valuable target, and just broke into the stalemate on both sides of Oda Mikawa, but what he saw made his eyes narrow slightly.

In the gap between the two armies confronting each other with three guns, a boy wearing a 21st-century Japanese high school uniform suddenly appeared. No one could clearly see how he appeared.

In a moment shorter than the blink of an eye, there was a strange person on the battlefield out of thin air who couldn't tell the enemy from himself.

"Oh, it's amazing, it's even more powerful than the movie "Seven Samurai"!"

The boy in the middle of the battlefield let out an untimely exclamation.

No one was merciful because of the boy's weird behavior. The soldiers of the two armies only regarded him as an enemy ninja, and stabbed their spear blades almost at the same time, trying to clear this "roadblock" that was an eyesore.

However, the boy's body twisted and rolled strangely, and he escaped the stabbing of several spears!Roll and crawl like a monkey to escape the center of the battlefield.

"Has it finally appeared... The protagonist of the mission world, Yoshiharu Sagara." Chios murmured as he watched the high school boy flee in embarrassment.

He didn't have the intention of turning the horse's head to chase and kill the opponent, although this seemed to be a way to complete the task.But judging from the opponent's twisting movements that surpassed that of a yoga master when dodging the guns of the two armies, this seemingly harmless protagonist is actually very difficult to kill.

If he didn't make enough preparations, at most he could only get injured and escape, and it would be even more difficult to control this monkey-like character out of Chios' sight.

After completing the consideration in his mind in an instant, Chios continued to hunt down Samurai Mikawa, and searched for traces of Katsuie Shibata by the way.

"Samurai of the Oda family, come and fight me Watanabe Hanzo!"

There was a thick roar in his ear, and Chios turned his eyes and saw a strong warrior wearing a girdle and a white scarf on his head riding a horse. Blow, cut across the throats of two people, and then penetrated the chest of the last person.

"Oh? I actually met a famous person." Chios pulled the rein and turned the horse's head. He quickly swung his knife to kill Mikawa Ashgaru who was blocking the way, and headed towards the burly warrior.

One of the sixteen Tokugawa generals in the future, Watanabe Shouzuna, known as "Gun Hanzo".

"It's just a nobody now, let me try your weight."

Chapter 13? A ride to discuss

"Surrender!" The length of the spear allowed Watanabe Shouzuna to attack first. It was not a gorgeous but powerful and precise straight thrust, and the tip of the spear was aimed at the tall black-armored general who was rushing to kill him.

However, he saw that the military commander held his sword across his chest, and when the blade of the spear almost pierced his heart, he raised his arm and hit the spear head with the root of the sword at the junction of the blade.

Keng!

The sword collided with the long spear, and sparks burst out from the intersection of the weapons.

The unexpectedly strong force caused Watanabe Shouzune to uncontrollably deflect the spear blade to the right side of Chios' cheek, and landed in the empty space.Then, with the help of the counter-shock, the upward-drawn Taidao accelerated its power accumulation, and swung it down towards Watanabe Shouzuna who entered the attack range with a sharp sound of breaking the wind.

The simple and fierce counterattack sword technique made Watanabe Shouzuna break out in a cold sweat, and he quickly raised the end of the gun barrel to catch the opponent's head-on slash in a way of unloading.

The two horses galloped past each other, and a small section of the gun danced in the air and circled a few times, and finally plunged into the ground.

In a fight, although neither side was injured, Watanabe Shouzuna's spear end was cut off when blocking the blade.

"This is the Ichi no Tachi of Tsukahara Master Tsukahara..." Watanabe Shouzuna looked at the flat cut on the end of his favorite spear and said in disbelief.

"This is a secret technique that is not passed on, Master Tsukahara actually taught it to you, who are you?"

"I don't know the Master Tsukahara you're talking about..." Chios swung the sword, the blade was a little blunt after several slashes, and the blow just now failed to accomplish anything.

"This is the Fool's Sword Power, from the Southern Man's sword technique."

"Nanban's swordsmanship..." Watanabe Shouzuna frowned. He couldn't believe that Nanban actually possessed skills comparable to the sword master Tsukahara's secret sword, but it's not suitable to go too deep at this moment.

Although the tail end of the favorite gun was cut off, but based on the familiarity with this gun for many years, it did not have much effect on its use.Watanabe Shouzuna pointed his gun forward, and shouted at the tall samurai in front of him:

"Samurai of the Oda family, report your name!"

"Chios Felino Langlonado, a Southern barbarian, is currently serving as an ashigaru under the command of Princess Xinnai."

At first hearing the name of a Nanman reported by the other party, Watanabe Shouzuna was stunned, but he couldn't pronounce the name, so he had to say:

"Okay, warriors from the Nanban, accept the bet that my Mikawa samurai Watanabe Shouzuna bet his life on!"

After finishing speaking, Watanabe Shouzuna clamped his horse's belly, danced his spear and rushed towards Chios.

During the battle, the soldiers of Oda and Mikawa couldn't help slowing down their movements, and turned their attention to the duel between the two.

Although the two samurai are not the main generals of their own military power, Watanabe Shouzuna is just a small ashigaru group leader in the eyes of the Mikawa people, but his marksmanship attainments are respected by many middle and high-level samurai. A warrior recognized by the Sanhe people.

And Chios is still relatively unfamiliar to the Oda soldiers, but compared with Shibata Katsuie, who left his soldiers to rush to kill himself when the battle started, Chios often rushed to the forefront, but he never left the sight of the soldiers , issued a lot of key orders, and many deadlocked fronts only reduced casualties by beheading the Mihe warriors.

The ashigaru and lower-level warriors of the two armies watched with bated breath the confrontation between Chios and Shouzuna Watanabe. It can be said that half of the morale of the two armies was tied to this duel. hit.

It was already the eighth time that fast horses crossed each other, and I saw a cloud of silver sword light and black spear shadow wielding their weapons, but the fierce sparks of the first confrontation were no longer seen.

Shouzuna Watanabe gave up the powerful stabbing move, reducing the chance for Chios to seize the opening and counterattack. At the same time, he took advantage of the distance advantage of the long spear to skillfully play the spear, and occasionally mixed with the threatening middle attack in the false move. Flat gun.

Because of the length of the weapon, Chios couldn't get the upper hand.He took the initiative to probe into the shadow of the opponent's spear with a tachi, trying to forcibly draw out the opponent's mistakes with his sticky sword skills, but Watanabe Shouzuna's spear didn't entangle with him at all, and it always got close to him.

"Tsk, you're actually fighting a guerrilla."

Another shot failed to achieve a result, Chios narrowed his deep and long eyes, he didn't expect that the guy in front of him with a rough appearance and voice would actually play such a trick in a duel.

He didn't intend to fight the rough hooded man in front of him for three hundred rounds, what was more important was the situation of the battle, rather than immersing himself in the blood of a one-on-one fight.

(It seems that a small risk is required.)

Turning the horse's head and facing Watanabe Shouzuna at a distance of 50 meters, Chios frowned, with impatience written all over his face, and charged straight at his opponent without adjusting his breathing.
