When the surface of the Akami Naokai shakes

Yonglu fourteen years (1571) Early October Yamashiro GuoUji County Yamako Decaying Wood Keyboard

"Your Highness?"

Ten soldiers peered into me as I sat back. Oh, I don't know, I have to stand up.

"Ten soldiers, a bunch of bamboo prepared by Sanho, but what do you think it's for?

"Now... is it something to protect yourself from artillery attacks?

"I guess."

"But it's a bunch of bamboo, you think you can keep the lead balls off the cannon?

Uenonosuke is surprised. No, the same goes for other military methods. Ten soldiers also have a half-hearted look.

"I guess I can prevent it. The bamboo is thickened by several layers. Instead of standing vertically on it, if you put it somewhat diagonally, the power of the bullet will be shredded."

"But"

"You don't keep getting shot all the time, Gengoro. The fact that it is swinging is quite light, the movement is not restricted. I hope it only prevents me while I pack my distance from the cannon. Two or three shots, I don't think that's possible."

Everyone is thinking about it.

Bamboo bundle, it was invented during the Warring States. Light and materials are bamboo and rope, so it is relatively easy to get. For this reason, it was quickly spread throughout the country. Ultimately, a bunch of bamboo with clay and pebbles to boost defense appeared to have been made, as well as items for large cylinders. I forgot my name when I invented the bamboo bundle, but I'm a Takeda family minister. I remember reading that the time was before the Battle of Nagashiro. But the Takeda family suffered a massive defeat before Nobunaga's Iron Artillery Squad in the Battle of Nagashiki. What happened to the bamboo bundle? You think so.

To my mind, the bamboo bundle was originally invented not as a protective gear to be used in field operations, but as a protective gear to be used in siege warfare. If you're in the field, it's not hard to pack the distance and crush it if you're prepared for some damage unless you use a lot of artillery in excess. But if it's a siege, the cannon is protected by the castle. The attacker is shot unilaterally. Damage only increases. I think it was made with it.

I haven't heard that Takeda made a bunch of bamboo in this world. Maybe the inventor even died in battle before inventing the bamboo bundle. Or is it no longer necessary to invent? In this world Takeda has been unable to take offense since the Battle of the Fourth River Nakajima. There will be less siege warfare itself. There should have been less need to make a bunch of bamboo. And instead Sanho made a bunch of bamboo.

At the last Battle of Mountain Family, Sanko was shot and beaten scatterly by the Decaying Wood Artillery Squad. In order to beat decaying trees, we have to disable the artillery somehow, that's what I thought. Necessary is the mother of invention, the ingredients are everywhere bamboo and rope. It's not strange that Sanho invented it instead of Takeda. I'd rather lose my mind in my greed to win. I guess we need this greed to capture the heavens. It's depressing.

"It seems that about 10,000 soldiers possess a bunch of bamboo. Ten thousand of them will push us to the artillery squad."

Everyone's face was stretched out. The Decaying Wood Artillery Corps is deployed in the center, except for what the people of the country possess. Ten thousand good people are going to go for it. In other words, crushing the artillery squad means making a central breakthrough, and if the center is destroyed, winning or losing will be decided. It is the defeat of Decaying Wood.

"Why don't we lower the artillery team backwards?

"You're not gonna use it in this fight?

"No, look at the desk. Side of the enemy, turn back and attack."

"Is it possible?

A man in the military is coming up with an opinion. Lower it back, or I mean, don't be a fight between three good guys and a beating.

"My lord, without using the artillery squad, this one is 50% more than the Sanho army. Let's win."

"If you only consider the number, you're going to win, Shimono."

You must have seen that I didn't agree. Shoguno Shimono, no, everyone has a surprise look.

"Decaying trees have never lost. But I've never hit the same number of enemies from the front. He has crushed his enemies with artillery, ambush, and pinch. I've never won a battle with my feet. Decaying Wood soldiers are soldiers hired with money. Compared to a civilian soldier, there is no stomping. Trinity is dying and going crazy, and I can't say for sure that we can win with 50% more."

When I pointed it out, I groaned, "Hmm."

Hire soldiers with money and always be prepared. There are two advantages to this. The first is that we do not have to lose the territory's workforce, the inhabitants, in war, which means that we do not have to lose our productivity. The second is that soldiers can be sent out during the agricultural breeding season in order not to use the civilian population, which simply means that they can fight for 24 hours and 365 days. But if there are advantages, there are drawbacks. There are three drawbacks. The first is that it costs money, the second is that you can't expect loyalty, and the third is that you're used to fighting.

The third battle I'm used to, it doesn't seem bad. But when this guy is tied to the fact that he can't expect loyalty, which is his second shortcoming, it becomes absurd. It means that if the battlefield gets a little disadvantaged, the footlights will run away without stepping on it. In other words, the Admiral has to keep appealing to the Footmen that the allies are always in their favor and can win.

Nobunaga of historical facts always led more soldiers than his enemies unless there was much left to do. I don't think it would have been safe to fight without more troops than superiority. And the commander chose a man who could. If the fool commands, the damage will be greater. Then the soldiers run away. The effective use of soldiers hired with money required more troops and competent commanders than their enemies. Akechi Mitsuyuki, Ichigo Takigawa, Hideyoshi Toyotomi, and the rest of the family won't be born that far. There are similarities between decaying trees. Maida Bulletin, Akechi Shibui, and even though he is not a Spectrum Bill, he is Vice General of Decaying Wood.

Everyone in the military is considering what to do. I guess I should have stopped loading. Doing that puts a burden on the inhabitants of Kyo. Thinking about the future, I thought it would be better to avoid it... Was it a little sweet?

"Heavy Zone"

When I called Heavy Zone, he immediately stopped by.

"I was wondering if the man was still nearby. I need to make sure."

"I'll call you soon."

Heavy Zone walked away for a small run.

The enemy has a bunch of bamboo. If the aim is to crush the artillery squad, it's not heavy equipment. Once inside the artillery squad, the artillery squad is powerless. It would be choosing a relatively minor armed force with an emphasis on mobility. Probably a short spear or a machete. That also means that other than artillery and archers, we can fight more than each other. That's what you're after.

In short, fighting is a matter of combination. Parr beats Goo but loses to Choki. Goo beats Choki but loses to Parr. And Choki beats Parr but loses to Goo. There is no such thing as an absolute strong man in the world. Avoid losing opponents and fight those who are likely to win. That's the secret to winning. Fighting squarely and winning is only a bedtime speech. All you have to do is go to sleep and say it.

Yonglu XIV (1571) Yamashiro Kunikuni Uji County Yamako Sanko Long Yea, early October

There was an army of decaying trees about thirty towns away. There's no movement, apparently I see you holding your last military conference before the battle. Sanoko is going to be in the military.

"Fifty thousand, or something that moved lightly."

"Let decaying trees move eighty thousand if that's what you want. The rest should be moving towards Yamato. Father, Toyomae Shokumi is here for you. Let's go to the military conference."

"Right."

I nodded at Kusuke's words. I didn't know a boy then would be able to move as many as 80,000 large armies...

Toyomoto was waiting with the generals in the main unit. Iwacheng chief tax assistant Tomoto, Shinsuke Matsuyama heavy ji, Imamura Kii Shou Kyungman, Shinkai Yuanjiang Shinsensu, Shinano Akazawa sectarian heritage, Daishi Izumo Shouxiang maintenance. Those who are here will intercept the Decaying Wood Army. When I apologized for the late ginseng and sat on the floor, the military discussion began immediately.

"The time has come for snowflakes"

Everyone snorted at Toyomoto's words. Four years ago, the defeat was nothing but humiliation for the Sanho family, who had controlled Kichinai. I can tell you that everyone was waiting for this time.

"The enemy is 50,000, the ally is 30,000. It can never be said to be an advantage over numbers. And the other guy is Dr. Decaywood, and we all know how strong he is."

Everyone snorts again.

"Decaying wood weapons are artillery and large cylinders. I was hit by this in the last fight. But not this time. There are measures."

You're right, that should be useful enough. The ball of a cannon cannot pierce that one.

"Crush the Decaying Wood Artillery Team first. There's our winning chance. Iwasei, Shinsuke Matsuyama, Kisho Imura, please."

The three people who were called by their names said they would try to live up to their expectations. If the three of them crush the artillery squad, the Decaying Woods will be confused, if they attack there with all the troops, they will be defeated from the confusion. They are inferior in strength but they all have high morale. I can win, that's what I think. There are no more medals to defeat Daikichi Moriki. Everyone expects that. And if you crush a decaying tree, you're done relying on decaying trees. The heavens and the earth will be wrapped up beneath the Aide, who is in the capital.

The military council has returned to the line, but the decaying trees are still in motion. It wasn't until more than two minutes later that I moved out. Though I sandwiched lunch, I spend a lot of time on military discussions. It was difficult to calm Yusuke down. I'm never distracted over there either. We were to confront each other at a distance of less than ten towns. The enemy has an artillery squad in the center. It's the way it always is. That artillery squad is spinning and shooting at the ball without interruption. I was hit by it in the previous battle.

This is Iwasei chief tax assistant in the center, Shinsuke Matsuyama, and Kisho Imamura leading nine thousand. Five thousand for the main unit behind it. On the right wing, eight thousand of the Shinkai Far River Guard, and on the left, eight thousand of the Akazawa Shinanomo Guard and the Oishi Ayunmake Guard. On horseback are more than samurai generals, mostly on foot. The decaying trees are 50,000 large armies, but they are about the same width as this one. I let the formation have the thickness for just that. One way or another, it would be a formation with an emphasis on protection. I might be aiming for this one's shortness of breath.

The operation is not difficult. Crush the Artillery Squad, which is the largest weapon of Decaying Wood. The artillery team is right next to the main unit, if you crush it, there will always be agitation and chaos. Both wings defeat the enemy at once by participating in the attack there. Stop is stabbed by the main unit. Troops are good but not bad. But the battle is not all about numbers. You better take the lead and pull your enemies around to win. There are good odds.

The Decaying Tree Momentum does not move. I packed the distance from here to the five towns. If you pack any more, you will be attacked with a bow. Fortunately, there has been no major attack. Wait for orders to attack with Jiriziri. Are you lost, Toyomae? Already the hour is close to the moment of Shen's passing, if we attack now, the battle will extend to the moment of the hour of the hour, the moment of the hour of the hour of the day. I don't know what would happen if it were a night fight. Maybe you're afraid of that. But it is also possible that decaying trees will strike at night, we should take the lead and attack here...

The phallic shells rang! And the hanging drum got hit! Have you made up your mind, Toyomae? Along with that, Iwasei chief tax aide, Shinsuke Matsuyama, and Eight Thousand Foot Squads led by Kii Imura set up a bunch of bamboo and shouted at the enemy, no, they started running toward the Iron Artillery Squad. The distance between the five towns is neglected. The enemy has launched an attack with a bow and arrow. Where we shrunk down to two towns, this one also began to storm against the enemy formation. There is already a first-round fire from the artillery squad.

An awesome noise called Dadarn echoed on the battlefield. I manage to contain the horse I was riding from being frightened. It's the sound of a cannon scratching off the screams of the soldiers. But few soldiers fall. It worked!

"See! You can't be invincible with a decaying wood cannon! Don't be afraid to push!

When they raised their voices, the soldiers shouted "oops”. A second shot to put it out, but the result is the same. There are no fallen soldiers. Soon enough, the central foot squad will hit the artillery squad, we won!

"Father!"

Kusuke, who was running his horse right beside him, raised his voice. My face is cramped.

"What's up?

"The Decaying Wood Artillery Squad..."

The Decaying Wood Artillery Team?

"Stupid, what do you mean..."

There was no artillery team, and instead there was a long spear foot squad there. What do you mean?

A decaying wooden foot squad slammed a long spear on a three-good foot squad! The foot squad stopped moving. Awkward! The central foot squad only has a short spear or a machete for having a bunch of bamboo. One decaying wooden foot squad is armed with a long spear between three lengths. I get slapped on one side with that one. In the bamboo bundle, even if you can prevent lead balls, you can't prevent the impact of long spears. Knocked, poked, knocked, poked, alternately attacked and neglected to retreat.

... Did they do it? Decaying trees were aware that this one would use a bunch of bamboo. I dared to use the artillery squad to attract a foot squad with a bunch of bamboo, the true aim is to beat the attracted foot squad with a long spear foot squad. Was it because of the adjustment around there that the military debate took so long... They did it!

Don't get lost! You can't come this far and leave!

"Don't be afraid! There are no artillery squads in the decaying trees, penetrate!

When he raised his voice, he raised his voice and said, "Whoa," but it was weaker than earlier. The soldiers are feeling anxious. Now!

"Penetrate!"

I raised my voice.

Yonglu fourteen years (1571) Early October Yamashiro GuoUji County Yamako Decaying Wood Keyboard

A long-standing spear foot squad is slapping a three-good central foot squad.

"Looks like you made it."

"Um, I'm hitting it unilaterally"

A satisfactory voice rose from all around him. The war is good, everyone's voice is bright. I'm finally relieved.

"Gengoro, what happened to the artillery squad?

"We're already pulling back and forming a team."

When asked, Gengoro answered. Looks happy, I'm sure of the win.

"Turn it behind your enemies when you're ready. Command Lieutenant Left's uncle to work with the artillery squad to block the rear of the enemy."

"Ha."

Yuen Goro has called two servants to order what I said. When I heard it, my usage ran out.

Use a bunch of bamboo to pack the distance and set up a melee battle on the artillery squad. In that case, the artillery squad will just be confused. So I positioned only half of the artillery squad to get two shots and then put a long spear foot squad forward. Enemy foot squads can't have longer spears than they have a bunch of bamboo. Short spear or a machete. If so, you can win by the length of the weapon. If you try to prevent being slapped with a bunch of bamboo, you will need to put your hands up and step on it, it will be on the side of the defense. And if you put a bunch of bamboo up there, your torso will be empty. If you get poked with a spear, it's over.

That was a bet, there was no guarantee that a foothold with a bunch of bamboo would come. It was hard to convince everyone. And I was a jerk. I dared to put the artillery squad forward to attract the enemy, but the triple foot march was faster than I thought. It was good with two shots, if it had been three shots, it would have allowed a three-good foot squad to break in. I managed to get a long spear foot squad out front in time. Even if it looks like a victory, it's a paper victory.

Both winged foot squads are also fighting without being pushed by a three-good foot squad. No, it looks more like a push. If it's a disadvantage, some sorrow seeps through the voices you hear. But the voices you hear are bright and powerful. The use of reporting on the status of the war also tells us that the allies are the dominant ones. I guess the central foot squad is fighting without anxiety because of their dominance. The soldiers are convinced of victory.

"My lord, the artillery team is about to be on the enemy's side."

Yuen Shiro raised his voice. Yuen Chiro is the son of Nobunami, Shiro Ashida, Shinsengumi Left. Quite well done. If you're the type full of talent that Maida Gengoro would sound like if you hit him, Gengoro is the calm and sedentary type. I feel like these two would do a good job if I let them put together.

"The enemy's main unit is in the artillery squad! Ah, the Horse Riders are on their way to the enemy's main unit!

Horse-riding squads are not easy to deal with 2,000 or 5,000 foot squads. But you don't have to fight it, just restrain it. If the enemy is headed for the Unshielded Artillery Squad, there's a gap, poke it there and you can easily beat it. You're looking forward to your uncles' work here. How to judge and how to move.

"My lord, what about the chase?

Ten soldiers asked.

"... a pursuit"

Autumn sundown is early, I know you're thinking about it, but it's not like you've decided to win yet. Don't you feel a little fast?

"We should chase this place hard! If we don't do a great deal of damage to the Trinity."

A voice of consent was raised from the other side to Yuen Goro's words. Right, the pursuit wasn't thorough in the last fight. I had no choice but to worry about the rear this time. You should do as much damage as you can.

"One is against the other. I was wondering if we could cut the chase early."

The opponent was Shoguno Kamato. Everybody stuck around saying the pursuit should be tough, but it doesn't work at all. I honestly admired the way the belly stood. Shoguno Shimono stared at everyone.

"If you chase too hard, Sanhao will be able to light the city of Kyo and run away, okay?

Oh, my God, they all shut up. You got a fight.

"Shoguno Shimono is right. Even if you win the battle when you are set on fire by Kyo, you lose as well as the Battle of Upper Lo. I'm a little angry, but I have to give Sanho room to abandon Kyo."

Everyone nodded. The sound of the cannon rang. One shot, two shots. At the same time, there is cheer from the decaying woods. Apparently, there's been a battle.
