open sea

Chapter 431 Yamabuki
Wang Rulong was still righteous, Chen Bazhi gave such a despicable order to a warrior without red face, but Wang Rulong couldn't do it.

Wang Rulong had to say that after he received the order, he sent a bannerman who could understand Japanese to the front of the battle and told the opponent loudly that he would use 600 people to fight all of them.

As the first general, Kou Yu Chunliang was taken aback, riding on a pony, he raised the tassel gun in his hand and either put it down or put it down. Wang Rulong's words turned in his mind for several times before he realized that he didn't dare to beg for it.

If you don't dare to take the lead, you don't dare, and you won't laugh at you, why are you so majestic, and use six hundred people to compete with them?
First to be a general means the vanguard general, literally translated into Chinese as the brave captain who slashes people, and the meaning of the position is very clear.

Seeing the enemy in the distance split into six squads to attack side by side, Haruyo Kouha was not afraid, raised his spear and shouted: "Team Kouha, advance!"

The [-] ashigaru behind them were slowly advancing under the leadership of various warriors. These ashigaru from Iwami country town Zhijun Kouwa area were quite afraid of the Ming army because they were close to the battlefield and were recruited early. The fleeing farmer in the countryside heard that Nizi's family captured the Izumo country with great force.

The whole process is that this has fallen, that has fallen, and there is no place that can stop Nizi's troops. This is far more terrifying than knowing the process.

However, when they saw the Ming army in front of them hundreds of steps away, they felt a little more relaxed. The various and strange weapons made the army formation look a bit messy. Except for the messy weapons, Kouyu's Ashgaru eyes were Strong envy——their opponents are wearing thick padded jackets!
Not sackcloth, not cotton-padded clothes, but cotton-padded jackets, my God!

The cotton-padded jackets of the Ming army have greatly boosted the morale of the Kouyu team. Even if the coldest time of the year is coming to an end, you can still wear them next year if you kill them and snatch them back!
The pace of the ashigaru team was brisk because of the existence of the padded jacket. In the eyes of Kobayakawa Jinglong on the mountain behind and Chen Bazhi on the watchtower, the pace of the Kouha team was almost [-]% faster under control, almost as fast as before the decisive battle. flat.

However, the speed of the Ming army on the other side slowed down under Wang Rulong's order, and finally stopped when there were still four or five hundred steps away. They formed a semicircle with a large formation of mandarin ducks, protected the bird gunner in the middle, and a row of big players will The long card was tied down, and a wolf stick and spear were placed on the card.

In the middle of the battle, Wang Rulong shouted to boost morale, and shouted to the surrounding flag troops that he expected the enemy's attack, saying: "The Japanese archers will shoot their arrows first a hundred paces away. You have strong armor, so don't be afraid of arrows!"

Bragging is all about bragging, Wang Rulong is still very honest and makes everyone squat around the round shield hand, so it's just a big show, "Don't let the gun teams go early, wait for the enemy to enter thirty paces, twenty paces is the best. The flag officer listened to Wang's order to release the gun, and the one who released it earlier would be killed!"

"General, the tiger crouching cannon is nailed!"

The six tigers squat cannons, nailed to the feet of the big players, and beside them are small flag quiver and flag soldiers with waists and palms. The military order of Baihu of Banner General Banner is very familiar to me, and each of them waited for the order without saying a word.

"The tiger squats into the loose barrel, and waits to be fifty steps away from the enemy before releasing it. The small flag and arrow are ready, the enemy is about to enter a hundred steps!"

"Yes! The small flag and arrow are ready!"

"Small flag and arrow ready!"

Following Wang Rulong's command, the wolf's spear was erected, and the small banner arrows were placed on the big board. Six small banner archers held up their torches, ready to shoot arrows at the enemy.

Kuchiha Haruyoshi rode his horse side by side with Ashigaru on the left side of the army formation, and he estimated in his mind the exact position to enter seventy or eighty.

'Jian' is the unit of length in the Warring States Period. A room is 1.6 meters, which is similar to one step in the Ming Dynasty. Haruyoshi Kouha calculated the position as 20 meters to [-] meters. At this distance, his archers can well cover the light charge of long spears. To the enemy.

"Archers, let go!"

Almost at the same time that Haruyoshi Kouha found the exact position and ordered his subordinates to stop, a series of screams suddenly came out in front of the Ming army, and his foot lightly entered the range of the Ming army's small flag arrows at the same time, and the six small flag arrows screamed towards The ashigaru team came head-on.

The first round of rockets has just exploded above the head, and the second round of rockets has been released from the front of the mandarin duck formation.

Although the name is Xiaoqijian, Chen Bazhi's logistics force was not that strong in the war away from the mainland. It is impossible for a hundred households to carry ten small flag arrows. The follow-up baggage transport ships are already full of food. There is a lot of pressure on him. It is very reluctant to prepare two flags before the battle begins.

The Mori family was so powerful in Kansai, and most of the ashigaru under his command were equipped with iron bellies. Even so, the explosion of twelve small flag arrows sticking to the face still caused great trouble to the ashigaru of the Kouha team, especially on the mount of Kouha Haruyoshi. The horse was so frightened that it drove him into his own archers.

But the small flag arrows are still beneficial. The smoke of gunpowder exploded all over the sky, so that the Ashgaru team didn't know how many casualties they had, so they started to be afraid when they rushed out of the smoke with their heads covered.

The chaos brought about by the small flag arrows caused some ashigaru to be injured by rocket scatterers, and some to retreat and retreat into confusion. Only a few hundred rushed out of the gunpowder smoke.

Wang Rulong couldn't bear to let the tiger squat, so he waved his hand and ordered: "All the army obeys the order, advance fifty steps!"

The big players held up the big shields, and the battle formation marched forward in orderly steps. The sparse arrows shot over more than ten banner troops, and three military doctors were immediately separated from the formation, removed the arrows and bandaged them with medicine. Reduced to meet the enemy.

Wang Rulong also just realized that it was very wise for the enemy to send the first attacking troops. They watched the battle from a distance, because the advantage of the Ming army was that the Mao Li family knew nothing about them.

Now that they already know that the Ming army has rockets, they will take more precautions in the future. Wang Rulong doesn't want to let the other party know that he has tiger squatting cannons.

Seeing more ashigaru rushing into the dissipating gunpowder again under the urging, Haruyoshi Kuwaha, who was holding a tassel gun in one hand and the handle of a katana in the other, was finally relieved. The enemy did not make any arrows or arrows. Class further remote means, which made him lift his heart back into his stomach.

There are always mentions of crossbows in the Central Plains in ancient books, which made him very worried about this before meeting the Ming army, but now it seems that the Hu thief has lost that powerful weapon in previous wars. There's nothing scary about something smoking.

"As long as they can fight, how can they be opponents?"

Seeing that the enemy's formation became more and more disorganized and getting closer, Wang Rulong clenched the handle of the knife tightly in the formation, and measured the closer and closer distance with his eyes. Finally, when the enemy army entered thirty paces without entering At twenty paces, he shouted loudly: "Bird gun team, let go!"

The general flag of the bird guns, which had been prepared for a long time, waved the command flag immediately, and the bird guns pointing to the sky were facing forward without careful aiming. keep up.

In a blink of an eye, a burst of fire was completed, and the formation was full of gunpowder smoke. Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Wang Rulong ordered: "Down the wolf's trap, and fight!"
