Samurai of the Takeda Family

"My lord, although the fighting power of the powerful Ueno clan is a bit weaker, the number of Takeda's iron cannons is also amazing." Naoe Mizuna believed Uesugi.

"Battle of the sleepy tiger, this will be a hard fight. Even if our army wins, it will suffer heavy casualties," Kenshin Uesugi groaned for a while and ordered: "Let the military of Ueno's powerful clans retreat and retreat. Let the Nagano family as the second division team to replace them."

　　 The riots of the Ueno Elite Football Team could not be suppressed by the bullets for a while. Although in this era, major names have begun to equip a large number of iron cannon units, after all, iron cannons are still new to most people. There are very few samurai in Ueno’s powerful clan, and most of them are newly assembled peasants, so the discipline and persistence are naturally not high.

　　 And the intensive salvo of nearly a hundred iron cannons from the Takeda army, the momentum was enough to shock them.

　　 The troops of the feudal era, as a general rule, once suffered a casualty rate of more than 10%, the morale of the troops would soon be wiped out, and they were almost on the verge of collapse.

　　 The first offense was frustrated, and the Nagano family, as the second division, took on the task of getting into battle. Due to the limited width of the hillside where the Takeda family was stationed, the Nagano army arranged nine azuki long spears in a phalanx, three and three in one line, and the ashika soldiers marched towards the hillside with their guns.

　　The defense on this hillside was chosen by Kansuke Yamamoto in advance, and he wanted to use the narrow terrain here so that the Uesugi Nagano coalition, which has the advantage of numbers, could not deploy its troops.

　　 At this time, Takeda Katsurai's iron artillery team had already filled the ammunition again, and faced the advance of the Nagano army, they once again fired two rows of volleys.

As the smoke from the ammunition dissipated, the head of the iron artillery group visually inspected the shooting. The Nagano soldiers in the front row fell down. However, it was better than the previous Ueno tyrants that the Nagano army faced a salvo of iron cannons. Still kept quite intact.

"Oh!"

　　 Immediately, the Nagano army's spear feet put down their spears together, and began to attack the Takeda army on the hillside.

　　 Riding in the gap of the iron cannon team's normal loading, behind the arrow shield, the bow-footed light team began to shoot a volley of arrows. When the spear is lightly charged, he holds a spear in both hands, so there is no shield that can block arrows, and the armor on his body is mostly made of bamboo, which is mostly inferior to the belly rolls and corpus **** on the samurai.

　　 So when the arrow is shot, the foot light can only press the head low, hoping that the iron-clad array on the top of the head can withstand the one or two shots.

　　 On the Takeda army position, the sound of bowstring vibration and the sound of arrows breaking through the air rang together.

　　 The rain of arrows made the Nagano Army climbing the mountain light enough, and the loss was not small. When the same Nagano’s bow-foot light stepped forward to shoot, not only was it inaccurate due to the angle of the hillside, but most of the arrows shot were blocked by the arrows in front of the Takeda army.

　　 This kind of arrow shield is made of bamboo in the center, and covered with straw on the outside to resist the shooting of iron cannons.

Nagano’s foot light braved the arrow rain to advance hard. They had already rushed to a position no more than 30 meters away from the Takeda army’s position. Dozens of Nagano soldiers who had been shot fell down the mountain like this.

　　 After completing two shooting missions, the iron artillery team retreated directly from both sides of the trench dug to the rear of the formation. The trenches in front of the battlefield became two trenches that blocked the enemy's advance.

Seeing the heavy casualties inflicted on the Nagano army, Takeda Katsurai said with joy to Li Xiao: "Li Xiao, the trenches you designed are really ingenious. From now on, my Takeda army will have to dig these two trenches at the front of the army. ."

　　 Li Xiaowei smiled. Such trenches are fairly defensive, but if they attack, they will block their own people.

　　 "His Royal Highness Shenglai, don't worry, the good show is yet to come."

　　 At this time, the Ueno tycoons under the mountain have integrated the scattered Zuqings, rearranged into a formation and followed the Nagano army to kill on the mountain.

　　 The Nagano Army, who was a bit of a rout by a volley of iron guns, was rebuked by the head of the team, and continued to kill the Takeda Army on the hillside. When jumping the first heavy trench, a dozen people were unstable and planted into the trench. Then, the feet who climbed up from the trench awkwardly, stepped on the feet who jumped over the head.

　　 Just as the Nagano army was about to cross the second trench, Li Xiao suddenly ordered to remove the arrowhead, and then fifteen or six bamboo cages, which were almost one person tall, were pushed out by the foot. The bamboo cages were soaked in oil, and then lit with fire, which turned into a big fireball, and then pushed down the hillside.

　　 When many Nagano feet waited to climb the second trench, what they saw before them was a scene of a dozen fireballs rolling down the mountain.

"what!"

　　 Many people screamed, their hands and feet were all covered by fireballs, they caught fire immediately, and they rolled on the ground to put them out. More people faced this, and they ran around to avoid them.

　　 Just as the Nagano family was evacuating, a dozen of these ‘fireballs’ rolled down from the mountain, and the Nagano army’s formation was in chaos. At the rear of the Takeda army's position, the Takeda family iron artillery team, which had refilled their guns, stood in three rows. Nearly a hundred iron cannons were aimed at the messy Nagano army, and a third round of salvo came.

　　嘣!

　　 Dozens of Nagano family feet rolled down the mountain again.

　　 At this time, the commanding general of the Nagano Army's Foot Light, even if the command is high, there is no way at this moment. The Nagano Army's Light Team has fallen into a chaotic situation.

　　 "You can prepare the Gunfoot Lights."

　　 Li Xiao saw that the tactics he designed had received very good results, and he was very satisfied. As for the Boko brothers, Suwa Lai Zhong, Suwa Lai Feng, and even the resourceful and resourceful Sanada Masao and Li Xiao's endless whimsical ideas were shocked.

　　 This Li Xiao's method is too much. Everyone thought so in their hearts.

　　 Takeda Katsuyoshi obeyed Li Xiao’s suggestion and ordered Masajo Poko’s spear feet to line up, and the archers stepped forward and pushed the baffle to the top of the trench, laying it as a bridge.

　　 "The Gunfoot Light Team is out."

　　 The five hundred gunmen of the Takeda Katsuyoshi team had been waiting for a long time, and they slammed down from the hillside with a loud shout.

The Nagano army, which was in chaos, barely reorganized its formation, but at the first touch, it was rushed to disperse by Takeda Katsuyoshi’s spear-footed light team. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is full of mountains and plains. .

　　 The Nagano Army also had soldiers who dared to fight. They wanted to try their best to bring this situation back. For example, the Ueno Sixteen Guns, the Nagano family’s Zuqing team leader, the Zuqing generals, and the attendants rushed to the Takeda Army without any orders. But before the three guns lined up by the Takeda army, the resistance of these people only caused a slight wave of waves, and then they were smashed.

　　 Many Azuchi generals in Nagano were condemned to death, the mountain in Ueno’s sixteen shots was full, and Shirakurazaemon Sohito died on the spot!

　　 So the Nagano family, known as the No. 1 family in West Ueno, was defeated. This defeat even spread to the Ueno family's army formation behind. Then the Ueno family's army was torn apart and collapsed without a fight.

　　 "Blow the conch, let's retreat." Li Xiaowei smiled and said.

　　 "But our army is pursuing and is in the first rank of the enemy army." Takeda Katsurai said hesitantly.

Masao Sanada shook his head, and pointed his finger at the five thousand Uesugi army on the opposite hill, which was still waiting: "Master Li Xiao is right. The main army of Huihu has not moved yet. If our army continues to pursue it, in case it gets caught by the opponent. Encircled and cut off by the military, you will fall into a heavy siege."

　　 "Damn it, if it weren't for the dragon of Echigo, I would have defeated the Ueno army with 800 troops today by Takeda Katsurai." Takeda Katsurai said this somewhat depressedly.

　　 Li Xiao said with a smile: "Our army has used hundreds of troops to kill the enemy force for a while, which is enough to shake Uesugi Huihu's spirit. Your Highness Shenglai, why bother anxious."

　　 Uesugi Army Honjin.

　　 Looking at the defeated Ueno coalition forces, Kenshin Uesugi suddenly stood up from the horse, and the general sent a wave to the Takeda Army Honjin.
