Samurai of the Takeda Family

With the sound of the horn, Takeda Katsura’s five-hundred spear-foot team has returned to the hillside, returned to their respective posts, and re-arranged into a formation. The flares laid on the trenches were also destroyed. Take it back and put it back.

　　 The Takeda Army has returned to the position it had been waiting for.

　　 Just now, the Nagano family suffered heavy losses. More than 300 bodies were left behind, more than 100 people were injured, and many generals died in battle. At the moment, the Nagano family’s army was defeated and returned to the original formation and re-rested. It is estimated that in a short while, it is impossible to return to the battlefield.

　　 On the other hand, Takeda Katsuyori only paid the price of a few minor injuries. This is an incredible victory.

　　 The battle that was thought to be extremely tragic, but under the various tactics of Yamamoto Kansuke and Li Xiao, they continued to resolve their disadvantages, but this battle continued until noon, and Takeda Katsura was not killed alone. This made it possible for the soldiers to die in the Takeda army this morning, and there was a glimmer of hope in my heart.

　　 "Uesugi Kenshin will never let our army get enough rest. The Uesugi family's army will go out below, and the next battle will be hard." Yamamoto Kansuke said to Takeda Katsura.

　　 Masao Sanada said: "Our army is not without a chance. If we persist until the night, I think of time to use the cover of night to retreat into Shirane Mountain."

　　 As soon as Masuko Sanada said this, hope arose in everyone's eyes.

Tonight is a new moon, and it must be completely dark at night. If a melee is purely fishing in troubled waters, the chances of both sides killing their own people are greater than the chances of killing the enemy. If the torch is lighted, the lighting is fine, but it will immediately become a cannon and a bow and arrow. The hand's sniper target is purely seeking a dead end.

　　 Uesugi Kenshin 90% would not take this risk and engage in a night battle with the Takeda army.

　　 But will Uesugi Kenshin give them this opportunity? Will they keep them till the night? At this moment, the Taiko drum of the Echigo Army's Honjin rang.

　　 A row of black-clothed and black-armored Echigo troops flooded like a tide, and finally came out.

　　 "The Iron Cannon Team entered the trench."

　　 "Preparation for the Bow Foot Light Team."

The iron cannon squatted back into the trenches again. Many people dropped the bamboo shoulder guards on their shoulders, the small sleeves on the arms, and the caged hands on the wrists. The purpose was to be more flexible and improve some negligible iron. Gun loading speed.

　　 The iron cannon began to clear its chamber lightly, and carefully loaded the gunpowder and projectiles, crushed them with a push rod, and installed the match rope. Only four times on average, each iron cannon has been fired four times. In terms of the service life of iron cannons in this era, it is easy to explode if they fire five to six consecutive times in a battle.

　　 But it doesn't matter anymore, the bombing and being cut to the head by the Echigo Army, the two results are the same.

　　 "Guess that when the Echief Army is coming, which wing will attack our army first?" Li Xiao took advantage of the gap between the Echief Army's mobilization, and actually chatted with Masao Sanada in a leisurely manner.

　　 Although it is no longer Sanada's first battle, Sanada's heart is never as calm as it seems to be on the surface.

　　 Facing Li Xiao’s question, he thought for a while and said, “It should be a breakthrough from the left. Although the **** here is a bit steep, our army’s deployment here is weak.”

　　 Li Xiao laughed, shook his head and said, "No, I bet you, the Echigo Army will definitely break through from the center."

　　 "Why?" Masayuki Sanada is not a blind follower.

"Because the opponent's commander is the Kakizaki Kei family. When I was on Kawasaka Island, I learned about him. This person is the number one general in Echigo. He is also the number one arrogant and arrogant. Break through, and then take the team straight."

　　 When Li Xiao and Masayuki Sanada spoke, the iron cannons in the first row of trenches had already opened fire.

　　 The huge roar of platoon guns fired, and the iron gun group head observed the shooting results. Obviously, the Echihou army was not a god, and like the Nagano army, the opponent's gun was lightly shot by the iron cannon, and a piece of it fell.

　　 Boom!

　　 The iron cannon in the second trench also fired lightly.

　　 After two iron cannon shots, the Echigo Army began to charge up the hillside. Their goal was to strive for the Takeda family's iron cannons to be light, and to shoot the second row of guns to the front of the trenches to minimize the casualties caused by the iron cannons. However, the **** of the hillside, and the corpses of the former Nagano army that were scattered everywhere, hindered their advancement speed.

　　 After the shield, Takeda Katsuyori's bow and foot are ready at this time.

"shoot!"

　　 With the vibration of the bowstring, the dense arrows draw a parabola and strike a covering blow towards the Echigo Army who is going up the mountain.

　　 But compared with the Nagano Army, the armor on the Echigo Army's body is obviously much more reliable in terms of thickness and texture. You can often see the sturdy Echigo samurai with several arrows hitting his body, still charging up the mountain without incident.

　　 The charge of the Echigo Army was obviously much faster than that of the Nagano Army. As a result, the Echigo Army would soon approach the trench, and the Takeda’s iron artillery team had no chance to shoot the second row. Li Xiao made a decisive decision and immediately ordered people to light the remaining twenty bamboo cages and then push them down the mountain together. The iron cannon in front of the position was lightly hiding in the trench, and there was no need to worry about the fireball in the bamboo cage that could burn him. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

　　 Facing the replay of Takeda Army’s old tricks, the front row had been prepared for a long time, and a row of long spears was directly erected to pick and block the fly roll down the mangosteen cage. Then a few long spears furiously pulled, or a katana sword was used to chop, and the bamboo cage was destroyed.

　　 But this time delay is enough, the iron cannons of the Takeda family are light enough to be loaded.

　　 The iron cannon roared, and a cloud of smoke rose from the top of the trench. The Takeda family's iron cannon fired a second row of guns. After that, it quickly retreated from the trench to the rear of the Takeda army position.

　　 The Echigo Army's formation was not scattered by the volley of firearms. They lined up in a dense formation and marched up the mountain. They filled in two trenches with wooden planks along the way, and then launched a charge.

　　 Takeda Katsuyai immediately ordered the arched foot to retreat to the rear, and then the Takeda family's spear was light, and the spear was also put down.

　　 "Get out."

　　The Takeda Army Gunnery lowered the towering spear like a forest, trot to face the enemy, and then fought with the Echigo Army Gunnery who charged up the mountain.

　　 The three gun formations of the Takeda Army, at this moment, are facing the gun formations of the Echigo Army. The two sides used each other's spears to stab and flick each other, not giving way to each other.

The Takeda Army’s spears are light. When training with three guns, they usually use groups of three. One person specializes in blocking the opponent’s long spear. Flick the opponent's head.

　　 In this way, every three guns are light enough, and they are responsible for three different responsibilities: attack, defense, and flanking.

　　 And the Echihou Army also has its own way of cooperating. In general, they have to attack the mountain, and the Echihou Army still suffers a little loss. However, the victory of the Echigo Army was superior in numbers, and the troops continued to press on, and the gun formation of the Takeda Army retreated bit by bit.
