Chapter Ninety-Six: Hand-to-Hand

"Ya γ‚’ζ”Ύ (ι–‹ι–€)"

With Tanigawa Masaharu's order, the archers let go of their right hands, and one after another arrows flashed with cold light and shot towards Yang Da Niu.

As early as when the archers were shooting arrows, the experienced Yang Da Niu put his body on the back of his horse, and raised a round shield with his left hand to protect his head and most of his torso.

"Aggressive ......"

A crisp crash was heard, and several arrows were fired at the shield and then bounced out, while the remaining arrows passed by him.

"をーチェγƒͺγƒΌγ‚’ηΆšγ‘γ‚‹ (Continue shooting)"

Seeing that the first round of archery failed, Tanigawa Masaharu was not surprised, he coldly looked at the war horse that was getting closer and closer, and gave an order.

"Aggressive ......"

The second round of archery was much more accurate than the first round, and two arrows accurately hit Yang Daniu. Because the Japanese prefer to use bamboo bows, this kind of bow is mainly made of bamboo and wood as the main material, the wood is generally oak wood, and a layer of bamboo is attached to the outside of the bow body, so it is called the bamboo bow, the square bamboo bow, this kind of bow is characterized by high accuracy, but the range is short and the power is small, the two arrows were immediately bounced off by the armor on his body after shooting Yang Da Niu, and did not cause him any damage.

Seeing that the bow and arrow did not cause harm to the comer, and that the comer had rushed to a distance of less than thirty meters from them, Tanigawa Masaharu's face became even colder. With a wave of his hand, the archers began to retreat, and more than a dozen pikemen quickly leaned together and crouched down, the spears in their hands pointed directly at the incoming people, and the barrels of the spears were stuck in the ground and watched the people on the opposite side rush towards them, many of the pikemen had a sinister smile on their faces, and they waited for the cavalryman to crash into this group of guns and be dressed as a blood gourd.

However, these would-be robbers are too underestimating Yang Da Niu, how can it be so simple to serve as a person who does not collect money at night in the Guanning army. When he rushed to a distance of more than 20 meters from the Japanese Kou, he raised his handcuff (short-handled three-eyed gun) and pointed forward and pulled the trigger, and then he only felt a shock to his wrist, and with a loud bang, an archer who retreated behind the pikemen and was about to reopen the bow and shoot arrows immediately opened a thumb-thick hole in his chest, and then the whole person was knocked several meters away under the action of the huge impact, and finally fell heavily to the ground, blood kept gushing out of his mouth, and it seemed that he could not live.

At the same time as the fire was fired, Yang Da Niu also pulled the reins of the horse, and the war horse began to turn to the left, but due to the huge inertia, the war horse still ran more than ten meters in front of Chaohu before it could be turned to completion, and the war horse almost hit the spear array of the Japanese Kou. Seeing that the other party was about to swagger away from their battle formation, several pikemen were also angry, and stood up under the order of one of the leading pikes, listening to the spear about to stab at Yang Daniu, but unexpectedly heard a crisp sound of "bang", accompanied by a puff of black smoke rising, and a pikeman in front of him turned around in place several times, and finally fell to the ground like a heavy sack.

Seeing that half of the neck of his companion who fell to the ground was knocked off, blood spurted out like a fountain, and because he was not killed on the spot, his whole person twitched a few times from time to time like a fish on the chopping board but not dead, which looked very terrifying, and also made the Japanese around him feel cold in his heart.

These things are very long, in fact, they are only a few tens of seconds, seeing that the other party has not hurt himself but has been killed by two people, Tanigawa Yaqing was so angry that he shouted, only to see him holding his sword high and yelling: "Baga...... Arrows...... Hurry up and ...... arrows"

"Whoosh ......"

Several archers who had retreated behind the pikemen hurriedly opened their bows and shot towards Yang Da Niu, but in a hurry, there were not many accurate heads, and the number of archers was too small, most of the scattered arrows swept past Yang Da Niu's side, and only two of them hit the armor behind Yang Da Niu, flashing a faint spark and then being bounced off by the plate armor cast of stainless steel.

When Yang Da Niu ran back to his formation, the war horse under his crotch was so tired that he kept exhaling hot breath, and when he saw Yang Da Niu coming back, the cavalry who could really see it behind him greeted him.

Yang Da Niu ignored the war horse that was spitting hot air under his crotch, but asked his companion with a solemn face: "See, this is the true strength of this group of thieves, but you ask yourself if you can easily annihilate those thieves if you go up." ”

"This ......"

Now the cavalry stopped talking, they could see the battle situation just now clearly, Yang Daniu's attack just now can be said to be smooth and smooth, and none of them can do it so smoothly. But even so, the impact just now was so dangerous, if it weren't for Yang Daniu's superb riding skills and the protection of the armor on his body, I'm afraid he would be the one who fell there now.

And those wouldn't have been as they thought they would have scattered when they saw the cavalry coming, their tenacity was much more than everyone expected, if they had launched a collective charge just now, they might have achieved a lot more gains, but it is certain that their casualties were definitely not small. This battle was also the first battle they had seen in their first army, and it was very different from what they had imagined, and their enemies were more tenacious than they had imagined.

Yang Daniu said sharply: "You all remember, we are now at war, not on the school field of Qianhusuo. These are just some ragged and poorly equipped thieves, even so they are already so tenacious, if you encounter ten times more ferocious than these thieves in the future, wearing heavy armor and stubborn Houjin Iron Cavalry, if you still have a heart to look down on, there is only a dead end waiting for you, do you understand? ”

"Got it!"

It is said that the battlefield is the best teacher, when these rookies saw this scene with their own eyes, they had an intuitive understanding of the cruelty of the battlefield, and they often broke their hands and feet and even died in Huangquan, this is the battlefield.

"Everyone has seen the strength of the thieves, and now you still think that it only takes one charge to kill them all on the spot?"

"Okay, since you all have nothing to say, now all of you obey my orders, and everyone will return immediately and report the matter to Lord Qianhe...... Walk ......"

Amid the sound of horses' hooves, a group of people headed back the way they came.

And hundreds of meters away, Tanigawa Yaqing's face was also cloudy and uncertain when he looked at the departing cavalry, just now it was the cavalry's charge that took the lives of two of his subordinates, this cavalry's superb riding skills and martial arts also greatly surprised him, is this the real strength of the Ming army, where did this cavalry come from? How many of them are there?

Questions lingered in his mind, and at last he decided to report it to Lady Erectus at once, and under his order the group immediately turned and went in the other direction, and the women and things lying on the ground were too hasty to take them......
