Chapter 452: Elite Duel (8)
And the Takayama clan is also dispatching troops at this moment, whether it can repel the enemy army and break out of the encirclement' depends on this blow, at the same time as Matsunaga Shu gave the order, the Takayama clan also immediately ordered: "Wasuka Masakatsu, Mizuse Uemon, quickly go to support the rear army, and defeat it no matter what." ”
"It's the lord, the ninja army obeys the order, and I will repel the enemy behind me quickly!" After speaking, I saw that Wasuka Masakatsu and Mizuse Uemon led the remaining more than 200 ninjas to support.
"Look, my lord, the enemy is sending reinforcements behind our army again." Omiya Jing couldn't help but feel very anxious when he saw that his family's army had been fighting with the enemy for a long time, but his subordinate Chongfu Bow Ashigaru had not received any task, so he hurriedly applied: "Lord, my subordinates are willing to lead the army under his command to step forward to stop the enemy." ”
"The subordinates are also willing to go, and the subordinates promise not to let any enemy soldiers pass, and ask the lord for approval." Sugitani Zenjubo also hurriedly said.
In this battle, in addition to Shigeto Bow Ashigaru, only the iron cannon Ashigaru under his own suffered the smallest loss, and the battle with the enemy was the shortest, and the battle with Oka Kunigaka just now only made the iron cannon Ashigaru under his command lose less than twenty people, and now there is still the strength of a battle.
Seeing that both of them applied to fight, the clan couldn't help but think that there were not many troops mobilized by the enemy, and if the enemy was allowed to fight, then I am afraid that it would only take one or two rounds of salvos to defeat the enemy, which would not only reduce losses, but also hit the enemy's morale, and if the iron cannon would go into battle, I am afraid that it would inevitably be entangled with the enemy. Only in this way can you have any hope of survival.
Thinking of this, he only heard the clan sect speak: "Ogong Jinglian, you immediately lead your subordinates to intercept the enemy. ”
"Yes, rest assured that the lord will live up to the trust of the lord." Takayama Tomoteru had already led two hundred troops to the side of the Takayama Army at this time, because Omiya Keiren and his 100 heavy vine bows and ashigaru had just joined the Takayama family, although Takayama Tomoteru had just vaguely seen the longbow in the other party's hand, but he only thought that the other party was just an ordinary bow ashigaru, so he only kept a distance of about 100 meters from the high ground where the Takayama clan was located.
And Omiya Keiren couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this, because he had already lined up the formation just now, so when they went down to the high ground, the formation did not become scattered, and when Shigeto Yushigaru reached a distance of more than 50 meters on the side of the Matsunaga army, Takayama Yuzhao saw that the rear army was in a critical situation, so he did not plan to entangle with these bowshigaru who were not high in combat power, as long as the other party did not close the distance to thirty meters, he would not take the initiative to attack.
Gao Shan Youzhao now wants to help the rear army and cut off the retreat of the Gao Mountain Army, but it is the Gao Shan family who he looks down on who is starting to make trouble at this moment.
After they were ready, they only heard Omiya Jinglian shouting: "Release the arrows!" ”
After hearing the enemy's order, Takayama Yuteru couldn't help but laugh, now that he was fifty or sixty meters away from them, wouldn't it be a waste of arrows to release arrows at such a distance, could it be that the samurai in command was crazy.
But when he was halfway through his laugh, he couldn't laugh anymore, and the arrows fired by the other party could not only shoot over, but also kill people.
And the Matsunaga family's Ashigaru at the beginning, as Takayama Yu thought, at such a distance, the bow and arrow in the enemy's hand must not be able to shoot, so they were not prepared at all, and when the sharp arrow had been shot, even if they wanted to resist again, it was no longer in a hurry.
As the sharp arrows fell, countless screams were heard from the Matsunaga army. …,
After a round of arrow rain, nearly one percent of the ashigaru fell to the ground, and Omiya Keiren was very dissatisfied with this achievement, if it wasn't too dark, I am afraid that there would only be one salvo, and the casualties caused to the enemy would be much more.
And Takayama Yuzhao saw that the bow and arrow in the enemy's hand could still be so powerful when it could shoot at a distance of sixty meters, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, what did they use? As far as I know, the only bows in the world that can shoot such a distance are the heavy vine bow and the phase bow, but if you want to use this kind of bow, then you must have extraordinary arm strength, if it is a samurai who shoots arrows with this bow, he is not very strange, but if you let Ashigaru use this bow, it will be a bit too exaggerated, right, where did the Takayama clan dig up these ashigaru with extraordinary arm strength?
Not to mention anything else, just with these light arm strength, if you go to the small power, then not to mention his background, at least in terms of ability, he is already qualified to become a samurai.
Before this, Takayama Yuzhao thought that the elite ashigaru of the Matsunaga family's army could already be equal to the Takayama army in terms of combat power, but after the enemy dozens of meters away released his arrows, he realized that his family's army was far worse than the elite of the Takayama family.
And just when he was stunned, he only heard the big palace Jinglian not far away open his mouth and ordered: "Release the arrow!" ”
And when the sound of hundreds of sharp arrows mixed with the sound of breaking the sky struck again, Takayama Yuteru and his subordinate Ashigaru had also recovered from the shock.
I saw that he used the spear in his hand to pull away the arrows that were shooting at him, and at the same time commanded loudly: "Quick, attack quickly, kill these bows!" Fast! ”
After receiving the order, the troops under his command began to rush in the direction of Omiya Jinglian with spears in hand
Omiya Jinglian didn't care about the more than 100 enemies in front of him at all, but he still commanded his subordinates to continue to release arrows, and the enemy had just rushed forward a few steps, and saw that the other party had already shot another arrow, so they retreated one after another.
"Don't retreat, hold me down, charge me, as long as you can rush in front of the enemy, they won't have the combat power, charge me." No matter how he shouted, the ashigaru under his command was still retreating, if it weren't for the fact that they were elites, Takayama Yuteru would have killed one or two people to correct military discipline.
And because Ashigaru retreated one after another, Takayama Yuzhao was already exposed to the front of the team, and on the opposite side of the Omiya Jingren could vaguely see the enemy on the horse in front of him by the moonlight, although he couldn't see the other party's clothes clearly, but he was the only one in the enemy army on the horse, so he didn't need to ask and knew that this person must be a leading samurai, if he could be shot, I am afraid that the enemy in front of him would definitely retreat, so that he could complete the task earlier and go to the place where he needed him more.
Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate, but saw him take out a sharp arrow from the quiver and put it on the bow. A moment later, he let go of his hand, and the sharp arrow went straight for the enemy.
And after Omiya Jingren made a move, the heavy vine bow next to him also followed and shot an arrow at Takayama Yusaki.
It stands to reason that under these hundred sharp arrows, even if Takayama Yuzhao is not shot into a hedgehog, he will definitely die on this, but things are often unexpected, at the critical moment when Omiya Jinglian and raised his hand, Takayama Yuzhao saw that the army had begun to retreat, and it was obviously impossible to rush over, so he wanted to lead the army out of the enemy's range, and then go to the rear army to rescue, so that he would no longer have to entangle with these bows.
Thinking of this, he ran backwards on his side horse, trying to stabilize the general situation first, but when he hadn't run five meters away, the land he was on just now had been nailed with sharp arrows.
Seeing this, Takayama Yuzhao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, if he was too late, he would be shot into a sieve by the sharp arrows shot by the enemy. …,
And when he escaped this catastrophe, he didn't dare to stay any longer, and hurriedly rushed towards the ashigaru team with a horse's belly.
He knew that the reason why he was lucky to win a catastrophe this time was because of good luck, and because the enemy's archery was too accurate, as long as a few arrows were two or three meters behind, even if he didn't die, he would probably be injured, but he knew that the shooting distance of the heavy vine bow was not only fifty or sixty meters away.
And when Omiya Jingren saw that the other party had unexpectedly escaped from his arrow, he couldn't help but be furious, and only heard him order loudly: "Shigeto Bow Foot obeys the order, although he stepped forward to continue to attack the enemy." ”
If Shigeto didn't chase after him, then Takayama Tomoteru might still be able to stabilize the general outside his range, but the more than 100 people of the Matsunaga family saw those bows and feet chasing after them, so they didn't dare to stop at all, and rushed all the way in the direction of the army where Oka Kunitaka was.
And Omiya Jingren saw that the enemy's army had merged into one, so he no longer continued to pursue, and immediately led the army back, so as not to let the enemy rush over.
A few hundred meters behind the high ground where the Takayama clan is located, Takayama You, who was fighting against the Takayama family ninja army, had just stabilized the position under the surprise attack of fifty ninjas, but at this moment, Wasuka Masakatsu and Mizuse Uemon led the remaining ninja army to kill from the side, and with the arrival of the ninja army, the Matsunaga army, which had finally calmed down, began to chaos again.
This time, they didn't give Takayama any chance to straighten out, and as soon as the ninja army led by Wasuka Masakatsu arrived, they fled directly towards Matsunaga Hidekata.
Gao Shanyou saw that the army under his command had been defeated, so he had to retreat impatiently.
However, after defeating the reinforcements led by Takayama Yuteru, the 100 heavy vines led by Omiya Keiren did not leave, but retreated to the high ground, waiting to rob the rear army led by Takayama Youjin.
As soon as he retreated to the high ground, he saw that the enemy had already retreated, but because the retreating enemy did not have any formation at all, it was not easy to return the enemy and inflict heavy losses.
Seeing this, Omiya Keiren did not immediately order his troops to shoot arrows at the enemy who had just entered the firing range, but he wanted to wait for the enemy to get closer, so that even if the enemy team was scattered, it would cause him a lot of losses, and he was not afraid that putting the enemy too close would be detrimental to himself, anyway, the enemy in front of him was not only demoralized, but also exhausted, so he concluded that after releasing the arrows, the enemy would definitely continue to disperse, and he would definitely not have the courage to rush over.
