Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The spears are like a forest, the slowly marching military formation is like a stone grinder, any enemy who dares to block its progress is crushed to death, and the spears that are uniformly aligned in the sound of the agitated drums are suffocating, and the shooting of the archers is also suffocating, so that the heart of any enemy is cooled, and the will to fight back is lost. More and more Nizi soldiers, and even the samurai, began to retreat when they did not receive any retreat Mingjin, choosing to take refuge for the time being. The pikemen of the Date army were in hot pursuit, calmly slashing and slashing the enemy troops who fell behind, and often a hundred and ten spears could make more than ten Nizi soldiers fall in a pool of blood.

Zheng Heng watched the spear array slowly advance, and had already pushed away the antlers and wooden fences arranged at the front of the Nizi Army, and understood that the Nizi Army had fallen into the brink of total collapse, and as long as it worked harder, or if there was an accident, it would always collapse.

He glanced left and right, waved his arm, and then pointed to the location of the central army of the Nizi army in front of him, and shouted: "Soldiers, do you see that big tent, that is the big tent of the Chinese army of the old thief of Nizi, rush up and kill Nizi Qingjiu!" With that, with a finger in his hand, the royal cavalry around him picked up their weapons and rode on their horses, and began to lead more than a thousand soldiers in yellow cloaks to bypass the two wings of the spear formation, and began to gallop towards the Chinese army.

"Kill Niko Harumu!" "Kill Niko Harumu!" "Kill Niko Harumu!" Thousands of soldiers dressed in yellow shawls held sharp blades like yellow mudslides, and rushed towards the chaotic Nuzi army in an unstoppable shape.

The four-color flag that the Date family has always flaunted, among which the pro-soldier Ruishi wearing a yellow cloak is one of the yellow flags, and their flag is a dry yellow cloth with two big characters "Hachiman" written on it, and this banner is directly copied from Hojo Tsunari's Jihuang Hachiman.

"The Date family did their best!"

Ushio Yukiyo is not ignorant of the Date family's military system. Seeing the Date Army in a yellow cloak appear on the battlefield, he understood that the Date Army was about to deliver the final blow to the Nizi Army, how to do it, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He knew what to do, but he couldn't make this decision for a long time, and he had just gathered the cavalry. He knew that once he led the cavalry to break through, the 1,600 or 700 foot soldiers left behind would immediately collapse and die out.

Sashi Qingzong pulled the still stunned Ushio Yukiyo, and said in a crying voice: "It's not a pity for me to wait for death." The lord can't do anything, once something happens, even if we die a thousand times or ten thousand times, we can't offset our respective sins. ”

Kawabu Hisamori also said: "To put it mildly, once something happens to the lord, Izumo Province will immediately fall into a civil war, break through, right?" Break through! "The previous breakout used doubts. The latter breakthrough was affirmed, and it was clearly the same determination.

The two of them seem to be looking like they are doing it for Niko Haruhisa, but in the final analysis, they are still selfish, if it is really as they say, as long as one person stays to serve as the palace army, under the example of the public, there will inevitably be warriors who will come out to block the attack of the Date army.

The Japanese are notoriously brave and desperate. Once you talk about seppuku suicide, you will think of the national essence of the Wei people, and according to the habits of the Chinese, you will always think of the saying that everything foreign originates from China, and seppuku will also claim to have originated in China. In any case, what really made seppuku famous all over the world was the Japanese people.

Seppuku and the spirit of bushido are closely linked, and there are still many people who dare to fight and kill in the Warring States Period, and often use death to wash away their shame when they are defeated, such as Yamamoto Kansuke, a military master who is still alive and well.

It is not that the Nizi Army did not dare to serve as the palace army, but Nizi Qing's long-term illness and the selfishness of the public made the middle and lower-level retainers cold. Nobody came out on top. Just when the three of them were tugging endlessly, the Date Army had already defeated the former army that had already collapsed, and the soldiers were directly aimed at the Chinese army camp.

Tachihara Hisatsuna saw that the Date army was coming, and said hurriedly: "Everyone, the Date army has arrived. Please also break through now! ”

Saying that he pulled a majestic war horse, the Nizi family has countless resources, and the war horse has much more choice than the Date family's fighting room, and Tachihara Hisazuna has a war horse from the Ming Kingdom, and it has also aroused the envy of Nizi Chengjiu of the Shingu Party, and caused the "repelling horse thieves" incident.

Tachihara Hisatsuna carried Nizi Haruhisa onto the war horse, tied Nizi Haruhisa's body with a rope to prevent it from falling, the war horse was a little reluctant, and he was no longer restless under his appeasement, he himself changed into a war horse, looked around left and right, and said loudly: "Withdraw!" ”

Saying that, without asking everyone's opinions, he picked up Niko Haruhisa's war horse and fled in the direction of the back camp, and at that moment, Ushio Kokiyo, Sashi Kiyomune, and Kawabu Hisamori glanced at each other, as if relieved, and immediately ordered his subordinates to abandon the big camp and go straight to the back camp.

Seeing the fall of the banner of the Chinese army, the soldiers of the Date Army, who rushed to the front, immediately shouted loudly: "Nizi Qingjiu has run away!" Niko Haruku ran away! Niko Haruku ran away! "I heard that Nizi Qing had run away for a long time, and the soldiers of the Nizi Army looked back inexplicably, and sure enough, they saw that the banner of the Chinese army had arrived, and they also saw hundreds of cavalry leaving in the dust.

The Nizi Army, which was on the verge of collapse, began to be in chaos the moment they saw Nizi Harumu abandon them and leave, which soon turned into a large-scale riot, coupled with the fierceness of the Date Army's offensive, and the more than 1,000 Nizi Army that were abandoned completely collapsed.

At that time, for most daimyos, ashigaru tended to be a soldier and a farmer, rather than being strictly at the bottom of the samurai class, as the Edo shogunate did. Since the Battle of Yamashiro in Yoshida County and the Battle of Tsukiyama Tomita Castle, Niko Haruhisa saw the shortcomings of the Ashigaru system and began to train the standing army, but these standing armies were quickly controlled and replaced by the Shingu Party. There were only a very small number of standing troops in the army he brought with him this time, and the rest were mostly composed of ground servants, and their combat effectiveness was only inferior to that of the Date army.

The reasons for the repeated defeats of the Nizi army are: first, the Ita army has a great victory over the Maori Yuan, and the morale is high; The Nizi army suffered losses in the battle of Washiyama Castle, and their morale was not high because of their excessive contempt for the defeat of both Shozh Upper Niho Castle and Masaki Castle, and they were even more depressed and even panicked. Second, the Nizi Army originally had an absolute advantage in numbers, with a total strength of 30,000 before the division of troops, but once the troops were divided, the advantage in strength was gone, so that the Date Army could deal with it calmly.

The sky gradually darkened, and the Date army came out of Ryonomiya Mountain Castle at the end of the day, and after a great battle with Matsuda Seiho on the banks of the Sunagawa River, he came to Oya at the beginning of the year, and the morale was strong, but the body was already unbearable, especially the soldiers in iron armor were exhausted.

It was originally an earth-shattering battlefield, but now it was a dead silence, only three or four ashigaru men armed with spears walked on the blood-stained ground, using the tips of their spears to knock over the corpses of the enemy, but anyone who wailed and breathed a sigh would come forward to make up for it with a knife and a shot.

In the moment of the total collapse, the victory was decided, most of the foot soldiers of the Nizi army were not as lucky as their cavalry to escape, except for the two or three hundred cavalry who escaped, the remaining bows and arrows shot more than 300 under the service, and more than 200 died under the strong attack of the spear formation and the soldiers of his own soldiers, and the remaining 500 people became prisoners, as for the other missing people escaped, it has nothing to do with the overall situation.

Zheng Heng stood at the location of the original Nizi Qingjiu Chinese army, looked at the dust and smoke of the cavalry in the distance, and said lightly: "In this battle, Izumo suffered a lot of losses in the country, and it was not inferior to the two wars of the year, and I am afraid that the vitality will not be able to make up for it in five or six years." After Nizi Harumu went back, the Shingu Party would not let go of such a good opportunity to force the palace. ”

In the middle of the war, Zhengheng kept saying that he wanted to kill Nizi Qingjiu, but in fact, he had no interest in killing Nizi Qingjiu, and deliberately let Nizi Qingjiu go, otherwise, as long as he blocked the various mountain roads, how could he resist the defeat of two or three hundred remnants.

There was no schadenfreude in his tone, if the Shingu Party succeeded because of this, there needed to be a goal to divert the domestic grudge, and the Date family, who had just defeated Niko Harumu, was bound to become the candidate, which would be troublesome for him.

Ishikawa Hisataka saw that he had won a complete victory like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, he was in a good mood, and he listened to Zhengheng's words, quite agreed, looked at a "bobo" captive, and couldn't help asking, "What should I do with these people?" Is it to kill or ......"

Zheng Heng shook his head slightly and said: "None of the captives will be killed, and they will be sent back to Hecheng together with the rank and battle flag, and the captives will be sent to Tongshan for disposal. "There will be a large ransom for these captives.

Tachihara Hisatsuna took Niko Haruhisa all the way to run wildly, all the way, constantly looking back, he always felt unsteady, in the case of Otani's victory, Date Masahiro will inevitably send troops and horses to pursue, which is what he is most worried about. After escaping for a while, the sky was getting dark, and after reaching a small valley, he finally stopped, and rested breathlessly, and saw that the cavalry around him had fallen behind a lot, and only less than two hundred horsemen were still following, and the rest of the people did not know where to run.

Tachihara Hisatsuna listened to the direction of Otani with his ears, and the sound gradually disappeared, and he knew in his heart that the Nizi Army in Oya was completely finished, and he didn't know how many people could escape, sighing for a while, and suddenly heard a cough from Nizi Haruhisa.

It turned out that after a slight pause after a jolt, Niko Harumu came to her senses, and sat on a stone block with the support of Ushio Yukiyo and others, looking at the direction of Otani with a pale face, and said nothing.

After a while, Nizi Qingjiu said, "What should I do next?" ”
