Chapter 23 Iron Cannon Master Wise Guangxiu, 50 monthly ticket plus more
The Maruki bow is really not very lethal, unless it is particularly bad luck, and the arrow shot by the Maruki bow is inserted into the absolutely fatal vital point on his body, and the distance of the arrow must be very close, otherwise there is no lethality.
When we watch movies or film and television dramas in the Wa Kingdom, after a rain of arrows, a samurai has dozens of arrows stuck in his body and becomes like a big hedgehog, but it is not impossible to continue to run forward as if nothing happened, as long as the situation is in line, it will completely appear.
The Maruki bow was not lethal, but Takeda Motomitsu organized such a 100-strong Maruki bow team, and through their continuous pouring of their bows and arrows against the Oda family's army, it was also very effective in hindering the Oda family's army from attacking.
Takeda Motomitsu had been at Kuroda's house for a long time, so he knew very well the importance of long-range strike means for a war to fight. The effect of the Maruki bow is not very good, but the combat power of the soldiers of the Oda family, especially the soldiers of the wealthy family and the country, is not enough to offset the momentum of the Maruki bow.
So now that he has made meritorious service in Grosso, no, it is the long-range brigade that has made meritorious service, Takeda Motomitsu is no longer particularly anxious, because he knows very well that at present, he needs to do the task, that is, before Takatomo Musato and the Kuroda family army come here to form an encirclement of the opponent, he can drag down the Oda family's team as much as possible.
As long as Takeda Motomitsu can lead this miscellaneous army under his command to crucify the Oda family's team here, and after Musato Takatomo appears here, he and Musato Takatomo's army will be able to defeat the Oda family's army by attacking inside and outside, and his own goal of reviving the Takeda family in Wakasa Province will be a big step forward.
This time, the unhurried attitude of the Kuroda family made Akechi Mitsuhide anxious. Wise Guangxiu, who had always been gentle and elegant, felt weak like a Confucian student, but was kind to him, paced left and right at this time, and after finally stomping his feet, he actually picked up his beloved iron cannon and walked quickly to the front of the entire military formation.
At this time, Takeda Motomitsu was directing the battle on the walls of Nosaka Castle, and the target of Akechi Mitsuhide was Takeda Motomitsu, who was the general of the Kuroda family. Wise Mitsuhide can be said to have lost his assertiveness, and in the chaos, he thought of the current method, that is, the way to capture the thief and capture the king first. As long as he can kill the leader of the Kuroda family, the Kuroda family samurai Takeda Motomitsu, whose name he does not know, can disintegrate the army of Nosaka Castle.
I saw Akechi Mitsuhide striding out of the shogunate's main camp and coming to the outside of Nosaka Castle, stopping at a distance that had just entered the firing range and would not be noticed, mingling in the crowd, holding his iron cannon flat, aiming at Takeda Motomitsu. He didn't shoot right away, because he needed to calm his mind and find the best way to shoot.
Akechi Mitsuhide is still in the shadows, and Takeda Motomitsu didn't notice that someone was aiming at him with a sharp long-range weapon, so Akechi Mitsuhide didn't worry about being discovered at all. It can be shown that Tomotsusu is now a sniper in the Azuchi-Momoyama period, and he is about to perform one of his own snipers.
"Bang" Akechi Mitsuhide finally found a good time, Takeda Motomitsu's entire front was facing him, and he was unprepared, just holding his own katana, commanding his corporal to resist the attack of the Oda family's side. Akechi Mitsuhide took a deep breath and decisively pulled the trigger, and a bullet shot at Takeda Motomitsu like a meteor catching the moon.
Akechi Mitsuhide's bullet did hit, but unfortunately it was not Takeda Motomitsu who hit. It was just a soldier of a wealthy family next to him who was shot. It was a peasant soldier dressed in tatters, and it wasn't what Akechi Mitsuhide had in mind at all.
But to be honest, the distance between the two sides has been nearly seventy or eighty paces, and at such a distance, Akechi Mitsuhide only uses the most ordinary iron cannon, not the Kuroda family's improved Ming Guo firecracker, he can shoot and hit a target at such a distance, in fact, it is already very difficult, and he can't be harsh more.
Akechi Mitsuhide himself is indeed an iron cannon expert, he is very good at using iron cannons to attack, and the accuracy is not bad, if it is just sixty steps away, he can definitely kill Takeda Motomitsu, but he only has one chance, and if he misses it, it is impossible to have it again.
A soldier had just died in front of him, and after Takeda Motomitsu looked at the wound, he knew that the enemy had an iron cannon, and he was very careful now.
Akechi Mitsuhide is an elegant person, although he also has very strong martial arts, but he doesn't like to kill people with a knife, and that kind of bloody way of killing people is not his liking. Even if it was to kill someone, he was pursuing a more elegant way.
After seeing the peasant soldier who fell beside him, combined with the sound of an iron cannon that suddenly appeared on the battlefield just now, Wu Tianyuanguang finally knew what had just happened.
It turned out that someone wanted to snipe himself by using an iron cannon just now, thanks to the distance between himself and the other party, and the enemy did not have the iron cannon of the Black Iron Family, otherwise he would probably have died in this place just now.
Now Wu Tian Yuanguang is still a little afraid in his heart, he has just embarked on his own road to fame, in the Kuroda family, it is about to be possible to have his own place, he feels that he can't yet, he still has a lot of things to do, his father's revenge is still waiting for him to revenge, he also hopes to be able to regain a piece of land in Wakasa Country, so that the world knows the name of his Wakasa Country Takeda Family.
However, as the chief general of the Kuroda family, he must also be at the forefront, otherwise, how could other wealthy families and countrymen fight hard for the Kuroda family?
Even if he was standing here as a mascot, he couldn't leave, so knowing that he would be in danger now, he still stood on the front line, but he would pay more attention to the other party's movements, especially after he saw Akechi Mitsuhide standing opposite with an iron cannon.
At this time, a native of Wakasa Province stood up, and he took the initiative to come to Akechi Mitsuhide, and told Akechi Mitsuhide that in addition to this, there was another passage to leave Wakasa Country and return to the territory of the Oda family, and this person was Kumagai Naoyuki.
This Kumagai Naoyuki is a powerful family in Wakasa Province, and he is also a powerful figure under the command of the Takeda family before, and was once known as one of the four heavenly kings of Wakasa Province.
