Pillars of the Wu family

Chapter 111 The Terrifying Three Good Army

At dawn on August [-]th, the [-] cavalry troops belonging to Shihe Yicun pulled out their camp. The Kira family on the other side of the river got the information first, and ordered the navy to wait with the retreating [-] troops on the evening of the previous day. The requirement is that they must land in Tobabara at noon, and the soldiers have not been recruited again, and they will not be needed regardless of whether they win or lose this battle.

When the first ray of sunlight fell in the morning, the Miyoshi Army began to cross the river. The dense ships on the river shuttled one after another. The [-] troops crossed the river one by one. The first is the Miyoshi Army and other countries dominated by Settsu and Izumi, the allied army of the Hatakeyama family is the third, and the last is the two thousand Yamashiro people of Ise Sadaka.

Corresponding to the massive landing of the Miyoshi family, the Kira Army also took countermeasures at the same time. The [-] army pulled out the camp and the whole army lined up. There are many valleys at the foot of Fushimi Momoyama. The most famous place is the Heian era Jin The Mausoleum of the Tomorrow Emperor is the Mausoleum of the Tomb of the Tomorrow. Around the Mausoleum of the Mausoleum of the Mausoleum of the Tomb of the Emperor, there are dozens of valleys, large and small.

The whole mountain and Inari Mountain in the north form a semi-arc with a large angle, like the two wings of a white crane. The southern wings are Fushimi Momoyama, and the northern wings are Inari Mountain. In the area of ​​Fushimi Toba, [-] troops along the mountain were successively connected into a fish-scale formation layered on top of each other. This formation is known for its strong defense and is the preferred formation for offensive battles.

At ten o'clock in the morning, most of the Miyoshi family's army had already crossed the Kamo River and lined up. The military taiko drums beat like thunder, and everyone's breathing and heartbeat merged with the thunderous taiko drums unconsciously. The flag of Lingwuding is erected high, and at the same time there is a flag of cypress fan flying high. The former is the family crest of Miyoshi's family, and the latter is the family crest of Shihe Yicun, who is wearing capital letters. Riding a magnificent Austrian horse quietly staring at the flying flags in the distance.

"I am ordered by Sanzhu to go to Gyeonggi. This battle aims to defeat the shogunate army and attack Mount Nakao! Gentlemen, we will surely win!"

"We will surely win!" Thousands of troops roared and all horses were silent, with an astonishing momentum.

On Fushimi Mountain, Kira's main camp, hearing the warm cheers erupting from the Miyoshi Army on Tobabara, everyone felt tense for a while.

"When will the sailors arrive?"

Tokiyuki Yamamoto replied: "The information from half an hour ago has already entered the mouth of Kamogawa."

The Miyoshi army was obviously still waiting for the last batch of troops to cross the river. At this time, there was a sudden burst of shouts in the Sanhao family's main formation: "Look! Whose boat is that?"

I saw fifteen Guan boats killed from the Yodo River in the south and took dozens of Xiaozao outside. Each of the Guan boats flew this Ashikaga Two Uchiba and two flags. These return boats that ran through the Kamo River were nothing more than a salvo. The dense sound of iron cannons shocked everyone like thunder, and the screams and wailings on the river were endless.

Seeing that something was wrong, the other returning boats quickly turned their bows and headed north to escape. There were still two thousand mountain townsmen on the west bank who were isolated on the other side of the river. It became disorganized, and Shihe Yicun yelled repeatedly to rectify the army, and found that the military taiko drum had stopped at some point, and immediately shouted: "I can't wait anymore! Beat the drum for me to organize the army! Go out immediately!"

"Yes! Beat the drum! Let's go!" More than a dozen riders galloped around and passed on Shihe Yicun's general order, but after a while the army taiko drum sounded again, Shihe Yicun led a horse and rushed to the front, shouting: "But there is someone who wants to kill Kira Those who are righteous will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold and five thousand stones for knowing and doing!"

"Ha!" Ashgaru, with the three-tier Rhizoba five-nail 抜 flag and the public cypress fan flag on his back, raised the long handle in his hand and roared to charge towards the opposing army formation.

"Order Saijobei and Chibei to strictly guard the two wings, and never allow the Miyoshi Army to break through!"

"Yes!" The people on the side got on their horses and spread the passwords.

The Kira Army's main formation, Ashikaga Erin, with two banners, wearing a smoked Ziwei majestic pill, Ji Liangyi sat in the formation and looked at the tide-like army at the foot of the mountain, and sighed: "This is the only way to go! Short-tailed survival Shihe Yicun really led 8000 people to attack the formation, it's up to you whether you can stop them!"

Tokiyuki Yamamoto wore a set of colorful prestige belly rolls, pointed to the water army that shuttled back and forth on the river to drive away the mountain castles on the west bank, and said: "Don't worry, Lord Master, the river has been blocked by the family, and the troop transport ship will come soon. There will be no problem."

Yamaoka Shichang, wearing a red suit, came to report: "The Miyoshi Army has begun to attack!"

Kira Yoshitoki frowned and asked, "Who will be the general in the first battle?"

"It's Takashima Uhei from Takashima Bei, and the second line behind him is Asami Daizenyo from Shiga Bei..." Yamamoto Tokiyuki quickly reported a list of names, these ashigaru generals followed him for more than two months, The name is already familiar.

"Pray for them!" Kira Yoshitoki held the military fan in his right hand, and the rosary wrapped around his left hand stretched all the way to his forearm. Praying before going out to battle is a tradition of the samurai family, but it has another meaning in his heart.

"It is all living beings who, when they are born and die, will gain great benefits and will never fall into the evil ways. If there is a dying person, family members, or even a person who is dying, recite a Buddha's name aloud for the sick person, and the dying person will get rid of the five inexhaustible Sins, the retribution of karma, etc. are all eliminated. Although the five inexhaustible crimes are extremely serious, they will be unrecognizable after hundreds of millions of kalpas. What's more, all living beings claim to think of themselves, gain immeasurable blessings, and eliminate immeasurable crimes."

Watching Yoshiki Kira silently recite the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Fundamental Vow Sutra" with a rosary in hand, Kansuke Yamamoto stood up and issued an order: "Beat the drums! All the troops are ready to fight!"

"Boom, boom, boom..." A huge drum sounded, and the originally chaotic army formation was gradually consolidated, and the generals who were all ready to fight shouted: "Fight!"

"Fire arrows!"

There was a "buzzing" bowstring trembling sound, and the dark arrows were like dense locusts, cutting through the sky with a sharp whistling sound, and falling towards the Miyoshi army who rushed over, the screams from time to time did not stop The rhythm of Miyoshi's army's attack is chaotic.

Standing at the forefront of Kira's army formation, Takashima Youhei faced the charging Miyoshi army, turned around and raised the sickle gun in his hand, and shouted: "Remember your oath! Everyone follow me to recite! May the gods and Buddhas bless me Defeat Sanzhu, protect the soil and the countryside!"

The farmers and soldiers in Omi raised their long handles and shouted frantically at the charging Miyoshi army: "May the gods and Buddhas bless me to defeat Sanzhu and protect the soil and the countryside!"

Teams of Miyoshi ashigaru with their backs in disorder and leaning on the flag rushed forward like pigs. The roar of bows and arrows trembled from time to time. With the dull sound of breaking leather, there will always be a few people who fall to the ground without saying a word.

"It's time to fight! The opponent is the people of Settsu and Izumi!" There was a commotion below, and the black Miyoshi army collided with the red Kira army. Omi's samurai relied entirely on the bravery of blood and the number of powerful enemies far superior to their own.

Although the number of Setjin and Iquan people in the first formation of the Miyoshi Army is only [-], these people are the first to follow Miyoshi Changqing and experience the battles of Taiping Temple and Relic Temple. Both the morale and combat effectiveness are quite high It's not bad, but Omi's reserve team has only trained for a few months, no matter how it compares, it is a few chips behind the enemy.

Omi's reserve team was almost broken through several huge cracks in just a few minutes, and the formation disintegrated into several small pieces, which were gradually eaten away by the blue-black torrent. However, in the case of disparity in the strength of the enemy and ourselves, many Omi samurai chose the tactic of burning jade and stone together.

"May the gods and Buddhas bless me to defeat Sanzhu, and protect the land and the country!" The blood-stained Ashgaru rushed towards the rushing Miyoshi samurai like crazy, tore off his hood, and bit his neck, Even if the warrior's companion stabbed with a knife, he would not let go.

"Heitao Takashima! Was taken by Katsunosuke Akutagawa!"

"Takashima Youhei! Shiota Sanhei has taken it! The first battle begins to collapse!"

"The whole army was destroyed in the first battle! All the members below the general are shattered!" Kira Yoshihito recited the Buddha's mantra loudly, and his hand holding the rosary was trembling.

Two quarters of an hour later, there was a message: "The second team has joined the battle!"

"Second round Tahara Goemon begging for Akutagawa Katsunosuke!" The crowd of horses was in a commotion, the strength of the Miyoshi family was far beyond their imagination, and Omi Bei couldn't stand it for a quarter of an hour.

"Tahara Goemon is begged to die!"

"Easy Jian Dashan Liang was begged to death! The second battle began to collapse!"

Nakajo Tokihide finally couldn't sit still anymore, he raised his sword and bowed to Kira Yoshishi, and said, "Master, rest a moment! I'm going down to supervise the battle!"
