Chapter 227 Why Are Ming Warriors Afraid of Standing Against the Stand?
Before Tokugawa Ieyasu sent envoys over, Xiao Ruxun arranged for scouts and captured Japanese traitors to get a clear idea of ​​the surrounding routes, then called Li Rusong and Liu Ting over, pointed them to two places, and told them where to go. These two places were lying in ambush, waiting for the Japanese army to attack Luo Shangzhi's camp in one fell swoop.

Then Xiao Ruxun told Luo Shangzhi that the next Japanese attack would definitely learn how to deal with artillery under limited conditions, that is, to widen the range between the army formations and replace the large army formations with small army formations. Reduce the lethality brought by the artillery, then you don't take our countermeasures, just fight like that, give them the illusion that we are messed up, let them invest in a larger scale, and wipe out the enemy on a large scale for Li Rusong and Liu Chen Create opportunities.

And Xiao Ruxun himself led [-] elite soldiers to the side and rear of the Japanese army's main formation, and observed the situation of the Japanese army's main formation with binoculars. Seeing that the Japanese army's formation was organized with its back against a hill, he knew that the hill must be Tokugawa. Ieyasu's headquarters is located. He needs to climb high to see far away, because he doesn't have a telescope. When the two ambush soldiers of Li Rusong and Liu Ting come out, Xiao Ruxun can use these two troops to contain the Japanese army on the front line, and then lead the army by himself. The ambush soldiers came out and took the hills where the Japanese army headquarters is located, causing Tokugawa Ieyasu's army to be in chaos.

Xiao Ruxun was sure that Tokugawa Ieyasu didn't know that the main forces of the Ming army had arrived one after another.

Three ambushes of the Ming army came out one after another. Even if Tokugawa Ieyasu was military blind, he could see that the strength of the Ming army was definitely more than [-]. He looked around in horror and found that all the Ming troops he could see , Kuroda Rushui gritted his teeth and stared at the location of Xiao Ruxun's Shuaiqi. He saw the enemy he hated so much, the enemy who brought him shame and fear.

The capricious villain!Daming actually used this kind of villain as his coach!It's a state of etiquette in vain!
He made a mistake. The state of etiquette is to treat friends, not enemies. To treat enemies, the more despicable and shameless the better!
All under Xiao Ruxun's command are the most elite Ningxia Firearms Battalion, equipped with gunners and shields, which can form the most complete firearms array, which can advance, attack, retreat, and defend. Even if they face the cavalry directly, they are capable of fighting, let alone panicked. In the Japanese army, Xiao Ruxun directly sent artillery carts to bombard the mountain, and then took advantage of the situation to let the shield soldiers and spearmen protect the pistols and advance, opening the way with firepower, easily defeating Tokugawa Ieyasu's rear troops.

There were wolves in front and tigers in back, and Tokugawa Ieyasu was in a panic. He turned his eyes to Kuroda Rushui, but saw Kuroda Rushui staring at a certain place on the battlefield, motionless, as if petrified. The deep-seated flaws in his personality that lack the ability to adapt to the situation are fully exposed at this moment. At this moment, he even thought of the tragic battle he had faced with the hero who was all over the world more than ten years ago. defeat, and the panic at that time.

He still remembers that time, when he was still younger, he couldn't sleep all night because of this failure and his gaffe, and then he ordered the artist to draw out the ugly gaffe at that time, so that he could look at himself the most embarrassing every day As time goes on, he has gradually developed a very deep castle, and before this battle, Tokugawa Ieyasu was already confident that he would never show that ugly appearance again.

But now, in the face of the extremely dangerous situation on the battlefield, he could not suppress this emotion again, and he realized that it was so difficult to change a person's character.

The sound of guns and cannons rumbling on the battlefield, he looked at the soldiers under his subordinates, he watched the soldiers under his subordinates who swept away Toyotomi's remnant army retreat steadily, and were beheaded by the Ming army like chopping melons and vegetables, watching The iron cavalry of the Ming army galloped freely in the Japanese formation, watching the infantry of the Ming army rushing left and right in the Japanese formation, watching the artillery of the Ming army spit out flames, and kept taking the lives of his subordinates.

He also saw that his artillery team was completely destroyed by the Ming army's artillery shells without firing a few shots. The few remaining gunners were hacked to death by the Ming army, and the remaining one was captured by the Ming army. Ieyasu Tokugawa looked at him like this, but he couldn't do anything. The retainers around him kept asking him what he should do, but he, who should have made a decision, didn't make any decision. Can't do it either.

He pinned his hopes on Kuroda Rushui, but Kuroda Rushui's full attention was on Xiao Ruxun. He was thinking about how to kill Xiao Ruxun, but he didn't pay attention to the situation of the whole battlefield at all, waiting for the Tokugawa retainers to go When asking him what to do, Kuroda Rushui suddenly realized that this was a battlefield rather than a duel between samurai.

Therefore, he had to make a decision.

"The current situation is very dangerous. The fighting power of the Ming army is too strong. We must concentrate all our efforts to defeat Xiao Ruxun's army. There is a saying in Chinese military art that capture the thief first and capture the king first. This is our only way to survive! My lord! We must To defeat Xiao Ruxun, defeat him head-on!"

Tokugawa Ieyasu hesitated.

"We only have this army. If the damage is too great, how can we compete with the Toyotomi clan for the world? Our foundation is not stable. If the damage is too much, let alone whether we can compete with the Toyotomi clan, even those with ulterior motives The local famous names can’t be controlled, if it really comes to this time, what should we do?”

Kuroda Rushui hurriedly said: "Now is not the time to think about these things. If we think about these things, we won't even be able to keep our own name. Why are we talking about competing for the world? I think Xiao Ruxun is deliberately going to war with us and deliberately angering us! He has no The meaning of peace talks with us, he may want to annex the whole of Japan! Lord, we must rush out! At any cost!"

Tokugawa Ieyasu panted heavily, seeing the increasingly bad situation on the battlefield, he knew that he had to make a decision.

"I know, pass on the order! The Sakai team and the Shenyuan team are in the rear, and the main forces of the rest of the armies will attack Xiao Ruxun with me! Tell the Sakai team and the Shenyuan team to defend me no matter what! Even if the entire army is wiped out for this! Now it is them It's time to be loyal to the Tokugawa Clan!"

The orderly rushed out immediately.

Tokugawa Ieyasu pulled out his waist sword. He knew that now he was needed to boost the morale of his soldiers, and he was duty-bound.

"Masters! Come out with me!!!"

Tokugawa Ieyasu took the lead to the front line of the war, and behind him were the Tokugawa retainers and Kuroda Rusui.

Xiao Ruxun observed the change of the handsome flag at the top of the hill, and knew that Tokugawa Ieyasu was ready to fight to the death.

Warriors of the Ming Dynasty, why are you afraid of fighting with your back?
war!
