18. Small but always the first
"Hei Liu, immediately arm your concentric people, and use fire arrows to greet them if there is a sound."
"Everyone, choose powerful military servants and the public, and stick to the walls of the village. The rest of the people stay in the camp are not allowed to shout, walk around, and leave the camp!"
A group of generals responded to their orders, put on armor and purged the camp.
"Uncle, you can choose capable people to guard the bridgehead! And notify Fujiro Kazuki to defend himself and not attack!"
"Okay! I understand!" Uncle Gangliang was still very reliable when he arrived on the battlefield. His backbone of foot light was the villagers of Hebian Village at the time, and everyone knew each other. When commanding, it was like using his fingers, and it was very quick.
"Chen San, you bring twenty iron cannons to your uncle and help guard the bridge."
While talking, Xiaoping Tai was wearing a Nanman body, but it was a pity that the original Nanman Dao was thrown in Jingzhiyue, and I don’t know which Takeda soldier picked it up. Now Xiaoping Tai’s head, the Nanman Jinzhuye Iron-faced Dou spent another money to customize it with Sakai.
"Aji, Qigui, you two lit the bonfire, the fire is bigger, so that the whole camp can see my horse mark clearly."
At this time, Xiaoheita didn't give any extra orders, just stick to the camp. Because he was sure that Sankawa had not had so many elite troops to organize and launch night wars or surprise attacks, this is the military confidence of our great power.
Unless the Setsu Ishiyama Tomoya Motoyama Honanji Temple or Kagamoya Kanazawa Obo sends elite warriors to the war, and there are also famous generals like the Sekimatsu Ministry of Justice to come out, Kohei Taichi will not be afraid at all.
Sure enough, the stars of fire in the four fields did not dare to approach the camp or gather together. They tried to intimidate the army in the mountains, but Xiaoping Tai was in charge of the central army, so there was no effect.
Yamauchi's army followed Yamauchi Yoshiji and Yamauchi Yoshikazuki to fight against the Eastern Kingdoms for dozens of battles. This small scene could not scare these veterans at all.
Especially the guards and iron cannons of Xiaoping Taizhong Army were formed by dozens of veterans who survived the bloody battle of the Yuekou Battle. I have seen all the scenes like the thirty thousand Takeda Jiajun like a tide in the mountains and seas, and these wild ways are just a smile.
No wonder the emperor wants to form an old guard army. Such veterans who have fought for hundreds of battles are not only experienced and have high morale, but even if they appear on the battlefield, they can greatly drive and inspire their soldiers.
After a moment of stalemate, a whistle sounded in the field, and most of the sparks that had originally disappeared, as if they had been hidden, as if they had never been there.
"Is it going to retreat? It shouldn't be? Even our army didn't do it." Xiaotai stood up and thought about the enemy's intentions.
The only flaw in Yamauchi's army was Hayamihashi, but Uncle Tsunara's footsteps were the backbone guarding Nimata Castle and could not be easily defeated.
Xiaoheita was still thinking about how to set up the defense of the wooden bridge, but countless groups of raging fires suddenly ignited at the Kawaguchi.
From the upstream, it was like a wall rushing down, and the number of flames was increasing and getting hotter.
Oh my god, crow's mouth!
It turns out that Ikki is not always too hasty to tear down the bridge, but people are fighting to leave flaws, create flaws, and take advantage of flaws.
Xiaopingtai's army wanted to cross the river, either establishing a floating bridge or using ready-made bridges. Obviously, the Hayami Bridge, which retains solid wooden stakes, can be used as long as it is laid with wooden boards, which is the best choice for crossing the river.
Being used!
The large amount of bamboo steaks placed upstream were filled with straw and firewood. Judging from the burning situation, ignition materials such as tinder oil may even be added.
The densely packed bamboo trays rushed down the current, and the bamboo trays were crowded together. As long as they were stuck under the wooden stakes of Hayami Bridge, it would be inevitable that Hayami Bridge would catch fire.
As if to cooperate, a large number of torches began to appear outside the Iwase Motomasa camp on the other side of Hayami River.
A big banner of "Those who advance to the Pure Land will be reborn in the Pure Land, and those who retreat will retreat will be in the middle, countless "Buddhism is the basis", and the small banner of "Namo Wu Confucian Light Tathagata" also appeared waving.
Countless Buddha names that Ikkiki have always chanted "Namo Amitabha" and appeared on the other side one after another.
"The message ordered Fujiro to give up the beach camp and withdraw!" Looking at Hayamihashi who was already on fire, Koheita made a quick decision.
The sound of the bronze bell of Koheita's original formation was ringing, and the heroes did not suffer any losses in front of him immediately sent a order to discard the camp tents, supplies, chariots and horses, causing most of the soldiers to retreat.
Uncle Tsunara and Tatsu Sanze organized soldiers to try their best to lift water to extinguish the fire on and under the bridge, and to gain time.
In the darkness, the soldiers pushed and did not distinguish the direction. They also saw Yixiang Yikyu coming like mountains and seas. The bronze bell of this formation rang loudly. They didn't care about many things and collapsed backwards.
In order to cross the bridge, some people even pushed and fell into the water, and the wailing screams were heard loudly.
Iwase Motomasa himself broke off the rear and fought with the Ikki army who rushed into the camp. However, the morale of the army was lost and could not be restored. He was caught by two families and retreated from the bridge.
Seeing that the bridge collapsed, the camp on the other side was completely destroyed. After a little counting, twenty or thirty people were lost on the other side.
As if to mock Koheita, the head of the Yamauchi soldier who was killed was picked up by the Ikkiko on the other side of the shore and raised it high. He also set off a large fire to illuminate the head.
It was full of cheers and inspiration, and Ikkijo on the other side seemed to have achieved an incredible glorious victory.
"Thank you for your hard work in Fujiro, this is my fault."
When Koheita saw that Iwase Motomasa was being held to the main formation, his armor and face were covered with blood. He must have experienced a hard battle.
He hurriedly went up to support Iwase Motomasa, found a small stool for him to sit down, and asked someone to peel off his armor to check if he was injured.
"Play it right, alas~~~"
Iwase Motomasa was somewhat dissatisfied. After all, Koheita first gave the order to defend herself in a very short period of time, and then immediately left the camp.
Not to mention ordinary miscellaneous soldiers, even Iwase Motomasa himself was a little stunned for a moment.
At that time, Xiaoheita immediately asked the front battalion to retreat in order to save the team of more than 300 people. If more than 300 people were lost in this kind of battle and a city-name warrior of more than 400 stalemates died, Xiaoheita would definitely not be able to escape if she fought.
But it is true that Xiaopingta caused chaos in the front battalion, which is indeed related to Xiaopingta's lack of military command ability.
"Dan Zheng, but it's just a little boy. I will fight again tomorrow!" Imakawa Yoshiki saw Ichiko retreating and returned to his own formation.
"Yes, Fujiro is not bad either. Just fight to win tomorrow!" Uncle Tsunara was covered in dust, his face was covered in gray by fireworks, mixed with sweat, and his face was dark and dirty.
