Amago no Miko

Episode 135 The Battle of Wadayama 2

Yonglu 5 years (1562) Mid March Nishi Hirata Village, Asami-gun, Tajima

Target changed after 26th squad!Hit the enemy crossing the river with the highest priority!

Dadang!!

"Ball, the momentum of the enemy has waned somewhat, but it doesn't feel like it's stopping yet.

"Brother Gengoro, you can see that when you look at it."

I think the face of the enemy's ashigaru miscellaneous soldier is a witty expression... now it looks like a dead soldier!What drove the enemy so far?Here, even though Asahi County is not Akai territory, is there no future for the enemy anymore?No, it's not territorial defense.

No? If you lose to my Neko here, perhaps Akai will have nothing to lose.If Neko captured Tajima, would it be normal for Naoto Akai to think that he would invade Tamba next?

But Tamba belongs to Naito Sokatsu, Bomberman's brother, Nagato-san Matsunaga.Well, it's probably because Masao Akai doesn't know about it, so he's desperate here.

But let me tell you, "Go south and soak it up!I can't help but scream.In other words, what do you want to say? "This way, this way!", it is.

However, since there is a dense arrangement with Bomberman that Neko will be held in Tenda and Kaga counties in Kita Tamba, there is no doubt that Neko and Ichikami counties, which are the home of Akai Masahiro, are scheduled to be adjacent to each other, so there is no doubt that Naoko Akai is also feared.

In addition, Kuroi Castle is located where Naosaki Akai is based, and this is where I plan to build a canal linking the Yura and Kakogawa rivers.To be clear, Masahiro Akai's Kuroi Castle stands in the way of canal construction.

Hmm... if you can capture Masahiro Akai, you won't have to go beyond that, but the people of Tamba and Soda especially feel that the atmosphere of independence is strong.Are you saying you're high?

Well, that's why Akai advanced his troops to Asahi County, even though he knew he was at odds with Neko.Even if Yoshihiro Ashigara pulled the thread behind him, Akai and Hatano are the ones who lead the work force, so "I will show the countrymen of Izumo the spirit of the Tamba people!Something like that.

You must have been in a good mood.Well, it's just my imagination.

Unlike the big countries, the defeat in the war can lead to immediate annihilation, so it may be an unavoidable circumstance for Ashigaru Miscellaneous Soldiers from Akai to come as Dead Soldiers.But is Neko hated by Akai and Hatano?

Isn't that strange? I'm a pacifist who loves and seeks peace so much.I'm getting a little angry.Plumpy!

Ah, but Hatano is entangled in the Kyochi pole, and Akai may be entangled in Ashigaru from Kintetsu.Certainly, Naomi Akai's stepwife is already married to Kintetsu Maehiro's sister.

In addition, the people of Tamba place a specific gravity on the side of the imperial court and the shogunate, "We are the ones protecting the imperial court and Muromachi!Like this, most of them were supposed to be self-aware of the Maintenance Mainstream.

If this is the case, it might be helpless if Neko and I don't like it.It's a little annoying.

Well, your thoughts are derailed.With enemies approaching in front of you, it's not something to think about right now.

There are currently 200 artillery guns hitting enemies crossing the river on my main team.There are up to fifty units, so there are four cannons in one unit.In order to prevent the barrel from spreading heat, the guns are fired at intervals of approximately 30 seconds apart.

It is ten seconds longer than the time of Shinohara.In other words, two shots per minute.The number of guns deployed in a group is four, so eight per group.Fifty guns fire at a rate of about once every seven or eight seconds, but I can only say that the barrage is thin.

A little while ago, I said, "Can we get through this barrage and get to the main battle?I don't feel like there was someone who spoke a great language, but it's probably because of your mind.

You can't survive this warring state turmoil unless you calmly re-examine the situation and respond to the situation on an ad hoc basis.

Compared to the time of the battle in Shinohara, the number of Neko artillery guns has increased considerably today, but the number of artillery teams under my direct command has barely increased as a result of trying to deploy artillery guns 10,000 times to each side of the army.

It's like, "It's cheap to have the number of guns just for the Princess's direct domestic crowd!"That's what I was worried about to prevent you from seeing me under your command, but I didn't know that this was going to happen on this occasion...

If you knew how hard it would be to fight, you would regret that even if you reduced the number of guns deployed to each side of the army and the number of guns sent to the US base, you should have left more guns at hand.

But was it a strange thing to say just now?Looking back won't change the past.

I think there's only one way to hold back the enemies who are crossing the river by shooting into the giant fireworks of the tiger boy.

"Shoot a big cylinder at an enemy coming across the river!

Thank you!

"There's only one bullet left!

"I understand!

There are few balls left, so you'll have to chew and spare them.It's a sardine, though.

Dawn!

"Alright! My enemies are scared... aren't they?

It doesn't seem to be working very well.

Shit, you didn't have a good outlook.Wasn't it just one shot that scared the enemy?The opponent is like half a dead soldier, and I wonder if this can't be helped?If that's the case, I'll just keep pounding!

"Two shots in a row!

Ha!

So there are five more rounds of large fireworks left?I hope it's settled before we run out of everything....

Do-doo!

"Princess! Now it's time for the enemy's momentum to stop!

"Don't miss this plane!Gun squadrons are supposed to be commanders, so shoot first from the warlords!

Ha!

"Prepare to assault the horses!

"" "Ooh!!

Horsemen. This is really the last total reserve.When I pushed out this crowd, the soldiers on the main team were Sukkakakakakan peas, and the soldiers won't come out anymore.

"Shouldn't we let them run like horses?

"Even though the enemy is immersed in the river to the waist, we don't have any reason to go out with Sole, do we?

Large horses are beginning to be imported from the mainland, but there are still not enough, so the horses ridden by the crowd remain native Japanese horses.Imported horses must also be used as breeders in the first place to improve their breeding.

Because importing finished horses is not the only way to do it.

Still, in order to be able to carry out horse riding assaults in times of emergency, I intentionally gathered all the relatively large horses from among the native species, so in which occasion do I use them without using horse riding assaults in this scene?That's what I'm talking about.Well, it's not impossible for Cheeto Jiji to ask for confirmation.

The horses that inhabit Japan in this era are only about the size of a pony's hair, so almost none of them carry out horseback raids in groups while riding on horses.Of course, there are warlords on the battlefield who swing their spears while letting their servants pull their horses.

However, it is not mentioned in the literature that the assault while riding is carried out, and even if I ask Grandpa Tahou or the old minister, I have never heard of the horse assault in a group.Well, when I thought about it, it was only natural.

Sometimes the horses are small, but it's impossible to attack the enemy at the speed of Gallop, except for the remaining martial arts artists.When I understood it, I said, "I didn't have any dreams or romance..." I was a little depressed.

After all, the horsemen's activity, which excites readers with comics dealing with the wartime memories and the Sengoku period, was creative and kind of like a lecture... disappointing.Was it good for me to flip?

Well, perhaps the reality of a glamorously depicted battlefield is something like this.

In other words, the horsemen of Takeda, who are known and feared throughout Tsuura, were almost devastated by horseback raids.However, the fact that they knew about it in Tsujiura, Japan, meant that they also carried out horseback riding raids.

But horses are expensive, and they're not going to die that easily, so they probably didn't do it often.Besides, if horse raids are carried out frequently, it is not strange that the horse riders other than Takeda are more famous, right?

The horsemen of Takeda were feared because they were probably skilled at steering the horses of the riders, and because the spear sharpening on the horses was unbeatable to most samurai.

Still, horseback riders have a lot of weaknesses.First of all, because it is a horse, it is easy to be targeted by a man's ashigaru spear, and of course it is also easy to be targeted by bows and guns.You can say it's healthy, right?I'm also good, "Aim for a high-ranking warlord!That's what you're ordering.

Well, this time, even though it's called a horse riding assault, it enters the river, so maybe the horse's maneuverability and assault power have been sharpened, and it won't be enough to kick off the enemy.But since the enemy is more constrained in their movements, can I expect some?

Yes, do you think the significance of horseback riding in a group is to kick off the enemy, or do you think the greatest purpose and benefit of horseback riding is to run across the enemy and disrupt the enemy by daring to attack the enemy while Gallop is still there?

However, if a long spear is formed in Phalanx, I don't think it's a very destructive horseback attack, but....

That's right too.Shall I cover my Maori with a bow and spear? "

I asked you.

Not yet....

"The horses are ready!Anytime!

"My mighty and brave horses!Drive your enemies beyond the middle of the river!Crush the Red Demon servants!Destroy your enemies!

"" "Thank you!!

"But don't chase me!One hit. Back off!

"" "Thank you!!

"Assault the horsemen!

"" "Oooh!!

Dodododododododoooo!!

Horseback 150 horse raids are pretty tough and impressive.Well, I've labeled it a great assault, but the thing that hasn't gotten much faster is that you love it.

Phew, but now, is this completely awesome... if I'm supposed to take the maximum safety margin, I can't do this kind of situation.We need to be more careful in the future to avoid this.

Well, it's said to be scary, but there are still about a hundred people left on the main team.But half of them are non-combatants, and it would be subtle if they asked if they could fight with it.I mean, unfortunately, it's out of staff.

Now, we need to instruct the guns to change their targets.

"The artillery team split into two sides, changing the target behind the crossing enemies!Don't hit your horses by mistake!

"Roger that! Team 25 to the right, Team 26 to Team 50 to the left!

Chuck, chuck, chuck, chuck.

"Target, behind enemy across the river!Artillery, stand by!

"Shoot me!

Dadang!!

"Horsemen, the enemy has been kicked off and returned safely!

"What's the damage?

"I am the Three Riders."

Yes, thank you very much.

Ha!

It seemed sweet to think that the damage would settle at zero, no matter how much skill the horses had around them.Well, the opponent is desperate, and this is a war, so no matter how much horseback riding advantage you have, it's only natural for an ally soldier to die.

"Balls! Enemy followers are about to cross the river again!

Shit, you're a persistent enemy.Not yet, come quickly!

"When the enemy crosses the river to the middle of the river, they shoot two large canisters and then the horses attack!The guns keep coming across the river. Keep shooting at the enemy!

Thank you!

"Keep firing, Maurice!

"Okay!

Come quickly! We don't have that much!Especially on the other side of the river!

"Oh? Princess, the formation behind the enemy is starting to disturb!

"That's how it looks."

Could this be...?

"Inject! Inject!Yonehara's army is crushing behind the enemy's right wing!

fee ~, it looks like you managed to make it in time... this is a terrible feeling for your heart.

Now, in return, it's our turn!
