Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After Tanaka's hard work, he finally gathered about 600 ashigaru.  \r\nCompared with the previous 1,500 people, this number has shrunk significantly.  \r\nExcluding those ashigaru who were killed by the imperial guards' genetic men, the number of ashigaru who escaped during the retreat was about two to three hundred.  \r\nNow on the Osaka soldier side, the Hatamoto samurai owned by Ishida Aido and the ashigaru gathered by Tanaka total more than a thousand people.  \r\nBut there will never be more than 1,200 people.  \r\nCompared with the 800 people on Zhao Hongyu's side, although there is still an advantage in numbers, this advantage has become very less obvious.  \r\nIt can even be said that Zhao Hongyu and the others have controlled the situation on the battlefield and have the upper hand.  \r\nAfter passing through the place where there were several fierce battles, there were calls for help and screams of wailing.  \r\nAlthough the flintlock gun is very powerful, it cannot kill the Japanese soldiers immediately after hitting them.  \r\nMost of the Japanese soldiers fell to the ground with serious injuries, in great pain.  \r\nNow Zhao Hongyu and the others have no intention of solving the injuries of the Japanese. The most important thing for them now is to defeat all the remaining enemies in one go.  \r\nIn this way, they can have a good sleep tonight.  \r\nNow that the battle has begun, the situation is basically clear.  \r\nThere is no need to worry about the remaining enemies, they will be defeated after another fierce battle.  \r\nTherefore, Zhao Hongyu shook the reins in his hands and urged the black horse under his crotch to run all the way.  \r\n"Master, the enemy has not retreated yet, but the slaves are confident that they can be defeated with just one charge." \r\nAfter seeing Zhao Hongyu coming, Obama hurried up and said.  \r\nOf course Zhao Hongyu believes what Obama said, and he is very confident in it.  \r\nHowever, it seems that it is no longer necessary to let these minion cavalry charge.  \r\nThey are just enemies over a thousand years old. Just let the infantry of the Guards deal with these people.  \r\nAs for the coated slave cavalry of the Eight Banners of Europe, they should stay by their side honestly to be prepared for unexpected situations.  \r\nIf something unexpected happens then, I can have some reserve forces in my hand to use, right?  \r\nThinking of this, Zhao Hongyu said: "It's no longer necessary now. Let the infantry of the Imperial Guard come up. You stay with me to be prepared for unexpected situations. As for your military exploits and experience  Don't worry, after these remaining enemies are dealt with, I will let you cut off those heads."\r\n Obama and the others did not dare to complain about Zhao Hongyu's arrangement.  \r\nThe brainwashed slaves treat Zhao Hongyu like a god.  \r\nI have to say that the 'New Oriental' brainwashing school is really very powerful.  \r\n"Okay Master, I will pass on your order now! Long live the empire, long live the master!"\r\nObama sat on the horse, bowed obsequiously, then turned the horse's head and walked away  When he arrived among the coat guards, he passed on Zhao Hongyu's order.  \r\nSubsequently, the European Eight Banners-coated slaves rode their horses to Zhao Hongyu's side and formed a formation to protect Zhao Hongyu in the middle.  \r\n"Forward!" \r\nAt this time, the genetic guards once again began to advance forward.  \r\nTheir target and frontline were directed at the Ishida Aido main formation not far away.  \r\n"Sir, it's better to retreat. These foreigners are very powerful. Now that we have lost the cavalry, we can no longer defeat them with infantry alone."\r\nAt this time, Tanaka has already  He led the ashigaru who looked frightened and formed a very weak front in front of Ishida Aido's main formation.  \r\nTanaka has no confidence at all in resisting Zhao Hongyu and the others.  \r\nSo, he took this opportunity to quickly persuade Ishida Aido to retreat.  \r\nThe battle has been fought like this, and it is actually considered a failure.  \r\nEven if they don't admit it, this is the fact and no one can change it.  \r\nMoreover, if the fight continues, maybe they will all be found here.  \r\nAlthough they are unwilling to do so now, they have to admit that these foreigners are really powerful.  \r\nNot to mention the new tactics and their sharp iron cannons, you can tell just by looking at the corpses and those who fell on the battlefield.  \r\nThose who fell on the battlefield now are all Osaka soldiers they brought with them.  \r\nBut none of these foreigners were injured or suffered battle damage.  \r\nHow could such a thing not shock them.  \r\nYou must know that in the era of cold weapons, such a thing is almost impossible to happen.  \r\nZero casualties were impossible even in the time and space before Zhao Hongyu.  \r\nHowever, this thing actually happened here in the seventeenth century.  \r\nI have to say, this is a very surprising thing.  \r\nHowever, if you think about it carefully, it is not too surprising that this kind of thing happens.  \r\nAfter all, Zhao Hongyu's tactics only appeared in the 18th century, and the weapons they used also only appeared in the 18th century.  \r\nThe era they live in is only the seventeenth century.  \r\n?Is it surprising that technology that is ahead of its time can produce such an effect?  \r\nIf Zhao Hongyu and the others were using weapons of the 21st century, then it would be possible to sweep across the world with five thousand people, and there would still be zero casualties.  \r\nTherefore, the fact that 800 people faced 5,000 Osaka soldiers and suffered zero casualties was nothing at all.  \r\nAlthough this is nothing, for the Japanese who lived in the early seventeenth century and had very poor thinking and concepts, it was different.  \r\nThey were extremely shocked by such a battle situation.  \r\nNot a single hair has been lost after being defeated. On the contrary, our side has suffered great losses, having lost four-fifths of its troops.  \r\nSeeing that the enemy was suppressed, they were simply unable to deal with it.  \r\nIn the past, five thousand people didn't kill them, but now they have more than a thousand people and they want to defeat the enemy?  \r\nThis is simply a joke.  \r\nTherefore, what they have to do now is not how to fight each other, but how to get out of here.  \r\nBesides, their cavalry were all killed.  \r\nBut the enemy's cavalry was not damaged at all.  \r\nSo, this puts them at a big disadvantage.  \r\nThe role of cavalry in this era is basically the same as that of tanks.  \r\nIshida Aido's face was pale at this time. He had long been frightened and overwhelmed by the current battle situation.  \r\nTanaka's words suddenly woke him up.  \r\nYes, what are you waiting for if you don't run away now?  \r\nAre you still waiting for the enemy to come over and chop off your head with a knife?  \r\nNow the enemy's infantry has not started shooting iron cannons, which shows that we still have a chance.  \r\nThinking of this, Ishida Aido made a quick decision.  \r\n"Retreat!"\r\nIshida Aido has never been so happy.  \r\nNow in order to save his life, he actually took pleasure in once and made a decisive decision without hesitation and issued the most correct order.  \r\nYes, if you don't run now, why should you run?  \r\nI guess I won¡¯t be able to run away by then.  \r\nThis truth is not only understood by Ishida Aido, but also Tanaka and other generals, as well as the elite Hatamoto samurai and the remaining ashigaru.  \r\nIt's just that the lord Ishida Aimichi didn't speak, and professional warriors like them really couldn't escape without authorization.  \r\nAfter all, they are different from those militias.  \r\nThose militiamen just ran away, and the punishment for them would not be too severe. After all, they were not professional soldiers, and they did not receive salaries or anything like that.  \r\nBut they can't do that.  \r\nBecause they all receive salaries.  \r\nFor that salary, they can't escape.  \r\nIf they abandon their lord and run away without permission, cruel punishment will be waiting for them and their families will be affected.  \r\nAnd even if you don't die, you will have to suffer from other people's eyes and discrimination for the rest of your life.  \r\nAt that time, it can be said that they have no way to survive in Japan.  \r\nBut this guy Tanaka is very smart, because he knows the lord he serves very well.  \r\nAs for Ishida Aido's character, Tanaka has already figured out clearly.  \r\nHe knew that the situation on the battlefield was already very unfavorable. As long as he revealed a little bit of his intentions at this time, the lord, who was already so frightened that his face turned pale, would definitely want to quit.  \r\nBesides, I didn¡¯t mean to scare him.  \r\nEverything I said is true.  \r\nThink about it, five thousand of them came to fight the foreigners, but how many of them are left now.  \r\nForeigners are so powerful that even five thousand people cannot defeat them. So now that they have only one thousand people left, is it possible that they can defeat them?  \r\nObviously this is impossible.  \r\nSince they can no longer continue fighting with those foreigners, there is only one way to go before them.  \r\nRetreat!  \r\nYes, only by retreating immediately can we save them.  \r\nOtherwise, it would be impossible to escape while waiting for the foreign infantry to press forward.  \r\nWho doesn¡¯t think about his own life?  \r\nThis guy Ishida Kaido is even more afraid of death.  \r\nTherefore, after hearing what Tanaka said, Ishida Kaido looked at the battlefield with a pale face.  \r\nEverywhere he looked, there were wailing soldiers.  \r\nThen his body trembled and he immediately gave the order to retreat.  \r\nThe soldiers who had lost the will to fight couldn't help but feel relieved after hearing Ishida Aido's order.  \r\nThen he turned around and ran towards the forest behind, hoping to escape from this place immediately through the darkness of night.  \r\nIn Zhao Hongyu's temporary camp, Master Wang and Liu Dascar, who were watching the battle, as well as the famous businessmen headed by Xu Yan no longer knew what to say.  \r\nIs this a win?  \r\nThey couldn't believe it.  \r\nIt was still in danger just now, but now the situation has turned around, and the Osaka soldiers have actually retreated.  \r\nIn addition to the retreating Osaka soldiers, they also left behind many wounded.  \r\nJudging from the battle between the Song Dynasty and the Japanese, it seems that the Japanese are not that powerful.  \r\nThis is Xu Yan's idea.  \r\nHowever, Master Wang and Liu Dascar had something like this in their minds.?A thought.  \r\nAfter all, the Japanese have roamed the coast of the Ming Dynasty for decades. This is a real thing that happened.  \r\nIt is precisely because of this that the Japanese people left a very powerful impression on the hearts of the Ming Dynasty.  \r\nBut today, the Japanese, who they thought were very powerful, were actually defeated by the Song people.  \r\nMoreover, when they were defeated, the Japanese still had an absolute advantage in numbers.  \r\nThis fucking thing is really confusing.  \r\nHave the Japanese become weaker?  \r\nXu Yan thought to himself.  \r\nHowever, he quickly suppressed this idea.  \r\nAre the Japanese weak?  \r\nThis is a very ridiculous thing.  \r\nNowadays, there are many Japanese among the two pirate groups along the coast of Ming Dynasty.  \r\nXu Yan has also been in contact with and dealt with these people.  \r\nHe knew very well how powerful and ferocious the Japanese were, so he did not think that the Japanese were weak.  \r\nThose Japanese pirates were actually poor warriors from the earlier Japanese Warring States Period, or their descendants.  \r\nIn other words, they are all losers.  \r\nIt is Japan¡¯s ¡®Luther¡¯.  \r\nBut even these 'Luthors' are so fierce, not to mention the real warriors from the Japanese country.  \r\nThat must be more powerful.  \r\nHowever, now Xu Yan saw with his own eyes that the Song people defeated those Japanese.  \r\nThis had to make him murmur in his heart.  \r\nIf the Japanese are not weak, then there can only be one explanation.  \r\nSong people are very strong!  \r\nThis is the final judgment given by Xu Yan.  \r\nThe Song people used their blunderbuss in a variety of ways, which was not seen in the Ming Dynasty's army.  \r\nAnd the Song cavalry seemed to have used a tactic that he had never heard of before, and it seemed to be very practical.  \r\nAlthough he didn't know how they did it, Xu Yan stood here and saw that every time the cavalry fired the muskets in their hands, the Japanese they fought fell to pieces.  \r\nWhen did the power of the blunderbuss become so powerful?  \r\nXu Yan was very curious about this.  \r\nHowever, no matter how curious he is, he will not ask about this matter.  \r\nAfter all, he was not very familiar with these Song people, and at the same time, he was confused and wanted to ask about the other party's weapons.  \r\nIt's not certain whether people say it or not.  \r\nWhat if this happens to me and I want to inquire about their military situation, that would not be good.  \r\nSo, Xu Yan could only suppress these doubts in his heart.  \r\nBut no matter what, today he really opened his eyes.  \r\nI saw a new way to use the gun.  \r\nBut he also knew that this was how the Song Dynasty people could use blunderbuss.  \r\nThis would have been completely impossible to happen in the Ming Dynasty's army.  \r\n"The enemy has retreated! We are victorious!"\r\nMaster Wang and Liu Dascara looked at each other and smiled, feeling relieved in their hearts.  \r\nYou know, they have been on tenterhooks since the war started, and it's not a pleasant feeling.  \r\nZhao Hongyu doesn't know what the people watching from behind are thinking. He is now considering continuing to chase Ishida Aido and others from time to time.  \r\nThe ten people from Iga, led by Chizuru Hattori, who were observing the battlefield near the camp, were also stunned at this time.  \r\nOh my god, these foreigners are so powerful.  \r\nHowever, if we can really build a relationship with them, then it can be considered a good thing for people like them.  \r\nNow everyone is beginning to lean towards Hideyuki Kikuchi's suggestion.  (To be continued.
