I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

"Ichitosai..." Inamori murmured, and subconsciously glanced at Matsuba Matsuda who was now in a state of astonishment.

He had always regarded Matsudaira Matshinbu's idea that "Ogata Ichitosai might go to ask for reinforcements" as a whistle-but he did not expect that Matsudaira Matshinbu's concerns would come true.

At this time, the messenger sent by Katsura Yoshimasa also reported another important piece of information: The cavalry brought by Ogata Ichitosai was a cavalry unit of the Lucias.

Although the question of "who brought this cavalry team" has been resolved, more questions have emerged.

Why does Ogata Itosai bring people to attack them?

Is Ogata Itosai still connected with Lucia? Can I invite Ogata Ichitosai?

What exactly does Ogata Ichitosai want to do? Do you want to take our army directly, or just want to harass us?

...

Although all the questions were squeezed together, Daamori felt that his head rose a little bit painful, but at this moment, he quickly displayed the qualities that he should have as an army commander.

He quickly regained his composure, and then looked around.

The generals in this formation are now in a state similar to "petrification" because they know the name of the attacker.

Knowing that he was trying to find a way to revive everyone's morale, after a few breaths of thought, Inamori said loudly:

"I'm still thinking about an idiot who dared to attack our army! It turned out to be Ogata Ichitosai, a lunatic who has been changing ways against our shogunate!"

"Huh! Since he personally led this cavalry team, it came just right!"

"He has fewer than a hundred cavalrymen."

"And there are ten thousand soldiers waiting for me!"

"With less than one hundred people to ten thousand people, I have the advantage!"

"No matter how good his sword Ogata Ichisai is, can it still be better than our 10,000 army?"

"No matter how powerful he is, there will be only one person after all! There will eventually be a time when his physical strength will be exhausted!"

"When his physical strength is exhausted, it is the moment I wait to get rid of this scourge and leave my name in the history books!"

Inamori's generous speech with a rounded tone, as Inamori wished, succeeded in boosting the morale of many generals in this line.

Some generals, probably to further embolden themselves, said loudly:

"That's right! Inamori-sama is right! No matter what I say, it is impossible for a cavalry with less than a hundred soldiers to deal with it!"

"Is there a problem with Ogata Ichitosai? Why do you come to trouble our army frequently? This is the third time he has attacked our army, right?"

"Kill that executioner!"

...

Seeing the changes in the generals around him, Inamori secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Inamori turned his head and turned his gaze back to the direction of the sixth formation that was currently being ravaged by Ogata and others.

He has now conveyed the command of defending the enemy to the generals of the army, and has done everything he can do.

All he can do now is to pray for the generals and troops to stop and defeat Ogata Ichizasai as soon as possible...

...

...

Team 6-

All the way to this point, Ogata has become a human being and a horse turning into a blood horse, just like Shura from hell.

And the Skulucci and others behind him, their appearance is now horrified by the blood splattered on their bodies.

Originally, the Don horses used by Ogata and the others were extremely large, taller than many samurai.

Ogata and others, riding on horses that are particularly tall in the eyes of the generally short generals, are already very oppressive.

The **** appearance of Ogata and the others made this sense of oppression even more intense and made the generals of the shogunate more suffocated.

Many soldiers were so frightened by Ogata and their appearance, they were stupid in place.

Of course-these generals who were frightened by the **** appearance of Ogata and others are only a few.

More soldiers were frightened by the flag behind Ogata... to be precise, they were frightened by the name "Ogata Ichitosai".

This is Ogata's purpose to show his true face and to tie this flag to the saddle.

The reason why the banner painted with "The Unparalleled Sword Ogata Ishi" is tied to the horse is not only to prevent Skulucci and others from losing their purpose-but also to let the generals of the shogunate. We all know: Ogata is coming!

What Ogata did was to use "psychological warfare" to destroy the fighting spirit of the shogunate generals.

Judging from the current results-Ogata's "psychological warfare" is quite successful.

Ogata has heard many soldiers wailing and wailing words similar to "It's Ogata Ichitosai" while fleeing hastily.

In order to further aggravate the fear of the generals and destroy their fighting spirit and morale, Ogata never relented to all the generals who blocked his way.

As it is now-there is a soldier dressed in Zuqing in front of him, roaring and rushing towards Ogata.

Ogata’s whole body and mind are now immersed in the word "breakthrough", so facing the three people who rushed towards him, Ogata immediately calculated the distance between the two sides like a conditioned reflex, and swiped the name with a knife. The soldiers chopped over.

Da da da……

There was the sound of horses' hoofs ahead.

Follow the prestige-is a military commander wearing a mighty armor, riding a horse and carrying a sword to kill Ogata.

Behind this general, only twenty infantrymen followed.

To be able to wear such a luxurious battle armor, its rank must be a general in the army and above.

He led such a small number of troops to usher, mostly because time was too urgent to mobilize too many people.

"I am the general of the Morioka clan-Takeshi Yoshimura!"

The military commander called out his house loudly.

However, Ogata didn't pay attention to listening to this guy's last name.

Ogata, who is in a hurry now, is already thankful for insensitivity to self-reporting about his family—and he is not interested in listening to a dying person's self-introduction.

The two rushed straight at each other.

The weapons used by Ogata and this Yoshimura Tsuge are knives. Although Ogata's length is longer and Ogata's wingspan is a little larger, the distance between the two of them is actually not much different.

When the two horses were about to diverge, Yoshimura slammed the sword in his palm, trying to slash at Ogata's horse.

Ogata also grabbed his sword at the same moment.

The timing of the two swords is the same-but the speed and strength of the two are too far apart.

Yoshimura tried to swing his sword fiercely, but Ogata's slash had already been swung.

Sakurahara One Sword Style · Dragon Tail.

The horizontal knife light swept across the head of Yoshimura's war horse, and after cutting off the horse's head in one breath, it swept towards Yoshimura's neck.

Yoshimura's head and the head of his horse were cut off at the same time. The human body and horse body that had lost their head fell weakly to the ground.

General: Meng Yoshimura-died in battle!

Yoshimura was suddenly killed by Ogata, and the more than twenty infantry he had brought were also dispersed by Ogata and others.

Ogata guessed: This general who was beheaded by him just now should not be an unnamed general. Because after defeating this general, Ogata clearly heard the screams and wailing sounds around him, and the defeat of the generals in front of him also accelerated.

...

...

The sixth team, the main team——

"Damn it! What the **** is Kuroda doing! Why didn't he lead people over to intercept Ogata Ichitosai!"

Katsura Yoshihide looked at Ogata and others who were getting closer and closer with his panic eyes, and then looked at Kuroda's direction with anxious eyes from time to time.

He had just sent an order to Kuroda, asking him to lead his troops as soon as possible to drag Ogata's footsteps and buy time for his formation.

However-until now, he hasn't seen Kuroda.

Gui Yizheng didn't know: Kuroda is now very "leisure" while waiting for Kuroda's help.

...

...

The 6th formation, the wing-

"Move fast!" Kuroda yelled at a general next to him, "Hurry up and gather more people! With the current strength, you can't stop the thief army!"

The attendant didn't dare to resist Kuroda, and after a loud answer, he turned and left and went to perform Kuroda's task of "gathering more people".

After the attendant left, Kuroda turned his gaze back to the direction where the 6th formation was about to be attacked.

——Master Gui, ask for more blessings.

Kuroda said silently in his heart.

——I can't help...I don't want to die.

Kuroda's state of mind had undergone an earth-shaking change in just a short period of time.

When he just learned that a thief army was coming, and received an order to "stop the thief army" from Gui Yizheng, Kuroda was very excited and wanted to do a big job.

But when looking at the enemy's situation with a telescope, Kuroda's blood immediately cooled after seeing Ogata's familiar face.

The scene in which Ogata killed three of their "Seven Guns of Senshu" in one breath, and it is still deeply engraved in Kuroda's mind until now, leaving a deep psychology for Kuroda. shadow.

So after seeing Ogata's face, Kuroda quickly changed his mind: What thieves? I don't know~~

But Kuroda couldn't expressly express that he feared the enemy like a tiger and did nothing. So Kuroda chose to use "dragging" as a disguise.

Kuroda has been deliberately using "the number of people at this point is not enough" as an excuse to let his subordinates gather more troops to delay time, intending to delay it until Ogata leaves the sixth formation.

After Ogata walked far away, he led others to pretend to chase after him.

Kuroda secretly rejoiced--Akiyuki was not here now.

Qiuyue was recuperating in the large camp behind them because his injury was still far from well.

If Akizuki was there, Kuroda would dare to conclude that Akizuki, whose brains were far less flexible than Kuroda, would definitely stop Ogata desperately.

...

...

The sixth team, the main team——

"Master Gui! Go! Hold on! The thieves are about to be killed!"

A military commander standing beside Gui Yizheng tried to persuade Gui Yizheng to escape quickly with a look that was about to cry.

Gui Yizheng's five senses are now entangled with each other.

The samurai education he received since childhood told him: It is shameful to run away.

But his desire to survive told him: Although it is shameful to escape, it is more important to save your life...

Ogata is now only 20 steps away from him, and the distance is so close that Katsura Yoshimasa can see Ogata's small half of his face that has been splattered with blood.

And his gun array-still not even a prototype.

Gui Yi was struggling, and finally—the desire to survive defeated the honor of the samurai.

He rode his horse hastily and flashed away from Ogata.

Gui Yizheng flashed in time, and he avoided Ogata's butcher knife.

After Gui Yizheng escaped from the position, the defense of the 6th formation collapsed completely.

As if chasing an escaped lamb, Ogata chased and beat the generals who were already in a rout in front of him.

The 6th formation-breakthrough!

Although the generals of the 6th and 7th formations did not stop Ogata at all, they also bought time for the defensive deployment of the rear troops.

When Ogata broke through the 6th formation and prepared to launch an assault on the 5th formation, they suddenly discovered that the soldiers of the 5th formation had already listed their gun formations and were waiting for them.

It's just that because of the lack of time, the gun formations listed by the generals of the 5th battalion...to be more ugly, they are tattered, and gaps can be seen everywhere.

The dense spear formation is the natural enemy of the cavalry, and no cavalry team has ever been able to break through the dense spear formation.

But on the other hand-the sparse gun array, which is not dense, is just a little harder paper for the cavalry.

Ogata casually found the closest gap to him and launched an assault.

His sword was swung one after another, and Ogata was more and more familiar with swinging a knife on horseback now. Wherever the blade passed, the generals of the shogunate were either dead or wounded.

Ogata expanded the small gap in the spear formation with his own strength, and the subsequent Cossack cavalry followed this gap into the fifth formation like a long dragon.

It is different from the 6th and 7th teams. The soldiers of the 4th and 5th formations are all soldiers of the Third Army (Aizu Army).

Although the generals of the Aizu Army are far more elite than the generals of other units, no matter how elite they are, the generals of the Aizu Army are also human beings.

In the face of an enemy rider that suddenly attacked from the rear, there was no way to quickly complete the defensive deployment. You will also feel tired and panic.

The news of "Attack in the rear" and "Strikes: Ogata Yishi" had already spread to the positions of the 4th and 5th formations.

In the face of this series of bad news, the generals were already in a state of panic, and before and after seeing Ogata breaking through two consecutive battles and smashing to their fifth battle, the panic continued to swell. .

Where the light of the knife passed, there must be a flash of blood, and the soldiers of the 5th formation faced Ogata's fierce attack like rice cut by a sickle.

Wherever Ogata and the others harvest their "scythe", the corpses are lined up.

Compared with the generals with avalanche morale and fighting spirit, Skulucci and others led by Ogata, their fighting will is like a flame that constantly dumps heavy oil, constantly rising.

If you are brave, you will be brave, and if you are a bear, you will be brave.

Ogata led them and broke through two thousand-man shogunate army formations like a ruin. Ogata's bravery far exceeded the imagination of Skulucci, who is more familiar with Ogata.

Skulucci asked himself: If he were to play forward, he would never have such an effect.

Even Skulucci, who is more familiar with Ogata, was frightened by Ogata's current bravery, let alone other people.

In the eyes of others, Ogata now seems to be possessed by the archangel: Michael.

Ogata's bravery made all the Cossacks excited. Because of their high emotions, they forgot their physical fatigue and became more brave as they fought.

Some of the generals who stopped in front of them were killed directly by the blade.

Some were hit by the war horse head-on, and even if they didn't die when they landed, they could only breathe.

Some are very unfortunate-after being hit by a war horse, the horse's hoof that was rushed to the ground was trampled into meat sauce, or the frightened person trampled on their feet and lost their lives.

The shogunate generals who had been using the kind of ponies they produced in Japan did not expect that the combination of humans and horses could form such a killing machine, and everything they went through was a **** storm.

Under the beam of light scattered after the dark clouds dispersed, this Cossack cavalry team led by Kazuhito constantly wielded their swords, and wave after wave of generals trying to intercept this cavalry team rushed up. They charged, attacked, and intercepted. , And then—death, leaving behind a corpse in one place.

Some of the soldiers who could not bear the horror brought by Ogata screamed, pushed and squeezed in horror, making the already chaotic army even more chaotic.

After leaving another corpse, Ogata's sickle successfully penetrated the entire fifth formation from south to north.

Line 5-Breakthrough!

...

...

When Ogata first started attacking the 6th formation, someone on the wall of the Red Moon Fortress noticed that the Hejun formation outside the city seemed strange.

It wasn't until the 6th formation was broken through and the 5th formation was defeated that the Ainu people on the wall were finally convinced that there was reinforcements coming!

"Look, everyone!"

Shouted an Ainu.

"It's reinforcements! There are reinforcements attacking the army of people!"

The Ainu's voice was very loud, and most of the people on the wall, including Chanup, Shendu and others, heard his shout.

"Reinforcement..." Shendu, who was holding the Japanese sword and still maintaining the posture of the sword, looked out of the city blankly, "Why are there reinforcements coming...Where are the reinforcements?"

The expression on Chanupu's face is much more complicated than that on his face, which is only covered with the emotion of "doubt."

He stared blankly at the cavalry team fighting outside the city.

Although the distance was too far to see the full picture of the cavalry team, Chanup knew who brought this cavalry team.

"I'm grateful..." Chinup, whose eyes were reddish, whispered in a trembling voice, "It turned out...and it took only 13 days to rush back..."

More and more people discovered the cavalry team that had burst out suddenly outside the city, and discovered the **** battle outside the city.

On the inner wall of the Red Moon Fortress, a weird "state of armistice" appeared.

Whether it was with people or Ainu, they were all caught by the battle outside the city, and then they showed various expressions.

The Ainu people looked hopeful.

And with people, it was panic on the face.

"Where did these reinforcements come from? Why did they attack and people?"

"It doesn't matter where it comes from! As long as it helps us deal with others!"

"These reinforcements are so few!"

"You may be less, but you see! The peacemaker has been defeated! Maybe you can really defeat him in one go!"

"Quick! Smash these and people!"

...

On the walls, the Ainu people who had become disheartened because they felt hopeless to defend the city, the flames in their chests rekindled the flames of hope due to the arrival of Ogata.

Many people spontaneously support Ogata and others who are fighting, even if they know that their voices will not pass.

...

...

The shogunate, the whole army's main line--

The generals in this formation have been stretching their necks, trying to observe the battle.

After seeing Ogata beat their seventh, sixth, and fifth three formations in succession, and began to attack the fourth formation, their expressions at the moment can be described as quite exciting.

They looked at each other, and what they wanted to say was engraved on their expressions with a little horror.

"They are still rushing straight in... They don't have any intention to leave or change direction... Their goal... Isn't it... our army's main formation...?"

I don't know who it is, he said in a slightly trembling voice.

Although the sound of this voice is not loud, it just happens to make everyone in this formation hear it clearly.

This sentence of the general speaks out the anxious questions that everyone has been circling in their minds since just now.

"Damn Ichitosai..." Inamori gritted his teeth, "Do you want to emulate Tian Yumura's final blow in the Osaka Summer Camp..."

In the final battle of Yukimura Sanada two hundred years ago to decide whether the world is surnamed Tokugawa or Toyotomi: In Osaka Summer, because the chance of winning is slim, he pretended to be the last fight-leading the cavalry to attack the Tokugawa army. , The intention to directly take the Tokugawa army commander: Tokugawa Ieyasu's deeds at the head level, for Inamori and other generals, of course, is no stranger.

"My lord!" As if finally unable to bear it, a certain general yelled to Inamori, "The thieves will soon be here! Let's go back!"

Inamori's main line is located between the 3rd and 4th teams. And Ogata has already begun to attack the fourth formation, that is to say-if Inamori and the others don't leave soon, their main formation will be completely exposed to Ogata and their soldiers.

Inamori's mood is very bad now.

After hearing this general's suggestion to retreat ~www.wuxiahere.com~ Inamori seemed to be finally unable to bear it, and threw the army counterweight in his palm to the ground, roaring:

"The 7th, 6th, and 5th formations-the three formations have a total of 3,000 troops. Can no one stop this executioner?!"

Under this roar of Inamori, the generals in this formation lowered their heads one after another, not daring to say even half a word, for fear of touching Inamori's current mold.
