"Rumble..."
The huge cavalry gradually came to the front of the team and began to enter a charging posture. As the horses ran, it seemed as if the whole earth was shaking.
"jump jump jump..."
The artillery behind the Yijun position was still bombarding. Although the shogunate's forwards were getting closer and closer, they could not hit them at close range. However, there were many troops who could not hold back the shogunate. Behind them, the Yangtze River's back wave pushed forward, and then surged up. Therefore, they can still bomb at will to reduce the pressure on their own front.
........
"Oshima-kun, charge forward, victory is ours. Let's compete to see who can kill the most people!" A forward cavalryman began to shout loudly after walking out of the congested road.
"Haha, Harada-kun, you have never been able to defeat me in a fight before, and you will definitely lose this time. I will definitely kill more than you." At this time, Fujiwara had also run out of the way of the army. Oshima responded with a laugh.
"Our bushido spirit is loyalty and courage, and we are not afraid of death..."
"Kill...kill...kill..."
Officers on horseback mobilized before making their final stand.
"Kill! Rush over and kill all the Han people. Long live Japan! General, may you be victorious!"
With high-pitched shouts, the shogunate's cavalry began to accelerate and sprint with their horses under their backs.
The distance of one mile is somewhat far for infantrymen wearing heavy loads. But for the charging cavalry, it only takes a minute or two.
....
"Report, the enemy cavalry has entered a one-mile range..."
"Report, enter 400 meters..."
"Three hundred and fifty meters..."
"Fire..."
"Ta da da... da da da da..."
In an instant, there was loud gunfire in the Yijun position.
The smoke from the artillery had not had time to dissipate, but now with the addition of gunfire, the entire battlefield was once again enveloped in smoke.
At this time, both parties' lines of sight were blocked, and they could not see what the other party was doing at all.
The soldiers on the Yijun position also fired bullets desperately towards the opposite side based on their feelings. Although the instructors and team leaders usually taught them that they should save bullets and strive to kill an enemy with one bullet. But at this time, they didn't care much anymore.
Soon, the shogunate cavalry rushing in front felt the "deepest" greetings from the Yi army. The bullets were raining down this way.
In just a few breaths, the cavalry rushing in front changed one after another.
The two cavalrymen who were clamoring for a killing contest just now also fell to the ground, trampled beyond recognition by other charging men and horses.
"What's going on? Why haven't the cavalry rushed over yet?" At this time, Tokugawa Ieharu found something strange on the battlefield and couldn't help but worry.
The shogunate could not afford to lose more than 5,000 cavalry, but if so many cavalry were smashed down, some effect would have to be seen. But now, there is no movement at all in the Yijun formation.
What does it mean?
This shows that the cavalry of the shogunate did not cause chaos to the formation of the Yi army at all, and they may not even get up from the Yi army's position.
"How is it possible? This is a plain, dominated by cavalry. There are no large defensive structures on the opposite side, just a barrier of horses and a few mud walls. How can it be possible to block the charge of the cavalry?"
Before the war, Tokugawa Ieharu had repeatedly peeked at the Yijun's position through a telescope. Even though the battlefield was filled with smoke, he still had a vivid memory of the Yijun's position.
However, how could Tokugawa Ieharu understand how miserable the shogunate's forward cavalry were at this moment? From the moment they charged, they seemed to have entered an endless hell.
There are constant explosions behind you, and countless bullets are shooting in front of you. Even if you are blessed by Amaterasu and you are lucky enough to rush to the front fifty meters, there are still horse traps and horse traps waiting for you. If you are blessed by the twin gods Izanagi and Izanami, and if you are lucky enough to break through, there will be a barrier behind you.
And behind the horse are the black holes of the gun muzzles, and when they are pointed one by one, even if the other gods, the highest masters, come, they just accept their fate and let them follow the god of death.
More than a thousand cavalrymen rushed in from the front, but the people behind still did not wait for the chaotic sound of gunfire.
This shows that the thousands of cavalry in front have been folded. The cavalry who continued to charge also realized that something was wrong. Especially when they saw people around them dying tragically and tragically, their psychology began to be unbearable, and their fear continued to increase.
Since Tokugawa Ieyasu established the shogunate, the shogunate has not fought a war for many years.
Most of the samurai who went to the battlefield at this time had undergone simple training, although some of them also participated in the "Ikui" incident to suppress the common people. But that was all against a mob with outdated weapons, almost no fighting skills, and very weak fighting will.
They have almost never experienced a real tough battle.
Shouting the Bushido spirit all day long can indeed make them feel honored and even want to die for it.
But after the person who was truly willing to die for died, many people who just wanted to enjoy the honor revealed their truest self.
"escape..."
"Escape from here..."
"One second I was a high-ranking samurai master, a high-ranking Hatamoto, and a step general. How could I just die here? If I die here, there will be nothing..."
"Yes, General Zhengyi still needs me. I can't die here. This is unwise..."
Soon, cavalrymen ran towards the open areas on both sides and began to flee the battlefield with all their strength.
"Yes, it's not that I didn't charge. I was just disoriented by the smoke of the battlefield. After I turned in another direction, I then circled around and attacked the Han army."
If there is one, then there are two. If some people don't know, running to both sides is simply leaving the battlefield.
But few were willing to stop them, because those who tried to stop them all died, which also included the supervising team behind them.
As a result, the shogunate had a magical scene on the battlefield.
One or two cavalrymen in front led a group of cavalrymen behind them and rushed to other places as if they were lost on the battlefield.
The infantrymen saw this
"Hey, you guys have already run away on horseback, why should I rush?"
"Anyway, the cavalry is leading the way, so there's nothing wrong with us following the cavalry!"
The cavalry can leave just as quickly as they come.
Judging from the time it took the leading few to leave the battlefield, the entire cavalry vanguard fled away from the battlefield in just three minutes. So much so that the infantrymen behind them couldn't keep up with the speed at all.
Therefore, in order to follow the cavalry as quickly as possible, the infantry could only adjust their body shape and run around the bend. If the cavalry are like broken arrows, then the infantry are curled back directly.
As for what equipment is not equipped, how can life matter?
The infantry followed
