Chapter 56: The Brave General Shibata Katsuya

Those infantry mainly archers were naturally not opponents of Gao Xianda's cavalry team. They tore the formation apart after a charge by Gao Xianda and forcibly broke through the past.

This is equivalent to completely blocking the retreat of those archers.

Gao Xianda's giant mace flew up and down, and each stroke could bring a ball of flesh and blood, like a meat grinder.

He was able to kill the funeral, but the Oda family's village suddenly opened a large camp and a team of people broke out from it.

The people in the village seemed to not want to give up these archers, so they could only send troops to rescue them, wanting to use pincer attacks to siege Gao Xianda.

The previous ambush plan had failed and suffered heavy losses. However, if the Imakawa family's main cavalry team could be eaten up, it would be considered moving back to a city.

Although this team of men is infantry, they have a neat formation and move quickly, which is better than ordinary soldiers.

It was for a middle-aged man with a helmet, a crown and armor, and a long spear in his hand. The spear was made of a good steel mouth, with a long sharp edge and a gorgeous shape. It looked like a good spear.

The man shouted: "I, Shibata Kiyorororo, are here, who dares to fight me!"

His voice was very loud and he was like a bell, and his voice could be heard on the battlefield.

Everyone knew that he was the enemy's chief general, so a cavalry who wanted to make meritorious service rode his horse and rushed over with a gun, stabbing him with one shot.

I saw that the man did not dodge or avoid, and stabbed him in front of him with a shot. His spear technique was much faster than that of the ordinary cavalry, and he pierced the cavalry's chest in an instant. The cavalry's hands suddenly softened and the gun could not be stabbed.

The man stretched out his hand and picked up the cavalry's body, then swept across the gun, and swept the other cavalry rushing towards him off the horse.

He took action in succession and stabbed two cavalry to death in two moves, which was also a shock to the whole audience.

He shouted: "Hahaha, who else!?"

For a moment, Gao Xianda's cavalry were shocked by his momentum and did not dare to step forward.

What a hero!

Gao Xianda secretly admired in his heart. Since the man claimed to be Shibata Kiyoro, Gao Xianda could probably infer who he was.

When he was in the Imakawa family, he often heard that the general of the Oda family was called Shibata Katsuki, known as "Kei Shibata" or "attack Shibata". He had high martial arts skills and a very brave combat style. When he was at a disadvantage, he could also take actions to encourage morale and lead his army to fight back.

This battle shows his command style.

The ambush was laid in advance, the trap was set up, and the cavalry troops with superior power were blocked in a narrow valley, and then arrows were scattered from the mountain. If Gao Xianda had not seen through the enemy's ambush in advance, the entire army would have been wiped out by this time.

However, after the ambush is discovered, if it is replaced by other commanders, it is enough to defend with all their might. Even if all the archers outside die, there is no need for him to go out to meet the enemy.

After all, cavalry are valuable products and are not good at sieging cities and territories. It is actually very difficult to capture in front of a village with sound defensive facilities.

But he did not sit still and wait for death. In order to rescue his soldiers, he led his team to open the door and fight to the death with Gao Xianda's cavalry in the field. I don't know whether he should be brave or reckless.

But the way to distinguish between courage and recklessness is who won the victory in the end. Shibata Katsuya is now standing in front of Gao Xianda with a big gun.

If Gao Xianda cannot overcome this hurdle, he will be considered a loss.

Gao Xianda also took a deep breath and shouted, "I am Ikawa Hikaruoshi, let me learn your tricks!"

Gao Xianda rode his horse and raised his stick, and rushed directly towards Shibata Katsuya.

"Good come!" Shibata Katsuki laughed, and the big gun in his hand was a gun flower, which was considered a salute to Gao Xianda.

In the blink of an eye, Gao Xianda rushed over. He swung the mace in his hand with the horsepower.

Shibata Katsuya felt a strong wind blowing in front of him, and his whole body was cold. He quickly raised his gun and blocked it horizontally.

The mace hit Shibata Katsuya's big gun. Although the spear is a famous product, it is limited to the sharp tip of the gun. After all, the body of the gun is still made of ordinary wood. With a click, the spear was smashed into two pieces.

However, Shibata Katsuya is not an ordinary person after all. After being hit by this, although his spear was broken, his steps under his feet were not chaotic. He took a few steps back and did not suffer any major damage.

This can prove that he is powerful and has a deep attainment in martial arts. If an ordinary person is beaten by Gao Xianda like this, even if he does not die, he will be beaten away.

Shibata Katsuya angrily threw the two spears in his hand to the ground, picked up a cavalry spear from the pile of corpses, and shouted to Gao Xianda: "Come again!"

Gao Xianda smiled slightly and rushed forward, and another blow.

Shibata Katsuya has gained experience this time and dared not use the spear in his hand to force it. Instead, he quickly dodged and then prepared to wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

Gao Xianda waved the mace. Although it was of great mass and great momentum, it was not very high, so if you were determined to avoid it, there was no problem.

But the problem is that this is on the battlefield, not an arena with only two people. On the battlefield, there is no room for ups and downs. There are people around, fronts, backs, and lefts.

Shibata Katsuya barely avoided Gao Xianda's stick, and a cavalry next to him stabbed him from behind with a shot.

Shibata Katsuya couldn't dodge and was shot in the shoulder. He wanted to stab Gao Xianda again, but he couldn't take action.

"Kill and kill! The enemy's chief general Shibata Katsuya has been injured! Catch him!" The cavalry around him saw that Shibata Katsuya was injured, as if he had seen blood flies and rushed over. The merits of catching a master general are much greater than those of killing dozens of miscellaneous soldiers.

But the infantry around Shibada Katsuya is not easy to mess with. They are also troops who have been through and died with Shibada Katsuya, and many of them are professionally trained samurai.

When they saw that Shibata Katsuya was injured, they all stepped forward to cover Shibata Katsuya's retreat.

So the cavalry and infantry fought again.

If these cavalrymen of Gao Xianda do not have the advantage of riding horses and assault, they are in line with the front and the infantry holding spears do not have the advantage in attacking each other.

These infantry also knew that they were short and it was very difficult to stab the cavalry directly from below to the horse, so they attacked the horse very insidiously.

These horses had no armor on their bodies. If they were shot or shot twice, they would be covered in blood and could not stand.

If the horse is overturned, the cavalry will naturally not be able to stand, and if the horse is dropped, it will basically not be able to survive.

During this period, even if they were able to kill two infantrymen in exchange for two, they would actually be a loss.
