Chapter 2386 Lu Fengxian vs Hattori Hanzo
Chapter 2383: Lu Fengxian vs Hattori Hanzo
Hattori Hanzo''s ninja army can be said to be Crouching Tiger Zanglong. Not only does Hattori Hanzo, the half-step master, also has several masters, more than a dozen top-class ninjas, and as many as two or three hundred first-class and second-class masters.
This shows that the individual combat power of the Ninja Army is actually very strong, and few army may compare.
But unfortunately, their profession is also ninjas, not soldiers.
As the name suggests, ninjas are shameless professions. They are good at sneak attacks, assassinations, poisoning, hiding, etc., but they are not good at fighting.
War has never been a matter of one person, and soldiers gather weak individuals into powerful groups.
Although Oda Nobunaga reorganized the six thousand ninjas into an army, this ninja army was just a group in the situation, but it was still divided into each other and could not achieve true unity at all.
So, a ninja can easily kill an ordinary soldier.
But if one hundred ninjas are against one hundred soldiers, it will not be so easy to win.
But if one thousand ninjas face one thousand soldiers, then one ninja will definitely be defeated.
An army of one thousand people, a thousand people form a battle against the enemy, and a thousand people are united, and can exert their combat power several times.
Ninjas of a thousand people fight on their own, and their fighting power is dispersed, but they cannot exert all their fighting power.
This is just taking infantry as an example, not cavalry.
As the king of hundreds of soldiers, the cavalry fighting in established institutions is much more terrifying than the infantry.
The opponent of Hattori Hanzo''s six thousand ninja army this time is exactly the nearly 10,000 elite cavalry.
Their fate has long been doomed.
After the ninja army was exposed, before they could burn fake food and grass, Guo Jia directly ordered Lu Bu to attack.
After receiving Guo Jia''s order, Lu Bu immediately led the Dragon Cavalry, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the Guards Tiger Cavalry and the Tianwu Army to attack.
After raiding for hundreds of miles, the cavalry finally arrived at the place where the food and grass were burned, but the building was empty, and there was no trace of it.
Dugu Qiubai, who went to the army to fight, judged that although ninjas are good at hiding, they will never disappear out of thin air, let alone a total of 6,000 ninjas?
Dugu Qiubai and the people from the Black Ice Platform soon discovered the traces of the ninja army after some investigation, and judged through the traces that the enemy had not left for a long time, and if they chased at full speed, they would be able to catch up quickly.
Dugu Qiubai pointed out the direction of the pursuit for the army. Lu Bu made a quick decision to start the pursuit at full speed, and chased after less than ten miles and caught up with the ninja army.
This shows that although the speed of ninjas is fast, they are also compared to infantry, and compared with cavalry, there is no comparison at all.
Hattori Hanzo is known as the God of Ninja, so he naturally has a few tricks. When Lu Bu''s iron cavalry was still five miles away, he knew that he was targeted, and the ones chasing him were still cavalry.
Hattori Hanzo obviously knew that with the six thousand ninjas in his hands who did not fight the formation, it was okay to engage in sneak attacks and plots, but if he wanted to fight against the established Iron Cavalry on the plain, he would definitely not be an opponent.
The distance of five miles is just a blink of an eye for the cavalry.
But for ninjas, they can''t get far.
Seeing the pursuit soldiers approaching, they could not fight and could not escape.
Faced with such a desperate situation, Hattori Hanzo completely lost his mind. Just when he was hesitating whether to scatter and escape, Lu Bu''s army had already chased him.
Thousands of iron cavalry roared over, and their momentum was as daunting as if they were overwhelming.
Hattori Hanzo was shocked when he saw this and quickly shouted, "Get together and join forces to fight against the enemy."
The plain terrain, with only 6,000 Japanese swords and shurikens, and ninjas who don’t even wear armor, face a fully armed cavalry. If the formation is still scattered, it is really not much different from seeking death.
After catching up with the ninja army, Lu Bu was naturally overjoyed, but he did not launch an attack immediately, but planned to wait for the cavalry in the rear to follow and then launch a thunder attack.
In Lu Bu''s eyes, the ninja army in front of him was already the fat meat on his mouth. He could eat it whenever he wanted. After all, no matter how much they ran, they could not escape his cavalry.
Following Lu Bu on four iron cavalry, except for the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry of Wei, the Tiger Cavalry of Wu and the Tianwu Army of Song could not keep up with the Dragon Cavalry Army that was marching at full speed, so they were defeated and left behind.
But this is natural. The geographical location of the State of Song is in the south, and the State of Wu is even a prince in the south. How could the cavalry in the south be comparable to the north?
Seeing that Lu Bu did not come directly, Hattori Hanzo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The clumsy command formed a round formation, regardless of whether the ninja could use the advantages of the formation, and at the same time, he prepared Khuna Shuriken''s long-range attack methods.
"Haha, Zilong, look, these ninjas have formed a formation." Lu Bu said with a big laugh.
Zhao Yun looked forward and didn''t know what to say.
A group of ninjas with only Japanese swords were not spearmen, and they didn’t even have a shield. They actually wanted to form a round formation to resist the cavalry? This is too whimsical.
Zhao Yun shook his head speechlessly, these ninjas were dead.
"Will this Hattori Hanzo fight a war? This is too stupid."
"I''ve learned a lot. I''ve seen it for the first time. I dare to fight with cavalry like this."
The generals of the Qin army also laughed and made a statement to mock Hattori Hanzo for his incompetence.
Hattori Hanzo must have fought a war and won the Wei army. But for such a desperate situation, let alone him, even if Oda Nobunaga comes, there is no way.
"Fengxian, the Huqi Cavalry and Tianwu Army have already followed." Zhao Yunhui reported.
Lu Bu nodded, held up the Thunder God''s Halberd high, and shouted: "All army attack."
"kill…"
Zhao Yun, Cao Chun, Han Qinhu, Zhao Yong, Jiuton Tongzi, Su Quanzhong, Gao Huaide and other generals, as well as tens of thousands of iron cavalry, shouted in unison, and their momentum resounded through the sky, rushing towards the turtle shell hundreds of meters away like a tsunami.
[Dingdong, Lu Bu skill "Dragon City Flying General" is activated. When commanding cavalry to fight, his own command +4 and his force +4;
Lu Bu: Commander 91 (+6), Force 108 (+6), Intelligence 62 (+1), Politics 58, Charm 97 (+2);
Equipment: Thunder God Halberd, Agave-Talk Bow +1, Red Rabbit Horse +1;
Currently, Commander Lu Bu has risen to 95 and his force has risen to 114;]
Seeing the momentum of the charge of ten thousand cavalry, Hattori Hanzo suddenly felt cold sweat from his forehead and shouted: "The enemy is here, hurry up and prepare the Shuriken, wait until the cavalry approaches 150 meters and is projecting."
“Hay.”
Six Thousand Ninja shouted in unison, pinching the shuriken in his hand, ready to give a fatal blow to the heavy cavalry in front of him.
Ninja''s shuriken is activated entirely by human power. The precise range is within 100 meters. After 100 meters, there is not much accuracy.
Hattori Hanzo let the launch of 150 meters, naturally because the enemy cavalry was densely formed, and he could hit the target even without accurate heads.
800 meters?600 meters
Four hundred meters
Three hundred meters
Two hundred meters
One hundred and eighty meters
Only when you truly face the charge of tens of thousands of cavalry can you realize what kind of despair it is.
The closer the cavalry in front approached, the more frightened the ninjas were, but none of them ran away because they could not run away with four legs.
The ninjas wanted to put the cavalry close to 150 meters before fighting, but they didn''t expect that the cavalry would draw their bows and shoot arrows at them four hundred meters away.
Swoosh, swish, swish...
Nearly 10,000 crossbow arrows shot in one go like raindrops.
When the ninjas saw this scene, they all opened their mouths and looked terrified.
Hattori Hanzo was even more shocked when he saw this. He only thought of gathering ninjas to resist the cavalry''s charge, but he ignored that the cavalry''s cavalry''s cavalry was even more powerful than the charge. Gathering together was like a living target for the cavalry.
In fact, this cannot be blamed on Hattori Hanzo. Most of the generals in Japan lack experience in dealing with cavalry.
Japan has not had many war horses, and the number of cavalry is even smaller. The only cavalry that can fight has almost been consumed in the war.
In such a situation where tens of thousands of cavalry were faced with this kind of battle, let alone the ninja Hanzo, Hattori, even Oda Nobunaga had never encountered it.
"No, please avoid it."
Hattori Hanzo shouted in panic, but then the rain of arrows fell.
Swoosh, swish, swish...
The ninjas had no time to hide, and a large number of ninjas were shot in arrows, screams kept ringing.
"Scatter, spread out quickly..."
Hattori Hanzo continued to shout.
When the ninjas heard this, they tried to disperse as much as possible while blocking and avoiding it.
Soon, the first round of arrow rain ended.
Hattori Hanzo looked around and thought that in this round of riding and shooting, there were nearly 600 ninjas that fell to the ground, and one-tenth of their troops were missing.
If we can do this for ten rounds again, we will probably be able to destroy our side directly. That''s a big deal.
"Scattered and fight with the Han people, kill."
Hattori Hanzo fell from one extreme to another, and took the initiative to lead the remaining ninjas to launch a counterattack against the cavalry.
After the ninjas were dispersed, the effect of cavalry cavalry shooting was greatly reduced. In the second and third rounds of cavalry shooting, they failed to shoot and kill 500 people, of which 400 were shot by the Qin and Wei armies.
The cavalry of Wu and Song archery was too poor, so it would be fine if they were not accurate, but they were obviously equipped with stirrups and saddles, but there were even cavalry that were caught off guard during the cavalry.
Lu Bu and Zhao Yun were completely speechless when they saw this scene. They never expected that this had been in the Shenwu years. There were still such cavalry among the Han princes, and they were not even as high as the second-line cavalry of the Qin Dynasty.
After three-wheeled cavalry, the Han cavalry also entered the range of the ninjas, and the ninjas began to throw hidden weapons such as Shuriken and Kousa at all.
These hidden weapons are poisonous and are very toxic. Once hit, even if the cavalry does not die, they will lose their combat effectiveness.
But even if all the Han cavalry rushed over were light cavalry, they were wearing armor. Although their defense was not as good as heavy armor and could not resist the shooting of powerful crossbows, there was no problem with resisting hidden weapons.
Most of the hidden weapons projected by ninjas were blocked by armor, and only a few people with bad luck, their exposed arms and thighs were shot by the hidden weapons.
In addition, more war horses were shot by hidden weapons. After all, the mounts of light cavalry are not equipped with vests.
However, the poison resistance of war horses is much stronger than that of humans. Even if they are infected with poison darts, they will not fall directly to the ground, but will gradually slow down and then they will fall to the ground.
The distance of 150 meters is only enough for the ninjas to project five hidden weapons, but at the end of the five rounds, less than 500 Han troops were dismissed, but thousands of ninjas died from crossbow arrows.
And what follows is naturally a close connection.
Hattori Hanzo swung his sword and slashed out a half-moon sword energy. The five cavalry rushing towards him had no ability to resist and killed them in half and died tragically on the spot.
Ninjas of the grandmaster level such as Madman Kotaro, Fujiro Nagato, Moonyu Izumi, Kato Toruzo, etc., also began to use their own means and show their skills. All the Han cavalry approaching were tragically killed by their hands.
In addition to them, those ninjas with super first-class, first-class, second-class, and even third-class strength also swung their swords to slash at the cavalry rushing towards them.
But these cavalry are too fast and they are rushing too hard. Third-rate and second-rate ninjas cannot escape the collision of cavalry at all, let alone chopping the cavalry.
Only first-class ninjas can avoid the impact of cavalry and counterattack in infantry battles.
But this is obviously not absolute
Boom...
A first-class power, when facing the side-by-side collision of five cavalrymen, had no time to dodge and was directly knocked away by the cavalry.
After being hit, the ninja''s internal organs broke and he fell to the ground. Like those second-rate and third-rate ninjas, they were stepped into meat paste by the cavalry behind them.
Unless you practice external skills to a high level, no matter whether you are second-rate, first-rate, or even first-rate, once you are hit by a cavalry charging at full speed, the result will actually be the same. You will definitely be seriously injured and difficult to get up.
And if you are hit in such a situation and cannot get up, there will be only one consequence, that is, you will be stepped into a paste.
With the first first-class ninja to be killed, there will be the second, third and fourth immediately, and the first super-class ninja to be killed.
Most of the ninjas who were reorganized into the army were brothers of the same sect and had a good relationship with each other, but the brothers died tragically by the enemy, which also aroused the fierceness of many ninjas, and caused certain casualties to the cavalry for a while.
Behind the cavalry, some ninjas were lifted up on horses, but after riding them, they found that the horses were just listening to them. Ninjas who could not ride the horses instead restricted their combat effectiveness when they got on the horses, and were then hacked to death by the cavalry around them.
Seeing that there were more and more death ninjas, many of them were their disciples. The masters led by Hattori Hanzo were completely angry and began to slaughter the cavalry around them without leaving any effort.
The Qing army actions of Hattori Hanzo and others quickly attracted the attention of generals such as Lu Bu.
