The sweat on her forehead continued to slide down and flowed into Sanada Nobunaga's eyes, making her unable to blink in discomfort. Even so, her steps continued to follow the foot drill instructions.
She suddenly realized that Shiba Yiyin's set of walking commands did not seem to be a whip used to train dogs, a tool used to deliberately humiliate the Ji warriors and make them obedient.
The more tired she became, the more clearly the movements trained by the foot drill commands appeared in her mind, driving her body to cooperate with the team subconsciously.
One hundred Sanada armored soldiers seemed to have merged into one body. Everyone's movements had the same rhythm and were uniform, bursting out with new strength in their exhaustion.
Human will is so strange that sometimes it can even override the physical body. If you think you can't do it, then you can't. If you think you can, then you really can.
When everyone uses Samurai Hime's physical strength and will to measure the combat effectiveness of the Sanada Ironclad Army, they have already made a big mistake in their self-righteousness.
The set of foot drill commands that Shiba Yiyin gave to the Kanto Guards Station are memories of military training in his previous life. Although it is just a simple set of movements, it is the essence of the evolution of the French, German, Soviet, and Central Continental armies over the past five hundred years.
The training of foot drill commands is not only about physical fitness and obedience, but also about unifying the will of a group of people, clenching everyone into a fist, and bursting out the strongest power.
People don't know where their own limits are. In a state of exhaustion, the foot drill instructions that go deep into your bones will tell you that if you persist, you can, you can do it.
The Kanto Samurai used training methods that transcended the times, unlimited amounts of white rice, and European-style plate armor to sell iron, and they raised a group of real monsters.
Until this time, Hojo Ryuzan and Yamanaka Yukimori seemed to understand the value of the Sanada Ironclad Army, but they still fell into wrong predictions.
A slight difference can lead to a loss of thousands of miles.
The Sanada Ironclad Army walked step by step towards Ashikaga Yoshiji's family crest flag. In front of them, a group of Hime warriors appeared in full formation.
Hojo Akabe carries a red flag on his back. Although he is not as impressive as the fine steel plate armor, he is one of the top elites of the Hojo family.
Sanada Nobushige looked at the increasingly clear enemy lines, saw the perseverance and murderous look on their faces, and shouted.
"Everyone, stand at attention! Look to the right! Look forward! Number one and two rows!"
Following her command, the Sanada Armored Army stopped, and a famous warrior turned his head to count, one, two, three, four.
Soon, Warrior Ji from the other end of the two rows shouted one after another.
"Report! There should be 50 people in one row, but there are actually 42 people. Please give instructions!"
"Report! There should be 49 people in the second platoon, but there are actually 40 people. Please give instructions!"
Sanada Nobushige took two steps, turned back in a standard manner, and looked at the neat queue.
Everyone was looking at her, waiting for her order. Her eyes suddenly felt a little sore, not because sweat seeped into her eyes, but because she was inexplicably moved.
she shouted.
"Sisters, we have lost seventeen sisters! We are very hot and exhausted, and the spears in our hands were broken in the battle. Not even one out of ten is left!
Ahead! Are the elites of the enemy, they are waiting for our charge. We will lose more sisters, but I have no doubt that we will win!
I'm proud of you, and I'm proud of myself! Without you, I didn't know I could be so strong! It's you who gave me strength and made me invincible!
I beg you, give me a little more strength! Let us work together to get back the victory that belongs to us! Don’t let our sisters die in vain, worthless!
please!"
After saying that, she slid back, faced Chibei led by Hojo Ryuzan, and shouted.
"Everyone has it, abandon the gun!"
The few remaining spears in the two rows were thrown to the ground by Warrior Ji without hesitation.
One inch longer and one inch stronger. On the battlefield, spears are far more powerful weapons than swords. But at this time, they are willing to obey orders, give up longer weapons, and become one with the team.
Sanada Nobushige shouted again.
"All of them! Draw your sword!"
With a "wow" sound, all the Sanada armored soldiers uniformly drew their swords, held the swords in both hands, leaned to the right, and moved their upper bodies slightly forward.
"Everyone is there! The target is right in front, kill Gigi!"
Sanada Nobunaga let out a loud roar and took a fierce step. Behind her, two rows of Hime Samurai launched a desperate charge.
The front rows were side by side, and the back rows were behind the gap in the front rows. A huge wave of silver steel slammed into the red front line.
———
Hojo Ryuzan's face turned blue. She left the front line. The enemy troops there were ready to attack and were about to launch an offensive.
She must immediately kill the annoying armored army in front of her and lead Chi Bei back to the front line to suppress the battle.
At this time, there was no concept of victory in her mind, and everything she did was to delay time.
That terrifying armored cavalry went to the Central Army. I wonder how the Hojo Clan Council will deal with it?
She didn't dare to think too much, she just stood firm and did not allow the enemy forces on the northern front to defeat her and put more pressure on the Hojo Central Army.
Seeing Sanada Nobushige shouting in front of the battle line to boost morale, Hojo Ryuzan felt increasingly uneasy. This was an intuition gained through many battles.
The state of the Sanada Iron Armored Army is not that of exhaustion, but like a group of injured ferocious beasts, more dangerous than before.
she shouted.
"Flag Guard, raise my formation flag and move forward! Chi Bei! I am among you, follow me to kill the enemy bravely!"
"Hi!"
The red soldiers in front of the Sanada Armored Army were all diehard loyalists of the Hojo family and had high morale.
As soon as Hojo Ryuzan arrived at the front, he saw Sanada Nobushige launching a charge, and the armored soldiers were charging towards their own army formation with swords.
she shouted.
"Raise your gun! Press the line!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The first row of female warriors were half kneeling on the ground, their spears tilted up.
The second row of warrior girls put their spears on their shoulders and stabilized the barrels of the spears with both hands.
The female warriors in the third row raised their spears and placed them on the shoulders of the female warriors in the second row.
Two and a half long spears formed a dense and sharp wall of guns, pointing directly at the charging Sanada Ironclad Army.
———
Facing the dense array of guns, Sanada Nobushige remained calm.
She held the knife in both hands and stood sideways, using her left arm armor and breastplate, which were the thickest in her body, in front of her as a shield. She jumped up and hit it hard.
Behind her, all the Sanada armored soldiers were uniformly aligned, using their plate armor as a shield and charging into the gun formation.
The tip of the spear rubbed against Sanada Nobushige's plate armor, but was unable to break through the one-third centimeter thick curved armor and was forced to deflect away.
Her sprint and jump were so powerful that she knocked over three rows of enemy warrior warriors and rolled into the enemy formation.
Without getting up, Sanada Nobushige swept across the ground and slashed around with his knife, cutting off the calves of the two Hojo Princess warriors to create space.
He dodged a spear that was stabbing him. When the spear hit the ground, he rolled up onto the gun shaft and cut off the opponent's hand.
In the blink of an eye, Sanada Nobushige killed three elite warriors of the Hojo family. Their swordsmanship was superb and their bravery was unmatched.
