one Reverse scull On the tenth day of the first lunar month in the second year of the Yuan calendar (1185), Judge Yoshitsune Kuro came to the Fahuang Palace, and through the Dazangqingtaijing, he played to the Fahuang: "The Heike family was chased by the gods, abandoned by the king, fled from Kyoto, and wandered in the West Sea. Became an exile, but after three years, he still has not been killed, and some states are still separatist, which is really hateful. Now Yoshitsune is determined to pursue and suppress, even if he chases to Ghost Realm, Goryeo, Tianzhu, and Cathay, if he does not eradicate The Ping family, I swear not to return to the imperial court." The emperor was very happy to see that he was quite reliable, and issued an order: "Make all preparations immediately, march day and night, and fight with him." Yoshitsune returned to his official residence , announced to the soldiers of the Eastern Kingdom: "As the representative of Duke Kamakura, Yoshitsune respectfully received the imperial decree of the Emperor, and immediately sent troops to pursue and suppress the Ping family. I will definitely catch up with you, and I swear not to give up. If there are people with two hearts among you, you can leave as quickly as possible."

Let's talk about Yashima, the time flies like a white horse, the first month has just passed, and February is here again; the spring is late, and the autumn wind is startling; the autumn wind has just stopped, and the spring has come again.Three years have passed in a flash.It is reported that tens of thousands of new troops from the Eastern Kingdom have been summoned in the capital, and they are about to attack.It is also rumored that soldiers from Usuki, Huci, Matsuura and other tribes were gathered from Kyushu and crossed the sea.All these rumors are frightening to hear.The female officials, headed by Jianli Menyuan and Mrs. Erpin, gathered together and lamented: "It's going to be bad luck again! Another sad thing is coming." Xinzhong Nayanzhi Shengqing said: "Eastern country, northern country He, who has received great kindness from the Heike family, is now ungrateful and has defected to Yoshitomo and Yoshinaka. I fear that the people of the Western Kingdom will do the same. They once advocated a fight to the death in the capital. Because this is not my own business, I am discouraged, It is really regrettable that I left Kyoto at a loss, and now I am in such a miserable situation." This statement is indeed very reasonable, so I feel even more sad.

On February 3 of the same year, Dr. Kuro Judge Yoshitsune led his army to leave the capital, and assembled ships at Watanabe[1] in Settsu Kingdom, preparing to attack Yashima in a large scale.Fan Lai, Sanhe Guard, also led his army to leave Beijing on the same day. He gathered his warships at Kanzaki [2] in Settsu Kingdom, and was about to set off for Sanyo Road. On the thirteenth day of the same month, the palace dispatched palace envoys [3] to Ise Daijingu, Ishikimizu, Kamo, Kasuga and other shrines.Order the subordinates of the god officials and the priests of various shrines to pray "bless the emperor and the three artifacts back to Kyoto" at the main shrine of the palace.

On the 16th of the same month, when the ships assembled at Watanabe and Kanzaki were about to unmoor, a sudden northerly wind blew up, trees were destroyed, and huge waves roiled, damaging many ships and making it impossible to sail.Due to the need for repairs, the dispatch of troops had to be suspended that day.Those big and small names who gathered in Watanabe commented: "I haven't done the sea combat training, what should I do?" Kajihara Keitoki said: "For this naval battle, it is best to install a reverse oar on the ship." Judge Yoshitsune asked, "What is a reverse scull?" Kajihara replied, "In order for a war horse to gallop, it must be able to turn left and right freely. It is very important for a warship to be able to retreat quickly, so it is necessary to install oars at the bow and stern of the ship. The rudders are installed on both sides, so that you can move forward, backward, left, and right." The judge said: "In combat, you should never retreat a step. If the situation is unfavorable, it is common for soldiers to retreat. But if you plan to retreat from the beginning, I am afraid Not good! First of all, this is a bad omen. It doesn’t matter if you install reverse oars or retreat oars, just put hundreds or thousands of oars on your fleet, my Yoshitsune will not move the original oars.” Kajihara Said: "The so-called good general means that one should advance when it is appropriate to advance, and retreat when it is appropriate to retreat; protect oneself and annihilate the enemy, and only then can one be called an excellent general. He only knows how to advance, but does not know how to retreat. The wild boar-style bravery, He won’t be a good general.” The judge said, “Whether it’s a wild boar or a wild deer, if you start a battle, you’ll be able to win if you attack, and you’ll be happy if you win the battle!” The samurai heard this, because they were afraid of Kajihara, Not daring to laugh, he just winked and whispered, "Judge and Kajihara are going to fight each other now."

The sky was getting dark, and at night, the judge issued an order: "Everyone, the ship has been repaired, and each person will be given a plate of food and a jug of wine to celebrate the sailing!" Also took it up.Then he ordered: "Start the boat immediately!" The boatman and the helmsman said: "The wind is from behind, and it is blowing more violently than usual. It is blowing hard in the bay. How can we sail!" The judge said angrily: " It would be absurd if the boat could only be sailed against the wind. Now it is with the wind, but it is slightly stronger. Besides, it is such an important matter, how can it be said that the boat cannot be sailed! Anyone who does not want to sail will be shot and killed one by one! After saying this, Sato Saburo Bingwei Tsuishin and Ise Saburo Yoshimori of Oshu bowed their bows and set arrows, and said: "Why are you dawdling? This is an order. Hurry up and sail! If you don't sail, everyone will be killed." Shoot to death!" Hearing this, the boatman and the helmsmen said, "Shooting is also a death, it's not the same. The wind is so strong, it's better to die in the strong wind!" So five of the 200 warships rowed out.Some of the other boats were afraid of the wind and some of them were afraid of Kajihara, so they all stayed where they were.Judge Yoshitsune said: "You can't do nothing just because others are out of the sea. When the sea is calm, the enemy will also take precautions. The best time to destroy the enemy is to catch him by surprise in this strong wind and waves." The five ships that sailed out, The first was the ship of Kankan Yoshitsune, followed by Tashiro Kanto, Goto Hei and his son, the Kaneko Brothers, and the ship of Euchi Tadatoshi from Yamashiroyodo who was in charge of sailing.The judge ordered: "No bonfire should be lit on each ship. Yoshitsune's ship is the command ship, and bonfires should be lit at the bow and stern. If there are too many bonfires, the enemy will find out and take precautions." So they flew all night Go forward, the three-day voyage will only take three hours to arrive.On February 16th, when Choushi left Watanabe and Fukushima, they were blown to Awa[4] at Tianming Maoshi.

-------------------------- 【1】Watanabe is located near Tenmangawa in today's Osaka Prefecture. [2] Kanzaki is located in Nishiyodogawa District, Osaka Prefecture. 【3】Palace coin envoys are envoys sent by the god officials in the palace to offer coins and silk to various shrines. 【4】Awa is today Tokushima County. -------------------------- two Katsuura The sky was already bright, and the red flag fluttered slightly on the shore beach.Bangong Yoshitsune ordered: "Ah! They are already prepared! If the boat is sailed directly to the beach, and then the horses are unloaded from the boat, the hull will tilt, and we will become arrow targets and be shot by the enemy. Therefore, we must Drive the horse into the water before we reach the beach, let it stick to the side of the boat, and swim forward. When the horse can touch the ground and the water is only under the saddle, we ride the horse forward like a tide. Do it, everyone! "On the five ships, there are only more than 50 war horses with weapons and rations.When they approached the beach, they hurriedly mounted their horses and rushed forward with a shout.The more than one hundred defenders ambushing at the beachhead were terrified and hurriedly retreated around Ercho.The judge went to the beach, let the horses rest for a while, called Ise Saburo Yoshimori, and ordered: "Find someone who has status from the opponent's team, and ask him something." Yisheng obeyed, and rushed into the enemy line alone. After a while, he really brought back a leader.The man was about forty, wearing a black leather armor, took off his helmet, unloaded his bowstring, and followed.The judge asked: "Who are you?" "A local resident, Kondo's sixth relative's family in Banxi." "You can call it whatever you want. You don't have to surrender your weapons, just guide us to Yashima like this. Be careful, everyone." Hey! Keep an eye on him and shoot him if he escapes!" After giving the order, he asked again, "Where is this place?" Katsuura. People omit one character and call it Gazinra for the sake of ease of speaking. The text is written as Katsuura." The judge said to the servants: "Listen, everyone, I, Yoshitsune, came to fight and arrived at Katsuura. This is a good omen. This area Is there anyone like the Heike family?" "There is one, Sue Noto Sakurama, younger brother of Awa Minbe Shigeno." "Okay, let's kill him first and rush over!" Among the cavalry, more than 30 cavalry were selected and incorporated into Genji's team.When they marched to the vicinity of the city of Nengyuan, they saw mud on three sides and a ditch on one side, so they advanced from the side of the ditch and shouted loudly.The soldiers in the city fired arrows together and shot them one after another.The Genji soldiers didn't care, put down the neck guard on the helmet, shouted loudly and attacked.Seeing that the situation was not good, Ying Jianjie asked his soldiers to shoot arrows to cover him, jumped on his strong horse, whipped him several times, and managed to escape.The judge beheaded more than 20 people who released the cover arrows, dedicated them to the army god, and cheered loudly: "The flag is flying!"

The judge asked Kondo's six relatives: "How many horses are there in Yashima?" "No more than a thousand horses." "Why so few?" One hundred riders, and Tanuchi Zaemon Kono, the son-in-law of Awa Minbu Shigeno, took more than three thousand riders to Yiyu [1] in order to conquer Kono Shiro who refused to obey his orders." "So, This is a great opportunity. How long does it take to get from here to Yashima?" "It's a two-day journey." "Then, before the enemy gets the news, rush over there!" So, sometimes galloping horses, sometimes walking slowly Jin, sometimes stopped on horseback to take a rest, overnight crossed the dividing line between Awa and Sanuki, the mountain named Osaka Koshi.

In the middle of the night, the judge and a man who delivered the documents walked together and talked.Since it was nighttime, this person never dreamed that he was meeting an enemy, and he thought it was the Heike army heading to Yashima, so he talked in detail without any scruples. "Who is this letter for?" "To the Minister of the Interior of Yashima." "Who entrusted it?" "The women's family in the capital." He replied: "Nothing important. It is said that Genji has arrived at the end of the Dian River, so I made a special announcement." Go ahead." The man replied, "I've come and gone often, so I know the situation, so let's go with you." The judge immediately shouted: "Bring the letter!" Immediately snatching the letter, he ordered: "Tie him up." Get up! Don’t do evil, let’s not kill him for the time being!” After speaking, he tied the man to a tree in the mountain and walked away.When I opened the letter and read it, it was indeed in the tone of a female family member. It wrote: "...Kurang is a shrewd and capable person. I think he will lead the army forward in the face of strong winds and waves. Please don't spread your troops and be careful. That's good." After reading it, the judge said, "This is the letter from the gods to me, please keep it for Kamakura Lord!" After finishing speaking, he put it away carefully.

On the eighteenth day of the next day, I arrived at Yintian in the Sanuki Kingdom.After letting the horses rest for a while, they took Danshengya and Shiratori and approached the castle of Yashima. I don't know, it's very shallow there, and when the tide is low, the water between the island and the land is only as deep as a horse's belly." "Well, then, attack immediately." So they set fire to the houses in Takamatsu and marched towards Yashima Castle. Let’s talk about Yashima, Awaminbe Shigeno’s son, Tanuchi Zaemon Kono, led more than 3,000 riders to Yiyu to conquer Kono Shiro who did not obey his orders.Kono escaped, beheaded more than 150 members of his subordinates, and brought their heads to the Yadao Palace to report victory.Because it was inconvenient to inspect the head in the palace, it was inspected by the Minister of Internal Affairs.A total of 156 heads.While inspecting it, some servants suddenly shouted in disorder: "There is a fire in Gaosong!" "If it is daytime, it can be said that the fire was accidentally caught. The enemy army is strong, and it will be difficult to be surrounded, so hurry up and get on the boat!" The boats lined up on the seashore in front of the gate of the city, and people rushed to get on board.The empress dowager, the empress dowager's younger sister, the empress dowager's mother, Mrs. Nipin, the regent's wife, and other ladies were all aboard Emperor Andoku's imperial ship.The Minister of Internal Affairs and his son took the same boat.The rest of the people boarded boats at will, either one town apart, or seven or eight blocks apart, five or six blocks apart, and sailed out to sea one after another.At this time, Genji's army, with a total of seventy or eighty horsemen, suddenly appeared on the beach in front of the city gate.It just so happened that the tide was falling at this time, and it was the shallowest time, the water was only as deep as the horse's calf or belly, and in some places it was even shallower than that.A white flag suddenly rose amidst the mist splashed by the horseshoes. Maybe it was the Heike's luck, and it was regarded as the arrival of the Genji army.According to Yoshitsune's instructions, in order not to expose their small number of people and horses, the Yuan army was divided into five or six cavalry, seven or eight cavalry, and ten or so cavalry, and moved forward in small groups.

-------------------------- [1] Yiyu is now Ehime County. -------------------------- three Si Xin's death Kuro Judge Yoshitsune’s attire on that day was: a red brocade straight skirt covered with a purple armor with a light top and a dark bottom, a waist knife with a gold handle, a black-spotted eagle-feathered arrow on the back, and a rattan-wrapped bow tightly held in the middle , staring at the Heike ships, and shouted loudly: "I am the imperial envoy of the Emperor of Japan, and the five Weiyuan Yoshitsune, the inspector of non-violators." National resident Kaneko and his first relative Fan, Ise Saburo Yoshimori.Afterwards, Gotobei Miki, his son Shinbei Kikiyoshi, Sato Saburohei Tsunobu of Oshu, his younger brother Shirobei Tadanobu, Eda Genzo, Kumai Taro, Musashibo Benkei, etc. signed up, while registering. Sudden horse forward.The Ping family shouted "shoot them", some boats fired arrows repeatedly, and some boats took arrows to shoot long distances.When Genji's soldiers found that the enemy ships were on the right side, they shot to the right, and on the left side, they shot to the left; the ships lying on the shore became a place to cover the rest of the horses; they marched forward with loud shouts.

Gotobei Shiki is a veteran, he did not go into battle, but rushed to the palace and set fire everywhere.For a moment, the fireworks skyrocketed.The Minister of the Interior, Ping Zongsheng, summoned the warriors and said, "How many people and horses are there in Genji's army?" He replied, "Now there are only seventy or eighty horses." I can count them. Instead of encircling them and destroying them, they boarded the boat in such a panic that they burned the palace. I really can't be reconciled. Can you board and guard? Go to the shore and fight with them!" The Minister of the Interior issued an order, Noto Shou replied "obedience", and led Koshichu Jiro Bingwei Mori, changed to a small boat and returned to the beach in front of the burnt city gate, where he set up an army.The 80 or so riders led by the judge stopped their horses when they were within an arrow's distance.I saw Koshichu Jiro Bingwei Sheng Shili standing on the bow of the boat and shouting loudly: "I heard you sign up just now, because the sea is far away, I can't hear your real names and official titles clearly. Who is Genji's general now?" Ise Saburo Yoshimori immediately stepped forward and said: "It is the well-known tenth generation grandson of Emperor Qinghe, the imperial brother of Kamakura Duke Kuro-doctor Judge Yoshitsune." Sheng Si said: "Of course I know, isn't it that his father was killed during the Heiji Rebellion before, Became an orphan, worked as an envoy in Anma Mountain, and later worked as a servant in a gold merchant's house, and wandered around Ozhou with food on his back!" Yisheng said: "Don't talk about my lord with your lips! Didn’t your lord, who was defeated at Dilang Mountain, fled for his life alone, wandered to the Hokuriku Road, begged along the way, and returned to Kyoto crying!” Sheng Si continued: “The king’s deep kindness can’t be exhausted, what There is a matter of begging for food. Your lord, fell into the grass in Suzuka Mountain in Ise and became a bandit. He raised his wife by robbery and survived..." At this point, Kaneko Juro Iatada retorted: "Just talking nonsense! Speaking of gossip, you are no match! Last spring in Ichinoya, Musashi and Sagami young people, you have learned the skills of young people!" Before the words were finished, the younger brother and Kazuki next to him drew their bows and arrows , and shot about twelve and a half [1] arrows in the past, hitting Sheng Si's armor right in the middle, and piercing through the breastplate of the armor.This is how the verbal war ended. Noto Shoujiao said: "There are sea methods for fighting at sea." So he took off the straight skirt under the armor, put on the armor embroidered with Tang brocade on the outside of the Tang-style finely dyed tight-sleeved underwear, wore an extremely sharp sword, and carried a sword on his back. Twenty-four light black eagle-feathered arrows, holding a vine-wrapped bow in his hand.He is a top-ranking strong archer in the capital, and no matter where his arrow goes, he will be shot down.Today he is bent on shooting Kuro judge Yoshitsune down.But Genji is also unambiguous. Oshu's Sato Saburo Bingwei Tsunobu, his younger brother Shiro Bingwei Tadanobu, Ise Saburo Yoshimori, Minahachi Hirotsuna, Eda Genzo, Kumai Taro, Musashibo Benkei and others are all With one thousand warriors, each of them scrambled to be the first, patted their horses forward, and stood in front of the general Yuan Yijing, making it impossible for Neng Dengshou to start. "Those who block the archery, get out of the way!" Notoshou shouted, bending his bow and nodding his arrows, and shot again and again.In an instant, more than a dozen of those armored warriors fell off their horses with arrows.Especially the Sato Saburo soldier Wei Shixin who rushed to the front, was shot through his left shoulder and right rib, and fell off his horse immediately in unbearable pain.Neng Dengshou had a pony named Ju Wang, who was extremely powerful, wearing a light green waist armor, fastened the three belts on the helmet, drew a long sword with a white handle, and rushed forward to take off the head of Sanlang Bingwei.Sato Shirobei never asked him to cut off his brother's head, he shot an arrow, hit the pony's waist armor, pierced through the gap, and immediately lay on the ground with his back facing the sky.When Notoshou saw him, he jumped down from the boat, holding the bow in his left hand, dragged King Chrysanthemum back with his right hand, and threw him onto the boat with all his might.Although the poor King Chrysanthemum was not beheaded by the enemy, he was seriously injured and lost his life.This man was originally Xiao Mabian of Tongsheng, one of Echizen's three lieutenant generals. After the lieutenant general was killed in battle, he was put under the tent of his younger brother Neng Dengshou. He was eighteen years old at the time.The death of this pony made Notoshou so sad that he stopped fighting in battle. Judge Yoshitsune asked Saburo Sato to be carried to the rear, got off his horse and held Saburo's hand, and said, "Saburo, how do you feel?" Si Xin calmed down and replied, "It's no longer possible." "What's the matter?" Do you want to say something?" "What is there to say? It's a pity that the lord died before he could fly to Huang Tengda. Besides, the person holding the gun was shot and died a long time ago. This is doomed. In the future, people will say: 'Gen Ping During the battle, Sato Saburo of Oshu died protecting his lord on the seashore of Yashima, Sanuki. 'This is the glory in life and the comfort in death for those who hold the sword.' After finishing speaking, the judge gradually became weak. He burst into tears and said, "Is there an eminent monk here? Ask about it." After sending someone there, he said, "The injured person can't stand it for long. Immediately find someone to copy the scriptures for a day and pay homage to him." He prepared a fat black horse with a saddle carved with gold decorations, and presented it to the eminent monk.The name of this horse is Da Fu Hei, which was named after the judge's rank when he was promoted to five lieutenants.In the battle of Ichinoya, when I passed the Bulbulus Mountain, I also rode it down the mountain.Tsushin's younger brother Sato Shirobei, and all the samurai who saw this situation, all shed tears and said: "There is nothing regrettable about dying to protect the lord like this." -------------------------- [1] The length of ordinary arrows is twelve.A handful is the width of four fingers. -------------------------- Four Nasu Yoichi Let’s talk about the samurai warriors from Awa and Sanuki [1] who betrayed the Heike family and returned to Genji, one led fourteen or five riders, and the other led more than twenty riders, and they rushed over one after another. It didn’t take long for Judge Yoshitsune to collect three hundred soldiers. I ride. Said that "today it's too late to fight a decisive battle", and when he was about to withdraw his troops, a somewhat unusual small boat sailed from the bay to the shore, and suddenly turned the boat over at a place seven or eight sections away from the coast. "What's going on here?" People were puzzled, but they saw a graceful girl about eighteen or nineteen years old coming out of the boat, wearing a willow five-layered dress [2] and a red hakama, holding a A fan with a golden sun printed on the red ground is inserted on the shelving across the sides of the ship, greeting the shore.The judge asked Gotohei Shiki, "What's going on?" "It seems to be shooting arrows. But look at the general, there is a beautiful woman standing at the target; in my opinion, she is going to let the archery shoot." A good archer shoots the fan. If that's the case, let our people shoot it." "Then who should shoot it?" "There are a few masters, including Nasu Taro, a resident of Shimono Kingdom. The child with high qualifications and Yi Zong are tall, although they are short in stature, they are masters of archery." "Is there any basis for this statement?" "He shoots birds for a bet, if he wants two, he shoots two, and if he wants three, he shoots three. Only." "If that's the case, call him!" So he called Nasu and Yoichi. Yu Yi was just in his twenties at the time, wearing a brown straight gown with red trim on the hem and cuffs, an armor stitched with light green thread, and a silver sheathed waist knife. With a few piebald eagle feather arrows, and a bow wrapped with vines under his armpit, he took off his helmet and hung it on a knot on his shoulder, and dressed like this to come before the judge to listen to orders. "Zong Gao, shoot the arrow in the middle of that fan, let the people of the Heike family see it." Yoichi replied respectfully: "Archery may not always be so accurate, if you miss it, wouldn't it damage your reputation? Face. There is someone who can shoot better, you can tell him to shoot." The judge was furious and reprimanded loudly: "You officers and soldiers set out from Kamakura to expedition to the Western Kingdom. You must not violate the order of my Yoshitsune. If you are pregnant If you are half-hearted, go back right away!" Yu Yi felt that it would be wrong to add further defenses, so he said, "It's definitely not half-hearted. Since you say so, just shoot and see." After finishing speaking, he backed down and gave the horse The stout black horse put on its hindquarters and a carved saddle decorated with shells, and flew up.He took the bow again, took the rein, and galloped to the beach.His companions watched him go away, and they all said: "This young man will definitely be able to shoot." The judge also watched with anticipation. Because the shooting range was a little bit farther, Yuyi went to the sea for a certain distance, and stopped at a place about seven distances away from the fan.It was You time on February 18th, the north wind was strong, the waves beat against the rocky shore, the waves were rough, the boat was shaking, and the fan could not be stabilized on the handle.The Heike fleet lined up on the sea and watched, and Genji's men and horses tied up on the land watched.It cannot but be said to be a great show for either side.Yoichi closed his eyes and prayed in his heart: "Namo Hachiman Bodhisattva, all the gods of our Shimono country: the power of the sun Utsunomiya [3], the Yuquan Daimyojin of Nasu [4], please protect me if I hit the fan; If I don’t hit it, I will bend my bow and kill myself, and I will never see anyone again. I hope to return to my home country again, please protect me from missing this arrow!” Opening my eyes, I saw that the wind had subsided a little, and the fan was easier to shoot.So he took the ringing arrow, put it on the string, drew the bow, and shot it out with a whoosh.Although he is short in stature, the arrows are twelve and three-finger long, the bow is a hard bow, and the arrowheads are arrowheads flying across the sea; he aimed precisely at the inch and shot the long fan shaft, and it broke into two pieces with a click. , the fan floated in the air, and the arrow fell into the sea.I saw it fluttering in the air twinkling, turned over and over by the spring breeze, and fell on the sea in an instant.Under the setting sun, the red golden sun fan is floating on the white waves, flickering and swaying.On the sea, the people of the Heike family patted the side of the boat in admiration; on land, the people of Genji patted their quiver and cheered in unison. -------------------------- 【1】Awa and Sanuki, namely Tokushima Prefecture and Kagawa Prefecture. [2] Willow color is light green with a slight pinkish white interweaving light green warp threads and white weft threads.Five layers of clothing is a kind of women's clothing, with five layers of shirts overlapping between the coat and underwear. [3] The power of Nikko now refers to Erhuangshan Shrine in Nikko, formerly known as Utsunomiya Daimyojin. [4] Nasu's Yuquan Daimyojin is the hot spring shrine in Nasu County, Tochigi Prefecture. -------------------------- Fives fishing bow When everyone thought it was very interesting and couldn't help admiring it, a man about fifty years old suddenly stepped out of the boat, wearing a black leather-stitched armor and holding a long white-handled knife, standing at the place where the fan had been placed.Ise Saburo Yoshimori approached Yoichi and said: "My lord has an order, shoot him down!" So Yoichi drew an ordinary arrow from behind, put it on the string, opened the bow fully, and swished it at the man. The neck bone was shot, and the man immediately fell head first to the bottom of the boat.The people of the Heike family didn't speak, but the people of Genji clapped their quiver and cheered loudly.Some said: "Good archery!" Others said: "It's too inappropriate." The members of the Ping family thought this was unreasonable, so one held a bow, one held a shield, and the other held a long sword. The three warriors rushed to the seashore, erected their shields and shouted: "Enemy soldiers, come here!" The judge ordered: "Young man with a strong army and a strong horse, rush over and beat him!" So Mihoya Shiro, a resident of Musashi, his younger brothers Shichiro and Juro, Shiro Tansheng, a resident of Ueno, and Kisochu, a resident of Shinano, all shouted together. up.Hiding behind the shield, the enemy mounted a big black eagle-haired arrow with a painted shaft, and shot an arrow at the left chest of Misuiyajuro's mount in the front, shooting the entire arrowhead in.Like a screen being overturned, the steed fell to the ground.Misuiya Juro raised his right foot, stepped over the horse's back, flew to the left, got off the horse, and immediately drew his waist knife.The enemy raised his long sword from behind the shield and slashed at him. Juro felt that his waist sword was no match for the long sword, so he bent down and ran back.The enemy chased after him closely, seeing that the long knife was about to be chopped off, but he didn't cut it. Instead, he held the long knife under his armpit and stretched out his right hand to grab Misuiya Juro's helmet neck guard.He missed it all at once and ran away; he missed it three times in a row; and finally got caught the fourth time.Seeing that the neck guard, which had been attached to the helmet just now, was grabbed with the top plate of the helmet, Juro took the opportunity to escape.The other four cavalry hesitated for fear that their horses would be shot, and were watching from the sidelines.Misuiya Juro took advantage of the opportunity to hide behind these horses, and got a chance to breathe a little.The enemy didn't pursue any further, but leaned on a long knife in one hand, raised the neck guard of the helmet he had just caught in the other, and shouted loudly: "You probably have heard of it a long time ago, let you experience it today, I am the one who knows everything in the capital." The top chief evil seven soldiers guarding Jingqing." After registering his name, he withdrew back. On the side of the Ping family, the morale was boosted, and they said: "Don't let the evil seven soldiers be killed by the enemy, follow up!" So more than two hundred people rushed to the beach, folded their shields, and challenged the enemy: " Enemy soldiers, come here!" The judge saw it and said, "It's really annoying." He called Goto Hei and his son and the Kaneko brothers to be the vanguard, Sato Shirobei and Ise Saburo from Oshu to the left and right wings, and Tashiro to the crown. At the back of the hall, more than 80 riders rushed forward with loud shouts.Most of the Ping family's soldiers did not ride horses, but fought on foot. Fearing that they would be hit by horses, they retreated to the boats.The shields were thrown all over the ground and were trampled to pieces by the Yuan army.The Genji cavalry took advantage of the victory and pursued until the water submerged the horse's belly.When the judge was fighting in the depths of the water, he suddenly stretched out a scratching hook from the boat, trying to grab the neck guard of the judge's helmet. He grabbed it twice and three times, but was pulled away by Yuan Jun with his waist knife and long knife.At this moment, there was an unknown flaw, and the judge's bow was knocked down into the water by the scratching hook.The judge immediately leaned over and salvaged with the whip from left to right.Yuan Jun shouted: "Throw it away." But he finally got it in his hand, and happily returned to the formation.The veterans criticized him and said, "This is not a proper thing to do. Even if that bow is worth thousands of gold, it is not worth your life!" Two or three people can pull it apart. If it is a hard bow like that of my uncle, I let the enemy pick it up on purpose. If the enemy picks up this soft bow, they will say: This is the bow of Genji General Kuro Yoshitsune. ! For fear of being ridiculed, so I risked my life to get it back." After hearing this, everyone sighed! Let's say it was getting dark, Genji led the army back and set up a position in the wild mountains between Mure and Takamatsu.Genji's soldiers have not slept for three days. The day before yesterday, they set off from Watanabe and Fukushima. The wind and waves were so strong that they couldn't sleep; All day long.Therefore, all of them were exhausted, and some pillowed their helmets, some on the sleeves of their armor, and some on their quiveres, and fell into a deep sleep.Only Judge Yoshitsune and Ise Saburo stayed up.The judge climbed to a high place and watched the enemy's movement from a distance.Ise Saburo hides in the depression. If an enemy comes, he can shoot the enemy's horse belly with an arrow.On the other side of the Heike family, with Noto Shou as the general, they were going to attack at night with more than 500 horsemen, but because of the dispute between Jiro Koshiro Bingwei Moritsu and Umi Laojiro Moriokata to be the vanguard, it was already dawn before the attack.Genji didn't know what would happen if he attacked at night.But in the end he couldn't make the trip, which is probably the end of the Heike's luck.
