บท 336: Carnage

A mess, that's what it was. At the centre of complete bloody chaos, there was but a single point – that of the Miura swirling formation.

Men came at them by the front and they were met with a wave of bullets as the soldiers span around and emptied their rifles, before disappearing inside the spiral to reload.

Arrows did their jobs too, as the Uesugi men drew their bowstrings and fired upon the enemy in a rushed manner. At such a close range, the projectiles weren't likely to miss.

The Hojo soldiers had hurried across the courtyard as though their rear's were on fire, straight into a swarm of bullets. Men fell in the thousands, and that was only the first few minutes of battle.

With a boldness, the Hojo generals took to the scene. They raised up their swords and sought to inspire the troops, knowing that if they were to make any progress, they would have to put everything into demolishing the swirling formation in front of them.
