Emishi horse archer

Post by Badnorth »

Unit description : The Emishi Horse Archers were members of an ancient Japanese tribe who primarily hunted various wildlife and fought each other. Like other horse archers, they relied on distance and speed to succeed in combat but carried a variety of weapons in case enemies got too close. They wore a set of iron lamellar armor that made them even more difficult to put down in a conflict and they were their people's most iconic soldiers. They are perhaps best known for wagering a 38 year war against the Yamato army when they invaded and held the advantage for the majority of the war. It was only after the Yamato adopted their tactics that they were finally beaten and forced to surrender or migrate out of their territories.

"When they receive a favour, they forget it, but if an injury is done them they never fail to revenge it. Therefore, they keep arrows in their top-knots and carry swords within their clothing. Sometimes, they draw together their fellows and make inroads on the frontier. At other times, they take the opportunity of the harvest to plunder the people. If attacked, they conceal themselves in the herbage; if pursued, they flee into the mountains."
— Nihon Shoki
