As Shiba's men approached the bridge, Hirota's crack troops 
jumped out of their cover, and opened fire, cutting down the 
first line of Shiba's men.  They fell back momentarily, but 
before Hirota's men had time to reload their weapons, Shiba 
orderd another charge, his men streamed across the river, and 
Hirota's men quickly fell back in hope to get another shot and 
possibly find substantial cover.  

Shiba's push was far too fast, as his men wern't armoured they could move quicker than Hirota's Arquebusers, Shiba's men soon drove them into the ground.
