	From the 14th century, auxiliary infantry [[Soldier\|troops]] (nobushi, nobuseri, ~~{{Wiki\|~~ashigaru}}) were increasingly called upon during wars to unhorse mounted warriors. These men were armed with [[Long weapon\|pole weapons]] to cut the legs of horses, set ambushes where slings were sometimes used, or threw stones from a height. From the second half of the 16th century, these troops were better supervised and trained to maneuver together and were especially equipped with [[firearm]]s, forming musketeer corps.
