Chapter 361: There is an interception in front and a chasing soldier in the back
"Kill!" Two hours later, Hashiba Hideyoshi's hurried march finally came back, just in time for the melee of Ono Road.
"Ahh Belch! "Shibata's army had been attacking for a long time, and the soldiers were exhausted, and they were defeated by this sudden attack.
"Damn! Fall back! Retreat! "Sakuma Morimasa is now under attack from the back, and in a hurry, he immediately withdrew his troops in the direction from which he came.
"Sakuma Morimasa! Aren't you known as a ghost! Why did you run away in such a gloomy way! Dare to compete with me! "One of the samurai in the Hashiba army shouted loudly, his name was Yasuharu Wakisaka, and his father Yasuaki was killed in battle as a retainer of the Asai family. In the twelfth year of Eiroku (1569), at the age of fifteen, Anji Wakisaka joined Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and was appreciated by Hashiba Hideyoshi for his bravery.
"Retreat! Fast! Sakuma Morimasa was not stupid, he ignored the other party's provocation at all, and led the troops to quickly withdraw from Ono Road. This is also thanks to the fact that the defenders in the fortress have been wiped out, otherwise it would be difficult to leave.
"Damn! Pursue! Seeing that the other party ignored him, Wakisaka Yasuharu angrily chased after him first.
Sakuma Morimasa retreated all the way until he came to Mt. Shidake, and as long as he passed here, he could return to his main camp safely, where there was the army of Shibata Katsuie.
"Oh! Kill! "Suddenly! Thousands of people were killed from the road ahead, and an ambush army blocked their way back.
"Damn! Brothers! There is a blockade in front, and there are chasing soldiers in the back! We have nowhere to go! Go with me! There is a glimmer of life! Kill! Sakuma Morimasa gritted his teeth and was determined to break the boat!
"Oh!" Although the Shibata army was mixed with many peasant soldiers, the advantages of the standing were highlighted, and I saw the standing soldiers shouting in unison, moving forward with their lives!
"Always be in the front! Bow foot light volley! Block them! He was the right and left hand of his brother Hideyoshi, and he was very active in both the civil and military sides, and he made great contributions to external development and internal organizational restructuring, and even completed many things that even Hideyoshi could not do, or was unwilling to do.
Historically, Hideyoshi was able to ascend to the throne of the people of the world in the future, and his younger brother Hidecho was the biggest pillar behind the Toyotomi regime.
"Oh!" Yuchai was always ready to work, and he stepped forward to block the ferocious attack of the Shibata army. The castle on Mt. Shidake was also attacked under the leadership of the guard Haneda Nagato, who was a retainer of Hidecho Hashiba.
"Kill!" Wakisaka Yasuharu also led the pursuers to attack from behind, and it happened that Shibata's peasants and soldiers were all behind, and he was so rushed by his standing equipment that he was killed all over the field, with countless dead and wounded. What's more, they jumped directly into Yuwu Lake in an attempt to escape, but most of them sank to the bottom of the lake.
"Drink! Kill! Sakuma Morimasa stabbed Haneda Nagato in the stomach and killed him on the spot. But even the guards who won the cheap Yue Yan were to no avail, and they were attacked from three sides, with Hashiba Hidecho in front and Hashiba Hideyoshi in the back. After suffering losses in his active attack, he immediately closed his door under the command of his lieutenant general Kuwayama Shigeharu and used his bow to carry out long-range strikes.
"Ahh A Shibata Ashigaru was stabbed by three short guns, spurting blood from his mouth, and was pushed into Yuwu Lake, and suddenly a thick blood spring floated up at the bottom of the lake.
"Die!" Another Shibata Ashigaru howled and ran headlong into the three Hashiba Ashigaru, and the four of them scuffled in the water.
Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! The sound of iron artillery was loud, and Hashiba Hideyoshi also transferred his iron artillery team, and killed many peasant soldiers in the time, so that the Shibata army was on the verge of collapse.
"Calm down! Stabilization! There are not many of their iron cannons! Counterattack! Take advantage of the gap to fight back! "Sakuma Morimasa led the samurai team, like a firefighter fighting a fire, and went around to save the scene.
"Oh! Kill! Under his leadership, Shibata Army launched a small wave of counterattacks, but like the wave of the ebbing tide, one wave is not as good as the other.
"Drink! Ha! Yes! A Shibata samurai wielded a sword desperately and resisted desperately, and a dozen ashigaru people had surrounded him.
Puff puff! The spears in his hands stabbed together, fixing the warrior on the spot, and his unwilling expression filled his face.
"Excellent! Go on the offensive! Destroy the enemy's living force! Hashiba Hideyoshi was secretly happy, he had been waiting for this moment.
According to the strategy of the Takenaka Hanbei, lure the enemy deeper, crush the enemy's living forces, and then release the enemy troops who have lost their will to fight. After tailing, he used the rout to attack Shibata Katsuya's main camp and defeated Shibata Katsuya in one fell swoop!
Now... It was already about to succeed, and seeing that some of the peasant soldiers who had lost their will to fight began to cry, some of them were already standing on the spot. If they are given a way to live, it is estimated that they will run for their lives by any means.
"Kill! Kill! Get up! Get up for me! Meet the enemy! Greet... Belch! "A Shibata samurai tried to awaken the fading ashigaru, but an arrow hit him in the throat, and the number of Shibata samurai was rapidly decreasing, which was the source of the collapse.
"Is this the end of it... Damn it! "Sakuma Morimasa was full of remorse, and he knew that he should have obeyed the order to withdraw his troops, and that would still be a small victory. Now it's a fat man who eats it in one bite, and as a result, he bursts himself.
"Hahaha! Ghost Xuanfan! Are you still running? Finally caught by me, come on, come on, and accept my challenge like a samurai! "Wakisaka Yasuharu led the army to break through the perimeter and attack the belly of Shibata's army.
"Good! If you pull a cushion before you die, it's worth it! Brat! Look at the knives! Sakuma Morimasa gritted his teeth, and stepped forward with a knife to slash diagonally.
With a sudden, Wakisaka Yasuji cleverly took a step back, dodging the windy knife, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and it could be seen from the opponent's moves that Sheng Zheng's physical strength was greatly consumed.
"Die!" Wakisaka Yasuji jumped high and slashed down with a knife.
With a crisp sound of the bell, Sakuma Morimasa knelt on one knee and held the hand of the sword, and couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Hey, hey!" Yasuharu Wakisaka suddenly flew up with a kick that hit Sakuma Morimasa in the chest and kicked him to the ground.
"Die!" Wakisaka Yasuharu slashed down, Sakuma Morimasa quickly rolled sideways to dodge, turned over and stood up again, but the strong rise and fall of his chest betrayed his weakness.
"Die!" Wakisaka Yasuharu slashed again, Sakuma Morimasa couldn't dodge anymore, and he was about to die on the spot. Suddenly, a man rushed out of the spur, blocking the killing blow.
"Shengfeng!" Sakuma Morimasa saw clearly at this time that it was Shibata Katsutoyo, his mother was the sister of the Katsu family, and at the same time the adopted son of the Shibata Katsu family.
Shibata Katsuya is over 50 years old this year and has never had an heir, probably because he felt that he had no hope, so he adopted several adopted sons. They are Shibata Katsutoshi, Katsutoyo, and Katsumasa, Shibata Katsumasa is the third son of Sakuma Moritsu, that is, Sakuma Morimasa's younger brother.
"Saga-sama! Reinforcements are coming! Reinforcements are coming! Deputy General Shibata Katsutoyo shouted happily, now the relationship between their adopted sons is still very harmonious, far from the point where they will be jealous in the future and be used by Yushiba Hideyoshi.
"Aid... "Sakuma Morimasa looked behind him blankly, in the distance, under the moonlight, on the looming banner, the Shibata family's two geese gold pattern!
