Maeda Toshiya didn't know how many miles he had traveled along the way.

"Report!" Suddenly, a cavalryman came up to him with a rolling belt.

Maeda Toshiya was taken aback and hurriedly leaned over. "Why are you so alarmed! Wait a minute......"

Unexpectedly, the cavalryman turned a deaf ear and said loudly: "General, the young lord who was camped in the south was attacked by the enemy, and now he has been completely defeated. ”

"Nani?!" Maeda Toshiya was startled, and the generals next to him, who were basically all colored, were also stunned.

At this time, a few more people arrived, and the person in the lead did not look very good.

"General! I'm Takehisa Geya! I have important information. ”

"Come here!" Maeda Toshiya bit his lip and commanded sharply. There was a faint sense of foreboding in his heart, and his whole body seemed to be cramping. Mao Wu Takehisa is a military general specially assigned to his son, so now he is seriously injured and rushed over, can it be said that he ...... Once the benefits are unpredictable, how can I be worthy of Ah Song, who is still waiting at home?

Maeda Toshiya and his wife Amatsu have a very good relationship, which is not much to say.

At this time, Takehisa Takehisa, who was like ashes, staggered to Maeda Toshi's house with the support of his attendants.

"Your injuries are not serious! Guy who doesn't fight, stand up! ”

"Yes."

"What's wrong with the young master? What about life and death? ”

Takehisa Moya just turned his gaze to the air in a daze. "Quick, go for reinforcements......"

"Life or death?"

"I don't know...... If it's too late, I'm afraid I'll ......"

"Who the hell is the attacker? Is it Uesugi Keiho himself or ......" Maeda Toshiya suddenly stopped. He had already seen that the unlucky Takehisa Maoya was extremely tired, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty for his repeated questioning, "What are you guys doing in a daze?!" Why don't you hurry up and bandage the hairy house, and then ......"

The generals suddenly felt that their generals were very pitiful, and they immediately came to their senses and quickly returned to their respective queues.

All of them rushed into action.

"Lead the horse! March south! ”

"Yes."

"Don't grind, hurry!"

The sun overhead had been obscured by clouds a few days earlier. Autumn is crisp, and if the war goes well, what a pleasant time it would be. The young leaves on the branches are swaying, and the breeze whispers in the ears, which makes people deeply intoxicated.

Maeda Toshiya seems to have completely forgotten the physical pain caused by the fight with the enemy just now. I'm sorry for the chief! An ominous feeling lingered in his heart, and he rode out on horseback in a hurry.

Even military rookies who have never fought will understand that the plain terrain is the most suitable for field battles, and whether the cavalry of the Uesugi family is blown out, they are trained by real experience, not only Maeda Toshinaga, but even Maeda Toshiya and them have also fallen into a bitter battle.

Bursts of gunfire rang out around Maeda's house, and he had entered the heart of the battlefield. Suddenly, a bullet grazed his ear and hit the trunk of a pine tree to his left.

"General, are you alright?"

"It doesn't matter, it didn't hit...... Still, it's dangerous. ”

The sky was clear, and there were constant shouts of killing around him. Maeda Toshiya also knows very well that it was mostly his delusion, but this is enough to show how embarrassed he is. He couldn't help but curse his selfishness.

Is it necessary to do this for the sake of my son...... I'm joking about the honor of the Owari samurai, right?!

By this time, the situation of the war had completely changed.

The "golden pair" of Nagami Kawada and Shigenaga Honjo attacked Toshinaga Maeda again. This time, Shinbata Shigeie also rushed to reinforce him, and he led 3,000 elite soldiers, equipped with 600 iron cannons, and launched a fierce attack on Okumura Chofuku, who had been constantly repelling the attacks of his comrades.

Maeda Toshinaga and Okumura Nagafu were already exhausted, and the sudden intervention of the Shigeya Shinbata caught them off guard for a while. And the defeated Kawada Naga and Honjo Shigenaga, in order to save face and defend the honor of the Echigo samurai, turned around again and pounced like evil spirits.

In fact, the most embarrassing thing is that the young master Maeda Toshicho has grown. At a young age, he is not only unfamiliar with war, but also the son who is deeply loved by the Maeda Toshika, the future "bearer" of the Maeda family, and always needs the care of the surrounding military generals, which undoubtedly adds endless trouble to everyone in the predicament.

If the Maeda Toshiya miscalculated, I'm afraid that's it. He himself was limited by this from the beginning, and the heroic and loyal Okumura Changfu was also too concerned about the situation of the young master to exert his own strength.

If he decisively abandons Maeda Toshicho and rushes to the back to join the Maeda Toshiie, the two roads will be combined into one road, and he may be able to compete with Uesugi's soldiers and horses. However, the sense of mission as a retainer of the Maeda family tree told him that he must not give up the young master!

At this time, his troops could no longer withstand the onslaught of the enemy, and in the blink of an eye, they were crushed.

In this way, everything was included in Uesugi Keikatsu's previous plan.

Shigejia Shinbata took the lead, chasing and attacking Okumura Changfu on the one hand, and attacking Maeda Toshicho on the other. "Hum Ha two generals" Kawada Nagami and Honjo Shigenaga (I'm starting to get a little tired of writing about these two guys) followed suit and carried out the first ...... on the enemy Whether it was the first round of attacks, no one can say.

“TMD！ This group of people is because I see that I am young, and they bully me, right, damn it!! ”

And Maeda Toshicho, who had already killed the red-eyed, naturally refused to retreat, desperately carried out a stubborn counterattack, and in a bloody battle with his sword, he had already hacked two enemies to death.

At this time, Uesugi Keikatsu had already led his generals to rush towards the Wolf Shooting Plains like a fierce tiger, like a sharp knife inserted between the two men and horses of Maeda's father and son, who were about to rush to converge, and neatly prevented the meeting of the two armies.

In fact, the gunshots and shouts that Maeda Toshiya vaguely heard earlier were not illusions, but the stormy waves set off when the Uesugi family's cavalry division attacked.

The fourth group of defeated soldiers Maeda Toshiie encountered on the road was only four, and by the time they collapsed in front of their horses exhausted, most of the generals around Maeda Toshiie, and even some of the loyal Konoe banners, had long since disappeared. It seems that hand-to-hand combat, which keeps everyone in a state of madness, has dragged them in.

"Which unit are you from? Don't panic, you have to resist! "It sounds like it's for Maeda Toshiya himself.

The four of them seemed to be master and servant. The man who looked like the master was about twenty-two or three years old, and his status did not seem to be very high, and he seemed to be just the head of a guard. He was wounded by a gunshot wound and covered his abdomen with his hands in pain.

"Don't you remember us, General...... We are Okumura-sama's subordinates of the Flag ......," the young man stared blankly at Toshiya Maeda.

"Then why are you here, you should protect Okumura-sama...... Could it be that Okumura-sama has ...... Your injuries are fine, and you must persevere. ”

However, the young man's head drooped suddenly, and a waiter who was nearly fifty years old next to him hurriedly held him up, turned back to Maeda Toshiie, and said, "General, you are right...... Okumura-sama has died in battle. ”

"Okumura Mamoru died?"

"Yes. Lord Okumura was immediately directing everyone to block the enemy, when his head was suddenly pierced by a cold gun, and he fell off his horse on the spot, leaving no words...... And the young master, he has already suffered an accident......"

"What do you say?! The young master is dead? Maeda's voice trembled.

"Yes, the head of the young lord was taken on the spot by Qingtian Babei, a subordinate of Ganji Jingji."

The guard tilted his head and died.

Maeda Toshiya's eyes suddenly darkened. He knew that defeat was decided, and in an instant, his ankle suddenly hurt again. At this moment, there was a sudden shouting from a hill not far away. The Maeda army collapsed, and the Uesugi army was overwhelming again, and the pressure was all over the shoulders of the Maeda Toshiya.

It's finally time to come! The battle-hardened Maeda Toshiya seemed to see through everything for a while. While the retinue busily carried the bodies of the newly dead guards into the grass, Maeda Toshiie watched intently at the soldiers who were desperate to kill the enemy.

I saw that everyone was bent on their waists, tiptoeing, as if they were about to fall, no matter how they looked at it, they were extremely embarrassed and extremely anxious. If you continue like this, I am afraid that in less than half an hour, your physical strength will be exhausted. In fact, it is no wonder that officers and men who take a break after winning a victory are most likely to fall into anxiety.

A soldier attacking in this state may regain his courage if he encounters an opponent who is surprisingly weak and will collapse at the first touch, otherwise he will either fall to the ground exhausted with all his might, or fall into agitation and perish.

"Bang bang bang bang......" This time, the gunshots sounded as if they were right in front of you.

"Danger!" The attendant who led the horse saw that it was not good, and immediately put the war horse-drawn people of the Maeda Toshiya in the grass. It turned out that the figure of the vanguard of the enemy had already appeared under the hills.

In the plains, the bright white sunlight and the shadows of flowers and plants are dappled and dizzying. I don't know what Maeda Toshiya was thinking, he suddenly stopped his horse, frowned, and dismounted. The entourage hurriedly rushed to deliver the cushions, and before they could reach the front, Maeda Toshiya was already sitting cross-legged on the ground. "I'm sorry for you, Ah Song, I hurt that kid ...... Richha."

The retinue formed a circle, keeping an eye on the movements around them. In everyone's opinion, the lord is like this, I am afraid that he heard the news of the death of his beloved son Maeda Toshinaga in battle, and he was extremely sad.

"Now that my son is gone, and my most faithful retainers are gone, what reason do I have to live? Let me go with me...... Ason, please forgive me. ”

At this time, Maeda Toshiya wanted to go to the battlefield desperately, but he couldn't do it, his ankle hurt so much that he couldn't even ride a horse, and it was unimaginable to go on foot. It seems that the Maeda Toshiya has to prepare for the final destination.

"Ah, the enemy is coming......"

"Come over if there's a seed!"

A voice suddenly sounded beside Maeda Toshiya, and before the words fell, a samurai had quickly broken through the guard's cordon and rushed to the front at once. "I know you, you're the Maeda Toshiya known as 'Gun and Left', right? No offense! ”

Maeda Toshiya raised his head, stared at the samurai, and said angrily, "Who are you, report your name!" He scolded loudly, with an awe-inspiring expression.

"The Uesugi family is long, and it is !! to accept life"

"Hahaha, if you have the ability, just come and get it!"

Ten minutes later, the head of the Maeda Toshiya was also taken away, and the samurai around him were killed.

However, no one came to congratulate them, only the corpses on the ground seemed to be clapping their hands and laughing in unison. Regardless of the fact that he was seriously injured in the fight, he spread his legs like crazy and rushed towards the banner of Uesugi Keitor.

There was silence all around, and a large swarm of flies poured in from nowhere, and they all landed on the headless corpse of the Maeda Toshiya exposed to the sun, and sucked greedily......

The outcome was decided, and in the battle of Wolf Plain, the night attack of the Uesugi army was successful, and the Maeda army was completely annihilated.
