"There is an ambush! Come on! Run! "In the Shirai River area of Settsu Province, 100 iron cannon ashigaru were surrounded by nearly a thousand enemies, and many slow iron cannon ashigaru were stabbed to the ground.

"Kill! Wipe them all out! "The one who led the ambush was Nakagawa Kiyohide, and the one who was ambushed was Wada Yumasa.

It turned out that after Nagai Michi's army joined up with Wada Yumasa, he suggested that he defend the castle, but Wada Yumasa's retainer Gunmasanobu advocated attacking, and Wada Yumasa adopted his advice, and as a result, he was attacked by an ambush arranged by Nakagawa Kiyohide, and the whole army immediately fell into collapse.

"Ahh

"Jun Zhengxin was begged for by the next!" A samurai holding a head high and shouting excitedly was the retainer of the Nakagawa family, Gentai Yamawaki.

The Wada army had already been ambushed and thrown into disarray, and in the melee Ibaraki Shigemasa was killed by Araki Murashige, and Nagai Michitoshi was killed by Araki's retainer Mita Densuke.

"Hahahaha! Wada Yumasa was begged for below! Wada Yumasa was also killed by Nakagawa Kiyohide, and because the heads of each family were killed one after another, Ikeda Tomomasa and others took advantage of the situation to take Ibaraki Castle and Akutagawa Mountain Castle.

Wada Yumasa's son-in-law, Wada Yuenaga, fled to the branch city of Takatsuki Castle, and resisted desperately with his retainer Takayama Shigetomo.

The Battle of Shirai and Kawahara resulted in the destruction of all the Hota coalition forces, which meant that the rebellion failed, and Shogun Yoshiaki's prestige was once again severely damaged, but the Ikeda army led by Arakimura Shigege also suffered considerable losses.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Attack!" At this time, under Takaya Castle, Hosokawa Nobumoto gave the order for a general attack.

Knock knock! The taiko drums sounded in unison, and the Hosokawa coalition army marched slowly with neat steps.

"Steady! Steady! Don't panic! "One of the three good three, the fierce general Iwanari Yutong, commanded Ashigaru to defend in the front.

"Engage the enemy!" Hosokawa Fujitaka, as a striker, was the first to receive the enemy, followed by Hosokawa Fujiken, Mibuchi Fujiei, and Akechi Mitsuhide's reserve team also continued to meet the enemy.

Crackling, the spears of both sides flapped against each other, forming a long line of soldiers.

"Assault!" Hosokawa Fujitaka saw that the left and right had already come up, and personally led the Hachimoto samurai to break into the enemy formation and drive away the peasant soldiers.

"Oh!" Seeing that the main general was so brave, the morale of the Hosokawa army was greatly boosted, shouting slogans, and plunged headlong into the belly of the Awa Miyoshi army.

"Damn! Resist me! Resist me! "Iwanari Yutong didn't expect that the Hosokawa army would be so fierce as soon as he came up, like a sharp knife, extremely sharp.

Hosokawa Fujitaka led the army to break through strongly, and Hosokawa Fujiken, Mibuchi Fujiei, Akechi Mitsuhide, and Hosokawa Haruyuki followed closely behind to cut the enemy's formation, and Miyoshi Yoshitsugu and Matsunaga Shu expanded their gains on both flanks.

"Ahh The casualty rate of the Awa Miyoshi army began to skyrocket, and it was completely unable to withstand the ferocious attack of the Hosokawa coalition army.

"No backsliding! No backwards! The Miyoshi Masaysu in the back tried his best to hold on to Ashigaru, but these peasant soldiers were not standing opponents at all, and they did not have strict discipline, so they were quickly defeated.

"Withdraw! Withdrawal! Fight again! Miyoshi Changyi, who was sitting in the Chinese army, reluctantly gave the order to withdraw the army.

"Chase! Don't let the enemy run away! Hosokawa Nobumoto gave the order to pursue, and the battle was won too easily. The perennial defeat of the three of them has already caused their prestige to fall to the bottom, and many people no longer listen to them.

"NND, defeated again, Miyoshi-sama, they are already old, and they no longer have the demeanor of the year." During the retreat, several mid-level samurai were complaining.

"That's it, I lost a few ashigaru in vain, and next time I said that I won't come to the war."

"That's right, I didn't see that last year, Miyoshi Masakatsu, the younger brother of Miyoshi Masakasu, surrendered, and even Lord Kasai Yoshikiyo, the Sanuki wealthy clan, surrendered. Moreover, after the war, he returned to his territory as if he had nothing to do, and Miyoshi-sama didn't even let out a fart. ”

"Let's go back this time, let's stay in Awa honestly, don't go anywhere, this Gyeonggi will go with them. Fight every year, lose every year, who can stand it. ”

"That's it, that's it—" As the samurai deserted, no one noticed that there was a wisp of white smoke rising from both sides of the road.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!

"Ahh

"Ugh!"

Puff, puff. The retreating Awa Miyoshi army was caught off guard, and Ashigaru fell in pieces. made the Apo Sanyoshi Army, which was already discouraged and fled all the way, even worse.

"My lord! My lord! Miyoshi-sama! "A group of samurai surrounded Miyoshi Nagayi, who had just been on his horse, and was too conspicuous, and was hit by a key blow, and was shot several times in the body.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!

"Ahh The group of samurai was then hit by a second round of iron cannons, killing several of them on the spot.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!

Immediately after the third and fourth rounds, the Hosokawa Iron Artillery Team started a three-stage attack tactic.

A large number of samurai were killed, and Ashigaru had no one to command, and they all became live targets one by one, and the scene was like hell on earth.

"Shoot!" Tsuda received an order to kill all living creatures. He is meticulously carrying out his full implementation.

"Ahh Don't fight, don't fight! I give up! I give up! With tears in his face, a ashigaru fell to his knees with a pop and begged for his life.

"Me too! I surrender too! More and more ashigaru threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground begging for mercy.

"Bastard! Stand up, all stand up for me! A samurai kicked a surrendered ashigaru to the ground, raising his sword to cut it down.

With a bang, he was shot in the center of his eyebrows and fell to the ground, frightening the people next to him to move away.

"Those who descend will not be killed!" As soon as Sanada Masayuki shouted loudly, he was shocked and the Zhezhi Qingguang next to him frowned, and the accurate shot just now was fired by him.

"Drop! Surrender! A frightened samurai also lowered his sword and fell to his knees trembling and begging.

"We also surrender, don't shoot! Don't shoot! The Awa Miyoshi army threw down their weapons one after another, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and the Hosokawa army, which caught up behind, began to tie up the prisoners.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Tennoji Castle in Izumi Province, where the victorious Hosokawa coalition was resting, and the heads of each family gathered in Ohiroma to listen to the report of the battle.

"Lord, Miyoshi Changyi was killed on the spot, Miyoshi Masayasu asked to surrender, and Iwasari Yutsu's whereabouts are unknown. More than 3,000 people were killed on the spot, and the rest either surrendered or fled, and our army won a great victory! Honda Masanobu reported the results of the summary to Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"Hmm... Not bad. Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at the list of prisoners listed in the codex, and on this occasion he wiped out the three of Miyoshi.

"My lord, what should we do with these captured samurai and ashigaru?" Sanada Masayuki asked everyone's thoughts.

"Escort the samurai into Beijing, wait for the lord's fate, and report the merits of each family to the lord. As for Ashigaru, he let the Awa Miyoshi family redeem it in the form of a ransom, and the proceeds were distributed to the families who participated in the war without taking a penny. Thank you again for your cooperation and support. In the end, Hosokawa Nobumoto bowed his head to express his gratitude.

"Hosokawa-sama's words are serious, we should be like this, it should be our gratitude to Hosokawa-sama for his kindness." Matsunaga Xiu and others also returned the gift, and the ransom alone made them a lot of money. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
