Chapter 179: The Decisive Battle of Sister River (4)

The turbid aura of the battlefield filled the air, each fighting for their own beliefs.

With the death of the real handle father and son, the Asakura army is already powerless, and the peasants and soldiers have fled one after another, and there is no possibility of turning the tables, but...

"Echizen warriors! I'm determined to die with Tokugawa Ieyasu! There is a willingness to help! Naosumi raised the wild knife in his hand, and the real handle swore not to retreat!

"I'm willing to go to the Yellow Springs with Lord Mako!" About 100 Echizen samurai spoke in unison.

"Good! Thank you very much! In the next life, I will repay you for your kindness! Target! Tokugawa Ieyasu! Let's! Let's die together! Kill! "Naosumi led a hundred Echizen samurai and launched a decisive charge.

"Quick! Stop them! Swear to protect the lord to the death! Matsudaira Yasutada led the Tokugawa family's flag warriors to meet him.

"Die!" Naosumi Masakat rushed over first, slashing down a Mikawa samurai with a knife in his hand.

"Don't you think about it! Unless you step on a corpse below! Tokugawa retainer Shimizu Hisakawa let out a loud shout, blocking Naosumi Majo.

"Drink! Die! "The real handle Naocheng raised his knife and slashed down diagonally, Shimizu Hisakawa didn't even dodge, he also raised his knife and slashed down, a move that hurt both sides.

"Ugh!" "Ahh

The two of them stumbled one by one, and both were stabbed.

"Go away!"

"Don't think!"

"Drink! Die! "Whew, the two of you come and go, give up defense, you slash each other with a knife.

Burst! "Uhh

With a pop, he fell to the ground.

"Block... I... Die! Naosumi gasped and walked towards Tokugawa Ieyasu step by step.

"I want to pass! Let's get over this level! Tokugawa retainer Kato Shoji held a sword in front of him.

"Die!" Without saying a word, he rushed over, blood spilling down his legs and on the ground, forming a dark red line of blood.

"Drink!" The two gritted their teeth and fought for their lives, and both knives were inserted into each other's abdomen.

"Uhh Naosumi Majo drew the knife with all his might, knocked over Kato Massaji, and then put the knife in both hands, half-kneeling on the ground and panting.

"That's it." Yasukei Amano, a retainer of the Tokugawa family, drew his knife and walked over slowly, about to cut off the head of Naosumi with a real handle.

"Rest the injury of Lord Zenji!"

"Kill! Take the head of Tokugawa Ieyasu! ”

A group of Echizen samurai also broke through the defense at this time and rushed up.

"Drink! Kill! Yasukei Amano took the trio, but was also slashed to the ground by an Echizen samurai, and the Echizen samurai finally rushed to the front of Tokugawa Ieyasu.

"Warriors of the Three Rivers! Fight to the death! Kill me! Tokugawa Ieyasu himself swung his sword into battle with the enemy, and blood was scattered all over the ground, with stumps and broken arms under his feet, heads rolling, and people stepping on the ground as if they were stepping into an infernal hell.

"Kill!"

After a life-and-death struggle, there was no one in front of Tokugawa Ieyasu, and Naosumi Majo had already fallen to the ground with blood, and almost all the 100 Echizen samurai were wiped out, and the Tokugawa family won a miserable victory.

Bang! Suddenly a gunshot rang out!

Tokugawa Ieyasu's body shook and his hand wiped his shoulder, which was stained with blood.

"My lord! Lord! Protect the Lord! Seeing this, Matsudaira Yasutada hurriedly blocked Tokugawa Ieyasu with his body, and Tokugawa Ieyasu had already fallen to the ground and fainted at this time.

"Quick! Evacuate! The Lord was assassinated, and the Tokugawa army, which was about to be victorious, immediately fell into chaos, and Tadaji Sakai and others quickly fled the battlefield with Tokugawa Ieyasu.

"Hahaha! Tokugawa Ieyasu has been taken! Tokugawa Ieyasu has been taken! Kill back! Kill! Rokkaku Yoshiji laughed, it was him, he sent Sugitani Zenjubo to assassinate Tokugawa Ieyasu just now, and the shot just now was fired by Sugitani.

"Oh!" The originally defeated Asakura army regained its morale, turned over and beat the water dogs, chasing after the Tokugawa army's ass and beating it fiercely.

*************

"Newspaper... The Tokugawa army was defeated, and now the Asakura army has outflanked it from the flank and is attacking the main camp of the main hall! ”

"What! The Tokugawa family was defeated? How is this possible! Isn't it supposed to be a pyrrhic victory? What the hell is going on! "Hosokawa Nobumoto was stunned, this is not at all the same as in history, originally according to the normal situation, it should have been a tragic victory for the Tokugawa family and a big victory for the Oda family.

Hosokawa Nobumoto immediately realized that something was wrong and hurriedly observed the situation on the battlefield with a telescope. Ever since he used the Mino trio as reinforcements to reinforce the Oda army, the Asai army was completely surrounded by too deep and was now about to collapse.

The Oda family's main camp is now also surrounded by the Asakura army, but seeing that Oda Nobunaga's horse seal has not moved at all, it seems that he intends to hold his position.

"Yes, the situation is not very clear, but I probably know that His Royal Highness Tokugawa was shot, and his life and death are unknown, so the army is defeated." Hattori Masaaki knelt on the ground, still reporting to Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"Tokugawa Hall shot? Still alive and dead? How so? "It's a pity that no one can answer this question from Nobumoto Hosokawa.

"Hosokawa-sama, don't worry about this problem, hurry up and rescue the lord, leave it to me here." Niwa Nagahide said at the right time, after the Hosokawa army is transferred here, only his 2,000 troops will remain, which is on par with the defenders of Yokoyama Castle, which seems to be slightly insufficient.

"In this case, then immediately lead the army to raid the Asakura army, first defeat the enemy behind the lord, and relieve the siege of the lord." Hosokawa Nobumoto immediately made a decision and began to dispatch his troops.

"Yokoyama Castle may take the opportunity to go out of the city for a decisive battle, they have 500 iron artillery troops, and they will leave 200 bow warriors for Niwa-sama to deploy. They have excellent archery skills, and can hide the full-time combat iron artillery team in the army. "Now that the pattern on the battlefield has been broken, Hosokawa Nobumoto has to defend against the defenders of Yokoyama Castle.

"Don't worry, I'll leave it to you, and I'm sure to resist the surprise attack of Hengshan City to ensure that the army has no worries." Niwa Nagahide looked solemn and began to organize the Niwa team to set up a horse fence and prepare to defend Yokoyama Castle's attack.

*************

"Kill!"

Outside Nomura, shouting and killing the sky, the banner fluttered wildly, and this was the place where the Oda army and the Asai army fought a decisive battle.

Originally, the fierce general of the Asai family, Isono Yuanmasa, had already broken through to the Sakuma team, and was about to attack Oda Nobunaga's main camp.

Thousands of Oda troops suddenly rushed from both sides, surrounded them in groups, and after a long period of continuous fighting, the troops were already exhausted and in chaos.

Seeing that the Asai army was about to collapse, the peak turned around, and the Asakura army suddenly appeared behind Oda Nobunaga's main formation, and instead formed a front and rear attack with the Asai army in front.

Bang bang bang! At Oda Nobunaga's main position, the sound of iron cannons was frequent.

Sasa Narimasa commanded the Iron Artillery Corps, and repelled a wave of attacks by the Asakura army, and the order he received was to stand by and wait for reinforcements, and not allow a single step back.

"Kill! Retreater, slash! "Sakuma Nobumori commanded the two thousand ashigaru of his own team, desperately resisting the onslaught of the Asai army, and he was the last of the Oda army.

"Kill! Destroy them! The Mino trio clamped down on both sides of the Asai Army, constantly compressing their movement space.

"Victory is at hand! Never back! Kill! Isono's face was flushed, and he was out of breath after a long battle, but he was still gritting his teeth and persevering, and now was the most critical moment.

"Rush! Rush me! Tokugawa Ieyasu has been taken over, and Oda Nobunaga has been surrounded! Attack it now! Chop off Oda Nobunaga's head! Rokkaku Yoshiharu commanded the Asakura army to fight on the front line, and because of his exploits, he won the approval of Asakura Keiken, and temporarily handed over the vanguard to his command.

"Nether Iron Rider!"

"Invincible!"

Rokkaku Yoshiji looked behind him in astonishment, the rolling dust...
