168

Human life should not be so low, but in this troubled world, no one, even the emperor, who is a descendant of the gods from the perspective of righteousness and mythology, has lived a precarious life for a long time.

His Majesty the Emperor has put aside the matter for now, and although I have now used the qualifications of the Lord's Palace, for various reasons, I have never really met this boss who has a subordinate relationship in politics and official position.

At some point, the sky was obscured by dark clouds, and the intensity of the line of sight in the valley of Kurigala suddenly dropped a lot, which just gave the enemy a perfect opportunity to retreat.

Is this going to rain?

Anyway, the weather in Japan is so weird and changeable, I don't know when I can surprise you with a "big" surprise.

After my father handed me the fan, he rode straight back to his main camp.

"It's about time. Everybody!! "I finally got up.

Sure enough, it moved like a gale. I took the reins with my officers and rode into the valley.

"Cut off the enemy's retreat! Don't let them retreat to Tonami Mountain. "While giving the order, I ordered the generals to rush at the enemy.

At this time, the main force of the Shibata Army, led by Sakuma Morimasa, had completely defeated the Saito Army and was moving towards its rear.

From four o'clock in the afternoon to the end of the day, the Uesugi army was defeated like a mountain, and the generals were killed one after another.

The blood-stained Chisaka soldier Jingqin finally found Saito Asanobu's body in the midst of the chaos.

"What a mess, Saito-sama."

Because Mizoo Shobei and Kuwayama Shigeharu were killed one after another, Saito Asanobu was separated from his bannermen, and Tanaka's vision was not obvious, so no one noticed that there was a corpse of a famous general under the feet of their comings and goings.

"The tide is over! But just dead! It's really unacceptable."

Chisaka Keikin, a retainer trusted by Uesugi Keitor, believed that although he lost in this kind of melee, he had to win back a little "spoils" for the Uesugi family in this battle, and his previous battle policy had not been accepted by the stubborn Saito Asanbu, thus losing many good opportunities.

"I'm sorry, Saito-sama!"

He abandoned his horse, threw away his helmet, and his cloak came to the side of the chief commander Saito Shimononomoru Asanobu, who had died and fell to the ground.

"This is my last effort, blessed by King Bishamen, I must succeed!"

After cutting off Saito Asanobu's head with a rib cha, Chisaka Keito walked straight towards the enemy in the distance with it in one hand and a bloody knife in the other. His whole body was covered in blood, and although he had been injured in five places, his voice was still high-pitched: "Where is the lord?" I came to see the lord at the head of Saito Asanobu in my lower hand. Where is he? ”

By the way, across from him happened to be us.

What's worse is that the soldiers at the front of the guard can't tell whether they are friends or foes because of their dark vision and the blood-stained faces of the other party...... Even so, they actually believed it and let him come!

They dodged a way and let him pass. He finally spotted the enemy's general—and that was me!

At this time, he noticed the other party's flag - aqua bellflower!

It doesn't seem to be Shibata Katsuya, it doesn't matter, if you can kill Akechi Mitsuhide, you won't suffer!

"Zhengchun, look at the sky, is it going to rain?" I asked the attendant on the side.

"Facial paralysis man" Honda Masashi did not have any expression as always: "Returning to the young master, it seems that yes." ”

At this moment, I only heard someone say: "Young master, someone wants to see you, and he brought the head of the enemy general Saito Asanobu." ”

"The head of Saito Asanobu?" The moment I looked back, I only heard a voice of "Young Master, danger" Wise Guangchun in the darkness jumped up and rushed towards the comer.

"Ahh ”

"Humph!" Wise Guangchun snorted coldly, "Who will be fooled by this kind of low-level trick?!" ”

Chisaka Keijin stuck his knife on the ground and threw down his head in a dejected manner. Akechi Mitsuharu stabbed him in the shoulder, digging deep into the bone, blood gurgling out of his armor. His expression was a little distorted, and he wanted to laugh and cry.

"You...... Want to put my head ...... Haha......" he said as he staggered to Akechi Mitsuhide, "Come on, take my head......" Then, he suddenly collapsed in the grass.

"Young master, it's really dangerous!" Akechi Mitsuharu cut off Chisaka Keikin's head and took it along with Saito Asanobu's.

I looked at this uncle and didn't understand what was going on......

His father, Akechi Mitsuhide, was discussing the military situation with Shibata Katsuie in the main camp, and at this time, he was covered with a "spider herald" (eh!). It's really nostalgic, how long has it been since the Spider Herald has appeared? In reality, it's been almost half a year) to report:

"General, the wise right will be the supervisor of Lord Xinguang, and the two enemy generals will be defeated."

"Oh, that's good," my father said, holding up the teacup without any emotional fluctuations, and it is not uncommon for me to be able to capture the flag and stand alone at this age.

On the contrary, Shibata Katsuya was very interested: "It's really a tiger father without a dog, congratulations to Lord Akechi...... But who is being taken from? ”

"Chisaka Keijin and Saito Asanobu!"

"Poof! Ahem......"

A mouthful of tea squirted out of his father's mouth, and Shibata Katsuie was dumbfounded.

Both of them looked at the spider herald kneeling on the ground in disbelief, and the latter felt uncomfortable.

Could it be that Wise Shinko is really that **? The enemy's main and deputy generals all let him?

At this time, the guard outside the door said loudly: "General! It's raining! ”……

When he received the news that Shibata Katsuie's reinforcements had arrived, Uesugi Keitora couldn't help but curse angrily: "Bastard! However, this was not a curse against the enemy, but the anger of Saito Asanobu and his pity for the veteran who was stubborn and did not obey the order to withdraw his troops.

Although the camp in the Kurigara Valley was only eight miles away from the main camp in Tonbayama, he could neither abandon Saito Asanobu and withdraw his troops, nor could he attack alone.

"What else do you two have to say?!!! He looked coldly at Honjo Shiranaga and Kawada Nagakin, who were kneeling on the ground.

It was precisely because of the escape of these two men (Kawada Nagajin did not rush to the rescue of Saito after the defeat) that caused the destruction of the vanguard army...... Not only Uesugi Jinghu, but many generals in this formation are glaring at these two people through gritted teeth.

The two adults begged desperately for mercy, but none of the generals on either side put on a good face.

On the contrary, Naoe, who had just entered the tent, spoke: "Lord! I have a word, I don't know ......"

"If you want to speak, tell it as soon as possible!" Uesugi Jinghu said angrily, but he was muttering in his heart, why hasn't this guy left yet?!

"I just went down the mountain to run errands (Uesugi Keihu: What are you doing?) ), met a few Chinese people from Vietnam. ”

"Huh? Odd? Now that the Vietnamese and Chinese soldiers are in chaos, aren't all the local people hiding in the mountains? ”

"Lord, they say that they are Toyama people, and they once helped Qianxin Gong to attack Yuezhong, and now they have important information to tell the lord, I wonder if the lord can meet them?"

"Toyama? Lord Shinbata," he looked at the Shigeta family, who was more familiar with this side, "When you followed the Kenshin Gong out of Zhengyuezhong, what kind of people were the Toyama people?" ”

"Back to my lord! The Toyama people are a group of people who are rarely close to their own family in Vietnam, and they helped when they were going to the west for Jinggong. ”

"That means they're reliable?"

"That's right."

"Then let them come...... You two will give me a step aside to reflect! ”

"Uesugi-sama, we found that Maeda Toshiie, who landed in eastern Echichun, was leading more than 5,000 men and horses, and they were not burning and looting along the way, but approaching Mt. Tonba...... It should be less than thirty miles now. ”

"Nani?!"

Like a thunderbolt from the sky, everyone can be stunned on the spot.

Uesugi Jinghu, who was the first to react, glanced at the map, "So, the enemy has now arrived at Eju Mountain, and he will soon be able to reach the Wolf Shooting Plain?!" ”

In ancient times, there were many wolves in Mt. Tsunaba, because the samurai at that time always came here to hunt wolves in the autumn season, so it was called Wolf Hunting Plain, and it was only less than 15 miles away from Mt. Tonami.

"Damn Shibata Katsuie, he let Maeda Toshiya land in Echito, I thought he was just trying to disrupt our vision, it turned out that he wanted to surround us......"

"But," asked the head of the color department, "when Maeda Toshiya landed, there were only less than 3,000 people around him, and if there were many people, it would be easy to be suspicious, how did he have more than 5,000 men and horses now, and why did the people of Vietnam and China support him so much?" ”

"No, my lord, the local people don't support these outsiders very much, but the Maeda Toshiya echoed everywhere along the way, and all the people who joined him would be rewarded with a fief of five thousand stones after victory, and ten thousand stones would be rewarded for their military exploits!"

Maeda Toshiya is really generous, as long as you join him, no matter whether you have made military achievements or not, you can get a fief and become a samurai, such a good thing, who doesn't do it?

"Many villages are in chaos now, and the village chiefs of several villages are spreading the word among the villagers. They also said: If any villagers do not want to join the gang, they will be killed! If it is inconvenient to do it, report it to the former Tian Lijia immediately. He went to kill these people to prevent the news from leaking out...... In this way, they threaten the villagers of nearby villages everywhere. ”

At this time, Uesugi Jinghu seemed to have forgotten himself, staring intently at these people.

If this is the case, the enemy will not be able to bear it anymore, and will come to attack him secretly, and the means he will take are also sneak attacks that he did not anticipate. If the enemy tries to take a big sneak attack, you should really be prepared in advance.

At this time, Naoe continued: "My lord, there is a plan below...... Why don't you let Kawada and Honjo deal with the enemy, how about making meritorious contributions? ”
