Chapter 451: Elite Duel (7)

"Protect your lord!" The other two saw that the lord was being flanked, and while shouting loudly, they each mobilized troops to come to the rescue. ()

Although Matsunaga Shu was caught off guard, after all, the strength of his army was several times that of Mizuse's ninja army, and there were 200 ashigaru sent by each of the other two sides to support, so he quickly stabilized his position.

The nearly 200 ninjas under the command of Mizase are no better than the ninjas of the Takayama family, they are still very poor like most ninjas in the world, not only do they have no armor, but even the number of shuriken in their arms is extremely limited, so they soon have to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Matsunaga army, but in this way, their casualties are also multiplied.

Despite this, the ninja army under Minase still fought the enemy with all their might, and no one flinched.

However, now that the army has been revealed, there is no need to fight in the division of the army, so as not to be broken by the Matsunaga army.

Soon, the ninjas attacking behind the Matsunaga army began to deliberately move closer to the Mizuse Uemon in front of them after receiving the order. And at this moment, they were shocked by the battle in front of them, although many of them had not participated in a few real battles, but that did not mean that they did not know enough about it.

In their impression, how could the battle be so tragic, if it was an ordinary army, if it was surrounded by the enemy and the army was obviously at a disadvantage, it would basically break and flee without suspense, and this battle would not need to be fought at all, or if it was a moment of fighting, the winner could be distinguished.

But what they didn't expect was that not only did the Gao Mountain Army not retreat. And dare to attack an enemy several times their size, this is too crazy, no wonder the Takayama family has a great reputation despite its small territory. It seems to be completely spelled out by real knives and guns.

And when it comes to the Matsunaga Army, when these ninjas started in the Matsunaga family, they didn't think how elite they were, in their eyes, these thousands of ashigaru were just better equipped, even if they didn't have armor, they could fight with them, but now they don't dare to be so arrogant anymore, and the Matsunaga Army is so strong that it is still secondary. What made them feel unbelievable was that after the other party was successfully attacked by themselves, not only did not retreat, but quickly turned the situation back. After seeing the battle between such two strong armies, they realized that the battles they had seen or heard of before could not be compared to this time. And what was it was just child's play, and that's the real battle.

Although the morale of the Matsunaga army was still high, the ashigaru under his command were exhausted, and even if they continued to besiege the Takayama army. In the end, it can only be a situation where two defeats and injuries are lost, but if he is allowed to withdraw his troops like this. Then he will definitely not be reconciled, since it is not easy to find his traces this time. Then you must not let it go so easily, and although the loss of the army under your command is not small, but the Gao Mountain Army is also a heavy loss, as long as you persist, even if you can't kill all the Gao Mountain Army, you will trap them here alive.

Thinking of this, Matsunaga Xiu's eyes couldn't help but light up, there was no water source on the fast high ground where the Gaoshan Clan Sect was currently located, as long as he surrounded it with superior forces, I am afraid that in just two or three days, the Gaoshan Army would lose the ability to fight, and then he was trying to win the Gaoshan Clan, and it was not easy to annihilate the Gaoshan Army.

In this case, why should he let the army under his command increase casualties, the loss of the Gaoshan clan is rising, but he can't afford to lose, the Gaoshan clan has several sparrow houses that make money every day as an economic source, and he only has an income of more than 300,000 ten stone in the Yamato country, although it seems like a lot, however, the Yamato country is very chaotic, so in the case of ensuring that the territory is not good, at most it can only maintain the number of one thousand elites, and now there are two thousand elites who can't win from the front, if the elite is cut in half, In the future, then, it is better to temporarily recruit peasant soldiers as before. …,

Now the reason why these 3,000 elites can become an army is not because they have embezzled a large amount of funds from the Miyoshi family, and I am afraid that it will only be once in this life, and it will never be possible to encounter such an opportunity in the future.

Therefore, while courting the Takayama clan, the army under his command should also try to avoid losses, thinking of this, Matsunaga Hide's army has begun to slowly retreat, so he immediately ordered Takayama to lead four hundred troops to go around behind the Takayama army to prevent it from escaping.

However, what he didn't expect at all was that the Takayama Army had not used all its strength in such a critical situation, and when Takayama Youjin led the army was about to reach the back of the Takayama Army, suddenly the sky full of shuriken flew towards them, followed by fifty ninjas from behind the trees and rocks, and rushed straight to the Matsunaga Army led by Takayama Youjin.

An unexpected blow came suddenly, so the Matsunaga family Ashigaru led by Takayama immediately began to be chaotic, just after a few rounds of shuriken, the Matsunaga army lost fifty or sixty people, and Sasuke, the leader of the Takayama family ninja army who had been lying in ambush behind, saw that the enemy was already confused, and they were already exhausted, so how could he let go of this great opportunity, after the shuriken was used up, I saw him pull out the ninja knife behind him, pointed at the enemy in front of him, and shouted loudly: "Brother, now the other three teams of the ninja army have made contributions, Only we didn't have half the credit, and now the opportunity has come, to defeat the enemy army, so that the lord knows the way, and we are no worse than the other three ninja armies. Rush with me! ”

After speaking, I saw him rushing to the front, and the remaining four ninjas followed closely behind, and launched a charge against the three hundred Yu troops led by Takayama Youjin.

"Don't panic, block the enemy for me!" Although Takayama Youjin is not afraid of these ninjas in front of him, but how can the ashigaru under his command still have the physical strength to continue fighting, and it is in a hurry, so even if they are outnumbered and each other, but they are still killed by the energetic ninja army and retreat again and again, no matter how brave Takayama Ujin is, it will be useless, under the attack of Sasuke and other fifty ninjas, the Ashigaru of the Matsunaga family was killed and retreated, and soon came to the verge of collapse.

And Matsunaga Xiu, who had already disengaged from the Takayama Army, couldn't help but be shocked after receiving the Takayama Army's right command, if the rear army could not stand firm, then the Takayama Clan Sect would definitely take advantage of the time when the army under his command was repairing and fleeing from there, the battle had continued until now, and he could not help but continue, otherwise the hundreds of elites under his command would be lost in vain. Thinking of this, I saw Matsunaga Xiu bite it, and ordered loudly: "Toki Raiji, immediately lead two hundred troops to support the rear army, be sure to cut off the return route of the Takayama clan, quickly."
