Chapter 481: Don't lose your integrity

And the military strength under the command of the two samurai, when they saw that the leading samurai had been killed, the other party was so easy to take the leading samurai, then there was still the courage to fight again, although it was not to flee directly, but it was also retreated, wherever Katsusuke Tanaka went, the Miyoshi family army gave way to it, and the two hundred troops under his command, although the training was not as good as the other elites of the Takayama family, and the number was not as good as the other party, but seeing the main general's bravery, he asked for two samurai one after another, and his morale was greatly boosted, That's more than enough to make up for their lack of training. [].

I saw that on the battlefield, Tanaka Katsusuke rushed to the front, and the spear ashigaru behind him also lined up a neat team to attack continuously, pressing the Miyoshi army out of breath, until the last three formations pressed up, only to stabilize the corner, Nakagawa Kiyohide couldn't help but be anxious when he saw this, although he had thought that the Takayama army was not easy to deal with before the battle, but he didn't expect that its combat power would be so strong.

The other party and the army of his own family are both spears and arrows, but even if the two formations that were repelled by iron cannons and bows and arrows before are not counted, but the other party only used two hundred people, and he was still able to draw with the seven hundred ashigaru under his command, and it was precisely because of this that he felt very anxious, and now in addition to the one hundred ashigaru of his own formation, there is no military strength available, and the other party's two hundred ashigaru behind there are hundreds of ninja troops, and a hundred cavalry did not go into battle, if the Takayama clan is at this time, send two, even if it is one of the armies to attack, Then this is certainly not something that the Miyoshi family flag could have resisted.

Since even Nakagawa Kiyohide could think of this, how could the Takayama clan and Sanada Masayuki not see the battle situation clearly. When the clan saw that Tanaka Katsusuke was only 200 troops, the spear that was favored by himself was light, and he blocked the attack of the 700 troops of the Miyoshi Army. *.*//While feeling very relieved, he immediately opened his mouth and ordered: "Wasuka Masakatsu, Mizuse Uemon, you two quickly lead the ninja army to attack the Miyoshi army on the left and right." ”

"It's the lord." After speaking, I saw that the two of them divided the three hundred ninja army into two, each led one hundred and fifty people, and launched an attack on the three good troops from both sides.

And as soon as they launched an attack on the enemy, the Miyoshi army, which had just stabilized the corner, began to be chaotic again, and the enemy suddenly increased its troops by 300, and it was also attacked from the left and right. How do they resist.

Therefore, after only symbolically resisting for a moment, they all retreated in the direction of Nakagawa Kiyohide's main formation.

Although the remaining leading samurai still want to fight to the death against the Takayama army and be loyal to the Miyoshi family, no matter how hard they try. failed to stop the ashigaru who had no slightest fighting spirit, so in the end he had no choice but to retreat.

And the same is true of Nakagawa Kiyohide in this formation, although he kept shouting and ordering them to turn over and fight again, but the Miyoshi family Ashigaru took all his orders as the wind in his ears, and no one took the order, and not only that, the hundred Ashigaru troops in this formation saw that the army had retreated, and the enemy's hundreds of troops were covering up and killing later, getting closer and closer to him. How can they resist these hundred people, so a few of them began to flee, and as soon as they ran, the rest of them were of course unwilling to die in vain, seeing that someone was taking the lead, so more and more people escaped, until all of them escaped.

At this moment, Nakagawa Kiyohide no longer stopped the fleeing Ashigaru, and the battle was already lost without any suspense, even if his subordinate Ashigaru accepted the order. It is impossible to change the outcome of the battle against the Takayama Army again, and these ashigaru are not improvised peasant soldiers, but the backbone of the Miyoshi family, although this battle failed. However, as long as they can escape back to the Nagara River, then the strength of the lord in the decisive battle against the Oda family army will increase by one point. This can be regarded as the most important contribution I have made for the Miyoshi family. …,

And himself, he originally wanted to return to the Nagara River, to the lord seppuku to apologize, in order to prove his loyalty, although he is not the opponent of the Takayama clan, but, but do not lose the spirit of bushido, however, he thought about it, his seppuku can not have any impact on the enemy, rather than this, it is better to fight to the death with the enemy in front of him, if you can get a samurai from the other party, then not only is he not a loss, but also a good thing for the Miyoshi family.

Thinking of this, Nakagawa Qingxiu didn't hesitate, only to see him turn over and get on his horse, with a spear in his hand, standing in place, waiting for the mountain army to kill.

Soon the defeat of the Miyoshi family had passed, and the three of Tanaka Katsusuke, Wasuka Masakatsu, and Mizuse Uemon led the army to the front, and Nakagawa Kiyohide still stood there without moving.

If the other party does not attack him with all his strength, then the three of Bee Suga Masakatsu and the others will definitely kill him without hesitation, but the other party does not move, they are a little bit uneasy, so I saw that after the three of them drove the Miyoshi army away, they commanded the army under their command to surround it, and immediately reported to the lord, if the lord has the order not to leave this person, then they will never show mercy to him.

The clan had already seen everything that was happening ahead, so without waiting for the military situation to report, he led the remaining ashigaru to the front.

However, when he approached, he did not give any orders, but stared intently at the enemy in front of him under the protection of everyone.

The name Nakagawa Kiyohide is very familiar, although this person is not the first fierce general in the Miyoshi family, and his martial arts are worse than Iwacheng Yutong, one of the three good people, but it is also rare in terms of his bravery, and it is the same as his subordinate Hori Hidemasa, not only is his martial arts good, but even more rare is that he also has a lot of experience in internal affairs, but now most of his strength is only brave and brave, so his talent in that area has not been brought into play, if he dies like this, the clan is somewhat unbearable.

Thinking of this, I only heard him speak: "Nakagawa Qingxiu, now that all the troops under your command have fled, are you willing to surrender?" ”

"Hmph, since I didn't flee with the army, but waited for you here to arrive, I have already been outside the realm of life and death, and the only thing I don't accept is that the reason why you were able to win the battle just now was because of the elite of the ashigaru, everyone in the world said that the warriors of the Gaoshan family were brave, but I didn't see it just now, I don't know if any of you dare to fight!"

How could the clan not know what he was thinking now, it was nothing more than to provoke his own samurai to fight with him alone, he didn't want to give his family some losses, if he didn't know the ability of the retainers under the command of Lu Dao, he wouldn't agree, but even if Nakagawa Qingxiu's martial arts were good, but among the retainers present, I am afraid that more than half of them could beat him, not to mention the Dubian Shougang who had the reputation of Hanzo of the gun.

"Since you have asked for it, then I will fulfill it." After the clan sect finished speaking, he couldn't help but look at the retainers present. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
