At this moment, even if the heavenly soldiers and generals come, they can no longer rescue the Maori army in a desperate situation, not to mention the Kobayakawa and Murakami coalition forces that are still wandering outside Yukiyama Castle, the Date army occupies an absolute advantage, they wait for work, with more than 1,000 soldiers to stick to the Higashigabara formation, and the rest of the generals are almost all new forces, roaring out with absolute superiority, the shouts are earth-shattering, and the blades in their hands are wielding great power.

The Maori army had no intention of fighting, and originally tried to use the Takayagawa Gorge salient to block the advance of the Date army in the same way as the Date army blocked the advance of the Maori army that day, hoping to block the attack of the Date army in such a narrow mountain road in a way that was invincible, and wait for Kobayakawa Takakei to disturb the hinterland and create a zĂ o miracle.

The reason why the Date army was able to block the advance of the Maori army was actually a trick, if the Maori Yuan could have put the elite into battle earlier, I am afraid that there would have been no victory in the Takayagawa Gorge later, today Date Masahiro invested the most elite soldiers early in the morning, plus the Maori army lost too much in front of the Higashi-Ebara formation, nearly half of the troops were lost on the front line, where could they resist the elite of the Date family, when the Maori Yuan had just arranged the temporary formation, it was scattered by the thousands of infantry led by Ueno Masatsu.

Although the Maori army has no intention of fighting, only wants to retreat, and the faster it retreats, the lower the morale, and the more discouraged the army's morale, although everyone from the samurai to the soldiers knows the benefits of maintaining the battle formation, and they all know that they must work together to hold the battle formation at this moment, and they all know that this is the only way to fight out of the siege and save their lives, but human nature is cowardly and selfish. Coupled with the successive deaths of high-ranking samurai. The chaos of the chain of command led more and more soldiers into absolute collapse. Soon they began to flee in groups, and since they came from a narrow mountain pass, the only way to escape was the direction of the Kamibe Plains, making the battlefield a swarm of bees.

The Maori army fled in droves, and some of the samurai tried to maintain the morale of the group, but they were soon coerced and even pushed by other companions who had long since lost their minds to escape the bloody hell. Zhengheng obviously didn't let them go, and in the case of a crisis in the rear, he still made an order for Ueno Masatamu to chase after him, and he had no intention of chasing after him and not entering the forest. Now in front of him was a group of people in despair.

At the time of the attack last night, the Maori army still had 2,500 troops, and now there were no more than 500 people fleeing, and most of the rest were in a desperate situation, and they put down their swords and gave up resistance, and fell to their knees on both sides of the road, trembling, and became the corpses of the Date army. Behind them, more than 2,000 Ida's armed swords were chasing after them, and the slower Maori army soon fell into a siege and fell screaming. Without the help of his companions, they broke away from the group, and then they were chased by the Date army, hacked to death with knives and stabbed to death.

Standing on an unnamed hill at the eastern entrance of the Takayagawa Gorge, Zhengheng looked at the two sides of the battle at the front line, confirming the marks of the enemy and the enemy. The enemy had already fallen into a desperate situation and fled, muttering in a low voice: "Maori Yuan." I won this game, I don't know if you're dead. He then ordered: "Find me a Maori Yuan, and I will see people alive and corpses when I die." ”

Just as he was thinking this, a small servant pointed to the battlefield and said, "Isn't that Ueno Masatsune-sama, he killed Kodama and was loyal." ”

Masahiro paused slightly, Kodama was killed, he hurriedly raised his head, and suddenly saw Ueno Masatsuna raising a head to show off his might, grinning: "Taro has lived up to my expectations after all, and this battle has finally shown his ability." Obviously, he is also quite satisfied with his promotion of Ueno Masada, Ueno Masada's repeated joint battles have been injured to no avail, if it were not for the political balance to override the public opinion and hand over the reserve force that dared to charge to him to command, I am afraid that it would be difficult to have today's big victory, will be brave, will be fierce.

Kodama is loyal to being good at administration and is the right-hand man of Maori Motosa, and now he dies in battle to cut off one of Maori Moto's arms, how not to make the political balance comfortable. Of course, what Masahiro wants to see most now is to seize the Maori Yuan, seize the Maori Yuan, once the Maori Yuan falls into the hands of the Date family, there will be a huge harvest, to put it simply, half of the Maori family is caught in the hands, and now the Maori Takagen is already in the hands of Zhengheng, if the Maori Yuan is even planted in Yoshikawa Motoharu, even if Kobayakawa Takakei is known as the second Yuan, it is difficult to speak, and the day when the Maori family falls apart will not be approaching, at least most of the Bihou Congress will fall into the hands of the Date family, The Date family will almost double their strength and great prestige. No matter what abyss there is in front of him, he can't control it, whether he is short-sighted, he can't control the idea of letting Mao Liyuan resist Tao Qingxian and Nizi Qingjiu in front of him.

Just as Masahiro praised Ueno Masatsuna's bravery, on another high ground on the battlefield, a drum noise sounded, "It's Yoshikawa Motoharu, it's Yoshikawa Motoharu of the Maori family!" "I've found Motoharu Yoshikawa!" "He's there!" I don't know which guy who can't eat alone screams in anger, instantly overpowering everyone's shouts, more and more people joined in the noise, and people rushed towards the location where Yoshikawa Motoharu was.

Nayoshikawa Motoharu had already led more than a dozen guards to turn around the salient of the blockade and wanted to escape along the mountain road where the pioneer of the Date Army fled that day, and left the main battlefield along the mountain road, but the luck was not good and he ran into the attention of a few pawns who did not have time to rush in front of the autumn wind, which was exposed, and the original few pawns still wanted to eat alone, but seeing that Yoshikawa Motoharu killed several pawns and ran wildly, where did the rest of the people dare to slack off and shout loudly, which attracted countless soldiers at once.

The guns swished and flew towards the team of Yoshikawa Motoharu and his party, and the sound of "poof" sounded in the already unusually messy team at the edge of the woods, and the guards who were shot often felt that a force in front of them pushed them a long time ago before falling to the ground, and the sound of crying and moaning immediately came.

In addition to the necessary equipment and weapons, the standing equipment of the Date Army soldiers will also be equipped with two to four short guns to make short-distance throwing weapons, Yoshikawa Motoharu's right arm was also scratched, he looked at the blood oozing from the armor of the blockade, and the bone-chilling pain paralyzed the right arm, obviously the short spear that caused his injury had been soaked in deadly golden soup, perhaps crying made his brain sober a little, and he understood that the blockade was already doomed.

Yoshikawa Motoharu's heart was dripping blood, he never thought that this battle would be so unsmooth, defeated again and again, and now he has fallen into a desperate situation, his eyes closed slightly, he exhaled softly and muttered in a low voice: "Father, the child has taken the first step!" The cruel knife in his hand turned to stab himself in the abdomen, obviously wanting to commit suicide by hastily cutting his abdomen.

I only heard a loud roar: "Shaofu Jiro Hall has to be a daughter, and the second palace has been here for a long time, who dares to fight with me!" As he spoke, he rushed out on a war horse with a sword and blocked in front of Yoshikawa Motoharu, wielding a sword to kill a prominent Date soldier with his hand, followed by a war horse, and shouted: "Don't get on the horse yet, break out of the encirclement with me!" ”

Yoshikawa Motoharu was not pretentious and immediately mounted his war horse, followed by Ninomiya Haruhisa and broke out towards the battlefield, the sword in his hand kept waving, more and more Date soldiers died in their hands, there was no enemy, Date soldiers were afraid of accidentally injuring their companions, and no one used the throwing spear anymore, but they tightly surrounded the two horses, not letting them leave, or letting them get closer and closer to the exit.

There is a great intention to let them escape, and at this moment, a huge man riding a war horse with his chest and breasts bared broke into the battlefield and shouted: "Kinai Miyazawa Heihachiya, Yoshikawa Xiaoer is gone!" After speaking, he waved a thick black stick one and a half long and rushed towards Yoshikawa Motoharu.

The situation on the battlefield changed again and again, and the slightly stunned Zhengheng ordered: "Let go of the passage and let him pass!" He didn't expect that Heihachi Miyazawa, who was close to one side that day, would suddenly appear on the battlefield and appear with such a brave face, which was really surprising.

When Zhengheng was stunned, Miyazawa Heihachi had already connected with Yoshikawa Motoharu, and casually knocked on the head of Haruhisa Ninomiya who wanted to stop him, and exploded like a rotten watermelon, splashing blood and brains.

Heihachi Miyazawa is a famous warrior in history, and he has grown step by step from a wild samurai to the lord of a castle. In the famous Battle of Sister River, he served as the vanguard of the Asai Army, and led 1,500 elites to break through the 13th section of the Oda Army's 23,000 13th section formation, if it weren't for Tokugawa Ieyasu's battle, I am afraid that the final battle would not have ended with the victory of Oda Nobunaga, and after the defeat of the Asai main team, he led the remnants to break through the Oda army head-on and led 300 horsemen to retreat to Sawa Mountain Castle.

Yoshikawa Motoharu was able to get the title of Oni Yoshikawa to flaunt his bravery, but it was not as good as Miyazawa Heihachi, after all, people revered him and thought of his father as the famous Mori Motosho, not him first.

Why did Miyazawa Heihachi appear on the battlefield, Masahiro is really a little inexplicable, according to his thoughts, Miyazawa Heihachi was already a retainer of the Asai clan in the time of Asai Ryomasa, and he and the other party were only general acquaintances, and they would suddenly come to the battlefield to help the Date army.

The two quickly exchanged hands, and after more than ten rounds, Miyazawa Heihachi picked off Yoshikawa Motoharu with a stick, grabbed his armor with one hand, dragged it back in a daze, and headed towards the main formation of the Date army, which made the Date army fall into a wild shout.

The capture of Yoshikawa Motoharu finally became the swan song of the Second Battle of the Takayagawa Gorge, and in the end, Mori Motosho was still not found, and the advance of the Date Army had already rushed through the mouth of the gorge and occupied the main position of the key mountain Mori.
