Sibo Yiyin looked at them and said gently.
"You tried your best and followed me to fight for more than ten days, with no faults.
Your Majesty's arrest of me was just to use bargaining chips to negotiate with His Highnesses Uesugi Jinbo and would not endanger my life.
You can go back in peace and explain to His Highness Uesugi that this is what I mean. They are all good warriors with both wisdom and courage. It would be a pity to die here.
When I get back, I will take credit and receive rewards for you. You must stay as useful as possible and serve me and His Highness Uesugi again in the future. "
The eyes of Pu Sheng's village were filled with tears, and the concubines behind him were also moved.
Shiba Yiyin tried his best to fight for their infamy, without caring about his own reputation. They have always been treasonous and dishonest, and Sibo Yiyin was captured and humiliated. They must be blamed for their death.
Yoshigan doesn't care, he knows that Yoriteru Shimoma won't do anything to him.
Unless Ishiyama Honganji doesn't want to hang out in recent times, he must be polite to him, the powerful local leader of the shogunate and the husband of the general.
The worst thing is to suffer some losses in the negotiations between Vietnam and China, but with the return of Kaga's army, Vietnam and China are unable to support each other alone, and Yoriteru Shimoma has no qualifications to bargain with Terutora Uesugi.
Holding the righteous silver is nothing more than embolden yourself and seeking peace. Yoriteru Shimoma would not dare to do the humiliating behavior of Takeda Harunobu, it was really looking for death.
Surrendering only hurts Sibo Yiyin's reputation for being victorious in every battle, and makes his face look a little ugly.
The great names of the martial arts in this world are willing to let Samurai Ji die for the sake of their own reputation and face.
That's why Yoshihiro Shiba's behavior was so dazzling, making the Kamo family shed tears and surprising Kawada Nagauchi and others.
The Lord of Righteousness and the Lord of Mercy truly lived up to his reputation. Although he lacks a bit of domineering decisiveness, serving under him is indeed reassuring.
It was difficult for Kawada Nagachi and the others to speak, and Kamao Shigo said with tears in his eyes.
"Otai Suo, please stop talking. Even if I die, I will not let you suffer this humiliation.
If I want to catch you on the battlefield, first step over my corpse! "
"Bold! You didn't even listen to my words!"
"I am ashamed! Please take back your order and charge again. I, the Pu Sheng clan, are willing to be the vanguard!"
When Shiba Yiyin saw the eyes of the Hamo clan with a look of death, her finger pointing at her trembled, and she was so angry that she couldn't speak.
This stubborn guy is really putting himself in trouble, why doesn't he understand the principle of saving people and losing land, and saving both people and land!
The two were still arguing, and the ladies around them were silent. At this moment, there was a noise coming from behind.
Kamoji looked behind him and said in surprise.
"At the imperial office, there is chaos in the rear. Is Lord Jiang Ma coming to kill you?"
Yiyin glanced at it and said doubtfully.
"Jiangma Huisheng?"
He didn't expect the Jiangma family to risk his own life and seek death, but suddenly he thought of Naomasa Ii in Jiangma's formation, and his expression turned bitter.
Damn it, no one is obedient!
At this time, there was no room for him to think any more, time was life, Yiyin shouted.
"Return to the army! Go back! Follow the Jiang Ma family's reinforcements and fight out!"
This place is dozens of miles away from the mountains of Hida Highlands. In this rush, the army will inevitably be exhausted. They are afraid that they will be surrounded and wiped out before they can reach the mountainous area.
But Jiang Ma's army has already arrived, and Yiyin has no other choice. Let's unite and rush out first.
The cavalry turned around and headed east, rushing towards the road they came from.
———
Shimo Yori Zhao was in the main formation and kept looking at the black spots on the slope. He was also surprised to see Shiba Yiyin's cavalry going back down the slope.
Before, I didn't dare to rush back even though I had plenty of energy. Now that I'm tired and exhausted, I'm looking for death instead?
She was really worried that arrows would be fired randomly over there. If Shiba Yiyin was shot to death, she would be in big trouble.
Yori Zhao was just about to give the order and send someone to inform the other side that no arrows were allowed to be fired. I saw an envoy rushing on horseback to report the military situation.
"General! Blocking the army from the east, we were attacked from behind, and there was a gap in the encirclement."
"What!"
Yoriteru Shimoma stood up subconsciously and took a few steps forward. No wonder Sibo Yiyin turned back and walked back. Where did the reinforcements come from?
Recalling that Shiba Yiyin's cavalry consisted of one man and three horses, with only about twenty people, Yoritaru Shimoma came to his senses.
"It's the people who stayed behind! They gathered their horses to help the imperial troops break out, and some people stayed behind!
Army attack! Quickly support the east side, and Sibo Yiyin must be left behind! "
Yoriteru Shimoma gave the order quickly, but he was not in a hurry. Sibo Yiyin's cavalry was tired, and as long as the Zong army followed and pursued him, they would surely bite him and capture him.
She didn't forget to say one last thing.
"Order all ministries not to shoot arrows, and the imperial office must be captured alive! Remember, you must treat those you catch with courtesy, and notify me as soon as possible!"
The neat spear array of Xiang Zong's army began to loosen, moving up the slope from north to west and east.
Yoriteru Shimoma was excited. The moment she stepped onto the Shiritari Saka, she seemed to have seen a future in which she would hold Shiba Yoshiyin and Uesugi Terutora and Jinbo Nagasaki would have no choice but to retreat.
At this moment, the continuous sound of conch sounds rang out from behind Xiang Zongjun, who was running all over the slope and chasing the Sibo Yi Silver Cavalry.
Yoriteru Shimoma turned around suddenly. The sound of the conch came from the north, from Higashinojiri Village, with a strong warning.
"not good!"
Just as she was about to order the entire army to turn back, a different sound of conch shells came from the north and west, and there was a faint hint of horse hooves in the distant sound.
Shimoma Yori Zhao glanced at the Ichigo clan troops scattered across the mountains and plains, and at the looming large group of horseback samurai warriors in the distance, with a desperate expression on his face.
———
The Yixiang Zong army in the east carefully blocked Sibo Yiyin's return journey, mainly resisting horses and bows and arrows. But they never expected that an army would come out behind them.
With more than 60 Hime samurai including Tongxinzhong and Uesugi as the vanguard, the Hime samurai under Ema Terushiro commanded more than 200 Ashugaru peasants and soldiers to form a spear formation and follow up to cover up the kill.
When Xiang Zongjun found out who was coming behind him, it was already too late. The two armies collided, and it was difficult to shoot with bows and arrows to avoid accidentally injuring one's own people.
Naomasa Ii rushed forward, one man and one horse, and the remaining horses followed closely and galloped forward, going deep into the Ichigo clan's army and disrupting the formation.
Jiang Ma's army followed and attacked the chaotic Yi Xiangzong with a complete array, gaining the upper hand for a while.
After the Zongzong army had overcome the initial chaos, the fanatical believers of the Ni soldiers took the initiative to step forward and besiege the few enemy troops wedged in the formation.
The Wu family's army only numbered two to three hundred people, but the Xiang sect's thousands of people came to their senses, led by the fanatical believers, and began to counterattack.
Several large naginata slashed at the legs of the horses that had slowed down. The horses stumbled and knocked down the warriors one by one. They formed a small formation and continued to hold on back to back, but the Jiang Ma army behind them could not rush over.
Yi Xiangzong took advantage of his numerical advantage to slowly tear Jiang Ma's army into small pieces, and was about to gain the upper hand.
