The fighting sound of Azeng Village quickly alarmed Yasumasa Kazuhara. When he learned from the scout that he had been attacked by Sanada Army, he slapped his thigh heavily and angrily shouted: "We shouldn't let the pride show off! Now, not only did he not make any contribution, he has paid his life in it, how can I face my lord, how can I face the old Tadaji and Nobumahara!"

Seeing that Kazuhara Kazumasa was so indignant, the soldiers under his subordinates were also excited. They rushed to avenge the dead soldiers as soon as Kang Zheng gave the order.

"Taitamasa, immediately lead the main cavalry to Azeng Village to support him. If there were only four hundred cavalry surveyed by the scout, then the Sanada army that was attacking should be the backhand left by Anfangshou in order to stop our army's pursuit. It is not fearful." As he said that, Yasumasaki Katsuhara will marry him to the eldest son, who had been adopted by Osuka Tadamasa of the Mikawa famous family, and he led the rear of the temple and sent someone to inform the war situation to Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was in the rear of the village.

Tadomasa Osuga was only nineteen years old. Because his adoptive father Yasuga Yasuga died early, he has been with Katsumasa in recent years. After years of experience, his ability should not be underestimated. Hirahara's joint battle once fought against five, clearing the obstacles for Katsumasa and Katsumasa. He was deeply trusted by Katsumasa and the generals of Katsuhara.

Taking the pickup from Kang Zheng, Zhongzheng nodded solemnly and immediately led a thousand cavalry to Azeng Village for rescue.

At this time, Azeng Village was no longer an exaggeration to describe it as a purgatory in the world. Not to mention the projectiles that were constantly shooting out from the outskirts, the flesh and blood of the Tokugawa Army who were trying to break through the hillsides on both sides again and again. Even the unscrupulous killing of the Sanada cavalry in the crowd also caused blood to splatter on the battlefield and corpses everywhere. The two generals Aohei and Sakai died one after another, greatly destroying the morale of the Tokugawa Army. In a short while, the troops of 1,400 people were wiped out. The only few cavalry left were shuttled back and forth in the battle formation, relying on the immediate fighting to kill some Sanada Army, winning some dignity for the Mikawa Samurai.

Sanada Nobuhisa didn't care too much about whether he could completely destroy this vanguard. He summoned dozens of personal guards to the east side of the encirclement and waited for the storm to come.

"The Mikawa samurai is here, Sanada's kid comes quickly to die!" As expected, before long, Osuga Tadmasa led the main force of Tokugawa cavalry to arrive, roaring to the front of the formation, vowing to destroy all the Sanada troops.

Seeing this, Sanada Nobuhisa immediately shouted to Tadamasa: "I am Sanada Genjiro Nobuhiro. The general who was attacked this time will give a gift to the opposite highman!" After that, Nobuhiro threw a bag in front of Osuga Tadamasa's horse. Tadamasa used a gun to lift the bag. When he opened it, he found that it was the head of Sakai and Ouphip. He was so angry that he immediately came out, and shouted loudly, leading the army into the battle formation.

Nobuki did not intend to get entangled with it, but quickly led his troops to cross the battlefield from east to west under the chaos of the battlefield, made a sharp turn near Azeng Village, and fled north along the path. Immediately afterwards, the Sanada army on the battlefield and in Azeng Village also began to retreat along the northern slope mountain road, as if they had joined Nobuki.

"Where is this road leading to?" Zhongzheng did not rashly follow up, but asked the scout first.

"All the north is the branch of Numata Castle, the famous Huta Castle." The scout replied.

"Minami-Hotou City?" Tadao-Hotou City pondered and analyzed: "Nabata Castle has been abandoned now, and the cavalry that raided our army must have no way out, so they went there. Thinking about it, maybe they would have hid in Minami-Hotou before and left the city to attack before our army approached. They were really a group of hateful guys."

"Sir, are you going back to report to Shibu now?" asked a samurai.

Tadmasa looked at the Tokugawa soldiers who were killed and injured on the battlefield and Opi and Sakai who were hanging on the saddle, clenched their fists and said angrily: "My father has analyzed that this surprise attack force is only 400 people, and there are many people who have been killed in battle just now. We must not let them go back to the city to take refuge. We must take down the head of Sanada Nobuhima and avenge more than a thousand soldiers!"

"As for the order!" The warrior's elder brother unfortunately died in this battle. Seeing that Zhongzheng insisted on pursuing, he no longer stopped him. In addition to leaving a hundred people to clean the battlefield and rescue the wounded, the rest of the soldiers rushed to the famous Hu Tao City from the small road.

In a short while, the casualties of Azeng's battle were settled. Kazuhara Yasumasa joined the army and learned from his mouth that a total of 1,100 people were killed in Tokugawa's army, ninety injured, and 210 people could still fight. Sanada's army was killed in battle, including 72 cavalry and seventy-two of them, and the casualties between the two sides reached 13 to 1. The gap was so great that Kang Zheng was heartbroken, saying that this was a huge defeat that had never been seen since the three sides.

"I'm passing the order and the army continues to advance. I want to see what the Numata Castle has been burned to. I also inform Tadamasa that you can defeat the enemy, and there is no need to be wiped out. Take the head of the Sanada family and come to Numata to meet me." After the deployment, Kazuhara Yasumasa immediately led the remaining 2,600 troops to continue advancing.

As the Azeng Fort became closer and closer, the bloody smell in the air became stronger and stronger. Kang Zheng tried hard to smell it, as if there were the souls of Tokugawa soldiers in the air. As he smelled it, he couldn't help but shed two lines of tears: "I encountered such an accident before I arrived in Numata Castle. I really don't know if the road ahead will be even more dangerous. Is my Tokugawa family really destined to give me?"

"Bang!" Only a few crisp gunshots suddenly came from the grass on both sides of the road. Fortunately, Kazuhara Yasumasa was not seriously injured, but his shoulder was scratched by the projectiles, but his mount was hit by several shots. With a "thump", his front leg fell to the ground, and after a few breaths, he lost his breath.

"There are assassins!" Kang Zheng's retainers immediately surrounded him in the middle and sent several teams to the mountain to search for snipers.

"Damn it, it must be a ninja from the Sanada family." Kang Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to see what other plans he has to do to stop our army from moving!"

Kang Zheng performed a simple bandage with the help of his retainers, but fortunately he had only skin trauma, which did not affect his continued command of the troops.

But at this moment, with a few loud "rumbling" sounds, several huge rocks rolled down from the slopes on both sides, and eventually hit the streets heavily. Nearly 100 foots, including the Suoshan Zhan team, were killed. Although there were not many casualties, these foots were already silent due to the previous raid. Now they were hit by the huge rocks, and many people began to run away with their heads in their arms. Since the rear of the team was also occupied by the huge rocks, a large number of foots were squeezed in the narrow mouth, completely ignoring whether there would be other bombardments.

"An Fangshou is not obstructing our army's advance, but trying to kill our army!" Kang Zheng suddenly realized: "I underestimated the Sanada family and passed my orders. The army retreated immediately and joined the main force!"

"What should I do if Lord Zhongzheng?" the general of the army suddenly asked.

Kang Zheng waved his hand and replied indifferently: "He has his own sense of responsibility. After so many battles, we still have a tacit understanding."
