Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 388 The Army Strikes

On Gifu Castle, the three-story, five-story castle tower, which is particularly striking and white, is bathed in golden sunlight at this moment.

Hearing that Shima Katsumi sent troops to besiege Ichiru Castle, Oda Nobunaga immediately returned to the castle tower, which represented the power center of the Oda family, and summoned the chief ministers of the Oda family for military discussions.

Upon hearing the news of Nobunaga's military meeting, he was already waiting to summon the impatient Oda's retainers and hurried to the castle tower.

Hanging in the center of the castle tower is a map of the entire Oda family. Now all the retainers understand at a glance that the Oda family in the center is already in a smoky embarrassing situation.

To the northeast are the Asai family in Kitaomi, the Echizen Asakura family, and the Takeda Hida Vietchu Corps detachment, which is advancing on Hokuriku Road.

On the east side of Kinki, there are the Miyoshi trio in Awa, Awa, Ishiyama Honganji, and the Matsushige show in Yamato.

To the south is Nagashima Hongan Temple.

For Tokaido, Shingen Takeda's 27,000 main force Shangluo army.

As for Zhongshan Road, it is the Akiyama Shinyou Corps of the Takeda Army.

Now Yiliu City in the north of Mino was attacked by Li Xiao's chief general Shima Masaru.

These forces are not average, their total mobilization is far above the current Oda family, and the siege of nearly 100,000 people in the surrounding area, all the Oda family members felt the pressure of the tilt of the mountain, and they were heavily pressed. Shoulders.

Shibata Katsuya, Akechi Mitsuhide, Sakuma Nobumori, Lin Zhenxiu, Ikeda Tsuneko, Inaba Ichitetsu, Ando Shouji, no break light rule, no break light rule, tie-handed fanxiu, Mizuno Shinmoto, etc. All sit inside.

Except for Niwa Nagahide and Kinoshita Hideyoshi who are currently fighting in Kitaomi, and Takigawa Kazuki who was in charge of suppressing Nagashima at the Ise Defense, almost all the important officials of the Oda clan now gather here.

After the military meeting, the Shibata Masaru first reported a piece of unfavorable news to Oda Nobunaga. According to the news from Kyoto Shidai Sada Murai, the general Ashikaga Yoshiaki, who was also in an unstable situation, was secretly recruiting troops.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki is the shogun, the pillar of the samurai family, and leads the world. Although he had already acted against the Oda family behind his back and was known by Nobunaga, if he declares war with Nobunaga openly now, he will be considered to be against Nobunaga's current status. Denial.

This result is like the Han Emperor Xian's independence in a certain place, raising troops to conquer Cao Cao.

Hold the emperor to make the emperor of the princes, there is no more.

Hearing the news that Ashikaga Yoshiaki was about to conquer himself, Oda Nobunaga held the whip, but he smiled and said, "Let him go."

At this time, Oda Nobunaga pointed the whip to the position of Ichirujo on the map and asked, "How many people are there in Shima Katsumou's army?"

"Return to the lord, according to the investigation by Lord Saito, there are more than a thousand people, and the people of the Takeda army county should be dispatched." One of the three people of Mino, Ando Mamoru, replied. He died in battle, and now there are only two of the three Mino.

"If there are only a thousand people in the county, it is not worth attracting the attention of the family. The purpose of the Takeda army may be to deliberately confuse our vision and contain our army here, so that the main force of our army cannot go to the Tokaido to rescue His Royal Highness Mikawa." Shibata Shengjia said loudly.

As soon as Shibata Katsuya’s voice fell, Mizuno Nobumoto on the seat of the retainer was already crying. This person went to the Oda clan, but he was the half-brother of Tokugawa Ieyasu’s mother. It was Tokugawa Ieyasu's uncle.

In the Cheongju League in Tokugawa Oda, it contributed a lot to helping the two Mizuno Nobumoto as intermediaries.

"My lord, at the moment Toe heavy castle Nimata Castle is being besieged by Takeda Shingen's army. If Nimatata is lost, Hamamatsu Castle is being besieged by Takeda's army. Please send troops quickly to rescue the Tokugawa family."

After Mizuno Shinmoto choked up after speaking, the man in his fifties actually burst into tears on the spot.

In the face of this, Ikeda Tsuneike first said dissatisfied: "Master Mizuno, please pay attention to your attitude, you are my Oda Fang's retainer."

Nobumoto Mizuno said: "Master Ikeda, the way of a samurai requires the best of morals and justice. The family has several key battles, such as the battle of Shangluo, the battle of Otsukawa, and the Tokugawa family are all helping, and the Tokugawa family is at stake. , Can you just sit back and watch?".

"Enough," Oda Nobunaga waved his whip and said, "I am going to discuss the matter of the Takeda army dispatching troops to the county and the rescue of the Tokugawa family. We will discuss it later, if it is to rescue the Tokugawa family. , And lost the fundamental place of Mino. Is this what Xinyuan you want to see?".

Hearing Nobunaga's anger, Mizuno Nobumoto immediately pleaded guilty.

Nobunaga Oda pointed to Akechi Mitsuhide, saying: "Jubei, the last time you were in Kyoto, you said that if you were Li Xiao, you would go out of Hokuriku with the main force, but ordered Gunjo to attack Mino’s rear. From the perspective of this situation, Li Xiao’s actions are very similar to what you said."

At this time, Mitsuhide Wiseki said: "His Royal Highness Boss, at that time there was no more than a moment of speculation, and rash speculation on sufficient evidence is not the way to make a decision."

Akechi Mitsuhide’s answer did not satisfy Oda Nobunaga at all. Before he strode forward, he waved his riding whip on Akechi Mitsuhide’s head and said, "Damn, according to what you said, if you don’t judge Li Xiao’s main force for a day, wouldn’t it? The main force of my Oda army has been unable to move?".

"Is it Omi or Gunshang?"

Akechi Mitsuhide heard Oda Nobunaga's reprimand, his face changed, and said: "His Royal Highness, I think that if the county does not stock up on food and grass, it will not be able to support the army's operation. As for Omi or the county, it is better to ask the lord to make a decision."

Hearing that Akechi Mitsuhide said this, Oda Nobunaga took a heavy breath, and suddenly a touch of determination was wiped out in his eyes.

The retainers knew that Nobunaga had made up his mind.

Oda Nobunaga said: "Sakuma Nobunori, Hiranusu, Mizuno Nobumoto, I order you to mobilize three thousand troops, go to Tokaido, and wait for the dispatch of Mikawa-den."

Sakuma Nobumori, Hirate Panhide, and Mizuno Nobumoto heard the words and saw each other. At the moment, Tokugawa Ieyasu can mobilize no more than 8,000 troops. Even with the three thousand aid troops of the Oda family, it is just over 10,000.

In the face of Takeda Shingen's 27,000 army, this will not play a big role at all.

But seeing that Nobunaga had made up his mind, these three dared not say anything but took their orders.

At this time, Oda Nobunaga looked at him again, as the last retainer of the retainer seat, and said: "Endo Keilong takes orders."

The young retainer was slightly surprised when he heard Oda Nobunaga called him. When he reacted, he quickly said, "Yes, Lord."

Oda Nobunaga said: "You are the former city lord of the county, but you are most familiar with the county's terrain. You immediately set out to rescue Yiliu City."

Endo Keilong heard that Oda Nobunaga dispatched and took the lead excitedly.

After Li Xiao captured Gujo Hachiman Castle, Endo Keilong went to Oda Nobunaga.

In order to win over the Mino tycoons, Oda Nobunaga gave him the knowledge and deeds of five thousand stones as a place for him to settle down.

At this moment, Endo Keilong was also nervous. Since he was defeated by Li Xiao last time, Dong Changyao restored the Dong family name and entered the prefecture of Hachiman Castle, he has been trying to conquer the old collar.

There is an opportunity to use the gun at the gun right now. For Kei Takao Endo, he is very happy. If Oda Nobunaga can conquer the gun, he will definitely use the gun as a stop.

Therefore, Endo Keilong decided to do his best. It was only five thousand stones that he could only mobilize more than two hundred people at most. With this little military power, how to fight against the people of Shima Katsumi.

Just when Endo Keilong was worried, Oda Nobunaga looked at a simple-faced military commander and said: "Inaba Ichitsu takes orders."

This military commander is one of the trio of Nishimino Ichitetsu, who is as famous as Ando.

Oda Nobunaga said, "I order you to send troops from Sone Castle, and you must save Yanagi Castle for me."

Inaba gave an iron clatter, expressing his command.

Endo Keilong was overjoyed when he heard this. Ichitetsu Inaba is a well-known military commander in Mino. He has experienced more than seventy battles with more victories and fewer losses. With him as the main force of this battle, he can fight against Shimao.

Endo Keilong felt relieved.

Unexpectedly, Oda Nobunaga hadn’t finished speaking, he turned to Shibata Katsura and said: "Kwon Roku, I order you to lead the army to set off to meet Inaba Ichigo. If Inaba successfully rescued Liucheng , You don’t have to go, rush to Kajida Castle to prepare to fight the Takeda’s Akiyama Faithful Corps."

At this moment, not only Endo Keilong, but even the generals of the Oda clan were shocked. Shibata Katsumi was the number one general and the number one fierce general of the Oda clan. He was also known as Oni Shibata, and even he was sent to deal with the Gunjo.

Oda Nobunaga actually valued Li Xiao so much.

After Shibata Katsumi heard Nobunaga's instructions, he let out a flat voice.

At this time, Mingzhi Guangxiu asked suddenly: "Master, if Li Xiao's main force is really in the county, how should we deal with it?"

Oda Nobunaga's eyes flashed, and he looked at Shibata Katsura and said: "You don't have to fight Li Xiao, let me hold Li Xiao, and wait for me to lead the main force out of Gifu City. It doesn't matter if Tomino is lost. It doesn’t matter even if you lose a country. As long as you can wipe out Li Xiao’s main force, is it definitely worth understanding for my Oda family?”.

"Yes, lord." All the courtiers took their orders in a sudden.

Finally, Nobunaga Takaga looked around the generals and said: "As for the rest of you, let me sit in Gifu City. Once the time comes, I will send troops immediately."

"Oh"

All the retainers took their orders in a sudden ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ On the other side, Liucheng, has been besieged by the Takeda army county for three days.

Last night, Yokotani's ninjas secretly sneaked into the city, set fire to the east of the city, and burned down several houses in the city, as well as the houses stocking weapons and rations.

The rations were burned, causing the morale of the soldiers in the city to fall.

The next day Dao Shengmeng commanded the county public to launch a fierce attack on Yiliu City. Numerous rockets shot into the city with the help of the rising wind, and a big fire suddenly ignited in Yiliu City.

Despite the general wind, Yiliu Naomo led his men to resist the onslaught of the Takeda army while fighting the fire, but the situation has taken a turn for the worse.

In an instant, Yiliucheng became precarious under the onslaught of the Takeda family.
