Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 486: The Water Army Is Out

Tianzheng five years, August.

Wakasa Country, Goose Mountain Castle.

The scene of the sunrise, the morning glow renders the sea surface. At this time, the autumn wind is gradually rising, and the sea is already slightly wavy

As the autumn is gradually entering the autumn, the fishermen in Wakasa country on Hokuriku must hurry to this last season and start fishing. The warm Tsushima Ocean Current has brought a lot of fishing grounds to Wakasa country, and it is also a gift from God to Wakasa country. The gifts of the people.

Wakasa country has always been famous for its abundance of fish and salt.

In the Heian period, this was the royal food country, and fresh fish must be paid to the royal family every ten days.

Therefore, here is the famous Mackerel Street, which leads to Kyoto. The reason why it is called Mackerel Street is that this street is mainly used for selling fish, and salt leads to Kyoto. Among the fish, mackerel is used. Mainly.

In addition to land transportation, water transportation here is also very developed in Goose Mountain Castle, mainly using the waterway from Lake Biwa to Kyoto. When Toyotomi Hideyoshi built Fushimi Castle, the water transportation here was used to transport wood.

Due to its proximity to Kinki and the well-developed transportation, Wakasa Country has a strong Kinai characteristic, with Buddhist temples all over the country, and it is known as the Nara of the Sea, or Little Kyoto.

It also doesn't matter if Saakuni protects Takeda's vigorous development.

Wakasa Takeda is a branch of Kai Takeda. At that time, Nobuei Takeda was able to kill Yoshitsune Isshiki, and was regarded as evil by thousands of people. The six generations of the shogun Ashikaga Yoshikao was named the guardian of Wakasa.

Wakasa Takeda is also closely related to the Hosokawa family, the leader of the five generations of Wakasa Takeda. It is the one-character admiration leader Hosokawa Katsumoto who dominated the Eastern Army General Katsumoto.

Because he was deeply trusted by the shogun and the leader of the Hosokawa clan, Wakasa Takeda’s patron, was also guarded by Tango Kingdom and entered the ranks of the shogunate’s heavy ministers.

In the Battle of Onjin, he became the main fighter of Hosokawa Katsumoto, and was known as the deputy general of the Eastern Army for a while.

Therefore, serving as the guardian of the two countries, Wakasa Takeda's prestige far surpassed the Takeda Hons, which is far away in the Kai ravine.

People once thought that Kai Takeda was the branch of Wakasa Takeda.

But later, Wakasa Takeda quickly declined, and it became known as the four elder officials to usurp power, resulting in the powerlessness of the owner. Ten years ago, the governor of the house Motoaki Takeda even took the Asakura family to Ichijo Valley.

Nobunaga attacked Asakura's house, and just rescued Takeda Motoaki.

Now as Wakasa's largest city, Goose Mountain Castle is overlooking this sea area.

Goose Mountain Castle This is the center of Wakasa Takeda, the guardian, and Kokubun Temple are all built here.

In response to the Ren Rebellion, Gongqing fled Kyoto and sheltered here for a while, so it was prosperous for a while.

In the back mountain of Goose Mountain Castle, the wind blows through the pine forest and makes a crisp sound.

A figure dressed as a forty-year-old samurai also looked at this sea area.

"I said that my family will have a revival day."

After speaking, the samurai gave a cold snort, then turned around, and, accompanied by two entourages, was slowly climbing up the mountain from the back of the mountain.

This samurai has firm eyes and calm expressions. There is a thick cocoon on the tiger's mouth on his right hand. Obviously this is a kendo master.

"Who is it?"

In front of a gate, someone asked loudly, and at the same time there was a faint sound of twisting the bowstring, apparently arching the bow.

"You bastard, don't you even know the adults?"

The samurai's entourage shouted loudly.

Turning to the pine forest, the samurai and two entourage appeared in front of the door.

"It turned out to be Muto-sama, why don't you go to the big hand gate and enter the city from the back mountain?"

"Asshole, is this your business?"

"Sorry, Muto-sama, the villain shouldn't ask more."

Guarding the door, two Zuqings with papaya-printed flag fingers recognized the samurai and said with a smile. As they said, one Zuqing was still on the arrow scull, and the other was opening a bow and arching an arrow. The foot gestured lightly, don't let go of the arrow.

The samurai went straight to the gate of the door, and the two foot soldiers put down the handles of their guns and said, "See Lord Muto."

This person, known as Muto-sama, nodded slightly after seeing this, and after a few steps, he said, "Thank you."

This sir Muto, who has heard that this temper has always exploded, suddenly became cheerful today, slightly surprised, and was just waiting for this surprise.

I saw this Muto-sama suddenly moved, but he didn't move, and suddenly his sword flashed.

The two heads slid straight up to the sky, and the blood from the necks shot out like a fountain.

This scene made Zu Qing standing on the arrow scull, staring dumbfounded. When he hadn't slowed down, the entourage of the samurai took out a ninja-only hand arrow from his sleeve, and left him casually. Flick.

At the moment, the famous Zuqing only felt a pain in his neck, and the call he wanted to warn of was immediately held in his throat, and he could no longer shout.

After the samurai killed someone, he rushed into the door of his hand and lifted his sword straight in.

At this time, a servant who was cleaning with a broom, just walked out from behind the door, and looked at the samurai, carrying a **** samurai sword, and piercing him with a knife.

The servant was silently killed by a samurai sword, penetrated from the front and back of his chest.

Just in the blink of an eye, four people were killed in a row.

After the samurai looked around and confirmed that no one was coming, he wiped the samurai sword on the servant's clothes, and the blade was sharp, only the blood tank was still red.

The samurai couldn't help but said happily: "Good sword."

Immediately he waved to his entourage and shouted, "Send a signal!"

The entourage understood, and immediately made a lip with one hand, and blew a clear whistle at the door of the hand.

Soon after, in the mountains and forests, countless figures flickered in the hidden clumps.

The samurai captain exhaled and said: "Since there is no movement, you will continue up the mountain with me to see if you can deceive the gate of Ninomaru, and you will take over here, guard the gate for me, and take the other people up the mountain. ."

"Oh!"

More than a dozen ninjas dressed up and suddenly agreed.

The samurai walked halfway, paused, and looked towards Wakasa Bay from the top of the mountain.

I saw fishing boats shuttle above the sea, and just where the water and the sky meet, rows of large boats with several heavy sails are driving towards the bay port in the wind and waves.

In the cabin of a big ship.

A bearded man was holding a bowl of sake and sipping guts, while another dark-skinned man in front of him, frowned slightly, said: "Before the battle, I still drink less. bar."

The man put down the wine bowl and laughed: "Master Qianga, don't worry, you know how much I drink."

The dark-skinned man said, "Master Xiangjing, it's not because you drink, but this battle is related to your family's strategy and needs to be done cautiously."

The man called Senga-sama brightened his eyes and said: "Don't worry, Wakasawan is just a navy of the Imi family. This is not an opponent of the family at all. I have asked to cooperate with us. Ming Guo's fleet went to deal with them. With the power of these Ming Guo people, the navy who saw their homes should only be left with some wood now."

Speaking of naval battles, the man whose name is Lord Mukai said with a proud expression: "Master, I have trained our navy for nearly ten years, and now we have a small success. On the naval battle, the navy of this family is naturally not our enemy. , But we will attack this mountain city Tase in a while. This land warfare is not our navy's strength. Even if we have many people, it may not be possible."

Chiga-sama smiled and said, "I'm too worried, for this time to send troops to Kaga, the young master, Takenaka, and Honda have been planning for a long time. They not only instigated the Takeda family elder Muto Yukichi, but also arranged for a ninja crowd. Hidden to seize the gate, this series of back players will surely be able to seize this city without any blood."

"Take a step back and say, even if it fails, our three newly built Nanban ships have dozens of large tubes. If they want to attack the city, they will be unloaded directly and carried up the mountain with a large tube. There is nothing that can't be taken."

Seeing the other party's full of confidence, this Master Xiangjing finally showed a smile on his face, saying: "I hope so. This time the navy's expedition to Wakasa is also a last resort. I hope it can relieve the Kaga frontline a bit. It's a crisis, Shibata Quanroku, really a famous general in the world!"

Speaking of this, this is a sailor’s report from the cabin: “The ship’s bow, there is news from Mingguo that the navy of Yi Jian’s family has been wiped out! At the same time, the early boat, who was the pioneer, reported the direction of Hoseyama Castle and found out Mingyan is obviously something that our military should have done."

"very good."

The two ship generals smiled at the same time, and then the Master Xiangjing said: "Pass the order, raise the sail with all your strength, and attack me into the port."

boom!

boom!

Clouds of smoke rose from the harbors and towns of Wakasa Bay, and several wooden houses were suddenly collapsed under the bombardment of ship cannons.

The guard of Oda Taseyama Castle Tokube Kentoku was dumbfounded when he looked at the **** ship not far from the sea.

"Where did this navy come from? Why did it appear here? Is it Tango navy? Impossible, the Isshiki family, there is absolutely no navy of this size, and he would never dare to be an enemy of my Oda family. "

Shoubu Jiande muttered to himself.

He was dressed as a monk~www.wuxiamtl.com~ This person was originally a retainer of the Rokkaku clan, and later changed to the Oda clan. He became a naval minister of the celebrity Niwa Nagahide, and was assigned to supervise the water transport of Wakasa Bay.

After Niwa Nagahide died in the battle of Nagashō, Wakasa Kuni was placed under Shibata's reign, and he was changed to Shibata's clan, and he was appreciated and appointed as the lord of Taseyama Castle.

This time, Shibata Katsushika went to Kaga for the sixth time, mobilizing Echizen, Omi, and Wakasa, a total of 35,000 troops.

Due to the unprecedented size of the army, Shibata's army fought fiercely between Kaga and Takeda, and the allied forces were unable to supply them for a while.

He is being ordered to prepare food and military resources in the rear, relying on the water transportation of Lake Biwa, from Wakasa Bay to Tsuruga Port, but at this time, he found a large number of unknown fleets appearing on the waters of Wakasa Bay.

Just when Shoubu Jiande guessed, the Ninomaru in the back mountain, at the door of the hand, suddenly burst into flames at the same time.

At this time, Kotobe Jiande slapped his thigh, knowing that something was wrong, he shouted: "Go to Yoshida Castle and tell Mrs. Itami that the water army of the Takeda Family Hida Yuezhong Corps bypassed Echiqian and attacked. Wakasa is here, please come to help as soon as possible!"
