Kamo Castle is a small castle built on the coast of Ryotsu Bay, where the terrain is gentle, easy to attack and difficult to defend, so Yamamoto Ichiro directly abandoned Kamo Castle and directly set up a formation outside the city in a place called Sanhabara.

Yagyu Shuiichiro was the equivalent of the front army, and about a mile behind the outpost, Yamamoto Ichiro's main camp was on a small hillside.

To the right of the camp is the estuary, and although the terrain here is flat, it is a swampy area.

On the left side of the swamp was a dense forest, which half-surrounded the main camp, and the positions of Hirohiro Tsumi and Ieyasu Kira were in a small clearing between the swamp and the main camp.

At this time, Ichiro Yamamoto was directing Ashigaru to arrange horse fences and wooden fences outside the main camp. The purpose of these fences was not to defend the Honka, but rather to keep everything but the Honjin in check.

Tsumiki Hirohiro suddenly came to Yamamoto's side at this time, and said to Yamamoto Ichiro with a puzzled face, "Yamamoto-sama, what do you say this Shimazu and Saburo and Kamo Hisashi are going to do?" ”

"First of all, you deliberately let Shibuya Makiyo go and let him deliberately pass on the fake news, and then let us wait here for the wind?" Tsumiki Hirohiro looked around, and then continued, "I now regret a little why I didn't follow Yagyu-sama's proposal to directly send troops to attack the castle. ”

"Haha! Why did Tsumiki-sama say this? Ichiro Yamamoto suddenly smiled and said, "It is rumored that the lord once taught Shimazu and Saburo and others the tactics of the musket team, and it is said that the effect is amazing!" ”

"Before leaving, the lord also said that this time to send troops to Sado, in fact, the real main force of the battle is the musket team, and we are just working together........... Ichiro Yamamoto said slowly.

"What?" Hirohiro Tsumiki suddenly R's Chihuahua, "Why is this?" The musket is incredibly powerful, but it takes a long time to reload every shot of buckshot! If we wait for the enemy to rush in front of us, the musketeers will not be able to do anything at all, but we will need to provide cover! ”

"I think Lord Yamamoto is saying the opposite of the priority, this time to send troops, the protagonist should be us, right?" Tsumiki Hirohiro said unconvinced.

"Alas!" Ichiro Yamamoto sighed, then shook his head and said, "Although I am unwilling, but last night Shimazu-sama and Gamo Hisaaki came to me and explained to me today's tactics in detail!" In my opinion, after this battle, I am afraid that the musketeers will make a name for themselves in my family. “

“？？？ What does Yamamoto-sama mean by that? Hirohiro Tsumiki still didn't understand.

"Needless to say, you'll understand later." Ichiro Yamamoto didn't want to say more, then flashed to the side and continued to direct Ashigaru to set up the position.

..........

In the dense forest to the left of the Tsugawa family's main camp, Shimazu and Saburo stood under a large tree, facing more than 100 muskets in front of them, and said loudly, "Everyone! Although we have also won a lot of enemy troops in the Battle of Suheshan, there are still many people in my family who do not understand our true strength! ”

"To this day, there are still people who think that our musketeers are a bunch of fools who only know how to wander in the ravines! You tell me, are we? ”

"It's not!" As soon as Shimazu and Saburo finished speaking, the musket ashigaru around them suddenly roared loudly.

"It's not enough to just talk, we have to come up with a decent record so that we can gag their mouths!" Shimazu and Saburo continued, "Today is a great opportunity for us to prove ourselves!" “

"Lord Yagyu will lure the enemy troops into the swamp ahead, and at this time, everyone must obey the orders of the squadrons! No one is allowed to shoot without an order, and those who violate the order will be beheaded! ”

"Hah!"

"Now I command!"

"The first and second squadrons are 50 paces apart and the firing formation is hidden!"

"Fujishiro, I'll leave the third squadron to you, please!" After arranging the first and second squadrons, Shimazu and Saburo came to the third squadron in front of the head of the third squadron, Kamo Hisashi, and said solemnly.

Gamo Hisashi immediately replied loudly, "Shimazu-sama, don't worry, everything is in your hands!" ”

Wild fishing ambush is a tactic of the Shimazu family in Kyushu in the original history!

The name of Wild Fishing seems to be quite high-end, but it is actually a pocket array. First lure the enemy with a small force of the front army, and then feign defeat to attract the enemy army deeper. Then the ambushed iron artillery team fired from both flanks, disrupting the enemy's formation. Finally, cooperate with the rest of the ashigaru to surround and annihilate the enemy army.

It seems simple, but it's actually very effective! Historically, the Shimazu family relied on the trick of wild fishing and ambush, and they simply beat powerful forces such as Otomo, Ryuzoji, and Ito to make their lives unable to take care of themselves.

Even later Toyotomi Hideyoshi's "Kyushu Expedition", in the Battle of Tojigawa, the newcomers of the Eastern, Western, and Shikoku "Soil Buns" were also ambushed by the Shimazu family's wild fishing and almost doubted their lives. In this battle, many samurai such as the eldest son of Chozong Ibu and Tokawa were all beheaded, and the power can be seen.

Tsugawa Soji was naturally very much looking forward to the tactics that were very conducive to the effect of muskets, and he had repeatedly discussed with Shimazu and Saburo and others about the future planning of the musket team, and also told Shimazu and Saburo about the practical methods and tactics of muskets such as wild fishing ambushes and three-stage shots. The Tsugawa family's musket team also trained strictly according to the instructions of Soharu Tsugawa.

However, training is only training after all, and only after it has been used on the battlefield can it be proved that these tactics are really practical. Therefore, this time he sent troops to Sado Island, and Tsugawa Soji specially asked Shimazu and Saburo to lead the Tsugawa family's musket team to participate in the battle, the purpose was to test the training results of the musket team.

.........

The distance between Kamo Castle and Osaka Castle was only about 20 miles, and it would take two hours to march in a hurry.

By the time the coalition forces of the Honma family arrived at Mihabara, the sky had already begun to darken.

Looking at the sky that was about to completely darken, Honma Taitaka reluctantly said to Honma Takaki and the others beside him, "It seems that it is impossible to attack the Tsugawa family's forces today, so let the Ashigaru people camp on the spot and launch an assault tomorrow morning." ”

"Hmm." Honma Sadazhi nodded and said, "Next, send someone to inquire about the situation near the Tsugawa family's camp." ”

"It's good!" Honma Taigao said slowly, "It is rumored that the Tsugawa family is accustomed to night attack tactics, and I want to leave a few more vigils tonight, I don't want to lose my head in Shuimengzhou in a daze!" ”

"Don't worry! I'm keeping vigil myself tonight, and even if it's a fly, don't think about flying over quietly! Honma said loudly.

"Humph! The Tsugawa family, since you dare to come and offend my Honma family's territory, you must be prepared for defeat! Looking at the few fires looming in the distance, Honma Yasutaka knew that it was the camp of the Tsugawa family, and the thought of defeating the famous Tsugawa family tomorrow made Honma Taitaka feel like peeing.

"Whew, I really hope tomorrow will come soon.........."
