Chapter 519: Battle of Takekawa (6)
Harusasa Nanbu knew it couldn't be delayed any longer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
If it drags on any longer, and when the two people in the front line, Okuji Dinghisa and Mikami Naozuna, are surrounded and eliminated by the Tsugawa family, then even if the southern family finally wins this battle, it will be a huge loss. After all, these troops are all directly subordinate troops of Southern Harimasa, and they belong to the "Minohe clan". If the damage is severe, there will definitely be some turmoil in the southern families. Not to mention anything else, the eight, seven, and nine households will definitely have some thoughts that they shouldn't have.
The three clans where Southern Harimasa is located are nothing more than the "alliance leaders" of the southern families because of their strong strength, and if the troops directly under the southern Harusa are seriously damaged because of this joint battle, there will inevitably be some situations that the various branches of the southern Harimasa do not want to see.
For this battle, Southern Harimasa actually has other plans.
In fact, whether it was the Okuji Dingjiu team and the Mikami Naozuna team in the front, or the troops of Nan Changyi and Ishigui Nobubo on the left flank, they were all just a cover played by Nanbu Harimasa. The purpose was to attract the attention of Soji Tsugawa and contain the forces of the Tsugawa family.
The real killer move of Southern Harumasa is actually Naotsuna Izumiyama and Naoyoshi Izumiyama.
Thinking of this, Nanbu Harumasa turned his head and said to a flag on the side, "How is the situation over there, Naotsuna? ”
"My lord, Lord Tsuba has already made 25 bamboo rafts, and it is expected to be ready within half an hour!" Qiben replied truthfully.
"Hmm." Nanbu Qingzheng nodded, and then then said to Izumiyama Naoyoshi beside him, "Naoyi, have you picked the person you selected?" ”
Izumiyama Naoyoshi hurriedly replied, "Lord, a total of 500 elite soldiers have been selected, and they are ready to listen to the lord's orders at any time!" ”
"Good!" Nanbu Harumasa said with satisfaction, "In half an hour, let's send a big gift to Tsugawa Soji with our own hands." ”
At this time, Izumiyama Naoyoshi had already had some guesses about the plans of the southern Harusa, but he was not sure. Just as he was about to ask, a young samurai came out of the main camp and interrupted Izumiyama Naoyoshi, "The main hall wants to sneak attack the Tsugawa family's main camp?" ”
"Huh?" Nanfang Qingzheng looked back suspiciously, and it turned out to be Beixin Ai.
To be honest, for Kitanobu Ai, a samurai who has suddenly emerged recently, Nanbu Harumasa is still very happy in his heart. The North family has always been a loyal supporter of Southern Harumasa, and Kita Zhiai is also the uncle of Southern Harumasa by blood.
"Why did Hikotaro say that?" Nanbu Haruma asked in a slightly surprised manner.
Hokushin Ai smiled, and then said, "Before the main hall, I asked Lord Kushiwa to make a raft, and then asked Lord Izumiyama to select 500 elite ashigaru, didn't you want to sneak attack the Tsugawa family's main camp?" ”
"If you attack from the road, there is no shelter here, and it is easy to be discovered by the Tsukawa family. However, there are bamboo forests all along the Takekawa River, so if you let the ashigaru make a raft and follow the Takekawa River eastward into the Kitakami River, then continue north and go ashore in the Asamino area. ”
"Tsugawa Soji's main camp is in Asamino."
"And the main hall also allowed Okuji-sama, Mikami-sama, Nan-sama, and Ishigme-sama to attack the various forces of the Tsugawa family. Just now, he ordered all the troops to attack, and he must have wanted Tsugawa Soji to send all the reserves and the remaining troops out to fight the family. ”
In this way, Tsugawa Soji's main camp must be empty. If Izumiyama-sama led 500 elite ashigaru to suddenly kill Asamino at this time, Tsugawa Soji would not have time to react. ”
"If the Tsugawa family's forces don't return to defense, Tsugawa Soji's main formation will definitely not be able to stop Lord Izumiyama, and maybe he can still win Tsugawa Soji. And if the Tsugawa family's troops return to defense, most of the family will take advantage of the situation to cover up, even if Tsugawa Soji's main formation can be ensured, but this battle is won by the family. And it's a big win! After saying that, Beixin Ai looked directly at the southern Harimasa with an expression that I had already seen through everything.
After listening to Kitanobu Ai's words, Nanbu Harimasa glanced at Kitanobu Ai appreciatively, and then laughed and said, "Haha! It's Hikotaro, it's really the best of the young samurai in the family, not bad! ”
Hearing Nanfang Qingzheng's praise for himself, Bei Xinai hurriedly said with a flattered face, "The hall is praised." The strategy of the main hall really benefited me a lot! ”
Looking at the praise of Nanbu Qingzheng and Kitanobu Ai in front of him, Izumiyama Naoyoshi on the side secretly scolded in his heart, "Made, this was originally my line!" ”
"Hikotaro, now that you know your family's plan, you should also lead your army into battle. Remember, don't care about casualties, as long as you can draw the attention of Soji Tsugawa to the main battlefield, then the family is already half victorious! ”
"As for the other half, it's up to you to be straight!" After speaking, Nanbu Harumasa looked at Naoyoshi Izumiyama and stopped talking.
"Hah!" Kitanobu Ai and Izumiyama Naoyoshi replied loudly.
..........
Asamino, Tsugawa family main camp.
Soji Tsugawa sat expressionless on the main seat, and kneeling in front of him sat Miki Naogo and others, as well as an envoy who came to report the news.
"The rotten wood is bright, it's a pity, alas!" Soji Tsugawa said with a look of regret.
Although it was learned that the Katsumaki family and the Kuji family had been defeated by the forces of the main family, and that the situation in the front battle had progressed in a direction favorable to the Tsugawa family, Tsugawa Soji was not happy. Samurai like Kuchiki Tsumei, to be honest, still have a lot of the Tsugawa family, but Tsugawa Soji still feels very sorry.
Talents are rare, and if you die, you will have one less.
Miki Naogo, who was sitting below, looked at Tsugawa Soji with a look of pity on his face, and hurriedly explained, "My lord, dying on the battlefield is the glory of a samurai." Although Lord Kuchigi died, he still made a name for himself, and he thought that Lord Kuchigi had died a well-deserved death. ”
"Having said that, but the death of Rotten Wood Tongming is indeed a loss for my family." Soharu Tsugawa was not relieved by Miki Naogo's words.
At this moment, another envoy hurriedly entered the main formation.
"My lord! A large number of troops from the southern family suddenly appeared in the southern part of the battlefield, and it seems that the southern family has launched a general attack! He said eagerly.
As soon as the words fell, Tsugawa Soji stood up with a "poof": "Southern Harumasa still can't help it after all!" ”
"Where is the main direction of attack of the southern family?" Soji Tsugawa then asked.
Makeban scratched his head, "I don't know, adults will know when they go out and see!" ”
"Let's go!" Soji Tsugawa hurriedly rushed out of the main formation, and Miki Naogo and others hurriedly followed.
As soon as he stepped out of the main formation, Tsugawa Soji had already seen the situation on the battlefield.
In the southern part of the main battlefield, nearly a thousand troops from the southern family suddenly appeared, heading straight for the front of the Tsugawa family. Babai Daowei and the others also seemed to be aware of this, and urgently contracted their troops to organize a defense. And the stone turtle letter on the left flank and the south chief are also deliberately moving closer to the front.
"It seems that the southern family wants to break through directly to the middle!" Soji Tsugawa pointed to the battlefield and said to Miki Naogo and the others beside him.
"My lord, there are only four or five hundred people under the command of Lord Yabai and Lord Tohi, and the strength of Komatsuyama Castle is only 600 people. The strength of the southern family has increased to more than 1,000 people, and if you don't send reinforcements, you will definitely not be able to stop it! Nagano Masabo on the side spoke.
"Hmm." Of course, Soji Tsugawa knew this, so he said to Miki Naogo beside him, "Naogo, it's time for you to play." ”
