However, when everyone finished speaking, Sanada Masayuki had a different opinion, and he hurriedly said: "My lord, my subordinates think that it is not appropriate to fight at this moment. [Literature]"

"Oh? Tell us what you think. I heard the clan ask hurriedly.

And Sanada Masayuki saw that the lord asked, he didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly said: "Lord, the subordinates think that Matsunaga is very wise, could this be his trick to lure the family's army to fight, now the family's army is only more than 300, if after the battle, if the losses are heavy, then this Takasaki Castle will have no possibility of defending." The subordinates believe that the more critical they are, the more cautious they should be, even if there are really reinforcements coming, they must not come out lightly, and ask the lord to think twice. ”

Clan Zong thought about it, and still felt that Sanada Masayuki was reasonable, Matsunaga Xiu was not an ordinary person, it can be said that since he crossed over to the Warring States, he can be called the strongest opponent, so he must not be careless, this is not a game, there is a chance to start over after he dies, if he dies because of his carelessness, then what should the family do, so the clan still accepted his suggestion.

First of all, if it was really Mizuse Uemon who led hundreds of ninjas to come, it shouldn't be difficult to break through the enemy camp, and if not, then Matsunaga Shu would be very busy.

However, even if you don't send troops to attack, it is still necessary to pick up the counterpart, so that the enemy will not follow the reinforcements, and then you will not be able to open the city, thinking of this, I only listened to the clan Zong immediately ordered: "Watanabe Moritsuna, Hori Hidemasa, you two immediately lead your subordinates to the outside of the city to respond, but never allow to attack the enemy camp, if it is not for the arrival of reinforcements, then return to the city immediately." [Literature]"

The reason why the clan sect let the two of them lead the army to meet them was entirely because the troops led by the two of them were cavalry. If the situation is found to have changed, then with the speed of the cavalry, it is still easy to return to the city.

After listening to Watanabe Moritsuna and Hidemasa Hori, they hurriedly took the order.

After all, the army under the command of Matsunaga Xiu is much stronger than the peasant soldiers, if it is a peasant soldier, in the face of such a sneak attack, it will definitely be directly dispersed, and the Matsunaga family is elite. Not only did it not break down, but after Matsunaga Shu gave the order, he had begun to recover and under the leadership of the samurai, he had begun to surround the hundreds of enemies.

However, there were hundreds of these enemies, and the Matsunaga army was less than 1,500, and even if all the troops were mobilized, it was impossible to enclose all the enemies, so they had to use a small number of troops to block them. And with a large number of troops, the ninja army and the three hundred troops led by Tanaka Katsusuke Yamaguchi Uemon were cut off, and Tanaka Katsusuke, who led the front army to charge and kill, suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

"I am the general of the Matsunaga family, do you dare to fight with me." I saw a samurai, armed with a spear, blocking the way.

Katsusuke Tanaka said with a chigantic approach. The longer it dragged on here, the more dangerous it became, and it stands to reason that he should not have fought with the enemy, but now he had to. First, the opponent's army is in the middle of itself and the ninja army. blocked his way, and more importantly, he overestimated the strength of his army.

Although they also had armor on their bodies, spears in their hands, and equipment comparable to that of the enemy, however, after a fight, he found out. The army under his command is stiff and stiff, and he is not an opponent of the enemy at all. Yamaguchi Uemon didn't care about his 100 troops, and he didn't know what their combat power was. However, he knew that the 100 ashigaru he brought with him had not reached 30% of the combat power he had exerted during training.

At the beginning, Katsusuke Tanaka hadn't thought it through, but now he finally figured it out, the enemy is the elite of a hundred battles, and he has experienced countless battles, so he has long regarded this as a habit, and although the army under his command trains hard in peacetime, but their usual job is only to protect the safety of the sparrow house, and they have never been on the battlefield at all, and now they must be very nervous, so the combat power will be greatly reduced, and if you want to change this situation, then you can only improve morale, as long as morale is improved, They also forget about their tension and fear. …,

And the best way to boost morale is to win over a general of the enemy, thinking of this, I saw Tanaka Katsusuke running two steps quickly in front of Toki Raiji, and said loudly: "Why don't you dare, today I will use your head to sacrifice Takayama-sama." ”

"No more nonsense, look at the guns." Toki Yoriji was not known for his martial arts, but when he saw that the other party didn't even have a horse, he was afraid that he was just a low-level samurai with little ability, so he didn't bother to talk to him more.

However, as soon as the two fought, Toki Raiji felt a little bad, although the other party did not have a mount, but, after only two moves, he already had an advantage, and don't look at his age, but this strength is not small, which made him suddenly feel a little surprised, he really didn't expect that the other party could have such martial arts, if it continues like this, I'm afraid it won't be long before he dies himself.

After listening to the other party's name, Tanaka Katsusuke was still a little nervous, after all, the other party was a general, and his martial arts were natural, and the other party had horses, so he didn't dare to be careless, so he just took a defensive position, but after two moves, the opponent was not only inferior to himself, but even his marksmanship was much worse than his own, so he didn't hesitate for a minute, and immediately turned defense into offense, and handed out two shots in a row.

In this way, Toki Raiji was immediately a little unable to resist, and after the thrilling parry of two moves, he saw that the opponent's third move had been sent, and it was too late to parry, so he saw him turn over and get off the horse on one side, which was considered to be the general to dodge.

However, he was not the opponent of the other party when he rode on the horse just now, and now that he has dismounted, he is even more invincible to the other party, and if he still wants to save his life now, then he can only escape.

Thinking of this, he saw that Toki Raiji no longer cared about his reputation, turned around and rushed towards the army behind him, he thought to himself, as long as he hid in the crowd, he would be safe, but the distance between the two was too close, when he just ran two steps, Katsusuke Tanaka behind him had already caught up, and at the same time sent a shot, straight to his heart.

I only listen to Toki Raiji, "Ah! He screamed, and was pierced through the heart by a spear.

The 200 elites of the Matsunaga family under his command saw that the general had been killed, so they instinctively retreated to both sides.

And the remaining more than 100 Ashigaru under Tanaka Katsusuke saw this, and it was a big morale shock. And shouted loudly: "The enemy general Toki Yoriji has been taken...... and with the shouting, they also basically recovered their combat strength. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
