Chapter 158 Iida Yoshitake who is not afraid of death
Now not only can he save his life, but the safety of his family seems to be no longer in question, and he has no will to continue to resist. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It took some time to convince Yu Yuanyu, but compared with direct combat, this time is still slightly saved, and it is more than ten minutes saved that you can do a lot of things, especially on the battlefield, and it is likely to become the key to determining the development of the battle.
It's just that although Izumo Motosuke surrendered, the Imate Tomoto clan still didn't take Dewa Motosuke to fight the Maori army.
First of all, although this Dewa Motosuke surrendered, the Imate Yushi still somewhat distrusted this surrenderer. Secondly, the Iteyu clan has already seen the strength of Yu Yuanyu's army, which is just an ordinary wealthy army, of which miscellaneous soldiers account for the majority, and the combat effectiveness is really not high.
After the Imate Yushi didn't want such an army to converge with his army, when facing the old master, he couldn't exert his strength because he was afraid of being liquidated, and even dragged down the entire army. Ite's fears are valid, because there are too many cases where a battle is lost because of the aberration of a small number of people.
So Ide Yushi did not bring Dewa Motosuke with him, but sent a team of 200 people to Fukuyama Castle with Dewa Motosuke's army to repair, instead of following the army.
The Iate Tomoto clan is not afraid of this army rebelling again, not to mention that his son Dewa Motokatsu is in the hands of the Kuroda family, which team of 200 people, as long as you pay attention, even if it is suddenly attacked, you can completely defeat Dewa Motosuke's army. Coupled with the assistance of the Tongxin people and the 300 defenders in Fukuyama City, it is really difficult for these 500 people to make any waves.
At the other end of the same street, near the logs and the city, Kuroda Shogao's army encountered another temple army that had just been separated from the Mori Yuan army, and the leader of this temple army was Iida Echichu Mamoru Yoshitake, the general of the Mori family police.
Iida Yoshitake is from the Iida clan of Anki Province, but he is not from the same source as Iida Motokin, another important minister of the Maori family. His ancestor, Iida Nobuza, was from Iida in Sagami Province, and was a clan of the same origin as the ancestor of the Takeda family. After the Iida clan came to Yasuki Kingdom, it has always existed as the Takeda family, and the main family has never changed until the Mori family rises strongly in the western country.
In the tenth year of the Astronomical Era (1541 AD), Mori Moto eliminated the Yasui Takeda clan, and by this time the old lord Iida Yoshitake had been defeated, so he joined the Mori clan.
After consolidating the domain, the Mori family began to compete with Yoshitaka Ouchi for the lower reaches of the Sato River. The Mori family, who had been nesting in the mountains of Yoshida Prefecture, repeatedly lost to Yoshitaka Ouchi in the naval army after obtaining a territory that could directly connect to the Seto Inland Sea, and at this time, the discerning Mori Moto began to know the importance of the naval army.
Murakami's naval forces are important, but their ship configuration and tactics are difficult to adapt to the contention of inland waterways. Therefore, in order to compete with Yoshitaka Ouchi, the inland river water army is also equally important.
So the scheming Mori Moto, for his own ambitions, and in order to be able to defeat Ouchi Yoshitaka, Mori Mototo recognized Kodama's position as the commander of the police, and at the same time let the former ministers of the Takeda clan, Iida Yoshitake, Fukui Motoshin, and the retainers and affiliated forces of the Yama Prefecture minister, all belong to the Kodama Shogun, which also represents the establishment of the Maori family's naval army. And the Maori family recruited the Murakami water army, and the subsequent battle of Itsukushima was all a later story.
Historically, Iida Yoshitake participated in the fierce battle between the Mori family and the Ouchi family in the 20th year of Tenmon (1551 AD), the battle of Itsukushima in the 24th year of Tenmon (1555 AD), the Zhou and Chojinglu that began in the 2nd year of Koji (1556 AD), and the subsequent battle with the Otomo clan in Bungo Province.
In the fourth year of Tensho (1576 AD), the Mori family and the Oda family fought the first Kizu Kawaguchi battle to rescue Honganji, and he was also tasked with delivering military rations to Ishiyama Honganji.
He is completely different from the previous situation of Dewa Yuansuke taking the initiative to take on the palace army, and Dewa Yuansuke took the initiative to undertake the task of the palace army this time for the safety of his son. In the end, when he knew that the mountain castle of Yoshida County had fallen, he directly surrendered to the Kuroda family with his own military strength.
And he was selected by Maori Yuan, passively accepted the task of being the palace army, leading his more than 300 subordinates, and the 100 soldiers sent to him by the Maori family, to face the 10,000 army led by Kuroda Vocational High School himself.
Regarding the arrival of Kuroda Vocational High School, Iida Yoshitake actually held his own determination to be loyal to the Maori family, so in the face of Kinoshita Hidenaga's persuasion, he finally refused, even if he knew that his descendants had fallen into the hands of the Kuroda family, he did not change his mind.
"Young lord, Iida Yoshitake is unwilling to submit." Riyan Kuriyama came to say.
Kuroda Vocational High School was wearing his whole body and riding on a white horse, looking at the military momentum of Iida Yoshitake, who was already tense far in front of him, and said flatly: "You little guys lead a team, two teams outflank the flanks, and two teams directly attack the front, do you know?" ”
"Hey! Just the safety of the young master. Kuriyama said hesitantly.
"Go ahead! And Hattori Masanari! He's so much better than you. Kuroda said with a smile.
"Hey!"
Kuroda Vocational High School now has a lot of samurai like Sasaki Nagahide, Kogawa Yoshitoshi, and Umibe Tomomitsu, so in the face of the current situation, it's also a good thing to let a few young men go out to practice.
The four of Kuriyama Riyasu, Inoue no Fang, Akashi Quanden, and Dawn Kuniliang each led a team and two hundred elite soldiers of the Kuroda family, and rushed towards Iida Yoshitake's army. According to Kuroda's orders, Kuriyama Riyasu and Dawn Kuniren rushed to the front of Iida Yoshitake's army, and Inoue Nobo and Akashi Quanden attacked its left and right flanks respectively.
When the Kuroda family's attack began, the most surprised person was Iida Yoshitake, who saw that the Kuroda family was about to start attacking their army. But he was surprised that Kuroda Vocational High Army, which had an army of 10,000 men, had only sent less than 1,000 men to attack him.
Is it really the Kuroda vocational high school that everyone is saying is powerful? Is it the so-called No. 1 wise general in the West who is unparalleled in the world? Is it the Kirin of the Western Kingdom that has never failed since the first battle of the Yuan Suit? How could he arrange that?
