Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Kuroda Encirclement
Just when the head of Nagamune, who was besieged in the Katayama area of Tosa Province, was about to lead his army of 6,000 to launch a decisive battle against the 34,000 troops of Kuroda Vocational High School. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info east of Tanba Province, the easternmost part of the Kuroda family, a turmoil against the Kuroda family is artificially fermenting.
In fact, to be more precise, not only the country of Tanba, but also the surrounding areas of the Kuroda family, in the eastern part of Harima Province, Tango Province, Bigo Province, Iwami Province, and even the entire Mori Province, are mobilizing in full force.
This is an operation led by Ishiyama Honganji, and you can simply call it the Kuroda Family Siege Internet Café!
Ishiyama Honganji also knew how many catties and taels he had this time, and in order to target the Kuroda family, their Dharma lord Honganji appeared, contacted the Maori family, the Isshiki family, the Bessho family, and finally added Honganji itself. The four families are ready to take advantage of the opportunity of Kuroda Vocational High School to lead a large army to carry out the expedition of the four countries abroad. Jointly sending troops to various places, in an attempt to distract the Kuroda family from the end of the country, disperse their forces, and achieve the goal of jointly dividing the land of the Kuroda family and weakening the strength of the Kuroda family.
As for what each family can get after success, it is said that there is a rough agreement. But the few companies involved know that this is just a gentleman's agreement, but the few that are already ready to "take advantage of the danger of others" (in their own opinion) will abide by this agreement that has no effect? Several families know in their hearts that this is difficult to achieve, and how much they can get in the end is definitely up to their own ability.
Before Kuroda Vocational High School left Shikoku, the Kodera clan specially ordered someone to bring a letter from Tanba Province to Kuroda Vocational High School, and it was after he received a message from the Tongxin people lurking in Honganji, and the content of the letter was some simple information about the Kuroda family's siege network plan.
Because of that concentric crowd, although the time to get in is not short, but at present, it is only a small leader, and it is not easy to know this.
After reading the letter and getting the plan of this siege network, Kuroda Vocational High School did not give up the strategy he had prepared for a long time because of this seemingly huge plan. He still resolutely chose to send an army of 10,000 people, as well as a small number of samurai and retainers from his family, to Shikoku.
The first and most important thing for the Kuroda family to do this is that they have already responded accordingly. Before Kuroda Vocational High School left, he specially called Shigeharu Takenaka, Sanada Masanobu, and Kuriyama Riyasu, and discussed countermeasures all night.
They have already explained the attacking forces, the possible offensive situation, and how the Kuroda family should respond to various situations. The Kuroda clan is very clearly described in terms of how many troops should be used against each faction, what is possible in a joint battle, what to do after the war, and how to expand their territory if they are victorious.
In addition, before leaving, Kuroda Vocational High School had turned all the results of these discussions into letters and handed them to the several people in charge who needed to participate in this time, and instructed them on how to do it.
For the Isshiki family, the Tango country where they are located is adjacent to the Kuroda family's Tajima and Tanba provinces, so they only have two options, which is to send troops to break into Tanba Province, or directly enter Tajima Province.
If they send troops to Tanba, then there will be an emptiness in Tango. If this is the case, Muri Takayu will lead a large army to attack Tango Province directly. In this way, the Isshiki family must return to the army as soon as possible, not only can it achieve the effect of encircling Wei and saving Zhao, but also can choose a suitable place to wait for work, meet the tired army of the Isshiki family, and defeat it.
And if the Isshiki family directly attacked Tajima Province, it would be even better, and the soldiers of the Muri family, who had been fully assembled, would give them a head-on blow at the border between the two countries. After that, Musato Takayu will also break into the territory of the Ichishiki family in Tango Province and continue to invade.
This is the content of the letter that Kuroda gave to Takatomo Musato before he left the army. Because the mother of the mother of Kobei is now in his forties, the affairs of the family after the mother of the mother of the return of the mother of the family is still slowly shifting to the mother of the mother of the family, after all, he will be the heir of the mother family in the future. This is not only clear to the mother, but also willing to achieve it as soon as possible.
Because Kuroda Vocational High School will be in charge of the Kuroda family sooner or later, as the Kuroda Vocational High School grew up together from below, the Muri family headed by Takayu Musato will definitely have a very promising future.
At the same time, letting his mother take over as soon as possible can also let him know early that it is not easy to be in charge of a big family, and he can become a qualified family governor in the future. Work better for the family and serve the Lord's family.
Kuroda's reply to Kodera Clan's office is mainly to make him pay close attention, and the actions of the believers of Honganji Temple are a great credit for protecting Tanba Province.
At the beginning, it was only necessary to monitor the movements of the Ichijo Sect, and as long as there was no large force of the Ichijo Sect's team, if they entered the Tamba Kingdom, they did not need to go out into battle.
However, it is necessary to secretly gather people from all over the place in advance, lurk in a secret place, and be ready to deal with the possible uproar of Honganji Temple at any time. Because it's in the territory of the Kuroda family, the fact that they hide their whereabouts can be easily achieved by the Tongxin people.
Of course, there is also a situation, that is, if the mind of the Tsuyozong can come to Tanba Province first, he must report it to the Kuroda family as soon as possible. As long as there are not too many people, with the help of the Tongxin people, the head of the Honganji Temple can be captured, and the goal of eliminating the threat of the Ichisuji sect this time can also be achieved.
As for facing the Higashi-Harima Country Bessho family, which is not far from the Kuroda family's skills, because of the guidance of Kuroda Vocational High School, Kotera Takahisa has already assembled the soldiers early, and has already found a mountain area at the junction of the two territories and hid it. I'm just waiting for the actions of the other houses, and I should definitely surprise them when the time comes.
For those who directly face the skills of the Mori family, the three prefectures of Bigo Province and Misasaka Province of the Kuroda family, and the Inaba Province that is indirectly bordered, these places have the possibility of being attacked by the Mori family, so not only Kuroda Vocational High School has done a good job, but even the family governor Kuroda Vocational Duty has paid great attention to it, and has also made instructions in advance.
The Iate Yushi of Bei China had already completed the assembly ahead of schedule, and led 5,000 Bei Chinese to the border between Bei China and Bei Hou Guo and lurked.
Shigeharu Takenaka and Masayuki Sanada had also left Kuroda Castle and were under the protection of hundreds of guards and were advancing towards Bei Chu. They will arrive at their mission site first according to their current tasks, and then further discuss countermeasures.
