Chapter 7 Encirclement and Reinforcement?
The Kuroda family's first attack after besieging the inner castle ended because of the inadequate preparation of the inner castle defense system. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After the withdrawal of the army, the Imate Tomoshi convened everyone to start a military meeting, and in the big tent, more than 30 people who were qualified to participate sat down in about the right place, they were all important ministers of the Kuroda family and the lords of the wealthy families and countrymen under the command of important legions, and the Imate Tomoshi himself sat in the center of the long table.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have just launched a tentative attack on the inner city, and the result has been seen by everyone, and it can be said that it was a complete failure. Before coming, the lord had already given an order, and we must take this city in a short time, which is the lord's request, and it is also my request. The inner city is right in front of us, and it has blocked our progress, what do you think, please speak freely, this inner city conquering the merits, the Kuroda family will definitely not be stingy. Imate said loudly.
Below, you look at me, I look at you, there doesn't seem to be a good way.
"Akashi-sama." Imate shouted.
Akashi Quanden was still thinking at this time, and after being named suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, and then spoke: "Lord Idedanmasa, when I was just fighting, I discussed this matter with Lord Inoue, but it was not very mature, so I didn't dare to make a fool of myself. ā
Ite's name is because he and Inoue Nobo have studied military studies with Kuroda Vocational High School for many years, and if you talk about strategy, the two of them definitely have the right to speak here.
Second, Akashi Junto's father, Akashi Keikin, used to work with Igate Tomoji, and Akashi Keijin was a bold person, so he had a good relationship with Ide Tomoji. Now let Akashi Quanden speak, obviously for the face of Akashi Jingqin, and let Akashi Quanden, a young man, show his face in front of everyone.
As for Inoue's house, he is now the brother-in-law of Kuroda's vocational high school, and most people take the initiative to go up to tie the knot, and there is no need for Ide Yushi to carry the village at all.
"Oh! Then the two of you talk about what you discussed, it doesn't matter if it's not perfect, it's just a brick throw. Imate asked with interest.
"Hey! In fact, it's all about what I learned from my lord before. The inner castle is a castle near the sea, and it is visually composed of two pills from the outside of the castle, but it is unknown whether there are other curly wheels inside. The Lord once said that the method of attacking the city is only two ways to solve the city. ā
"What is internal and external cracking?" Mamoru Ando asked.
That is, literally, from outside the city and from the inside of the city. The attack outside the city is relatively direct, and you must be familiar with it, that is, to attack the city by means of strong attack, fire attack, water attack and so on. And the main way to break through the city from inside the city is to adjust the defenders, attack the earth dragon, and steal the city by ninjas. ā
"So what did you discuss?" Imate asked.
"Doom...... This ...... "Akashi Quanden was a little embarrassed.
"I won't eat you, don't worry!"
"Hey! The inner city is close to the sea, so the land is damp and not suitable for earth dragon attack; Built on top of a hill, so it is not suitable for water attack; The city wall has fire prevention treatment, so it is not suitable for fire attack; The city is not elongated, and it seems to have plenty of defenders and is not suitable for a multi-sided siege; It is three miles from the sea, and even the guns of the Honjiafu ship cannot touch the city walls. After we discussed it, we decided that we could only find a way from within. ā
After Akashi finished speaking, many of the people in the audience nodded in agreement.
"That is to say, it is very difficult to attack from the outside, and if you attack from the inside, the earth dragon attack cannot be used, so there are only two ways left, adjusting and stealing the city, you mean this!" Imate asked.
"Hey!"
"Inoue-sama, do you have anything else to add?"
"There is another word below, that is, what we are discussing is based on not knowing all kinds of information in the city, just combining our own knowledge, making a plan to attack the city, if combined with the actual situation, it is likely to have a big problem." Inoue said.
"Hmmm! That's right, but what does Takenaka-sama think? ā
The first person to sit on the left hand of the Imate Tomoshi clan is Mamoru Ando, and the nominal deputy general of the army, Shimazu Tadashige, is not eligible to participate in such a military meeting, after all, when he was at Shimazu's house, the city was not an inner city, and he couldn't help too much.
"In that case, how are we going to attack the city?" Imate asked.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in fact, I have already calculated about this matter, but the time is not yet ripe, why don't we attack in two days?" Shigeharu Takenaka said.
"Half-guard, you kid also learned the set of guards and guards, what can't you say?" Imate said with a smile.
The reason why he laughed was not because of anything else, but because since Shigeharu Takenaka said this, it can only mean one point, he already has a way to break the city, but maybe some steps will indeed waste some time, since he said it for two days, and it didn't take too long, Imate Tomoshi is not like Kuroda Vocational High School, who is confident that he can pacify Shikoku within a month, which is indeed a very great achievement.
"Actually, there's nothing we can't say, but we have one thing that we need to do first." Shigeharu Takenaka said seriously at this time.
"Oh! What needs to be done? Itetomo asked, confused.
"That's a siege to send reinforcements!"
"Reinforcements? This is strange, Hanbei, according to intelligence, the three thousand elites of the main force of the Shimazu family should be in the territory of Hyuga Province at present, even if they know the information about our attack on Satsuma, it will still take some time to return from Hyuga Province! If you count the time they spent getting rid of the Ito family, this period of time could be a little longer. Ite Tomoshi analyzed.
"My lord can't say, for the main force of the Shimazu family, their leaders are Shimazu Yoshihisa and Shimazu Iehisa, both of whom are well-versed in military strategy, and a simple encirclement point to send reinforcements may not be enough to deal with them."
"That means that the target of the encirclement and reinforcements you are talking about is someone else?"
"Hey!"
At this time, Shigeharu Takenaka did not continue, but after looking around at the people sitting down, his glasses fell on Inoue's body, and then hesitated.
"Lord Takenaka, if there is any task that needs to be done, please say it and do your best to complete it."
Inoue Nobo saw Shigeharu Takenaka's eyes and knew that what he wanted to tell should be a task that would not be easy to solve.
