Volume Three: A Thousand-foot-Tall Building Rises from the Ground Chapter 575: The Plan Has Been Sold

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    A thousand years ago, the Japanese royal family established three passes in order to strengthen the defense of Kinki.

    These three passes are the Aifa Pass guarding the Hokuriku Expressway, located in Echizen, the Fuwa Pass located in Mino, guarding the Nakasen Road, and the Suzuka Pass guarding the Tokaido Pass in Ise.

    In the past, the areas outside these three passes were called Guanwai or Guandong.

    When the forward corps of the Oda Army arrived at Ogaki Castle, they originally planned to attack the Northern City.

    This plan was, firstly, to punish the rebels, and secondly, to prevent the 100,000 stones of military rations hoarded in the northern city from falling into Takeda's hands.

    So the Oda Army sent a front team and ordered Inaba Sadachi and Hayashi Sadahide's troops to attack the northern city and decided to take back the city.

    However, the troops of Inaba Sadachi and Lin Xiuzhen were ambushed by Shima Shengmu and Ando Mamoru at the gate of the northern city, and were slightly frustrated.

    The next day, when Inaba Sadachi and Lin Xiuzhen heard that Li Xiao had led the main force of the Hida Vietchu Army to Kajida Castle.

    When the two heard about Li Xiao's name, they did not dare to act rashly. They immediately led their troops to retreat towards Ogaki Castle, and reported to Oda Nobutada and Akechi Mitsuhide that Li Xiao's main force had entered Mino.

    ??Zhongnong, add governance to Tiancheng.

    In this crucial city of Meinong, this is the second time Li Xiao has come here.

    Based on the facts, Li Xiao led the main force of the Hida Echu Army, and after a three-day trek, they directly entered the Nobi Plains from under the mountains of Omino.

    Li Xiao followed the route taken by Shingen last time when he went to Luo. After passing through Ichiyanagi Castle, he led the army directly into Kajida Castle.

    Climbing mountains for days.  The army under Li Xiao's command was indeed very exhausted.

    In front of the fire pit on the top floor of the castle tower, Li Xiao took off his muddy shoes and socks under the service of Usami Nami.

    Looking from the window pane, this heavy autumn rain is still falling, and the rain does not stop.

    Usami Nami brought a basin of hot water and asked Li Xiao to put his feet in it.

    As soon as his cold feet were immersed in the steaming hot water, a very comfortable feeling suddenly spread to almost every pore on Li Xiao's body.

    After feeling like his soul was about to go to heaven, Li Xiao immediately picked up the military newspaper.  Look carefully before coming.

    After arriving at Kajida Castle, Li Xiao ordered the troops to stay and rest while trying to find out about the main force of the Oda Army.

    When Li Xiao heard that the main force of the Oda Army was on the front line of Ogaki City, with a strength of 120,000 to 30,000 troops, he suddenly felt a little numb.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­  The power has increased greatly. Based on Takeda Nobushige's and Li Xiao's previous estimates, the mobilization strength of the Oda family's maximum army of 100,000 was actually 20 to 30% higher.

    Usami Nami helped Li Xiao rub his feet carefully while raising her head to look at Li Xiao.  Asked: "What's wrong? The battle situation ahead is different?"

    Li Xiaoxin felt that her toes felt comfortable under the moderate gentle rubbing of Usami Nami¡¯s slender and smooth fingers.

    The beauty washes her feet.  This is really the pleasure of life, but Li Xiao told the truth about the strength of the Oda army.

    Li Xiaoyan said: "Although fighting is not about addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, one plus one equals two, whoever has more troops can win. But the side with more troops will always have a certain psychological advantage in all aspects, and this is indisputable.  fact."

    Usami Nami raised her head and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the famous Major General Konoe would also be afraid."

    Li Xiao laughed and said: "Of course, in every battle, you have to walk on thin ice. If you don't know how to be afraid, you are just a reckless man."

    Usami Nami shook her head slightly, not commenting.

    At this time, Li Xiao suddenly moved his hand, stretched out directly from Usami Nami's waist, picked her up directly, and then pressed his whole body heavily to the ground.

    With a pop, the water basin was knocked over to the ground, soaking both of them.

    Usami Nami was pinned down by Li Xiao, her face was ashamed and red, she protested loudly and said: "Your Highness, you are here again, it is daytime."

    Li Xiao laughed loudly and said: "So what during the day? There is still no movement in your stomach. Of course I have to work hard!"

    After saying that, Li Xiao pressed his whole body on Nami and blocked the other person's lips with his mouth. He only heard Usami and Nami making a sound of moaning.

    Li Xiao felt proud in his heart, but he roughly pulled apart her clothes with his hands.

    After Usami Nami resisted unwillingly, she saw that she couldn't push Li Xiao away and stopped moving at the moment.

    Immediately under Li Xiao's action, Usami Nami gradually blushed, her lips slightly, only a low, almost inaudible cry came out.

    After a long time, the movement in the attic of the castle tower stopped.

    Usami Nami closed her eyes tightly, with sweat on her forehead, and lay quietly on the bed.

    Li Xiao stood up, covered Usami Nami with a quilt, walked to the side and put on clothes, lit a candle, and sat quietly under the light.

    Li Xiao looked at the heavy rain outside the window and thought in his heart that under this heavy rain, the Nakasendo Road must be more difficult to travel. At this speed, I am afraid that Takeda Nobushige's main army of the Takeda family would have to wait a day longer to pass the Nakasendo Road.  .

    If this is the case, then Ogaki Castle, where the Oda Army gathers, is only a few dozen miles away from Beifang City.

    If the Oda army attacks the northern city, then it would be unwise to fight against the Oda family's army with its own strength of 20,000.

    But if they retreat from the northern city, they will rebel against Ando and the food supplies they have obtained will be lost. This is really a big loss to the entire war situation.

    Therefore, Li Xiao must come up with a way before all the Oda family's troops are gathered in two or three days, otherwise he will have to give up the northern city.

    After Li Xiao thought about it again and again, his eyes suddenly lit up, he pushed the paper door open and walked out.

    Outside the door, Li Xiao's close-up master, Kazuha Oka, and two close-up warriors were all guarding the outside.

    When they saw Li Xiao walking out, the three of them bowed down together.

    Li Xiao said in a deep voice: "Send Henggu Xingqing to see me immediately."

    Boom boom!

    In the sky of Dong Meinong, dark clouds are rolling, and the moving clouds are quickly covering them.

    Immediately afterwards there was another round of showers, falling from the sky.

    The rain in autumn is extremely cold, no less cold than the rain in winter.

    It was hard work, and the Takeda Army officers and soldiers were on their way on Nakasendo.

    ??Everyone was watered by the heavy rain, making everything wet inside and outside.

    But even though the weather was so bad, the soldiers of the Takeda Army, after using the slang of the Kai countryside to curse the weather, had no intention of stopping, and kept their heads down and worked hard to move forward.

    Wearing a thick raincoat, Takeda Nobushige couldn't help but look solemn as he looked at the heavy rain.

    Takeda Nobushige handed the letter in his hand to Takeda Noburen and said: "Major General Konoe has written that the main force of the Oda family will be assembled in Ogaki Castle in the near future and will go out to the northern city at that time."

    Takeda Xinlian read Li Xiao's letter and said: "Beifang City is an important town on Zhongshan Road, and it has enough military supplies, so it can be used by the Shangluo army. If it is lost, it will have a great impact on the war situation."

    Takeda Nobushige nodded and said: "I guess the general of the Oda Army also saw this, so he wanted to force our army to speed up and then wait for work, and fight a decisive battle with our army between the Northern City and Ogaki Castle.  "

    Takeda Nobuyan said: "Yes, brother, it is not impossible, but if our army slows down and advances slowly, then the northern city is very likely to fall."

    After Takeda Nobushige paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, he slapped the bamboo stick in his hand and said: "The Northern City cannot be lost, and the main army, under the heavy rain, rushed to the Northern City rashly to fight the Oda army decisively.  There is also a defeat but no victory. We must find a strategy to balance the two powers."

    This is really a dilemma decision.

    ¡° Takeda Nobushige and Takeda Nobunaga all suffered from temporary difficulties.

    Takeda Nobushige thought for a moment and said: "Order the main army to postpone the advance!"

    After hearing this, Takeda Nobulen said: "Brother, this decision needs to be made with caution."

    Takeda Nobushige nodded and said: "I understand."

    At that moment, Takeda Nobushige said in a deep voice: "Immediately issue an order to Li Xiao in my name, asking him to defend the Northern City. In addition, I ordered the three legions of Sanada Masayuki, Yasukina Integrity, and Baba Nobuka to quickly reinforce the Northern City without sacrificing their physical strength.  , In addition, Satake Yoshige and Tokugawa Ieyasu led the Tokaido military force, took the highway from Owari, entered Mino territory, and reinforced the Northern City."

    "Each legion must not violate this order or delay it. If anyone is discovered, he will be severely punished afterwards."

    As soon as Takeda Nobunaga finished speaking, Takeda Nobunaga's body was shaken. Taking advantage of the situation, Takeda Nobunaga grasped Takeda Nobunaga's intention, and Leng Buyou felt a chill in his heart.

    At the same time, the Oda Army in Ogaki Castle was in its main formation.

    A rumor is spreading to all parties at an extremely fast speed.

    The soldiers of the Oda family whispered to each other and discussed endlessly.

    Soon after, the rumor spread throughout the countryCamp.

    There is a letter currently displayed on Oda Nobutada¡¯s desk.

    After reading this letter, Oda Nobutada was trembling all over and shouted loudly for a long time. Standing close outside the military tent, he could only faintly hear words like, I want to kill the monkey, I want to kill the monkey.

    Soon after, Oda Army generals such as Akechi Mitsuhide, Mori Nagaka, Ikeda Tsuneaki, Hosokawa Fujitaka, etc. were all called into the military tent to discuss matters.

    The military meeting lasted until midnight, and no one knew what was said during the meeting. However, after the military meeting, all the generals of the Oda army were seen with pale faces.

    Early the next morning, Ikeda Hengxing, the guardian of Settsu who had just arrived at Ogaki Castle, led his 10,000 troops again and hurriedly turned back to the west.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????? among all the ashigaru, all settled their inner suspicions.

    Hashiba Hideyoshi is going to rebel.

    In fact, after Li Xiao, who was in Kajida Castle, heard the news that in Ogaki Castle, Ikeda Hengxing led an army of 10,000 people and rushed to Settsu.

    Li Xiao couldn¡¯t help but have a smile on his face that showed he had sold his plan.  (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (.) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
