Akechi Mitsuhide looked at Oda Nobutada, the panic in his expression just flashed by.
Seeing that the other party seemed to be somewhat out of his control, Akechi Mitsuhide said calmly: "Reporting to my lord, reinforcements from all walks of life of the Takeda Army are now going to the Northern City for reinforcements. My intention is to use the Northern City as bait to prepare We used the strategy of encircling the point to mobilize reinforcements, but His Highness Nobuo was incompetent and was delayed for half a day by only 500 people, which greatly affected our army's strategy of annihilating the Takeda Army."
"I am so loyal, please let me know from my lord!"
Hearing what Akechi Mitsuhide said, Oda Nobutada thought for a while and felt that the tone just now was too harsh, and said: "Hinata Mori-sama, in this case, let's remove Nobuo from his position as a forward general, and let this end everything."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded immediately and said: "My lord is wise, I recommend Kamao Kenhide, the father and son of Kamao clan, to replace Nobuo Oda as the former general of the army."
After hearing Akechi Mitsuhide¡¯s words, Oda Nobutada clapped his hands and said, ¡°Hinata Mori-sama¡¯s words resonate deeply with my heart.¡±
The second daughter of Oda Nobunaga, Fuyuhime, was the wife of Kamao clan, so she was regarded as one of Oda Nobutada's "ones". What's more, the father and son were known to be good at fighting, so they were recognized by Oda Nobutada.
By the river.
After fighting fiercely for half a day, Honda Tadakatsu retreated to the valley.
"And most of the five hundred Sanhe warriors were lost, with only more than two hundred people.
The Mikuni Black under Honda Tadakatsu¡¯s crotch was breathing heavily.
Honda Tadakatsu jumped off his horse and lightly hit his beloved horse on the head with his fist. He shouted: "It's worthless. It's exhausted so quickly."
Tsuzuki Hidetsuna said: "My lord, after fighting fiercely for half a day, even if there is no shortage of manpower, the horse power is still exhausted."
Honda Tadakatsu nodded. At this time, a sightseeing man ran down the mountain and said to Honda Tadakatsu: "Report to my lord, the Oda army has come up again."
Honda Tadakatsu raised the dragonfly cutter and said impatiently: "If you can't kill them all no matter what, let's fight again!"
"My lord," Tsuzuki Hidetsuna held the reins of Honda Tadakatsu Mikuni Kuro. Pointing his hand at the injured Mikawa soldiers behind him, he lowered his head in silence.
Seeing this, Honda Tadakatsu cut the dragonfly into pieces and shook his head. He said: "It seems that you are all going to be buried here with me. Hidetsuna, go back and tell the lord about the main force of the Oda army marching towards the northern city. I, Honda Tadakatsu, resisted the Oda army for half a day with 500 men." , tried our best.¡±
"My lord, there is no need to say anything more now. No matter where you go, my subordinates will follow you."
Seeing this, Honda Tadakatsu shook his head helplessly, and immediately gave instructions to the two ashigaru who were the only sons in the family. Let them go back and report the news.
At this moment, Honda Tadakatsu led the remaining two hundred cavalry and broke into the Oda army.
"That person is Honda Tadakatsu!"
"The most powerful general of the Tokugawa family!"
¡°It really lives up to its reputation!¡±
"Run away quickly!"
"I am Heihachiro Honda, who dares to fight with me!"
I saw that wherever Honda Tadakatsu passed by, the officers and soldiers of the Oda Army were invincible. The general of the Ise Army under Oda Nobuo and the Lord of Ise Kameyama Castle, Seki Nobubu, was actually directly charged into the formation by Honda Tadakatsu.
Guan Shengxin himself was shot down by Honda Tadakatsu.
Honda Tadakatsu's gun lifted Guan Shengxin's head, and he couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh. Looking back, the Oda Army organized a large number of troops. His troops have been surrounded.
Especially on their way forward and backward, the Oda Army organized a large number of iron artillery teams.
Honda Tadakatsu knew that no matter how brave he was, he would go through dozens of battles without getting hurt. It is also impossible to escape from the iron cannon.
Honda Tadakatsu made a dragonfly cut, turned over and jumped down from Mikuni Black. He patted his beloved horse and said, "Don't die in this battle with me. Go back to Sanhe. That's your hometown."
San Guohei seemed to understand his master¡¯s intention. He neighed and refused to leave unless he stayed by his master¡¯s side.
"Get out of here!"
Honda Tadakatsu shouted with tears in his eyes.
Facing the heavily surrounded Oda Army, more than a hundred Mikawa warriors behind Honda Tadakatsu were all resigned to death.
And just at this moment, smoke and dust billowed from the north direction.
An unknown number of cavalrymen came from the north and rolled down from the hillock.
"Is it reinforcements?"
"Where did this horse team come from?"
Even though Honda Tadakatsu didn¡¯t care about life and death at this moment, he couldn¡¯t help but have the thought that it was good to live, and he was full of infinite gratitude for the sudden appearance of the cavalry team!
"hostSir, this is the flag with the double pattern of the sun and the moon. This cavalry team belongs to the Hida Etsuchu Corps! "
Tsuzuki Hidetsuna said loudly next to Honda Tadakatsu, "It's the military strength of Major General Konoe. We can be saved."
Honda Tadakatsu¡¯s face remained calm, while the generals under his command began to whisper.
"The mountain people like Kai are so slow. I almost died here, sir."
"Idiot, this is the Hida Echu Army. It was in Nagashino that captured Nobunaga Duke and Konoe Major General. It did not come from Kai."
"Nagashino is really a nightmare, but now we finally don't have to be enemies with the Hida Echu Army. This is really a blessing."
"Oh, the other party is one of the most elite in the world. In the past few years, even Lord Kenshin and Lord Nobunaga have been defeated by their opponents."
"Yes, we are saved this time, but once the Major General of the Guards arrives, there will be nothing for us, so just sit back and rest!"
Just as his subordinates were discussing, Honda Tadakatsu saw hundreds of tachi flying in the air and chopping after the Hida Etsuchu Army's cavalry rushed into the Oda Army.
Wherever the cavalry passed, there was a scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere, and corpses scattered everywhere.
The Oda army was scurrying away one after another.
This cavalry team seemed to disdain to pursue the retreating Oda army, and instead headed directly towards the hillside where they were.
Not long after, the Oda Army's formation was easily penetrated by the Takeda Army's cavalry.
The Takeda Army cavalry rushed directly up the hillside where Honda Tadakatsu was.
The Mikawa soldiers looked at this elite cavalry regiment with lingering fear. Among the other cavalry troops, a general-like figure came to the hillside and asked loudly: "Who is the Tokugawa general Heihachiro Honda? "
Honda Tadakatsu stood beside Three Kingdoms Black and replied in a deep voice: "I am."
After hearing this, the other party stood up and jumped off his horse, and said to Honda Tadashi: "I am the general of the Hida Etsuchu Army Sun and Moon Bei, Tsuchiya Masahe, on the order of the lord, I have come to join Honda's army. .¡±
Honda Tadakatsu saw that the other party really came to save him, and he couldn't help but be moved at the moment, but he said calmly: "Thank you, but I dare to ask where the Konoe Major General is now?"
Tsuchiya Masahiro replied: "My lord, you ordered me to take the first step, and I personally led the main force of the army to a place not far away."
Hearing this, Honda Tadakatsu was confused and said, "Oh? The Major General of the Guards actually arrived in person with his troops. I wonder if I can go and see him."
A few miles away from the northern city, on a small walled city, a huge flag with the character "Li" flying above it.
"Honda Heihachi, would you like to meet with Major General Konoe?"
Honda Tadakatsu said respectfully.
"Oh, Heihachiro, the news that Your Excellency used 500 men to block the 40,000-strong Oda Army has spread throughout the army. I deeply admire the bravery of Your Excellency and the Mikawa warriors. I am also proud that Your Highness Mikawa has a brave general like you. Feeling envious and jealous.¡±
When Honda Tadakatsu heard what Li Xiao said, he couldn't help showing a bit of sincerity and fear, and said: "It's too much praise. Back then, the Major General of the Guards with sixty cavalry dared to defeat Kenshin Gong's eight thousand army. How brave are you? Dare to compare."
Li Xiao couldn¡¯t help laughing when he heard what Honda Tadakatsu said. He didn¡¯t comment on what Honda Tadakatsu said.
"Come and let me introduce you to the generals under my command."
At the moment, Li Xiao introduced Shima Katsume, Hashiba Hidenaga, Todo Takatora, Maeda Toshiie, Otani Yoshitsugi, Jimbo Naganoori, Ichiyanagi Naosue, Sanada Nobushige and others to Honda Tadakatsu.
These retainers, having just heard that Li Xiao praised Honda Tadakatsu, felt a little dissatisfied in their hearts.
When the two sides met, all the generals had some comparisons.
"Finally arrived at the Nobashi Plains."
Seeing them walking out of a mountainous area and trekking on the Nakasendo Road for several days, the Takeda Army's forwards burst into loud cheers from front to back.
The sky cleared up, and the dark clouds that had been accumulating in the sky for a long time dissipated without a trace.
Seeing that the most difficult part of the march was over, the morale of the Takeda Army was boosted.
Takeda Nobushige rode his horse forward slowly, his face, which was used to being calm, showed a bit of joy.
Takeda Nobunaga drove his horse to Takeda Nobushige and said: "Brother, it seems that we can catch up. In a few days, we will arrive at the northern city and join forces with the Major General of the Guards."
"No!" Takeda Nobushige stopped his hand and said, "There is no need to go too fast."
Hearing this, Takeda Nobuyan immediately reined in his horse, looked at Takeda Nobushige and asked: "Brother, you?"
Takeda Nobushige smiled slightly and said: "Xin Lian, you and I have been brothers for decades. Don't you still understand what I mean?"
Takeda Nobuyan took a deep breath and said sharply: "Brother, you can't do this. Where are Li Xiao, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Satake Yoshige, and Sanada Masayuki who are fighting in the front like this?"
Takeda Nobushige waved his hand and said: "Nobulen, you have too much kindness as a woman. If our Takeda family wants to conquer the world, we cannot have the kindness of a woman. In the future, our family will rule the world. These retainers will not be like this." A great name is the same as an unstable factor."
"Now I want to use the hands of the Oda family to weaken it."
Takeda Nobulen was silent for the moment.
Seeing Takeda Nobuyan's face, Takeda Nobushige immediately said: "Don't worry, I won't go too far. When they are in danger, I will lead the army to rescue them. By then, not only will the overall situation be established, , and it can also make these famous people feel kind and grateful to the family."
"This is also so that after the world is unified in the future, the monarch and his ministers can make plans for each other."
Takeda Nobulen gave a bitter smile and said: "Brother, I really put a lot of effort into this. I won't say more in the future." To be continued. .
