    After listening to Tokugawa Ieyasu's words, Li Xiao smiled and said: "Your Highness Mikawa, you are serious. I am so small and weak, how can I help you?"

    Tokugawa Ieyasu looked at Li Xiao and said: "Mr. Yakata, Oda's army of one hundred thousand is in front of us. How can there be a complete egg in the army? If we face it alone, it will be difficult for us to survive alone. Now you and I need to work together in the same boat."

    Li Xiao looked at Tokugawa Ieyasu and carefully recognized the expression on his face.

    But Tokugawa Ieyasu's slightly dark face showed a bit of sincerity. He looked at Li Xiao without averting his eyes for a moment, showing that he was magnanimous in his heart.

    Li Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Sanhe Palace, what are your suggestions?"

    When Tokugawa Ieyasu was about to speak, suddenly from outside the formation curtain, a man approached and said loudly: "Report to the lord, Your Highness Satake is coming with his army."

    Li Xiao listened and said with a smile: "It turns out that Guiyi is here. His Highness Sanhe, why don't you and I go out together to welcome him?"

    Hearing this, Tokugawa Ieyasu nodded and said, "That's exactly it."

    "Tell me, Li Xiao and Tokugawa Ieyasu both rode their horses to the distance, and saw a large army coming not far away.

    General Li Xiao raised his horse whip, pointed at the army, and said: "Gui's righteousness and bravery are the best in Guandong, and the Bando warriors under his command are also the heroes of Guandong. The majesty of his military force can be seen."

    After hearing what Li Xiao said, Tokugawa Ieyasu said from the bottom of his heart: "Yes, ghosts are heroes because of their righteousness."

    Soon after, under several flags, a group of warriors led by Satake Yishige galloped to Li Xiao.

    Everyone on both sides dismounted.

    Li Xiao carefully looked at this Guandong hero.  I saw Satake Yizhong, with a tall forehead and a broad face, prominent cheekbones, and piercing eyes. At a glance, I could tell that this man was an extremely individual and independent man who made decisions that were not easy to change.

    "And Satake Yishige was also sizing up Li Xiao and Tokugawa Ieyasu.

    "However, Li Xiao and Tokugawa Ieyasu, one is tall and burly, while the other is slightly shorter and fatter, so it is easy to distinguish them clearly.

    Satake Yoshizaki said: "I am really lucky to see Mr. Yakata and Mr. Ieyasu here."

    Li Xiao smiled slightly and exchanged greetings with Tokugawa Ieyasu for a while.

    Not long after, Satake Yoshige obviously couldn't stand the politeness anymore and said directly: "Mr. Yakata, now the main army of the Takeda family is delayed and difficult to arrive, and the Oda family's 100,000 troops are on the side and have been assembled. If we attack with all our strength, I will  No one can resist it."

    "Now we need someone to step forward and take the responsibility to turn the tide. I am convinced of Mr. Yakata's character and am willing to follow him and fight side by side."

    Satake Yoshigeage is a wealthy family daimyo.  He said this to Li Xiao, so he lowered his posture quite a bit.

    Li Xiao accepts it, and refuses it.

    And Tokugawa Ieyasu also said: "Master Yakata, it is true that at this point, it is useless to expect Duke Chaozue to lead the army. I am also willing to lead the Mikawa warriors to advance and retreat with Duke Yakata."

    Li Xiao heard what these two people said and understood immediately.

    Satake Yoshitsune and Tokugawa Ieyasu were both impeccable in their words and deeds.

    Their decision.  It means advancing and retreating together with Li Xiao, or turning on the binding mode.

    Li Xiao now has two choices. If he has to fight, he will stick to the North City. If he retreats and abandons the North City, then Takeda Nobushige will be held accountable for this responsibility in the future.  Li Xiao, Satake Yoshige, and Tokugawa Ieyasu all shouldered the blame.

    This strategy is deeply rooted in the essence of Chinese culture. It is the so-called collective responsibility system. In other words, it is also the collective irresponsibility system.

    Well, your Takeda Shinan will turn his face in the future. With the ability, we have all the three big names of us all.

    Li Xiaoyan said: "I deeply bear the great trust of my master's family, and I will definitely decide to defend the northern city. You two are really willing to advance and retreat with me."

    Li Xiao thought that if he said this, Tokugawa Ieyasu and Satake Yoshijue would hesitate.

    Unexpectedly, Satake Yoshitaka and Tokugawa Ieyasu also said categorically: "Of course I am willing to fight to the death with Lord Yakata and achieve eternal fame."

    Well, these two old foxes kicked the ball back to themselves again.

    Li Xiao cursed secretly in his heart.

    September 17th.

    This day and night in the northern city is the most difficult to endure.

    Ogaki Castle is very close to the North City. Li Xiao, Tokugawa Ieyasu, and Satake Yoshige all sent their own ninjas to conduct investigations on the main movements of the opponent's Oda army.

    And this night, news finally came back from the front.

    The 112,000-strong main force of the Oda Army has finally completed its assembly and is hiding.?There are signs of an all-out pressure on the northern city.

    And now in the northern city, Li Xiao brought 20,000 troops from Kaga Echu, Tokugawa Ieyasu had 10,000, Satake Yoshiju had 5,000, Shima Sheng Menong and Meinong had 2,000, and Ando had 1,000 troops.  Less than 40,000.

    The northern city is too small to station troops.

    Therefore, as soon as the Oda family's 112,000 troops arrive, if Li Xiao does not retreat, the two sides will engage in a decisive battle in the wild.

    If there is a decisive battle, the disparity in strength between the two sides will be too great.

    That night, Li Xiao, Tokugawa Ieyasu, and Satake Yishige were all inside the main formation of the Takeda Army.

    The three of them were sitting on the horse with their hands on their knees and had not slept all night.

    By daybreak, the three of them were not sleepy at all.

    Just when the morning light of the rising sun gradually broke through the thick fog.

    As soon as a fast horse came galloping, I heard the sound of someone rolling off the horse, and came from outside the formation curtain, I have military information and want to meet the lord, so say.

    Hearing this, Li Xiao, Satake Yoshige, and Tokugawa Ieyasu all looked at each other and wondered whether the main force of the Oda Army was out.

    Soon after, the opponent passed the interrogation and entered the formation.

    "Reporting to my lord, the Suruga Legion and the Ueno Legion have arrived overnight!"

    The warrior shouted to Li Xiaoyan.

    Hearing the news, Tokugawa Ieyasu, who had been frowning all night, stood up from the saddle with great joy, closed his palms covered with leather gloves, and made a muffled sound.

    Tokugawa Ieyasu said loudly: "What a wonderful singing bird that reports happy events!"

    Li Xiao smiled and put the riding whip under his arm. He looked at Satake Yishige and saw the other man nodded slowly, and a long white breath came out of his mouth.

    The three of them walked side by side to the hill. After seeing the autumn harvest, it was obvious that on a wide thick tail plain, the two armies were crawling forward like big pythons.

    The war horses neighed for a long time, the blades of the Eredivisie clanged, and the flag-finger of Liulianqian puffed in the wind.

    Baba Nobuka, whose hair and beard were all white but still looked energetic, and Sanada Masayuki, the youngest general of the army among the Takeda family, rode up the mountain together.

    The five people met together on the mountain. Li Xiao looked at everyone and couldn't help but laugh at himself, thinking that this was the battle that would determine the situation of the world, and his own lineup would be the one to decide.

    It¡¯s really much thinner than expected.  (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.)
