Samurai of the Takeda Family

The 402nd chapter comes to aid

When Oda Nobunaga heard the news of the fall of Kajita Castle, his body was shocked and he shouted: "Where is Saito Toriji, whether it is life or death? Does he understand the importance of this city to Mino and even my Oda family?"

The samurai said embarrassingly: "Master, the city has just fallen, and the specific battle report is still unknown. TXT e-book download**"

"Hún account!" Oda Nobunaga yelled, and then said, "We must not let the Takeda army seize this city, stand a firm foothold in Mino, pass the order, advance immediately, send troops to Jiaji Tiancheng, and everyone will return to the territory to carry out the greatest Mobilize, and lead the army to join me under the castle of Kajita, and fight the Takeda army!"

Hearing Oda Nobunaga's words, the generals of the Oda clan screamed.

Oda Nobunaga watched his retainers retreat, his gaze was very different, and he thought in his heart that if Kajita Castle was lost, Mino would be in danger. If Shingen took advantage of the momentum to advance, I could only retreat to Owari and stick to the only choice for a decisive battle with Takeda.

This situation must not be allowed to happen, so Kajita Castle must not fall into Takeda's hands.

Kajita Castle was besieged by the Takeda Army for two days before it was captured.

Now the city is somewhat dilapidated, the trenches under the city are blocked, and several sections of the city wall have collapsed, leaving traces of artillery bombardment on it.

On the other hand, the arrow scull on the top of the outer maru was half-collapsed, and the corpse hanging on it was still half-hung, and sparks were still burning on the arrow scull.

Amidst a pile of rubble, cadavers carrying papaya flags were searched and moved out. They were thrown into a small lotus load-carriage, ready to be dragged out of the city for burial.

Now Kajida Castle has returned to calm, and Takeda Hiroshima's banner is flying high above the castle.

Li Xiao was standing on the window sill of the Tianshou Pavilion at the moment, looking down. After the city was broken, the law and order here also stabilized.

The cavalry of the Takeda Army carrying the flag of the sun and the moon on their backs are now patrolling in the middle of the castle town. There is no incident of looting.

Li Xiao turned around, three warriors were kneeling in front of him.

These three people knelt on the ground one in front and two in the back. The current one is a bit old, about seventy years old.

Li Xiao looked at the other party and said: "Kajada Castle is a heavy city of Zhongnong, connecting Hida, Omeno, and Higashi Mino. Since the Heian era, it has been the heart of the world. Now Takeda’s great food means yù Shangluo. This place is in the home. Its status is of utmost importance, and your Oshima family’s contribution to the city in this battle can be said to have made a great contribution. I will do what I promised you in advance."

It turned out that Kaji Tiancheng fought together that day, and after Li Xiao defeated Shibata's army, Saito saw that the situation was unfavorable, and led the army back to the defense of the city.

So Li Xiao led his army to besiege the city, but Jiazhi Tianzhong also defended the city. During the two-day battle, even with the aid of a big tube as a siege weapon, Li Xiao broke through the two city sculls outside the city. And outside the city pill. Book mí group 2

However, the resistance of Jiazhi Tian was very fierce, and both sides suffered a lot of casualties.

In the middle of the night of the second day, Saito Toshiji's retainer Oshima Mitsuyoshi took the initiative to contact the Takeda Army to ask the Takeda Army to guarantee the conditions for the settlement of the Oshima family territory and promise to dedicate the city secretly.

Li Xiao immediately agreed.

When Oshima’s family set fires all over the city at night, there was a big luàn in the city, so the Takeda army took the luàn and attacked Kajida City.

The lord Saito Toshiji was guarded by Yuasa Shinsix and other loyal vassals, and escaped from a fierce battle, but Kaji Tiancheng finally fell into the hands of Li Xiao.

For the Oshima Mitsuyoshi who surrendered to his back, Li Xiao knew him. In history, the opponent was the lord of the Mino Seki Clan. He took refuge in the Eastern Army during the Sekihara War. He won a political future and led 18 thousand. Qianshi, and this person actually lived to be ninety-seven years old, he was considered a character who witnessed most of the Warring States period.

And now Mitsuyoshi Oshima came out of the Shi Oda family as a bow-foot light-head, and Shi Toyotomi Hideyoshi was once again in history with a bow-foot light-weight general all the way, and the bow general was promoted to be a celebrity in archery.

At the moment, Oshima Guangyi and his two sons were very happy when they heard what Li Xiao promised before. It is a blessing to be able to keep his family name after the defeat, and getting the security of the territory is an exceptional treatment.

Although the conditions have been negotiated beforehand, Li Xiao is now the person who has decided to live, kill and plunder. Even if he regrets the previous promise, it is nothing.

So seeing Li Xiao fulfilling his promise, the three fathers and sons were all happy, thank you and leave.

Li Xiao also turned and walked to the corridor, looking down at the city.

It is not that Li Xiao is not defenseless against the three fathers and sons. He transferred the two sons of Oshima Mitsuyoshi Mitsui, Mitsumasa, and Chōu to Qibenbei and went into official positions with a decisive capacity.

It can also be regarded as holding the hostages in their hands, so as to prevent the Oshima family from turning back.

Li Xiao's policy in Meinong is still the same as in Vietnam. Whether it is fighting for the world or digesting territory on the spot, the role of the leading party is definitely not to be ignored.

Li Xiao didn't kill a Liu Zhimo, and he blocked the Dadao family in order to win over the local rich family in Meinong.

Of course, for such a person, Li Xiao used it, and could not trust it. For Kaji Tiancheng, he had to appoint his confidant in charge to control the city of Zhongmino.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao patted the railing of the railing and captured Liucheng and Jiajitian Castle. After Omeno and Zhongmino became one piece, he was waiting for the faithful of Akiyama to clear out Tomino’s power. It is connected with Takeda's skills.

At this time, a samurai walked upstairs and reported to Li Xiao: "Master, just received a secret report from the ninjas. In the direction of Mino, the Oda clan began to mobilize troops in the collar?"

"Oh?" Li Xiao was slightly surprised, because he was worried that Oda Nobunaga would lead the main force to come to the county to trouble him and fight decisively with him. Therefore, Li Xiao spread a large number of detailed works, monitoring Nobunaga's every move near Gifu Castle.

So now there is a slight disturbance in Gifu City, and the ninja knows about it with Li Xiao as quickly as possible.

Li Xiao paced in the room and suddenly asked, "Does Oda move eastward or southward?"

To advance east is to send troops to Jiaji Tiancheng to deal with Li Xiao, and to go south is to go to Toe, where the main force of Tokugawa Ieyasu and Takeda Shingen will be joined in a decisive battle.

Li Xiao thought about it, if Nobunaga enters the army, he has only these two options, and there is no third answer.

The samurai froze for a moment, and said, "This subordinate doesn't know it."

Li Xiao sighed and said, "Retreat."

"Oh!"

The samurai retired, and Li Xiao thought about it again. He felt that compared to the decisive battle with Takeda Shingen, Nobunaga himself would lead the army to make trouble for himself.

So if Nobunaga led the main force of the Oda family to come, with Li Xiao's current strength, the now dilapidated Kajita Castle would still be unable to resist.

If so, doesn't it mean that Li Xiao has to give up, this Jiaji Tiancheng that has just acquired, this is simply food in his mouth for Li Xiao.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao immediately ordered the city to guard and repair the city walls. On the other hand, he wrote letters to Shingen Takeda and Akiyama believers, asking them for help.

Omino, Gunjo Hachiman Castle.

It was already in a blizzard.

Because the road was blocked by heavy snow, the former Takeda army had to shovel snow to advance, so the speed along the way was extremely slow.

At this time, the envoy in front of him saw the castle head of Gujo Hachiman Castle and the flying Takeda Hiroshima banner, so he immediately ran back to report with joy.

Therefore, when the marching Takeda army heard that the place where they rested was right in front of them, they couldn't help but be overjoyed. The cheers resounded from the beginning to the end of the team. The morale of the marching team was instantly boosted, and the pace of the march was accelerated together.

Seeing this, Machang Changfang, who was worried about marching in the wind and snow, which greatly affected the morale of Machangchang, breathed a sigh of relief.

Baba Changfang led the Hida Etsuzhong Army's three thousand military forces, marched along the Hokuriku Road to Echizen, then turned to enter Mino, and has now arrived in Gunjo.

Soon in the direction of Gujo Hachiman Castle, the Takeda army was already on the march, and they immediately sent someone to contact him.

"In Xiaqiben samurai Yamamoto, I will visit Lord Baba and Lord Inner Island. Everything in the city is ready. Only two adults will lead the army to arrive."

Facing the horse farm Changfang, Uchijima Shiri and the two saluted.

Machang Changfang and Uchishima Shiri looked at each other, knowing that the other party was the son of the former first military division of the family.

Machang Changfang asked, "Thanks, I don't know how much food is in the county? How long will it be enough for our army?"

Yamamoto said in Tibetan words: "When the lord went to Zhongnong, he took away some of it. At the moment, the army in the city is enough for the horse farm army to use for two months, but just learned the news that the lord has captured Kajida Castle. Kajida Castle is Mino. The granary, the rations must be worry-free now."

"Lord, captured Jiaji Tiancheng?"

Machang Changfang and Uchijima are both gods.

Uchijima's righteous said: "If you capture Kajita Castle, you can become a horn with Gujo Hachiman Castle. The defense strength is greatly increased. It is not always possible to obtain reinforcements from Shinano for your family. This is a great benefit to the lord."

Machang Changfang nodded, and said, "Master Inner Island, it makes sense."

"But the two adults, according to the next point of view, the current situation of the lord is not very good."

People always listen to good things, but don't want to listen to opposition.

So now Machang Changfang looked down and asked, "Why?"

Yamamoto Kanzo said: "The role of Kajita Castle on Mino is known to both the lord and the adults, and Nobunaga cannot be ignorant of it. If this city is lost, the impact on the Oda clan is obviously better than that of the original clan. Even bigger, I am worried that Nobunaga will send out a large army to attack Kajita Castle."

As soon as Yamamoto's words were made, Masabo Baba and Ri Uchijima were both startled.

It is not unreasonable for the opponent to predict and judge the future of the battle.

If Nobunaga led a large army to Kaji Tiancheng, with Li Xiao's current strength, it would be far beyond resist.

Machang Changfang said in a deep voice: "Master Yamamoto, it makes sense. I don't think we can stay in the county for too long. If we take a day off tomorrow, we will immediately go to Zhongnong and the main guild. If it is too late, the snow will come again, this The road between the Omenon Mountains is even harder."

Uchijima nodded, and said: "I agree with Lord Racecourse's decision, presumably Lord Shioya has no opinion on this."

Yamamoto Kanzo saw that his opinions were accepted, and he said with joy: "That would be great. With the help of these three thousand troops, the lord's military disadvantages in Nakano and Oda will be greatly improved."

Machang Changfang said: "Then it should not be too late, our army will now enter Gujo Hachiman Castle immediately."
