Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 440 The Sincerity of Hongan Temple

In front of the Takeda army's onslaught, the Akechi Mitsuhide team opened up a dense defensive formation.

Mori Naga Kejun is on the left, Akechihide is full of troops on the right, and Akechi Mitsuhide is leading the army in the center.

Although it was less than half of the Takeda army, under the tenacious command of Mitsuhide Wiseke, it fully supported the Takeda army's three large-scale assaults.

Atsui Kenglong, Yusaku Tsutsumitsu, Kai's family, and Tufei's family, such as Noden's family, have no fighting strength, so even if they do their best, they can't shake the line of the Wise Army.

And Nagaken Jinbo, Hideharu Kano, Naosuke Ichiyanagi and other generals under Li Xiao's command all tried their best.

They all led their troops to fight to the death, and several times wanted to clash with Mitsuhide's position, and approached the main formation of the Oda Army.

But every time, under the command of Akechi Mitsuhide, he repelled a **** battle.

Li Xiao saw the fierce fighting in the Central Committee, and his expression sank.

Ambushing for himself and defending by inferior forces, Mitsuhide Achievement can actually last for so long, but he is a celebrity who is accustomed to fighting.

Recalling the battle of Kaji Tiancheng, if it were not for Li Xiao's five standing positions, under the situation at that time and at a military disadvantage, Li Xiao's army had long been wiped out by Shibata's army and was completely defeated under the castle.

Shibata, wise, and Hashiba Hideyoshi, who has not touched the above, but is not inferior to these two people, and Takigawa Kazuka true Oda four heavenly kings are all easy people.

"Let the order go on, stop the offensive, and reorganize the army!"

Li Xiao said immediately.

As soon as Li Xiaozhi's order came out, his vassals were unknown.

"But the lord, the wise army won't be able to support it. Just reorganize the offensive again," Yamamoto said from the side.

Thinking of the temptation to wipe out the Wise Mitsuhide Army before him, Li Xiao finally resisted, shook his head, and said: "Every battle requires seven points of vigor and three points for himself. When the victory or defeat is not known, it is not acceptable. Do your best."

"Now that the war has lasted for so long, our army is exhausted. If the Oda Army has another army at this time, and if we attack with all our strength, the whole army is in danger of being destroyed. Be cautious in everything, nothing will be wrong. ."

The generals of the Takeda army were unconvinced, and the Wise Army has been under siege for a long time. If the Oda Army has come to rescue, it has already appeared, and if the offensive ceases, it is likely to miss the opportunity to wipe out the Wise Army.

However, General Takeda did not dare to question Li Xiao's decision.

The several reserve teams that immediately attacked all stopped their offensive and retreated and regrouped.

And at this time, Hideyoshi Hashiba, who was watching the battle on the side of the mountain, waited for a long time to see the Takeda Army's flaws, but at this time, seeing the Takeda Army reorganizing the battle, it seemed that he wanted to fight again.

Hideyoshi Hashiba's face sank immediately, and with a wave of his hand, he pointed at the Takeda army down the mountain and said, "Get out!"

Suddenly, the three thousand firewood soldiers who had been ambushing from the forest for a long time appeared.

"It's Hashiba Hideyoshi!"

Li Xiao's expression changed, but he was cautious in advance and reclaimed his troops. He didn't expect that Yuchai Hideyoshi would have been lying ambush for a long time, like a poisonous snake that had been lurking for a long time, looking for a chance to give him a fatal blow.

"Order Shinbo Nagaken to resist, Hashiba Hideyoshi's attack!"

Li Xiao made a judgment at the moment and sent the strongest Jinbao army to resist, otherwise if Hashiba Hideyoshi's new force were to be killed in the battle, several of his weaker reserve teams would immediately collapse.

But fortunately, the Wise Mitsuhide team put on a defensive position with an iron barrel. It would not be easy to switch from defensive to offensive. Otherwise, the combination of Yuchai and Wise would have suffered a big loss on the spot.

Jinbo Nagaken had just retreated from the front of the formation, and after receiving Li Xiao's order, he opened the defense against Hashiba Hideyoshi's North Omi Army in front of the formation.

Hideyoshi Hashiba's Kita Omi Corps, after the severance of Kanezaki, encircled and wiped out the Asai family and other battles, made outstanding military exploits.

Hideyoshi and Liru, the lord of Miyabe Castle, Miyabe Jijun, the lord of Yamamoto Castle, Aki Sadasei, as well as Suga Koroku, and Asano Nagaya's Namikawa.

Jinbo Nagaken's Jinbo army was immediately attacked by Hashiba Hideyoshi's army, and after a fierce battle, it was repelled by a hundred steps.

At this time, Ichimo Ichimo, Yamamoto Kanzo led the horseback riding team just rounding back to the flank of the Hashiba Hideyoshi team, and was about to attack, but it happened to encounter Hajimoto, who was directly under the Hashiba team.

Hashiba's team encountered the Takeda army riding team, and was immediately unceremonious. Among them, the generals Nagamasa Asano, Yoshiharu Horio, Kazutoyo Yamauchi, Kazuchi Nakamura, Masanori Fukushima, Naofo Higuchi, Kato Kaaki, Katagiri Kazumoto all together to Takeda The army attacked vigorously.

Among these generals, such as Fukushima Masanori, Wakisaka Yasuji, and Katagiri Katsumoto are the third of the seven famous Jianyake guns in the future.

Yiliu Naomo, Yamamoto Kanzo, where are these wolves and tigers, the enemy of the Yuchai army, the Takeda army riding team suffered a lot of losses.

Ichiyanagi Naomo was even more confronted by a double battle between Wakisaka Yasuji and Katagiri Kazumoto two young warriors of the Hasai army who were less than ten years old.

Even if Yiliu Zhimo's martial arts is strong, it is not against the offensive of these two men. At the moment, Liu Zhimo can only abandon the martial arts festival and can only retreat.

Wakizaka Yasuji, Katagiri Kazumoto two chasing after him.

Katagiri Kazumoto shoots a bow and shoots an arrow, and raises his hand to a Liu Zhimo to get an arrow.

The arrow hit his right arm and Yiliu Zhimo rolled off his horse.

Wakisaka Yasuji and Katagiri Kazumoto were overjoyed, and they hurried forward to ask for his head.

Seeing the two killed, Yiliu Zhimo was about to roll over and get up, but found that his limbs were weak.

Just when Yiliu Zhimo was about to shout, "My life is over."

I saw a war horse with a satin-like fur next to him galloping, welcoming Wakizaka Yasuji and Katagiri Kazumoto.

The person here is Li Xiao!

It turned out that he saw the left-wing crisis of the Takeda Army and personally led the side to rescue him.

Seeing the opponent's general commanding a horse to kill, Wakisaka Yasuji, Katagiri Kazumoto was at a loss.

Everyone knows that the opponent is one of the most powerful fighters in the world.

And the black forging under Li Xiao's crotch was as fast as an electric flash, suddenly approaching the two of them.

Seeing that these two people still had a panic on their faces, Li Xiao was even more rude and raised his guns.

In the midair, he shot and killed, Katagiri Kieyuan flew off the horse with blood, and was shot and killed by Li Xiao, asking for it!

Seeing that Li Xiao was so powerful, Wakisaka Yasuji hurriedly retreated with fear of revenge for Katagiri Katsumoto.

"Katagiri!"

Hideyoshi Hashiba, who was watching the battle on the mountain, saw that his general was killed by Li Xiao.

However, in the situation, the Hachai Army and the Wise Army still overwhelmed the Takeda Army.

Although the samurai Katagiri Kaemoto of the Hashiba army was begged by Li Xiao, after the fierce battle, the Makino Kamisuke team of the Takeda army was defeated, and Shichiro Ayu, the lord of the castle, was taken by the fifteen-year-old samurai Fukushima Masanori, who was only fifteen years old by Hashibashi Hideyoshi. .

The Takeda army also fought and retreated, retreating across the river, and the two sides fought until sunset. The Takeda army was still in a stable formation. In the end, it was wise, and the Hachai army could only retreat weakly.

In this battle, the two sides retreated in a tie.

General Li Xiao stationed at the border of Kaga that night, while continuing to confront the wise, Hashiba Oda army, while receiving the Honganji believers who had retreated to Kaga.

At night, those who retreated from the defeat of Toba Castle, Shimon Raijun, Shimon Raizhao, and Qisase Zhou and others led less than 300 monks and soldiers, and more than 2,000 believers joined Li Xiao.

The hongan temple of the Shengxing Temple in Viet-Zhong was prosperous, and the 5,000 Vietnamese reinforcements led by Lianqin from the Hongan-ji Temple in Ruiquan Temple had just arrived in the Li Xiao barracks.

In the middle of the night, Li Xiao had a military discussion with these Kaga and the officials of the Vietnamese Hongan Temple.

Xian Rong, Lian Qin, Xia Lai Zhao, and Qili Lai have had a lot of dealings with Li Xiao on Thursday, and they all looked dejected when they saw Li Xiao.

At the moment gathered here in Kaga, only less than 10,000 believers remain.

At the beginning of the battle from Kaga, the 140,000 Honganji army was defeated by the Oda army in just a few days. Tens of thousands of believers were killed by Nobunaga's butcher's sword, and the rest were scattered.

All four of them knew that if it wasn't for this time, Li Xiao led the army to help, and the Pure Land Shinshu in Kaga would have been destroyed.

However, Xia Jian Lai Zhao, Qili Lai on Tuesday, Jiahe Yixiangzong's guidance, are usually used to strengths, and now they are not willing to bow their heads to Li Xiao and say anything of gratitude.

On the contrary, Honganji was proud and uncompromising, and said: "Tajima Shou-sama, if you don’t come to help this time, the consequences would be disastrous. On behalf of the people of Kaga Etsuchu, I would like to thank the hundreds of thousands of people in Kaga. Thank you for your help. Keep it in my heart."

After hearing this, Li Xiao smiled gently and said: "I dare not be it."

At this time, Shimona Lai Jun suddenly stood up, clenched his fist, and said loudly: "Nobunaga committed a **** debt to Echizen, and we must not just let it go. At the moment, reinforcements have come to the Yuezhong branch monastery, Li Tamma. The Shou and the Eight Thousand Army is here, and we can go back to fight the Oda Army and retake Echizen."

As soon as this person finished speaking, Li Xiao couldn't help looking at him with an idiot look.

Not only Li Xiao, but also Lai Zhao, Qili Lai Zhou, Xian Rong, and Lian Qin.

Hyunei said: "The Echizen war has been corrupted, and we are unable to recover. We still want to keep Kaga, prevent Nobunaga from entering Kaga by the momentum, and shake the foundation of my Pure Land Shinshu in Hokuriku."

Lai Zhao said in a deep voice: "Yes, this is the end of the matter~www.wuxiamtl.com~ to recapture Echizen's matter, so I won't have to mention it again in the future."

After Xiajun Lai Jun was reprimanded, she sat down again when her face turned red.

Kaga is the location of Hokuriku Isosongmoto Mountain. If Kaga is destroyed, then Hongan Temple would be uprooted in Hokuriku.

"Tajima Shou-sama, I have already discussed it. I would like to ask your Excellency to lead an army in Kaga and join us in resisting the Oda family's invasion of Hokuriku!"

It was Qili Laizhou who spoke out.

Li Xiao narrowed his eyes after listening, but remained silent.

Xia Ma Laizhao said: "Tajima Shou-sama, if we are willing to lead the army to our Kaga, we are willing to grant you the position of monk majesty to the head of the Kaga Pure Land, as the official of the Shinshu Dabo of my Kaga Pure Land, equal to the poor monk and the Qili master. ."

Hearing what Shimon Raizhao said, Li Xiao nodded slightly, thinking that in the face of the oppression of the Oda family, Hokuriku Honganji had to hug my thigh right now.

The post of Kaga Honganjibo official is finally a sincere condition.
