Akechi Mitsuhide listened and read the letter sent by the envoy. The Asai family sent some information and free money today.
Although he was dismissed as a problem, there was no problem with etiquette and he was still respectful.
There was a lot of information to be shared, and it was all done in a friendly manner. After all, Spoelstra's borrowing of troops was politically correct this time, and no one could find fault.
"My lord, the identity of the enemy on the opposite side has been confirmed. What a fate."
"Oh? How do you say it?"
"It's the military force led by Mekarada Tsunayoshi."
Yoshigami looked up into the distance, which was the direction of the enemy. Maeda Yoshitsugi and Ohtani Yoshitsugi's eyes flickered after hearing this.
"It's true...it's not like enemies never get together."
Yiyin clenched his fists and looked at the eager eyes of his subordinates.
"Has the time for the battle been determined?"
"Lord Asai Nagamasa decided to send troops to Noraota early the day after tomorrow to start a war with Rokkaku Yoshihide."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded, Yoshiyin waved his hand and said.
"Master Todo, the military must be in place tonight and be repaired for the whole day. There will be a pre-battle review tomorrow and we will see how to beat her Katada Tsunayoshi!"
Mekada Tsunayoshi sneezed twice, she was feeling depressed these days.
After the ambush failed, life became difficult. The master's family had too much to take care of themselves, so she was naturally made things difficult by the important officials in the family.
But since we can’t explain it, should we put the responsibility on the owner’s family? Is there any way to survive? I can only pretend to be deaf and mute and cope with it reluctantly.
Later, as the information gradually became more abundant, I realized that I had done something stupid.
At that time, there were no reinforcements from the shogunate in the valley, and the shogunate did not know about the ambush. It was entirely Shiba Yiyin who led a few Ji warriors and wiped out the evil party he had left behind.
If we reinforce quickly, we might not have so much trouble.
Rokkaku Yoshixian also blamed her for being timid and evading evacuation at critical moments. This battle didn't look good on her, and she was sent to the back of this barren mountain.
The Rokkaku family's military strength against the Asai family is two to one, and the Rokkaku family has a great chance of winning.
Kicking him away means not giving him a chance to do justice, and he clearly tells everyone that the Mekada family has fallen out of favor.
Mekada Tsunayoshi had nothing to do about this. Her family was dependent on the Rokkaku family. Like rattan and trees, without the trees to climb on, the rattan cannot move upward.
These days, besides cursing Spoelstra, it's all about facing reality. Boringly waiting for the end of the war, thinking about how to please Rokkaku Yoshiken and save the family's property after the war.
In the early morning of the next day, as soon as Yoshigan had breakfast, Todo Toradaka came with his daughter to report.
After reporting the current military situation, Yiyin gasped in shock.
"There are one hundred and thirteen Hime warriors and two hundred and eleven Ashigaru warriors. Todo-sama, you are so willing."
The number of ashigaru of the Todo clan was still within the mobilization range of Manshi territory, but the number of the Hime warriors really scared Yoshigami.
Didn't they pull out all the Ji warriors from Yuanfu to Baitou in the Twelve Villages? If we lose this battle, the Tengtang people will not be in decline, but will be exterminated.
"I am willing to work hard for the general, even if I die, I will have no regrets!"
Tora Tora is loyal to the general at every turn. There is no other way, the imperial flag represents the general's expedition, and only then can he have the right to ennoble the imperial family members. Tora Torako worked so hard just for this ladder to climb up.
Yoshihiro didn't understand, but Akechi Mitsuhide understood very well and spoke up.
"May I ask Lord Todo, how many horses, iron cannons, and bows and arrows are there in the army?"
"Replying to Akechi-sama, we have seven war horses, twenty-three rhinos, and six iron cannons. We are not good at bows and arrows, and we have no Yukihime samurai. Ashigaru has thirty bamboo bows."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded, but Yoshiyin shook his head.
This group of Chinese people are so capable of saving money. There are many Ji warriors because their status is low and they have no place to serve.
Even the lowest-ranking warrior Ji needs thirty years of salary to serve as an official. The warriors themselves can't arrange it, so how can they get the turn of Chinese people to serve as servants.
On a normal day, Chinese people would still have to consider the continuity of their families, and would never pull out all the women in the family for the sake of war.
But this time, Toudo Toraka was really desperate, and the Hime Samurai came with more than half of Ashigaru's reserve team.
In addition, war horses, iron cannons, bows and arrows are all precious weapons. I don’t know how long I have saved up on weekdays, but this time I pulled it all out.
Maybe the Chinese people outside are still wiping away their tears, but aren't the leaders prepared to live through the days to come?
No matter what, the momentum of all his wealth shocked Yiyin. Isn’t it just a false name? Why don’t I give it to you?
"Master Todo, well done, this battle will be your first achievement."
Yoshigami nodded solemnly towards Todo Tougao. If others take you seriously, you can't make other people's hearts cold. Only by comparing one's mind with one's own can we go a long way.
"Now that we have all the people and horses, let's talk about what the next regulations will be."
Yiyin is self-aware and kills everyone on the battlefield with cheats. At other times, it is better to listen to the advice than these Ji warriors who have been fighting for dozens of generations.
Maeda Yoshitake was the first to speak.
"Since we have strong soldiers and horses, it's better to invite Katada Tsunayoshi to kill her.
Since she was sent to guard the side road, her army would not be large, and she did not know that our soldiers and horses were so strong that they could defeat us in a single battle. "
Otani Yoshitsugi nodded in agreement. Todo Toraoka and his daughter only wanted to make contributions, so they naturally agreed with both hands on the matter of war.
Akechi Mitsuhide glanced at the girls who were in high spirits and said.
"Is this the only ambition everyone has? Is it enough to kill Mekada Tsunayoshi, who is like a lost dog?"
"There is no need to provoke the general if you have something to say."
Yiyin interrupted her deception.
Black-bellied women, here are all firecrackers, and will spontaneously combust if they don't light up. You still want to add fuel to the fire and show contempt.
"Your Majesty is right, we naturally want to achieve great achievements and do great things. Knowing that you are so bad that you are bleeding, so if you have a way, just tell us and we will listen to you."
Benefit said carelessly, making Mitsuhide Akechi grin at her. Yiyin's heart suddenly trembled, this interest was really seeking death, how could he live a good life if he offended such a shady person.
Thinking about it, these brainless ones need to be dealt with. Let them play by themselves after the war.
At this time, he remained silent and continued to watch.
"Lord Asai Nagamasa has decided to join forces with the Rokkaku family to fight in Norada tomorrow morning.
Neither side can afford to lose this battle. The battle will be tense and there will be no victory or defeat for a while.
If at that time, a team of people came out from behind the Liujiao family, what kind of credit would this be? "
The girls' eyes lit up after hearing this. But they are all people who were killed in the battle formation, so they are not so easy to fool. Otani Yoshitsugi asked.
"This is difficult. After all, Mekada Tsunayoshi has a complete army, and it will take a lot of time to defeat her.
We are far away from the battlefield behind the mountains, so how can we quickly reach the rear of the Hexagonal Army after the war.
Most importantly, why did Mekada Tsunayoshi go to war? There is no need for her to go into battle, her task is just to guard the valley road behind the mountain. "
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded and said.
"No matter what, the first thing we have to do is to defeat Mokada, otherwise everything else is just delusion.
It's very simple to ask Mekada Tsunayoshi to fight, but it's a hassle for the boss. "
"I?"
Yiyin blinked, not understanding.
"I would like to ask the Lord to write a letter and be bold enough to borrow something."
"You can write a letter. What do you want to borrow?"
"The Lord's loincloth."
Yiyin was suffocated and looked at Akechi Mitsuhide with a guilty conscience.
Crotch cloth is the exclusive underwear for men in this world, but he feels uncomfortable and never wears it. Like the Hime Warriors in this world, he likes a vacuum.
