The Takeda retainers were all thinking about the feasibility of this tactic, but Takeda Nobushige frowned and wanted to object.
The time has not come yet, why not wait?
At this moment, her sleeves tightened and she glanced behind her. The elder Zhu Jiaohu Ding shook his head slightly at her.
Zhu Jiaohu must be an elder of the Takeda family, and the family is a lineage of veterans who have served the Takeda family for generations. grab
She is Takeda Nobushige's teacher and the most supportive Hime warrior in the family.
This old woman has silver hair and is very old. But this time the Takeda family mobilized, she still resolutely followed the army to fight, which is respectable.
Seeing her stopping him, Takeda Nobushige patiently fell silent and waited until he asked the teacher later.
Takeda Harunobu felt relieved when he saw Takeda Nobuhige remained silent.
What she fears most is that her close and trusted sister will object.
Takeda Nobushige's status in the family is second only to hers, and she has a great influence on the retainers. Her attitude is very important.
It's not that Takeda Harunobu can't force the military to fight, but she hopes to create a united fighting spirit so that Takeda's military can fight in the most exciting state.
Uesugi Teruhu is not a good player. She must adjust all aspects to the best before she can defeat her opponent in one fell swoop.
The division of troops strategy modified by Takeda Harunobu is much more reliable than Yamamoto Kansuke's woodpecker strategy.
Yamamoto Kansuke wants the first surprise team to go around the back of the mountain for a surprise attack, which is almost impossible to succeed.
The Chikuma River is located in the south of Mount Tsumabushi. It forms an inverted C shape and goes around the mountain from the west to the north. The waterways are all under the supervision of the Uesugi Army.
When the raiding party goes south from Kaijin Castle, the flat river banks on both sides of the river will expose themselves. If they want to go around, they must go through the east mountainous area on the east bank of the Chikuma River.
Taking advantage of the darkness to walk around the mountains?
Most of the armies in this feudal era suffered from night blindness, and the mountain road at night was a torture to both morale and physical strength.
Even if they succeeded in evading the rear, it would be difficult to achieve the purpose of frightening the Uesugi army because of the lack of men and horses.
If the Uesugi army could not be frightened down from Tsumame Mountain and deployed at Hachimanhara on the north bank of the Chikuma River, the surprise attack would have completely failed and there would be a risk of being defeated one by one.
The Takeda retainers would never agree to such a random strategy, it was too risky. Takeda Harunobu's tactics are more feasible.
Takasaka Masanobu and Baba Nobuharu are from her banner family, they are battle-hardened and loyal.
They led 12,000 people out of the city and went south along the east bank of the Chikuma River, hiding in the mountains and forests on the east side of Wima and Girl Mountain.
There is no need to approach in ambush, and there is no need to detour through rugged mountain roads at night, so the morale and physical strength of the army can be preserved.
Even if exposed, the 12,000 men were equal to the number of Uesugi's troops and were enough to escape unscathed.
Takeda Harunobu personally led eight thousand troops to the west across the Chikuma River, intercepting Uesugi Teruatora's military station at Yawatahara, eliminating her logistics.
Uesugi Teruhora must go down the mountain and cross the river to start a joint battle with Takeda Harunobu. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the Takeda family to divide their forces, they defeated the Takeda family governor in one fell swoop.
No more than eight thousand people.
Too many, Uesugi Teruhu will not be fooled. Without it, Takeda Harunobu may not be able to hold on until Masanobu Kosaka and Nobuharu Baba come to help.
This tactic can be considered a division of troops, but it is much more reliable than Yamamoto Kansuke's woodpecker tactics.
It is even more risky for Uesugi Teruhora to go deep alone. She must want to take advantage of Takeda Harunobu's division of troops to defeat him.
As long as she goes down the mountain and crosses the river, giving Kosaka Masanobu and Baba Nobuharu a chance to follow closely and cross the river to attack, the Takeda family will have a great chance of winning.
Uesugi Terutora, who was blocked in Hachimangahara, either fled north in embarrassment before Kosaka Masanobu and Baba Nobuharu crossed the river, or was defeated by the Takeda army.
As for defeating the main army led by Takeda Harunobu in a short time, how is it possible?
The elite Yachisen Takeda are not made up of mud, and there will be no local samurai near Kawanaka Island to help Uesugi Teruhora.
The plains of Kawanakajima are prosperous, but this place is not big, and the stone height of the local samurai family is only tens of thousands of stones.
The Uesugi family and the Takeda family came to fight with all their strength. The troops mobilized by both sides exceeded 1.3 million koku, which was a shocking battle.
The local martial arts family was trembling with fear. No one dared to harass the logistics depot. They just waited for the winner to be known and kowtowed to the winner.
Without outside intervention, Takeda Harunobu's idea was indeed feasible, and the retainers had no objections. Baola Baola 战戅
Seeing that no one objected, Takeda Harunobu felt happy in his heart and solemn in his face.
“Since everyone agrees, let’s go back and prepare.
It's morning now. I'll cook and eat two meals in the afternoon and evening, and have enough food and sleep.
Takasaka Masanobu, Baba Nobuharu, you bring the banners and the Shinon tribe, and bring three meals of rations.
The army sets off after the sun sets, and must be completed before dawn. "
"Hi!"
"Jia Fei people, before dawn tomorrow, eat dry food first, and then follow me to fight!"
"Hi!"
The Takeda retainers kowtowed to the ground, then filed out and returned to camp to prepare.
Takeda Harunobu sent his close followers from the Hatamoto clan to lead the Shinano clan in an ambush, leaving the Kai clan to defend against a possible strong attack by Uesugi Teruhora.
At the critical moment, she still couldn't hide it, revealing which of the Wu family was close and which was far away in her heart, making the hearts of the Ji warriors of each family bright.
The difference between the Kai clan and the Shinano clan still exists. In the heat of war, the girls have no time to care. But in the future, accounts will have to be settled.
The meeting hall was emptied, but Kansuke Yamamoto was still lying on the ground. Takeda Harunobu asked.
"Yamamoto Hime, what else do you want to tell me?"
Yamamoto Kansuke pleaded.
"Please allow me to follow you, the governor, and fight to the death for you!"
Yamamoto Kansuke was appreciated and promoted by Takeda Harunobu. He belonged to the Hatamoto clan and was supposed to go with the army to ambush this time.
But she was grateful to Takeda Harunobu for covering up her mistakes and using decoy tactics to replace Yamamoto Kansuke's immature woodpecker tactics, and she was determined to serve justice.
Takeda Harunobu nodded. He is a good warrior and knows how to be grateful.
The biggest danger in this battle is that before the reinforcements can cross the river, Takeda Harunobu must stop Uesugi Teruhu with eight thousand men. The battle may be quite brutal.
Yamamoto Kansuke took the initiative to participate in it. This is loyalty and deserves encouragement.
Takeda Haru made a mental note that after this battle, she would continue to promote Kansuke Yamamoto, and she could not be allowed to be tortured to death by Takeda Nobushige.
"Okay, you follow my lead."
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Yamamoto Kansuke lowered his head and wiped away tears, feeling happy that he could meet such a wise master.
———
On the other side, Takeda Nobushige sat opposite Morokakusada in his room and asked.
"Teacher, why don't you let me talk?
The two sides had only been facing each other for a few days, and Uesugi's army was advancing alone. Uesugi Teruhu was clearly the more anxious party.
I don’t know why my sister actually listened to Yamamoto Kansuke’s lies and planned to take the initiative. It’s simply inexplicable!
When I get a chance in the future, I will definitely kill this bastard who invites bad things to happen! "
Takeda Nobushige gritted his teeth. She really couldn't understand what happened to her sister.
