Two days later, at noon.
Osaka Castle.
The samurai of the Toyotomi family guard the city. The faces of the warriors were solemn. Although Toyotomi Daikichi had ordered the daimyo of Harimo Kingdom to stand still.
It was concluded that Terashima Masanori could stop the Han army.
But the situation on the battlefield changes, just like the face of God, it changes at will. No one can guarantee what the outcome will be.
If Terashima Masanori cannot hold it, the Toyotomi family's army will have to attack.
The Han army is very strong.
Super strong.
The warriors were not afraid, but they had to be cautious.
In the tea room. Toyotomi Daikichi wore a very colorful haori with a folding fan on his waist, waiting to drink tea. Next to him is Longzao Temple Evergreen.
A famous tea ceremony expert and also a monk.
"Sir General, please use it." Ryuzoji Changqing respectfully handed the tea bowl to Toyotomi Daikichi.
Toyotomi Daikichi took the tea bowl and took a sip. He looked satisfied and said, "It's delicious." After that, he drank the tea in small sips, then took out the tissue in his arms and wiped the lips of the bowl.
"It's a great honor to be able to drink tea from Mr. Evergreen." Toyotomi Daikichi said.
"Your Majesty General, you are serious." Longzao Temple Chang Qing bent down and said modestly.
The Fuso Warring States Period was actually an era of grassroots rise. Many of the current great names were from small wealthy families or low-level warriors.
But the Toyotomi family is not included.
The Toyotomi family has a very long lineage and is a famous family among famous families. Toyotomi Daikichi was both a samurai and an old nobleman.
He has outstanding attainments in tea ceremony, Noh drama, calligraphy and painting. He also had close contacts with tea ceremony masters such as Ryuzoji Changqing.
He also loves Go, although he is not very good at it. But he admires Go masters very much, organizes competitions, and pays bonuses.
Protecting the inheritance of Go in Fuso.
In Fuso, the door is everything.
If you have a high family status, you are superior to others.
Toyotomi Daikichi was able to defeat all his competitors and ascend to the throne of the General of the Conquering Barbarians, which was not only his own outstanding ability, but also the glory of his ancestors.
Toyotomi Daikichi was chatting and laughing with Ryuzoji Changqing. Suddenly his face changed, and then he covered his chest with his right hand and slowly fell down.
"Sir General, what's wrong with you? Hurry. Call the doctor." Ryuzoji Changqing's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help Toyotomi, while shouting.
"No need. I'm just a little uncomfortable." Toyotomi Daikichi's face gradually improved, and he shook his head at Ryuzoji Changqing.
As we get older, we have more and more problems.
Occasionally, his heart rate would be abnormal and he was always on medication.
Ryuzoji Changqing felt relieved after hearing this and helped Toyotomi Daikichi sit down.
One wave has not subsided, and another wave has arisen.
Katakura Kageju rushed in from the outside and reported with a pale face: "Shogun-sama, something serious has happened. Koizumi Aojun and Terashima Masanori have both committed seppuku and been defeated."
"The Han army has captured Tajima Kingdom and divided its forces into three groups to attack Inaba, Mimasaku, and Bizen."
"What did you say?" Toyotomi Daiki, who had just recovered, suddenly felt his heart beat faster, and then the world began to spin, and stars appeared in his eyes.
"Sir General." Katakura Kageju and Ryuzouji Changqing's expressions changed greatly, and they hurriedly walked up, one on the back and the other on the back.
After a while, Toyotomi Daikichi exhaled a long breath and his complexion improved slightly.
"How could it be so fast?!!! Masanori Terashima, what is he doing?!" Toyotomi Daikichi calmed down and cursed.
Although it is unbelievable, now that the news is confirmed.
That's true.
He really couldn't figure it out. Known as the "Fox of Tajima" and "The Famous General of Tajima", he is almost the strongest among the successive governors of the Terashima family.
Terashima Masanori, why did he only hold on for two days?
No.
From the time when the Han army attacked the Kingdom of Danma, to when the troops came to the city. This journey will take more than a day. I'm afraid Terashima Masanori only lasted less than a day.
How can this be! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
During the Warring States Period, Terashima Masanori was really strong. If he is given five thousand troops to guard the city of his adoptive father, he can withstand an army of fifty thousand in a short period of time.
Katakura Keju sighed and was about to explain.
Toyotomi Daikichi waved his hand, stood up with a livid face, and said: "Forget it. The process is not important. What is important is the result."
"But the Ma Kingdom fell, and my layout was disrupted. Let the great names of Harima Kingdom attack Isshiki City immediately and kill Lu Liuliang. This will shake the Han army internally."
"I will personally lead the army and rush to the west."
"Inaba, Mimasaku, and Bizen Three Kingdoms hope it's not too late."
"yes."
Katakura Kageju was originally in a panic, but when he saw Toyotomi Daikichi being so calm and making a decision quickly, he felt at ease. He bent down sincerely, responded, turned around and went down to prepare.
Changqing of Ryuzouji Temple bowed to Toyotomi Daikichi very wisely, said goodbye and left.
same day. Toyotomi Daikichi personally took command and led the Toyotomi family's 30,000-strong army to attack Harima Country.
Starting from Osaka Castle, to reach the three countries of Inaba, Mimasaku and Bizen, you have to cross Harima Country.
needs time.
at the same time. Toyotomi Daikichi and the various daimyo in Harima besieged Isshiki Castle and planned to ambush the Han army, and they kept in constant contact.
All Iga ninjas were dispatched to gather information about the Han army.
Three days later.
The Toyotomi army marched westward on the main road in Harima. In the center of the team, a large number of warriors surrounded Toyotomi Daikichi.
Toyotomi Daikichi wears gorgeous armor and rides a famous horse, [Black Cloud], which can travel thousands of miles in a day.
Katakura Keju rode on his horse and walked to his right.
"Da da da!!!!" Suddenly, the sound of rapid horse hooves sounded in front. Toyotomi Daikichi looked up and saw a warrior galloping towards him on horseback.
Seeing something strange, Toyotomi Daijirma stopped and frowned.
"Sir General, there is news from the front. The twelve daimyo castles of Inaba, Mimasaku, and Bizen were all captured by the Han army. The Han army has completely occupied the Three Kingdoms. It is currently dividing its troops. One unit is led by General Zhang Cai. The three tribes, Kyogoku Dao and others, are attacking the western countries. One is led by Wu Nian himself, and the general Wang Gui is the deputy general. The Ouchi guards Wanhu are coming east. Chen Bing is at the border of Harimo Kingdom."
The warrior looked very ugly and reported.
"How could it be so fast?!!!" Toyotomi Daikichi couldn't hold back and shouted.
The warrior lowered his head deeply, unable to answer.
The daimyo of the Three Kingdoms either led troops to follow Toyotomi Daikichi, or sent powerful retainers to lead troops to follow Toyotomi Daikichi. The country is empty.
Moreover, the Han army was too strong, and conquering cities and territories was like chopping melons and vegetables.
There seemed to be countless flies circling in Toyotomi Daikichi's mind, squawking non-stop. He managed to calm down and said to Katakura Kageju: "Now that Wu Nian has divided his troops, the men and horses of Zhang Cai and Kyogoku Dao are definitely not as powerful as Wang Gui's Ouchi bodyguards."
"And now it took the Han army three days to conquer Inaba, Mimasaku, and Bizen. The castles of the daimyo in the western countries are also on defense."
"It's not that easy for Zhang Cai to conquer the western countries."
"The problem now is the troops who have lost their territories or their masters and are still fighting with us."
"King Shi. Do the statistics and call them over. I will provide compensation."
"Yes." Katakura Kageju felt sweat on his forehead. After answering, he rode off.
"Damn it. All my plans have been disrupted. What a move to surround Wei and save Zhao. What a brave and capable King of Han."
"However, I have also accepted your general Lu Liuliang. He only has a force of a thousand households to guard Yise City. There is no way he can withstand the attacks of the great names."
"My plan still succeeded."
"Wu Nian. You gave up on your general and let him die in Yise City."
"Your internal military morale will be shaken."
Toyotomi Daikichi thought to himself.
