Oda Nobunaga is right, Xiaobai is indeed very white.
Xiaobai is a very tall white horse with a very good breed. According to Oda Nobunaga, this horse is a descendant of a thoroughbred horse that was transported from the West a long time ago. Regardless of whether Oda Nobunaga's statement is true or not, At least the white horse is very white and runs very fast.
Fang Bie and Yan Yu were the first team to go to Tongzhajian to investigate and occupy the point.
This sounds a little bit sudden.
After all, I had just arrived at Furuno Castle, and in the blink of an eye, I was sent by Oda Nobunaga to participate in the Battle of Okehama, and he was also the legendary Shoin Pioneer Officer. Thinking about this, it felt a little magical for a moment.
Regarding Oda Nobunaga, he can really be regarded as a person who does not doubt people but does not trust others.
The horse's hooves stepped on the dew-laden grass. Yan Yu looked at Fang Bi, who was also on the horse: "I always feel like you have known Oda Nobunaga before, but judging from the daimyo's attitude towards you, you probably haven't met him before. Only when we meet face to face."
"It's true that we haven't met before." The horse was walking, but that didn't stop Fang from speaking.
The three hundred cavalrymen of Oda Nobunaga are basically Oda's heart and soul. However, as firearms gradually become more and more popular, the impact value of the cavalry has been greatly reduced. However, even if the impact value has decreased, its mobility and logistics capabilities are still the same. It is beyond the reach of infantry.
Therefore, in this battle between Tongzhajian, the cavalry still went first, and the infantry followed.
"But you trust him a little too much." Yan Yu said.
"Then may I ask if he has betrayed my trust in him?" Fang Bie looked at Yan Yu and said with a smile.
Yan Yu nodded: "I didn't live up to it."
"Even though Owari is still so weak now, he still makes me believe that if Japan can be unified under one person again, then that person is most likely to be him."
Fang Bie smiled and did not answer this sentence.
Yan Yu did not lie before. The reason why they are still in Japan now is because they have reached a deal with the current emperor. Selecting someone who can unify Japan and assist him in accomplishing this goal is of course an important part of this deal. One of the terms, and all the actions of Yan Yu and He Ping in Japan are currently working towards this goal.
When Fang Bie lost his memory before, this goal actually lacked a key link. But as Fang Bie recovered his own memory, everything began to become logical.
In fact, Oda Nobunaga was observing Fangbie, but Fangbie wasn't observing this man known as the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven.
Of course, everything has completely changed in this world line. Although Ozama is still there, whether there is Honnoji Temple or not is another matter. If Oda Nobunaga can survive Honnoji Temple, or the three heroes of the Japanese Warring States Period, The other two heroes have almost no chance to play.
"So you are also looking forward to this battle?" Fang Bie opened his mouth and changed the topic.
Four thousand against forty thousand, to win in battle, it also requires a complete victory, not a narrow victory, and a surprise attack, not a defense of the city.
Such a battle should be a battle full of expectations for everyone.
Of course, failure seems to be a natural thing.
"Of course, although it seems that you can only see this victory if you see a miracle." Yan Yu said lightly: "But there is no doubt that that man seems to be someone who can create miracles."
"Actually, to be honest, we don't understand the art of war or anything like that. It seems that as long as we shout 666 after the fight starts, it's enough." The young man said with a smile: "Just like Oda Nobunaga said, today's Kawakawa When Yi Yuan is defeated, if he can escape safely, then I will be responsible for taking off his head."
"This should be something I'm good at." The boy then added.
"How much do you know about Japan's so-called sword masters?" Yan Yu asked.
"Honestly, I don't know much about it. I didn't even have time to ask whether the sword master was Sasaki Kojiro or Miyamoto Musashi. But one thing is certain, that is, Yan Jiu's swordsmanship is a well-deserved inheritance of the sword master." Fang Don't look at Yan Yu and replied.
"Yan Jiu's sword skills are indeed powerful enough. Although he is said to be from the Uesugi family, he is now the emperor's personal guard. This emperor does not live in seclusion and live alone as many people thought, but has always been He is trying to revive the glory of the emperor's bloodline in Japan." Yan Yu said calmly: "So we must also be wary of him. Sometimes we have to do the business of seeking skin from the tiger, but when we do it, we must leave enough for ourselves. road."
"I'm really happy to hear you say such things, boss. I have to say that you seem to have grown up a lot," Fang Bie said with a smile.
Compared with the reclusive days when she was the queen bee, Yan Yu now indeed has more confidence and stability, which is not something that can be cultivated by living behind the scenes.
"Human beings need to grow. If I remember correctly, this should be what you said?" Yan Yu said with a smile: "Also, let's get back to the topic."
"Perhaps Japan's Sword Master is not as powerful as rumored, but it is still best not to underestimate him."
"I have never underestimated them." Fang Bie said calmly and seriously: "But all the unknowns can only be clear after the fight. Moreover, it also depends on how much the guy who protects Imagawa Yoshimoto has the will to fight."
"For fighting, the will to fight is also a very important part."
Yan Yu nodded, then looked at Fang Bie: "It seems that you haven't asked about things in China for a long time."
Fang Bie snorted lightly.
He hasn't asked for a long time.
When I lost my memory before, I even forgot who I was, so I definitely wouldn't ask about it. It only took a month to recover my memory, but even if I recovered my memory, the young man never asked about things there again.
Although things there should be a bit more boring compared to not having other parties involved.
"No homing pigeon can fly that far across the sea." Fang Bie said calmly, which was also an answer.
"It can be transferred between Jeju Island and Korea." Yan Yu said lightly: "After the situation stabilized, I sent carrier pigeons to China and got a response."
"Huh." Fang Bie said softly.
I didn't expect to hear news from China in Japan, which is really surprising.
"What's the specifics?" Fang Bie asked.
"Your Xue Ling has established a firm foothold in Bianliang, and the imperial court has secretly provided some assistance. Now that the hive has indeed split, many people need Xue Ling to stand up against the already invincible Qin." Yan Yu said: "Even if you cut off one of Qin's arms, the one-armed Qin seems to be more powerful than before."
"He publicly challenged Ding Kuyu, but Ding Kuyu chose to avoid the fight. This is a clearer signal."
Fang Bie hummed again, then looked at Yan Yu: "What do you mean by my Xue Ling? Why do you still have a sour taste when you mention that girl now?"
"After all, she is the girl who replaced me." Yan Yu said with a smile: "And I am very curious, how did you convince her to rebel against Qin in this situation."
"Obviously she is the puppet supported by Qin."
"If there is really a choice, who would be willing to be someone else's puppet?" Fang Bie asked, "And I just tried to give her a new choice."
“If the choice unexpectedly works out for everyone, then everyone will tacitly allow the change to happen.”
"So she was able to stand up in the middle."
"Yes, in the middle." Yan Yu nodded: "Your so-called Xiaohun Inn's team also gave her a lot of help. If you can return to China one day in the future, have you ever thought about it? Open an inn?"
"What?" Fang Bie turned around and looked at Yan Yu: "Do you really want to be my boss?"
Yan Yu looked at Fang Bing's face, and the girl's face under the veil showed a slight constriction: "Why, are you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid, but there can only be one boss lady. When you become the boss and Sister Ping becomes the boss lady, where should you go to explain this matter?" The young man made a subtle joke.
Yan Yu sighed: "Yes, it is indeed a very serious matter, but no matter how you put it, these are too far away things."
"At least for now, we should still watch the progress and outcome of this war and then make our choices."
"Honestly." Yan Yu looked ahead and looked at Fang Bie ahead: "I still hope that this man, Oda Nobunaga, can complete this mission."
"I hope it's useless, you still have to look at your own strength." Fang Bie said with a smile.
"Right." He looked ahead.
"Obazama is here."
Okehazama has indeed arrived.
It is early summer now, with lush vegetation, and Tongzhajian is a long canyon in a continuous mountainous area. It seems to be somewhat similar to the legendary Ziwu Valley.
Of course, Tongzhajian is not comparable to Ziwu Valley in terms of length, but in terms of the dangerous terrain, Tongzhajian may be even better.
The Ziwu Valley actually means that the road is rugged and narrow, and supplies cannot be supplied. You can only rely on carrying it by yourself through the rolling valley, and Tongzhajian is a place that lives up to its name.
The entire mountain canyon is like a long wooden barrel, or a pocket.
If the Oda army can really launch an attack when Imagawa Yoshimoto enters Okezama, hitting him halfway across the border, and when the head and tail cannot see each other, it will be almost the time for Imagawa Yoshimoto's death.
Because at this time, even people who are not familiar with military affairs will know that Imagawa Yoshimoto is probably defeated, because at this time, when the troops cannot be deployed and are extremely tired, the large number of troops has become a burden.
As the saying goes, where there is a will, things come true. Three thousand Yue Jia can swallow Wu.
"Today I saw that Tong Zhajian is indeed Tong Zhajian." Yan Yu looked at the small valley exit in the distance.
"It seems we should dismount."
Riding a horse is just for the purpose of traveling, to reach the position faster and to lurk.
After all, the terrain of Okehazama is too narrow to be used, but could it be said that this terrain element is only effective for Imagawa Yoshimoto and is immune to Oda Nobunaga?
There is no such truth in this world.
Therefore, the existence of cavalry is just to rush on the road.
"It seems that Yoshimoto Imagawa hasn't really arrived yet." Fang Bie briefly looked at the mountains and forests in the distance: "But although Oda Nobunaga kept saying that Yoshimoto Imagawa is a fool, and humiliating Jin has almost become his daily routine, after all, the other party He is not the general who led the troops in battle on the first day. The reconnaissance scout who can defeat Imagawa Yoshimoto seems to be the focus of our actions now."
"This is our job." At this time, a voice suddenly sounded next to Fang Bing.
Fang Bei looked back and saw a short warrior who had just dismounted, and it was him who spoke just now.
"You are..." Fang Bie thought for a moment about how to call the man in front of him, and finally found the answer: "Kinoshita Tokichiro?"
"That's right." Kinoshita Tokichiro smiled and nodded: "Actually, you can also call me monkey like my lord. After all, it makes me feel closer."
With that said, Kinoshita Tokichiro continued: "My lord has already given instructions. Until the outcome of the battle is clear, the two guests do not need to participate in any battle. All the work will be completed by us. You only need to watch from the sidelines."
Kinoshita Tokichiro spoke neither humble nor arrogantly, and with strong confidence.
"So you're not afraid of defeat?" Yan Yu asked, "There are tens of thousands of troops coming soon."
"What's the use of being afraid? Besides, this body has been dedicated to Lord Oda. Being able to fight and die in this battle is also the honor of being a samurai." Kinoshita Tokichiro said: "Anyway, we will go to the top of the mountain next After setting up camp and lurking down, the two of you can go sightseeing in the surrounding areas, or simply rest in the camp. It will take some time for the Imagination Army to reach Tongzhajian, and most of the Lord's troops are still on the way. Now it's like The night before the storm is calm but also unsettling.”
This talkative samurai aroused Yan Yu's interest, but before she could speak, Fang Bu said first: "Thank you Oda-sama for taking care of me. Let's take a look around now. If you meet Imagawa Yoshi We just killed Yuan’s scouts, so this doesn’t count as an early move, what do you think, Your Excellency?”
Fang Bing's words had reached this point, and Kinoshita Tokichiro had no way to object.
Moreover, although he had not seen Fang Bi's actions with his own eyes, he knew clearly that he personally killed many ninjas in Koga and brought Oda City back to Furuno Castle.
So he couldn't help but thank him, then saluted and left. He led his troops to properly place and take care of the horses, and then set up camp on the mountain to prepare for Oda Nobunaga's march and the arrival of Imagawa Yoshimoto.
Seizing the opportunity at this time is equivalent to welcoming victory.
"Oda Nobunaga seems to be very good at discovering talents." Yan Yu couldn't help but said after he and Fang Bie walked away.
"This is probably the most important skill as a master." Fang Bie smiled: "But this has nothing to do with us. Let's take a look here now. There is nothing to do anyway."
