Kaiboku Tsunauchi, Akao Kiyosuna, and Umori Kiyosada, the three famous generals Kaiboku Akaame gathered in the Shiyue battlefield.
However, now that the three of them belong to the two military camps, a fight is inevitable.
Kyogoku Takamasa's team quickly arrived near the battlefield, but they did not immediately join the battlefield, but stood aside to observe the situation on the battlefield.
"Lord, judging from the current battle situation, the enemy and we are evenly matched. Will we continue to send troops to support in order to quickly control the situation?" Yamato Nobu, standing next to Kyogoku Takamasa, said.
Kyogoku Takamasa shook his head: "Asai Ryomasa hasn't appeared yet, so don't act rashly."
"I always feel that there is something abnormal about the Asai family's behavior, but I can't say what's wrong."
"You see, the Asai family has set up a formation at Shiyue, as if they are going to fight a decisive battle with the family. However, in the two days of battle, the Asai family's troops only showed up with a few hundred people, and Asai Ryomasa's troops were delayed. Didn't show up, I'm worried that there is a conspiracy of Asai Ryomasa."
After Kyogoku Takamasa finished speaking, Yamasa Nobu and others next to him looked at each other, "Conspiracy?"
"Gensuke, send a few more detectives to explore the surroundings of the battlefield and see if they can find anything!"
"Ha!" Mitsui Takatora nodded.
Focus on the battlefield.
Akao Kiyosuna and Kaiboku Tsunayika have already rushed into the enemy formation and started fighting with Amemori Kiyosada.
Mitsukane Numata, who had been beaten unable to fight back before, gradually regained his footing and began to cooperate with Tsunayika Kaiboku and others in launching an assault.
Although there were samurai at home to help, as fierce men such as Tsunayami Kaiboku joined the battlefield, Amemori Kiyosada's offensive was gradually blocked.
"At Shimokai Kitzen'emon, the enemy general dares to fight me!"
Haibeizuna's eyes were fixed on Yumori Qingzhen, who was fighting with a sword not far away, and he shouted at the top of his voice.
Hearing Kaiboku Tsunayika's words, Amemori Kiyosada in the crowd turned his head sharply, looked into Kaiboku Tsunayika's eyes, and then showed a smile and said: "Kaihoku Zenemon? That Kusengo local? The one who surrendered before the battle? coward?"
Haibei Tsuna was furious when he heard this.
During the Battle of Anegawa, Asai Ryomasa was unexpectedly attacked by Kyogoku Takamasa. He and Katagiri Naoshige stayed behind, but were defeated by Kyogoku Takamasa. Finally, he kept his bet and joined the Kyogoku family.
Although it was forced, it was like a family name.
Today, Tsunayika Kaiboku couldn't bear it anymore after being told so sad by a young boy who was just starting out.
"Shut up! You little kid!"
Haibeizuna shouted loudly, raised his spear and rushed towards Yumori Qingzhen.
Two warriors of the Yusen family who protected the master eagerly came forward to greet him.
Tsunachika Kaiboku was not frightened at all, he raised his spear and fired at the two warriors. One of the samurai directly chose to fight head-on. However, when the spear in his hand came into contact with Tsunayika Kaiboku's spear, the samurai began to regret it.
"Hiss... Such great strength!"
Feeling the pain coming from the tiger's mouth, the samurai immediately put aside his contempt and looked at Tsunayika Uboku as if he were facing a formidable enemy.
The other samurai apparently didn't know how powerful Tsunayika Uboku was, so he rushed forward.
Tsunama Uiboku stood still, staring closely at the samurai who was rushing towards him, but in his heart he was calculating the distance between the two.
Suddenly, Haibeizuna moved.
The spear in his hand was thrust forward suddenly, and the warrior who had been running so fast just stopped instantly.
A large amount of sweat ran down the warrior's forehead, and a trace of blood spilled out of the corner of his mouth. The samurai's eyes widened in disbelief, and then he looked down at the spear that had penetrated his chest. He couldn't believe it to his death that he actually received the lunch box like this.
"The enemy general has been captured by Kaiboku Zenemon!"
Tsunachika Uboku used all his strength to raise his head to the sky and roar, venting all the anger in his heart.
Tsunachika Uboku's roar echoed throughout the battlefield, and the Kyogoku family's Ashigaru suddenly let out a thundering roar.
oh!
Attacking the enemy in front of the battle line is the best way to boost morale.
Pulling out the spear from the samurai's body, Kaiboku Tsuna turned around without changing his expression and turned his attention to the other samurai.
The latter looked nervous at this time, and he knew that the person in front of him was definitely no match for him.
Umori Kiyosada couldn't sit still at this time. She didn't expect Uboku Tsunayika to be so powerful. Obviously, even if she plays in person, she may not be Uboku Tsuna's opponent. This casts a shadow on Umori Kiyosada's heart. .
What matters in fighting is momentum!
"My lord, Zenemon-den has captured an enemy samurai!"
Beside Kyogoku Takamasa, Yamato Nobu shouted eagerly.
Kyogoku Takamasa also showed a satisfied look at this time, looked around himself, and secretly thought in his heart, "Uboku Tsunauchi, Akao Kiyosuna, Yamanobu, Mitsui Toraka, Nomura Mototaka, Numata Mitsukane, Cai Liu. No matter what, I have to gather a seven-gun!"
Historically, after the death of Oda Nobunaga, in order to compete for power in the family, Hideyoshi Shibata and Katsuie Shibata held a battle at Shidake. In this battle, seven people "stand out", and the world calls it the "Seven Guns of Shibata" .
The place where the battle broke out today happens to be in Jianyue. If we can make a seven-gun, it will complement each other.
"Lord!"
"Lord! It's not good!"
Just when Kyogoku Takamasa was thinking a lot, a panicked shout suddenly came from behind him.
Kyogoku Takamasa looked back and saw Matsunaga Nagayori.
"Jinsuke, aren't you escorting the soldiers' rations?"
Matsunaga Nagayori was the Xiaohetuo leader for this battle, and his main task was to transport the rations and ordnance needed for the battle.
Generally speaking, there is no need to prepare additional food for a joint battle. Generally, the required rations are made into rice balls before going out into battle, and the ashigaru carry them with them. The battle will last for several days, so prepare several days of rations.
However, if the joint battle fails and the two sides fall into a stalemate, the prepared rations will naturally not be enough, and they will need to be transported from the rear. Coupled with the loss of bows, arrows, weapons, etc., the importance of the Xiaohe Tuo Team is self-evident.
Seeing Matsunaga Nagayori running over so eagerly, Kyogoku Takamasa suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
"My lord, my Xiao He Tuo team was suddenly attacked by a force of the Asai family at the foot of Jiyue Mountain. Due to no preparation in advance, the peasants and soldiers were completely defeated by the enemy's surprise attack."
"Although I fought hard, I can't stand alone. I can only break out of the siege and ask for help from the lord!"
"What!" Kyogoku Takamasa looked shocked, "Why did the Asai family's troops appear at the foot of Mount Kiyake?"
"Could it be Asai Ryomasa's team?"
Thinking of Asai Ryomasa who had not yet appeared, Kyogoku Takamasa suddenly spoke.
Matsunaga Nagayori shook his head, "It's not Asai Ryomasa's team. Judging from the flag seal, it should be the troops of the people of Ika County!"
"The people of Yixiang County?"
Kyogoku Takamasa thought about it carefully and suddenly sighed, "After all, I was still negligent."
"Lord, how did these soldiers of the country reach the foot of Mount Jiyue silently?" Shan Chaoxin asked in confusion.
The Kyogoku family's troops have been fighting all the way from the foot of Mt. Kanigake. Even if the Asai family's troops want to sneak attack on the Kyogoku family's rear, they shouldn't be unaware of it.
"This must be a force prepared by Asai Ryomasa in advance. If my prediction is correct, it should have come over Xingshi Mountain from Yuwu Township!"
"Naizangsuke, I will give you a team of people. You can rush to rescue Xiaohe's team as soon as you can! If the army rations are lost, you two don't have to come back!"
"Don't worry, my lord, if there is any loss of food for the soldiers, I'll raise my head and see you!" After Yamachaoxin finished speaking, he took Matsunaga Nagayori and ran towards the foot of the mountain.
After the two left, Kyogoku Takamasa turned his attention to the rear of the battlefield. He suddenly had a premonition that Asai Ryomasa had appeared.
