Chapter 42 Static braking

Sanada Yutaka, who was originally ambitious, was a little decadent, and Soki Masatomo was also surprised.

According to the original idea, the main purpose of this ambush was to weaken the soldiers in Toishi Castle, so that they could apply to Takeda Harunobu to fight.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and there is a cautious Ueda Nobukata in Toishi Castle, which makes their plans fall through.

Sanada Yutaka was puzzled: "This Ueda Nobukata is not a reckless man?" He actually has a strategy and understands military law? ”

Haruhara's Sozaemon nodded and said, "Hey, my lord, my subordinates were there at the time, and before going out, Ueda Nobukata almost told us all about our plans.

If it weren't for some small details, otherwise, the subordinates would have thought that that night, there was a detailed eavesdrop on all the plans. ”

Sanada Yutaka sighed and said, "With such a wise general in Toishi Castle, it is difficult to capture even if I have thousands of troops and horses in my hands, so I can only think of other ways." ”

Soki Masatomo did not persuade, but said: "The lord has mobilized his troops and will soon attack the Ogasawara family, and when the time comes, Murakami Yoshikiyo will definitely not watch the family take the Ogasawara family."

Fortunately, wait patiently, we will have a chance at that time. ”

What else can Yutaka Sanada do? He had to drink to kill his sorrows.

Ueda Nobumasa comforted Yazaki Heizou and pulled him into his own line, not yet aware of his cautious movements that had destroyed the fuse of Toishi's collapse.

Takeda Harunobu launched the Toishi Castle Raider, and it was precisely because Sanada Yutaka weakened the number of soldiers in Toishi Castle that Takeda Harunobu was moved and decided to attack Toishi Castle.

Now that there is nothing going on in Toishi Castle, Sanada Yutaka naturally did not go to tell Takeda Harunobu that the time had come to attack Toishi Castle.

After Yoshikiyo Murakami left Toishi Castle, Toishi Castle returned to its usual appearance.

Ueda Nobukata did not go to manage Ishijo, mainly to Azuma Kiyotsuna and Yazawa Soshige.

He was mainly training his men how to use the iron cannon.

Since the previous year, he contributed the iron cannon to Murakami Yoshikiyo, and so far, twelve iron cannons have been built, which of course is the number given to Murakami Yoshikiyo.

Privately, he hid twelve iron cannons, saved them, and sold them to Tennoji Tatsuki in exchange for 1,200 copper coins.

Now he still has more than 1,000 copper coins in his hands, and he can't do anything big. He now only hopes that the battle of Hushi City will turn over.

Ueda Nobukata's training of iron cannon ashigaru is mainly the process of reloading, as for shooting, it is very rare, lead bullet is very expensive, and the life of the gun tube is not long, but it cannot withstand actual combat training.

Iwashita Naka and Yazaki Heizou on the side are training very seriously, and none of those ashigaru people dare to be lazy, but it is Ueda Nobukata who is wandering into the world.

Iwasita Naka just stopped to rest and said to Yazaki Heizou: "Heizo Hira, you see, Ueda is probably thinking about how to conquer Matsuo Castle." ”

Yazaki Heizou wondered, "How did Ichikiyoki see it?" ”

Iwashita Kiyoshi was overjoyed, and finally someone heard him display his talent, and he said with a flying eyebrow: "When Ueda Kiyoshi is talking about iron cannons, he always says that iron cannons are used to attack and defend cities, especially for wooden defenses, what does this mean?" ”

Yazaki Heizou frowned, thought about it, shook his head and said, "What did you not think of?" ”

Iwashita Kiyoshi laughed and said, "Haha, iron cannons can be used to siege the city, and it is easy to break the wooden defenses, while most of Matsuo Castle is a wooden structure!" Heizozuki, got it! ”

Yazaki Heizou clenched his fists, his eyes instantly turned red, and his eyes became hot when he looked at Ueda Nobukata, and said, "I understand Ueda's intentions!" Unexpectedly, Ueda has already thought of this, so he must practice diligently, and he must not let Ueda fail in the future! ”

Iwashita Kiyoshi looked at the emotional Yazaki Heizou and said excitedly: "Since Heizo has said so, how can you be lazy in the next!" Let's work together! ”

The two of them made up their own brains, then cheered themselves up, and finally worked harder.

Nobukata Ueda, who was in a daze, didn't notice at all.

In the evening, Iwashita found Ueda Nobukata, and he said, "Nobukata, there has been an anomaly in the Takeda family recently, and it seems that the Ogasawara guardian family is eyeing it.

The lord has already sent someone to the Ogasawara family to negotiate, and when the time comes, the center of gravity of the family's forces will definitely be on the side of the higher level of the county, as well as Takai County.

As for the defense of Toishi Castle, it is very empty, and it will mainly depend on us when the time comes, so, Nobukata, how sure are you about holding Toishi Castle. ”

Ueda Nobukata was not shocked after hearing this, but smiled and said, "Uncle Iwashita can rest assured, Toishi Castle will definitely be able to hold it, and the Takeda family will not be able to take it." ”

Iwashita said worriedly: "However, that Sanada Yutaka in Matsuo City is not easy to deal with, you see that even the lord has suffered at his hands." ”

Ueda Nobukata soothed: "It's nothing, his plan has been seen through by the bottom, but Nasuda doesn't believe it."

Alas, those old retainers and important ministers in the family are very hostile to the subordinates, and they act for the sake of the Murakami family, is their strength so small? ”

Yan Xiazhong's expression was very flustered, and he hurriedly said: "Xinfang Shenyan, you have already made the three big guys unhappy, don't go to the road of your own family." ”

Ueda Nobukata nodded and said with a smile: "This is also to say it in front of my uncle, and the others are silent." ”

Iwasita Naka was not very relieved, every time he asked, Ueda Nobukata replied like this, and did not say anything specifically.

If it had been before, Ueda Nobukata would have said the same thing to him, but unfortunately, he could only go back tonight with worries.

As for Iwasita Kiyoshita, he couldn't be persuaded at all, he could only take one step at a time.

Ueda Nobukata could see that Iwasita Naka didn't trust him, but he couldn't help it, he remembered such a thing as Toishi's collapse.

On the other side is Sanada Yutaka, and the more he does, the more he makes mistakes, so the best thing to do is to do nothing and see what Sanada Yutaka does on the other side.

At this time, Motoren suddenly appeared outside Ueda Nobukata's house.

Ueda Nobukata heard the voice, looked up, and asked, "Motoren, what's the matter?" ”

Yuan Lian replied: "My lord, the villain found that there was a suspicious person passing through Toishi Castle and heading to Kiyono Castle, and that person may be a fine work of Matsuo Castle." ”

Ueda Nobukata suddenly came to his senses, he knew that Sanada Yukitaka was a master who was good at adjusting, if this fine work came out of Matsuo Castle, then Sanada Yukitaka wanted to sleep back in Kiyono Kiyohide!

Ueda Nobukata's heart is a little entangled, Kiyono Kiyohide is one of the three bosses, he wants to take revenge on the Kiyono family, but his own strength is not enough to hibernat.

If Sanada Yutaka returns to Kiyohide Kiyono successfully, and then he Ueda Nobukata backhanded a report, it will be like killing two birds with one stone.
