At this moment, in Oi no Mori on the border of Kofu, the Takeda Army is temporarily stationed here.

For Takeda Harunobu's arrangement, Oyamada Nobuyu didn't understand this very much, and asked directly at the military meeting: "My lord, why did our army stop here?" ”

Takeda Harunobu smiled, looked at Kansuke Yamamoto, and asked, "Kansuke, tell me what you think." ”

Nobuyi Oyamada muttered, "Has the military advisor been reused again?" Before, the lord still had opinions about the military advisor. ”

Kansuke Yamamoto stood up and said, "Hah." Ladies and gentlemen, the main reason why our army stopped here was to make Ogasawara even more contemptuous of our army. ”

Nobuyi Oyamada frowned and said, "So what? If this is the case, the Suwa people will definitely take refuge in Ogasawara. ”

Instead of answering Koyamada Nobu's words, Harunobu Takeda asked, "Kotaka, how is the situation in Suwa-gun?" ”

Sanada Yukitaka, who was sitting next to Yamamoto Kansuke, replied, "My lord, according to the news from Uehara Castle, there are already many people who are secretly in contact with the people of Suwa West. ”

As soon as the words fell, Oyamada Shinyu said: "Look, these people are swaying, and if our army doesn't go over, they will take refuge directly." ”

Kansuke Yamamoto smiled, "So what? This is also the purpose of this family, so let's see who is an enemy and who is a friend in Suwa.

Now Ogasawara has long been very contemptuous of our army, because of the battle of Uedawara, our morale is low, so he is even more careless.

It's July now, and the weather is hot, so let the Ogasawara army be exposed to the scorching heat, and then our army will launch a surprise attack! ”

"Surprise attack?" Rice Fu Huchang said, "It turned out to be this idea. ”

Yamamoto Kansuke nodded and said, "Hey, that's exactly what it means, the carelessness of the Ogasawara army and the hot weather in July are all our allies!" ”

Takeda Harunobu squinted his eyes and said: "Everyone, this is a battle of life and death for the Takeda family, and it also determines whether the results of the Takeda family's struggle in the past few years can be kept, everyone work hard!" ”

After the military council dispersed, Sanada Yutaka said to Kansuke Yamamoto: "The latest news, there are dozens more people on the Western side of Suwa, but they don't belong to the Western people. ”

Kansuke Yamamoto frowned and said: "It's not from the West, sneaking in secretly, that's interesting, who does Sanada think it is?" ”

Sanada Yutaka analyzed: "If it's from Ogasawara, there's no need to be so secretive, and at this time, the people from the Murakami family should pay the most attention." ”

Kansuke Yamamoto nodded and said, "Yes, some of the recent actions of the Murakami family are different from what we expected, but I didn't expect the Takanashi family to make no moves at this time." ”

Sanada Yutaka nodded and said: "It can be seen that there is someone behind Murakami Yoshikiyo, and this person should have just appeared, and no one in his retainers has such insight." ”

Yamamoto Kansuke's one-eyed light shone and asked, "What's wrong with Ogasawara's military formation?" ”

Sanada Yutaka wondered: "It's strange, the military formation has not changed at all, and the soldiers are still very scattered. ”

Kansuke Yamamoto rubbed his chin and said, "It's very strange, Ogasawara didn't move at all, so what did the Murakami family send these dozens of people for?" Sanada, let the waves check carefully. ”

Sanada Yutaka nodded and said, "I understand, don't worry." ”

Later, Yamamoto Kansuke went to meet Takeda Harunobu, who looked at Yamamoto Kansuke below and asked, "Will that flag really make the Suwa people take refuge in their own family?" ”

Yamamoto Kansuke bowed his head and said: "Ha, the minister thinks it will be, this is the most important thing for the Suwa family, and when the time comes, the Suwa Manchu will approve, and the rest of the Suwa people will also agree." ”

Takeda Harunobu nodded and asked, "How is the situation over there in Shiojiri?" ”

Kansuke Yamamoto replied, "As expected, Ogasawara's soldiers couldn't stand the scorching heat, so they looked for a shady place to cool off. ”

Takeda Harunobu's solemn expression showed a smile: "Hahaha, then let's make Ogasawara Guardian happy for a few more days." ”

Kansuke Yamamoto hesitated for a moment, and then said, "My lord, there is something unusual on the side of the Western people in Suwa, and the minister feels that they have a connection with the Murakami family. ”

"Oh?" Takeda Harunobu put away his smile and said with a serious expression, "Can you find out the specific situation?" ”

Kansuke Yamamoto shook his head and said, "Sanada has already gone to investigate, and it will take some time." ”

Takeda Harunobu's eyes narrowed, with a serious hint of fierceness: "Murakami! ”

Harunobu Takeda was still young, and he was still haunted by the defeat in the Uedawara battle, which was his first defeat since the war.

Kansuke Yamamoto thought that Harunobu Takeda would lose control of his emotions, but it didn't take long for Harunobu Takeda to return to normal.

Takeda Harunobu asked, "Kansuke, what do you think is the use of sending dozens of people if it is the Murakami family?" Secretly infiltrated the Western people of Suwa, but did not contact Ogasawara Guardian? Why? ”

Yamamoto Kansuke bowed his head and said: "My lord, to be honest, the minister is also very confused, the Murakami family and the Ogasawara family have not reached an agreement on the alliance, this move is really unpredictable. ”

Harunobu Takeda frowned and said, "Our plan was formulated when we were familiar with Ogasawara and the people of Suwa West, and there was a sudden change that could affect our plan.

In this way, Kansuke, find a way to let Ogasawara know that there are people from Yoshikiyo Murakami on the Western side of Suwa, and see how it goes. ”

Kansuke Yamamoto nodded and said, "The lord is wise!" ”

After Kansuke Yamamoto left, he found Yutaka Sanada, and he left the matter to him.

Two days later, a group of chaotic waves returned, and soon Sanada Yutaka went to see Kansuke Yamamoto with the latest news.

Yutaka Sanada said, "Kansuke, the new group of people is unusual. Ranbo found a weapon similar to his family's iron cannon, but wrapped in strips of cloth. There are quite a few of them, a full fifteen! ”

"Iron cannon?" Kansuke Yamamoto was slightly surprised, "Yoshikiyo Murakami also knows about the iron cannon?" Things are getting a little troublesome. ”

Sanada Yutaka wondered, "Fifteen iron cannons will threaten our surprise attack plan?" ”

Yamamoto Kansuke shook his head and said: "No, I think Murakami Yoshikiyoshi doesn't know about the iron cannon, if he knows, the family will attack Kitashinano in the future, and it will be troublesome." ”

Sanada Yutaka was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Indeed, the iron cannon guarding the city seems to have a great advantage." ”

Kansuke Yamamoto asked, "How is the military situation of Ogasawara?" ”

Sanada Yutaka replied, "It's still the same, and besides, I've already let Ranbo spread the news to Ogasawara Nagasa, and there will be action on the same day."

Ogasawara sent someone to Yajima Yorimitsu for questioning, and the people of the Murakami family were driven away. If it weren't for Yorimitsu Yajima's insistence, this group of people would have been arrested. ”

Kansuke Yamamoto nodded and said, "Let the chaos be closely monitored, this battle, the Takeda family can't lose!" ”
