After some discussion, the coalition decided that Asai Nagamasa would be the commander of the northern front, Oda Nobunaga would be the commander of Inabayama Castle, and Tokugawa Ieyasu would be in charge of the southern front. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info this distribution plan immediately satisfied the three parties. Asai was given the opportunity to establish his power by sweeping away the small tycoons, and Oda urgently needed to show his power with a victory known to the world, and for Tokugawa, no matter how much land conquered, he would not be able to take care of it, as long as he kept his strength and did not make unnecessary sacrifices.

Thanks to the cooperative efforts of many parties, the enemy's intelligence was quickly transmitted. At present, there are about 10,000 people who can make the Rokkaku family like an arm, among which Rokkaku Yoshiken and Yoshiji father and son led 1,000 people to suppress the battle in Inabayama Castle, and the archery master Yoshida Izumo Mamoru led 3,000 people to protect the flank of Misaku Castle, and Daisuke Tanaka Jibe, who was appointed as a general, led 6,000 main forces to concentrate on Wadayama Castle in front. The three cities are horns of each other.

As for the other retainers who were guarding the eighteen branch cities on the outside, they had either been diverted by Oda or were intimidated by his prestige, and they did not dare to fight, so they could be omitted, and it was precisely because of this that Rokkaku did not bring these unmotivated reserves into the city.

If Oda attacked Wadayama Castle, he would have to face 6,000 defenders. If you flank Kesaku, there are also 3,000 troops, and if you cross the two cities and rush to Inabayama Castle, then the soldiers and horses of the three cities can converge into one and besiege it.

The layout of the hexagonal family can be called decent, there is nothing surprising, and there is no big mistake to be found, but in the case of a large disadvantage of the army, it is difficult to achieve any results only by defending the city with a stable formation.

After Nobunaga saw this preparation, he didn't think long before he gave the order to siege the city:

"Inaba is one iron, Ando is Shou, the clan is complete, and the first team is in charge of the first team and attacks Wada Mountain Castle. It is necessary to pay attention to the combination of virtual and real in order not to be seen through by others. ”

"Yes." The newly attached Mino people received the order with great emotion. Although they have not yet played a role in the Oda family, the results of these people in the past are quite good.

"Katsuie Shibata, Katsunari Mori, Masanori Sakai, and Tsuneko Ikeda are in charge of the second team, interspersed in the middle of the enemy's three castles, cut off their contact, and if anyone goes out of the castle to pick them up, give me a hard blow."

"Yes!" The shouts of the old generals led by Shibata shook the sky.

This most arduous and easy task was given to a few generals who had long commanded the elite of the Oda family.

"The rest are coming with me, for the third team, attacking Misaku Castle, be sure to take it within three days!"

In those years in Inabu and Ukino, Nobunaga was the first soldier, did not avoid bullets, inspired the whole army with a brave attitude, and then won more with less, and after repeated defeats in the strategy of Mino but gradually transformed into a strategist, and now he shows a heroic spirit that has not been seen for a long time, which makes the retainers of the martial arts school feel quite excited.

……

The castle is built on the mountain, and the height is only more than 100 meters, but the passages from the bottom to the top are narrow and rugged, and it is inconvenient to pass. The mountain is also covered with artificial earthen walls and horigou as barriers, making it difficult to storm them.

"The general who defends the castle is the famous master of Hioki Ryu Archery, Yoshida Izumo Mamoru." Takigawa Kazuki reported to Nobunaga, "The Shogun and the Ashigaru Shogun are also mostly from the countrymen who practice martial arts, and those 3,000 soldiers are called 'warriors', and they are all warriors who are good at all kinds of weapons. ”

"Practicing martial arts, although you are brave, you may not know what to do." Nobunaga muttered to himself. Then he ordered:

"Niwa Nagahide, lead 3,000 men to attack the main gate in the south."

"Yes!"

"Takigawa Kazuki, lead your headquarters and go around to the west to attack."

"Yes."

"Tie Tsusu, Sakuma Nobumori is on standby."

"Yes!"

"Order the soldiers to make food, and go out in three quarters of an hour!"

"Huh?" Niwa, who has a more cautious personality, stepped forward and said, "However, it is now the time of the unitary......

Nobunaga interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "The opponent's reserve is mainly composed of warriors, and I lack experience in commanding, so I can attack at night to provide cover for a surprise attack." ”

So the latter nodded yes, and no longer said anything, but turned his head and ordered his subordinates to prepare.

Three moments later, Niwa got on his horse, raised his gun, shouted "Attack with me" and rushed forward. Mizoguchi Hidekatsu, Murakami Yorikatsu, Oshima Mitsuyoshi and others responded to the call, with hundreds of elites clustered around him. The ashigaru team was divided into several echelons according to the formation, and kept a certain distance and advanced in turn.

In the city, from the city lord onwards, there is no shortage of sharpshooters who pierce through the Yang in a hundred steps. At first, he was confused for a moment because he didn't expect the other party's night attack, and was killed by Niwa's vanguard to the castle. When the defenders stood still and began to snipe, within thirty or fifty paces, almost none of them missed. On this side, advanced iron cannons were immediately used to return fire, trying to suppress the output of the city.

From time to time, the samurai on horseback fell to the ground in the siege army, but the main general was not afraid, taking the lead and not avoiding bullets, which rekindled the fighting spirit of the soldiers under his command.

Niwa Nagahide has been making meritorious contributions in both internal affairs and strategy for several years, and gradually people have forgotten that Owari still has the name of a fierce general who is not afraid of death. Although he was not good at military studies, he acted cautiously, so he rarely took risks in battle formations, but always put on a regular formation and adopted a posture of attacking with regular troops.

Cautious and composed, so he will not be easily tricked, and his subordinates have died one after another, relying on these two ways, although it is not enough to win, but it has been invincible.

The retainers who supported him accordingly cooperated with each other according to the division of labor in the pre-war drills, and made up for the shortcomings of Niwa Nagahide's army with their individual abilities. Murakami Yorikatsu brought dozens of strong men, under the cover of bows and arrows, carrying gunpowder on their backs and approaching the city gate, Mizoguchi Hidekatsu used the big tree in front of the city gate as a temporary high platform, shot fire arrows or baked in the city, and set fire to the wooden buildings, Ota Kazuyoshi pressed the formation in the rear, and sent reserves to take turns to step forward to maintain the pressure.

"Gorou left a good fight!"

Nobunaga in this camp gave a rare compliment.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and it was gradually impossible to see the situation on the front line. At the beginning of the year, the sun set early, and it was already night, and the Niwa Division, which had been fighting for nearly two hours, was replaced by a herald.

"How?" Nobunaga asked him succinctly.

"The enemy has close bows and arrows, and it is difficult to get close. The city gate had been smashed, but the tiger's mouth behind the gate was too narrow for the soldiers to approach. Niwa replied fifteen-ten.

There was a moment of silence.

"Sakuma, continue the attack, and don't let the enemy have time to rest until the Takigawa Department is completed."

"Yes!"

Nobumori Sakuma responded in response.

His tactics are no different from Niwa's, so the effects are also very type. After two hours of hard fighting, he finally broke through the first layer of the tiger's mouth, and blew up the two yakuras behind the door with simple gunpowder. However, due to the sniper attack on Sakuma himself, he had to retreat back, which greatly reduced the morale of the whole team. And the defenders, who were about to be overwhelmed, began to shout loudly again.

The second attack failed again.

"Hasn't Takigawa arrived yet?"

At this time, the scouts reported that the troops attacking after Takigawa's circle were suppressed by the opponent's strong bow team at the bend of the mountain road, and it was difficult to advance. At the same time, the new information is that the bow group in the castle is a two-person cooperation method, one is responsible for shooting, the other is responsible for handing arrows, and waiting until the former is tired before switching positions, so the frequency and persistence of bows and arrows have been greatly improved.

All in all, there is no positive news.

Nobunaga's face began to look ugly. If the so-called one blow of vigor is followed by a decline and exhaustion in three times, if the continuous onslaught fails, it will be a strong blow to the mentality of the whole army.

"Your Highness." "If you can lure them out of the city, then it's easy to deal with." Now the morale of the other party is high, and most of the commanders in the city are warriors, and the people with strong blood must be easily provoked. ”

"How to seduce?" Nobunaga asked unequivocally.

"Our army can disguise itself as a long-term attack and change the target, I guess the other side will most likely pursue."

"What if the enemy is not fooled?"

"Then provoke it, or ......" Honxiu hesitated for a moment.

"Speak up!"

"Use the general's banner and the Shadow Warrior as a lure."

If the banner of "Yongle Tongbao" swaggered past the city, presumably the group of self-confident generals in the city would never stand still.

Nobunaga pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "How can the Shadow Warriors imitate the prestige of my Nobunaga, if I were to be the bait myself, they would definitely fall for it." ”

"This ......"

The courage of this highness is really not small. Using itself as bait to attract the city soldiers to attack, if it is self-defeating, it is likely to cause the collapse of the whole army.

"Tie the show! Lead the team to stand by, wait for the enemy to be lured out, and then counterattack. ”

"Yes."

Fan Xiu immediately returned to the military formation to set up. Keiji led 50 cavalry, 200 ashigaru assaulted the enemy generals, Toda Tadaji led the Mikawa people around to cut off the opponent's retreat back to the city, and the rest of the men flanked the opponent with the main formation.

Then Oda Nobunaga led hundreds of his direct soldiers to break away from his main camp and go directly to the north. A few hundred meters away from the city, he suddenly reined in his horse and shouted to the city: "I am Oda Nobunaga, how dare I fight?" ”

Sasa Narumasa, Maeda Toshiya and others also waved their flags and shouted:

"Oda Bullet is here!"

"Rats, dare to fight!"

There was an uproar in the city.

After no one answered, Nobunaga looked up to the sky and laughed, and said, "But that's it! If you come here again in three days, you will definitely be slaughtered! ”

"Three days of city breaking!"

"Slaughter all the people!"

The pro-soldiers also shouted loudly.

After speaking, he rode his horse and moved north. The main army followed and moved slowly, opening a long gap in the middle.

This is the so-called yang conspiracy, and the other party knows that it is likely to be a strategy, but the defenders are mostly bloody warriors rather than quiet people, and this opportunity to win Oda Nobunaga must not be ignored.

Before long, an army was killed in the city and went straight to Nobunaga's own team.

"I'm Shinsuke Yoshida! Follow me to get the Oda traitor! ”

The general in the center is Yoshida Shinsuke, the son of the castle lord, who is brave and brave, and rushes to the front with more than 100 horses.

"Attack!"

At the same time, he pulled out his long knife.

Nobunaga was in high spirits, and he was about to fight back with a knife, but Sasa and Maeda hurriedly led the black red mother-clothed crowd to block in front of him, and brave generals such as Hidetaka Kawajiri, Beeya Yoritaka, Iio Naokiyo, and Sakyo Ryoyuki fought one after another, forming a white-knives battle in front of the battle.

"Didn't you say that Owari was a weak soldier in the world?" Shinsuke Yoshida spat indignantly, "It's really hard to bite...... Well? ”

At this time, the flat hand department had already shown a trend of encirclement, suppressing the army of the hexagonal family from three sides.

"There's no way to go back! If you want to survive, you can only win Oda Nobunaga! ”

Shinsuke Yoshida shouted loudly and sent out a hundred people to intercept it, and the rest ignored the threat from the flanks and rear, and rushed in the direction of the enemy general like a tidal wave.

"It's tenacious!" Nobunaga, who was in danger, praised instead.

Pingshou Fanxiu began to be a little anxious, and kept urging his retainers: "Hurry up and don't delay!" ”

The enemy army was only divided into 100 people to intercept it, but it was hard to shake it like an iron nail, some people were still fighting with dozens of arrows and blood flowing like a needle, some people had to pull the horse's leg and trip the opponent's general before they died, and some people wielded a big sword only to attack and not defend, as if they were crazy. Although Honda Masashige, Tokuyama Norihide, and Baixiang Jiajia were brave, they could not break through for a while, and the spear formation, which had been practiced for a long time, was difficult to play in this chaotic battle.

"Keiji, leave it alone here, go around with the cavalry!" So ordered Tsuyo-so.

"Huh! I took the head of the enemy general! ”

Keiji carried a riding spear, bowed and rode a horse, and rode in the lead. On the left side is the first-class straight end, wielding a big body gun with strange power, even if it is blocked, it can often be knocked over with people and horses, and Ke'er on the right is hiding, holding a cross spear, with extremely accurate eyesight, a stab and a stroke, it is a head.

Yoshida Shinsuke commanded the attack Nobunaga with all his might, and did not notice the cavalry that was killing from the side, but Keiji was reluctant to sneak attack, but shouted:

"My ghost boy is here!"

"Hmph, just in time!" Shinsuke Yoshida was only stunned for a moment, and then he did not hesitate to raise his gun to meet him. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
