Although the approach proposed by Nobuyasu Ataka is very unreasonable, after all, he still occupies Awaji Island, stuck between Kinai and Shikoku, and all follow-up actions must be based on the smooth passage of the sea. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info He bites this point and refuses to let go, and there is nothing the rest can do to stop it. Therefore, in the end, the plan was changed to let the sailors who were unwilling to take refuge in the Oda family leave, welcome the Hirate Raiders into Awaji Island, attract Shinohara Nagabo to lead troops to resist, and then wait for the opportunity to act in front of the battle, and cooperate with the outside in order to seek or capture Shinohara Nagabo.

Iwanari Yutong already had a stomach in his heart, but he was disrupted by Antaku Shinyasu's abnormal behavior, so he simply braked quietly, and stayed on standby for the time being, waiting to see how the situation changed.

According to the agreement, he will enter Awaji Island tomorrow night with the vanguard army under the command of Heisate, along with his own naval army. This involves at least nearly 2,000 troops, more than 200 ships, and more than 1,000 sailors, and requires the cooperation of many people such as Kuki Yoshitaka, Matsuyama Shigeharu, Kasai Naganobu, Doctor Terada Yasuda, Manabe Gorou Uemon, and Awawa Shinbei, and it is not an easy task to keep it as hidden as possible.

On the other side, Miyoshi's eldest heir also said goodbye, he claimed: "Although I am not very conspicuous, it is inevitable that I will not attract attention when I leave Shikoku for a long time, and before leaving, my father repeatedly told me to go back as soon as possible, so I stayed for a short time!" ”

This statement is probably to deal with the rectum of Ataka Shinyasu. In Iwasari DFI's view, there are still quite doubts, but they don't pay attention to it, just keep it in mind.

In an instant, several ships anchored between Izumi Beach and Awaji Island dispersed in the same direction in the night, and instantly returned to their calm appearance, as if nothing had happened.

At Miyoshi's Katsurui Castle Ninomaru and Hirate Honhide's military camp in Tamwa Port, these two different locations, things have just begun.

The same scene, with the addition of the paraphrase procedure between the different parties, was transformed into information that was inconsistent. Then decision-makers are inevitably influenced by their own subjective subconscious, resulting in minor misunderstandings.

No matter how clever the original plan was, it could not withstand the superimposed effect of many trivial misunderstandings. Therefore, the more carefully planned the plan, the more likely it is to have accidents. In particular, the situation is complicated and communication is poor, and the commanders in the rear must give full trust and patience, and cannot expect any immediate results.

In any case, the forces under Hirate Honhide still set off as planned. More than 200 ships, carrying 2,500 vanguard troops who were more than originally planned, took advantage of the darkness of night to march along the designated route.

On average, each ship seems to have to carry only ten passengers, which is not a heavy burden. However, the actual scale of the small hayakai ship was too small to carry infantry who were not familiar with the water on board, and a small number of Ataka ships were equipped with a large amount of munitions, and the volume was not as large as it seemed, and the main force was still closed. On average, there were about thirty ashigaru men in full armor and rations on each ship, and this task was not easy.

From the Awawa Port in Izumi to the Shuhonjo Castle in the East Bay of Awaji Province, the waterway is only an hour and a half. With the cooperation of Ataka Shinyasu, there is a good chance to bypass the patrols of the Awaji Navy Army.

The journey along the way seems to confirm this. The fleet set out from about three o'clock in Hai, and when it first arrived, it did not see the Awaji naval army that used to show off its power here, and did not even encounter merchant ships.

Despite this, Nine Ghost Jialong still commanded his subordinates very nervously, maintaining a vigilant posture, never relaxing, and ready to fight the enemy who appeared out of nowhere.

He is now in command not only of his own troops, but also of the alliance with the Quanhao Clan's naval army. Behind the fleet were eight large ships in the style of the Nanban, which were the direct forces of Hisho Tsuhide, and now the Nanban instructor was the captain for the time being.

Each of the eight big ships seems to be classified as a "house ship", and it adds up to a lot of power. But this doesn't seem to be able to give the Nine Ghosts Jialong the slightest confidence.

Iwanari Yutong sat next door. He seemed much calmer, and even had time to observe and speculate on the state of mind of his new colleagues.

In his opinion, it must have been Nobunaga's very simple description of the task beforehand, which made the Nine Demons Kataka lack of psychological preparation. Although I didn't see Oda Danmasa himself, it was not surprising that the adult did such a thing.

This is completely different from the late Changqing Gong! Changqing Gong has always been very kind to his retainers, and as long as he honestly admits that he is not able to do it, he will not be forced into difficult ministry. But that kind of mercy is not a woman's kindness, and Changqing Gong will not show mercy to real enemies and rebellious retainers, but will leave a certain amount of face on the surface......

Every time he thinks of his deceased master, Iwanari Youtong is always uneasy.

First regardless of his family's efforts in Shenglong Temple City, and then regardless of his future safety, he let go of Miyoshi Zhengkang, he felt that he was no longer much indebted to the current Miyoshi family, but for the late Miyoshi Changqing, he always had unspeakable emotions.

The only thing that can convince himself is that the heir chosen by the lord is really unbearable to assist, and it is no wonder that the retainers are centrifuged......

"Here we are."

Nine Ghost Jialong's short, deep voice interrupted his thoughts.

When I looked up, I saw that I had reached the shore, and I could already see the lanterns lit, and it seemed that I had indeed arrived at the port under the state city.

You can still faintly see the team coming to meet you on the shore.

Then it was the turn of the infantry to land and fight.

In fact, the infantry needs to take much higher risks than the navy. In the event of an accident, the ship can always escape in time, at least partially, and the lone troops who land on the island are at risk of total annihilation.

Iwanari Yutong and Kuki Yoshitaka have different personalities. Both men have been through several ups and downs, but the former has become increasingly bearish and adventurous, while the latter has become increasingly conservative and cautious.

Therefore, Iwanari Yutong's demeanor was much more calm, he bowed his hand to the Nine Ghosts Jialong to say goodbye, and then simply ordered the people around him: "Enter the city!" He took the lead and became one of the first people to go ashore.

The rest of the samurai, who were still a little suspicious, also settled down when they saw his appearance, and each commanded the people to land from the ship.

As for the soldiers at the bottom, they didn't know the situation at all, and they only got the order that "they will board the ship to Awaji Island tonight and be on guard", and they will not know the specific changes. It's not a deliberate attempt to hide anything, it's the norm on the march.

Besides, having successfully reached the island, there is no need to hide it. If Nobuyasu Yasuku didn't tell a lie, then the leader of the navy who refused to join him would be expelled from the island, and the news would naturally be passed on. If An Zhai Xinkang is cheating, then he will immediately try to see the dagger, let alone think about it so much.

Fortunately, the person standing in the center of the response line seemed to be Nobuyasu Yasuku himself.

As soon as they met, he immediately stepped forward, stood side by side with Iwanari Yutong, and began to talk, which was probably enough to dispel this concern.

The landing of more than 200 large and small ships is naturally not simple, and the capacity of the port in the prefecture and city is limited, and it is necessary to constantly direct the ships of the release crew to withdraw from the port to make room, and at the same time, the ships that are still outside must also drive in in an endless stream. There were no standard specifications for ships in this era, and they needed to be commanded by the experience of naval generals.

Nine Ghost Jialong has no problem in this regard. Maybe he still has seventy percent of his mind worrying about the sky until now, but the remaining thirty percent of his energy is enough. It stands to reason that he should have never been to Awaji, and his vision was greatly affected at night, but the flow of traffic in the fleet was very smooth, and there was no obstruction.

Seeing that two or three thousand people had landed as promised, Antaku Nobuyasu's frowning brows eased slightly. But after a while, his expression became grim again, and he asked Iwanari Yutong, "How many big ships are there there?" Seems to be a Nanban style? Is it also brought by the Nine Ghosts? ”

"That's the direct trolls of Hisate-sama. and is not suitable for carriage. "Iwanari Yutong didn't think to hide the news. In his opinion, it is extremely strange that as the head of the Awaji banner, he didn't know about it.

Nobuyasu Yasuku gritted his teeth when he heard this, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said everything, and just shook his head slightly.

Although the Nine Ghosts Jialong commanded properly, the actions of the naval army were very slow, and it took a lot of effort to land ashore. Then, under the guidance of Nobuyasu Atakate, the Heite Army divided some of its men and horses by land and water, and occupied various highlands and access routes on Awaji Island with the main castle as the center, leaving only a single opening to Shikoku and allowing those who did not want to join to retreat. Iwanari Tomotsu took 1,500 people with him as a deterrent by force.

The troops on Awaji Island are mainly sailors, and there are very few people who are good at land warfare, so this deterrent force is sufficient.

This period of busyness was not settled until the sky was dark. In other words, I couldn't close my eyes in the second half of the night.

You can't rest for the rest of the day. Because Anzhai Nobuyasu has already begun to send people to inform the leaders of the other naval armies to discuss matters in the state and city.

The most dangerous stage has passed, and according to the predetermined plan, there will be no fighting in the future, but the army must still remain in a state of combat, lest some wealthy clans take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos after the negotiations fail.

However, the Nine Ghosts had already relaxed a little, and Iwasari Yutong was standing on the shore, and he could see a little happiness on his face, as well as a hint of disapproval.

As if blaming Iwanari, he made a big fuss in advance and overemphasized the danger.

Iwanari Youtong is also a little confused. According to common sense analysis, the Awaji Navy should have been infiltrated very badly, and when it landed just now, it was clear that it was ready to deal with the attack, but it did not come in handy.

At this time, he couldn't think about it anymore, and the voice of Anzhai Nobuyasu came to his ears: "Lord Iwanari, please join me in attending the meeting, otherwise my one-sided words, I'm afraid the convincing power may not be enough." ”
