Chapter 80: The End of the Crossbow (Part II)

Takeda Shingen asked questions again and again, and Muto Kibei answered them fluently, and time flew by.

During the Q&A, the latest information sent by all parties was quickly read and the handling plan was determined.

As the leader of the favored "Okujin Xi Zhong", Muto Kibei is responsible for translating the words of the lord into official letters, he has always been rigorous in wording, leaving no ambiguity, preferring to spend more pen and ink, so hard to write for most of the hour, his wrist is quite tired, his eyes are sore, and he feels a little unable to hold on.

Takeda Shingen, who is more than twice as old, became more and more energetic the more he spoke, and his words were clear and orderly, not only decisively making instructions on major policies, but also deliberately instructing many details of the implementation methods, ordering his retainers to work hard and not delay for half a minute.

In the end, Muto Kibei wrote seven sheets of paper.

By this time, the sky had turned hazy and white.

A human voice came from outside the tent:

"The young master is here, but what is the important thing to report?"

"Hehe, it's nothing extraordinary, but I heard that Lord Gokan has woken up, and I don't happen to be sleeping, so I thought I'd come over and visit."

Hearing this, Takeda Shingen smiled and gestured with his eyes.

The two handymen who had been on call for a long time hurriedly rolled up the curtain and respectfully invited the young master to enter.

"See the Father!"

It was none other than Katsuyori Takeda. He had just been outside the tent, chatting with the captain of the pro-soldiers, it could be said that he was lightweight, talking and laughing, but as soon as he entered and came in, he instantly became restrained, meticulous and meticulous, and did not dare to say more.

It is a typical scene of Xiao Zi meeting Yan's father.

It's all because your biological mother went too early, and I, the father, are too busy with state affairs, so that this child lacks a sense of security-Takeda Shingen sighed so much in his heart, but his face didn't move at all, he just waved his hand with a straight face and waved "um", which was considered a return gift, and immediately asked: "Shiro (Takeda Katsuyori), you have never been an early riser, what's going on today?" Feeling uneasy? Or are you feeling unwell? ”

“…… Belch...... It's a little uneasy to say, but it's just for business rather than for private reasons. Takeda Katsuyori crouched on the ground and replied without raising his head, "In the past few days, you have instructed you to pay attention to the movements of the Hisho Army, and the retainers are always like a great enemy, for fear of falling into the tricks of the old fox of the Hisho Punishment Department, so even at night, they deliberately confess to the left and right, and every other hour, wake me up and go out to inspect the account." ”

"You kid, you've been the most sleepy since you were a child, and now you have this kind of awareness, it's rare!" Takeda Shingen smiled slightly, and then frowned and shook his head: "But the method is too stupid!" As a general, with a heavy burden on the army, you must know the priorities, if you have to bow down to yourself, even Zhuge Wuhou will be tired to death! For the night patrol, it is enough to send one or two ashigaru generals. ”

"That's what you said." Takeda Katsuyori didn't care about it, he first bowed down and bowed his head to admit his mistake, and then whispered to defend himself: "It's just that the other side is a tie after all......

"It is right to pay attention, but to attach too much importance is to fear the enemy." Takeda Shingen analyzed very patiently, "Didn't you also see the military power of Uesugi Danmasa a few years ago?" You should know that although Echigo Iron Rider is terrifying, he is also a mortal after all. The same is true for the Tie Army, which will never be able to fly with wings. ”

"Yes......" Katsuyori Takeda buried his head lower, and the volume sank.

Seeing this, Takeda Shingen changed the subject: "Since you have been patrolling every other hour all night, you must be very clear about the movements on the other side. Is there anything worth mentioning? ”

"Yes!" Speaking of this, Takeda Katsuyori's head was raised slightly, and there was a hint of joy in his voice: "From sunset to early morning, the opponent's left and right flanks each launched a night attack, all of which were seen through by me, the first time the enemy was cautious, and fled at the first touch, leaving only twenty or thirty heads, and the second time I was more patient, pushing the boat down the river, and killed more than 100 people from the Tieshou family." After being identified, the highest identity among them was Okakishi Masa, one of the leaders of the Saga Party, a member of the Kii Kuni! ”

"Hmm...... Not bad. Takeda Shingen praised it without being salty, not at all, but a little disapproving. However, he glanced down at his son, and suddenly changed his words: "Well, who in the world doesn't know the prestige of the Zahe Party?" The Heite Punishment Department placed Suzuki in Shikoku and swept away Tsuchihashi, and now this Okakishi is about to be the new flag head of Saga. Today, my son is courting this person, which can be described as a great prestige, and it will be very beneficial to govern the country in the future. ”

"It will be very advantageous to govern the country in the future", the subtext is that "it is of little significance in the current war".

It's not that Takeda Katsuyori can't hear the off-strings, but he has always been praised, and his nervous mood has finally eased a lot.

The back that was originally bent down deeply straightened a little, and he dared to raise his neck slightly.

At this moment, Takeda Shingen wanted to continue teaching a few words, but suddenly felt dizzy, his body shook, and he almost fell off the maza.

"Father!" Seeing this, Shenglai ran and jumped, and stepped forward to support him.

"It's okay, it's okay...... Takeda Shingen instantly came back to his senses and waved his hand, "Maybe the tempura I ate yesterday wasn't too fresh, or I didn't sleep well." ”

"You'd better pay more attention to your rest." Takeda Katsuyori half-knelt on the ground and said worriedly, "After all, you are an old man, and your age is ...... after all It's ...... after all."

When the words landed, Muto Kibei on the side raised his throat and subconsciously took two small steps back.

A day ago, Sanzhi Shouyou said something similar, and then he was reprimanded and punished, and sent back to escort the grain and grass. When Naito Masataka pleaded, he was careful not to touch those words.

What about today?

I saw that Takeda Shingen was still frowning deeply, extremely displeased, but he stood up, lowered his head and glared angrily for a while, did not vent out, but his anger gradually subsided, but smiled kindly, bent down and patted Takeda Katsuyori's shoulder, and said softly: "The time I have available is indeed not too much, maybe it is only three or five years, but because of this, we must work harder to solve the problems that should be solved one by one...... No, don't bow your head, it's not because they don't trust you. How can there be parents in the world who do not trust their children and grandchildren? As a father, I believe that after a few years of training, you have your own way to deal with the Tie Punishment Department on your own, but wouldn't it be better to arrange everything in advance to be foolproof? ”

"Father! I...... I'm ashamed......"

Takeda Katsuyori bowed his head in a deep voice, and his eyes were a little red.

On the other side, Muto Kibei put his mind at ease - after all, it is his own son, and it is still different.

However, this scene of father's love and filial piety seems to be not suitable for outsiders to watch.

It just so happens that the sky is getting brighter, so you might as well sneak out on official business.

With this in mind, Muto Kibei moved slowly and softly towards the door.

As a result, as soon as he stepped out, he didn't take two steps, but he collided with a colleague who was coming on.

There are not many samurai in the entire Takeda family system who are gorgeously dressed and can go straight to the big tent, but Muto Kibei looked at the person in front of him and was a little unfamiliar.

After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that this was the left and right hand of the young master, and the Kai Spectrum Trace Department was victorious.

Hurriedly salute.

The trace of the department of Shengzi was dusty and panting, but he did not have the slightest idea of sitting down and resting, but as if he was facing a great enemy, his mind was uncertain, he had no time to greet him, and hurriedly said hello, and after the name, he hurriedly entered, and bowed to Takeda Shinxuan and Katsuyori father and son, and said: "Lord, young master!" Reconnaissance at the front revealed that about half an hour ago, the Hirate army began to cross the Nakahosokawa River and attack our army! ”

"Is there such a thing?!" Hearing this, Takeda Katsuyori jumped up excitedly, "Haha, the reason why we didn't block them by the river, but set aside the plains for them to drive, is just waiting for this opportunity!" Regarding the battle outside the city, except for being equal to Echigo Uesugi, I, the Kai Takeda clan, have never looked down on anyone! ”

Takeda Shingen shook his head very calmly and said, "This person from the Tie Punishment Department doesn't seem to have the courage to fight me head-on, does he have any other moves?" ”

"Yes, indeed!" Traces of Shengzi just breathed a sigh of relief, his face turned red again, and he spoke eagerly: "The Tie Army, it seems that it is pushing many carts and moving forward slowly!" That's a ......."

"How much is many? Is it a manual push, not a charged pull? Katsuyori Takeda asked, interrupting.

"At least three or five hundred cars, right?" Katsuki replied uncertainly, and then insisted that "my subordinates saw with their own eyes that the enemy soldiers were advancing in the form of two people pushing a cart, and after five to ten towns (i.e., 500 to 1,000 meters), they stopped and regrouped to rest." ”

"Strange, what's going on? What's the use of putting this thing in? Other than that...... Where did he come from, the bunch of carts he conjured? Takeda Katsuyori was puzzled.

"What is this......" Katsushi Kibe replied after a moment's thought, "We thought that the Herate clan transported grain from the sea, but now it seems that it may have brought a lot of cut wood with them during the mixing period, and brought them here to assemble them into ......."

"What can this be?" Katsuyori Takeda was inexplicable, "What are you doing with a cart when you're fighting?" ”

“…… Is it a car formation? Takeda Shingen touched his beard thoughtfully, "I've seen a lot of examples of this from the war book. Fusang is mountainous, the traffic is inconvenient, and it is difficult for chariots to pass. But this area of the Yuanjiang River is a rare plain, and it can also be supplied by water......"

“…… This...... This is not a cause for concern...... "Takeda Katsuyori is still self-reckless, although he is a little inward-looking, "This person in the Tie Punishment Department does often have unbelievable tricks, but not every one of them can work. ”

Katsushi Kibe and Kibei Muto stood on either side, silent, waiting for orders.

“…… Hahaha......" Takeda Shingen's face instantly changed a lot of expressions, and finally turned into a confident laugh, "It's really not a matter of worrying. Although the Tie Sho Punishment Department is a good general, he has a long way from Izumi to Enoe, and he has to deal with Matsunaga in the middle, support Minami Omi and Kita Ise, and also fight with the vanguard of my family, and now I am afraid that it is already the end of the strong crossbow! The so-called car formation, I think it's just a suspicious soldier! ”

"Oh!"

"I see, it's just a suspicious soldier!"

Katsuyori Takeda and Katsushi Trailbe accepted immediately.

Only Kibei Muto felt that it was slightly inappropriate. He vaguely felt that Takeda Shingen's words seemed to be a little insincere, and it seemed that he deliberately said it to calm morale.
