"The Lord of the Criminal Department traveled thousands of miles to save the Tokugawa clan at the time of overturning, the grace is as heavy as a mountain, and the love is rebuilt.

"Mikawa-sama is serious. Punishing adultery and eliminating evil is where the martial arts discipline lies, and it is incumbent upon them. ”

……

Looking at the tragic situation of this old friend in front of him, Tieshou felt very interesting in his heart.

Tokugawa Ieyasu, the lord of the three rivers and the distant rivers, was now imprisoned, his head was dirty, his hair was scattered, his cheeks were covered with smoky marks, his eyes were bloodshot, his lips and tongue were cracked several openings, and his clothes and armor were covered with colored mud formed by blood and dust, and he couldn't see the original color at all.

This appearance is almost like a beggar fleeing.

As for the dozen or so attendants next to them, most of them were seriously injured, some were hanging from one arm, some were limp and on crutches, some were bandaged with half of their faces, their bodies were generally emaciated, and the waistlines of several old faces were half a circle smaller than before......

But all of them, including Tokugawa Ieyasu, straightened their waists, held their heads high, their eyes were firm, their expressions were calm, and they exuded an indomitable fighting spirit all over their bodies.

Even if he looks like a beggar, he looks like the aura of a beggar gang leader and the four elders, and he is by no means a homeless man who pretends to be crazy and stupid and cries poor and hungry.

Although Hamamatsu Castle was saved by Hirate Tsunohide, seeing this appearance, no one can laugh at the Tokugawa family's lack of combat power, but only feel that they are still holding on to this field, which is admirable.

However...... After thinking about it, even though the conditions in Hamamatsu Castle were difficult, after all, it was still saved, and it was not impossible to wash your face and change your clothes, and find a few uninjured attendants to come out.

If it was so miserable, the city would have been lost a long time ago.

Hirate Honshu easily saw through Tokugawa Ieyasu's deliberate actions at a glance, but he didn't feel disgusted, and he didn't have the slightest idea of breaking it. Everyone has their own way of survival, and others can't put their beaks, not to mention that now everyone is in the same boat and belongs to a community of interests.

Not only did he say it, but he also emphasized to the dragons on the left and right: "The Tokugawa clan held on to the Enoehama Matsujo and pinned down the Takeda army for several months, so that the royal division had various opportunities to break through. When I return to, I will definitely advise the Lord and the Lord that the affairs of the east should be more dependent on the Tokugawa family. ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu immediately expressed his gratitude that he would scrupulously abide by his duties, be optimistic about Mikawa and Enoe, maintain the stability and harmony of the Tokaido, and resolutely not allow the conspiracy and ambition of a handful of rebellious ministers and thieves to succeed.

"Please rest assured, Lord General, Lord Guan, and Lord of the Criminal Department."

- Use such words as a closing word.

The general and the leader are duty-bound, but the tie is not in his position and does not seek his own government, and he will not be able to take his turn if he is not at ease, but it still sounds very useful to talk about it in such an empty way.

Further, if there is too much empty vernacular, it will gradually become less than empty vernacular......

Then the Tokugawa father and son met, but they did not show any strong feelings, and the exchange of brief greetings ended. It is very much in line with the narrative of family relationships in the context of traditional oriental culture.

On the contrary, a few outsiders, Oda Nagayi, Ikeda Tsuneko, Matsukura Shigenobu, etc., were very embarrassed to see Tokugawa Ieyasu's embarrassed appearance, and they felt that the world was impermanent and life was difficult.

Then along the way, the relatives of the Changzong and my department, who deliberately pretended to be violent and impatient, were very serious and solemn and said a profound "long admiration".

The reply I got was, "I've heard of a big name, I'm glad to have it!" ”

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but I always feel that there is a little bit of sympathy between these two people, and the rest of the people look mediocre and vulgar under each other.

Immediately afterwards, the head of the Changzong and my department quickly opened his mouth to the point: "Everyone must have something to say, and the territory is also in ruins, but the contemptible people think that the top priority at the moment is to decide whether to pursue the Takeda rebel army as soon as possible, I wonder if Lord Mikawa agrees?" ”

"That's what I want." Tokugawa Ieyasu's eyes suddenly lit up, "Even if the Takeda rebel army is defeated by the Heavenly Soldiers of the Criminal Department, but the hundred-legged insect dies and does not stiffen, he will have a comeback one day, if he does not take advantage of the victory to pursue at this time, when will he wait?" Although the defenders of Hamamatsu Castle were all wounded, as long as they heard about revenge on Takeda, the whole army would definitely have endless fighting spirit. ”

In the blink of an eye, the meeting has a tendency to turn into a military discussion......

Many people felt uncomfortable with the style of the words of the head relatives of the Changzong and my department, and they frowned sideways. However, Hinote had no opinion, and Tokugawa Ieyasu also showed considerable interest.

……

It is said that the original army of Kai, Shinano, Suruga, Nishiueno, and Nishi Musashi under the command of Takeda Shingen totaled 40,000 to 50,000, but in addition to the necessary remaining guards, plus the new surrender of Mikawa and Enoe, the number of fronts exceeded 50,000, which was very terrifying.

But the cost of marching and fighting is naturally very staggering. Moreover, more than half of these soldiers were temporarily conscripted peasant soldiers, and the percentage of workers who were out of work was very low, and by August and September, most of them had to return to their territories to participate in the autumn harvest.

By the time Hirate arrived at Hamamatsu Castle, it was already mid-July, and everyone knew that the enemy's withdrawal was imminent.

On the other hand, once the situation stabilizes, a considerable number of people on their side will definitely ask to return to Awaji, Kii's appearance, and the miscellaneous coalition forces of Shikoku.

Although after the reforms, the Hirate Honhide theoretically had the right to order those who volunteered to become "military servicemen" to participate in the expedition at any season, but there was no need to use this power lightly, and it was better to keep it.

The Izumi people don't need to, they've been almost killed in the incident at Kariya Castle.

Of course, the soldiers and horses of Oda and Tokugawa are also in urgent need of rest.

In this case, large-scale bloody clashes did not break out under the city.

Beginning in the early morning of July 12, the Takeda Army was led by the Suruga Pioneers, who were stationed south of Hamamatsu Castle, and then the troops set out in formation and retreated one by one.

In the afternoon of the same day, Hite-ho Tsunohide ordered Xiang Jiajia, Nakamura Kazushi and others to march into the army by different routes, and only then did they know for sure that the siege had been lifted. In no hurry to take further action, he first contacted the castle and confirmed the survival of Tokugawa Ieyasu.

Then the anxious son of Changzong and my first relatives mentioned the question of whether to pursue.

In this regard, Tieshou Fanxiu just smiled and did not point out the direction at the first time.

As a result, because of the prestige, the other tricks did not dare to take a stand at will.

But judging by the tone and look, everyone's opinion is obviously different.

Some people said that the implication was that they felt that they should fight again before disbanding and returning to the peasants, and then return to their respective homes after expanding the results of the war. There are also people who talk about him left and right, hoping to take it when they see it and maintain the existing boundaries, so as not to make it self-defeating.

There is truth to both views.

The current situation is relatively chaotic, although Hamamatsu Castle has been saved, but the entire Enoe Province, except for the southwest corner, has basically fallen, if this is ignored, and when the Takeda army returns after the autumn, the Tokugawa family may face a great crisis again, and this risk cannot be sat idly by.

At the same time, in the northern part of the Three Rivers and the eastern part of Mino, there were also large numbers of people who defected and surrendered, and these people did not constitute a decisive influence, but they were also very uncomfortable, and it was best to deal with them if they had spare strength.

In this way, it seems that the pursuit is inevitable.

But considering that two months ago, the Oda family was too Meng Lang and lost the field battle, so they lost Cheongju City in one go......

What if you finally get rid of the siege of Hamamatsu, but you rush to chase and be counterattacked, but you lose even worse, won't it be a big joke?

The tie showed a new weapon, took advantage of the terrain, and paid attention to a surprise to gain the upper hand. Giving up these advantages to fight hard will result in less confidence.

Therefore, there are many people who hold conservative views.

In fact, it feels a bit difficult to do a tie.

From the standpoint of their own interests, forcing the enemy to retreat has been initially successful, and all that remains is to wait for Takeda Shin Genyo to run out, and there is no need to risk a field battle with it.

But it is clear that this cannot be made public. Whatever the reason, refusing to pursue will smack of selfishness and cowardice, especially now that the morale of the soldiers below is high.

Surprisingly, Tokugawa Ieyasu, who had the most relevant interests, did not approve of the pursuit, and his attitude was: "You have already helped me so much, and I am really ashamed to ask the coalition to continue to take risks, and today the Takeda clan plot has been destroyed, and the enemy will only grow and become more and more exhausted, and one day they will wait for a more opportune time to solve the problem in the east." ”

Instead, Ikeda Tsuneko, who didn't have much to stake, recommended himself to Hinobu Tenohide, "Lord Crime, after a long battle with Takeda this year, your prestige is already known to the world, the Tokugawa clan's perseverance is also impressive, and the colleagues of Shikoku and Kii are also working hard to make people stronger, only I, the Oda clan, have made people laugh, please give us a chance to wash away the stigma." ”

Such a statement is hard to refuse.

Hirata immediately agreed to the request, allowing Ikeda to lead thousands of Oda troops as the vanguard to pursue Takeda. In addition, Kato Kyoaki, Kasai Naganobu and other troops of the banner people followed closely behind, maintaining response, covering the flanks, and always ready to support.

Among these thousands of Oda troops, there is also Sasa Hidenari, the son of Sasa Seimasa, who is nominally the second commander in this group.

The reason why Fu Yiyuan has this status is self-evident.

In public, of course, the tie show is full of praise and encouragement to his son-in-law.

But he couldn't help but have an ulterior dark thought in his heart: "Now that Xue Chiyo has just married him, he has no emotional foundation, and even if he dies in battle, he probably won't be too sad." Instead, you can arrange a more suitable new husband for this girl......"
