Listening to Oda Nobusumi's words, Sabei said to Oda Nobusumi: "Shichibei, don't panic, I think the young master and Niwa-sama should also know about this at this time." Yanbi Sabei said to Oda Nobusumi again: "Maybe it's a flaw deliberately exposed by Takeda Katsuyori, or maybe it's just a coincidence!" ”

After hearing this, Oda Nobusumi shook his head and said, "Sabei, this matter is related to the safety of Gifu City, we must act cautiously, even if it is just a coincidence, we must prevent this coincidence from bringing unexpected disasters to us!" ”

As they spoke, they came to the castle hall, and at this time, the attendants sent by Oda Nobutada happened to collide with the two. The two of them didn't make much of a false salute, and walked quickly to the evaluation room where Oda Nobutada and Niwa Nagahide were.

After sitting down on the left hand side of Oda Nobutada, Tsuda Nobusumi immediately bowed his head and said to Oda Nobutada: "Young master, I don't know what the young master thinks about the matter of making a reward?" ”

Hearing this, Oda Nobutada glanced at Niwa Nagahide on the side, and then said to Tsuda Nobusumi: "Fang Cai, I am also discussing this matter with Gorou Zuo, this matter is too strange, it makes people quite worried!" ”

After speaking, Oda Nobutada glanced at Sabei, who was silent, and then said to Tsuda Nobusumi, "What does Shichibei think of this?" ”

"Young master, I think that before Takeda Katsuyori set fire to the rice grain in his family, he urged the Kiso family to produce food in advance, even if it is a coincidence, it is really unsettling, and I think that the Takeda family is very likely to launch the next round of offensive against the family!" Tsuda Nobusumi excitedly finished pouring out the words in his chest, and then turned to Oda Nobutada

suggested: "I also hope that the young master will send a new 1,000 troops to assist in the construction..."

"No way!" Niwa Nagahide on the side directly interrupted Tsuda Nobusumi's words, and then bowed his head to Oda Nobutada and said: "Young master, if the Takeda family suddenly attacks, and most of the family's army is repairing and defending the small bar, won't the family face a catastrophe?" I hope the young master will think twice! ”

Nobusumi Tsuda, who was interrupted from speaking, did not speak, but looked at Sabei, who bowed his head and was silent. Oda Nobutada and Niwa Nagahide, who were thinking about it, also followed Tsuda Nobusumi's gaze to Sabei at this time.

At this time, Sabei seemed to be asleep, with his head down and motionless. Oda Nobutada coughed and said to Sabei, "How does Sabei think the family should prepare for the next round of the Takeda family's offensive at the moment?" ”

After a few breaths of Oda Nobutada's words, Sabei looked up at the three people in front of him, and finally his gaze fell on Oda Nobutada.

"Young master, I think that at this time, the family should send a special team to raid the grain transportation team of the Kiso family!"

After Sabei's words landed, the three people in the room asked at the same time, "How do you bypass the Takeda Army along the way?" ”

"Naturally, the ground attendants of the military East Mino will lead the way!"

"And who is the Einsatzgruppen?"

"Composed of twenty soldiers, three hundred elite samurai and standing guards."

"Okay, Sabei, you're going to be the general of the Einsatzgruppen."

Speaking of this, Sabei got up and asked Oda Nobutada in front of him: "Young master, when will the Kiso family transport grain?" ”

Oda Nobutada replied seriously after hearing this: "I will immediately send someone to inquire about the news again, and before there is any definite news, you will first select the personnel of the special team!" ”

However, just after three days of careful preparations, the ground attendants and ninjas who were in charge of observing the movements of the Takeda army brought the news of the Takeda army's eastward retreat. While everyone who heard the news was still indulging in the excitement of the Takeda Army's withdrawal, Sabei and Tsuda Nobusumi were ordered to lead 4,000 troops to pursue the Takeda Army retreating eastward, leaving more than 3,000 troops to defend Tangdong Castle.

Sabei and Tsuda Nobusumi were cautious along the way, for fear of falling into the Takeda family's fishing and no ambush, but the Oda army was basically unimpeded along the way. Until the two of them approached the Akechi Castle with the strength of the 3,000 army, Sabei watched the Takeda Ling military flag on the city still fluttering high, and the appearance of the Suwa Damyojin military flag made Tsuda Nobusumi even more shocked.

When Takeda Katsuyori appeared in front of Sabei and Tsuda Nobusumi and others wearing a maroon head and a crimson upright Takeda diamond pattern headband, it made Tsuda Nobusumi look at Sabei nervously for a while and said, "Take... Tian Jun... There is no retreat, we are in the middle of the plan... Finish! ”

Just as Tsuda Nobusumi was about to organize the Imperial Rear Army to defend against the Takeda Army, Takeda Katsuyori, who had come out on horseback, shouted to Sabei not far away: "Mingwei Xuanxin! I won this battle! ”

Then Takeda Katsuyori took a large naginata with a broken shaft from the hand of his attendant, and then said to the Sabei in front of him: "You rescued Tokugawa Ieyasu from me the previous time, and this time I will also follow your tactics!" ”

After speaking, Takeda Katsuyori threw the big naginata knife in his hand to the ground and said to the army behind him: "Follow me to attack the Oda army!" ”

After listening to Takeda Katsuyori's words, Sabei's mind flashed through the momentum of Takeda Katsuyori's army in his surprise attack, attacking the waist and abdomen of the long snake formation, and using the terrain to slow down the time of its first and last joint attacks, so that he could rescue Kamihara Yasumasa from Takeda Katsuyori's army.

At this time, Sabei finally reacted and said to Tsuda Nobusumi on the side: "It's not good, the young master is in danger!" Tsuda Nobusumi immediately reacted when he heard this, and after the two looked at each other, they immediately confirmed their respective tasks.

Tsuda Nobusumi hurriedly took his horse and returned to Tangdong Castle with 3,000 troops, while Sabei led a mixed army of 1,000 behind him to resist the attack of the Takeda army. The Takeda Army, which swarmed from Akechi Castle, instantly broke through the first line of defense set up by Sabei, and the timid Ashigaru began to flee aimlessly after the line was breached.

After taking advantage of the ashigaru to reduce the momentum of the Takeda family's charge and delay it for some time, Sabei used the strength of his descendants to build a hollow phalanx with the strength of 300 troops. Just when Sabei and his subordinates were fighting with the Takeda army that surrounded him with mainstream blades such as three guns, naginatas, and short guns, Tsuda Nobusumi also hurried all the way to Tangdong Castle.

However, after Tsuda Nobusumi rushed back to Tangdong Castle, he looked at the crowd of people immersed in joy in Tangdong Castle, and suddenly realized that Sabei was in danger. After sending someone to report the situation to Oda Nobutada, Tsuda Nobusumi once again led an army of 3,000 to rush towards Akechi Castle.

Sabei was holding his naginata and retreating cautiously, the white breath exhaled from his mouth made the wise city in front of him a little more illusory, and the blood in the air made the wise city a little more real. After hearing the sound of horses' hooves behind him, Sabei turned around and saw the Tsuda Nobusumi army with the Oda butterfly pattern.

Just when Tsuda Nobusumi led the army felt that the Wise Castle was under the city, the Takeda army had already withdrawn from the battle and retreated to the wise castle in time. What remained outside the Wise Castle were nearly 400 corpses of the Oda Army and more than 300 corpses of the Takeda Army, as well as the remaining 200 or so Zuobei Army.

The Takeda Ling Banner on the Wise Castle was still fluttering, and Takeda Katsuyori shouted to Tsuda Nobusumi and Sabei under the castle: "Our army has retreated, please pursue the Oda army!" After speaking, Takeda Katsuyori said to Sabei again: "Mingwei Xuanxin, he is really a person who cannot be despised like Oda Nobutada, your standing combat strength is good, next time let you see the elite of your own family!" ”

Takeda then vanished from the walls of Wise Castle, leaving hundreds of arrows whizzing out.
