Chapter 312: High Heaven Divine City Assessment (Part II)
After thinking for a moment, Sakai Tadaji got up and said to Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was looking around at everyone: "My lord, for the sake of today's plan, you might as well let it advance slowly, create a false impression that our army is not confident enough, induce part of the Takeda army to attack carelessly, and after annihilating it, force Takeda Katsuyori to fight a decisive battle with the main family." β
After speaking, Sakai Tadaji looked at the four generals of Oda again, and asked with a serious expression: "Do you know what tactics Takeda Katsuyori is good at?" β
After the four generals Oda listened to Sakai Tadaji's words, the other three directly threw their eyes on Sabei.
As the person who had fought against Takeda Katsuyori and nominally won the victory, Sabei stood up and bowed his head to Sakai Tadaji and Tokugawa Ieyasu under the gaze of everyone, and said: "I fought with Takeda Katsuyori in Higashimino in Shimo, and Takeda Katsuyori is a man who is good at using ingenuity and tactics flexibly and changeably, which is very predictable; Although Sakai-sama's plan is good, I am afraid that it will not be able to make Takeda Katsuyori attack easily. β
With that, Sabei gestured to Tokugawa Ieyasu again, and then sat back on the horse.
However, after listening to Sabei's words, Tokugawa Ieyasu suddenly laughed and said, "No, no, no, Takeda Katsuyori will definitely send troops to fight his family." As he spoke, Tokugawa Ieyasu pointed the folding fan in his hand to the Higashimino area on the map.
Everyone's eyes fell on the area of Higashimino with the folding fan, and they all understood in an instant, if Higashimino was successfully regained by Oda Nobutada's army, Takeda Katsuyori would not only lose a road to Kamiraku, but also face the Oda army on the border of Minami Shinano.
After everyone reacted, they looked up to look at Tokugawa Ieyasu, only to find that Tokugawa Ieyasu was using the back of the small surname as a backing board on the side, writing what it was.
After a few breaths, Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was a little overexcited, said loudly to the people in front of him: "Once the recovery of Higashimino is successful, Takeda Katsuyori will have to fight a quick decisive battle, and after victory, he will turn his army to Shinano. β
After speaking, Tokugawa Ieyasu laughed and said, "We can't afford it, but Takeda Katsuyori can't afford to wait either!" β
Sabei looked at Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was overly excited, and was also a little worried about Oda Nobutada, who led the army to the east. After all, soldiers are impermanent, and if Oda Nobutaka doesn't give up his heart to Higashimino, then his future life will not be easy.
Sabei, who walked out of the Tokugawa Ieyasu main camp, glanced back at the rather lively Tokugawa monarchy, shook his head with a slight smile, and then returned to the camp where he was stationed.
Early the next morning, while most of the Oritoku coalition was still dreaming, the Banners sent by Tokugawa Ieyasu had already walked to Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was looking at the map, with a letter from Gifu.
After reading the letter, Tokugawa Ieyasu smiled at Sakai Tadaji and Ishikawa Shumasa beside him and said, "The Oda army has just defeated the Takeda army of Higashimino under Akechi Castle, and the defeated Takeda army has already converged on Iwamura Castle, and it is only a matter of time before the castle in the central and eastern part of Mino is recovered!" β
Ishikawa Shumasa frowned after hearing this, and then said to Tokugawa Ieyasu, "My lord, I wonder if the Takeda Army has learned the news?" If Takeda Katsuyori intends to deceive this news, we can take the lead in spreading the news of Takeda's defeat among the Takeda army, so that the blow to Takeda's army will be even greater. β
Tokugawa Ieyasu laughed out loud when he heard this, and then instructed Ishikawa Shumasa: "Just do what you say!" β
Ishikawa Shumasa, who had left the Tokugawa Ieyasu main camp with an order, saw Sabei pacing back and forth with his saber outside the main camp.
After the two looked at each other, they immediately bowed their heads to each other, and then the two immediately staggered, each walking in a different direction.
Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was communicating with Sakai Tadaji in the main formation, looked up at Ishikawa Shumasa, who had just walked out of the main formation but turned back, and asked, "Shumasa, why is it so fast?" β
When Ishikawa Shumasa heard this, he walked to Tokugawa Ieyasu and whispered to Tokugawa Ieyasu that he saw Sabei wandering outside the camp, and Tokugawa Ieyasu looked at Ishikawa Shumasa and said, "Could it be that he thinks something is wrong?" β
Hearing this, Ishikawa Shumasa shook his head and said, "My lord, this battle is related to the survival of our family, and we must not be reckless and miscalculated, and despise the combat power of the Takeda Army!" β
The second assessment was held in the excitement of the Oritoku coalition army, Sabei sat in the Tokugawa Ieyasu main formation, his eyes swept over the Tokugawa retainers, and found that today's Tokugawa generals had become extremely restrained, and even Honda Tadakatsu raised the corners of his eyebrows a little, and his expression was serious and he played with the Buddhist beads hanging around his neck, quite a bit of angry King Kong feeling.
After scanning the generals in this formation, Tokugawa Ieyasu stood up and said to the generals: "This battle is related to the survival of my family, and I ask you to put away your frivolity and take seriously the possible upcoming war." β
When they heard this, they immediately got up and agreed, and then sat down with Tokugawa Ieyasu.
After briefly describing the battle at Higashimino, Tokugawa Ieyasu began to lay out the military posture and formation for advancing towards Suruga. Honda Tadakatsu and Kanhara Yasumasa unsurprisingly became the first soldiers, while Okubo Tadashi and Okubo Tadasa, as well as Sabei, became the generals of the 2,000-strong iron artillery team. The rest of the generals were divided into their own formations, escorting Tokugawa Ieyasu, the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces.
Sakuma Nobumori didn't expect that the Oritoku coalition forces would really be combined together, and Sabei would be appointed to command the iron artillery team. So when Tokugawa Ieyasu decided to advance with a fish scale formation, Sakuma Nobumori was not as surprised as Fang Cai.
After listening to Tokugawa Ieyasu's arrangement, Sabei glanced up at Tokugawa Ieyasu, and after seeing Tokugawa Ieyasu's way of talking, he still didn't understand why he chose to advance with the fish scale array.
