Tsukahara Moryū did not answer Sanada Yutaka, there are some things he can say to Sanada Yukitaka, because Sanada Yutaka may see these issues more clearly than him, but his own Tao can only be said to the master. smiled: "How do you think the Hojo family will respond to the offensive of Lord Guanling?" ”

Sanada Yutaka saw that Tsukahara Molong was reluctant to answer, but nodded secretly, but he was not sure how the Hojo family would deal with it. "In the face of the encirclement network of the Lord Commander, the Hojo family must divide their troops, defend in multiple ways, and attack one main way, so as to break through each one. But which way is the main attack, I don't know. ”

"Yes, after all, it's only been a few years since the night battle in Heyue, and that tactic of directly smashing the Yellow Dragon may not be used again." Tsukahara Molong shook his head, he also has a lot of shortcomings in this regard. Sanada Yutaka's resourcefulness is mainly in tactics, which the three generations of Sanada in later generations almost took it to the extreme. Tokugawa Ieyasu, Hojo Clan and other daimyo were still played around under the wisdom of the Sanada family, but strategically they were not particularly good at it. In terms of the viciousness of strategic vision, I am afraid that no one in Japan in this era can compare with Oda Nobunaga. To be honest, except for the battle of Barrel Sasama, Oda Nobunaga's previous "imperial expeditions" were lackluster, although he could win by virtue of political skills or directly overpowering people, but in the face of first-class famous generals, he was slightly inferior in tactics.

"I heard that Tamu Mototada, who is in charge of Minami Musashi this time, what kind of person is he?" Tsukahara Molong suddenly asked, people say that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles. Although it was uncertain in which direction the direct legion of Hojo Shiyasu would attack, the candidate for Tamu Mototada was decided. However, Tsukahara Moryū was not familiar with these samurai after all, so he had to consult Sanada Yutaka

Sanada Yutaka touched his chin, "Tamu Mototada is the general of the Hojo family, and he has been following the Hojo clan Yasu to fight in the east and west, and he has mostly played the role of a military advisor, and he has won the trust of the Hojo clan. During the night battle of Kawagoe, Hojo Shiyasu broke through too violently, and he even privately ordered the withdrawal of troops and recalled Hojo Shiyasu, but Hojo Shiyasu did not blame him at all. The tactics are flexible and changeable, although the name of bravery is not obvious, but his strategy is very feared, and he is known as the first wise general of the Hojo family. ”

"Oh? I heard that the Hojo family has five color preparations, and he is the leader of the black preparations, right? ”

"Kurobei?" Sanada Yutaka was stunned at first, and then smiled at the corner of his mouth: "It's okay, but it's all called in private." His subordinates are indeed wearing black armor, and they are ......" Speaking of this, Sanada Yutaka's expression became serious: "Heibei has always been called a person's preparation. ”

"Is he the only one?"

"Of course not, but it means that Heibei is united and as flexible as a person under the command of Tamu Motozhong. Hojo five colors, yellow is the strongest, green is the most, white is like a mountain, red is like fire, and black is only one. There are not many people in any reserve team, but it is definitely a strong team that should not be underestimated. ”

While the two were chatting, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and as the sound of horses' hooves approached, there was a commotion. Tsukahara Molong turned his head suspiciously, only to see a samurai with tattered armor and a bloodstained face that could no longer see clearly, riding a horse and galloping wildly on the road.

"That's ...... Oops! Sanada jumped almost instantly.

"Duomu Yuanzhong has already attacked?" Tsukahara Moryū couldn't help but be surprised, the mobilization speed of the Hojo family was not faster than that of the Uesugi family, and it can be said that both sides did not fully gather troops, and Tamu Mototada actually took the initiative to start a war. At the moment, he didn't dare to slack off, and began to gather the members of Mo Longbei to prepare for the attack.

It was not until the afternoon that Uesugi Kenmasa's side discussed the results with the ministers, and issued an order: everyone immediately packed their bags and set off for Musashi Matsuyama Castle tomorrow morning, while Kohata Kenshige led 5,000 men to the rescue first. It wasn't until Tamu Mototada gathered his forces at Kawagoe Castle that he led his army to attack Musashi Matsuyama Castle in Northern Musashi, and it was from Musashi Matsuyama Castle that the samurai stood out for help. No one expected that Tamu Mototada would take the initiative to attack when his strength was at an absolute disadvantage, and once he captured Musashi Matsuyama Castle, it would be difficult for the Uesugi army to step into Minami Musashi.

"Damn weather!" Soon after the departure, snow began to fall in the sky, which, although not large, made the road muddy and interfered with the pace of the march considerably. However, when he thought of the Tamu Motozhong who was besieging the city, he was probably also sad at the moment, and Kohata Kenshige's mood was much better, and he shouted to the people behind him: "Tell everyone, speed up, those poor creatures in Musashi Matsuyama Castle are still waiting for us to save!" Let the Hojo family see the military might of my samurai in Ueno Province!! ”

"Hey! Hey! Oh!!! "I have to say that the samurai of Ueno Province are indeed of very high quality, and after receiving the order, even in such an environment, the speed of the march is still increased.

"Go to those mountains to reconnoitre, although it's raining, don't be ambushed." Kohata Kenshige admonished that although he has a rough side as a samurai, it doesn't mean that he is a fool without a head, how can he be reckless if he can succeed as the first samurai of Ueno Province at a young age.

After the 5,000-strong army passed through the most ambushed section of the road on the muddy road, Kohata Kenshige gradually relaxed, and it was not far away that Musashi Matsuyama Castle was gone, and it seemed that there was no ambush. "The Red Reserve Team stepped forward to prepare, I want to surprise that guy from Duomu Yuanzhong!" Kohata Ken's eyes were cold, looking at the brightly lit Hojo family camp in the night. At this moment, a sudden change occurred.

In the darkness, there was a sudden earth-shattering shouting of killing, as if there were infinite men and horses to kill, although they had not yet touched, but the peasants and soldiers were already frightened. "Don't panic!! There weren't many people in the Hojo family at all!! Kohata Kenshige roared like a beast, desperately trying to stabilize the morale of the army, once the army's heart was disturbed, this battle would not have to be fought.

But the Hojo Army apparently did not give him these time, and spears pierced out of the darkness, and since there was no moonlight, the two sides were in chaos in the darkness, fighting each other. At first, they were able to stand shoulder to shoulder with each other, but as the battle became more and more intense, almost everyone was scattered, and as soon as they saw a figure, they went up and stabbed, and the battlefield became more and more chaotic.

"Cut!" Although Kohata Kenshige couldn't see it, he understood that the chaotic battle in such darkness was too dangerous, and many people were expected to be killed by his own people, so he immediately ordered Kohata Akashige to abandon the enemy around him and rush towards the Hojo Army camp. "Everyone assaulted the Hojo Army camp!! Those who hesitate are killed on the spot!! As the order was gradually issued, the Kohata army gradually stabilized and rushed towards the Hojo Army camp.

"Lord !!" A samurai dressed in black armor hurriedly rushed into the big tent, "Kohata Kenshige, coming this way!" ”

"yes, I see." A hint of surprise flashed in Duomu Yuanzhong's eyes, and the night attack he arranged was actually resolved in this way.

Musashi Matsuyama Castle, which was somewhat damaged by the siege of the castle, was also alarmed by the earth-shattering shouts of killing, and the samurai ashigaru went up to the castle to take a look. I saw a group of cavalry break into the camp of the Hojo Army, break through the left and kill the right, and the Hojo family was defeated.

Seeing this, the lord of Musashi Matsuyama Castle, Namba Tiankeihiro, was overjoyed, and it must be Kohata Akabei of Ueno Province who had such combat power, and immediately ordered the castle to be opened and attacked the Hojo Army with this cavalry.

However, after the defenders of Musashi Matsuyama Castle were exhausted, a group of troops covered in black armor and hidden in the night took the opportunity to touch the city.

Namba Tian Keihiro had already led the army into the Hojo Army camp at this moment, and suddenly found that the Hojo Army camp was empty, and when he was puzzled, a cavalry uniformly wearing red armor rushed in murderously, and cut people when they saw them. Namba Tian Keihiro was shocked, and when he understood the plan, he hurriedly shouted, "Lord Kohata misunderstood!! But by the time the two sides calmed down, there were already a lot of corpses on the ground, but none of them belonged to the Hojo family.
