Chapter 239: Dinghai City Anti-Encirclement Battle (2)

"Three days ago, Takeda Shingen led his army across the Tenryu River and approached Hamamatsu Castle. Towards noon, the Takeda army suddenly changed the direction of its march on its way south along the Akiba Road, and the large army turned to Himeji Road and began to move north. Honda Masanobu unfolded a notebook in his hand, which was a record of the battle situation he had stayed up all night to rush out.

"At noon, the Tokugawa main hall received a tip from the Takeda family that they had moved and judged that the Takeda family had no intention of attacking Hamamatsu Castle, so they led their troops out of the castle and prepared to attack the back of the Takeda army."

"Out of the city to fight? Didn't the lord let the Tokugawa Palace hold out? "Hosokawa Nobumoto didn't understand why Tokugawa Ieyasu didn't defend the castle and went to fight a field battle with the Takeda family? You must know that the Takeda family has the world's best red cavalry.

Yes, the exact reason is not yet clear. Therefore, in the evening, the two sides met at Mikatahara, and the Tokugawa army took the lead in attacking Yamayama Masakei, the vanguard of the Takeda army, and successfully defeated the Yama Prefecture team. Then, Ishikawa Shumasa, the vanguard of the Tokugawa family, began to attack the left formation of the Takeda army, Oyamada Mochishige, and his retainer Goyamasaku Sakuzuo Masashige took the lead in breaking into the enemy formation, defeating the Oyamada team and capturing more than 200 people. The Tokugawa family won the game by a small margin. ”

The Takeda family immediately launched a counterattack, and reinforcements were rushed from Baba Nobubo, and the Tokugawa army Okubo Tadashi also entered the chaos, and the two armies fought fiercely. In the melee, although the Mikawa samurai Sakurai Katsuji won the first rank and won the first credit. However, many of the Mikawa samurai were killed in battle, such as Arakawa Shitaro, Honda Shiroku, Kawai Matachiro, and Tamon Etsuna. The tide of battle became more and more unfavorable for the Tokugawa family. ”

In order to turn the tide of the war, the Tokugawa family Sakai Tadaji left the pack team in charge of guarding and led the army to attack the Yonekura Shigetsu team. However, Takeda Shingen ordered Takeda Nobutoyo, Anayama Nobuyo, Naito Masatyo and others to detour behind the Tokugawa army and attack the Tokugawa army from both sides in front and back. In the end, the Tokugawa army was defeated by the powerful attack of the Takeda army, and the Tokugawa main hall and his Shigetoshiro fled to Hamamatsu, and my Oda family's Hirate Honhide-sama was killed. ”

"Did Lord Tie die in battle..."Although Hosokawa Nobumoto had known his ending for a long time, he couldn't help but sigh a little.

"Yes! It is said that when the defeat of the Tokugawa clan was first revealed, Sakuma Nobumori-sama was the first to retreat, resulting in the defeat of the Tokugawa Daise-sama after continuing the battle between Tokugawa Daise-sama and the Tokugawa main hall. In the process of escaping, because he was not familiar with the geographical location near Hamamatsu Castle, he was killed by the Takeda army who caught up. "Honda Masanobu reported what he knew.

"Hey... Hirata Fanxiu is the master craftsman who passed away, and the third son of Hirate Masahide, the lord must be very angry. Hosokawa Nobumoto closed his eyes, he still admired the old man who admonished him with death.

"That's... Will the main hall punish Sakuma-sama? "There is such a big mistake, someone needs to be responsible.

"No, it is still necessary for Lord Sakuma to sit in Owari Chita County and stop the Takeda army from continuing to advance." Hosokawa Nobugen is familiar with history and knows that Sakuma Nobumori at this time will only be slightly reprimanded by Oda Nobunaga, but he will still be entrusted with important tasks. However, when he was exiled by Oda Nobunaga many years later, one of the charges was to "abandon the panhide".

"Lord Akikan, after the victory of the Takeda family in Mikatahara, did not attack Hamamatsu Castle, the residence of the Tokugawa main hall. Instead, he advanced west at Zhuda Nosaka and attacked in the direction of Mikawa Province, and now he should have surrounded Noda Castle. ”

"Got it, Yahachiro, go down and rest, don't overwork yourself." Hosokawa Nobumoto waved his hand, signaling that Honda Masanobu could go out, and then sat alone in the house.

"Takeda Shingen Shangluo, a whole year earlier than in history. This means that his current physical condition is much better than in history, and there is a high probability that there will be no more sudden death on the way to Luo. "Nobumoto Hosokawa can feel that history has begun to change dramatically.

the retreat from Kanegasaki, the bizarre incident of "a bag of beans"; In the battles of Noda and Fukushima, the Maori family entered the war in advance and almost put him to death; And now, General Yoshiaki is self-reliant, Takeda Kamiraku, Asakura and Asai go south, Tango participates in the war, and large and small rebellions break out at the same time, etc.

"Today's Takeda family... What are you going to do? "History has changed, and Hosokawa Nobumoto doesn't know what will happen next.

"If you look at the current situation, Oda Nobunaga is trapped in Omi Province and can't get out, and I am in the quagmire of Gyeonggi, Tokugawa Ieyasu has been completely disabled. Then, there will be no one who can stop Takeda Shingen's Kamiraku, and he should be able to successfully capture Mikawa Province and advance to Owari Province. When the time comes, it will be up to Sakuma Nobumori to stop him. But... Is this really going to happen? "The more Hosokawa Nobugen thinks about it, the more wrong it becomes, this obvious truth is known to everyone, will Takeda Shingen follow this script?

Knock knock! In the early morning, the thunder of war drums sounded, and Hosokawa Nobumoto personally led Sekihara Bei, Dinghai Bei, and the Hanoi people of Miyoshi Yoshitsugu out of the city to fight a decisive battle with the rebel Nerai.

Probably because the rebels felt that under such a division of troops and defense, sooner or later they would be attacked by Hosokawa Nobumoto one by one. Rather than this, it is better to join forces in a decisive battle, or you can turn defeat into victory.

"Array! Crane Wing Array! Hosokawa Nobumoto commanded the army to form a crane wing formation, with iron cannons and bows in front, and every hundred people were in a formation, and each formation was arranged in a dense cross, forming the first formation of the first formation.

The second formation in the back is the Kawachi group of Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, arranged in a left and right wings that are spread out like cranes. The third formation is a small winged formation, with Sekihara Bei on the left and Dinghai Bei on the right.

Finally, there is the location of Hosokawa Nobumoto's main camp, relying on the Dinghai Castle behind it, with the flag-book samurai and ninja guards as the escort, and the mounted samurai team on standby on both sides.

"Shoot!" Tsuda commanded the Iron Artillery Corps to take the lead in the attack.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! The dense artillery fire hit the iron artillery team of Genlaizhong, who just stepped into the firing range.

"Ahh Poof! The muffled sound of projectiles entering the body, and the painful screams came and went.

"Shoot back! Shoot back! "The Yamada Lotus Pond of Fan River Temple commanded five hundred iron cannons to fight back.

Bang bang bang! The iron artillery of both sides was loud, and although the number was equal, the Hosokawa iron cannon had a tactical advantage, and the iron cannon was also an improved variety, and the rate of fire was slightly faster, so the situation was gradually controlled.

"Archery!" Miyoshi Bowashigaru also arrived at the battlefield and began to shoot arrows frequently.

Burst! "Ahh Under the double blow of bows and iron cannons, the iron artillery team gradually became weaker. Due to the lack of bows and arrows and the lack of long-range strikes, it is obviously not enough to rely on the iron artillery team alone.

"The Iron Artillery retreats! Gun foot light step forward! Rush! "The rebel Saga Aka's Izuhara Tomome replaced the iron artillery team and rushed over to meet the long-range attack of the Hosokawa and Miyoshi coalition forces. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
