"Ahh The forces of the Matsudaira family and the Oda family outside Odaka Castle are fighting each other.

Originally, Matsudaira Motoyasu wanted to use 110 horses and 450 horses to transport grain to Dataka City at night. As a result, because the target was too big, it was discovered by the Oda family, and Sakuma Moriyage led 700 men to block the way of the Matsudaira army. Matsudaira Motoyasu had no choice but to command the army to meet the Oda army, and when he approached the enemy position, he divided the team into three, with the grain transport team in the center and the combat team on both sides, wanting to directly break through the defense of the Oda army.

Crackling, the spears of the two armies were flapping each other, and Matsudaira Motoyasu was riding on a horse in the middle army, watching the military momentum in front of him.

"My lord, the Oda Army General in front of me is Sakuma University, and since he has just received three hundred reinforcements, his morale is now high, and it seems that Sakai-sama will not be able to break through the enemy's gun formation for a while." Ishikawa was reporting on the battle situation.

"Send an order to Koheita to increase the frequency of attacks and break through the enemy's gun formation as soon as possible." Matsudaira Motoyasu looked at the sky and felt that it had darkened a lot.

"Yes." Sakai Tadaji, who received the order from the front, immediately issued an order for the whole army to assault, and the left front Sakakihara Tadanao and the right front Honda Tadashi led the ashigaru to press forward step by step, pressing the Oda army to retreat step by step.

"Steady! Steady! Slow down! Slow down! Sakuma shouted loudly, seeing that the front was about to collapse, Mikawa's samurai were indeed brave, and they kept attacking the Oda army in the lead.

"Good! Worthy of being the samurai of my Mikawas! Matsudaira Motoyasu slapped his thigh.

"Report! Lord! The big thing was not good, Oda Genban led the Wasatsu people to surround from behind. A horse in a hurry came to report.

"What! So fast! "Matsudaira Motoyasu didn't expect Washizu's reinforcements to be so fast, the original plan was to enter the city quickly and transport grain and grass, but now it seems that there will be a fierce battle.

"Report! The lord, Sakai-sama, received news that the Oda army suddenly stabilized its position and once again fought against the main army. "Another piece of bad news.

"It is worthy of the Oda family's battle-hardened Sakuma University, this hand retreats as advances, making the family think that the other party is exhausted, but in fact, it is delaying time, waiting for reinforcements, and avoiding the attrition of frontal conflicts." Ishikawa said calmly, as if it had nothing to do with him. "My lord, since you can't do anything, let's evacuate the battle before we are completely surrounded."

"Order the small camel team to retreat immediately, Xiao Heitai leads the headquarters to the rear hall, retreat!" Matsudaira Motoyasu was not verbose, and gave the order to withdraw the troops, and the Matsudaira army fought and withdrew from the battle.

"Sakuma-sama, I'm sorry, it's a pity that I didn't succeed in leaving Matsudaira in Mikawa because I came down late." The two armies of the Oda family converged, and Oda Hidetoshi and Sakuma stood side by side.

"Haha, Lord Oda is polite, you came at the right time, you don't know how brave Mikawa's samurai is, and he almost couldn't parry it, and he broke through." Sakuma gave a salute on his horse, and then said, "Tonight, the Matsudaira army is trying to transport grain into Otaka Castle, and it seems that the Imagawa family ancestors have arrived, and the main camp should not be far away." If you are affected by a high tide at night, then you must act tomorrow morning. You can't go wrong! ”

"Well, report to the lord right away, and let the lord prepare early." Oda Hidetoshi also realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately sent someone to Cheongju Castle.

In the assessment room of Kiyoshu Castle, the retainers of the Oda family were still arguing endlessly, but Oda Nobunaga sat on the main seat and did not say a word until he received a report from Oda Hidetoshi, and finally used the sentence "It's late at night, everyone go home and rest." "The whole military discussion is over.

Hosokawa Nobumoto left the castle tower and walked back and entered Oda Nobunaga's apartment.

"It seems that the decisive battle is tomorrow, and I have already arranged for Liang Tian Massatsu to spy on the location of Imagawa Yoshimoto, and then carry out the beheading operation based on the intelligence." Oda Nobunaga beckoned and ordered the little surname to bring a few bottles of sake. "Who's out there? Come in. ”

Hosokawa Nobumoto opened his mouth, wanting to explain that he had already placed personnel to monitor Imagawa Yoshimoto, but after thinking about it, he was too wide, and now he was not even the lord of the city, and the stall spread out was so big, maybe it wasn't very appropriate.

"Yes!" On duty today are Hashisuke Hasegawa, Shigekyu Iwamuro, Yazaburo Kato, Yoshiyuki Sawaki, and Kyokyo Yamaguchi.

"Come on, drink with me." After speaking, Oda Nobunaga picked up the wine cup in front of him and poured himself a drink, and Hosokawa Nobumoto and other six people and Nohime drank with him.

"Kill!" "Burn!" The Imagawa army under Teramoto Castle in Chita County was burning and looting, and suddenly the Teramoto Castle was on fire.

"Matsudaira-sama, did you say that the Oda Army would come?" The one who spoke was Hattori Tomota, a group of monks who had come to greet Imagawa Yoshimoto, and this time he led 20 ships to land at the mouth of the river on the south side of Ōtaka Castle, numbering about 400 people.

"Don't worry, Hattori-sama, it will be, and the merit of this battle will definitely be reported to the lord, and the credit will be half of yours." Matsudaira Ieyasu looked at the firelight in front of him, and said with a hideous face, he can not only endure it, but also be ruthless enough.

"Kill!" "Ahh Jingle, a group of people rushed over from the shore, and those holding wild swords fought with the Imagawa army.

"It's the Wasuka Koroku of the Kawa Annex!" Hattori looked at a bearded samurai in the distance.

"Oh? Does Hattori-sama know him? "I didn't wait for the Oda army to come, but a group of people from the country came, which was completely unexpected by Matsudaira Motoyasu.

"Of course, speaking of which, I still have a lot of fate with him, and I made a deal with him last year, you know, they control the Kiso River, and if you want to transport the river, you have to find them." Hattori Tomosada explained.

"Then they'll be handed over to you." Matsudaira Motoyasu heard the sound of the words, and someone shared the natural happiness.

"Well, Matsudaira-sama, you can see that if they are destroyed in this battle, the Kiso River will be mine. Ha ha! Hattori Yuding pulled out the knife at his waist and grinned cruelly.

"Little Liu! Long time no see! Hattori Tomota licked the blade, twisted his neck and said gloomily.

"How~~ Isn't this Hattori-sama? When did you start this kind of business? Wasuka Masakatsu's eyes narrowed, and he said in an unkind tone.

"Hehe~~ People die for money, and birds die for food. The good price offered by Lord Jibu naturally needs someone to support it. Hattori Tomosadi slowly retreated, beckoning his men to attack Wasuka Masakatsu, he knew that he was not Wasuka Masaka's opponent.

"Humph! Coward, I'm afraid you won't spend this money. Wasuka Masakatsu didn't talk nonsense anymore, and led his men to rush forward with a knife.

"Drink!" "Hah!" The people and horses between the Kawashima and Hattori monks are comparable, and they are all bandits who lick knives all year round.
