Chapter 524: The Raid Begins

Izumiyama Naoyoshi had already prepared in advance, just waiting for the order from the southern Harusa and the signal from Naotsuna of the Tsunato to attack. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This is a special explanation from Harusasa in the south, and it is necessary to wait for Naotsuna Izumiyama to start fighting with the Tsugawa family's horseback team before Naoyoshi Izumiyama can be dispatched.

Southern Harimasa knew very well that if he couldn't attract the Tsugawa family's horseback team, even if Izumiyama Naoyoshi could successfully rush to Asamino and launch a surprise attack on Tsugawa Soji's main camp. However, the Tsugawa family's cavalry team will also return to help soon, and Nanbu Harusasa does not think that the 500 people led by Izumiyama Naoyoshi can block the charge of the Tsugawa family's cavalry team.

Therefore, Southern Harusama sent a cavalry team to rush into the battlefield in advance, with the purpose of luring out the Tsugawa family's cavalry team and firmly containing it. In this case, when Izumiyama Naoyoshi rushed to Asamino to carry out a surprise attack on the Tsugawa family's main camp, the Tsugawa family's horseback team would be powerless even if they wanted to come back to help.

I have to say that this arrangement of the southern Harimasa is very appropriate, weakening the strength of the defense of the Tsugawa family's main camp to the greatest extent, making the surprise attack of Izumiyama Naoyoshi more advantageous.

.............

On the banks of the Takekawa River, in a bamboo forest less than a mile from the Kitakami River.

Naoyoshi Izumiyama is urging the 500 people in front of him to board the bamboo raft that he has carefully selected from Ashigaru.

"My lord! Lord Kushiwa has already attacked, and now he has already fought with the Tsugawa family's horseback team! At this time, an ashigaru came to the side of Izumiyama Naoyoshi and said slowly.

"The main hall let's attack!"

"Good!"

"Now that the agreed signal has come, it's time for us to strike!" Izumiyama Naoyoshi said loudly.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Head east into the Kitakami River and go ashore in Asamino! Paddle as fast as you can, and be sure to reach Asamino before dark! Izumiyama said excitedly.

"Yes! My lord! Then, under the cover of the bamboo forests along the Takekawa River, the five hundred elite ashigaru quickly rowed towards the north and the river. And all this, the Tsugawa family has no idea...........

..........

Wars are long and short.

It's been almost an hour since the southern family launched a "general attack", and on the battlefield, whether it is the strength of the Tsugawa family or the ashigaru of the southern family, they are almost unable to hold on.

The Tsugawa family's troops, such as the Tohi family team and the Hachibai Dao team, have been withdrawn to the rear for more than half an hour, but Rao is like this, and the ashigaru of the Tsugawa family still can't bear it.

"Miki-sama! Why did the ashigaru of the southern family pounce on us one by one as if they were desperate! Nagano Masabo slashed a southern family who rushed towards him with a knife, and then said to Miki Naogo in front of him with a sweaty face.

Miki Naogo quickly pulled out the knife inserted in the body of a southern family ashigaru, and then said, "The southern family has been recuperating for so many days, and the physical strength of the ashigaru is not comparable to the family that has just experienced a rapid march!" ”

"It's less than an hour before dark, and the enemy is about to retreat!" Looking at the strength of the southern family, whose offensive had slowed down significantly, Miki Naogo said with an affirmative expression.

Nagano Masabo continued, "Miki-sama, have you noticed that something seems wrong with the forces of the southern family? ”

"Huh?" Miki Naogo said suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

Nagano Masabo shook his head and said helplessly, "I can't tell what's wrong with it, but I always feel a little abnormal." ”

"The strength of the family has all rushed out, but the southern family seems to still have reserves." Nagano Masabo said thoughtfully.

Miki Naogo looked at him, and then said, "That's true." The number of troops sent by the southern family on the battlefield is no more than 1,800 people, and the number of troops sent by the southern family this time is about 3,000 people. ”

"It seems that the southern family has not used all its strength!" Miki Naogo said slowly.

"Alas! Let's ignore all of this for now, or fight off these enemies in front of you first! Nagano Masabo waved his hand.

"Good! Why don't you have a competition with Nagano-sama and see who gets the most heads! ”

"Good! Those who lose, please drink! ”

"It's a deal!"

..........

In the eastern part of Asamino, on the bank of the North Kamigawa River.

Izumiyama Naoyoshi and the others hurried to finally go ashore, allowing the Ashigaru to repair for a while, and Izumiyama Naoyoshi continued to march with Ashigaru.

"Izumiyama-sama!" At this time, a man in a black ninja suit suddenly burst out from behind a tree, and was so frightened that Naoyoshi Izumiyama almost swung his knife directly.

"Izumiyama-sama, the villain is a ninja of my own family!" The ninja-looking man saluted Izumiyama, then pointed in a direction and said, "The location of Tsugawa Soji's main camp has been discovered, and it is 2 miles northwest of this place. ”

"Good! It's hard work. Quanshan Naoyoshi said in surprise, it's really sleepy and someone sent a pillow, which is worthy of the ninjas of the family.

"Everybody come with me! Soji Tsugawa's main formation is ahead, everyone hurry up! Naoyoshi Izumiyama turned his head and whispered to the ashigaru behind him.

Hearing that Soji Tsugawa's main camp was in front of him, the eyes of the ashigaru people behind Naoyoshi Izumiyama were full of anticipation and excitement. This is the famous Eagle of the Immortal North, Tsugawa Soji, if he can be lucky to get it, then his reputation will definitely resound throughout Okuha! Almost all of them thought so.

"Don't make a sound, follow me!"

"Hah!"

.........

On a small hillside in the northwest corner of Asamino, in the Tsugawa family's main camp, Tsugawa Soji was getting the latest battlefield information from an envoy.

"My lord! The enemy Ishigami Nobubo and Nancho Yoshi were routed by Tsumaki-sama and Yagyu-sama, and they had already withdrawn from the battle. ”

"However, in terms of the main battlefield, the front and second formations of the main family have also begun to be repaired in the rear, and it is currently Miki-sama and Nagano-sama maintaining the front."

"The forces of the Akao-sama and other wealthy clans were firmly blocked by the enemy on the right flank, and they were unable to support the central battlefield. At present, the southern family has rejoined the battle with the forces of the defeated Katsumaki family and the Kuji family, and Miki-sama and Nagano-sama are currently in a difficult situation. "I kept telling some of the latest information on the battlefield.

Soji Tsugawa nodded slowly, although there was no anxiety on his face, but there was no trace of joy.

The current situation of the battle is not what Tsugawa Soji wants to see!

Originally, Tsugawa Soji wanted to drag it out until the whole army of the southern family attacked, and concentrated the superior forces to defeat the southern family in one fell swoop.

As a result, the front line of the southern family and the front line of the Tsugawa family were evenly divided, and no one took advantage. In this way, the battlefield in front of it has become like a magnet, constantly attracting the troops of the two families to rush here.

Now if the Tsugawa family wants to win, it can only be up to the two families to see who can hold out to the end, of course, if the battle can be ended before dark today. Thinking of this, Soji Tsugawa unconsciously looked up at the sky that had begun to darken.

However, what Tsugawa Soji didn't know was that a force of 500 people from the southern family was rapidly approaching his main formation.........
