Chapter 991: We're Different!
"Takahashi-sama, are you alright?"
On the coast, Yukihide Hazu came to Takahashi's side and asked with a concerned face.
Takahashi Xingjia waved his hand with a pale face, and then said, "What time is it?"
"It's just past noon!"
"It's past noon, which means that the river crossing attack has begun for more than two hours." Takahashi Xingjia secretly calculated, and then said, "Immediately prepare the troops, and the statistics can still move, half an hour!" ”
"Hah!"
"Everyone gathers, counts the personnel who are still capable of fighting, and reports on their own after half an hour!"
As soon as the order was given, the well-trained standing ashigaru went into action. Although they were very unwell, they still unconsciously made uniform movements after long-term training.
Half an hour later, Nobuyuki Takeda, Yukihide Hazu, and others came to Takahashi's side one after another.
"Lord Takahashi, there are still 200 people under your command who can move!" Yukihide Hazu said loudly.
Takeda Nobuyuki also spoke, "There are less than 200 people under his command!" ”
"There are still dozens of people under your command who can participate in the battle!" Yoshino Yoshino also added.
At this time, Kawamura Hidetoki also came to Takahashi's side with a pale face, and replied weakly, "Lord Takahashi, the strength of Takasui Temple Castle is less than 300 people, and there is still the strength to fight, and most of the rest of the ashigaru have fallen to the ground!" ”
This can't be blamed on them, it's really for these people who have lived in inland areas for a long time, and they suddenly go to the rough sea, even if they are offshore, they can't stand the toss.
Takahashi Xingjia and others originally had more than 2,000 troops, but now there are only seven or eight hundred people left to fight. Compared with Takahashi Kojia and others, the situation of the Osaki family and the Kasai family is not much worse, but the territory of the Osaki family and the Kasai family is close to the sea, so many peasants and soldiers have the experience of going to sea, and more than 2,000 peasants and soldiers can have more than 1,000 people left.
"Lord Takahashi, I think we must stop and repair before we can continue marching! With the current situation of our army, there is no combat power at all, and even if it reaches the battlefield, I am afraid it can only help! Hazu Yukihide said at this time.
Takahashi waved his hand, "No." ”
"It's been half a month since the river crossing attack was in a stalemate, and the lord has high hopes for us! The battle has been going on for almost 2 hours, and it can't be delayed any longer! ”
"Hazu-sama, I have appointed you as the military commissioner, and Yoshino-sama will assist you, so you must rush to the battlefield to participate in the battle no matter what!" Takahashi Koke held Yukihide's hand and said expectantly.
Takahashi Xingjia really can't hold on, if it weren't for strong willpower, I'm afraid Takahashi Xingjia would have collapsed on the ground at this time.
Hearing Takahashi's words, Yuzu Yukihide nodded heavily, and then said loudly, "Don't worry, Lord Takahashi, you have a good life and recuperation here, and you will lead the troops to the battlefield to support here!" ”
"Yoshino-sama, Kasaiden, Osakiden, that's all for you!" Yukazu Yukihide saluted Yoshino Yoshino and the others beside him. After all, he is not the general general, but only a temporary agent, and he must have the number of courtesies he should have.
Yoshino Ryoshi hurriedly replied, "Please also ask Hazu-sama for more advice!" ”
"Lots of advice!" Osaki Yoshinao and Kasai Haruyin didn't dare to take a fart in front of the retainers of the Tsugawa family. The two families are now completely dependent on the snort of the Tsugawa family, and even if it is an ordinary retainer of the Tsugawa family, it is not something that the two of them can easily offend.
Takahashi Koke and Takeda Nobuyuki took the seasick two thousand troops to repair on the coast, and Hazu Yukihide left 300 people to take care of them, and then began to walk towards the battlefield with the remaining 1,000 people.
The landing force came ashore near the mouth of the Natori River, and it was also seventy or eighty miles away from the nearest Togo Yoshiyu River crossing army. If you march in a hurry, you may have to wait until late at night to reach the main battlefield.
Yukihide Hazu and the others ran wildly all the way, and although they didn't know the road, it was always right to go upstream along the Natori River.
In the team, the Tsugawa family's ashigaru ran at the front, and the atmosphere was not breathing. And the Osaki family and the Kasai family's Ashigaru are out of breath and have fallen behind for a long time.
Even so, the hearts of Yoshinao Osaki and Haruyin Kasai are also hot!
God can see mercy, this is the first time that the two difficult brothers of the Osaki family and the Kasai family have formed a group to get the Date family! You know, the two families have always been bullied by the Date family, and they never thought that they would have such a proud day.
This feeling is like the mood of RB when he joined the war when he joined the Eight-Nation Alliance, he has always lived in the shadow of his father in the Celestial Empire, and finally one day he will be able to ride on his father's head and, this feeling is really cool!
Although they are all foxes and fake tigers, they do enjoy the fun of participating in it.
"Kasaiden, life is really fickle, who would have thought that the two of us would one day be in the same camp? And they're going to attack Date's house together, haha, it's unbelievable! Sitting in a small sedan chair, Osaki Yoshinao opened the sedan curtain and greeted Kasai Haruyin beside him.
Kasai Qingyin also opened the sedan curtain and replied, "Osaki Hall is proud of the spring breeze now." My aunt married the right guard general, and the Osaki family also rose with it, and it is said that a year ago, the right guard general's hall also played the shogunate's book seal for the Osaki hall to issue the Hashu exploration topic, which is really enviable! ”
"In comparison, the family was also taken away by the shogunate for 100,000 stones! We're still different! Kasai replied a little lonely.
After listening to Kasai Harukin's words, a look of pride appeared on Osaki Yoshinao's face.
If you want to say what is the most correct thing that Yoshinao Osaki has done in his life, then it is probably that he married his aunt to Soji Tsugawa without shame, which was exchanged for the friendship of the Tsugawa family.
Osaki Yoshinao is now not only a shogunate member of the "Oshu Quest", but also a member of the five Upper Michitsu Okumori. It can be said that Yoshinao Osaki's B grid is already at the forefront of the entire RB, and all of this is due to Soji Baizugawa.
This time he went to the Date family, and Osaki Yoshinao pulled out all the family resources of the Osaki family without saying a word. Not only that, but he also took the initiative to take on part of the labor and provided food for the supply and demand of 3,000 people, which was also appreciated by Tsugawa Soji.
Osaki Yoshinao knew that Soharu Tsugawa was a man who did big things, and Okuba was in front of him. Whether the Osaki family can hold the thigh of the Tsugawa family depends on their own attitude, so Osaki Yoshinao can be said to be all kinds of kneeling and licking.
And Kamihime often writes to warn Osaki Yoshinao and ask him to put down his body. After all, the Okuwa region today is no longer the Okuba that was full of people and chaos a few years ago.
Now Okuha, the Tsugawa family is the only one. Those who go along with it prosper, and those who go against it die.
If the Osaki family wants to continue the family name, they must recognize the situation. Obviously, Yoshinao Osaki did just that......
