"Okay, let's gossip aside, let's get down to business." In the staff headquarters, Hosokawa Nobumoto patted the eaves of the sand table with a folding fan, and the audience suddenly fell silent.

"While those who explore Atsuga Shizan... It hasn't come back yet, however, people from other places have returned. Bao Jun, tell me about it. "Hosokawa Nobugen actually named his surname, it can be seen that he wants to promote Baojun, after all, if Zhengqing and Baozheng are dead, then... The thing can only be handed over to Bao Jun.

"Yes, my lord!" Hattori took a step forward, took the baton, and prepared to start explaining on the sand table. But deep down, it's... Betrayed by his slightly trembling hand.

"My lord, my lord, we have specially crossed the Abukuma River and explored this empty area." Hattori Yasutoshi adjusted his mind and led everyone to a new sand table: "This is the latest simulated topographic map established after exploration. ”

"This big ditch is the Abukuma River." Hattori Hojun moves back and forth with his baton, which is a large V shape.

"This is Mt. Atsu-Shiga, this is Bentenzan, and there is a checkpoint between the two mountains that is the Shimo-Shin Stone, which is heavily guarded by the capital. Shimoishi is the northern entrance to the Fukushima Basin. Hattori began to explain these key points, and these three places are in the form of a triangle, which is connected to the previous Abu Kuma River, and it happens to be a diamond-shaped pattern.

"That is to say, if our army crosses the river, we will attack any point, and we will be attacked from the other two places. And... There is not much room for us to maneuver, and it is a backwater battle ... It affects the performance of our army very much. "Masanobu Honda saw the beauty of this line at a glance, and the defenders were able to both echo each other from afar and psychologically oppress the attackers.

"Hmm... Is there any sign of Soji Tsugawa? These three key points... Where is he? Hosokawa Nobumoto had a headache when he looked at this layout, this must be the established decisive battle venue, just this defense line that is digging and building a city pass, it will cost a lot of manpower and material resources.

"Back to the lord, I didn't find out, but according to my subordinates, it should be in Bentian Mountain." Hattori replied respectfully.

"Oh? Why? Hosokawa Nobumoto asked very carefully, because whether the information is correct or not is related to the success or failure of a battle.

"My lord, although my uncle didn't make it back... However, the surrounding landforms under Mt. Atsushiga have been transmitted back in advance. Please see the detailed topographic map here. Hattori led the group to a small sand table, which was a topographic map of the structure with the mountain as the main body.

"This mountain is Mt. Atsu-Shiga, also known as Mt. Atsugashi, and there is a winding road leading to the top of the mountain in front of the mountain. The back of the mountain faces north, and it relies on the newly dug Gojo Mizubori, making it impossible for the attackers to get close. ”

"Actually, there are certain flaws in this kind of mountain. First, because of its landform, it rises from south to north; The second is the entrance and exit to the south, outside of the defense of the Abu Kuma River, our army can attack the mountain directly from here! "Although the Tsugawa family occupies a favorable location, the trend of Yamagata cannot be changed by manpower. You can't just shut your mouth, can you? They have to fight defense and counterattack, and if they don't have the ability to counterattack on defense, it is impossible to win against the Hosokawa family.

Therefore, the Tsukawa family can only build a line of defense according to the terrain as much as possible. For example, the winding mountain road is more distorted, which causes great difficulties for the attacker; The back of the five-zhang water hori to avoid the enemy on the abdomen and back. Moreover, if the Hosokawa army crosses the river to attack the other two key points, here, it can send troops to cut off the way back!

"So, Mt. Atsu-Shiga is a forward position, and it is the place that is most vulnerable to our army's attack, and Tsugawa Soji... It won't be here! Hattori Hotoshi's well-founded speculation made the rest of the people nod their heads in agreement.

"Well, that's good. Go on. Hosokawa Nobumoto is also very pleased, what I want should be such a talent, not the kind of simple exploration and drawing, to learn to analyze!

"Xianiushi is a checkpoint sandwiched between the two mountains, although it is a Xiongguan, but its status is obviously not as strong as the mountain city. In addition, the mountain shape of Mt. Benten, which is diametrically opposed to that of Mt. Atsu-Shiga, is high in the south and low in the north. Take a look at this topographic map. As he spoke, he came to a medium-sized sand table, and a large mountain occupied almost the entire space, its breadth and elevation were at least twice that of Mt. Atsu-Shiga.

"The official entrance and exit must be on the north side, where the Tsugawa family can receive a steady stream of funding from the territory, and a protracted war is not a problem at all. But at the foot of the mountain to the southeast, we found another castle gatehouse, which is presumably supposed to be a cavalry road leading to the mountain castle gate. Finally, Hattori pointed to the foot of the mountain southeast of Bentenshan, which was next to the Abu Kuma River, which was clearly very unfavorable to the attackers. There was almost no room for formation on the front, and the only way to attack was to attack diagonally from the west.

The Otemon Gate is commonly known as the back gate, and almost every castle will have the Oteemon (Main Gate) and the Scratcher Gate. The back door has many uses, such as escaping, sneaking out of the city to sneak attack, cooperating with the main gate to play defensive counterattacks, and so on.

The cavalry road is generally a runway with three or five horses in parallel, without any obstacles, and cavalry raids can be launched in the city.

"If you analyze it like this, it does make a lot of sense." Some resourceful people, such as Honda Masanobu, also agree with this speculation.

"So... How should our army attack next? Hosokawa Nobumoto nodded, although the terrain was very unfavorable to his side, but this nail must be removed, and the most important thing is that this is a battle that is expected to kill Tsugawa Soji.

"My lord, the general staff unanimously believes that our army should attack one place first, and occupy the high ground of Mount Atsu-Shiga first." Honda Masanobu took the baton and led everyone back to the topographic map of the big sand table to draw the main direction of attack.

"And here, here, and here, to set up a defensive system to ensure that when our army attacks, the rear will not have to worry. Although the Abu Kuma River is a barrier for the enemy, it can also be used as a barrier for our army until the capture of Mt. Atsu-Shiga. ”

"Although the Atsushiga Mountain Castle Tsuteemon can receive reinforcements from the other two places, as long as our army breaks through its Otemon, it will have a base and can use a step-by-step posture to engage the enemy in street battles. I think... Enemy reinforcements are also limited. Please also decide! With that, Honda Masanobu respectfully handed the baton in his hand to Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"Hmm..."Hosokawa Nobumoto took the baton, looked at the chess pieces marked on the sand table with both sides marked on the sand table, and the offensive map that Honda Masanobu had just drawn, and pondered for a long time...
