The battle in Takekawa was raging. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although the offensive of the Mikami Naozuna team was temporarily held back by the Tohi family, on the whole, the southern family still suppressed the Tsugawa family.

Especially after the Okuji Dinghisa of the second battle also entered the battlefield, the situation was even more unfavorable for the Tsugawa family.

Okuji Dingjiu cut into the battlefield in a very tricky position, and went straight to the rear of the Tohi family from the left side of the front line of the Tsugawa family and the southern family, wanting to raid the rear of the front line of the Tsugawa family. It can be expected that once the Okuji Seijiu succeeds, the entire Tsugawa family will be surrounded by the southern family.

At this time, Hachibai Daowei also sensed Okuji Dingjiu's intentions, and hurriedly joined the battlefield with the third and fourth squadrons under his command.

Hailong Yoshimasa and Kuchiki Tsuaki also joined the battlefield at this time with Ashigaru of Komatsuyama Castle to support Hachibai Michiwei and others.

Compared with the strength of the troops under the command of the Hachibai Daowei and the Tohi family, the standing ashigaru of Komatsuyama Castle is undoubtedly more elite.

In the ashigaru under the command of the Hachibai Daowei and Tohi family, except for the first squadron, most of the other squadrons were farmers. Due to the late time when the two joined the Tsugawa family, and the fact that Pinglu County and Xiongsheng County are vast and sparsely populated, the number of standing ashigaru has not been able to be raised. In this way, it is not surprising that it was suppressed by the Mikami Naozuna team.

However, the Hailong Yoshishin team and the Kuchiki Tongmei team are different.

It's no exaggeration to say that in addition to the five-color preparation and the garrison ashigaru of Ueno Castle, the ashigaru of Komatsuyama Castle is definitely the most elite standing equipment.

Originally, Komatsuyama Castle was the place of knowledge and action of the Kuroda family, and the two were also samurai under the Kuroda family, plus Komatsuyama Castle was originally the base of the Tozawa family, and the surrounding area had more advantages than others in terms of population and prosperity. The number and training of the standing ashigaru are also much better than those of other castles, and in addition, he has participated in almost all the battles of the Tsugawa family, so he has a lot of combat experience.

The tiger that eats people and the tiger that eats people are completely two different concepts, so when the two armies just came into contact, Okuji Dingjiu was stunned.

"What's the situation? Why is there such a big gap between these Tsugawa family's ashigaru and the ashigaru just now? Okuji Dingjiu was unspeakably surprised and suspicious in his heart.

Just now the battle of Mikami Naozuna's team, although Okuji Dingjiu did not participate in it personally, but he watched it for a long time. The Tsugawa family of Ashigaru, who was attacked by Mikami's Naotsuna, was also well-trained, but it was suppressed in less than a quarter of an hour in the hands of Mikami Naotsuna.

However, the ashigaru he is facing now is not only unable to suppress it, but even his own side is still at a disadvantage?

Okuji Dingjiu didn't know that the strength of the troops in the Tsugawa family was different according to the place of belonging, and the combat effectiveness was also different, so he was so surprised and puzzled.

However, after all, it was the Four Heavenly Kings of the South, and Okuji Dinghisa regained his composure after a brief moment of surprise, "Sanmenbei, Sataro, do you see the Tsugawa family over there?"

In front of the two powerful samurai under his command, Okuji Dingjiu pointed to the Tohi family team on the right side who was fighting with Mikami Naozuna's team, and said slowly: "Sataro, you lead a team of people to attack the rear of this army, and cooperate with Mikami-sama to defeat the enemy's front formation." With that, Okuji said to Masaki Sataro.

"What about me, my lord?" After Okuji Dingjiu finished speaking, the three guards of the gold plate on the side asked puzzledly.

Okuji Dingjiu hurriedly continued: "Sanmen guard, you follow me to block this Tsugawa family army that came to reinforce it!" ”

"Once Sataro and Mikami-sama defeat the front army of the Tsugawa family, then we can capture the back few formations of the Tsugawa family in one go!" Okuji Dingjiu's eyes were full of confidence and expectation.

"Hah!" Kanona Sanmen and Masaki Sataro immediately replied loudly.

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

On a hill behind Takekawa, Minami Harumasa was standing on the highest point looking at the battlefield ahead, and Naotsuna Hibashi and Naoyoshi Izumiyama were explaining the situation on the battlefield to Minami Harumasa.

"My lord! Naozuna-sama seems to be on the verge of crushing the enemy's front. Naotsuna pointed ahead and said to Nanbu Harusa with a smile on his face.

After speaking, the lord of Izumiyama Castle, Izumiyama Naoyoshi, also said slowly, "It seems that the one who is fighting with Lord Okuji is the original retainer of the Onodera family. As for the other force, it is not known whose command it was. ”

"Humph! If Naotsuna Mikami and Johisa Okuji can't even defeat such an enemy, then these two wastes won't have to come back! Nanbu Qingzheng's slightly excited and confident voice sounded at this time, seemingly expressing dissatisfaction, but in fact, isn't this a kind of confidence in Nanfang Qingzheng?

"Lord, the elite troops of the Tsugawa family don't seem to be on the field!"

"Although Mikami-sama and Okuji-sama are now in an advantageous position, if the follow-up troops of the Tsugawa family arrive, the situation will be reversed in an instant!"

Izumiyama Naoyoshi and Naotsuna Hizumi kept whispering in the ear of Nanbu Harumasa.

After thinking about it for a while, Nanbu Harumasa said, "The right flank of the Tsugawa family's main formation seems to be the countrymen of Yuri-gun, and the combat power of these countrymen is not worth mentioning. What needs to be guarded against should be the enemy's left flank, let Ishigui Nobubo and Nan Changyi go to the left flank of the enemy, and don't give them a chance to support the front of the Tsugawa family. ”

"In addition, let the forces of the Hachinohe family support Mikami Naotsuna, and in addition, the forces of the Katsumaki family and the Kuji family will be deployed as a reserve in the rear of Mikami Naotsuna and Okuji Johisa. If the battle ahead doesn't go well, be ready to respond! "Southern Haruhi has made corresponding arrangements one after another.

"Hah!"

Nanbu Harumasa's order was quickly issued under the orders of several envoys, and Ishigme Nobubo and Minami Nagayoshi hurriedly commanded his Ashigaru to kill the Yagyu Shuiichiro team and Tsugi Hirohiro's team on the left flank of the Tsugawa family.

And the head of the eight households, Nobuyoshi Hachinohe also took the 300 troops of the eight families to support the Mikami Naozuna team in the front at this time.

Nobuyoshi Hachinohe was the eldest son of Hachinohe Jiyoshi, and inherited the family name of Hachinohe after Hachinohe Oharyoshi died in battle. The young Hachinohe Nobuyoshi resembles his grandfather, Nobunaga, and although he is young, he manages the Hachihe family in an orderly manner.

The instability within the retainers of the eight families was gradually improved by the eight nobuyoshi and the eight families were reunited.

"Nitta Masamori! The enemy's right side is short of troops, so you lead your army to make a detour from the right side and launch a fierce attack on the enemy's right side, cooperating with Mikami-sama to suppress the front line of the Tsugawa family! Nobuyoshi Hachinohe said loudly to Nitta Masamori beside him.

Nitta Masamori hurriedly replied, "Ha! ", and then took the Nitta administration and others and began to rush towards the right side of the Tufei family team in front.

Nitta Administration left with a team of people, and Nobuyoshi Hachinohe then said to the Hachinohe Ashigaru general next to him, Nakakan Masano, "Masano, you are the most relied on general of the family, and today is an opportunity to prove the strength of the family like the main hall!" Let's get on! ”

Hearing Hachinohe Nobuyoshi's words, Nakakan Masanao also replied excitedly, "My lord! Today's battle will definitely be a shame! ”

Nobuyoshi Hachinohe and Masashi Nakadate pointed out that the "former shame" was the "glorious deed" of the 400 troops of Hachinohe Jiyoshi who were defeated by 30 members of the Nanoka family in the battle between the seven and eight families against the Nanoka family last year.

Although Hachinohe died in battle, it can be regarded as "sacrificing his life for the country", but this also disgraced Hachinohe. After all, 400 people were defeated by 30 people, which was unprecedented in the southern family, and it was precisely because of this that Hachinohe Nobuyoshi would say that this was a "shameful" battle.
