Multi-purpose warships are indeed much better than bamboo rafts.

The raft is light and requires a sashigaru pole as power, which is simply not feasible in the Mogami River, where the water level rises and the current is fast. However, warships are different, and warships that can walk on the ground in the coastal waters are even more handy in Mogami River.

"But! If you use a warship, it will inevitably pass through the territory of the Daihoji family and the Shimizu family, and the Daihoji family will definitely not let their own warship pass through the territory of the Daihoji family at will. Kuji Mizutani said at this time.

Soji Tsugawa nodded, then thought for a while before continuing to speak, "This matter is easy to do!" Let Benshan faithfully send his family's sailors to cruise outside the city of Opu, and then note to Dabao Temple Yoshizen, explaining that the family's warships are borrowing! ”

"If Daihoji Yoshizen doesn't agree, then let Motoyama Tadanobu block the line along Oura Town. There is no other source of income in the territory of the Dabaosi family, and if the port is blocked, the Dabaosi family can't afford such a loss! Tsugawa Soji continued, "If the Daihoji family still doesn't agree, then directly let Motoyama Tadanobu forcibly pass through the territory of the Daihoji family, and I want to see if Daihoji Yoshizen dares to attack the family's warship!" ”

"Hah!"

Soharu Tsugawa now has the confidence to say such things! Not to mention that the Dabaoji family is just a small wealthy family with tens of thousands of stones, even the famous Tsugawa family like Date and Mogami can not be taken into account at all now. Although the Tsukawa family is still far from the powerful daimyo of the same period, such as Ouchi, Niko, and Hosokawa, the Tsugawa family can still be tough in this Ou area.

.....

The warships sent by Motoyama Tadanobu have not yet arrived, and during this time, the Tsugawa family's troops can only look at the nearby Kazuoka Castle and sigh! The siege of Aogang Castle for nearly a month, due to the heavy rain for a month during this period, the entire siege fell into a stalemate.

The Tsugawa family's ashigaru combat effectiveness is strong, but it can't withstand such a toss!

Looking at the declining strength of his own troops around him, the face of Tsugawa Soji, who was patrolling the camp, began to look ugly.

Yajima Tadahei, who was following Tsugawa Soji, looked at Tsugawa Soji with an unhappy look on his face and didn't know what to do, so he could only turn his eyes for help to Miki Naogo and Mizutani Hisaharu and others beside him. However, Miki Naogo and Mizutani Hisaharu are also powerless against the current stalemate war, and the time and place are favorable, and the Tsugawa family is now untouched.

Besides, the Mogami family and the Tiantong family and others are determined not to come out, and the Tsugawa family is helpless against it!

"This supreme righteous shou is also true, there is still a name for Yuzhou to explore the topic, according to the next opinion, it is better to call Yuzhou shrunken turtle!" At this time, Kana Shishinobu, the leader of the Tsugawa family's horseback riding team, suddenly broke his mouth and scolded, "Phew, the turtle also has an outcrop, and this Mogami Yoshimori is not even as good as a turtle with a shrunken head!" If he dares to show his head, I will make him look good! As he spoke, Kanna Shixin also waved his small fist, looking like he was hammering his chest.

Tsugawa Soji turned a blind eye to the broken mouths of his retainers, and he was still thinking about countermeasures in his heart.

"According to the various strategies of the ancient famous generals of my Celestial Dynasty, the best way to deal with the current situation is to deceive the forces of the Tiantong family out of the city and fight against the family! But in today's situation, the Tiantong family will definitely not go out of the city easily, so there is only the trick of combining inside and outside. Soji Tsugawa thought quickly about the countermeasures in his mind, "If it is a combination of the inside and the outside, there must be an internal response, and the Mogami Yifang is a good candidate, but once it is activated, then the Mogami Yifang will be directly exposed." ”

"There are a series of fortified cities behind Amatsuka Castle and Nakano Castle, and prematurely exposing Mogami Yifang will do more harm than good to the family's strategy! In this way, I can only think about him again! "Tsugawa Soji is just an ordinary otaku, and later generations have been boasting about each other in these places on the forum post bar, commenting on the past and the present, and looking like a strategist, but the actual war is not so simple.

In the past five years, the development history of the Tsugawa family has only faced forces like the south and Anton, and now it is a little difficult to face a Tsugawa Soji of Tsuoka Castle, and if it fights with forces like Hojo and Takeda in the future, I am afraid that it will be even more painful.

"The city is right in front of you, but the enemy army just refuses to go out of the city to fight with your own family! Warships can't reach here without half a month from Wakimoto Castle, and there are also castles behind Nagaoka Castle that are the territories of Nagyoshi, Rokuta, Nasei, Tendo, Nakano, etc., and if you continue to fight like this, I'm afraid that when you reach the castle of Yamagata Castle, it will already be winter. ”

"So, think about it, is there any way to get Tendo Yoshicho and Mogami Yoshimori and others to go out of the city to fight with their own family?" After Tsugawa Soji finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the retainers standing behind him.

After Soji Tsugawa finished speaking, Miki Naogo and the others behind him frowned and thought.

However, if there was really a way, the retainers would have proposed it a long time ago, and now it is indeed a bit difficult for Miki Naogo and the others to come up with a feasible strategy for a while. Seeing that no one answered after a while, Tsugawa Soji sighed, "It seems that we can only wait for the family's warship!" ”

"When the main family and the Ando family fought in Kanano, the rear was besieged by all sides! Why don't you say there is an outbreak in the territory of the top family? Kanna Toishin couldn't help but complain at this time!

"Huh?" As soon as Kanna's words fell, Tsugawa Soji's eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped his forehead and said in surprise, "Shixin's words reminded the family, since it is impossible to lure the Mogami family to take the initiative to fight with the family!" Why not create chaos behind Mogami House? ”

"Now all the troops of the Mogami family are gathered in Kazuoka City, if the rear is unstable, either withdraw the army or can only fight a decisive battle with the family, and no matter what choice the Mogami family makes, it is extremely beneficial for the family!" Soji Tsugawa said with an excited face.

"But let's not say that the family is not familiar with the situation in the Mogami family's territory, and even if it is familiar, it will take a lot of time to send someone to the Mogami family to incite it! To create such a temporary intention, I don't think it will have any effect, right? Hisaharu Mizutani questioned.

Tsugawa Soji shook his head and cast an inexplicable look at Mizutani Hisaji, "Now go to the Mogami family to agitate for a while, naturally I won't show it, but there are other forces behind the Mogami family." At the moment, there is an emptiness in the Mogami family's territory, and if the family can send a retainer to persuade these forces to send troops to the Mogami family, then the Mogami Yoshimori will be forced to either withdraw the army in the eyes of the rear, or he can only engage in a field battle with the family, in order to quickly defeat the family and return to the army to support the territory! ”

"In this way, the family will no longer have a headache outside this Yanggang City!" Soji Tsugawa said with a smile.

"In my opinion, it will take a lot of time to send an envoy to lobby the forces in the rear of the Mogami family, so it is better to wait for the arrival of the warship of the family! Wouldn't it be better to transport the family's troops directly to Yamagata Castle through Mogami River? Shuichiro Yagyu spoke up at this time.

Soharu Tsugawa replied with a smile, "It's always right to prepare with both hands!" ”

"What's more, it's taboo for a soldier to go deep alone! If there is another solution, why take the risk? ”
