Chapter 61: Inuyama Castle

Oda Nobunaga sat in the big tent with a frown, originally before the army Inabayama Castle, he was still full of confidence, although there were few soldiers under his command, but they were all powerful banners, with these banners, how could the Saito family resist the offensive of the Oda army. But who knows, the truth is not as smooth as he thought, although the Saito army is vulnerable, but this Inaba Mountain Castle is difficult to bite beyond his expectations.

Just when Oda Nobunaga was thinking about it, the shouts of killing in front of him soared into the sky, and I saw Hasegawa Shuichi running into the big tent and said anxiously: "Report, lord, the Saito army has been killed from the city, Lord Kawajiri Hidetaka is invincible, and now he has been defeated, please decide." ”

"Quickly give the order and line up to meet the enemy." After Nobunaga finished speaking, he picked up the pressure cut beside him and walked out of the house quickly. Not only did he not expect it, but even all the retainers of the Oda family did not expect that the Saito army, which had already been defeated in the field battle, would abandon the strong castle and not defend it, but would go out of the city again to fight, and even attack while the Oda army was resting.

And in the Oda military camp tent, Flag Ashigaru was awakened by the sudden shouting of killing, they saw that the enemy was alive and well, and they had already retreated, if this was placed in the past, they might not hesitate to escape, but since the Oda family began to implement the Eight Slashing Method, they had to think carefully before fleeing, if they escaped now, whether the small life could be saved.

Although the enemy had already been killed, the Oda family banner did not retreat alone, but under the command of the samurai, they supported their tired bodies and fought one by one. However, after they had just resisted the enemy's attack, an army suddenly appeared from the west of the Great Tent, and soon the new force of the Sensaito clan was killed, and they did not let these ashigaru entanglements, and after breaking through the defenses of the Oda army, they took the main camp. One of the three people of official Mino led by them, the lord of Ogaki Castle, the family of Buquan.

The Oda army was also in chaos, and some of them saw that the main army was attacked, and immediately returned to the army to rescue, but this provided an opportunity for the Saito army to take advantage of, seeing the defeat of the army in front, although Oda Nobunaga was unwilling, but saw that the rear position had been broken through by the enemy, and the enemy was about to kill the main formation, so he had to hate and announce the withdrawal of the army.

When the Sato clan saw the retreat of Oda's army, they did not chase after it, and after grabbing the goods and grass in the tent, they returned to Inabayama Castle.

Oda Nobunaga led the defeated army and marched halfway. Hidemasa Hori, a close attendant, came to the front and dismounted and reported: "Report! The lord Takayama has captured the three castles of Inuyama. ”

"What! Was he really taken down? Oda Nobunaga couldn't believe it, the real purpose of his sending the Takayama clan to attack Inuyama Castle was just to contain these three cities, so as not to take advantage of the retainers under Oda Nobukiyo's command to take advantage of this when the army was out of battle. Nobunaga never thought that with the more than 100 feet of the clan, he would be able to capture Inuyama Castle, which was only slightly inferior in defense to Kiyosu Castle.

And not only Inuyama Castle, but even the other two branch cities have been captured, and it has only been a few days? After listening to the report, Nobunaga's mood couldn't help but feel better again, and he smiled and said, "Ha Luha, okay, send someone to inform Senbei, now I will appoint him as the castle representative of Inuyama Castle, and promote him to the rank of general, and add the title of Zhixing Senshi north of Dongqi Castle." Go for it."

"It's the lord, and the subordinates will immediately send someone to Inuyama Castle to convey the lord's order."

That night, the clan saw the flag sent by Oda Nobunaga to convey it, and was overjoyed to learn that not only had he been promoted, but even his knowledge had increased by 1,000 koku.

It's no wonder that the clan is so happy, from the ashigaru general to the general of the servant, this is a qualitative leap, from today, he can also be regarded as a high-level samurai, and the knowledge of the line has more than doubled at once, and he can blatantly expand the army again.

The clan couldn't help but think that he had only given a reward of 200 Shi Zhixing when he proposed the separation of soldiers and peasants, and after proposing the sword hunting order, the reward was even more useless, and it seemed that he would have to make more military exploits in the future.

After the joy, the clan remembered that in addition to the reward, he also had the title of Inuyama Castle Castle Generation, in his opinion, this is a bit of a fly in the ointment, what is good about being a city generation, although it can fight externally, but it can't be a family, it's almost like going to prison, and if you lose this city that doesn't belong to you, you have to be responsible, this city generation is really a thankless errand. Well, it's not advisable to stay here for a long time, so it's better to leave as soon as possible. ,

The clan did not treat the ashigaru who came to convey it badly, and directly took out two gold judgments in his arms and threw them to him as rewards, and he held the two golden judgments in his arms, even happier than the clan, which was equivalent to his several months.

After sending away Oda Nobunaga's Shigaru, the clan lay on the couch and couldn't sleep for a long time, and he was very excited to receive such a generous reward for a while, and he was thinking about how to get out of this ghost place as quickly as possible.

After tossing and turning on the couch for a long time, he couldn't fall asleep no matter what, so he simply got up and immediately convened an evaluation meeting.

Although the clan is a castle generation, he doesn't have the right to use the castle tower assessment room in Inuyama Castle, anyway, there are only three retainers, and there are not many people, so it is held directly in the samurai mansion.

After the three retainers sat down, they only heard the clan say: "Ladies and gentlemen, the lord has promoted me to the rank of general, added the title of Zhixing Qianshi, and also appointed me as the city representative of Inuyama Castle. ”

After hearing this, the three retainers immediately fell asleep, and the lord was promoted, which meant that they also had room for promotion. Sure enough, I only heard the clan say again: "Wasuka Masakatsu! ”

"The subordinates are here."

"This Inuyama City Raider, you won three cities in a row, you are indispensable, you should be the first merit, and now you are promoted to the general of Ashigaru, with an annual salary of 180 yuan, and a reward of 100 yuan."

Wasuka Masakatsu raised his eyebrows with joy, and hurriedly saluted and said, "Thank you, lord." His subordinates swore allegiance to the lord. ”

The clan nodded with satisfaction, and looked at the Qiantian Li family again. "Capture the defenders in the city on the left, and win the enemy's generals, for the second merit, and now you are promoted to the general of the ashigaru, with an annual salary of 180 yuan."

"Thank you, Lord for your kindness."

"Yamauchi Ichitoyo asked for an enemy general, and rewarded 50 yuan."

Yamauchi Kazutoyo has no complaints about the fact that the lord did not directly promote his identity, after all, his own merits are still far from Wasuka Masakatsu and Maeda Toshika, and he also secretly made up his mind that he must practice martial arts diligently in the future, and say that he will win the first merit next time.

After the three retainers congratulated each other, they found that the lord had no intention of letting them go, and he knew that the lord still had something to say, so he immediately quieted down again.

Seeing that the retainers of the middle family no longer spoke, the clan said: "Now that the family has 1,700 stones, the 200 army is a little less, and I have decided to add a hundred banners." ”

Without waiting for the retainers to speak, the clan continued to say: "Yifeng, the matter of recruiting and training ashigaru will be left to you. ”

After hearing this, Yamauchi Kazutoyo asked, "I wonder if the lord still wants to organize the newly recruited Ashigaru into an iron cannon and a sword rider?" ”

The clan did not speak immediately, at this moment he was thinking, in his mind, it will not be long before the cavalry under his command will be equipped with military spurs, obviously the existing childish knives are useless, if they are not used, it will be too wasteful, and although the cavalry is strong, there are many terrains that are not suitable for them to fight, and it seems that they are still inseparable from the infantry.

Thinking of this, the clan said: "The newly added 100 ashigaru are numbered as childish sword ashigaru, and the 100 childish swords that are ridden with the iron cannon childish sword are good." ”

"But in this way, the cavalry will lose its ability to assault, and its combat power will drop significantly, so please think twice." Yamauchi Yifeng frowned and hurriedly said. Even Masakatsu Wasuka and Toshiya Maeda felt strange, how did the lord, who had always been generous, suddenly become a buckle and a noose?

However, the words of the clan immediately dispelled the doubts of the retainers. "You don't have to worry about this, I have ordered the blacksmith in the town to create a weapon that is more suitable for their assault, and it will be clear in three days."
