Chapter 660: Bloody Battle of Miyagawa (3)
I only heard Sanada Masayuki speak: "Although the lord also wants to have a decisive battle with the Takeda army, but after all, this battle book is under the mountain of Yama Changjing, since he has made such a decision, then this battle should take the initiative to attack, but now it has no intention of attacking at all, but completely adopts a defensive style of play, especially the central and southern fronts, it is completely me who does not move, and even the most basic tentative attack has not been launched, it looks like it is completely delaying time, doesn't the lord feel that there is a problem?" ”
"That's right, I also think there is a problem just now, but the enemy delays time, there is no point at all, the longer they delay, the more unfavorable the battle situation will be for them, after all, the combat power of the army is still higher than theirs, as long as there is enough time, then it is completely certain that they will be defeated, this point Shan County Changjing should be very clear, but he still did it, then there must be something to rely on."
Hearing this, I saw Honda Masanobu raise his head violently and said, "My lord, will the enemy be waiting for reinforcements to arrive?" ”
When he finished speaking, even he was a little skeptical of what he said, not to mention that the Takeda family did not have any extra military strength to send to Hida again, even if there were, how could it not be discovered with the powerful intelligence system of the family, and besides, the battle had been going on for a while, and if the enemy really had reinforcements, he should also appear on the battlefield by himself.
After hearing this, the clan couldn't help but shake his head, although he hadn't figured out why the enemy was doing this yet, it was certain that except for the Takeda army in front of him, there would not be any Takeda army in the Takayama Basin, or in the entire Hida Country.
If there are reinforcements, it can only be the 300 monks and soldiers of Kokubunji, they don't go to Kojima Castle to support the Eima family, but come here to support the Takeda army, but they only have 300 people, even if they come, they can play a role, and as long as they move, the 300 new writers under the command of Yamauchi Kazutomi will follow. They alone can entangle the lord, monks, and soldiers.
Shan Shan Changjing is one of the four famous ministers of the Takeda family, even if his wisdom is not comparable to bravery, but he should not take this stinky move.
Thinking of this, I saw that the clan shook his head and said, "Judging from the current situation. The enemy should have no reinforcements coming. ”
When the clan finished speaking, both Honda Masanobu and Sanada Masayuki fell into silence.
Seeing this, Maeda Keiji said easily: "Are the two military advisors thinking too much, according to the following opinion, it must be that Changjing of Nashan County is afraid of the combat strength of his own army, so he will take passive defense, and he wants to trap his army by virtue of the terrain." Maybe there is still hope for victory, and if he takes the initiative to attack, then the troops under his command will die faster. ”
The clan and the other three completely took Maeda Keiji's words as a deaf ear, if this is the case, why does the enemy take the initiative to fight a decisive battle with the family? So when he finished speaking, he was still thinking about it, and there was no one to explain anything.
After receiving the order. The two hundred ninjas in the middle line immediately moved closer to the southern front, and the number of ninja troops on the southern front had reached four hundred and fifty at this time.
Seeing that the ninja army had been assembled, Mizse Uemon did not hesitate to lead the army to the opposite bank. The Takeda army on the east bank of the Miyagawa River is only 500 people, and there is no way to face the ninja army that can attack from afar and can be close to the enemy, and their gun array is so fragile under the attack of the overwhelming shuriken, only as soon as the battle is engaged, the Takeda family with serious injuries has reached nearly 100 people.
The enemy among the samurai led by the Takayama family did not play their cards according to the rules at all, and if it continued like this, I am afraid that before they encountered the enemy, their side would be completely annihilated. So in desperation, he had to change his tactics and let his subordinate Ashigaru fight with him in close combat.
Although in this way, the Ashigaru General under his command will not be able to exert his full strength, but it is still much better than just being beaten and not fighting back, and when fighting with the enemy ninja army, he did not forget to send his Ashigaru to the main camp to report to the camp. I hope that the lord can bring in reinforcements. …,
After receiving the report, Changjing of Shan County asked, "What is the movement of the enemy army in the middle lane?" ”
"Back to the lord, there are only three hundred heavy vines left in the middle of the Gaoshan army, and they are still on the defensive, and I ask the lord to decide."
There is no doubt about the long-range combat ability of the heavy vine bow and ashigaru, but this melee ability is really too unbearable, if they dare to attack it, let alone five hundred ashigaru, even if there are two hundred people, they can be easily blocked, so Changjing of Shan County not only transferred all the three hundred troops between the two armies to the southern front to fight, but also transferred two hundred of the five hundred ashigaru in the middle line, anyway, now the high mountain army has no reserves, and there are three hundred people in the middle line to defend, which is enough.
After the order was issued by Yama Yama Changjing, 500 Takeda family ashigaru immediately rushed to the southern front to help in the battle, so that in addition to the dead ashigaru, the Takeda family's southern front army has also reached more than 800 people, which is nearly twice the number of Takayama family ninja army.
Seeing the arrival of the enemy's reinforcements, Mizurai Emon suddenly felt a lot of pressure, if the lord didn't let the iron cannon press on the iron stab melee with iron stabs, then it wouldn't be long before he would be driven back to the west bank.
"Report to the lord, the enemy has transferred 500 troops to aid the southern front, and now the enemy army on the southern front has reached more than 800 people, Lord Minase is in a bitter battle, and I ask the lord to decide."
The clan didn't feel any surprise at such news, and only heard him say lightly: "Zhilu Dao, quickly order Sugi Shanshan to lead three hundred iron cannons to cross the river lightly to fight, even if he is not victorious, he will still drag the enemy's army to me!" ”
"It's the lord, and the subordinates will do it."
When the ninja replied, he was about to leave, only to hear the clan stop him again and ask, "How is the situation in the middle line now?" ”
"Back to the lord, the main family on the middle line and the Takeda army are still in a confrontation, because the enemy has already transferred 200 troops from the middle line to aid the battlefield on the southern front, so there are only 300 people on the middle line at present."
"Okay, I know what I said, you can quickly go and give the order."
I saw the clan stand up, walked to the map, and carefully looked at the enemy's formation, the enemy's main formation is set up in the middle of the pontoon bridge directly east, the distance is only 1,500 meters, if you can defeat the defenders in the middle, then you can attack the enemy outside the main formation as quickly as possible, in this way, the enemy's military strength in front of the battle in order to keep the formation from losing, will inevitably return to the army to help, and the family can be lightly covered and killed, the enemy wants to recover the decline, but it is not so easy.
I saw that the clan clan smiled slightly, and a bold plan immediately appeared in his mind. This plan seems to be bold, but judging from the current battle situation, there are still these certains. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
