Although I looked up, down, left, or right and didn't find the attacker, the edges of the two camps, Otomo and Ikeda, flashed from time to time, which was caused by the firing of iron cannons. Just look at the flash of fire, not in one place, but in all directions.

"Even if it is an attack, it is impossible to have more than a dozen people on each side, how many people have been dispatched to surround these two large battalions, the Eastern Army?" I was distraught, after all, this was not my place. The people in and the Kinkoku side have an instinctive fear of the samurai of the Eastern Kingdom, and it can't be said that it has had a subtle impact on me for many years, but in fact, it's not just me, even Oda Nobunaga back then was also stunned by Takeda Shingen!

It is not a kilometer away from Otomo and Ikeda's Otei, but there are always seven or eight hundred meters, and even a telescope is very vague at such a distance. Besides, it was still night, and the lights could only be in the camp, although there was also a kind of "searchlight" similar to a bucket, but the effect was only better than nothing. It's not a big force, and I can't see the attackers here clearly.

Finally, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and about 5 minutes later, a pair of shadowy figures finally fell into my eyes! It was a cavalry of about two hundred men, but they were ...... But it appeared on the water.

As mentioned before, there are now five rivers on the Fuji River, and it is impossible for the camp to be planted in the water, so it is inevitable that some "gaps" will appear between the stable companies and camps arranged by the various armies!

Among the daimyo who sent troops this time, Otomo and Ikeda were arguably the most numerous, and the Otomo family had been doing business with Nanban for a long time, and Ikeda, with the continued assistance of Oda and me, was also the best equipped.

For this reason, I put the two of their troops in the area that was divided into pieces by the Fuji River, and I believe that they can handle this matter well. It's just that I didn't expect to come in just one day, and the Hojo clan really wants to give me a dismount!

It's just that how could this cavalry appear on the water, didn't they know that the river would greatly restrict the speed of the war horse? The large camps on both sides were built close to the river bank, not too far apart, and in this situation the cavalry passed through the river, which was simply a live target for the iron cannons on both sides.

As I expected, the first salvo of iron cannons sounded over there, and then a thick smoke obscured the already unclear vision!

"Are they all fools?" I took off the binoculars and muttered to myself, anyway, I wouldn't be able to see anything for a while.

As far as I remember, the cavalry of the Hojo family was not very strong, and the number was not very large, how could they withstand such a bad situation by the Hojo clan. On the contrary, it is Tokugawa Ieyasu, who is said to have completed the work of taking over and transforming Takeda Akabi, although it cannot be compared with the era of Yama Prefecture and Bababa, but it can also be pulled out in the current eastern country! And I didn't see even one of the previous stages of the war, so I don't know when he wants to wait.

"Huh?" After the smoke cleared, the river returned to calm, and the telescope lens showed the water sparkling and nothing. "Didn't you hit any of them?" A little surprised, I couldn't help but complain a little about the quality of Otomo and Ikeda's iron artillery troops.

"It doesn't work......" Misty Butterfly said softly behind me.

"Why, the cavalry of the Eastern Kingdom still can't beat it with iron?" I inevitably felt a little resentful when I heard her say this, and the exit was a reprimand.

"The lord forgives, that's not what the concubine meant!" When Misty Butterfly heard me say this, she knew that she had lost her words, and immediately asked for sin.

"Do you know what's going on here?" Although it was not so comfortable to hear someone close to me praise the enemy, I was not a reckless person after all, and I could hear that there was something else in her words.

"If I'm not mistaken, Ikeda and the Otomo soldiers must have been horsemen who shot!" Misty Butterfly leaned forward and stood behind me, even though she was a ninja, she couldn't reach the telescope's line of sight.

"That's naturally yes, what's so strange!" Although I knew that what he said was just an introduction and not a substance, I couldn't help but go back.

Japanese horse breeds are generally not good, but there is still a shortage of them, so if they can be captured, they will try not to hurt them. The so-called iron cannon accuracy of this era is really low, although the effective range is 70 steps, but whether it can be hit depends on the destiny of heaven, but it is somewhat certain to enter within 20 steps. If he is able to do so, he will try to aim at the person on the horse to shoot, which has almost elevated from a routine to instinct.

"It's a pity that it basically doesn't work, and the vast majority of people on horseback are straw men!" Misty Butterfly stared at the Fuji River, which had become relatively quiet, and said in a steady but firm tone.

"Straw Man?" I was slightly taken aback. There was nothing left to see in front of me, and I turned my head to stare at Misty Butterfly's face.

"Judging from this time, this place, and this way, it should be the No. 1 ninja wind demon flow in Kanto!" She spoke conclusively, without the slightest doubt. Her eyes and expression at this moment somehow reminded me of my math teacher in middle school.

"Wind Demon Flow, Wind Demon Kotaro?" I was stunned for a moment, this is a name that was familiar in the past and is now almost forgotten.

Ninjas are a very special group, and there are not many daimyo who really recognized their value during the Sengoku period, that is, a few people like Takeda Shingen, Oda Nobunaga, Tokugawa Ieyasu, and Date Masamune. But a few hundred years later, it's different, young people who like novelty are far more interested in these ninja legends than their masters, and I can't be unfamiliar with the name of Wind Demon Kotaro, which is a name that is called the same as Hyakji Tanba and Hattori Hanzo.

"What special skills does the Wind Demon Flow's ninja have?" I didn't have anything useful in my memory, I just consulted the "experts" in front of me.

"There are only five generations of Wind Demon Stream, which is really not long compared to other genres!" Fog Butterfly's narration seems to be recalling something, maybe it was before following me more than ten years ago. "The Wind Demon Stream was originally a group of bandits on the Hakone Mountains a hundred years ago, but their skills were far stronger than those rioting natives, and even the ninjas in the vicinity were rarely matched. It is said that their clan is from a foreign land, each with a green face and fangs, and the best skill is to serve horses, so that the war horses can run like flying in the mountains and forests. For this reason, the horse team of the Wind Demon Stream can always attack the opponent out of nowhere, and when Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin besieged Odawara, they did not suffer less! ”

This is indeed a special skill, the mountain cavalry is really a difficult strategic defense force to deal with, but I don't need to ask me to know that this ** horse must not be able to be raised and trained on a large scale, otherwise the cavalry of the Hojo family will not be what it is now.

"What an annoying thing!" I let out a long sigh, since Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin can't do it, I'm afraid that the clan can't immediately think of a way to suppress the Wind Demon "Ghost Cavalry".

"After dawn, the mad demon cavalry will naturally retreat!" Misty thought I was asking her, so she took the initiative to answer.

"Dawn? Even after dawn, wouldn't it be foggy for two hours! "I remembered this morning.

"Although there is fog here, it is not so thick that it can still be seen clearly from forty or fifty paces away!" The fog butterfly is worthy of having a fog character in its name, and its observation is really more detailed than mine. "Besides, after such a night of tossing, the consumption of horses and people must be very large, and they should be withdrawn to rest during the day, and at least after nightfall!"

I took out my pocket watch and looked at it, it was already half past four and it was about to dawn, so now the Wind Demon Horse Team is the time when the old force has retreated and the new force has not yet been born, and I am also the time to reverse the decline and boost the morale of the army in one fell swoop. Night? It's night, and it's not sure who tosses whom!

"Call Nagasobu and Sakichi in!" I yelled outside, knowing that they couldn't stay away at this moment.

"My lord, what are your instructions?" That is, in more than ten seconds, the two of them walked in together.

"It's up to you now, whether you can keep the people from the east from approaching within two hundred steps!" I pressed my eyes at them with the utmost momentum and asked.

The two of them looked at each other, and then replied in unison: "Broken bones, the Lord is foolproof!" ”

"Good!" I shouted and stood up abruptly, and then commanded them in a loud voice: "Find thirty men with torches in their hands, and follow me to the front." Oh, hold up my horse seals too! ”

"Lord...... What are you? The two of them looked at each other in surprise again, but by this time I had already walked out of the room.

********************************************

"Lord, I'm worried about you!" I was slightly embarrassed to see me coming to Gamo Township, but this unnatural expression was only fleeting.

"I forgot one thing, so I'm in a hurry to make up for it!" I made steady progress to the front, which was already the gate of the camp outside the three bridges. "I'm going to return to Shiratoriyama City early tomorrow morning, and I'm afraid I won't be in a hurry if I don't come back!"

"Oh......" Looking at the brightly lit "honor guard" around me, the Gamo clan was a little dazed. At this time, there were still Shima Katsutake, Tsuda Kazusu, and many daimyo from the former military headquarters standing next to him, who were all looking at me when they saw me.

Just in time, there was another fierce sound of iron cannons in front of him, and this time it should be Ikeda's camp.

"Tokugawa Ieyasu and Hojo Clan Masato have come up with such an interesting game, how can we not have fun with them!" Ignoring everyone's surprised or puzzled eyes, I said loudly to the Gamo clan: "I didn't think about it a while ago, but now I will assign the Zhuxing Special Reserve and the Mochizuki Reserve to you to command, so that the guys in the East Country can see our methods!" ”

"The subordinates will live up to the expectations of the lord!" After realizing that he had obtained all the secret powers directly under the Stars, the Gamo clan entered a state of euphoria.

"Now you continue to command, and I'll sit here!" I took a few steps back and sat down on a chair that had just been prepared, and the "cash cow" horse seal behind me was shining in the light of many torches. "Shout three times to the opposite side, 'Zhuxing Qing Clan is here!' "I swung the Taijitu military fan in my hand forward.
