After another four-hour trek, Oda Nobunaga's team passed through Tange and arrived at Zenshoji Temple at around 10 a.m. on the 19th.

"How's it going?" As soon as Nobunaga got off his horse, he asked Sakuma Nobumori, who was waiting at the gate of the temple.

"Oops! Not long ago, I got the news that Tadamitsu-sama Mizuno had died. And ......" Sakuma Nobumori frowned deeply. "Marone and Washio have been attacked by more than 3,000 people from Matsudaira, Asahina and Iibe, and they have been fighting fiercely for more than 3 hours!"

Just then, a herald arrived, Pegasus. "Report to Your Highness! Marone and Washio had just been conquered by the Imagawa army. Lord Oda Genfan, Lord Sakuma University, and Lord Ieo Omi Mamoru were killed! Imagawa Yoshimoto's main camp has arrived at the barrel narrow! ”

Hearing the news of his father's death, Sakuma Nobumori's body shook violently.

Oda Nobunaga walked back and forth twice in front of the gate, and suddenly shouted at the anxious retainers, "Go to Nakajima!" ”

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

The sight was terrifying, and my heart was pounding. On the opposite hillside, a large banner with a "comb pattern" printed on it was hunting, and more than 3,000 soldiers were waiting for it. In front of the Imagawa army, the corpses of nearly a hundred Oda soldiers lay on the horizontal. Swords and spears were scattered around with the broken limbs of their masters. The verdant grass beneath them had been stained with blood. The battlefield was quite quiet around the battlefield, except for the wind that blew incessantly. All of this looks extremely strange under the midday sun! Compared to the scenes of movies such as "Braveheart" and "Troy", the feeling of death here is so intuitive and realistic!

I looked around at the people around me. The generals around Oda Nobunaga were full of anger, but there was not much grief and unbearable. Maybe they've gone through too much of a baptism of blood and fire.

"At noon, Lord Sasa Katsumichi led 300 men to attack the front army of Imagawa Honjin...... "A general of Ashigaru is reporting the battle situation to Nobunaga." After an hour of fierce fighting, 87 people from Sasa Katsutsu and Chiakishiro were killed. The Imagawa army has not been able to get close to Nakajima so far! ”

Oda Nobunaga's eyes were fixed on the Imagawa troops opposite, his lips were tightly closed, and his face was so white that there was no trace of blood. Everyone looked at him worriedly. The air was tense as if it was about to explode.

"Attack! Attack now! "He finally broke out." Kill them and leave them behind! ”

"My lord, no!" Shibata Katsuie came out from behind and grabbed Oda Nobunaga's reins. "Our army entered the mountain from the back, and Imagawa should not have noticed it yet. At this moment, the enemy is lined up head-on, and if we attack, we will be in a hard battle. And only if we are unprepared can we have a chance of winning! This is the last hope of the Oda family! Think twice! (Shibata is not a brave man!) ）

"Let go !!" Nobunaga roared.

"Lord !!"

"Smack!" Oda Nobunaga's whip struck Shibata Katsuya on the back of his hand. Everyone was stunned. Perhaps awakened by the bright red scar, Oda Nobunaga gradually calmed down.

"Let's let these Suruga dogs live a little longer!" Nobunaga bit his lip. I could faintly see a bead of blood popping out of the corner of his mouth.

"Kara!" Just as Oda Nobunaga was about to dismount, a thunderclap rang out.

No one noticed that the sky was already pitch black, which was still sunny just now. The black clouds pressed down on the ground like boulders. Accompanied by bursts of thunder, lightning danced like mischievous elves among the thick clouds. In an instant, the torrential rain poured down, like a silver canopy hanging between heaven and earth. The earth was full of splashes.

"Look! The enemy is moving! I don't know who shouted.

Through the rain curtain, we saw a surprising scene. The Imagawa army on the opposite side began to scatter and looked for shelter from the rain. Perhaps disdainful of the "few remnants" in Nakajima, they casually put their knives and guns on the ground. In a short time, a large army turned into stragglers.

"Hah! Ha! Ha! God help me! Oda Nobunaga looked up to the sky and laughed. The Imagawa army has won a series of big victories, and now it is the time of light arrogance! The god of Atsuta has rained down this heavy rain to cover the strength of our army! As long as we attack the Imagawa main camp and kill Yoshimoto, the big thing will be decided! "Then he took out a copper coin (one side is fierce, the other is auspicious, used for divination. Thrown into the air.

Maeda Toshiya ran up to take a look, turned his head and shouted, "Daji! It's good luck! ”

"Daji! Win! Everyone shouted in unison.

"Everyone! Entrust me with your lives! Oda Nobunaga waved the large silver rosary in his hand forward on his horse. Attack! ”

The door was wide open, and we rushed into the rain......
