"What a hassle...... Uesugi muttered to himself, looking at the map in front of him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Lord, otherwise my subordinates will lead people up to rush a wave?" Kojima said in a deep voice when he heard this.

"No, it's just a small Jinjin City, and there is no need to increase casualties." Hearing this, Uesugi Kenshin looked up at him and smiled.

"Yes!" Although Kojima Sadako was a little puzzled when he heard this, he still sat down honestly.

Afterwards, Uesugi Kenshin ignored the generals, but continued to look at the map and ponder, and suddenly, Uesugi Kenshin turned his head to look at Kawada Nagajin and asked, "How many troops can be mobilized over there in Kasuga Mountain Castle?" ”

Hearing this, Kawada Chang kissed for a moment, but quickly responded, "If you mobilize to the limit, 5 or 6,000 people will still be fine." ”

Although the Uesugi army sent more than 40,000 troops, in fact, after it was distributed among the countries of Echichu and Echigo, less than 10,000 people were mobilized by each country. This is not a big problem for the Uesugi family, who have already implemented reserve military service.

"Hmm......" Uesugi Kenshin thought for a while and said, "Jinggang, you take 3,000 people back to Kasugayama and take over the entire logistics on the one hand, I think this war will continue for a long time." On the other hand, be prepared for Sado Island. ”

Hearing this, Naoe Jinggang was stunned for a moment, and said a little strangely, "Lord, my subordinates remember that when my family set out on the expedition, they had already prepared for Sado Island. Isn't it ...... to draw troops here for this?"

"Hehe, won't Oda Yoshinobu increase his troops?" Hearing this, Uesugi Kenshin sneered, "According to intelligence, almost all of the naval forces under Oda Yoshinobu are Nanban ships, and according to those Nanbans, although the ability to fight near and close to the sea is slightly inferior, in terms of long-distance sailing, it is not at all comparable to ships such as Ataka and Sekifune. So I think that at this time, Oda Yoshinobu may have already arrived in Sado by sea, and he was waiting for the time to come. ”

"My subordinates understand!" Hearing Uesugi Kenshin say this, Naoe Keixuna didn't say anything more, and returned directly to Kasuga Mountain Castle after ordering troops.

After Naoe Keixuna left, Uesugi Kenshin glanced around at everyone and suddenly said to Suda Mankin, "Mankin, you take some people back to Noto and start building ships secretly." Well...... There should be quite a few of them on the side of the Nengden Water Army, and they should all be mobilized. ”

"Yes!" Suda Mitsumi didn't ask much when he heard this, and left directly, but Kawada Naga asked suspiciously, "My lord, are you planning to use the naval army to defend the Oda army on Sado Island?" ”

"Hehe, guess what~" Uesugi Kenshin smiled when he heard this, and then looked at the somewhat embarrassed Kawada Nagajin and explained, "Don't you think that there is no need for us to storm Jinjin Castle at all?" ”

Inaba country, Tottori Castle.

The Akechi, Niwa coalition and Yoshikawa Motoharu's Yama** Legion have been at a stalemate at the crossroads between Tottori, Tenjinyama, and Koshiyama Castle until now, and they have each used Tottori Castle and Koshiyama Castle as their bases, constantly attacking each other, but no one has the upper hand.

"Hehe, it's really unexpected, in addition to Oda Yoshinobu, the Oda family has a famous general who can compete with me." Yoshikawa Motoharu admired, it sounded very arrogant, but with his name Yoshikawa Motoharu, it seemed that it was a normal thing to say so.

"The Oda family's troops are strong in combat, there are a large number of iron cannons, and the command ability of the enemy army is also very good......" Inoue Motokan shook his head and sighed, no matter what he thought, he couldn't come up with any strategy to break the enemy.

"Why don't you divide your troops? There are more than 40,000 people in the main family, and the combined enemy army is less than 30,000 people, and if you remove the troops of the Yamana family, it is less than 30,000. If the troops are divided, their combat effectiveness will definitely be weakened a lot! Motoharu Yoshikawa groaned.

"Divide the troops?" Inoue Motokan groaned when he heard this, "If the troops are divided, it is better to send a force from Zhongshan through Wakazakura and directly kill Harima, so that it will ......."

Hearing this, Yoshikawa Motoharu shook his head and said, "No, the Oda army is strong in combat, if there are too few troops, it will not be able to break through their blockade at all, and if there are too many, that trail is not suitable for a large army march." And come to think of it, my third brother doesn't want me to interfere in the war in Shanyang Dao. ”

"What does Yoshikawa-sama mean ......," Inoue Motokan asked respectfully.

"By sea!" Motoharu Yoshikawa said in a deep voice, then walked to the map and pointed to the sign on it and said, "If Tajima is attacked directly by sea, how do you think the Oda army will react?" ”

"This ......," Inoue Motokan said after looking at the map and pondering for a moment, "It sounds good, but I heard that the Oda family's navy is very strong......"

"Hehe, don't worry about this!" Yoshikawa Motoharu sneered, "The so-called navy of the Oda family is indeed very powerful, and it is said that not only does it have a large number of iron cannons, but it also buys more than a dozen ship-borne cylinders from the Nanbanians!" However, it is not so much the navy of the Oda family as the navy of Oda Yoshinobu! ”

Hearing this, Inoue Yuanjian's eyes suddenly lit up, "I see! Then the Oda army in front of you can use ......"

"It's just the Tango Navy! And according to my information, the Tango Navy didn't come with the army, maybe because Niwa Nagahide and Akechi Mitsuhide didn't expect to fight all the way to Inaba, right? Yoshikawa Motoharu's tone was full of mockery, and the object, there was no doubt about it.

"Hehe, I think I don't think anyone thought of it." Inoue Motokan also sneered, he really lacked any good feelings about the Yamana family who had two countries, but directly surrendered within a few days.

"That's it! I will let the scribes assist you, and at the same time give you 5,000 men. As for how to attack after arriving at Tajima, you can see for yourself! Yoshikawa Motoharu looked at Inoue Motoken and said in a deep voice.

When Inoue Motokan was still called Toji Kenren, Yoshikawa Motoharu had already fought with him many times, and Yoshikawa Motoharu was really clear about his ability, so he trusted Inoue Motokan very much to be able to carry out this task well.

"Please rest assured, Yoshikawa-sama!" Inoue Motokan said with some excitement, not only because of the importance of this task, but also because of Yoshikawa Motoharu's trust.

nodded, and then Yoshikawa Motoharu looked at everyone and said loudly. "The others, now rest immediately, and after nightfall, launch a fierce attack on the Oda army!! This time, be sure to kick them out of Inaba! ”

"Oh!!"

Bizen Province outside Sanishi Castle.

Compared with Yoshikawa Motoharu, the situation on Kobayakawa Takakei's side is undoubtedly much better, because in the face of Kobayakawa Takakei's army, Yushiba Hideyoshi just hid in Sanshi Castle and kept defending, and he had no idea of going out of the city to fight in the field at all. Well, in fact, it's not nothing, at least after the arrival of Maeda Toshiie and others, Hashiba Hideyoshi and Maeda Toshike organized a counterattack to try to defeat Kobayakawa Takakei's army in a field battle.

It's just a pity that in the face of Hashiba Hideyoshi's attack, Kobayakawa Takakei used his command to tell Hashiba Hideyoshi that the so-called Maori wisdom is not just a strategy, and in terms of commanding troops, he Kobayakawa Takakei will not be inferior to anyone.

In the face of the attack of Hideyoshi Hashiba and others, Kobayakawa Takakei made full use of the weakness of their inconsistent command and constantly lured the three Maeda Toshike to go deep into the formation of their own army. If it weren't for Yushiba Hideyoshi who saw that things were not good and immediately led the army to rescue Maeda Toshiya and others, I am afraid that in this battle, Sanshicheng would not only have to be lost, but also have to fold Maeda Toshiya and others.

Subsequently, Hideyoshi Hashiba, Toshiie Maeda and others directly closed their doors, using Sanshi Castle as a stronghold to block the way of Kobayakawa Takakei's army to march to Harima.

"Lord!" A voice came from outside the tent, and then Nami Sokatsu was seen striding in. "My lord, Iyo Province has reported that after the arrival of reinforcements sent by His Highness, the Oda army has been blocked in Kanekoyama Castle, Marukushi Castle, and Omori Castle. In the words of the Maori Lords, they would not have been able to break through these three fortifications unless other reinforcements were added. ”

"Haha, my fourth brother is very confident." Kobayakawa Takakei laughed when he heard this.

It's just that Nami Zongsheng's next sentence made him unable to laugh.

"But my lord, according to Murakami-sama's report, Takenaka Shigeharu under the command of Oda Yoshinobu commanded the navy to garrison Shodoshima, and Murakami-sama tried to break through several times, but he was blocked back." Nami Zongsheng said with a solemn expression.

"This is a bit troublesome......" Kobayakawa Takakei frowned when he heard this, Shodoshima is China's first checkpoint to, if it can't be broken through, how can it attack Awaji? Well, has Takakei Kobayakakawa's eyes already seen Awaji? If Hideyoshi Hashiba knew, wouldn't he be very sad?

"How's the rest of the front?" Takashi Kobayakawa asked after a moment of silence.

"Yoshikawa-sama is still fighting the Oda army in Inaba, and it seems that no one has the upper hand. However, Uesugi and Takeda's side had begun to gain the upper hand, but they were still unable to take the castle. Nami Zongsheng replied respectfully.

"Second brother, don't worry, it's Takeda and Uesugi ......," Kobayakawa Takakei muttered, "I believe they should almost exert their strength." ”

Hearing this, everyone's eyes immediately focused, because from Kobayakawa Takakei's words, they seemed to hear that Kobayakawa Takakei seemed to have made some kind of determination.

"Zong Sheng! Immediately let the navy storm Shodoshima and attract the attention of the Oda army. At the same time, send a part of the ships to Tomita Matsuyama Castle! As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Yuanzhen and said, "Lord Bencheng, it's time for you to appear!" ”

"Please rest assured! You won't be disappointed in the next place! Bencheng Yuanzhen said respectfully.

Hearing this, he nodded, and then Kobayakawa Takakei glanced around at everyone and said, "Then, from tonight onwards, an uninterrupted onslaught will begin on the Three Stone Castle!" ”

"Yes!"

After arranging, Kobayakawa Takakei looked at Sanshijo and sneered, "Is it Hashiba Hideyoshi?" This boring siege battle, that's the end of it......"
