In the dark night, Oda Yoshinobu led the Grim Reaper to advance quickly in the night, and the shouting and killing sound that filled the ears became the best protection to cover their actions, and with the night, they were not hindered at all and came to the other side of the city gate about 50 meters away.

At this time, outside the gate of Ghana, more than a dozen torches were planted on the ground, illuminating the entire outside of the city. On the city walls, more than a dozen ashigaru people kept patrolling back and forth, and almost any business that appeared outside the city could not escape their eyes.

"This Nima, keep it tight?!" After looking at it for a long time, Oda Yoshinobu didn't find any flaws that could be used, and the depression in his heart was simply needless to mention.

"Lord, let's attack directly, the main forces of Garner are fighting with Shibata-sama's troops, as long as our side is fast enough, they will definitely be too late!" Keiji Maeda snorted, he had been holding back for a day, and he was finally able to start fighting, he didn't want to wait any longer.

"Hmm...... Then it was decided, and we went on! Oda Yoshinobu said after a moment of silence. Indeed, now that the situation is settled, even if they wait any longer, it is impossible for these garrisoned ashigaru to be transferred. After all, there are only a dozen people, and no matter how miserable Inaba Ryotsu is, he can't use the people here.

At the city gate, the dozen or so ashigaru were looking out of the city boredly.

"Alas, it's hot over there, so let's blow the cold wind here." An ashigaru muttered a little unpleasantly, he looked very young, probably a new soldier who had just stepped into the battlefield, right?

"Hehe, Pig Guard, you kid is lucky, just your two hits, it is estimated that you will be slaughtered in minutes when you go to the battlefield." An uncle who looked to be in his 30s made a mocking remark.

Hearing this, the young ashigaru named Pig Guard immediately quit and quarreled directly with the uncle. Instead of persuading, the people on the side continued to incite. Well, that's just a way for them to adjust when they're bored, and as long as they don't fight, it's better to have a little fun than to be bored like that.

While everyone was having a good time, suddenly a person ashigaru shouted in horror, "Enemy attack! ”

"What?!" Everyone hurriedly looked out of the city, but saw a group of soldiers in black light armor brandishing swords and constantly rushing towards the city. The first person, dressed in conspicuous white clothes and holding a halberd, looks really ......

"It's Yoshinobu Oda! Fast! Hurry up and report to Inayu-sama! The previous uncle screamed, slammed the already frightened pig guard, and then immediately pulled out the horn on his waist and blew wildly. He, a veteran of the Saito family, had seen Oda Yoshinobu on the battlefield before, and that time, Oda Yoshinobu's terrifying strength made him unforgettable in his life.

It's just that just as the horn sounded, he suddenly heard a shout, "Flying Sword Stream!" Hydra Flash: Broken! Then he heard "Bang! With a loud bang, he looked cautiously down the city, but instantly sat down on the ground, muttering stupidly, "What...... How could it be ......"

It's a pity that no one heard his muttering, because many people on the city wall have also been stupid. They watched in amazement at the Oda army that kept rushing into the city, completely unsure of what to do.

"Tsk, no matter how many times you watch this Flying Sword Stream, it's so amazing." Keiji Maeda looked at Oda Yoshinobu who rushed to the front and exclaimed, his eyes full of fire.

"Hmph, there is nonsense, it's better to kill more enemies......" Shiraki Yukihisa said coldly when he heard Maeda Keiji's words.

"Hey, isn't that easy?" Keiji Maeda said, the red gun in his hand stabbed to the side like thunder and lightning, and then a miserable scream came. With a slight pick, the poor worm strung on the head of the spear was thrown in front of him, "Look, isn't it very simple?" Keiji Maeda chuckled and looked at Shiraki Yukihisa, only to find that the facial paralyzed swordsman had already rushed into the enemy group, and he killed several people with a knife in his hand.

"Bastard! Actually play this trick! A big tic-tac-toe appeared on Maeda's forehead, and then he also rushed quickly to the enemy group in front of him, flying up and down with a red gun in his hand, constantly taking away one life after another.

Okay, don't pay attention to this grumpy charmer, but look at Oda Yoshinobu who rushed to the front, the god-killing halberd in his hand kept swinging, and no one in the Saito army who kept pounced could stop even a second. Touching it is death, touching it is death, it is simply the reincarnation of evil ghosts, the arrival of asuras.

Outside the Garner, Inaba Ryotsu, who was directing the defense, suddenly heard the sound of a horn behind him, "Bastard! What's going on?! Inaba Ryotsu shouted angrily, he knew what this voice represented, enemy attack! There is an enemy attack in the rear of Ghana Qiang! But the question is, how did the Oda army get around?!

But apparently he didn't have time to think, "Zhentong! You bring 500 people over to see how it's going! Since the Oda army can get around without us detecting it, there are definitely not many troops! Remember, it's already going to be guarded for me! Inaba Ryotsu shouted and ordered.

"Yes! Father! Inaba Sadatsu responded, and then quickly ran to the rear with his troops.

"You! Send someone to contact the lord! Tell him that Garner has been attacked by enemy troops and ask for reinforcements! Ryotsu Inaba gave the order again.

"Yes!"

"Damn, how can this be!" Inaba Ryotsu scolded indignantly, he had fought inexplicably in this battle, but now this kind of thing happened again, how could he not be angry? "Lord, why do you have to carry out some night raid?" Ryotsu Inaba's heart was full of resentment.

It's a pity that Saito Ryuxing at this time can't hear his broken thoughts at all, or even if he hears it, he is not in the mood to answer him.

At this time, Saito Ryuxing looked not far away with a gloomy expression, where Oda Nobunaga's banner was so dazzling. Although the battle did not deviate from his expectations, the combat effectiveness of the Oda Army was really beyond his imagination. Originally, according to his idea, even if the Oda army had an absolute superiority in troops, it would be impossible to attack in a big way if it was fighting in the middle of the night. After all, it is impossible to see too far in the night.

And when he unveiled the flag, he thought that it would boost the morale of the soldiers and give more pressure and motivation to the Oda army, so that Oda Nobunaga would pull people back from the other two directions. In this way, the pressure on both sides of Ghana and Nagai Michitoshi will be greatly reduced, and the pressure on the Oda army can also be strengthened.

But obviously, all this is just that he thinks too much, although since he was a child, under the teaching of Saito Yoshiryu, Saito Ryuxing has been with military discipline and military books almost all day long, but for the real-time control of the battlefield, it is obvious that he is still much worse.

"My lord! Oh no! Just as Saito Ryuxing was pondering what to do next, he suddenly saw Mamoru Ando hurrying over. As soon as he walked in front of him, without waiting for Saito Ryuxing to ask, he shouted anxiously, "Lord! Big things are wrong! News came from Gana that the Oda army had attacked the castle from the rear, and Inaba-sama asked for reinforcements! ”

"What?!" Saito Ryuxing's eyes widened, and he looked at Mamoru Ando and asked loudly.

"My lord! Ghana was attacked by the Oda Army! Mamoru Ando repeated anxiously.

"Smack!" With a bang, the knife that Saito Ryuxing was holding suddenly fell to the ground, and he muttered in a daze, obviously this matter had completely exceeded his expectations.

Speaking of which, the reason why he played such a night attack that no one could understand was that he wanted to take advantage of this night to reduce the combat effectiveness of the Oda family and his own family. Yes, that's right, it's your own home. Or strictly speaking, it's the forces of the Mino trio and Michitoshi Nagai.

For a year, in addition to pretending to be addicted to alcohol to show weakness to the enemy, he has been secretly observing the movements of the entire Saito family. He is very clear about the actions of Mamoru Ando, Michitoshi Nagai and others. This is the right time to reduce their combat power, and if any of them die in battle, it will be even better.

Therefore, he temporarily decided to play a night raid, retreat to Ghana and defend it for a few days after about the same time, and finally abandon the city and retreat, leading the Oda army into the set ambush circle. And now...... Obviously, all expectations have been shattered.

"How...... What can I do? Saito Ryuxing muttered in a trembling voice, then grabbed Ando's shoulder and shouted, "No! This is not what I expected! How could the Oda Army still have the troops to attack Ghana?! ”

"How the do I know?!" Ando Mamoru scolded in his heart, but he still quickly comforted, "Lord, Lord Inaba just said that he was attacked, not necessarily that he was attacked. After all, it is impossible for the Oda army to have so many troops. So if we come back quickly, we can still keep Ghana! ”

"That's right! Return! Saito Ryuxing nodded in response, but then he yelled, "No! Can't come back! Pass my orders! Retreat now! Withdraw to Inabayama Castle! ”

"What?!" Mamoru Ando looked at Saito Ryuxing in disbelief, completely unable to believe how his lord could suddenly give such an order.

"Retreat! Retreat now! Saito Ryuxing shouted, and then clapped his hands, and the two ninjas came out of nowhere, so frightened that Mamoru Ando almost screamed. You two, hurry up and inform Inaba Ryotsu and Nagai Michitoshi, and let them fight to the death to block the Oda army in front of them, and definitely can't let them leave here! ”

After speaking, he turned his head and shouted at Mamoru Ando, who was still stunned, "Speed the order!" Withdrawal! Withdraw immediately! ”

Saito Ryuxing ran away with his troops so inexplicably, and it was in a situation where the situation was still unclear, which suddenly made Oda Nobunaga, who was still preparing to go into battle in person, stunned. It's just that he was stunned, it doesn't mean that others didn't react.

"Chase! Don't let Saito Ryuko run away! Maeda Toshiya shouted, his eyes fixed on the flag in front of him.

And not far from him, Sasa Narumasa and Niwa Nagahide...... Many Oda retainers are frantically pursuing Saito Ryuko, and for them, this is simply a great achievement! There is no doubt that no matter who catches Saito Ryuko, when Mino is captured, he will be the biggest hero. In this case, how can these people not be impressed?

"Lord, it's not good to chase after it so late at night, right? Do you want them to come back? Seeing this situation, Lin Xiuzhen came to Oda Nobunaga's side and said respectfully.

"Hehe, Hidesada, look at ......" Oda Nobunaga chuckled and pointed around, Shibata Katsuie was leading a large army to continuously attack the defenders of Ghana, and on the other side, Takigawa Kazuyi's troops also beat Nagai Michitoshi without any temper. In this case, what tricks do you think Saito Ryuko can play? ”

Regarding Oda Nobunaga's confidence, Lin Xiuzhen didn't say anything more, because at this time it seems that the overall situation has been decided, the main force of the Saito family is contained, and the family governor is being pursued again, what other waves can there be? Although Saito Ryuxing's retreat is indeed very abrupt, it is not incomprehensible in combination with the previous rumors of Saito Ryuxing. And the reason why he reminded him was just because Lin Xiuzhen had always been cautious.

"Pass my order, let Shibata and Takikawa strengthen the attack, be sure to block the enemy here, and the rest of the people, follow me to pursue Saito Ryuko!" Oda Nobunaga immediately ordered.

It's not that he didn't think about why Saito Ryuxing suddenly retreated, but like Lin Xiuzhen, the rumors about Saito Ryuxing this year made him feel surprised, but it was also reasonable. What's more, once Saito Ryuko is caught, then it is obviously only a matter of time before Mino is pacified, as the saying goes, when faced with high profits, people tend to ignore the high risks that come with it, not to mention that in Oda Nobunaga's view, there is no risk at all at this time.

It's still the same word, troops! With an absolute superiority in troops, Oda Nobunaga was not afraid of Saito Ryuxing playing any tricks at all.

"Lord......" Ando Mamoru followed the rapid retreat of the large army, while looking at the back of Saito Ryuxing in front of him, he suddenly realized that his lord was no longer the person he was familiar with. Hehe, perhaps, was deceived by him from the beginning? Mamoru Ando smiled bitterly in his heart, he never knew that there was such a group of ninjas by Saito Ryuxing's side. And what about other than these ninjas? What else did Saito Ryuko not know about him?

Suddenly, Mamoru Ando suddenly understood the meaning of this battle, "Use the Oda Army to weaken our strength?" Hehe, that's naïve...... But how do you end up now? After thinking about it, Mamoru Ando looked at Saito Ryuxing's back and sneered in his heart.

At this time, Mamoru Ando made up his mind that as long as Saito Ryuxing could not repel the Oda army behind him, then he would immediately forcibly take over the troops and put Saito Ryuxing under house arrest, and lead the troops to retreat to Inabayama Castle and Oda Nobunaga began negotiations. For Mamoru Ando, who holds nearly half of Mino's power, although it is not a good time, many things are always not so perfect.
