Chapter 792: The Tripartite Original Battle (7)
Mikatahara, Takeda and Oda looked at each other 600 meters apart, the scene was quiet, but it was full of a solemn atmosphere, enough to make the timid person pee his pants in fright. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Suddenly, the two units again advanced a hundred and 400 meters each, and even the sound of some soldiers swallowing saliva could be seen. 40,000 against 50,000 people, perhaps many of the soldiers under Oda Yoshinobu had similar experience, such as when facing 100,000 Ichichi on Nagashima, and about 50,000 Asakura and Asai coalition forces during the Kanesaki retreat.
But at those two times, they were more often forced, or the enemy was gathered in the city. They can actually experience very little of the oppression they feel when facing the army. Especially when confronting the Asakura and Asai coalition forces head-on, most of the troops just followed Oda Yoshinobu to rush forward desperately, and in the end, Oda Yoshinobu single-handedly repelled the enemy.
And the Takeda family didn't have any experience, because the enemy he faced was only more than 10,000 people in the Uesugi army at most. Although the Uesugi army is very strong, the number of troops is there after all.
But now, there are 50,000 people in the Takeda family and 40,000 people in the Oda family, and the Takeda family has brought out almost all the famous generals, and the opponent they are facing is the new famous general, Oda Yoshinobu, who is also the unparalleled sword saint in the world. In this case, the psychological pressure on Takeda Army is also not small.
"That's a ...... Just looking at each other like this, I can't help but get excited. Yoshitsugu Otani said tremblingly.
Seeing this, Shimazuo nodded, "Although he is only 12 years old, Yoshitsugu's performance is not inferior to those samurai who have been famous for a long time. Thinking of this, Shima Zuo reminded in a deep voice, "Ji Ji, wait a minute, pay attention to the formation and changes of the enemy and me, this is a very rare learning opportunity for you to lead the army in the future." ”
"Yes! Rest assured! Hearing this, Yoshitsugu Otani hurriedly responded.
"Hmm." Shimazuo nodded, and then focused his gaze on the Takeda Army in front of him again. Ever since Yoshitsu Otani graduated from Azuchi Gakuin and officially became a retainer of Yoshinobu Oda, he has been studying military science with Shimazo. Although they have no reputation, the two can indeed be called a relationship between a teacher and a disciple. And because of this, he appointed Otani Yoshitsugu as his lieutenant general in this situation, hoping that he could learn more through this war.
After all, what could be more rewarding than seeing a big battle like this? Well, it seems that there is only one way to direct the battle in person, right?
A quarter of an hour passed, and the breeze blew, bringing a rustling sound, but the Takeda army and the Oda army were still so silent, standing in place like wooden men looking at each other. From time to time, a soldier swallowed his saliva because he was nervous, and when he did this, he was so cautious that he was afraid of making a sound.
At this moment, the sound of taiko drums sounded, almost subconsciously, and the second and third formations in front of the Takeda Army moved about 50 meters to the left and right, respectively. Subsequently, the 1,000 red cavalry and 3,000 infantry led by Yama Yama Masaka and Takasaka Masanobu respectively moved to the left front and the right front for about 100 meters.
"Humph! Cast a mist before somebody's eyes! Seeing this, Daozuo snorted coldly and did not take the slightest action.
Seeing the movement of the Oda Army, Takeda Shingen suddenly smiled and said, "The general on the other side is really calm, and I now believe that the current commander of the Oda Army is definitely not Oda Yoshinobu." ”
Although he has never met Oda Yoshinobu, how can Takeda Shingen not pay attention to this number one retainer of the Oda family? In fact, before attacking Enoe, he had already read all the information about Oda Yoshinobu in the Takeda family in detail, and even some unreliable rumors about Oda Yoshinobu he had read it many times. In order to understand Oda Yoshinobu better.
"As a general, in addition to knowing how to march and arrange, you must also know yourself and your opponent in order to survive a hundred battles. Now the enemy general is not Oda Yoshinobu, but I can't judge the other party's character......" Takeda Shingen shook the legion fan in his hand lightly and said in a flat tone.
"My lord, according to the subordinates' understanding of the retainers under Oda Yoshinobu, there are not many people who can be generals, or only three people, Shigeharu Takenaka, Li Huamei and Shimazo. Among them, Shigeharu Takenaka is in Shikoku, so there are only two people, Li Huamei and Shimazuo. Hearing Takeda Shingen's words, Muto Masayuki replied in a deep voice.
Just after speaking, he said with a look of shame, "But these two people, Shima Zuo Kon only had some information when Oda Yoshinobu attacked Ise and Nagashima, but because Oda Yoshinobu's attack was too smooth, it doesn't seem to have much reference value." And Li Huamei is even more so, but it is worth noting that her status under Oda Yoshinobu is very high, and even above Shigeharu Takenaka and Keiji Maeda. ”
Speaking of this, Muto Masayuki showed a solemn expression, "Although Oda Yoshinobu has a lot of Ji samurai under his command, he can convince other men, and if I think about it, Li Huamei must have excellent abilities." Especially after she is still a military attache of the Ming Kingdom, she wants to come ......"
"Hmm......" Takeda Shingen nodded when he heard this, and then glanced at the Oda army on the other side, who was completely unmoved. Suddenly, he showed a smile that made people shudder, "Since you don't know, then it's better to test it." Pass the order down and go 100 steps forward again! ”
"Step! Trample! Trample! ”
With Takeda Shingen's order, the Takeda Army moved forward again. Seeing this, Shima immediately ordered the troops to move forward as well. It was still 100 meters each, and it took almost a few breaths to complete this move.
200 meters, which is the distance between the Takeda Army and the Oda Army today.
But this time, Takeda Shingen did not continue to wait, but continued to give orders.
Immediately, Shimazuo saw the two wings of the Takeda Army in front of him, and they began to move rapidly to both sides, like a white crane spreading its wings. After the troops on both flanks were moved, the Oda army could even directly pass the 5,000 red reserve troops led by Nobubo Baba in front of them, consisting of 1,000 iron cannons, bows and arrows, and 4,000 pikes, and saw the main camp where Takeda Shingen was.
"Hehe, is this tempting me?" Shima Zuo sneered, and then gave the order to move forward. "Whole army, advance 50 steps!"
This is the first time that Shimazo has taken the initiative to make changes ahead of Takeda Army. Although he does not have the title of a famous general, since becoming a retainer of Oda Yoshinobu, Shimazo has almost been soaked in all kinds of military records and military books, and he can be said to be the first person under Oda Yoshinobu for his understanding of war command.
So he understands very well how important it is to take the initiative on the battlefield. And this initiative position does not only refer to the advantages and disadvantages after the start of the war, in fact, from the time the two armies arrived at the Tripartahara and began to move forward little by little, this war for the initiative had already begun.
For this, Takeda Shingen and Shima Left are very clear, and the veterans such as Muto Masayuki and Baba Nobubo, who have been following Takeda Shingen, are also very clear, and Otani Yoshitsugu, who is a disciple of Shima Zuo, is also a little ignorant, and Li Huamei can also see it, but ...... Oda Yoshinobu didn't understand.
"It's boring...... What the hell is Zuo Jin doing? Oda Yoshinobu sat on top of Kuromaru, muttering boredly. He really didn't understand what the hell Shimazuo and Takeda Shingen were doing, obviously the two armies were so close, but they were still grinding here.
Hearing Oda Yoshinobu's words, Li Huamei just glanced at Oda Yoshinobu very angrily, and then said in a malicious tone, "My lord, after this battle, my subordinates will accompany you to learn Sun Tzu's Art of War and other knowledge." ”
"Isn't it?!" Oda Yoshinobu looked at Li Huamei dumbfounded, and after seeing that she didn't pay attention to herself, he immediately begged for mercy bitterly, "Huamei, it's not that you don't know, I really don't have anything to do about those things!" ”
Hawkers,It's not that Oda Yoshinobu hasn't learned this.,In fact, when he was Oda Nobunaga's companion.,Although Hirate Masahide didn't teach him any advanced military science such as Sun Tzu's Art of War.,But the general method of arranging troops and arranging formations is also a no-miss.。
But maybe it's because God doesn't allow people to be too perfect, right? It may also be that Oda Yoshinobu has no talent for learning in his life. In short, he had only heard of those military studies or something, but he couldn't understand them at all. In fact, in his eyes, at this time, Takeda Shingen's crane wing array is simply a death-seeking array, if it is his command, he will definitely lead the army directly and rush over, and after sending some people to block the attack of the two wings, he will go straight to Takeda Shingen's main formation.
Yes, Oda Yoshinobu's tactics are so simple and crude, there is no technical content at all. And in fact, from his debut to the present, all the wars he commanded have been fought like this. Directly lead the army to assault the enemy's main position, which is a fairly straight line.
But here's the problem, although Oda Yoshinobu has always been so simple, rough and untechnical, he won those wars. Because no one has ever been able to resist Oda Yoshinobu's surprise attack, even if they have in their minds that China has countless ways to break this attack, but in the face of Oda Yoshinobu's unreasonable martial bravery, they can only sigh in vain.
It's just a pity that now Oda Yoshinobu has handed over the command to Shimazuo, even if he is depressed, Oda Yoshinobu will not take it back. Even if Shimazo is defeated by Takeda Shingen, Oda Yoshinobu will let Shimazao command to the end.
Oda Yoshinobu's idea was very simple, "Even if the left is invincible, it's a big deal that I will directly lead someone to cut down that kid from Takeda Shingen." ”
