After Oda Honjin, the atmosphere seemed to freeze because of Oda Yoshinobu's words, and everyone looked at Oda Yoshinobu blankly, with a complicated expression in their eyes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It's just that before Oda Nobunaga could speak, Sakuma Nobumori on the side stood up and laughed, "Yoshinobu-sama, you seem to be suspected of stealing credit by doing this, who doesn't know that I am known as the retreating Sakuma, and I must be responsible for this situation!" ”

Attacking Shibata and retreating to Sakuma, before Oda Yoshinobu came to the fore, he had always been the two famous generals of the Oda family. Retreat here is not a derogatory term, it is not that Sakuma always loses battles and has to retreat, but that he is very good at directing troops to retreat.

Is this a skill? Of course, and in a way, this ability is even more powerful than winning a battle. After all, there are many factors that can be used to win a battle, such as martial arts, such as unifying the army, and such as strategy, but retreating is a battle for live ammunition. Moreover, when retreating compared to the attack, the morale of the troops is obviously even lower, the formation will be scattered, and even orders will be difficult to issue.

Especially in this era, most of the troops are improvised peasant soldiers, and once they are defeated, it is very easy to enter the rout mode. Just like the Battle of the Nine-Headed Ryukawa in Japanese history, in fact, the mob did not lose anything, but because of the defeat of a small number of people in front, it eventually attracted a large rout. In the end, the Asakura sect was achieved, that is, the terrifying record of Asakura Zongdi defeating 300,000 with only 10,000 people.

Hearing this, Oda Yoshinobu looked at Sakuma Nobumori with some stunnedness, he never thought that the first to jump out at this time was this old minister with an extremely thin sense of existence. Since the Oda family captured Mino, the sense of existence of this former Oda family celebrity has become less and less, not to mention Oda Yoshinobu, and in many cases it is not even as good as the rising generations of the Maeda Toshiya.

It is true that he is known as the retreating Sakuma, but that doesn't mean that he will be able to retreat safely every time he is the queen of the palace, especially now, since Asai Nagamasa dares to betray the Oda family, he must have been absolutely conscious. In this way, if you want to withdraw to Kyoto safely, it is clear that you need more than just strength.

However, although he didn't expect it, Oda Yoshinobu still shook his head and said, "Lord Sakuma, I don't underestimate you here, but this time His Royal Highness is completely different from the past, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is nine deaths." As an important minister of your family, how can you take risks alone? ”

After speaking, seeing what Sakuma Nobumori wanted to say, Oda Yoshinobu said again, "Although there is a suspicion of boasting, the martial arts under the lower level can undoubtedly minimize this risk." And...... Others say that I am the god of war of the Oda family, so at this time, how can the god of war let others retreat first? ”

"This ......" Sakuma Nobumori was speechless when he heard this, if the others were fine, but Oda Yoshinobu moved out of the name of the god of war, then Sakuma Nobumori had more reasons in vain. After all, in this era, honor is the most important point for most samurai.

"Have you decided? Righteous faith? Oda Nobunaga asked in a deep voice. He really wanted to persuade him, but he really couldn't persuade him, because if the 50,000 army wanted to retreat to Kyoto in the enemy's trap, someone had to stay behind. To put it bluntly, someone had to risk their lives as a shield for them, whether it was the soldiers or the samurai who commanded the army.

As a result, Oda Nobunaga could not specify who to let go to the palace, and in fact, it was difficult for the monarch to appoint anyone in this situation. After all, whoever you designate is who you send to death. But when the person who recommended himself is not the person the monarch wants to see, but there is no way to change people, you can't say that your life is too important, or change someone else to send you to death, right?

Hawkers, if Oda Nobunaga really dares to say this, then this kind of person ...... Well, this kind of person can't be a big thing at all.

"Of course!" Oda Yoshinobu nodded solemnly, "There is no more suitable person for this kind of thing than me!" As the family's iconic retainer, you must have to take on more responsibilities than others, don't you? ”

"In that case, give you 20,000 horses!" As soon as Oda Nobunaga spoke, he was interrupted by Oda Yoshinobu, "I'll only take Ise's 10,000 people with me." I believe that at this time, the news of Asai Nagamasa's betrayal of his family has spread in, and it is very likely that you will be intercepted by other enemies when you return. And ......" Oda Yoshinobu said this, and suddenly showed a smile, "You have more soldiers around you, and I'm relieved, aren't you?" ”

"Bullshit!" Oda Nobunaga roared angrily, and was about to continue to say something, but unfortunately Oda Yoshinobu had not given him this opportunity.

"Time is pressing, maybe now the Asai Army has already been killed, so the matter is decided! Ladies and gentlemen! Brother, please leave it to you! Oda Yoshinobu glanced around at everyone and said,

"Even if we die, we will protect the Lord and return to Mino in peace!" The crowd stood up and shouted in response.

Nodding with satisfaction, Oda Yoshinobu smiled at Oda Nobunaga, who was full of anger, "By the way, Shinna's girl will go back with you~"

"Fart! You remembered it for me! You said you were going to protect Shinna for the rest of your life, so you must bring her back to Mino safely! Oda Nobunaga roared again, but that's it......

"Rub! When did Lao Tzu say this?! ”

Soon, under the order of Ichichi, the Oda army, which was attacking the Koya Pass, retreated like a tide, but the Asakura army did not suspect anything, because this situation had been happening for the past two days. They just seized the time that was less than a quarter of an hour to rest, while waiting for the next wave of Oda army's attack.

It's just that......

"Huh? How did the Oda Army retreat? The Asakara army on the city wall looked strangely at the Oda army outside the castle, obviously not understanding what was going on.

On the side, Asakura Keiken, who noticed that something didn't seem to be quite right, hurriedly rushed back to the castle tower in the city and reported to Asakura Keitaka, who was resting.

At this time, Asakura Keitaka was resting, because the non-stop offensive of the Oda army throughout the day prevented the Asakura family from sending generals to take turns commanding.

"What?! The Oda army retreated?! When Asakura Jinglong heard the news, he suddenly fell asleep, and got up directly from the bed, not even bothering to wear armor, and rushed out directly in a pajama.

After a short time, he came to the high platform in the city, looked up, and sure enough, he saw that the Oda army was retreating rapidly.

"Lord Nadai, what do you see?" Asakura Jingjing asked suspiciously, he also rushed to hear the news, and when he saw this kind ......of scene, he couldn't guess what the Oda army was paying attention to for a while. Lure the enemy? Unless the Asakura army is stupid, it will fight the Oda army in the field with the absolute inferiority of troops.

They knew very well that Oda Yoshinobu had also gone out with the army, although they didn't know why they hadn't seen Oda Yoshinobu until now, but as long as the unparalleled banner in the world was hung in the Oda army's main formation, the Asakura army would not have the slightest courage to fight with the Oda army.

But if it wasn't to lure the enemy, could it be that something unexpected happened that made the Oda army have to retreat? "Could it be ......" Asakura Keitaka seemed to remember something, but he closed his mouth again halfway through speaking, just staring at the Oda Army who was getting farther and farther away.

"Father?!" Asakura Jingjian shouted anxiously. Although he couldn't guess what the Oda army was trying to do, he knew that now was the best time to pursue it.

"Nayo-sama?! I think it's better to send someone to follow him to reconnoiter first, after all, if the Oda family just retreats, with the strength of the family, it will be difficult to stop it. Hearing this, Asakura Jingjing said that although he also guessed that the Oda Army might have some changes, even so, it was a very dangerous thing to pursue the Oda Army. After all, the Asakura army in Kiya Pass Castle is only more than 30,000 people, while the Oda army has 50,000 people......

It's just that before Asakura Jinglong could speak, his eyes staring at Oda Jun suddenly enlarged, and then, he heard his roar, "The whole army is out of the city!" Pursue the Oda Army! ”

And in the face of his sudden roar, Asakura Jingjing and Asakura Jingjian did not have any doubts, because they also saw that at the end of the horizon, a force was rushing towards the Oda army, and in an instant, they were engaged in battle.

"Charge! Target the head of the enemy general! Charge! I saw one of the leading samurai in that army, wielding a scarlet spear in his hand, riding his horse to meet the Oda army frantically. Although this force seems to be only more than 1,000 people, it does not seem to have the slightest fear.

And in the face of this sudden enemy army, the reaction of the Oda army was obviously too slow. But what puzzled them the most was the conspicuous Asai family crest in the enemy army. But there is no way, after all, in their hearts, the Asai family has always been an ally of the Oda family, and where would they have thought that one day they would wave a blade at themselves? And at the time of the retreat, Oda Nobunaga did not say a specific reason.

"Pass the order, the fighting troops stop the enemy, and the others ignore these enemies and rush straight over!" Oda Nobunaga shouted.

Although the number of enemy troops was not large, Oda Nobunaga knew very well that as long as he stopped and fought with them, then the Oda army would not have to go at all. So the only thing he could do was to ignore this enemy army at all, and go as far as he could while the Asai and Asakura troops had not yet appeared. As for the troops that are still fighting this enemy army at this time? Although Oda Nobunaga didn't know which army was fighting him at this time, Oda Yoshinobu was willing to be the queen, so who else couldn't be sacrificed?

"Tsk, these guys are coming really fast......," Oda Yoshinobu complained dissatisfiedly when he heard the commotion in front of him. Although he didn't see the specific situation, he still easily guessed the reason.

"Hmph, my lord, are you still planning to persuade your subordinates and others to leave with Your Highness's army?" Oda Shinna glared at Oda Yoshinobu with a dissatisfied face and snorted coldly. On the side, the faces of the Gamo clan and Fujido Takatora were also not good-looking.

Just now, Oda Yoshinobu was still persuading Oda Nobuna and Oda Nobunaga to leave together, including the Gamo clan and others. It's just a pity that Oda Yoshinobu couldn't find any suitable excuse in a hurry, and now ...... It's a bit of a hassle.

With the intelligence of Oda Shinna and others, how could they not guess what Oda Yoshinobu thought? It's nothing more than treating them as a burden. Well, even so...... It's not wrong, but obviously, it hurts the self-confidence of young people a little. After all, when they officially became samurai, they were ready to die on the battlefield.

It's just clear that their preparation, in the eyes of Oda Yoshinobu, is nothing more than the impulse of a young man. But obviously, although Oda Yoshinobu thought so, he didn't dare to say it so bluntly.

"Hah...... Hah......" Oda Yoshinobu looked at Oda Shinna and the others who were glaring at him and laughed twice, suddenly stretched out his hand and touched the heads of the three of them, and said with a solemn expression, "Don't die!" ”

Although he still didn't approve of the actions of the three imps, seeing their expressions, Oda Yoshinobu knew that he couldn't stop it. Although he can have people force them to leave. But if it does, it will undoubtedly be the greatest humiliation for them. When a samurai who is ready to die is about to go to battle, even if there are thousands of reasons, how do you stop it?

Hearing this, the expressions of Oda Shinna and the others also showed solemn looks, "Please rest assured, lord!" Immediately, Oda Yoshinobu stepped onto Kuromaru and waved the god-killing halberd into the sky, "Keep up!" Immediately, he led his army to meet the Asakura army that was rushing here.

Yes, Oda Yoshinobu didn't pay attention to the Asai army who blocked the way, although he didn't know how many people there were, but there was no doubt that there were certainly not as many as the Asakura army. In that case, it's a good choice. And to be honest, if Oda Yoshinobu could get to the front and crush the enemy forces before the Asakura army caught up with the rear of the Oda army, and then rush back...... Well, this book is still a very orthodox historical text after all.

It's just that after breaking away from the rear of the Oda army, Oda Yoshinobu did not advance again, but just watched the Asakura army while ordering the troops to arrange the formation. What he had to do was only to stop the Asakura army, not to defeat the Asakura army, and strictly speaking, with the strength of Oda Yoshinobu's current army, it would be difficult to do so.

In the front line of the Oda army, in the face of Oda Nobunaga's seemingly ruthless orders, Mori did not have any resentment, in fact, if he could, he would prefer to return the position to Oda Yoshinobu, and he would resist the pursuit of the Asakura army.

But in this situation right now...... "It seems to be good~ At least there is a chance to fight with His Highness Shura." Sen Kecheng thought secretly in his heart, and then shouted, "Stop this group of traitors for me, and you must not let them hinder the retreat of our army!" ”

"Oh!"
