Chapter 582: The one who enters the customs first is the king

Under the twilight, looking up, on Nangong Mountain, the flag is like a forest.

The Takeda Army no longer needs to be counted, and the number of enemy flags and fingers is too much to count.

And this is only Nangong Mountain, after Nangong Mountain, Sasao Mountain, Matsuo Mountain, the Oda army is heavily armed, and the Oda army's main formation lies in the Tianman Mountain between the three mountains.

The place of this formation, between the surrounding mountains, is as safe as Mount Tai.

Li Xiao looked at the current situation and thought so clearly.

He found himself on the same trajectory as Tokugawa Ieyasu in history.

In history, Tokugawa Ieyasu knew that the formation was unfavorable, but also wanted to bypass the clamp of Nangong Mountain and storm Tenman Mountain, precisely because he had rebelled against the Mori family on Nangong Mountain, the Yoshikawa family, and the Kobayakawa family on Matsuo Mountain.

Therefore, Tokugawa Ieyasu directly attacked his home camp, forcing them to make a decision before the battle.

If you attack the current Nangong Mountain at the beginning, you will only completely drag the Maori family into the camp of the Western Army.

And Li Xiao is now compared with Tokugawa Ieyasu, he has not rebelled against the enemy army in Nangong Mountain, in fact, he has been secretly carrying out the rebellion, but it is by no means as sure as Tokugawa Ieyasu in history.

Several of the Oda family's retainers, their answers were only ambiguous, against or not, and they could not make a decision until the battle situation was clear.

Wait and see, it's a must.

Yes, Li Xiao can attack Nangong Mountain or Songwei Mountain first, and use troops in the right way. Inch by inch, push through.

But in doing so, the war will be dragged into unlimited delay.

The time for him to serve as the general of the Eastern Army is only tomorrow, and as soon as tomorrow passes, whether it is Takeda Nobuyoshi or Takeda Nobuyoshi's main army arrives.

At that time, the battle of Sekigahara, which won the victory of this two-way world battle, could only make Takeda Nobushige a great name in the end.

As the saying goes, the one who enters the customs first is king!

The timing is a little sloppy. The hegemony is no longer for me.

For Takeda Shinfan, who has always been wary of himself, Li Xiao is always looking for an opportunity to put him together.

Now's the opportunity!

And the ambition in his heart also drove him and forced him to make this risky blow!

Yes, only by attacking the main camp of the Oda army and crushing him can we decide the battle tomorrow. Take the victory into your own hands.

Thinking of this, looking at Nangong Mountain in the twilight, Li Xiao's eyes gradually became firm, and his body straightened.

And Tokugawa Ieyasu on the side also saw Li Xiaozhi's changes, and his expression became more and more respectful at the moment.

I have been with Li Xiaozhi for the past few days. Tokugawa Ieyasu has been secretly observing, speculating on the other party, even in the bottom of his heart, comparing him with Takeda Nobuyoshi and Akechi Mitsuhide. Quietly make a contrast in the bottom of my heart.

Now for Li Xiao, Tokugawa Ieyasu only has three words in his heart, and he can't see through it!

At this time, Li Xiao raised his horsewhip and said, "Your Highness Sanhe, I have decided. Tomorrow's battle, march directly from the Nakasendo Road and attack the Oda army's main camp Tenmanyama! ”

Listening to Li Xiao's words, Tokugawa Ieyasu said without hesitation: "Everything is based on the head of the major general of the guards. ”

Li Xiao turned his head to look at Tokugawa Ieyasu and asked, "Don't you ask at all?" ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu lowered his head and said, "Since Major General Konoe has made a decision, there must be a perfect plan in his heart. In the next just need to help each other. ”

"Good!"

In the night wind, Li Xiao's voice echoed at the foot of Nangong Mountain.

"In tomorrow's decisive battle, our army will march along the Nakasendo Road, with His Royal Highness Tokugawa's Mikawa Army as the lead, and I will lead the Hida Echichu Army in the center, His Highness Baba, His Highness Hoshina, His Highness Sanada, and His Highness Satake, in turn, but is there a problem?" …,

"No problem!"

The generals kept answering.

Li Xiao couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw that everyone present was a general who knew the army, but when he heard that Li Xiao had such an offensive move that violated military science, no one raised an objection.

I only heard Sanada Masayuki smile slightly, and said: "Major General Konoshi, the art of war is the best in the world, fighting under Your Excellency, it is really easy, we only need to be ordered to fight." ”

As soon as Sanada Masayuki finished speaking, Satake Yoshishige, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Hoshina Masanao and others all had smiles on their faces, obviously agreeing, Sanada Masayuki said so.

There was only a racecourse letter room on the field, with a solemn face.

Li Xiao knew at the moment that his plans could not be concealed from this battle-hardened veteran, and it was obvious that his heart was also struggling, whether he was inclined to Takeda Shinfan or Li Xiaozhong.

When the racecourse letter room saw Li Xiao, stared at him, raised his head, and said, "Major General ...... Guards"

Li Xiao stretched out his hand and said, "Lord Minomori, rest assured, I will remember what Lord Mino said to me during the Nagashino War. ”

Hearing this, the horse farm Nobubo was relieved and said, "Major General Konoke, so I have no objection. ”

At that moment, Li Xiao nodded, and said slowly: "Very good, everyone, now we are all watching, and future generations are also watching, tomorrow's war will be remembered for future generations!" ”

"After resting in the first half of the night, after the second half of the night, the whole army will enter the preset position when it is dispatched!"

Oh!

In the military tent, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Satake Yoshishige, Baba Nobubo, Sanada Masayuki, and Hoshina Masachi all agreed.

Everyone knows that from this moment on, the decisive battle in the world lies under their feet.

The next day, at two o'clock in the morning.

Arrayed on Mount Nangong in Sekigahara, the Oda Army's Legion heard the dense sound of horses' hooves at the bottom of the mountain, as well as the endless, rumbling footsteps.

There is no doubt that this is the sound of a large army marching forward.

The Oda army on the mountain was all startled, trying to light the torches and looking down the mountain.

But the thick night obscured all the sight of the Oda army.

The main general on Nangong Mountain is wise and Guangxiu, and he can't go down the mountain to attack in the dark night.

And Oda Nobutada, who is located in the south of Mt. Tenman, is also sleepless at the moment.

After learning that his subordinates told him that the 60,000 army of the Takeda Army, the whole army was dispatched and entered Sekigahara.

Oda Nobutada was speechless in astonishment, the Oda army that was arrayed around Sekigahara had 115,000 people, and the Takeda army, which was only as numerous as them, dared to venture into an area where the terrain was unfavorable to them, seeking to take the initiative to fight them.

Originally, Oda Nobutada thought that the decision to conduct a decisive battle was in his hands, and the Takeda army had to choose to accept it or retreat.

Now that the Takeda Army is actually preemptive and actively seeking a decisive battle, do they have the certainty of victory?

Oda Nobutada, at this moment, did not think too much.

The battle between the two worlds, the arrival of this moment, is above the main formation of the Tianman Mountain.

Oda Nobutada instructed the whole army about tomorrow's decisive battle, which was the largest duel in the world after a hundred years after the Onin Rebellion.

Tomorrow, the fate of countless people, as well as the fate of their respective families, will be pushed into this rolling torrent.

After elimination, those who stand out will have this world.

On this night, Oda Nobutada couldn't sleep, and he thought of his father Nobunaga, who died in Nagashino.

At that moment, he couldn't help but pull out the folding fan, and chanted in the middle of the array: "Fifty years in the world, compared with the sky, is just a small thing. Looking at the world, dreams are like water. Let life be for a while, and then the current ......"

Oda Nobutada, who was dancing this section with a fan, looked downcast, as if he saw the scene of his father Nobunaga dancing before the Battle of Sasama, and then breaking the Imagawa family at night. …,

Victory belongs to my Oda family!

Oda Nobutada waved the folding fan heavily, and said secretly in his heart.

Four o'clock in the morning.

Above Sekihara, the morning light was faint, and the sudden fog suddenly enveloped the entire decisive battle area.

The 60,000-strong army of the Takeda Army entered the predetermined position.

The first Tokugawa Ieyasu's 10,000 Mikawa Army entered the Tenmanyama position.

In front of the position, south of Tenmanyama Mountain, the Toyamado Army, which had retreated from Iwamura Castle, faced off against Kawajiri Hidetaka's 5,000 troops.

After the Mikawa Army, there was the 23,000 troops of the Hida Etchonaka Army.

Among the 23,000 troops, Li Xiao directly subordinate to the four standing forces, Shengang Bei, Snake Tail Bei, Qiben Bei, Sun Moon Bei, plus Tiger Benbei, a total of 7,000 troops, followed by the Three Rivers Army.

On the left flank were Fujido Takatora 3,000 troops, Maeda Toshiya 2,000 troops, on the right flank Hashiba Hidecho 3,000 troops, and Jimbo Nagaken 2,000 troops.

In the back is Baba Masabo, the Uchijima clan has 3,000 troops, Shima Katsu has 2,000 troops, and Ando Mamoru has 1,000 troops

In the direction of Li Xiao's army's formation, it was directly faced with the formation between Tianman Mountain and Sasao Mountain.

Oda Nobutada's direct army has 30,000 troops, and Inaba Ittetsu has 10,000 troops leading Mino.

After the Hida Echichu Army, as well as the 10,000 Suruga Army of the Baba Nobubo, and the 2,000 troops of Hoshina Masa.

They faced the 20,000 Ise army of Oda Nobuo, which was deployed in the direction of Mt. Matsuo.

At the back of the palace, the one who guards the back road is the 5,000 Banto Army of Yoshishige Satake and the 8,000 Ueno Army of Sanada Masayuki.

They will face the strong pressure of the 50,000 Army of Akechi Mitsuhide on Nangong Mountain.

On the plain, the envoys carrying white cloth robes, raising their whips and riding war horses, galloped quickly between the various formations, passing Li Xiao's military orders.

In the mist, above Sekigahara, the Takeda Army entered the predetermined position, and after the formation was completed, all the troops temporarily rested in place and ate breakfast.

Due to the dense fog, the mountains are very humid, and there is no dry wood to make a fire for cooking.

So the ashigaru people all took out the rice balls from their waist and swallowed them directly.

And the generals of the various armies came with lunch boxes.

Above Sekigahara, the Takeda army took its place, seized the time to eat, and waited for the decisive battle after dawn.

At 7 o'clock in the morning, the Takeda army was in the main formation.

Li Xiao, Li Zheng, Honda Masanobu, and Hu Zai Zongyi all sat on the Maza, holding the bento on the side and eating rice.

When Li Xiao took a big bite of Chazuhan and raised his head, he looked around and saw that the fog covering the sky had gradually dissipated.

Seeing this, Li Xiao put aside the lunch box at the moment, took out the military rations, and said to the envoy: "Pass the order, and all departments are ready to take over!" (To be continued.)
