"What! Did the Takeda family send troops? ”

Under the strong wind, the white-bottomed curtain painted with the papaya family pattern in the main camp of the Oda family is hunting.

An Oda military envoy with three red and white flags on his back knelt down in front of Nobunaga and reported to him.

After confirming the news that the Takeda family is out of battle.

Oda Nobunaga, who was sitting on top of the horse, handed the horsewhip from his right hand to his left hand, got up and stood up, looked up to the sky and laughed, "The mountain has moved!" ”

Oda Nobunaga held a horsewhip in his hand, and in the middle of the formation, he walked like a dragon, and his eagle eyes seemed to see his prey, revealing bloodthirsty and cruel.

Nobunaga held the horsewhip in his hand and said in a deep voice: "This siege of Honganji Temple is to lure Takeda Katsuyori to send troops at this time, and only 15,000 troops are enough to deal with it!" ”

Nobunaga looked at the envoy and said, "Tell Mikawaden immediately, be sure to let him support him for a while, and my Oda family's army will arrive immediately!" ”

Three Rivers Country, Shiraku-gun.

Under Changshino Castle, the remnant sun is like blood.

On April 21, the Takeda Army crossed the top of Qingbang and entered the Three Rivers.

Beginning on May 8, the Takeda Army laid siege to Nagashino Castle.

The lord of Nagashino Castle, Okuhira Nobumasa, led 500 city soldiers, equipped with 200 iron cannons, and decided to fight to the death with the Takeda army based on the danger of defending the Ono River and the Kansa River.

On the 11th, 12th, and 13th, the Takeda family attacked Nagashino Castle more than a dozen times, and on the 13th, the Takeda army fired fire arrows into the castle, which happened to burn to the city's arsenal.

The defenders of the city ran out of food.

Seeing that he was in danger, Okuhei Nobumasa ordered his retainer Torii to strengthen the right emon and swim out of the city overnight to ask for help.

On the 15th, Torii Strongemon arrived at Yoshida Castle.

At this moment, Tokugawa Ieyasu had already devoted all his possessions to lead the Tokugawa army out of battle, set up a formation under Yoshida Castle, and fought several fierce battles with the Takeda army.

Tokugawa Ieyasu saw Torii Strongemon and informed him that Oda Nobunaga had arrived at Okazaki Castle with his main force, and that he would soon arrive at Nagashino Castle, and asked him to reply to Okuhira Nobumasa and ask him to hold out for a few more days.

When Torii Qiangemon returned to Nagashino Castle, he was captured by the Takeda Army halfway through.

The Takeda army threatened with his life and falsely reported to the city that reinforcements would not come, but Torii Qiangemon, who pretended to agree, shouted under the castle: "Oda Tokugawa reinforcements will arrive within three days!" Everybody, persevere! ”

Later, Juqiang Uemon was killed by an enraged Takeda gun.

When the defenders heard the news, their morale was boosted, and they were even more determined to defend at the moment.

For a while, the Takeda Army could not capture Nagashino Castle, but at this time, the 30,000 elite soldiers of the Oda Army and the 8,000 Mikawa soldiers of Tokugawa Ieyasu had already approached Nagashino Castle and set up a formation under the Archarakuhara!

In the face of Nobunaga's aggressive and persecuting army, this battle for the Takeda family was not as good as the last battle of Takatenjin Castle, but at this moment, Nagashino Castle had not yet fallen, and Nobunaga Tokugawa's army had already arrived under the castle.

Takeda Katsu Yorimei Kawawa Nodashimi, Mieda Shoutomo, Nawa Soyasu, Iio Help, Gomi Takashige and other generals, on the south bank of Nagashino Castle, Kite Nest Mountain, Nakayama Mountain, Kuma Mountain, Basking Huai, and Jun Fu were stationed.

Then ordered Koyamada Masayuki and Takasaka Masasumi to garrison Haicun on the west bank of Nagashino Castle.

A total of 3,000 troops on both sides monitored Nagashino Castle.

And Takeda Katsuyori led the main force of the Takeda Army of 12,000 to set up a formation in Shotahara, and faced the Oda Army.

In the third year of Tensho, on May 20, the eve of the Battle of Nagashino.

At this time, the weather suddenly rained rain.

At this time, it was the rainy season of Mikawa, and the sudden heavy rain caused the water of the Toyogawa River and Lianzichuan River on the Shorakuhara to rise sharply, and the water potential became turbulent.

In the sky, it was pitch black, and you could barely see your fingers.

But the rumbling thunderstorm sounded in front of his ears, and occasionally a silver snake pierced the sky, driving the explosion to thunder, which was shocking.

Changjing stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the pouring rain in front of him, and the earthy air with rain powder hit his cheeks under his head.

The thunder could not make his face change in any way, only when the corner of his eye was aimed at the camp of the Oda Tokugawa army opposite, the red armor behind him inadvertently moved. …,

"Lord Shan Shan, the military discussion can begin!"

Yama Yama Changjing nodded slightly under the reminder of Takeda Katsuyori's approach.

The rain is still pouring down.

On the four sides of the military tent, the crimson Takeda Ling, which jumped like a flame, had been wet by the rain, not so dazzling, revealing a somewhat dim color.

Changjing of Shan County strode forward, and before he reached the military tent, the piercing quarrel had already spread in front of him.

"Bastard, this heavy rain has made the battlefield extremely muddy, such a terrain, how do you tell your horseback team to trek in the muddy water, how to gallop at maximum speed, and gallop on the battlefield!"

Changjing, Shan County, recognized this as the voice of the racecourse letter.

"Hmph, Lord Oni Mino has seen nothing but this, don't you know, Your Excellency, although the rain will greatly reduce the power of the cavalry, but it can also make the Oda Army's iron cannon barrel ineffective, compared to the two, or the family has a great advantage!"

The one who refuted the Racecourse Letter House was the Shenglai Gong's Minister's Trace Division, who was extremely favored at the moment.

Hearing this, Changjing of Shanxian turned pale, lifted the curtain, and walked directly into the military tent.

It's not a military discussion, it's just a woman-like unreasonable quarrel, and it's a little louder than who's going to be louder.

Changjing of Shan County saw several retainers, their faces turned red, they glared at each other, and their mouths did not stop at all, but their hands pressed the Tai Knife on their waists, and they almost wanted to draw their knives against each other.

The military conference has been going on for an hour.

The dispute between the two sides continued unabated, and the commander of the Nishiueno Army, Naito Masatyo, their opinion was to demand that after the capture of Nagashino, the troops should be withdrawn immediately, and that a head-on battle with the Nobunaga-Tokugawa coalition army should be avoided.

Naito Masato's opinion represented the opinion of most of the Kai ministers, who were mostly in favor of a battle with the Oda Tokugawa coalition.

Although Nobubo, another important minister, did not oppose the decisive battle, he also believed that Shotgakuhara was not a good place for a decisive battle, and he believed that the coalition forces could be lured deep into Shinano and then annihilated in one fell swoop.

Katsuyori's Shinano ministers Katsushi, Mitsuken Nagasaka, and Takeda Nobutoyo insisted on postponing the attack on Nagashino Castle and fighting a decisive battle with the Oda Tokugawa coalition forces under Shotagakuhara, which not only saved Honganji from the danger of destruction, but also laid the foundation for Kamirakuraku.

Again, as in the past, the Kai department is an important minister on both sides of the Shinano department, and they are at loggerheads and have different opinions.

Among the generals of the Takeda Army, Masatoyo Naito has always been known for his calm personality and steady use of soldiers, and when Shingen was alive, he once praised him as a talent who could be a deputy general.

Naito Masatoyoshi looked directly at Takeda Katsuyori and said, "My lord, fifteen thousand against thirty-eight thousand, you don't need to think about it, and you know that it is a battle with no chance of winning. With all due respect, if there is a battle, there will be no chance of victory! ”

Naito's outspoken advice made Takeda Katsuyori very unhappy.

"Not fifteen thousand, but twelve thousand against thirty-eight thousand!"

This interrupted the military discussion present, and everyone looked at it, and it turned out that Changjing of Shan County strode into the military tent.

"My lord, when our army is weak, it is definitely not a wise tactic to divide our troops to meet the battle!"

Yama Yama Masakai couldn't bear it anymore and expressed his opinion to Takeda Katsuyori.
