Chapter 453: Stand Still

The sound of the iron cannons of the Tokugawa-Oda coalition army's surprise attack on the Irichao mountain hill alarmed the Oda army and the Takeda army that confronted the front line.

The roar of iron cannons in the early morning made the 20,000 soldiers of the Takeda Army feel that the rear road was being attacked, and there was a faint sense of inappropriateness.

And at this moment, at the top of Keokrakuji Mountain, in the main array of the papaya-patterned curtain of the Oda family.

Oda Army generals Oda Nobunaga and below, Oda Nobutada, Kawajiri Hidetaka, Shibata Katsuie, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Honda Tadashi and others are all looking into the distance, waiting for news of the Iris-Nest Mountain Special Forces.

And when the sound of iron cannons came, the generals of the Oda family, and even Oda Nobunaga himself couldn't help but show a look of great joy on their faces.

Oda Nobunaga Huo Ran stood up from the maza, clasped his hands together, and said to Tokugawa Ieyasu beside him: "It seems that Sakai Sakai's attack has been successful!" ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu nodded and said, "Heiji, as well as the Higashi Mikawa people under his command, are all the strong forces of the family, and there should be no loss in a sneak attack under Takeda's unpreparedness." ”

Oda Nobunaga nodded heavily, waved his horsewhip, and said: "In this way, the Takeda army has no way to retreat, and it will inevitably counterattack our army. ”

Nobunaga said confidently.

Tokugawa Ieyasu lowered his head and said: "Right Mansion Gong, don't be careless, it's okay for Takeda to win, but Li Xiao is a famous general of the Takeda family who is chasing after Takeda Shinxuan, and he must be treated with caution!" ”

Oda Nobunaga looked at the position where Li Xiao was sitting on the left flank of the Takeda Army, which was hiding in the morning mist, and said, "Brother Mikawa, don't worry, I will never underestimate my opponent." ”

Mori Lan Maru, who was beside Nobunaga, said: "My lord, this Li Xiao doesn't know the general trend, and he has the heart to persuade peace but doesn't listen. If you have to lead the army to this long shino, and go to the place of death, such a person should be given color. ”

Nobunaga laughed, caressed Mori Ranmaru, and said, "It's still Ranmaru, you know what I'm thinking!" ”

"Lord, don't be careless!"

And Oda Nobunaga was on the side of Shibata Katsuya, and said with a solemn face: "Li Xiao is not an ordinary general, and there is a stronger army under his command, if he is a little underestimated, he will take advantage of it!" ”

Oda Nobunaga heard Shibata Katsuie's words, his long eyebrows twitched, and his eagle eyes slanted at Shibata Katsuie, and shouted: "Bastard, do I still want you to teach me to do things?" ”

When Shibata Katsuya heard this, he hurriedly took a step back and said, "Your Majesty doesn't dare, but I just remind the lord to be careful." ”

Hey!

As soon as Shibata Katsuya spoke, a sneer suddenly came from his side.

Shibata Katsuya turned his head angrily, and the person he saw sneering at was none other than Hidetaka Kawajiri.

Shibata Katsuya was furious at the moment, Kawajiri Hidetaka was no more than Nobunaga's black mother's clothes in front of the public, and he was born in a wealthy Mino family, and he dared to mock himself sarcastically.

But when Shibata Katsuya looked at Oda Nobutada, who was beside Kawajiri Hidetaka, he suppressed his anger in his heart at the moment.

Hidetaka Kawajiri is different today, he is now the lord of Mino Tsuru Castle, and he is in charge of the suppression of Li Xiao's army and the Akiyama Nobuyomo army by the Oda family's Nakasendo army.

That's it, what's more important is that Hidetaka Kawajiri is the assistant of Oda Nobutada, the young lord of the Oda family, and the celebrity in front of him.

In the two battles of the Oda family against Hokuriku and Nagashima Ichijomune, Hidetaka Kawajiri was the first in the killing list among the generals of the Oda family.

Faced with such a ruthless person as Kawajiri Hidetaka, Shibata Katsuya snorted and said, "What do you have to say with Lord Guard?" ”

Kawajiri Hidetaka said with a smile: "Li Xiao's use of troops is only in one deception, with a mere 8,000 people, pretending to be tens of thousands of troops, such a trick, it is nothing more than that." ”

At this time, Oda Nobutada also echoed, and his own Fu said: "I heard that a year ago, the two adults of Hashiba and Akechi fought in Kaga and broke Li Xiao's Hida Echichu Legion with inferior troops, so it can be seen that it is nothing remarkable. ”…,

In the face of Oda Nobutada's words, Shibata Katsuya slowly shook his head, Hashiba Hideyoshi, the battle report of Akechi Mitsuhide, people who understand the military situation know at a glance that there is a lot of water.

Oda Nobutada Motofu has only been in service for three years and lacks experience in warfare, so it is understandable to make such a judgment, but it is ridiculous that Hidetaka Kawajiri is such a battle-hardened person, and he is very arrogant again.

Kawajiri Hidetaka is gone, Shibata Katsuya can offend Nobutada, the next governor of the Oda family, so he is silent at the moment.

Anyway, let them suffer from Li Xiao, anyway, the strength advantage of the Oda Tokugawa coalition army in this battle is so huge, no matter how much Li Xiao performs, he can't turn against the sky.

Shibata Katsuya thought so.

The morning mist has now lifted.

The morning light on the horizon has shone on the Shele Plain.

From the front line of the Oda Army, the camp of the Takeda Army outside Twenty Towns has faintly moved.

Kek Lok Temple Mountain, looking down on all Oda Nobunaga, looking at the soldiers of the two armies like ants wandering, at this moment he was full of ambition, and said: "The Takeda family is destroyed in this battle, and the armies enter the position!" ”

"Oh!"

The Oda family present will agree with a bang.

In the third year of the Tensho period, on the twenty-first day of the fifth month, it was close to the hour of the hour.

Inspired by Sakai Tadaji's surprise attack on Nagashinojo in the rear of the Takeda Army, 35,000 Oda Tokugawa coalition forces were dispatched together to enter the preset battlefield.

On the preset battlefield, the Oda Army was in charge of the northern sector.

At the northernmost end are Sakuma Nobumori, Ikeda Tsuneko, Niwa Nagahide, and Takigawa Kazuki.

And the main force of the Oda Army led by Mizuno Nobumoto, Ando Fanjun, Gamo Clan, Mori Nagaka, Hashiba Hideyoshi, and Fupo Mitsuji, and Akechi Mitsuhide deployed their formations to the east of Mt. Kekurakuji.

Nobunaga's main camp was set up at Kawakami Mountain, at the rear of the northern section, with Shibata Katsuie as his lieutenant.

On the Mido Mountain side, it is Nobuo Kitabatake and Inaba Ichitetsu.

In Tokugawa, the Oda Army connected the Shindoyama position in the middle of the army, and Nobunaga's son-in-law Oda Nobunaga and Kawajiri Hidetaka were the lieutenants.

After the Oda family's army was deployed, the Tokugawa family was in charge of guarding the southern section.

The Tokugawa army was deployed with Okubo Tadayo and Okubo Tadasa's brothers, as a guerrilla to break through and as bait.

And the Tokugawa family generals Torii Tadamoto, Osuga Yashitaka, Hondo times, and Ishikawa Shumasa are deployed in Hachikenshan.

Matsudaira and Izumi Mamoru, Kannuma Dingli, and Doi Toyogo Mamoru are deployed in Takehiroguchi.

In Hachiken Mountain, after Takehiroguchi, it is Tokugawa Ieyasu's main formation Danmasayama, and in front of Danmasayama, it is the Tokugawa family general Naito Shiro Saemon, Uemura Dewa Mamoru, and Honda Tadatsu, Kamihara Yasumasa is deployed on the left and right sides of Danmasa.

In addition, Tokugawa Ieyasu also ordered Rakusada-dori to be set up as a guard to patrol along the banks of Toyokawa to prevent the Takeda army from crossing the river to attack.

In front of the Oda Tokugawa army, three anti-horse barriers were constructed, and the iron gunners hid in the anti-horse barriers, waiting for the Takeda army in front.

In the morning.

The Takeda Army's left, center, and right flank attack corps, totaling 20,000 troops, were all ready.

The Battle of Nagashino is about to break out!
