Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Battle of Sekigahara (1)
In the early morning, a ray of sunlight shone on the tip of Ji Qin's gentian spear, and a ninja soldier ran quickly, and after running to Ji Qin's side, he whispered: "Lord Qiyu, the five thousand Saito troops under the unbroken city have been assembled and are heading towards Matsuo Mountain!" ”
Then, under the wave of Ji Qin's hand, the ninja army rushed to the direction where he came, Ji Qin put away the gentian gun he was holding, and ordered Keijiro who was also beside him: "Keijiro, go and gather troops, five thousand Saito troops, hehe!" ”
Keijiro took the order and left, but Yoshiqin took Yoyoshi and Sugitani Zenjubo father and son to Matsuo Mountain again, standing on the top of the mountain, and from a distance, he could see that there was a force in the northeast that stretched for miles in the direction of himself and others, although he couldn't see their expressions, but judging from the speed of their running, he was obviously very excited.

As for what they were excited about, Ji Qin was clear, it was just those generals who wanted to break through themselves and gain military achievements. Ji Qin looked at the Saito army in the distance and asked casually, "What do you think should be done to defeat the five thousand Saito army at the lowest cost." ”
Yoji's eyes looked at Dongfang standing proudly without breaking through, and he didn't say a word. Sugitani Zenjubo looked at his father, then at Ji Qin's back, gritted his teeth, stepped forward and said: "My lord, I think it is better for me to wait to entrench on Mount Matsuo, condescending, and then use the advantage of iron cannons to defend Mount Matsuo, so that under the long-term attack of the five thousand Saito army, it will inevitably retreat, and it can achieve the effect that the Lord just said." ”
Ji Qin didn't reply, and said calmly: "If that's the case, I won't come out of Hachimachi Castle." ”
Sugitani's Zenjubo retreated to Yo Toji's side like a frosted eggplant, seeing that his son's suggestion was not taken, and Yo Toji didn't have any good advice, just patted Zenjubo's back, and then didn't say a word.
The wind on the top of the mountain blew for a while, and Yoji pointed to the northeast side of the mountain not far from the pass and said: "Lord, it is really majestic not to break the pass, if we have it, we will not break the pass......"
Yoji didn't say anything more, because he found that what he was going to say was not much different from what Sugitani Zenjubo said before, and it didn't make any sense to continue talking, so Yoji stopped.
Ji Qin sighed, and saw that Yamashita Keijiro had already assembled the army, so he said, "The army is assembled, let's go!" ”
"Yes!"
The three of them hurriedly followed, looking at Ji Qin's back, they all sighed secretly, and the three of them knew that this time they didn't leave any impression in Ji Qin's heart, so they could only wait for the next opportunity.
Riding on the back of the little white dragon, Ji Qin looked at the thousand ashigaru and one hundred iron cannon ninja troops in front of him, and said loudly: "Today's battle is bound to win, follow me!" I will lead you to victory and reward! ”
"Hey, hey, hey!"
Ji Qin's pre-war mobilization was very brief, but it was very effective, why fight, for Ji Qin and others, the war was for knowledge and action, and for the soldiers, it was for money and food. As a thousand standing buteru who had followed Ji Qin to occupy Takashima County, they were completely convinced of Ji Qin, as long as they were not brainless to die, they would choose to follow Ji Qin.
"The whole army obeyed the order and marched to Sekigahara Town to set up a formation!"
"Hey, hey, hey!"
The small army of 1,000 men immediately moved and marched swiftly and orderly towards the town of Sekihara, a basin of four kilometers from east to west and two kilometers from north to south, surrounded by Mt. Ibuki in the north, Mt. Sasao and Mt. Tenman in the west, Mt. Matsuo in the southwest, and Mt. Nangong in the southeast. It is an important road connecting Hokuriku Province in the northwest and Ise in the southeast, and it is an excellent venue for field battles.
Because the pass is not broken, and the terrain here is suitable for people to live in, so it is a Sekigahara town. In less than half an hour, the Hagi Army had already laid out a crane wing formation without two wings five hundred meters in front of Sekigahara Town, and one hundred iron artillery troops were at the front, divided into three columns, and next to them were two hundred bows and swords equipped with daggers.
On both sides and behind the three hundred people around is a 700 spear ashigaru equipped with a sword, and then there is Ji Qin's main formation, which is guarded by a hundred ashiba, there is no rear formation, and there is no need for a rear formation, so that the original offensive and defensive crane wing array was changed by Ji Qin to only be aggressive, and once it was attacked by the Saito army, it was bound to be defeated.
In the marching procession of the Saito Army, a young man who followed Ando Mamoru looked at the rushing team with a frown, and said worriedly: "Father-in-law, with the state of our army, when we run to Mt. Matsuo, if we are treated by the enemy, we will definitely be defeated!" ”
Ando Mamoru turned his head and said with a headache: "Hanbei, I also know what you said, but with my own strength, how can I reverse everyone's will." What's more, Hagi Yoshiko, a ninja, can think of waiting for work? ”
Hanbei shook his head, looked at Ando Mamoru and said affirmatively: "Father-in-law, you know the ability of Lord Bu Koji, why did you call everyone to a meeting after hearing that Hachiki Yoshiqin led troops into the country, although the final decision was to attack head-on and destroy Hachiki Yoshiqin in a battle, but I found that the face of Lord Bu Tsuji is worried, and the faces of the clan Bu Quan and Inaba Ittetsu-sama are also worried, if I remember correctly, the three adults met with Hachiki Yoshiqin at the beginning, and they must have a certain understanding of Kiki Yoshiqin's ability." ”
In fact, Ji Qin did not meet with the clan Buquan and Inaba Yitetsu, and the two just had some understanding of Qimu Ji Qin from the letters sent to them by Bu Guangzhi. The half-guard paused, and continued to persuade: "The three of them all showed a worried look, then this Qimu Tiannin must have something extraordinary, and it is not a big mistake to let everyone calm down." ”
After listening to Hanbei's words, Ando Mamoru pondered for a moment, then nodded, but shook his head again: "Although what you said is very right, but with the status of the three of them, it can't reverse everyone's intentions, and I alone can't help." ”
The half-soldier guard pondered for a moment, and then continued to persuade: "Father-in-law, the three of them are the three of them, plus you are definitely different, not to mention just letting everyone rest after the hurried march without breaking the pass, it will definitely not be a problem for you!" ”
Hanbei patted Ando Mamoru on the back of the ass a little, and Mamoru was very happy, laughing and said, "Well, you're right, I'll go find those three guys now!" I, the four of them, worked together, and even the lord had to respect us. ”
Shou rode his war horse and happily took the title of the book and went to the rear.
The half-soldier guard rode on the war horse, looked at the direction of Matsuo Mountain from afar, and said secretly in his heart: "Qimu Jiqin, one person destroys a county, one word to level the rebellion of a county, His Majesty the Emperor personally sealed the heavenly forbearance!" I don't know, how are you going to destroy the 8,000 Saito army! In Shimotakenaka, I'm very interested! ”
Yoshiko, who had just heard a report from a ninja soldier about the march of the 5,000 Saito Army, suddenly sneezed, then waved his hand and looked at Keijiro Maeda, who was returning from Sekihara Town.
