On the night of November 23, Nobuya Roche, his military advisor Kansuke Yamamoto and others led the 5,000-strong army of the headquarters of the Enoe-Imagawa family and quietly came to the west bank of the Oi River to set up their headquarters. In the middle of the night, fog began to rise on the west bank of the Oi River.

Originally, this time, Roche Shinra still wanted to be the real commander of the formation, after all, the previous consecutive victories had built up a strong confidence in him, and he believed that he could lead the army to victory this time.

But when he expressed his meaning to the generals of the Luo family, such as Hyakutake Kenkan and Narumatsu Nobukatsu, the generals euphemistically expressed that they hoped that this time they would follow the previous method and have him serve as the chief general on the surface, but secretly it would be more appropriate for the military advisor Yamamoto Kansuke to take full command.

Since all the generals mean this, Luo Xinliang has no choice but to comply with the opinions of the public and continue to serve as the main general on his face. After arriving on the west bank of the Oi River, because he knew that the war was coming, Luo Shishiliang had no intention of sleeping, so he leaned in front of the camp door, put the gun across his knees, and wiped the small chest cut of the treasure knife given by his father Masayo in his hand, and looked into the depths of the distance with his eyes.

Previously, as the military advisor Yamamoto Kansuke had predicted, under the strict surveillance of the Intelligence Cabinet, there were really subservient wealthy clans who secretly sent people to leak the attack plan that had been in the meeting. For these wealthy families who leaked secrets, in order to ensure the stability of the army at this time, the military advisor Yamamoto Kansuke decided to wait until the end of this war to deal with it, anyway, in the near future, the Enoe-Imagawa family will send a batch of slaves to the Luo family in the Kyushu region.

Of course, although these wealthy families were not disposed of for the time being in order to maintain the stability of the army, it was also for the safety of the army. Under the arrangement of the military advisor and him. Deliberately used the excuse that Imagawa was buried and needed reinforcements to resist the invasion of the Amano family and the Kan family. Move the forces of these nobles to the rear.

Anyway, the old and new accounts of a qiē will not be settled together until the end of this battle. After thinking of this, Luo Xinliang looked up again at the situation around the camp. At this time, campfires were lit everywhere in the camp, and most of them, except for the ashigaru soldiers who were on guard, fell asleep after the first half of the night's trek. Roche Nobura looked back left and right, and those who were called Shinjiro, Heishiro, and other common names in the Toe Imagawa family were always sleeping in the right clothes. Many people don't have tents and sleep in the open air.

As the permanent garrison of the Enoe-Imagawa family, most of them have already adapted to this life through training and previous battles with the Kira family and the Kansuga family, and Roshi Shinra also believes that as long as they go through a few more battles, these standing guards will also become the same elite soldiers as the Kyushu main family.

In this way, in a daze, the night passed. November 24, 7 a.m. The fog on the west bank of the Oi River is getting thicker and thicker. The visibility in front of Roche Shinra's field of vision does not exceed 10 meters.

However, at this time, the cold wind blowing from the northeast gradually became stronger, and according to the theory that the wind lifted the fog and dispersed. The fog was about to lift. And now it was still silent in the silence of the early morning, and only the strong wind blew every soldier of the Imagawa family army in the far river. The sound of the 'Kasa seal' behind the pocket and the flag fingers on the back still rattling, occasionally mixed with the neighing of a war horse or two.

At this time, the soldiers of the Toe Imagawa family were eating breakfast, and after this time, Nobura also integrated into the life of the samurai, and like every soldier, poured water from a bamboo tube into dry rice and sprinkled it with sesame seeds and salt. It's a quick way to eat in wartime, quick and easy, and ready to deal with sudden wars.

At this moment, the three horsemen went straight to the main formation, and one of them had an arrow behind his back. Many of the soldiers in the camp saw this scene, and they hurriedly dropped the rice balls in their hands, took their guns and stood up. Some people wondered if the Einsatzgruppen had driven the enemy so quickly after engaging the forces of the Suruga Imagawa family and the Hojo family.

And at this time, the three detectives also came to Roche Shinra and Yamamoto Kansuke and others, only to see one of them report:

"Report, the enemy is approaching rapidly!"

"Good! It's hard work, you can wait and rest and heal. This time, it was not Roche Nobuya who answered, but Kansuke Yamamoto, "Order, start preparing for war immediately!" ”

After a night of preparation last night, at this time, the camp of the Imagawa family of Toe was surrounded by earthen ramparts. Roads are also heavily fenced, and beyond them are hastily harvested rice paddies or empty wasteland that farmers use for composting. Except for a few low-lying and waterlogged places, it is very suitable for large corps operations.

After receiving the order to prepare for battle, the phalanxes of the army of the Toe Imagawa family began to move, the movement of military horses, the footsteps of soldiers, and the arrangement of them according to the pre-arranged positions to meet the enemy. Faintly, the soldiers of the Toe Imagawa family could already hear the sound of a sparse noise like a rising tide in the fog ahead. In the overlapping fog, people can also be seen shuttling back and forth.

Suddenly, the strong wind in the southeast direction suddenly turned stronger, and the thick fog in front of the soldiers of the Imagawa family in Toe was completely blown away, as if the curtain had been rolled up. Luo Shi Xinliang clearly saw that the countless soldiers in front of him were rapidly advancing towards the main army of the Enoe Imagawa family like a black line.

Now in front of the array of the Imagawa family's army in Toe, there is the iron artillery team of the general Warring States iron cannon that Luo Shinra followed the instructions of his father Masara in the letter, and spent a lot of money to deploy it.

At present, the iron artillery team of about 100 people of the Yuanjiang Imagawa family stood in a column, and they all knelt down and raised their guns. As the advance of the alliance forces of the Suruga Imagawa family and the Hojo family entered the range of the iron cannon, the leader of the iron cannon team waved the sword in his hand and shouted: "Fire." ”

The muzzle of the iron cannon spewed flames, and the camp of the Suruga Imagawa family and the Hojo family alliance at this time was a little chaotic, so under the fire of the iron cannon, many soldiers immediately rushed to the ground.

In fact, this time, the alliance between the Suruga Imagawa family and the Hojo family did fall for Yamamoto Kansuke's woodpecker method. For several days in a row, they were fully prepared for the attack of the Imagawa army as the intelligence said, but the army of Imagawa had been delayed. Over time, even though Hojo Tsusunari kept reminding him, everyone including Imagawa Shin relaxed.

So, just last night, when many people in the camp of the Gaogen Mountain coalition army were still dreaming, they were really attacked by the army of the Yuanjiang family led by Bai Wuxian in the early morning when they were the most relaxed.

In a panic, the coalition forces immediately fell into a panic, so these coalition soldiers instinctively came to the bank of the Oi River in the east, after all, as long as they crossed the Oi River and reached the east bank, they would return to the territory of the Suruga Imagawa family, where there was also a team of coalition logistics troops, as long as they got there, they would be safe.
