Chapter 1143: The Daimyo of the Eastern Kingdom Gather!

Chu Wu took Lu Lingqi, Su Lie and other subordinates to the outermost defense line of Fukuoka City.

Shiraki, who is good at attacking, rarely builds a fort during the period when Fukuoka Castle is about to be upgraded to a large castle.

During this period, 100,000 reinforcements came from Hirado Castle to supplement the losses of the Xia army in the previous battle for the Yuankou fortification, the battle for Iwaya Castle, and the battle.

Through the ninjas, Oda Nobunaga discovered that the Xia army was building Fukuoka Castle in Hakata Bay on the island of Kitakyushu as a seat of governance, and immediately attacked Fukuoka Castle after replenishing his forces.

The Japanese army stretched for dozens of miles, attacking from the south to the north, and the battle of Fukuoka Castle was about to break out.

When Chu Wu came to the front line of the hillside, he could see the Japanese army all over the mountain.

"That legion of the daimyo is a little weird."

Chu Wu saw a legion of a great name, and it turned out to be a banner of five colors.

In general, a regiment will not use flags of so many colors, otherwise it is easy to fall into chaos.

Zu Dashou, who followed Chu Wu's actions, said: "It is said that this is the 'five-color preparation' of the Hojo family, the daimyo of the Kanto region, who attacked the legions of Zhou Yu, Lu Xun and others in the battle of Iwaya Castle. Five flags of different colors, each performing different tasks. ”

"The Hojo family's 'five-color preparation' ......"

Chu Wu knew that the daimyo of the Warring States of Dongying, although there were not many troops, but each daimyo had more or less its own characteristics.

The Date family is characterized by the cavalry iron artillery team, the Hojo family is characterized by the "five-color preparation", and the characteristic of the Chomune department is "one collar and full of strength".

"What are the abilities of the five colors of flags?"

"Based on the Hojo family's combat records over the years, the spies estimated the capabilities of the five detachments. The green team is good at surprise attacks, the red team is good at attacking, the white team is good at marching, and the black team is good at defense. The strongest ability is Hojo Tsunari, who is in charge of Huang Bei, known as 'Dihuang Hachiman', and is good at attacking and defending. It is said that he once defended the city with 3,000 troops for half a year, blocking the Uesugi family and the Takeda family, claiming to be a coalition of 200,000 troops. ”

After the Battle of Iwaya Castle, the various generals had a basic understanding of the abilities of the Toei daimyo and shared the information they had obtained with each other.

Zhou Yu and Lu Xun were attacked by several daimyo of Chomune, Satake, and Hojo in the joint battle of Iwaya Castle, which has confirmed the accuracy of the intelligence.

"Five-color preparation", a trait that can be inherited by the head of the Hojo family, can provide different bonuses to each of the five troops of the Hojo family in a battle.

Among the five colors, the strongest is Hojo Tsunari.

"With five soldiers and horses, we can also build a five-color reserve ......"

Chu Wu didn't think so.

If he wants to piece it together, he can also piece together five colors, such as the Black Cloud Long Sword Capital, the Savaran Heavy Cavalry, the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, the Tachibana Early Strike Girl, and the Cowardly Xue Army.

Bai Qi, the newly appointed generalissimo of the East Road, with Le Yi, Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, Yu Yunwen, Lu Meng, Zheng He, Chen Luan, and Gan Ning, were also observing the military situation of Oda Nobunaga.

"In addition to turning Fukuoka Castle into a new seat on the island of Kyushu, the construction of Fukuoka Castle also had an important purpose, which was to attract Oda Nobunaga and other daimyo to attack, and then look for opportunities to severely damage them."

Li Si, who was in charge of supervising Fukuoka Castle, observed the enemy formation with many generals and said another purpose for the construction of Fukuoka Castle.

When Chutian ordered the construction of Fukuoka Castle, he had already predicted that Oda Nobunaga and other daimyo would not sit idly by and watch Fukuoka Castle upgrade to a large castle.

"My Iron Eagle Warrior, when I followed His Majesty to fight, I suffered heavy losses, otherwise I ......"

There was murder in Bai Qi's eyes.

Chu Tian went to participate in the epic battle of the "nightmare" level, and Bai Qi brought three thousand Iron Eagle Rui Shi (Ninth Order) to follow Chu Tian to fight, but was severely damaged by Li Shimin and Li Jing's legions after being strengthened by the system, and only a few hundred people came out alive.

Otherwise, Bai Qi could use three thousand iron eagle sharps to assault Oda Nobunaga's army head-on.

The elite classes of Iron Eagle Ruishi and Cowardly Xue Jun were still recruiting, so Bai Qi waited patiently.

"Yue Fei has gathered twenty or thirty thousand reinforcements in Hirado City, and they will come soon."

"Order, each legion defends, gets the military order to attack, and then attack with all its might."

"Yes!"

Dozens of herald cavalry galloped in all directions, transmitting Bai Qi's orders to the various legions.

The Xia army deployed defenses on the outskirts of Fukuoka Castle and made every effort to stop the daimyo who were heading north.

"The number of Xia troops is increasing, and if they are successfully upgraded to a large city, maybe there will be more Central Plains soldiers and horses. Our Hojo family has survived so many years of ups and downs, and it can't just be destroyed. ”

The fourth governor, the Hojo clan, participated in the upcoming Battle of Fukuoka Castle and took charge of the "Five Colors Preparation".

Like all the daimyo who went to war, the Hojo clan was worried.

The Xia army on Kyushu Island is getting bigger and bigger, and when the teleportation array in Fukuoka Castle is opened, it will be a disaster for the daimyo who have gathered on Kyushu Island.

Among the five colors of the Hojo family, the "Rehmannia Hachiman" Hojo Tsunari has gray hair.

Many Dongying daimyo and martial artists were boiled to death by Chutian.

"This time I can only bet on the fortune of the country."

Oda Nobunaga used traditional skills to gamble on the fortunes of the country.

In short, Oda Nobunaga believed that the Xia army could not be allowed to establish a large city on the island of Kitakyushu.

"The Tokugawa family, the Takeda family, the Hojo family, the Uesugi family, the Date family, the Satake family, the Nanbu family, and other eastern daimyo joined forces to form the Eastern Army and attack along the eastern side of the mountain."

"Shimazu, Otomo, Mori, Nagamune and other daimyo of the western country formed the Western Army and attacked along the western mountain."

"The general's army is a Chinese army by itself!"

"Prepare to attack!"

Oda Nobunaga gave the order for a general attack.

Oda Nobunaga did not achieve the expected results in the battle of Iwaya Castle, so he reassigned the daimyo and adjusted the deployment.

This time, he divided the legions according to the daimyo of the Eastern and Western Kingdoms and formed the Eastern Army and the Western Army!

And Oda Nobunaga, whose strength is equivalent to several daimyos, and the Fire Dragon Legion of the Sea Alliance, form the backbone!

According to Oda Nobunaga's plan, this offensive, his Chinese army took on the main pressure from the Xia army.

The Daimyo of the Western Kingdom, the Shimazu family, the Otomo family, the Ryuzoji family, and the Mori family successively participated in the defensive battle of the Motoko Fortress and the battle of Iwaya Castle, and were hit hard, so the main direction of attack this time is the Eastern Army composed of the Daimyo of the Eastern Kingdom!

The Tokugawa family, the Takeda family, the Uesugi family, and the Hojo family were all great lords of the Eastern Kingdom.

"This time, we must win!"

Oda Nobunaga pressed the knife and his fighting spirit was high.

When Emperor Xia left Kyushu, Oda Nobunaga saw it as an opportunity.

Because of the general attack order issued by Oda Nobunaga, the daimyo urgently dispatched troops and horses to plan an offensive.

The daimyos of the Eastern Kingdom gathered, and the Daimyo of Tokugawa Ieyasu, Kenshin Uesugi, Hojo Clanmasa, Tadayoshi Takeda, Date Masamune, Yoshishige Satake, Harumasa Minami, and Masayuki Sanada had solemn faces.

In addition to this, there were later daimyo such as Mogami Yoshimitsu, Ashina Moritaka, and Utsunomiya Kunitsuna.

Some weak daimyo may have only brought more than a thousand people to Kyushu Island.

The Great Xia Dynasty's attack on Kyushu Island undoubtedly alarmed the entire Dongying, whether it was a daimyo or a minamino, all of them received the Kyushu conquest order and came to assemble.

Among the Japanese army were also servant troops from Luzon to strengthen their strength.

The Bactria Dynasty used the Goryeo Kingdom as its servant army, and the Dongying daimyo used Luzon as their servant army after conquering Luzon.

"This time, the Eastern Army, by the 'Dragon of Echigo' Uesugi Kenshin, is the main general, do you have any opinions?"

Tokugawa Ieyasu, as Nobunaga's ally, was supervising the Eastern Army and elected Uesugi Kenshin as the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Army.

"Tokugawa Ieyasu, the old turtle, is really cunning, and Uesugi Kenshin is already the most capable daimyo in the eastern country after the death of Takeda Shingen. Tokugawa Ieyasu elected Uesugi Kenshin as the main general, and the Uesugi family had to act as the main force, which could not only inflict heavy losses on the Xia army, but also preserve the strength of the Tokugawa family. ”

Tadayoshi Takeda is qualified to inherit Takeda Shingen's abilities and has already seen what Tokugawa Ieyasu thinks.

"Martial arts are in the sky, armor is in front, meritorious deeds are in the foot, life is death, life is life. Before I die, do my part. ”

Uesugi Kenshin's face was pale, and his complexion was not good-looking.

Uesugi Kenshin and Takeda Shingen were the Dragon and Tiger of the Warring States, Takeda Shingen died of illness in many years of warfare, and Uesugi Kenshin had little time.

Therefore, despite seeing the intentions of the old turtle Tokugawa Ieyasu, Uesugi Kenshin did not refuse.

At the last moment of his life, he fought against the most powerful army in the world, and he had no regrets in this life.

In the battle with the Chuwu Army, the one-eyed dragon Masamune was severely injured by Tachibana Chiyo with the sword "Rachel", and his body was wrapped with gauze: "Although Emperor Xia is not on Kyushu Island, I suspect that the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty is in the new city built by the Xia army. If he can be captured alive, he may be able to force the Xia army to demolish the new city and leave Kyushu Island. ”

"What is the ability of the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty?"

"Taller than ordinary people, at his age, maybe quite good. But before he grows up, there is still a big gap with us. ”

Date Masamune did not know that Chu Wu had been strengthened, and he deduced Chu Wu's ability based on Chu Wu's performance during the Battle of Iwaya Castle.

However, the current Chu Wu has replaced the old traits with new traits, and after the level is raised, it is no longer so easy to deal with.

"If there is an opportunity, capture it alive."

Daimyo such as Tokugawa Ieyasu, Hojo Shiyasu, Satake Yoshishige, Nanbu Harumasa, and Sanada Masayuki all acquiesced to Date Masamune's proposal.

Tokugawa Ieyasu said: "If you want to capture the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty alive, you must have the courage of ten thousand enemies. I have Honda Tadatsu here. ”

Sanada Masayuki's eyes looked at his son Sanada Yukimura: "My son can fight." ”

There was a person standing behind Date Masamune: "I, Takahashi Tonghu, will definitely ask for the prince of Great Xia!" ”

Date Masamune's fiancΓ©e, Tachibana Chiyo, was snatched away by Chu Wu and was angry.

Tokugawa Ieyasu's camp, Daimyo Tokugawa Ieyasu returned to camp.

In the Warring States of the Eastern Ei, the two daimyo dragons of Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin fought for the tiger, known as the tiger of Kai and the dragon of Echigo; Later, Oda Nobunaga rose and took the world's Buwu; In the Honnoji Incident, Oda Nobunaga, who was about to unify the world, was killed by the rebel general Akechi Mitsuhide; Yushiba Hideyoshi inherited Oda Nobunaga's territory, pacified the troubled times, went to Korea, and fought against the Ming Dynasty, and died of illness.

But the final winner of the Sengoku period, the founder of the Edo period, was Tokugawa Ieyasu, who had been boiling to death all the strong men.

This is equivalent to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Sun Quan, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan and a group of princes fought for a long time, and finally let Sima Yi take the throne......

This is also one of the reasons why Dongying is interested in the Three Kingdoms, which are very similar in a sense.

Tokugawa Ieyasu put on his armor and slammed Honda Tadakatsu's hand with a dragonfly cut, following Tokugawa Ieyasu to his left and right, and the iron pieces of the armor collided from time to time and made a sound.

One of the "Four Heavenly Kings of Tokugawa", Naomasa Ii, dressed in red armor, came to see Tokugawa Ieyasu: "My lord, after the battle of Iyi Red Reserve in Iwaya Castle, there are still 3,057 people. ”

"A new Red Reserve is being recruited, and if the Kyushu campaign is unfavorable, it will retreat to Mikawa to wait for the world to change."

"Lord, the world is in danger, either we win, or Xia Jun dominates the world, how can the situation change?"

"I have learned that Emperor Xia went west and fought with the golden family that crisscrossed the grassland. If Emperor Xia is killed by the Golden Family, the world will be in turmoil. Therefore, we are not without a way out. ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu is still patiently waiting for the situation to change.

As a Sima Yi-like figure, Tokugawa Ieyasu can temporarily forbear, and even if the Kyushu campaign is defeated, he will not lose hope.

Tokugawa Ieyasu summoned a retainer: "Torii Mototada, you stay in the camp." ”

Tokugawa Mototada, one of the sixteen Tokugawa gods, saw off Tokugawa Ieyasu with a spear: "Torii Mototada will do his duty." My lord, please go out on the expedition and wish you good luck! ”
