Fortunately, the Imagawa family in Enoe Province had already made preparations, so Imagawa Burial Zero immediately issued a mobilization order in Hishima Castle under the command of Roshi Nobuyoshi, calling on those subservient nobles to immediately rush to Suwahara Castle on the west bank of the Oi River at the junction of Enoe Province and Suruga Province.

And Luo Xinliang's face was also solemn, he was in the hall before, staring at the love knife "small chest cut" given by his father Zhengliang, and then pulled it out, and the cold knife light floated throughout the room, "The knife must not be broken, the descendants of the Luo family must not abandon their martial arts, life and death, all in this battle." ”

Subsequently, he summoned all the retainers in the vicinity of Yinma City at this time to the large wide room of Yinma City, and when all the retainers were all seated in the large wide room, Luo Shi Xinliang and Imagawa Burial Zero paced in together, and then led everyone to turn, facing the family treasure: small chest cut and armor Jin Xiao Zha Sewei, and held a "three offerings" ceremony.

In front of the family treasure, Nobuya and Imagawa offered "Ta Tsu Tsu" (a very thin slice of meat), Katsukuri and Kombu, and then drank them all in different cups of large, medium, and lower wine, and then smashed them to pieces, raised the gunzen and bows and arrows, and shouted "Our army will win!!" All the retainers immediately responded in unison, and the sound shook the hall. This ceremony was held in accordance with the advice of the military advisor Yamamoto Kansuke, in order to boost the morale of the retainers.

After the ceremony, Nobuyra led a total of 3,000 men (including 600 standing troops and 2,400 provisional troops) from Enoei Province to Suwahara Castle on the banks of the Oi River on November 6, 1561 (1561).

At the same time, the lords of the Imagawa family in Enoe Province. After receiving the summoning order for the burial of Imagawa. Instinctively, I felt the breath of death before the great war. They all offered their vows to kill the enemy in front of the shrines, and then took the retainers of the Lang Party and hurried to Suwahara Castle to assemble.

Just when the wealthy families responded to the call of Imagawa Funeral Zero and mobilized the troops in the territory to rush to Suwahara Castle to assemble, there was a controversy in Iyi's house because of this.

The reason for the controversy is that the retainers think that the governor of the family, Ii Naoto, should sit at home this time, and as for the call for the burial of the lord Imagawa, it is enough to leave it to the important ministers in the family to respond. Of course, the real reason in everyone's hearts is. At this time, the governor was only fourteen years old, a little young, and a woman, they were not at ease with this governor from the bottom of their hearts, if it weren't for the personal support of the lord of the country, Imagawa burial, they might not have chosen Jing Yi Naohu as the family governor, and now they finally got used to the fact that Jing Yi Naohu was the family governor, and they really didn't want to let the young female family governor have any changes in this war, so that the Jing Yi family, which had finally settled down, fell into chaos again.

However, for the advice of the retainers, Jing Yi Naohu directly refused. Even though the three of Jing Yi, who were important ministers in the family, came to the door to persuade them individually, she still insisted on the decision to participate in this battle.

Next. In the complaining eyes of many retainers, the Ii family army of more than 200 people (including more than a dozen female soldiers, who were some of the more than 50 female soldiers selected by Ii Naotora and Luo Shishinra) officially rushed to Suwa Hara Castle.

It can be said that among the more than 200 people, except for those female soldiers personally selected by Jing Yi Naoto, and several retainers secretly arranged by the Luo family to support Jing Yi Naohu, the rest of the people will have a very strange feeling in their hearts after seeing that their chief general is the female lord.

However, Ii Naohu is also self-aware, so under the secret of several Luo family retainers, she decisively declared that as long as she did a good job on the battlefield, she would be rewarded, and even if she beheaded the enemy on the battlefield, she would also promote them to samurai. As the saying goes, there must be brave men under the heavy reward, and in the face of such a reward, these troops no longer remember whether their general general this time was male or female.

Some of these peasants and soldiers saw that there were so many rewards and the temptation of the future, and they even immediately wept with gratitude, and felt that this female lord was indeed a figure worth following. As a result, the army of more than 200 people of the Ii family finally marched to Suwa Hara Castle under the leadership of Ii Naotoka.

And three days ago, with the Imagawa burial zero issued a mobilization order, Luo clan Nobuya also officially sent troops from the city of Yinma, as for the lord of the country, Imagawa funeral zero is to stay in the city, ready to deal with the very likely to run out of the rear and the side of the mountain forest to make trouble when the alliance of the Toe Imagawa family and the Suruga Imagawa family is fiercely fighting.

Although Imagawa Burial Zero's status in the Enjiang Kingdom at this time is more like the puppet of the Luo family, in Imagawa Burial Zero's view, he has only two wishes in this life, the first wish is to reunite with his mother, Mrs. Jing Yiju, and then marry his childhood sweetheart Ah Chun, and the second wish is to take revenge on the Imagawa family, in order to solve the cruelty he has had to the Imagawa family in his heart for so many years. Now, these two wishes have been fulfilled, so he basically has nothing to ask for except to continue to live with his mother and wife, so he doesn't mind this so-called puppet status at all.

What's more, he himself is a smart person, and with what he has seen and heard in the Luo family in Kyushu, he naturally knows very well that once he has any other ideas with the help of this so-called lord of the country, then he believes that he will soon lose his current status, and even be separated from his mother and wife from now on, thus affecting his mother and wife, so he is very satisfied with the status he has obtained now.

Now, Imagawa Shin's damn guy plans to affect his good life with his mother and wife again, and he naturally has to take the initiative to take a little responsibility to protect his own interests, so he has taken on the task of dealing with the two clowns of the Kan family and the Amano family.

As for Luo Xinliang and Yamamoto Kansuke's side, since the departure, the wealthy clans and town guards along the way who were attached to the Imagawa family of Enoe Province also led troops to join them, which made Luo Shinra's troops appear more powerful, but it also affected the speed of their march, and was even caught up by the Ii family army of Ii Naotor, who came later.

After learning that Ii Naotora had arrived, Roche Nobura immediately summoned Ii Naotora and others to his side.

In fact, it was a long time ago. Some of the retainers of the Ii family sent people to Yinma Castle to ask for Imagawa burial and ordered Ii Naotora to stay at home. Don't take part in this campaign. Now, Sichuan Burial Zero simply made the shopkeeper and sent the envoy of the Jing family to Luo Xinliang.

And after learning of the request of the envoy of the Jing family, Luo Shi Xinliang smiled bitterly and said that he could not do anything about it. As Luo Shira, who has been with Naotora Ii for a while, he is very aware of Naotohu's stubborn character.

Now that Ii Naotora has made a decision, and even the joint advice of his retainers is useless, Roshi Nobuya also knows that he can't persuade him, and even if he gives an order, Ii Naotora will return home. Naota Ii will also come directly to the convergence.

After meeting with the people of the Jing Yi family led by Jing Yi Naoto, Jing Yi Naoto, who was beside Jing Yi Naohu, watched the march of the army but couldn't help but sigh and said:

"The army of my Imagawa family in Yuanjiang Province is really mighty!"

After hearing this, Luo Zhengliang glanced at Jing Yi's direct relatives. In his opinion, Jing Yi Naoqin is also a little unlucky, originally the people of the Jing Yi family decided to promote him as the governor of the Jing Yi family, but because of his support for Jing Yi Naohu, he lost the opportunity to inherit the family governor. And in order to appease Jing Yi's direct relatives, Luo Shi Xinliang also directly stated that he would recruit Jing Yi's direct relatives to have a child who was not born at that time as a small surname (this was actually the decision of his father Masashi).

Although Luo Shi's act deeply touched Jing Yi's direct relatives, he was also worried because of this, after all, if his wife gave birth to a daughter (the minor surnames recruited by the Sengoku daimyo were all boys). So that the son of Shinliang looks embarrassed, so what should I do? In case this even angered Prince Shinrashi. Those good things have turned into bad things!

Just when Jing Yi was worried, his wife finally gave birth to a boy very aggressively, which not only made Jing Yi's previous worries disappear, but also was praised by Xinliang Gongzi, and even gave a "Zheng" word to his son, since then, Jing Yi's sister-in-law has not yet been served, and his name has been determined to be Jing Yi Naomasa.

After this incident, Jing Yi Naoqin can be said to have become a die-hard supporter of Luo Shi Xinliang, and then accepted Luo Shi Xinliang's assignment, returned to Jing Yi's house, and concentrated on assisting Jing Yi Naoto.

At this time, after Jing Yi Naoqin finished sighing, Jing Yi Naohu also nodded slightly, and she looked at the army that was marching together beside her. I saw that the Imagawa family of Enoe Province was advancing with their heads down, and the sound of armor and horses' hooves was like a surging river.

The messengers (heralds) with the 'red bird pattern' flag and fingers drove the horses under the seat to and from the front and back of the army, conveying orders.

Not far behind him is the flag team of Prince Nobuna, and as the symbol of the general of the main camp, the flag seal of Prince Nobura 'Black Eagle' is towering above (this is one of the measures taken by Nobuya to slowly integrate the elements of the Luo family into the Imagawa family).

The banner reads, 'It is as fast as the wind, its Xu is like a forest, its invasion is like fire, and it is as immovable as a mountain', and these sixteen characters were selected by Prince Shinra from Sun Tzu's Art of War, and it is said that the Takeda family of Kai also has such sixteen characters.

Ii Naoto's equestrian skills were already good at this time, and she followed the side of Prince Shinra while listening to the discussions of many other wealthy families.

Among them, the new governor of the nearby Iio family was facing the prince of Nobora and said, "My lord, the army that went out this time is nearly 5,000 people, when has the Imagawa family of Ene Province had such a majestic force in the past?" The thought of the upcoming decisive battle with the Imagawa family in Suruga made the blood of a samurai boil in my body. ”

"Hehe, not nearly 5,000 people, but a whole army of 7,000 people, and after arriving at Suwahara Castle, there are still 2,000 defenders there." Roche Shinra corrected with a smile. In fact, there should be about 8,000 people in the army this time, in addition to the 3,000 troops directly under him that he was leading at this time, and the 2,000 directly subordinate defenders in Suwa Hara Castle, there should be a total of about 3,000 people after the army gathered by the wealthy clans from all over the country.

In this way, as the army continued to join the army, when the army arrived outside Suwahara Castle on November 10, there were more than 7,000 people, and there were still troops of the Hao clan in the Mikawa Province region that was a little farther away.

As for the Suruga Imagawa and Sagami Hojo coalition forces, they had all crossed the Oi River at this time and set up camp on a mountain near Suwahara Castle, so the two sides immediately confronted each other.

At this time, Roshi Nobuya didn't want to fight head-on with the Suruga Imagawa and Sagami Hojo coalition forces in a hasty manner, otherwise he had spent a lot of manpower and material resources to take advantage of the autumn harvest time to strengthen Suwahara Castle, which would be meaningless at all.

In the ground, there are only two ways to enter the inner part of Enjiang Province from the vicinity, one is to take the narrow shore along the coast, and the other is to pass from Suwahara Castle. For the Suruga Imagawa and Sagami Hojo coalition forces, it is very uneconomical to take the coastal road, because the coastal area there has been completely blocked by the naval army sent by Luo Shinra at this time, and the strength of the Suruga Imagawa family's naval army is very average, and it can only barely protect the safety of the Suruga coast, but it is absolutely impossible and dare not come to fight against this part of the Luo family's Third Naval Army Standing Fleet.

As a result, the combined forces of Suruga Imagawa and Sagami Hojo could only take the road of Suwa Hara Castle.

As for Roche Nobuya, as long as he guards Suwa Hara Castle, which is the key point of the passage, there are thousands of guards in it, why not play a little bit of its role? Imagawa Shin and Hojo Tsunari, your troops came from afar, and they were blocked under the castle of my Imagawa family in Yuanjiang, so let's be tired. Subsequently, you will lead the new force of the dragon and tiger to defeat you and others in one fell swoop.

Roshi Nobuya is a shrewd man, but Hojo Tsunari, who has been in battle for a long time since he was a teenager, is not a fool, he did not storm Suwa Hara Castle, but persuaded Imagawa Shin to lead a large army, all the way to the great parade, and actually ran to the west of Suwa Castle to camp on Mt. Takane.

Roche Nobuyo and Yamamoto Kansuke, who learned about this, couldn't believe their ears:

"This Imagawa clan is really with Hojo Tsunari, and he is bold enough!"
