"Father!"

Chu Wu woke up from his sleep and couldn't help but exclaim.

His father's great achievements made Chu Wu feel invisible pressure.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, we will soon be approaching Iwaya Castle, and at this time we should send scouts to explore at least ten miles forward."

Zhuge Liang saw Chu Wu wake up, so he reminded Chu Wu.

"I dreamed that my father was in danger, and he would die for life."

Chu Wu seemed to sense something.

Emperor Xia Chutian had not returned for a long time, which made Chu Wu worried.

In the past, Chutian participated in epic battles such as "The Yellow Turban Rebellion", "The Battle of Mobei", "The Battle of Kunyang", "The Battle of Jingkang", and "The Battle of Julu", and he could return in a month or two.

However, this time, the lords of Wokotai, Tuo Lei and other lords returned to the main world one after another, but Chu Tian was not heard from.

Zhuge Liang said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, dreams and reality are often very different, so you don't have to take them seriously. ”

"If it's the same as the military advisor said, then that's fine."

Chu Wu rode on Sa Lu Zi and continued to lead his troops to attack Iwaya Castle.

"Father......?"

Tachibana Chiyo overheard Chu Wu's title, thought that Chu Wu could command tens of thousands of soldiers and horses at a young age, and quickly thought of Chu Wu's identity - the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty.

This inference made Tachibana's eyes widen.

The crown prince of the Heavenly Empire actually drove the expedition in person.

It seems that he was also the one who attacked the beach in Shikashima.

Tachibana Chiyo was a little incredulous, her allegiance was actually to the prince of the Celestial Empire.

The Tachibana family wanted to be a retainer of the royal family, but it was the Tachibana family who climbed high.

Ahead, Yang Xingmi led the Black Cloud Long Sword Army as the vanguard to investigate, and encountered a team of ninjas who were scouting.

The ninja troops took the lead in attacking, and the dense cross nails were thrown at Yang Xingmi, making a sound of breaking the air!

Yang Xingmi and the Black Cloud Long Sword Army shook the long swords in their hands and flew the cross nails that shot over!

The crucifix strikes the blade of the sword, and sparks fly!

"Formation, kill!"

Yang Xingmi knew that the ninjas were the scout troops of the Dongying Daimyo, and their ability to fight in formations was not as good as the Black Cloud Long Sword Army, so there was no need to be afraid!

The Black Cloud Sword Army has been on the battlefield for a long time, and it is uniform, and it comes forward to fight with the ninja and cut down the Iga ninja!

The Iga ninja is also a high-level soldier, and like the Iron Eagle Scout and Tanma Chi, it belongs to the reconnaissance force, but it is not as good as the Black Cloud Sword Army, which is not as well organized as the army, and is heavily damaged by the Black Cloud Long Sword Army, with dozens of dead and wounded.

Among the Iga ninjas, the leader Hattori Hanzo swung his sword, and the cold sword struck several Black Cloud Sword soldiers.

The Iga ninja beside him was wiped out by the military formation of the Black Cloud Long Sword Army, Hattori Hanzo's own force could not save the situation, and more and more Black Cloud Long Sword Army arrived in the rear, Hattori Hanzo could only take out the cross nail from his arms and splash the cross nail at the pursuing Yang Xingmi.

Yang Xingmi's long sword cut in a circle, blocking most of the cross nails, but there were still a few cross nails that hit the armor, almost breaking the defense!

"Crooked."

Yang Xingmi pulled out the cross nail.

During the reconnaissance, the Black Cloud Longsword Army clashed with several ninja squads, and many Black Cloud Longsword Army were stabbed by the strange weapons of the Iga ninjas.

Yang Xingmi went back and reported to Chu Wu: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the number of Dongying scouts called 'ninjas' in front is increasing, and we are already approaching the main force of the enemy army. ”

"On our west side are Lu Xun's foot soldiers, and Le Yi and Geng Yi's troops are further west, and the 'ninjas' found appear along the mountain, could it be that the Japanese army is in a goose-shaped formation, flanking our hundreds of thousands of troops?"

Chu Wu spread out a topographic map from Hakata Bay to Iwaya Castle and marked the place where the ninja appeared.

Hakata Bay is flanked by mountains, which converge from north to south, with the Xia army in the north and the Japanese army in the south.

If the Japanese army had been deployed along the mountain and had amassed heavy troops at Iwaya Castle, it would indeed be possible to flank the Xia army moving south from both sides.

Zhuge Liang's expression was a little surprised, Chu Wu had grown up very quickly, and he had already seen Oda Nobunaga's strategic intentions: "Presumably, Le Yi and the others have also noticed it." ”

Sure enough, both Chu Wu and Le Yi and Lu Xun's legions, after discovering that Oda Nobunaga was trying to completely annihilate the Xia army heading south, stopped marching and began to attack the Japanese army stationed in the mountains.

"General, our plan has been discovered."

"It can only be pressed by the whole army!"

Oda Nobunaga mobilized all the troops gathered on Kyushu Island at the first time and counterattacked with all his might!

The Japanese army of Iwaya Castle is in full swing!

"Takeda, Sanada, Date, Suzuki, attack along Higashiyama!"

"Maori, Shimazu, Ryuzoji, Otomo, attack along Nishiyama!"

"Tokugawa, Hojo, Uesugi, Nagamune Ibu, Mogami, Ukita, Nanbo, Satake, attack head-on with me!"

Oda Nobunaga deployed an offensive force, and in addition to the Tachibana family, he gathered the forces of seventeen major daimyos, including himself.

Brand of the Sea Alliance led the Fire Dragon Legion, a total of 100,000 people, to help Oda Nobunaga: "Your Yuankou fortifications are just a joke, and only by defeating the Xia army head-on can they retreat." ”

Oda Nobunaga drew his saber "Hasebe Kunishige": "If you want to defeat the Xia army, you must be prepared to die in battle." ”

The Takeda, Sanada, Date, and Suzuki families attacked along the eastern side of the mountain, while Chu Wu, the prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, went south along the east side of the mountain after taking Tachibana Mountain Castle lightly.

The Takeda family governor is the player Takeda Tadayoshi.

Tadayoshi Takeda worked for Takeda Shingen, the "Tiger of Kai", and after Takeda Shingen died of illness, he inherited the characteristics of Takeda Shingen's "Wind Forest Volcano", and was designated by Oda Nobunaga as the governor of the Takeda family.

The general of the Takeda family, Yama Prefecture Masakai, commanded the red cavalry with red bodies, and followed Takeda Tadayoshi to fight.

The last commander of the Chibei cavalry, the elder brother of Changjing in Shan County, Fan Fu Huchang, was killed by Wang Yanzhang, a military general of the Han Empire (the Third National War), and after Changjing took over his brother's position, he hated the Central Plains to the core.

"Don't be blinded by hatred, look for the right time to strike."

Takeda Tadayoshi has the ability to be recognized by Takeda Shingen and Oda Nobunaga, and basically inherits Takeda Shingen's ability, so he gains the loyalty of Takeda's retainers, and he reminds Yamaken Masakai.

Yama Changjing and the Chibei cavalry, combined with the "Wind Forest Volcano" characteristic of the family master, will turn the tide.

The SSS-class trait "Wind Forest Volcano" (wielded: Sun Wu, Takeda Shingen) has four statuses, which can be switched between the main generals according to the needs of the situation, and can be switched twice a day:

Status 1, Swift as the Wind - +10% March Speed, +20% Forced March Speed, +15% Battlefield Maneuver Speed, -20% Adverse Terrain Impact.

State 2, its Xu Rulin - the military formation maintains +40%, and it is not easy to produce unfavorable states such as chaos or fear.

Status 3: Plundering like Fire - Legion Attack +30%, Attack Speed +10%, Enemy Morale Drop +15%.

Status 4, Immovable - Defense +40%, morale drop speed -30%.

This is a practical combat characteristic that can flexibly handle various situations, and Takeda Nobunaga learned from "The Art of War".

Takeda Tadayoshi inherited Takeda Shingen's ability, so it was a great bonus to the Takeda Legion, so Oda Nobunaga also had to keep a fief for the Takeda family.

"The Sanada family was originally a retainer of the Takeda family, and the Sanada family can be trusted."

In addition to Yama Prefecture Masakai, Sanada Masayuki and Sanada Yukimura were originally military commanders of the Takeda family, and Sanada and his son have always been very popular in Toei, and Sanada Yukimura, who is known for his loyalty, is known as the first soldier of the Warring States.

So this time, Oda Nobunaga arranged for the Takeda family and the Sanada family to be soldiers and horses all the way.

In addition, the "one-eyed dragon" Date Masamune and the military advisor Katakura Kojuro led the most famous horse artillery team of the Date family to participate in the battle.

Date Masamune looked at the fourth daimyo of the East Road with one eye, his pupils couldn't help but dilate, and he was extremely surprised by the identity of the arriving daimyo: "It's the Saga Iron Cannon Clan, Suzuki Shigehide, Suzuki Sadai, they are difficult guys......"

Shigehide Suzuki is not so much a daimyo as he is actually a mercenary leader on the Kii Peninsula during the Warring States period of the Toei period, who worked for the various Warring States daimyos.

As long as they are willing to give money, they will sell their lives, and Suzuki Shigehide fights fiercely and is good at using firearms, which makes the sixth day demon king Oda Nobunaga suffer.

This time, Oda Nobunaga spared no expense and hired Saga iron guns, which shows that Oda Nobunaga attached great importance to this battle.

There are several people who are the "one-eyed dragon" Date Masamune is unwilling to provoke, and one of them is Shigehide Suzuki.

This kind of unfathomable professional mercenary leader, with firearms, will give any daimyo a headache when he fights with him.

Takeda, Sanada, Date, Suzuki, the four daimyos marched together.

Every daimyo who can survive until now, the big waves and sands, have at least one hole card, such as the Takeda family's "Wind Forest Volcano", the Akabei cavalry, the Date family's horse iron artillery team, and the Suzuki family's Saga iron artillery team.

Shigehide Suzuki, carrying an arquebus, looked indifferently at the one-eyed dragon Date Masamune, Takeda Tadayoshi, Sanada Masayuki and others.

In the eyes of the leader of the mercenaries of the Warring States, these big names that are feared by the people of Dongying are just a matter of his shot.

The gods of the Saga Iron Cannon are haunted, and the battle is fanatical, and they will not be afraid in the face of the Daimyo.

In the eastern mountains, Chu Wu led 40,000 troops to the south.

The effect of "breaking the kettle" is about to wear off.

On the afternoon of the first day, Chu Wu occupied the beach opposite Shika Island and broke the Yuan Kou fortification, and on the second day, Chu Wu surrendered without a fight and forced to land on Tachibana Castle.

Then marched south, and another day passed.

Without the effect of "breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat", the combat power of the Chu Wu Legion will decrease, and the morale will also begin to decrease.

However, Chu Wu also knew that "Breaking the Cauldron and Sinking the Boat" was one of the characteristics of the heavens, and the effect could not be permanent, and in a normal state, he must also have the ability to defeat a strong enemy.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, there are a large number of cavalry and samurai ahead!"

"It seems that they can't wait for us to get into the encirclement and take the initiative to attack...... Camp and fight! ”

Chu Wu drew his sword and commanded 40,000 people, mainly Zu Dashou, to form a defensive formation to resist the counterattack of Oda Nobunaga and other daimyos.

At the end of Zu Dashou's sight, the Takeda family's Chibei cavalry and the Wind Forest Volcano Banner appeared!

"An army from the Central Plains!"

The retainers of Takeda, including Changjing of Shanxi, attacked along the mountain, and also saw Chu Wu's 40,000 soldiers and horses.
