On the evening of the same day, Ishida Mitsunori led the Western Army to withdraw from Daheng Castle and retreat to Sekigahara for arrangement, Tokugawa Ieyasu immediately commanded the whole army to arrive at Sekigahara after hearing the news, and the two sides began to deploy overnight, until the dawn of the day, the two armies were finally arranged, and the combined strength of nearly 200,000 troops on both sides was concentrated in the Sekigahara generation, and a major war was about to break out.

Masanori Fukushima, who acted as the vanguard, was almost unable to help himself with excitement at this time, this was a great battle that the Japanese kingdom had ever counted, and what a great honor it would be to take the lead in attacking in this great war that was destined to determine the future of the Japanese kingdom! He tried his best to control his emotions and was about to give the order to attack.

But I don't want anyone to think of it with Fukushima Masanori, "This is a big battle between two parts of the world, and the first shot must be fired by our Tokugawa army." If Fukushima is allowed to take the lead, he will brag about it in the future. Naomasa Ii, who was in the rear of the Fukushima Masanori Army, did not want to give this honor to a daimyo other than the Tokugawa Army, and his bodyguard, the young lord Matsudaira Tadakichi, that is, the fourth son of Tokugawa Ieyasu, launched an attack in front of Fukushima Masanori.

Masanori Fukushima was furious by Naomasa Ii's behavior, and he was willing to be willing to leave his name in the history books as he saw the opportunity to go down in history? But what made him even more angry was still behind, and Ii Naomasa led the army to rush to the main camp of the Udaki Hide's house, fired two shots, and immediately turned around, returning the opportunity to fight a tough battle to Fukushima Masanori, and he ran to the side to confront the flank of the Western Army.

"Haha! That's interesting! Li You couldn't help but laugh out loud at this scene, it seems that both the Eastern Army and the Western Army are not very stable internally, which just makes this battle more chaotic.

With Naomasa Ii and Fukushima Masanori taking the lead, the Eastern Army and the Western Army soon collided together, and Fukushima Masanori and Utakihide fought together; Naomasa Ii and Matsudaira and Honda pointed to the flanks lined up to the north of the Ukita Army; On the right flank of the Eastern Army, Kuroda Nagamasa, Tanaka Yoshimasa, Hosokawa Tadashiko, Kato Yoshiaki, Tsutsui Seiji and other divisions also strode forward and attacked Ishida Mitsunari at Sasao Mountain; Kyogoku Kochi of the Eastern Army began to attack the Otani Army on the Fujikawa Heights, hoping to open the gap, but Otani Yoshitsugu responded calmly and did not fall behind in the slightest.

Among them, the most fierce battle is Fukushima Masanori and Utakihide here, Fukushima Masanori is one of the famous generals of the Warring States period of the "Seven Guns of Kennogaku", and the elite Owari Army who once followed Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Maeda Toshiya and others to conquer the world is fierce.

And the soldiers and horses under the command of Utakihide are not weak brigades, since he himself was appointed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi as the commander-in-chief of the attack on Korea, the art of war should not be underestimated, the two sides fought equally, and soldiers on both sides continued to wail and fall to the ground.

After such a short period of effort, thousands of samurai and ashigaru died on the battlefield, but Li You felt that it was not enough, and the battle should be more intense! Anyway, whoever dies on either side will be of great benefit to him.

The two sides fought fiercely for half an hour, and the situation of the battle finally changed, Kobayakawa Hideaki led his army to rush down Matsuo Mountain, Mori Hidemoto killed Nangong Mountain, and at the same time raided the flank of the Eastern Army, as long as they succeeded, the Eastern Army would inevitably suffer heavy losses.

In the original Battle of Sekigahara, because Kobayakawa Hideaki and Tokugawa Ieyasu had already colluded, he did not send troops, but now the appearance of Li You made him change his plan, and Kobayakawa Hideaki, who was cut off from retreat, had to rush to the flank of the Eastern Army with 5,000 soldiers under his command, and the Eastern Army was facing a great crisis.

If Mori Hidemoto and Kobayakawa Hideaki were allowed to succeed, maybe the entire Eastern Army would be in danger of collapse, which did not meet Li You's expectations, so he immediately ordered Soyoshitomo and Shimazu Yoshihiro to step forward to block these two groups of enemies, so that this battle would continue to stalemate, anyway, it was not his own men and horses who died, and the more dead and wounded, the more beneficial it was to Li You's next plan, he was neither willing to let Tokugawa Ieyasu win too early, nor did he want Ishida Mitsunari to defeat the opponent too early, so that the Eastern Army and the Western Army maintained a balance of power on the battlefield, Using Sekihara as a grinding plate to constantly crush the essence of these Japanese states is the situation that Li You is most willing to see.

Soyoshitomo and Shimazu Yoshihiro did not dare to slack off, and immediately commanded the soldiers of the Tsushima and Satsuma domains to meet them, and these soldiers from Kansai fought together, the katana quickly slashed through the world, the iron cannon roared and the projectile hit the opposite ashigaru head, and the spear stabbed forward quickly, breaking through the enemy's defenses and stabbing in the chest; The plan of the Western Army to attack the flank of the Eastern Army was blocked by Yoshitomo Munechi and Yoshihiro Shimazu, and the two armies again entered a stalemate.

After more than two hours of hard fighting, the front armies of both sides were exhausted, and in such a short period of time, tens of thousands of people on both sides had fallen on the land of Sekigahara, Tokugawa Ieyasu and Ishida Mitsunari realized that this battle was probably a disastrous victory even if it could be won, but the current situation had left them with no choice but to put more troops on the battlefield, because no matter how miserable the victory was, it was better than defeat.

"Kobayakawa Hideaki and Yoshikawa Hiroka, haven't they replied?" Tokugawa Ieyasu, who stayed in the rear, was also a little uncontrollable, Kobayakawa Hideaki's offensive was beyond his expectations, in his opinion, even if Kobayakawa Hideaki would not defect, at least he should remain neutral, but he didn't expect his offensive to be so rapid; And on the other side of the battlefield, the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family, who had already colluded with them for a long time, showed no sign of defection.

"Lord, none of them have any news." The neiying that had been agreed in advance had no reply, which made the retainers of the Tokugawa family a little unpleasant, and now that the Western Army occupies a favorable position, they have pinned their hopes on these people, but it is a pity that now Kobayakawa Hideaki and Yoshikawa Hiroke have disappointed them.

"It seems that this battle is still up to us." After all, Tokugawa Ieyasu is a generation of heroes, and these things did not throw him to feel completely desperate, he left all the descendants of the Tokugawa family behind, wanting to preserve his strength, and now it seems that it may be time for them to go into battle in person.

After saying that, Tokugawa Ieyasu asked people to show their golden fan horse mark, led the formation to leave the Taopei Mountain, and slowly pressed towards Sekigahara, seeing the golden fan of the Tokugawa family, the morale of the Eastern Army was boosted.

And Ishida Mitsunari on the high ground also lit wolf smoke to inform the various units stationed on Matsuo Mountain and Nangong Mountain, "It's time to attack, let's defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!" ”
