Chapter 42 The Imperial Edict of the Imperial Palace

Eliminate the weak and check out the names of 280 strong people. These 280 people, including more than 40 exiles from Mikawa and Shinano, were included in their own Lang Dang and attached to them with their consent. At this point, the adaptation is preliminarily completed.

In the battle system, the flag-holding team was mostly used as a troop force, and the place was reorganized into more than 40 people of the Lang Party, which could just form eight flag-holding teams.

He gathered the strength of the whole army, counted the ten Shinano horses captured and given by the Suwa clan, made up twenty usable military horses, selected twenty soldiers who were good at horsemanship, and first formed a team of envoys to pass on the horses.

Then he made up sixty pairs of hanging armor and curls, mainly the Shinano Mountain Evil Party, and formed a subordinate team, which was specially used to trap and break the enemy, led by Hasegawa Hayabusa, and selected sixty long-armed and good shooting ashigaru, forming two longbow banners, led by Oi Mori Dynasty. He also elected Taiheiji Temple and the Hirayama Party, Takeda Army, and Iizong who remained under his command after the war, plus the newly incorporated disciples, a total of 53 people formed the Lang Party Group.

Because these Lang parties are all black armor and white flags, ghost face pockets, and Gao Shisheng is called 'Ghost Musashi', so in order to show awe, the title of 'Musashi Ghost Soldiers', led by Aoki Daizen and Oi Mori Dynasty, the remaining nearly 100 people are all handed over to Beizhuang Shengzhong management.

And Hamana Nobumitsu still took his own Lang Party and served as the head of the army, in fact, Hamana Nobumi wanted to recall his only son back to his side, but Asahina Shina ignored the strict military law and hinted once, but after not getting a response, he had to give up.

Eight banner-bearers, six foot soldiers, two archers, and twenty horsemen were auxiliary. Gao Shisheng asked himself that the army was not good, and he was only responsible for sitting firmly in the middle army under the protection of the flag team and commanding the joint battle. Although there were only 280 men, they had a complete range of troops, including cavalry, archery, armor, and ashigaru apprentices. After the formation was completed, Gao Shisheng deliberately reopened a military exercise, looking at the troops standing neatly and solemnly in the barracks, thinking of the difficulties when preparing for the battle in Yuanjiang, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

Gao Shisheng thought that he would soon be out of battle, his army had just completed the training, and he needed to step up the drill to deal with the upcoming battle.

So he came up with a strategy for training troops in Yuanjiang, and used money and food rewards to motivate Ashigaru, and during the training that day, the team that performed well was rewarded, and those who were lax and lazy were not punished by Ashigaru, but punished the leaders and banners of each team, and so on, and practiced every day and rehearsed the military formation.

Sometimes after the sampling of the people, the master will go to meet the Asahina Shino, talking about the distance between relatives, the two are only in-laws to climb into brothers, and there is no blood relationship, and they have not seen each other a few times in more than ten years, they are not too impressed with each other, only some vague memories, and the previous care is only out of the same genealogy of the retainers, not because of any too deep feelings.

But after this appearance, the relationship between the two became more and more harmonious, Gao Shisheng used to ask him for military law, and when no one was in private, he also began to call each other righteous brothers, both young samurai in the Junfu, the same genealogy of the retainers, and the old relationship of in-laws, naturally intended to invoke each other, in order to be able to compete for a place in the ranks of the important ministers of Junfu City in the future.

In a blink of an eye, it has been seven or eight days since Tachikawa Nakajima discussed and retreated, Gao Shisheng's injuries were not too serious, most of the wounds had already scabbed, and he didn't dare to say that he could kill the enemy in battle, at least he could wear armor and ride a horse, and command the battle.

After another two or three days, the shogunate envoys finally arrived belatedly. On the day of arrival, Nobushige Oyamada and Nobuki Asahina beat the taiko drum that summoned the generals in Kurita Castle.

Gao Shisheng was in the camp, inspected the soldiers and practiced military orders, heard the sound of drums in the city, and hurriedly took seven or eight capable Lang Dang, urged them to enter the city, and went to the castle tower to participate in the military meeting.

Chikuma, Yasumo and other gunno Ichichi became more and more popular, and Oyamada Nobushige was anxious for a long time, so when he finally waited for the shogunate envoys, of course, he immediately convened a military council to discuss the strategy of going out to suppress the army.

Gao Shisheng is no longer the acting officer of the insurance department at this moment, but a soldier in the army. Dressed in black lacquered Sanmaru armor, a black-hatted hat with a sword slanted around his waist, and wearing Aoki Daizen and Hasegawa Hayato, he rode out of the castle.

The Takeda family was in strict order, and it was forbidden to gallop horses in the castle barracks, so he dismounted at the gate of the city, temporarily handed over the horses to the guards, and led the people into the city on foot.

The city has entered martial law, no one is walking around, the drums are bursting out, the patrols are all patrolling, the neighing of war horses is heard in the distance, and a solemn atmosphere is rushing to the face.

When I arrived at the downstairs of the castle tower, I found that there were many samurai and Lang clans gathered, and it seemed that someone had already entered the table in advance, so they did not dare to rub in, so they left everyone to wait and walked in alone.

Entering the assessment room, it was found that in addition to Asahina Shinji, there were two people on the main seat, a swallow-fronted tiger head, and an elegant scribe, both of whom were blue ribbons and silver seals, and they were court officials.

The former was none other than Nobushige Oyamada, and after Takeda Nobugen retired from the army, he was appointed as a higher-level county warden and was fully responsible for clearing the war against the Hokushin Ichika.

The other person was Hosokawa Fujitaka, the deputy envoy of the shogunate, who came to the Takeda army to serve as a supervisor, nominally to urge the suppression of the Ichika, but in fact, in order to prevent the Takeda Army from harassing and coercing the Hokushin Hao clan under Echigo to switch to the banner in the name of suppressing the Ichika, and disputes arose again.

In addition, several Toe wealthy clans led by Nobuko Hamana were also there, and there were also five or six generals and soldiers from various departments in the Takeda Army.

Nobushige Oyamada, Nobuji Asahina, and Fujitaka Hosokawa smiled and signaled, and the three of them sat down.

The military order was to assemble all the generals and colonels of the army within half an hour, and after waiting for a while, half an hour arrived, and the officers of the various departments of the two armies were informed, and the assessment room was full of more than 30 people.

The Takeda Army on the left is divided into seats according to their origins, with the top being the Takeda Pedigree, the Kai Samurai in the middle, and the Shinano Pioneer at the bottom, while the Imagawa Army is all from the Enjiang Country, and they are seated according to their military ranks. was placed in second place.

The room was silent.

Nobushige Oyamada has always acted neatly, straight to the point, and listened to the samurai outside the door come in and report, "Half an hour has arrived." That is, people are named, and those who are called by name get up and answer, and the roll call is round, no one is delayed, and everyone who should come comes.

He bowed his head slightly, and said to Hosokawa Fujitaka, "Everyone has arrived, please ask Daisuke of the military department to read the Imperial Book of the Imperial Court to them." ”

Although Nobushige Oyamada and Nobuki Asahina were the main generals in the army, the ceremony could not be abolished, and the shogunate envoy was still asked to read the edict first. ”
