A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Chapter 126 14. Heaven helps me but not thieves

The result of the military discussion among the officials in Yamauchi is obvious. Everyone, including Koheita, believes that the forward attack method can be used. Anyway, there are more people and fewer people, so there is no need to take any dangerous moves. The upright soldiers fight the upright soldiers.

After Yamauchi Yoshiharu and Yamauchi Yoshikatsu decided on the strategy, it was time to observe the basic qualities of a commander. As long as you see him sitting on the mat with his butt sticking out, waiting to scold Fang Qiu, you can basically conclude that he is a hot chick, just waiting to abuse him. If you see a commander-in-chief wandering around non-stop with pen and paper or followers, you should take this kind of commander seriously.

why? Because both father and son are cautious commanders, as the father, Yamauchi Yoshiharu also has to teach his son to fight. After the military meeting is over, it is obviously necessary to observe the situation on the battlefield. This is the basis for a general to be familiar with the mountains and terrain of the battlefield.

Koheita did not ride Hyakudan, but still rode the Kiso horse. Together with Yamauchi Yoshiji, Yamauchi Yoshikatsu and his son, and some samurai, they observed on the other side of the Usan River. Everyone pointed and expressed their opinions. Where you can cross the river, where you can ambush troops, and where there is open space where you can easily deploy troops.

At the strategic level, Xiao Pingtai may know the direction of some historical events in advance because he traveled through time, but when it comes to the actual tactical level, he is basically clueless and can only listen later. Listen and memorize at the same time. It is very valuable to learn the combat skills of the cold weapon era. Many of the teachings are passed down from father to son through words and deeds, and it is almost as if they are secrets that are not passed down. (Our Marshal Qi is better. He is a good fighter. He can also write military books and strategies. Once he writes them, people can understand them at a glance. He is a true military god!)

It took about more than an hour of galloping, stopping and stopping, to see all the small places in Shimojo. Everyone had a good idea of ​​the terrain and the terrain of the battlefield, so they went back to camp to prepare for the battle.

Yamauchi Yoshikatsu was not the chief general this time, and was only assigned a few banners, and several hundred people were gathered together to make a backup general (some of the bannermen were drawn to Yamauchi Yoshikatsu, so Uncle Tsunara was added to Yamauchi Yoshikatsu) own team). Theoretically, Koheita and Yamauchi Yoshikatsu are now on the same level, hehe.

The two men rode horses along the Wan River, accompanied by several escorts and attendants, and continued to ride freely.

"How are you feeling now, Zuo Matou?" Xiaoheita asked Yamauchi Yoshikatsu casually.

"I'm a little nervous, but not nervous. I met the Sagami lion at the foot of Odawara Castle with my adopted brother (Uesugi Terutora) before. I think the tiger in Kai will not be stronger than him." Yamauchi Yoshikatsu did not look at Koheta , but watched the long Usan River flowing quietly into the distance, and then merged into the Chikuma River.

"Army A is a powerful army that defeated more than 2,000 troops of our clan eight years ago." Xiao Pingtai reminded him, but he didn't mean anything else.

"Are you scared, Xiaoheita?" Yamauchi Yoshikatsu turned to look at Xiaoheita, his eyes burning brightly, and he revealed determination at the same time.

"I'm afraid, but I'm not afraid. We have the advantage of our army, and we have unparalleled brave generals like Saburo Oishi, and wise strategists like Kitahata University. We have both civil and military talents and are unparalleled in the world." Xiaoping praised the Yamauchi family very well.

"Hahahahahaha, Heita-chan, you are still fooling me here. Is this all your knowledge?" Yamauchi Yoshikatsu looked like you are teasing me, and lightly hit the horse's buttocks with a riding crop.

"This morning I saw Army A on the other side of the river. They were in neat formations with clear flags. The three armies did not hear any noise. Thousands of people were as one. Judging from the surface, it seems to be stronger than our army." Xiao Pingtai did not hide his opinion.

Yamauchi Yoshikatsu nodded and motioned for Heita to continue. "What else? It shouldn't be just these, right? I don't believe you only have this."

Xiao Pingtai smiled and shook his head, "Zo Matou, why do you need to ask any more questions? Isn't it good that everyone knows everything?"

"I just want to confirm what I think in my heart. Come and listen to me." Yamauchi Yisheng spread his hands, what can you do to me.

"The total number of enemies in front of us is 4,000, and 90% of them are from all the nationalities belonging to the Ka Army. They are not direct descendants of Kai from Takeda Daisen at all. From the first glance, they are already slightly better than the Yamauchi Army. If Takeda Daisen's Ka Army headquarters comes "It's hard to predict the outcome," Xiao Pingtai said a little helplessly. After all, sometimes the facts are harsh and difficult to hear, and no one wants to hear them.

"Well, in my opinion, that's the case. The A-Army Headquarters must be exactly the same as my brother-in-law's Echigo Reishi. If one of them is not good, it is very likely to fall into a bitter battle." Yamauchi Yoshikatsu nodded. He is not that kind of dim-witted. An incompetent and arrogant person, he was born in the martial arts family and traveled to Kyoto. His knowledge and magnanimity surpassed most of the famous masters of this era.

"Why try to increase others' prestige? They have one head and two legs, and they can make flowers?" Xiaoping felt a little heavy, and the more he talked, the more he promoted Takeda Jun, and he even wanted to praise others to the sky.

"Yes, if we are all depressed, how can the Ashigaru have the courage?"

"Wu Zi said: "In every battlefield where soldiers are fighting, and where corpses are erected, if you must die, you will live, and if you are lucky, you will die. A good general is like sitting in a leaky boat, lying under a burning house, making the wise unable to plan, and the brave unable to do so. Being angry means you can be attacked by the enemy. Therefore, it is said: The greatest harm in using troops is hesitation, and the disasters of the three armies are caused by suspicion." The words of the sages are very precious, and I share my encouragement with you. "Xiao Pingtai chanted these words slowly.

"It makes sense, Mrs. Xiaoping, please quickly write it down and give it to me." "My two strokes of handwriting are so bad. Just listen to it." The two high-fived each other and encouraged each other.

Yamauchi Yoshikatsu gently whipped the horse's buttocks with his riding crop, and the two sped up and turned back to the camp.

"Odaira, please be optimistic. This piece of plain land will also belong to my Yamauchi family. We will definitely defeat Takeda Daisen and have a prosperous military fortune." Yamauchi Yoshikatsu pointed at this small piece of plain land, full of confidence in him.

Xiao Pingtai looked at his heroic appearance, and then looked at the small plain beside the river. I originally wanted to lament that tens of thousands of people were fighting for their lives, but all they wanted was such a small territory. But then I thought about it, I don’t even have such a small territory, so what qualifications do I have to judge others. So he stopped thinking about this and followed Yamauchi Yoshikatsu.

"Then I wish Zuo Ma Tou Ban a victory." Xiao Pingtai bowed his hands to Yamauchi Yisheng and laughed loudly.

"By the way, Zuomatou, what is the name of this plain? Is it just called Shimojo?"

"Oh, Shimojo is the name of the village. As for this plain, it seems to be called Uedadaira, which is not very famous." Yamauchi Yoshikatsu answered casually.

"Ueda Hirano!" Xiaopingta nodded.

After walking a few more steps, Xiao Pingtai suddenly burst into a startling laugh.

"God will help me but not the thief, God will help me but not the thief!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

All the new books that I have signed at the same time and are still persisting to this day have been signed, and most of them are on the shelves. They have subscriptions and rewards. I am a poor person who has never had anything. If you recommend it to them, one vote is only worth one fan, and one subscription is worth at least ten fans. Giving them a recommendation that costs nothing at all is not even the icing on the cake, but here it is a timely help.
