A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Hunting geese all year round, the geese pecked my eyes!

The Furukawa Imperial Palace was in crisis. There was a huge difference between the Furukawa Crown Prince supported by the Hojo clan and the Furukawa Crown Prince supported by the Uesugi clan. Kenshin Uesugi already had every advantage in succeeding to the position of Kanto Governor. The Hojo family was already one step behind in terms of their right to justice. It was not easy for them to have Koga Furukawa to fight against them, so they could not lose it.

"Exactly how many Yamauchi troops and Shimono people are surrounding Furukawa!" Although Oishi Shiteru was upset in his heart, his face remained calm, and he would not let his panic show on his face.

"About fifteen thousand people!" The envoy of Ashikaga Yoshiji could only give an approximate number.

"Fifteen thousand people... Given the strength of the Furukawa Imperial Fortress, with only two or three thousand soldiers, it would be difficult to capture it easily."

"What does uncle mean?" Hojo knew that his uncle was a safe man.

"The day before yesterday, Yamakaku Shirozaemon (Hojo Clan's Royal Horse Guards) went back to Matsuyama to escort the army supplies. There were about a thousand people. He sent an order to him not to return to the camp, but to drive directly to the lower headquarters and summon the subordinates' servants to the warehouse. Gather two or three thousand people and enter Guhe, so there is no need to worry!”

Seeing that Hirai was about to have a breakthrough, it was impossible for Oishi Teru to just turn around and retreat to save Furukawa. Or they could divide 15,000 people to fight against Hosokawa Harime.

If the soldiers in the camp heard that the back road was being attacked, the Yamauchi Army would only have to penetrate the Hokoshita headquarters and let them invade Minamimusashi. Given the quality of the peasant soldiers, serious chaos would occur after hearing the news.

If someone raids your hometown, you will definitely panic!

Oishi Shiteru was prepared to take a gamble. As long as Hirai's side broke through, the Ueno people would be destroyed. Hosokawa Zaimei, who had not captured Furukawa Castle, would have her retreat route cut off and lose her footing. At that time, it was the Yamauchi family who came to beg the Hojo family for a way out.

But the premise is that Furukawa City is not lost. Once it is lost, everything will stop!

Therefore, we must hide the news from the soldiers for the time being, and take advantage of the current victory to continue attacking the Ueno people. Secretly dispatch a certain number of reinforcements into Furukawa City to ensure that Furukawa City will not be captured within a short period of time.

Don't panic, don't be hasty! The situation has not been reversed yet!

I can!

That night, there was nothing different in the Hojo Army Camp except for an extra cavalry officer. The soldiers were all beaming with joy. The soldiers who were used to fighting against the wind were also discerning and could tell that the Ueno people on the opposite side might not be able to hold it anymore. Then they can go into the field for a while and be happy.

As for the generals of the Hojo Army, although what Oishi said was very reasonable and convincing, they could not help but feel worried.

Hosokawa Harugong is an old yinbi, so why did she give birth to a son who is just as bad as him? Leap forward to the main country, attack Koga Koga, and hit Hojo's seven inches.

Early the next morning, Oishi, who looked very calm on his face, had dark circles under his boss's eyes, but he was still worried after all.

We made up our minds to quickly defeat the Ueno coalition forces today, neutralize the offensive of the Yamauchi Army Rangers, and regain the initiative and advantage in the entire battle.

But before he could give the order, Ashikaga Yoshiji and his entourage ran for a day and a night, and entered the Hojo Army camp in despair.

Furukawa Imperial Palace is lost!

Hosokawa Saime arrived before noon, and Ashikaga Yoshiji began to defend the city. At noon, Hosokawa Saime ordered water to be released to fill the mud. I thought I was going to attack from all sides, but Sanada Masayuki defeated the city early the next morning with an attack on the heart.

The majestic Kantō Shogun’s Furukawa Imperial Palace really only lasted one day and night!

"Furuhe Castle is lost!" Even Oishi Teru couldn't control his emotions at this time and roared loudly.

Ashikaga Yoshiji was originally a puppet supported by the Hojo clan. He didn't even dare to reply. He just sat there with his head lowered and accepted the roar of the Oishi clan expressionlessly.

"The situation is not good now!" Masashige Daidoji frowned and looked solemn.

The young Hojo Uji Naoya realized that the situation had reversed, and it was beginning to go against Hojo Fang. He was far inferior to his grandfather Ujiyasu Hojo, and he had a worried look on his face.

"For today's plan, how to advance or retreat? Uncle, there is a sure way."

Oishi Shiteru did not respond to him, but paced back and forth in the shogunate. Sometimes he raises his head, sometimes he lowers his head, sometimes his brows spread a little, sometimes they frown a little tighter.

"How about temporarily negotiating peace with Ueno, heading to Shimozong, and defeating the Yamauchi forces?" Matsuda Kenhide said a solution that was not a solution.

"No!" Oshishi stopped after hearing this!

"Bang the taiko drum! Launch an attack on the upper wild people in the predetermined order. Don't be stingy with ammunition, Nanman Datong!"

"Then Koga..." Ashikaga Yoshiji became a little anxious upon hearing this.

"Furuga Castle has been defeated. With Hosokawa Minae's military strength, we simply cannot defeat the enemy and seize the city in a short time. At this time, Kaichi has also determined that apart from the remaining troops, the Yamauchi clan can still send tens of thousands of troops to attack. At that time, our army was surrounded by enemies on three sides and was unable to resist!

It is better to take advantage of the advantage of the upper field and defeat the enemy quickly, defeat Hirai first, and then seize the stable bridge. In this way, there will be no worries on the northern front.

After that, the troops were divided into two groups, one going to Xiazong and the other to Jiazhoukou. The strength of both groups was strengthened to more than 20,000, giving them the advantage.

In this way, although this battle will not be completely won, it can still be a great victory! "

All the generals in the tent understood what Oishi Shiteru meant. The central idea remained unchanged and they bet on a time difference.

In the end, it was the Hojo Army that defeated the Ueno people first, or the Hosokawa Rangers of the Yamauchi Army that turned Kitakashi into a mess first.

This is a strategy to survive in death!

As long as we can defeat the Ueno people in front of us, nothing is a problem and everything can be saved. Retreating now will not only result in a futile return, but will also complete the order of the Ueno people. Whether it is a follow-up pursuit or a move of troops to the headquarters, it will cause an immeasurable blow to the Hojo family.

"What Mutsu Mamoru (Oishi Teru) said makes sense! I think it's feasible!" Daidoji Masashige was the first to stand up and agree.

Soon the two generals Itabe Okaemon and Toyama Zaemon of the Odawara clan also agreed, but the generals such as the Edo clan and the Matsuyama clan of the Minami Musashi were in the territory of the Minami Musashi (by destroying the Kitakashi clan, you can enter the Minami Musashi territory). reasons and expressed concern.

Katsu Kaga Mamoru, Aida Nakamushi, Ohta Shirohei, Ohta Bungo Mamoru, Itakura Xiu Ryo and others were always extremely resistant to not saving Kitakishita at all, and kept making statements.

How could Oishi Teru not understand people's hearts? Today, Hirai's advantage on the battlefield is built with twice the number of troops and cannons. If you want to win quickly, you must not divide your troops.

Although Hojo is big, it cannot be created out of nothing. Today, the largest regiment in Minamimusashi is the Ten Thousand Soldiers of the Fujita Clan, and the Yamauchi Clan is pacifying the territory after suppressing Kai Ichiku, and the two sides are not fighting.

It only takes three to five days of fighting!

The Oishi family was certain that the Yamauchi family would hesitate for a few days and would not immediately send troops to Koshukou.

If ten thousand members of the Fujita clan go to save the president, they can stop the whole crowd. His younger brother fought bravely, and even if he couldn't defeat Hosokawa Harime, he could still hold him back.

The winner must be Hojo!
