At the 4th hour of Youshi's tent on August 18, 2018, the Asai family had not attacked for three consecutive days, and all the important officials gathered in the tent, waiting for news from behind.
Finally, after seeing a messenger who didn't understand the inside story, sweating profusely and quickly walked into the tent in panic, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, as soon as the messenger entered the tent, he immediately fell to the ground and said to Yoshiken Rikao in the main position: "Your Highness! Takanose Hidetaka from Hitan Castle has rebelled! Now he has sent troops to attack our food route! The troops behind him are insufficient and it is difficult to resist!"
"Oh? So, you go down first." Hexao Yoshi-hyun's unsavory attitude made the messenger very puzzled, but he still respected the order and retreated honestly. As soon as the messenger left, the big tent immediately became boiling.
"The plan was successful! Your Highness!" the generals of the Hexagonal yelled excitedly.
"It's really the legacy of the former lord." The old minister of the three dynasties, Pu Sheng Dingxiu, burst into tears in an instant. Since the death of Hekao Dinglai, the power of the Hekao family in Kinki has faded. But today, Hekao Yoshi-hyun let him see hope of revitalizing the Hekao family's reputation. "A good trick is used."
"The Asai family's country bumpkins must not know that our ninjas will be so powerful." Miyun Cheng snorted disdainfully, "Their every move against the details is in our hands. We know exactly which teams they have and which numbers are there! If the lord hadn't deliberately asked the tricks in the city of Futian, we would even know the things in Futian!"
"That's right, this is the end of them looking down on our ninjas." Ishikawa Goemon smiled, "I don't know how he died!"
"Okay, okay, let me leave it to Xiaogu City for compliments!" The bold words of Heika Yoshi-hyun caused a new round of cheers from everyone. After everyone calmed down, Heika Yoshi-hyun looked at Yamaoka Jinglong and asked, "Are the ropes ready? Are the personnel screening?"
"Don't worry, your highness, I have done all these tasks in the past two days." Yamaoka Keito replied with his hands.
"So good, our fishing line is about to start tightening!"
On the evening of August 18, at 7:00 a.m., the camp of the Sukai family.
"The news confirmed that Lord Takase has already raised his troops!" A messenger ran into the account excitedly and knelt down to report: "The Hexake family on the other side seems to have begun to stir up."
"Everything is within the calculation of Lord Panasonic." Asai Nagamasa smiled, "Send the order and rest early tonight. Tomorrow morning, cross Yakurakawa and start chasing!"
At the beginning of the night of August 18, the important officials in the Hejiao Family Camp were fully focused and waiting for Hejiao Yixian's orders.
"The Asai family must have thought we could retreat until dawn tomorrow. After all, there was no moon in the first half of the night, and the army could not walk at night in a hurry. If we wanted to walk at night, we would have to set up a torch, and the Asai family would definitely be seen." Heika Yoshi-hyun smiled proudly, "But they were going to miscalculate again! We have already prepared a large number of ropes, and all the people who could see the road clearly at night lead the way in front, and the people behind were leading the ropes with the ropes and followed the people in front."
"If such a thing is done on the battlefield, once the troops are attacked, the institutions are disrupted and lined up in a long line will collapse instantly, but we are walking in a safe territory. The preparations in advance have also begun early. Not only have we selected some footsteps that can be seen at night, but we have also arranged personnel guidance at various forks on the road, so that they are foolproof. From Hikone to Norada, the official road from northeast to southwest, there are ninjas from the Hekao family to respond everywhere!" Yoshikino smiled and said to Yamaoka Keito and others: "Yamaoka Pre, Nagahara Pre, Nagata Pre, and Nagata Pre 45oo people went to the Waste God Mountain north of Hitan Castle and Norada Pre sanctuary!"
"Yes!" After receiving the order, the three of them immediately left the tent and took the troops to evacuate.
"Kondo Pre, Qingdi Pre, Ikeda Pre, and 4ooo people went to Fengxiang, east of the city of Futa City to ambush!"
"Yes!" Kenmoto and the other three received the order and left.
"Yiji!" Heikao Yoshi-hyun pointed out his son's name again, "Take 2ooo people and rush to Yeliangtian to arrange the battlefield in advance! Investigate the terrain and occupy a favorable position! And build siege equipment!"
"Yes! Father!" Heikaku Yoshiji was still a 16-year-old boy. At this moment, he took over the task excitedly and immediately led his troops out.
"The rest of the army, together with me, slowly evacuate tomorrow and lead the Asai army to Norada!"
"Yes!" After everyone received the order, they dispersed and prepared for tomorrow's battle.
At this time, in the Asai family territory.
"There is constant turmoil in the Hexao family camp! It's very disturbing." Yu Qiuhei and Asai Nagamasa were standing by the Yakura River. This group of people was guided by Yu Qiuhei and Asai Nagamasa who had no night blindness.
"But without a torch, I can't see anything." Yu Qiuping sighed at the dark night in ancient times. In the city, all kinds of neon lights and street lights made him almost never feel such a complete darkness. Everything a few meters away was hidden in the shadows.
"Go back, nothing is good." Maeda Takiya yelled and urged everyone to go back.
On the morning of August 19th, at 3 o'clock, the city tower of Zuohe Mountain City.
"The Hexao Army has retreated! The Hexao Army has retreated!" A lookout soldier on the city tower shouted excitedly to the city, "Go and notify the Lord! The Hexao Family has retreated!"
"No need, I'll wait here all night." A majestic male voice suddenly came from the city tower, and the lookout soldiers on the city tower were shocked. Isono Yukimao stood up from behind a pillar, moved his body a few times, and walked towards the city wall with big strides.
"Rich the wolf smoke and notify the main army." Isono Shinzo picked up the samurai sword leaning against the wall and left his waist, "Open the city gate and attack the enemy!"
At four o'clock, Sakawa Yama Castle ignited wolf smoke. After receiving the news, Asai army immediately advanced towards Yakurakawa. The position where the Hexake family defended Yakurakawa had been abandoned, and the Asai family pioneers climbed to the south bank without any obstacles. At six o'clock, Asai family pioneers Aimori Kitasato and Isono Tomokazumaki began to pursue the Hexake family's rear-limited rear.
Pu Sheng Dingxiu did not choose to stick to the fundamental formation, but burned the formation with fire, signaling the evacuated team: the Asai army began to pursue. Then he fought and retreated, retreating to the southwest.
At the sixth hour of Tatsuo, the entire Asai army crossed the Yakura River. The vanguard of the pursuit had reached the border of Nose River. The first team was Isono Toshimasaki and Urimori Kiyosaki. The second team was Onoki Shigetsu, Asashisaki, and Endo Nagamasaki. The third team was Asai Nagamasaki's Masaki, direct samurai, and Yuqiuhei, and the fourth team was Asai Ryogen, and the Mitamura family. At this time, the team of the Hexaki family had retreated to Emeni River two miles south of Nose River.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Nose Riverside.
"Hurry up! Cross the bridge!" Pu Sheng Dingxiu's son, Pu Sheng Kenshe, was directing his home to pass through the wooden bridge on the Nose River. The four hundred hind feet and the samurai in the north were desperately blocking the offensives of Kiyosaki Yumori and Isono Toshima, which was very difficult. The narrow wooden bridge was not enough for everyone to pass through, so he had to queue up in sequence, which caused extremely crowded on both sides of the bridge.
"Okay, it's finally done!" Pu Shengxianxiu saw that all the auxiliary soldiers in the family had finally retreated and breathed a sigh of relief. "How come the two crazy men from the Asai family chased them so tightly!"
"The person who broke the bridge! Are you ready?" Pu Shengxianxiu shouted loudly, and more than a dozen people holding hoes, big stone bricks, torches and oil barrels immediately leaned over. "After the battle soldiers cross the bridge, you will immediately demolish the bridge!"
The soldiers of Pu Sheng's family were among the elite soldiers in the Hexao family. They were still not panic under the siege of Isono and Kiyoshi Yumori and retreated. The team formed a circular defense circle on the south bank of the wooden bridge. The people in the inner circle retreated to the bridge, while the people in the outer circle continued to resist, waiting for their turn to retreat. When the last few warriors were left standing on the bridge to resist, Pu Sheng Hyun-soo decisively ordered the bridge to be demolished. The slightest players immediately smashed the bridge, smashing more than a dozen wooden boards off the bridge deck, and the bridge body collapsed seriously.
The fire ignited the bridge deck. The flames swallowed the wooden bridge and soon burned a small piece. Several samurai who broke the rear waved a few slashes, and the archers in the south of Nose River also shot arrows to cover them. Then the samurai helped the bridge a few steps and jumped to the place near the south bank of the river. The river water disappeared from its waist. They ran towards the shore with their hands and feet. Except for a archer who was shot to death in the water, the others successfully escaped to the south bank. The wooden bridge also collapsed into the water in the flames.
"Damn!" Yu Sen Qingzhen cursed, "I can only cross the river by rushing! Everyone hurry up!"
After Yumori Kiyosaki and Isono Takashi left some auxiliary soldiers to try to build a temporary floating bridge for the army behind to pass, they continued to chase with the remaining foot. The bridges of Inuguchi River and Emen River were also demolished, and the river was not deep and did not take too long. However, they also lost the opportunity to bite Pu Sheng's family. They were too far away from the team and did not dare to advance further. They stopped in Halai Village, not far from the northeast of Huangshen Mountain, waiting for reinforcements.
At the fifth hour, the second and third formations of the Asai family arrived in Karai Village. Asai Nagamasa commanded the 11ooo people to pursue, and the remaining 2ooo people were asked to follow as soon as possible. The Asai army quickly bypassed southeast of the Huangshen Mountain, walked south along Uzechuan for a while, and found a bridge that the Hexao family had not had time to destroy and continued to pursue.
At this time, the foot of the Huangshen Mountain. Jinglong, the mountain gorge, looked coldly at the Asai Jun who was gradually walking into the ambush circle but was unaware of it. He sneered, and did not attack, but waited for the order of Hexao Yoshi-hyun.
At 7 o'clock in the lunar month, the Hexao Army who rushed back to Hitan Castle immediately received the siege equipment made by Hexao Yoshiji who rushed back yesterday and began to attack Hitan Castle. Takase Hidetaka, who was originally attacking the transportation team, hurriedly led his subordinates back to Hitan Castle to defend.
Hitoshi Castle is surrounded by water on three sides, Uso River is the northeast, and Edo River is surrounded by Edo River in the northwest and southwest. The foot of the Hexaga family came to Hitoshi Castle after crossing Uso River and following the corridor between Uso River and Edo River.
"The Hexao family attacked Hirota Castle so quickly and so fiercely! The plan would fail! You must defend Hirota Castle!" Takase Hidetaka secretly cried in his heart. When he rushed back to Hirota Castle, seven ladders had been put on the tower of the Nishicheng City, and two watchtowers were shooting at the archers at the top of the city. The Hexao Army's offensive was rapid and clever, and many of them had already climbed to the top of the city. Takase Hidetaka hurriedly led reinforcements to kill the city wall. The reinforcements of the new force helped the defenders stabilize the situation and drove the Hexao family. The furious Hexao family began to indulge their subordinates to plunder the city Shimocho. The residents of the town originally closed their doors and windows and wanted to escape the military disaster, but now they had to flee in a hurry.
