Chapter 1532 Fighting for Prince Snow White(2/2)
"Do I have a choice?
You hurry up and train our crew well, then bring all our cannons and muskets to save your Snow White Prince.
I will be here waiting for you to come back and cheer for your victory!
Fuck the Liberian rules, screw it for Christina’s Snow Prince!”
———
Kitaomi, Nagahama Castle.
After the Oda family's large force entered Kitaomi, this new castle built by Hashiba Hideyoshi after demolishing Otani Castle has become Oda Nobunaga's residence and military station in this battle.
In the meeting hall at this time, Oda Nobunaga was pacing back and forth with a dark face.
All the concubines below are sitting attentively, waiting with bated breath, fearing that if they are not careful, the angry palace will vent its temper on themselves.
Oda Nobunaga cursed loudly as he walked.
"Gonroku this idiot! What the hell is she doing in Echizen Country!
They actually allowed the Kwantung Allied Forces to occupy Sankoku Minato, and even gave up the north bank of the Kuzuryu River, allowing the enemy to easily reach the upstream Kuzuryu Lake and open up the Mino Pass!
While the Kwantung Allied Forces gathered shipping forces from the Three Kingdoms to enter Tsuruga Port and head south to Omi Country, they also sent people to attack Mino Country from Minoguchi. Her Shibata defense line is full of loopholes and is a joke!"
After venting his emotions, Oda Nobunaga pointed at the warrior Hime sitting down and ordered.
"Yoshichi Inaba!"
"Hi!"
"You immediately take your troops back to the North City and arrange defenses. You must block the Kwantung Allied Forces north of Wen Jian Pass and do not allow an enemy to appear on the plains of West Meinong!"
"Hi!"
"Sakuma Nobumori!"
"Hi!"
"Take your troops and go south immediately, and secure the Suzuka Pass for me! Minamiomi and Kitaiise must ensure that nothing goes wrong. If any problems arise, please come and see them!"
"Hi!"
Sending out the two generals once again diluted the troops in his hands, and Oda Nobunaga became increasingly unhappy.
Of course she knew that Shibata Katsuie had tried his best. With more than 10,000 men to block the 50,000 to 60,000 elite troops of the Kwantung Allied Forces, Shibata Katsuie could not possibly cover everything.
Oda Nobunaga had read the detailed report of Shibata's three lines of defense and was full of praise at the time. Only then did he fully support the supplies and complete the establishment of the defense line.
Shibata Katsuie dared to give up half of the Fukui Plain and relied on the mountains of Echizen Province to build three lines of defense in only one winter. He had already tried his best.
Oda Nobunaga, who was quite proud at first, did not expect that those legendary Kanto warriors who were reckless and rude could be so cunning.
They did not choose to attack by force, but divided their troops into three groups. They rushed to support the nearby coalition forces by water transport, and crossed the mountains to threaten Simino. The remaining troops spread out and pulled out the nails of Shibata's defense line one by one.
The detours and encroachments of the Kwantung Allied Forces were completely unexpected by Shibata Katsuie, and also caused a chill in Oda Nobunaga's back.
On the other side, Shiba Yiyin led several coalition forces and began to advance tentatively from Takashima County.
Yoshitsugi Otani, who stayed behind in Iga country, was also restless and frequently harassed Suzuka Pass, causing panic among the people of Minamiomi and Kitaiise.
Coupled with the raging Maeda Toshiie and Baba Nobbo in the Higashi Mino Mountains, the Noo Plains have never been peaceful.
Oda Nobunaga had to put out the fire on all sides, and the troops gathered in his hands were dispersed bit by bit.
She knew in her heart that the commotion everywhere was just scabies, but in order to maintain the morale of the army, she had to take action.
This situation of being passive and being beaten everywhere made Oda Nobunaga very unhappy. She had never experienced such idleness before.
Because of her fear of Shiba Yiyin, she couldn't let go and took a chance, but instead fell into a more troublesome situation.
We must act immediately, no more hesitation!
Oda Nobunaga stood up suddenly, scanned the whole place, and said.
"You all go back and prepare. The army enters Yixiang County and assembles towards Yu Wu!"
Most of the plains of Kita Omi are in the southern part of the east, which is the prosperous area where the Rokkaku family and the Asai family were founded.
Ika County, located in the northern part of Omi Province, is mostly mountainous, and the Yuwu area is the only way from the mountains to the plains.
The area is mountainous, has Yuwu Lake, and a small plain that is conducive to fighting. The terrain is complex and can be defended or fought.
As long as the Oda family can keep an eye on Yuwu, they can protect the plain area behind them. With the continuous support from the Omi Basin and the Noo Plain behind them, they will be in an invincible position.
Oda Nobunaga understood that the other forces of Shiba were harassed by partial divisions, and the real trump card of the Shiba family was Yoshigan Shiba of Takashima County.
Oda Nobunaga, who had already deployed a large number of troops, was determined to confront Yoshigan Shiba in the Yugo Lake area, looking for a fighter opportunity.
