Akechi Mitsuhide listened and read the letter sent by the envoy. The Asai family sent some information and free money today.
Although he was dismissed as a problem, there was no problem with etiquette and he was still respectful.
There was a lot of information to be shared, and it was all done as a friendly force. After all, Spoelstra's borrowing of troops was politically correct this time, and no one could find fault.
"My lord, the identity of the enemy on the opposite side has been confirmed. What a fate."
"Oh? How to say it?"
"It's the military force led by Mekarada Tsunayoshi."
Yoshigan raised his head and looked into the distance, which was the direction of the enemy. Maeda Yoshitsugi and Ohtani Yoshitsugi's eyes flickered upon hearing this.
"This is really... it's not like enemies never get together."
Yiyin clenched his fists and looked at the eager eyes of his subordinates.
"Has the time for the battle been determined?"
"Lord Asai Nagamasa has decided to send troops to Noraota early the day after tomorrow to start a battle with Rokkaku Yoshihide."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded and Yoshiyin waved his hand and said.
"Master Todo, the military must be in place tonight and be repaired for the whole day. We will hold a pre-battle review tomorrow and see how we can defeat Katada Tsunayoshi!"
Mekada Tsunayoshi sneezed twice, she was feeling depressed these days.
After the ambush failed, life became difficult. The main family had no time to take care of itself, so she naturally encountered difficulties from the important officials in the family.
But I can't explain it. Should I put the responsibility on the owner's family? Is there any way to survive? I can only pretend to be deaf and dumb and cope with it reluctantly.
Later, as the information gradually became more abundant, I realized that I had done something stupid.
At that time, there were no reinforcements from the shogunate in the valley, and the shogunate didn't know about the ambush. It was Shiba Yigen and a few Ji warriors who wiped out the evil party behind him.
If we reinforce the troops quickly, we might not have so much trouble.
Rokkaku Yoshiken also blamed her for being timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and escaping to evacuate at the critical moment. This battle did not look good on her, so she was sent to the back of this barren mountain.
The Rokkaku family's military strength against the Asai family is two to one, and the Rokkaku family has a great chance of winning.
Kicking him away means not giving him a chance to serve his country, and clearly telling everyone that the Mekada family has fallen out of favor.
Mekada Tsunayoshi has no way to do this. Her family is dependent on the Rokkaku family. Like rattan and trees, without the trees to climb, the rattan cannot move upward.
These days, besides cursing Shiba, I just face reality. I am bored waiting for the war to end, thinking about how to please Rokkaku Yoshiken after the war and save the family property.
In the early morning of the next day, as soon as Yoshigan had breakfast, Todo Toradaka came with his daughter to report.
After reporting the current military situation, Yiyin gasped in shock.
"There are one hundred and thirteen Hime warriors and two hundred and eleven Ashigaru warriors. Todo-sama, you are really willing to do this."
The number of Ashigaru members of the Todo clan was still within the mobilization range of the Manshi territory, but the number of the Hime warriors really scared Yoshigan.
Didn't they pull out all the Ji warriors from Yuanfu to Baitou in the twelve villages? If they lose this battle, the Tengdang people will not be in decline, but they will be exterminated.
"I am willing to work hard for the general, even if I die, I will have no regrets!"
Tora Tora is loyal to the general at all times. There is no way around it. The royal flag represents the general's conquests, and only then can he have the right to ennoble the imperial family. Tora Tora is working so hard for this ladder to climb up.
Yoshihiro didn't understand, but Akechi Mitsuhide understood very well and spoke up.
"May I ask Lord Todo, how many horses, iron cannons, and bows and arrows are there in the army?"
"Replying to Akechi-sama, we have seven war horses, twenty-three rhinoceros horses, and six iron cannons. We are not good at bows and arrows, and we have no Yukihime samurai. Ashigaru has thirty bamboo bows."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded, but Yoshiyin shook his head.
This group of people are very capable of saving their fortunes. The reason for the large number of Ji warriors is because they have low status and have no place to serve as officials.
Even the lowest-ranking warrior Ji needs thirty years of salary to serve as an official. The martial arts family cannot arrange it with their own people, so how can it be the turn of the Chinese to serve as servants.
On a normal day, Chinese people still have to consider the continuity of their families, and would never pull out all the women in the family for the sake of war.
But this time, Toudo Toraka really made a desperate move, and the Hime Samurai came with more than half of the Ashigaru reserve team.
In addition, war horses, iron cannons, bows and arrows are all precious armaments. I don’t know how long I have been saving them on weekdays, but this time I pulled them all out.
Maybe those Chinese people outside are still wiping away their tears, but aren't the leaders prepared to get through the days to come?
No matter what, the momentum of all this wealth shocked Yiyin. Isn't it just a false name? I can't give it to you.
"Master Todo, well done, this battle will be your first achievement."
Yoshigami nodded solemnly towards Todo Tougao. If others take you seriously, you should not let others down. This is how you can go a long way by comparing your feelings with your own.
"Now that we have all the people and horses, let's talk about what the next regulations will be."
Yiyin is self-aware, and besides using plug-ins to kill everyone on the battlefield, at other times, he should listen to more advice than these Ji warriors who have been fighting for dozens of generations.
Maeda Yoshitake was the first to speak.
"Since we have strong soldiers and horses, it's better to invite Katada Tsunayoshi, the commander of the battle, to kill her.
Since she was sent to guard a side road, her army will not be large, and she doesn’t know that our soldiers and horses are so strong that they can defeat us in a single battle."
Otani Yoshitsugi nodded in agreement, Todo Toraoka and his daughter only wanted to make contributions, so they naturally agreed with both hands on the matter of war.
Akechi Mitsuhide glanced at the girls who were in high spirits and said.
"Is this the only ambition everyone has? Is it enough to kill the lost dog Tsunayoshi Mekada?"
"There is no need to provoke the general if you have something to say."
Yiyin interrupted her deception.
You scheming woman, this place is full of firecrackers, it will spontaneously ignite if you don’t light it up. You still want to add fuel to the fire, I despise you.
"Your Majesty is right, we naturally want to make great achievements and do great things. I know that you are so bad that you are bleeding, so if you have a way, just say it and we will listen to you."
Benefit said carelessly, and asked Akechi Mitsuhide to grin at her. Yoshigan's heart suddenly thought, this Benefit was really looking for death, how could he live a good life after being offended by such a shady guy.
Thinking about it, these brainless ones need to be dealt with. Let them play by themselves after the war.
At this time, he remained silent and continued to watch.
"Lord Asai Nagamasa has decided to join forces with the Rokkaku family to fight in Noarada tomorrow morning.
Neither side can afford to lose this battle. The battle will be tense and there will be no victory or defeat in a short while.
If at that time, a team of people came out from behind the Liujiao family, what kind of credit would this be?"
The girls' eyes lit up after hearing this. But they were all people killed in the battle formation, so they were not so easy to fool. Otani Yoshitsugi asked.
"This is difficult. After all, Mekada Tsunayoshi has a complete army, and it will take a lot of time to defeat her.
We are far away from the battlefield behind the mountains, so how can we quickly reach the rear of the Hexagonal Army after the war?
The most important thing is, why did Mekada Tsunayoshi go to war? There is no need for her to go to war, her task is only to guard the Yamago Valley Road."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded and said.
"No matter what, the first thing we have to do is to defeat Mokada, otherwise everything else is just a delusion.
It's very simple to ask Mekada Tsunayoshi to go into battle, but it would be a hassle for the Lord."
"I?"
Yiyin blinked, not understanding.
"I would like to ask the Lord to write a letter and be bold enough to borrow something."
"You can write a letter. What do you want to borrow?"
"The Lord's loincloth."
Yoshigan was suffocated and looked at Akechi Mitsuhide with a guilty conscience.
Loincloth is the exclusive underwear for men in this world, but he feels uncomfortable and never wears it. Like the warrior girls in this world, he likes a vacuum.
