Nobunaga's Bastard

Episode 92: Engagement and Continuing Reports and (Map Available)

Iga Muraiya, soldier 2,000. Though I thought I could collect another thousand, the southern Iga crowd led by Baidi Tambo caged in Kashiwara Castle, and the early departure of Koga County reduced it by a thousand. However, it is in the sphere of expectations.

He led almost all the army south with all the executives except Jia Wei. The direction of the destination is southwest, but it was to the east that we left the castle and headed first. Follow Iga Shinobu's lead on the mountain path where the sun has fallen and nothing is visible. Every minute I let him take a small pause and let everyone eat simple food. I plan to go to battle without sleeping like this. I want to get as little fatigue as possible.

Everyone was silent during the march. Everyone, including me, is on foot because it's too late for horses to travel in the deep mountains. It's all about winning that the enemy doesn't find us. Therefore, there is no rush. Nothing in the Oda family has gained more experience than us if it's fighting in the mountains or in weak scaffolding. If it's a dawn ambush, you can win even if it's a double or triple enemy.

Almost all the soldiers I could get out brought in. With the exception of Koga County, I don't see the Igas flirting anti-flags against the Oda family. If we hold down the south, it can't be that the big army suddenly drops Maruyama Castle or something. Even though I knew that, I was concerned about Maruyama Castle, which I had been away from.

"My lord, do you have any thoughts?

Asked by the ancient left marching side by side. Dark March Dead, I'm not supposed to see anything, but is it because of breath, or did you see my expression slightly in the light of the stars?

"It doesn't matter."

I answered briefly and proceeded with my steps. I was cautioned by the Goemon over and over again on the way. Going fast doesn't mean you can defeat your enemies fast. On the contrary, if you force them to march, they weaken your allies. I know, but I'm really in a hurry.

"The east sky is turning white."

"We will be arriving shortly"

Only a few moments after Goemon said so, the moment he found Kashihara Castle in the front towards him, it was as if he was being shown a trick. I never knew where I was walking, etc. Like I weighed, no, of course I weighed it, but it's Kashiwara Castle right in front of me, nevertheless.

"Looks like they've arrived."

says Goemon, who looks unusual and slightly excited. Around Kashiwara Castle there were about five thousand enemy soldiers.

From the south of Yamato to the south of Iga, the path from the area called Sakurai in the south of Yamato to the northeast is the most suitable for the march. In the mountains there is ample scope for what is, and it is possible for thousands of armies to pass. It's not even a path with ups and downs that the horse can't go on again. Continue further northeast along the Utah River and you will eventually reach the southernmost tip of Iga. And less than half a mile from there is Kashihara Castle, a residence of Baidi Tampa.

Just as Lord Bullet said that the local interest of Yamato was to use ancient graves, the residence castle built using the ancient tombs of Qinping Mountain is so unnatural that it seems unnatural for those who were the third-largest strength in the Iga kingdom to have it. But the castle of Shinigami is also imperative if it is attacked by more than five thousand or six times more soldiers by the forerunners alone.

I saw the enemy. I don't see how you noticed this one. As we hid ourselves in the mountains east to south of Kashiwara Castle, we set our sights on the family crest of Sakuragi (Sasa Rindo) surrounding the castle in a faraway winding. The family crest of Sakuragi is the Hokkaido family. Earlier, I killed Kitakuchi, the son of Kitakuchi. You would think of it as a sarcastic grudge. There can be no true stability for Ise as long as this man is alive. He's the one who wants to keep his neck off this one or the other.

"Separate soldiers. After that, we'll do as we're told."

The ambush will take control of the lead, and we will withdraw immediately. Don't let them take you personally for it. I told the whole army to move exactly as I had decided, and proceeded with the troop placement with minimal movement.

Are you sure they haven't noticed?

When we moved the army and finally fought, intense anxiety engulfed us.

“Is there any chance that Iga Shinobu has already betrayed him and was successfully fished out?"

To my thoughts, I spit frightened myself. Previously, he was seated as a nominal general. I've actually fought as a commander. But this is the first time I've commanded as a battlefield general in both honor and fame.

“Interceptions to control the advance of the army have already been made in Mount Usa. You don't think they're reading it?"

The seeds of anxiety did not run out, and they sprung up one after the other trying to stop thinking.

“Didn't your father do it long ago, such as the ambush of an army opponent? You don't think those who lost to their father were wary of it?"

There's no sound, the soldiers are moving. Maeda Sze, led by the Zao Man, has already completed the placement. Yasuke's troops will soon be in the furthest reaches.

“Take a look at the sky, heaven took sides in the barrel narrow, hailing rain. It's sunny today."

"Annoying!"

I lost my anxiety and accidentally spoke up. Goemon, who was holding back beside me, stares at me with a surprised gaze. The formation asked if it was still over, as if nothing had happened.

"I just received a report that Mr. Oki is better prepared."

I was told, and I said I understood. Do it. Give me a word of instruction. Goemon nodded, putting his hand on his mouth and sounding like a bird's chirping. Its voice echoed in the mountains, and eventually it was heard even in the distance, and

"Has it started?"

I heard cheers. The morning sun hasn't completely come out of the mountain yet, with a slightly quicker carving limit than the early dawn. On the north side of Kashihara Castle, nine hundred soldiers under the command of Zao, Keijiro and Suke-right Gate launched an attack. swinging enemy formation. I saw the flag of Sadragon gallbladder move and several of them fall. There has been no counter-attack. Looks like it's pushing in unilaterally. I'm winning.

Eventually, Maeda Sze, who was attacking from the north side, reached the west side of the castle, and the Igas also struck out from within the castle. Enemy formations that were trying to show a slight attitude of resistance collapsed and collapsed. I tried to escape to the woods south of Kashiwara Castle. Just then, the Hokkaido army fled into the forest. Three hundred, led by Jinglian, raised Murai's flag and intercepted an enemy fleeing in a mood.

The three forces, including the castle side, mount an attack from each direction, pushing it from the northeast to the southwest in the direction of the flow of the Utah River. Don't give me time to rebuild my posture, and the 700 I lead will attack.

"Don't push wrap it from the front. You just have to chase enemies who run away from you and attack you from the side."

Tell your side, rather than telling yourself. It's a one-sided push now, but it doesn't change the fact that the enemy has twice as many allies. There is no other way to survive than to surround all directions and defeat the earliest enemy. Don't make me think so.

The enemy flag is approaching. Lead by finding a warlord riding a stunning reed horse. Probably Hokkaido. The expression appeared to have a common color of fear, and at the same time there was humiliation and anger. At the same time that the Hokkaido passed through the front, he shouted at him and rushed out the best.

"My lord, do not do anything dangerous!

I was surrounded by Goemon and Iga Ninja who caught up with me. When I slow down, the soldiers chase me through one after the other. Don't put your back on Master Bandage! And the ancient left, screaming, passed beside me and bumped into the enemy.

Run. I could clearly see the face of the enemy soldier under flank attack. They all look like they're having nightmares at once. No one wants to fight back, but he wants to get away from the scene as soon as possible anyway. One soldier, supposedly younger than me, took Murai soldier's spear to his chest and fell. The moment I fell, I shrugged something. Seeing that mouth move, the movement stops between the bundles. I see you said 'Kaa-chan'.

"Slash it! Pick up more than one!

I roughed up my voice so I could shake it off. There are always more than one ally in front of me, and I never cut my enemies directly, but still, if I stretch my arms, my enemies will pass by such a distance that I can grasp them. The ex-military and the Chinese pass, and the few remaining rear armies are isolated and separated. Scattered in the direction of starvation is individually picked up. Your allies will pursue more enemies so that they cannot regain their stature. When he was taking the enemy's horse, Keijiro ran through the lead with a bright red spear, smashing the enemy into pieces and going.

"My lord!"

"Confirm the damage done by your allies. Anyone in need of treatment should immediately go to Kashihara Castle."

Instructions were given first to the collectors, who had approached the victory with joy. If the opponent's squad comes, it will be more than double. This one is inferior to the number. We have to take care of each and every one of our allies.

"That was a brilliant and sober extraction."

I was told by Jinglian, who has a richer expression than usual, whether he is exalted to victory. Really? Answer. I am not humble. He was going to be anxiously crushed all night. If I should have done this in advance, I could see it because I had decided to do everything. Maybe there was no disturbance, but I don't know if it was calm.

"Is the first battle a victory?"

"It's a vibrant grand victory with no more."

Nodded. Hard work is far greater than body fatigue, etc., but those hardships still seem to come to an end for the reason that they could have won.

"After that, Keijiro won't go too far, or Yasuke will do it well."

Tell him not to push it, but I don't think those two will come back asking about the enemy in a big way.

"My lord, Lord Baidi wants to wish you the way you see it. Once in Kashihara Castle"

A collector brought a horse. It must be a captured horse. Since there were about four others caught, I told them to ride to the Zao, Jinglian, Suke-right Gate, and Gu Left.

"War dead on your side, only seventeen. Take over 500 enemy soldiers."

Said the collector with satisfaction. Non is in a good mood to still be able to work on the battlefield. Because my brother happened to be one of the most extravagant of our time, he was taken away by the housekeeper for the reason that he was' born sick '. Since I was a minister, I have never been on the battlefield for the reason that few other people have ever had internal affairs skills. I guess I'm happy with martial arts on the battlefield because I'm such a collector.

"Of the seventeen, ten are Maeda Shigemi? You may have overplaced it in a dangerous place."

It was the first place I bumped into. It would have been here if someone had shown a slight temper of resistance.

"What can I tell you, you are in a great victory!

The collector laughed when he didn't want to, and the auxiliary right gate sitting beside him nodded. It's a great victory, and I'm glad to hear it.

"But Maeda will be joined by the dead for what Keijiro has gone after."

"For that matter, with the addition of martial arts,"

The collector told me, and I nodded. The faces of those who live side by side are always bright. Even Baidi Tampa loosens his expression.

"Welcome back, Keijiro Maeda and Yasuke Oki"

Just then I heard the voice of Goemon, and we all made a scene. The expectations of all gather as to how much martial arts the two have returned.

"I'm sorry, Father. You did a great job!

However, the first words unleashed by Keijiro, who did not wipe the blood back and all more red dyed Zhu's spear, were apologies to the collector.

"My neck was scratched by the Ogi Hall, hunting me down to the point where I could reach my handle neck!

About the same time that Keijiro said he bowed his head, Yasuke showed up. Unlike Keijiro, she is somewhat beautiful even if washed in water. And a white cloth bath like holding it by the side. The lower part is dyed red.

"The enemy general Nagano Fujito has taken his neck."

My allies were delighted. Nagano Fujito. He was the second son of Kitano Kudo, who was adopted by Mr. Nagano.

"All the necks mentioned by the awkward are in the dwarf. I never thought this Keijiro would miss the best martial arts."

"Lord Keijiro took his enemies to tear the waves apart, so he went after them, and took one of the most honorable. The only enemy Awkward defeated in this battle is Nagano Fujito."

I saw Yasuke laughing, and even though he did, the collector laughed, and Lord Yasuke is brilliant! and Auxiliary Right Gate praised. The work of Keijiro, which Yasuke expressed when he cleaved the waves, was not another lie, and later it can be seen that named warlords such as Okawachi, Fusei, Mitsuna Iwachi and Takeshi Sakanai had been taken over by Keijiro, and his neck had not been taken and he had been struck down.

"Everyone was a great fighter this time. Martial arts first is Yasuke. But Maeda's work is no less than that of leading the main force in defeating enemy troops and taking over many enemy generals. Furthermore, I am grateful for the work of Iga Ninja, who made a great contribution to intelligence and marching. Baidi Tampa is also a brilliant source of extraction from Kashihara Castle, combined with our attacks and breathing."

After praising the work and promising a post-war reward, it was discussed how it would move in the future. You will be able to delay the march of the enemy by a few days with this attack. But that's all. Soon the enemy will attack with more than 10,000 troops. Kashihara Castle is a good castle, but Maruyama Castle is more suitable for intercepting large armies. It is also advantageous to stretch the enemy supply line at all.

"In particular, some soldiers cannot refuse to abandon Kashihara Castle, and some cannot abandon their soldiers."

There was only one person in Baidi Tampa who disagreed with my suggestion not to withdraw to Maruyama Castle while the enemy was pulling back. But I couldn't ignore that opinion. Baidi Tampa has engaged the people of southern Iga, leading a total of eight hundred soldiers. The current situation alone is the largest force in the Murai family. We can't just ignore this opinion and say we're going home.

"On behalf of the Chinese people, I thank you for not abandoning the people of South Iga and for your help with 2,000 soldiers. We will fight on our own and join Maruyama in defeat, so please do not return."

I guess Baidi Tampa also understands that adhering to Kashihara Castle poses a strategic disadvantage. It was suggested that way, but I can't honestly snort either. When a caged army is defeated, that is, when it surrenders or is destroyed. Even if you abandoned eight hundred soldiers, it also involves the morale of Maruyama Castle.

"Bring those who can't retreat. I'll convince him."

That said, Baidi Tampa's gaze swam for a moment. I guess Baidi Tampa himself doesn't really want to move Kashihara Castle. Sneaking is often thought of as the most ruthless and unparalleled of all, especially Iga's sneaking emotions, but it also tries to protect a land called Iga. You feel like you love your hometown, but you can be ruthless to foreign enemies who don't want to take it away. That's why I can't follow orders to abandon my hometown. I understand the logic. I know how you feel. But in this situation, it's stupid. If you lose, you lose your precious home forever. Maruyama Castle is the most advantageous battlefield to defend your hometown.

"Two days, I'm persuaded. If they still don't seem to obey, the main unit will withdraw. Tampa, I will not allow you to go to Maruyama Castle. If you cannot pull to Maruyama Castle, descend to the enemy. So the people of southern Iga will be helped."

I didn't want to miss an ally who wouldn't listen halfway through. With all my thoughtful words, the look on Baidi Tampa's face sways. I didn't stare at each other. I'm Baidi Tampa's, Baidi Tampa peeks at each other to read my, deep into my mood.

"... Our people of Iga Southern are grateful to His Highness"

In the end, that's what Baidi Tampa said to squeeze out, and the conversation ended. Then two days later, there was no follow-up on my father's life and death. Even against the earliest allies, it was the slowness of information that only seemed to keep the death secret. He also told Kichinai and Oda that we won the first battle, and at the same time told them about the battles in various places.

Kii Front. Kumano Hayama is falling, the Kii people and the soldiers of Kumano Miyama are heading north on the east bank of Kii.

Yamato Front. Some Honganji forces join forces in the army of Miscellaneous People, Neruji Temple and Powder River Temple. Shunqing Tsui couldn't support this and was defeated.

Kichinai Front. Anti-Oda forces moved in Hanoi, Wazumi, and Regent. Trinity landed in Kichinai again, making the battle extremely unfavourable.

Young Narrow Front. Nagahiro Tanyu, who governs Young Narrow One Nation, confronts anti-Oda forces in post-Dan and Tampa. Surveillance continues at the Young Narrow/Post Dan border.

Omi Front. Hexagonal parents and children and Nagato Fujiyashi worked together to fan anti-Oda forces in Koga County, south of Omi. The border lines between the two countries are blocked and it is extremely difficult to transport information and supplies.

And.

Leaving May 14th. Soldiers against Shingen Takeda and the Oda family.
