Gifu Castle Castle Town, May 21, 1912.

Under the blue sky, the white king's vessel and the black king's vessel collide. Looking at the total number of troops, the Otomo Expedition would be more massive. It also looks good. The Oda family's total finishing touches. It was no exaggeration to say that it was a war of division.

But it is. Let me tell you something.

I still don't know. I still haven't won or lost. A few years later, is the scene spreading in Ninomoto the world of Taiping, or are you returning to the world of chaos? No one knows.

However, there was one thing I was clear about.

The one who wins this battle will be the king who will rule over all the people in the world. The end of this battle will determine the future that Hinomoto will follow for hundreds of years to come. Therefore, this battle is truly a world war.



Three mages, five thousand troops. Nobuo Oda and Tokugawa Ieyasu Allied Forces 15,000. The difference in strength between the two armies is threefold. The three mage armies, which are inferior in number, shall proceed prudently. If I was forced to attack, I would just be surrounded and crushed.

Therefore, Goro Zuo, who had taken command from the three mages, continued to devise solutions while giving top priority to understanding the situation. That said, it is unclear whether there is such a grace on the battlefield where every minute determines victory or defeat... At this time, Goro Zuo would never have asked for time.

However, fortunately, the war situation fell into a state of stalemate. A little but a little grace was born. However, just before the Nobunaga attacked the castle, the three magicians took their backs in an unexpected way, but it was a fate. It's just a coincidence if you say so. It was clear that Nobuo and the others, who had returned to sanity, would ravage the three mages by the violence of their overwhelming number.

Therefore, I cast a strange ploy. The [Third Magician] is a magic trick to expose the king who must never be taken to the front line naked. Too reckless a move. If you take a single shot of a current arrow, it will clog at that point. Since I was using a vehicle with no mobility, I was packed with enemy soldiers.

But that didn't happen. The people conscripted from Ogari did not know that they were the three mages. It was kept secret by Nobuo.

Naturally, the appearance of the three mages meant the dissolution of the cause that Nobuo had in mind. Confusion. Suspicion. Repentance. Rage. All sorts of emotions inhibited the soldiers' actions, and the three mages succeeded in gaining enough time. Shingoro and the others who were trying to revive at Gifu Castle heard Hajime's signal.

And finally, the time has come. From behind the Allied forces of Nobuo and Ieyasu, two thousand and five hundred Gifu forces led by Shingoro charged down the mountain.

The lid of the final showdown was cut.



It was the Three Magicians who took the lead.

"Run for Nakasu on the Nagara River for those who are unwilling to fight!" You're going to get caught up in this and die!! "

OH!?

Briefly, the soldiers who understood the words instantly fled to Nagara River first.

A fugitive with a weapon. The one who threw down his weapon and fled. He whose legs are stuck and he can't move. Those who are trampled and crushed. About a thousand of them. Of them, eight hundred went to Nakasu, and the remaining two hundred escaped in a desperate obsession like scattering a spider child. The strength of the Nobunaga army was reduced to 4,000, and the walls were broken and the general's neck exposed.

With that, Goro Zuo threw his next hand when everything was ready.

"Katsuzo! Split up and suppress the left and right!" The number of troops shall be 1,500 each! "

"Haha!... hey, Ranmaru!" You lead your brothers to the left! Well, the burden is less on the left side. If you say so, I'll just buy them time to run to Nakasu. I'll also use my talent store. Can't you do it!? "

"In other words, don't be ridiculous! There's plenty of room! Please don't let your brother get beat up so easily!"

The two of them ran their horses with an unstoppable smile, while tapping lightly. The two gazes never met, but there was a definite glimpse of trust.

Goro Zuo nodded vigorously and continued to stare at the faces of the Red Demons, the main unit of the Third Sorcerer Army.

"We will intercept the enemy head-on!" I left the front line to Keijiro. Infantry, hold your spears! This is the most burdensome place. The battle will be fierce. But we must never let the enemy soldiers get behind us! Let us know that our defeat is the defeat of the Oda family!! "

Ohhh!!

It moves with a powerful reply. If we fight in the streets, we won't be able to deploy a large army. You can overturn the numbers. Depends on who commands the soldiers.

The battle has already begun. When the third Master was transferred from Genjiro's horse to the side, Goro Zuo, who rushed to the side, bowed his head while on the horse.

"...... So, we are going to subdue the traitors together." Third Master, please pray for the soldiers at the end. "

"Yes, I understand....... I beg of you."

"Haha!... Genjiro, you're the Ranger." Don't take your eyes off the battlefield so you can move anytime. "

Got it!

"Ichibasai-sama, if the enemy soldiers reach deep into the main field, you will become the master and buy time." You are the last fortress. "

"Oh, I'll take care of it."

"At that time, Takamaru and the snow escorted him away." The destination is Ogaki Castle. If I told Lord Takeuchi about the situation, I would immediately receive the following instructions. Can you ride a horse? "

Of course!

I won't let you touch you with one finger!

"... good. I'll take care of it, both of you"

Yes!

Goro ran his horse to the center of the left formation, turning his back on the responses of the two men. We can't let the generals leave the battlefield any longer.

Well then, let's do it, my lord.

"... yes..."

The third magician, while feeling that his back hair is pulled, is guided by Takamaru and descends to the tail. I looked back one last time, but there was already no Goro left there.

Now, while we're doing this, the situation is still moving. Gifu is running down the slope with a roar. It seemed that the momentum would overwhelm the Nobunaga army as it was...... but after all, that man didn't move at all.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!!!

The two armies screamed at each other. It is the main road connecting Gifu Castle and Castle Town. The exit was a fierce battlefield washed with blood.

How could the Nobunaga army have responded to the ambush of Shingoro and the others? There are two reasons. The first is that we ran down the mountain road, and ten or so people preceded us. The second was that Nobuo, who commanded it, had recovered from the chaos earlier than expected.

"Infantry, hold your shields and step forward!" The number is fifty. At this pavement, it's not easy for them to charge at once. They take turns with each unit! You don't have to kill enemy soldiers. Focus on holding them back! And in the unlikely event that enemy soldiers turn around, don't be alarmed and wary of your surroundings except for the one-hundred!! "

Will!!

Four thousand soldiers responded vigorously to Nobuo's orders. Fighting spirit. Vitality. A grand standing behavior full of confidence. Unlikely to have been given precise instructions by Nobuo, Shingoro and the others were perfectly prepared for the charge.

Yes, this is all Ieyasu's business. Ieyasu was upset and shivering with fear when he was caught between the front and the back. Ieyasu was able to calm down by unlocking a few benefits, and gave him a solution to restore his confidence.

Of course, it was a cloth stone for me to move.

Ieyasu summoned Tadashi Sakai, Yasumasa Sakawara, and Naoshi Ini.

"Koheiji, Koheita, Wan Chiyo. Deposit two thousand each with the Lord. Scratch me."

Haha!

(In the urban warfare, hundreds of people knew that it was impossible to deploy a large army. Difference in forces. If the battle is prolonged, we have the advantage of being backfired.... but there's absolutely no fighting. Just in case, I'll do it thoroughly.)

Even so, Ieyasu didn't have to be cautious.

Koheiji

Haha

"Take the archers." They're the ones we're after. "

"... hahaha, I understand"

Immediately after that, the archers led by Tadashi Sakai fired arrows at the same time. It was the people of Owari who fled to Nakasu. Many people pierced through the rain of death.

Malice is stupid.
