Chapter 323 Jingji was captured
Kyoto Takashi was a good martial arts strategy. With his brother-in-law relationship with Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Hideoho, he was able to obtain the trust of Toyotomi clan. As a general who was the only one side, he was against Toyotomi Tadashi. The legitimate son of Toyotomi clan, like other Toyotogawa clan's second-generation official, although his political strategy was good, he was unfortunately not inherited the courage and fighting of his father Toyotomi mosaic. The game between the two generals was almost unobtrusive, and they followed the rules and fought. However, due to the advantage of the number of people, Kyotoki's morale was even better. In addition, Muri Hidemoto on Kohiyama also went down the mountain to support him, delaying Naito Masaru's military power on the northern foot of Kohiyama, so that Kyoto Takashi could attack Toyotomi Tadashi wholeheartedly.
Under this situation, Kyoto Takagi decided to let go of his hands and feet to attack with all his strength, suppressing all the three armies, intending to defeat the low-spirited Tadaoma Torii. But at this moment, Naomasa Ii suddenly appeared behind the Kyoto position, which was undoubtedly a blow to the unprepared Kyoto army.
Naomasa Ii was originally intended to avoid the attack of the Toyotomi army. Unexpectedly, he accidentally entered the position of Kyotoki Gaoji. He did not expect that Kyotoki had already suppressed all his troops at this time. In this formation, except for Takagi himself and more than 200 Ma Takagi, there was no extra combat force.
"How can you miss this opportunity?" Ii Naomasa and his servants beside him looked at each other and roared, ordering Ai Bei under his command to attack Kyoto's high-speed team immediately!
Successfully, he supported 1,000 Honda Tadamasa and lost more than 800 people in the Mazha area. However, Ii Naomasa's military strength is still an irreversible advantage over the more than 200 people in Kyoto's high ranking.
"It is as fast as the wind, and it is as plundering as fire." Ii Chi Bei, guided by Takeda's military strategy, has a rapid movement and a fierce attack. In the plains of a horse, how could a daimyo such as Kyoko Takagi be able to withstand it? Under the leadership of Ii Naomasa, nearly two thousand cavalry Kyoko spread like fire on the turbulent fire on the Hiranu. The earth shivered under the trampling of war horses. The tremor quickly alarmed Kyoko Takagi in the formation. He was about to send someone to investigate, but was stopped by a warrior who broke into the formation.
The samurai was sweating profusely and reported with a nervous expression: "Lord, something is wrong. The Tokugawa family's Iikami attacked from the rear. They are about to arrive at our formation. Please get on the horse and retreat quickly. It will be too late!"
"Ii Ai Bei?!" Kyoko Takagi was shocked and almost fell to the ground. He grabbed the samurai's clothes and asked loudly: "What's going on? Shouldn't Ii Naomasa be fighting Nasu Awaji, how could he run behind our army?"
The samurai shook his head and replied, "I don't know, but I came to report not long ago that Ii's army is indeed fighting with Awaji, and for some reason it appears near our army..."
"Forget it, prepare the horse quickly, I'm going to see Prime Minister An Yi!" Kyoko Takashi was almost crazy. He knew the speed of Ii Chi, and if he didn't run away, he would have to kill him.
Unfortunately, it was too late. As soon as Kyoto Takagi had just walked outside the tent, Ai Bei, the vanguard of Ii Naomasa, rushed to the formation. The razors of the Tokugawa cavalry chopped at the almost unprepared Kyoto sergeants. The hurriedly formed defense line was disintegrated for a moment. Ai Bei, wearing red armor, attacked back and forth in the formation, frightening the Kyoto army to flee everywhere. Naomasaki Ii rushed into the formation with a long spear. After learning from the wounded soldiers about Kyoto's overall position, he immediately led an elite team to fight. Unfortunately, Kyoto Takagi had just ridden a war horse, and was surrounded by the Tokugawa army that was coming towards him before he ran a few steps.
Faced with the powerful Ii Ai Bei, the only samurai remaining by Kyoko Takagi was not timid, but the enemy was disparate, and they were all killed in a moment, leaving Kyoko Takagi alone immediately surrounded him, staring at the surrounding Tokugawa army with a panic expression.
"Long time no see Prime Minister Otsu."
Kyoto Takaji looked in the sound and saw Naomasa Ii ride from the encirclement to come to him and greet him with a smile.
"The Akabi of the Ministry of War is really an elite force. In just one moment, he defeated the Ma Feng who was under his command. I really admire him." Kyoko Takagi replied tremblingly.
Ii Naomasa knew that Nasushiki and Kawajiri Hidenaga's pursuers were about to arrive, so he didn't keep it in his mind and asked bluntly: "The attendant of Ina (Kyoto Kochi) has joined the camp of his family. For his sake, I can let you go, but you have to agree to lead your six thousand troops to turn against each other, help the inner palace defeat the right palace and protect the young master's territory."
"Protect the young master's throne?" Hearing this sentence, Kyoto Takashi sneered, "Do you believe that you said? If the Right Mansion had not turned the tide, the world would be belonged to the Tokugawa family, right?"
"Don't say more," Ii Naomasa growled, "Agree or disagree, Your Highness just tells me."
"God's will is so will Gao Ji do what can Gao Ji do?" Kyoto Gao Ji smiled bitterly.
"What do you mean?"
Kyoko nodded with a serious expression: "Just as the Ministry of War said."
"It's so good." Naomasa Ii laughed and comforted: "Don't worry, your highness, as long as you can turn against me, my family will definitely win the final victory!"
After saying that, Naomasa Ini Ii signaled the military to make a way out, and walked from Kyoto Takashi to the front of the team, and marched towards the battlefield where the Kyoto Army was located with Naomasa Ini Ii.
The Tokugawa army raided the Kyoto main formation. This scene was clearly observed by the Maori army stationed on Kohiyama Mountain. The guard general Mori Hiromoto immediately sent someone to Mori Hidemoto at the foot of the mountain and suggested that he immediately send troops to block Ii Naomasa.
Initially, Naomasa Ii was to go directly to the battlefield where Torii Tadamasa and the Kyoto army fought fiercely, persuaded the three armies of the Kyoto army to join forces to wipe out the seven thousand troops of Muri Hidetomoto, and then attacked Hideobo's main formation from the side.
But he ignored one thing, that is, although Muri Hidemoto fought fiercely with Masazen Naito, he was different from Kyoto's high order and did not send all his troops. He still had two thousand troops as reserves stationed in his own team in case of emergency.
After receiving the news, Maori Hidemoto immediately convened an army discussion. He believed that although it was difficult to win against 2,000 to 6,000, it could delay time and buy time for the arrival of Nasushiki and Hideaki Kawajiri. Not only that, the raid of the Maori army could also disrupt the situation and take the opportunity to rescue Kyoto high-ranking times and prevent the Kyoto army from turning against each other.
The situation was urgent, and the retainers of Maori expressed support for Hidemoto's idea. General Watanabe Nagata led 1,500 troops to ambush the Ii army on the road that must be passed on at the northern foot of Kohi Mountain, while Māori Hidemoto himself led 500 people to take charge of the formation, so as not to repeat the mistakes of Kyoto's high order.
At the same time, the envoy sent by Nasushiki also reported to him the battle situation of the Kyoko Main Formation. In fact, Nasushiki and Kawajiri Hidenaga were not too far from Ii Naomasa's army at first, but Ii's army was mainly cavalry, while Nasu and Kawajiri were mainly iron cannons and foot lights, so the pursuit speed was naturally a beat slower. When they arrived at the Kyoko Main Formation, Ii Naomasa had already left.
