The news that Yuhara was about to be defeated reached Okubo shortly after he arrived at Abbothara. Okubo, who originally planned to attack the Hideobo main formation with Kamihara Yasumasa from north to south, faced two choices at this moment: one was to give up the surprise attack and return to the original formation to participate in the positional war; the other was to act immediately and attack the Hideobo main formation, forcing Hideobo to recall Yuhara's military power to support, thereby reducing the pressure on Kamihara Yasumasa.

Although the former can protect himself, it is unrighteous for Kamihara Yasumasa. Moreover, the Tokugawa family has become a disadvantage, and it is difficult to win the positional battle, and it is difficult to change the situation even if they return to the original formation. Although the latter is a bit risky and wants to use the 8,000 troops to fight against Hideo's 10,000 elite troops, due to the surprise attack, it unexpectedly shocked the enemy far more than conventional wars, and perhaps there is a great chance of winning.

After thinking about it, Tadasa Okubo chose the latter. He informed Hirokazu Yoshikawa, who was responsible for the front battlefield, and Yoshikawa understood that he could only follow the Tokugawa family to the dark side at this time, so he had to support Okubo's plan.

As the sun sets, Xiu Bao stood outside the gate, looking at the smoke in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that it's difficult to achieve results today."

Aoki Kusumi, who was with him, nodded in the spot: "That's the case, but if you continue to fight like this, you will defeat the inner palace tomorrow at the latest. After all, both wings of the Tokugawa army have been defeated, and the situation of Yuyuan is gradually becoming clear. Moreover, reinforcements from northern Sichuan will arrive tonight. With their strong military advantage, they will definitely be able to defeat them in one fell swoop tomorrow."

"But what about tonight?" Hideopo sighed softly, "Tonight is the last chance of the Tokugawa family, and the inner court should know this."

"So the lord dispatched 5,000 people from Fujido's Fujito to the flank of his own?" asked Aoki Hirou.

Xiu Bao nodded slightly: "Look at the plains around our formation. If there are cavalry raids, it is hard to say whether they will suffer a heavy blow. However, the marching at night will inevitably ignite torches, and the inner palace will not be so dull. Therefore, if you want to raid, the best time is evening. That is, now, if you don't do it at this moment, you can only wait for our army's full attack tomorrow."

"I heard that Aizu Nakana has surrendered to my family. I wonder what the lord is going to do?" Aoki asked worriedly. His sister is the wife of Nobuno Iwai, the general of Uesugi, and it is natural for people to worry about him.

Logically speaking, Aoki Kusu cannot interfere in military and national affairs when he is so close, but out of trust in him, Hideo still gave him a little tip: "After all, I will be lost and turn against my family. As long as I try my best in the next battle, I should be able to maintain Daming's status; as for Aoki, you don't have to worry about it, I came from the Aoki clan. I will be worried for the rest of my life."

"I thank you lord for your sister!" Aoki Kusu suddenly knelt down. He was such a person who values ​​friendship, and this is why Hideopo trusted him very much. No one family would like to have too many loyal ministers and righteous men.

"No need to do this," Hideopo bent over and patted his shoulder, and smiled and said, "You Aoki clan is loyal to our family. How can I let you down? When this battle ends, I will give you another reward."

"Thank you, lord, for your kindness, I will never forget it!" As he said that, Aoki Kusu knelt down again and kowtowed three times in a row, and stopped until Hidepo held him.

The sky was getting darker. Xiu Bao, who had been busy for a day, was also a little tired. He turned around and returned to the formation, preparing to take a break in his spare time without much change. With the care of Aoki Kusu, he returned to the formation leisurely, but he did not know that an 8,000-person surprise attack unit on the opposite side was ready to fight, ready to give himself a final kill at any time.

At this moment, Yoshikawa Hiroya confirmed through the Nanman Mirror that Hideopo was in his own formation. He was excited and remembered the words of Tadasa Okubo: "Be sure to launch an attack before the sun sets. The smoke from the cooking stove rises, which is the time when the enemy is most relaxed; take the initiative. If you can break into this formation and kill Hideopo, it is naturally the best. If it is difficult to break into, turn around and retreat, lead Toyotomi army out of the formation, and I will attack the formation again from the flank, and I will definitely win in one battle!"

Tadasa Okubo's words are very clear, and it is to let the Hiroki Yoshikawa as bait to lure the Toyoko army out of the formation so that the Toyoko army can take advantage of the opportunity. Hiroki Yoshikawa is not a fool, and raids 10,000 with 3,000. Even if the opponent is cooking, he will have troops no less than his own to defend and cannot win at all. luring the Toyoko army to pursue and then create opportunities for Tadasa Okubo, which sounds great, but the Toyoko family who ultimately killed Hideobo was the Toyoko family, and he was completely incomparable to Okubo. Not only that, the threat coefficient is several times higher than that of Okubo. The elite cavalry of Hideoko's formation and the elite iron gunners of the Imperial Horse Warriors. With these two powerful reserves alone, the possibility of the Yoshikawa army retreating is almost zero. Perhaps even his life must be taken. If so, he will be really lifeless.

Thinking of this, the initial firm will of Yoshikawa Hiroki began to shake, but the arrow had to be fired. Under the surveillance of the army sent by Tadsas Okubo, Hiroki Yoshikawa had to order the entire army to fight with a determination to die. Just wait for the smoke from the opposite camp to rise, the entire army attacked and tried its best to break through the Hidebo main formation.

At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Hirokazu Yoshikawa finally waited for the signal to attack. In the formation, the water in the big pot began to boil, and the thick smoke from the firewood mixed with water vapor floated into the air. The front line was in a hurry, so the soldiers certainly had no chance to sit down and enjoy delicious food, and could only rely on the rice balls they carried with them to fill their hunger. But the military force that sticks to the formation was different. They were far away from the battlefield and there was no need to eat the dry food they carried with them. The delicious soup and fragrant rice were rare "privileges" on the battlefield.

Although it was time to cook, the elite troops who were sticking to their own formation did not relax their vigilance as expected by Tadashi Okubo. Instead, they strengthened their vigilance under Hideo's intentional instructions and frequently inspected outside the military camp. This made Hirokazu Yoshikawa a little difficult: "Since the enemy's guard is strengthened, the surprise attack will not achieve the expected results. Do you still have to bite the bullet and attack?"

"Everything is in accordance with the instructions of Lord Okubo!" Sakai Tadashi, as the supervisor, replied in a unquestionable tone. He also understood the result of this, but in addition, he had no chance to attack the Hidebo main formation and gain time for Yuhara Kamihara Yasumasa. As Yasumasa's son-in-law, both in terms of emotion and reason, he had to strengthen the will of Yoshikawa Hiroki and lead the army to the battlefield without hesitation.

Under Sakai Tadae's repeated urging, Yoshikawa Hiroki had to wear his hands on the battlefield. He rode a war horse to the front of the army, and mobilized passionately, which improved the morale of the soldiers under his command.

"The former is the main formation of the rebels of the Right Prefecture. The rise and fall of the Maori family is here. Don't retreat, otherwise the military law will deal with it!" Seeing that everyone's face turned pale, Hirokazu Yoshikawa changed his tone and said peacefully: "You don't need to be nervous. This time, the inner government sent Lord Okubo to support him. You will definitely be able to successfully attack! On the battlefield, everyone just fights to kill the enemy. No matter how many, there will be rewards after the war!"

"Ho huh hey!"
