Toyotomi intends to start a full war with Tokugawa.

This news is absolutely true.

The news spread from Kyoto soon spread throughout the Toyotomi territory and then spread to the surrounding area, including all the people.

In fact, it is impossible for the people to not know it. Because the army is going to fight, the people will transport food and grass from the rear to the front line as usual. This is their obligation.

Since the people know, no one will not know. The people who know naturally include the Tokugawa spies hidden in the Toyotomi territory. They can easily know where the Toyotomi target is.

So the spy acted quickly and sent the news to Ishimi when Toyotomi gathered a large army to attack Ishimi.

After learning the news, Naomasa Ii immediately passed the news back to Tokugawa Ieyasu's location and asked Tokugawa Ieyasu for the support of the army.

He knew very well that this time he came, not just 20,000 people, but probably the main force of Toyotomi, and at least 70,000 to 80,000 people, he was not sure to lead his 4,000 Red Preparatory Team and 20,000 Kamihara Yasumasa to fight against the opponent's 70,000 to 80,000 troops, which was no different from seeking death.

The arrogant capital of the Chi Bai team often comes from the main force behind it. The combat effectiveness of the main force units is far less than that of the Chi Bai team, but it is not that difficult to deal with the Chi Bai team. After all, not everyone is as fierce as Zhao Zilong, and can kill seven in and seven out in the formation of thousands of troops.

Naomasa Ii had a full understanding of his strength, so he quickly asked Tokugawa Ieyasu for help, and at the same time he stepped up the construction of a defensive system, intending to fight a decisive battle between Ishimi and Toyotomi.

Naomasa Ii now has no big idea about mining the mine cave, so he really can't afford it. He sent miners to explore and enter it bit by bit, but in the end he was still trapped, and many miners were killed and injured, which led to many miners' resistance to entering the mine cave and greatly reduced their efficiency.

In the past half a month, Ishimi has only opened five mines for mining. All the rest have not been opened. Many miners dare not enter. And too many animals used to break through the trap died, and Ii Naomasa felt that he could not bear the cost.

How many traps did the damn Qin people set!!!

Although he defeated Asano Yukinaga, the joy in Ii Naomasa's heart quickly faded, and there was a lot of haze, and the psychological shadow was expanding infinitely.

This is all thanks to the traps of the Qin army.

However, no matter what, he still had to continue to stick to and clear all the traps in the mines, so that the miners would carefully break through the traps in the mines, resume mining of silver mines, and give the inexpensive Tokugawa finance a shot of the heart-warming agent.

After Tokugawa Ieyasu received the victory report and warning from Naomasa Ii, he also made many arrangements.

He gathered 30,000 elite troops from his own formation and about 50,000 Daming's army. The main force of about 80,000 people has almost been assembled, including the 20,000 vanguard troops brought by Kamihara Yasumasa, who brought Ishimi's 20,000 vanguard troops, and he himself brought 60,000 main force behind.

The logistics issues were also coordinated. Sixty thousand civilians and eighty thousand chariots were collected to transport food and grass. They could march into Ishimi when everything was ready. He had left Kyushu and set foot on the land of the state, ready to support Ishimi at any time, so that I could continue to stick to it.

Toyotomi's army should be more numerous than him, but its combat effectiveness and quality are probably not as good as him, because most of them are newly recruited, and there are probably not many veterans who fought with Toyotomi Hideyoshi and even Oda Nobunaga.

Either they died in North Korea or they died of illness or old age. The quality of the Toyotomi army has dropped greatly. Although there are many people, they have serious lack of combat experience, just like the 20,000 people of Asano Yukinaga's troops who were easily defeated by Naomasa Ii before.

So Tokugawa Ieyasu was not worried that he could not beat Toyotomi. What he was worried about was that Qin State would come in from behind, catch him off guard, and then turn the whole situation upside down.

If this was also overturned by the Qin army, then the entire Japan would be really over.

He and Toyotomi compete for the hegemony of the Japanese world. If the basic Japanese base is gone, what is the point of fighting for hegemony?

He was not completely unsuspecting the Qin army's movements, but in fact he was still a little suspicious, so his vigilance and intelligence had never stopped. While he marched towards Ishimi, he was dealing with the Qin intelligence coming from overseas.

However, after the Qin Dynasty was unified, the efficiency of counter-espionage was greatly improved. In the early years, the spies he sent to the mainland of the Ming coast were annihilated by a special black-clothed force of the Qin army, and the intelligence was questioned, and seventeen or eighteen intelligence points were dropped.

His intelligence personnel suffered heavy losses, so he had to send people from the local area to try every means to re-enter the Qin State to spy on intelligence.

The Qin State's attack on spies made Tokugawa Ieyasu very panicked. At the same time, he also felt that if the Qin army had such powerful means to attack spies in its own land, would there be an equally elite spy crew operating in Japan?

He couldn't control the Toyotomi family, but he could make the decision on his own one acre of three-point land, so he also launched a crackdown on Qin army spies in his own one acre of three-point land.

However, the effect was very small. So far, I have only caught seven or eight suspected people, but they still refuse to admit it. They cried and shouted that they were killed by him, making him doubt whether he had caught the wrong person.

The Daming intelligence network he had worked hard to establish over the past seven years was completely removed after the Great Qin ruled the world. This made him unexpected and did not react quickly enough. He almost became blind in the issue of the Great Qin. It seems a bit too late to make up for the loss.

But he had to fight this battle, even if he was uneasy, he had to continue fighting. If he didn't fight, he wouldn't be able to fight. If he didn't fight, the Toyotomi would not let him continue to seize Western Japan.

There is no way, I have to do this.

But he still had doubts in his heart. He always felt that he had to leave a way out for himself, just like when he fought with Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi before, leaving a way out.

He also left an elite enough force in his nest. If things were not good, he would immediately protect his family and important property materials and leave quickly on a boat and advance to the northeast of Japan, which is the unexplored Hokkien area.

In his opinion, if the Qin army was unfortunately attacked by him, then it would be impossible to run away on land and would disturb his advancement. So he simply let his family and property escape directly from the sea to the Essay. When he learned the news, he would run away without distraction. He would not worry about this and that.

As the existence of the King of Tortoise, in terms of escape and survival, Tokugawa Ieyasu is an absolute expert, the king of extreme survival, and the king of ninja.

In comparison, Toyotomi clan was much worse. He was devoted to preparing for war and prepared for war with Tokugawa clan. He decided to completely annihilate the main force of Tokugawa clan in Ishimi and unify Japan.

It was still when Daqin could not react.
