450. Dawn of Chaos
Shimazu Yoshihisa stood in the big tent with the letter in his hand for a long time, silent. This was what happened yesterday evening.
He was actually wondering why I could analyze the situation so clearly so clearly, and look like I was planning to win thousands of miles away.
When he met me on the sea, after hearing what I said, his mentality changed, especially in battle.
Hashiba Hideyoshi asked himself and Muri Furi to form a pioneer together, and it was a reason why he did this - as the ruler of Kyushu, the Shimazu family had always had an ambiguous relationship with the Muri family on their heads.
Especially with the joint efforts of Yoshikawa Motoharu and Maori Kohakigawa, the Maori family is booming and its power is tightly oppressing the Shimazu family! As the head of the Shimazu family, Shimazu Yoshihisa is naturally full of vigilance against the Mori family, who has been in contact with for a long time and has never relaxed his vigilance.
Although Mori Hiromoto, as his nephew, is far inferior to his two uncles, Maori Rangkawa, he is still a smart person. Hashiba Hideyoshi's arrangement is to let the Shimazu family and the Maori family compete with each other and guard against each other. This is really a good way to kill two birds with one stone!
Originally, Shimazu Yoshihisa planned to try his best to paddle, but after seeing me, his thoughts changed. Especially last night, when he received a letter from the ninja, he knew that the time was up!
The Shimazu family is located in the eastward direction of the northeastern Yishu Castle, and the Maori Hiromoto is in the northeastern direction, and the camps of both sides are separated by ten miles. It is believed that the Shibata army in the south will definitely move, and will definitely arrive south of Yishu tonight!
What was he going to do? What was he trying to achieve? Shimazu Yoshihisa held the letter and thought for a long time. The reason why Hashiba Hideyoshi could tolerate himself working in front of him was to lure the Shibata family to attack, but he never succeeded.
Why can he succeed? What does he want to get from it? If he hopes that the Hashiba family and the Shibata family will suffer losses, why should he tell himself?
Is it really because of friendship?
Shimazu Yoshihisa was puzzled. He didn't believe that there was real friendship in this world - of course, it means that in a hostile war state, but Sun Qilan clearly sent a letter to tell himself that the Shibata family would go to Yizhou tonight and let him act according to the opportunity!
Confused, depressed, and even a little annoyed! What kind of information is this? What does he want to do?
Shimazu Yoshihisa walked around the big tent a few times, and was so frustrated that he walked to the door.
It was really cold in the early winter evening, and this ghost place in Goryeo was particularly difficult. He carried his hands behind his back and walked around the mound in front of the big tent a few times, found a gentle slope with sunlight and sat down.
Something seemed to be moving on the ground not far away! The afterglow of the setting sun pulled the shadows of the little things very long. When I looked closely, two groundhogs were snatching a round thing.
Is it a hazelnut? Or something else? Who knows, these little hibernating people seem to have woken up from hunger, ran out to find food, but ended up fighting together.
After fighting for a long time, the hazelnuts fell on the side, and the two groundhogs were still fighting. Suddenly, the two guys realized together and ran towards the round thing! As a result, the two groundhogs ran too fast and collided together, and rolled to the side!
After getting up, they stared at each other with caution and bared their teeth at each other, but no one dared to step closer to the hazelnut - because the wounds on their bodies were bleeding. If they fought again for a hazelnut, they would be seriously injured.
At this moment, something flew over in the air and poked straight towards the hazelnut! Flying in front of him, he held it in his mouth with no ink traces, and flew away with flapping his wings!
That's a lark!
Two groundhogs watched the damn thief stealing the food that should belong to him, and they were furious! They wanted to chase after him, but they really didn't have the ability to catch a bird!
The stomach was filled with fire, so I could only vent my annoying guy beside me! If it weren't for it snatching it, I would have taken it away long ago!
Another melee.
The battle between the groundhogs was as small as a gust of wind, and could not bring anything, but it caused huge waves in Shimazu Yoshihisa's heart!
He understood! He understood what Sun Qilan was going to do!
He wanted to make the Hashiba family and the Shibata family bleed together, but he didn't want one party to die! He wanted to bleed slowly until both were weak!
The Hashiba family Shibata family is the two groundhogs, and the Ming Dynasty represented by Sun Qilan is the skylark!
He sent a letter to himself, sure that he could guess what he was thinking. But he didn't say it clearly, but he was afraid that he would be considered a pretentious formation if he said it!
It must be like this! It must be like this! It must be like this!
Thinking of this, Shimazu Yoshihisa no longer hesitated and quickly summoned the retainers, including his younger brother Shimazu Iku, to arrange plans for the evening!
......
As night fell, soldiers from Shimazu and Maori families went to the hem of the city of Yizhou as usual to put on an attacking posture, and the city also responded as usual. Both sides were like old couples who had been married for 20 years. They were all fulfilling their obligations, and everything was very familiar and scattered, and they could even be said to be calm.
However, the Maori family discovered an unusual phenomenon - according to past experience, even if the attacks on both sides were done, they would continue until dawn. However, today they were different. The Shimazu family's team was halfway through but withdrew!
Yes, he withdrew without warning!
The general in front immediately told Maori Fumimoto about the situation. Maori Fumimoto was also secretly frightened and realized that something would happen. So he sent someone to contact the spy hidden inside the Shimazu family, trying to find the reason, and at the same time someone told the siege team ahead to withdraw as soon as possible and not perform alone there!
At the second update, the spies received news from Shimazu's family that they were preparing to attack the city with all their might tomorrow, so they would completely gather people tonight to regain their energy!
Why did he suddenly decide to attack the city with all his might? Isn’t this everyone acting tacitly? Maori Fumimoto was full of doubts. Could it be what Hashiba... mean? Then why didn’t he tell himself the same but told Shimazu Yoshihisa alone?
Could it be that the situation of the war is about to change drastically? What is the great impact of this siege? But... But as a nominal subordinate of the Hashiba family, shouldn't the Maori family be more trusted than the Shimazu family who joined halfway?
Maori Hiromoto thought hard but couldn't get the answer he wanted. He secretly hated himself. If his uncle Kobayagawa Takake was here, he would definitely see through everything!
Suddenly, he remembered what his grandfather Mori had warned himself when he was young - your talent is not as quick as others. If one day he feels confused about the future, then imitation is your best choice.
Yes, imitation! Maori Hiromoto's eyes lit up, and without saying a word, he called his generals and ordered the entire army to prepare for combat and be ready to attack the city with all their strength at any time!
Needless to mention the confusion of his subordinates, in the middle of the night, the vanguard team of Shibata Katsuya, led by the one-eyed dragon, arrived south of Yishu Castle and was ready to launch a raid at any time.
Yesterday morning, Shibata Katsuya suddenly sent someone to send superstition and urged himself to advance quickly. It was because he was rushing to take down Yizhou City because he had received some news!
Although the teams of Takeda and the other Uesugi have not kept up due to their position reasons, the strength of the Ida family alone will be able to capture Yishu Castle before its competitors can discover it!
As the leading military general in Ouyu, Masamune Ida has this confidence.
However, when we arrived at the last buffer point south of Yizhou City, the situation changed suddenly!
Shooting! Ida Masamun's team was shot from the north! They seemed to know their location, and all kinds of firearms were pouring in their direction! Many soldiers could not react in time and fell to the ground in the first round of attacks!
The savage of fire, Masamune Ida would not swallow this breath and immediately organized his iron artillery team to start fighting back! The ballistics intertwined north and south painted a cruel harvesting scroll, which was staged not far from the city of Yizhou!
Immediately afterwards, the archers from Goryeo began to shoot in the direction of Ida Masamune as ordered - that is, the archer troops of Park Sanyong and others. For a moment, Ida Masamune's troops began to be attacked from both sides, and the situation was very critical!
The one who opened fire to attack Masamune of Ida was the iron gunners of the Shimazu family. With the intentional design, they, together with the original enemy, the Koryo people, completed a head-on attack on the real enemy, the vanguard of Shibata Army!
Yes, this is a tacit collaboration between the Japanese and Gao Liren and attacking the Japanese! It sounds strange, but in the face of huge interests, the so-called difference between the foreign countries is not important at all!
Originally, Gao Liren, the real enemy of the Japanese, had become an optional decoration at this time because there was internal strife among the Japanese!
At this moment, another musket team behind Gao Liren also started shooting and was speaking Japanese language. However, in fact, it was a real basin of dirty water - this team belonged to Li Chengliang. The reason why he did this was entirely the idea I gave him before!
I would ask the ninja team to spread rumors within the Shibata family's sphere of influence, saying that the Emperor had secretly issued an imperial edict to Hashiba Hideyoshi. As long as he took down Yishu City and let Goryeo destroy the country, he would be named Guanbai!
In the Warring States Period, so many famous people beat their lives and deaths. The ultimate goal they were to be this Guanbai position! In other words, it is equivalent to the current cabinet prime minister, but the actual power is a hundred times greater than that of the prime minister!
In an attitude of believing that he would rather believe that he would not be trusted, Shibata Katsuya sent troops to rob Yishu Castle. Even if he could not take it directly, at least he could not let the guys from the Hashiba family take it!
I secretly informed Shimazu Yoshihisa and asked him to take the initiative to provoke a war with the vanguard of the Shibata family. I would ask the Koryo people to help him. In addition, Li Chengliang's side attack, the only way for Ida Masamune became to charge in the direction of weak firepower! Retreat at this time, it would be a delusion!
So, the plot began to develop in the direction I expected - the hopeless retreat seemed to be surrounded by three sides to choose to attack the enemy! This was also the only way at this time. Since there seemed to be only one enemy team in the north, and there were two in the west - in fact, there were two in the north of the west, but the Maori family did not fire, so in the dark, they were invisible!
The direction of charge Ida Masamun chose was the north, which was the direction of Mori Hiromoto - which I hoped he would do this - so their enemy in front became the Mori Hiromoto who stood aside and watched the fun!
Once the hand-to-hand combat began, it was out of control. The Maori family Ida family were all warriors, and the battle was tragic.
Li Chengliang and Shimazu Yoshihisa were silently behind their backs and used the Muskets and Arrows to take advantage of the rift.
As for the Goryeo people, huh, they have been forgotten...
The chaos continued until dawn, and the Maori Ida family suffered huge losses. The battle had to end early and each of them stopped.
The Shimazu family made great efforts behind their backs and gained a lot. They were secretly happy. There is no need to mention this. After dawn, they also pretended to be inexplicable, which made Maori Hiromoto, who had fought a nonsensical battle in the middle of the night, furious but speechless.
Li Chengliang's troops disappeared before dawn. As for where they went, only the pig teammate Gao Liren knew.
Later, Lakshin, who learned about the battle situation, asked me a question: Sir, what should I do if Ida Masamune does not attack Maori Hiromoto but attacks Gao Liren?
I glanced at him, smiled silently without saying anything. He asked again, and I asked back: What would you do if it were you?
Lakshen thought about it, looked at the cannons unloaded from the ship to be given to Li Chengliang, and suddenly said half of the sentence: Are you planning to join the Koreans...
I glanced at him without making any sound. Lakshun also returned to quiet. He also smiled without making any sound.
Chapter completed!
