Chapter 24: Bewildering

After discussion, Taiyuan Xuezhai decided to withdraw its troops. Although Matsuhira Hiroi and the retainers of the Matsuhira strongly opposed it, they still could not change Taiyuan Xuezhai's intentions! Suruga Country is in danger and cannot tolerate Taiyuan Xuezhai not returning to help.

"Send an order! Take a rest tonight and withdraw your troops tomorrow morning!" Taiyuan Xuezhai ordered.

"Hi!"

…………

It was very dark, it was really dark. Yukitaka Sanada brought 2,000 cavalry and 1,500 feet to touch the camp of the Imakawa army silently! Even though Xuezhai, Taiyuan, had been through a long battle formation, he could not have expected Yukitaka Sanada would launch a surprise attack at this moment. Due to the attack on Anxiang City several times during the day, the soldiers of the Imakawa family were very tired. With the order from Xuezhai in Taiyuan, they all slept very hard! Even the soldiers on duty were napping! Asabinata, who was patrolling the night, turned a blind eye to this. He knew that the soldiers were indeed very tired, and there were still many fierce battles waiting for them tomorrow to rescue Jun Mansion!

With the light of Imakawa camp, Sanada Yukitaka outside the camp saw all this clearly and smiled coldly, "It's God who helped me, the Imakawa army is not prepared at all. Now even if I can't eat the entire Imakawa army in one bite, it can still cause it to suffer heavy losses!"

"Master Yukitaka! When will we attack?" Yamamoto Kansuke asked in a low voice. During this night attack, Yukitaka Sanada did not bring Takeda Noriya to the camp, but asked him to guard the camp. Nian Sanada Yukitaka himself didn't know why! In short, he just didn't want Takeda Noriya to come with him!

"Wait a little longer!" Looking at Imakawa Camp, Yukitaka Sanada whispered, "It's not late at night yet, and the enemy soldiers have not yet slept to death! Wait until late at night before attacking!"

"What Lord Yukitaka said is extremely true!" Yamamoto Katsusuke said first.

As Yukitaka Sanada expected, before he fell asleep in Taiyuan, he was still pondering about how to repel the invasion of Takeda's army!

"It's late at night! Lord Chongfu, let's take a break early!" Seeing that the lights of the Taiyuan Xuezhai's camp were still on, Asaku Binatae walked in, he saw that Taiyuan Xuezhai had not yet fallen asleep.

"It's Lord Taineng!" Taiyuan Xuezhai woke up from her thoughts and said, "I'm worried! Takeda Haruno is not an opponent that can be easily dismissed. What's more, this time he launched a large-scale invasion. Our army was exhausted from returning thousands of miles to support, but the Takeda army was waiting for it. Our army had little chance of winning!"

"Then you have to sleep, right? Only by raising your spirits can you better command the battle!" Asahi Naitan smiled strongly. Of course, Asahi Naitan knew the severe situation, but he was even more worried about the body of this loyal Imakawa family's old minister. Taiyuan Xuezhai cannot make any mistakes, he is the backbone of the Imakawa family!

"Haha! Tai Neng said so much! OK! I'll sleep!" Taiyuan Xuezhai smiled and walked to the couch to sleep. Asahi Nai Tai Neng turned off the lights and retreated.

"It's time!" Yukitaka Sanada turned over his horse, pulled out his sword, pointed at Imakawa's camp, "Kill..."

"Kill!..." 3500 Takeda soldiers stood up and shouted angrily. The 2000 cavalry suddenly started, turning into sharp arrows, and skipping towards Imakawa camp.

"Enemy attack!" The night guards who were awakened from their sleep shouted in fear, "Enemy attack..."

What? The shouts of the defenders of Taiyuan Xuezhai who had just fallen asleep woke up. Master Oda Yoshi? Taiyuan Xuezhai still doesn’t know who the enemy is?

"Hurry up! Blow the trumpet and gather troops!" Taiyuan Xuezhai rushed out of the military tent, grabbed a soldier and yelled. Taiyuan Xuezhai knew that in this case, no matter how loud he shouted, he would not be of use as a trumpet.

"Hi!" After a moment, the "Wuwu" horn sounded. Thousands of people gathered in a short period of time, which shows that the soldiers of Imakawa Army are well-trained on weekdays!

"It's Takeda Army!" Looking at the cavalry that rushed back and forth and killed the Imakawa Army's squad soldiers, Taiyuan Xuezhai couldn't help but shout, "Sana Yukitaka actually attacked our army! What exactly did he want to do? Could it be?"

"It must be that Takeda Haruno ordered Sanada Yukitaka to hold back our army and prevent our army from returning to the Shun Mansion so that he could guide our Suruga Kingdom!" Asahi Naita, who rushed over.

"Not bad!" Taiyuan Xuezhai commanded his foot to resist the attack of Takeda cavalry, and said, "Sana Yukitaka is Sanada Yukitaka. More than 4,000 people dared to attack our army several times more than their own army!"

As the Imakawa army gradually gathered together, the impact of the Takeda cavalry gradually became slower! "Foot light formation to meet the enemy, and the archers shoot from the rear!" Seeing that the Takeda cavalry's advantage had gone, Taiyuan Xuezhai gave a decisive order!

"Hi!" The square formation was completed instantly! The sharp arrows like raindrops shot towards the Takeda cavalry who were dragged by the quadratic formation and could not move!

The sword in his hand kept blocking the arrow, and the Takeda cavalry were shot into sieves around him, screaming in his ears, and Yukitaka Sanada's heart was bloody! At all costs! No! The Takeda's soldiers cannot be allowed to die in vain! "Retreat!" Yukitaka Sanada ordered.

…………………………

The Imakawa Army camp was in a mess. Although Taiyuan Xuezhai resisted properly, in theory, Yukitaka Sanada's night attack was successful! The cost of nearly 500 cavalry deaths led to more than 800 Imakawa Army deaths, and the result of more than 600 losing their combat power was worth it!

"How many people have been lost?" When I was about to come to our camp, Sanada Yukitaka asked Yamamoto Kanasuke who had finished counting the casualties.

"There were 478 cavalry lost! Another 264 were injured! 96 of them were seriously injured, I'm afraid..." Yamamoto Kansuke was a little sad. His army's strength was limited, and the life of each soldier was very precious!

Sanada Yukitaka raised his hand to stop Yamamoto Kansuke's words, "Don't say it! I understand! Try to rescue the wounded soldiers!"

"Hi!"

…………

The casualties of nearly 1,500 people made Taiyuan Xuezhai a little unacceptable!

"Hmph! I actually suffered a loss! Yukitaka Sanada! You are very good!" Taiyuan Xuezhai sneered with the casualties sent by Asabinata.

…………

"Hahahahaha..." I couldn't help laughing to the sky when I received the secret report from Iga Ninja as soon as possible. It's so cool! The feeling of playing with the two great wise generals of the Warring States Period in their palms is so cool! "Dog bites the dog! It's so good! Keep biting! When you bite it, it's time for me to clean up the mess! Hahahaha..."

...

"Hey! This time it's a cheaper one, Master Oda Yoshi!" Looking at Taiyuan Xuezhai, who had just cleaned the battlefield in Anxiang City, couldn't help but sigh. Wait! Taiyuan Xuezhai seemed to feel something! "I fought with Yukitaka Sanada, and the biggest beneficiary will only be him! - Master Oda Yoshi! Could it be?...come!"

"What are the instructions of sir?" A young soldier ran over!

"Where is the messenger who came to send the orders from the master?" asked Xuezhai, Taiyuan.

"I don't know very well! It seems that I will report to Jun Mansion in the afternoon!?" The soldier was a little unsure.

"I want a positive answer! Do you know?" Taiyuan Xuezhai said angrily.

"I don't know, I'm not sure!" The soldier was so scared that he almost bit his tongue.

"I think so! Master Oda Yoshi! This is your trick again? Humph! Look at me using my plan to capture your Anxiang City! Hahaha..." Taiyuan Xuezhai laughed.

At this time, Yukitaka Sanada also realized the strangeness of the matter!

"Sir Kanasuke, Lord Nori! Tell me, our army and Imakawa army are fighting hard, who will be the happiest person?" Sanada Yukitaka asked, pinching his beard.

"Master Oda Yoshinori!!" Yamamoto Kansuke and Takeda Noburi replied without hesitation, "Can..." Yamamoto Kansuke and Takeda Noburi seemed to have some insights.

"Not bad! I suspect this is Master Oda Yoshi's trick again!" Sanada Yukitaka said coldly.

"Then we?..." Yamamoto Kansuke asked.

"We'll use the trick! I think he should have noticed it with his ability in Taiyuan Xuezhai!"

"Master Yukitaka! How can we use our tricks?" asked Noburi Takeda.

"We……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Okay! Just as Lord Xinglong said!"

……………………

The next day, a man who claimed to be a messenger of Takeda Army secretly walked into the Imakawa Army camp. Although it was very secret, he was still caught by his eyes...
