The Moribe Battle ended before the evening. The Oda family battled against the two senior commanders of the Saito family - Nagai Yui and Hibino Kiyomi, who were both famous officials of Saito Liusu. The Saito family also died in this battle and captured more than 27o people, most of whom were subordinates of the Hibino family. After this battle, the Hibino family could be said to have been greatly injured. Not only did the head of the family die in the battle, but the internal team also lost more than 20%, and the rest were disintegrated. The three families who signed a contract without a fight with Yu Qiuping also took the opportunity to regain their territory.

However, the Saito family's direct troops did not suffer much loss. Most of them had already retreated on their own before Nagai Mei'an was killed. Even the troops around Nagai Mei'an did not suffer much casualties because the Oda family gave up the pursuit.

However, even so, after this battle, it was enough to make the Mino Saito family very scared. After Oda Nobunaga rested for one night, he ordered the troops to build a floating bridge in the early morning of May 15, crossed Nagara River to the west, and marched into Sumata. The reserve troops of Ikeda Yoshihiko and Sasa Natsumasa finally left Kiyoshi Castle on May 15 and began to build the food route and supply line.

At the same time, intelligence was coming.

All the wealthy families of Simino, big and small, have already assembled their troops and are ready to guard against the Oda family's invasion. The total force may be close to 7ooo - this is not something that many of the 4ooo people at Oda Nobunaga's hands can compete with.

On the contrary, the information coming from Inaya Mountain Castle is improving.

Inside the city of Aoye Mountain.

"What's going on with the young master? Are you still drinking?" As the teacher of Saito Ryuki, Hiroki Hiroki has found the guards of Tianshou Pavilion for the fourth time. "The Oda family is already in a big way! Why does he refuse to meet his retainers for three days! I want to go in and meet your highness!"

"Report to His Highness Rigeno," the guard replied casually: "Your Highness said that no important officials in the family will be seen!"

"Young Master!" Hirohiro Hiroshi looked angry, "Now is not the time to play! The frontline was defeated, and Sumata has been lost! How can you still spend money here!"

"Hongju, please say less," Zhuyao who came with him said, "Also, don't call the lord the young master directly. Yesterday, because he was called wrong, a servant was beheaded. Have you forgotten?"

"He dares to kill his teacher?" Hiroki Hiroki angrily shouted: "If this continues, the Saito family will be over! I don't know what's wrong with this child! I was still fine a few days ago, but how could he immediately fall into this as soon as he inherited the family governor!"

Just as Hirohiro Hiro roared angrily, a dissatisfied complaint suddenly came from the stairs on the first and second floors of Tianshou Pavilion.

"Teacher, you're too noisy."

Hirohiro Hiroshi and Zhuwa looked straight at the stairs, and saw a young man wearing a samurai bun in a blue dress. His face was plain and calm, and he looked like he was in a state of debauchery.

"Young Master?" Hiroone Nori was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you drink?"

"I've drunk, of course I've drunk. It's just that the drunk man's intention is not to drink." Saito Ryuki smiled contemptuously, "You're so noisy outside, which has also disturbed me to think about the situation of the battle."

"Young Master? It turns out that you are doing serious business inside!" Zhu Yao Zhiguang was also surprised, "Why did you ask so many singers and dancers to come in and ask for so many fine wine?"

"Hmph," Saito Ryukyoshi shook his sleeves and sneered, "Because in this way, everyone in the city knows that I, Saito Ryukyoshi, are having fun every night?"

Looking at Hiroki Hiroshi and Takeo Wawa Naohiko's puzzled gaze, Saito Ryuki didn't explain much and walked straight through them.

"Come on, call the troops, rectify the defeated army, and we will send troops." Saito Ryuki turned around and chuckled: "The new Saito family is defeated, and the new head of the new family is another lewd and lewd person."

"Oda Nobunaga must have been unable to wait to lead his army north and head straight to Inabayama Castle."

·

"Hehe, this Saito Ryuki, this nephew Yu is really licentious!" Oda Nobunaga laughed after hearing the information sent back by ninjas in Inayayama Castle, "I thought Inayayama Castle was unbreakable, and his father's body was not cold. Yu Dajun was in the verge of the border, but he still dared to sing and sing every night."

"I don't see my retainers and ignore political affairs. Inabayama Castle is already in chaos." Nobunaga Oda laughed and stood up, raised his right arm in the direction of Inabayama Castle, and slowly clenched his right hand into a fist.

"Inahayama Castle is already in Yu's hands."

On May 15, the Oda army left Yu Qiuping to stay in Sumata. The large army began to travel north along the west coast of Nagara River in the rain, avoiding the territories of the major families of Nishimino, and directly driving directly to Inayayama Castle. Perhaps the situation was really urgent. On May 16, after gathering the defeated army, Saito Ryuki sent troops from Inayayama Castle. They went south along the east coast of Nagara River in the rain, and confronted the Oda army in the fourteen areas across Nagara River.

According to the ninja report of Inayay Castle, Saito Ryukyo was already drunk and unconscious when he sent troops. It was Hiroki Hiroki and Takeoyao Naoki, who were forced to carry him out of the Tianshou Pavilion in order to stabilize the morale of the army and placed him in a sedan chair. After sobering up, Saito Ryukyo also showed off his chariot along the way that he was the commander of the 4ooo army, threatening to fight to the death with Shishijo and Oda Nobunaga's main force.

But soon after, he got drunk again. It was precisely because the head of the family was unconscious and could not make any decisions that the Saito family's troops had not made any mobilization since they arrived at the 14th order. Hearing this, there was a lot of joy in the Oda family's tent, and they were full of confidence in the upcoming battle.

"Putting the troops to such people is simply suicide!" Maeda Takiya mocked disdainfully at the time. "I want to fight our main force to the death in Shishijo? Then come!"

"Old Master Dao San once said that his son is only worthy of Yu Qianma," Oda Nobunaga laughed and said, "Look at Yiyu, Saito Yoshiro can be a general of Yu. This Saito Ryuki can really only be the one who can give Yu Qianma!"

"Tonight, I will take good care of myself, and tomorrow morning, I will follow Yu to the river and break the Saito family!"

On the morning of May 17, Oda Nobunaga was woken up by Ikoma's kiss.

"Your Highness, there is something wrong with the Saito family, and it seems that it is going to march." Ikomaki reported.

"Abnormal movement, what kind of abnormal movement? What kind of abnormal movement can it be caused?" Oda Nobunaga smiled disdainfully, "Is Saito Ryuki going to escape back to Inabayama Castle?"

"This...is not clear." Ikomaki said honestly.

"Has the rain stopped?" As soon as Oda Nobunaga asked, the drizzling sound of rain outside the tent answered him. "The rain hasn't stopped yet, it's really bad luck."

"It's been three days since the rain, and the water has risen a lot. It's even more difficult to cross the river." Oda Nobunaga complained again, "Just tell the guard post to pay attention, so that the avant-garde Misaemon will be more vigilant."

"Doesn't the entire army need to be mobilized, Your Highness?" Ikoma said in a correct manner.

"No need," Oda Nobunaga yawned back on the Xinjun bed. "After the water rises, there is no suitable ferry in the fourteen areas. How easy is it to cross Nagara River?"

"Beside it is Saito Ryuki," Oda Nobunaga sneered, "What can he do and he has no tricks."

However, before Oda Nobunaga could sleep for a long time, Ikoma Kiss came again - and there was also Morikazu, who was avant-garde.

"Misaemon, what's wrong? The Saito Army went north to return to Inabayama Castle?" Seeing that Morike CD came in person, Oda Nobunaga also cheered up.

"Your Highness," Moriko-sung said in a deep voice: "The Saito army has gone south. I suspect that their target is the Nineteen Villages."

Oda Nobunaga was stunned for a moment, immediately jumped up from the bed, ran barefoot to the table with the map.

Nagara River is in the west and Kiso River is in the east. After the two meet in Mino territory, they merge southward, cutting the entire area into three parts. Ohachi in the southeast of Kiso River, the middle part between Nagara River and Kiso River, and the part west of Nagara River.

The original route of the Oda army was to cross Kisogawa from Yeli County and enter the middle area. Oda Nobuki built nineteen villages there as the retreat and foothold of the Oda family. Later, in order to guide Sumata, Oda Nobunaga crossed the Nagara River to the west, which was equivalent to coming to the westernmost part of the three areas.

Inabayama Castle is located in the middle of the two rivers. The Saito Army heading south along the east bank of Nagara River is also located in the middle area - the area where the Oda family retreats.

At this moment, the Saito family will directly cross the plain of the Ichima River and head towards the Oda family's retreat - the Shijiujo Village. The Oda family's army wanted to reinforce, but had to cross Nagara River first.

Because of the journey of Kaige and too much despise Saito Ryuki, who was only 15 years old, the Oda family members had never considered it: the Saito army came to confront the main force of the Oda family. Saito Ryuki claimed to fight Oda Nobunaga to the death of the Fourteenth Joya, which was a fool. His real goal was the nineteenth Joya village in the south. Who would have thought that the extremely licentious Saito Ryuki would suddenly give such a decisive order! If the back road is cut off, the entire Oda family army would be trapped in Mino! And Oda Nobuki who guarded the back road had only 50 people.

"I'm careless!" Oda Nobunaga slapped his head suddenly and shouted immediately: "Call the entire army immediately! Cross the river immediately!"

·

However, it is not that easy to cross the river. Due to the heavy rains for many consecutive days, the Nagaraya River has severe water rise, and several bridges in the fourteen areas have been flooded, and there is no suitable ferry. Oda's family cannot cross the river at all. In desperation, Oda Nobunaga had to order the entire army to go south immediately along Nagaraya River and return to the same road, and cross the river from the floating bridge when he came.

"Send the order! Let the closest Yuqiu red leaves come out of Sumata immediately and cross the river through the floating bridge!" Oda Nobunaga shouted, "Support the 19th Village!"

However, when Yu Akihei received the order, he did not act immediately according to Oda Nobunaga's order.

"Your Highness Hongye! Why are you standing there? Hundred Thousands of Instant!" Lai Long, who came to pass the order, urged anxiously.
