Chapter two hundred and eighty fifth surprise attack

On the night of May 12, Yu Qiuping's family had another group of people!

Imagawa Kaede helped Yu Qiuhei give birth to a healthy little princess. The delivery process was very smooth, which made Yu Qiuhei, who was worried, breathe a sigh of relief. Because Imagawa Kaede often dreamed of the hill covered with maple leaves in the north of Junfu City during her pregnancy, Yu Qiuhei named her daughter "Cen".

After learning that Yu Qiuhei was happy to have a daughter, Mori Kecheng, who was also stationed in Kuroda Castle, Ikeda Hengxing sent people to send blessings. Ikeda Hengxing even pulled Yu Qiuhei to have a good meal together, but Yu Qiuhei refused on the grounds that "the war is imminent." However, Shibata Katsue seemed to be very unfaithful about this matter - he had never even entered the Tenshou Pavilion in Kuroda Castle. During the period when Yu Qiuhei went to war, Mori Kecheng's defense was responsible for the nearby defense. According to the left-behind Sena, Mori Kecheng's subordinates were completely unfair, and Mori Kecheng was even very kind to the subordinates of the Yu Qiuhei family, which made Yu Qiuhei very grateful.

Many of the Oda family members who were far away in Qingzhou also sent blessings. Needless to say, Ninoha Nagahide, Maeda Takiyoshi, and Sawaki Ryoko's relationships were good, Takigawa Ichii also asked Maeda Kyoji to bring a gift. Oda Nobunaga himself was a little disappointed. He actually sent an envoy to beat Yu Qiuhei to concentrate on preparing for the battle and not to accompany his wife and children all day long. Yu Qiuhei's passive slacking off work last time in Qingzhou City impressed him.

In just a few days, Naoe Tadaehime's wife also gave birth to a eldest son for him. Yu Qiuping felt deeply indebted to Naoe Tadaehime, so she made an exception and promised to let Naoe Tadaehime pass on his gift name "Ping" as the word "Tong", and gave him a young name called "Seniori Maru", and promised to name him when his son Yuanfu.

However, Yu Qiupi did not enjoy the happy life of his wife and children - because the situation between Mino and Ohara has become worse and worse.

On May 13, Nishimino Motoko County, Tianshou Pavilion.

"Banbingwei, what's the matter if you're so anxious to come?" Ando Mori was gathering the troops in his arms at this moment, taking time out of his busy schedule to meet his son-in-law, Shigeji Takenaka, who was rushing from Inabayama Castle.

"His Highness," Takenaka Shigeji saluted respectfully, and after a little greeting, he asked in a low voice: "What do you think about the current situation?"

"Oda Nobunaga is about to launch a fierce attack on His Highness Inuyama. I wonder if His Highness Inuyama can stop it." Ando Mori sighed, "The master must summon all the wealthy families to support us again. But as soon as we leave the territory, if the Asai family attacks again, the territory may be in trouble."

After listening to Ando Momoyuki's complaint calmly, Shigeji Takenaka asked again: "So what does father-in-law mean?"

Ando Mori glanced at his son-in-law, shook his head and smiled, "I'm not afraid of you making fun of it. I'll definitely send a few people to deal with it. The main force still has to stay in the territory. The main family is so unreasonable. Last time the Asai family invaded, he didn't even send a soldier to watch us defeat. He grabbed the power in his hands and acted recklessly. I wouldn't have to work hard for that young boy."

"What's wrong? Banjianwei?" Ando Mori looked at his son-in-law without saying a word and asked with a smile: "You big loyal minister, are you going to persuade your father-in-law to be more general and respond to the Saito family's call and go to reinforce Inuyama Castle?"

After a moment of silence, Takenaka Shigeji shook his head firmly.

"Please don't send troops," Takenaka Shigeji said in a deep voice: "Your father-in-law also asks you to contact the wealthy families of Nishimino, and please hold on and do not respond to the orders of the Saito family."

"Ah?" Ando Mori was shocked, and the teacup in his hand also fell on the table, making a "bang". "Ban Bingwei, why are you?"

"Oda gathers heavy troops, but Xutu Inuyama is actually intended to be Mino." Takenaka Shigeji judged confidently, "So I want to ask His Highness Simino to act inconsistent with the Saito family in order to paralyze Oda Nobunaga and lure the enemy into depth. The true mystery of using military tactics - underestimating the enemy."

"This..." Ando Mori was a little confused by the sudden amount of information, "But the entire Simino refused the orders of the master's family at the same time. Not only will the governor be majestic and the whole country be in turmoil; if the Oda family did not attack Mino, but went to attack Inuyama, our refusal to send troops would be a mistake! This matter is absolutely fine, it is too risky, and it must not be!"

"I can guarantee that the Oda family will definitely attack Mino," Takenaka Shigeji said firmly: "My father-in-law, please believe me, I will tell you the whole story slowly."

Seeing Ando Mori was still hesitant. Takenaka Shigeji raised his eyebrows slightly, stood up slowly, and confidently pointed his finger at the map hanging on the wall - Mino Ghana's location.

"I am willing to issue a military order." He said, looking back proudly and looking at Ando Morijutsu.

"Within ten days, no oath will be destroyed and no heads will be left."

On May 15, Oda Nobunaga ordered martial law nationwide. Pedestrians were prohibited from passing at various intersections, checkpoints, and city gates to prevent military information from leaking. At the same time, a large-scale investigation of the Saito family's detailed work began.

Nobuki Oda had a premonition that Oda Nobunaga's general attack was about to arrive, so he sent an envoy to ask Saito Ryuki for help. Although Saito Ryuki was addicted to alcohol and sex because of the gradual loss of power for two years, he was not a fool. He knew that he could not abandon his hard-won allies and ordered the all-American Nobuki to mobilize and support Oda Nobuki. Although the tyrants of Tomio and North American Nobuki were not very interested in the Saito family, they still obeyed the orders, just like the last expedition. The family elder Nagato Dori led the Endo family and Toyama family and other wealthy families, a total of more than 3,000 people gathered in Uenuma Castle north of Inuyama Castle. Saito Ryuki also sent Hiroone Nobuki to lead 3,000 directly to Uenuma Castle and Nagato Dori, and then entered Ohara territory.

However, the rich people of Simino could not even listen to the tune or not. They directly joined forces to reject Saito Ryuki's order and announced that they would no longer participate in the Saito family's strategy, which made Saito Ryuki lose face.

The furious Saito Ryuki was said to smash more than a dozen wine jars on the spot and threatened to kill Simino and the other three to drink. But the reality is so cruel. The Saito family had no choice but to use the powerful Simino family. Because the Simino family refused to send troops, the Saito family's troops suddenly became short of their strength, and Nagai Dori's troops did not dare to rashly enter the front lines such as Koko Castle.

At the same time, the combat preparations of the Oda family have been basically completed. Oda Nobunaga gathered 3,000 people in Kuroda Castle and nearly 7,000 people in Komakiyama Castle and Kiyosu Castle. It is obvious that they are going to attack Inuyama from both sides. Nakajima Toyogogu in Koguchi Castle is on high alert, and Oda Nobuki is ready to rush to the rescue of Koguchi Castle at any time.

However, just in the early morning of May 16, Kuroda Castle welcomed an uninvited guest - that is Oda Nobunaga himself.

All retainers located in Yeli County were called to the Tensori Pavilion in Kuroda Castle, and Oda Nobunaga had been waiting here for a long time.

"Why did the lord suddenly come here?" Shibata Katsuya, the oldest senior, was the first to ask, "But the plan to attack Inuyama has changed?"

"That's right." Oda Nobunaga nodded with a sneer, "There are some changes."

"The Oda family's goal of this attack needs to be adjusted, and it is no longer Inuyama Castle," Oda Nobunaga suddenly raised his arm and pointed to the north, "It is Inabayama Castle!"

Oda Nobunaga's words had already been released, and everyone present suddenly stood there as if they were struck by lightning - this is not a modification plan, this is Oda Nobunaga's sudden idea to kill himself! Inabayama Castle is the core of Mino and also the Saito family's residence! How could you fight at any time!

"The reason why I left so many troops in Kuroda Castle and the reason why I was reluctant to attack was to wait for this opportunity," Oda Nobunaga smiled confidently: "When everyone's attention is attracted to Inuyama Castle! When the Saito family army has been transferred to Inuyama Castle!"

"Most of the Saito family's direct troops and Tohoku Mino's army have reached Inuyama, and the rich people of Simeono basically do not care about the life or death of the Saito family. Then at this moment--" Nobunaga Oda pointed to the direction of Inabayama Castle in the north, "Inabayama Castle is already an empty city!"

"Yu has already issued an order that except for leaving Migoro to stay, all the troops gathered in Ohara this time rushed to Kuroda Castle!" Oda Nobunaga looked around at everyone present: "And as the pioneers, you will immediately cross the Kisogawa invasion of Mino and go straight to Inabayama Castle!"

"Your Highness, will you underestimate the enemy too much?" Yu Qiuping, who has always been conservative, couldn't help but remind: "Those who travel a hundred miles and seek profit will fall into the general! How can we kill to Inaya Mountain City in such a rash manner!"

"Hongye, fearlessness all day long can't be done. I don't have time to grind down one city and one city with the baby Ryuki Saito!" Oda Nobunaga interrupted sternly: "No one wants us to suddenly change our goals at this moment! Inayayama Castle is already an empty city! As long as we rush into Mino and capture Inayayama Castle this time, the Simino family, who are already in harmony with the Saito family, will surrender. The Saito family will also be greatly damaged and lose their prestige. The entire Mino will be unable to resist us, and can be declared!"

"The Oda family's hegemony is here!" Oda Nobunaga raised his hands and faced his loyal retainers, shouting loudly: "This will be a world-famous surprise attack like Naruto City!"

Oda Nobunaga's voice seemed to have magical power. It turned out that those retainers who were still undecided became confident after listening to Oda Nobunaga's ambitious words, and were ready to wait for the moment when they captured Inabayama Castle. The decades of battle between Ohara and Mino might really be able to end with a surprise attack!

As long as they can capture the almost empty city of Inahashan City!

On May 16, at 4 o'clock, more than a dozen reconnaissance cavalrymen from Shibata Katsuya's troops, as the pioneer, stepped onto the floating bridge built by Yuqiuhei Kiso River.

By expanding the perspective, you can see that a large number of Oda troops inside and outside Kuroda Castle began to gather towards Kisogawa.
Chapter completed!
