In the early morning of March 30, the 14th year of Tenmon (146), south of Kyoto, Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, the southern army's main formation.
After the drums sounded, the Oda Army, as the vanguard, rushed out of the main formation in a mighty manner under the leadership of Oda Nobunaga. The 3,000 people were shocked to see him outnumber the tens of thousands. Oda Nobunaga even specially found him.
A large flag with the four characters "Pioneer of the Shogunate" written on it stood next to his horse seal, showing off in an extremely ostentatious manner. Behind him were the Hojo Army and the Saito Army.
At the fourth quarter of the Yin hour, the Oda army entered the unmanned Kwangmyo-in Temple. Two-quarters of an hour later, they once again captured the unmanned Tofukuji Temple. Oda Nobunaga excitedly climbed to the top of the temple's tower and waved the "
The banner of "Vanguard of the Shogunate" was raised, and at the same time, he kept shouting at the soldiers who followed: "The Oda Army has taken the lead for the Southern Army! Guangmingyuan and Tofukuji Temple are restored!"
"Hey! Hey! Roar!"
Being immersed in the atmosphere of "a once-in-a-hundred-year war", even capturing some uninhabited strongholds was enough to make the soldiers of the Oda family feel excited. However, it did not leave them much time to celebrate and rest, and asked them to continue
The order to advance came.
At Fushimi Inari Shrine 4 miles away, Takeda Harunobu led the main force of the southern army and began to advance northward towards Tofukuji Temple. At the same time, Rokkaku Joyori and Asakura Sotetsu also left with 1,000 Rokkaku and Asakura troops.
The main force is heading northwest, with the goal of crossing the river at Higashiyama Bridge on the Kamogawa River. Hosokawa Harumoto, on the other hand, safely takes 0,000 Hosokawa troops to stay in the main formation and wait - this is a mountain seat that only the commander and the general enjoy.
The privilege of watching the tiger fight made the other daimyo fight with blood and sweat, but the Hosokawa Army, who was recharging his energy, retained the ability to come out to pick up the peaches in the end.
"According to the arrangements left by Master Sekssai, the next step is to let the vanguard continue northward on the east bank of the Kamogawa River to capture Takio Shrine and Chisukein." Takeda Harunobu climbed to Mount Erihi, where Tofukuji Temple is located, and began
Look at the battle situation nearby. However, the Takio Shrine-Chisekiin generation has spread all over the streets and temples, and it is impossible to see the situation clearly. We can only wait for the vanguard to conduct reconnaissance.
"I don't know when Master Yukisai will take over the command." Takeda Harunobu said again and turned his attention to Mount Otowa in the northeast. According to the previous arrangement, the Imagawa family has secretly returned to the east of Kyoto and will move from the north of Mount Otowa.
Breaking into the city of Kyoto. At that time, Taiyuan Xuezai will climb Otowa Mountain, occupy the best view from the highest point, and command the entire battle from a high position. But before the Imagawa family's red bird horse seal is erected on Otowa Mountain, Takeda Harunobu will
Coordinate the progress of various departments on behalf of others.
"Master Yukisai's nominal plan is for the Oda Army, Saito Army, and Hojo Army as the vanguard to break into the east of Kamogawa and attract the Northern Army to double-team. Our reserve team left at Tofukuji Temple will move forward to assist
, to ensure the safety of the vanguard. The Asakura Army and the Hexagon Army, which crossed to the west of the Kamogawa River, attacked north and held back the enemy's main force on the west bank. At this time, the Imagawa Army would suddenly penetrate Kyoto from the north of Otowa Mountain and drive directly behind the enemy.
Double-team our main force from the north to the south and force out the last reserves of the Northern Army. At that time, no matter where the main force of 0,000 in charge of His Highness joins the battle, they will be able to defeat all the Northern Army on the front line with one blow."
Takeda Harunobu carefully savored Taiyuan Xuezai's military strategy, and had to admit that it was indeed a clever plan, making full use of Kyoto's terrain and the characteristics of street fighting. Kyoto is densely populated with buildings and the field of vision is not wide, so it is necessary to make a roundabout way; street fighting is not easy.
To quickly determine the outcome, use a small force to pull away the enemy's main force; it is difficult to judge the situation in a melee, so the Imagawa Army wants to capture Mount Otowa, the highest mountain in the southeast of Kyoto - every step is to hit the mark.
If Taiyuan Xuezhai's plan is really carried out by an army with the same hatred, there is no doubt that it will achieve a complete victory. Of course, this southern army with its own evil intentions cannot do it. Let them add icing on the cake for victory,
It is impossible to take chestnuts from the fire.
The Hosokawa family, the Rokkaku family, and the Wakasa Takeda family are related by marriage and can be regarded as an iron triangle. The Rokkaku family is currently working on annexing the Asai family in Kitaomi, which naturally has something to do with the Asakura family behind the Asai family.
Conflict. At the same time, the Asakura family also coveted the Wakasa Takeda family, and the leader, Hosokawa Harumoto, was also quite wary of the Asakura family's influence in Kinki. Therefore, the Hosokawa-Hokukaku-Wakasa Takeda v Asai situation was formed.
-The oppositional pattern of Asakura.
In the east, Imagawa and Takeda are a marriage alliance that shares honor and disgrace, and Oda and Saito are also related by marriage.
The Kawa family and the Oda family are in fierce confrontation, and the Takeda family also has evil intentions against Higashi Mino. And because the Hojo family is the mortal enemy of the Imagawa family and the Takeda family, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and the Hojo family will naturally be close to the Oda family and the Saito family. So.
, the confrontation between Imagawa-Takeda v Oda-Saito-Hojo is also very clear.
Considering the secret relationship between the Imagawa family and the Asai family, the Imagawa-Takeda group seems to be more inclined to get closer to the Asai-Asakura group. On the other hand, the Asai family and the Saito family were quite unhappy after the Taya Meimasa coup, and they bordered each other.
The two families also have territorial disputes, so the Saito family has the intention to join forces with the Asai family's enemies, the Rokkaku family. Hosokawa - Rokkaku - Wakasa Takeda - Saito - Oda - Hojo v Asai - Asakura - Imagawa - Takeda
A large-scale group confrontation is also brewing, but it has not yet taken shape. The Kitahata family and the Tsutsui family, who came at the call of Hosokawa Harumoto, do not have a clear position and are still wavering.
Therefore, the actual plan is for Takeda Harunobu to lead the army to garrison Tofukuji Temple, while leaving the other daimyo troops at Komyoin. In other words, once the vanguard is attacked by the Northern Army, the Takeda army will block the reserve team from moving forward.
The way to support the vanguard hinders the speed of reinforcements. Of course, after all, it is in public, and it is not convenient to do everything. In the end, weaklings like the Kitahata Army and Tsutsui Army will be allowed to go to reinforce. But before that, let the vanguard first
The army suffered a wave of heavy losses, which depleted the strength of the Oda Army, Saito Army and Hojo Army.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Of course, Oda Nobunaga, Saito Dozo and Hojo Tsunari are definitely not fools. They knew that the Imagawa family and the Takeda family had the intention of selling themselves out, and they would definitely not
If you beat him so fiercely, you will most likely lose your job at Takio Shrine. Even if you get infamy, you can't lose your own capital.
Therefore, Taiyuan Yuzhai left a secondary strategy for Takeda Harunobu - the latter was watching the Asakura Army and the Rokkaku Army leave in the direction at the moment.
If the Oda Army, Saito Army, and Hojo Army really start to waste time, Takeda Harunobu will lead all the reserves to leave Tofukuji Temple and the Koumyoin front line, follow the steps of the Asakura Army and the Rokkaku Army, and cross westward
Higashiyama Bridge, entering the west of the Kamogawa River. Nominally, it is to cooperate with the Asakura Army and the Hexagon Army to attack the core of Kyoto on the west bank of the Kamogawa River. In fact, it puts the Oda Army east of the Kamogawa River in an isolated and helpless place.
By that time, the fighting west of the Kamogawa River will be intense, and the Northern Army will definitely find a way to break through the weak Oda, Saito, and Hojo troops east of the Kamogawa River, thereby outflanking the main force of the Southern Army west of the Kamogawa River. Is that really what happened?
At that time, even if Oda Nobunaga and the others wanted to fish, they would have to withstand the fierce attack of the Northern Army, and the damage would never be small. Wait until they are about to collapse, and then let the main force of the Southern Army withdraw to the east of Kamogawa. That can
By that time, the Imagawa Army had probably penetrated into the core of Kyoto, and the Northern Army would certainly have no chance to pursue the main force of the Southern Army.
The internal intrigues of the Southern Army were not much better, and the Northern Army was not much better. Instead, it showed a clearer trend of group confrontation.
The Ouchi and Otomo families are allies, Mori is a subordinate of Ouchi, and Kono is a vassal of Ouchi. The alliance between Ouchi-Mori and Otomo-Kono is almost certain, but the Ouchi and Otomo families may not care about each other.
The life and death of the other party's younger brother. And how willing the Ouchi family is to assist the Ouchi family and the mortal enemy Nizi family in the overt and covert fight is another question.
Due to the huge power of the Nizi family in China, the Sanin family of Sanin was also wary of its expansion speed. Therefore, Yamana and his ally Isshiki also held an anti-Nizi stance and were more interested in uniting with the Ouchi-Otomo family.
The Mimura family, the Akamatsu family and the Urakami family of Sanyo Road chose to be close to Nizi. The Mimura family itself was a subordinate of the Nizi family, while the Akamatsu family and its subordinate Urakami family were not on good terms with the Yamana family. Compared with the Tengao Emperor,
It is natural for Ouchi and Otomo who are far away to rely on the Nizi family instead.
As a result, the daimyo from Kansai formed the pattern of Ouchi - Mori - Otomo - Kono - Yamana - Isshiki v Niko - Mimura - Akamatsu - Urakami. On the contrary, the Miyoshi family, as the general of the Northern Army, and its sphere of influence
The Yusa family and the Hatano family were separated from the factional struggles within the Northern Army, and their stance was relatively aloof.
"Command is really tricky..." After going through the complicated interests and the relationship between the enemy and the enemy again in his mind, Takeda Harunobu felt that his head was going to explode. The military commander on the battlefield
He has no problem, and there is no problem with him being arranged vertically and horizontally on the negotiation table, but he has to combine the two - the command not only considers the battle situation, but also considers the interests and tendencies of each family - friendly forces may not necessarily be saved, but the enemy
The army does not necessarily fight, the actions do not necessarily follow military common sense, and the orders issued may not be obeyed by the daimyo. In this case, Takeda Harunobu really cannot grasp the development of the situation. I am afraid that only the old monster Taiyuan Xuezai can.
It can be done.
Therefore, Takeda Harunobu looked longingly at Mount Otowa in the northeast, hoping that Taiyuan Yuksai would quickly hit the red bird horse seal and take over the command, so as to end this torture of Takeda Harunobu's brain cells.
