Chapter 1195: Sneak attack, counter attack, victory over Mino
The Japanese mud-legged people of the Warring States Period and the people of ancient China were actually pretty much honest, with the same industrious and kind nature. Liu Shiba deeply agreed with this after seeing is believing.
Sitting on the horse stool in the middle of the open formation, Liu Shiba spent the whole night observing how these mud-legged auxiliary soldiers of the Takeda Army worked hard and miserably.
The auxiliary soldiers who were so hungry that they were dizzy had to work on their stomachs all night long. It was really miserable.
The main reason for the miserable work of these mud-legged people was naturally Liu Shiba's orders, which seemed to be issued by a mental patient.
The two thousand capable Takeda soldiers were also tortured all night by a new military commander named Yamamoto Tenfang and some vicious Akabi knights.
Yamamoto Tenfang was like an evil spirit, who specially broke up his forty-six knights to kill the retainers, and mixed them with the more than two hundred remaining red knights into a group of more than three hundred knights.
Another military commander named Honda Ergo specialized in training Ashigaru's daily marches and how to maintain a complete formation during the rapid impact of battles.
There was also Solanta, who directly threw the modified front-loading cannon ammunition to the forty-six red cavalry and some auxiliary soldiers.
Then, Solanta took the pitifully few native artillery ashigaru in the Takeda army to improve the already advanced three-stage shooting method...
Cuihua was drunk and happy. She personally took some bows and arrows with her and served them with a riding whip, learning some advanced archery skills.
As for the infantry, it seems that there are no dedicated generals or retainers to train them...
There is only one sentence released by the new family governor Takeda Shiba: If one person escapes, the entire team will be beheaded...
……………………
Liu Shiba was sitting in the main formation, feeling a little restless. As soon as he stood up and planned to walk out of the tent, he was persuaded to come back by a group of old retainers of the Takeda family.
Sanada Masayuki said repeatedly:
"Sit down, my lord. Why bother your lord with these menial tasks? We and my ministers will handle them properly. My lord can rest peacefully."
Baba Nobuka put it more directly:
"My lord, there must be a reason for being anxious. I wonder if you need a maid to serve you? That way you can rest more peacefully..."
"I……"
Liu Shiba opened her mouth with a red face and chatted with each other for a long time. Finally, the parting appearance flashed in her mind. She was still lying in Takeda Katsuyori's castle, as peaceful as a vegetative state...
Parting, I must be waiting for Liu Shiba...
"For the time being, no one is needed to serve me!"
Liu Shiba spoke righteously and rejected the "good intention" of Bachang Xinfang!
"Everyone! The battle is about to begin. Make sure you have enough physical strength."
After refusing, Liu Shiba did not forget to add a sentence for all his retainers to listen to.
……………………
"Bang!"
Liu Shiba was explaining some common sense questions to the Takeda family retainers, when a sound like a bubble bursting came from behind.
"Where is Lord Shingen? There is something important to report at the Mino border!"
A magnetic voice that sounded like a man's magic voice floated out.
Liu Shiba turned around and stared at this man, who seemed to have popped out of a dream. This guy had a good voice and was a rare heartthrob, but it was a pity that he couldn't see his face!
The man turned out to be a mysterious masked ninja.
"Who is this?" Liu Shiba looked at the Xinfang in the racecourse.
"This is Lord Shingen's royal ninja leader, Yagyu Sogan."
Takeda Nobushige finally came in handy at this time and intervened.
In reality, Takeda Nobushige didn't actually have any great abilities. Perhaps, Shingen's dazzling light covered up some of Takeda Nobushige's rare shining points.
As for Nobuhiro's greatest ability, Liu Shiba had just learned that he was the famous Shingen Kage warrior in history.
Shadow Warrior, commonly known as: Substitute!
This substitute, Takeda Nobushige, happened to know some ninjas or messengers who had direct contact with Shingen, such as the famous head of the Yagyu family in front of him.
Soen Yagyu was a legendary swordsman who was highly respected even in later generations of Japan, and he was also the sole heir to the Yin-ryu swordsmanship.
A sword master turned out to be Takeda Shingen's full-time ninja, which surprised Liu Shiba.
So, the news he brought must be very important!
