Chapter 1204: Sheng Lai leads the troops, Fenglin Volcano
Liu Shiba laughed, stood up slowly, and said solemnly:
"In order to adapt to the current war situation, I have ordered that Nobaba-sama, Baba, be the general of the entire army, and Tomson, the first rank, will be the chief military advisor."
Baba Nobufang looked at the old driver with joy, stood up at the same time and promised:
"ha!"
"The general has eight subordinate generals, and each two generals are responsible for one branch of the military."
Liu Shiba then ordered and added:
"The ashigaru generals, Masayuki Sanada, and the two dogs Honda! Two of them are deputy generals, commanding eight hundred ashigaru.
Artillery Corps Attendant General, Sanada Yukimura, and Tomson Ippin! Among them, Tomson Ippin temporarily acts as deputy general and leads 200 artillery troops. In this battle, Yukimura must learn more about the operation and modification techniques of artillery from Tomson Ippin.
The archers will be the generals Aika Toyoda and Katsuyori Takeda! Among them, Aika is the deputy general and is in charge of three hundred archers.
The general of the Chibei Cavalry is Yamamoto Tenfang, Nizi Jingjiu! Nizi Jingjiu and his mother-in-laws join the Chibei Cavalry as deputy generals, and the two of them command three hundred Chibei Cavalry."
Eight people including Masayuki Sanada, Li Ergou, Yukimura Sanada, Laoshi, Cuihua, Katsuyori Takeda, Meng Tianfang, and Nizi stood up again and shouted in unison:
"ha!"
Liu Shiba looked at Takeda Katsuyori and suddenly asked:
"I have decided to leave this battle to you, Commander Katsuyori. How is the morale of the entire army now after having a hearty meal late at night?"
Takeda Katsuyori seemed to have emerged from the shadow of being deprived of power, laughing and responded:
"My lord! The whole army can't sleep at night after a good meal. They are full of energy but want to fight. Even if they become dead ghosts, it's enough."
"good!"
Liu Shiba stood up and laughed:
"For the specific battle, the veteran general of Baba will take a short break this time and leave it to Katsuyori to arrange it, because you are more familiar with the fighting terrain here than many people."
Takeda Katsuyori stood up, looked at Baba Nobuka, and said respectfully:
"Nobufusa-sama, Katsuyori has been disrespectful this time and has temporarily assumed the duties of the general."
Baba Nobuka nodded and smiled:
"My old master's vision is not wrong in the first place! Just go ahead and do it."
Takeda Katsuyori turned to look at Liu Shiba...
"Um!"
Liu Shiba nodded carefully.
"ha!"
Everyone, except Liu Shiba and Ba Chang Xinfang, stood up solemnly and roared in agreement.
……………………
"Katsuyori! I suggest you communicate with military advisor Tang Chen Yipin first to see the rate of fire and power of the artillery, as well as a new thing called explosive pack..."
Liu Shiba thought about it for a while, and finally just added one sentence.
Takeda Katsuyori turned around in surprise and promised:
"Ha! I must consult the military advisor for advice within half an hour of repair."
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang..."
"boom!"
"Boom!"
In the quiet and dark woods, there was suddenly a burst of gunfire and a roar that shook the mountains...
The retainers and generals who were preparing for war, and the 1,600 elite Takeda soldiers, all looked at the dark forest in fear...
A few minutes later, Katsuyori Takeda, who was swaying as he walked with a dull look, and the old driver with an indifferent face walked out of the woods one after another...
"Sigh!"
"Yoshi..."
Takeda Katsuyori muttered and didn’t know what he was talking about!
Takeda Katsuyori walked to a group of confused old retainers of the Takeda family, slowly stood up straight, and shouted:
"The whole army obeys the order."
Katsuyori's eyes were full of confidence. He took out an exquisite folding fan from his waist majestically and shouted an order:
"There are still two hours before dawn, so the entire army is taking a final rest for half an hour and throwing away all unnecessary baggage and burdens.
Afterwards, the whole army took advantage of the darkness and quickly defeated the two thousand ashigaru of the two rebellious retainers, Anayayama Nobu-kun and Yamamoto Tetsui...
It is as fast as the wind, as quiet as the forest, as aggressive as fire, and as motionless as the mountain, making the Takeda family's emblem fly over the Kyoto Castle..."
The important ministers and generals of the Takeda family were at a loss, secretly thinking that this guy was crazy...
