"Katsuyori! As the saying goes, you don't have to trust the people you trust. If you do it boldly, my personal guards and subordinates will also obey your orders and fully support your strategic intentions."
Liu Shiba stared at Takeda Katsuyori, the famous scapegoat in the world of later generations, and whispered.
"ha!"
When Takeda Katsuyori heard this, his whole body trembled slightly, and a very real feeling of gratitude appeared on his face.
Because everything Liu Shiba did and everything he said in front of the ministers gave him too much face, which undoubtedly greatly enhanced Katsuyori's status in the Takeda family.
Talking about the past, if these old and important officials of the family didn't see Shingen's face as a priority, how could they have obeyed the orders and made him the master?
Maybe, you wouldn’t even pee in Katsuyori’s direction, right?
What Liu Shiba has done cannot make him cry without gratitude!
It feels so good to be trusted!
This kind of unconditional trust gave Takeda Katsuyori a sudden urge to die for his confidant!
"Whoosh!"
Katsurai immediately got off his horse and knelt down in front of Liu Shiba's horse. He respectfully took off his helmet and placed it by his legs. Then he prostrated on the ground like he was pushing up a mountain of gold and a jade pillar. He respectfully expressed a series of oaths:
"I, Takeda Katsuyori! I am the eldest son of Duke Shingen. I am trusted by the family governor and honored with the post of general. However, I feel deeply ashamed in my heart, and I have a deep understanding and regret for my previous reckless behavior.
Here, Katsuyori swears to Amaterasu that he will be loyal to the Takeda family, loyal to the owner Takeda Shiba, and loyal to the oath he made today..."
The important officials of the Takeda family, including Baba Nobuka, Ichiryu Noburyu, Amari Kotaishi, Sanada and his son, etc., couldn't help but look horrified when they saw Katsuyori's solemn oath...
Katsuyori's stubbornness, arrogance, and arrogance were all obvious to everyone, so when Shingen appointed him as the family governor, everyone was very resistant.
But at this moment, the extraordinary vision expressed by Katsurai surprised everyone and touched their hearts...
"Okay! On behalf of the Takeda family, I accept Takeda Katsuyori's loyalty and oath. Get up quickly and prepare for mobilization and layout before the war."
Liu Shiba reached out and helped Katsuyori up.
"Mobilization before war?"
Takeda Katsuyori was stunned. He originally planned to hug the big rabbit, do it once and run back to his hometown.
However, Liu Shiba seems to have a different definition?
Will the war continue?
And it’s a high-intensity combat method, right?
Takeda Katsuyori narrowed his eyes and solemnly said:
"ha!"
However, Katsuyori did not pretend to understand, but added a humble way of asking for advice:
"My lord, I must have a strategy in mind. I wonder if you can give me some guidance?"
Liu Shiba smiled slightly, took Katsuyori's hand, suddenly pointed at the burning Noda Castle, turned to Sanada Masayuki and smiled:
"A landscape of thousands of heads piled up in this place."
Sanada Masayuki and his son Sanada Yukimura hurriedly dismounted from their horses and squinted, looking puzzled...
"Look, Noda Castle is actually not alone! There are two hills on the left and right. The terrain is dangerous at first glance, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack!"
Liu Shiba put his hands behind his back and explained to the five people behind him: Katsuyori, Baba Nobufusa, Ichito Noburyu, Sanada and his son.
"I know that the hill to the northeast of Noda Castle is called Mulberry Deep, and the southwest hill is called Ryuzhiyuan. When my old lord captured Noda Castle, he suffered heavy losses here and even lost his troops."
A letter dragon added seriously.
Liu Shiba nodded, suddenly with a fierce look on his face, gritted his teeth and said:
"Before Noda Castle was destroyed, there must have been a messenger sent to Tokugawa Ieyasu. If the prediction was correct, he would have urged his troops to turn back and should be here soon.
Katsuyori, you can bury an abyss of death between the two abyss. Pile these thousands of people in the middle of the two abyss, divide the artillery team into two teams, and defend each one on the mountain..."
Katsurai was stunned and said:
"There are only 200 artillery pieces and a team of only 100 people. Is this possible?"
"Believe me, it can be done!"
Liu Shiba said with certainty.
"The Tokugawa Allied Forces have returned to the main force. There are 12,000 of them, and there are heavy troops on the side! My lord plans to use 200 artillery batteries to lure the heavy troops. When they are tired, in the dark of the night, use the red cavalry to make a decisive attack on Ieyasu's main formation?"
