Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Seventh

The city is born under the city.

Uesugi Army Honjin.

Naoe Keizuna was holding a feather fan and looked at the battlefield where Yamashita had just fought.

The battlefield was on a river beach by the Shintogawa River. The Uesugi Army had just repelled the two standing troops of the Takeda Army and infiltrated the castle city with several times the superior force.

However, even though the Uesugi Army repelled the Takeda Army's support to the city, it took a lot of effort and suffered a lot from the hard fight.

Keizuna Naoe pondered for a while, turned around and said to the left and right: "I heard that Shima Katsumou is the first general under Li Xiao's command to be accustomed to fighting. When I saw it today, it really deserves its reputation. Everyone, even if we have an advantage in military strength, we still have the advantage. Don't underestimate the enemy, understand?"

The generals on the left and right heard what Naoe Keizuna said, and they all agreed.

At this moment, a muddy messenger hurried up the mountain.

When he came to Jinggang Naojiang, he lowered the handle of the gun and said loudly: "Report to the lord, our army exiled rafts in the upper reaches of the Shentong River, and successfully burned all the wells of Chengshengcheng. Now the water source in the city Has been cut off."

Hearing this report, the generals of the Uesugi family all showed joy, Naoe Jingzuna slowly shook the feather fan, looked at the Chengshengcheng on the side, and said in a deep voice: "Very well, the water source will be cut off, and the military will be làn, so, Chengshengcheng Conquered."

The other Takeda Army Honjin.

Masaru Shima had heard the news of the failure of the assault on Chengshengcheng, but he didn't care too much. For him, this attack was just a move to test the strength of Uesugi army.

"The Uesugi Army is very tough, and Naoe Jingzuna is a famous and cautious general. In my opinion, I am afraid that it is not easy to penetrate the Uesugi Army and enter the city."

The speaker was a young general in a fiery red dress.

The opponent was the general that Masanobu Kosaka sent to Hida to assist Li Xiao, Prosperity Obat.

Masamori Obata was a powerful general of the Takeda family, and the son of Komori Obata, one of the five officials of Koyo.

The original name of Kohata Torori was Ohata Torori, who later inherited the name of Koshu Koba, Koshu Koba, and Koba Yumi's Kamesu Koba are also close branches.

In the fourth year of Yonglu, before the battle between Chuanzhong Island, Kobata Tosunori died of illness in Haijin Castle, and Obataka Masamori succeeded his father's deputy general and assisted Takasaka Masanobu to guard Haijin Castle.

After Takeda Shingen established the Kita Shinano Corps, Obata Masao also became a lieutenant of the Legion. This time, Takasaka believed in the order of Takeda Shingen to assist the Hida Vietnamese Army Corps in the struggle, and sent Obat Masamori to lead a thousand troops into Hida.

Ohata's consistent combat style is very tough and fierce. He has the tendency to bend rather than bend, and he has the style of his father. Therefore, he judges Naoe Keizuna's military power in this way, which is also a very high judgment.

In fact, the Northern Shinano Army has many frictions with Echigo, and the two sides have small-scale wars from time to time, so the strength of the Northern Shinano Army and the Echigo Army is clear.

Prosperity Oba continued: "Our army is inferior to the Uesugi army. Taking the initiative to attack is a kind of pressure on our side, so I ask Master Shima to be cautious."

Shima Katsumou glanced at Oaba prosperously, but did not speak.

At this time, the horse-riding general Tsuchiya Masahiro said with a sullen face, and said: "I have long heard of the name of Lord Obata for being brave and good at war, but today I saw it and I was disappointed. Now Chengshengcheng is besieged by the Uesugi army, and our army is about to break the siege. Enter, if we dare not step forward to a decisive battle with the enemy, why should we come here?"

Prosperity Obata is also young and energetic. Hearing Tsuchiya's words, he immediately became angry and said: "Tsuchiya-sama, I am not afraid of death, but I don't want to bear the death of dishonor. My soldiers will not follow such stupidity. The generals killed him. So please be careful."

"Who do you think is the stupid general?" Tsuchiya Masahiro asked indignantly.

Xiaoba prosperously hummed disdainfully. Seeing the two men's swords drawn, the generals persuaded them to go away.

At this moment, Wu Jian Bantou hurried up the hillside and reported to Shima Katsumeng: "My lord, according to the captured Echigo Army's foot news, the water source in Chengshengcheng has been cut off."

"what?"

The generals of the Takeda family moved upon hearing this.

Dao Shengmeng was the first to ask: "Is this news reliable?"

On the side, Xiaoba said prosperously: "Master Shima thinks very much. Keizuna Naoe is as cunning as a fox. It is very likely that the other party has released false news, yò made us attack."

"Huh, if it weren't for false news, would we have missed the opportunity and could only watch the city fall?" Tsuchiya Masuji retorted immediately.

Wu Jian Fantou said: "Returning to the adults, your personal judgment is not false, so please make your decision early."

Shima Sheng shook his head fiercely, and said: "Xiaoba Changsheng is justified. With our strength, it is difficult to penetrate the Shanjun's defense. If we are to attack forcibly, it will be difficult to win even if we lose money. On the contrary, we may fall into full force. The situation where the army is destroyed."

Tsuchiya Masahiro heard this loudly and said: "Master Island, you must never die without saving. I am willing to lead a five-hundred horse riding team to rush into the battle first. In any case, I must rescue the two adults of the Muxia Racecourse."

Seeing the movement of Tsuchiya Masahiro, the generals all thought of the 1,500 soldiers trapped in the wood under the city.

Hearing that the water source is cut off, the defenders must be anxious.

As reinforcements, they flinched and dared not dare to handle the enemy, which is simply a shame as a samurai.

As a result, the samurai on the scene heard the words of Tsuchiya Masahiro and appealed to Shima Katsushige. Even the Uchishima Kato Uchijima, who has always been cautious on defense, also took the initiative to attack.

Shima Katsumi was also caught in a dilemma at this moment. If he took the initiative to fight, the four thousand Takeda army against the city's one thousand Uesugi army would definitely have a slim chance of winning, not to mention that the opponent was a famous general like Naoe Keizuna.

If the battle conditions are unfavorable, it is very likely that this support army will be picked up by all.

And if he gave up the decisive battle, he would watch Koichiro Kinoshita's 15,000 army collapse, the castle fell, and the Takeda family completely cut off their contact with the family in Etchu.

As for the consequences of this matter, Shingen Takeda would definitely be very angry because of the loss of Yuezhong and blame Li Xiao.

In this regard, Dao Shengmeng had no other way to go besides cutting his belly to apologize to Li Xiao.

Shima Katsumeng glanced at the Uesugi Army Formation under the castle ~lightnovelpub.net~ surrounded by airtight. His expression was dignified. At this moment, he was also a little difficult to make this decision.

Dao Shengmeng thought about it for a while, and suddenly he gritted his teeth and gave the order.

At this time, a man came to report, saying: "Master Island, the lord has arrived, and ordered everyone to come to meet him."

"Master?" Dao Shengmeng was overjoyed when he heard the words, thinking that since Li Xiao is here, he must have a plan to decide this matter.

Dao Shengmeng immediately asked, "Where is the lord now? Does he know where our army is right now?"

The samurai said in a loud voice: "The lord is on the hill ahead. He has been watching the formation for a long time. He said he would invite Master Island to discuss and break the plan of the Uesugi Army?"

"What? The lord already has a solution." Dao Sheng Meng was very surprised when he heard this, but it was impossible to think of Li Xiao's ability.

He had already seen it in Shirane Mountain, in Yanju Castle.

However, at this moment, Dao Shengmeng also had a bit of distraction towards Li Xiao. . ..
