Chapter 255
In Tennoji Temple, Akechi Mitsuhide finally had the time to take off the too stuffy visor and replace it with a face mask that is easier to breathe.
Ishiyama Honganji's ability to respond to the Oda Army's offensive was not beyond Akechi Mitsuhide's expectations—in other words, when Harada Naomasa laid out the battle line, they already understood that this was not a surprise attack, but a Head-to-head combat.Ishiyama Honganji will suddenly turn against Oda. Naturally, it is not that Saburo's words and deeds have touched their sensitive nerves, but that they have other reliance that can make them confront Oda.Originally, the strength of Ishiyama Honganji Temple could be equal to that of many daimyos, but because the two consecutive massacres by the Oda family were too crazy, Ishiyama Honganji Temple, which was a little weaker, chose to reconcile.
This covenant is destined to be torn up, it's just a matter of time.Only half a year later, Ishiyama Honganji suddenly announced its confrontation with Oda, and the time was too tight—it would not be a weak daimyo who could make up for the little confidence that Ishiyama Honganji lacked, but Uesugi Kenshin He is an upright person, and he did not send a letter to the Oda family that the alliance was broken, which proves that Uesugi Oda's alliance still exists.Looking at Mitsuhide Akechi's attack on Tanba, the indirect expression of his intention to march to the west, and the impact of the Kodera family who previously used Takataka Kuroda as a lobbyist to vote for Oda, it was enough for him to judge whether it was the one who supported Ishiyama Honganji The others are the Maori family.
The Maori water army is well-known, and it has been concluded that there is Maori's handwriting in it. The first thing the Oda family will adopt is naturally the tactic of taking down the fortress along the coast of Honganji Temple.However, the sect master of Honganji Temple was able to reach a military alliance with Maori, and naturally he could not fail to see this—the tactics Harada Naomasa arranged were frontal confrontation tactics in which both sides knew each other's marching route and purpose.
In terms of being brave and good at fighting, the ashigaru of the Oda family are not inferior to the sergeants under the command of any daimyo.Moreover, although Saburo's side could not mobilize manpower and troops for a while, there would inevitably be enough troops to come to Settsu to fight Honganji in the future.There was nothing wrong with Harada Naomasa's tactics, but no one thought that he would die in such an unexpected way.No matter how many plans and arrangements they made before, after the death of the chief general, they will inevitably come to naught.
The Oda army who came to fight Honganji was defeated because of this.
... Rationally knowing that swords have no eyes on the battlefield, it is impossible not to encounter danger one day, but Akechi Mitsuhide still sighed secretly for Harada Naomasa's wonderful luck.
Things have developed like this, and he will not be upset by the illusory reasons for failure.Although he withdrew his troops in time and kept most of the troops under his command, the troops he had were after all divided.He has not received any information about the specific number of soldiers at Ishiyama Honganji Temple, but he chose Tennoji Temple as a position due to the situation, and was soon surrounded by Honganji's troops, and it was difficult to get out-from this point of view, the original wish There are at least ten thousand soldiers and horses in the temple.
This was a quantity that Akechi Mitsuhide's troops could hardly match and resist.
Because the number of the sword men is really too large in the time-traveling army, they have long since given up hope for a fair hand-to-hand combat from the very beginning.Although Mitsuhide Akechi had faced this kind of disadvantage on the battlefield when Saburo faced the siege before, it was the first time he faced an enemy who had an overwhelming number advantage and was fearless to die.
It is a pity that there is no comparison between the time-traveling army faced by the sword man and the monk soldiers faced by Mitsuhide Akechi, from IQ to individual combat power.Akechi Mitsuhide naturally couldn't learn from them (in fact, Akechi Mitsuhide didn't know much about the few battles he fought against the sword men), so he could only rely on his own brain power to find a way out in this predicament.
Tianwang Temple was not originally a place with strong walls and good for defense.He seized this place in time as a stronghold, but Akechi Mitsuhide may not be more familiar with it than the monks at the Honganji Temple outside.And the food stored in Tianwang Temple may not be able to last them for a long time.
He has no choice.Sooner or later, Tennoji Temple will be breached by these monks. The only thing Mitsuhide Akechi can do is to pass the news to Saburo as soon as possible, and prevent himself from dying before the rescue of the Oda family arrives.
Akechi Mitsuhide has no other way to deal with it except to send his ashigaru to block all the gates of Tennoji and defend them from the side.
The men with swords and swords had no intention of interfering with his actions at this time. They only went to confirm the retreat of the wild warriors first, and then guarded around the house, looking like they were ready for battle.
Men with Swords...
Thinking of these Token Fusangshin's unexpected choice to follow his actions these days, and the tacit statement of "not getting Saburo's approval" in the morning, Akechi Mitsuhide's expression moved slightly.
From the very beginning, these monsters transformed into swords kept vigilance and alienation from him—Mitsuhide Akechi knew clearly that this was because the upcoming "Honnoji Change" had misunderstood them.This kind of indifference towards Akechi Mitsuhide has continued from the beginning to the present, and it still hasn't slowed down, and even if the sword man who holds this passive hostility will not do anything radical to him, it is impossible Will abandon Saburo and choose him to serve.
Even though he is still wary of Token Men and the "Government of Time" who does not know where, Akechi Mitsuhide still admits that these sword men who may have different intentions are really doing their best for Saburo at present.
It is obviously impossible for such a swordsman to abandon his former master overnight and follow the "Akechi Mitsuhide" they have alienated. Akechi Mitsuhide also thinks that he does not have such a great personality charm.Then Daojian Fusangshen would make such a move, so naturally they had to find the reason from themselves.
...In the morning, when Akechi Mitsuhide said "I thought this trip would not go well", the swordsmen didn't refute it.
That is to say, the death of Harada Naomasa and the embarrassment of Akechi Mitsuhide being besieged at Tennoji Temple are all the "future" foreseen by these swordsmen earlier!
Tsurumaru Kuninaga once said that before the change of Honnoji Temple, he would work hard for Saburo's interests-but sit back and watch this kind of thing happen, is it also for Saburo's benefit?
With Akechi Mitsuhide's excellent political literacy, he would never believe such words.No, it's better to say that he realized that Harada Naomasa's death was definitely not a good thing for the Oda family, and he was shocked to realize that the so-called "protecting the interests of Saburo" by the swordsmen was just a pure excuse.
And if he had foreseen this kind of thing and wanted to put Mitsuhide Akechi to death, he would not need so many men with swords and even the wild samurai led by them to appear.Rather than wanting Akechi Mitsuhide to die, it is better to understand the crisis that Akechi Mitsuhide will encounter, so he is ready to deal with it——However, there is no need for a swordsman who "protects Saburo's interests" and has a bad feeling for Akechi Mitsuhide, and Why protect Akechi Mitsuhide's safety!
Right now, Akechi Mitsuhide's troops don't even know how long they can hold on to defend the city.He naturally considered the combat power that the men of swords and swords could exert in his predicament, but he inevitably thought of the problem that he had already understood in the morning but was unable to think deeply due to the timing problem.
His face darkened even more.
The face scarf perfectly covered his gloomy and depressed expression, and the only exposed eyes that were very similar to Saburo seemed to be shining coldly, bringing an oppressive force that was different from the sword, but similar to the men with swords in wartime.
Akechi Mitsuhide walked out of the room quickly.
Except for a small number of swordsmen who assigned tasks to the wild samurai and checked the surroundings of the temple in a "drill state", the rest of the swordsmen stood calmly in various suitable places, relying on the fact that no one except Mitsuhide Akechi could see them. Observation is not a position that ordinary people can gain a foothold in.The young man wearing a face scarf cast his eyes on Imken who was sitting on a thin branch, swinging a pair of white feet covered with bright red clogs, and asked calmly.
"Will the time retrograde army attack here?"
On Imamami's immature face, there was an obvious expression of surprise that would only come after being hit, and he replied hesitantly: "Yes! But not now—"
But Akechi Mitsuhide did not continue to ask for the specific time, but just stood there quietly and meditated.
Daojian Fusangshen has always followed Saburo closely, but as far as he knows, the number of times the Daojian man has appeared in battle is only a few times.Although in Gifu and in Azuchi, Token Fusangshen would regularly kill the nearby time-traveling army, but those existences without self-awareness are obviously not at the same level as the time-traveling army involved in historical nodes.Akechi Mitsuhide is not yet clear about the strangeness of the timing of the men with swords encountering powerful enemies, but it does not prevent him from understanding that the time retrograde army also has advantages and disadvantages-for him, men with swords and swords have timing The act of going out from Gifu to kill the enemy is just to accumulate experience when facing a strong enemy (this is also the case).
The real "battle" of the men with swords starts from the time when Jinzaki was the empress, followed by the assassination of Qianguolai by ninjas, the battle of Anegawa, the battle of Usayama Castle, the battle of Mikatahara, the battle of Kitanosho Castle, and the battle of Nagashino battle.Although Saburo's original purpose was to use the Touken Men to deal with the Time Traveling Army, but the Sword Men's implementation of Saburo's meaning was too thorough, and he almost had no intention of fighting except when the Time Traveling Army appeared.
And in the battles they had already fought, Akechi Mitsuhide mostly didn't know the specific situation.But even so, he was able to detect that most of the sword man's actions had clear goals, except for the time-traveling army.
No, it should be said that the goals of the sword men and the time retrograde army are exactly the same, but the goals are opposite.And among the goals that can be confirmed by him, there is also a high degree of overlap.
Kanazaki's empress targets are "Akechi Mitsuhide", "Hashiba Hideyoshi" and "Oda Nobunaga"."Oda Nobunaga" was responsible for the assassination of Chigusa Pass, and "Oda Nobunaga" and "Tokugawa Ieyasu" were involved in the Battle of Anegawa and the Battle of Nagashino.The battle of Mikatahara was "Tokugawa Ieyasu", and the battle of Kitanosho Castle was "Akechi Mitsuhide".
Whether it's the "Army of Retrograde Time" or "Sword Fusangshen", they have maintained a high degree of concentration on these few people.The only Usa Yamashiro battle where these few people were not personally involved in the scene, Mori Kasei failed to save his life even under the premise of the presence of a swordsman - just like Harada Naomasa this time.
With the skill of a man with a sword, it is absolutely impossible to save the life of an ordinary person.
Akechi Mitsuhide was so sure, the words Saburo once said flashed in his mind unexpectedly.
[Oda Nobunaga will definitely win the world. 】
[Tokugawa Ieyasu was an important figure in the Edo period. 】
[Hideyoshi is a celebrity in history. 】
As Saburo said...these three people have left their footprints in history!He even made a deed that can be widely recorded—otherwise, how could Saburo be so sure!
Akechi Mitsuhide trusted Saburo's words more than the sword man's words.
He frowned slightly, and still crossed out his name from the several "targets" he had previously thought of - although he didn't know where Sanlang knew these things, but since Sanlang didn't know his name What kind of reaction, think about his "Akechi Mitsuhide" is also unknown in history.When Kanazaki was the empress, he was probably affected because he was too close to Hashiba Hideyoshi, and when Kitanosho Castle was besieged by the Ichikui Army, Tsurumaru Kuninaga and Ichiichi Ichishin were willing to listen to his advice to help deal with the time-traveling army, probably It was also the reason why he happened to bring the sword man there.
In this way, Akechi Mitsuhide can be sure.
Whether it is a time-traveling army or a man with a sword.Their actions revolve around the three of "Oda Nobunaga", "Hashiba Hideyoshi" and "Tokugawa Ieyasu"!
The purpose of the sword men is to maintain history—could it be because their ability to "predict the future" is not only able to see things a year or two later, but is so far away that they can call what is happening now "history" ", that's why you call your actions "maintaining history"
...Thinking about it carefully, I can't find any loopholes.
What these men with swords and swords acted for was not Saburo's interests and life, but the so-called "history".
Akechi Mitsuhide's complexion was covered by the face scarf, no one could see what the change had become, only from his frowning eyebrows that became more and more tight.
He raised his eyes to look at Jinjian who was still ignorant and immature, and restrained himself from angering this innocent and innocent Fu Sangshen.
This time, the swordsmen came to Settsu with him uncharacteristically, and also entered Tennoji Temple at this time... It should not be for him, who has left no footprints in history.He has already sent a message to Saburo asking for help, and now he just waits for the arrival of reinforcements—since Jinjian said "not now", does it mean that when the reinforcements arrive, the time-traveling army will launch an attack?
It is impossible for Tokugawa Ieyasu to participate in this rescue operation. After all, he is not a retainer of the Oda family, but an ally of the Oda family.And if Saburo sent Hashiba Hideyoshi to rescue, the men with swords shouldn't have such a dignified expression.
Could it be that……
"Saburo—would he come to save me himself?"
As if thinking of something, Akechi Mitsuhide asked incredulously.
As before, the immature Touken Fusangshin showed a surprised expression that was right.
At the same time, Saburo in Azuchi received news of the defeat and the death of Harada Naomasa.
At this time, the specific location of Akechi Mitsuhide has not been conveyed to Saburo through spies, and what fell into the hands of the Oda family governor is only news from a while ago.But he hesitated for a moment before making a decisive decision.
"Zaozheng is dead—then Xiaoguang's side will feel bad too."
"Start preparing now, let's go right away."
Hahaha this is the second update for today!
Well, I barely counted as my double update today.
Thank you for your blessings to me! ! ! ! 23333333 Thank you so much! ! !
The tactical questions about Naomasa Harada in this chapter are still edited by me.
Today's Akechi Mitsuhide is still more than half right, and the key part is wrong 2333333 As the culprit of the Honnoji Change, you are very important, okay! !
But it was successfully deduced that Saburo came back, which is considered a wrong attack.
The time retrograde army is indeed getting more and more witty.Thinking back to them who could be easily deceived in the Sanfangyuan joint battle... Tsk tsk tsk, the past is so beautiful.
And I read "The Biography of Oda Nobunaga" written by Changsheng of the Red Army. Among the three thousand elite soldiers who wrote the letter, Hideyoshi Hashiba also followed, but I didn't write about him at all in the last chapter.
Thank you again for your blessings!Thank you so much! !
