Chapter 629 Differentiation
Chapter 629: Dividing
After Yama Nakakito left, Katsumoto Hosokawa turned his head and said to Ashikaga Yoshimasato: "God, please believe me, I did not let my people escape when they met the Ming army. I will definitely go back and find out carefully and punish these generals who escaped in the last battle."
Ashikaga Yoshimasa nodded and said, "Of course I believe in you, but the biggest problem now is that your troops actually fled when they saw the Ming army. For this...!"
"I believe that's not true!"
Hosokawa Katsumoto said confidently, "In the past two years, our soldiers have trained hard to compete with the Ming Dynasty's army. Now that the Ming Dynasty's army has come here, of course, to fight with them, how can we escape when we see the Ming Dynasty's army? So I think this is somewhat impossible, so please ask the general to ask me to go back and investigate carefully!"
"The investigation is of course not wrong, but are there some abnormal time now?"
Ashikaga Yoshimasa said slowly. Then he looked up and looked outside, saying, "Although this Yama Nakadashi is very brave and intends to resist the attack of the Ming army, do you think he can stop it? Even the elite cannot stop the attack of the Ming army. How can those new recruits who have been pieced together?"
Although he didn't understand what Ashikaga Yoshimasa was thinking, he said this, to a large extent, which was a suspicion of Yama Nakaki's ability. For Hosokawa Katsumoto, this was undoubtedly a very good news. He pretended to ponder for a moment, and then said: "I think it should not be possible. You must know that the combat effectiveness of the Ming Dynasty's army was very strong. The battle along the way was unstoppable, and no one could resist them at all. These new recruits had no combat effectiveness at all. The previous battle also reflected this point, 200,000 others and 250,000 of us, what was the result? Didn't they be defeated? Now the Ming Dynasty's army is heading straight in, and it will take a long time to fight here, so I think we should think about a solution now!"
"What solution?"
Ashikaga Yoshimasa immediately asked, what he was thinking about now was how to face the army of hundreds of thousands of troops in the Ming Dynasty.
"First of all, I think that the General should find a safe place!"
Hosokawa Katsumoto expressed his purpose.
“A safe place?”
Ashikaga Yoshimasaki repeated his words slightly, stood up, paced back and forth a few steps before asking, "What do you mean?"
Hosokawa Katsumoto stood up, leaned over, and said, "God General, Yamaine Daming doesn't need my assistance now. Relying on their troops, it is impossible to resist the attack of the Ming army. Although I have heavy troops, it is difficult to come to his territory privately. Even so, I cannot let you suffer any damage, so I wonder if you should move to my place first, it is really unsafe here."
Hosokawa Katsumoto's words were very tempting, and Ashikaga Yoshimasa couldn't help but think about it. To be honest, he is really worried about this issue now. The military power is basically in the hands of two daimyos. He has no military force at all. He only has tens of thousands of guards. This guard is just a piece of cake for the army of hundreds of thousands of troops in the Ming Dynasty. He can easily destroy it. Although Yama Nakaki Shifeng is determined to fight the Ming Dynasty's army to the end, this courage is worthy of reward, but it does not mean that you can definitely win the battle with the courage. Now it seems that without the help of foreign aid, it is indeed not easy for Yama Nakaki Shifeng to win this battle. Yama Nakaki Shifeng is about to die, and he has no need to die with him.
After pondering for a moment, Ashikaga Yoshimasa still hesitated a little and said, "This enemy is in front of you. If I go to your place, it will inevitably cause domestic turmoil. In this way, will it be even faster?"
After asking for payment, Ashikaga Yoshimasa still needs to consider this issue carefully.
Hosokawa Katsumoto nodded and said, "It's good that General thinks so much, but now it seems that this Yama Naka is completely at a disadvantage. He doesn't want my army to come and help him. You must know that we are a country. The so-called "lip and teeth are cold". If he is defeated, there will be no benefit to us. General, what should we do?"
Ashikaga Yoshimasato was also very troubled about this issue, and he secretly cursed Yama Nakata Katsuki assassinated as a fat man. He clearly had no snobbery, but he still had to hold on. What's the benefit of holding on? Isn't it a dead end?
Hosokawa Katsumoto was thinking in his heart how to convince Ashikaga Yoshimasa to agree to his army to enter Yamana Shifeng's territory openly. After pretending to think about it, he said: "It's better to do this. Your Excellency General, I will transfer my army to you. As for the external claim, it is to serve the king!"
"Self-responsible for the king?"
Ashikaga Yoshimasa couldn't help but be stunned.
"Not bad, it's just a king!"
Hosokawa Katsumoto said with a serious look: "The so-called king-salvation comes from the Ming Dynasty. Well, or it should be an era in their early days. It means that the king is in trouble. The generals below raise troops to protect the king. Now the Ming Dynasty's army is approaching step by step, and the general is also in danger. Yama Nakaki Shin-to has not enough troops to protect the general, so I personally lead the troops to protect the general! In this way, even if Yama Nakaki Shin-to is opposing, I have enough reasons and can also protect your safety! There is no need to attract other people's words!"
This was also heart-pounding to Ashikaga Yoshimasa. After a moment of silence, he asked: "I know your feelings very much. If this is the case, it is also a good way. Let's do this. I've given an order so that you can come here openly!"
Nowadays, Ashikaga Yoshimasa is also a typical person who wants to set up a archway. He is worried about the safety of his life and at the same time he is worried about leaving a trap. Now, Katsumoto Hosokawa, the method of serving the king, is really good.
"Then I, I'll make arrangements immediately!"
Hosokawa Katsumoto immediately said.
"etc!"
Ashikaga Yoshimasa immediately shouted.
Hosokawa Katsumoto asked::Your Excellency has any other instructions?"
Ashikaga Yoshimasaki was slightly silent, and then said: "It seems that Yama Nakaki Shinto really doesn't have the ability to lead troops. If you can repel the Ming Dynasty's attack, I think..., I hope you can understand what I mean!"
The so-called "can only understand, not express" but not express it. Of course, Hosokawa Katsumoto, who has been in the political arena for a long time, understood this very clearly and immediately said: "God of General, I understand what you mean, I will arrange it now!"
After saying that, he hurriedly left the general's mansion, and immediately divorced two letters. The first letter was sent back to his territory, asking them to bring troops immediately, and the other letter was sent to Jianglang.
Now, after rest, the Ming Dynasty's army is advancing rapidly, and there are countless small towns and other things that have been conquered along the way. However, this time Jianglang did not kill them all, because the Ming army had not arrived yet, and these people had already escaped empty. The remaining ones were only the old, weak, sick and disabled. Even if they were not killed, they would return to the Lord's arms themselves.
The Ming Dynasty today is like a world where no one is.
Two days later, Jiang Lang, who was patrolling the battlefield, suddenly received a report from a soldier, saying that someone asked to see him and was waiting in the camp.
Hearing this, Jiang Lang returned to the tent, and saw that in this tent, Kuyoko Panasonic was waiting there, so he stepped forward and said, "I didn't expect that you brought him, it was really a waste of greeting!"
Panasonic Kuyoko stood up quickly and said, "Your Excellency General is serious. This time I came here mainly to deliver a letter!"
After saying that, he carefully took out a letter from his arms and said, "This is my handwritten letter to the General by Daming."
"oh?"
Jiang Lang felt a little surprised, took the letter and looked carefully. In the letter, Katsumoto Hosokawa showed a praise for the bravery of the Ming army, and at the same time he did not forget to sigh that Jiang Lang was using his troops as a god. Then he made his own suggestions. In fact, his army is now planning to enter Yama Natsuki's territory, hoping that the Ming army will further strengthen its offensive and completely disintegrate Yama Natsuki's power, and then retreat according to the agreement when it encounters him!
Jianglang smiled faintly. Hosokawa Katsumoto thought too naively. He wanted to return it himself. How could the meat in his mouth still be spit out? There was no possibility at all.
After smiling slightly, Jiang Lang then put away the letter and said to the Panasonic Kuyoko: "You go back and tell you Daming, I have a sense of this, please don't worry too much. I know what to do. I don't want anyone to point fingers at me!"
