Chapter five hundred and sixty-one homesick

But what Emperor Nishio didn't expect was that Princess Hongyin would lose so quickly. In just ten days, he threw Edo to the people of the Oda family. Nobuo Oda drove his troops into Edo and massacred Tokugawa Ieyasu's relatives and royal members. Only a small number of people who knew martial arts escaped from the city by chance. Princess Hongyin, Wanda Motoyoshi, is one of them. What's even more strange is that there is no movement in the Toyotomi family until its current location.

"Princess Hongyin was defeated. Nobuo Oda entered Edo, killing the shogunate and royal family members, robbing merchants, occupying the national treasury, causing dissatisfaction among all Daimyo in the world. Please ask the prince to be fair and send troops to Edo to drive Nobuo Oda from there." The hope that Emperor Nishio had just raised was ruthlessly shattered by Nobuo Oda and could not swallow his breath.

"I didn't expect that Oda Nobuo's speed would be so fast. I occupied Edo in just a few days, which was unexpected. However, Nishio-kun didn't need to be too anxious. Princess Hongyin's martial arts skills would definitely escape this disaster. I have now thought of a good way to defeat Tokugawa Hidetaki."

Emperor Nishio said: "I heard that the Ashikaga family has arrived in Edo, and Ma will fight with the Oda family. Our actions must be fast, otherwise the people in Edo will suffer." Yi Tusheng sneered in his heart. If I were asked to arrive earlier, the people would suffer even more!

"What method does the prince want to use to deal with Tokugawa Hidetachi? We have not sent troops these days. Tokugawa Hidetachi has got the opportunity to cultivate and rest, and he has almost recovered his strength." Shang Kexi said.

Yi Tusheng said, "Let's go to Takeuchi Tatsuru and Chiyoko to find them first." Everyone was not sure, so only Qi Bingzhong knew something and immediately went out to find them.

"Chioniko, how have you done what I told you two? And have you spread the news that Nishio-kun asked you to spread?"

Chiyoko said, "Your Majesty, we have done what the prince ordered. Now at least 40,000 people can sing folk songs from the Edo generation, but the song is very monotonous and only knows one." Yi Tusheng thought to himself, it's okay to have one song, after all, it's a foreign song, and time is so tight that it's really not easy to learn it for tens of thousands of people. Then he looked at Emperor Nishio.

Emperor Nishio said: "I have gone for a walk as the prince's order. At present, rumors are everywhere in Tokugawa Hidetaka's army, and there may be any trouble at any time." Yi Tusuo said: "Very good. Let your people walk there, and keep walking for a moment. Chiyoko let all the 40,000 people who can sing together. I will keep it useful."

Everyone was a little confused about Yi Tusheng's meaning, Yi Tusheng suddenly said, "Geng Zhongming obeyed the order! Order you to launch an attack on Tokugawa Hidetachi's men tomorrow morning, from morning to night, be sure to kill him in piles of bodies, blood flowing, bringing the terrifying atmosphere to every corner."

Geng Zhongming hurriedly said that the soldiers had just had dinner the next morning, and he brought 50,000 troops out of the gate to the camp of Tokugawa Hidetaka to fight. Although Tokugawa Hidetaka and Akichi Komayama joined forces to deal with Yi Tusheng, it was just a temporary solution. The two sides did not form an alliance, and Akichi Komayama would never allow Tokugawa Hidetaka to enter the city. This would take a long time to delay. Tokugawa Hidetaka could only camp outside the city.

Geng Zhongming brought 50,000 troops to the vicinity of Tokugawa Hidetaka's camp and first buried the cannons, and then sent Qi Yingbiao to the gate of the camp to fight and persuade him to surrender. Tokugawa Hidetaka of course refused to surrender. He scolded Geng Zhongming through the camp and then sent Akatsumatsu Eight Dynasties to fight with Qi Yingbiao. After some battle, Akatsumatsu Eight Dynasties lost to Qi Yingbiao and fled back to the camp.

Geng Zhongming took this opportunity to beat the war drums, and tens of thousands of cannons were fired, blowing the first half of Tokugawa Hidetaka's camp upside down. Tokugawa Hidetaka had to retreat with his army. Geng Zhongming had no order to pursue, so he returned to the camp with his army in the evening.

As soon as he returned to the camp, Geng Zhongming asked Yi Tusheng to take advantage of the victory, hoping that Yi Tusheng would leave the opportunity to work in this place to himself. But Yi Tusheng shook his head gently and said, "It's not the time yet. You should gather your own troops and horses first, and I will make a decision at any time. Sun Degong, Zhao Rujiao, Lu Xiangsheng, and Zhuangsheng, you four will also gather your troops and horses and be on time at any time. I will make arrangements."

Yi Tusheng's arrangement was mysterious and mysterious. All the generals didn't know what to do.

After midnight, Qi Bingzhong brought 40,000 singing soldiers to the vicinity of Tokugawa Hidechuk's camp. During the day, Yi Tusheng specially ordered Chan to build 5,000 horns to be used as loudspeakers. This thing was very easy to do, so it was enough to roll it into a tube with white iron sheets. The sound made was much louder than the sound that had not been processed. Chan once again admired Yi Tusheng.

That night, all the Japanese soldiers were sleeping soundly. A battle during the day had exhausted them. They were not only exhausted but also lingering fear. In order to relieve this feeling of life being worse than death, they could only close their eyes and send themselves to sleep, hoping to meet their relatives in their dreams and enjoy a moment of tranquility.

But at this moment, the songs were filled with tears and complaints, all of which were Japanese folk songs, some were lullabies about men and women's love, some were songs to coax children, and some were songs sung during festivals. Anyway, every song can arouse people's homesickness.

When Tokugawa Hidetachi woke up from his sleep, it was already early in the morning. He heard songs in his ears. At first, he thought the soldiers in the military camp could not sleep and hum a song, but later he felt something was wrong, because he felt that there were many crying and lamenting sounds hidden behind the song, and even near his commander's tent was filled with such a dead and silence. He immediately became alert.

"Baga, don't sing anymore, don't sing anymore, Baga, whose singing is this? This is disturbing the morale of the army. Come and arrest me all the singing people." Tokugawa Hidetachi hurriedly put on his clothes and walked out. Under the moonlight, the door of his handsome tent was empty, and there was not even a person standing guard.

A cold wind blew, and Tokugawa Hidetachi fought a cold war and searched everywhere. He saw the fire was dim, the figures were sparse, and the cold was deserted. Tokugawa Hidetachi fought a cold war suddenly and shouted loudly: "Where are people, where are they? Come here quickly, I have an order."

After shouting twice in a row, he saw Yamana Momoko and Ouchi Yoshiyama Hosokawa Tatsuo and his men came over from three directions. Yamana Momoko said, "The general is not good. The soldiers started to run away desperately last night. It was too late when we found out. Even those Daming began to escape with their men. At this time, there were very few people left. Please call the Daming to meet immediately to save the situation."

Tokugawa Hidetachi said in surprise: "Escape? Wherever they can go, the Shanyin and Kyushu areas were occupied by the Ming army, where can they go!" Yamaa Yuko sighed: "In order to save his life and return to his hometown that he had been thinking about day and night, they probably surrendered to the Ming army." @ya
