"It is rare to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom, and you will only love the flowers falling when you see them." Ouchi Mori looked up at the cherry blossom trees in the courtyard, and couldn't help but sang a poem.

The flowers on the treetops are broken, with sporadic petals floating in the sky, and only the ground is filled with withered cherry blossoms. When people see her withering, they can't help but suddenly remember that when they see her blooming, they seem to be just yesterday.

Under the cherry tree not far away, there were several samurai covered in armor. They all looked at Ouchi Sunami with their eyes wide open, looking at Ouchi Sunami with great anxiety. The samurai was obviously not like Ouchi Sunami, and they were in the mood to see the cherry blossoms.

Danai Sheng saw him in his heart, but he might not be calm, otherwise he would not subconsciously sing such a poem full of sorrow and regret.

The situation in front of him really made him feel very regretful, heartache, and in a dilemma.

In just one or two days, his strategy went bankrupt; the initial defense line was broken before it was fully established. When Ouchi Mori suddenly woke up, he seemed to be still sleepwalking.

The fatal gap is the valley on the southern foot of Bofu Mountain!

Previously, after confirming the Ming army's landing location, Ouchi Mori responded and adjusted immediately. He ordered the defenders of Shima County, the northwest peninsula to go south and set up defenses in Bofushannan; at the same time, he mobilized reinforcements from Yaya County to march south toward the southwest, and the target was still in Bofushannan. Ouchi Mori Mori was intended to block the passage as soon as possible.

It was logically enough, and the Ming army had just begun to land. Common sense speculated that the Ming army on the expedition had just arrived, and even where the Japanese army was and the specific terrain of the local area would not be able to figure out how to understand the deployment and intentions of the Japanese army?

However, things were very unexpected and things went against their wishes.

Seeing that today, Ouchi Mori received news that the Shima County garrison had been blocked, and his survival was unknown and he could not reach his destination according to the military order. This morning, a small group of cavalry of the Ming army moved to the east of Bofu Shandong and carried out blocking and harassing the reinforcements of Yaya County.

At this time, the main force of the Danei family was on the north of Bofu Mountain, along the coastal Xiashan Gate defense line. This morning, Danei Sheng sent someone to urgently orders to dispatch the second batch of reinforcements from the Xiashan Gate to the south to reinforce the southern junction of Bofu Mountain.

But these mobilizations may not necessarily work. Ouchi Moriki realized that the battlefield on the southern front might be lost.

The Ming army began to land, and only two or three days have passed since then, and the battlefield situation has changed dramatically. Such speed is simply unbelievable...

If it was just a first strategic step, even if you had to give up Hakata Port, Kawaya County, or even abandon the entire territory of the Matsushimatsu country, Ouchi Mori would not feel so sad.

The most serious thing now is that the north of Bofu Mountain and the Xiashanmen area gathered almost all the elite forces of the Da Nei family!

If the main Japanese army in Kasuya County immediately retreated to the Dazaifu in the south as planned according to the second step; then the Ouchi army in the Shishanmen area will face the enemy's siege and attack soon, and the misfortune of destruction will inevitably be eliminated. The foundation of the power that the Ouchi family has managed for many years will be completely destroyed day and night.

If the main force of the Japanese army in Kasuya County approaches the Ouchi army to the west, the battle will soon turn into a large-scale joint battle. More than 100,000 people on both sides are fighting in an open area, and Ouchi Moriji feels that his chance of winning is very low.

The choice is actually very simple: try to save the main force of the Da Nei Army or the main force of the entire Japanese army? Which one is bigger and smaller is clear at a glance. If Da Nei Sheng saw that it was not the governor of the Da Nei Family.

At this time, a warrior hurriedly walked into the door, bent down under the tree and said, "Report to the lord, the lord, please go and discuss matters immediately."

Ouchi Mori nodded, glared at his eyes, turned around with a decisive expression, and walked out the door.

Soon, Tao Jing, the lord of Kasuya County, chased after him and said in a deep voice in front of the horse that Ouchi Mori saw: "Why don't you give an order to call the Danai samurai from Bofu Mountain to ride a horse and leave the defense base?"

Tao Jing is very smart and must have understood the crisis at this time.

Ouchi Moriki scolded, "As soon as the warrior leaves, the North Bukuro Mountain defense will fall apart immediately, and the enemy will surge eastward from the seaside to pursue our main force."

On the road not far away, another samurai riding warrior came. When the warrior saw Ouchi Mori, he hurried forward and said, "There are more enemy cavalry on the east side of Bofu Mountain! Our second batch of reinforcements also encountered an attack."

Ouchi Moriji nodded, without any surprise.

Since the enemy has found the road in Bofushannan and dared to come with a small cavalry vanguard, he took the risk to go deeper; the generals must have realized the importance of that direction, how could there be no subsequent reinforcements?

Ouchi Morimi took his entourage and rode to the central army. When he arrived in a house, he saw the chief generals, Yoshige Spora, Hosokawa, and Yamae, among them.

The generals came to see Danui Sheng, perhaps because they wanted to persuade Danui so that he could make self-sacrifice and protect the overall situation?

Unexpectedly, the chief general Spoyichi spoke and said, "The situation is urgent, and the original defense plan is no longer appropriate. The army of Kasuya County should immediately advance westward and march near Bofu Mountain."

I thought the family of Ouchi was about to be finished, but Ouchi Morimi suddenly heard such words and said it from the mouth of the master Spoh. Ouchi Morimimi suddenly couldn't stand the temptation and ignited some hope.

"I'm afraid it's contrary to the strategy that was agreed in advance, so this method is a bit hasty." Daming said. Yamashi was also a powerful guardian of the past, known as "Six-part One Hall". But his words were very implicit, because opposing Spobeying's proposal was equivalent to abandoning the great inner family.

The commander of the South Army and one of the Muromachi-doi leaders, Hosokawa, also echoed: "The issue reached was not a decisive battle."

When Ouchi Mori saw him, he didn't say anything.

As soon as Spoycen spoke, he was opposed, obviously very unhappy. He looked fierce and said coldly: "It is extremely unfortunate that the army dared not fight. Today, he was killed and abandoned again tomorrow. If this continues, he will definitely lose! If he attacks with all his strength, his reputation will last forever."

Yamae turned his head and looked at the silent Ouchi Monastery and said, "What do you think of Ouchi?"

Ouchi Morimiya felt that what Spoh said was not without reason. After all, as long as the war was not over, no one could completely determine the result. Of course, the most important thing was that Ouchi Morimiya was willing to believe Spoh's proposal.

However, deep in Ouchi Morimiya's heart, she still maintained a trace of unbiased rationality: once she decided to fight together, she would invest the essence of the entire Japanese country's military power. How serious are the consequences in the win or defeat in the blink of an eye? I'm afraid it's not an exaggeration to think about it.

The battle of the Japanese army to repel the Yuan gangs more than a hundred years ago has affected until today; the outcome of this decisive battle will determine how long will the Japanese destiny last?

Who can believe that the choice between the prosperity and decline of the "world" (Japanese vassal states) is just in this moment?

Daming suddenly said coldly: "The hesitation of Ouchi has confirmed the situation."

Spoyishige said: "The enemy came from a long journey and had not yet established a foothold. Our army was several times higher than the enemy, but we had to abandon the troops of the big family. Who would take such a mistake in the future? Retreat may not be able to win, and there is no chance of winning in the joint battle."

Ouchi Mori bowed and said, "You are the chief general, please make a decision!"

Spoyichong pulled out his Japanese sword and suddenly raised it and said loudly: "Long live the Emperor, Your Majesty!"

Several people were stunned for a moment, and had to echo: "Long live!"

Spoyishiro's determination shout did not touch Ouchi Mori, but instead made him feel a little shocked.

However, the decision to join forces still made Ouchi Morimiya feel temporary relief; because in this way, the power of Ouchi's family will not be destroyed immediately. The Japanese will not sympathize with the losers. Ouchi Morimiya knows that once he loses everything, he will only wait for shame, humiliation and despise.

It is still nearly forty miles from the army's garrison, Kasuya County, to the gate of the downhill gate of the Ouai-guarded Bofu Mountain. Spo Yoshige decided to assemble the entire army today and set out in the early morning tomorrow. If there is no blocking and harassment from the Ming cavalry, the army will be able to reach the vicinity of Bofu Mountain within one day.

Military orders were successively spread to various military camps, and the Japanese soldiers were in high morale and actively prepared for war. Most of them had never fought with the Ming army. In addition, the pro-war faction of "Luoyang" was very popular, and some false acts may have been carried out, so that most soldiers from the eastern countries were eager to fight.

Seeing that he left the central army, Ouchi Mori couldn't help but stop and wait for the soldiers there. Some samurai were practicing. They stood with all concentration and suddenly pulled out the samurai sword and waved forward.

Ouchi Morimi was also inspired. When he returned to his residence, he knelt down under the cherry tree and concentrated. After all, things had come to this point, so he could only do his best.

In "swordsmanship", fear and looking forward are taboos; only by being wholehearted and dedicated can the danger be truly relieved at the moment of knocking down the opponent. Such determination and tension gradually made Ouchi Moriki feel a little pleasure.

The petals that occasionally fall on the ground are silent. Da Nei Shengjian seems to be feeling their tranquility, looking for inner peace and mindfulness without distractions.

A sharp sword light kept popping up in his mind. But Moriya Ouchi understood that he had always just hidden his fear; only if everyone bears such a great responsibility in the world, he could forget the subtle panic.

The next morning, the genius was dawn. There were already a huge shouting sound in various parts of Yawu County, "Oh..." The shouting was very special, constantly rippling in the air. The weather was clear and the temperature was pleasant. The late spring season was a good time.

Ouchi Morimi also set out with his retainers and guards. His team was the simplest because there were not many people. The troops of the Ouchi family were almost all stationed in the area north of Bofu Mountain and near the sea. At this time, the various troops dispatched were tens of thousands of reinforcements from various Japanese countries.
