Chapter 884 Fail Again

"KS?!"

At this moment, before Mitsuhide Akechi, who was leading the soldiers, could fully react, the traps formed by countless sticks and spears cut out of the original material, that is, the trees owned by the forest itself, shot towards the team from all directions.

"Get out!" Akechi Mitsuhide shouted urgently.

At the same time, he quickly jumped to the side, rolled around, and avoided all kinds of attacks that came later.

"A trap is even set up here, should it be you, Hanbei." Akechi Mitsuhide, who temporarily escaped the attack, said with a heavy heart.

What does this mean? Explain what the other party thinks of her, or that the marching arrangements have been anticipated, so that they can accurately lay enough traps on the way she must pass through the march, so that they will be wounded in a non-combat state.

Even if there are not many, there are only seven or eight people, but for a team of only 200 people, it is equivalent to a reduction of nearly one-tenth of the staff.

If this happens a few more times, wouldn't it mean that they came out for nothing this time?

This is not allowed!

As a confident and proud Mitsuhide Akechi, she couldn't keep losing in the land of Mino again and again, that would be a shame to her face.

But before she could think about it, noisy footsteps and human voices rang out in the forest.

"There it is!"

"Come on!"

"Destroy them!"

Akechi Mitsuhide's face changed again when he heard this, he didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately reorganized the team.

"Everyone, stand up immediately. The enemy is coming. If you don't want to die like this, then pick up your weapon and charge up. We can only survive if we deal with them!" Akechi Mitsuhide drew out his sword shouted.

Apparently, she already understood that the appearance of these people was not a coincidence, but like a trap, Hanbei Takenaka had arranged here in advance, the purpose was to prevent someone from the Imagawa Army from detouring here to sneak attack on Inaba mountain city.

Following this, the soldiers of the Jinchuan Army quickly got up from the ground, picked up their weapons and became alert.

In just a moment, he encountered Meinong's soldiers.

There was no nonsense between the two sides, and they went straight to fight in the mountains and forests.

...

Fortunately, Meinong did not have many soldiers here, only about 300 soldiers. After all, compared to the Imagawa army who only needed to choose one path to break through, there were more than one path for sneaking around Inabayama Castle, and apart from a few that could not be passed, there were three or four such mountain paths that needed to be defended. ! If each of them sent hundreds of people there to defend, even if Inabayama Castle occupied a good location and did not need to invest too many troops in defense, it would still be in danger of being breached under the attack of the Imagawa Army's huge crowd.

Therefore, one hundred to three hundred people is the limit for each small road according to the situation. No matter how many people there are, even if the mountain city can send out troops, the Banbingwei will not do that.

So in addition to the task of blocking, each team member has another task - that is, after finding the enemy, immediately sound the alarm and pass the news to the mountain city, so that the mountain city can deal with it.

In this way, even if the number of people is small, it can't beat the unit of the Jinchuan Army, and it will not be attacked by the opponent without any preparation.

What's more, it may not be impossible to wipe out the Jinchuan Army in the mountains and forests.

Otherwise, wouldn't the traps set up overnight be in vain?

Therefore, in this way of thinking, although the soldiers of the Mino Army fought bravely, they always lacked a sense of death. Coupled with the existence of Akechi Mitsuhide, even though there were almost a hundred fewer people, they finally killed nearly half of them. Hours later, victory came at a terrible cost...

Except for Mitsuhide Akechi, there are less than 20 survivors...

"My lord, do you want to continue?" The surviving soldier with various wounds looked at Mitsuhide Akechi with lingering fear on his face and asked.

Obviously, he didn't want to continue.

Similarly, although the others did not speak, judging from the expressions in their eyes, they all had similar meanings, so Akechi Mitsuhide gritted his teeth and ordered very unwillingly, "Let's go."

After speaking, he stopped looking at the faces of other soldiers, turned around and walked back the way he came.

...

Not long after that, the members of Akechi Mitsuhide's team returned to the main formation.

"Sorry, the operation failed." Akechi Mitsuhide reported to Shibata Katsuie with a face full of shame.

"Has it been counted?" Qin Heqing said thoughtfully.

"Yes, our action plan was all predicted by the other party, so if it is not expected, other small roads that can detour to the mountain city should have similar precautions. It is difficult to break through without sending out an army." Akechi Mitsuhide affirmed .

This is also the current dilemma. The division of troops means that the offensive power on the front line has weakened. Although the effect of containment can still be achieved, it is certainly not as strong as the current effect. It is easy to free up the mountain city to deal with other things. matter. No division of troops? Then one to two hundred, three to four hundred people would not have much effect at all to break out of the siege. Maybe the breakout was not completed, and the troops that were sent out would be wiped out by Meinong's arrangement first.

So there is only one way to solve the problem that can be thought of now, and that is to ask Owari for help, so that Owari can send more troops to support them and help them break through the city.

"What do you mean?" Shibata Katsuie asked Qin Heqing, who was looking aside.

Zhizhi Guangxiu doesn't know the strength of Qin and Qing, but she knows that Qin and Qing have the ability to resist the army alone! If he is willing to help in the attack, even if they don't ask Owari for help, they can still take Inabayama Castle and open the door to attack Mino.

"Ask Owari for help." Qin Heqing thought for a while.

It's not that he never thought about the possibility of his own action, but when he thought of Takenaka Hanbing, the former ghost, and Tokimi who has now turned into a monster, Qin Heqing gave up this plan.

Without him, the success rate is too low.

And it is easy to leave criticism to the outside world. After all, Yoshimoto Imagawa's family is not the only one who can invite a mage. If all the families raise the war to the level of magic, the death and injury caused...

Just thinking about Qin and Qing makes me feel terrible——

I'm afraid that if it wasn't for the Warring States period, one-third of the population of the island country would disappear.

"I'll contact Yoshimoto." After thinking about it, Qin Heqing took out the bronze mirror in front of Shibata Katsuie and Akechi Mitsuhide, contacted Imagawa Yoshimoto who was enjoying himself in the rear, and told the other party the problem here.

"Are you asking for help... Well, then I will send another 3,000 troops to support you. Really, a little girl has caused me such a big trouble. It seems that it is necessary to take her , teach her some lessons, let her and other family governors understand that I, Imakawa Yoshimoto, is not so easy to mess with." Imagawa Yoshimoto said angrily.
