The Imakawa army is 16,000. People eat horses and chew daily foods, and there will generally be no major fluctuations. Even if the war is fierce, soldiers consume a lot of money, they cannot make more snacks for soldiers. It is impossible to say that suddenly someone becomes a big eater and eat a meal of a thousand people.

After all, the Taiyuan Zen Master of the Imakawa family is a famous wise general in the world. He has never made any mistakes in planning and planning. More than half of the contributions to the great monk's contribution to the great monk's army. How could there be any error in the supply of military rations in his army?

Then there are only two possibilities. One is that the Imakawa family generals launched a surprise attack and prepared rice balls in advance. The other is that the Imakawa army is about to run out of food, so they will prepare the last point for the soldiers and then withdraw all the way back to Jun Mansion.

As for other possibilities, Xiaoheita couldn't imagine it for a moment. He also felt that there would be no possibility anymore. He wouldn't really say that Imakawa Yoshimoto felt that the soldiers were being beaten up today, and it was very hard to give them midnight snacks, right?

No one of the soldiers and the low-level samurai noticed this, and they were still happily waiting for today's rice to eat. Xiaotai thought this might be an opportunity, so she went to find Uncle Tsunara and found that he was even better than himself.

He ran to the shore to see how many numbers he saw, and found that such smoke was used by at least 30,000 troops in one day. He is worthy of being a master of bad war for eighteen years. Xiaoping Tai complained that you and me are still hiding, and this kind of thing doesn't teach me.

So Xiaopingta quickly grabbed Uncle Tsunara and said, "We are both our own people, teach me, don't be too stingy."

Uncle Tsunaliang waved his hand: "Teach it after the fight, teach it after the fight, and figure it out first."

Seeing that Uncle Tsunara's sloppy father was foolish, Xiaoheita wanted to ask again, but he pulled Xiaoheita and went to the shogunate, saying that he would report it quickly.

Because the Uncle Tsunara, who had finished counting the number, also felt that the movements of the Imakawa army were suspicious, so the two went to report to Yamauchi Yoshiji. On the way, Xiaoheita tried to indirectly, and this person was just talking about him, which was so angry that he was so angry.

After being allowed to enter the shogunate, the two of them reported their own experiences carefully. Yamauchi Yoshiji and Hashimoto-joko Konishihara Saemon all climbed up to the watchtower after hearing this, and each observed based on their own experience. At this time, the number of smoke from the Imakawa army had decreased, but the data obtained by the two was far exceeding 16,000.

Konishihara Saemon estimated the number, turned around and asked Yamauchi Yoshiji: "The lord has seen more than 20,000 people."

Yamauchi Yoshiji pinched his cell phone and closed his eyes for a while: "More than 20,000 people, there are indeed a lot more, which is very suspicious."

At this time, Yamauchi Yoshiji thought about Koheita being responsible for the Hodo team this time, and completely felt that this young man was quite capable.

So he asked Xiaopingta what he thought: "Xiaopingta, what do you think? Tell me."

As soon as he heard about himself, Xiaopingta hurriedly replied: "As we all know, because the Tianlong River flows very much, the Yuanjiang Kingdom is divided into two, and it is absolutely impossible to get through the army of tens of thousands quickly without being discovered. Then it is impossible for the Imakawa army to make so much food, it is impossible for only a few hundred or two thousand surprise attack teams. Apart from launching a large-scale night battle of tens of thousands tonight, it is only possible that it is going to retreat."

"I just came over the riverside, and on the river beach on the side of Imakawa, the reeds were not cut down and harvested at all. It is obviously an unwise act to put such an easy-to-get torch, and to transport it from the rear."

"If you don't prepare the torch, it is impossible to mobilize the army on a large scale in the night battle. The only way is to prepare the military and food for retreat in advance." Xiaopingta said everything he saw and heard and analyzed.

Uncle Tsunara and Konihara, who were beside him, also spoke: "The fighting spirit of the Imakawa army is getting lower and lower? The morale is already very low. In addition, the autumn harvest is about to be about to be harvested, and the soldiers are thinking about the rice at home, so it is not an exaggeration to say that the morale of the army is disintegrating."

Koheita also agreed quite well. After all, the Imagawa army also mobilized peasant soldiers as the main force of combat, and it is inevitable that soldiers will think of home. They can come to fight for the first time to respond to Imagawa Yoshimoto's feudal military obligations, and the other is purely to eat Imagawa Yoshimoto's food.

Seeing that several people were inclined to the situation where the Imakawa army was weak and they might retreat at night, Yamauchi Yoshiji sent someone to invite his old Hosokawa Harumiya. Hosokawa Harumiya for 40 years, and no one here can compare to him in many battles. He listened carefully to various opinions and expressed his agreement. After a discussion, he believed that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it.

So the second master did not bother with one matter. Tsunara's team launched a surprise attack at 3:00 before tomorrow morning, and Konishihara's team expanded the results from the other side. There was no need to be too many people, and each of them could automatically use one hundred elite soldiers who dared to fight.

After all, it was the limit to the ability to draw more than 200 soldiers without night blindness. The remaining small men, formation men and various personnel were all pretending to be in the rear, pretending to be a large army.

Some people will definitely ask here, how did these soldiers from the mountains cross the Tianlong River, which has a larger water potential in the middle of the night?

This has zero tests for soldiers from Minami and Koshu. The reason is that the Tetsubuki River and Kamiguchi have been flooding for years. The entire Minami and Koshu are not good at water quality and cannot row or swim and dive. All the people who are not good at boating or swimming have been drowned in the flood. Although it is just a joke, it is also a sad fact. All the soldiers in the inland mountains are swimming athletes.

Moreover, soldiers who can stay blind all night are relatively strong, and swimming across the river in the middle of the night is a little bit of a problem, and there is no problem at all.

In addition, the river water in June is not so cold. More than 100 samurai servants were selected, and each of them gave a piece of kapok cloth and a few chili peppers (this is not for eating, but for crushing and rubbing the body, which can stimulate the skin and finally make people feel hot. It is recorded in "The Story of the Miscellaneous Soldiers").

Then all the soldiers were given a full meal, each of them had a few sips of wine. From the second half of the night, three or five people were scrambling to cross the Tianlong River with armor and weapons. After arriving on the other side, they dried their bodies with cotton cloth and put on their armor. The Kapok Step could be used as Genji's small white flag, so that the soldiers could tie them to their shoulders or shoulder armor.

Xiaopingta was actually a little night blind, but he could barely see the sounds of people and joined in. After crossing the river, he lurked in the reeds on the shore with his soldiers. Before the assault, he ordered the soldiers to eat the last rice ball. He would definitely be hungry if he struggled all night and would attack immediately. It is definitely necessary to eat something to replenish his energy.

Wait, wait.

The mist by the river is already spreading, and Xiaopingta probably will be four o'clock soon, and it will be dawn in another hour.
