Chapter 127 15. Itagaki Suruga Has a Deep Plan

Yamauchi Yoshikatsu looked at Koyata with astonishment, "Is this guy stupid? What's wrong with him?"

Several followers were puzzled. Seeing Yamauchi Yoshikatsu's glance, they looked up at the sky, down at the ground, and at the air. They pretended to know nothing, "It's your fault that this guy got stupid. We didn't know anything. He laughed like a moron after talking to you for three sentences. You can't get away from it." (Psychological activities are really fucking rich)

Koyata was still muttering, "Uedahira Uedahira, Ueda Hirano is Uedahara, hahahahahahaha."

"You don't know Uedahara, hahahahahahaha, I know. Not only do I know, I also..." Now even Yamauchi Yoshikatsu felt that Koyata was crazy. He might have bumped into something unclean. Fortunately, Japan doesn't use black dog blood to exorcise evil spirits. Otherwise, Yamauchi Yoshikatsu might have asked someone to kill a dog to get blood, and then pour it all over Koyata.

The people around him didn't understand what made Xiao Pingtai laugh. Uedahara? How could a small plain in an unknown mountain valley be so funny? Could it be a joke? But there was no joke.

"Left horse head, hurry up, I have something important to report to the lord." Xiao Pingtai laughed enough, and immediately changed to a serious expression, squeezed his legs and rushed out first.

Yamauchi Yoshikatsu didn't understand, "This guy was laughing like a fool just now, and suddenly he's fine again? It seems that there is something dirty, it's better to go home and find a monk to chant sutras." He saw that Xiao Pingtai had run away in a flash, shook his head and stopped thinking about these things, and had to hurry to catch up. Several riders and horses rushed towards Yamauchi Yoshiharu's shogunate in the shining sunset.

Kobayata jumped off his horse (it was the Kiso horse, which was less than 1.2 meters long, that gave Kobayata the courage to jump off the horse). After a short wait, Aji ran from the camp and took over Kobayata's horse and whip. Kobayata told Aji to feed the horse, which would be useful tomorrow. Aji agreed and went to help Kobayata take care of the horse. Tatsuzo quietly waited outside the shogunate holding Kobayata's bag, ready to deal with Kobayata's call at any time. Heiroku stayed in the reserve team to count the number of soldiers and supplies.

Pulling aside the curtain, Yamanouchi Yoshiharu and the chief accountant Yamanouchi were discussing military information with their hands behind their backs. In addition to some trivial matters such as the expenditure of money and food and the mobilization of soldiers and horses, they were mainly discussing whether the Ejiri clan could arrive in Shimojo tomorrow afternoon.

The two saw Kobayata come in, and seeing that he was one of their own, they didn't care. They glanced at Kobayata and continued to discuss. Yamanouchi Yoshiharu waved his hand casually, indicating that Kobayata should find a stool and sit down by himself.

Kobayata was unwilling to wait any longer, and he didn't sit down. He clasped his fists directly to Yamauchi Yoshiharu, "My lord, the opportunity to destroy the armored army is tomorrow. When will the Ejiri people arrive?"

"Hmm? What did you say?" "Please tell me when the Ejiri people will arrive?" Yamauchi Yoshiharu was slightly stunned. He didn't understand why Kobayata suddenly vowed that he could defeat the Takeda army tomorrow.

"It can't be nonsense. Kobayata doesn't have any bad habits of lying except being lazy and playing tricks." Yamauchi Yoshiharu was confused and felt very strange that Kobayata came to him without any reason.

"Around tomorrow afternoon, the Ejiri people should be able to arrive." Yamauchi touched his chin and stroked his short beard. He also saw that his brother was confused. Just now, everyone was still discussing the military and felt that it was not easy to fight, but Kobayata said confidently that there was a way to do this job.

"What do you mean, Kobayata, when you said that we will defeat the enemy tomorrow?" Yamauchi Yoshikatsu was a few steps slower than Kobayata. He opened the curtain and entered the shogunate. After hearing what Kobayata said, he asked directly.

The other people in the shogunate also looked at Kobayata. Kobayata found a chair and sat down first. Then he calmly poured a cup of cold tea, gulped it down, licked his lips, and moistened his throat. The others just looked at him, no one spoke, waiting for Kobayata to start the performance.

"Observe the formation of the A army this morning. What is the formation of the A army? Who is the first mover?" Kobayata did not answer Yamauchi Yoshikatsu's question, but asked him two questions first. Because there were big guys in the curtain, the others could not cooperate with Kobayata's performance.

Yamauchi Yoshikatsu saw that his father and uncle closed their eyes, calm and composed, and did not seem to speak at all. Looking at Kobayata, it was obvious that he was asking questions here, so only he, the younger generation, could speak.

"The Crane Wing Formation deployed by the A army, the first movers on the left and right wings are the famous brave generals of the A army, Koyamada Sabei and Komiyayama Tangomori, and the general of the main team is Takeda clan patriarch Kakaki Suruga no Kamikata. Is there anything wrong?" Yamauchi Yoshikatsu stated straightforwardly.

"Of course there is nothing wrong, but is it really right? Think about it carefully, Samatou." Kobayata tapped Muramasa's scabbard with his fingers, making a rhythmic sound.

"No?" Several people said at the same time. There is obviously nothing wrong, how could it be wrong. Not to mention Yamauchi Yoshikatsu, everyone in the curtain felt what Kobayata said? Obviously everyone saw clearly just now that the A army's arrangement was absolutely correct.

Kobayata saw that the time had come and everyone was shocked by him. "What is the key to the Crane Wing Formation?"

Yamauchi Yoshiharu was an old soldier and felt that Kobayata's asking such a low-IQ question was pitiful. As a senior, he slowly narrated: "The two wings of the Crane Wing Formation are like cranes spreading out. The main formation should use elite, honest, brave and loyal soldiers to resist the enemy's fierce attack. The two wings should be deployed with thick troops to prevent the enemy from running around. When the enemy's offensive weakens and the two wings surround it, the troops of the main formation will immediately counterattack and annihilate the enemy."

Koheita nodded as he listened, looking like he was willing to learn, and waited for Yamanouchi Yoshiharu to finish. Kobayata turned to look at Yamauchi Yoshikatsu, "Hasn't Samatou heard anything yet? No feeling at all?"

Yamanouchi Yoshikatsu clapped his hands, and an idea suddenly occurred to him, "The main camp of the opposing Jia army did not use the most elite and capable Kai headquarters, but the Suwa clan. The Kai headquarters was dispersed to the two wings of the pioneers Koyamada Saemon and Komiyayama Tangomori."

Kobayata clapped his hands, "That's right, that's right, Samatou is right."

"The opposing Jia army did not want to defend at all. They are obviously preparing to use the most elite Kai headquarters to attack our army tomorrow morning, and use the minority to defeat the majority and destroy our army."

"The two wings of the crane are just spread out, like the two sides of an iron clamp, with the elite Kai as the vanguard to encircle our army, and then Itagaki Surugamori drives the Suwa soldiers to attack head-on, the number of wins and losses is obvious."

Kobayata stood up and looked at the people in front of him.

"My lord, do you think what I said makes sense?"
