HY: The *Asakura army pursuing us is 20,000 strong
*according to the Asakura Shimatsu-ki, there were 22,150 troops

HY: Our Kinoshita Rear Guard numbers 3,000
HY: We'll intercept them now!!

HY: Alright?
Box: Mountains near Kanegasaki Castle, Echizen. Retreat route of the Kinoshita Rear Guard.

HY: Here the mountain pass is a single lane. The Asakura army must advance in a long line, so only a few of them can attack at once.

Pg 152
HY: But... Even so, there's no way we can push back against a big army like that when it's coming down on us.
HY: There is only one tactic to use against it

HY: Our main forces will block the enemy advance at the front.
HY: On the side, hidden on some higher ground, a small ambush force will burst right into the middle of the enemy, intercept their attacks, and aim for the general of the enemy vanguard....

HY: Since the main general will be in danger, then the enemy will have to withdraw at once.
HY: Using that chance, we'll also retreat

HY: Sengoku and these fifty others will be our elite ambush unit!
