1539: The Way of the World
The army under the Daimyo in Harima progressed nicely with the addition of several units of Warrior Monks. This proved to be good timing for Oda captured the weakly defended, but pivotal, province of Awaji. Now, as feared, there were two fronts, not only opening up a third point of attack into Harima, but a backdoor behind the lines through Sanuki. Here was what our part of the world looked like in 1539:
One of the interesting things to notice was how Oda had split its forces to go into Awaji, leaving Kawachi and Tamba with less units. However, we could not see into Yamashkio or Wasaka to know how many units Oda could move to the fronts. But the time was here to attack while the Daimyo sat in Awaji.
Another good harvest, our third in five years, will provide the necessary koku for building more and more Warrior Monks in addition to the future No-Dachi units.
