![]() Exor is a pretty cool dude. It's your nub friend's fault for dropping that bag on the ground instead of giving it to a group member. Case closed.

![]() In May or June 1560, Imagawa Yoshimoto, with an army of perhaps 35,000 men, set forth on a march to Kyoto. Entering the Oda territories in Owari Province, he first took the border fortresses of Washizu and Marune before setting up camp in a wooded gorge known as Dengaku-hazama. This was all reported to Oda Nobunaga by his scouts and, in response, Nobunaga then led his own forces into position at a temple called Zenshōji, a short distance away, on the other side of the Tōkaidō.
Had Nobunaga decided on a frontal assault, the battle would have been deceptively easy to predict; his army was outnumbered ten to one by the Imagawa forces. A frontal assault would be suicidal and an attempt to hold out at Zenshō-ji would only last a few days. Because of the odds against their side, some of Nobunaga's advisers even suggested a surrender. Nobunaga, however, decided to launch a surprise attack on the Imagawa camp. When he made his decision, he gave this speech: Quote:
The Imagawa samurai did not expect an attack, and that afternoon was very hot. The histories say that the Imagawa were celebrating their recent victories with song, dance, and sake. An afternoon rainstorm further aided Oda's soldiers who arrived at the Imagawa camp just as the rains came down (this was the afternoon of 12 June). When the storm passed, Nobunaga's men poured into the camp from the north, and the Imagawa warriors lost all discipline and fled from the attackers. This left their commander's tent undefended, and the Oda warriors closed in rapidly. Imagawa Yoshimoto, unaware of what had transpired, heard the noise and emerged from his tent shouting at his men to quit their drunken revelry and return to their posts. By the time he realized, moments later, that the samurai before him were not his own, it was far too late. He deflected one samurai's spear thrust, but was beheaded by another. With their leader dead, and all but two of the senior officers killed, the remaining Imagawa officers joined Oda's army. Soon the Imagawa faction was no more and Oda Nobunaga was famous as his victory was hailed by many in Japan as miraculous. The most important of the samurai lords who joined Oda after this battle was Tokugawa Ieyasu from Mikawa Province. Ieyasu would remain a loyal ally of Nobunaga from this time until the latter's death.

Why refer to yourself as "him"? Only you and our group would know anything about the training issue.. nobody else was in that camp when it happened, and we never uttered a word about it to anyone else. I'm pretty sure we never even said anything about it outside of our group. If you "remember" it.. it could only be because you were there [You must be logged in to view images.

And on a further point.. it's funny how you call other people friendless and lifeless with nothing better to do than post here, and yet have more posts in this thread than anyone else. Utter fail lol. I'm not sure this thread is worthy of the Michael Jackson eating popcorn gif but we can work on that. Zyvixious is doing a great job of getting it there [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

![]() Zyvixious is dumb.
He is far less sophmoric than this thread tho. All of this crying over a bag of summoned bandages is the most retarded thing I've seen all year. Also, LOL at the waterbrain who thinks non-black people should not use "homies" in their vernacular. Fucktards.
