The scorching heat of midsummer was taken away by the cool sea breeze. The last vestiges of heat were taken away by the cool sea breeze. Yuezhong always sent troops. In the next month, the 75,000-strong army snowballed, burning, killing and looting all the way into Xinchuan County.
, the Yokota family was unable to resist and was forced to abandon their home city and flee towards the Shiina family.
Yamamoto Tokiyuki came to Echichu earlier and found that Shinkawa County was a good place. After careful analysis of the geographical environment, he decided to set up a formation at Matsukura Castle of the Shiina family. The five thousand new troops could do very little. It was inappropriate to expect them to charge into the formation.
Taking five thousand men's life to attack the countless people is tantamount to committing suicide.
Yamamoto Tokiyuki was certain that he dared to bring them out. Echichu had always been a joke in his eyes. The large number of people did not mean that they were great. On the contrary, the more people there were, the more difficult it would be to command them. The strategic adjustment of military deployment and supplies even
Everything in the military camp requires more energy to adjust.
As for Hokuriku's Ichigo army, it's even more of a joke. Fifty years ago, when the Kaga Ichiko clan was at its peak, the Kaga Sanji Temple mobilized an army of 300,000 to invade Echizen, 300,000 people! In medieval Japan, there were 200,000
There are countless wars on a human scale, not to mention that this is 300,000 people, and it is a military force of one side.
The general sent by the Asakura family to fight was the former Northern Army God Asakura Sotechi. At that time, this old man was still a young man in his prime, and his name was still Asakura Kyoukei. This gentleman led Asakura's 16,000 troops in Kuzu
On the edge of Ryukawa, the vast Kaga Ikku army was defeated one after another. Not only did they agree to join the battle, they also took advantage of the situation to destroy the Yoshizaki Obo established in Echizen. This battle also became the famous battle for the God of the Northern Army.
It is undeniable that the Asakura family was very powerful at that time. The former governor of the family, Asakura Toshikage, was a powerful figure during the Onin Rebellion. He single-handedly laid the foundation of the Echizen Asakura family and created the Tsuruga clan and Ono clan with outstanding military achievements.
Strong army. Asakura Sotetsu was able to defeat a large army with a small number of elites. He relied on excellent military strategies and 16,000 elite soldiers and generals who were good at fighting.
It stands to reason that the Asakura family can do it, and the Kira family can also do it, but being unable to do it is not something you can say, but it is practiced through actual actions. Yamamoto Tokiyuki feels that leading these five thousand new recruits is the only way to do it.
Less than this, Yue Zhong has never had an army of 300,000. We also don't have 16,000 elite troops. Five thousand raw melons and eggs still lack the experience of lack of blood and fire.
On the other hand, the 5,000 Omi new troops were all high-spirited and high-spirited, pretending to save the world. Yamamoto Tokiyuki didn't know how to persuade them. In addition to strengthening military discipline and emphasizing unity and obedience, he was busy strengthening the defensive facilities of the walled city all day long.
Building city walls was his specialty. He completed the construction of Matsukura Castle in just two months, and the delighted city lord Shiina Yasuyin couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear all day long.
Yuezhong has always been not a professional army, they are more like a group of bandits under the banner of gods and Buddhas. There is no unified command or even a nominal leader. The troops are sent out based on their own feelings. From Tobo County, they are like a swarm of locusts.
Crazy eating villages large and small in Vietnam.
The farmers either joined the Yixiang Yikui and turned around to rob their neighbors, or they donated all the food at home to save their lives. The Yixiang Yikui in Vietnam also gave this a nice name for the "arrow" to be issued for the war.
"Money", only the devil knows why when Xiang Yikui asked for this "money", he didn't even let go of the pickles that the farmers had picked themselves.
The army in Vietnam always moved slowly, so Yamamoto Tokiyuki was given enough time to make arrangements. The five thousand troops and the three thousand people who fled from Vietnam were all mobilized to work. In two months, three refugees fled to Xinchuan County.
Thousands of people were scared away by the "tyranny" that they always suppressed.
All these refugees were placed in various branch cities along the line from Uozu Castle to Matsukura Castle. The Kira Army provided enough food and temporarily recruited them as civilians to build defense facilities in the cities where they were located. The current Echigo is not what it used to be. It has long been the same.
A remote territory with poor mountains and rivers, it has transformed from a fellow country in distress with China into a wealthy country with great interests.
Not to mention that the Chinese people in Yuezhong are envious and greedy, even the local residents of Yuezhong have sneaked in so many people in the past few years. The population of Yuezhong has not changed significantly in the past few years. The main reason is that the people from Yuezhong have fled.
When arriving in Echigo, foreigners who come to Echigo also hope to go to Echigo one day. I heard that Echigo's population has exceeded 600,000 and is still faced with the dilemma of fewer people and more land. 80% of these 30,000 refugees are also ready to make a move. It is impossible to say that this year
After this war, I went to Echigo to hunt for food.
Yarokuro Kawakami was sweating profusely while waving a hoe to dig out the earth. He had been digging the earth at Shogatayama Castle for more than half a month. A steep cliff was cut out of the southern slope. The earth he was digging was two meters deep.
Many inner walls need to be repeatedly pounded and tamped with wooden hammers, and then sharp wooden nails are embedded to make traps. The process is not complicated but is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
After a while, there was a faint sound of bells on the top of the mountain. Yarokuro Kuramitsu glanced up at the sun, threw the hoe in his hand on the ground, used his legs to leap out of the field, and shouted to the working people who were still immersed in their work: "
It’s done! It’s done! We’ll do the work this afternoon, let’s go eat!”
"Okay!" A dozen people suddenly jumped out of Tobori, all of them strong and powerful. Seeing Yarokuro Kawagami showing a little anger, they quickly lowered their heads, hunched their shoulders and slumped their waists, pretending to be honest country guys.
The men stood in groups on the hilltop in twos and threes, not talking, just in a daze.
But after a while, all the civilians in the village climbed up. At a glance, there were at least seventy or eighty people. An old man in his fifties walked out of the crowd and said to him very friendly: "Yarokuro is here! We were all talking
Without Rokuro as the leader of our group, this work would never have been completed so easily. It only took half a month to leave the three groups far behind. After repairing the city defense this time, the gentlemen in the city will definitely appreciate it.
Let's do it! Speaking of which, my old man saw a group of big men coming to the city from a distance. I heard that they were still Echigo big men, and they said they were here to inspect the defense construction of the mountain castle."
Muhachi, who was as thin as a monkey, suddenly rubbed his belly and put on a sad face and shouted: "Ouch! I have a stomachache! It's all because Uncle Jinzo nags me that I'm hungry... I said don't look at me like that.
, if you keep nagging a little longer, dinner will be over! What will happen if you make us guys hungry and have no energy to work in the afternoon! The samurai gentlemen will be angry! "
Jin San angrily retorted: "Nonsense! You, a bastard, have long been able to lie to this old man. The old man only said a few words, so don't try to scare him with this..." (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, novels are better.
