Chapter 372

Nagao Kagetora's name change was another big event that caused a stir in Kanto. This time he not only changed his name, but also changed the surnames of his courtiers and his own Miao characters. He recognized Uesugi Kenmasa as his adoptive father and inherited the Yamauchi Uesugi family, thereby completing the process of growing up.

One of the many branches of the Oga family became the head of the prestigious Uesugi family in Kanto.

The new name Masatora Uesugi gave the Kanto people a huge impact. Echigo's increasingly naked body made the Hojo family in Sagami Odawara sleepless and uneasy. However, they still couldn't accuse Uesugi Masatora of wrong behavior. Hate

Feeling itchy at the base of their teeth but not daring to take action, they had no choice but to knock out their teeth or swallow their blood. The whole army continued to launch a new attack on the Satomi clan of Shanhui Kingdom with a sullen voice.

Everyone knows that Uesugi Kenmasa, the governor of the Yamauchi Uesugi family, was forced to go to Echigo by the Hojo family. Uesugi Kenmasa repeatedly gave away his hat to the governor, which once became the funniest event of the year in the Eight Kingdoms of Kanto. It is said that because of the sending of the governor's hat

He was also ridiculed severely by the town government official and made it a harsh requirement for his wife to serve as the governor of Guandong, which almost made the last governor go crazy.

It goes without saying how powerful Echigo is. Just look at the way the Hojo family gave in and the Takeda family looked so miserable in Kai. You can tell that those two Echigo were incredible samurai, even if they were considered to be some of the most famous generals in the world.

I don’t think it’s too boastful. If someone else were to be the general of Echigo, who would dare to send out the army to fight against the terrifying strength of the four-pronged army of more than 100,000 people?

Not to mention that several key wars were won by Echigo. Even the most inconspicuous battle of Igarashi River exposed Echigo's strong reserve of generals. Two white-armored generals with four thousand

The strength of the army must have killed 6,000 Mutsu troops, howling like ghosts and wolves, almost costing the life of Date Terumune.

If Kanto is worried, then Mutsu and Deyu are really scared. They scraped together thousands of troops to rush to Echigo, which is not enough for others. The most terrible thing is that the main force of Echigo was destroyed.

Being beaten like this under the premise of attracting the outside world, what should I do if I face the main force of Echigo and those inhuman generals? The black dragon cavalry and ghost generals are terrifying to hear. It is said that Kawanakajima

During the battle, the name Blood Dragoon spread again, which made some people even more troubled.

Hojo Ujiyasu's retirement brought unpredictable changes to the Hojo family. The new governor of the family, Hojo Umasa, resolutely implemented his father's strategic decision. He targeted the Satomi clan in Minami Kanto. The Satomi clan of Anbo did have a lot of differences with the Hojo family.

Grudge, in Tenbun's second year, the Satomi family fell into internal strife. The disadvantaged Satomi Yoshihiro got the help of Hojo Uzuna to seize the family governor, and then turned against him and stood on the opposite side of the Hojo family.

Later, as Koyumi fought against the combination of Hojo Utsuna and Ashikaga Haru, at the most critical moment of the Kokufu Taiga War, Satomi Yoshihiro decisively retreated and severely deceived Koyumi, causing him to be trapped in the battle between the Hojo army.

After his death, he deceived his teammates twice in a row and sold out all the integrity of the Satomi family. Satomi Yoshiyao also took the opportunity to make a fortune and pocketed most of the land in the Shanghui Kingdom. From then on, he changed from a small wealthy family in Anfang to a serious son.

The famous Eight Classics.

This is not the complete history of his cheating on his teammates. During the Kanto Astronomy Rebellion a few years ago, Satomi Yoshiyao, who was known as the deputy commander of Kanto but actually betrayed his teammates, once again cheated half of the martial arts in Kanto. Seeing that the situation was not going well, he stepped on his feet again.

After smearing oil and running away, the Ota clan and the Chiba clan were ruthlessly surrounded by the Hojo army just like Yoshiaki Kogami, but the family governors of these two families were not so stupid and surrendered on the spot.

The Maratani family lost half of their family fortune before escaping narrowly. Even Masaki Tokishige, the minister who followed Satomi Yiyao to conquer the world, was thrown off by him and almost couldn't come back after being cut off. Then Satomi Yiyao

It began to expand again, and in the 23rd year of Tenmon, it invaded the territory of the Maratani clan on a large scale. Maratani Nobumasa was defeated and committed suicide, and Manxi Castle Toki Noriyori was forced to surrender, thus completing the plan to unify the Shanghui Kingdom.

The Hojo family launched an attack on the Satomi family under the banner of revenge for the Maratani family. The Hojo Ujimasa ordered the Minami Kanto nationals Ota Yasushi of Edo Castle, Ota Shimasa of Iwafu Castle, and the disabled Edo.

The crowd gathered an army of 23,000 people. They first held down the retainers in the northern Kanto area to continue to defend against the pressure from the Ueno direction. At the same time, they reassured the Chiba clan of the lower sect that they did not need to send troops to ensure the emotional stability of the lower sect members in the southern kandong area.

After hearing the news, the Satomi family hurriedly summoned their retainers and called for their allies, Satake Yoshiaki, who formed the alliance with Masakatsu and his son Yuki Ming Dynasty to lead an army. In a short period of time, the Satomi family gathered an army of 15,000 people and gathered in Ichikawa.

Waiting for the attack of the Hojo army, Hojo Ushimasa was worried that he would not be able to control the situation, so he invited his reclusive father Hojo Ujiyasu to Edo Castle to personally supervise the battle.

On April 5, the first mover led by Dihuo Hachiman and Hojo Tsunagi led the five-color Bi8000 army to the west bank of the Oinichi River, and then the rear formation was handed over to Daidoji Masashige, along with Hojo Umasa's two younger brothers, the young Hojo Uteru and Hojo Ujikuni, and Ota.

Sumasa was on the left wing, Ota Yasushi was on the right wing, and Hojo Ushimasa personally commanded a Chinese army of more than 20,000 people to attack the Ohikawa in a mighty manner.

The Hojo family reassured Chiba Yinfu that there was no need to worry, but the Chiba clan's national capital, Taicheng, had already been occupied by Satomi Yoshiyao. Seeing that the outpost stronghold close to the Hojo family had been captured, what if there really was a chaos like the Takayama Battle?

The Ye family would have to die, so Qianye Yinfu couldn't do it even if he didn't think about it in a hurry.

On April 6, the Hojo Army stationed its camp on the east bank of the Dainichi River, and prepared a large-scale attack without haste. Unexpectedly, Ota Shimao had already rebelled against the surrender of the Hojo family, and secretly contacted his uncle Jiang.

Ota Yasushi, the lord of the castle, agreed that when he raised his troops the next day, he would join the allied forces at the same time.

Ota Yasushi is the great-grandson of the Ota Dougan sect. He is nine years younger than Ota Shimasa but is a generation older. He has long been dissatisfied with the fact that he surrendered to the Hojo family but was forced to give up his hometown. So the two sides agreed to quietly contact the other side.

Satomi Jun, Ota Shizheng felt that although it was a bit deceptive to meet Yoshiyao here, at least everyone had an equal relationship, which was much better than following the Hojo family.

So when it was first light the next day, Tominaga Naokatsu, the vanguard of the Hojo Army, led his army across the Yagiri Ferry. Ota Shimasa and Yasushi Ota also actively joined the vanguard in crossing the river. When the vanguard crossed the other side of the Ohikawa River, they found their allies.

Ota Shimasa and Ota Yasushi suddenly broke away from the array and exposed themselves in the wild. Then they faced the fierce attack of the three-party coalition forces of Satomi Yoshihiro, Yuuki Masakatsu, and Satake Yoshiaki who looked like wolves and tigers.

The Qingbei bannerman who survived the high mountain battle was spilled on the Ohikawa River and became the first high-ranking samurai to die in this war. Tominaga Naokatsu, the new leader of the Edo people, was asked for it again. This directly caused the morale of the Edo people.

Total collapse. Several years of wars have resulted in constant losses of troops and generals. Less than a year after the death of the former leader Toyama Tsunakei, the current leader Naokatsu Tominaga was replaced again. The people of Edo no longer know how to fight. This elite has been

The cruel reality beats the fool mercilessly.

The collapse of morale brought disastrous consequences. Before the Hojo family's main force could figure out what was wrong with the forward, they were rushed by the defeated troops in a daze. Their own main force also panicked and followed without even having time to clean up their own camp.

Defeated and fled back to Edo Castle. Satoshi saw the allied forces singing and dancing excitedly, and held a celebration banquet that night to celebrate in advance the victory over the Hojo Army and to wish for the capture of Edo Castle and eventually Odawara in the subsequent war.

It has to be said that Satomi Yoshihiro was too careless in underestimating the enemy. In comparison, Hojo Ujiyasu's level was far higher than him. After learning that his Hojo Ujiyasu was defeated in a confused way and returned, Hojo Ujiyasu immediately realized that this was the right thing to do.

It is an excellent opportunity to counterattack. The Kanto Allied Forces, whose military rigor is much lower than that of the Uesugi Army, will definitely relax their vigilance after a great victory, so they once again resort to their best night fighting skills, on a dark night with high wind and moon.

Crossed the Yagiri Ferry again and headed towards the Kokufu Tai Camp.

He expected it to be true. Seeing that the coalition forces had indeed relaxed their vigilance, he thought that after defeating the Hojo Army, he would scare the enemy away. He imagined that the Hojo Army would be frightened by the news, just like they were attacked by the Long Tail Army, but he did not want to think about how much he weighed.

Two, the coalition forces didn't even have unified orders, so they had the nerve to compare them to Echigo's elite of hundreds of battles.

The Hojo Army arrived very suddenly. They crossed the river to the other side in the middle of the night and quietly touched the outside of the camp. At this time, the coalition camp was like a sleeping city. The cold night wind of early spring blew on the face and it would not take long for it to become numb.

Even the warriors who kept watch at night could not bear the chill and sleepiness and ran to take a nap next to the bonfire sheltered from the wind.

Satomi Yoshiyao, Ota Yasushi, Ota Shimasa, Yuuki Masakatsu, Yuki Mingchao and his son, Satake Yoshiaki and other national lords were drinking and having fun in the middle of the night. They just fell asleep and had no idea that the night attack of the Hojo Army would be so fast.

It was so intense, as if fire and shouts of death sounded at the same time in an instant.

The Hojo army with blue flags came from all directions. They raised their butcher knives and slaughtered the sleeping soldiers mercilessly. They set fire to the camps and burned the food and weapons. They went on a rampage and cut down everyone they met. They greeted people with grease-covered rockets as if they were free of charge.

Seeing the tents of the coalition forces, the entire camp soon turned into a big furnace with smoke and fire everywhere.

Yuuki Masakatsu was in poor health and went to bed early without drinking much, but he didn't want to encounter such a disaster. His son Yuuki Mingchao was drunk and unconscious. The old man finally shook his son to wake up, but found that Yuki Mingchao had drunk

His legs and feet were so weak that he couldn't even hold the sword. Dozens of mounted guards who rushed in were blocked by Hojo Ushige before they could protect the father and son from escaping.

Facing the red-eyed Hojo army, Yuki Meichao was killed by Hojo Ujishige with little resistance. Yuuki Masakatsu fell into the underworld before he could call for help. Satomi Yoshihiro unfortunately bumped into Hojo Tsunari.

He was stabbed in the shoulder by a gun and almost died, but Masaki Tokishige's desperate efforts saved him from Tsunari Hojo's gun.

The unsuspecting Ota Shimasa and Ota Yasushi were caught in the camp. The uncles and nephews of the Ota family once again became prisoners of the Hojo family. Yoshiaki Satake was more awakened and wiser. When he saw that the situation was not good, he took his family with him.

The army fled desperately, and at the same time he became the only daimyo among the Satomi coalition forces to retreat completely. In this battle, the coalition forces had 15,000 troops. Together with the Ota clan's 2,000 rebels, a total of 5,000 lives were lost and 3,000 prisoners were taken.

The rest of them all took advantage of the darkness and fled in embarrassment.

This war is called the Second Kokutai War. In this battle, the Hojo family lost more than 3,000 people, of which nearly 2,000 lives were contributed by the friends of the Edo people who had been beaten to death. The actual loss was more than 1,000 people at night.

Some, and quite a few, were killed by stray arrows fired by friendly forces. The net loss was far less than imagined.

After this battle, the rising momentum of the Satomi family was ruthlessly suppressed. Yuuki Masaru won. Yuuki Ming Dynasty's father and son died. As a result, the direct line of the Yuuki family was extinct. As a last resort, the Yuuki family genealogy was urgently separated from the mountain.

They wanted a son to be the governor of the house. This boy's original name was Koyama Haruto, but after his name was changed, he was called Yuuki Haruto.

The Hojo family used a victory to prove their strength and defend the Hojo family's absolute dominance in Kanto. They used powerful force to silently tell a truth. Although the Hojo family cannot defeat Echigo, there is still no problem in dealing with you.

Hojo Shige used his actions to prove that he is not a weakling who can be defeated by everyone. It is not a shame to be unable to defeat Saito Asanobu. He can be summed up in one sentence: "It's not that our army is incompetent, it's that the enemy is too cunning."

At the same time that the Hojo family won the victory, the construction of the Kaiji Kawasaki Hall was initially completed. The tall arrows and oars, thick walls, and the bones of countless peasants were buried to complete the difficult fortress transformation. Takeda Daisen entered the road and Shingen had a new hairstyle, refreshing.

The bald head saves you the trouble of taking care of your hair.

The war situation in Naka-Shinano became increasingly unfavorable. Baba Nobuharu was forced to send to the front line to resist the occupation before he could recover from his injuries. Minami-Shinano Ina-gun Dai Akiyama's friend continued to receive reports that the people of Minami-Shinano were unstable.

Bad news spreads every day. It can be said that there are three surprises in one day. The Takeda family is like a house with air leakage from all directions. No matter how much subsidies are given, it cannot cover up the declining predicament.

Tsuzakikan is in a state of depression, half of the shops are closed, and there are only a few pedestrians on the road. Occasionally, one or two people passing by will lower their heads and shrink their necks, and run past in a hurry. The whole city is plunged into an inexplicable panic. With the news,

Unfavorable news from the direction continued to come, and the temper of the Takeda family samurai also grew day by day. Fights and fights occurred frequently. There were also many ungrateful samurai who drew swords on their colleagues because of a few quarrels, causing many troubles.

Senseless murder.

Takeda Harunobu is very worried about this change. Recently, he often has trouble closing his eyes all night long. His eyes are red and bloodshot, and he has trouble falling asleep. Endless nightmares are waiting and haunting him every day.

For the first time, I dreamed of the endless night and dots of fire in Kawanaka Island, and the blood-red cavalry at dawn. The bloody spears slashed at him in an instant, and he would be awakened by a nightmare the next moment. Even if he forced himself to close his eyes, he could only remain half asleep and half awake.

A confused state.

The pain of the family governor was deeply felt by the family members. These days, the samurai could not eat, sleep or sleep, and their bodies were getting weaker and weaker. They were all harmed by that war. This battle knocked out the spirit of the Takeda family.

For the most part, the proud and confident Takeda family samurai in the past have become more extreme and violent. The endless violent incidents in Kai just show that the samurai are going through a difficult period of chaos, pain, and confusion. The goals they strive for are shattered, and they are unclear about their future.

Where to turn, the entire Takeda family fell into unprecedented chaos, which is something that the family members of the generation family did not want to see. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
