Daxiong Chaoxiu and his group controlled about 50,000 shi of territory in China and Vietnam.
Today, Tomi Castle, which belongs to Yiyin, is on the middle line between China and Vietnam, and the area to the north is the sphere of influence of Daxiong Chaohide.
He is determined to win over Daxiong Chaoxiu, who is also smart and does things rightly.
The two sides hit it off immediately and settled on the basic plan of the Shiba family's first stronghold in Kanto.
In this case, Yiyin did not hesitate to reveal his true feelings to let her know.
"The leaders of China and Vietnam are too proud. If they don't show their abilities, they will always cause trouble in the future.
This battle is to frustrate the spirit of the Yangbei people and also to frighten the unruly Shangshan people.
You have to work hard and make it clear to your Wu family that whether you will have a good life in the future will depend on whether they are fierce enough this time.
If you are really a useless person, you can find a place to commit seppuku on your own. It would be a good thing if you don’t have to come out and be humiliated."
Daxiong Chaoxiu understood clearly that what Yutai said was so explicit, and he really regarded her as one of his own.
She kowtowed to the ground and said decisively.
"I will go back and organize the army to prepare for war. I will fight to the death and not retreat. If anyone flinches, I will kill myself.
If we all collapse and lose your face, I will commit suicide to atone for my sins."
After Da Xiong Chao Xiu finished speaking, he left.
Yoshiyin looked at Yamazaka Yukimori and Shima Shengmeng and said.
"Yamanaka Hime is responsible for the internal defense, and Shima Hime's entire army is our main formation.
Daxiong Chaoxiu has a fighting spirit, but her subordinates are all followers, and their combat power is sparse and unreliable.
Listen to my orders tomorrow and be careful."
"Hi!"
Yoshigan said politely to Uizumi Nobutsuna.
"Thanks for your hard work, Sword Master Shangquan went out to fight with me."
"The emperor is polite, but I am frightened, and I am willing to be driven by His Highness."
After explaining some details, Yiyin asked everyone to prepare.
Before dark, news came from outside the city. The Yangbei people arrived outside Changwei City one after another and set up camp for repairs.
Yiyin sent an order to all the ministries to prepare for battle tomorrow, and first gave Yangbei Zhong a warning.
———
Yangbei Zhongzhong Station.
Before they could gain a firm foothold, they received a declaration of war from Tomi Castle. The Ji warriors were surprised and launched a shogunate military meeting to discuss the matter.
Nakajo Fujisaki said.
"There are white flags hanging at the top of Toruo Castle with the Ashikaga family crest on them, which is very strange.
The situation is unclear, so it is better to postpone the attack and wait for all parties to gather before making calculations."
Her statement was not intended to help Uesugi Teruhu buy time.
The Yangbei people are still one. Regardless of whether this rebellion is successful or not, the fighting power of this group must be exerted.
If one party succeeds in becoming independent, she will also be the beneficiary.
If she fails, Yang Beizhong's strong combat power is a taboo for the superiors, so she can be sold at a higher price and have the capital to betray her teammates.
Personal value is always attached to the group. Even if you become a traitor, you still hope that the value of betraying the team is huge so that you can obtain more benefits.
The strong confidence and aggressiveness displayed by Tochio Castle, coupled with the inexplicable Ashikaga family crest on the top of the castle, made Nakajo Fujimo feel uneasy, and there was nothing wrong with being more cautious.
The general in charge of the Yangbei rebellion this time, Honjo Nomcho, did not see it that way.
she said.
"Our army has just arrived at Tonglewei City with great momentum and it is time for the three armies to use their lives.
The Nagao family in the mansion will be slow to respond because the family leader has left the country. If we don't seize the time to capture Tobi Castle and wait for Kametsu to react, the big thing will be over."
As he said this, he looked at Nakajo Fuji with dissatisfaction.
If Teruhora Uesugi had not left and the Takeda family had not been behind it, this rebellion would never have been so powerful.
The opportunity is in your hand now. If you don't seize it, it will be difficult to turn around again in the future.
This is related to the collective interests of Yangbeizhong, and some of Nakajo Tengzi's actions are really shameful. But out of scruples, she is unable to deal with villains.
At this time, Nakajo Toshiji came to preach caution again. If the delay continued, once Uesugi Teruhora returned to the country and came to help, everything would be over.
Although there are many fields in Shimotsu, Echigo's mineral resources and green hemp profits are all controlled by the Fuchu Nagao family.
It also eroded China and Vietnam, had many allies, and was far more powerful than the Yangbei Zhong.
If it were a head-on confrontation, Yangbeizhong would definitely not be able to defeat the Nagao family in Fuchu. Otherwise, they would not have had to swallow their anger before.
The best approach is to capture Tonglewei City quickly and hold the city tightly until the busy farming season arrives, when all parties are exhausted and negotiate, and exchange for Xiyue's independence with a favorable situation.
As for the other rebels, I really don't like them.
Ohuma Asahide's troops were sparse in combat power, Nagao Masaki had few talents, and Hojo Takahiro was just a faggot who took advantage of the opportunity to seek benefits, not to mention not worth mentioning.
Echigo was young, and everyone was a fellow villager. Everyone had a clear understanding of who had what kind of virtue.
If Yangbeizhong wants to succeed independently, it can only rely on itself and cannot rely on anyone else.
Wait for those companies to surround you? Who knows if you will get it if you wait?
Honjo Mancho and Nakajo Toshi have opposite opinions. This is a common thing and every family in Yangbei has long been used to it.
Only this time, they sided with Honjo Nobunaga.
On the one hand, because Nakajo Fujitsu betrayed Yangbeizhong's interests and gained Uesugi Teruhora a lot of benefits, he had already made everyone jealous.
On the other hand, Yangbei Zhong maintains their own martial prowess, which is their proudest asset. When did Zhongyue Zhong dare to challenge Yangbei Zhong?
We must fight! Fight to convince her!
In the Echigo Plain, where roads are blocked by heavy snow every year, the samurai who have struggled to survive for hundreds of years are all brave men, and the Yangbei Zhong are the best among them. This is their glory.
Field battle, who is afraid of whom, come on!
Nakajo Fujitsu was just trying to persuade her. She really didn’t think the Yangbei guilds could defeat the Sino-Vietnamese martial arts families in Tomei City.
Since a fight can improve morale and defeat the enemy, she just yelled a few words and followed the crowd.
Seeing Zhuji's high morale and military spirit, our village fanchang laughed and said.
"After breakfast tomorrow, let's give these Sino-Vietnamese fools some brains so that they won't dare to compete with me from Yangbei again."
The concubines cheered and went back to repair themselves, waiting for dawn.
———
When the first ray of sunlight appeared on the horizon, the two peaceful camps began to make noises.
The smoke curling up from the cooking pots is the sound of cooking pots.
Outside Tomei City, Yiyin established the shogunate of the main formation, and the heads of various families came to pay their respects.
He said to Honjo Minoru.
"Let the Nagao family of Ueda display their flag, and you will protect the city and the left flank of our army."
"Hi!"
"Daxiong Chaoxiu, the flag of your command has also been brightened, take the lead for our Chinese army.
You will control all the schools in China and Vietnam, and you will be responsible for the right wing."
"Hi!"
Yiyin meant to let the other side see the rebellious situation between the two families and try to dampen their spirits.
Honzhuang Sanai and Daxiong Chaoxiu are the chiefs of China and Vietnam, and it is proper for them to each hold one.
This is actually a euphemism.
"The Yangbei people have always been unruly. Even if they know that they are alone, I'm afraid they can't shake their morale."
Yiyin smiled and nodded.
"I see."
After studying Echigo for so long, Yoshigan has a rough understanding of the temperaments of the various forces.
By doing this, he can improve the opponent's morale. Even if it fails, it doesn't matter.
It was just to tell the other party that the military strength of Tongwei City was no longer inferior to that of Yangbei Zhong, to prevent the other party from misjudgment.
In a domestic war, it is difficult to have the will to fight a bloody battle, but what if the other side is lucky?
At this time, you can't hide it, but you have to show off your troops and use enough momentum to make people think clearly and not make mistakes.
Yoshigan actually hopes that both sides will not die too many people in this battle. Too much bloodshed will deepen hatred and will not be beneficial to the integration of Echigo's country.
If the situation is evenly matched, it will be more advantageous to be afraid of both sides.
He ordered.
"Wait another three quarters. After each family has finished their breakfast, they will immediately form formations to prepare for battle."
"Hi!"
The princess warriors bowed and accepted the order, and went back to prepare.
Yiyin said to the troops in this formation.
"The island is victorious, lead the people who are of one mind and follow me to the front of the battle.
Fortunately, the mountains are prosperous, the straight rivers are continuous, and the springs are full of integrity. Come with me."
"Hi!"
When the two sides opened up their formation, Honjo Nobunaga felt something was wrong, and Samurai Ji reminded him.
"Why is there a big bear Asahide flag in the opposing formation? The Ueda Nagao family is also there?"
Nakajo Fujisou narrowed his eyes and said.
"There must be an accident that we don't know about. At a glance, the enemy's military strength is no longer inferior to ours."
Yangbei Zhong came here to prepare fifteen troops, and the formation formed by Tomei City seemed to be outnumbered by their own troops, which made Nakajo Tengzi want to retreat again.
Honjo Shigenaga glared at her, "Before the battle, you actually lowered my morale. You are really a bastard."
She shouted loudly to those around her.
"These guys who started fighting in China and Vietnam defected to the side of Tongwei City.
Treachery! How can we still be afraid of these scum!"
Think about it, all the Ji warriors, yes!
Suddenly they were filled with righteous indignation, and they were all gearing up to teach the bastards who betrayed their alliance a lesson.
Seeing that his morale was rising instead of falling, Honjo Nogicho nodded with satisfaction, observed the enemy's formation, and gave an order.
"We will engage the enemy later and attack the enemy's right flank. The flags there are in a mess, and they are all Chinese and Vietnamese flags.
As long as they are defeated, Toromi City will definitely retreat and defend, and this battle will be considered won."
She seems to be reckless, but in fact she has a delicate mind, otherwise this banker would not be able to thrive in her hands.
She knew all the Chinese and Vietnamese families very well, and she found the weak point of Tongwei City's military strength just by observing the formation and flags.
It was impossible to defeat the enemy in a joint battle. She still knew the strength of Honjo Minoru and Saito Asanobu's troops.
Now that the numbers of both sides were equal, the fight was really fierce. Even if Yang Beizhong won, it would be a miserable victory.
This result was difficult for our village to accept, so it would be better to attack the Zhongyue people on the right who were weak in fighting will and force the Tomei City army to retreat on their own.
It improves morale without losing too many troops.
However, the siege battle that followed was troublesome. The number of people was equal. How to capture Tomei City?
