Chapter seven hundred and eighty fourth battle in Vietnam
Qili Laizhou sighed.
Now it seems that the best strategy is to remain on the defensive in Noto country for the time being and fully support the Etsuchu Ichikai clan.
She looked at Yori Teru and said.
"Lord Shimoma, Kaga Echichu has always been one with the clan. I am willing to send troops to support Echichu. Do you have a strategy to deal with the Uesugi Jimbo family?"
Shimo Laizhao smiled and said.
"I have already issued an order to the Ichigawa sect temples in Xinchuan County, ordering them to take advantage of the spring plowing before they finish, and try their best to withdraw from the temples in Tonami County.
It's best to persuade Shiina Yasuyin to give up Matsukura Castle and bring her back with her."
Qili Laizhou was thoughtful.
The Shiina territory in Shinkawa County is over, and it will never be able to withstand the attack from the Uesugi Jimbo family.
Yasuin Shiina betrayed his alliance and assassinated Terutora Uesugi, causing Yoshigan Shiba to be in danger at Matsukura Castle. Yoshigan Shiba was deprived of his duty as a guardian of Etsuchu because of Yoshigan Shiba, who was holding a sword.
Now Shiina Yasuyin has long been unable to control the retainers and territory, and can only barely maintain it with the help of the local Ichiko sect temple.
Now that the two allied armies are about to send troops, the chief minister of the gods deeply hates the Ichiko clan for supporting the Shiina family's resistance. The Ichiko clan temple in Shinkawa County cannot protect itself, so we might as well flee together.
Although Shiina Yasuyin's family business has declined, the Shiina family has been rooted in Yuezhong for hundreds of years and is somewhat die-hard. Bringing her back is still valuable.
Qili Laizhou looked at the concubines sitting down and said.
"Sugiura Gento, go back and prepare for mobilization and enter Ezhong first."
She bowed to Yoriteru Shimo again.
"After the army enters Yuezhong, please take care of the logistics. I have arranged everything for Noden at the Oyama Royal Square, and then I will lead the follow-up troops there."
Nanari Yorishu made up his mind and asked the leader of the Kitakaga Ikezu, Genjin Sugiura, to lead the Ikezu to send out troops first, and he led the Ni Corps of the Bokan faction to follow.
Yoriteru Shimoma knew that there would be heavy bleeding this time, and Kaga's army came to help, and most of the food and military supplies would fall on Yuezhong Yixiang Zong.
If the Wu family is greedy, the nuns will not be greedy? They will not be greedy if they tell the public?
When Teruhora Uesugi went to Luoki, he took money to clear his way through the Hokuriku Expressway. I asked everyone, who among the nuns was loyal to their duties? Who refused to accept the money?
This time Kaga Yixiangzong sent troops to Vietnam, he would definitely be reluctant to spend money and would eat locally.
Yoriteru Shimoma will not care about these trivial matters. As long as Yorishu Nanari is willing to come and the two armies are united, they will have the confidence to compete with the Uesugi Jinho coalition forces.
As for the losses in money, food and military supplies, the monasteries in various places have used the name of the sect to dominate for many years, and they have made an unknown amount of money. It is time to use it to do some serious things.
Shimoma Yoriteru said.
"Don't worry, I will instruct the local temple to raise the logistical supplies for Kaga's dispatch, so there will be no shortage of military expenses."
Qili Laizhou was very satisfied with her generous attitude, and the two of them exchanged a few polite words and finally settled the matter.
———
The Hokurikudo Ichikusou did not sit still and prepared to gather strength to compete with the Uesugi Jimho two coalition forces.
Time passes, and the busy work of spring plowing is completed.
Shiba Yoshigan came out of the battle with his sword, and ordered the Noto samurai to be summoned to his seat to explain why he had expelled Noto to guard Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna.
Uesugi Teruhora and Jinbo Nagaji responded to Shiba Yoshigan's call and mobilized to attack the rebellious Shiina Yasuin of Shinkawa County to clear the way for Odaisho to travel.
After receiving the letter from Yoshihiro Shiba, the Noto samurai family expressed their respect to the shogunate and sent people to Vietnam to meet with the imperial court.
The Shiina family's territory in Shinkawa County almost gave up resistance under the attack. It turned out that Shiina Yasuin had fled Matsukura Castle and his whereabouts were unknown.
The Shiina retainers had long since become disloyal, and now that the governor has disappeared, the retainers have surrendered one after another. The Uesugi Jimbo family appeases the local samurai family, while punishing the Ichiko sect temple who assisted the Shiina clan.
The remaining nuns who were lucky enough to stay were massacred, the monasteries were destroyed, the monastery leaders were confiscated, the believers were dispersed, and other sects and monasteries were also affected.
The Ji warriors who were so jealous didn't care which sect you belonged to. If you said you were from the Yixiang sect, you were the Yixiang sect. In a few days, both families had gained a lot.
Yoshihiro Shiba did not look at these human tragedies, nor could he control these greedy bastards. At this time, he was traveling with Kojima Town and had arrived at Toyama Castle, the home city of the Shinbo Nagasaki.
Terutora Uesugi was still sitting in Miyazaki Castle west of the Kurobe River, commanding subsequent troops to march into Vietnam and suppress local rebels.
This time, Echigo mobilized 30 troops and 6,000 troops, all mobilized by the Uesugi family. They were determined to swallow up the land west of the Kurobe River, and they did not want to let the Kanto Shogun take advantage of them.
Sibo Yiyin also followed their wishes. Except for Sibo Tongxin who was accompanying them, no other members of his tribe were brought with him.
The terrain of Vietnam is high in the south and low in the north. Many rivers from the Hida Mountains in the south flow northward into Toyama Bay.
At the beginning of spring, the ports along the Hokuriku Road had already thawed and opened. The logistics of the army came by sea along the coast. Only a few local farmers and soldiers were needed to enter and exit the river mouth to complete the supply.
The Hokuriku Road trade route instantly transformed into a logistics line, which was not only fast but also very low-cost, greatly increasing the advance speed of Uesugi's army.
Echu's deployment went very smoothly, and Uesugi Teruhora will arrive after consolidating the territory.
And Yoshigan Shiba, who had just entered Toyama Castle, was receiving compliments from the chief priest and Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna at the castle tower.
Yoshigan sat on the main seat, accompanied by the Kamao family. In addition to the two family governors of Jimbo Hatakeyama, there were also Kojima Shizhen and another unfamiliar Hime samurai.
It's been a year since we last saw each other, and the demeanor of the Chief Divine Protector looks a little tired from the vicissitudes of life. It can be seen that the Shiina family and the Yuezhong Ixiangzong teamed up this year to torment her.
When she was young and didn't know what to do, she vowed to suppress the Echigo family with her own strength, but now she still begged the Echigo army with a face full of shame.
The chief priest looked up at Shiba Yigen with a smile, feeling more and more awe in his heart. After not seeing him for a year, the appearance of this Odaisho became more youthful and youthful, and the traces of time seemed to be going back.
As soon as the imperial officer took action, the dilemma of Xinchuan County that had troubled her for a year was instantly solved. With the imperial sword order in hand, the Wu family of Xinchuan County was helpless and unable to resist the attack from both sides.
The Shiina family was deprived of their guardianship by the imperial government, and the Jinbo family was already the only guardian in Echu.
Terutora Uesugi was the commander of Kanto and the guardian of Echigo. He obeyed the shogunate's order from Yoshigan and went to Echichu, thus establishing a moral stance.
Fame may seem illusory, but it has the effect of softening the knees of the martial arts family. The resistance of Xinchuan County has almost disappeared, and the success is so smooth that the chief minister of the gods is panicked.
The shogunate has been in decline for many years, and the local samurai seem to respect it. The respect for the shogunate only exists in the stories of the samurai family that have been passed down orally from their ancestors.
But this time, the divine protector Changzhi personally felt the power contained in the title of the guardian system.
The direct descendant of Kawachi Genji has been the pillar of the samurai family for hundreds of years, and the Ashikaga Shogunate has ruled the world for two hundred years. Even if his strength is gone, he is still admired by samurai families all over the world.
As long as there are still warriors who are willing to bow their heads and give up resistance for them, this status is a force worthy of awe.
