In the mountains of Cheorwon County, the sister-in-law Tsuna's family also rode short Japanese horses, leading an army holding horse seals and flags high and wearing bamboo and iron leather armors, marching slowly because of the age.
On the road which has been in disrepair for a long time and is filled with potholes, I stopped from time to time to listen to the sound of wind in the mountains and forests, as well as the chirping of birds and the roar of apes.
His original name was Koheita Kawabe, and his ancestral home was Higashi-sando, Fuso Province, in Kawabe Village, Yamauchi Township, Uchida County, Shinshu (Shinano Province). Therefore, he was also born in Shinshu and was a member of the Yamauchi clan, a local feudal clan. Therefore, in
During a hunting trip by the Yamauchi clan, he was spotted by the young master because of his speed in picking up prey.
Therefore, he soon became a follower of the young master Yamauchi Yoshiharu. Then, because of a pair of iron legs that are particularly good at running, he continued his daily life in the Yamauchi family and the surrounding Shirakawa, Fujita and other famous landowners.
During the turmoil, he accomplished some hard work and small achievements, so he was given the name.
Later, a separate branch of the Kamigu clan in Pyeongseong Kyung came across the sea to marry the daughter of the Japanese king, and King Demyeong, who has continued to rule for hundreds of years. After the Tempo Rebellion, he learned that the territory was small and the disputes were frequent, and decided to unify the Fuso Domain for sixty years.
Most of the princes of the six states and the power of the vassal family went westward with all their strength to help the king (outer expansion).
Behind all of this, there is a corresponding historical background and historical origin. Since the Japanese royal family was in civil strife, and there were mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the Japanese clan was almost extinct. In the end, the only option was to ask the Shangguo University to
The Tang clan took over to settle the disputes. Following the eastward journey, there were a large number of accompanying ministers and tribesmen.
After pacifying and conquering most of Fusang, this generation also took advantage of the situation and divided the local territory into vassals to protect the new king's lineage. The immigrants and technology brought by these Tang princes who traveled east also made the local area a slave.
Between society and primitive clans, the backward economic model and productivity have developed rapidly.
Therefore, for Xiao Pingtai by the river, although rice is the exclusive property of the nobles above the countryside, land servants, and village chiefs, the daily wild vegetables grown in the barren mountainous areas are large roots and sweet potatoes, plus some miscellaneous cooking of rats, birds, and small animals.
It's sticky, but it's still manageable in most seasons, and there's still brown rice to eat during military service.
Of course, everything has its own pros and cons. As the price of more than a hundred years of development, Fuso has been able to multiply more people in a relatively narrow land with many mountains and little land. In the past dynasties, princes and vassals competed for mountains, forests, pastures,
Amid the disputes over water sources and farm boundaries, the hierarchical Heijo Kyoto is also pregnant with conflicts and crises.
In the end, it led to several palace changes and turmoil in Qingyu, Guangli, and Tianbao. Until King Deming came to power amidst the blood, and reestablished the authority of the royal court; at this time, news came from China that something happened in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Dramatic changes and turmoil arose; for a time, the shackles that had long restrained the princes and vassals of Jiuzhou and Yanbian were loosened.
Therefore, when King Deming, with the support of the Yuan and Ping branches and strong external support, announced in Pingchengjing that he would do his best to help King Qin and protect the imperial line of the Tang Dynasty. Although the ancestors of the Yamauchi family were local
The Tu people who surrendered were from the old feudal vassal, but they did not hesitate to stand in the camp of the new royal family headed by King Deming.
Therefore, in the following ten years of continuous unification battles that swept across Fuso's five regions, seven provinces, sixty-six states, most princes, and vassals; the Yamauchi clan took advantage of the situation and annexed many small and medium-sized local vassals nearby, and defeated others who took advantage of the situation.
Then he became a coveted person and became the dominant powerful feudal lord in the ten counties of Shinshu.
Then, in disguise, he bypassed the Imperial Secretary Tachibana Anjixiong, who was appointed by the imperial court, and brought all the manors, pastures and forests under the names of nobles in the capital under the semi-forced and semi-coercive condition of managing and converting the output on his behalf.
Next. In this way, a vassal army of tens of thousands, equipped with foot and cavalry, can be maintained and supported.
Therefore, when the General Office of King Geun was set up in Pyeongseong, while instigating rebels in Baekje, Goryeo and other places in Silla's homeland, he ordered troops to be wiped out and refused to use the east road of King Geun's army. Almost all the Yamauchi family
He spared no effort to send more than 8,000 troops and became one of the top three who landed in the first round.
Of course, the southern part of Xinghaidongdao, which has been enjoying peace for a long time but has been depleted of weapons; all kinds of harassment and poor performance from the official office to the local government have also caused these perennial disputes and conflicts, and the Fuso clan is accustomed to endure hardships from top to bottom.
, unimaginable. Therefore, the Yamauchi family who landed first also benefited greatly.
Not only did they capture the population, property, and weapons from the wealthy areas along the Haidong coast, but they also gained the status and authority to dominate the Dongshan Road all the way, and a dozen or so small and medium-sized feudal families arrived later, forming a coalition of tens of thousands of troops. From then on.
When Fuso went to Haidong, her sister Tsuna's family, who was accustomed to fighting bad battles, also had great luck and made great achievements one after another.
Not only did he finish the whole battle without any illness or injury, but he was able to serve as a servant from a horse to become a captain with swords and soldiers in front of the emperor, leading 300 swordsmen and 800 spearmen; he can be called one of the few in the world.
General. What he can rely on is the sharp perception and reaction he has developed in the constant conflicts between feudal clans.
Therefore, he is not known for his bravery and military skills, but he can always lead his troops to retreat at the moment before crises and threats come. Relying on the iron feet and quick reactions honed during his early years of hunting in the mountains to make a living;
In the end, he was able to stand out from the crowd of colleagues who were fighting fiercely or making sudden advances.
Therefore, he is often able to maintain his strength in chaotic battles. Not only is he deeply loved and respected by his subordinates, but he is also the young master who guides him. Today's Yamauchi Domain Army/Shinshu Army General Yamauchi Yoshiharu has repeatedly been entrusted with important tasks.
.However, just last year, the Yamauchi family, which was making rapid progress, encountered an accident and setback.
As the son of the general, Yamauchi Yoshiho, the acting and leading horse (vanguard) general of Ina County, disappeared while leading a team of elite soldiers to pursue the fleeing remnants of the Kaitō Office. It was not until more than a month ago that any spies came to Harayama
The county discovered buried traces of the battle, as well as remains and armor used for public display.
However, as the general who lost his beloved son, Yamauchi Yoshiharu was in Sangzhou and endured it for more than a month. After constantly mobilizing troops and supplies and inquiring about information, he obtained the secret of Wangji in Haidong.
, King Qin’s Office of the General agreed to join forces and mobilize the troops of the Haedong Domain who had surrendered, and the Baekje Army was auxiliary.
As the pioneer of the Yamauchi family, the Anekoji Tsuna family led this group, including more than 3,000 motley crew members; they played more of a bait and test role deep into the enemy's territory, hoping to induce more local resistance.
Strength. As long as he fights for a long time, a large group of people will rush in and crush him.
This is also one of the main tactics used by the Shinshu clan led by the Yamauchi clan since they entered Kaitō, to first show the enemy weakness and then strike later. Among the three strong clans that first landed in Kaitō, the Yamauchi clan was responsible for raiding the entire state.
In this way, they lured out Jin Haijing's defenders, wiped them out, and then easily captured the city.
But now, he has not encountered any decent resistance along the way, except for the endless so-called local volunteers and the numerous Red Pants Party members running around. Not even some apparently newly built villages and wooden villages in the mountains. , were completely unattended, or were abandoned after half-repair.
This also makes the Tsuna family of Anokojiji feel a little uneasy. You must know that the General Qinwangfu, who leads the Fuso coalition, is temporarily unable to go all out to seize the remaining territory in Haidong due to the continued resistance in the states in the southeast of Haidong. Both the Maitreya Sect and the Baekje rebels have special channels for transmitting news.
Not to mention the spies and secretly controlled spies placed among the soldiers and civilians who fled north; and even some sources of information can be obtained from the hands of some feudal lords in the North who are trying to find another way out. Therefore, The Yamauchi family, who were at the forefront of the offensive, had actually already received news that someone was integrating the Northland.
However, the southern states have already been plundered, and the coalition forces of the various vassals, which are eager to digest their respective gains, are no longer so motivated to continue going north. In addition, their private interests and grievances are intertwined, and they are not very united. If it were not for the Great The general's office directly gives orders and drives, otherwise most people just do their own thing.
Therefore, even if someone gets multiple corroborating news, the prince of the prison country who escaped from death in the Haidong Palace is now raising his banner in the north, recruiting troops and winning over the vassals from various states, thinking that they can jointly fight against the approaching enemy. Fuso's army. However, the General's Mansion's desire to coordinate the follow-up strategy is not something that can be done in a short while.
This time, had it not been for the accidental death of Yamauchi Yoshiho, the son of the general, in the north, there would have been no way to gather so many troops in a short period of time. However, as the spies became more frequent and closer, ; The more news there is about the Prince of the Supervisory State and Beidi Xingtai, the more disturbing it becomes.
Because, in just over half a year, the other party has successfully eliminated internal dissidents and taken over the public domain of the three prefectures of Kitahara, Han and Huizhou; and gained the loyalty and compliance of most of the feudal lords. Then they took over Kitahara Kyoto. As a barrier, they defeated the 100,000 Maitreya Sect entrenched in Zhongyuan Capital. Something was wrong.
So a few days ago, news came out from the internal affairs of Zhongyuan Capital that there seemed to be civil strife in Xingtai for power. As a result, the prince of the country had not shown up for many days. General Yoshiharu Yamauchi, who was preparing for the war in Shahuo Town, Sangzhou, ignored The troops from all walks of life who had not yet completed their assembly did not hesitate to issue the order to attack first.
They just want to take advantage of the opportunity to destroy or defeat the existence of the Kita Gyoudai. As the top priority, the subordinates of Tsunaya Aikoji and Koheta Kawabe have already made preparations. After several hard battles or arduous tug of war, psychological preparation.
Immediately, he squinted his eyes and looked at the mountain pass in the distance, which suddenly opened up like a trumpet. He thought secretly in his heart: If he wants to set up an ambush, this is the last chance. However, in The detective horses rushed back and forth amidst the smoke and dust, but they brought no reports of anyone and no discovery.
He was confused and doubtful until he encountered the first village in the wilderness; he saw a small group of local feudal representatives standing at the intersection to greet him, and then he got a preliminary answer.
