Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When the war on the south bank of the Chikuma River suddenly broke out, another military meeting was held in Asahiyama Castle, but this time the military meeting seemed to be different. In the assessment room was a familiar military map with small little dots inserted all over it.  Everyone knew what the flag meant. Everyone stared at the map inexplicably and soon discovered many abnormalities.  "Why did the flag of Suda-den become blue?" "No! The flag of Amamiya also turned blue!" Blue is the color of Takeda's flag, red is the color of Kira's flag, and red is the color of Kira's flag.  The people of Shinano Province must know what it means to be blue, so they are very nervous and angry. They are clamoring to find Kiragi for an explanation. Things are easy to handle if someone takes the lead. Obviously nothing will happen to them.  Most of the Shinano people also started making noises, seemingly intending to form a group to scare the Kira family.  After a while, a handsome-looking young man came over holding a large pile of letters, and then Kira Yoshiki slowly walked over: "Hey, everyone is here! It just so happens that I have something to say. I've been  But I have discovered a lot of interesting things, let¡¯s share them with everyone, Iwakurumaru, let¡¯s start!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Kawada Iwaksurumaru read loudly: ¡°Since the Kira army entered the Japanese army, I have officially announced it.  The Shinano samurai family are all eagerly hoping that the Takeda Army will drive out the Kira Army and return Shinano to a peaceful paradise" "Nani?" The samurai in the hall suddenly raised their voices, and more than 80% of the Kira and Nagao family retainers showed angry expressions.  No one could have imagined that they would become an intruder, and the Takeda family would become the master of Shinano. Saito sneered at Nobu: "When did Shinano become the Takeda family? Was it canonized by the shogunate?" Hosokawa Fujitaka had a gloomy face.  He glanced coldly at the Shinano people in the hall: "Some people are really shameless!" As a member of the Ashikaga family.  The third officer leads the Hosokawa family.  Hosokawa Shita Izumi is the current governor of the Izumi family. No matter what the reason is, Hosokawa Fujitaka wants to protect the reputation of the shogunate. In his early years, he studied the secrets of Japanese poetry with Sanjo Nishi Kojo and learned the secrets of Waka through "ancient and modern teachings". He was abducted by Kira Yoshitoki as a retainer in the Kira family just after he left school.  , and then took advantage of the relationship between the Kira family and the shogunate court to show off his singing skills, and quickly became the best waka singer in the world.  Since coming to Tokuni Echigo, I have been busy with official duties and have not had time to hold waka gatherings. However, ministers who travel to Hokuriku and Uyo always come to Naoetsu to meet with him to discuss waka techniques.  Not only that, Hosokawa Fujitaka also had profound attainments in Chinese studies, Chinese poetry, and literature. Nagao Kagetora¡¯s mentor, Mitsuyu Amuro, also exchanged letters with him to discuss and exchange academic issues.  After arriving in Echigo for just over a year, his reputation has already spread to Echigo, Shinano, Ueno, Etchu, Dewa, Mutsu and other places like wings, and he is considered to be the top cultural figure in the entire Hokuriku Kanto.  .  "Let me call their names! Those who are called must remember to stand up!" Kira Yoshishi took the letters and read them one by one with a smile: "Amamiya Ieji, Suda Nobumasa, Yashiro Masakuni, Shimazu Taitada,  Ashida Nobumori, Hatada Sadaga, Akasawa Tsuruhisa! " "One, two, three, four, five the twenty-five families! What should I do with the Takeda family, the twenty-five wealthy families in Northern Shinano?  "With this question, the twenty-five Shinano samurai suddenly became the target of public criticism. Not only the samurai of the Kira family and the Nagao family looked at each other angrily, but even the local anti-Wakeda faction in Shinano hated them. Kurita Kanan looked downcast.  He paused and thought for a while, but the big idea was that he had long seen that this guy would have trouble sooner or later if he had a backbone in his head.  Sure enough, something happened today.  Kurita Tsurugu burst into laughter, pointed at his compatriot Kurita Kanyasu and shouted loudly: "He who forgets his ancestors and betrays his ancestors. He followed the Echigo bandits to Hokuriku regardless of the opposition of the superiors and subordinates, and abandoned the thousand-year-old foundation of Zenkoji Temple.  Give all the land and city to the Nagao family, you are a villain!" This curse stunned Kurita Kanyasu, and also stunned the samurai in the hall. Seeing this situation, Kurita Tsurugu shouted proudly!  Said: "We did not betray! It is natural to seek refuge with the Takeda family. None of the people in Shinano are blind. Everyone can see that the Takeda family is unstoppable. Why can't we surrender to the Takeda family? Why?" "So you betrayed  Can you abandon your inner righteousness as a warrior because of your unstoppable momentum? It's so majestic and majestic!" Ji Liangyi applauded him gently, the smile on his face gradually faded, and a hint of terror flashed in his eyes.  The cruelty.  "The Daiyi of the Takeda family? What's the use of that thing? Tell me what's the use? Can you take care of food and drink? Who helped us when the Takeda family invaded Shinano? Why shouldn't we join the Takeda family now? Don't use your shogunate stuff  Fooling people, what does the shogunate have? What does the righteousness of the Wu family mean? In this troubled time of the Warring States, having soldiers and money is the most important thing. Everything else is nonsense!" Kurita Tsurugu feels that today's situation is surprisingly good, especially when standing among hundreds of people.  Human evaluation room?Yelling loudly at the so-called "famous samurai family" felt so fulfilling. When he got carried away, he pointed at the Ashikaga two banners behind Yoshitoki Kira and said: "What's so great about the shogunate? Genji of the samurai family."  ? It's just yesterday's flowers. Today's troubled times are the era of unknown samurai like us. Only heroes like Dr. Takeda Daisen can lead us to conquer the territory of Noda. There are countless glory and wealth to be enjoyed by joining the Takeda family. Are you still here?  "Are you stubborn?" "You just pointed at my Ashikaga family's imperial flag?" Kira Yoshito's face was as cold as ice, and he stood up and shouted: "Take this traitor down!"  Hundreds of swords flashed, surrounding the twenty-five people. A few ungrateful people fought back against the master, but Watanabe Takatsuna, Saito Asanobu, Honjo Shigenaga, Hojo Takahiro and others swarmed up and captured them all.  , the people of Shinano were frightened and at a loss for a moment. All these changes were so fast that people passed by without having time to think. They caught a glimpse of the Echigo samurai on the side looking at them with unkind expressions. These people wisely chose to remain silent.  "You can say betrayal so shamelessly. I think you are so stupid that your brains are burned off!" Kira Yoshi walked up to Kurita Tsurugu and looked at the guy who was struggling in pain on the tatami with his hands twisted behind his back and sneered.  Said: "It is your rebelliousness that caused the century-old foundation of the Ashikaga family to be destroyed in one day! Do you remember who gave you the land Chikyo? Who gave you the status of a samurai far beyond farmers and merchants? You have all forgotten. All of them.  Forget! You are a bunch of ungrateful and rebellious people! Your ancestors will be shamed by your today's shame! You are the black sheep of my Wu family. "The most unforgivable thing is that you are the black sheep of my family."  , You dare to desecrate the imperial flag of the Ashikaga family of Kawachi Genji! It is an unforgivable crime!" Kira Yoshitoki's eyes seemed to be gnawing, and his ferocious aura made the judgment of this midsummer cold.  Nine cold winters.  The people in Shinano who were listening were so frightened by these words that they were sweating profusely. The twenty-five people were even more unbearable. Their whole bodies were shaking like chaff. Several people fainted on the spot, and some even had an unconcealable stench from their bodies.  Such a shameful performance made the Kira family samurai even more disgusted.  "When I, the direct descendant of the Genji clan in Kawachi, was born in Ashikaga, Sususaburo Yoshihide, in the name of being the head of the Gen clan of the samurai family, I deprived twenty-five of you of the samurai family status. Your ancestors can be traced back five hundred years, but one of them is a samurai clan.  The samurai family's share should be taken away, Bodhi Temple should be demolished, and the samurai family's certification documents should be burned. It should be classified as a treason of the samurai family and should not be pardoned by EMI!" "Kurita Tsurugu's mouth and nose were spurted with blood, but his head was held tightly and he could only speak one word at a time.  He yelled: Whydothisthe shogunatehasn'thadsuchapunishment!  . It¡¯s because the shogunate is too kind, so kind that it makes you rebels feel at ease. But everything changes from today on!¡± Kira Yoshi raised his head proudly and said coldly: ¡°Because my name is Yuanyi.  Time! I am the highest law enforcer on behalf of the Ashikaga family in Hokuriku! You have violated the grave crime of rebellion in the Genji code, and I will punish you, the rebellious retainers, on behalf of the Genji family! Remember this flag!  Dignity cannot be violated. Repent your sins after you go to hell! " "Sinners, you will never be reincarnated!" Ji Liangyoshi shouted: "Come on!  The five of them were dragged down and hanged. They set up a cross and nailed the rebel leader Kurita Tsuruhisa outside the gate, wailing to death!  After walking out of the assessment room, they also knew what the so-called hanging and cross were about. Hans of Nassau, a Teutonic Knight, often talked to them about religious stories.  Not long after, twenty-four gallows and a cross were erected outside Asahiyama Castle. The citizens of the nearby castle town were too frightened to come near as they watched the twenty-five nobles being hanged, especially a samurai who was nailed.  The constant wailing was very frightening, and soon a notice was posted next to these sinners, listing their sins.  Of course, it also includes severe punishments such as destroying the origin of the samurai and being unpardoned for a lifetime. In the bland retellings of the samurai, the townspeople can still feel the horror between the lines. For ancient Japanese society, death is not the most terrifying thing.  , but the terrible thing is that death still carries the sins of life and cannot be forgiven.  The sin of not being able to be reborn in the paradise world but to be cast into hell forever is too great. The townspeople couldn't help but sigh for these twenty-five people. If they offend anyone, they have to offend the Ashikaga family. Even the illiterate people know "Taipei Chronicles"  It tells the story of Ashikaga Takauji who left Kyushu with a white flag and rode twenty horses into Kyoto to conquer the world in one fell swoop.  This is the credit of the monkey musicians who travel through the streets and go deep into the countryside. Dramas such as the Genpei War and the Southern and Northern Dynasties are people's favorite dramas.The story of Minamoto Yoshitsune and Shizugozen has deceived the tears of many ignorant girls.  No matter from the perspective of the secular understanding of the samurai family or the blind trust in the shogunate, it is understandable to punish some criminal officials who desecrated the shogunate. The only controversy is whether the punishment is too harsh. Many samurai families said they could not understand: "Why do you need to do this?"  With such a severe punishment, didn¡¯t the Echigo Military Guard forgive many people?¡± After dealing with the twenty-five samurai, Kira Yoshitsune had to explain: ¡°What happened in Echigo happened before he became the acting king.  Moreover, they did not have any internal connections with Takeda, nor did they verbally insult the family or insult the majesty of the shogunate. They took the initiative to repent and ask for forgiveness. The family wanted to spare them. " He knew that the punishment just now was too severe. There were some among these twenty-five people.  Many of them are relatives of the Shinano samurai in the hall. The so-called destruction of their origins can only be traced back a few generations at most, because their clan or branch families are seated in the hall, and the pursuit of destruction can only wipe out the ancestors of the condemned person.  Just drop it.  "The so-called death of the body and the destruction of the clan means that these twenty-five people died at once.  Their clans also turned into meteors and slowly disappeared.  One of their members will be absorbed by their respective branches.  All the retainers will also be taken away, and there is nothing to be afraid of if their identities are destroyed. Even the direct relatives of these twenty-five people can be adopted as adopted sons and continue to live with another identity.  After thinking about this logic, Shinano's samurai also kept their mouths shut. The death of twenty-five people heralded an earth-shaking change in Shinano. In the future, if anyone interludes with Takeda, they will have to weigh their own weight. What can the Takeda family do?  What you give is more important than your family's future, wealth and life. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from Shinano people.  Some people even began to plan to annex the inheritance of the guilty ministers. As for these people's secret thoughts, Kira Yoshi always saw it in his eyes and sneered: "My family will go out to Hachimanhara to fight the Takeda family. The one of the guilty ministers,  The retainers went out to Kawanaka Island to wash away the shame of their weaknesses, so let¡¯s fight with both hands! The surviving samurai allowed them to change their Miao characters and become my retainers of the Kira family.¡±  I didn't catch it, it's just that no one dared to complain when Kira Yoshitsune was still in power.  "Everyone, please remember! Merits and military fame should be won from the horse. The centuries-old reputation of the samurai family was not established by relying on subordinates to defeat superiors or betrayal! What you want is in Hachimangahara. Take it back from the Takeda family in a dignified way.  Come on!" "I'll understand!"  On Chasu Mountain, which is more than ten kilometers west of Asahiyama Castle, the flags are flying in the Takeda Army camp.  A team of ashigaru carefully wiped their weapons and armor. They were making preparations before the war. Cleaning up the house and wiping the weapons and armor could effectively relieve the tension before the war. This was a secret passed down by the veterans of the Takeda family.  In the distance, a small load-carrying team was handing over grain and grass. The peasants escorting the grain and grass hid in the shade of the trees to enjoy the moment of coolness. Several of the monks stared at the scorching sun and took stock of the grain and grass handed over. It didn't take long for them to feel hot.  They were sweating profusely, and the mountains of grain and rice piled up behind them needed to be sealed one by one, and the warehouses had to be protected against fire and theft to prevent insects and rats from eating them. They were often busy from dawn to midnight.  In the center of the camp is a huge military tent. There are hundreds of red-armored warriors guarding the tent. This is the command center of the Takeda Army, which is related to the victory or defeat of the tens of thousands of troops. It is different from the scorching heat outside the tent.  Unbearably, the atmosphere in the tent was as cold as winter. Dozens of warriors sat in circles. Sitting at the highest position was Harunobu Takeda, the general of the army.  Takeda Harunobu was in a very bad mood. He never expected that Yukitaka Sanada would be beaten so hard that he threw away his armor and fled in panic. In his impression, this situation had not happened to the Takeda Army for a long time. The last disastrous defeat was four years ago.  The stone collapsed. Ever since that defeat awakened the impatient Takeda Harunobu, he has never been defeated in the past four years.  The military quality of the Sanada family's main force is not much worse than that of the main force of the Takeda army. They are all Shinano people who have been fighting for many years. They were beaten to the point where they were unable to fight back. Who would have thought that Tadashi Masaya, who had rarely been defeated, could  He stumbled, and bad premonitions came to him crazily, making him angry and helpless.  "Destroyed the Sanada army with almost no damage? Isn't this a joke?" Iito Toromasa stroked his moustache and asked doubtfully: "When did the Sanada bomb become so fragile? Did I, Toromasa, hear wrongly?" "The intelligence should be  That's right, you can rest assured about your ability to penetrate." Masaru Komai rubbed his temples and thought hard. The samurai in the military tent also had Atobe Nobuaki, Nagasaka Mitsuken and others, as well as the Takeda clan.  He seemed to be thinking too, but there was always a hint of ridicule in his eyes. This look made him feel very uncomfortable, because he had been hurt by this look before.  "You old-fashioned guys, do you look down on us, those of us from different generations? Little do you know that my lord is tired of you!" KomaiMasatake's eyes only stayed on Imai Nobuura's face for a moment, and then immediately turned to the other direction, just in time to see Kasuga Torasuna, Baba Nobuharu, Kudo Yunaga, Iitomi Masakei and other new generation members sitting on the edge of the military tent.  Also thinking hard.  Iitomi Komasa squinted his eyes and looked at the important ministers, such as Takeda Nobushige, Takeda Noburen, Iichi Noburyu, Oyamada Masatatsu and other Shinichimen and Shodai who were promoted and re-appointed by Takeda Harunobu. They didn't say anything, so he tried to say: "Sanada Dan looks at me squarely.  The Takeda family's strategy is child's play, this crime is not a small one!" The powerful power of Kira Chibe made him realize that he had made a mistake in his calculations. Now is not the time to hold him accountable. Takeda Harunobu thought in annoyance: "The main force of Kira's army is much stronger than expected!  According to my prediction, if the special forces attacking Kaijin Castle are lost and the protection of the flanks is lost Liangdao! " At the same time, Takeda Harunobu's expression suddenly changed.  Komai Masatake seems to have thought about the same problem.  There are a few others who have thought of this possibility.  Kudo Yunaga exclaimed: "Shiozaki Castle and Yashiro Castle may be in danger!" Iito Toramasa jumped up in fear and shouted: "Lord, let me, Toramasa, personally lead the army to support!" "I'm afraid it's too late.  ¡± said Komai Masatake.  "What do you mean? What do you mean it's too late?" Iito Toromasa was very angry. He had reason to believe that this person was seeking revenge because he had ridiculed Komai Masatake more than ten years ago. In his opinion, this person was a typical example.  hypocrite.  Because one ridicule has held a grudge for more than ten years, so he has been tripped up by this guy for more than ten years. Most of the suggestions put forward by Iito Homasa will be blocked by him. Now he proposes while the big guy doesn't react.  Even when he went out to fight, he still interrupted.  He was not allowed to get a great opportunity to make meritorious deeds. It was simply abominable!  Komai Masatake didn't care too much about Iito Toromasa's expression, and after a while he sorted it out and said: "Judging from the Kira army's military strategy, it is probably that they have made an attack plan targeting their own grain and grass arteries, and they are currently sending troops to support rashly.  It is easy to encounter an interception and surprise attack by the opponent's Chibei. In order to prevent a surprise attack, the number of special forces sent should not be less than 3,000. If there are too many troops to rescue Shiozaki Castle, Murakami Gikiyo's team will retreat backwards to confront the enemy forces in Asahiyama Castle.  Let¡¯s join together. What should we do if we jointly attack our camp?¡± ¡°Three thousand are just three thousand. Are you afraid that they can defeat this formation without these three thousand?¡± Isn¡¯t Gao Baizhai underestimating himself?  Hu Chang competes with him.  You said that three thousand is worried about our formation, so let me just say that the lack of three thousand will not have much impact on our formation.  "Our strategy is to pull out all the Kira Army strongholds on the south bank of the Senkuma River. Our side is already at a disadvantage in terms of form, making it difficult for us to cross the Sai River to harass the Kira Army. Once our troops are divided to defend the grain road, will the main force be able to withstand it?  Can we withstand the fierce attack of Kira Army, or the enemy can detach a main force to join Murakami Yoshikiyo's team to attack Shiozaki Castle, or bypass Shiozaki Castle and penetrate into the rear of Shinano, what should we do then? "Komai Masatake?"  His eyes were always fixed on the silent Takeda Harunobu. To him, Iito Toromasa was a bluffing idiot. He might be a good fighter, but his strategy was far behind him.  After a long silence, Takeda Harunobu sighed softly and said: "Let Yukitaka Sanada's team help defend the two cities! Order all the people in the small prefecture army to work together to protect the grain road, and the military service account will follow the normal rules! In addition, Masaki will make preparations  , I want to discuss peace talks with Governor Kira Sahei!" When Takeda's retainers heard this, they had never seen Takeda Harunobu retreat lightly. Iito Tomasa said eagerly: "My lord! Are you going to retreat?  You can't just retreat before the battle begins!" "I obey the order!" Komai Masatake directly ignored Iitomi Homasa opposite him and stood up and retreated without even looking at him.  "Just prepare both hands! Don't worry, Komasa and you guys. Our Takeda family is not the poor and weak Suwa family, and the Kira Sahei Guardsman is not the same family as before. Please rest assured" Takeda Harunobu reassured with confidence.  There are many ministers under him.  After a long time, the retainers retreated, and a white-haired old man appeared next to him and said in a dry voice: "My lord! I have already investigated. When Kira Chibei raided the Sanada army, Yukitaka Sanada was there.  "Commander" "Let's put this question aside and talk about Kira Chibe's activities." "Yes! Kira Chibe's whereabouts are rather mysterious and they seem to be protected by a ninja army, which gives me the opportunity to get closer to spy on the information.  Almost non-existent. What can be determined at present is that Akabi General Shitara Sadachi has high command ability. The brave generals Takigawa Tokimasu, Shima Tokikatsu, Nagasaka Nobumasa and others in Akabi are very active in the surprise attack on Sanada Danmasa's army.  The performance of these people is extremely important during times of crisis" "Let's talk about the key point!" "Kira Chibe's whereabouts are mysterious, and he is especially good at marching at night. The Kira family's ninja army is very powerful, and I don't know the extent of their activities, but at least  It will also cover the entire Kawanakajima area! ¡± Takeda Harunobu ClickHe nodded and said: "You did a good job, go down and rest!" "Yes!" The old man slowly stepped back.  "If my guess is correct, the back-up force he left behind must be surrounded by reinforcements! If we send reinforcements, Kira Akabi will definitely ambush and make a surprise attack. If we don't send reinforcements, the two cities of Shiozaki and Yashiro will definitely not be protected, and the food road will be in danger.  Once the family is defeated, it will force the Takeda Army to take the initiative to reveal its flaws and defeat it in one fell swoop. Do you really think that the Takeda family does not have the courage to retreat immediately? Or is it a gamble that the family will not retreat immediately No!  I fell into his trap!" Takeda Harunobu said bitterly: "That's it, what a cruel trick!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
