    Kawagami Yarokuro glanced at the dozen or so men who were clearly shaking, and suddenly raised their heads and looked towards him. The next moment, these people shrank back to their original state without any expression. Kawakami Yarokuro coughed and said: "Eat first, let's eat after dinner."  Let¡¯s chat again.¡± The fresh experience of three meals a day brings more than just one more meal to the Echigo people. White rice, white noodles, golden potatoes, corn, and fragrant white rice are shipped from Echigo.  Rice, delicious soup cakes, a wide variety of noodles, as well as stewed potatoes, corn soup and other dishes.  Not to mention that farmers have never seen these things, even the Yue-Chinese people who are used to eating pickled radish and drinking miso soup are also attracted to it. According to rumors, the Kira family has spent a lot of money to support Yue-Chong and wants money.  The only requirement is that the Vietnamese and Chinese must resolutely defend Xinchuan County and cannot let the Chinese and Vietnamese move even half a step closer to Vietnam.  Yarokuro Kawagami didn't know whether this was true or not and had no intention of thinking about it. He finished the noodles in the big bowl in a few mouthfuls, took the empty bowl and added another bowl of fragrant noodles, poured red chili oil on it, and served it with garlic vinegar.  Adding some green vegetables is simply a delicacy in the world. The peasants clinked their bowls and chopsticks together like hungry wolves, and wolfed down the soup and rice.  He picked up the bowl and slurped down the noodles in the bowl. A middle-aged woman carrying a bamboo basket came over and took away the bowl and chopsticks, which attracted a few old bachelors to tease them. The woman was very aggressive and scolded them as "lazy."  "Good stuff", those guys didn't mind, they were laughing and taking advantage of what they were talking about.  ¡°A bunch of ignorant farmers!¡± Kawagami Yarokuro cursed secretly, stood up and walked back to the construction site to rest.  ¡°More than two months ago, he was still a powerful countryman in the county, owning fertile land for hundreds of towns.  He has about five hundred soldiers.  He is also considered the number one person in Yuezhong.  Unexpectedly, the sudden appearance of Ezhong Ichikui disrupted his peaceful life. The farmers voted for him, the ashigaru voted for him, and finally even his retainers voted for him.  The city was captured by rebellious retainers, and Yarokuro Kawakami's old father died at the gate of the city in order to cover his retreat. He had no choice but to flee with more than fifty of his trusted family members. After this escape, he escaped from Fufu County and crossed the border.  Zhongyi always knew that the overwhelming force of 70,000 to 80,000 troops would not give the wealthy family a way to survive.  There is only death if you don't surrender. Land, food, and women will still be taken away regardless of whether you surrender or not. The spies who have always been cautious have long figured out the details of the wealthy families in Yuezhong, but they were not given any chance to choose.  Kawagami Yarokuro originally did not want to fight against Ichikui, but he had to avenge the murder of his father and the destruction of his family. He was burdened with a blood feud. He wore shabby clothes, smeared his face with mud, and mixed with the fleeing peasants with dozens of remaining people.  When he slowly arrived at Xinchuan County, he discovered that most of the people in Xinchuan County had gone to the Shiina family's territory.  Then we followed the large group to Shiina Territory.  The Shiina family simply gave up all their territory south of the Sazuki River and moved all their armed forces to the north of the Sazuki River to garrison.  The local farmers also heard the news and flocked here. In addition, the refugee army that Yarokuro Kawakami was in numbered more than 60,000 people. It was obvious that the Shiina family could not handle such refugees. When it was about to turn into a disaster, the Kira navy  They came to support with a large amount of supplies and saved the defeat.  When he returned to the foot of Tohori and squinted for a while, he heard the sound of soft footsteps. Kawagami Yarokuro immediately opened his eyes and saw a middle-aged man jumping down the slope. He walked over in a few steps and whispered in a low voice: "Master, I  We have already contacted those two families. It is said that there are seven or eight Yue-Chinese wealthy families hiding among the refugees, including acquaintances from our county and Sheshui County. Everyone is waiting for this opportunity! " "Sun Sanlang, tell me why we have waited so long!  , can we really see Yamamoto Sado Mamoru?" Kawakami Yarokuro said hesitantly: "I really regret it. If I had revealed my identity earlier, I would have saved everyone from suffering along with me. For the sake of being in the same spirit.  , the Shiina family will not make things difficult for us." Kawagami Sonsaburo said anxiously: "No way, my lord! Didn't we endure the humiliation and flee all night just to avenge our family business? We have no soldiers, no food, and a family.  If you really surrender to Shiina Yasuo, you will break them up and become their retainers. My lord, look at who else is willing to surrender to the Shiina family except the people from Xinchuan County!" "Uncle is right!  Yarokuro said tangledly: "But we can't see Yamamoto Sado Mamoru, so how can we be chosen as the consort of the Zhenfu Palace? We can't just stay here and be a civilian husband!" "Let me go! I must find a way to see Yamamoto Sado Palace!"  "Heshang Sunsanlang stood up and jumped up, breaking through and disappearing.  As soon as Yamamoto Tokiyuki returned to the castle from the construction site of Shogatayama Castle, the lord of the castle, Kohata Kusuke, hosted a banquet in honor of him. This man was the patriarch of the Shiina family and had a high voice in the Shiina family. In the past two months,  After several contacts, I also learned about Yamamoto Tokiyuki's ability and influence. With his flattery, a banquet ended with the guests and hosts enjoying themselves.    Tokiyuki Yamamoto will inspect Shogatayama Castle for three days, mainly to check the completed defense facilities and supervise the speed of construction. In order to build a strong fortress group, working day and night during these two months has greatly improved Yamamoto Tokiyuki's mental state.  It was not good. As soon as he arrived at the exquisite hut prepared for him by Obata's house, Yamamoto Tokiyuki felt a sudden discomfort in his chest. He held his heart and lay on the tatami, breathing heavily.  Seeing that the situation was not going well, Numata Yumitsu hurriedly rummaged through his bag and took out the secret pills Nagata Tokumoto had prepared for him. He helped him up and hurriedly drank it with warm water. After a while, Yamamoto Tokiyuki regained his breath and said with a wry smile: "  Hey! As I get older, my panic and shortness of breath are becoming more and more useless! Fortunately, Shiliu Wenqiandian prepared pills for me, otherwise" Xiao Xing came over with a wooden basin filled with hot water and helped Yamamoto Tokiyuki.  After opening his clothes and wiping his body, Numata Yumitsu advised: "Master, please rest first! The sixteen monks Zendian said that your illness requires self-cultivation, and you must not overwork yourself. These apprentices who are skilled in building and building cities are spared, so you can let me  Disciple, come and practice! " "That's fine! The young eagle that always hides under its wings can never fight in the sky. You are already twenty-one years old, and it's time to let you go and practice." Yamamoto Tokiyuki was pleased.  's nodded.  "This little disciple of his is not as smart as Kira Yoshitsune, his strategy is not as good as Honda Tokimasa, and his generals in battle are not as victorious as Shima Tokimasa.  But there's one thing about him that's very good.  He is modest and cautious, knows his mistakes and can correct them, and is good at learning from other people's experiences.  In the past few years, he started with the most basic copywriting records, and gradually participated in all aspects of implementation, military affairs, and government affairs in five or six years. It is impossible to say that he has not been trained. What he really lacks is to be independent.  experience of.  In the next few days, Numata Yumitsu was very busy, sometimes going to the front-line construction site, sometimes breaking into the castle tower to discuss issues with the city lord, and he didn't care how ugly the faces of Kobata Kyusuke's family members were. As an authentic "for-profit"  Consequentialist".  He is used to using strong means to make himself appear more proactive. What the Chinese people think is a secondary issue.  "It is an indisputable fact that the Kira navy dominates the second half of Hokuriku. Every day, a steady stream of food passes through Toyama Bay and is transported to Matsukura Castle through Uozu Castle and the Saoyuki River on the seaside. Our battle is to defeat the Japanese army.  Army, at the very least we must defend the front line of the Saetsuki River without being breached, otherwise everything we do will be in vain. We might as well retreat to Echigo and block Echigo by relying on our own people who don¡¯t know our children and the natural dangers. Can you understand what I mean?  " "Yes, yes! You must understand! What I mean is very good. We must defend the Saoyuki River and defend the Matsukura Castle! But if Ezhong chooses to attack Uojin Castle, it is easy to defend.  What should Cangcheng do?" Kobata Jiuzhu looked harmless, but suddenly made an unexpected retort.  After several years of knowledge and rich experience, Numata Yumitsu's temperament has become stronger and sharper. He was not stunned when he heard this question, but asked: "This is impossible to succeed. Uozu Castle is backed by the sea, and Saoyuki is on the other side.  Kawa represents the problem! I bet that Ezhong will never do this. If he does, he will face the powerful navy of my Kira family. Do you understand what I mean? "  I see So, we only need to hold on to Matsukura Castle. The Imperial Army cannot be so stupid as to abandon the two cities and take Echigo directly. As long as the Saoyuki River is still controlled by the Kira Navy, we can cross this river.  Any attempt you make will have to pay a price, I understand! Please rest assured, Sado-den and Numata-den, there will definitely be no problem with Shogatayama Castle!¡± After leaving Shogatayama Castle Castle, Numata Yumitsu continued to turn around and walked around halfway.  Dao saw a middle-aged man dressed as a servant looking thiefly into the house. Numata Yumitsu was furious when he saw this. He drew out his sword with a cry and shouted: "Who dares to break into Shogatayama Castle without permission? Someone come and capture the thief!"  " This roar immediately attracted seven or eight samurai, who surrounded the middle-aged man with shining swords. This man even raised his hands to show that he had no weapons, and then shouted: "Wait a minute!  Let me tell you! I am a warrior from Yuezhong Fufu County. I have come here to see Sado-den for something important!" How could Numata Yumitsu believe his words? When he saw several guarding warriors looking at him, he immediately yelled: "What?  The Yue Chinese will sneak into the city. You can see the Sado Palace as soon as you want! "I'm really a warrior in the Yue Zhong Fufu County. If you don't believe me, go ask the people in the city."  The rich people in Vietnam must know me, Sonsaburo Kawagami! My lord, Yarokuro Kawagami, is hiding in the refugee camp with his family, and there are more than ten other people in the same situation as us, and they all want to go to the Zhenfu Palace! Let me go!  , let me go" Watching Sonsaburo Kawagami being fucked, he turned around and saw Yamamoto Tokiyuki standing in the small courtyard looking over. Numata Yumitsu stepped forward to help the old man, and said worriedly.  : "Why is master coming out! YouDidn't you just take a rest?  Have you taken the medicine at noon?  I asked Xiao Xing to make a pot of chicken soup to replenish your body in the evening.  " "No need to support me, I'm not that weak yet. That little problem will be much better after a few doses of medicine.  Yamamoto Tokiyuki stared at him with clear eyes: "Let me ask you, who was the person who was caught just now?"  Why were you arrested?  " "It turns out that Master was disturbed by him and woke up!  No, I must have woken up Master with my loud shout!  "Numata Yumitsu patted his head in annoyance, and told the whole story of what had just happened. At the end, he did not forget to sarcastically say: "If the Yuezhong rich family had to hide their heads and tails, wouldn't it be easier to go directly to Matsukura City? I want to use this method.  Lie to me, do you really think I'm a fool?  " Yamamoto Tokiyuki twisted his beard and pondered: "I see. In this case what he said may not be a lie.  "    "What?  Wasn't what he said a lie?  Why is it impossible!  How can any Chinese people hide in refugees for several months? Absolutely impossible!  " Seeing that Numata Yumitsu still didn't understand, Yamamoto Tokiyuki smiled and asked: "I just heard that man talking about defecting to the town palace.  Do you know the difference between joining my Kira family and joining the Shiina family?  "    "the difference?  The family is the guardian of Vietnam and China.  The other one is the shogunate imperial family.  The difference is so big that it's hard to countDoes Master mean that they are unwilling to take refuge with Shiina Yasuyin and are hiding among the refugees just to take refuge with us?  "Numata Yumitsu was a little confused and said with doubts on his face: "This is not right!  Then they can also join Matsukura Castle first, and then switch to my Kira family!  " "You think that after becoming Shiina Yasuin's retainers and switching to my Kira family, do you think the master will accept them as retainers?  " Yamamoto Tokiyuki couldn't help but remind his disciples that every era has its own rules and must not mess up the rules and cause trouble. The Shiina family is the leader of the people who are close to Echigo. In Vietnam, especially in Shinkawa County  He has extraordinary influence. No matter how happy he is now, once Echigo takes actions that harm his interests, he will change his position tomorrow and become an upright general. With his size and influence, he has always been  No matter how stupid Ikui's monk is, he doesn't dare to move. After all, this Shiina family is waiting for a price, and he will go with whoever offers the highest price. Now that he is optimistic about Echigo, it does not mean that he will always be tied to Echigo's chariot.  If the cake on Shiina's plate is touched before the battle is decided, who knows how dissatisfied he will be, even if it doesn't turn into a betrayal, just dragging his feet and making some small moves.  They couldn't bear it, and they felt angry because it was a small delay in getting things done. Yamamoto Tokiyuki couldn't allow this possibility to happen. The Shiina family was not a wealthy family who only lived for a living. The nominal master was still Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna, who was busy fighting the civil war in Noto.  , The reason for joining Echigo is because Echigo is stronger and more profitable, not because of any "loyalty". It doesn't matter that the Japanese who have not joined the Shiina family have arrived. The Japanese who have joined the Shiina family cannot be accepted casually, at least in the absence of a justifiable reason.  It cannot be taken in before. The Shiina family cannot be provoked, or cannot be provoked for the time being. This is the established strategy of the Kira family. To stabilize the western front and try to deal with the powerful enemies on the southern front, we must not only implement the strategy of keeping the enemy outside the country, but also protect Shinkawa.  In order to prevent the county's business from being destroyed and lay a good foundation for the future strategy of Yuezhong, their burden is very heavy and they have to be careful. "It turned out to be like this" Numata Yumitsu took a deep breath and realized that he still had to do it.  Tai Nian couldn't see the reason, shook his head and said: "It seems that I still have a lot to learn, I will release him now.  " Two days later, Kawakami Yarokuro and his family entered Shogatayama Castle. The news that Kawakami's family saw Yamamoto Sado Mamoru spread like wildfire. Within two days, more than 20 people from the country poured out of the refugee camp. So many people dragged their family with them.  There are thousands of people in the mouth. As the saying goes, when you pull up a carrot and unearth it, there are so many people from the country who are relatives and friends from the hometown, and many people are related by old relatives. The number of people has increased to more than 3,000, so that even Shengxing Mountain Castle cannot accommodate it.  When they heard that a group of Yue-Chinese people had defected to the Kira family, Shiina Yasuyin's smiling face immediately turned cloudy. In his opinion, this Ezhong was the battle between the Jimbo clan of Tonami County and the Shiina clan of Shinkawa County.  The Noto Hatakeyama family can't even take care of their own affairs, so how can they interfere with Echu's affairs? This time, the chief minister of the gods did not follow the rules and invited Echu and Kaga to invade and plunder the wealthy families and villagers.  Shiina Yasuyin was worried and happy at the same time. He was sure that the chief minister of the gods must be ashamed of himself at this moment. Ezhong always knew that he was playing a trick on the chief minister of the gods. He was not trying to take advantage of the east wind to take over Yue.  Is Zhongsan County a big deal? The monks who have always been cautious thought about it carefully. Anyway, the army has a reputation of being vicious. As long as the army moves, it will offend the local lords sooner or later. In this case, it is better to offend them all at once.  The Chinese people in Vietnam are all happy to get benefits from the land, which is more real than real money and silver.?Let¡¯s talk about the future later. No matter what the Emperor General is thinking or doing, why do so many officials follow them to start a war? It¡¯s not because they get money and food and there are benefits.  It doesn't matter if there are any problems in the future. No matter how many problems there are, they are not Ichikui's fault. The worst they can do is shift the responsibility to the chief minister, saying that he lured Ichikui into Yuezhong. He can still say it with his mouth.  Is there hundreds of thousands of mouths in one mouth?  Does the Chief Divine Protector dare to offend Kaga Ichikui?  Do those Vietnamese people really dare to come over and cause trouble for me?  "Obviously they don't dare and cannot do this. Hokuriku only always seeks trouble for others. There is no time when others come to trouble themselves.  This godly protector thinks he is extremely smart.  As a result, all the agencies failed and he was trapped instead.  Many Chinese people in the three counties of Fufu, Sheshui and Xinchuan were plundered indiscriminately by the same army.  As their wives and children were separated and their families were destroyed, the first thing they wanted to hate was the cruel Ichigo, and the second thing they wanted to do was to be the God's Protector.  It was Shiina Yasuyin who had the bad luck for the long term of the divine protection. How could he not be excited about the rare chance that the long term of the divine protection was missed this time? In the past two months, he has always dared to do stupid things and offended a large number of people in the country, and then he fled.  The turmoil spread to most of Ezhong, and in the end it was the Kira family who spared no effort to support him. All good things happened to him alone. No wonder he was smiling from ear to ear all day long.  The situation now is different from before.  It was not a good sign for the Chinese people to flock to join the Kira family. Soon he found out that the people who joined him were starting to stir. For example, the land was rich and the country was fertile and the government had soldiers and food in hand. It was not just a matter of dependence. The Shiina family was unable to restrain them. However,  Within two days, Doi Masashige became a guest at Yamamoto Shikiya, which greatly stimulated many people in the country and set a very bad example.  Soon, the Chinese people in Shinkawa County who originally came to join the Kira family turned to the Kira family. The powerful Japanese people such as Yokota and Yokoyama ran over without even saying hello. The less powerful servants of the rich family would even pretend to say hello.  Then he walked away in a swagger, leaving a letter to thank the Shiina family for their support.  After many visits to the land to determine the reward, Shiina Yasuyin almost fainted from anger. ????????????? Kang Yin, the name of the vertebrae, is in pain and cannot express it.  He couldn't run up to Yamamoto Tokiyuki and yell at him for being unethical. The people of the country ran over to him, not the Kira family who snatched it from him. He couldn't scold the Kira family for being too strong and steal the hearts of the people, right?  If the deal is already done, no matter what you say, it will be in vain and will only make people laugh, so you might as well just suffer a dumb loss and pretend not to know what to do.  Yamamoto Tokiyuki returned to Matsukura Castle in a few days. The Shiina clan's residence as the governor of Shinkawa County has been expanding almost every generation. The scale is far less spacious than Kasugayama Castle, but it can still be done with three to five thousand people.  , as soon as he returned to the city, Yamamoto Tokiyuki rushed to the castle tower without stopping and took the initiative to find Shiina Yasuin to discuss the army expansion plan.  "Does Yamamoto Sado-den mean to gather 3,000 people below, and then gather 3,000 people from the country together with the 5,000 elite members of the Kira Army? It's a good plan, but I really can't afford so many troops!  Sado-den also knows that many people from the country have joined the Kira family recently, and the life of the Shiina family is not easy! " Shiina Yasuyin kept pouring out his grievances, why is it so difficult for this guardian to be disobedient and the countrymen ignore him, as if he is  This Ezhong Guardian has quickly become a mere commander. He says that he has no troops and even if he does have them, he won't use them. What can you, Kansuke Yamamoto, do to me?  "I see I didn't expect that Shiina Hall would have so many difficulties, so I'm a little reckless." Yamamoto Tokiyuki flashed a light in his single eye, and then laughed and said: "Since Shiina Hall has difficulties, then we will also  You can't force it, right? How about lowering the standard? Shiina-den should be able to bear the military service of two thousand people! " "This is really" Shiina Yasuyoshi was about to refuse, but suddenly saw Yamamoto Tokiyuki's meaningful expression.  , Unconsciously, something suddenly came to his mind and his tone changed again: "I have to discuss with the retainers before giving you an answer. After all, this is not a trivial matter!" Yamamoto Tokiyuki nodded thoughtfully:  "That's right! I'll wait for the good news then." "Oops! How could I have said this out" Shiina Yasuyin was so regretful!  I wish I could slap myself: "Looking at his expression, is there any deceit in it? I heard that the Kira family is used to cheating, it seems I have to be careful!" Yamamoto Tokiyuki is not in a hurry, Etsuchu has always been able to coordinate with each other without the restraint of a general.  No, there is a clear distinction between Kaga Ichiku and Etsuchu Ichiku. The Jinbo Nagasaki and the Ichiku military officer are also at odds with each other. They cannot get support no matter what they say. This huge and chaotic army is greedily plundering the resources of each county.  , I won¡¯t be able to reach Matsukura Castle for a while.  Shiina Yasuyin was busy discussing countermeasures without affecting Yamamoto Tokiyuki's plan and deployment. Soon he recruited 3,000 soldiers in the name of assisting in defending the city. Chinese people from the three counties of Vietnam and China enthusiastically signed up to participate, as well as civilian husbands working in the refugee camps.  They also heard the news and moved.??This time, tens of thousands of people unexpectedly came to sign up.  Numata Yumitsu was responsible for the selection work. His approach was very smart, direct and strict. He wanted to select 3,000 soldiers who were strong and had some combat experience. These few soldiers alone drove away half of the refugees who were joining in the fun. It was not even 40 years after fourteen years.  Those who were weak and disabled did not want them, those who had no fighting spirit did not want them. In the end, there were more than 4,000 people left, 80% of whom were from the local Chinese system, and the remaining 20% ??were also experienced ashigaru.  Yamamoto Tokiyuki gave these four thousand people to Numata Yumitsu for training. He has been studying with Tatsumitsu for five or six years since Sakamoto accepted his disciples. He has long been familiar with this military training technique. How to deal with the difficult soldiers and thugs?  The unconvinced Chinese people all have a set of corresponding methods to deal with it. After seven or eight days of training with the new army, they easily made dozens of mistakes, from running circles in the teaching field, queue training, emergency gatherings to armed marches and rapid formations.  , tortured these four thousand people to the point of death.  In less than half a month, these 4,000 people were brought into obedience, and then they were taken to practice frequently with 5,000 new troops. The shouts of killing were heard on the training ground from dawn to dawn.  In the evening, sometimes after dinner, the army would be sent out for special training in the middle of the night. Every time, Matsukura Castle would be in a state of panic, but the samurai of the Shiina family seemed to turn a blind eye, and instead often visited their training and praised them.  Revealing a deep feeling of envy.  When this news reached the ears of the Shiina family, it was a different story. Shiina Yasuyin threw several vases angrily and complained loudly: "The Echigo samurai are so bullying. They came to my door to recruit soldiers and treated me as Shiina."  What does the family do! I am the dignified guardian of the Ezhong family, not the heirloom retainer of your Kira family!" "There is also military training. I practice all kinds of nonsense every day. This is a naked show of force.  I, the Shiina family, are so evil!" Hata Kyuusuke, the youngest member of the Shodai family, fanned the flames.  "In my opinion, this person from the Kira family is not a good person, and most likely he wants to stay in Echu. Our Matsukura Castle is about to become a castle of the Kira family. If this situation continues, I will lose the influence of the Shiina family in Echu.  They were all taken away by him!" Hosokawa Sojuro shouted in indignation, shaking his huge head.  This person's name is very deceiving. He is one of the "Five Generals of Yue and Zhong". He is a group of Yue-Chinese people who were bored and made up a group of people from all over the country who seemed to be very good at it and had strong martial arts skills.  , after playing a few small battles, he felt that he was so arrogant, and then he proclaimed himself a general, and then he was said to be one of the five generals in Vietnam and China.  The origin of Sojuro Hosokawa is unknown. In Vietnam, he always boasted that he was superior in martial arts and could defeat the three armies. When the Kira Army first arrived at Matsukura Castle two months ago, this man went to show off his skills in front of the Kira Army and mocked them.  A bunch of hairless cowards, claiming that they can pick out ten or eight of you with a big gun, but they ended up saying such nonsense and slapped him in the face, and were beaten by three Kira Ashigaru using the combined attack technique, so that even his mother didn't recognize him.  , and he has remembered this hatred ever since.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
