    Nagao Kagetora's name change was another major event that caused a sensation in Kanto. This time he not only changed his name, but also changed the surnames of his courtiers and his own Miao characters. He recognized Uesugi Kenmasa as his adoptive father and inherited the Uesugi family in Yamauchi, thereby completing the process of growing up.  One of the many branches of the Oda family has transformed into the leader of the Uesugi family, a prestigious family in Kanto.  The new name Masatora Uesugi gave the people of Kanto a huge impact. Echigo's increasingly naked body made the Hojo family in Sagami Odawara sleepless and uneasy. However, they still couldn't accuse Uesugi Masatora of wrong behavior. Hate  Feeling itchy at the base of their teeth but not daring to take action, they had no choice but to knock out their teeth or swallow their blood. The whole army continued to launch a new attack on the Satomi clan of Shanhui Kingdom with a sullen voice.  Everyone knows that Uesugi Kenmasa, the governor of the Yamauchi Uesugi family, was forced to go to Echigo by the Hojo family. Uesugi Kenmasa repeatedly sent the governor to Echigo, which once became the funniest event of the year in the Kanto Eight Kingdoms. It is said that it was because of sending the governor to Echigo.  He was also ridiculed severely by the town government official and made it a harsh requirement for his wife to serve as the governor of Guandong, which almost made the last governor go crazy.  Needless to say how powerful Echigo was, just by looking at the way the Hojo family gave in and the Takeda family's languor in Kai, you can tell that those two Echigo were incredible samurai, even if they were considered to be some of the most famous generals in the world.  I don't think it's too boastful. If someone else were to be the general of Echigo, who would dare to send out the army to fight against the terrifying strength of the four-pronged army of more than 100,000 people?  Not to mention that several key wars were won by Echigo. Even the most inconspicuous battle of Igarashi River exposed Echigo's strong reserve of generals. Two white-armored generals with four thousand  The military strength should be that the 6,000 Mutsu troops were killed, crying like ghosts and howling like wolves.  It almost cost Date Huizong's life. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Then Mutsu and Deyu were really scared.  I scraped together a few thousand men and horses to rush to Echigo, which was not enough for others. The most terrible thing was that the main force of Echigo was attracted outside and was beaten like this. If we faced the main force of Echigo,  What should we do with those inhuman generals?  What about the Black Dragoon, the general of ghosts and gods is terrifying to hear. It is said that the name of the Blood Dragoon was spread during the Battle of Kawanakajima, which makes some people even more sleepless.  The retirement of Hojo Ujiyasu brought unpredictable changes to the Hojo family. The new family governor, Hojo Ushimasa, resolutely implemented his father's strategic decisions.  Targeting the Satomi clan in Minami Kanto, the Satomi clan of Anfang did have a lot of grudges with the Hojo family. In the second year of Tenbun, the Satomi clan fell into internal strife. The disadvantaged Satomi Yoshihiro was helped by the Hojo clan.  He seizes the governor of the family, and then turns against him and stands on the opposite side of the Hojo family.  Later, as Koyumi fought against the combination of Hojo Utsuna and Ashikaga Haru, at the most critical moment of the Kokufu Taiga War, Satomi Yoshihiro decisively retreated and severely deceived Koyumi, causing him to be trapped in the battle between the Hojo army.  After his death, he cheated his teammates twice in a row and betrayed all the integrity of the Satomi family.  Satomi Yiyao also took the opportunity to make a fortune and pocket most of the land in the Shanghui Kingdom. From then on, he changed from a small wealthy family who settled down to a serious name.  This is not the complete history of his cheating on his teammates.  During the Kanto Astronomical Rebellion a few years ago, Satomi Yoshihiro, who was known as the deputy commander of Kanto but actually betrayed his teammates in Kanto, once again deceived half of the samurai family in Kanto. Seeing that the situation was not going well, he once again ran away with oil on his feet. The Ota clan and Chiba  The family was ruthlessly surrounded by the Hojo army just like Yoshiaki Kogami, but the governors of these two families were not so stupid and surrendered on the spot.  The Maratani family managed to escape after nearly losing half of their family fortune. Even Masaki Tokishige, the minister who followed Satomi Yoshiyao to conquer the world, was thrown off by him and almost couldn't come back after being cut off. Later, Satomi Yoshiyao  It began to expand again. In the 23rd year of Tenmon, it invaded the territory of the Maratani clan. Nobumasa Maratani was defeated and committed suicide. Manxi Castle Toki Weyori was forced to surrender, thus completing the plan to unify the Shanghui Kingdom.  The Hojo family launched an attack on the Satomi family under the banner of revenge for the Maratani family. The Hojo Ujimasa ordered the Minami Kanto nationals Ota Yasushi of Edo Castle, Ota Shimasa of Iwafu Castle, and Edo who was crippled.  The crowd gathered an army of 23,000 people. They first held down the retainers in the northern Kanto area to continue to defend against the pressure from the Ueno direction. At the same time, they reassured the Chiba clan of the lower sect that they did not need to send troops and ensured the emotional stability of the lower sect members in the southern kandong area.  After hearing the news, the Satomi family hurriedly summoned their retainers to call for allies. Satake Yoshiaki, Yuki Masakatsu and their son Yuki Mingchao led their troops and came together. In a short period of time, the Satomi family gathered 15,000 troops and gathered in Ichikawa.  Waiting for the attack of the Hojo army, Hojo Ushimasa was worried that he would not be able to control the situation, so he invited his reclusive father Hojo Uyasu to Edo Castle to personally supervise the battle.  On April 5, Dihuo Hachiman Hojo Tsunaro led the five-color Bi8000 army to the west bank of the Oinichi River in advance, and then the rear formation was handed over to Daidoji Masashige with Hojo Umasa's two younger brothers, the young Hojo Ujiteru and Hojo Ujikuni, and Ota.  Zimasa was on the left wing, Ota Yasushi was on the right wing, and Hojo Ushimasa personally commanded more than 20,000 Chinese troops to attack the Ohikawa in a mighty manner.  There is no need to worry about the Hojo family appeasing Chiba Yinfu, but ChibaHowever, Taicheng, the capital of the country, has been occupied by Satomi Yinfu. Seeing that the outpost stronghold close to the Hojo family has been captured, if a chaos like the Takayama Battle really breaks out, the Chiba clan will be finished, so Chiba Yinfu is  It¡¯s not okay to think about it in a hurry.  On April 6, the Hojo Army stationed its camp on the east bank of the Dainichi River, and prepared a large-scale attack without haste. Unexpectedly, Ota Shisei had already rebelled against the surrender of the Hojo family, and secretly contacted his uncle Jiang.  Ota Yasushi, the lord of the castle, agreed that when he raised his troops the next day, he would join the Satomi coalition forces.  Ota Yasushi is the great-grandson of the Ota Dougan sect. He is nine years younger than Ota Shimasa but is much older. He has long been dissatisfied with the fact that he surrendered to the Hojo family but was forced to give up his hometown. So the two sides agreed to quietly contact the other side.  Ota Zizheng felt that although meeting Yoshiyao here was a bit deceptive, at least everyone had an equal relationship, which was much better than following the Hojo family.  So when it was first light the next day, Tominaga Naokatsu, the vanguard of the Hojo Army, led his army across the Yagiri Ferry. Ota Shimasa and Ota Yasushi also actively joined the vanguard of crossing the river. When the vanguard crossed the other side of the Ohikawa River, they found their allies.  Ota Shimasa and Ota Yasushi suddenly broke away from the array and exposed themselves in the wild. Then they faced the fierce attack of the three-party coalition forces of Satomi Yoshiyao, Yuuki Masakatsu, and Satake Yoshiaki who looked like wolves and tigers.  This Qingbei bannerman who survived the high mountain battle ended up with his blood spilled on the Oinikawa River, becoming the first high-ranking samurai to die in this war.  Tominaga Naokatsu, the new leader of the Edo people, was asked for help again.  It directly led to the complete collapse of the morale of the Edo people.  Several years of war have resulted in constant losses of troops. Less than a year after the death of the former leader Tsunakei Toyama, the current leader Tominaga Naokatsu was taken over again. The people of Edo no longer knew how to fight. This elite group had been shaken by the cruel reality.  Beat stupidity mercilessly.  The collapse of morale brought disastrous consequences. Before the Hojo family's main force could figure out what was wrong with the forward, they were rushed by the defeated troops. Their own main force was also panicked, and they followed without even having time to clean up their own camp.  Defeated and fled back to Edo Castle.  The Satomi allied forces sang and danced excitedly, and held a celebration banquet that night to celebrate their victory over the Hojo Army in advance and to wish they could seize Edo Castle and eventually Odawara in the subsequent war.  It has to be said that Satomi Yoshihiro was too careless to underestimate the enemy. In comparison, Hojo Ujiyasu's level was far higher than him. After learning that his Hojo Ujiyasu was defeated and returned in a confused manner, Hojo Ujiyasu immediately realized that this was the right thing to do.  It was an excellent opportunity to counterattack. The Kwantung Allied Forces, whose military rigor was far lower than that of the Uesugi Army, would surely relax their vigilance after a great victory, so they once again resorted to their best night fighting technique, on a night with a dark moon and high winds.  Crossed the Yagiri Ferry again and headed towards the Kokufudai camp.  He was right as he expected.  Satomi saw that the coalition forces had indeed relaxed their vigilance, thinking that after defeating the Hojo Army, they would scare the enemy away.  I imagined that the Hojo Army would be frightened by the news, as if they were attacked by the Long Tail Legion, but I didn't want to think about how much I weighed. The coalition forces didn't even have unified orders, so they had the nerve to compare them to the elite of Echigo's Hundred Battles.  The Hojo Army arrived very suddenly. They crossed the river to the other side in the middle of the night and quietly touched the outside of the camp. At this time, the coalition camp was like a sleeping city. The cold night wind of early spring blew on the face and it would not take long for it to become numb.  Even the warriors who kept vigil could not bear the chill and sleepiness and ran to take a nap next to the bonfire sheltered from the wind.  Satomi Yoshiyao, Ohta Yasushi, Ohta Shimasa, Yuuki Masakatsu, Yuki Mingchao and his son, Satake Yoshiaki and other national lords were drinking and having fun in the middle of the night and just fell asleep. They did not expect that the Hojo Army's night attack would be so fast.  It was so intense, as if fire and shouts of death sounded at the same time in an instant.  The Hojo army with blue flags came from all directions. They raised their butcher knives and mercilessly killed the sleeping soldiers. They set fire to the camps and burned the food and weapons. They went on a rampage and cut down everyone they met. They greeted people with grease-covered rockets as if they were free of charge.  Seeing the coalition tents, the entire camp soon turned into a big furnace with smoke and fire everywhere.  Yuuki Masakatsu was in poor health and went to bed early without drinking much, but he didn't want to encounter such a disaster. His son Yuuki Mingchao was drunk and unconscious. The old man finally shook his son to wake up, but found that Yuki Mingchao had drunk  His legs and feet were so weak that he couldn't even hold the sword. Dozens of mounted guards who rushed in were blocked by Hojo Ushige before they could protect the father and son from escaping.  Facing the red-eyed Hojo army, Yuki Meichao was killed by Hojo Ujishige with little resistance. Yuuki Masakatsu fell into the underworld before he could call for help. Satomi Yoshihiro unfortunately bumped into Hojo Tsunari.  He was stabbed in the shoulder by a gun and almost died, but Gun Ozen Masaki Tokishige's desperate efforts saved him from Hojo Tsunari's gun.  The unsuspecting Ota Sumasa and Ota Yasushi were caught in the camp. The uncles and nephews of the Ota family once again became prisoners of the Hojo family. Yoshiaki Satake was more awakened and wiser. Seeing that the situation was not good, he took his family  The army fled desperately, and at the same time he became the only daimyo among the Satomi coalition forces to retreat completely. In this battle, the Satomi coalition army had 15,000 troops, and together with the Ota clan's 2,000 rebels, a total of 5,000 people were lost.He was ordered to capture more than 3,000 people, and the rest fled in embarrassment in the dark.  This war is called the Second Kokufu-Taiwan War. In this battle, the Hojo family lost more than 3,000 people, of which nearly 2,000 lives were contributed by the friends of the Edo people who had been beaten to death. The actual loss was more than 1,000 people at night.  Some, and quite a few, were killed by stray arrows fired by friendly forces, and the net loss was far less than imagined.  After this battle, the rising momentum of the Satomi family was ruthlessly suppressed. Masaru Yuki won, and Ming Dynasty Yuki's father and son died. As a result, the direct line of the Yuki clan was extinct. As a last resort, the Yuki family's genealogy was urgently separated from the mountain.  They wanted a son to be the governor of the house. This boy's original name was Koyama Haruto, but he changed his name to Yuuki Haruto.  The Hojo family used a victory to prove their strength and defend the Hojo family's absolute dominance in Kanto. They used powerful force to silently tell a truth. Although the Hojo family cannot defeat Echigo, there is still no problem in dealing with you.  Hojo Ushige used his actions to prove that he is not a weakling who can be controlled by everyone. It is not a shame to be unable to defeat Saito Asanobu. To sum up in one sentence, "It's not that our army is incompetent, it's that the enemy is too cunning."  At the same time that the Hojo family won the victory, the construction of the Kaiji Kawasaki Hall was initially completed. The tall arrows and oars, thick walls, and the bones of countless farmers buried completed the difficult fortress transformation. Takeda Daizen entered the road and Shingen changed his hair style, refreshing.  The bald head saves you the trouble of taking care of your hair.  The battle situation in Nakashinano became increasingly unfavorable. Before Nobuharu Baba recovered from his injuries, he was forced to be sent to the front line to resist the occupation. Minami-Shinano Ina-gun Dai Akiyama's friend continued to receive reports that the people of Minami-Shinano were unstable.  Bad news spreads every day. It can be said that there are three surprises in one day. The Takeda family is like a house with air leakage from all directions. No matter how much subsidies are given, it can't cover up the already declining predicament.  Tsuzakikan is in a state of depression, half of the shops are closed, and there are only a few pedestrians on the road. Occasionally, one or two people passing by will lower their heads and shrink their necks, and run past in a hurry. The whole city is plunged into an inexplicable panic. With the news,  Unfavorable news from the direction continued to come, and the temper of the Takeda family samurai also increased day by day. Fights and fights occurred frequently. There were also many irritable samurai who drew swords on their colleagues because of a few quarrels, causing many quarrels.  Senseless murder.  Takeda Harunobu is very worried about this change. Recently, he often has trouble closing his eyes all night long. His eyes are red and bloodshot, and he has trouble falling asleep. Endless nightmares are waiting and haunting him every day.  For the first time, I dreamed of the endless night and dots of fire in Kawanaka Island, and the blood-red cavalry at dawn. The bloody spears slashed at him in an instant, and he would be awakened by nightmares the next moment. Even if he forced himself to close his eyes, he could only remain half asleep and half awake.  A confused state.  The pain of the family governor was deeply felt by the family members. These days, the samurai were unable to eat, sleep, and their bodies were getting weaker and weaker. They were all harmed by that war. This battle knocked out the spirit of the Takeda family.  For the most part, the proud and confident Takeda family samurai in the past have become more extreme and violent. The endless violent incidents in Kai just show that the samurai are going through a difficult period of chaos, pain, and confusion. The goals they strive for are shattered, and they are unclear about their future.  Where to turn, the entire Takeda family fell into unprecedented chaos, which is what the family members did not want to see.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
