Uesugi Masatora looked doubtfully at Kaga Ichimune, who was running faster and faster with his back to him. He didn't quite understand Kaga Ichimune's intention of doing this. When he received this piece of information, he thought about it for a while and didn't understand what it was. A fresh tactic. Now that I saw the actual results, I realized that this was not a fresh tactic at all, but really just an escape rather than any other back-up move. "Facing a life-and-death battle against me, we might still have a chance to survive. Turning your back on me is asking for death!" Masatora Uesugi snorted coldly, and ordered the cavalry to join forces with Honjo Shigenaga and others. There were seven Qian's huge cavalry team has fully unleashed the power of the Kira family's monopoly on Hokuriku horse politics. Saito Asanobu, Kakizaki Keie, Hojo Takahiro, Honjo Shigenaga, Kurokawa Kiyomizu, Yasuda Keimoto, Yoshie Keizi, Arakawa Nagami, Ueno Ienari, and Shoda Shizuo gathered around him, seeing this With all the familiar faces, Masatora Uesugi couldn't help but sigh at how fast things have changed. He experienced a life with only one country to protect him six years ago, and now has a huge reputation of controlling large territories in Hokuriku and Kanto. I didn't realize how much had changed in the past. It wasn't until my former retainers had become the generals of one town and one town, and they gathered in front of the Tetori River again that I could see how fast they had changed over the years. I quietly scanned everyone's faces and sighed secretly. : "Only Yoshitoki can do this. It would definitely not be that strong if it were our family. The most we can do is eat Kawanaka Island to maintain the front, control Ueno Country and then try to advance into Kanto!" Numata Yumitsu found that Uesugi Masatora seemed to be lost in memories, He reminded in a low voice: "General! It's time to go out!" "Yes!" Masatora Uesugi woke up immediately and realized that this was not the best time to recall the past, so he ordered: "Go out! Defeat Kaga's army, and then Wait for an opportunity to seize Nomi County! Don't give them a chance to stand up!" "Ha!" A dozen generals immediately galloped out, and then the seven thousand horsemen turned into two arrows and moved towards Kaga's flank. The 22,000 ashigaru quickly followed up and pounced on General Wakabayashi Nagato's garrison, which was in charge of breaking up the rear. Iron hoofs rumbled for a while. Kaga Ichikui, who had never seen so many cavalry teams, was even more excited. I was so frightened that I lost my wits. "Retreat! Don't stop. Retreat immediately!" Saikoji Shinji gritted his teeth and ordered: "Order Hayaya Gozaemon, Takabi Ishimi Mamoru, Nigaku Sakyo Shojin, and Suzuki Dewa Mamoru to lead their troops to support Wakabayashi Nagato Mamoru. We must Block the Kira Army's attack, otherwise Nomi County will be lost!" The defeat has become irresistible, and the Saikoji Shinji can only wait for it to happen before it is too late. It is a pity that this group The morale of the Yikui army was too low. After the four generals led 20,000 troops, they still could not stop the Kira Legion's attack. Soon, the 30,000 troops exposed gaps in the formations due to poor communication and coordination. The seven thousand cavalry troops penetrated and cut out two huge gaps, splitting the already uneven army into pieces. The Ashigaru team that caught up later overwhelmed Wakabayashi Nagatomo's formation with a wave of assault. The front formation was broken, causing the friendly forces behind to be routed. They also collapsed with a single charge. Then, like dominoes, the front formation collapsed. The chain reaction caused caused the subsequent dozens of formations to collapse. The crying and shouting people from all walks of life turned around and fled for their lives, smashing the formation guarded by Wakabayashi Nagato into pieces. Under the protection of the Hatamoto samurai, he had only one way to turn around and flee. As soon as the general ran away, a partial collapse turned into a total collapse. Everyone was competing to see who could run faster and who could hold on longer, but how could two legs win over four? Where are the legs? An important role of the cavalry is to chase down the defeated troops. The faster the retreating troops run, the more they will be killed, because they are busy running for their lives and use all their energy on running. There is no strength to defend against the surprise attack from behind. Therefore, what knights on horseback are most willing to do is to chase down defeated soldiers. It is safe and fast and is the most favorite way of meritorious service among horsemen. Masatora Uesugi did not follow up and attack. As a general, he has long been accustomed to such murderous attacks. He used to be willing to rush in and cut off a few heads to show his bravery. As he got older, he often commanded troops. Outside, there is no longer a need to charge forward to show that one is not inferior to a first-rate general in terms of tyrannical force. Under the protection of five hundred horsemen, they quietly waited for the end of the war. After a while, an envoy reported the battle situation ahead, and Wakabayashi Nagato Shou was asked by the main village Shigencho. Hayaya Gozaemon was taken over by Arakawa Nagami, Nige Sakyo Shojin was taken over by Kurokawa Kiyomito, Suzuki Dewa Mamoru was taken over by Ueno Ienari, Hojo Takahiro was too slow to gain any merit, and he was so angry that he took an unknown one. The official vented his anger and waited for news to reach his ears one after another. Among them was the news that Numata Yumitsu had divided up several retreating troops in an orderly manner and was unmoved by the rush to attack. Masatora Uesugi nodded thoughtfully: "There is a side that is not impatient, not impatient, not arrogant, not discouraged." The general's courage and talent for military strategy and strategy are also of a first-class level, but the gap in his chest still needs a lot of polishing, and he will become a leader in the future.A general whose reputation is not inferior to that of our beautiful defender! The person Sadoden has taken a liking to is quite good! ¡± Uesugi Masatora unconsciously viewed him as a senior when commenting on him. In fact, Numata Yumitsu is two years older than Honjo Shigenaga, and only seven years younger than Uesugi Masatora. It¡¯s just because he has not been around in these years. He followed Yamamoto Tokiyuki to practice military strategy without revealing anything, but it was always easy to be quietly forgotten by everyone. After several years of accumulation, Numata Yumitsu has the qualifications to lead an army on his own, and his military experience has also increased with Ezhong. , Kaga's series of wars quickly enriched. Perhaps they were not as brave and good at fighting as Honjo Nobanaga, Takigawa Ichikunano, Shima Tokikatsu, who were valued by Kira Yoshitoki and Yamamoto Tokiyuki, and not as good as Honda Tokimasa. He is full of wits and hard to guard against, but his calm and low-key temperament is the most suitable disciple to inherit the mantle of Yamamoto Tokiyuki. Shima Tokikatsu is already a general of the town's reserve team, and he has formed a team following Yoshitoki Kira over the years. He set up his own military strategy system, and what he learned from Yamamoto Tokiyuki was only perfected on the basis of his own military strategy. Honda Tokimasa specializes in intellectual strategy and political strategy. He has an outstanding talent as a counselor, and he loves to read books at a glance. Over the years, A large amount of reading accumulation has also formed their own system. Neither of them can tolerate Yamamoto Tokiyuki's system that has been polished for decades, just like Kira Yoshitoki also has his own system that cannot tolerate Yamamoto Tokiyuki's system. People who are too outstanding always have their own ideas and always want to find a new path of their own on the original path. Of course, there is no problem in doing so. It is an irreversible historical trend for those who are better than others to be better than others. But for such people It is very unsuitable to be a successor. Just like a swordsman who practices swordsmanship and war always creates his own sect after becoming a master, such as the Tomita style under the Nakajo style, and the Taimaki style under the Tomita style. Smart people who think of new things must start their own business, so the smartest disciples will run out to start their own business. Only the disciples who are not the smartest but the most stable will inherit the mantle passed down by their master. He is not the smartest person. Unlike the disciples Yamamoto Tokiyuki accepted who were all geniuses with amazing talents, he has always been a talent who has grown up step by step. If he can barely be considered a genius, it can only be regarded as hard work. A genius who becomes a genius through hard work. Tokiyuki Yamamoto liked this about him. He also liked very smart children when he was young, but as he grew older, he found that these children who were too smart would always learn something from him. After the skills, they changed their interest and learned something that they were more interested in. Even Kira Yoshitoki chose to learn what he taught, not to mention the other two apprentices who became monks halfway, and Numata Yumitsu worked very hard to accept Yamamoto Tokiyuki. The things taught include military strategy, intellectual strategy, political strategy, including city-building techniques, and even the way to behave in society, etc. Especially in the military strategy part, the most detailed teaching is given, including how to use troops, the judgment of the situation and the decisions that should be made. , then become familiar with the mountains and landscapes and understand the changes of yin and yang, and gradually improve the general strategy to the top level among the first-class generals. As for the impact of higher levels, it requires not only hard work, but also relies more on talent. Uesugi Masatora has several good masters. From his mentor, Mitsuru Amuro, to his cultural teacher, Tairen Mencha, to Honjo Misaku Morino, who was both civil and military, they all greatly helped him shape his character in his childhood, but he has achieved more than that today. It comes from his astonishing war talent. Just like Yoshitoki Kira's understanding of military strategy and strategy has gone beyond ordinary people's expectations, Masatora Uesugi's judgment of the war situation and his fleeting grasp of the enemy's response are almost incomprehensible. He can fight Winning a battle that others can't fight or win is his strongest point. At the same time, it is also a unique talent in this era, even Yoshitoki Kira cannot do this. He has enough ability and qualifications to examine Numata Yumitsu, who is only seven years younger than him. He is one of the few samurai in Echigo who has this qualification. Obtaining his approval shows that Numata Yumitsu is indeed a very outstanding military commander. The future direction may be Honjo Sano, who was both civil and military, became the pillar-level general of the Kira family. This battle lasted for nearly an hour, and finally Xiguang Temple Zhenjiao led an army of 30,000 people to abandon the Shengsheng Village and fled to Hotan Mountain City where Hotan Chaosheng Temple is located. In addition, the retreating 10,000 troops barely managed to squeeze into Xinsheng Village before it came to an end. The fighting lasted only a short morning. The combined attack captured the heads of nearly 13,200 people and captured more than 7,000 prisoners alive. In fact, as many as 10,000 prisoners were originally captured alive. However, because the captured Xiangyi Kui army prisoners resisted extremely fiercely, they finally had to be ruthless and kill them with one blow. Killing one or two did not work and could not deter these prisoners, so they had to kill more than 3,000 people in one go. Immediately, the remaining seven thousand prisoners were so frightened that they no longer dared to cause trouble. ?????????????????????????????In addition to some of the losses caused by Honjo Shigenaga and Numata Yumitsu, on average, each mounted samurai had more than one and a half beheadings. In fact, the reason why there was no annihilation battle was that Uesugi Masatora was unwilling to outflank the seven thousand elite knights. Cutting off Kaga's usual escape route would achieve huge results, but at least half of the seven thousand mounted warriors would die. Maybe the entire army would be annihilated and ten or twenty thousand of them could escape. This was the greatest result achieved with the least effort. He easily killed more than 13,000 people without much damage and captured more than 7,000 people. It was a great victory. Why bother to sacrifice so many people for so many people? The precious mounted warriors may not be able to expand the Warring States period much in the end. It is the stupidest tactic for cavalry to stand still and block the attack. Without the support of movement speed, they are not as powerful as the dismounted samurai. But if they dismount, they will become a mounted infantry. This is a huge waste for the most elite Echigo cavalry. The pride of the samurai would not allow them to turn themselves back into the poor mounted infantrymen they once were. Over the years, Kira Yoshi has been advocating the improvement of riding skills and introducing the concept of mounted infantry in detail. Since then, no samurai who can ride a horse is willing to be a dismounted samurai. Of course, no general in this army has dared to refuse. The person who gave the order, but Uesugi Masatora didn't intend to do this. Killing all the people here would require paying a heavy price, and a good victory turned into a tragic victory. Even if he wins the war in the end, it is no different from losing it in his eyes. After all, they are attacking more with less, with 29,000 troops surrounded by more than 60,000 troops. It is a very dangerous thing to surround a strong side with inferior troops. This is not to go through continuous raids and increase the military strength. In the battle with Kiriki, who had an absolute advantage, this was not the Echu Koyabe River. It was impossible for him to copy the tactics he had used before and use them again here, time and place. The characters and situations are all different, so if you try to copy them forcibly, you will suffer big losses. So he just killed nearly 10,000 people and then chose to drive them away. He chose to cross the Tetori River for two purposes. The first was to use powerful force to frighten Echizen Ichiki's troops and make them completely give up on regaining their lost territory. Ishikawa and Hebei counties retain any illusions. The second one was to sweep away the people in Nomi County who had the ability to threaten the safety of the Tetori River waterway. They killed the people who were chilling and frightened. They killed as much as possible to frighten the effective forces in the four Kaga counties and ensured that the control of the two counties would not be disturbed. . In the afternoon of the same day, the Kira Navy's Iron Artillery Team and the Roo Team quickly landed and launched an attack on Nansheng Village. It was the first time for Kuuki Takamochi, the son of Kuuki Shigetaka, to preside over such a large-scale battle as the general of the navy reserve force. Only an 18-year-old young man was responsible for cooperating. Uesugi Masatora's Lulu attack knocked out the defensive power of Niansheng Village. The morale of the defenders in Xinsheng Village was low and the command was inconsistent. The general Xiguang Temple Zhenjiao led the main force back to Hotan Mountain City and completely abandoned this small city. Moreover, this walled city was not a solid defense. It could not hold on under the impact of iron cannons and siege rams. Before the city was broken, the officials from all walks of life were like eight immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers and escaping faster than the other. . Some of them ran away, but some didn't have time to escape. Ten thousand defenders scattered and seven thousand fled. The remaining three thousand were forced to surrender after the city gate was breached. Most of the officials who escaped did not end well either. Saito Nobubu, A cavalry team of 7,000 people led by Kakizaki Keie, Honjo Shigenaga and others ambushed at the intersections of various streets early, and when encountering the fleeing troops, the troops were able to catch them all. After capturing more than half of the defeated army, the subsequent defeated army wisely chose to escape over the mountains. The day after the capture of the Nasei Stronghold, the news that Kaga had suffered a disastrous defeat and lost nearly half of its troops was sent back to Echizen. Chaoshengji Kyoyoshi could not understand how it could fail so easily, and the Asakura army seemed to have received accurate information and stepped up its attack. Echizen's invasion and the huge military pressure from both sides made him wisely give up his plan to continue fighting. He sent envoys to ask for help from Ishiyama Honganji Temple. At the same time, envoys were sent to Echizen Ichijo Valley and Kaga Kanazawa Gobo to discuss matters related to peace. On the seventh day after the capture of Nansheng Village, K¨±zozoyama Castle and Nabeya Castle near the Ti River were captured, and Nigo Castle and Torio Castle in the upper reaches of the Tetori River also fell because their castle lords were killed. Seto Maruyama Castle and Shozakidate Castle in the upper reaches of the Tetori River surrendered. The defenders of Iwakura Castle, Oyama Castle, and Iwabuchi Castle, which were surrounded on all sides, also abandoned the castle and fled soon after. At this point, they had reached Kaga. When the invasion was about to end, envoys from the Asakura family and the Kaga Ichikazu clan had already arrived at the front line. The messenger of the Asakura family is the governor of the Asakura family's Etsuchu family. Asakura Keiren, the lord of Asakurayama Castle who holds one of the two positions in Ichijo Valley. When he saw Masatora Uesugi, he strongly questioned the Kira family's failure to abide by the covenant. , launched an unauthorized attack on Nomi County on the south bank of the Sichuan River. The Asakura family expressed great indignation at the Kira family's untrustworthy behavior. Asakura Kerenkai made such a fierce statement that he did not really intend to do anything to the Kira family, leaving aside the astonishing record of 30,000 people annihilating 120,000 people., it was the joint battle of Xinshengzhai that was fought just a few days ago. In the war of 29,000 against 60,000, not only did they achieve a complete victory, beheading 13,000 and captured 7,000, they also achieved an impressive record in the subsequent siege and pursuit battle. A total of 30,000 prisoners were killed. Such an astonishing record could not be achieved even by the Asakura family's Dinghaishenzhen Asakura Soutei when he was still alive. It is undeniable that Asakura Sotechi has always faced Kaga's elite main force in his life, and Uesugi Masatora's amazing record in the battle of Kosei Village is largely due to Kaga's always disloyalty in the army. It was due to poor command and coordination, but no matter how many objective reasons they had, they might not be able to achieve the same effect. At least the Asakura family did not have an elite cavalry team of 7,000, and it was impossible to achieve a small loss in exchange for Kaga's usual one-handed three. More than ten thousand people were killed and captured. Asakura Keiren angrily denounced and found that the effect was almost non-existent, Uesugi Masatora held a rosary in his hands and meditated expressionlessly, Kakizaki Keike pinched the tiger's beard and seemed to be smiling, Saito Asanobu's eyes inadvertently swept over like a blade. Sharp and cold, Benzhuo Fanchang glared at him with arrogance, as if he was silently expressing his disdain for them. Hojo Takahiro, Kurokawa Kiyomizu and others were not that excessive, but they had somewhat disdainful expressions in their eyes. Under the sneers and gazes of this group of arrogant soldiers, Asakura Keiren found that he had to find a step for himself to come down. He coughed dryly and said: "My lord is considerate and eradicates Kaga's eagerness like the main hall. From now on Starting from today, all the land occupied by the Kira family in Nomi County will belong to you. The agreement between the two parties is still valid. How about just redrawing the middle line here? "Before coming over, he had already quietly observed the 30,000 Kira army. Elite. In particular, the tyranny of the 7,000 horsemen who swept through half of Nomi County and captured the Ichichi sect believers in Nomi County is extremely memorable. Before this war, the Asakura family had a strong impression of the national power of Echigo country and the military power of the Kira family. They have always lacked the impression of a system. There is always a voice in Ichijodani City in Echizen Province, which thinks that the Echigo Kira family is nothing more than that, and it has nothing to do with us being so far away. Only when I saw it today did I realize that all of this was very close to me, and these 30,000 people were the powerful army that annihilated the captives of 120,000 Kaga Ichiki and invaded Kaga and then defeated the 60,000 Kaga Ichiki. This news has not yet been If it comes to Kinei, it will definitely cause an uproar. He really can't imagine that if he offends the Kira family recklessly, he will suffer as much damage as Kaga has always done. Uesugi Masatora had no intention of leaving Asakura Keiren alone. He responded politely: "Gentosukeden should know the reason why we crossed the Tetori River. The covenant between the Ashikaga family and the Asakura family was to jointly eradicate the Kaga Ichikui, and then divide the territory according to their respective spheres of influence. Today I will save you three times." Wan Jing Rui took the first step to seize the two northern counties, and the Asakura family had not even entered Kaga. They launched an attack on Munaka with an army of 60,000. How can we ensure the stability of Tetori River if our army does not move? " " That's right!" Asakura Keiren really didn't know how to answer. The alliance between the two parties was just to carve up Kaga Country. It's not a so-called unbreakable blood alliance, or even an ordinary in-law alliance. This kind of interest alliance is neither reliable nor stable, and the alliance may be shelved or even terminated at any time. It is true that the treaty signed by the two parties was based on the Tetori River to demarcate the border, but the actual effect of the demarcation was still determined by strength. For example, if the Asakura family suddenly used force to defeat Echizen Ichikui, and then invaded Kaga to seize the four Kaga counties and Kanazawa Obo. At that time, Ishikawa County and Hebei County will definitely not be spit out in accordance with the covenant. Similarly, the Kira family cannot be asked to spit out the territory of Nomi County. It is really difficult for him to seize the initiative in negotiations with the covenant. The sign of the shogunate will probably not be able to suppress the group of reckless people in Echigo, and it may be self-defeating and tear the covenant into pieces. By then, Kira's army will launch a massive attack on Kaga Province, and Nomi County and Enuma County will soon fall into their hands. The remnants of the Kaga Ichiku clan will push into Echizen and become a pure Echizen Ichiku clan. Instead, you lose more. Seeing Asakura Keiren's depressed look as he wanted to speak but didn't dare, Uesugi Masatora smiled and said, "Then Gentosukeden can understand the reason why we attacked Nomi County? In order to ensure that the Tetori River coast will no longer be attacked by Kaga. Invasion, the Wada Choshoji Temple must be pulled out, so that the safety of the entire Tetori River can be guaranteed, and Motoki Minato can sleep peacefully. It must be used in Tsuruga Port, and Mikuni Minato's Asakura family does not need this small A small seaport! " "A small seaport yes! We don't need it very much!" Asakura Kageren said with a grimace, and Mitsu Nanato became "a small seaport". He had nothing to say. The Kira family was obviously unwilling to share the convenience of the Tetori River with the Asakura family. Even though Asakura Keiren knew that this would harm the interests of the Asakura family, he could not find a way to stop it. The hand can't reach the front line of the Tori River in the central part of Kaga country. Even if it can be stretched out, it still has to be weighed whether it can withstand the strong force of the Kira Army.?Combat strength. This is an era where might is truth, and a strong fist means a strong talk. What's more, the request made by Masatora Uesugi is reasonable. Even if he now proposes to modify the boundary line to divide the power between Nomi County and Enuma County, he will not Fafa insists on rejecting this proposal. Just doing this will definitely break the covenant completely. He can now be sure that the Kira family will not do such irrational behavior. According to the original negotiation plan formulated by Ichijo Valley, it was definitely a loss. However, the current situation is no better than in the past. When he left Ichijo Valley, the battle at Nanshengzhai had not yet begun. The Asakura family only received the message that Kaga had sent troops northward. After hearing the news, he was urgently sent to contact the Kira family to discuss the elimination of the Kaga Ichika clan and reaffirm their respective spheres of influence. When Asakura Kage ran to Kanazawa Gobo and found that his attack was in vain, and then came to the front line of Nisheng Village, he realized that half of Nomi County had been captured in just seven or eight days. Maybe he had arrived half as late. There is no guarantee that Yue will really be pushed outside Enuma County. As the Asakura family's diplomatic pursuit, he has no way out. All the plans agreed at Ijogaya have failed. He can only bite the bullet and argue with Uesugi Masatora on the principle of the covenant. In the end, nothing happens. If it doesn't work, you can only give up some of the benefits with a grimace. He did not choose to procrastinate because he wanted to avoid long nights and nightmares. If there was another incident in Kaga Kingdom, his existence as a messenger would be almost meaningless. By then, not only would he be unable to obtain the due benefits for the Asakura family, but he would also ruin such a great opportunity. The timing was good, so Asakura Keiren decided to sign a new agreement even though he knew he would lose money. Asakura Keiren left in a hurry after receiving an unsatisfactory answer. Masatora Uesugi also met with the envoy of the Kaga Ichik¨ sect, Senshuji Kenkai. Senshuji Temple is the headquarters of the Takata sect of Jodo Shinshu, and its status within Jodo Shinshu is similar to that of the Takada sect. The Honganji sect is compared to the Honganji sect, and people around the world refer to it as the Honganji sect with contempt, but the Takada sect's main mountain Ise Senshuji Temple is highly praised. In the sixth year of Kansho period (1465), Honganji Renyo was in opposition to the Takada sect's Senshuji Shinkei. In the first year of Onin (1467), Mount Hiei Enryaku Temple designated Honganji Renyo as an enemy of the Buddha, and Honganji Renyo was He fled to Kanta for refuge in panic, and later fled to Hokuriku for refuge after the Onin Rebellion. As Honganji Rennyu was suppressed by Enryakuji Temple, Senshuji Masui also provoked suppression within the Hokurikudo Jodo Shinshu due to his actions against Honganji Rennyu, and had to give up his missionary work in Hokurikudo and go to Ise instead. Kunichi Khitada established Mu-ry¨ju-in, and then moved the Senshu-ji Temple to Ise Mu-ry¨-ju-in Temple. The remaining Senshu-ji Temple stayed in Kaga Province and continued to develop, gradually integrating into the Honganji sect. The Senshuji Kenkai is a powerless scholarly monk within the Kaga Ichigo sect. He usually does some copywriting work with great writing skills, or travels between Kinai Ishiyama Honganji Temple and Echizen Choshoji Temple. This time he was assigned It was a helpless move to come over to serve as a diplomatic envoy. Several diplomatic monks who were originally in Kaga either died in Etsuchu or were trapped in Kanazawa Gobo as prisoners. He had to make do with this learned monk. (To be continued.
