Hojo Takahiro was very angry, he wanted to argue with Yoshinaga, but Honjo and others came forward to comfort Hojo Takahiro to calm down the matter.

In fact, Okuma Asahide's position in the Uesugi family is very dangerous, and he has a great conflict with Honjo and others, and historically because Naoe Keitsuna and they agreed on an agreement to bind the retainers.

And this agreement directly harmed the interests of Daxiong Chaoxiu, so Daxiong Chaoxiu would rebel.

The reason why Hojo Takahiro was dissatisfied was that he felt that Yoshinaga was not from the Uesugi family, and he was not qualified to cut off the name of the Uesugi family.

However, a group of important ministers and retainers did not stand on his side, and Hojo Takahiro died down.

The news of Asahide Okuma's beheading by Yoshinaga soon spread to the countries of Kanto, along with the news of the disappearance of Masako Uesugi.

The first to be scared was Uesugi Kenmasa of Hirai Castle, and he began to be frightened before the rebellion of the people in the southeastern part of the Kanto, and now Uesugi Masatoshi is missing, and Ogasawara Yoshinaga enters Echigo and executes Okuma Asahide.

In his opinion, is it that Ogasawara Yoshinaga killed Uesugi Masatoka, and Okuma Asahide was dissatisfied and sent troops to rebel?

Uesugi Kenmasa, who was very worried, immediately found the retainer Nagano Yoshimasa, who is currently most relied on.

Nagano Yoshimasa naturally knew the news, and he hurriedly set off from Minowa Castle to Hirai Castle.

As soon as Uesugi Kenmasa saw Nagano Yoshimasa, he hurriedly put down his wine glass and hurriedly asked, "Ueno Mamoru, has Ako Masato been killed by Mamoru Shinano?" ”

Nagano Yoshimasa's original official position was Shinano Mamoru from the fifth position, but because Yoshinaga was a veritable Shinano Mamoru , therefore, Yoshicho suggested that Nagano Yoshimasa be Ueno Mamoru .

Originally, Mamoru Ueno was concurrently served by the Kanto family, but Uesugi Masatori felt that he owed Yoshina, and it happened that Nagano Ye was taking refuge in him, so Nagano Mamoru became Mamoru Ueno.

Nagano Ye was sitting cross-legged below, bowed slightly, and said: "The main hall, this is all rumors, the city lord of Usami has already secretly believed in it, and the palace is running away from home."

Mamoru Shinano was invited by the lord of Usami Castle to stabilize the situation, but Okuma Asahide had a dispute with the important ministers in the family and did not cooperate with Mamoru Shinano, so he was attacked by Mamoru Shinano. ”

Uesugi Kenmasa listened to Nagano Yoshimasa's words, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I see, Shinano Mamoru is here to help, alas, how confused is my son Masato?

How can you run away from home at such a critical time? Next year, there will be a big war in Kanto! How good is that? ”

Nagano Yemasa shook his head and said, "There is no need to panic in the main hall, Shinano Mamoru probably knows where the palace has gone, and it will only take a month or two to get His Highness back." ”

Uesugi Kenmasa picked up the wine glass, nodded and said, "This is very good, I hope that Masaho can put down the Kanto Rebellion as soon as possible." ”

Nagano Ye bowed and nodded: "Ha!" Then he got up and left.

......

Furukawa Castle, Ohiroma.

Furukawa Gongfang Ashikaga Yoshishi picked up a fan to cover his mouth and smiled: "Hehehe, Uesugi Masata is missing, and now Ogasawara Yoshinaga has entered the Uesugi family, and Echigo chaos is imminent!" ”

Satomi Yoshiyao said: "I'm afraid it's not that simple, the lord of Usami Castle under Uesugi Masatoshi is resourceful, and Naoe Keitsuna is an important minister of Uesugi Masatora in the first middle school, and he is extremely loyal.

If Ogasawara Yoshinaga seized the position of Uesugi Masatora, the lord of Usami Castle and Naoe Keixuna would definitely oppose it, and there is no such news yet, so I am afraid there is some secret in this. ”

Narita Nagata said angrily: "Anyway, Uesugi Masatora is gone, the position of Kanto governor is vacant, and Ogasawara Yoshinaga can't lead Echigo and Shangshan Chaoning and Utsunomiya them, this is a good opportunity!" ”

The young Hojo clan did not speak, he looked at Satomi Yoshiyao.

Satomi Yoshiyao understood what Hojo meant, so he said: "Your Highness, Narita, this matter is not simple, now the countrymen of Echigo are sitting and watching Ogasawara Yoshicho attack and kill Okuma Asahide, it can be seen that Ogasawara Yoshicho is prestigious."

Moreover, Ogasawara Yoshinaga is now the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, and because Kamirako has accumulated extremely high prestige, if he really goes to war, the outcome is unknown.

The situation is not yet clear, and the soldiers cannot be gathered, and I am afraid that we will not be able to gather enough soldiers until the end of September, so we should wait and see for now. ”

Mibu Tsunao took the opportunity to say, "Since you can't start a big battle with Uesugi Masato, why don't you take this opportunity to cut off its wings?"

Now that the Utsunomiya family is still weak, they only need His Royal Highness the Gong Fang to borrow the soldiers and horses and righteousness in the next place, and they can be sure to break through the Utsunomiya Castle! ”

Although Ashikaga Yoshishi is young, he is very intelligent, and he smiled: "Why should I lend you soldiers? When the farm is over, I will personally lead the troops to defeat Utsunomiya! ”

Mibu Tsuno's face was a little ugly, and he hurriedly said, "How can this bother His Highness to recruit in person?" The battlefield is really dangerous, so let it be done for you. ”

Ashikaga Yoshiji smiled and said, "You can do it for you if you want, but the territory you conquer will be distributed by your own family." ”

Mibu Tsunayo was stunned for a moment, his face darkened, and said: "Then you will need to rely on His Highness's army, otherwise, it will take a lot of effort to capture Utsunomiya Castle." ”

Ashikaga Yoshishi snorted coldly, waved his hand and said, "If there is nothing else, let's disperse." ”

Tsunayo Mibu was the first to get up and leave, followed by the Hojo clan.

After he went out, he found his retainer Tamu Motozhong and told him what had just happened.

Tamu Motozhong nodded and said: "Fortunately, the troops were not sent immediately, Ogasawara Yoshinaga entered Echigo, but there was no large-scale turmoil, it can be seen that Uesugi Masatoshi should still be there, maybe it is some kind of plan."

Moreover, Ogasawara Yoshinaga is good at attacking, and if the soldiers and horses of Echigo listen to his orders, our coalition forces will not be sure of victory, so the lord will wait and see. ”

Hojo Clan nodded and said, "I understand, let's do this for the time being." ”

......

Echigo, outside Kasugayama Castle, a fast horse carrying the flag of the Ogasawara family crest quickly ran over and shouted, "Shinano urgent! There is news of His Highness Uesugi! ”

The generals defending the city immediately ordered their men to remove the antlers and open the road for the cavalry to enter.

This Haruyama Castle was built from the bottom up, and it happened that a big road led to Honmaru, and the cavalry rushed directly to Honmaru all the way, and the horse ran off the road, and was directly tired and foamed, and fell to the ground.

The samurai hurriedly got up and shouted, "Hurry up and go in and report!" ”

At the city gate, the military commander immediately shouted a few people to carry the samurai and ran to the castle tower, and at the same time sent someone to inform the important ministers.

When Yoshicho heard the voice, he quickly got up and ran out of his yard, and when he saw several samurai carrying a samurai in armor, he shouted, "What an emergency! ”

The samurai shouted loudly: "My lord, there is news about His Highness Uesugi, and Bedang from Zenkoji Temple has discovered His Highness Uesugi, but he disappeared this morning!" ”

Yoshicho hurriedly said, "You rest first." Hurry up and call the Usami Castle Lord to discuss things! ”

As soon as his voice fell, the three of Usami Dingman came running.

Kakizaki Keike shouted, "Ogasawara Palace, but there is news of my lordship?" ”

Yoshicho hurriedly said: "Exactly, Zhenghu Gong appeared in Zenkoji Temple, but he disappeared again in the morning. ”

Usami said with joy on his face: "It's good to have news, so it seems that the lord is still in Shinano, I'll wait to ride a horse to chase after it, and I can find the lord in two days at most!" ”

Yoshichang immediately said, "Okay, the three of you will prepare immediately, and I will go with you." ”

Usami Dingman and the others immediately went back and took people out of the city to wait, Yoshicho followed with a group of attendants, and a group of more than 100 people left Kasuga Mountain Castle directly.

They rushed all the way to Zenko-ji Temple, and when it was evening, they arrived at Zenko-ji Temple, and when Yoshinaga arrived, Takanashi Masayori had already come out to greet him.

As soon as Takanashi Masayori saw Yoshinaga, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord, His Royal Highness Uesugi has been found, and now he has been invited to the temple." ”

Yi Chang was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Didn't you say that you had disappeared in the morning?" ”

Takanashi Masayori replied: "The minister also ran into it by accident, His Royal Highness Uesugi insisted on leaving, and the minister could only use some tough measures. ”

Yoshicho patted Takanashi Masayori on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I won't blame you, take me to see Masahoko." ”

Takanashi Masayori immediately led Yoshinaga and Usami Joman into the temple, and then came to a small room.

Yoshicho pushed the door in, and at a glance he saw Uesugi Masatori, who was wearing a white coarse cloth monk's robe and a hat next to the bed.

And Uesugi Masato has cut his hair short, and his face is also unshaven, living up to his graceful and luxurious appearance.

After Yoshicho came in, Uesugi Masato's body shook, but he didn't open his eyes, but recited Buddhist scriptures.

Then Usami Dingman and the others entered the room, and Kakizaki Keiya and Naoe Keixuna stepped forward and shouted: "Lord, why are you so ruthless and run away from home, as soon as you leave, what will the Uesugi family do!" ”

Uesugi Masahu clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, the poor monk is already an outsider, and he has decided not to take care of these mundane things, so go find someone else." ”

Kakizaki Jingjia shouted: "My lord, the position of the governor of the Uesugi family can only be yours!" ”

Naoe Keixuna also said: "Is the lord going to watch the Uesugi family be destroyed like this? Do you want to watch Echigo fall into the flames of war? Or did you watch Echigo being invaded by another country? ”

Uesugi Masatora still closed his eyes and said, "If Echigo becomes like that, it's all fate." ”

"That's not right!" Yoshicho immediately shouted, "Echigo was attacked because you left Echigo!"

Those young people were afraid of the political tiger workers and did not dare to invade the Yuehou. You should understand. ”

Uesugi Masako opened his eyes and choked up, "Poor monk... Successful... At this moment, it is also appropriate to retreat bravely from the rapids. ”

Yichang stepped forward and said: "Zhenghu Gong, the righteousness of the world has not been lifted up, Zhenghu Gong, you are escaping from the battle!"

Without Zhenghugong, there will be wars in Kanto in September at most, and the order you established before will collapse immediately, do you want to watch the righteousness being trampled on by traitors? ”

Uesugi Masahu said with tears in his eyes: "Yi Changyu, the poor monk can't even manage a Echigo, how can you talk about Kanto?" Poor monks' talents are limited! ”
