Chapter Fifty-Nine: Eating Melons?

Mr. Yazawa looked at Ueda Nobukata with admiration in his eyes.

He said, "Originally, I thought that if Sanada sent someone to me, I would join forces with him and give Toishi Castle to Takeda, but now, I have changed my mind.

Rather than letting Takeda take charge of Shinano, it's better for us Shinano people to take care of it ourselves, Ueda, your ability is good, why don't you come and help me, how about it? ”

Ueda Nobukata was a little hesitant on his face, but in his heart he didn't think much of Yazawa was so beautiful, he Yazawa was just a samurai who was not much stronger than himself.

The position of the lord of this stone castle is not his, and now Ueda Nobukata still bears the position of the castle generation, and when he takes Matsuo Castle, the position of the lord of the castle will be handed over to Yamada Kunimasa, a retainer of Murakami Yoshikiyo.

What Yasawa can get his hands on is his family name, and in the Murakami family, his family is very high.

Ueda Nobukata looked at the very arrogant Yazawa total weight in front of him, and he felt that this person would become a time bomb, so it was better to clear it as soon as possible.

He hurriedly said: "Yazawa, please don't say such things again, I don't have such plans yet." ”

Yazawa just smiled: "When you think clearly, you can come to me." ”

Waiting for Yazawa to leave, Ueda Nobukata's face became gloomy, he held the wine saucer, threw it out directly, and scolded angrily: "What do you want me to be his retainer?" See if I don't kill him! ”

"Yuan Lian!" Ueda Nobukata shouted out of thin air, and Motoren, who was hiding in the dark grid, opened the door.

"My lord."

"I went to Katsuro Castle overnight and told the lord that he said that Yazawa was overweight because of the uneven distribution of iron cannons, and he wanted to join forces with Sanada Yutaka and take Toishi Castle." Ueda Nobukata spoke, and then quickly wrote a letter to him and handed it to him.

Yuan connected the letter and disappeared into the night.

Murakami Yoshikiyo was very sensitive to the rebellion of his retainers at this time, and after receiving information from Ueda Nobukata, he immediately sent Iizuna to monitor Yazawa Soshige.

Yazawa did not know that Ueda Nobukata had betrayed him, and often said things that resented Murakami Yoshikiyo and Yashiro Masakoku.

Iizuna immediately told Murakami Yoshikiyo about these things, and Murakami Yoshikiyo was furious.

Then he asked Iizuna to find an opportunity to assassinate Yazawa Zongzhong.

Just two days after Ueda Nobukata betrayed Yazawa Total Shige, Yasawa General Shige was found dead in his room.

The Sakudai people were indignant, and Ueda Nobukata took the opportunity to publicize that it was the Takeda family who did it, and the Sakudai people in the city were extremely angry with the Takeda family for a while.

My wife Kiyotsuna found Ueda Nobukata and said, "Ueda Maki, Yazawa died too miserably, the Takeda family is so despicable that they actually sent Ranbo to assassinate Yazawa, we must take revenge!" ”

Ueda Nobukata said pretendedly: "Yes, it's too despicable, the people of the Takeda family can't win against Yasawa on the battlefield, so they use this method."

Azuma Matsuki, don't worry, I will definitely capture Matsuo Castle and avenge Yazawa! ”

My wife Kiyotsuna nodded and said, "Ueda Matsune, when you attack Matsuo Castle, you must call the upper and lower levels, and the lower ones are willing to help!" ”

When Ueda Nobukata heard this, he smiled in his heart, he didn't expect that betraying Yazawa would have such a result.

He appeased his wife Kiyotsuna and Saku, and then asked Motoren to deliver the letter.

He had to explain to Sanada why Mr. Yasawa died.

Sanada Yutaka received a letter here, and learned that Yasawa was discovered by Murakami Yoshikiyo's Hosaku because he was open-mouthed, and he was assassinated, and he was speechless for a while.

The next day, Ueda Nobukata finally gathered the army in Toishi Castle, and with the help of Azuma Kiyotsuna, his army was as high as more than a thousand!

Ueda Nobukata had already scattered all his wealth, bought food and armaments for a month's war, set up a headquarters in Toishi Castle, and erected the banner of the Murakami family.

Sanada Yutaka is also ready for the cage castle and waits for Ueda Nobukata to attack the castle.

Although Ueda Nobukata set up the main camp of Toishi Castle, he did not stay in the castle, but personally led his troops out of the battle, leaving 300 men in the castle and leading 700 men himself to Matsuo Castle.

In the morning, the civilians who had nothing to do around brought their families and brought stools to eat, and watched not far away.

Ueda Nobukata appeared in the military formation wearing his dazzling hat, and Ueda Nobukata looked more than 1.7 meters tall in the hat, standing out in the queue.

Even Sanada Yutaka and others in the city had to say: What a fierce general!

Ueda Nobukata raised his spear and shouted, "Blow the trumpet!" Beat the drums! ”

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

Inside the castle, Sanada Yutaka shouted, "Prepare, wait for the enemy to approach!" ”

Ueda Nobukata hid behind the wooden tree and led the iron artillery team to go first, followed by hundreds of ashigaru, one of which was carried by the castle tree.

Matsuo Castle was built on a hillside, and Ueda Nobukata had to attack it from the back, so he prepared a lot of wooden cannons to protect the iron artillery team near the castle.

The slope in front of Matsuo Castle is more than thirty meters, which is exactly within the range of the archers, and as soon as the enemy army begins to climb, the archers will shoot arrows.

However, Ueda Nobukata's army stopped before reaching the hillside, because this distance was already within the range of the iron cannon's accurate fire.

Sanada Yutaka saw Ueda Nobukata stop, and immediately said, "Pay attention to dodge..."

"Shoot!"

"Bang bang bang..."

A burst of gunshots rang out, directly interrupting Sanada Yutaka's words, and the wooden walls of Matsuo Castle were hit with sawdust flying, and in some places they were directly damaged, and Ashigaru, who was hiding behind, was shot and wailed.

Those civilians who watched the play heard this kind of sound, and they were frightened and fled in all directions, the children were so frightened that they cried their fathers and called their mothers, and the onlookers fell into chaos.

Ueda Nobufang slandered: You deserve it, you still come to see the excitement when Lao Tzu fights, it's okay to win, don't you just watch my joke if you lose? Scared you to death.

In Matsuo Castle, Sanada Yutaka was also taken aback, and he was surprised: "Although I have heard Kansuke say that the iron cannon will be a sharp weapon to change the current war.

Although I have seen the use of iron cannons before, I have never believed it, but now, I believe it. ”

Haruhara Wakasa lowered his head and hurriedly said, "Lord, it's not safe here, let's go to a safer place!" ”

Sanada Yutaka waved his hand and said, "No, I can't leave here, as soon as I leave, the soldiers will not have the will to fight!" We're going to fight back, and as soon as Ueda Nobukata's iron artillery team gets up, we'll shoot arrows! ”

However, to Sanada Yutaka's helplessness, Ueda Nobukata seemed to know his thoughts, and directly asked the iron artillery team to hide behind the wooden tree and shoot, and the bow-footed light arrow was useless, but there were many casualties.

Sanada Yutaka frowned and glared, and said viciously: "The iron cannon can't shoot for a long time, I think he still has a few shots!" ”
