Before the arrival of the war, the entire Koshin was quiet, but the movements behind the scenes became more and more frequent.

Takeda Harunobu sent people to omit Ogasawara Nagato's retainers, especially Ina-gun, who lost contact with Ogasawara Nagato, and was the most likely to be dismissed.

On behalf of Murakami Yoshikiyo, the Rakuwanji Hikari clan went to Rinjo to negotiate with Ogasawara Nagatoki.

Ogasawara was not in a hurry at first, and asked Murakami Yoshikiyo to come to the rescue in the name of guardianship.

Of course, the Rakuyanji Mitsushi refused, so he immediately moved out of Takanashi Masanori and directly told Ogasawara that as long as you, the Shinano guardian, can deal with Takanashi Masanori, our Murakami family can send troops.

Otherwise, then don't talk about it, the Murakami family has already taken a great risk if he can agree to send troops, and you don't give any benefit to this guardian, it's just a pipe dream.

Ogasawara's retainers immediately advised Ogasawara to delay it for a long time, and the time was about to reach the autumn harvest, and it was impossible for the Takeda family to start a large-scale war.

After the autumn harvest, Shinano enters the cold winter, when the goose feather snow falls, and when it is several meters deep, it is difficult to march.

Wait until next year, at least after March or April, before the Takeda family can prepare a large army to attack the Ogasawara family, so there is no need to rush for the time being.

Regarding the attitude of the Ogasawara family, the Rakuyanji Mitsu clan had already expected that although Ogasawara was tied with Murakami Yoshikiyo as the four major Shinano generals for a long time, he was actually promoted.

Ogasawara was not very talented for a long time, and he was very proud and arrogant, but he was very thick-skinned. Compared to Ogasawara Nagato, the Ogasawara Nagato, who united the divided Ogasawara family, that is, Ogasawara's father, his talent is slightly superior.

After all, it was he who ended the split of the Ogasawara family and laid the foundation for Ogasawara for a long time, but unfortunately it was hockeyed out later.

The Rakuwaji Mitsushi passed Ogasawara's attitude back to the Murakami family, and Murakami Yoshikiyo was greatly dissatisfied, he looked down on Ogasawara Nagasa, after all, he was his defeated subordinate.

He also looked down on Takeda Harunobu, because Takeda Harunobu was young and a defeated general, of course, Murakami Yoshikiyo lost once when Takeda Harunobu was just starting out.

At that time, it was Takeda Harunobu who had just expelled his father Takeda Nobuta, and Suwa Yorishige felt that it was an opportunity, so he called a large number of Shinano people to fight Takeda Harunobu.

The result, of course, was a big defeat. In this matter, Yoshikiyo Murakami was also involved.

Although Murakami Yoshikiyo was not satisfied with Ogasawara's attitude for a long time, the negotiations had to continue.

On the other side, Sanada Yutaka is gradually making contact with the retainers of the Murakami family, and in addition to Kiyohide Kiyono, there is also the lord of Terao Castle, Terao Shigeyori, who is also ready to move.

The location of Terao Castle is southeast of Kawanaka Island, and it is on the top of Okina-gun.

Sanada Yutaka returned to him mainly for the sake of Takanashi Masayori's side, in order to make Takeda Harunobu's attack on Kitazukima County smooth, Sanada Yutaka of course hopes that Murakami Yoshikiyoshi will focus on Takanashi Masayori's side.

Therefore, returning to the Murakami retainers around Kawanakama Island is also a goal of Sanada Yutaka's efforts.

Therefore, the Yayo family, who has long been the vanguard of dealing with Takanashi Masayori, is also the target of Sanada Yutaka's strategy.

The whole Shinano has entered a situation of mutual adjustment, which is all preparing for next year's big war.

Ueda Nobukata doesn't plan to be idle either, and if he wants to mix well, the Battle of Toishi Castle is his last chance.

After that, the ruin of the Murakami family was inevitable, Kiyono Kiyohide betrayed, Terao Shigeri betrayed, and Ueda Nobukata secretly collected evidence of some close contacts between his retainers and Sanada Yukitaka.

The Murakami family is definitely going to be in chaos for a while. But isn't this his chance for Ueda Nobukata?

When that group of old retainers died, he Ueda Nobufang would have a chance to ascend to the throne.

Therefore, in order to buy more time, Ueda Nobukata also decided to participate.

He immediately ran to Iizuna Shrine and recruited ten more ninjas.

He also had to send people to Takeda Harunobu's territory to mediate, and once Takeda Harunobu was defeated at Toishi Castle, these people would definitely rebel again.

There is also Koyamada Shinyu, he is a powerful country in the eastern part of Kai Province, and he is not absolutely sincere to the Takeda family, once there is a problem with the Takeda family, Koyamada Shinyu may pounce on it and take a bite, or even replace it.

After the people of Kitasaku Prefecture were pacified by Takeda Harunobu, they were severely punished by Takeda Harunobu, and many of them were cut off from Zhixing.

If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't win against Harunobu Takeda, how would they stop?

So Ueda Nobukata first set his sights on Kitasa-Saku-gun and Koyamada Nobuya.

Of course, Ueda Nobukata did not ask these countrymen to rebel now, or that Takeda Harunobu would rebel if he sent troops to Ishijo.

Instead, he asked these countrymen to accumulate strength and wait for the opportunity, and he also told them that the Murakami family would definitely defeat Takeda Harunobu.

Although the ninjas sent out by Ueda Nobukata swore true to their vows, few could believe it.

Ueda Nobukata was not frustrated by this, but tirelessly promoted all kinds of remarks in the Takeda family's territory that the Takeda family could not capture Toishi.

These movements are getting bigger and bigger, and Sanada Yutaka had noticed it a long time ago, and he just wanted to see what these strange people wanted to do, but later he found out that these people were ignoring the countrymen of Saku-gun.

After the failure of the adjustment, he began to spread rumors, and these operations surprised Sanada Yutaka for a moment.

He must now understand that these people were the people sent by Ueda Nobukata on behalf of Ishiki Castle.

He didn't expect that Ueda Nobukata seemed to know a lot about the tweak, which made Sanada a little worried.

There are few people who read, and there are no family experience, and most people don't know how to do it.

Unlike the current Internet era, even if you don't know, you can know a little bit about the Internet.

So he reported the matter to Harunobu Takeda.

After receiving the news, Takeda Harunobu was also surprised by this, and at the same time smiled at Komai Shiraishisai and said: "It seems that Ueda Nobukata, who killed Sakagaki Sensei, is not an idle person, presumably the teacher is also very relieved that he did not die at the hands of an unknown person." ”

Komai Shiraishi nodded and said, "Sakagaki Gong must be very pleased. ”

At this time, there was a samurai outside who said that Oyamada Shinari had come to pay a visit.

Takeda Harunobu was a little surprised, and immediately let Koyamada Shinyu in.

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Takeda Harunobu asked, "I don't know if you have any important things to do today?" ”

Oyamada Nobuyu looked at Takeda Harunobu with a smile and said, "My lord, I do have a very interesting thing to share with my lord. ”

Takeda Harunobu narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Oh? If it's interesting to you, I'm going to have to hear it. ”

Oyamada Nobu nodded and said, "There is a monk (healer) who claims to be a retainer of the Ueda Nobukata family, named Nanhiro Ninan, and he came to me and told me that the lord's attack on the Murakami family will definitely fail, and he will suffer heavy losses.

At that time, Shinano will be in chaos, and if the minister falls into the well at this time, the Takeda family will definitely be in danger. Do you think it's funny? ”

Takeda Harunobu stared at Koyamada Nobuya intently, and said with a smile: "Interesting, this Ueda Nobukata is very interesting!" Not to be underestimated! ”
