Carefully tidying up the big armor on his body again, the Hojo clan's eyes were like electricity, looking at the camp of the Uesugi army at the foot of the mountain, and the vast torches like the starry sky connected to the sky, enveloping Fuchu Castle like a torrent. "Lord Zhou's defense! Was my father like that back then? "As soon as the Hojo clan thought of the Hojo clan's Yasuma's miraculous night battle of Kawagoe, his blood couldn't help but boil: I want to surpass my father and once again become the overlord of Kanto!

Duomu Yuanzhong nodded vigorously, and said with great certainty: "Not bad!" The lord will definitely be able to surpass the old lord and lead the Hojo family back to the pinnacle of hegemony! ”

Tominaga Naokatu, whose hair was already gray, also spoke: "The armies of the Takeda family and the Imagawa family are already in place and ready to launch an offensive at any time!" ”

"Oh!" The military allocation in the hands of the proud Hojo clan political general was fiercely suppressed: "Out of battle!! ”

Tamu Mototada and the others responded violently, and the sound of killing in the lonely mountains suddenly shook the sky, and countless Hojo samurai swept towards the camp of the Uesugi army like tigers descending from the mountain. "Victory !!" Duomu Yuanzhong brandished his sword and roared, and his subordinate Heibei as the vanguard immediately shouted "Victory!! The frenzy soon spread, and the cries of victory suddenly resounded in the sky. The night battle of Kawagoe can be called the pinnacle of the Hojo samurai regiment, the Hojo family from the Hojo early cloud era has become extremely prosperous after the war, but the most elite samurai regiment of the Hojo family was completely destroyed in the second Kokufutai battle, and the young samurai who admired the bravery of their ancestors did not have much actual combat experience, and many of them even had just entered the gensu, and the natural fear of death disappeared in the roar of victory, and everyone had only one belief: we had won from the time we launched the attack! It's just that no one notices the decisive look in the eyes of veterans like Tamu Mototada and Tominaga Naokaka.

At this time, the Battle of Fuchu Castle was completely different from the night battle of Kawagoe, although there was also Hojo Tsunari to contain a large number of enemy troops, but the elite samurai regiment that Hojo three generations painstakingly built was gone, and the current Hojo Army seriously lacked veterans who had been in battle for a long time, not to mention the absence of ministers such as Daidoji Masashiro, Hojo Tsunataka, and Kasahara Yasukatsu, making the combat strength of the Hojo Army at this time far less than that of the Kawagoe Night War. However, the Uesugi army achieved nominal unity of command, which was very different from the chaotic coalition army at the beginning, and it did not go through half a year of suffering in the offensive and defensive battle of Kawagoe Castle, so it can be said that it was the time when the army was in its prime......

Uesugi Kenmasa and others, who were in a meeting, heard the shouts and killings outside, and suddenly got up, and Uesugi Kenmasa, who had had an experience, suddenly flicked his sleeves: "All arms for war!" ”

"Oh!!" The crowd returned to their barracks and kicked the sleeping samurai up to wake up Ashigaru and prepare to meet the enemy.

Hojo Clan watched excitedly and expectantly as the samurai under his command bravely rushed forward to slash the Uesugi army and successfully entered the camp, and he secretly felt relieved in his heart, but he had a trace of contempt for the war: it seemed that it was nothing more than that. But soon, the Hojo clan almost stared out of his eyes: although the Uesugi army was chaotic and was caught off guard by the Hojo army, an army of thousands of people quickly rushed here, instantly blocking the attacking Hojo army, and the young Hojo samurai struggled to resist in front of the other party, but it was still difficult to move forward, but was beaten back by the opponent's gun array. Just when the Hojo clan was surprised, the sound of thunderous horses' hooves sounded, and the cavalry of the brigade suddenly killed from the flank of the Hojo army, and the Hojo army was in chaos, and Tominaga Naokakatsu hurriedly led Qingbei to resist, but was still repelled by the other party!

At this time, the Hojo clan realized that the other party was not an ordinary Uesugi army at all, but the Murakami cavalry! The world's strongest army that almost crippled the elite soldiers of Koshin under Toishi Castle! The thousands of troops who came to the aid were none other than the North Shinano Army under the command of Murakami Yoshikiyo! Although the place of Koshin is full of mountains and rivers, the land is barren, but it has always been connected with military disasters, the people are fierce and aggressive, many of them are old people who fight in battle, and the Hojo samurai, who are very experienced and seriously inexperienced, may still be able to fight to the death in the chaotic battle, but once the other party forms a battle formation and fights head-on, it is like a hedgehog, and there is no way to start. If you talk about combat power alone, the North Shinano Army is even above the Ueno Samurai Regiment in some aspects, and the commander Murakami Yoshikiyo is not inferior to Nagano Yoshimasa and Kohata Kenshige, and he is the only one in history who can make Takeda Harunobu taste a fiasco, which even Uesugi Kenshin, the Echigo military god, cannot do. The new generation of the Hojo Samurai Regiment was completely unable to break through the defense line of the Kitashinano Army without the command of Hojo Tsunari, and there was a tendency to be forced out of the Uesugi military camp.

The generals of the Takeda family, who were watching the battle from the sidelines, shook their heads slightly, and Takeda Yoshinobu, who also came to the battlefield to train, sneered even more, and said to Takeda Shinfan: "Uncle, the Hojo samurai are just like that, I really don't know how they have fought for the hegemony of Kanto for so many years." ”

Takeda Nobuyo's eyes were as calm as water, and he said, "Taro, you are too anxious. ”

"Oh?" Yoshinobu Takeda was slightly stunned. "Does the Hojo family still have a backhand?"

Iifu Huchang, who was on the side, smiled and pointed to Fuzhong Castle: "Hojo Tsunari, who is the most warlike in the Hojo family, is not in the Hojo Army at the moment, but sits in Fuzhong Castle to contain the main force of the Uesugi Army. Since Murakami Yoshikiyo is facing the Hojo family, then Kohata Akabi must still be under Fuchu Castle, but this is our chance. ”

Takeda Yoshinobu shook his head: "This battle is related to the life and death of the Hojo family, why do you want to keep this hand?" If the main force of the Hojo family is defeated, then Hojo Tsunari will not be able to return to the sky. ”

"For the prestige of the governor." Takeda Nobufan got up and shook off the dew on his body, and slowly raised his military armament: "The Hojo clan is young and in power, although it does have the ability to unite the retainers from the left and right, but it lacks the prestige of the retainers, and this battle is precisely to establish the prestige of the Hojo clan." Army! Out of the !! ”

"Young master, this time you want to set an example as the successor of my Takeda family, so let's temporarily join the Red Reserve Team." Itomi Huchang turned on his horse and said to the young Takeda Yoshinobu with a smile. The Hojo family hoped to use this battle to establish the prestige of the Hojo clan, so why didn't the Takeda family have similar plans? Moreover, the land of Koshin is the most important military achievement, and if there is no excellent merit, the Kai ministers will not obey Takeda Yoshinobu.

"Oh!" The corners of Takeda Yoshinobu's mouth were slightly raised, although he was still young, but he also showed the unique heroism of the Kai people, jumped on horseback, took the ten-character gun handed by the side, and followed the rolling torrent of the Takeda Red Reserve to attack the Uesugi army camp.

And Asahina Taino also issued an order to send troops, but unlike the Hojo family and the Takeda family, Asahina Taino represents more of the will of the Imagawa family's important ministers, although he has always been close to Imagawa Yoshimoto, but the ass determines the head, and interests determine the thinking, before the war, Asahina Taino resolutely rejected Taiyuan Yukisai's proposal to let the Imagawa clan Shinya participate in the war. Imagawa Yoshimoto was helpless against Asahina Taineng, after all, the important ministers didn't want a wise and martial young master to appear in the Imagawa family anyway, but Imagawa Yoshimoto still resolutely handed over the several reserves he had set up to Asahina Taino, and told him that either you take them with you, or you can only send out the private soldiers of the Asahina family, and you can do it yourself. For this arrangement, Asahina Taineng did not object, after all, the battlefield is not connected to the Imagawa family, and even if he wins, there is no way to grab the fief, so he actually doesn't care so much about the outcome of this battle.
