The onset of the harsh winter has brought the originally chaotic Kita Ou region towards a brief period of peace. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The civil strife in the Date family began in the 11th year of Astronomy, and after two years of fighting and peace, the south-central region of Mutsu was still chaotic. There are many supporters of the Date Minoru sect, and they currently occupy an absolutely dominant position. Date Harumune is at a disadvantage overall, although there is his wife's maiden family, the Iwaki family, the younger brother of Minoru who stayed behind Jingmune, and Date Minoto and others to help, but compared to the "KFC luxury package" on Date Minoru's side, Date Harumune's situation is very embarrassing.

But even so, Date Harunzong still struggled to resist the attack of Date Minoru Sect's side.

In the Hazen area, the battle between the Mogami family and the Tendo family is still anxious, and although the two sides have temporarily ceased fighting after winter, there will definitely be another big battle in the coming year. On the Tagawa Prefecture, Daihoji Yoshimasu, with the support of the Echigo-Uesugi family, also repelled the attacks of wealthy clans such as the Sotsu family and the Shimizu family.

Originally, Daihoji Yoshizen wanted to use the reinforcements of the Uesugi family to solve the disobedient wealthy families such as the Satsushi family, but the Uesugi family itself was also unstable. After repelling the Shimizu family, the Uesugi family's forces withdrew to Echigo.

Now, Echigo's days of guarding Uesugi are not easy. First, there was a long tail for the scenery to beat himself up in embarrassment, and later the long tail Harujing has always been against Uesugi Dingshi. Originally, Uesugi had no children, and wanted to introduce Tokimunemaru, the son of Date Minoru, to inherit the Uesugi family.

Let's not mention that the matter of Shizongmaru's succession caused Date to mess up first, and the situation is similar in the country.

On the issue of whether to establish Tokizomaru as the guardian heir, the people of Echigo also sparked a fierce debate.

Because Shi Zongmaru's mother is the younger sister of Yangbei Zhongzhong Nakajo Fujizi, so Nakajo Fujizi tried his best to pry it out. The rest of the people in Yangbei were afraid that the Nakajo family would gradually grow larger and threaten their own interests, so they unanimously expressed their opposition.

Of course, Nagao Haruki didn't want to see Uesugi Tasumi get involved with Mutsu's Date family, so he sided with the opposing side, and the war broke out again in Echigo. Therefore, after helping Daihoji Yoshizen to repel the invading Shimizu family and other wealthy clans, Uesugi Dingshi's reinforcements hurriedly withdrew and returned to Echigo to prevent the Nagao family from taking the opportunity to attack.

In the Yugo area, the dispute between the Asari family and the Daige family also came to an end with the retreat of the stone turtle Nobubo. In the Mutsu Okutsugaru area, the Anto family, who had retreated to Fukushima Castle, were licking their wounds, and the Nanoka family was also making a truce with the Oura family and other wealthy clans to consolidate their newly acquired territory.

The nearly year-long battle between the Spoo family and the southern family also came to a temporary end with the heavy snowfall.

And Ezo, which is across the sea from the Ou area, is shrouded in a strange atmosphere at this time.

....................

Matsumae Okan (Tokuyamakan) is the residence of the Matsumae guardian Oyster clan.

At this time, in the Tokuyama Pavilion castle tower, Yoshihiro Oyosaki, the third generation governor of the Oysaki family, was lying weakly on the tatami, and the young head of the Oysaki family, Yoshihiro Oyozaki (in fact, this Yoshizaki Yoshihiro has begun to take over the power of the family, but he has not officially inherited the governor) looked at Yoshihiro Yoshihiro on the tatami mat with a worried face, and he was worried about it.

"Father, are you feeling better today?" Yoshihiro Oysaki held Yoshihiro Oysaki's hand and said with tears in his eyes.

Yoshihiro Oysaki's body has been getting worse day by day, and it can be regarded as God's grace to be able to hold on until now.

However, when he heard Yoshihiro Oshizaki's voice, Yoshihiro Yoshihiro, who was originally weak and weak, sat up straight as if he was full of strength! Shocked everyone in the house!

"Father, lie down!"

Yoshihiro Yoshihiro was just about to call Yoshihiro ”

"Ahem!" Yoshihiro Oysaki coughed and said, "Since I, the Oysaki family, Hiroko, has always been aiming to unify the whole of Ezo. Now, it seems that the time has come. ”

"Next, while you integrate the realm, you must also pay attention to maintaining the harmony of the retainers. Gihiro has always coveted the position of the governor, and I will restrain myself when I am alive, but once I die, Kihiro will definitely rebel. It is important to closely monitor the movements of Kihiro. ”

"In addition, the Anton family was defeated this time, although Shun Jigong died in battle, but Xun Jigong was kind to his family back then. You can't be an enemy of the Anton family for a short time, and the family is still a subordinate of the Anton family. Although I know that Taro you can't wait for a long time, but the time has not yet come, and the strength of this family is still strong enough to become independent from the Andong family. ”

"After you succeed to the throne of the family, you will continue to establish diplomatic contacts with Daizen Daifu (Takeda Motomitsu, the head of the Wakasa Takeda family) to expand the influence of your family. Although the Takeda family has not been as strong as before since the defeat of Daizendai in the Katsura Kawahara Battle in the 7th year of Daiei (1527 AD), it has still been able to benefit the family a lot. ”

"That's all my father can say, and in the future, it's up to you." After saying this, Yoshihiro Oysaki finally lost his strength and slowly closed his eyes........... After a while, the snoring sounded faintly, and I fell asleep.......

Yoshihiro Yoshihiro looked at Yoshihiro, who had fallen asleep, turned around cautiously, and glanced at the retainers of the Yoshizaki family standing behind him, and everyone slowly withdrew from Yoshihiro Yoshihiro's room.

"Let's go, the castle tower is on board!" Exiting the room, Yoshizaki Jihiro had no scruples, and said eagerly to the retainers beside him.

"Hah!" Immediately, the crowd walked in the direction of the castle tower.

The Oysaki family is said to be inextricably linked to the Wakasa Takeda family, and long ago Yoshigeru Oyozaki (who is also rumored to have been from the Wakasa Takeda family) worked for the Ando family at the time as the owner of the Hanazawakan. But strictly speaking, the first governor of the Oysaki family should have been Takeda Nobuhiro, who was born from the Takeda clan in Wakasa Province.

Takeda Nobuhiro is the son of Wakasa to protect Takeda Nobuken, Takeda Nobuhiro first passed Takeda Nobuhiro to his younger brother Takeda Kuninobu as an adopted son, and then Takeda Nobuhiro accepted his younger brother Takeda Kuninobu as an adopted son to inherit the family business, and Takeda Kuninobu had another son, Takeda Nobukin (this complicated relationship...... ）。

At this time, Takeda Nobuhiro was very witty and sensed that Takeda Nobuken and Takeda Kunishin might be trying to harm him, so he led five retainers, including Sasaki Shigetsuna and Kudo Yucho, from Wakasa in March of the third year of Hotoku (1451 AD), and then arrived at Tanabu in the northern part of Mutsu.

It just so happened that at this time, Ando Masaaki, the fourth-generation head of the Hiyama Yasuto family, was defeated in a battle with the Sanhe Nanbu clan, and Takeda Nobuhiro crossed north to the Ezo area with Ando Masaki. The newcomer Takeda Nobuhiro heard that the owner of the Kanokuni Hanazawakan in the south of Ezo, Yoshishiro Oysaki, was also said to be related to the Wakasa Takeda clan, so Nobuhiro Takeda went to seek refuge in Yoshishihiro.

From this time on, the Oysaki family began to make a name for themselves in the Ezo area.
