The Takeda family suffered three defeats in the Northern Shinano battle in succession, and even the generals of the Baba Nobubo and Zhujiao Huding, who were conducting the Okushinano Raid, led the Okushinano invasion army After learning that Kenshin led the army north, they immediately left behind the corpses of nearly 1,000 people and retreated. Saito Asanobu, Takanashi Yorikin, Yamaura Kunikiyo and other generals who had struggled to support the Okushinano defense line were not broken by the Takeda army.

This time, the Takeda family was really beaten, especially the wealthy families of North Shinano were beaten all over their bodies.

In order to avenge the shame of the main family, Kansuke Yamamoto, the military advisor of the Takeda family, spent all day thinking about how to take revenge and how to defeat the Uesugi family. His almost crazy work energy made Takeda Shingen a little unhappy.

The Takeda clan first lost a large number of powerful clans of the Shinano clan in the Battle of Ishijingahara and the Battle of Shibushi, while the defeat at the Battle of Oda Ihara (the second) disgraced the Takeda clan and was killed by the Nagano army. The 13,000-strong army was defeated by the 6,000-strong Nagano army in one day, and the Takeda army was even more than 5,000 killed! Saku-gun was empty. The castles in various parts of Saku-gun were destroyed by the invasion of the Uesugi and Nagano armies, and they were completely unable to play any defensive role. If you want to restore the defensive role of these castle soldiers, you will need to invest a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources, which is undoubtedly a fool's dream for the current Takeda family.

It would take a lot of financial resources just to appease the wealthy clans in various places, reward the retainers who had made meritorious contributions, and help the wealthy families restore production in their territories, and the manpower of Kita-Shinano is now completely unrecruitable. The defeat of three successive joint battles and the defeat of the Okushino Raiders had already brought the Takeda family's reign in Kitashinano to the brink.

And of course Takeda Shingen will not directly admit the Takeda family's fiasco in Kita-Shinano on the bright side, otherwise where will he put his face? Where to put the face of the Takeda family? Where do the faces of the fathers and fathers go? A total of nearly 30,000 troops were defeated in the three joint battles and the failure of the Oshinano strategy, and more than 10,000 casualties were lost!

Even if Takeda Shingen can pull down his old face to admit the defeat of the Raiders Okushinano and the defeat of the three joint battles, will the foreign lords, wealthy clans and retainers in various places give him this face? The answer is: Apparently not. It was already good that they didn't get together to discuss exiling Takeda Shingen like Takeda Shintora did.

Not to mention that Suruga, Enoe and most of Hitomi, the four prefectures of Higashimino have finally stabilized in the past two years, and finally Tokugawa Ieyasu was able to settle down in Mikawa without extending his claws to Enoe Province. If the news of the defeat of the Raiders and the defeat of all three joint battles spread, then Tokugawa Ieyasu would definitely immediately start to transfer the countrymen lords of Togae, and it is very likely that they would also invade Toe. It took a lot of effort to capture most of the missiles, and if the local lords who originally supported the Takeda family fell to the Uesugi family, then the Takeda family's power in the missiles would be completely expelled.

Since it is not defeat, then there is only victory. As soon as he thought of this, Takeda Shingen felt very uncomfortable. Not to mention the territory of the Takeda family, his superior forces were defeated again and again by the inferior forces of the other side. said that it was the victory of the Takeda family, but Takeda Shingen himself didn't believe it.

However, in order to appear to be a victor, Takeda Shingen had to lavish rewards for his retainers, hold banquets, donate money to the temple, and so on. These things are done so that people inside and outside can be convinced. In addition, the Uesugi family did not seize an inch of the Takeda family's territory this time, so the Takeda family was able to publicize and repel the invasion of the Uesugi and Nagano families this time.

As for the lavish reward, only a few people actually benefited. Takeda Shingen first transferred the original banner leader of the Higashi Mino side, Ichishuryu, to the Missile Country, and let him possess 10,000 stone Zhixing Land in Matsukura Castle, Sakashita Castle, Tenjin Mountain Castle and other places. Not only that, but Takeda Shingen also transferred the assigned Ashigaru general Kohata Yoshimori to a Shinryu as a force to lead Sakurato Castle to 4,500 stone Zhixingdi.

After a Shinryu was transferred away by Takeda Shingen, Akiyama Nobutomo was promoted to the banner leader of Higashimino and also received the Zhixing Land of Ena County. Due to the fact that powerful generals such as Ichichi Shinryu, Ganli Masataka, and Takasaka Masanobu were successively transferred to other places, Takeda Shingen was worried that Akiyama Nobutomo alone would not be able to suppress the local samurai of the four prefectures of Higashimino, so he transferred Matsuo Nobusi (Takeda Nobutoshi Goo), a powerful military general with 200 horses, to Higashimino and received 32,000 stone Zhiyukidi in Kore County, and returned to Akiyama Nobuyo to control it. Not only that, Takeda Shingen also transferred Kosuga Tadagen (Shokei clan of Yama Prefecture) to Higashiminon, received the Eight Thousand Stone Zhiyuki Land of Kozato Castle, and served as the county governor of Toki County.

In the end, Takeda Shingen did not forget to reward the defeated generals such as Takeda Nobushishi, Takeda Nobuyoru, Kawakuro Nobushimi, and Ganli Masatada, Taito, Koshu Kim, etc., to show the world that the Takeda family defeated the Uesugi family and the Nagano family and won the victory.

And the Asadaki didn't have time to deal with Takeda Shingen at the moment, and it would take quite a while for the rebels in Ueno to suppress the bombs in various parts of the country, and there was also news of instability within the Nagano family at this moment.

Yamamoto Kansuke didn't intend to let the court be idle, and immediately omitted the retainers of the former Tatebayashi Akai family, Akai Seven Horsemen, and ordered them to attack Tatebayashi Castle. As a result, General Ota Shimasa and others were unable to lead their troops into Nishiueno to join the Hatada.

At the same time, Chiba Cainu had already rushed to Echigo Fuchu and met Uesugi Kenmasa in the Fuchu Imperial Hall (Uesugi Pavilion).

"Cai Nu, you're finally here! Stand down, all of you! Uesugi Kenmasa immediately retreated when he saw Chiba Cainu.

"Constitutional Minister, I haven't seen you for a few years, are you still doing well?" Although Chiba Cainu said this, after seeing Uesugi Kenmasa himself, he could see that he was not doing very well here.

"Alas! Don't mention it! Uesugi Kenmasa first sighed, and then continued: "In the past, how much did the old man trust them and believe in them. Unexpectedly, they are now starting to use the old man, an old man who has not been concerned about political affairs for a long time, to achieve their ulterior purposes! The town government is a rare talent in the Uesugi clan, and they have to find ways to frame him for rebellion! ”

"Why don't you explain this to the main hall of the Leader Palace?" Chiba believes that since Uesugi Kenmasa is in Echigo, a humble territory, he should not be easily controlled by others. After all, it's in Echigo, and it's not Ueno.

"Don't mention it! Danzheng has been out of battle for a long time, but the old man has been under house arrest here by Uehara Hyogo, Kanno Daizen and others, and even many of the people around him are their henchmen, how easy is it to talk about? Uesugi Kenmasa said helplessly.

"Could it be that Uehara Hyogo, Kanno Daizen and others are trying to rebel?! House arrest is a conspiracy! There is no way they don't know. After listening to Uesugi Kenmasa's words, Chiba Cainu was angry and didn't fight anywhere.

"That's it, you better return to Kanto as soon as possible and inform Danzheng and the town government, so that they must be more careful." After Uesugi finished speaking, he got up and walked behind the screen and led out a teenager.

"Xianzheng Gong, this should be the young master." Chiba Cainu looked at the young man's face and thought of Ryuzamaru, who had died tragically at the hands of Gohojo.

"Yes, it's the second son, Kento." Uesugi Kenmasa nodded and continued: "If he continues to follow the old man's side, he won't be productive, so it's better to follow the town government." The old man's third and fourth sons all inherited the famous Iwaki family and Mogami family in the northeast. Among the children under the old man's knees, he is the only one who is still white. ”

"I understand, you mean that you want the young master to inherit a famous family and then become the lord of a city." Chiba Cainu immediately understood Uesugi Kenmasa's thoughts.

"Not bad. Rest assured, the old man will not be at their mercy for too long. Uesugi Kenmasa said with a smile.

In this way, Chiba Cainu immediately left the Fuchu Imperial Pavilion with Uesugi Kento and embarked on the road back to Kanto. And Uehara Hyogo, Kanno Nobukata and others also learned the news that Chiba Cainu had come to the Fuchu Imperial Pavilion, but they didn't care about it. Because as long as Uesugi Kenmasa is still in their hands, as for Uesugi Kento's milky and undried kid, it doesn't matter to them at all.

However, the various countrymen lords, wild samurai, and ronin in Ueno all raised anti-flags against the Asadaku under the mediation of Uehara Hyogo, Kanno Nobukata, Yamamoto Kansuke and others. Even the former Madashi of Uesugi Kense, Uehara Hyogo, Kanno Nobukata and others began to adjust them, with the intention of making the court fall into a quagmire and unable to get out.
