Chapter 62: Returning to the Mountain

At the same time that the court detained Uesugi Kenkatsu, he also released his wife and daughter. He killed the daughter of the Great Daoji Temple to let the Hojo family know that he would fight them to the end! However, when Uesugi Asadashi released the mother and son, he handed over a letter to Oishi Mist, and this letter was naturally to be handed over to Oishi Dingjiu. The content of the letter is naturally unclear to Uesugi Kenkatsu, if he really knew the content of the letter, then he would not have smiled and watched the mother and son leave.

In fact, there are still many things to be done in the re-entry of Musashi, especially the inspection and garrison. If you want to talk about garrisoning, it is still very problematic. Hojo Shiyasu didn't want his living power to be destroyed, so he asked his retainers to give up their skills and retreat to Odawara Castle. In particular, a considerable part of the important places in Musashi have been abandoned! Originally, Kawagoe Castle was also a castle that gave up defense, but Uesugi Kenkatsu was unwilling! All of them are engaged in battle with the Uesugi army.

After the current Hojo family's power in Musashi disappeared in an instant, many places were in a power vacuum. For example, the three castles of the original Hojo clan's state, Bowlatata Castle, Ando Castle, and Kikoshi Castle were empty castles waiting for the Uesugi army to occupy. In addition to the 14,800 koku of the three castles of the bowl-shaped castle, Matsuyama Castle (11,700 koku), Ishito Castle (6,750 koku), Koeshi Castle (25,000 koku), and Namba Tada Castle (11,250 koku) were also taken. However, the only cities that could really send people to garrison were Kawagoe Castle, Ishito Castle, Namba Ta Castle, and Matsuyama Castle. Although many local landlords and wealthy clans who supported the Hojo clan were defeated, it was impossible for the Uesugi army to continue to march and expand the results of the battle with only 10,000 people, not to mention that the 5,000 Kamisugi soldiers were still training in Ueno, so it was impossible to form combat effectiveness in a short period of time and go south to assist the Uesugi family's offensive.

Hojo Shiyasu also knew that he could not continue to fight after losing a large number of people, so he could only let the Uesugi family widen the roads and repair the castle in the North Musashi Territory, and he didn't bother to care about Uesugi Kenkatsu's life or death. It was for this reason that the court led many of his retainers to the Asagiji Temple outside Kawagoe Castle to pay tribute to the people who died defending the castle for the Uesugi family. Nasu Ziyin was put back by Chaoding, and his 1,000 troops have only more than 700 people now, although there are not many casualties, but a large number of deserters have appeared after the morale is low, which has to worry Nasu Ziyin.

Just a few days after the court detained Uesugi Kenkatsu, a large number of ashigaru were transferred out of the city by him, and the guards of Uesugi Kenkatsu in the dungeon were loosened a lot. Just after Ashigaru, the last person to take care of the dungeon, fell asleep drinking sake, Uesugi Kenkatsu saw an opportunity! He immediately stole the key from Ashigaru's body, opened the cell door, and sneaked out of the dungeon. He didn't see anything wrong, on the contrary, he was glad that it was a godsend.

When Uesugi sneaks up to a small room in Ninomaru and finds no one there, he immediately flips through the desks and letters on the shelves in an attempt to find some 'important' news. The hard work paid off, and he still saw a lot of news about the invasion of the Date family and the Mogami family on the main throne case, and there were a lot of letters asking for help, including the Soma family! Seeing this, Uesugi Kenkatsu 'understood' that Uesugi Asadatsu had only come back once and would soon be withdrawn. Many of the paintings on these letters are 'true', especially the paintings of the Soma family that he still knows. Uesugi Kenkatsu thought to himself that as long as he handed over these letters to Hojo Shiyasu, he would still be the head of the Kanto region. Moreover, the Uesugi family can still 'survive' in their own hands! The premise is that the Hojo family can defeat the Uesugi army.

Uesugi Kenkatsu knew that it was impossible to go out in a white suit if he chose to do so, so he had to change his outfit immediately! Soon, his gaze rested on a set of black lacquer pills in the corner of the room. He also had to make a quick change, then went to the arsenal to get a saber and pretended to be a patrolling samurai, and the letters were all on his body.

Just as he was leading the group back to the castle after paying tribute to the war dead, he noticed a suspicious samurai running out of the castle while looking around. Jieshan Yunsheng and others around Chaoding all asked to send someone to arrest him, but Chaoding only asked Saito Rizo next to him to whisper a few words before he led the team into the city. And Saito Rizo chased after him with ten cavalrymen.

When Uesugi Kenkatsu found out that someone was arresting him, he couldn't help but speed up his pace, and he had to rush to the Hojo Ring in a short time to deliver the letters to the Hojo family. But his road is still very long, and the nearest Hojo family castle to him is also close to Sagami Province's Koki Castle, Aoki Castle, Tokita Castle, Sawayama Castle, etc., which has not included the Oishi family's Tokura Castle, and the Hojo family in Musashi has given up no less than twenty castles!

While Uesugi Kenkatsu was still running away, the Dragon Maiden had already led the Kanto coalition to completely defeat the Yuki family, which was allied with the Hojo family, near Shimoto-gu Furukawa Castle, and the seventeenth generation of Yuuki family leader Yuki Harumo was beheaded by the Nagao family's retainer Yamamoto Temple Dingchang outside Furukawa Castle. And Yuki Haruho's biological father, Koyama Takato, watched his son die in battle in Koyama Castle and couldn't rescue him. He knew that if he rescued the Yuki family, then the Xiaoshan family would definitely cut off the family name, and it was better to save himself as a shrunken turtle than to cut off the family name after the rescue. Originally, the Ashikaga Yoshishi clan of Furukawa Gongfang supported by the Hojo family should have been in Furukawa Castle, but unfortunately Hojo Yasu transferred him to Misaki Castle in advance.

Takeda Shingen did not dare to counterattack on a large scale when Nagano Yoshimasa attacked Kunimine Castle and other Takeda Domains, because Okushinano and Saito Asanobu and Murakami Yoshikiyo were eyeing each other, and Missile's Kakizaki Haruya was stationed. Takeda Shingen still sent his younger brother Takeda Nobushihiro to Furukawa Castle on April 30 to question the Dragon Maiden. On this day, the new Furukawa Gongkata took office, and Asadaku also came from Musashi to participate. After the tedious employment ceremony was completed, Takeda Nobuyoshi was arranged to meet with Ryunu, Asada, and others in the small wide room of Ninomaru in Furukawa Castle.

"Jinghu Gong, Chaoding Gong, presumably you two still remember that the peace treaty signed on Kawanaka Island after World War I has not been annulled, right? How can you rashly attack Kohata Kenshige and others? They're Takeda's retainers! "Takeda Nobuyhiro is still a little tender politically, and it's okay to ask him to conquer the city, but to ask him to negotiate is to be clearly cheated. Takeda Shingen is because he can only send his henchmen and retainers, and the real henchman is none other than his younger brother Takeda Shinshi, who is also the right and left hand.

"That's right, but neither the Long Tail Army nor the Uesugi Army have attacked the Takeda Ryo! Does anyone want to drive a wedge between the three of us? You must know that the only one who attacked the national peak was the Nagano family, and the 5,000 troops of the main family were only temporarily stationed. "Chaoding likes to play side ball or something, and he felt a little sleepy after just standing and watching the employment ceremony, but the envoy of the Takeda family came to make Chaoding feel a lot of spirits.

"This ......" Takeda Nobuyhiro was a little powerless to refute after being said by the Asadachi, he knew that it was impossible for Nagano Yoshimasa to attack the Takeda Domain without the order of the Kanto Governor, but without the backing of the Nagao family and the Uesugi family, Nagano Yoshimasa did not dare to lead a large army to attack at will with a hundred dares, it was clearly instructed by them!

"Don't care about the territory of Ueno, do you want me to show you a clear path for the Takeda family?" Chao Ding motioned to Jieshan Yunsheng beside him to spread out the map, this map is not very detailed, but it is enough to have various orders and countries.

"What clear road? Could it be that the Duke of Chaoding and the Duke of Jinghu want to return the 50,000 stone territory that was swallowed up by Nagano Yezheng? "Takeda Nobuyoshi's brain is still a little difficult to use, he thought it was returned, but in fact, it was impossible to give it to the court. I don't want to think about it, if there is no Nagano family on the flank, won't my little territory in Ueno be visible in the attack range of the Takeda family?

"Do you see Suruga, Enoe, and Mikawa?" Asadaki slowly rowed all the way from Suruga Province to Mikawa Province with the folding fan in his hand, and his meaning was already obvious. As long as the Takeda family breaks off the alliance between Hojo and Imagawa, they will be able to capture the three kingdoms of Tokaido after getting the default of the daimyo such as the Uesugi family and the Nagao family.

"Isn't that the domain of the Imagawa family?!" Takeda Nobuyhiro was shocked into a cold sweat! He couldn't see clearly that the head of the Uesugi family, who looked a bit like a minister, could come up with such a 'compensation' plan.

"It seems that the Imagawa family's 30,000-strong army has reached Inima Castle in Enoe Province, and I have sent ninjas to the Oda family to inform them that as long as Oda Kamisuke Nobunaga can defeat Imagawa Yoshimoto in Owari Province, your Takeda family will be able to obtain the territory of nearly one million stone in the three countries of Tokaido, and this family will serve as your solid backing." Chaoding didn't see the green tendons on the dragon girl's face on the main throne about to burst out, he just felt that as long as Takeda was led to Tokaido, he would have a battle with the Oda family sooner or later. As long as Oda Nobunaga has the ability to go to Luo, and then defeat the Takeda family, it will be the time for the Uesugi family to go to Luo. Moreover, Asada directly told Kato Danzo to let him personally inform Oda Nobunaga and tell him that Imagawa Yoshimoto would rest in the barrel room.

"What?! What should I do with the main room of the young master of this family? "Although Takeda Nobuyoshi knows that this deal is not a loss, as long as the 30,000 army of Imagawa Yoshimoto is defeated, it will definitely be scattered, as long as the Takeda family is ready in the morning, they can attack Suruga in one fell swoop and occupy it completely! 50,000 stones in exchange for nearly a million stones is indeed not a loss!

"Since she has nothing to do, then she can be sent back to the Imagawa family, if your young master objects, you can only let Dr. Takeda Taishan learn the methods of Ling Zun." The meaning of this sentence is that if Takeda Yoshinobu opposes it, learn from Takeda Shintora's methods back then - whoever opposes it will be killed.

"This matter is very important, the princess of this family is still in the Hojo family, and has already given birth to a son-in-law. Please allow the minister to return to the lord and answer the two of you. "Takeda Shinzo can see it, if the Takeda family wants to develop, they can only fight south, occupy Tokaido, and learn from Imagawa Yoshimoto Kamiro! And the Uesugi family will also serve as the 'backing' of the Takeda family, and this deal is to tell Takeda Shingen, the person who likes to tear the alliance the most.

"Yes, whatever." Chaoding watched Takeda Nobuhiro hurriedly leave Kohiroma.

"This master, please go out for a while, I want to learn swordsmanship with the repair doctor." Although the dragon girl smiled slightly, this smile was deadly.

"The poor monk understood." Jieshan Yunsheng could only shake his head at Chao Ding and quickly left Xiao Guangjian.

"You don't have that, do you?" When Chao Ding was still in a daze, the dragon girl had already picked up the two wooden knives on the side, one of which was thrown to Chao Ding.

"I thought you were a righteous gentleman, but I didn't expect it to be a well-dressed beast!" The dragon girl only knows the true face of the dynasty now, even if Takeda Shingen is indeed a lot worse than him. This man is unfathomable!

"Listen to me!" As soon as Chao Ding picked up the wooden knife, the dragon girl attacked directly, without giving him any chance!

"I don't want to hear it!" The dragon girl only knew that since she saw Asada, she had fallen step by step to a worse state than Takeda Shingen, Hojo Shiyasu and others! The Battle of Huachuan was a battle that killed tens of thousands of people! If this continues, not to mention whether Bishamentian can forgive her, she herself may not be able to forgive herself.

"Women are really hypocritical!" Chao Ding couldn't help but sigh after receiving a few knives from the dragon girl, they are also sisters, how can Ayahime be so reasonable!

Just when the dragon girl was completely irrational, the swordsmanship had already begun to be chaotic, and it was not as sharp as it was at the beginning. After finding the dragon girl's flaw, Chao Ding stopped this meaningless 'competition' after beating her wooden knife. Then Chaoding picked up the dragon girl and took her into the inner room despite the dragon girl's resistance.

"If you dare to do anything dirty to me, I'll tear up the covenant! When the time comes, Takeda and Hojo will take the initiative to attack you! "The dragon girl doesn't know what will happen to her next, but she still scares people.

"So what? Sekihaku and Yamanuchi Temple are both in Kanto, do you dare to tear up the covenant? Besides, it's useless for you to tear it up, but your sister is still taking care of the children in Aizu. You know which is more important. "Chao Ding can't calm down now, after looking at the white and tender dragon girl in front of him, he can't help but want to 'taste' his sister-in-law!

"I won't let you go!" The dragon girl said that, and then she symbolized a rebellion and let the court settle on her body. It was not yet noon, and they started the 'round house' in the inner room in advance.

"Don't be afraid, you won't suffer from women's illnesses again." After Chao Ding finished speaking, he put his lips on the lips of the dragon girl. This made the dragon girl feel a tingle that she had never experienced before, and it instantly spread throughout her body.

It can be said that after doing it three times in the inner room with the dragon maiden in this limited time, Asada's resting together on the tatami mat was not until the afternoon when Sanada Masayuki came to report that Uesugi Kenkatsu had arrived in Sagami very 'cooperatively'.
