On the 5th day of August in the first year of Yongroku, not long after Qianxin left, an uninvited guest came to Heyue City. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he is the old man of the Onodera family, the owner of the Yakashiwa Pavilion, the owner of the Yakashiki Pavilion.

"See the town government, the foreign minister is the old man of the Onodera family, Yachibai Yamato Shoudao. I have admired the name for a long time, and I am very happy to see it today. The old man of the Onodera family introduced himself straight to the point. However, his sharp gaze made Asada feel a little similar to Saito Michizo.

"The Onodera clan is from the Fujiwara Kita family like the main family, but why did you join the rebel camp before?" Chao Ding knocked on the tatami mat in front of him with the folding fan in his hand, although the voice was not loud, but it was enough for Hachibai Daowei to hear.

"The Onodera family was also forced. After the surrounding daimyo such as the Daihoji family, the Mogami family, the Date family, the Osaki family, and the Kasai family raised troops one after another, the Onodera family could only follow the army. The rebellion at home had only been put down for a short time, and he was no longer able to fight several daimyo at the same time. Babai Dao was telling the truth about this.

The Onodera family had always been the Kyoto Imperial Support of the Ashikaga Shogun's family, and Terumchi's father, Sakamichi, had been by the Ashikaga Shogun's side for a long time, so he lacked control over the retainers in the country, which led to the usurpation of the throne by the retainer Yokote Mitsumori.

After the death of Hanamichi, his son Hui Dao took refuge in another daimyo in the Dewa area, the Daihoji family, in the Dai Bao Temple family, Hui Dao was bent on avenging his father, in order to seek the help of the Dai Bao Temple family, Hui Dao married the daughter of the Dai Bao Temple Yoshimasu, and with the help of the Dai Bao Temple family, he contacted his father's old ministry in the country, and the Li Ying Wai joined forces to remove the usurper of the rebel minister Yokomori.

"But as far as I know, the Onodera family hasn't been idle during this time. He successively invaded the territory of Mogami and Dabaoji, and once defeated the army of Mogami and plundered a lot of money and food. "Chaoding, however, still has some understanding of the situation in the northeast.

"The town government is right, it is precisely because the Onodera family cannot be in the company of the rebels, so they are attacking their rear to relieve the pressure on the Uesugi family." Although Babai Daowei is not very old, his strategy and insight are no longer comparable to ordinary people.

"According to Yamato Mamoru, the retreat of the Daihoji army from Echigo Iwafune County was also due to the attack of the Onodera family?" Michizo Saito was looking up and down Hachiba Michiwei with his snake-like gaze at the moment.

"Exactly. Not only that, but the Satsushi sect of the Daihoji family, who had already omitted the head of the Daihoji family, Tosa Rin Noto, and the important minister of the Daihoji family. "Babai Dao doesn't seem to be a breeze for this time, and he is still prepared.

"Even if the Onodera family wants to make meritorious deeds, the Guanling Hall does not encroach on the heart of the feather······" Although Chao Ding's words are so, he is also struggling with whether he can send troops to the northeast.

"The palace is in charge of every day, but you have the position of the general of the town guard, and you should control the generals of Okuyu. Counterinsurgency is also the duty of the town guard general. Not only my Onodera family, but also the generals of the Daihoji family are also dissatisfied with the rule of Daihoji Yoshimasa, as long as you give an order, I think they will definitely present the head of Daihoji Yoshizen. "Babai Dao doesn't want to send troops to the court. Once Mogami, Daihoji, and Date and several others join forces, then the end of the Onodera family will come.

"What's the responsibility? Babai Yamato Shou's tone is not small. I am at least the fourth general appointed by the imperial court, so why do I need to obey your command? Although Asadachi has the heart to understand the Onodera family, Hachibai Dao made himself very unhappy because of this.

"Babai Yamato Mamoru, don't forget that this is Heyue City, not Yokote City, you can't be presumptuous!" Namba Tian Kenji on the side finally couldn't bear it anymore and directly reprimanded Hachibai Daowei.

"My lord, although there is some conflict in the words of the Eight Bai Yamato Mori, but this moment is a good time to destroy the Dabao Temple family in one go. The feud of Chau Island Castle has not yet been avenged by the Mogami family, and once the Onodera family is united, then the Mogami family can be attacked from both sides. Ota Shimasa calmly analyzed the situation.

"However, according to the situation of my family, I can't afford to send troops. I can only worship the Trusteeship Hall. "Asadaki doesn't want to be a defense for the sake of the three counties of Shonai and the best Murayama and Mogami counties. Takeda Shingen likes to take advantage of the void the most, and Chaoding doesn't want to give him this opportunity.

"The lord is wise, but after the war, will the three counties of Zhuangnai be under the control of the palace or the family?" Ota Shimasa thought directly about the post-war period, and he felt that as long as the Echigo generals came out, he would definitely win.

In this way, he sent someone to inform Taoo Zhang Mamoru and ordered him to quickly regain the lost territory of Zhici County. And try to find a way to invade Murayama County. Chao Ding thought of a compromise plan.

"Lord, you don't want to ······" Ota has a vague feeling that Asaha is taking an adventure.

"The three counties of Shonai belong to the family, and the Murayama County belongs to the palace. Let the wise Mitsutada of Nasu County lead his troops north to support Taoo Zhangmori. Chao Ding then gave the order. What he wanted was the three major shrines of the three counties of Shonai and Sakata Minato. And the Echigo generals under Kenshin only wanted land, as long as they seized Murayama County and handed it over to Kenshin. In this way, everyone has what they get and what they need.

"Yes."

Soon, Babai Daowei was not in vain. The Onodera family obtained the document signed by the Asada, recognized its subordination to the Uesugi family, and by the way, the Asada also rewarded Hachipado with two swords. Hachibai Daowei is not an ordinary person, when the Yokote Mitsumori attacked Onodera Hando, Hachibai Daowei dared to take more than 30 people to rush into the Yokote array and slash and kill. Thanks to his efforts, the Onodera family was able to survive in the face of enemies on all sides, and did not lose several times in foreign battles. This little-known Hachibai Michi is really a very capable general, and it is not in vain that many people in later generations called him "the Nagano Yesamasa of Dewa".

On 10 August, Akechi Mitsutada led an army of 4,000 troops, including Shinshi Sadaren, Teruya Ikeda, Keitsuna Okuda, and Shigenao Aoki, from Nasu Prefecture, Shimonono. On the Echigo side, Asadachi also asked Uesugi Keimitsu, Shinbata Nagatsu and others, who had not yet withdrawn, to lead their troops to Aizu after replenishing supplies from Joetsu.

Kenshin could not go out at will in order to sit in the Kasuga mountain castle, so he could only have Kajichi Harutsuna of the Ichimen lead Kurokawa Kiyomi, Sekinaga Katsunaga, Takemata Keitsuna, Tsukiji Shitoyo, and Okawa Tadahide among the northern people, and entered Dewa on August 12 with 7,000 troops.

When Yoshizen heard that the Uesugi army was attacking, he was like an ant on a hot pot, and not only the family Zai, Tosabin Zendo, but also the Sarakoshi sect and the powerful countrymen Takei Tokitomo and Kuriji Hide, all of them remained neutral, and none of them sent a single soldier to support Daihoji Yoshimasa. This made the two of them only greet their whole family and ancestors. However, the small country castle closest to Echigo Yangbei was surrounded by 7,000 Uesugi regiments, and there were only 600 defenders in the small country castle.

At this moment, the two of them, Dabaoji Yoshizen and Dabaoji Yoshi, have no extra troops to support Xiaoguocheng. This is because the forces that can be mobilized are limited to the areas around Daihoji Castle, Oura Castle, Maruoka Castle, and Yokoyama Castle. And the salmon of the Onodera family, Nobu Sadazuna, also led an army of 1,000 to capture the Kagawa Castle of the Dahoji family, and the defenders of 100 people were completely annihilated.

It can be said that the speed of the invasion of the Dabao Temple Territory was so fast that many people did not expect it. When Mogami Yoshimori and Mogami Yoshimitsu father and son learned of the betrayal of the father and son of Daihoji Temple, they immediately gave up all the castles they had captured, and even Hasedo Castle, which had been besieged for a long time, was withdrawn.

Just as the Uesugi army approached Oura Castle, the home of the Dahoji family, one of the samurai of the Dahoji family staggered into the city, his body was covered in blood, and there were several broken arrows in his large armor.

"Yayuden, Kagawa Castle is lost! Mogami evacuated all the samurai in Zhishi-gun and abandoned the castle that Zhishi-gun had captured! The samurai crawled almost on his stomach into the empty room.

"Is this true? Imai are you sure you're not wrong? Dahoji Yoshizen's eyes instantly turned black and fell on the tatami mat. He couldn't hold it anymore. The 2,000 troops that were temporarily gathered in their hands were no match for the Uesugi army at all, not to mention the Yangbei people who were led by Okawa Tadahide and Okawa Nagahide's father and son. Okawa Tadahide's father and son went on a rampage completely for the sake of guilt and meritorious service. The attack on the small country city is the first to command the attack of the headquarters army on the small country city.

Two days later, Daihoji Yoshizen woke up under the treatment of a doctor. He was accompanied only by his eldest son, Daihoji Yoshiji, and his younger second son, Daihoji Yoshiko (early Motofu), as well as his close retainer Takaji Imai.

"Father, Okuni Castle was lost, and Takasaka Yoshiharu and Takasaka Masanobu opened the gates of Maruoka Castle and Daihoji Castle, and now only Yokoyama Castle and Oura Castle are left in the family······" Dabaosi Yi clan clenched his hands into fists and said sadly.

"Yes······ It looks like the Dabaoji family is going to end in my hands······" Although Dabao Temple Yizeng was unwilling, he thought of something after seeing Dabao Temple Yixing crying beside him.

"If it weren't for the Onodera family omitting the powerful countrymen and retainers of the family one after another, otherwise the Uesugi army would not have been able to enter the hinterland of the family at all!" Daihoji Yoshishi punched the tatami mat and left a fist mark.

"Even if you can't get in for a while, once that Fujiwara town government sends a large army, the result will still be the same, it's all a matter of time······" Dabao Temple Yizeng said weakly.

"My lord, the loss of Yokoyama Castle is a matter of time, there are only more than 500 defenders in Oura Castle, and it is impossible to resist the onslaught of the Uesugi army······" Takaji Imai said at the door of the Yoshimasu room at Daihoji Temple.

"What about Ikeda in Asahayama Castle? As long as he brings food and reinforcements from the sea, we can continue to hold on. "The Daihoji Yoshishi is still not giving up.

"Ikeda-sama has sent his son Ikeda Morishu to Koe Castle as a hostage, and he, like Tosabayashi, Saragoe, Kiriji, Tozenji, Takasaka, Abe, and other families, has possessed the ability to block documents issued by the Uesugi family, and has become a retainer of Uesugi." Takaji Imai said helplessly.

"Why are you saying it now?!" Daihoji Yoshishi walked over and grabbed Imai Takaji by the collar.

"It doesn't help······ I feel that time is running out, so Imai, you will be my agent, and I believe that as long as I use my life, I can exchange more people's lives. Dabao Temple Yizeng struggled to get up and took out the ribs around him.

"Father, in that case, I'll go out of the city alone······" The Yoshishi of Daihoji didn't want to commit suicide by seppuku, but just wanted to be taken after fighting the famous samurai of the Uesugi family.

"Jiro, you're still young. You'll go out of the city with Imai later, this won't be your home in the future······" Dabaoji Yizeng stroked Dabaoji Yixing's head and said.

Subsequently, Daihoji Yoshizen committed suicide by seppuku under the mediation of Imai Takaji. Yoshiji Daihoji went out of the castle alone and fought with Shinagami in less than five rounds before being picked off his horse and stabbed to death with spears by the Ashigaru of the Uesugi army. And Daihoji Yoshiko was handed over to Kaji Harutsuna by Imai Ryuji and sent to Kawagoe Castle, but Imai Ryuji committed suicide by seppuku outside Oura Castle.
