In the second year of Yonglu, September 20. Just after Asada learned that Nagao Fujikei had raised troops to rebel in Takashiro, he immediately ordered Nishiueno's Kohata Keitada, Gokan Nobutari (Yataro, Asada's bestowing his favoritism on him), Shirakura Gozaemon, Takada Ubei Eisa, and Takada Uemonsa to intensify their offensive against Takada's Nest Castle. And generals such as Nagai Masashi, Meio Masakatsu, Toshima Tairai, Shibata Kiyomasa and other generals led troops north to attack the Urano family, who had not yet surrendered.

Seeing that the offensive of the Uesugi army was becoming more and more fierce, Ita Mitsukei ordered his retainers to secretly go to the formation of Takada Youbei Zuo and Takada Youemonzo and send them a letter. The content of this letter is very simple: "Yitian is destroyed, what is the use of Gao Tian?" ”

The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook; The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden. Based on the life experiences of Takada Youbei Zuo and Takada Youemonsa, this sentence is undoubtedly a sharp dagger that is fiercely inserted into their hearts. Takada and Takada Righte Menzo were silent after reading the letter, and they quickly ordered the siege to be stopped.

With the cessation of the siege by the two Takata brothers, the pressure on Ita Mitsukei was greatly reduced, and he immediately transferred most of the defenders of Nishinomaru to Sannomaru to resist the attacks of Kohata Keitasa, Gokan Nobutada, and Shirakura Gozaemon.

When Kohata Keidai saw Takada Ubei and Takada Uemon Sa, they stopped attacking the castle and realized that they must have been in contact with Ita Mitsukei of Eagle's Nest Castle. After all, the stakes were very high, and Kohata Jingding couldn't be the master himself, so he had to immediately send someone to inform Chaoding.

In the early morning of the 22nd, after Chaoding had just finished washing, Mori Katsuhiro hurriedly came to the front of Chaoding with Kohata Jingding's younger brother, Kohata Zhenren.

"See Fujiwara Habayashi (Tang name of the official position of Konoe Prefecture)." Sadana Kohata said respectfully.

"What's the matter? If the Eagle's Nest had fallen, you wouldn't have come here. After Chao Ding finished speaking, he walked to the courtyard to watch the chili bonsai.

"Yulin Hall Mingjian, Takada Right Soldier Honor and Takada Right Guard Mensa secretly communicated with the Ita family, and they no longer launched attacks on Eagle's Nest City two days ago." Kohata said with a sigh.

"Takada Right Guard and Takada Right Guard Mensa were originally forced by the situation to surrender to the family, and now it's not a strange thing to secretly communicate with the Ita family, so there's no need to make a fuss." Asadachi didn't care about the matter of the two Takada brothers secretly communicating with Ita Mitsukei, and the most important thing for him was to destroy the Edo family and do a good job in the defense of the four Aizu counties.

"But it is difficult to attack a fortified city like Eagle's Nest City with just a few military forces such as Xiaoban, Baicang, Houxian, and Dashi, and I hope that Yulin Hall can allocate reinforcements." When Kohata saw that Asadachi was unmoved, he immediately asked Asadachi for reinforcements.

"The three generals Akiyama, Asahina, and Takai are still in Takaru and Satomi, and I will immediately order them to lead their troops south to support you." Chao Ding said after thinking about it.

"Thank you Yulin Palace!" When Kohata heard that the court had agreed to send reinforcements, he was very happy.

"Lord, are you so generous? There are currently 5,000 people in the lower field of the three generals Akiyama, Takai, and Asahina, and even if the Ita family continues to recruit rebels, there are only 2,000 people, and now the generals in charge of the siege of the castle, such as Kohata, Shirakura, Follow-up, and Oishi, still have more than 3,000 troops, should you reconsider? "Hidesen Yamazaki only came out from behind a rockery in the courtyard after Sadashi Kohata left.

"Honjo, Soga, Ogasawara, Omori, Numata, Hosoya, and Sato have already been ordered by me to attack the Urano family, and the old leader of the Takaru Nagano family will not be captured by the Urano family even if the garrison is empty." Chao Ding shook his head and said.

"Since the lord has been prepared, it seems that the minister has miscalculated." Hidesen Yamazaki said with a smile.

"It is reported that Nagao Enoemori has already captured a number of cities in Central Vietnam and Xiayue in succession, and his next step is likely to be to seize the coastal ports. Once he captures the port, he will be able to obtain support from the Daimyo of Hashu, such as Anton and Tozawa. "Asadaki is very helpless about this, and there is no one in Echigo who can contain the development speed of Nagao Fujikei.

"Kamo Castle's early head Shifu, Hanyu Ta Castle's Wada Kiyohachi also responded to Nagao Toe Mamoru's army, Nagao was also killed by Nagao Heiroku Nagake, and the timing of Nagao Toe Mamoru's rebellion was really good. If this development continues, Ando and Tozawa of Hashu will definitely send reinforcements to support Nagao Enoemori. Yamazaki Hidesen nodded.

"Now that Shinbata Inaba and other generals have not yet taken Yuri-gun, the Yuri Party has united the Daimyo such as the Anto, Minato, and Tozawa families to confront the main family, and the Onodera family's progress in Higashi-Yuri is also very limited." Chao Ding sighed helplessly.

"First let Ayukawa Shinanomori lead the army to Echigo to quell the rebellion, and then order the generals, Ishiguro and others to send troops to Takashiro. Nagao Toe Mamoru will not leave his home city until he has captured all of Central Vietnam. "Chao Ding had to take one step at a time, after all, he didn't have many troops on hand now.

"My lord, forgive your ministers for talking too much. If the Imperial Palace Fire Rate Army is asked to return to Echigo, then Nagao Toe Mamoru will be ambushed within ten days. If Goya Gyoden still has to lead his army to quell the rebellion of Viethorne and Noto, then it is very likely that it will ······" Hidesen Yamazaki said halfway through and then continued.

"It's very likely to be like King Hailing, right?" Chao Ding immediately thought of a lesson from the past - King Wanyan Liang of Jin Hailing.

Wan Yan Liang had already learned on the north bank of the Yangtze River that Wan Yan Yong had an army in Liaoyang and was proclaimed emperor, and he also wanted to stop the war against the Song Dynasty and lead his troops north to encircle and suppress the Dading regime. However, Wan Yanliang mistakenly listened to the advice of Li Tong, a close confidant around him, that is, after crossing the Yangtze River first, until Lin'an (now Hangzhou) in Kyoto of the Southern Song Dynasty, destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty, and then returned to attack Jin Shizong, and won both victories. In the end, it turned out that Wan Yanliang completely miscalculated. Wan Yanliang led his troops to the north bank of the Yangtze River, that is, he selected the riverside town of Quarry Town on the border of Anhui Province to launch the war of attacking the Song River and crossing the river, but the result was a quick failure with heavy casualties. At this time, the Jin soldiers who conquered the Song Dynasty in the south also learned that Wan Yan Yong had established the Dading regime in Liaoyang and raised the banner to rebel against Wan Yan Liang, the king of Hailing, so the Jin soldiers on the front line felt that there was a way out for their lives. The soldiers began to plot to be led by Yelu Yuanyi, the Khitan commander, and then led by his son Yelu Wangxiang, to launch a mutiny of the Jin army on the front line. In the middle of the night on November 27, the mutinous Jin soldiers rushed into the Guishan Temple in Guazhoudu, the big tent of the Chinese army ——— Wanyanliang, and shot Wanyanliang, the king of Hailing, to death. The regime of King Hailing fell immediately. The army of the Jin Dynasty, which conquered the Song Dynasty in the south, was also defeated and retreated from the battlefield like a tide and fled to the north, so that the war against the Song launched by Wanyan Liang ended in complete defeat.

"There are still quite a few local Chinese lords in Noto, Vietnam and China, and once they collude with Nagao Enoe Mamoru in the country, then the consequences will be very serious." Hidesen Yamazaki was worried at this time that Kenshin would be trapped in Echichu and Noto and would not be able to get out.

"Shiina and Jimbo's former retainers have united with Kaga Ichimune to rebel, and the Takeda family has also shown signs of sending military rations to them. Once the Takeda family sent troops to Hokurikudo, the family had no choice but to send troops to attack Kita-Shinano again. Although Qianxin does not rely on killing people like Wan Yan Liang, this rebellion of Nagao Fujijing is undoubtedly a huge blow to her. If Nagao Fujikei unites with Takeda Shingen, then Takeda Shingen will inevitably send troops to Okushinano and Echigo. The reason why the Asadaki has not yet transferred the Shimono and Musashi backs is to prevent Takeda Shingen from leading troops north.

"Actually, my lord, there is a way to make Nagao Enoe Mamoru unable to continue to run rampant in Zhongyue and Xiayue." Hidesen Yamazaki instantly thought of a solution.

"How?" Chao Ding immediately became interested.

"It would be most appropriate for Shinbata to quickly withdraw from Yuri County to the three counties of Shonai, and let them send troops to quell the rebellion." Hidesen Yamazaki only came up with this plan.

"What do you mean is to let the Onodera family and the Salmon family continue to contain the Yuri Party, and then use the Shonai to quell the rebellion." After thinking about it, Asada did not object to this method, after all, if he didn't attack Nagao Fujikei, the four counties of Aizu would be invaded by him.

"Actually, you can order Sebe, Enzawa, Tsukiji, Okawa and other generals to attack the Yuri Party, so you can't abandon it all the time." Yamazaki Hidesen knew that Asadaku did not want to end the invasion of Yuri-gun, and immediately said a remedy.

"So be it." Chao Ding nodded.
