Asakura Zong died, although the news was hidden from the vast majority of people, but this obviously did not include the important ministers of the Asakura family.

At this time, in the main camp of the Asakura family, Asakura Keiki, Asakura Jingjing, Asakura Jinglong, Asakura Keiren and others knelt next to Asakura Zongdi's corpse, and their faces were covered with a sad and confused performance.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Taro Saemon Captain Hall has died, and now it is the time of the war with the Miyoshi family, what should we do?" It was Asakura Jinglong who spoke, and it was not a day or two for this thing to click on the duties of the Asakura family's army, but when he really saw that Asakura Zong was dead, Asakura Jinglong also felt a little bit in his heart.

"I think that one person should be temporarily appointed as the general to coordinate the whole army, and at the same time, another person should be sent to escort the remains of Taro Saemon Hall back to Echizen! At the same time, please leave here immediately so that the situation will not deteriorate! ”

"Not bad! I think only the arrival of the lord can make up for the impact of the death of Taro Saemon Captain Hall on the family! "Everyone, you said word by word.

"So, who should be given the post of general general?" Asakura Keiki set his sights on the others.

Hearing this, everyone fell silent for a while.

"I thought that the non-right guard hall could not take on this great responsibility!" Asakura Keiran looked at Asakura Keitaka on the side and said.

Hearing that Asakura Keiren recommended himself, Asakura Keitaka was overjoyed, but Mogami still postponed and said, "In the next talent, not only Taro Saemon Captain Palace, but also in case, it is really unbearable to take on this big responsibility!" ”

"Xuanfan Zhudian is right, the right guard hall is a public pen, at this time the lord is not there, should be the right guard hall to take charge of the overall situation!" Asakura Jingjing also voted for Asakura Jinglong at this time.

Now the scene is suddenly three to one, although Asakura Keiki is unwilling, but still said, "I also think that the right guard hall is the most suitable person!" Please also ask the right guard lieutenant to focus on the overall situation and don't shirk! ”

"Besides, I am asking to be able to escort my father's body back to Echizen, I wonder what you think?" Asakura Keiki then asked.

Of course, Asakura Keitaka immediately said that he had no opinion. Joking Asakura Keiki did not object to taking over the post of general general, so he would definitely have to repay the favor, not to mention that escorting the body back was not a good thing.

"On the Tsugawa family's side, the family should also send someone to inform them." At the end, Asakura Keiki said again.

Asakura Jinglong nodded, except for Asakura Zongdi, who was already cold, he still had a good personal relationship with Tsugawa Soji.

At night, Asakura Keiki took advantage of the night to bring hundreds of cronies to knock Asakura Zongdi's body into a large jar, which was filled with potions to make the corpse not easily decomposable. Then, he rushed to Echizen without stopping.

Looking back on the life of the god of war, in fact, it is also a lot of feelings. In order not to be said by the bigwigs, then I will write two sentences casually.

In short, Asakura Sodra is the pillar of the Asakura family, supporting the operation of the Asakura family with his personal prestige and ability. Historically, after the death of Asakura Muneto, the Asakura family quickly declined and was eventually wiped out by Oda Nobunaga.

This is mainly due to the fact that Asakura Yoshikyo and others easily changed the established strategy specified by Asakura Sodrip and Asakura Takakei during their lifetimes. For example, Asakura Sodrip and Asakura Sadakei have always insisted on being enemies of Ichikozong during their lifetimes, but after Asakura Sodri died, Asakura Yoshikage started a PY deal with Ichikozong.

Besides, Ashikaga Yoshiaki was killed that year, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki fled everywhere like a motherless child. At that time, the first place Ashikaga Yoshiaki went to was the Asakura family, hoping that Asakura Yoshikei could come forward to lead the army to Shangluo and help him regain power. With the strength of the Asakura family at that time, although it was a little difficult to go to Rakuro alone, as long as the Asakura family moved, the Rokkaku family and the Asai family of Omi would inevitably respond. Even if he can't succeed in Shangluo in the end, it will be a great boost to the reputation of the Asakura family, and it is still unknown whether there will be a hillbilly like the Demon King at that time.

And at that time, the Miyoshi family was also unstable, Miyoshi Chokei was dead, the family was torn apart, and Matsunaga Shu and Miyoshi were in opposition to each other, so it can be said that as long as Asakura Yoshikei sent troops to defeat the Miyoshi family and control the Kinai region, it was not impossible.

But Asakura Yoshikei is so brainless that he has always ignored Ashikaga Yoshiaki's request. In the end, there was no way, Ashikaga Yoshiaki simply found Oda Nobunaga at that time, and as for the later ending, it is familiar.

And from these things, it can be seen that the importance of Asakura Zongdi in Asakura's family. Just imagine, if Asakura Zongdi survives for more than ten years, and then Ashikaga Yoshiaki comes to ask for help again, Asakura Zongdi's vision will inevitably send troops.

By the way, Asakura Zongdi has led troops to Shangluo several times in his life.

Of course, history has no ifs.

......

When Tsugawa Soji learned of Asakura Sote's death, it was already the second day after the capture of Yagami Castle.

Due to the high density of Kasai Motosei, the Tsugawa family had specific information about Matsunaga Nagayori's grain transportation, and finally Akechi Mitsuhide and others defeated the grain transportation team sent by Matsunaga Nagayori and cut off the food supply of Yagami Castle.

And in this regard, Matsunaga Nagayori didn't dare to let go of two farts, because Shioni Castle had been surrounded by the forces of the Tsugawa family's fifteen legions, the diplomatic Hojo family.

Hatano Harimi was waiting for food to run out of food in the city, and the food in the city had already run out. As a mountain city, the limitations were reflected at this time, and after the food was consumed, the fate of the Eight Upper Cities had already been decided.

Even if Hatano Harimi was reluctant to open the castle, the ashigaru and samurai below wanted to starve to death. Finally, on a quiet night, a samurai of the Hatano clan opened the gates of Yagami Castle, and the Tsugawa clan's forces suddenly rushed in, crushing the defenders who were already starving and incapacitated.

Hatano Harumi hurriedly asked to surrender, but was refused. In desperation, Hatano Haritori, Hatano Hideji, father and son were seppuku in the castle tower, and the retainers who died were Hatano Motohide and others.

The castle tower of Yagami Castle had already been set on fire before Hatano Harumi cut the abdomen, and it was now in ruins.

"My lord, the news just came from the Asakura family." Sanada Yutaka came to Tsugawa Soji's side and said with a worried face: "Asakura Taro Saemon Captain Hall died ten days ago. ”

"Is Asakura Sect dead?" Soji Tsugawa nodded, "So what's going on on with the Asakura family?" ”

"The position of the chief general is temporarily held by the Asakura Right Guard Captain, and the remains of the Taro Saemon Captain have been escorted back to Echizen by the Asakura Kuro Saemon Captain! At present, the Asakura family's forces have retreated twenty miles and are stationed along the Uji River. ”

"The forces of the Rokkaku family and the Kitabatake family have also stopped attacking, and I think they have noticed the abnormality of the Asakura family, so I guess the coalition forces are still discussing countermeasures at this time."

"It's okay, let Rokkaku Dinglai and the others continue to drag Miyoshi Changqing in Kyoto, and the family will continue to wave the army to the south and march towards Harima!" Soji Tsugawa said expressionlessly.

Sanada Yutaka was stunned when he heard this, "Then Tanba's Matsunaga Nagayori and the others are not left alone by their own family?" ”

"The Hatano family has been destroyed, and the Naito family is already alone in Tamba. The family has ordered the Akai family and the wealthy families of Tanba to continue to attack the Naito family! ”
