Chapter 357: Raid on Yamada

In the third year of Yonglu, April 27. Just when the lord of Sentoku Castle in Kani County, Asarishi Noriyu, sensed that the former ministers of the wealthy clans around Miyako Bay, such as the Tasuo family, the Sentoku family, the Shigeichi family, and the Tsugaru Ishi family, were about to launch a nationwide rebellion, and Ida Suo Mitsuyoshi (the son of Tasuo Masamitsu), Tian Suo Repair (a member of the Tian Suo family), Tian Suo Mitsuken (the younger brother of Tian Suo Mitsuyoshi), Tian Suo Mitsusho (a member of the Tian Suo family), Sasaki Yoshihari (the family of the Igen clan, the Tasuo clan), Kanaya Saemon (the family of the Kanigen clan, the Tasuo clan), Hanawa Ichijo (the former owner of the Hanawakan Pavilion, the family of the Kanita Suo clan), Katsuharu Shigeichi (former owner of the Shigeru City Pavilion, Kansuke of the Closed Igen Clan, Tasuo Clan), Tashiro Mitsuyo (Closed Igen Clan, Tasuo Clan), Tsusunori Nagasawa (Closed Igen Clan, Tasuo Clan), Edumaga Masamitsu (Son of Edumaga Masatomi), Minoru Tsugaruishi (Son of Tsugaru Yoshitomi), Nakatsuyama Yoshiren (Brother of Sentoku Yoshikatsu), Kansuke Hakoishi (Former Owner of the Hakoshikan), Mitsumi Wauchi (Closed Igen Clan, Tasuo Clan), Tasamitsu Akazen (Closed Igen Clan, Tasuo Clan), Kuga Egaruchi (Kanigen clan, Tasuo clan), Kamaishi Shinjuro (Kanigen clan, Tasuo clan), Shigemo Yoshitake (Kanigen clan, Tasuo clan) and other ronin, Noha samurai and other countrymen broke out early without the support of the Nanbu family and the Tono Asonuma family. In a short period of time, the people gathered thousands of people in Zaoikefeng Mountain, Takataki Mori Mountain and other places, and supported Tian Suoguang Hao as the supervisor of the closed Yi Tian Suo family, Tian Suo Guang repaired Tian Suo Guang after the service, Tian Suo Guangxian was a family member of the pen, Tian Suo Guang was still the military officer, and Tian Suo Guang was still the old man of the pen head.

Knowing that he was unable to defend all the castles in his domain, he ordered his relatives and retainers such as Sentoku Castle, Tasuo Castle, and Miyakokan to abandon the territories of Yamadakan, Hakoishi Castle, Ryorikan, Nejo, and Fukadokan, and use the few troops to defend Sentoku Castle, Tasuo Castle, and Miyakokan Castle.

The ultimate goal of the people in Tsui County was to capture the old lords such as Tian Suo Castle and Sentoku Castle, so after the soldiers recaptured Yamadakan, Hakoishi Castle, Ryorikan, Nejo, Fukadokan and other places, they began to rest and wait for reinforcements from the Nanbu family and the Endo Asono family. Tian Suo Guanghao, Tian Suo Mitsu Xian, Tian Suo Mitsu Sho and others knew that although their own troops were larger than the Uesugi army, the siege of the city would consume a large number of troops, and it was likely to cause the old territory to be captured and abandoned due to insufficient troops to occupy it for a long time. To the south, Hirotsuna Hamada, Shigetaka Motoyoshi, Naoaki Kumagai and other national lords were also eyeing the Tsui Gun, and they really wanted something to happen in the Tsui Gun, so that they could send troops to the Tsui Gun, so that they could make a contribution to the Uesugi family.

And there were only less than 600 troops under the command of Asari Noriyu, who were stationed in the three places of Sentoku Castle, Tiansuo Castle and Miyakokan. Among them, most of the defenders in the Miyako Museum were brought into the castle by the owner of the museum, Asarishi Shige, to garrison the castle, so only Yamauchi Kazutoyo, Yamauchi Yasutoyo (Yamauchi Kazutoyo's brother), Goto Weijing (Yamauchi's genealogy on behalf of the retainer), Goto Weizhong (for the younger brother of the Juni), grandfather Eshizaemon (Yamauchi genealogy on behalf of the retainer) and other concentric people more than ten people were left.

"Elder brother, now that a large army is pressing the border, there are only more than ten of us, how can we resist hundreds of enemy troops?! I knew that this was the case, so I went to Tiansuo City to garrison. Yasutoyo Yamauchi began to complain about why Yamauchi Kazutoyo didn't enter Tiansuo Castle with the Asarishi Shigeshi clan at the beginning.

"Yes, my lordship. Now that there is a bee in this Yi County, the shallow Li Hall in Tiansuo City is also precarious, so it is better for me to hand over the Miyako Hall to the crowd and save my life! Goto was the most important, and then he immediately admonished Yamauchi Kazutoyo.

"Miyakokan is also one of the gateways to Tian Suo Castle, and once Miyako Hall changes hands, then Tian Suo Castle will be cold. Under the nest, Ann has finished eggs?! The only way to do this now is to take advantage of the fact that the reinforcements of the southern family and the Azenuma family have not yet merged with a group of people, and gather the samurai in the surrounding areas to fight boldly, even if they die in battle, they will not insult the wisdom of the ancestors of the Yamauchi family in Oshu! "Yamauchi Kazutoyo doesn't plan to give up resistance, if he abandons the city and flees, will he be able to hold his head up in the eastern country in the future?

"What my brother said is very true, let me wait for the first battle in Miyako to become famous, so that the town government will look at it differently!" Yasutoyo Yamauchi saw that his brother Kazutoyo Yamauchi had made up his mind, and he supported his decision.

"Throw the universe away, life and death follow!" Goto is pure, Goto is heavy, grandfather Jiang Shizaemon and others immediately said in unison.

"At present, there are still Samurai in the vicinity of Abe, Iyomori Funakoshi, Daiuchizo Yamazaki, and Samori Koto, who have not yet followed the Tasuo clan to raise troops to rebel, and if we can get their support, maybe we can increase our strength by 300." Goto immediately made a suggestion to Yamauchi Kazutoyo for the net.

"In front of you is an abyss, behind you is endless karmic fire, guns are like forests to take great wealth, and men's blood is a deer knife. Defeat is the fall of the head one after another, and the tragic family name is cut off; Cheng is a dignified purple dress and a high crown, and he will enter the phase. My life is up to heaven and not by man, so I just fight him to break the net! Yamauchi Kazutoyo couldn't care less about himself and Yasuyo Yamauchi being the only blood and blood left in the Owari Yamauchi family, so he decided to take a gamble. As long as he can assist Asari Zeyu to pacify Guanyi County this time, then he will definitely be able to get the reuse of the court and get ahead.

In order to make the samurai around Miyako Bay, such as Abe kincho, Masanaga Komoto (a tributary of Yoshiaki Miura), Yamazaki Jinding, and Funakoshi Nagayuki (Ogasawara Nagakiyo clan), follow the Uesugi family with all their hearts, Yamauchi Kazutoyo and others had to exchange a victory for their support for the Uesugi family.

At this moment, some local warriors and countrymen lords in Guanyi County are riding on the wall to watch, and Yamauchi Kazutoshi and others can only gather all forces in the county by quickly defeating the troops of Guanyi County. Otherwise, when the armies of the Nanbu family and the Azenuma family arrive, they will have to let others cut off the good head.

Coincidentally, the retainers of a family of the family in the area around Funakoshi Bay, such as the lord of the Omaletsu Castle, the lord of the Hodo Pavilion, and the retainers of the family in the area around Funakoshi Bay, such as the lord of the Yamashi Castle, who were dispatched by Azenuma Hiroko, led an army of more than 700 to the north, intending to seize as much of the Uesugi family's territory as possible when a war broke out in the Tsui Prefecture.

On 28 April, at the same time that more than 700 troops of the Azenuma Army occupied the ungarrisoned Yamada Pavilion, more than 10 people led by Yamauchi Kazutoyo, Goto Ishishige, and his grandfather Ezoemon also came to the outside of the Yamada Pavilion.

After nightfall, Yamauchi Kazutoyo saw a large number of waterfowl near Yamada Bay, and wanted to emulate the story of Kai Genji's defeat of the Taira army, which was several times his size, in the Battle of Fujigawa. Afterwards, Yamauchi Kazutoyo, Goto Ishijo, grandfather Ezanemon and others led more than a dozen people to hold torches high, let out a strange shout together, and ran down from the hillside towards the direction of the reed wetland. The red-hot torches lit their faces crimson, and even the shouts became fiery.

At first, it was just one or two dozen awakened waterfowl flapping their wings and flying low and circling. As more than a dozen people, including Yamauchi Kazutoyo, Goto Ishishige, and his grandfather Esaemon, rushed into the wetland pond and trampled back and forth, and after the stimulation of the torches, the birds fluttered their wings and let out a terrible chirp. This voice, at first, like a bee ant, is low in the ear; Gradually become a tiger's roar, roaring in front and back; Compound into a swimming dragon, hovering in the heavens and the earth. In the end, it turned into an overwhelming shock, and it was viciously pushed from all directions, and it was bent on engulfing more than a dozen people such as Yamauchi Kazutoyo, Goto Ishi, and his grandfather Ezanemon.

Countless birds in the sky are rushing left and right, hugging densely into a group, sometimes to the left, and sometimes to the right. Gradually, they gathered together again, flying high into the sky, and then falling rapidly, passing by Hojo Tokimasa, like locusts like arrows, like a swift wind. At the same moment, sparsely beating torches were everywhere in all directions, and the voices of people, horses, waterfowl, wings, and wind and clouds were mixed together, boundless, and endless. More than a dozen people, including Yamauchi Kazutoyo, Goto Ishishi, and his grandfather Ezanemon, kept running, and there was a huge sound in their ears like a surging wave. Everyone was dizzy and ran all the way with Yamauchi Kazutoyo, walking among the birds. I don't know how long the time passed, but it finally stopped, and everyone was gasping for breath, and it took a long time to calm down, but there was still thunder in everyone's ears, and in fact, the frightened birds had already flown towards Yamadakan.

At this time, everyone raised their heads and found that the sky was densely covered with all kinds of frightened birds, not only them, but even the mountains, rivers, forests and grasses in the distance were full of birds flying at will. As far as the eye can see, all kinds of firelight can be seen everywhere in the mountains. A loud and noisy sound swept through everything, and even the earth seemed to shake.

At this time, more than a dozen people, including Yamauchi Kazutoyo, Goto Ishishige, and his grandfather Ezanemon, all got on their horses one after another and rushed towards the Yamada Pavilion. It didn't take long for more than a dozen talents, including Yamauchi Kazutoyo, Goto Yushi, and grandfather Ejin Saemon, to run away, and in front of them was the southern gate of the former Asa Noriyu Yuki-Yamada Pavilion. At this time, I saw the flames in the Yamada Pavilion, and the figures were longing, and countless disheveled Samurai of the Azenuma Army, Ashigaru, and peasant soldiers fled back and forth aimlessly, shouting loudly in despair.
