Chapter 103: The Independence of the Highest Rank (Plus Update)

"Yifang, what do you mean by that?" Mogami Yoshimori asked puzzled. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"My lord, now that the Date family is in turmoil, it is the family that has taken the opportunity to be independent. What a good time to stand! Mogami Yoshibo said, "Now that Date Uemune and Date Harumune are facing each other, Date Harumun has concentrated the forces in his command near Nishiyama Castle, and the rear territory is empty. In the name of supporting Date Uesune's hall, the family took the opportunity to attack Date Harumune's territory. In this way, it also holds up in the general righteousness, and can also obtain substantial benefits. When the time comes, the family can declare independence and get rid of the yoda family in one fell swoop. ā€

"Yoshibo-sama is right!" The definition of the clan family, which has a good relationship with Mogami Yoshibo, immediately supported and said, "My lord, this family can no longer be idle." In the long run, the top house will be gone. Now is also the time to actively expand the territory, when the power of the family becomes stronger, such as the Aoka, Tiantong, Hanhejiang and other forces will be forced to surrender to the family! ā€

The son of the clan family, the clan family, also said, "Not only that, but if you send troops, you can show the world the strength of my supreme family, and you can also show favor to forces like Date Zhizongden's side, and you can also get a territory." After this is done, the family will be able to take the opportunity to become independent and get rid of the shackles of the Date family. At that time, the Date family was still limited to civil strife, and there was no time to take care of the family, which is really a lot of success! ā€

Although Mogami Yoshimori's ability is mediocre, he can still distinguish the pros and cons. Seeing that the important ministers in the family all said this, Mogami Yoshimori also slapped his thigh and said loudly, "Okay! Since this is the case, the family immediately sent troops to attack Date Harunzong! ā€

"But where should I attack?" Mogami Yoshimori continued to ask.

"My lord, please see," the clan said, standing up and pointing directly to the map on the screen, "Date Harumune's territory bordering the main family is in the southern part of the family, and there are two places that are closest to the main family. One is the Miyazawa here, but the Nagai here. ā€

"Nagai is east of Koshiwa Castle at home, on the west side of Mt. Zao, and it can be reached in one hour by a hurried march from Kashiwa Castle. The other Miyazawa is located in the southern part of the main family's Kotaki Tsuna, at the foot of Mt. Hakutaka. Your Majesty thought you could choose one of these two places to attack! The family said with a straight face.

But it's okay for you to let Mogami Yoshimori do the "true or false questions", but it will be a little difficult for him to let him do such a "multiple-choice question", so Mogami Yoshimori looked at the other retainers and said, "Everyone, I don't know if you think the family is attacking Miyazawa or Nagai?" ā€

After everyone discussed for a while, Nakano Yoshiaki spoke, "My lord, Miyazawa is located at the foot of White Eagle Mountain, and it is the easiest castle to capture, but Miyazawa is close to the Kamiyama Castle of the Kamiyama family (I rub it, even the castle is the same, and I am also drunk. The head of the Kamiyama family, Yoshitada Kamiyama, has always bowed down to Date Harumune, so if the family sends troops to attack Miyazawa, the Kamiyama family will definitely send troops to support the Date family. If the war drags on, it's hard to guarantee that the surrounding forces won't also take the opportunity to attack their own territory. In this way, the situation of the family is very dangerous. ā€

"Although Nagai is far away from the family's territory, Nagai is located between Mt. Zao and Mt. Hikifu, and it is the main road between Minamiidewa and Minami-Mutsu, so if the family attacks Nagai, they will be able to separate the Nishiyama Castle of the Date family from Yonezawa Castle in Zhishi-gun. In this way, even if Date Harumune wanted to return to Gunzhishi-gun, he would need to take a detour from Mt. Azuma in the south. ā€

"But if you take a detour from there, the distance is too far, and it is not conducive to Date Harumun's battle against the family, so once the family attacks Nagai, it will basically be invincible." Yoshiaki Nakano said excitedly.

The clan on the side also spoke, "My lord, since this family is absolutely independent from the subordinate of the Date family, then we must be fully prepared, and my majesty agrees with Lord Nakano's opinion, and it is the best choice to capture Nagai." ā€

Since Nakano Yoshiaki and the clan have said this part, Mogami Yoshimori also nodded and said, "Okay!" In that case, let's attack Nagai! ā€

"The clan is determined, Nakano Yoshiaki, the task of capturing Nagai is handed over to the two of you, you must return victorious!"

"Hi," Clan Edano and Nakano Yoshiaki said excitedly.

Nakano Yoshiaki and the clan are both the "young Zhuang faction" of the current top family, so they are eager to obtain meritorious service so that they can take over their respective fathers' positions in the future. So both of them are competing with each other, but they have a good personal relationship, so even if there is competition, it is healthy competition.

"Lord, after the family becomes independent, it still needs to be friendly with the surrounding wealthy families, and it is not easy to fight with the surrounding wealthy families in a short period of time. You can engage in diplomatic goodwill with the surrounding wealthy clans. Mogami Yoshibo continued, "This will reduce some of the external pressure on the family, which will benefit the family's situation after independence." ā€

"Well, that's right!" Mogami Yoshimori nodded and said in agreement, "I'll leave this matter to you." ā€

"Hey!" Mogami Yoshibo replied.

.........

Two days later, in the castle of Mt. Oshi, Nanlu, Date Harumune's own possession.

"What do you say? Mogami captured Nagai Castle? Date Harumuni said with a confused expression.

Aoki Izu Mamoru, a major minister of the Date family, said, "My lord, the generals of the Mogami family, Ichichina and Nakano Yoshiaki, sent 2000 troops, and now they have occupied Nagai Castle, and declared their independence to the outside world, leaving the main family!" ā€

"Bastard!" Date Harumuni was furious and said, "Mogami Yoshimori! Hum! ā€

"Lord, now that the family is fighting against the main hall, the troops of Yonezawa City in the rear have been transferred to Xishan City, do you want to withdraw the army back?" Aoki Izu Mamoru said.

"Mamoru Izu, now that Nagai has fallen into the hands of the Mogami family, it is impossible to rescue him directly. You have ordered Harada to return with their respective forces first, as long as Miyazawa Castle and Nishikone Castle are held, the Mogami family will not be able to continue attacking the main family. Date Harumune said.

"In addition, send a message to the Shangshan family and the Ayubei family, and ask them to send troops to help. Then inform the Tendo family and the Kazuoka family, etc., and give the Mogami family external pressure! Date Harumun said with a solemn face, "Now our rear must not be chaotic." Originally, we were at a disadvantage in the battle with our father, and we couldn't let the Mogami family drag us back behind us anymore! ā€

"Hey," Aoki Izumori said worriedly, "but the forces such as the Tendo family are the division of the Mogami family after all, and if you want to win them over to fight with the Mogami family, I'm afraid it's a little difficult." But without their assistance, the forces of the Kamiyama family and other wealthy clans alone would not be able to stop the forces of the Mogami family."

Date Harumuni nodded and said, "Even so, it's okay to delay the attack speed of the Mogami family, and then everything will be worry-free when Harada grows up and his son return to Yonezawa Castle." ā€

"Our focus is still on the side of Date and Nobuo, and now that my father has fled to Marumori Castle in Igu-gun, our current situation is not optimistic! Hate Xiao Liangchuan Zongchao, this bastard! Hmph," Date Harumuna said angrily.

"My lord, now that most of the wealthy families in the Mutsu region have fallen to the main hall, what should we do?" Mamoru Aoki Izu asked.

"What else can I do?" Date Harumun said unwillingly: "If you can fight, you can fight!" ā€

"If you can't beat it, you have to rely on other means..........
