After Dabaosi Yizeng fled to the city of Pucheng, he was not willing to be put on such a position by the Satsue Zongsheng. Immediately, more than 1,000 peasants and soldiers in the territory were mobilized, and the Tosa Lin family jointly sent troops to attack the Saragoe family's own base of Sarawatsu Castle.

The Tozenji family of the wealthy clan of Tagawa County and the Laiji family of Mankai County sent troops to respond, and for a time the Shayue family faced the siege of more than 3,000 enemy troops, and the situation was very critical.

On July 27, Shimizu Yoshitaka, the head of the Shimizu family, a wealthy clan in Mogami County, suddenly sent troops from Shimizu Castle and led an army of 1,500 troops westward across Mt. Tashiro to attack Fujishima Castle of the Tosa Rin.

Fujishima Castle is located in the middle of the Saratsu family and the Daihoji family, and once Fujishima Castle is lost, then the retreat of the Daihoji family will be cut off.

In desperation, Daihoji Yoshizen could only divide part of his troops to return to the army to support Fujishima Castle. For a time, the pressure on Sarawa-Yue City dropped sharply.

On July 29, Takahashi Kokoku of the Tsugawa family suddenly withdrew his troops from Yachishima Castle and returned to Higahojo Castle without moving. On August 2, Takahashi Kokoku suddenly bypassed Mt. Chokai and appeared outside Sasaki's house, Salmon Castle.

However, due to the steep terrain of Salmon Castle, Takahashi Xingguo and others have been unable to attack it for a long time. The next day, Sasaki Sadatsuna, who was fighting at Tendo Castle, immediately led his army back to support after learning the news that the Honto was besieged by the Tsugawa family.

On August 3, when Sasaki Sasatsuna returned to Salmon Castle, Takahashi's Kokoku suddenly disappeared again.

At this time, the fighting in Tagawa County suddenly escalated.

Shimizu Yoshihiro succeeded in defeating Fujishima Castle Lord Fujishima Sunshichiro, and Fujishima Castle was immediately captured by the Shimizu family, and the Tosabin Zendong team that went to support Fujishima Castle was repulsed. The next day, Daihoji Yoshizen and others abandoned Sarawatsu Castle and turned back to attack Fujishima Castle, and the two sides fought for four hours under Fujishima Castle.

On the evening of the same day, the head of the Satsushi family, Sosatsu Somori, suddenly arrived with his army and attacked the rear of the Dabaoji family at night. The forces of the Shimizu family in Fujishima Castle also took advantage of the chaos to respond, and for a time the Daihoji Yoshizen fled in embarrassment, and the forces of the Tosa Lin family, the Lai Ji family, and the Tozenji family were also defeated on all fronts.

On August 7, the Saragoe family and the Shimizu family formed a coalition of 2,400 men and set out from Fujishima Castle and went straight to Opu Castle, the home of the Daihoji family, and there was a great situation of attacking and destroying the Daihoji family.

On August 9th, Daihoji Yoshizen sent a heavy minister to Echigo to Echigo to ask for help from the Echigo guardian Uesugi clan (this is not Uesugi Kenshin, now Uesugi Kenshin is still surnamed Nagao, which refers to Echigo's guardian Uesugi Dingshi!). The Daihoji family has always been a subordinate of the Uesugi family. ）。 Uesugi Dingshi, the head of the Echigo Uesugi family, immediately ordered the head of Honjo, the lord of Murakami Castle, to lead the Echigo Ayukawa family to dispatch 2,000 troops to urgently rescue Ogasa Castle.

With the arrival of reinforcements from the Uesugi family, the decline of the Daihoji family finally stabilized, and the two sides turned into a tug-of-war, fighting endlessly in the area of Ogasa Castle.

On August 15, Sasaki Sadatsuna, the head of the Sasaki family, took advantage of the fact that the main force of the Shimizu family was fighting in Tagawa County, and led an army to raid the Shimizu family's own Shimizu Castle. Shimizu Yoshitaka had no hope of returning to the army, so he could only ask for help from his ally, the small country Hosokawa family.

At this time, Hosokawa Naomoto, the head of the Hosokawa family in the small country, received a letter of help from Shimizu Yoshitaka in Tendo Castle, and immediately evacuated from Tendo Castle to lead the army to support Shimizu Castle, and the main lord of Ohanazawa Castle, a major minister of the Shimizu family, also evacuated from Tendo Castle and returned to Shimizu Castle.

For a time, with the withdrawal of Ohana Shigenao and Hosokawa Naomoto, the number of Hao clan coalition forces in the area of Tiantong City decreased sharply. Seeing this, Mogami Yoshimori immediately organized troops to storm Tiantong Castle.

Mogami Yoshimori, who thought he could win in one battle, was defeated and lost.

Just as Mogami Yoshishou was storming Tiantong City, the head of the Yanze family, Yanze Manyan, suddenly led his army around the rear of Mogami and attacked Mogami Yoshishou's main formation. Mogami Yoshimori was powerless to parry, so he could only retreat.

Immediately afterwards, the wealthy family Shangshan family, who had been ambiguous with the most dominant family, suddenly rebelled. When the lord Shangshan Yoshiaki sent troops from the original base Shangshan Castle, he captured the Gubai Castle of the Mogami family with 400 troops, and the lord of Gubai Castle Gu Bai Naoqin died in battle.

The battle was not going well in the front, and there were wealthy clans in the rear. For a while, the top family could not take care of each other, so they had no choice but to withdraw the army. However, the entire Hazen region has begun to be in chaos...........

.............

On August 27, the 13th year of the Astronomical Calendar, the Tsugawa family held an evaluation meeting within the castle tower of Ueno Castle.

After the last battle to defeat the Niga family, Yoshikage Komura, who was the first to take the lead, was given 1,000 koku to Chiyuki of Tsugawa Castle, and the total Chiyuki had reached 4,600 koku, ranking first among the retainers of the Tsugawa family. This was followed by 3,200 koku from Masashige Tozawa, and then 2,400 koku from Kuji Mizutani.

Shuichiro Yagyu was awarded 200 koku to Zangli Temple Castle for his exploits in capturing the local Masaki Juntada, while Takahashi Kokoku was given 300 koku for his exploits in capturing Niga Hojo Castle and his exploits in attacking the Daihoji and Sasaki families.

Inside the castle tower of Ueno Castle, the retainers of the Tsugawa family were sitting in the castle tower, staring closely at Tsugawa Soji sitting on the main seat, waiting for Tsugawa Soji to speak.

Looking around at the retainers around, Tsugawa Soji suddenly said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this assessment is mainly to discuss the family's next combat goals. ”

"Ten Guards, bring me the map!" Soji Tsugawa then said to the wise Jubei behind him.

"Hah!"

In a short time, the wise Jubei placed a huge map of Dewa Province next to Soharu Tsugawa. This map was produced by the Tsugawa Soji people over a period of four months, and the content is very detailed, and the situation of the entire Dewa country is vividly displayed on this screen-like map.

"Everyone!" Soji Tsugawa stood next to the map and said loudly, "Last month, the various forces in the Hazen region continued to fight, and to this day, there are constant disputes. That said, the target of the attack is not here, but here! As he spoke, Soharu Tsugawa drew a large circle somewhere on the map with his hand.

"Akita-gun!" Soji Tsugawa said loudly, "Since the last battle of Akita Tsuka, the Andong family was defeated by the main family, although the strength of the Andong family has recovered for such a long time, it is still not enough. ”

"According to the news from Jiro Iwaki, the overlord of Mutsu, Harusama Minami, is at war with the Nanaoka family and the Spo family, and there are many incidents in the territory. The subordinate wealthy Dapu family and others are also beginning to move, and this is a good time for us to unify Yu in one go! Soji Tsugawa said in high spirits.

As soon as Tsugawa Soji's words fell, Yoshikawa Hiroya, the lord of Hondo Castle among the retainers, couldn't help but speak, "My lord! Your Majesty has been waiting for this day for a long time! The Anton family, the heyday of fashion and not the opponent of the family, not to mention the great loss of strength now? ”

"I am asking to serve as the front army, and I will definitely capture Hiyama City for the lord!" Yoshikawa Hiroya said excitedly.

"My lord! I am also willing to serve as a former soldier in the next! ”

"Wise light for a long time!"

"Count my wife Mu Hirohiro one!"

For a while, the retainers of the Tsugawa family in the hall were excited and shouted loudly.

"That's it!" Tsugawa Soji waved his hand, satisfied with the attitude of his retainers.

"The dispatch of troops is set after the autumn harvest, this will not become, now I will explain the pre-war arrangements!" Soji Tsugawa continued.

Hearing Tsugawa Soji's words, everyone in the hall sat down one after another, looking at Tsugawa Soji with a look of hope, expecting Tsugawa Soji to call his name.
