The lord of Dewa Sazawa Castle, Kanetoyo Higuchi, took only ten samurai to Central Vietnam. Due to the sudden departure of Kanetoyo Higuchi, not long after Chisaka Keijin took over Sasawa Castle, Mogami Yoshimori sent his retainers Lang Party to gather wild samurai and wealthy clans and began to attack Hasedo Castle. Mogami Yoshimori gave the task of attacking Hasedo Castle to Takenaga Yoshitada, a powerful minister of the same clan.

On April 19, Takenaga Yoshitada, Takenaga Mitsukane, Satomi Echigo, Satomi Minbu, Satomi Sabu, and others gathered a crowd of 1,500 to besiege Hasedo Castle, which had only 700 defenders. If it weren't for the fact that Katsucho Sebe, who was worried about the loss of Hasedo Castle, sent his retainer Naito Saemon to lead a hundred ashigaru into the castle to assist in the defense, I am afraid that Chisaka Keikin's defense would be even more stretched.

Hasedo Castle's castle defense was relatively strong compared to all the castles of Mogami Castle, and it was easy to defend and difficult to attack. As Mogami approached Hasedo Castle step by step, Chisaka Keijin ordered his only twenty iron cannons to shoot at Mogami Shogami, who could only return fire with bows and arrows. Relying on the strength of the outnumbered people, the Mogami army quickly attacked under the Otemon Gate, and the defenders of the castle immediately swarmed out, and the two armies engaged in a white-knuckle battle in the streets. The battle to defend Hasedo Castle has just begun. From noon to evening, the Mogami retainer Okuni Daizen was captured by Naito Saemon, a retainer of the Sebe family, and the two armies withdrew separately.

Mogami did not stop, and the next day they still launched an attack. However, this time, the Uesugi army did not go out of the city to meet the battle, and Chisaka Keijin knew that it would be at least two days before the reinforcements arrived here, so he couldn't let his combat power decrease too quickly.

Under the blows of the Uesugi army's bows and arrows and iron cannons, the Mogami army was unable to break through Hasedo Castle's Otemon at all. After nearly 100 casualties, Satomi Echigo, the old retainer of the Mogami family, had to consider the question of when the reinforcements from the Uesugi family would come. Mogami Yoshimori did not arrange follow-up reinforcements for this army, which means that once it is surrounded, there will be no reinforcements to save this lone army.

Satomi Echigo, an important minister of the Takenaga family, sent his second son, Satomi Sabu, to Yamagata Castle to ask for reinforcements. On the one hand, he also gathered the surrounding thieves and ronin, and obtained a new force of more than 300 people. This brought the number of the most advanced troops to nearly 1,700.

Tao Qingxian after learning of the surprise attack of Mogami's house. He immediately dispatched two people, Tomida Shimi, and Nagai Joshiro Tomita Takashi, with 800 reinforcements. Usami Dingkatsu and Toshihiro Anazawa and others surrounded Kawaguchi Castle on the Ashina clan's side.

Date Harumune, with the assistance of Kasai Harunobu, Osaki Yoshinobu, Spo Kanzane and others, instantly attacked the old domain. In just a few days, the Date family recaptured the lost Nishiyama Castle, Okuma Castle, Ryokawa Castle, Kakuda Castle, Shibata Castle, Kanayama Castle, Hanmoto Castle, and Watari Castle. The Soma family was powerless.

Harutsuna Kaji, Katsunaga Sebe, Kiyomi Kurokawa and others who came to Aizu to support had to consider the gains and losses of their skills and bid farewell to Tao Qingxian.

Tao Qingxian, Jieshan Yunsheng and others could only let it go, they understood that Yangbei Zhong was not a direct minister of the court, at best they were only guest generals, and they could not force them to stay in Aizu and Dewa and other places.

Kadi Chungang, Katsucho Sebe and others are bent on leaving, and Tao Qingxian does not want to stay, after all, the twisted melon is not sweet. He informed Harutsuna Kaji and others that Tadahide Okawa, Socho Sasaki, Yasushi Higashi, and others had become enemies of the Uesugi family, and hoped that they would pay attention.

After hearing this, Kadi, Sebe and the others thanked them and left with their troops.

In this way, the battle situation in Aizu and the southern part of Dewa will be supported by Tao Qingxian alone. The burden on him is not insignificant.

Even if the people of the northern part of the country returned to Echigo, then they would have to face attacks from forces such as Daihoji, Okawa, and Sado, the four Honma clans. Returning to the old collar is not the end, but a new beginning.

However, Naito Saemon, a retainer of the Sebe, did not break through in time to meet with Katsunaga Seibe, and he still assisted Chisaka Keijin in defending Hasedo Castle. It wasn't that Naito Saemon didn't want to go back to Echigo with Katsucho Sebe, but he just thought that once Hasedo Castle was lost, the large number of castles in the rear would not be enough to defend against the invasion of Mogami Army, and it would be quite dangerous for the Yohoku people to withdraw to Echigo.

At the most difficult time for the Soma family, Soma Yoshiyin selected a high-quality white horse from the pasture, and he asked the retainer Ei Yinji to immediately set off for Musashi with this good horse. Soma Yoshiyin himself hasn't even sat down in Kodaka Castle yet, and the Date family has come over like a homecoming group. The Date family was able to get the support of famous families such as Kasai and Osaki by virtue of marriage, and the Soma family was under the protection of the Uesugi family for a long time, although it was a little similar to the Tamura family, but the Tamura family was at least not the same as the Soma family, and was once beaten by the Date family and lost even the territory. Soma Yoshiyin chose to send the horse at this time, just to continue to curry favor with the court.

On April 21, when Mogami Yoshimori sent two 300 reinforcements from Iida Harima and Koyoshi Naotoki, Takenaga Yoshitada decided to immediately launch a general attack on Hasedo Castle.

This time, Mogami attacked the city with nearly 2,000 troops, and the defenders in the city were overstretched due to the large defensive area, which seemed very passive. Naito Saemon once led his army out of the castle, and fought with Mogami in a white-knuckle battle outside the castle, and the battle was extremely fierce.

In the fierce battle, Naito Saemon was hit by several arrows and had to retreat into the castle for treatment. And the Mogami family also paid the price of Iida Harima and Satomi Sabu killed in battle and killed and injured hundreds of people. In order to better defend Hasedo Castle, Chisaka Keijin could only order the defenders to withdraw from Demaru and Sannomaru to Ninomaru and Honmaru to garrison. Before the Uesugi army withdrew, Sannomaru's longhouse, arrowland, and Sumitaru were all burned down by Chisaka Keijin.

Chisaka Keijin didn't know that he had only pinned down the Mogami army on one road, and the Mogami army on the other road was led by Mogami Yoshimitsu, the eldest son of Mogami Yoshimori, and the 6,000 Mogami army came out from Yamagata Castle. Yoshimitsu Mogami was not nervous for the first time as the chief general, but was a little excited. He did not plan to lead his army to join Takenaga Yoshitada and others, but set out from Yamagata Castle, passed through Yamano, Hejo Castle, and then went south along the Hayama Mountain Range, and his troops were directed towards Yonezawa.

In just a few days, the three castles of Arato Castle, Sakura Castle, and Otsuka Castle were easily captured by Mogami Army. The three people who garrisoned these three cities, Kukita Hakuki, Noshi Matahei, and Hirata Owari, were all captured by the Mogami army, and the defenders killed more than 200 people, and the rest were captured.

Due to Mogami Yoshimitsu's new way of marching, Tao Qingxian was completely unexpected. He can only order the defenders from all over Minamiidewa to enter Yonezawa Castle for garrison, as long as Yonezawa Castle is ensured, then there is still a chance to counterattack and recapture it.

Fortunately, Yamamoto Temple Keicho was stationed in Zuoze Castle in time, and he was carefully guarded, and he was not captured by Mogami Yoshimitsu. However, Yamamoto Temple Keichonaga's original Koushikawa Castle was breached by Mogami Army.

In Yonezawa Castle, Kawada Naga discovered the misdeeds of Yagoro Nakatsugawa, Yashiro Yashiro, Yashiro Repair, and others, and promptly ordered them to cut their stomachs.

At this time, Date Harumune also led more than 10,000 coalition troops to attack Soma Territory again. Sakamoto Castle, Kosai Castle, Maruyama Castle, Ono Castle, Hut Castle, and Ryshoujo Castle were conquered by the coalition forces like autumn wind sweeping away leaves. Komagaling Castle was garrisoned by Soma family old Mizutani Yinmori, Kihata Morikiyo, and Kadoma Sadakin, and the number of defenders in the castle reached more than 2,500.

The defenders of Komagalin Castle are almost the maximum mobilization limit of the Soma family at present, and once the northern gateway of the Soma family, Komaginoling Castle, falls, then Date Harune will be able to drive straight in, and he can easily break through the Soma family's stronghold, Kotaka Castle.

The governor of the Soma family, Soma Yoshiyin, did not sit still, he sent his old man Yoshinobu Sato to Aizu to ask for reinforcements, while he himself was preparing to pack up his things and leave Kodaka Castle with his family behind Komagamine Castle and flee to Aizu Wakamatsu Castle.

For Soma Yoshiyin, running has become a necessary skill for him, but for Tao Qingxian, it is not possible. The task given to him by Asadaki is to hold the territories of Aizu, Minamiideha, and Nanmutsu, and if he abandons the defenders and territories in various places and escapes, then Asadaki will not let him go easily. Some of the territories of Aizu, Mutsu, and Dewa were all shot down by the soldiers of Asada, and they were not sent by others-

The Kuroiwa Castle, Oki Castle, and Nakajo Castle under the Peak of Okushinano Hiroshi are all fluttering with black flags on a white background. Takanashi Hidemasa was defeated by Takanashi Yoriji with less than 1,000 people in the east of Okushino Madarao Mountain, and the original 2,000 troops were defeated, but by Takanashi Hidemasa, more than 200 people were left to return to Nakano Kokan. This made Saito Asanobu, Suda Mitsukin, and Kanazugi Yoshiyo very embarrassed, and Hidemasa Takanashi completely disrupted their original plan. In addition, after the victory of Takanashi Yoiji, he retreated to the cage castle in Iiyama Castle, which made Saito Asanobu and others unable to start.

Although the reinforcements of the three of them numbered 4,000, Iiyama Castle could not be captured in a day, and Saito Asanobu and others had to withdraw. In addition, Takeda Shingen went north with an army of 12,000, and after discussing with Saito Asanobu, Kanazu Yoshiro and Suda Mitsukin, Kanazu Yoshiro entered Nakano Kodate Castle with 1,000 reinforcements to assist in the defense, while Saito Asanobu and Suda Manqin led 3,000 troops to support Murakami Yoshikiyo.

Although the Takanashi family and the Murakami family of Okushino are attached to the Uesugi family, they are a little like 'chicken ribs', and it is a pity to abandon them after they are tasteless. The territory of the Takanashi clan is located at the junction of Echigo and Okushino, and as long as the Takanashi clan opens the gate, then any force of Koshin can go north along the streets of Zenkoji Temple and drive straight into Echigo, even if it can't defeat Kasuga Yama Castle, then it can still divide the narrow Echigo country into several parts, so that it cannot be taken care of from end to end.

According to the current momentum of the Takeda family, it is only a matter of time before the Murakami family is destroyed, and as long as the Murakami family is destroyed, the next target will be the Takanashi family. As soon as the Takanashi family is lost, the barrier of Echigo Province will be lost. If one day Takeda Shingen is in high spirits and goes to Kasuga Yamajo Castle for a package such as an 'armed one-day tour' or an 'armed three-day tour', at that time, Echigo, in addition to the Hagimoto Miteyama people, whether it is the Yohoku people or the former ministers of the Echigo guardian family, they will be thinking about how to get in touch with the Takeda family.
