The Uesugi Army and the three allied forces of Takeda, Urano, and Takaru Nagano held each other in Nishi-Umino for nearly half a month, and Takeda Katsuyori, Nagano Yoshikuni, Urano Shigenari and others were blocked and unable to advance.

Although the Takeda Army and the Uesugi Army had several small-scale joint battles during this time, Takeda Katsuyori still did not find out the details of the Uesugi Army, and he did not know how much grain and grass and how many troops the Uesugi Army still had. The three generals of Honjo Fancho, Soga Yushige, and Omori Minori took advantage of the time when the retainers of the Minowa Nagano family launched a campaign to contain Nagano Yedori, and led an army of 3,000 to rush to Pheasant Village Castle to join the Asada.

On 1 September, the court sent Saito Toshizo and 500 horseback samurai to raid the small lotus pack of the Takeda army. After a fierce battle, Saito Toshizo led his army to defeat the Kita-Shinano Pioneers who were escorting the small lotus caravan, and killed more than 100 people. Subsequently, Saito Toshimimi was unable to bring back these grains and grasses, so he had to have them all burned to prevent the Takeda army from regaining them.

Although the Uesugi army only burned part of the Takeda army's grain and grass, the psychological blow to the generals of the Takeda family was huge. Anayama Nobujun, Itagaki Nobuyasu and other generals all believed that since the Uesugi army was able to raid their own small lotus caravan, then they must have mastered their own rear routes and food routes, and once their own battle was lost, it was very likely that the retreat route would be cut off by the Uesugi army. After that, Anayama Nobuyum, Itagaki Nobuyasu and other generals suggested that Takeda Katsuyori quickly withdraw his troops and hand over the task of rescuing Nagano Yetsu to Urano Shigenari and others.

Nagasaka Mitsuken did not agree with the generals' opinions, and directly retorted: "Before the young lord led the army into Nishiueno, you had already captured nearly half of Azuma-gun, and the owner of the pavilion was leading his army north at this time to attack Echigo in one fell swoop, and the Uesugi army would inevitably return to the division to save itself, so do you need to worry about the siege of Gokan, Takada and Minowa Castle?!" If we stagnate here, we will lose the morale of our army and consume our family's financial resources, and it will be impossible to successfully defeat the Uesugi army! ”

Takeda Katsuyori knew that Nagasaka Mitsuken was at odds with the generals, and in order to let the generals support him and obey orders, he had to say to Nagasaka Mitsuken: "This is not something you can understand!" I came to the rescue of the generals of Nishiueno, who are now in a very critical situation, and the city is about to be destroyed! If I forsake them, I will be treacherous for fear of the enemy, and I will not do that! ”

Nagasaka Mitsuken saw that Takeda Katsuyori returned to Kai alone in a fit of anger after he arrived at Komoro Castle, and after he arrived at Komoro Castle, he went to Takeda Shingen, and directly said that the Takeda family would undoubtedly be defeated in Nishi-Ueno, and the Nishi-Ugano generals who fell to the Takeda family would soon become prisoners of the Uesugi army.

Late the next night, when Asada was sitting in the corridor by the courtyard of the Honmaru courtyard in Pheasant Township, thinking about how to defeat the three coalition forces, a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind him.

"Nagasaka Fishing Kansai Mitsuken has left Takeda Shiro Katsuyori, and Takeda Shiro Katsuyori has not adopted Nagasaka Fishing Kansai's plan." Chiyoyo Mochizuki said softly.

"I didn't expect Shiro Takeda to be so faceless to his posterior, if he really adopted Nagasaka's strategy of fishing and fasting, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sit here so leisurely at this time and enjoy the night view while thinking about how to defeat the enemy." Chao Ding's heart instantly fell to the ground.

"If the concubine assassinated you in Aizu before the concubine, I'm afraid the Takeda family would have already dominated the Eastern Kingdom at this time." As the clouds that obscured the moon drifted away, the moonlight shone on Chiyo Mochizuki.

"That's right, if you had succeeded then, you wouldn't be talking behind me now, and having a whole corpse has been blessed by Amaterasu." Chao Ding said after smiling.

"Obviously, there are my wives and Zhuquewei, why do you want to let the concubine personally explore the Takeda army's main formation?" Chiyo Mochizuki was a little puzzled.

"It's just to determine the reality of the Takeda Army. If Shiro Takeda Katsuyori adopts Nagasaka's strategy of fishing and leisure, it will be good to deal with it in time. Asadachi was originally worried that Takeda Katsuyori was trying to confuse himself, so he refused to adopt Nagasaka Mitsuken's strategy.

"So this Nagasaka fishing idle is not a person to be underestimated, do you need to get rid of it?" Chiyo Mochizuki asked, picking up a piece of kinpeito that was on a plate beside Asada.

"Not for the time being, as long as the Takeda family is defeated in this battle, its strength will be greatly weakened, and it will not do much in the future." The court decided to annihilate the 6,000 troops sent by the Takeda family in this battle, and then send more than 10,000 troops from Chen Sagami into Izu and Suruga, so that no matter how capable Takeda Shingen was, it was impossible to take care of the north and south roads.

With the raid on the grain route and the unstable morale of the army, Takeda Katsuyori wanted to quickly fight a decisive battle with the Uesugi army, and the decisive battle was chosen on the plain south of Takaru Castle, the home of the Takaru Nagano family. When Chaoding learned the news, he immediately led an army of 6,000 to Komiya Mountain, and ordered Kohata Jingding to quickly lead 500 troops north to join him.

In the early morning of September 3, Takeda Katsuyori transferred most of the coalition forces surrounding Omoriji Temple in order to have enough troops in the decisive battle, leaving only more than 100 people to contain the defenders in Omori Temple. Asadaki then climbed to the top of Komiya Mountain to observe the changes in the situation of the Takeda Army. The retainers after the asada's death were a little worried when they saw more and more Takeda troops, hoping that the asadaki would transfer the three generals Akiyama, Asahina, and Takai to participate in the war.

Chao Ding didn't care, and said directly to the generals: "Since the Takeda family fought the Kai country, they have never encountered a particularly powerful enemy. Since the Takeda Army is ready to take the initiative to fight a decisive battle with our army at this time, it already shows that they can't afford to delay, and the grain and grass are already insufficient. Their formation outside the city shows that they despise our army and do not take our army seriously. If our army does not move first, the courage of the enemy will gradually weaken, and the soldiers will be hungry after a long formation, and they will retreat without a fight. At that time, if you take advantage of the victory and pursue, you will definitely be able to defeat the Takeda army! At this time, I prophesy to you that after noon, the enemy will be defeated! ”

After hearing the court's words, the retainers were all skeptical and looked at each other. They believed that it was impossible to decide the victory in a day against the three coalition forces of more than 10,000 with a force of 6,500 troops, and besides, the Takeda army had the retainers of the Urano family and the Takaru Nagano family who were familiar with the local geographical environment.

Since the two sides were evenly matched, Takeda Katsuyori did not dare to launch a general attack easily, so he first sent Akiyama Mitsutsugi (Takeda Katsuyori was close to him, and Takeda Nobukatsu was later in battle) to lead a hundred horseback samurai to a distance of half a mile from Komiya Mountain, and issued a provocation to the Uesugi army: "Do you dare to send hundreds of warriors to fight to the death?!" After seeing this, Asadaki immediately sent Saito Toshizo to lead two hundred ashigaru armed with spears down the mountain to meet the battle, but the two armies advanced and retreated, regardless of victory or defeat, so they had to collect their troops and return.

Finally, when the decisive battle came, Takeda Katsuyori, Nagano Yoshikoku, Urano Shigenari, and Anayama Nobujun waited for two hours to set up their respective formations. Not only were the ashigaru members of the coalition hungry and thirsty and sat down, but even some of the samurai stood lazily and lackedly, without energy.

Seeing this, he immediately ordered Saito Rizo to lead three hundred horseback warriors through the three coalition forces and then to the south, and told him: "If the enemy army does not move, you will lead the army back; If the enemy moves, then lead them to the west. ”

After a while, when Saito Rizo led his army past the front of the three coalition forces, the coalition forces were in chaos. Chao Ding immediately yelled: "The time has come!" The attack begins! Asada himself led 400 horseback warriors as the vanguard, and the army followed closely and rushed straight into the enemy's formation.

Since Takeda Katsuyori was holding a military meeting in Tagaryu Castle at this time, the coalition generals were completely unaware that the Uesugi army had launched an attack. As the Uesugi army rushed towards the coalition army formation like a tiger from the mountain, the Urano army and the Takaru Nagano army were placed at the forefront, unable to resist the Uesugi army, which instantly lost its armor and ran towards Takaru Castle.

Takeda Katsuyori then received the news that the Uesugi army had begun to attack, and immediately ordered the Takeda army to block the Uesugi army. However, due to the fact that the Urano Army and the Takaru Nagano Army were blocked in the middle, they could not pass. In a short period of time, the mounted samurai of the Uesugi army had already come to Tagaryu Castle, and Takeda Katsuyori and others were all as pale as dirt, so they could only flee from Tarumu Castle in a hurry and prepare to go to Azuma-gun.

Toshimitsu Anazawa led the charge into battle, rushing directly out of the rear of the coalition forces, and then returning to the enemy formation. With Toshimitsu Anazawa going in and out several times, there were a lot of arrows on his body, but his courage was still undiminished.

With the efforts of the various units of the Uesugi Army and the escape of Takeda Katsuyori and others from the battlefield, in just one hour, the three coalition forces all fled in all directions. The Uesugi army pursued ten miles, and at least 4,000 enemy troops were killed.
