In the third year of Yonglu, June 20th. At the same time that Ashikaga Yoshiteru issued an armistice order to the two daimyos, Uesugi and Takeda, dozens of people from the Lang Party of the Furukawa Ashikaga clan, including Ashikaga Fujimasa (the fourth generation of the Furukawa Gongfang Ashikaga Haruhi clan), Ashikaga Terumi clan (Ashikaga Harushi clan), and Ashikaga Iekuni (Ashikaga Harushi clan), went to Horikoshi, Izu Province, and re-established the Horikoshi Gongfang (Horikoshi Imperial Palace), and recognized Ashikaga Fujimasa as the "Ashikaga Renede" and "Ashikaga Goone Gate" of the shogun's family. Not only that, but Ashikaga Yoshiteru also ordered the Takeda family, the Oda family, the Tamura family, the Soma family, the Oyama family (the family governor is Koyama Asayayuki), the Mogami family (the family governor is Mogami Kenkei, the son of Uesugi Kenmasa), the Utsunomiya family (the family governor is Utsunomiya Kento, the son of Uesugi Kenmasa), the Iwaki family (the family governor is Iwaki Kenshige, the son of Uesugi Kenmasa), the Onodera family, the Tozawa family, the Ando family, and the Nanbu family are under the Horikoshi Gongkata banner.

However, with the exception of a few daimyo such as the Takeda family, the Oda family, and the Nanbu family, who expressed their side on the side of the Horikoshi Princess, the rest of the Daimyo of the Eastern Kingdom all stood on the side of the Imagawa clan without exception. Kenshin, on the other hand, remained neutral and did not help each other, but only let his brothers Mogami Kenkyo, Utsunomiya Kento and Iwaki Kenshige follow the court.

Originally, Ashikaga Yoshiteru wanted to appoint Ashikaga Fujimasa as the Duke of Kamakura to replace the Imagawa clan who had been established by the Daimyo of the Asadachi and the Eastern Kingdoms. However, Ashikaga Fujimasa was unable to enter the Hachimangu Palace in Kamakura Tsuruoka under the power of the Imperial Government, so he could only stay in Horikoshi in Izu Province, resulting in a situation where the Kanto Principality in Kamakura and the Kanto Principality in Horikoshi stood side by side.

The court was very dissatisfied with Ashikaga Yoshiteru's approach, and immediately sent his retainers to Kyoto to secretly contact Matsunaga Hide, Miyoshi Sanren and other powerful retainers of the Miyoshi family, preparing to attack the imperial palace in Kyoto at the right time to drive Ashikaga Yoshiki out of Kyoto again.

Takeda Shingen now intends to take advantage of the time to reach a truce with the Uesugi family to seize the time to recuperate in the territory. Previously, the Saku invasion and the Higashi-Kokai invasion launched by Oyama Asayaki and Uesugi Keemitsu and other Uesugi generals led to the destruction of many of the clans' lords and retainers in the Takeda family's domain, and the territories of many of his countrymen lords and retainers were greatly damaged.

Fortunately for Takeda Shingen, the Uesugi army withdrew from the Takeda family's territory and returned to Ueno and Musashi after reaching an armistice. He did not swallow most of Saku-gun, which had already been captured.

Although Asadachi agreed to an armistice with the Takeda family and the Odawara Ise family, he did not completely intend to let go of the Odawara Ise family, the "murderers of other countries". On the surface, the general of Asadaki withdrew from Ashigashita County, but he demolished the branch castle soldiers around Odawara Castle. Not only that, but Asadachi also sent Okabe Motonobu, Asahina Taichao, Asahina Shinogi and other generals to be responsible for the long-term attack on Odawara Iseryo. Okabe Motonobu, Asahina Taichao, Asahina Shinji, and others will organize troops to go to the castle town of Odawara Castle for more than 20 days a month. And the Isegawara clan can only dare to be angry but dare not speak, after all, the strength of the two families is placed there, and the Odawara Ise family has no strength to compete with the Uesugi family without the intervention of the Takeda family.

On June 30, the Asadachi and Kenshin officially issued a "ban on the cane" to the temples of the eight countries of Kanto, Okuwa, and the five Hokuriku provinces (Echigo, Sado, Echichu, Noto, Kaga, Wakasa, and Echizen, which were not yet under the control of the Uesugi family). Because the monks in the monasteries carried weapons regardless of class, and even used armor, horseback archery, and built fortifications in the monasteries, these monks were not particularly different from the daimyo, national lords, and wealthy families. It is true that the monks of the monasteries are divided into classes, and the lower class is always described as brave and ruthless evil monks, but the upper class of monks will also fight in groups.

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, monasteries were generally involved in nationwide warfare as a large-scale armed group, and monasteries also had full-time monks who specialized in combat, that is, monk soldiers. Both the North and the South scrambled to gain the help of the monastic armed forces in order to gain an advantage. Monks were rewarded for their military exploits as well as samurai.

In addition, in addition to this well-known practice, there is also a spell that is inseparable from the monks. Inflicting curses on enemies is of course part of what monks often do to their enemies. For the Japanese at that time, war was not only fought in the world that people could see, but also in the world of the "underworld" that could not be seen behind them. This requires these spell experts to appear as "Underworld Warriors". At that time, it was believed that curses could work, and it was not uncommon for political opponents to engage in "curse warfare". Both the Emperor, the Yuan, the Shogunate, and Tokumune all had their own "guardian monks", and it can be said that there has always been an "invisible war" between the guardian monks and the guardian monks. The Generalissimo Method and the Six-Character Sutra Method are such spells used to curse others. Another example is the famous Emperor Go-Daigo who personally went into battle to curse the Kamakura shogunate.

Why are these monks not afraid to kill? Naturally, the monks have a way of justifying themselves. For example, the idea of a curse is not to curse a murderer, but to have compassion to save the cursed. He also said that when cursing, we should have a heart of "compassion and benefit." Curses are not a sin, but a relief for the wicked, and so on. When a "war" breaks out between monasteries, it is even more common to slander each other as "enemies", "evil laws", "demon armies", "demons", "great thieves", "enemies of Buddha", and so on. For example, Yoshino Kinminesanji Temple also slanders Koyasan as an enemy of the Buddha. When they launched a series of attacks on a hostile Sangha, there were even many monks who thought that "although I know that the Dharma does not allow killing, it is okay to sacrifice myself in order to destroy the evil Dharma and save the Dharma."

Therefore, in order to prevent the recurrence of religious overtones such as Yiyi Yi Yi and Fa Hua Yi Yu, and also to prevent hidden dangers for the stability of the territory, they can only issue such an order.

At the same time that Ashikaga Yoshiteru set up the Horikoshi Princess, the Imperial Court issued a decree to approve the request of the Asadaku and Kenshin, and split the original Mutsu Province into Mutsu Province, Rikuzen Province, Lu Chugoku, Iwaki Province, and Iwashiro Province, and the general name of the five countries was still Oshu. The newly established official positions of the imperial court are Lu Qianshou, Lu Zhong Shou, Iwadai Shou, and Iwaki Shou, and the official ranks are all from the rank of five.

In the end, Minami Harumasa spent 1,000 Kaneiraku money to successfully assume the position of Mutsu Omamoru from the top five, but it was only limited to the attack and rule of Tsugaru-gun, Ninohe-gun, Sannohe-gun, and Kita-gun.

At the same time, Konoe Maehisa came to Kawagoe Castle as an envoy of the Imperial Court and first informed the court that the Imperial Court had granted the post of Mutsu Okumori from the top five to the enemy of the Uesugi clan as a last resort at the request of Ashikaga Yoshiteru and Minami Harumasa, hoping that he would understand. In the past, the court asked Konoe to ask the imperial court to appoint the official positions of the national guards or kokusuke in various parts of the eastern country through the daimyo and retainers under his command, but the imperial court approved all of them. Among them, Takami Tamura, the lord of Sanchun Castle, was appointed as the sixth Shimochi Okusuke, the lord of Honsakura Castle, Nambata Hiroyoshi was appointed as the fifth Shimoru Mamoru, the lord of Otahara Makoto Castle Usami was appointed as the fifth Shimono Mamoru from the fifth place, Suda Mitsukin, the lord of Iinuma Castle, was appointed as the sixth Hasuke, the lord of Koyama Castle was appointed as the fifth Shimokai Mamoru from the fifth, Tokita Castle Lord Anazawa Toshimitsu was appointed as the fifth Shimosuruga Mamoru from the fifth place, Kano Hideharu, the lord of Higashigajin Castle was appointed as the sixth Kamikai Kaisuke, and the lord of Kotaka Castle, Soma Yoshiyin was appointed from the fifth Shimoiwajo Mamoru .

And Chao Ding didn't care about this, because what he really cared about at the moment was to carry out a strategy against the countrymen and lords in the country of Jiafei, intending to treat them in the way of others.

After Katsunuma Nobumoto (Nobumitsu, Takeda Nobutomo's son, Takeda Shingen's younger brother) was discovered and killed by Takeda Shingen, Asada's success once again in mediating the Takeda family's important retainers, Imai Nobuya (a branch of the Kai Imai family, Katsunuma Imai clan, son of Imai Nobuo, and a member of the Takeda family), who was located on the border between Kai and Musashi, and wanted to use him as the Uesugi family's internal response and lead so that the Uesugi army could once again invade the hinterland of Kai Province.

However, the road is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high. After learning the news that he was connected to the Uesugi family, Imai Nobuyo's two uncles, Imai Torao and Imai Nobubo, they immediately reported to Takeda Shingen in order to prevent the Katsunuma Imai family from severing their family name and bloodline.

On July 5, Takeda Shingen did not intend to implicate too many retainers and lords, so he had no choice but to lure Imai Nobuya to the Kugasakikan and kill him in the name of 'having important matters to discuss'. After all, the Kai Imai clan is a relative of the Takeda family and a major minister of the genealogy, and its influence is huge in Kai, so Takeda Shingen had no choice but to kill himself and his family members like Katsunuma Nobumoto.

However, Takeda Shingen also began to be suspicious and distrustful of his kinship, because he did not know who would be the next to be omitted by the Uesugi family. The retainers of the powerful family of Higashikai were omitted by the Uesugi family one after another, which did not bode well for the Takeda family.
