While the island castle of Dewa Zhishi Prefecture was still desperately defending the city, the Uesugi army had a great advantage in the Hokuriku Province.

Kakizaki Keiya of Masuyama Castle, Usami Jomitsu of Miyazaki Castle, Kakizaki Harukie of Takahara Castle (Hida Country), Okuma Asahide of Tateyamakan, Tsuchihi Masanobu, Lord of Horie Castle, Masashiro Dohi, Lord of Yumiya Castle, Kojima Jobo, Lord of Yuyama Castle, Mitsukuni Nagasawa, Lord of Koide Castle, and Tachito Kinhiro, Lord of Koide Castle, suppressed the power of the Shiina family. And annihilated the Ishiguro family in Mushu Castle, the disciples of Sokai Temple, and the monks and soldiers of Tenpyōji Temple. Ishiguro Naritana, the lord of Kibune Castle, and his brother Yubara Kuninobu were hunted by a warrior on their way to Kaga, and their heads were sent to Masuyama Castle on May 20.

The 1,000 troops of the Kuwata Nodakasho Division, who had previously been introduced into Echichu by Ishiguro Narita, were also defeated by Ishiguro Narita and Yubara Kuninobu and withdrew into Kaga Province.

The lord of Josei, Nobuyoshi Saito, who was caught between the Kakizaki Haruya family and the Kakizaki Kei family, was also labeled as an 'attempted rebellion', and he was surrounded by the 3,000 troops of the Kakizaki Haruya and his sister Koji Yoritsuna on the Missile Country side, and the 2,000 troops led by the Kakizaki Yasuya (younger brother of the Kakizaki Kei family), Kakizaki Toshiya (younger brother of the Kakizaki Kei family), and Ueno Kubei under the command of the Kakizaki Keike family.

The attack and defense of Chengsheng Castle began on May 10 and lasted only ten days. More than 2,000 defenders of the city were all killed. The guards Saito Nobuyoshi and Kikuchi Takeho were all taken.

Usami Dingman also dispatched from Ijo to attack. He successively used tactics, sneak attacks, assassinations and other means to seize the branch cities of the Asahi Pavilion, the Irizenkan, and the Unazuki Pavilion under the jurisdiction of the Shiina family.

Shiina Keinao (Nagao Keinao) of Uozu Castle gathered many former retainers of Jibo and Shiina to defend the castle in Uozu Castle, and his adoptive father, Yasuyin Shiina, and Retainers such as Takekuma Motoren were in Matsukura Castle not far away. Most of the territories of the Shiina family have been voluntarily abandoned, and only two castles remain, Uozu Castle and Matsukura Castle.

Tenjinyama Castle, four miles from Uozu Castle and Matsukura Castle, Usami Joshimitsu also led an army of 3,000 troops into the city on May 21.

Tenjin Mountain Castle was originally the territory of Okuma Ashide, but with the sudden rise of the Shiina family, Okuma Ashide's last resort was to take his retainers and standing ashigaru to Tateyamakan to defend it.

Shiina Keinao of Uozu Castle did have some ability, and he called in Itaya Shohiro, Jimbo Echichu Masamu, Takizaburo Saemon, Terasaki Minbu Saemon, Saito Obito, Tsuchiya Heiji Zuoemon, Yusa Shinanomori and other 4,000 reinforcements, not to mention, but also colluded with Miyazaki Einami, Eba Heitaio and others to attack the Tang people who were previously subordinate to the Uesugi family. Jimbo Masatake and Eba Mikawa led 2,000 people into Matsukura Castle to assist in the defense.

Combined with the previous 900 defenders in Uozu Castle and 1,000 defenders in Matsukura Castle, the total strength of the Shiina Army at this moment has reached nearly 9,000.

After Kakizaki Keijia and Kakizaki Yuke (Kakizaki Keizaki's son) led an army of 2,000 from Masuyama Castle, they joined forces with Kakizaki Taijia, Kakizaki Haruya, and Sister Koji Yoritsuna, for a total of 6,000 troops. On the 30th of May, they entered the Katagawa Pavilion together with the 2,000 troops of the Great Bear Ashide, the Great Bear Tsunemitsu and his sons. The three of them, including the lord of Horie Castle, Masanobu Tohi, the lord of Gongzhuang Castle, and the lord of Koide Castle, Tang Ren, were placed in Horie Castle with 2,000 troops. In this way, Shiina was sandwiched from both sides. There were a total of 11,000 Uesugi troops, including Usami Jomitsu of Tenjin Mountain Castle, Kakizaki Keiya of Kawaikawakan, and Tsuchihi Masashi of Horie Castle.

On this day, the Kakizaki Keike family deployed the Uesugi army deployed in the Kawaikawakan, Horie Castle and Tenjinyama Castle, and first defeated Miyazaki Emanami, Eba Heitaio and others who attacked Koide Castle, and took more than 200 people, and dozens of people from Miyazaki Eba and Eba Heitai's entire clan were beheaded. Then, before sunset, Uozu Castle is surrounded. The Tang people, Qinguang and Tufei Zhengfan, led an army of 1,000 to monitor Matsukura Castle in case Matsukura Castle rescued Uozu Castle.

"Koshiro, this kid didn't learn anything else from Yasuyin Shiina, but he learned everything about rebellion." After defeating Emanami Miyazaki and others, the Kakizaki Keike held a military meeting when they returned to the Kawaikawakan. As the guardian of Yue China, he is still qualified to command the Uesugi retainers of Yue Zhong.

"Whether it is the previous generation of Harujing Gong or the reign of Jing Gong, the Shiina family has repeatedly betrayed the Nagao family, which is already commonplace." Daxiong Chaoxiu felt that he was accustomed to it, and his father once joined the Yuezhong expeditionary army with a long tail to go to Yuezhong.

"However, although Yujin City only has a double curved wheel, as long as there are enough defenders in the city, we still can't easily capture it." Yuke Kakizaki felt that it was impossible to conquer Uozu Castle in a short period of time.

And that's exactly what happened. Uozu Castle is a flat castle located near Toyama Bay Bay. Both Uozu Castle Honmaru and Ninomaru are surrounded by a double moat Mizubori and are bordered by the sea to the west, Kadogawa to the south, Kamogawa to the north, and a swamp to the east. The castle sits in the middle, overlooking the streets of Hokuriku, and is a vital place.

Originally, the Shiina family was based on Matsukura Castle, a mountain castle located in the upper reaches of the Kadogawa River, but since the Nagao family pacified Echichu, the political and economic center of the area has gradually moved to Uozu Castle, which has more convenient transportation. And Uozu Castle is also configured in Fuchu, the Nagao family, a gate of the Nagao family, Nagao Koshiro Jingzhi.

However, Uozu Castle is convenient, but it is not as easy to defend and difficult to attack as Matsukura Castle, which was built on a steep mountain, and can be used for a long time. Although it is said that when the snow melts, the snow water will turn into a clear spring and gush out, and the water in Uozu Castle is abundant, but the food rations are really limited.

"No matter how easy a castle is to defend and difficult to attack, there will always be weaknesses, and Miya-sama once said, 'People will always have weaknesses.'" Daxiong Chaoxiu added. This gave everyone in the big room a little hope.

"I am afraid that the assault will only increase the casualties, and the situation in Echigo may not allow us to suffer heavy losses. Most of the defenders of Okushinano's village last week have died for the Uesugi family, and we still have the task of guarding against the Takeda family. "Kakizaki Keijia has never felt as much pressure as it does now. He really misses the time when he followed Qianxin everywhere to fight, and he only needed to lead troops to assault, and he didn't need to think twice before making a decision like at this moment.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the envoy of Usami Suruga Mamoru is already waiting for Ninomaru." Just when Kakizaki Keijia and the others were still struggling, the envoy sent by Usami Dingman had already arrived.

"Mamoru Suruga is really right, I won't be able to make a decision, this old guy ······" Kakizaki Keijia laughed after speaking. He remembered the time when he and Usami Dingman cooperated against Nagao and Nagao Harukei, which was really interesting.

Soon, the envoy sent by Usami Dingman walked into the Ohiroma.

"My father was afraid that Izumi Mamoru would not be able to make a decision in time, so he sent a special dispatch to come down." The Uesugi retainers in the audience all looked at the young samurai who walked in.

"The Usami clan can indeed get Zhongxing under the operation of Suruga Mamoru, your brother is in the Aizu Izushi Town Palace, and you are now in battle with Lingzun. He must also be a military advisor in the future. "Kakizaki Keijia looked at Usami Katsuyuki and remembered his former self, the Kakizaki family was a little-known small land in the Echigo-Joetsu region before he became the governor, and it was only through his own hard work that he obtained the territory of Kakizaki Castle and Saruge Castle.

"I don't dare to be ashamed, my father suggested that after surrounding Uozu Castle and Matsukura Castle, send troops to attack the Jinshan branch city south of Matsukura Castle, so as to make the people of the country who fought side by side with the Shiina family frightened." After Usami finished speaking, Kakizaki Keijia kept nodding.

"Then give it a try, you are responsible for capturing Matsukura Jinshan City, and the Tai family and the Nine Soldiers will assist the You family." Kakizaki Keike issued the first order first.

"Yes!"

Subsequently, Kakizaki Yujia and his uncle Kakizaki Yasuya and the family's important minister Ueno Kubei led an army of 1,000 into battle. And half of this thousand troops are mounted samurai. In other words, this team is the elite under the command of Kakizaki Jingjia, and he doesn't want to drag on the war in Vietnam for a long time.

That night, Kakizaki Yuke led his army through the outside of Matsukura Castle and suddenly attacked the unsuspecting Matsukura Kanayama Castle. The defender Shiina family retainer Takekuma Motoren was captured by Ueno Kubei, and the defenders were defeated by 200 of them. Early the next morning, Yasuyin Shiina and Shiina Shigeyin saw the banner of the turnip (Kakizaki family pattern) on the castle head.

"Father, it seems that I have to surrender in order to keep my family's name!" Shiina Shigeyin now feels that he really shouldn't have listened to Shiina Jingzhi's words to rebel, but now it's good, not to mention being besieged, and even Jinshan is gone.

Although Uozu Castle and Matsukura Castle are separated by a Kadogawa River, the situation of Shiina Keinao and Shiina Yasuyin is different, one is from Echichu Shiina, and the other is from Echigo Fuchu Nagao. If Shiina Keinao can't hold on, at most he will surrender, and he won't be easily ordered to seppuku. And Shiina Yasuyin is different, his father was killed for disobeying the long tail for the scenery, although he repeatedly raised troops, but that time was not suppressed? If Asadaki and Kenshin are not ready to forgive themselves this time, then the Echichu Shiki family will really have to cut off their family name.

At the same time that Yasuyin Shiina was still cranky, Kakizaki Keijia handed over the task of besieging the city to Okuma Chaohide, and he led an army of 5,000 plus 1,000 of Matsukura Kanayama together with Tohi Masahiro and others to start storming Matsukura Castle.

As Shiina retainer Tsuneko Koma and his younger brother Tsuneji Koma were rebelled by Usami, while the Uesugi army stormed Matsukura Castle, they opened the Ninomaru gate of Matsukura Castle and led the Uesugi army to capture Nishinomaru. In just one day, Matsukura Castle's Shiina Army was left with only Honmaru to defend.

And Shiina Keinao in Uozu Castle did not know that Matsukura Kanayama had fallen and that Matsukura Castle was under onslaught. He led his army out of Uozu Castle and fought the 'Battle of Kadokawa' against the 5,000 Uesugi army led by Okuma Asahide on the banks of Kadogawa.

Under the strong efforts of the Uesugi army, the Vietnamese Chinese Itaya Masahiro, Jimbo Masashi, Takizaburo Saemon, Terasaki Minbu Saemon, Saito Obito, Tsuchiya Heiji Zuoemon, and Yusa Shinanomori were successively captured, and the Shiina army retreated into Uozu Castle after losing 2,000.

The defeat of Shiina Keinao caused the morale of the defenders in the city to drop instantly, and deserters continued to appear.

However, Yasuyin Shiina's hopes of keeping the Echichu Shiina family were dashed. After the Kakizaki Keike launched the final onslaught, most of the Honmaru fell. His son, Shiina Shigeyin, was also killed in the battle of Honmaru. He was seppuku in his room, and his head was beheaded by the Uesugi army who came after him.

The famous family of Echichu Shii, who had served as the guardian of the Viet China dynasty, was declared dead on May 31. And Shiina Keinao is still holding on in Uozu Castle. His demise was only a matter of time.
