Chapter 11 Ambitious Strategy

"Actually, if you want to defeat the Takeda family, you just need to take a few steps." Chaoding still played "Shinno", and the only way to target the Takeda family is to take a long-term view and take it slowly.

"How?" The girl seemed to want to hear the story and moved closer to Chaoding's side.

"The first step is to repair and improve all the roads in Echigo Province." Chaoding's sentence did not get Jing Hu's approval.

"Build roads? If you build water conservancy, even farmers will help spontaneously, is it really useful to build roads? Jinghu didn't understand what Chao Ding meant, she thought that building roads was a complete waste of money and labor.

"When marching beside the banks of the river, there was no difficulty in providing for them, although they did not use any other method than the provision of the houseowner. Because they were based on material and spiritual superiority, premised on unceasing undoubted victories, at least, without hesitation and caution in any case, their movement on the road to victory was mostly an uninterrupted march. If the environment is not very favorable, the local population is not dense, or there are more workers than peasants, the land is barren, or the army has been stationed several times, then the results of obtaining supplies will naturally be worse......" Chao Ding directly quoted the words of the master to persuade Jinghu. Building roads is a double-edged sword, if you go fast, the enemy will go fast......

"It's convenient for supplies and marching." Jinghu seemed to understand something, and he could be regarded as understanding what Chao Ding meant, "So what's next?" ”

"The second step is to build a castle north of Kawanaka Island." After opening the map he was carrying, Asadachi pointed to Toyono north of Kawanakajima.

"Why is it north of Kawanaka Island and not south of Kawanaka Island?" Although Jinghu is powerful in war, it does not mean that she is outstanding in wisdom and strategy.

"What we thought of, the Takeda family must have thought of it, so that it will be open strategically." After Chao Ding finished speaking, he took out his folding fan inlaid with bamboo and bird patterns and began to play.

"Anything else?" After thinking about it, Jing Hu felt that what Chao Ding said made sense.

"If there is anything else, it will not be too late to talk about it after the main hall has implemented the two things mentioned below." Chaoding deliberately sold Guanzi at this time.

"......" Jinghu looked at Chaoding and found that scheming has nothing to do with age.

"Tiger Chiyo, this young repair doctor's concubine looks very good, and she is very suitable to be the son-in-law of the Nagao family." At this time, a woman who looked exactly the same as Jinghu walked in from outside the door, and if you want to say that the special place is that the European pie is different.

"The son-in-law of the Nagao family? At the age of fifteen, Hojo is not flat, how can he start a family. Chao Ding changed the famous saying.

"What a good Hojo Mihei is home." The girl couldn't help but applaud Chaoding.

"Sister, don't make trouble when I'm talking to the repairman." Jinghu said deliberately angrily.

"Then marry me quickly, so that I won't cause you trouble." Ayahime smiled after speaking.

"......" Chao Ding felt as if he had been calculated, but it was not really calculated.

"That's right, so I have a good relationship with the Uesugi family, and it will be of great help to send troops to Kanto in the future. So, my sister, I'm going to trouble you to marry into the Ogiya Uesugi family. Jinghu seems to think that after marrying the Uesugi family in Ogiga, it will be more convenient to fight with the Hojo family.

"You don't seem to agree?" Chao Ding could only smile bitterly.

"I'll tell Lord Guan about this, please don't worry about repairing the doctor's hall." In an instant, Jinghu's dark side appeared in front of Chao Ding.

It seems that a family of tigers is really terrible! Chao must have understood why some of the retainers of the Longtail family always like to plot against and rebel. It's not easy to face a few big cats every day.

"Can I refuse?" Chao Ding said with a wry smile.

"Of course...... No! Ayahime stood directly in front of Chao Ding.

After that, when Chaoding returned to the longhouse, he felt that he couldn't run away.

"Lord, what's going on?" Namba Hayabusa was the first to notice Asada's sullen appearance.

"It's nothing, it's just that the marriage has been imposed...... "Chao Ding's face like a funeral examination doesn't look like nothing happened.

"My lord, in fact, the Nagao family is a descendant of the Taira clan, and the Uesugi family is from the Fujiwara clan. You see...... "Ota Zimasa also came to comfort the Asada."

"Since the Kakizaki Keijia has been defeated, there are more wild samurai and ronin wandering around waiting for the Nagao family's recruitment force, we can't waste this opportunity!" The speed at which Chao Ding recovered instantly surprised the two of them a lot.

"Yes. The lord means ...... "Namba Hayabusa, Hayato Sa, I feel that Asada's recruitment is going to be recruited again."

"My lord, should you be taking advantage of the fact that the Nagao family is providing food and grass for the family's army......" Ota didn't dare to think about it.

"Yes, Namba Hayabusa is in charge of recruiting people, and he wants samurai and horseback riding and bowing skills; Ota Shimasa was in charge of purchasing horses from Joshita Town. The family is to build a team of wandering horses. "The court is determined to continue to improve the combat effectiveness of his command when the iron cannon is not spreading.

Speaking of the Japanese horse belongs to the Mongolian horse breed, characterized by a short head and short legs, cold and strong tolerance, eating poor dry grass and snow can also be satisfied, but not suitable for heavy cavalry horses, because the impact and speed are not good, to be very suitable for light cavalry, archers.

After the two understood, they immediately went to prepare.

In just three days, Ota Zimasa procured fifty Echigo horses; However, Namba Tian Kenshige recruited seventy samurai who passed the standard.

"From now on, you will be the samurai of the Ogiya Uesugi family, and you must remember that once you enter the military strength of the Kawagoe Knights, there is no turning back." Asadachi personally lectured these recruits at Ninomaru.

"Yes!" In fact, many ronin samurai were very enthusiastic, and when they heard that it was the Ogiya Uesugi family who had broken the elite of the Hojo Army, they lined up even more. Namba Hayabusa had to be carefully chosen. He was kind enough to appease the unsuccessful samurai and told them that this time they were horseback warriors, and that they would be chosen the next time they recruited infantry.

"The next samurai who start to flow horses will become the lord's guard if they lose the election!" Hayabusa Namba stood under the stage and yelled at the recruits in front of him.

"Understood, please wait and see!" In fact, Jinghu didn't know about these movements made by Chaoding, she just watched how they trained in the castle tower. So no one was sent to stop it.

"Tiger Chiyo, just a few days ago, I finished talking about preparing to marry the Repair Doctor's Hall under the intermediary of Lord Guanling, and these are all right, and he got seventy samurai to consume Echigo's food." Ayahime also didn't expect that this dynasty would definitely take revenge on the two of them in an alternative way.

"That grain is not a problem, the problem is how the military strength of the Ogiya Uesugi family is formed, I have to take a closer look." Jing Hu looked at the samurai of the Ogiya Uesugi family below with great interest, who were trying their hand at archery with their bows and arrows.

"If you want to see it, go down and take a slow look, this is the territory of the Nagao family, and it's not his fan valley Uesugi family." Ayahime's words reminded Jing Hu, and then she ran down to watch.
