In the second year of Yonglu, June 30.

After many obstacles from the Takeda Army, Hiroto Biwajima finally crossed Iriyamaka and entered the Nishi-Ueno area, where he was temporarily stationed on Mt. Myogi to recuperate. At the same time, he also sent people to Kohata Castle to contact Kohata Keijun, hoping to enter Musashi through the channel. Kohata Keijun knew that this matter was important, and he couldn't make his own decisions. Immediately, he sent people to Heyue City to inform Chaoding.

The next day, the envoy quickly came to the city of Heyue. At this moment, the Asahi was holding a military meeting with the important ministers in Musashi.

"My lord, the messenger of the Kohata Book Aid Hall is here." Okabe Motomasa (Okabe Motonobu's second son) didn't notice that the Asadaku was holding a military council, so he ran directly into the Ohiroma.

"If it's not a military emergency, let him rest in Sannomaru." Chao Ding said impatiently.

"He said that the one in charge of the hall, the Biwajima Yashichiro Temple, had already led an army to be stationed on Mt. Myogi in Nishiueno, and planned to borrow the road from him to enter Musashi." Motomasa Okabe immediately told the envoy's intention.

"What?!" Many retainers turned their heads one after another.

"The palace is really planning to attack the lord with this move!" Kenji Namami, who didn't understand the situation, immediately stood up.

"Squire, sit down first, you haven't fully figured out why the Biwa Island Department entered Musashi alone." Toshimitsu Anazawa, who was sitting next to Kenji Namba, pulled Kenji Namba on his sleeve and said.

"Let the messenger in first." Chaoding didn't have the heart to continue the military discussion, so he just listened to what the envoy of the Kohata family had to say.

After a while, Motomasa Okabe brought Yoshizaki Kakubei, an important minister of the Kohata family, into Ohiroma.

"See the town government, the foreign minister is the old Yoshizaki Kakubei of the Kohata family." Yoshizaki Kakubei came in and introduced himself unhurriedly.

"Yes. I already know about the fact that the Biwa Island Department is stationed at Mt. Myogi and what Kohata Shosuke means. "Asadaki wants to know Kohata Keijun's opinion.

"My lord wants the town government to decide. Biwajima Yashichiro Hall said that he was going to go to Kawagoe Castle, and my lord did not dare to borrow the road with him without permission. Yoshizaki Kakubei replied immediately.

"In this way, I will send someone to contact Yashiro Biwajima, and the Kohata family will not have to borrow it." The court did not intend to let Hiroto Biwajima lead troops into Musashi, after all, it was an extraordinary time.

"Yes." Yoshizaki Kakubei instantly relaxed a lot after listening to Asada's words.

After Yoshizaki Kakubei left, Asadaki planned to increase his troops to Nishiueno. The rebellious Takada Shigerori, Gokan Nobujun, Takayama Yushige, Itada Mitsukei and others happened to divide the several castles that were assigned to the retainers of the Nishi-Ueno Dynasty. The rebellion of Tomizawa Iyomori and Kano Yunao plunged Azuma-gun into the flames of war. As for the countrymen of Higashi-Ueno who responded to Urano Shigenari and others, the strength of the countrymen was not as strong as that of the people of Nishi-Ueno, and all they could do was to block some roads and block the communication of Uesugi Castle.

On July 2, the 6,000 troops of the headquarters led by Ota Shimasa and the 7,000 troops of the Kamishu army entered Higashi-Ueno and merged with Ogasawara of Tatebayashi Castle for a long time. At the same time, the court ordered Kenji Namba to end the punishment of introspection in the castle, and restrained the 6,000 troops of Saito Toshizo, Yamada Naota, Hirosawa Tadanobu, Omori Fujiyori, Hosoya Shitoto, and others to send troops to Nishi-Ueno.

The asahi plan is to do both, but Nagano Yemasa is old after all, and the other party is a relative and son-in-law, so he can't do it. Therefore, the court can only pacify Ueno by himself.

However, since Kenshin led his army to retreat to the border area of Nishi-Ueno, Takeda Shingen immediately led an army of 15,000 to the north and merged with the 8,000 troops of Zhujiao Huding, Baba Nobubo and others. The Suruga and Enoe armies led by Takeda Nobuhiro were deployed in the two counties of Saku and Koo, and their purpose was to prevent Kenshin from further penetrating into the hinterland of the Takeda family and to prevent Kenshin from hindering the Takeda family's attack on Okushinano and even Echigo.

On July 3rd, the Miaogi Mountain Biwa Island Hiroshi Division was in the main formation.

"See Yashichiro Hall, and below is the envoy of the town government, Yamazaki Shoyanagisai." As soon as Yamazaki Hidesen saw Hiroto Biwajima, he deliberately accentuated his tone.

"Since you are the messenger of the town government, then there must be some news to tell me." Biwajima Hiroshi knew that at this moment, the court would definitely send people to get up, and it would definitely be nothing to do and go to the Three Treasures Palace.

"My lord town government wants to ask you to go to Heyue City with me to talk, as for the military situation, how about handing it over to the lord of Matsui Tian Castle in the north of Miaoyi Mountain?" Yamazaki Hidesen said straight to the point.

"Let me go with you alone?" Although Hiroshi Biwajima was a little unhappy, he had no way to refuse.

"Yes, the troops under your command are exhausted, and they have been seen by everyone along the way. The prince of the town also does not want to have a bad relationship with the palace of the ruler, and the retainers of the prince of the town who temporarily hand over your military power to the prince of the town will not be treated badly. Hidesen Yamazaki said further.

"This ······" Biwajima Hiroto was moved, after all, he was originally a messenger, and it didn't matter if he brought soldiers or not.

"Before I came, the lord had already mobilized more than 20,000 troops to gather in Ueno, what other concerns did Yashiro Hall have? The traitors are just a bunch of caged city defenders, and they can't have any impact on their family. Hidesen Yamazaki immediately hit the railroad while it was hot.

"Well, please. I will follow you to Kagoe Castle. After thinking about it, Hirohito Biwajima finally decided.

"Yes." Hidesen Yamazaki nodded in satisfaction.

Two days later, Hidesen Yamazaki and Hiroto Biwajima entered Kawagoe Castle.

"See the town government." Biwajima Hiroshi lowered his posture in an instant, and he didn't dare to look at Chaoding.

"Isn't it your envoy who came here?" Chao Ding said with a smile.

"His Royal Highness Miyayuki ordered that the Fujiwara town government can send troops to pacify Ueno, and then invade the two counties of Shinano Saku and Koo-prefecture." Biwajima Hiroto didn't beat around the bush and directly said Kenshin's order.

"It seems that the Imperial House is planning to atone for my sins?" Chao Ding couldn't help but smile after hearing this.

"It's better for the Zhenfu Palace to send troops in person as soon as possible, and there is a limit to the patience of the Imperial Palace." Biwajima Hiroshi looked at Asadaki and said.

"I have mobilized more than 20,000 troops in Ueno before and after, is it possible that the noble envoys don't even know about it?" Chao Dingdu was a little speechless, and he had obviously sent troops into Ueno with great fanfare, but Biwajima Hiroto didn't seem to know at all.

"This······ Foreign Minister······ Ignorance. Hiroto Biwajima said with an embarrassed expression.

"The main thing is that Changlu's side has not yet been pacified, if Changlu is more peaceful, I will lead an army of 40,000 to the west at this moment." Chaoding was also a little helpless, after all, the troops invested in Changlu were close to 30,000.

"The minister retired. Hoping that the town palace hall could lead the army to merge with the Goya Palace earlier, the Takeda army had already mobilized an army of nearly 40,000 in Kita-Shinano. If Echigo is not guaranteed, then the good days of the town hall will come to an end. "When Biwajima Hiroshi was leaving, he didn't forget to remind the court.

"Your envoy's reminder will be taken to heart." Chao Ding nodded.

After watching Biwajima Hiroshi gradually move away, Yamazaki Hidesen immediately walked in front of Asadaki and said, "My lord, there are only 6,000 troops in Saku County at the moment. If Okushinano or even Echigo were to be captured by the Takeda Army, the family would have to face a difficult and formidable enemy. ”

"Yes, once the Takeda family has Okushinano and Echigo, then the family will be attacked from both sides. The land of the eight countries of Kanto is fertile, and it is impossible for the Takeda family not to worry about it. Chao Ding said after sighing helplessly.

Just after Yumitsu Numata of Numata Castle finally waited for Kenshin to lead his army westward and regain the castle soldiers he had abandoned earlier, the rebellion in Higashi-Azuma County was also intensifying.

The lord of Nakayama Castle, Yasuru Nakayama, and the lord of Yokoo Hachiman Castle, Ichizaemon (Kaneko Taikiyo's sister-in-law), also began to rebel with Urano Shigenari and others under the guidance of Sone Kiyoki, a member of the Takeda family. Together with Iwashita Castle Lord Tomizawa Iyomori and Nao Kano Castle, Nao Kano Castle, the Lord of Nakajo Castle, they attacked all over Azuma Prefecture and drove out many of the acting officials sent by Asadachi and Kenshin.
