Wise Kogoro smiled, he knew that these three guys wanted to use this thing to show off their combat exploits, how could he not understand their true thoughts? But now, when it was indeed a time to be happy, he didn't say much.

[By the way, Mr. Wise, do you have any next moves, are we going to pursue the enemy?] 】

[What's this...... There are no further developments yet, so please rest and I'll go and discuss with the general. 】

At the mention of this, Akechi Kogoro felt a little headache -- now that the Shibata Shigeya had been killed, Date Masamune had withdrawn from Echigo. After regaining Echigo's Uesugi Keitora, a fiery heart began to slowly cool down, and he hoped that it would be better to stop fighting the Date army.

It's not that Uesugi Jinghu and individuals are unambitious, in fact, this gentleman also has his own set of [Little Ninety-Nine].

If the Date army is pursued, the victory rate is undoubtedly very high, and Date Masamune can be completely defeated. But in this way, Date Masamune, who was in trouble, was bound to want to surrender himself.

That's not a good thing.

Once he surrendered, Date Masamune would definitely withdraw from Aizu and Sendo as Oda Nobunaga had previously requested.

In this way, nine times out of ten, he will be transferred to Aizu and Xiandao, that is to say, Echigo, this piece of the country that has been worked hard by ancestors for generations will be lost.

Of course, Uesugi Keitora didn't want to lose Echigo, not only because of personal emotional factors, but also because he had been here for many years. The power is solid and deep, once transferred to Aizu. He has a lot of manpower and material resources to cultivate new forces. It's worth the cost.

Everyone has their own ideas and plans, and Oda Nobunaga wants to use this war to weaken the power of Date Masamune and Uesugi Keigora at the same time, and Uesugi Keigora knows this.

After talking to the three generals, Wise Kogoro turned and left.

As soon as he returned to the camp of the Oda army, Wise Kogoro saw his lieutenant general, Daisuke Seo, winking at him and smiling:

[Congratulations! 】

Wise Kogoro doesn't know why. Rhetorical question:

[Seo-sama, where does the joy come from? 】

Daisuke Seo's real name is called [Hideyuki Seo], the Seo family was originally the genealogy of the Oda line in Kiyoshu, Oda Nobunaga attacked Oda Nobuntomo, and after occupying Kiyoshu, the Seo family was changed to Oda Nobunaga to serve.

In itself, although the Seo clan also has a history, it has never produced any great talents, and Daisuke Hideyuki in the Seo Palace. Yu Wen and Wu are not outstanding, it can be said that he is a military general with mediocre qualifications, and there is no other reason why he can become the deputy of Wise Kogoro. Completely because of his relationship with the old Owari clan, Oda Nobunaga decided to give his fellow villagers a chance to be promoted from the emotional aspect.

Daisuke Seo heard Akekogoro ask. The smile on his dark cheeks dissipated and became serious, and he said in a deep voice:

[Adults strategize. Defeated the wicked man who committed many crimes, Date Masamune. Of course, it's a happy event. 】

Wise Kogoro saw Taisuke Seo's serious expression, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

[Hehe, it's okay if others don't know, Lord Seo, you've always been by my side, don't you know, I'm just nominally a military advisor, and I didn't participate in the whole battle. 】

[Eh, it doesn't matter, the Uesugi family in the waning mountains suddenly rose up, defeated the Date family with a counterattack, and suddenly became so strong, what would everyone think? ] Of course, they will think that there is a new change in this, and this change is you, a wise man. 】

Wise Kogoro heard a black line, indeed, the Uesugi army suddenly became so strong in a short period of time, plus he was also involved in it, when future generations study history, they will definitely associate themselves with the victory of this battle, and there may be another argument at that time:

[The Battle of Wuhai was actually won under the command of Wise Kogoro, and I am not convinced! ] 】

Actually, I didn't do anything.

Speaking of which, the dare is still fake.

Wise Kogoro didn't dwell on this issue any longer, and changed the subject and asked:

[Daisuke Seo, I heard that in this battle, we captured thousands of enemies, is it true? 】

Daisuke Seo replied:

[The specific matter is not clear, so I will go to the lord to inquire about the news? ] 】

Wise Kogoro waved his hand and said:

[No need, I'll go by myself, you can continue to busy yourself.] 】

[Hi Yi! 】

Daisuke Seo bowed in response, smiled happily on his face, and left humming an unknown ditty. He looked excited, as if he had won the battle.

Wise Kogoro watched Daisuke Seo leave, turned around and walked towards the place where the captives were being held.

As soon as he walked to the place where the prisoners were held, he saw his own flag captain, Makuichi Yamazaki, walking out.

Yamazaki Makuichi is the son of Yamazaki Nagatoku, and he became a wise captain of the flag at a young age, but strictly speaking, he is not considered his own retainer.

Wise Kogoro asked:

[Makuichiro, what's going on?] 】

With a smile on his face, Honjo said:

[The small one lived up to the high expectations of the lord and finally stabilized the nearly 1,000 captives of the captives. However, the last general felt that the captives had just surrendered, and if they were immediately taken for their own use, there was likely to be a mutiny, so Shun suggested that the lord observe more so that the captives could completely submit to the lord. 】

He always calls Akechi Kogoro [lord], but in reality, the two do not have a direct master-servant relationship.

Fortunately, Wise Kogoro didn't care, this person was going to enter his account sooner or later.

Wise Kogoro smiled:

[Well, I understand. This time the prisoners were surrendered, thanks to you who can speak well, and you were able to surrender nearly a thousand prisoners so smoothly. 】

Yamazaki Makuichi said happily:

[This is also the preparation of the lord in advance, so that the small one will be so smooth. 】

Wise Kogoro smiled:

[Well, since you have taken in nearly a thousand captives, these captives are temporarily under your management. 】

[Hi Yi! The small ones must manage the captives well, and strive to make them a strong force under the command of the lord as soon as possible.

This time, in the [Echigo Rebellion], a considerable number of Echigo people took refuge in Date Masamune, and after Date Masamune's defeat, these people were so panicked that they did not dare to follow Date Masamune, nor did they dare to meet Uesugi Keitor, and finally, they came to the camp of the Oda army, begging for the protection of the wise Kogoro.

Wise Kogoro ordered Yamazaki Makuchi to completely disarm these people, and then divide them into separate guards.

Yamazaki Makuichi is a person, unlike his father, the army is slightly mediocre, at most he stays in the rear as a bodyguard, and it is unrealistic to expect him to lead the party like his father, but this person's eloquence is excellent, and Bimoto Masanobu is more eloquent, so Wise Kogoro pondered whether to let this gentleman be a diplomatic retainer in the future.

In addition, Wise Kogoro also had his own plans for these surrenderers -- if conditions permitted, he would bring them back to Kyoto and take them under his own tent, and after a [Maori Expedition], the wise family suffered great losses and suffered a lot of losses among officers and soldiers, and if the strong Echigo samurai could be thrown into the battlefield, it would be a force to be reckoned with.

After lunch, Akechi Kogoro headed for Takekai, which was originally Date Masamune's main camp and was now the main stronghold of the Uesugi army.

In this array, the princes are divided into left and right.

Uesugi Keitora stands first on the left, and Akechi Kogoro stands first on the right.

Kawada Nagajin looked around left and right, his face was gloomy, his eyes were full of anger, although this place had been occupied by the Uesugi army, it seemed that there was still a remnant of Date Masamune's breath, that hateful little ghost, still haunted to this day!

He stood up and said:

[Lord, since the start of the war in Wuhai, swords and soldiers have been everywhere, wolf smoke is billowing, and there are corpses everywhere; Now although the battle has ended, but there are a lot of corpses left on the battlefield, it is the turn of summer and autumn, the weather is hot, if you don't deal with it, it is easy to make a plague, please send someone to clean up the battlefield quickly! 】

Uesugi Jinghu came out, stood in the center of the main formation, faced everyone, and said loudly:

[Kawada-sama's words are very reasonable, this matter should be sooner rather than later, and we must not slack off. Among the kings, who is willing to lead the troops to clean up the battlefield and clean up the corpses. Although these are delicate tasks, they are complicated and need to be treated with caution. 】

Uesugi Jinghu talked about it for a long time, but he didn't say it, and this matter was not on the stage.

Uesugi Keitora glanced at everyone, but no one stood up.

Only Honjo hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Lord, I am determined to go. 】

Uesugi Keitora said with a smile: [Okay, since that's the case, let's ask Yamato Mamoru to immediately lead the troops to clean up the battlefield. 】

[Hi Yi! 】

Honjo Shigeraga replied and turned to leave.

What Honjo is thinking about in his heart is how to loot money from private people, this guy is obviously almost in the position of a big man, but he still has a love for these small money.

Wise Kogoro sighed faintly when he saw Honjo leaving.

Shigenaga Honjo was the main force in the crusade against Date Masamune, and he was one of the few Uesugi generals who approved of his idea and pursued Date Masamune.

Now Honjo Fanchang leads the troops to clean up the battlefield, and it will not be completed without a day or two.

I have one less powerful ally.

Wise Kogoro looked around at the generals in this formation, slowly stood up and said:

[Date Masamune led the troops to the winter, fleeing in embarrassment, it seems that he wants to return to Aizu, now is a great opportunity to take advantage of the victory and pursue, please Echigo Mamoru to lead the troops to pursue Date Masamune, and completely defeat it, a shame on the day! ] 】

After hearing this, Uesugi Keihu's face suddenly became gloomy.

Chasing Date Masamune?

What are you kidding, although Date Masamune was defeated by himself in Wuhai, there are countless elite soldiers under his command, and the closer to Aizu, the closer to Date Masamune's lair, the stronger Date Masamune's strength becomes.

Now leading the troops to pursue Date Masamune, it is definitely a battle that is not very certain. (To be continued.) )
