Chapter 129: Before and After the Autumn Harvest
The autumn harvest of the 11th year of astronomy began a few days earlier than in previous years, on September 23. The various castles www.biquge.info of the Tsugawa family began to mobilize the people to harvest the rice, and the subsequent taxation began.
And the southern family and the Anton family, which have been fighting for almost half a year, also have a rare truce. A truce began on both fronts of the Southern House and the Anton Family.
In the Bine area, at first, the Andong family and the Asari family effectively resisted the attack of the southern family on the Bine area. The troops of the southern family were blocked in the area of Yaliyuan, and the 2,000 troops of the southern Qingzheng were difficult to continue to march for a while.
Then, the southern family reversed Mito Nobuto, the general of the Asari family, and finally repelled the Ando Asari coalition army under the cooperation of the inside and outside, and took the bridgehead to attack the Binai region, Hanaoka Castle of the Asari family.
Just as the southern Haruhi government was continuing to attack the Binai area in one go, it was suddenly reported from the rear that the Nanoka family had captured the Okaijo Castle of the Ando family and eliminated the Tansha Sentoku family, and was expanding aggressively in the Tsugaru area. Because Ishikawa Takanobu of the southern family led troops to quell the rebellion in Iwate County and Antler County, and the Oura family seemed to have reached some tacit agreement with the Nangang family, they actually did not move against the invasion of the Nangang family.
The Asa Yori Shi family and the Koyamauchi family alone could not resist the attack of the Langoka family at all, and the Black Rock City of the Asa Yorishi family was captured in an instant, and the troops of the Asa Yorishi and Koyamauchi families could only resist the attack of the Langoka family with difficulty in the Asakari Stone Castle, the base of the Asakari Shi family. As a result, Southern Harumasa had no choice but to send a force back to the Tsugaru area to support, and slowed down the attack speed in the Binai area.
This made Anton Shunji and Asari Seizing the opportunity, feeling that they had mobilized all their forces to deploy in the area of Odate Castle and Kawaguchi, and intercepted the southern family's continued southward movement.
On the other hand, the battle between the Nanbu family and the Minato family in the Antler County area is also in a bitter battle.
The local wealthy clans in the Antler County area, such as the Mao Manei family, the North family, and the Oyu family, joined the southern family, followed by the southern family, the general of the southern family, the nine city lords of the Nine Households, and the Stone Turtle City Lords, the Stone Turtle Castle Lords.
The southern clan maintained its rule by kinship and various clans, which was somewhat similar to that of the Mogami clan. It's just that the southern family can firmly control the various tribes and serve the main family. The tribes of the southern family are such as the four families in the southeast, the northwest, among which the outstanding ones are the north family as the head of the North Xinai, the south family is the head of the South Changyi, etc., and there are also one, two, four, and five households........ Nine households and several tribes (the southern family is actually a three-family family, and it is called the southern family after the various tribes.) )。 There are also various wealthy families such as the Mao Manai family and the Ishikawa family.
Relying on these clans, the southern clan controlled the entire northern region of Mutsu and became the overlord of the northern region of Mutsu.
And not all of the Antlers area are pro-southern forces, in addition, there are also security guards led by wealthy families such as the Dali family and the Hanawa family, who have been actively fighting against the southern family.
The Naganiu area of Antlers is one of the few areas in the Mutsu region with a high grain yield, and battles break out every year in Antlers.
This time, the other front of the southern family's attack on Dewa was in the area of Antlers.
The southern family of the nine clan lord Kunohe Shinnaka, the lord of Ishikame Castle Ishigami Nobubo, the lord of Momanai Castle, the lord of Momanai Hidefan, the lord of Oyu Castle Naoyuki, the lord of the Turbidity Kawakan Hokushin Ai and other generals with their own troops a total of 1,800 people, with Anton Yaoji, Minezawa Castle Lord Kasei Yasunei, Hanawa Castle Lord Hanawa himself, Dazato Castle Lord Dazato Kinari and others led 1,600 people.
At the beginning, Hanawa Castle bore the brunt of the capture, and Hanawa himself was outnumbered and could only lead the army to retreat to Dali Castle. Then, because Anton Yaoji was far away from Antler County, Anton Yaoji's reinforcements did not arrive for a long time. So the castle was also captured shortly after.
At this time, Jiacheng Kangqing arrived from Minezawa City with reinforcements, which was able to stabilize the situation. Hanawa and others held on to Changniucheng to wait for reinforcements.
One night, Hanawa himself suddenly led the army to launch a night attack, and the southern family was defeated under the surprise attack, and was defeated in the area of Hualun City. Hanawa and Dazato and others took the opportunity to recapture Dali Castle.
At this time, Anton Yaoji's reinforcements finally arrived, and after a fierce battle, Hualun City was finally recaptured by An Dongfang. In desperation, Nobunaka Kunohe and the others continued to retreat to Momanai Castle, and then sent someone to ask for help from Ishikawa Takanobu in Iwate Prefecture.
After that, the two sides continued to fight several times in the Antlers area, and although the southern Iekita Nobuai and Ishikawa Takanobu were all famous generals, but with the same number of troops on both sides, they still fought a draw with Anton Yaoji and Hanawa Shinyuki and others.
The two sides were in a stalemate in the Bine area and the Antler area, and there was no victory or defeat, and the autumn harvest was about to begin, so the two sides negotiated a truce.
The invasion of the Nanoka clan in the Tsugaru area also began to retreat after reinforcements from the southern clan arrived. But before that, the Nanoka family had seized the opportunity to capture most of the Tsugaru region. At present, only the southern part of the Tsugaru region, such as Oura Castle of the Oura family, Asamori Ishishiro of the Asaki family, Watoku Castle of the Oyamauchi family, Rui Castle of the Rui family, and Ishikawa Castle of Ishikawa Takanobu, are still in the southern family's sphere of influence, while the central and northern parts of the Tsugaru region have fallen under the command of the Nangang family. The Hiyama Anto family is about to be driven out of the Tsugaru area, leaving only Fukushima Castle as the estuary.
In the Tsugawa family, in Tsugawa Castle, the Tsugawa family's economic director Ogasawara Nobu found Tsugawa Soji.
"Lord!" Ogasawara said excitedly, "The expansion of Tsugawa Castle has been completed, and the rest of the work is currently being completed. ”
"Hmm" Soji Tsugawa nodded and said, "Good work." ”
Hearing Soharu Tsukawa's words, Ogasawara Shintoki almost burst into tears. When Soji Tsukawa lost all the expansion of Tsugawa Castle to Ogasawara Shin, he basically didn't ask about it. Everything was prepared by Ogasawara Nobutoki, whether it was the preparation of materials or the mobilization of labor. Soji Tsugawa only gave a rough plan, and let the rest go, a picture of the shopkeeper.
Ogasawara said with a smile, "Thanks to the trust of the lord, Your Majesty has finally lived up to expectations and completed the expansion of Tsugawa Castle." Please also ask the lord to go with his ministers to check it, and if there is anything that needs to be changed, it is better to make changes in time. ”
"Hmm." Soji Tsugawa nodded, and said affirmatively, "I'm still very relieved that you are doing things, Tsugawa Castle is the foundation of the family, and His Royal Highness is also looking forward to what it can expand." ”
Although Soharu Tsugawa occasionally went back to Honmaru to check out, but due to the slow progress of construction and some other reasons, I could only see a rough idea, and now Ogasawara Nobutoki has completed the expansion of Tsugawa Castle, and it is just right to see what kind of posture Tsugawa Castle is now. (To be continued.) )
