When Narumasa returned to Honmaru's residence, he smiled when he saw Nobusada Kohata carrying a jar of wine waiting at the door.

"Stingy like you, usually a dime, but I didn't expect to take the initiative to invite me to drink today."

-- When things go wrong, there must be demons.

Although Nobusada Kohata is the governor of the Kohata family and the leader of Kohata Akabi, and his territory in Ueno is not small, but as Narumasa said, he is very stingy and does not pull out a hair, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an iron rooster.

There is always only one truth!

Nobusada Kohata has poured all his money on Kohata Akabi, and his income is not low, but his life is very simple, just because he is a lord who shares weal and woe with his retainers.

Kohata Akabei crowned the country of Ueno, and it was not groundless.

Hearing Cheng Zheng's teasing, Xinzhen was not angry, he stretched out his rough palm and patted the wine jar, making a dull sound:

"To borrow a phrase from you, it's called 'people are in good spirits at happy events', there is news from Ueno's hometown, saying that my concubine has just given birth to a daughter, so I came to you to celebrate."

-- I have something to tell you.

Although Xinzhen is also very bold, she will never come to Chengzheng for a drink late at night, not to mention that the concubine giving birth to a daughter is not a particularly important thing for a city lord like him. Xinzhen came to Chengzheng, most likely there was something else to talk about.

What's more, Cheng Zheng's illness was not hidden from him, since the last time he fainted before the battle, Cheng Zheng had never drunk a drop of alcohol, of course Xinzhen knew.

"Don't stand stupidly, come in and sit."

Sasa Narumasa, Kohata Nobutada, Ii Naotora and Bo Fengqian held a small celebration banquet in Narumasa's room, ostensibly to celebrate Nobusada's daughter, but in fact they exchanged information every other sentence.

"You should understand my position."

Shin-jeong suddenly whispered.

"Hmmm......"

Sasa Naruma nodded, although Nobusada Kohata is close to Narumasa, his attributes are still a wealthy family in Ueno.

"This afternoon, a friend from the south sent me a letter."

“…… Is it from Musashi? ”

"That's right."

Sasa Naruma nodded, of course he understood what Shin-jung was talking about.

No matter from which point of view, Nobutsada Kohata, who is a wealthy member of the Ueno clan, should be the target of the Takeda clan and the Hojo clan. Therefore, it is normal for Hojo Shiyasu to send someone to contact Nobusada.

"So...... What do you mean? Do you want to do that friend a hand? ”

Sasa asked with a grin, and Shin-jung also responded with a big grin.

"How could I be willing to go far, you and I are people who have fought side by side, come and come, drink and drink!"

Sasa Naruma exhaled and put his mind at ease.

Nobusada Kohata didn't lie...... He bet his treasure on Sasa Seimasa and chose the Nagao family. But even if he chooses Sasa Narimasa, there is no need to shake out Hojo Shiyasu.

--Just because Nobusada Kohata is still a passionate teenager, he is far from becoming a qualified governor.

Because a qualified governor will never easily betray a potential partner.

Nobusada Kohata was still young, and Nobutasha believed that Sasa Narumasa was more than Hojo Shiyasu, so he took wine and found Narumasa in the middle of the night to celebrate the birth of his daughter.

Seimasa did not disappoint him, and he knew the meaning of the strings, which made Kohata Nobusada feel very happy.

About an hour later, the wine brought by Nobuzhen was also drunk, of course, mainly by Bo Fengqian, a young wolf who was not afraid of drinking sake.

After Nobu-jung and Bo Fengqian left, Sasa Naruma immediately yawned, hugged one of Ii Naoto's arms and lay down on the tatami mat, and fell asleep soundly.

He didn't even have time to put a layer of the quilt on.

Zhihu carefully covered Cheng Zheng with a blanket, and after putting away the tableware, he lay down opposite Cheng Zheng.

Chengzheng has been weak and sleepy these days, but Naohu is not.

She's thinking about the other person......

Where did Fruitheart go?

Pinching his fingers, it has been half a month since Guoxin left them.

Where did Fruitheart go? Shinano? Why isn't there any news about her?

What did she do? It's a ...... Is it death?

Jing Yi Naohu also fell asleep with countless doubts, and when he woke up the next morning, he found that Cheng Zheng was gone!

She got up in a panic and asked, only to know that Zuo Zuo Chengzheng had already gone to Sister Jinghu.

She was a little surprised by Chengzheng's early riser, but when she thought that she had something serious to talk about with Sister Jinghu, Zhihu still went to have breakfast in a proper manner, and then went to the courtyard to practice gunnery meticulously.

From time to time, her high-pitched voice floated from the courtyard to the top floor of the castle tower, where Sasa Narumasa and Sister Jinghu stood face to face, and between them was a sand table of Guan Yashu.

"Then, I'll come as the Hojo side, please weigh it carefully, and don't fall into it easily."

Sasa Narimasa took small flags in five colors, "red, yellow, white, black, and blue" from the edge of the sand table, and planted them next to several castles in Minami Musashi and Sagami Province.

Gu Sesiyi, this five-color flag represents the "five-color preparation" of the Hojo family!

And the most famous of the five colors is the "Yellow Preparation" flag with the yellow "Hachiman Daibodhisattva" flag as the horse seal - Hojo Tsunari!

Shogun Narumasa represented Hojo Tsunari's yellow bi, as well as black and white bi, were inserted around Kawagoe Castle, and Akabi and Aobi were inserted between Edo Castle and Kokufu Taijo Castle.

Kawagoe Castle is the only way to enter Minami Musashi and invade Sagami, and the Ueno and Shimono coalition forces led by Sister Jinghu also take this road to the south, so Chengzheng set up heavy defenses in Kawagoe Castle in order to block the frontal attack of the dragon of Echigo.

Some people say that fighting a war is about logistics.

When it comes to logistics, the Hojo Army, which is fighting at home, is of course more advantageous than the Long Tail Army, which is fighting away. As long as the Hojo Army can hold on...... to win.

Sister Jinghu obviously realized this, and she stared at the line from Heyue City to Guofutai with a pair of big eyes.

Early this morning, she had just had breakfast, and when she was about to recite the scriptures, Sazuo Chengzheng came to her.

Cheng Zheng not only came to her for the first time, but also asked people to bring up a sand table, saying that they were going to do a military chess exercise.

So there is the current game.

For Cheng Zheng, this is the birth and experiment of a new military theory, and for Sister Jinghu...... This deduction is very likely to be the key to locking the Hojo family.

"Baga Chengzheng...... I didn't expect your military law to be quite remarkable. ”

Sister Jinghu smiled and planted the flags of the Nagao Army, Ueno, and Shimono Coalition Forces around Kawagoe Castle, and the flags of Satomi, Satake, Ota, and Oda in the area of Kokufutai.

"The coalition forces have the advantage of strength, so I plan to send troops on two fronts, attacking Kawagoe Castle and Kokufu Taijo Castle at the same time, and either way of breaking through will force the Hojo Army to retreat...... But that's not the end of it. ”

Sister Jinghu stretched out her index finger and thumb to pinch a model of a war horse from the wooden box, hanging in the air, but it didn't fall:

"In addition to the huge number of coalition forces, I also have the best cavalry in the world...... The horseback team moves so fast that you can't predict it. How to deal with it? ”

She stared at Cheng Zheng with bad intentions, seeing that the posture was about to defeat Cheng Zheng with the ace horse team.

Sasa Naruma also smiled:

"The lord seems to have forgotten...... And the Triple Alliance. ”

"The Triple Alliance? Harunobu Takeda, that coward won't come! ”

As soon as Takeda was mentioned, Sister Jinghu snorted coldly to express her contempt for Takeda Harunobu.

"Of course Harunobu Takeda won't come...... But not all people are as selfish as him, and among the Three Kingdoms, there are still people who focus on the overall situation. ”

With that, Sasa Narumasa planted the flag of the Imagawa family in Odawara Castle.

With the Imagawa army in Odawara, as well as the flag book personally led by Hojo Shiyasu, I don't know where this elite force will go?

The Trojan horse model in Sister Jinghu's hand had not yet fallen, and Cheng Zheng seemed to have thought about something, and began to move the only two remaining troops in his hand.

The two of them have worked hard for this big battle, I don't know how it will end?

After several days of continuous deduction, the two of them finally finalized the strategy for using troops this time, and finally held a military meeting in Ninja City.

The outcome of this military meeting will be the key to determining the future of the Kanto region.
