On May 1, 1556, the Echigo army marched from Kasuga Yamajo Castle with a total of more than 4,000 men, including 1,000 mounted samurai, 1,000 standing ashigaru, 2,000 peasant soldiers, and the Echigo early attack group.

The general general is Nagao Teruto, Sister Jinghu and below, Sekihaku Konoe Maehisa, Kanto Governor Uesugi Kenmasa, Echigo famous general Yamamoto Temple Takanaga, Honjo Shiranaga, Honjo Minoru, Yasuda Nagahide, Sebe Hidecho and others are all in the battle, and Sasa Narumasa's retainers Suzuki Bunto, Saito Toshizo, and Ha Kazekan are also in the army.

Echigo's most prestigious wise man Usami Seimitsu, the most courageous military general Kakizaki Keijia, and the famous general Naoe Keixuna did not come out, which is somewhat confusing, but Sister Jinghu summoned Naoe Keixuna and Kakizaki Keizai before the battle, and held a banquet for the two, stating that it was precisely because she left the two of them in the country that she could rest assured.

Sister Jinghu praised the Kakizaki Jingjia at the banquet as "invincible in the seven counties of Echigo", and put on a high hat for the Kakizaki Jingjia.

On 6 May, the Echigo army arrived at the castle of Stables.

Sister Jinghu, in the name of the Kanto governor Uesugi Kenmasa, summoned all the wealthy clans in Ueno.

On the same day, the Hojo army besieged Karasawa Mountain Castle!

On the evening of May 8, Sister Jinghu held a banquet in Stable Bridge City.

Most of the wealthy families in the entire Ueno territory came, mainly concentrated in Nishi-Ueno, mainly in Nishi-Ueno's "fifteen guns...... The governor of the Hou Xian family, Hou Xian Xinjun, was beheaded by Cheng Zheng, and the Hou Xian family was then divided by the rest of the Hao clan because of the internal connection with the Takeda family, so the Hao clan in Nishiueno could only form "fifteen guns".

The wealthy clan of Nishi-Ueno is headed by Nagano Yemasa, and there are not many wealthy clans in Higashi-Ueno, and none of them have the strength.

Sister Jinghu was not discouraged, in fact, she drank very happily.

Not only did the Kanto governor Uesugi Kenmasa attend the banquet, but Sekihaku and Konoe Maehisa of the imperial court also came, but these two people were only on the left and right of Sister Jinghu, and the one who stood on the main throne was still Echigo Guardian, Shinano Guardian, and Konoe Major General Nagao Teruto.

This puzzled the Ueno wealthy clan, after all, they were the former ministers of the Uesugi family, and seeing that the lord Uesugi Kenmasa was sitting at the head of the Nagao Teruto, they couldn't help but feel a little emotional, but they didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

"Ladies and gentlemen...... I have accepted His Royal Highness Changwei Huihu as a righteous daughter, and I will ...... in the future The name of the Uesugi family in my mountain will be passed down by His Royal Highness Huihu, so please continue to serve your public service wholeheartedly! ”

After three rounds of drinking, Uesugi Kenmasa immediately went straight to the point and took a dose of fierce material.

The hearts of the wealthy clans "chuckled", and they immediately understood the theme of this banquet, which was to force them to bow down and surrender to the future governor of the Uesugi family, Nagao Teruto.

As soon as they reacted, Sister Jinghu also picked up her wine glass:

"Please continue to serve your duties wholeheartedly!"

The Hao clans responded in twos and threes, of course they did not dare to disobey the dragon of Echigo, and at the same time...... They were also nervous.

Sister Jinghu said politely, but her treatment of the Echigo wealthy clan in the first two years can not be described as harsh, the Ueno wealthy clan is afraid that one will accidentally anger them, in the end, not only will the family governor retreat, but the territory change is inevitable, hard work for decades, once back to the pre-liberation ah.

What the...... You said that Nagao Jinghu has always been tolerant of the wealthy families in his territory, and the dead Hojo Takahiro will not agree.

But Sister Jinghu behaved very tolerant at this banquet, talking and laughing freely, and her appearance was outstanding, which made the wealthy gradually let go of their guards.

Sister Jinghu also showed the letter of Sano Toyotsuna, the lord of Tangzawa Mountain Castle in Shimono Country, asking for help, saying that she wanted to use the power of the wealthy clans in Ueno.

As soon as they were hesitating, the lord of Minowa Castle, Nagano Yoshimasa, took the lead in expressing his position, saying that he would vigorously support Sister Jinghu and obey Sister Jinghu's dispatch.

With a leader, the wealthy families also bowed their heads, but they still had doubts in their hearts.

A few days ago, they lent troops to Sasa Narimasa, but they were ambushed at the Bottle Shiri Pass, and lost almost half of the samurai on horseback, which has made him suffer a lot of pain until now. Sister Jinghu also wants to borrow soldiers, I don't know what kind of soldiers she borrowed...... Is it ashigaru, or is it a horse riding team?

The banquet ended in a warm and lively atmosphere and everyone's suspicions, Sekihaku Konoe went to rest for a long time, and the wealthy families also said goodbye, but Nagano Yemasa was left behind.

Realizing the sharp gaze of Sister Jinghu in the high position, Nagano felt empty.

After decades of mixing in the Kanto region, Yemasa has long had the ability to erupt Mt. Fuji without changing color, he smiled slightly, and nodded at Uesugi Kenmasa and Sister Jinghu.

"What does His Highness Nagao command?"

Before Sister Jinghu could respond, Xianzheng first asked a very serious question:

"I heard that the famous Northern Continent general Zuo Zuo Chengzheng died in battle, he is the favorite general of Jinghu Gong, as the host, have you ever found Chengzheng's body?"

Nagano was shocked, but he still said with an unchanged face:

"Lord Zozo's death in battle is also terrifying and inexplicable, speaking of which...... If it weren't for the power of Lord Sasa, I'm afraid that Nishi-Ueno would have been attacked by the Takeda family.

"Karma!"

Uesugi Kenmasa interrupted him impatiently.

"We all know this, what about the body of Sasa Chengzheng? Did you find it? ”

Nagano Yemasa changed his face to a guilty look and lowered his head:

"Shame...... Although his subordinates had already sent people to search the entire Ueno, they still hadn't found Sasa-sama's body. ”

Seeing Nagano Yezheng look like a turtle, Uesugi Kenmasa was also a little unhappy, when he was in Ueno, Yezheng was the general he relied on the most, who knew that he left Ueno for half a year, Nagano Yezheng did not make progress, but retreated.

"Ueno can't find it, won't you go to Shinano to find it!"

His words were originally unintentional, but when Nagano Yezheng and Sister Jinghu heard it, their eyes lit up, but the minds of these two people were very different.

"The Lord taught ...... The subordinates sent ninjas to Shinano to investigate! ”

"Forget it...... People can't be resurrected after death, but I still have a few unclear questions about Chengzheng being ambushed by the Takeda Army, and I want to ask Lord Yesasa. ”

Sister Jinghu waved her hand and changed the topic, although she knew that Nagano Yemasa was the biggest suspect in betraying Chengzheng, but before she could fully gain a foothold in Ueno, it was not appropriate for her to turn against Nagano Yemasa.

"When did Sasa Naimasa depart from Minowa Castle? How far is Minowa Castle from the Bottlejiri Pass? How far is Matsui Tajo from the Aberagiri Pass? ”

Sister Jinghu asked three questions in a row, which not only confused Uesugi Xianzheng, but even if she was shrewd, she couldn't figure out her intentions.

What makes people wonder is not the question itself, but why she asks it.

"I remember...... The soldiers under Naimasa were all samurai on horseback, and it was strange that they would be ambushed by the slow-moving Takeda Army. Master Ye Zheng should think about these three questions...... Don't be in a hurry to answer me. ”

Sister Jinghu's expression was indifferent, and her tone was calm, but it was these few words of understatement that had made Nagano Yezheng's body stiff and sweaty.

I think the long-tailed Jinghu has understood everything he has done?

Nagano was shocked, and he wanted to say no to the question, but reality forced him to think about the bad side constantly...... Is it still too underestimated Nagao Jinghu, I don't know what she will do with the Nagano family......

"That's right...... In two days, I went out to Tangze Mountain City, and I heard that Ye Sheng Gongzi was young and promising, and I wanted to take him with me, but I don't know what Lord Ye Zheng wanted? ”

Ye Zheng was stunned for a moment, and immediately knelt down:

"It is the glory of my father and son to follow His Highness."
