If the Uesugi and Shiba families want to conquer the Kanto Plain, they must defeat the Takeda family's arrogance.
Grab. Grab. Shinano Kingdom is connected in all directions and is an important road in the world. Not to mention other directions, if we only talk about Echigo going to the Kanto Plain, we must first eliminate the threat from Hokushin and Toshin.
Shinano country is divided into four parts, and the Takeda family has occupied Nanxin, Zhongxin, Dongshin, and half of Northern Shinobu.
Follow Takeda Harunobu's strategy.
After taking Hokushin, she can attack Joetsu to the north. Or send troops from Toshin to invade Nishi Ueno.
Echigo Province is a long strip of land, with Upper Etsuki connected to Hokushin, and Central Vietnam connected to Nishi Ueno.
Once Takeda Harunobu achieves his goal, either Uesugi Teruhu's basic base will be threatened, and Joetsu will be threatened.
Either the Nishi Ueno area, the central key point that can cut the Echigo country in two at any time, is threatened by the Takeda family.
Not to mention that Nishi Ueno Nagano is an ally of Uesugi Teruatora, and this place will be the bridgehead and logistics channel for entering the Kanto Plain in the future.
Whether it was for the purpose of protecting himself or maintaining supply lines in and out of the Kanto Plain, Uesugi Terutora could not allow Takeda Harunobu to swallow up Shinano Country.
Moreover, the Hojo family, which is expanding wantonly in the Kanto Plain, is an ally of the Takeda family.
Therefore, if you want to march into the Kanto Plain, you must first defeat the Takeda family's desire to move northward, so that Takeda Harunobu will not dare to think about moving northward again.
Otherwise, Echigo's rear will be unstable, and the Kanto hegemony will be nothing more than a dream, a castle in the air.
Regarding sending troops to Hokushin after the autumn harvest, Teruhora Uesugi and Yoshihiro Shiba had already reached a consensus.
The Kanto strategy cannot be delayed. The Hojo family is devouring and digesting the Kanto Plain. The longer the delay, the greater the power of the Hojo family.
This time, Uesugi Teruhu will attack with all his strength to defeat the Takeda family's ambitions.
However, Shiba Yoshigan had his own little idea and ordered Toruo Castle to come to the Imperial Palace for a meeting with Shima Shoto.
———
Inside the Imperial Palace.
Pu Sheng's village came out to guide Dao Shengmeng, and Dao Shengmeng asked casually.
"Long time no see, is Yamanaka Hime here?"
Kamouso clan bowed slightly and answered.
"Naoejin's last batch of goods this year has arrived, and the list of supplies for the whole year will be shown to His Highness.
This matter is of great importance, so His Highness sent Lord Yamanaka to go to Naoetsu personally to get the bill of goods from Ishida Hime. "
Shima Sheng nodded fiercely.
The Hokuriku Dou trade route developed rapidly, far exceeding what was previously imagined.
Echigo's integration was faster than expected, and it also took advantage of the huge increase in business profits.
Not only did 30% of the goods in Sakai Port go through the Hokuriku Road, but trading towns in various places also began to actively use this trade route to circulate, resulting in a sharp increase in the profits of the cooperative companies.
Setting up a card to pay taxes is not a matter of digging in the fields, it does not harm the agricultural capital, and you can get cheaper goods and higher purchase prices.
The reduced land tax allowed the local martial arts family to return home, and the increased income and abundant supplies made the military family's life more prosperous. Only fools would be dissatisfied.
After receiving a lot of benefits, the Echigo samurai family immediately changed their attitude and became the vanguard of the Uesugi and Shiba families to jointly attack Kanto.
The fighting spirit is fierce and the morale is high.
Shima Shengmeng himself also felt that his body was heating up, his back was straight, and his steps were a little faster.
The value of Ji Ji warrior lies in the battlefield, and the reward for serving the public is to lick the blood with the tip of the sword and exchange the enemy's head for his own future.
After she joined the Sibo family, she was generously rewarded, but she felt that she had made little contribution and was not worthy of occupying high-ranking officials and generous salaries.
Now that the Guandong strategy has been launched, it is the place where heroes and heroines come into play. How can we not be excited?
The two came to Yiyin's inner room, and the sliding door was opened by Hu Song. The half-grown girl bowed to the two Lord Ji Warriors, and then stepped aside.
Yiyin was reading documents in front of the case, looked up and saw the two concubines coming in, and said with a smile.
"Is Shimahime here?
Hamohime, please take Husong out for a while. I have something to discuss with Shimahime. "
Yiyin also does not hide the secrets of confidential discussions. These are all members of the Sibo family.
Pu Shengshixiang cheered, bowed and led Husong out.
Yiyin looked at Dao Shengmeng, waved gently to her, and asked her to sit next to him.
Dao Shengmeng was a little cautious. This was the master's inner chamber, and he was alone.
Although he knew that his master was holy and immaculate, he only cared about the Spo family fortune. But after all, there are differences between men and women, and it is inevitable to have wild imaginations.
Yiyin didn't know that his General Yili was also a hot-blooded woman, full of desires.
He didn't think much and directly told her why he called her.
"Shimahime, this time I want to lead the Odai people to fight in the Hokishin Kawanakajima battle. You and the Echigo Shiba people will be stationed at Tobi Castle."
嘘戅 Let's play W aNbaR. Net 昘戅. "What?"
Shima Shengmeng couldn't help shouting and looked at his master in disbelief.
Yiyin also knew that his request was difficult for others, but he had his own demands. This move was a bit of a villain's state of mind, and it was difficult to express it to the outside world, so I had to ask Dao Shengmeng to come and take the blame.
The alliance between the Uesugi and Shiba families aimed at the Kanto Plain, and Hokushin was not the target of Yoshihiro Shiba.
The battle of Kawanakajima must be fought, and it must be fought beautifully.
Only by killing Takeda Harunobu so that he does not dare to look north can we protect Echigo's weak points and prevent things from going wrong during the Kanto strategy.
The problem is that the Takeda family is not a soft persimmon, and this battle will inevitably result in mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
Echigo's national power was strong, the Hime samurai was brave, and Terutora Uesugi was determined to establish the Kanto hegemony, so he would not hesitate to sacrifice his life.
However, the Sibo family has a weak foundation, and most of the Ji warriors that can be mobilized from the family have already arrived. More than 190 Sibo warriors are the limit that the Sibo leader can support in recent times.
The journey was long, and apart from the commercial profits brought by the Hokuriku Road trade route, he could no longer spare any effort from nearby areas to support the Kanto strategy.
If too many Hime warriors are lost on Kawanakajima, what will happen to the Kanto strategy later?
When the Wu family occupies territory, it does not mean that the local Wu family surrenders.
If there is no Wu family in your own family, stay in the local area and check and balance the local Wu family. The local rule will only be eclipsed by the local martial arts, and winning the battle will be in vain.
The Miyoshi family dominates the Shikoku and Nishikon countries. They use the three samurai families of Awa, Sanuki, and Awaji as their foundation, and put them in the conquered territories, and then they can control the local grassroots.
Even so, local samurai families in conquered territories such as Iyo, Tosa, Settsu, and Tamba still caused troubles from time to time.
If Shiba Yoshigan wants to gain some dominance in the Kanto strategy, he must use his remaining Shiba Zhong power carefully.
Let them become the starting point for controlling the conquered territories and the local grassroots.
He encouraged the Doshinzo and the Echigo Shibazu to move their wives to Kanto, and he was also preparing them to take root in Kanto and become the basic base of the place he controlled.
Therefore, in the battle of Kawanakajima, he did not want to invest in the Echigo Shiba people. He wanted to only bring more than 40 girls from the Doshin clan and the Odai people recruited from the Yangbei clan to participate.
Sibo Yiyin has no interest in Beixin's land.
If a large number of Sibo people are dispatched, how will the reward be solved? Use the territory near Tomei Castle? It may not be enough.
He led his troops and always used a lot of benefits to kill people, in order to stabilize the loyalty of Ji Ji and offset his gender disadvantage.
If there is not enough harvest to buy off these Sibo people, it will only alienate the soldiers and make the foundation of his rule unstable.
But Yoshihiro Shiba couldn't bring up this matter on his own. The two Uesugi and Shiba's conquered Kanto, which was a cooperative relationship.
Now, Kawanakajima is destined to be a bloody battle. Yoshigan Shiba does not want to send more troops to die. What will the Echigo samurai family think?
If these words were spoken by Yoshiro Shiba, it would damage his prestige and make the new Uesugi retainers doubt the sincerity of the Shiba family's cooperation.
On the other hand, Echigo Shiba came all the way from Konki to Kanto. Will they be emotional if their master does not give them a chance to be rewarded?
If the greedy warriors are not allowed to receive rewards from the public service, the lord's position will not be secure.
Therefore, Yiyin could only talk to Shima Shengmu in secret, so that the loyal General Yili would take the blame.
