More than ten days later, the spring plowing in Echigo was gradually on track, and the leaders of various families gathered at the Joetsu Imperial Palace to hold a spring review in the government hall.
The various Kanto shōsho families headed by Shiba Yoshigan also participated in the meeting, and invited the important ministers of the Jimbo family, Kojima Shizhen, and Noto Hatakeyama family governor Yoshitsuna to attend.
During the review, Nakajo Toshi, Irobe Katsunaga, and Takemata Keizuna were officially included in the Uesugi genealogy.
In addition to the Honjo family, the Kachi family, the Shinbada family, the Igokōno family, and the Shimogoshi family whose names were cut off, the other seven families all joined Uesugi Teruhora's side banner Honjo family.
At this point, the Yangbeizhong Group, composed of fourteen families in Xiayue, no longer exists, at least officially.
Afterwards, Ina Chuji, the aide of Yoshihiro Saba, proposed a revised five-year water conservancy repair plan for the Echigo Plain, which was praised by all parties.
The plan estimates that it will cost 15,000 guan per year to manage the Echigo Plain water conservancy facilities, and the money will be allocated by the Second Public Tax Return Assessment Committee for implementation.
Among the Uesugi retainers group who had been beaten by Uesugi Teruhora in private, no one dared to come out to find displeasure and accepted this compromise plan that had been revised at Yoshigan's request.
Naoe Keizuna, who was sitting down, wiped the cold sweat from his head, and this test was finally over.
She made up her mind to serve Sibo Yiyin more carefully in the future. The retaliation methods of this imperial court are extremely powerful, and she may not be so lucky next time and will be able to successfully pass the test.
With the internal stability of Echigo, the problem of the Hokurikudo trade route came to the fore.
Of course, the Echigo side was not motivated by money, but was worried about the chaos in Noto in Echigo and wanted to help the local samurai family.
On behalf of the Shinto Nagasaki of Kojima Town, he implored the imperial office to come forward and contact the loyal and brave warriors to eliminate the Shiina family who had been colluding with the Vietchu clan to cause rebellion after losing their duties as guardians of Yuechu.
The Jimbo family is willing to give the Echu land east of the Kurobe River to loyal samurai who are willing to help Echu to restore peace.
Yoshigami said that His Highness Uesugi is unparalleled in loyalty and will definitely be willing to help. Terutora Uesugi said that I did not send troops for land, but in response to the shogunate's call to restore peace to Ezhong.
Afterwards, Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna came out, bursting into tears, denounced Kaga Ichikou clan for invading the Noto Peninsula, and asked the shogunate represented by the imperial office to make the decision for the local samurai family.
Yoshihiro was furious when he heard that Kagami was causing trouble. He said that he would write to the Noto warriors and call them to Vietnam and China to discuss the matter. Kaga, who had crossed the line in the resistance, had always been reluctant.
Teruhora Uesugi and Kojima Kozhin understood Shang's intention and expressed their respective opinions. I am willing to mobilize the army to the west after slaying the Shiina family who are traitors, and do my little bit to mediate the imperial office.
The Echigo samurai family present all benefited from the blessings of the shogunate and knew how to repay their kindness. Of course, we must maintain the public etiquette of the Wu family and never allow Yixiang Zong in Jiahe Yuezhong to cause chaos and ruin the world of the Wu family.
They came out one after another to ask for battle, willing to fight for the shogunate and the imperial office. The loyalty and bravery of the concubines was touching, and the scene was extremely lively.
Yoshihiro wrote a letter of summons on the spot, and Uesugi Teruhora and Kojima Town representative Uesugi Jimho seconded the call.
The letter requested all Noto parties to come to Takaoka Castle in Echu-Shesui County, where the Jinbo family belongs, and wait for the summons. I believe that seeing the Odaisho accompanied by the Uesugi Jinbo army will give the Noto samurai family some face.
All the concubines present at the meeting were united in their will, and Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna was so grateful that he fell to the ground with tears in his eyes to express his gratitude. It was like a prosperous scene of burning oil and flowers.
———
The Echigo review was in full swing, but Takeda Harunobu of Kai felt uncomfortable. The Takeda family's review was also held at Kaiguo Tsubasakikan.
Takeda Harunobu carefully moved his waist so that he could lean on the soft pillow behind him more comfortably. The group of retainers below her always glanced at her belly, which was gradually becoming pregnant, with complicated eyes.
Takeda Harunobu had no intention of thinking about their feelings at this time. She endured the urge to have morning sickness and read the letter sent by Shiba Yoshigan.
The recent discomfort gradually improved as the body gradually adapted to the presence of the seeds, but Takeda Harunobu's mood became increasingly unstable.
She endured the pain, endured all kinds of discomfort, and carefully prepared for the battle. Sometimes, there is also resentment.
It's not that I haven't seen other Ji warriors carrying seeds, but except for a few days before and after giving birth, they are full of energy and have no problem killing enemies in battle.
How could his body, which had always been so strong, become so weak now that he was here? Is it a problem with the child, or is it a problem with the body?
Looking at her increasingly plump body, with her breasts and buttocks getting bigger, Takeda Haru thought bitterly in her confidence.
It can't be my problem, there must be something wrong with that guy's seed. He is really a tormenting enemy.
After reading the letter in his hand, Takeda Harunobu was furious. This enemy really killed people.
Takeda Harunobu originally planned to join forces with Echigo, with the Takeda family going to Suruga Country and Echigo's army attacking Ueno Country. Hojo Ujiyasu of Sagami country cannot care about each other, let's see what she does.
But now the Echigo army turned westward and marched across China, leaving the Takeda family on the spot. Isn't it uncomfortable?
Takeda Harunobu has sent Touha Ninja to the Kanto Plain to spread rumors, hoping to attract the attention of the Hojo family and reduce his pressure to conquer Suruga Kingdom.
But Hojo Ujiyasu is not a good person. She will definitely spy on Echigo's military situation, and will soon find out that Echigo's army is heading west.
By that time, Hojo Uyasu, who has no worries, will definitely support the Imagawa clan in resisting the Takeda family's invasion.
Takeda Harunobu looked at the envoy who had just returned from Mikawa Kingdom and asked.
"Has she already pledged the agreement with Matsudaira Motoyasu?"
"Hi! Your Highness Matsudaira said that she will follow your lead and cooperate fully to defeat the Imagawa family."
Takeda Harunobu saw the envoy swearing so solemnly that he wanted to throw her out. It was really noisy.
Although she has never met Matsudaira Motoyasu, her actions over the years have been turned into information and placed on Takeda Harunobu's desk.
This guy is just a little turtle. He can tolerate it very well on weekdays, but at critical moments he will bite him without letting go. There is no such thing as following one's lead. Isn't it just waiting and watching?
Takeda Haru knew in her confidence that if she didn't take action first, Matsudaira Motoyasu would definitely pretend to be dead.
The Imagawa family is really being attacked on both sides. Whoever strikes first will have to face her desperate counterattack and suffer even greater losses. This little turtle is really insidious.
Takeda Harunobu looked at the ladies under his command.
Takeda Nobulen, the leader of the first sect, had hesitation on his face, Anayayama Nobujun's eyes were expectant, and Oyamada Nobumoge was gloomy and silent.
The eyes of Yamaxian Changjing, the leader of the Pudai clan, flickered. It was not easy for her to suppress the discussions within the Kai clan recently, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
Although the Hatamoto concubines were loyal, they lacked confidence in their eyes. Kosaka Masanobu, who was closest to them, hesitated to speak several times.
Takeda Haru sighed with confidence.
In the Battle of Kawanakajima, she lost her good sister Takeda Nobushige, and her prestige could no longer suppress the Kai people.
The Kai family in the core are like this, and the Shinano family members who are present are not of the same mind.
