Make a few jokes and get to the point.
Haosaka Nagami sighed.
"I thought we could stay in Vietnam for a while, but I didn't expect that we would be transferred back to attack Numata Castle. This is the vanguard of the army, and a successful victory is the first achievement of the Kanto strategy.
Kawada-hime, your two highnesses value you very much. "
Jijiang Zijian followed.
"This transfer is weird. I always feel like something is wrong. Is there anything to gain from Wada-hime's meeting with Lord Uesugi Kagenobu in the city?"
Kawada Changqin sighed.
"Master Uesugi Kagenobu gave me a hint, and I roughly understood what was going on.
To be honest, I really don’t want this song. You and I, my sisters, were rewarded for our military merits in Yue Zhong, and the land of An Du was also in Yue Zhong.
After all, we are outsiders from Omi. Having too many meritorious deeds and being promoted too quickly may not be a good thing. "
The two concubines were silent for a long time, and both nodded in approval.
It was just a coincidence that Kawada Nagachichi was able to lead the army in Etchu, stemming from Uesugi Teruhora's direct lineage committing suicide.
The Kakizaki Kei family's subordinates coveted Matsukura Kaneyama and occupied land beyond the negotiated agreement without authorization, ruining the overall situation of cooperation with the Jimbo family.
In order to punish the direct descendants, Uesugi Teruhora first left them behind, allowing Yamamotoji Sadanaga and Kawada Nagauchi to lead the army to the front.
But no one expected that Yuezhong Yixiangzong would sneak attack first, almost destroying Yuezhong's strategic plan to go out.
Yamamotoji Sadenaga misjudged and retreated, but Kawada Nagachichi stepped forward decisively to support Yoshigan Shiba and stabilize his position.
As a result, after a chaotic battle involving Yuezhong was fought, Kawada Nagachichi followed Shiba Yiyin to fight for more than ten days and made great achievements.
After the war, Terutora Uesugi thanked her, and Yoshigan Shiba also expressed his gratitude. She was directly rewarded Sengoku Tomoyuki and became a high-level samurai.
Following Yoshie Ziken who went to war, Nagami Haban was also rewarded with three hundred stone tomoyo. The land they settled on was the newly acquired territory east of the Kurobe River in the Uesugi family.
Originally, the three of them were assigned to guard Yuezhong, just to look after their own territory. They invited their relatives from nearby and worked hard for several years, and the foundation was solid.
Who would have known that not long after that, Terutora Uesugi ordered them to be transferred back to Echigo to serve as the vanguard of the Kanto strategy. This is a great thing, but I always feel like something is wrong.
The Omi faction is a group of young people who are just starting out. With such a good opportunity to make meritorious deeds, the big guys must have grabbed it. Where will it be their turn to eat this piece of fat?
The three of them pondered for a while on the way, and when Kawada Nagauchi went to check out Uesugi Kagenobu, the result was even worse than they thought.
Kawada Nagachi said calmly.
"The Kanto strategy has arrived after the summer harvest in advance, and we will be the vanguard. The person who nominated me was Lord Naoe Keizuna. The imperial office nodded, and His Highness Uesugi gave the order.
Sanada Nobushige of the Kanto Palace has already captured Azuma County and will cooperate with us in attacking the famous Kurumi Castle. Numata County must be captured before the autumn harvest is busy, so as not to affect the autumn harvest.
After the war, Naikuri Castle was handed over to the care of Nobushige Sanada. We were in charge of Numata Castle and I served as Numata Castle Representative. "
The more the two girls heard, the more something was wrong, and Haosaka Nagami couldn't help but ask.
“Sanada Nobushige has already captured Azuma County, why is he joining us to fight against Walnut City?
The Sanada people can directly penetrate into the Numata Basin and attack Numata Castle, so why do they go around in circles to attack the mountain fortress of Walnut? What kind of strategy is this? "
Jijiang Zijian also frowned.
"Numata Castle is the residence of the Numata family. Kawata Hime is the mayor of the city. So what does Numata Kenyasu mean to the family governor?"
Kawada Nagachi smiled bitterly.
"That's right.
Internally, we have picked the peaches of the Kanto Palace. Externally, we have taken over Numata Kenyasu’s family fortune. "
Jijiang Zijian murmured.
"That means we are not human inside and out?"
Haosaka Nagami also understood, shook his head and said.
"If this thing is easy to handle, will it be our turn?"
The three looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
There is no shortage of generals in Echigo, including Kakizaki Keie of the Uesugi clan, Saito Asanobu, Irobe Katsunaga, Shima Katsuki from the Kanto Palace, and Honjo Shibunaga. Which one is a good person?
No matter how favored Kawada Changqin is, he will only be a thousand-stone person. Coincidentally, Sanada Nobushige seems to be a man of knowledge and practice.
These two little people from Sengoku are opening up territory in front of them, and a large group of generals and warriors are sitting in Echigo. This is absolutely abnormal!
After much deliberation, I can only say that it was the result of a struggle between the Uesugi family and the Kanto Palace.
Kawada Nagauchi wanted to develop in a low-key manner in Vietnam and China, but was dragged into the quagmire of the Kanto Strategy. She offends her colleagues internally and offends the Kanto warrior family externally, so why does she come here?
Jijiang Zijian thought for a while and asked.
"Can we decline?"
Haosaka Nagami rolled his eyes at his innocent sisters and laughed.
"Shift? Okay, let's get rid of our blockade together. The three of us run away and go back to Omi together."
Kawada Nagauchi shook his head and said.
"It's impossible. Letting us come to Sakado Castle is already a compromise between all parties.
Not only can we not push back, we must also work well and share the Lord's worries. "
Kawada Changqin looked at the two concubines and said solemnly.
“In this battle, our principle is not to mingle, not to offend anyone, keep our heads down and do our own thing.
We will do whatever His Highness asks us to do. We will do whatever the imperial court wants us to do. "
Jijiang Zijian couldn't help but ask.
"What if the orders of the two His Highnesses conflict?"
Kawada Nagauchi is decisive.
"The order that comes first will be followed first, and the order that comes later will be implemented later. But for every order, we have to report it, and the documents are sent directly to the Imperial Palace Office so that both His Highnesses know the details.
We don't take the blame.
Other than that, whether they are the adults of the Uesugi family or the leaders of the Kanto Palace, we ignore whatever they say and only ask for orders from their two highnesses.
The same goes for Sanada Nobushige and Numata Kenyasu, business is business! "
After finishing a long speech, Kawada Changqing exhaled deeply and said.
"Don't ask for merit, but ask for no faults. Take Numata County and be optimistic about Numata City. We can't interfere with other things."
Haosaka Nagami and Yoshie Shiken looked at each other and bowed together to accept the order.
"Hi!"
The formation was lonely for a while, and all three of them were silent.
Learned martial arts and sold them to the emperor's family. The Wu family serves the public and seeks rewards. This is a voluntary transaction between you and me.
These Hime samurai sent by Omi recommended themselves on Uesugi Teru's road to Luo. It was because they had no chance to stand out in their hometown, so they came to Echigo to try for a future.
Licking blood from the blade of the knife, fighting in bloody battles, he finally earned some rewards, and with hundreds or even thousands of stones of land, he was able to stand out.
If they get involved in the political struggle between the Uesugi family and the Kanto Palace, what kind of survival will their little arms and legs have?
Although it is said that wealth comes from insurance, one must also consider cost-effectiveness!
Kawada Nagachichi's performance in Etchu has been affirmed by Uesugi Teruhora, Yoshigan Shiba also praised, and the Omi faction has a bright future.
Because of this, they were forced to get involved in this dispute. At times like this, you need to be more cautious.
Do things with a high profile and be a low-key person.
