Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 367 Resolve Chuanzhongdao

Outside Matsakura Castle, Naoe Keizuna and Kawada Nagasaki's army fell.

The determination to resist in Matsukura Castle was also shattered.

Seeing that the situation was over, the castle general Shiina Kei sighed and surrendered to the Takeda army.

In the end, Keina Shiina and the seventeen generals of the famous Uesugi Shiina who refused to surrender, in exchange for the condition of the life of the full-bodied soldiers, cut their abdomen before the formation.

After Shiina's house governor, Shiina Kangyin killed two singers, he mutilated himself in a partial hall in the city.

The Takeda army took advantage of the momentum and captured Matsakura Castle.

However, for Li Xiao, the cost of this battle was not small. After annihilating the five thousand Echief troops outside the city, he paid the price of more than a thousand casualties, most of which were caused by the Naoe Keizuna team.

After the fall of Songkura Castle, Li Xiao wrote a letter immediately, preparing to report the news to Takeda Shingen, who was facing off on Chuanzhong Island.

However, before the letter was sent, Li Xiao learned the news that Xinxuan had fallen ill on Chuanzhongdao. To Li Xiao, this incident was nothing less than a bolt from the blue.

The letter said that Shingen was very ill. Although there was no obstacle to his fate, he could no longer handle military affairs. Therefore, the important task of general leadership was given to Takeda Katsura, Takasaka Masanobu, and Baba Shinbo.

In all fairness, under the guidance of Li Xiaozhi, Shenglai has grown a lot more than in history, but Li Xiao does not think that Shenglai's current military strategy can defeat the world's number one Uesugi Kenshin.

The Takeda and Uesugi armies facing off on Chuanzhongjima have similar combat strengths. Both sides are evenly matched. However, Shingen’s absence will increase the number of variables in the Takeda family.

After receiving the letter, Li Xiao immediately made a decision. He left Jimbo Nagaken to garrison Matsakura Castle, and then ordered Masaru Shima to quickly march north to join him.

However, Li Xiao himself led the main force of the Hida Yuezhong Army and attacked eastward. Uojin City was on the front line, ready to go straight to the back.

Li Xiao is now going to rush into Echigo. Before Takeda Katsuyoshi and Uesugi Kenshin are in a decisive battle, he flanks Chun Rishan Castle and confronts the main force of Takeda Army facing Kawanaka Island, forming a front and back attack.

Chuanzhong Island.

Uesugi Army Honjin, Chausu Mountain.

Kenshin Uesugi held the envelope, looked at it for a while, and was silent for a while.

A deep sense of silence fell on him.

"Naoe Yamato was killed under Matsakura Castle."

As soon as the voice fell, the letter paper in Uesugi Kenshin's hand fell to the ground, and there was a slight choke in his words.

In the military account, General Uesugi fell into a dead silence.

Kenshin Uesugi turned his eyes to the generals and said: "Kakizaki Izumi died in Shirane Mountain back then, and he has broken my arm, but today, at Naoe's death, I can no longer live without my heart and lungs."

"And Tomori Kawada is also my confidant, wise and brave, and he is very young. I have always placed him in Yuezhong for training. In the future, I have the plan to entrust the things behind him to him. Leave me first."

Uesugi Kenshin’s words fell in the military account. The generals of the Uesugi family listened to them all in embarrassment. Naoe Keizuna and Kawada Nagakin were both generals of the Uesugi family for a while, and their ability is not to say, even if they are used in the world. In the middle, it is also possible to make a difference.

Unexpectedly, after Kakizaki Kei's house and Yoshiki Murakami, they were again in the hands of Li Xiao.

At this time, the elder who was sitting on the first right and the third in the crowd, Uesugi Keihin said: "The death of the lord, Naoe, and Kawada is indeed a huge loss for my Uesugi family, but these two people, plus Shiina Kezhi is my general defender of Yuezhong. After the three of them died in battle, Yuezhong has become a place of emptiness, and there is no way to stop Li Xiaozhi’s military power. The top priority now is to deal with the rapid advance of Takeda’s family. The Viet Chinese Army Corps."

The top of the top seat of the retainers, Jingsheng, said: "My father, Li Xiao is the first warrior of the Takeda army. After Naoe died in the battle, there is no other person besides my father who can defeat him in Echigo. Now that Li Xiao invades Etsuhou all the way, threatening Chun Rishan City, for our army, it is in danger of being attacked by the enemy."

"Saito Shimomomo, what do you think?"

Uesugi Kenshin's gaze condensed, and he looked at Saito Asanobu, who had been sitting still quietly, at the second seat of the retainer on the left.

Saito Asanobu was hit by the iron cannon of the Takeda Army during the last Vietnam-China battle, and he has been rehabilitated for more than half a year.

After recovering from this illness, although he followed Uesugi Kenshin out of Jinchuan Nakajima, his face was still a little pale, and he obviously still hadn't fully recovered.

Saito Chaoxin coughed and said: "With Li Xiaozhi's military force, he must be able to enter Yuezhong quickly and form a pincer attack on our army as soon as possible. The only thing that can stop Li Xiao at the moment is the Yuezhong and Yuehou āo world, my dear. I don’t know the danger. The lord, you can order the Xuanyuan people, as well as the Yamamoto Temple Iyoshou-sama of the immovable mountain city, to fight, here to block, and delay the speed of Li Xiao's entry into Echigo."

"But," Saito Chaoxin hesitated, and then resumed, "In my own opinion, with the strength of the Xuanyuan people and Iyoshou, I can't stop Li Xiao for long. Please prepare for this. "

After listening to Saito Asanobu's analysis, the generals nodded silently.

Li Xiao's Feida Yuezhong Corps has a powerful force of tens of thousands of troops. With the main force of Echigo hanging in the air, this force can already sweep through the back.

"Lord, instead of sitting and waiting like this, it's better to have a decisive battle with the opposite Shingen. If you can risk defeating the main force of the Takeda army, and then turn around and defeat Li Xiao, won't all the dangers be resolved?"

"Anyway, at the moment we are desperate. If we sit and wait, we will only be passively attacked by the Takeda family. Instead of this, we might as well give it a go."

The speaker is Ganzhao Jingchi, and this person is currently among the four Uesugi Kings, the only one who has achieved fruitful results.

Gan Zhaojing's words made all the Uesugi family generals present on the scene a move. What he meant was to give up the confrontation with the main force of the Takeda army and hold a battle to decide whether to win or lose.

Deciding on the battle is a gamble to win the game of the nation.

"King Chi's words are just what I want. Those who do not die will live, and those who do not live will die." Uesugi Kenshin's words sounded loudly.

Suddenly in the military account, all the generals of Uesugi's army were Huo Suiqi, and said loudly: "Those who do not die will live, and those who do not live will die. I am waiting to follow the lord to fight to the death~www.wuxiamtl.com~Uesugi Qianxin waved his hand and said: "The order is passed on, and the whole army will go out tomorrow and fight the Takeda family to the death."

On September 15, it was nine years after the fourth **** battle on Chuanzhongdao.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, heavy fog covered the sky on Chuanzhong Island, blocking the view, and in the faint, there seemed to be the sound of golden drums.

The place where the 22,000 Takeda troops chose to deploy was on the Chinv Mountain on the south bank of the Chikuma River, on the same bank as Haijin City.

Coincidentally, Zinv Mountain was the main formation of the Uesugi Army during the fourth battle on Chuanzhongdao.

In contrast, the previous Uesugi army's main formation, Chausuyama, was also the Takeda army's main formation during the last battle.

This time the two armies exchanged positions and set up their respective positions.

The Uesugi Army's 18,000 army is slowly crossing the Chikuma River and attacking Takeda Army Honjin Wife nv Mountain.

The sixth battle on Chuanzhongdao was about to happen. . ..
