On Kawakana Island, war drums kept ringing.

Amid the sound of war drums, Takeda Harunoshi ordered the generals such as Hamatsu Tsuki and others to lead the squad to form a "gun array". With the cover of bows and arrows and stones, they launched a brave raid on the dense long-tail army.

Under the continuous attacks, the Long Tail Army, which was originally arranged in the attack formation, retreated step by step, and retreated more than 200 meters. Naoe Mitsuto was sweating profusely and said to Long Tail Jinghu: "It seems that the fierceness of this Koshu warrior is well-deserved. Please order the defense of the main formation to be strengthened."

"Dragon Flag of Chaos." Long-tail Jinghu immediately ordered. Looking at the aggressive vanguard of Takeda Army, he was like a dagger as simple as a dagger.

So, under the command of Long Tail Jinghu, the rapacious dragon flag was waved, just like the Formula F1 racing car waving the green flag, all obstacles to moving forward have been cleared, and launch a rocket-like charge! Long Tail Jinghu's elite flag book shouted loudly, urging the horses under him to pull out the cold sword, and the horse's hooves stir up the smoke and dust that covered the sky and the sun, like sharp arrows, protruding from the string.

The squeezed Long Tail Army actually launched a mortal counterattack. The young Long Tail Jinghu, the "front" in his pocket, shone golden light, stretched out the famous sword "Xiaodou Changguang" in his hand that could cut the armored generals with one sword and two pieces. The Qiben horse riding team behind him soared to the sky. Seeing this scene, the vanguard foot light team of the Takeda family couldn't help but be frightened. Under the scolding of the retainers, they quickly shrank their formation and prepared to block the plague god grandfathers. Unexpectedly, the Long Tail Jinghu waved Xiaodou Changguang to the side, and the Qiben horse riding team turned a corner again, and rushed straight to the left wing of the Takeda army in a diagonal thorn.

Nagata Keiko is a genius in war. In other words, he has a ghost-like intuition in the battlefield: most of the left wings of Takeda's army came from Shinno's "priority" (that is, the tyrants who surrendered to Takeda and served as the vanguard of servants). His fighting will is generally not strong. He took "safety first" as the priority, but under the impact of Nagata Keiko's keen judgment and death, there were signs of collapse in an instant.

"The order is sent, the middle and right sides are not allowed to rescue the right sides. Attack forward together to resolve the enemy's assault." In the scene, Takeda Haruno was amazed at the courage of the young enemy, and while he was busy issuing new military orders to the envoy carrying the "centi-legged battle flag".

The right-wing troops of the Takeda Army were led by the powerful general Imofu Tomasaki. The rich warriors and footmen were blessed with expensive vermilion paint to make their armor, weapons and flags into fiery red colors, like wildfires all over the mountains and fields, rushing to the left wing of the Nagata family.

The Takeda army was calm in the face of danger and attacked with all their might, which made the attack of Longtail Keihu's attack futile, and Longtail Keihu was not panicked. He personally stopped the horse and cut off the rear and calmed down the command. Many soldiers of the Takeda army were frightened by their majesty, and no one dared to make contributions to the front. The rear team of the Eight Thousand Longtail Army changed to the front team, and shouted and slowly retreated towards Echizen, without any confusion. Seeing that the large army returned, Longtail Keihu took several cavalry guards and left under the setting sun.

"It seems that I have encountered a difficult opponent!" Takeda Haruno said to the general with thoughtful thoughts, half excited and half sentimental.

The Battle of Bushi Shinoi, the end of the "First War of Kawaakashima", was not a big loss in this battle. The Long-distance Nagata Army died 200 times, and the Takeda Army, who was waiting for it, had no decisive results. However, with this as the prelude, Echigo and Kata, the situation in the entire East of Japan had undergone subversive changes.

In the past, the Hojo family rose, the Takeda family was revived, the Guanling and the public were defeated, and now Cheng Yaojin was born again. The young king of Hokuriku Doi Echigo, Nagata Keiko, suddenly became the most eye-catching star in half of Japan (some even called him the "East-West and East-West Heroes" with Masayoro, who has become famous in the Western country). The game between the Eastern country has shown a trend of multiple chess.

In the north of Shinno country, densely packed Chinese people split in an instant. Some were headed by Yukitaka Sanada and became the "Xinzhou pioneers" under Takeda Haruno's account, and became the indispensable combat power for Takeda Haruno to expand the lord in the future. Some were headed by Yoshiki Murakami and Masara Takari, and swore to serve Echigo of Nagata Keito, and then became the "North Shinnoshi" under the jurisdiction of Nagata Keito, with a very determined will to counterattack Shinno country. As for the Kita Shinno region itself, the Shinkoji Temple was also used as the dividing point. Most of the wealthy families in the south surrendered to the Kasugayasaki Pavilion, and the north was only the horse leader of Kasugaya Castle. The "Chinese Paradise" disappeared before and evolved into a mowed grassland for the Warring States famous competition.

The area around Zenkoji became the focus of competition. In order to add fuel to military operations, after the Battle of Shinoi, Haruno Takeda and Keiko Nagata each strengthened their political investment.

The first one to do was Long Tail Kei. In September of the 22nd year of Astronomy (1553), he went to Luo for the first time in the clear autumn weather, and launched a comprehensive "silver bullet attack" to the central government of Japan: Long Tail Kei first paid a visit to Hou Nara and offered a lot of gifts and maintenance fees. The emperor still gave the sword and Tianzhu as usual. Then, Long Tail Kei went to pay homage to General Yoshihiro and received a white umbrella bag with a protective gear and a felt saddle covering. Finally, Long Tail Kei also visited the religious sites in Gyeonggi: Kii Takano (Shiyan Tantric), Yanli Temple (Tiantai Sect) and Kyoto Datoji Temple (Linji Sect), etc.

In short, at this time, the three central authorities (although they all declined), namely, the public, martial and religious circles, and the Long-tailed Jinghu, were all managed, but Long-tailed Jinghu was not completely aimless in spending money. Every move of his actions was profound. First, look at the Emperor. Although the sword and Tianyu given by Hou Nara were of no value, another thing was very important, namely the Lunzhi written by Hou Nara, the Lunzhi of "Private Enemy Punishment" written by Hou Nara. Simply put, if you don't like anyone you like in the future, you can send troops to punish them directly, and you don't have to worry about any big name. This Lunzhi is effective for a long time.

As for General Yoshihiro, needless to say, he can upgrade you to the "Echigo Guardian". Of course, this time he just gave a white umbrella bag and felt saddle covering, which is equivalent to "quasi-guardian". But things are all like this. It's a step-by-step, and the money is still worth it. When someone goes out, he holds a white umbrella bag, which is always cooler than the Tang umbrella bag in the guardian generation.

In the religious world, Yanli Temple is the most authoritative mountain gate throughout the medieval period of Japan. In addition to the two poles of Kyoko Dojo, Ashikaga Yoshikaku and later Oda Nobunaga (actually Masayoshi is also here), few people dared to make ground on it. When they learned that Yanli Temple had less money to build a Buddhist temple, Nagata Keiro immediately paid 200 taels of gold as indulgent oil money. He moved the monks so much that it was worth it!

There is also Linji Sect Datoji Temple. When Keiko Nagata ran there, he got the name of "Sect Heart Great Lama" after taking the precepts. This is also cost-effective. This sect has the highest monk culture and offended them. It will be described as if you are soaked in dog shit in books. It will be a terrible thing for thousands of years. The last Takanoyama Tantra is a purely "personal hobby". Keiko is very religious. People who believe in religion are very enthusiastic when fighting, and Tantra always likes to engage in mysterious powers and magic practices. At that time, Masato Hosokawa was

Immersed in it, and now the same is true for Changtail Jinghu. He learned the "subduing the tantra" from Tantra. The so-called "subduing" originally refers to the method of subduing the Japanese monks through prayer when they encounter disasters and invasions in civilian countries. Later, it gradually evolved into a curse law against hostile forces. It is not difficult for everyone to imagine: Changtail Jinghu sat devoutly in front of the statue of Vaisammon, muttering words, nothing more than "Buddha, give me strength", or "Buddha, Jiafei, get mad cow disease, avian flu and swine flu!"

In addition to taking care of the three major authority, Nagata Keiko also made friends with the Master of Honanji during this trip, and gave it to the Pure Land Shizu Sect many horses and famous swords, expressing their willingness to abandon the "honor hatred" (Echigo's grandfather was killed by the Echigo Yixiang Sect). The two families have since practiced. Nagata Keiko was very happy and issued a Kaga, which was not allowed to go to Echigo's disciples to cause trouble. Nagata Keiko easily gained a stable rear and could focus on fighting with Takeda and Hojo.

During his stay in Kyoto, Nagao Keito also went to a place, Sakaimachi, where he drank a lot of tea with the big dealers and obtained a very deadly technology, which was Sakaimachi's "Iron Cannon Imitation License". Nagao Keito quickly passed through Echigo's port and bought a large number of new iron cannons (of course, some of which were eliminated by the Luo family), and set up an iron cannon workshop under Kasugayama Castle to quickly equip the new weapons to the army.

I stayed near Kyoto until December, and my retainers came to report that the money was almost gone, and it was about to snow heavily on Hokkido Road. So Nagata Keiko was reluctant to return to Echigo.

This time, when Xue Rong the next year, Echigo's Hojo Takahiro rebellion broke out.

Jinghu was stunned and intoxicated by the great success of Guelou, he came back to his senses (actually the old boy Takeda Haruno)! Hojo Takahiro was actually a member of the Echizen Maori family. Historically, the Maori Ikko, who originally settled in Sagami, was liquidated by the Kamakura family at that time, and his fourth son, Quinami, fled to Sahashijo in Echizen, to take refuge in the Echizen Sahashijo, and to breed here, which was called "Echizen Maori". In the Warring States Period, Echizen Maori was divided into two major tribes, the Yasuda family and the Hojo family. Of course, this Hojo family had no relationship with the Kamakura family and the Go Hojo family where the Kamakura family was located. The origin of the word "Hojo" is derived from Sagami "Hojo" (a title that relies on the northern part), which happened to be similar to the latter.

The "Anyun Maori" where Maori is located is when Maori Minami was allocating his inheritance. When he was distributing his inheritance, he remembered that his youngest son Shin-jeong had no property, so he sent him to travel thousands of miles to inherit the Yoshida Village of Anyun Guo, which was half apart from Japan, which led to the Maori Yuan family. So, in terms of generations, the Yasuda family and the Hojo family in Echigo Kingdom were even bigger than the Maori family of Anyun! This is the case. The Tong character of the Anyun Maori family is the "Yuan" in the name of his ancestor Oegi Hiromoto, while the Hojo Takahiro and the other family is the "Hiang" character in front. Maori Yuan has a three-star flag with a text, and Hojo Takahiro also has a three-star flag. In addition, the military flag of Takahiro is also very distinctive: a male ant with a stalking head on it!

Ants have always been famous for their energy and are unpredictable. The same is true for this Hojo Takahiro, but his limited energy has been devoted to the infinite rebellion cause. He is Echigo's famous erectile dysfunction.

The reason for Hojo Takahiro's rebellion was very sufficient on the surface: the museum of Kasugayama Castle, Lord Keiko, who was levied our taxes, but he ran to the Kyoto Flower World for public travel, but we were staying in the mountains to drink wind. I was not happy, so it would be better to rebel. Takahiro complained and said strange words in Hojo Castle, but was immediately learned by the Takeda family's detailed work. Takeda Haruno's 18k Koshu Jin was quickly sent over. Takahiro rebelled rebelled in accordance with the principle that he had to do personnel for collecting money.

The "Ant God" Hojo Takahiro's trouble, the construction plan of the Long Tail Keihu full of construction was disrupted. He had to lead the army in person and surround Hojo Takahiro. He fought with Hojo Takahiro for a whole year. Finally, when Hojo Takahiro saw that Hojo Castle was about to fall, he shook the small white flag at Long Tail Keihu: "Mr. Head of State, I have bleeding in Kasuga Mountain. I have been injured for your father. You can't shoot me!"

What is strange is that Nagata Keito actually accepted Hojo Takahiro's surrender, and even let Hojo Takahiro return to the Nagata family again, and appointed him as an important minister who was on par with Naoe, Honjo and Nakajo!
