Chapter 148: Chaos Rises
Tazawa Castle in the eastern part of Lake Tazawa is a protrusion between Senhoku and Iwate Counties, and has long served as a vanguard against invasion of Dewa in the eastern Mutsu region. Since www.biquge.info the Tozawa family was destroyed by the Tsugawa family, although these areas nominally belonged to the Tsugawa family, in fact, the Tsugawa family's control over these places was still very weak.
There are about 100 troops in Tazawa Castle, and the leader of the team is Tozawa Moriyoshi, the general of the Tsugawa family. Previously, at the mention of Tozawa Moritsuna and others, the Tsukawa family was raised, and Tsugawa Soji appointed Tozawa Moriyoshi as the ashigaru general and sent Totoki Yoshimori to assist Umezawa Castle.
And Tozawa Moriyoshi was originally a member of the Tozawa family, so he was very familiar with the area around Lake Tazawa, so Totoki Yoshimori asked Tozawa Moriyoshi to garrison Tazawa Castle with a team of ashigaru.
"Report!"
"My lord, three miles to the east, I found the strength of the Spo family!" An anxious voice interrupted Tozawa Morikichi, who was counting supplies in the warehouse.
When Tozawa Moriyoshi heard this, he hurriedly put down the things in his hand and came to the side of the messenger Ashigaru, and said loudly, "Have you ever seen clearly?" Is it the strength of the Spoo family? ”
"Hah!" Ashigaru hurriedly replied, "There will be no mistake, it is indeed the strength of the Spo family, and the strength of the barnyard family has also been found inside, and the number of enemy troops is at least 600 or more!" ”
"Bastard!" Tozawa Morikichi hurriedly said loudly, "Send a message to Lord Totoki quickly, asking for support!" The rest of the people are on my walls! ”
"Hah!"

The Waga family was originally based in Iwasaki Castle, and Kaga Yoshikatsu said to Kaga Yoshiji beside him with a solemn face, "Uncle, the Barnyard family and the Spo family have already sent troops, and they are currently heading towards Tazawa Castle of the Tsugawa family. ”
"So fast?" Kazuga Yoshiji was taken aback, "I think the operation against Tsugawa Soji has already begun, and the Onodera family in the west should also send troops." ”
"So what should we do now?" Kazuga Yoshikatsu spoke, "In the face of the invasion of the Onodera family, the barnyard family, and the Spo family, even if Tsugawa Soji can integrate the forces in the territory, he will not be able to successfully repel these forces. ”
"Lord, it's time for us to make a move." He Yoshiji said solemnly: "The family can send troops from the lower Zenai Castle, go to the river and the boat, cross the Zhongshan wall, and directly attack the Shizukuishi Castle of the Spo family!" This is tantamount to cutting off the retreat of the Spo family, and if the Spo family still wants to continue to attack the Tsugawa family, they have to worry about the strength of their own family in the rear. In this way, the pressure in the north of the Tsugawa family will be weakened a lot, and maybe Spozuna will withdraw his troops due to the situation! ”
"Hmm," He Yisheng nodded, "But what if the Sibo family directly turns around and attacks the family?" ”
"Haha, this family is not the unprepared Tsugawa family, even if the Spo family united with the barnyard family to fight the family before, wasn't it repelled by the family? Moreover, the Sibo family was unable to mobilize all the troops this time, how could they dare to use troops against their own family easily? He Yiji said with a smile.
"Good! Then do it! Kazuga Yoshikatsu said violently, "Let my uncle lead the troops to attack Shizukuishi Castle, and then I will personally lead the rest of my family's troops to the north to attack the territory of the Barnyard Family!" In addition, the Kamemori family, the Osako family, the Twelve-chome family, the Moriki family and other wealthy families have been deliberately inclined to their own family since the barnyard family was subordinate to the Spo family, so maybe the family can also unite many wealthy families to launch a fierce attack on the barnyard family! ”
"Hah!"

In Tsugawa Castle, Soji Tsugawa didn't have time to settle down Yukihime and Xiaolan, so they hurriedly took Ichiro Yamamoto, Masashige Tozawa and others to the castle tower.
"My lord, I just received a letter of help from Takahashi Castle, Rokugo Castle and other places, 500 people from the Onodera family are currently attacking Takahashi Castle of the main family, and the Owada family and the Yokote family have also sent more than 200 troops to surround Rokugo Castle. The 600-strong troops dispatched by the Sibo family and the barnyard family in the north have reached the outside of Tazawa Castle. What to do, my lord, the enemy army is huge! Takahashi Xingjia said anxiously on the side.
"Sure enough!" Soji Tsugawa suddenly said loudly, "Maeda Narishige and the others are just a chess piece, and the attack on Higashiyama Temple is just to disrupt the deployment of the family, by the way, let's focus on the Higashiyama Temple, and the real intention of the enemy is to directly invade the territory of the family!" ”
"Order Shimono Shandong Township Chengdai Komura Yoshikyo to immediately send troops to support Takahashi Castle, be sure to hold off the Onodera family's troops and wait for me to lead the army to come!"
"The 200 people of Yokote Mitsumori and Owada Mitsumi can't help Rokugo Castle, it's just a trick by the enemy to confuse us, so that Junmitsu Shigedo of Takane Castle will immediately set off for Takahashi Castle to support."
"In addition, an order was sent to Tozawa Moritsuna, Saigo Kicho, Nagano Masabo, Yoshikawa Hiroke and others to immediately mobilize the troops of the family in Nagano Castle, Ryohei Castle, Iwamatsu Castle, Hondo Castle, Komatsuyama Castle, and Yanouchi Castle to support Umezawa Castle, Tazawa Castle will definitely not be able to hold it, but Komatsuyama Castle and Umezawa Castle must be defended!"
Tsugawa Soji issued several orders in a row, and the Takahashi family on the side hurriedly nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I'll send someone to pass the order." ”
"Slow!" Soji Tsugawa suddenly stretched out his hand and motioned to Takahashi Koke to wait for the others, "Inform Hisaharu Mizutani, Tadashi Kawakami, Naogo Miki and others, pay close attention to the movements of the Yuri Party in the west, and strictly defend the various passes bordering the Yuri Party!" ”
"Hah!"
After Takahashi Xing's family left, Ogasawara Shintoki belatedly said to Tsugawa Soji, "My lord, the fire in the castle has been controlled, and it won't take long to extinguish it!" ”
"Well, good work!" Tsugawa Soji encouraged and then asked, "The situation in the city must be very bad now, the people's eating, sleeping and other issues are the top priority in the future, Ogasawara Shintoki and you and Saigo Kizo stayed in Tsugawa Castle to coordinate related matters, count the losses, appease the people, and be sure to deal with the aftermath!" ”
"Hah!"
Tsugawa Soji then said to Togo Yoshisuke in the palace, "Togo Yoshisuke, you leave for Anton's house immediately, it won't be long before you take a boat from Yodogawa Castle to Minato Castle, and the Andong family is an ally of the family, and the family needs the help of the Anton family in this great disaster." ”
"But the Anton family has just had a big war with the southern family, and I'm afraid they can't support their own family." Togo Yoshiyu said worriedly.
"Anton's family has a lot of money, even if he can't send troops, he should still be able to help his family to a certain extent in terms of money and food!" Soji Tsugawa said with a smile.
"Hah!" Togo Yoshiyu said firmly: "Your Majesty, let's do it!" ”
"Tozawa Masashige, you immediately set off and return to Kanazawa Township, arrest all the people of the Kanazawa Masang clan, watch them, and wait for the war to end before they are released!" Soji Tsugawa then said to Masashige Tozawa.
"It's the lord!" Tozawa Masashige hurriedly replied. Tozawa Masashige's current Zhixing is in the area of Kanazawa Township, and it is the most suitable person to let Tozawa Masashige be responsible for arresting people.
"Ichiro Yamamoto!"
"In!"
"Immediately mobilize all the troops that can be mobilized in Tsugawa Castle and follow me to Takahashi Castle!"
"What about Tazawa Castle?"
"There are Yoshikawa Hiroshi and others on the side of Tazawa Castle, and they should be able to hold it down, but Shimonoyama must not be lost, otherwise Tsugawa Castle will change hands!" Soji Tsugawa looked outside the castle tower and said slowly! (To be continued.) )
