Chapter 141: Major Events in the World (II)
Even after Takeda Shingen personally led an army of 15,000 to come, the entire army advanced strongly, crushing all the way, but still could not break through the defense line organized by Matsudaira Kiyomune, and when winter came, he could only withdraw helplessly.

However, the Takeda family finally broke through Kakegawa Castle, and the Uemura family abandoned the castle and fled, saving their lives. Before Tokugawa Ieyasu's return, the Takeda family also obtained the four prefectures of Shutochi, Haruhara, Sano, and Joto of Enoe Province, and gained the right to rule the Eastern Enoe Province, and after leaving 3,000 men to Nobuharu Baba and Masamori Kohata, they returned to Kai with a large army. The Suruga Province was ruled by 3,000 men under the command of Yama Shokei and Anayama Nobuyo.
Matsudaira Kiyomune, a member of the Tokugawa family who performed well in this battle, was immediately entrusted with the important task by Tokugawa Ieyasu and became the banner leader of the Western Enoe Kingdom, responsible for the defense, integration, and development of the remaining half of the Tokugawa family. And the Uemura family also received a good reward, and once again obtained a piece of land with 5,000 stones, which can be regarded as being reused.
In addition, Fukushima of the High Tenjin, Amano of Inui, Iio of Yinma, Matsui of Futama, and Ii of Iiya Valley and other wealthy families and people have also become under the command of the Tokugawa family.
And the Uesugi sister in the north, this time also attacked in October, crushing all the forces in Vietnam and China, and at the same time capturing part of the land of Hebei County, directly threatening the rule of Ishikawa County, which is adjacent to Hebei County.
The Kaga National Daibo official Shichiri Yorishu, and his subordinates Shimoma Yorisumi, Kazuki Yoshinobu and others, organized an army of 100,000 people and garrisoned the border of Hebei County.
Qili Lai Zhou, who has been right with the surrounding countries for more than ten years, still knows that his sister is powerful, so he didn't take the initiative to attack, but his sister carried out an attack with an army of three thousand, and in the face of Kaga Yixiangzong, who attacked the weak and defended the strong, my sister didn't seem to have much to do. In the end, he could only lead the army back to Kasuga Mountain Castle after the new Echichu country and Kaga County.
Time is like water, and three years are fleeting, at least for Kuroda Vocational High School. In the past three years, the Kuroda family has been immersed in development, and there has been no external war except for the initial annihilation war of the Niko family. Because of the control of religion in the territory and the care for the people, there has not been any form of scolding.
At the same time, the Kuroda family's various undertakings are also proceeding steadily, agriculture, commerce, infrastructure construction, flood control and drought control, the Kuroda family is carrying out a large-scale production movement, because of the Kuroda family's preferential policies, almost all the people are willing to contribute their own strength to the Kuroda family, even some children, have taken the initiative to help the Kuroda family to work as much as they can, which makes Kuroda Vocational High School very moved after knowing it.
According to Kuroda's plan, after sowing seeds in the spring of the third year of Motogame (1572 AD), the Kuroda family would go to southern Kyushu. His plan for Kyushu was to get Southern Kyushu first, then attack the Otomo family in the north and south, and then get the whole territory of Kyushu.
Out of Minami Kyushu, Kuroda Vocational High School's target is the Shimazu family again, he thinks that as long as the Shimazu family can be defeated, then there will be no force in the entire southern Kyushu that can threaten the rule of the Kuroda family, in fact, his idea is wrong, and then he will know that at this time he is still just proud of how wonderful his plan is.
However, in the face of the Otomo family, which is still very powerful, with thousands of iron cannons and artillery, it seems that the Otomo family has opened a hanging, Kuroda Vocational High School's chosen strategy is to avoid its edge, and then surround it and finish it in one battle. It's a good idea, but I don't know if it's possible.
The Kuroda family went out to Satsuma this time, and the banner they played was to regain the ruling power of the Shimazu family for Shimazu Tadashige, which is an almost impeccable righteous name. Moreover, before going out to Satsuma, the Kuroda family reported the matter of this trip to Satsuma to the imperial court and the shogunate for reasons of being famous.
Naturally, the Imperial Court, which had received many benefits from the Kuroda family, had nothing to say, but the shogun Ashikaga Yoshiteru, who had just returned to Kyoto, was furious with the Kuroda family's actions, and it is said that the shogun, for the sake of the Kuroda family's battle, used his love sword Daita to cut down a newly planted pear tree in the Nijo Imperial Palace.
However, given the current power of the Kuroda family, it is better for the general to choose to swallow his anger. When the Miyoshi family attacked the Nijo Imperial Palace a few years ago, he was no longer the man he was confident in his status.
He knew that in this troubled world, only power was everything, and without his own armed forces, no matter how big his official position and reputation were, it would be useless. He also needs to gain the loyalty of his subordinates through the Kuroda family's continuous annual offerings, recruit capable ministers, and contact the heroes of all parties to win their support.
It is true that Ashikaga Yoshiteru has returned to Kyoto now, but just like when he first returned to Kyoto from Sakamoto Castle, he simply cannot control his freedom.
Because Oda Nobunaga, who let him return to Kyoto, is the same as the young master of the Kuroda family he met before, and Kuroda Zhigao, who has now become the governor of the family, he is a very ambitious person.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru is also calculating that he can get 500 guan from the Kuroda family every year, 300 kan from the Oda family, and Matsunaga Shu will give himself 100 kan, which is not enough to support the current more than ten shogunates, as well as 800 soldiers, it seems that he still has to Taoguang to raise obscurity! A general without strength is not as good as a small countryman.
In the end, our lovely shogun agreed to the Kuroda family's request to go into battle, but the Kuroda family didn't care about the shogunate's attitude, after all, it was just a routine greeting to the shogunate.
Could it be that the shogunate said that you'd better be honest with the Kuroda family and don't go to Kyushu to make trouble, so that the Kuroda family won't go out? Since the Onin War, how many daimyo will obey the orders of the shogunate? Even if you look like the Kuroda family when you go out of battle, there should be very few people who show a stand!
Since even the imperial court and the shogunate have agreed to the Kuroda family's departure, Kuroda has nothing to consider, and with the righteous name of Shimazu Tadashige, the Kuroda family's appearance seems to be so flawless.
The Kuroda family is out of the Shikoku this time, and the general of the entire army is the leader of the Shikoku Army, Ite, and the deputy general is Shimazu Tadashige, because he is the name of righteousness, so it is very appropriate for him to be the deputy general, and the actual deputy general is Ando Mori.
