In fact, at the end of March, after the spring ploughing, Urakami Sokyo suddenly gathered a large army in the territory to go out to the west to prepare the former Uki family, and the Ukita Naojia gathered 3,000 people in the territory to fight, and the first battle was tied on both sides, and then the two sides were only small-scale friction, and the two sides won and lost each other, and a confrontation was formed for a while. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

As a result, after two days of confrontation, the Mimura family suddenly went out from Bei China, entered Bizen Province from the streets of the palace, and directly attacked the back road of the Ukita Naojia army, and subdued the forces of the wealthy clans such as Hanakaze, Takami, and Emura, and the front of the army was directed at the mountain castle. The Ukita Naoya originally wanted to lead the army back to the castle to fight the cage castle, but the Urakami army followed the Ukita army at all costs, and even though it was ambushed and attacked several times, it still bit the Ukita army.

After three days of desperate attacks, the Mimura army captured the castle, and more than 100 people, including the Ukita Haru family, the Ukita Tadashi family, and the Katsu Gunikatsu, were all killed, and the family members of the Ukita family who stayed in the city were basically all killed, except for the female dependents. After that, the army of the Mimura family and the army of the Urakami family besieged the Ukika army in a place called Nishikawahara to the west of Koyama Castle.

Two days later, the Ukita army ran out of water and rations, and the Ukita army launched a decisive charge against the combined forces of Urakami and the Mimura family, and the Ukita family personally led people to the front. In this battle, 3,000 Ukita troops, Ukita Naoie, Nagafune Sadakin, Togawa Hideyasu and others were beheaded, 1,300 were killed, 200 escaped, and another 1,200 surrendered, but those who surrendered were all beheaded and buried on the spot.

And on the side of the coalition army, the Michimura family went through many battles, and finally received the main blow from the Ukita army, after all, they did not participate in the war, and the Ukita Naojia would not be defeated by Urakami Sokei, so the Ukita Naojia felt that since they were calculated by the Mimura family, even if they died, they could not make the Mimura family feel better, except for the two hundred palace troops of Nagafune Sadako (these people still rushed to the Mimura army desperately in the end), everyone else was the impact of the Mimura army. The three village families all went out with an army of 4,000 this time, and as a result, the casualties reached more than 3,400 people, and they were basically disabled.

In addition to the initial confrontation with the Ukika, the Urakami army was ambushed several times during the later pursuit, but there were no losses in the final battle, with a total of about 600 casualties. Because of the heavy casualties, the Mimura family did not dare to talk about any conditions in the face of Urakami Sokei, who had tens of thousands of horses, and just after the battle, the Mimura army obediently retreated to Bi Chu, and they also made a look of holding the territory, while Urakami Munekei obtained the entire Bizen country except for the territory of the Matsuda family and the Goto family in Akasaka County and Tsutaka County. And after this battle, Urakami Sokei basically no longer has any worries, he is still bent on defeating the Kuroda family, he wants to expand his territory to the east, fulfill his father's wish, and break the previous embarrassment of winning the first battle against Kuroda.

When the Kuroda family learned of the news, they sent dozens of additional members to Bizen to strengthen the collection of local information and the monitoring of the Urakami family's actions. At the same time, it strengthened control in the territory, searched for the spies of the Urakami family, and was ready to call for war at any time. At the same time, he specially told Otani Moriji that if the Urakami family attacked, there was no need to defend the city, and he could directly bring people back to Murozu Castle to defend.

In August 1561, in the fourth year of Eiroku, the Urakami family finally began preparations for an invasion of Harima Province, and after issuing an order from Tenjinyama Castle, he once again gathered 10,000 troops to attack Harima Province.

At this time, after nearly a year of digestion of the territory and population, the military strength of the Kuroda family has also made great progress, and now there are 3,000 standing ashigaru, 500 crossbows, 2,000 peasant soldiers, and on the bright side, the Kuroda family has a total of 5,500 men and horses, and another 500 concentric people.

And the crossbow is now infinitely fireable, and the Kuroda family is no longer a soft persimmon that can be pinched casually, but Urakami Sokei still thinks that the Kuroda family has the same strength as after the first Murozu Castle War, so Urakami Sokei made a fatal mistake from the beginning.

In this year, Xu Weixue brought more than 1,000 Ming people from flat households to take refuge and settled all of them in the coastal area of Yibao County. They brought a large number of chickens, ducks, geese and other poultry, and with the encouragement of the Kuroda family, they also set aside an area for large-scale breeding, as long as there are no major changes, continue to expand the scale of breeding, it will not be long before the current Kuroda family's current crossbow problem can be completely solved, anyway, the current crossbow is light under the scale of 500 people, the crossbow Kuroda family is still consumed. The happiest person is Li Sanbao, whose workshop can finally start.

Among the 1,000 Ming people, most of them are young and middle-aged men, of which 200 young and middle-aged people have joined the Kuroda army, they are adrift at sea all the year round, and eat meat and drink, tall and burly, and their physical fitness is obviously better than the original ashigaru of the Kuroda family. can have a leader of the Ming Kingdom, and he was still a thousand masters of the Ming Kingdom before, and his martial arts are strong, and these pirate-born Ming people will immediately become honest.

When Ryūmei Nobugen first arrived at Kuroda's house, Kodera took a fancy to his ability to lead troops as a thousand households, so he asked him to work with Mibu Kyojiro as a guide to the art of war for recruits, and jointly take charge of the training of the entire Kuroda family's new recruits. At first, Kuroda was a little surprised when he heard that such an important work would be handed over to a Ming person, but since the small temple vocational high school said so, he still had to believe this tall and dark Ming countryman!

At least his first impression to Kuroda was that this was a giant and should be a fierce general, but in fact, that was enough. And when Kodera Vocational High mentioned in the letter that he could easily defeat Takayu Musato in twenty moves, Kuroda Vocational Takashi was at least relieved, and he still knew the strength of Takayu Musato.

Through a period of military training, Dawn Nobuto has achieved good results, and has trained a group of island peasant soldiers who don't know anything into elite soldiers who are forbidden by order and brave, and after several simulated confrontations, even the original Kuroda family Ashigaru is not their opponent, and all the important ministers of Kuroda and Kuroda are surprised. Even Kyojiro Mibu took the initiative to hand over more of the people who were training to Dawn Xinyuan, and he was more interested in teaching the samurai some swordsmanship and other work.

Later, Kuroda decided that Dawn Nobugen would train all the standing ashigaru of the Kuroda family, and after Dawn Nobugen severely punished a few thorns, the standing ashigaru began to train honestly, and obeyed orders, and the entire army took on a new look, and the combat effectiveness went up to a new level, and even Kuroda and Imate Tomoji, who received the information and visited, sighed.

Imate Tomoshi came to Kuroda Castle, in fact, because I heard that the family had recruited a new fierce general of the Ming Kingdom, so I was a little unconvinced, Mibu Kyojiro and his own chess opponent, anyway, he was an island country, and Dawn Xinyuan was a Ming countryman, and he dared to call himself a fierce general, so he couldn't stand it.

But after seeing that the ashigaru of Dawn Nobu's training has indeed changed significantly from before, at least the hostility in his heart is gone, as long as this person is sincere and serves the Kuroda family, he has no reason to be hostile to him, after all, everyone hopes that the Kuroda family can continue to develop.

But since they came, under the translation of Li Sanbao, Imate Yushi and Dawn Xinyuan still fought in a competitive nature, both of them had both strength and skill, competed hard and fought hard, and quickly shot fast, and after a hundred rounds, Imate Yushi was slightly better. After learning about his martial arts, Imate Tomoshi admired him even more, and strongly proposed to ask Kuroda Zhitaka to give him a promotion and a salary increase, with the recommendation of Kodera Vocational High School and Imate Tomoshi, plus his performance during this time, Kuroda Zhitaka did not hesitate, and officially sealed Dawn Nobugen and Mibu Kyojiro as the Kuroda family's guide to the art of war, and the Ming State Reserve General Ashigaru gave Ako County Hara Funeniwa Castle 200 stones.
