different warring states of japan

Chapter 891

Before Unano Toshi could finish his sentence, the copy had already been slapped loudly by Sanada Nobushige's palm.

"Impossible! My old lady will definitely win the corner of Nishi Ueno and secure the position for the Ueno country where the imperial platform is located!

Uesugi Terutora, the fuck stop her daydreams!With my old lady here, it is impossible for her to succeed! "

Umino Toshihiro aroused the fighting spirit of Sanada Nobushige quietly, but the real difficulty still exists.

Nobushige Sanada touched his head and sighed.

"But the Nagano family in Minawa Castle is really not easy to mess with. The old lady Nagano Yezheng is too powerful."

The two northern counties of Ueno Country are Agatsuma County in the west and Numata County in the east.Geographically, it is connected to the Shinano Mountains and the Echigo Mountains. There are many mountains, the land is barren, and the folk customs are sturdy.

The Ueno country in the south is part of the Kanto Plain, with abundant water conservancy and numerous plains.

The Nagano family in Nishi Ueno originated in Agatsuma County, and was born as a retainer of the Uesugi family in Yamauchi.

With the rise of the Nagano family, her family gradually began to covet the affluent south, and successively built two cities with strategic value, Minowa Castle and Stable Bridge City.

Minowa Castle is located on Mount Haruna, with the Azumagawa Waterway in the north and the Usui Pass in the south, which blocks the north-south passage from Shinano to Ueno.

In addition, Mount Haruna is condescending and monitors the Tone River in the east.This river runs through Ueno, Musashi and the two countries, and is the most important waterway to control the two countries.

Since ancient times, logistics has been the most important thing in war, and logistics transportation can use waterways, which is far cheaper than land routes.The Wu family was poor and couldn't afford to fight for wealth, so they relied more on waterways to transport supplies.

Allying with Uesugi Terutora is Nagano Yezheng, the governor of the Nagano family in Minowa Castle.

At the beginning, the Nagao family in Echigo's Fuchu was under attack, and the branch of the Uesugi family in the Yamauchi was killed, and Echigo guarded the family.

As the vassals of the Uesugi family in Yamauchi, the Nagano family in Minwa Castle stood on the side of Teruo Uesugi's mother, which made the Uesugi family in Yamauchi very angry.

It's a pity that the Uesugi family in Yamauchi continued to decline, and they couldn't stop the rebellion of the Fuchu Nagao family and the Minowa Nagano family. In the end, they themselves were destroyed by the Hojo family.

Uesugi Kensei, the last family governor, had to go to Echigo, and gave all the family servants to Uesugi Terutora, hoping that she could avenge the Uesugi family in Yamauchi.

By taking a glimpse of the leopard, one can know that the relationship between the Ueno samurai family is complicated, and it is a bad debt at all.

Sanada Nobushige said that Nagano Karma is just powerful, because the Nishi Ueno Minawa group headed by Nagano Karmasa is the most troublesome type of samurai group, similar to the marriage forces of the Ouyida family.

The Nagano family has occupied West Ueno for many years and has many relatives.Nagano Karmasa also has a fearsome ability. She is especially capable of giving birth to sons.

The leader of the Minoru clan gave birth to twelve sons, who were married to rich families in various places in Ueno Musashi.And she has a very good vision, and all the wives she finds for her son are excellent Ji warriors.

Nagano Yezheng knows how to be a man again, and has a good relationship with his twelve daughters-in-law.Relying on the Minoru group and the twelve wives, who are dominated by Nagano in-laws, she is entrenched in West Ueno, and almost no one dares to provoke her.

Umino Toshiichi now wants Sanada Nobushige to go to Nishi Ueno to pry the corner of the strongest mother-in-law in Ueno.Nobushige Sanada's scalp was numb, and he really didn't know what to do.

Unori shook his head and said.

"It's actually not as difficult as you think.

The mountains to the north of Mount Haruna are barren, and there is almost no profit except along the Agatsuma River, and Nagano Yemasa has little interest there.

The eyes of the Minowa people are on the Kanto Plain in the south. What we have to do is to integrate the three clans of Shiye north of Haruna Mountain and control the Agatsumagawa River.

As long as Agatsumagawa is in our hands, we can share the pressure for the Imperial Palace and prevent the Uesugi family from overpowering the Kanto Chamber. "

Sanada Nobushige thought for a while, and understood Unano Toshiichi's intentions.

The most important river in Ueno Musashi and the two countries is the Tone River, which originated from the Dashuishang Mountain in the Echigo Mountains near the border between Echigo and Ueno.

The Tone River flows south, but has a western tributary, the Agatsuma River.

In the alluvial plain at the junction there is an important city called Numata Castle.This is the foundation of the Numata family, and it is also the logistical point that the Echigo army must take when going south.

The Agatsuma River goes westward along the north of Haruna Mountain to the Shinano Mountains.On the east side is the branch city of Numata City, named Walnut City, and on the west side is Rock Cabinet City.

Because the north of Mount Haruna was barren, the Nagano family gradually developed Minowa Castle, Stable Bridge Castle, and the coast of the Agatsuma River to the south, which was not the goal of the Nagano family.

Yangui Castle is managed by the official Saito family dispatched by the Yamauchi Uesugi family, and the Yamauchi Uesugi family has been in decline for many years. The Yangui Saito family relies on the local samurai to help manage the place and is not strong.

Sanada Nobushige said.

"You want me to take the Rock Cabinet City?"

Hinori shook his head.

"Not enough. We have to control the two sides of the Agatsuma River on the line from Yancai City to Minghutao City, but the first target is indeed Yancai City."

Nobushige Sanada murmured.

"This time, many people will be offended and killed."

The three Ziye tribes multiplied from Dongshin to West Ueno, and most of them migrated and multiplied along the Agatsuma River.

Now in Yangui City, the biggest force is the Shino family, among which the strongest Yuo family and Kamahara family are relatives of the Unino family.

These two have been fighting openly and secretly for many years around Rock Cabinet City, and no one would like to see outsiders reach out.

The famous Walnut City is connected to the Numata family in Numata County, and the situation is even more complicated.As long as Nobushige Sanada dares to reach out his hand, the Numata family's reaction must be fierce.

"Liu Niang, did the Yuwei family attack the Unino family?"

Sanada Nobushige suddenly looked at Unino Riichi, with a keen intuition and found something.

Umino Toshiichi still had that cold look, but answered indifferently.

"Hao Yukzen formally made a request to the family governor. The Yuo family intends to inherit the name Unano Mae, and the family governor has agreed."

Sanada Nobushige narrowed his eyes.

Today's Umino family governor Dong Gang is old, and her daughter was killed in Dongshin in the early years.The whole family was driven by the Takeda family to Nishi Ueno to seek refuge with the Yuo family, and no heirs were established.

As the Sanada family went to the Takeda family, they returned to the hometown of Dongshin.The hope of the Unino family's revival is also getting slimmer.

Nobushige Sanada was not surprised that the Yuo family coveted the lintel family status of the Unino family, and finally couldn't help but make a request.

When she pulled Uno Li into the water, she used the reason that the Yuwei family plotted against the Uno family.

Sanada Nobushige asked.

"You want me to help you avenge?"

A flash of anger flashed in Uninori's eyes, and his tone became colder.

"I am an official of you, and I will put your interests first. Even if you have selfish intentions, you promised to give the Unano family a future.

I will not use my resourcefulness to seek personal gain and destroy your overall situation, please rest assured. "

Nobushige Sanada smiled awkwardly. Just now, he had a thought, but Toshige Umino responded with a bunch of what you said at the beginning.

She bowed and apologized, sincerely.

"I'm very sorry, I underestimated your character, please forgive me."

After Uninori returned the salute, the coldness in his eyes eased a lot.
