Chapter 903 The Nagano Family Is Over

As for Uesugi's constitutional government, she became the governor of the Uesugi family in Yamauchi, and the Nagano family of Minowa Castle and the Kohata family of Kunimine City also contributed behind the scenes.

At the beginning, the Nagano family became self-reliant and broke with the Yamauchi Uesugi family.But later, by helping Uesugi to take over the constitutional government, the two sides resumed their relationship.

But things went wrong because of the Kawagoe night battle. The Hojo family fought back desperately and overthrew the two Uesugi families in one fell swoop. The eldest daughter of Nagano Karmasa also died on the battlefield.

Uesugi Kensei was forced to flee north and defected to Uesugi Terutora in Echigo. The Nishi Ueno Samurai's investment in her was tantamount to liquidation, and it was all in vain.

Neither the Uesugi Hojo family thought that Uesugi would join the Hojo family because her eldest daughter died at the hands of the Hojo family during the Kawagoe night battle.

Nagano Karmasa had twelve sons, but only two daughters.The youngest daughter is in Yuanfu just now, and the eldest daughter is her carefully cultivated heir.She died at the hands of Hojo's family, how could she swallow this breath.

Nobuzuna Umizumi also understood the difficulties of her old friend, she asked.

"Did Xiaoban's family in Guofeng City take refuge in Hojo's family?"

Nagano said.

"My second daughter-in-law sent a message, and Xiaofan's family was also indecisive.

Although they surrendered to the Hojo family in name, in fact, you know that the people in Kanto don't really count their words, so it's a stalemate. "

Kamizumi Nobutsuna pointed at Nagano Karmasa, not knowing what to say.

Nagano Yesho's second daughter-in-law is Kohata Jingding, who also belongs to Kohata's family in Guofeng City.This old guy is really capable of giving birth and raising, and has a good relationship with his daughter-in-law. No wonder he overshadows the sky in Nishi Ueno.

The west of Ueno Musashi and the two countries are mountainous and the land is not fertile, but the location is quite important.

From north to south, the Kanto Mountains, Musashi Mountains, and Sagami Hills are on the one hand easy to defend and difficult to attack, and on the other hand are the upstream of the source of the river.

Starting from Minowa Castle in the north of West Ueno, Takasaki Castle, Kunimine Castle, and Hirai Castle are entrenched in the western mountains of Ueno.

In the territory of Musashi, there are Hachigata Castle, Matsuyama Castle, Kawagoe Castle, Takiyama Castle, and Hachioji Castle, all the way to Tsukui Castle in Sagami Country.

Ueno Musashi and the two countries lead from the northwest mountains to the southwest lowlands.

East Ueno, East Musashi means a vast plain land, with Tone River, Arakawa and its many tributaries, densely covered with water networks.

And West Ueno, the mountains and hills of West Musashi, are the mountain fortresses that guard Ueno Musashi and the two countries.

The Hojo family doesn't care about Nishi Ueno, because her family is entrenched in the Sagami hills of the southern Musashi Mountains and owns the mountain line from Kawagoe Castle to Tsukui Castle.

But Terutora Uesugi was different. She had to ensure that the Nishi Ueno Samurai were on her side so that she could go south with peace of mind and not be afraid of being stabbed behind her.

Ueno's attitude must be clear, otherwise suspicions will immediately arise between the two families.

The attitude of Kobata's family in Guofengcheng became a ticking time bomb inside the Nishi Ueno Samurai family, which made Nagano Yemasa feel uneasy.

Kamizumi Nobutsuna thought for a while, and didn't know how to comfort her.Nagano Karmasa had calmed down and smiled.

"You don't have to worry about me, this matter won't break me. Before I came to you to practice swords today, I made it clear that I support Uesugi Terotora.

Kobata Nobusada did not dare to disobey me openly, and made a deal with the Hojo family behind my back. "

Umizumi Nobuzuna heard the helplessness in her words and asked.

"Did something happen?"

"Recently there have been rumors in Ueno, saying that I have taken refuge in Hojo Ujiyasu. I checked, and it was the Fuma Shinobu of the Hojo family who was secretly letting the wind go.

I had no choice but to express my opinion immediately, otherwise it would be difficult for Uesugi Terutoro to explain. "

Umizumi Nobuzuna laughed.

"His Highness Uesugi is not such a stingy person. She will not fail to see this little trick of the Hojo family."

Nagano Karma smiled wryly.

"Did you know? There was civil strife in the Numata family, and Kenyasu Numata killed his eldest daughter, expressing that his attitude of following Terutora Uesugi remained firm.

But I just learned from the insider of my relatives that the Nagano family in Stable Bridge City has sent troops to infiltrate Numata County.To assist the second daughter of Numata Xianyasu and drive Numata Xianyasu out of power.

Terotora Uesugi can still trust me now, but if the Numata family changes, what's the use of believing it or not?

The battle between the Uesugi and Hojo families in Ueno Musashi has become more and more fierce, and there is no way to live this day. "

Umizumi frowned.

"These things shouldn't involve you, right?"

Nagano was shaking his head.

"The Kanto servants who belong to the Echigo Imperial Palace have already entered the Agatsuma River area, and they are said to be the elite girls of the Shino clan.

You know, my eighth daughter-in-law is from the Yuwei family.The Yuo family is a branch of the Uno family and a member of the Shino family.

Now the Ziye clan in Yangui City is undercurrents, I don't know if I should take care of them.

I don't want to provoke this Shiba Ken, who doesn't give way to women.But I don't know if he will give me some leeway, don't force me too much. "

Kamizumi Nobuzuna was speechless.

Nagano Karmasa was indeed set on fire, and the North and the South were fighting each other, and the people caught in the middle were really uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the Takeda family's eyes are on the Suruga country. If there is another strong army from the Shinano country to the west, the Nagano family in Minowa Castle will really have no way out.

Umizumi asked in a low voice.

"The situation is so chaotic now, do you have a countermeasure to deal with it?"

Nagano Kazuma sighed.

"I don't want to be meritorious, but I want to have no faults. I just want to stabilize this family business and pass it on to Yesheng."

Kamizumi Nobutsuna said seriously.

"I didn't want to get involved in these intrigues in Kanto. But you and I have known each other for a lifetime, and I really can't bear to see you worry.

Today I will say a few more words, if you want to listen to it, if you don’t want to, just pretend I didn’t say it. "

Nagano industry nodded and said sincerely.

"You and I are already at the age of ears, how long can we live?
I know that your mind is not on these things, so just say whatever you want.I can only thank you and will not misunderstand you. "

Umizumi frowned.

"If you are like this now, you are seeking stability. That kid Yesheng may be destroyed in the future, and the Nagano family in Minlun City may be exterminated."

Nagano Kazuma opened his eyes wide.

My old lady told you to say whatever you want, so you don't have to say it so harshly, do you?Just curse my whole family to death?
Kamizumi Nobuzuna has already said it, and he is going to finish it in one go today, and stop talking nonsense in the future.

"Terra Uesugi went south to get more territory. But no matter how much she takes, as long as she can't control the West Ueno line, these lands will be spit out sooner or later.

In particular, at the confluence of Wuchuan and Jiao Glacier, how far is Takasaki City, which is backed by mountains, from Stable Bridge City to the east?How far is it from Mount Haruna to the west?
You are condescending in Minowa Castle on Mt. Haruna, and you can break out at any time.Take the Takasaki stable bridge line, cut off the Tone River, and let all the hard work of Uesugi Terotora go to waste. "

Nagano was silent, and Nobuzuna Kamizumi clicked the last sentence.

"You have twelve daughters-in-law, many of whom are heroic. They can subdue you and are willing to help the Nagano family in Minlun City.

But what about Yesheng?Although she is brave and not afraid of death, she is still young and lacks experience.When you pass away, how can she turn this situation around?
How many people are still willing to take care of her for your sake? "
