A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Ten thousand Shinano soldiers went to besiege Hachioji. The Yamauchi family left 2,000 people to suppress Kofu Castle. They took 13,000 troops from the headquarters, 8,000 Takanashi soldiers, and 2,000 Anasan soldiers to attack Suruga.

Hearing that the Yamauchi brigade was coming, Imagawa Yoshinori also sent people to greet them. As soon as the two armies merged, a brigade of 33,000 troops was stationed outside Sunfu City, overwhelming Sunfu.

The remaining troops of the Takeda clan in Suruga were recruited by Umeyuki Anayama and Imagawahiko Goro, while Nobuzada Katsurayama recruited the retainers of the Imagawa clan as the former elder of the Imagawa clan.

The remaining 4,000 soldiers who were originally stationed outside Sunfu Castle were defeated by the Yamauchi army before Imagawa Clan joined Shouguini. In a melee, they were defeated and fled to Xingokuji Temple.

At this point, there are only three thousand members of the old Imagawa family stationed in Sunfu Castle. However, the Suruga navy is active and constantly cruising around, trying to connect with the Hojo clan and compete with the Yamauchi clan.

After joining forces, the armies relied on their superior strength to launch a comprehensive siege of Sunfu Castle.

Eight thousand Takanashi soldiers marched to Mount Tanizu on the east side of Sunfu, shouldering the responsibility of blocking the Hojo clan's land reinforcements. At the same time, they also gave him the opportunity to plunder the eastern part of Abe County.

The 5,500 members of the Yamauchi banner headquarters camped at the Rinzai Temple slightly north of Sunfu Castle, and monitored the overall situation from a high position.

The remaining troops and the Aneshan people were stationed at Sengen Taisha, facing Imagawakan and Sunfu Castle, and they could oppress the old Imagawa's living space at any time.

On the Abe River to the west of the city, four pontoon bridges were built, controlled and guarded by the Enjiang people commanded by Imagawa Yoshichichi. On the Abe River, the situation of competition between the Hamamatsu navy and the Suruga navy turned into a confrontation.

I have to praise Anzhai Qingkang here. After all, it is due to his family background. The Anzhai navy under his command is the most capable one among the Yamauchi clan's navy. The fight with the Suruga navy was back and forth, with no outcome in sight.

For the Yamauchi family, who had never commanded a navy battle and had only owned a navy for more than ten years, he was the number one general on the water. Even the sailors trained by Yamauchi for ten years such as Yoshizuna Shimizu and Masuji Omura are still unable to compare with old pirates like them.

With more than ten times the superior force, after encircling Junfu on three sides, only the coast of the Pacific Ocean was left in the south.

In order to preserve the prosperous Suruga Fuchu Town and prevent the castle from being destroyed in the war. The Yamauchi family decided to make an emergency landing in Shouguini and win with military force.

"His Royal Highness Yue Jiang will take over Sunfu City this time. Do you have any questions?"

This time it was Isshiki Miyauchi who presided over the military meeting. Now that he was here, what was his status? He was the elder of the Yamauchi clan.

"No objection!" Xiao Pingtai was the first to raise his hand in support.

Originally, the name "Imagawa Miao" was obtained by Koheta for Imagawa's sworn relatives, and he did not support anyone.

Imagawa Yoshitsune, who was still a half-year-old boy back then and was chasing after Mrs. Kohei shouting "Wait a minute," was already twenty-five years old. His mustache was well-groomed, and all the childishness on his face was gone, giving him the appearance of a strong warrior.

"After the transfer to Junfu, I will return the territory of Toe Makino to His Highness Taro."

The rest of the people nodded after listening to Imagawa Yoshichichi's statement. Putting aside the two Jundong counties occupied by the Hojo clan, the Imagawa Yoshichichi territory that took over Sunfu will be huge to more than 30,000 kuen, with Suruga Ikuni Anwara, Abe , Youdu, Yijin and Zhitai five counties. Yuanjiang's previous old collar of 11,000 guan will naturally be returned to the family.

"Where is Abe Kaneyama?" Hokahata University asked. Abe Kaneyama, which produces thousands of taels of gold annually, is more valuable than an ordinary county.

"Leave it to the family!" Imakawa Yoshichichi replied immediately.

There is nothing to say now. Imagawa Yoshitika's leadership of Suruga was confirmed by Yamauchi Yoshiharu and Yamauchi Yoshikatsu, otherwise the prestigious Miao character of Imagawa would be in vain.

What's more, when the territory is large, it is inevitable to enfeoff it. It is better to enfeoff to a close sect than to others.

Imagawa Yoshinoko's abbreviation is correct, but he is Yamauchi Taro's uncle. In the future, Imagawa Yoshitsune will definitely be the one to hold the post of the first class member, and he is the best among the first class.

"Then let's correct the petition and let's get the verdict together!" Seeing that there was no objection from everyone in the Isshiki Palace, he asked Xiaoping Taishu (shielded) to write.

"Your Majesty, for your kindness, I must be loyal and brave!" After receiving the verdict, Imagawa Yoshiuchi knelt down and thanked Yamauchi Taro.

Taro Yamauchi was a big kid, so he came down to help Imakawa Yoshiuchi, "Suruga will be entrusted to his uncle!"

There was a cheerful atmosphere in the tent.

As for Sunfu City, Aneshan Meixue was sent into the city a long time ago. Akatsuki used reason to move people emotionally, and the wisdom of the old nun should have made it clear. Her best choice now is to rely on the prosperous castle town under Sunfu Castle to sell the Imagawa family at a good price.

The main generals in the city are naturally the Okabe brothers, Abe Motoshin, Kuno Sono and other generals. To be honest, these people have fought against the Yamauchi family many times. There will be no illusions about using the power of one city to resist ten times the enemy's army.

They are all practical people, and they are not really rigid about what they want to do, but even if they accept their fate, they still have to sell it at a good price.

Who knew that the Yamauchi family would come so quickly and the Takeda family would be defeated so quickly!

Originally, Shouguini expected the Takeda family to carry out the Yamauchi wave and play a vast ocean of people's war in Kai. She then contacted Hojo and stayed low. With the current situation of the Hojo clan, it was very important to retain a force that could resist Yamauchi.

Unexpectedly, Takeda Yoshinobu was defeated and Kai was gone in three days. Suruga's Anayama Meyuki couldn't resist. With a blink of an eye, she turned around and threw herself at Yamauchi, even transforming into Takeda.

At this time, Shouguini not only did not have enough time to mobilize the Suruga people, but also did not have the opportunity to negotiate and connect with the Hojo clan. Only ten or twenty days after retaking Sunpu Castle, they were surrounded by an army of more than 30,000 people in the mountains.

All the wonderful calculations are fake, just think about how to sell yourself!

"What does the city mean?" Aneshan Meixue left the city and returned to the mountain main formation.

"We welcome His Highness Yue into the city. We will open the city without any harm and the old leaders will be secure. However, the next head of the Imagawa family must be the son of His Highness Yue and Mei Ji."

"Anyone can do it!" Imagawa Yoshichichi nodded first.

The others had no dissatisfaction. This was not a request from the city at all. Apart from the city's general's efforts to secure the old leader, it was considered a proper obligation.

Anyway, it will be Imakawa Yoshitsune who will make the final decision for Suruga in the future. If he is willing to accept these retainers, then there will be no objections from anyone else. As for Imagawa Mei, she was originally Imakawa's main wife, so it was only natural that their two sons should succeed the family governor.

Shouguini deliberately mentioned Imagawa Mei just to let Imakawa Yoshiki remember his identity as the son-in-law of Imagawa Yoshimoto. Everything he is doing now has a huge relationship with Imagawa Yoshimoto.

In short, Suruga Fuchu Castle was opened in this way, and most of the Five Kaido Kingdoms were finally unified under the banner of the Yamauchi clan!
