Yonglu Second Year (1559) Late August Koe Takashima County Yanaigawa Village Shimizu Yamashiro Decaying Wood Tsunana

"Shoujutsu Hall of Minbu, Young Maru Takeshi, it's been a long time. I'm gonna be in trouble again this time."

Kamihiko Nagato bowed his head politely. When I first ascended, I was only twenty years old, but six years have passed since then. Nearly thirty years ago, calm seems to have been added to the rigour we had. It's a penetration inside.

"It gives me great pleasure to welcome the Major General. Let's be tired. Yes, go inside. And those with you."

Late in August, the remaining heat is also severe. Greetings outside the castle also suggested that Takenaka Maru enter the castle there. Nagato is home to a total of one thousand and five hundred people, most of whom stay in lodges beneath the castle. In addition to Lord Jinghu, there are five other nearby practitioners entering the castle.

Entertain in the hall before entering the castle. The women placed a large bowl with a cold hand wipe and cold well water in front of the customer. When Young Maru Takeshi advised him to wipe his sweat, His Majesty General wiped his chest off his neck by hand. I'm trying to feel good, the ministers imitate it. Then he took up the bowl and said happily that he would take a sip or two of the water and drink it "in sweet dew”. My friends started drinking water deliciously. I guess they were all thirsty for the rest of their lives.

"It's late, but I congratulate you with all my heart. I have heard that the public has forgiven me for my appointment as Major General of Kingsguard and for my appointment to the Kanto administration."

When Young Maru Takeshi said, "Congratulations," the decaying trees chanted to it. The Major General puzzled his face. Ha...

"No, no, I'm ashamed to be celebrated that way by Lord Takenaka Maru. Lord Takenaka Maru's allegiance to the morning court, and harmony between the general and Sanho. Truly brilliant work and dedication. Somewhere far away."

"I don't have to do that. Master Uesugi Yamanuchi was asked to trust the Major General's strength and character."

There was a long chat of no other love. When the Major General spoke with pleasure about Kyou, Echiko, the recent situation of the public and when he saw the Emperor, Young Maru Takeshi gently hammered him. Apparently, the Major General received a knife from the public. But when he heard that the knife was forged by Sochi the Decaying Wood, everyone was astonished.

If you ask me, it seems that the knife forged by Decaying Wood is now largely reputable in Kyo. You think it's traded at a high price? Because the public has been in decaying trees for a long time, they possess several swords forged by decaying tree blacksmiths. They seem to envy me a lot from around here. When I heard that, Takenaka Maru laughed happily.

Oh boy, my grandson seems more pleased that the knife is selling than asking about the public's recent situation. It is also true that otherwise decaying trees cannot flourish to this point. Takenaka Maru also has a knife here in Shimizu Mountain Castle, I'll show you later, so I said why don't you take whatever you want, and now the Major General laughed happily. Takenaka Maru will now come to the merchant in search of a sword from Echigo, that's what he thinks.... I'm starting to be able to read Takenaka Maru's ideas.

When he thought it was time to show the view outside the castle, the Major General ordered the ministers to "remove their seats temporarily". Ministers fall outside the hall. Takenaka Maru also ordered the ministers of Decaying Wood to step back. The Major General said, "Stay where you are." Bamboo Young Maru is also nodding. I'm in front of my ex-member, didn't you like being taken in secret... When everyone was gone, His Majesty the Majesty General, who had been in a good mood until then, turned into a serious expression.

"Lord Takenaka Maru, something is troubling me right now. I'd like your advice, Lord Takenaka Maru."

"Some advice…"

When Takenaka Maru smiled bitterly, the Major General shook his neck beside him.

"Humility is useless. The strength of Lord Takenaka Maru as a militant is something we all acknowledge, please."

……

Young Maru Takeshi puzzled his face, but the Major General began to speak without any concern.

"Trouble is nothing more, it's about Kitahino. The battle with Takeda doesn't go as far as I think. The fact is that Takeda is gradually growing in strength without a good idea whether he won or lost. Now that we have Kanto, we want to settle the battle with Takeda, but we can't think about how to do it."

The Major General shook his head. I see, Kitano and Kanto, or Takeda and Hojo? Naturally, you want to avoid having two enemies? Not to mention they are both never weak enemies...... Nevertheless, I didn't know His Majesty General would ask Takenaka Maru for advice..., his chest got hot.

"Don't you have a good idea? What would Takenaka Maru do if he were someone?

"... I don't know a thing about Kitahino about land, people, or anything. Besides, I don't think there's anything I can do to advise the Major General about the war."

……

Bamboo Young Maru shook her neck to the side. The colour of discouragement floated in the expression of the Major General, his shoulders fell.

"... but I have a few thoughts. It may not be clogged, but I want you to listen to me when you want to."

"I'd love to hear it."

The Major General has corrected his absence.

If you don't, you don't have a life, you have a life.

"... no life, no life, no life."

When His Majesty the Major General muttered, Takeshi Young-maru nodded.

"There are no provisions, etc. in a person's life. It is vital that we make desperate efforts to find a way to live even in desperate situations. That's where the live line comes from."

The Major General nodded.

"Hell is beneath the knife that cuts, if you step in, the rest is extremely easy"

"What's that?

"A slight gap leads to death when taking lives relative to each other with a machete. That fear is just hell itself. If you overcome that fear and approach the target, there is a body in front of you. If you shake the machete, it will reach the target. I don't even have time to feel scared, which means it's extremely easy."

"... I see"

The Major General nodded again.

"I don't know if I can help you..."

"No, no, no, no. Sure, if you ask me, I've never stepped in and fought Takeda. I also thought it was nothing more than enemies stepping in... No, it's good to talk to you. Someone's ready."

The Major General gave a laugh with a sunny look.

"There is no life, there is death. A truly good word, in all words."

Yonglu Second Year (1559) Late August Takashima, Omijiang County Yanaigawa Village Shimizu Yamashiro Takerakamaru

Jingtiger returned after. She was a dangerous Anne with no different eyes. Still, I was wondering if you were here for a drink. What kind of joke is it that Kenshin Uesugi, the military god, consults? I thought I'd say no because I don't know, but you're going to blatantly lose your power. Words stuck out. I'm weak when I get that look on my hand. Even when Yoshihui was there, he said something extra and failed. Well, you'll be fine this time. We're gonna punch him in Kawanakajima anyway. He said he was ready, and there should be no problem.

Haruhito Takeda and Jinghou Nagao, that won't fit. I don't think the reason that doesn't fit is in the character of Qingxin and Jinghu. I believe that the difference between the two realms, Kofi and Beyond, and their lack of awareness of each other's realm, made the relationship so intransigent. If you ask me, it's the difference in how you grew up.

It was Heavenly Shin's father, Shinto, who united Kofi's country. This Shinto has an extremely bad reputation. It was atrocious, brutal, war-loving, tormenting the people and exhausting the country. So I was banished, that's how they say it. But I think I'm a little different. Shinto is a man who unites confused merits. He is also the man who laid the foundations of the Kofi Takeda family, the great name of the warring nations. With all those shortcomings, can we unify Kofi ichi and create the foundation for the Kofi Takeda family?

Uniting the country requires the power to bring people together. Would people follow a guy with all those flaws? It won't be possible, at least I think Shinto until Kofi Unity was quite a figure, rather a competent one. Then why did Shinto go after the lord's throne and be banished from Kofi? In my opinion, the Shinto is broken.

A country of merit is an extremely poor country. There are only about 200,000 stones in Loch Gao with little arable land. Besides, the damage caused by drought, cold damage and river flooding due to weather irregularities is half as bad in mountainous countries. As usual, damage was said to have occurred. Shinho would not have been happy at all to unify Kofi. I think it's like getting a job in a hell of a black company by analogy. Drought, cold, flooding, murder, starvation. I assumed responsibility for dealing with them as a lord. Everyone is mentally ill if all these bad conditions are in place.

If we try to improve this situation, we have to go outside and take the land where the rice becomes. But to the south is the strong man of Tokaido, and to the east is Hojo, the strong man of Kanto. Inevitably, the eyes turn to Shinano in the north. Shinano is a bunch of people. I know you've thought about destroying each and every one of them to develop your forces, but it's not going to work. So I went crazy mentally and everyone abandoned me. I'm wondering if that's the place.

No, maybe he wasn't abandoned. It is also possible that the truth is that it was sent to a maintenance site called Surugawa due to illness treatment. Being in Kofi doesn't make my illness any better, Surugawa has a daughter and grandchildren. Did you think it would be convenient if I nursed you? Well done but I'm at my limit already, leave it to my son later. Your father needs a little rest, maybe that's what it was like.

Qingxin, who succeeded him, managed to attack Qingxin and pushed away the village and went on with the Shinano control project in a vicious struggle. Both Shinko Itagakagaki and Sugar Tiger Tae ministers have expanded their forces while losing numerous other generals. The damage was never small for Takeda either. But Takeda still didn't give up on Northbound.

I think for Takeda, Northbound was the ultimate choice between sitting down and starving or going north and eating rice rather than expanding the forces. This was Takeda's national policy at the time, but this is no longer simple. If you don't want to starve, attack where you seem weak and get rice quickly, that's all. There is no strategy at all. Somewhere similar to the Army of Showa. Sometimes the TV drama makes the setting of aiming at the sea beyond, etc., but I have determined that there was no such thing in Qingxin. It was the weak Shinano, and Nishigamino, who were targeted.

After the reign of the other Jingtiger, but this is completely different compared to Kofi. We were blessed with the plains and were able to expect enough rice harvest. And I can have the ocean and trade. There was also income from a specialty called Echigoku Echigoku. After that it was rich enough to be too much. I don't think Jinghu understood the hardship, no sadness, of Qingxin, born in Kofi's country.

The Takanishi family, who had forces on the ground, seek reinforcements from the Jiangtigers when Heather Shin proceeded to the ranks of Jiangke, Takai, and Uchi counties. This will trigger the battle of Kawanakajima in the fifth and tenth years. Jinghu will be regarded as a righteous general through the battle of Kawanakajima and will be under Kanto administration, but I do not consider Jinghu to be a righteous general. It was not for the people lords of Kitamshino that Jinghu was held in Kawanaka. I see that there have been more real problems.

It was the Takani family that made the request for rescue to Jinghu, but at this time the owner of the Takani family was Takani Politburo, and his mother was from the Nagato family. This means that Jinghu and I were related. And when I look at the relationship between this Takani family and the Jingtiu's Nagao family, I realize something strange. The two families have been married many times. A woman is married from the Nagao family to the Takani family and from the Takani family to the Nagao family. In other words, the Jingtiger will also contain the blood of the Takani family.

Marriage at that time was a political marriage. Anyway, the fact that we have a marital relationship many times once means that there was some kind of political strategy there. Normally, we connect with leading domestic players. By doing so, we should expand the influence and influence of the Nagato family in Echigoku. However, the Nagato family continues to have a marital relationship with the Takani family in Kitahino. I mean, we value our relationship with the Takani family, but why?

At the time we began entering into a marital relationship, the Nagato family was a patriarch and not a guardian of the Echiko guardianship bill. In other words, with the consent of the Echigoku Guardian and Uesugi family, they must have entered into a marital relationship with the Takani family. In that case, the political strategy implied by this marriage was valid not only for the Nagato family, but also for the Uesugi family and, more broadly, for Echiko. In other words, this marital relationship must be seen as one of the national policies of the post-Egyptian period.

I realize that when I look at the border of Shinko with such eyes. The modern people may not realize this, but in this era, the center of Echigo is not Niigata City, where the prefectural government is located, but Uetsuko City. Naturally, Haruhiyama Castle is also in Uetsuke City. And the city of Ueno is the city of Iiyama in Nagano prefecture, which is the Shinokuni underwater county of this era, but is adjacent to it. What does this mean? In Echigoku, there are many plains. Once the enemy enters, there is no heavenly temple to prevent this. The city of Uetsuko can be a ravaging place for enemies.

In other words, it was a major security issue for Kitano at the time and beyond that time to take Kitano, especially Fukake, Takai and Uchi counties, into hostilities. So the Nagato family has continued to have a marital relationship with the Takani family, the leading player in the region, and the Uesugi family has approved it, no, it may have rather held back. This marriage was closely related to security issues in the aftermath.

I think that if we look at security policy after that time only at the Shinko border, we will have:

First, we will not allow a huge hostile force to emerge after Hokushinno.

II. Retain the superior counties, Takai, Takai and Uchi counties in the forces of the pro-extractor faction.

In other words, it may be seen that for the post-crossing period, the security borders included Kitano, particularly the further, Takai, and underwater counties. Land is abundant around here and rice production is high. Naturally, Takeda steps in there. It is only natural that the Jingtiger reacted sensitively to the rescue request issued by the Takani family. Perhaps from the time Takeda went north, Jinghu would have watched Takeda's movements.

Jianghu must have left without a request from the Takani family. This is not a battle for righteousness. It's a matter of life and death for security, that is. That's why the Echigoku generals followed the Jingtiger. Otherwise, we couldn't have continued the barren battle for ten years.

In short, the battle of Nagato (Uesugi), who will take a leap into securing security with Takeda, who struggles badly to solve the food problem by touring northern Shinano, is the essence of the battle in Kawanaka. We both fought with death and dying problems. Besides, I don't even think they both understood the other person's situation. I had no choice but to prolong.

Later in life, Toyotomi Hideyoshi said it was a “hard battle”, but did Hideyoshi say it after understanding the area... When Oda dealt with Takeda, Takeda was becoming mighty at that time. Hideyoshi would not have thought Takeda had become mighty to escape hunger.

I had a chance to stop the war. The second Battle of Kawanakajima, in this battle, is harmonious in the mediation of Imawa without the continued food on Takeda's side. Takeda admitted that the people lords of Kitano would return some of the occupied land. And promised not to invade any more. Takeda's food situation must have been pretty bad. We had to make concessions.

The national lords who returned to North Shin would have thought that Jinghu could rely on them, and should rely on them later. The Parent Echinacea secured the North Faith. It's good to say that at this point the Jiangtiger has fully secured security after the crossing. The security problem was solved if I tried to be a Jingtiger, that's what I thought. I should have ended up like this.

But shortly after this, there will be trouble. The Jingtiger is disgusted with everything in the realm and runs away from home. Try Jinghu and the security issue is solved. Whatever you say, the arbiter of Wakami is Imagawa. If Takeda breaks the Wakata, he will crush Imawa's face. There will be no such thing. I have no problem running away from home. It is possible that I thought so.

But Qingxin saw this as an opportunity. No. Should I say that I had a strong desire to get rice? Occasionally resume the invasion of Kitano. Jinghu would have been surprised, as would the late Lords of the Nation. Jinghu returns soon after, and the Lords gather at Jinghu, with the exception of some. And there was the battle of the Third River Nakajima. I think it was a miscalculation for Heather Shin. Qingxin would have preferred more chaos after the crossing. I think Heather Shin felt uncomfortable with the prompt aftermath response.

I think that maybe from this time on, Qingxin began to think about what Kitano meant to Echino. There are two borders of Shinko for the Echigoku. Borders as a matter of fact and in terms of security, that is, borders as a line of defence. And the security borders include North Shinano…. Qingxin would have been stunned when he realized that. Kofi is a mountain country, where the mountains are at the same time at the border as the heavenly beast. For Qingxin, who had the perception of border = defensive line, the idea of laying a border – defensive line, especially a defensive line, outside the country, could have been unexpected.

I have stepped into Echigoku territory without realizing it, this battle is prolonged. That's what Qingxin thought. And I would have thought it was awkward. Takeda's policy is to attack weak spots and gain rice. That was unlikely to be possible with Jingti opponents. And I think Qingxin once again thought about building a border line between Shinko and Shinko.

Reconciliation was impossible. There was no way Jingtiu could trust Takeda more than once he broke the sum. If negotiations become impossible, we can only seek a solution by force. Shortly before the battle of the Fourth River Nakajima, Takeda is building Kaizu Castle. I think Qingxin intended to use this castle as a hub for the Shinko border line. South of this castle is Takeda territory. So don't go in there. That's the place.

After one thousand five hundred and sixty years, the finalization of the Shinko border becomes an urgent matter for Takeda. Because the battle between barrel cramps has weakened Imawa. A new weak meat was found. Kitano can't go any further north. We should finalize the border and head south as soon as possible, that's what I thought. The thought made the Battle of the Fourth River Nakajima spectacular.

In the Battle of the Fourth River Nakajima, Jinghu lays his own formation south of Haijin Castle on Mount Wife and Daughter. Perhaps I was thinking about a showdown with Heather Shin, but Heather Shin would have had his head. I don't know if it was meant to be, but Jianghu has gone inside the border line that Qingxin thought of. If Qingxin were to try to finalize the border, he had to knock Jianghu out of his wife and daughter's mountain. By doing so, I could not make Jinghu admit that south of Haijin Castle was Takeda territory, no later.

The famous woodpecker method of warfare was adopted for this purpose. I find it strange when I examine this woodpecker method of warfare. Separate squadrons are more powerful than the main squadron of Heather Shin. Eight thousand for the main unit, twelve thousand for the separate unit. It is good to see that the intention of Qingxin is strongly reflected in this appropriation, although naturally. Qingxin wanted to knock Jinghu out of his wife's mountain.

The Fourth River Nakajima battle ends with great damage on both sides. Four thousand dead on the Takeda side, and three thousand dead on the Nagato side. Both soldiers are civilians. That means we've lost all our productivity. Both Qingxin and Jingtiger would have turned pale in their faces. I can't fight in North Shin any more, that's what I thought.

After this, there will be a Fifth River Nakajima battle, but neither will attempt to fight directly. I think they were both checking to see if they were willing to fight or not. And we both made sure the opponents weren't willing to fight. The border of Shinko has finally been finalized here. I think so. The heavy damage caused by both sides in the Fourth River Nakajima Battle resulted in the finalization of the border.

In the next two years the battle of the Fourth River Nakajima breaks out......
