"General Uesugi had better not wait for our army to take action. Now most of the well-informed kings and generals of your country know that our country has sent troops to attack Yamazaki Kingdom and has defeated Yasuhiko and his army on Tsushima Island. Now Yasuhiro and Kazuo should gather
The Chinese military is in Fukuoka area to prevent our troops from landing, and the monitoring of domestic alliance countries is not as strong as before. If General Uesugi wants to get a seat in Japan, now is the time!" Liao Li enlightened Uesugi Kensei.
.
Ken Uesugi clearly understood what Liao Li meant. Nowadays, Yasuhiko Yoshikazu is constantly searching for daimyo, samurai, farmers, and many samurai from all over the country in preparation for the war. The farmers are on the verge of bankruptcy, and their attitude towards Yasuhiko Yoshikazu has also changed from fear to dissatisfaction. Now there are Han
This powerful foreign force carried out armed intervention under the guise of aiding Yamatai.
If you raise an uprising against Yoshikazu Yasuhiko at this time, you can easily get support from all over the country, as well as the response of the nobles and city lords. However, if you raise the army in the name of aiding Yamatai, once Queen Yamatai takes control of the entire Japanese island, she will want to sit down in the future.
The position of the leader of the previous country is difficult, but this is not a big problem. As long as there is the support of the Han army, it is still possible for him to take charge of the government affairs.
After figuring this out, Kenaki Uesugi immediately declared an uprising and raised troops to attack Yoshikazu Yasuhiko. As expected, as analyzed by Gan Ning, Liao Li and Kenken Uesugi, the uprising forces on the Japanese island appeared like wildfire and spread rapidly.
Come.
Most of the kings, nobles, and city lords expressed their willingness to support Uesugi Kenaki, and there were countless young and great samurai who joined in admiration. It is undeniable that the rule of the shogunate once brought rare prosperity and tranquility to the Japanese island, but this peaceful life has no impact on Japan.
This is not a good thing for samurai. Their special status prevents them from letting go.
They lowered their arrogance and engaged in farming and business like ordinary people, and joined the shogunate without intensifying centralization which weakened the privileges of the samurai class. All these made a large number of samurai hate the Yamazaki Kingdom deeply, and Uesugi Kenaki's declaration of uprising was like a flash of inspiration.
The Japanese warriors saw hope and joined Uesugi Kenaki's camp one after another.
Uesugi Kenaki led the rebel army from Echigo Kingdom, all the way south, approaching Kyoto, the capital of Yamazaki Kingdom, and quickly attracted the attention of the Yamazaki Kingdom. The severe situation forced Yasuhiko to deploy troops to stop Uesugi.
Kenaki's advance, however, Uesugi Kenaki has now been dazzled by the victory, and excessive underestimation of the enemy will make him pay a huge price.
Due to backward intelligence, Uesugi Kenaki did not know that Yasuhiko Yoshikazu had sent Hyuga Neji as the general and Hyuga Hinata as the deputy general at this time. There were nearly 200,000 people in the three-pronged army to deal with him, which was twice as many as Uesugi Kenaki.
Many, forming a confrontation with Uesugi Kenaki.
Kenaki Uesugi accepted the advice of his son Uesugi Takata and ordered the troops to shrink their defense lines and defend Uji, Shiduo, Yodo and other important passes. He also sent hundreds of people to the Osumi Strait in Kyushu to meet the reinforcements of the Han Dynasty led by Huang Zu, intending to restore the defeat.
.
At this time, after several exchanges with Liao Li, Gan Ning gave up the plan to land at Fukuoka, and instead let the Second Fleet guard Tsushima. The First Fleet and a large number of civilian ships transported the Han army to Echigo Kingdom, where they met Huang
Ancestor, Pei Yuanshao's troops joined forces.
After receiving a letter from Kenaki Uesugi asking for help, he believed that troops should be sent to help Kenaki Uesugi, and promptly informed Kenaki Uesugi of the news that the Han army was about to move south. At the same time, he ordered Mitsugaya Yoko and Hayashihara Megumi to lead their fleet south to Kobe Port.
Landing from the rear of Yasuhiko Yoshikazu to relieve the pressure on Uesugi Kenaki, Sajikuni continued to govern and train soldiers in the country.
Kenaki Uesugi believes that in terms of equipment and combat effectiveness, 30,000 Han troops are enough to resist the 100,000 Yamazaki troops. If they wait for the Han troops to come to support, then a large amount of military exploits will most likely be obtained by the Han troops, which will increase the prestige of the Han troops on the Japanese islands, and
The Uesugi Army lost an important opportunity to establish its power, which was not conducive to the future development of the Uesugi family.
Therefore, Kenaki Uesugi prepared to seize the Kobe Port in his own hands before Mitsuya Yoko and Hayashibara Megumi. Wait until the Han army went south, repel Yasuhiko and Hojo's two armies, and then set out from Kobe Port to conquer Kyoto in one fell swoop and control the Yamazaki Kingdom.
General trend.
It was Uesugi Takata who undertook this task. After receiving this task, Uesugi Takata felt not much pride, but more of a worry. Fighting alone in a remote place, the entire army would be annihilated if he was not careful. Although he
I tried my best, but I still felt a little worried.
"Do your best to honor my Genji!" Unconsciously, the words of his father Kenaki Uesugi echoed in Takata Uesugi's mind again, yes! I, the Uesugi, are the descendants of Genji, the authentic Minamoto no Yori of the Kamakura shogunate, but Minamoto Yoritomo,
His wife's family, the Yamazaki clan, had the real power of the Kamakura shogunate, and the Uesugi clan, as the authentic Minamoto clan, became the subordinates of the Yamazaki clan. This situation could never be tolerated.
Uesugi Takata slammed his fist on the railing and said fiercely: "If you don't succeed, you will be a good person. Why do you think so much about it!" Before he finished speaking, he turned around and waved to the ordering soldier beside him. Soon, everyone
The sails of the warship were raised, and the sailing speed suddenly accelerated.
Kobe Port is the trading seaport of Yamazaki Country's fish main city. There are not many soldiers stationed there in normal times. Since the war between Yamazaki Country and Uesugi clan, the lord of fish main city decided to lead troops to join Yamazaki Country. After he left, Kobe Port basically
In an undefended state.
When the vanguard of the Uesugi Army arrived at the Port of Kobe, the residents of the Port of Kobe showed no resistance at all and surrendered very obediently. They also sent leading figures in the port to discuss the surrender. Everything seemed to fall into place and there was nothing suspicious about it.
at.
After receiving the news, Uesugi Takata immediately led 10,000 troops to the port of Kobe, and commanded the warships to begin approaching the port. When Mitsuya Yoko and Hayashihara Megumi followed the instructions of the Han army and led the fleet to the port of Kobe, they discovered that
The port has already been named Uesugi, and Uesugi Takata proposed that the future
With the permission of the head of the family, Kenaki Uesugi, the fleets of Mitsugaya Yoko and Hayashihara Megumi were not allowed to enter the port of Kobe. The furious Mitsugaya Yoko and Hayashibara Megumi cursed Uesugi Takata for being insidious, and wanted to bring the new fleet made by the Han Dynasty to the Uesugi family.
All the ships were sunk in Kobe Port.
However, unlike the Uesugi family, Mitsuya Yoko and Hayashihara Megumi are completely supported and armed by Gan Ning. They have regarded Gan Ning as their master from the bottom of their hearts. Without Gan Ning's consent, they will not create extraneous matters without permission.
of military operations.
Outside the port, Mitsuya Yoko, who has been in the officialdom for many years, has a cunning heart. He always thinks that Uesugi Takata's capture of Kobe Port was too smooth. There is always a lingering shadow in his heart, as if he had a premonition of a storm before.
The fleet was ordered to cruise away from Kobe Port, carefully observe the movements of Kobe Port, and send a clipper to send a message to the Han troops Huang Zu, Pei Yuanshao and Gan Ning of Echigo Kingdom.
In fact, Uesugi Takata also felt uneasy about the Port of Kobe. He could even feel complex emotions such as fear, disgust, hatred and envy in the eyes of the residents of the Port of Kobe, but it was just a look, and the other party did not have any hostile actions. Uesugi
When the army forcibly requisitioned some residential buildings, these residents did not dare to say a word. Instead, they cooperated and gave up their houses, acting like a pug, as if they were afraid that they would be dissatisfied.
Just in case, Uesugi Takata asked a thousand-man team to be stationed outside the port to defend the port, and sent a large number of spies to conduct reconnaissance around the port, especially the fish main city, which was the focus of reconnaissance.
Night fell quickly. Amidst the gentle sound of the waves, the night became even more quiet and peaceful. At this time, except for the patrolling and defensive troops, most of the Uesugi army had fallen asleep. The battleships were also lined up and the formation was docked near the port.
, except for some lighting boats with special lanterns docked around, there are only those patrol boats that are patrolling around, either bright or dark.
Just when Uesugi Takata was about to enjoy the so-called beauties sent by the villagers, the warning arrow suddenly came to mind, and even the soldiers shouted loudly: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!!"
Takata Uesugi suddenly rushed out of the hatch and jumped onto the deck quickly. Looking up, many lights suddenly appeared on the dark sea in the distance, rushing towards his fleet very quickly. Some patrol boats wanted to
When he was about to stop him, he was hit by a rocket. Screams and yells suddenly sounded on the sea.
"The enemy wants to burn the ship!" Uesugi Takata immediately asked people to blow the bugle, and the exciting bugle sound spread far into the night, waking up the fleet that was still sleeping. A burst of busyness began, representing various
Information signals were also hung up, allowing the generals in each formation to quickly learn about the situation on their side. Some generals with quick hands and feet had already organized small and light ships to clear the road, while large battleships
The ship has also begun to weigh anchor and prepare to leave the port.
The two mobile fleets on guard at the periphery had already arrived at the scene of the incident. There were rumbling sounds. From time to time, enemy fireships were sunk. Even the fireships that passed through the interception were followed by the main ships.
The light and small warships were intercepted, and although they perished together many times, the enemy was not allowed to rush to the docking place of the ships.
As long as he persisted for a while and waited for his side's warships to leave the port, the enemy's sneak attack could only end in failure. Uesugi Takata felt a little relieved and looked in the direction of the supply fleet, seeing that what was being fired there was safe.
After the red signal, I felt calm.
"It seems that the enemy does not have accurate information about his fleet!" Uesugi Takata just thought this, and suddenly there was a rumble in the direction of Kobe Port. In less than a moment, a colorful missile exploded in the sky above Kobe Port.
Fireworks bombs are bright and eye-catching, and their color is bright red. This is a signal for help, and it is also a signal for help in extremely critical situations!
Before Uesugi Takata issued any orders, an earth-shaking loud noise suddenly came over. The seawater was pushed by the air waves, setting off waves several feet high. Many ships were shaken left and right, and even the Mitsuya Leaf
Both Megumi and Hayashihara's ship felt a violent shaking. It can be seen how violent the explosion was. The enemy attacked the supply ship!
