Before Shiba Yoshigan expressed his position, Uesugi Teruhu exclaimed first.
"Can't find it? What's going on!"
Sibo Yiyin glanced at her and frowned.
"What's all the fuss about? It's just a piece of rag, just throw it away."
He wanted to reduce big things to small things, and small things were reduced to small things.
Now that Yoshigan carries the sword of Ashikaga Yoshiteru, the flag is of no use to him. Politically, the sword has more appeal.
But others don't see it that way, Teru Uesugi said worriedly.
"Mr. Kenshin, you can't say that. If the imperial flag falls into the hands of the Hojo family and is used for slander, it will damage your reputation."
Yiyin glared at her in annoyance. Didn't he think of this himself? Does he need others to remind him?
The Kamo clan was trying to block an arrow for him, so they fell into disrepute. If they really wanted to be held accountable, wouldn't it be possible for the Kamo clan to commit seppuku?
This young girl was born under his nickname. She personally served as a member of the Yuan Dynasty and was promoted to the position of writing by everyone. She was a first-class confidant and one of his own. Yiyin was reluctant to bear her death, so he repeatedly emphasized the uselessness of the imperial flag.
However, the samurai society attaches great importance to etiquette and appearance, and it is indeed difficult for the Hamo clan to easily pass the test.
Uesugi Teruhora cared about Yoshigan, but he was not helping her. Yoshigan wanted to block her mouth.
He said pretending not to care.
"The battlefield was chaotic at that time, and the Hojo family might not notice a piece of rag. Your Highness Uesugi, please don't rush to a conclusion yet."
Yoshigage's tone was very serious, and Terutora Uesugi suddenly realized that he was protecting his calf, so he simply shut up. But Kamao clan is a smart man, how could he not understand the connection.
How stupid can the Hojo family be? By ignoring such an obvious special flag as the Royal Flag, the Royal Flag is forcibly exonerating itself.
She shouted with tears in her eyes.
"Imperial office, I have neglected my duty! I am willing to commit suicide to wash away your shame!"
After saying that, she drew her sword and turned around to harm herself.
Yiyin had been nervous about her and was thinking wildly, and had been paying attention to her movements. When he saw her drawing her sword, he directly raised his foot and kicked her over.
He was so angry that he pulled the person up and cursed.
"Gamo clan! You can't understand me, can you?"
If I say I lost my imperial flag, I will lose it! Remember your identity! When will it be your turn to make a decision for me!"
After Yoshigami finished speaking, he threw her to the ground, turned around and yelled at Uesugi Teruhora.
"The military situation is urgent. Your Highness Uesugi, please supervise the battle here. I will lead the cavalry to go around north and cross the river!"
Uesugi Teruhora smiled bitterly and nodded. She also understood that her concern for Yuqi just now added fuel to the fire and made her sweetheart angry again.
She said sarcastically.
"Mr. Qianxin, your cavalry is not strong enough. I will give you fifty more cavalry from the Long Tail. Please be more careful when pursuing and take care of your own safety."
Yiyin nodded coldly and went to the back of the formation to assemble his army and prepare to set off. He took two steps, stopped and turned around to curse.
"Kamoji Township! Get here!"
Kamoji was so moved that he kowtowed to the ground, then hurriedly got up and left with Yi Gin.
Uesugi Teruhu shook his head, always feeling that every time he tried to please his sweetheart, he was just flattering someone on the horse's lap, and he rarely succeeded.
She gave a few instructions to Hatamoto beside her, arranged for the Longtails to follow Yoshiyin to attack, and then continued to direct the front line to cross the river.
———
On the northern front, Hojo's defeated troops suffered numerous casualties and finally escaped across the Akiyama River. Yamamanaka Yukimori sent all the troops who still had the strength to fight and crossed the river to continue the pursuit.
The two reserve units of Sanada were the first to go into battle. At this time, they were completely exhausted and were resting on the west bank. The same was true for the Sanada Armored Army, which had long since fallen down from exhaustion.
Showing off Ashikaga Yoshiji to Yamanaka Yukimori, Sanada Nobushige returned to his own formation, finally unable to pretend to be mighty and domineering, and fell to the ground groaning in pain.
She looked at Umino Riichi with tears in her eyes and whimpered.
"Liu Niang, it hurts me so much."
Umino Riichi sneered and said.
"Don't pretend now?"
Sanada Nobushige collapsed into a ball and said.
"No more pretending, who are you pretending to show now?
Did you see how ugly Yamanaka Yumori looked just now? I threw Ashikaga Yoshiji in front of her, were I stupid?
These warriors outside the mountains have always looked down on me. I want to let them know what it means to kill a general and seize the flag! I just deliberately pretended to be in front of her and made her angry to death!
Those sycophants at the Kanto Palace, why do they boast that Yamanaka Yukimori is pure in mind, loyal, and unyielding. He has no other merits, so he can only praise his loyalty?
Damn it, the incompetent Warrior Ji still wants to snatch a man from me, bah!"
Seeing Sanada Nobushige's body was weak and his mouth was unforgiving, Umino Tori shook his head and said.
"It is no easy task for Yamanaka Yukimori to balance the two gangs of Honjo Nobunaga and Kaji Keizuna, unite these samurai families who are not dealing with each other, and unite with the outside world.
On the one hand, the imperial office believes in her loyalty and trusts her very much. On the other hand, the warriors under his command believe that she can bring benefits to them and have a bright future. She is transparent from top to bottom and reaps the benefits. This is a great skill.
You fight without your life, but how many lives do you have to fight for? Not every time you will be as lucky as this time, if you fail once, you will die!
None of the high-ranking martial artists in the Kanto Palace are simple, if you harbor disdainful thoughts, you will be killed by them sooner or later."
Sanada Nobushige sighed and said.
"Liu Niang, I'm so tired that I can't get up. Wouldn't you like to let me show off my dignity? You must boost her ambition, really.
I won’t underestimate them, but don’t always affirm them and deny me? I am your master, and I am the one who rewards you!”
When Umino Ri saw her indignation, his cold expression did not change, and he said a dry sentence.
"The Lord is mighty, and the military fortune is prosperous."
Sanada Nobushige was instantly discouraged.
"Forget it, just go ahead and let Nezu Sadamori and the others do the compliments."
Sanada Nobushige was complaining when Nezu Sadamori's voice suddenly came from afar. The voice reached him before anyone arrived, and he was full of admiration and awe.
"My lord, you are so powerful! You defeated the Hojo army in one battle and captured General Kanto. You are like a god descending from heaven and you are invincible in the world!"
Sanada Nobunaga nodded in appreciation and said to Umino Riichi.
"Learn more! This is called compliments!"
Umino Riichi, a young girl with nothing in common, looked at Sanada Nobushige coldly, with some contempt in his eyes. Sanada Nobushige curled his lips and decided to forgive her.
At this moment, Nezu Zadajin had already led the two of them to walk in front of them and bowed. It was just a bow, and cold sweat was already oozing out from his head. He looked very tired.
Sanada Nobushige said carelessly.
"Okay, I know you're working hard, so stop pretending. I'll give you a security certificate after the war, and the reward is guaranteed to be generous."
Nezu Sadamori looked upright, but his eyes narrowed when he smiled.
"What are you saying, Your Majesty? It is an honor for me to be able to serve you faithfully!"
Sanada Nobunari glanced at her.
"Oh, then there's no need for a reward?"
Nezu Sadamori's expression did not change, and he bowed to the ground and thanked him.
"The Lord has given it to me, and I dare not refuse it."
