In panic defeat.

Without the leadership of Nagao Kagetora, they would be completely crushed by the iron hooves of the Xiayue Yangbei people!

Similarly, this is the first time in Axue's two lifetimes as a human that he has the power to dominate others.

military power.

That is the great power of commanding and leading the troops!

What was my senior brother thinking at this moment when he returned to secular life in his previous life and led these soldiers to the battlefield?

"Ever since the day I returned to secular life at Linquan Temple, Senior Brother Jinghu Gong has made a promise with me to restore peace and order to the entire Echigo Kingdom!"

Axue took a deep breath and said loudly.

"We planted sweet potatoes! We improved the paddy fields! In just one year, we solved the famine problem in Echigo Province! We made sure all the people in Kasugayama Castle had enough to eat! Everything is moving towards a beautiful and happy future!"

"But the people of Echigo and the North are ruthless! They can't bear to see the people of Echigo happy and healthy! Everyone is laughing and talking! And yet, on the day of the annual meeting, they sent people to kill the Buddhist martial god Nagao Kagetora!"

"Now my brother has been tragically murdered by the thieves! Although I killed Kuroda Hidetada on the spot, it still cannot relieve the hatred in my heart!"

Axue pulled out the sutra pill from her waist, held up the evil-destroying Buddhist sword and said angrily.

"Now! I swear in the name of the Five Swords of the World, Sujumaru Tsuneji!"

"From now on, evil will no longer be able to escape my sight. Let all evil and treachery in the world fear my Buddha's light! And let those evil spirits and demons who live in the darkness of the night have nowhere to hide!"

"Now I have brought back the promise I made! I will carry on my brother's legacy, avenge the people of Yueyangbei, and completely save this country!"

The silver-haired general raised his sword and turned his horse's head, his eyes burning with dark flames staring directly at all the soldiers behind him!

"So, what's your answer?"

The calm voice was like a sharp sword finally unsheathed, cutting through the hearts of everyone present with a clanging sound.

The soldiers just opened their mouths, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

"Now, I will share this heaven-sent Buddha light with you—"

The young prime minister in black raised the evil-destroying Buddhist sword and pointed it at the castle tower of Kasugayama Castle.

"In this beautiful Kasugayama Castle, lies the departed spirit of Lord Kagetora. He now silently watches your battle. Are you willing to submit to the former head of the Nagao family in a different way and fight alongside this Buddhist martial god?"

All the soldiers felt their hearts surging at this moment.

It was as if an illusion, they all saw it.

Seeing the young man with flowing silver hair, the soul of Nagao Kagetora appeared behind him.

The Buddhist martial god had a smile on his face, tacitly approving of all the choices made by the black-robed prime minister.

All the soldiers silently grasped the samurai swords at their waists. There was no extra word, only the sound of swords being drawn from their sheaths!

No one could believe what they saw. The soldiers who were still terrified before—

At this moment, everyone pursed their lips coldly, said nothing, and drew their swords with a solemn look on their faces.

This is the power of faith.

They have completely responded to Axue's question with their actions.

“——Let’s go!!!”

Axue turned her horse around and took the lead to rush out of Kasugayama Castle!

And behind him, there were thousands of troops following him!

At that moment, the earth shook!

Chapter 2600: The Mystery of Axue's Life ( words)

"You mean...Axue was appointed as the general and led the Echigo army to Tochio Castle?"

After listening to Yamamoto Kansuke's report, Takeda Shingen, who was holding a pen and dipping it in ink at the desk, paused slightly.

"Following the death of Nagao Kagetora, I am deeply concerned about the safety of the young master."

The one-eyed military advisor expressed his concerns.

The Echigo Kingdom used its fists to speak, and when Nagao Tamekage was alive, everyone respected him.

However, the people of Shimoe-Yohoku did not submit to Nagao Harukage at all. They rebelled the day they heard that Nagao Tamekage had died suddenly.

But with Kuroda Hidetada's tip-off, the rebellion seemed to be quelled and everything was safe and sound.

But what is its real purpose?

It was simply because she had heard of the reputation of Nagao Kagetora, the Buddhist war god. Although she had never fought in a battle, the prerequisite for a successful rebellion was that the Nagao family must be in chaos.

Nagao Kagetora successfully inherited the family headship, which was inconsistent with the plan of Shimogoshi Yangbeishu.

So when Kuroda Hidetada assassinated Nagao Kagetora, the entire Kasugayama Castle was in chaos, and the Shimogoshi Yangbei group only then revealed their true strength!

"It's rumored that the rebel army has exceeded 10,000 people! Young Master Axue is a good material for governing the country! But he is not a good material for fighting in the battlefield!"

Yamamoto Kansuke's face was full of worry.

After all, the Xiayue Yangbei people are coming with great force this time. Even if Nagao Kagetora is still alive, he would probably have to avoid their attack and retreat.

"So what you're saying is..."

Takeda Shingen simply asked Yamamoto Kansuke this.

"Should we lead reinforcements to help? Haha, the friendship between our Kai and Echigo provinces isn't that bad, right?"

This is inevitable.

Kai and Echigo had never established diplomatic relations, and the trade relationship between the two countries only progressed due to the hard work of Nagao Kagetora and Ayuki.

Now that Nagao Kagetora is dead, Axue has lost his political backing. Nagao Harukage and his group of old ministers will naturally declare war on Kai Province the next moment.

pity.

Now the rebellion of the people of Xiayueyangbei is enough to give these guys a hard time.

"But, if the young master dies on the battlefield—!"

Yamamoto Kansuke's panicked expression eventually caused Takeda Shingen to frown.

"When did I say he was the young master of my Takeda family?!"

The Tiger of Kai said coldly.

"Now, while Echigo is weakened, we should hasten our invasion of Shinano! Conquer the stubbornly defended Northern Shinano in one fell swoop! This is the art of war, known as cutting off the source of the firewood!"

Yamamoto Kansuke realized that the head of the Takeda family was angry, so he shook his head in disappointment and retreated on his own.

After all, this one-eyed military advisor has been to Kasugayama Castle many times and stayed by Axue's side all the time. He deeply understands that this young master abandoned by the Takeda family is a wise leader that is hard to come by in a lifetime!

If the Takeda father and son could recognize each other and unify the power of Echigo and Kai, they would surely be able to end this chaotic Warring States period!

But according to this development, it seems that Echigo Province is about to fall into the hands of thieves!

After Yamamoto Kansuke left, Takeda Shingen was silent for a long time, then walked into the secret room in the room and lifted a black cloth.

It was a truly beautiful portrait.

The woman depicted in the portrait is none other than Takeda Shingen's wife, Uesugi Aiko, who died in childbirth.

"...Aiko, am I still the same incompetent father I was back then?"

Takeda Shingen stroked the portrait with his fingers, looked at the beautiful smile and sighed deeply.

"I have expelled my father from the country, but I cannot reconcile our torn apart family. My dear son, I..."

The Tiger of Kai had a look of pain on his face.

It was as if I was recalling the snowstorm night more than ten years ago when Uesugi Aiko died in childbirth.

The miserable fate and the miserable situation at that time, the helpless and desperate Takeda Katsushiro, are they still the same now as they were back then?

"——Axue will never die on the battlefield. I will save him in another way!"

Takeda Shingen seemed to have made up his mind, and finally he said coldly to the shadows:

"Chiyome, come out!"

Following the call from the Takeda family head, the thick shadows in the secret room suddenly began to shake like running water.

Almost in an instant, the oil lamp cast a shadow as rough as a giant snake.

A beautiful black-haired girl in a pure white shrine maiden costume appeared out of nowhere next to Takeda Shingen.

"My lord, what is your command?"

The witch pursed her lips tightly.

Her fair skin was covered with red birthmarks like snake scales, as if the tortoise shell binding had stained this beautiful priestess.

Chiyome Mochizuki.

This seemingly fragile beautiful girl is actually the chief ninja of the Takeda family and the Great Snake Miko who commands the Miko Agency!

She was born in the Koga Mochizuki clan and is a famous ninja of the Koga clan!

What's even more terrifying is that Chiyome Mochizuki is from a cursed clan!

The ancestor of this shrine maiden, Koga Saburo, was cursed by the Yamata-no-Orochi, and this curse, like the bloodline of a monster, will always be passed down in the Mochizuki clan.

It can be said that Chiyome Mochizuki is a Koga-ryu ninja who masters sorcery!

"You must immediately infiltrate the Shimoetsu Yangbei group in Echigo Province and try to break them apart."

Mochizuki Chiyome did not object to Takeda Shingen's request, but just nodded slightly.

Sneaking into the Lower Yueyangbei may sound difficult, but Chiyome Mochizuki is the Great Snake Miko who commands the Miko Agency.

The Takeda family ninjas are very different from the ninjas of other countries.

Ninjas in other countries are basically all male, and there are basically no female ninjas.

A mechanical ninja like Kato Danzo is even more of a fantasy.

But the Takeda ninjas are different.

Because of the war, there are a large number of orphans in Kai Province.

The Takeda family would select beautiful girls from among them and train them to perform as wandering dancers, occasionally offering themselves to men.

That is, the [Witch].

Especially the shrine maiden organization led by Chiyome Mochizuki, each of them is a shrine maiden who is proficient in various assassination techniques.

Takeda Shingen entrusted the mission of training female ninjas entirely to Mochizuki Chiyome.

These girls are not only able to master some of the Koga-ryu's ninjutsu, but also have special ninjutsu against men.

That is the sexual intercourse technique that can hypnotize the opponent in bed.

As long as Chiyome Mochizuki leads a group of shrine maidens to perform in the Shimoetsu area, the Shimoetsu Yangbei people will not be able to stop them from infiltrating.

"My lord, do you want the people of Xiayueyangbei to cease to exist?"

Mochizuki Chiyome's eyes turned cold and she asked Takeda Shingen what he thought.

The Xiayue Yangbei group, which has tens of thousands of rebels, is ultimately an alliance of nobles formed by a few leaders.

As long as Chiyome Mochizuki's shrine maiden agency can bewitch some of the key figures, the alliance of Xia Yue Yang Bei will quickly fall apart.

However, such infiltration requires a very long time. To deal with the aggressive Xia Yue Yang Bei people, it is easier to use assassination.

"No, I just need you to destroy one thing."

Takeda Shingen shook his head. Facing Mochizuki Chiyome's puzzled gaze, the Tiger of Kai took out a family tree and spoke calmly.

"The reason why the Shimogoshi Yangbei people were able to launch a rebellion was that they adopted a stepson for the Uesugi family. This way, the Echigo guardian Uesugi family has a family heir from then on."

"My Lord, what do you mean...?"
