1531 - 1533, Kozuke province...

The enemy attack incessantly. With supplies running short and most of the army either dead or wounded, the brave Samurai of the Uesugi clan fight on...

Battle after battle...


Vastly outnumbered, they defy all odds...


Finally in the Spring of 1533, the ronin attack in full force... The great Lord fights until the bitter end...


But defeat is inevitable...


RIP.


Notes: Non stop aggression!

In Kozuke, apart from the central hill there is another one in the right of the defender as an alternative (with a forest for archer cover).

A promising start; we wait on our toes for more (heads for the soup) Lord Asai.

I actually managed a Hojo ceasfire, but the rebels wouldn't let up. I also went for Echigo and won it, but made the mistake of leaving a garrison in Kozuke (which in hindsight I probably should have abandoned).
