Yu Qiuping did not answer Amano Kyoto's question at that time. He knew Amano Kyoto had already said it was on the point. But he could not explain to Amano Kyoto: He just wanted the Yu Qiu family to gradually lose authority in the future and let the Congress gradually take over the dominant position - even the Congress elected the government brain. This is just a part of his long "Nuwa Plan". As for that plan, it was actually just a blueprint in that side hall, which could not even be called the outline. However, at present, in the chaotic times of the Warring States Period, it is obvious that merchants could take the helm. In the chaos, there must be a dictator who can have strong execution and quick action to protect the family.
On April 17, the second year of Tensuke (1574), the general attack of the Miyo family on Nagatomoto family began. To the surprise of the Miyo family, the attack encountered setbacks at the beginning. The main force of Miyo Changqing encountered a large number of well-armored iron gunners in the mountains north of Tosa, and the losses were considerable. From Toyonaga to Yamada, the Nagatomoto family blocked layers of mountain roads that lasted for more than 40 miles, occupying the dominant terrain and shooting the Miyo army condescendingly.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
In the impression of Sanhao Changqing, our army in Changzong was obviously a beggar army with empty people but poor equipment. However, the troops that appeared in front of him were always well-equipped and equipped with a large number of iron cannons. The series of strategies formulated by Sanhao family were all laid out when they underestimated the combat effectiveness of Changzong's army. They believed that Sanhao family would be able to break through a series of defense lines quickly, so they did not prepare a complete supply line and sufficient supplies. This led to the fact that the Route Army in the Sanhao family had to retreat back to the distant Baidicheng for supply and reorganization, re-lay the supply line, and transport food.
The situation of the Western Route Army and the Eastern Route Army is a little better than that of the Central Route Army - in a sense it is even worse. Neither of them has such great supply pressure, so they do not need to retreat and reorganize after the initial setback. However, the Miyoshi family has not had a new understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Nagatozo family, and therefore suffered heavy losses in a series of local battles. Before Miyoshi Yoshiki could see the Nakamura Imperial Office, they were firmly blocked. And 10
Kawaicun broke through to Anyi City with outstanding command, but was helpless because of the large number of iron cannons in the city. As both fronts were in a deadlock, the long supply line also brought great pressure to the Miyo family. The supply line of the Eastern and Western routes had to pass through the long mountainous land of Tosaku, and it was particularly difficult to replenish. If you want to send a kilogram of rice to the front line, you have to consume at least five or six kilograms of rice on the road.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
"This is the one who sent the Awaji Navy." Looking at the deadlock, Tokawa Ichizumi couldn't help but shook his head in a little disappointed, "I underestimated the enemy."
If the Awaji Navy is here, the supply of the two coastal routes can be carried out through fleets, and the pressure on the supply line will be much lighter. Moreover, with the Awaji Navy, it can also attack many coastal military facilities on Tosa Bay, and even land in the mainland, disintegrating the defense line of Nagatozo's family.
Logically speaking, attacking a country with dense mountainous areas such as Tosa is difficult to move around, but with huge coastlines, the parallel choice of sea 6 is indeed the best choice. However, on the one hand, the Miyoga family underestimated the enemy and believed that as long as the Miyoga family deployed the main force, they could easily defeat the troops of Nagaso-myon Motomi, and there was no need to send a navy; on the other hand, the Miyoga family was worried that the Oda family launched an offensive in Kinki, and the Izumi Kingdom was isolated and helpless, so they wanted to leave the Awaji navy in Kinki as support.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
Now it has been proved that they have made a complete mistake in judgment. The Changzong family did not know where they got so many excellent equipment, so that their combat effectiveness soared. The three-way army without the cooperation of the Navy were blocked by the Changzong army in the rugged and steep mountains and could not make further breakthroughs, but were overwhelmed by the supply line.
The Miyoshi family's underestimation of the enemy also infected the always calm Yoshiki Yoshi. During this period, he did not intensify surveillance of Tosa, but instead devoted more experience to Kinki. Therefore, although a lot of information shows that it seems that Nagazo's Motoko is buying equipment, Yoshiki didn't take it seriously - he knew the embarrassing financial situation of the Nagazo's family. Where can I buy equipment for the entire army? At most, I can buy hundreds of sets of equipment.
When the battle became serious, Yoshihiko Miyoshi immediately activated the ninja agency of the Sanhao family to conduct investigations, and then it was revealed that it was Yuqiu family who produced thousands of sets of equipment and weapons for the Changzong family - this was a huge amount. I didn't expect that the Yuqiu family could make such a great sacrifice for the Changzong family - because the money Changzong family would definitely not be able to afford.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
At this time, June had already entered, and the grain reserves of the Miyoshi family fell to a dangerous level. However, except for the East Route Army that Tokawa had survived, the other two routes could not make any progress. At the same time, news came from Hongan Temple that Oda Nobunaga suppressed Nagashima Ikki with a nearly bloody massacre, and almost flattened the vicinity of Nagashima. Oda Nobunaga, who had completed all this, did not disband the troops, but directly rushed to the west, as if he had the intention of giving up the autumn harvest and attacking the Miyoshi family. In desperation, Miyoshi Nagaki had to announce his retreat and left Tosa hatefully.
·
After learning that the Miyo family finally withdrew, Sakaimachi, where the Congress is located, was immediately in ecstasy. The bosses celebrated each other and held a huge celebration banquet, which was even happier than when Yuqiu family won.
However, after the banquet, those far-sighted bosses immediately found a new problem - how to ensure that the Nagazo I-be family can do what the treaty says. After all, the Yuqiu family is now separated from Tosa and cannot threaten them. Even if the Nagazo I-be Motoki immediately tore up the agreement, they will have no choice.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
So, Imai Sojiri and others immediately contacted Yu Qiuhei, hoping that he could quickly build a powerful naval army to ensure that the Red Leaf Army could cross the sea to Tosa at any time, and supervise the Chief of the Longzong's troops to guarantee the rights of merchants according to the agreement signed before.
Of course, this coincides with Yu Qiuhei's idea. As a legion that guided the Miyo Family, there was no way to compete with the Miyo Family without a single naval army. Yu Qiuhei then discussed with Itami Yasuki and Semineshi Yoshi, and proposed a huge sky-high budget to the Congress for the preparation of the navy. Although the members of the Congress were heartbroken, they still rarely approved the budget without bargaining.
As early as many years ago, Itan Katsuki had arranged for people to cut down the wood suitable for making warships in the mountains and forests east of Hanoi, and air-dry and other treatments. Now, a large amount of wood has been stored in Maple Mountain City, and the drawings and processes used to make Western mast warships have been inspected many times in the Military Industry Department. Everything is ready, and only one port can be used to build a shipyard.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
Yuqiehei originally wanted to build the shipyard in Sakai Port, but it was opposed by the parliament. They were worried that Awaji Mizutan would target Sakai Port's shipyard and thus affect Sakai Port's merchant ships. Until now, Sakai Town merchants still fulfilled their promises that year and handed over part of the income to Miyu Family every year in exchange for the Miyu Family's promise to not attack Sakai Town. However, this time Sakai Town's strong support for Tosako has angered Miyu Family, and Awaji Mizutan's attitude towards Sakai Town has gradually changed. The merchants are very worried that Yuqie's construction of a shipyard at this time will touch the Miyu Family's tolerance limit for Sakai Town, so they strongly oppose this proposal.
At the same time, the construction of Sakaimachi's coastal defense turrets has been in full swing. In order to prevent possible invasion operations of the Akajimachi Navy in the future, this plan was proposed many years ago, and preparations have been carried out for a long time. Many turrets have been built on more than a dozen high grounds beside Sakaimachi port. In theory, more than a dozen cannons can be set, but Yu Qiuping cannons can not even create the number of cannons that can set a cannon on each cannon.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
Although the cannons in the fort are fixed cannons, which are different from field cannons and have low process requirements, it is not easy. Even after the expansion of enrollment, the military industry department already has a large number of people, the production of cannons has not been improved quickly. Idao Yasukami made a suggestion to Yu Qiuping, to purchase some machines from the Southern Barbarians - mainly machines mainly hydraulic boring machines, which can be used to forge cannons. However, Idao Yasukami did not know whether these machines were sold, and even if there were, they did not know where to buy them. Yu Qiuping hired two foreign merchants who came to Sakai Port to help find them. If they could find them, he would buy them for a lot of money, and this matter would be sank to the sea.
By July of the second year of Tianzheng (1574), the Military Industry Department had produced three coastal three-pound guns and one coastal six-pound gun in a crude manner. However, they did not produce field artillery stands, nor did they have complicated processes to reduce weight and reduce diameters. They could not follow the field troops to fight and could only be left in the turret in Sakai Port as a fixed gun. However, the production of six-pound guns was considered an innovation. Although they failed many times in the middle, they also accumulated technical experience for the future production of six-pound guns.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
However, no matter how strong the artillery is, it must be controlled by someone. The 1o coastal defense artillery requires at least 2o gun teams and more logistics personnel. The ownership of this force has a disagreement between the Congress and Yuqiu's family. The Congress insists that the Yuqiu family's troops should be stationed in Sakaimachi, believing that the coastal defense force should be commanded by the Congress. Yuqiu Ping firmly disagrees with letting the Congress have its own troops - otherwise, once this opening is opened, the Congress will recruit more and more troops in the future. In the future, Yuqiu's family and Congress will have conflicts, which is likely to evolve into a civil war. Finally, under Yuqiu Ping's insistence, the Congress finally made concessions and decided that the newly trained troops belong to the Yuqiu family, but the Congress has the right to supervise their behavior.
