The two of them are determined to win the land of Minami Omi, and Yoshigan does not want to quarrel with them over this, and is already willing to give in.
If the Kamao family made it clear that they would side with the Shiba family. If the land of Minami Omi changes ownership in the future, will her family follow the Shiba family or be loyal to the new owner?
Fortunately for Asai Nagamasa, Oda Nobunaga had a surly temper, and he would definitely retaliate.
There is already a Maeda Toshiie who has two boats, and Oda Nobunaga will never allow the second Maeda Toshiie to appear.
Pu Sheng Xianxiu also hesitated. She glanced at the Pu Sheng clan next to her, bowed and said.
"I also ask the imperial office to be merciful and point out a clear path for the Pu Sheng family."
Pu Sheng Xianxiu is not from the Pu Sheng clan. As a family governor, she has to consider the future of the whole family.
But just now she had said too much and almost said that she would join Shiba Yoshibank. Now that she heard that the Shiba family would not participate in the competition for the land of Minami Omi, she felt unsure.
The Kamao family has been rooted in the land of Minami Omi for generations. Kamao Kenhide is unwilling to change his title to a different place, so he can only make a living with the new lord of Minami Omi.
But what I just said has been said out loud, and it’s hard to say it back now, so I might as well ask for a recommendation from Shiba Yoshigan. I think considering the reputation of the Kamao clan, Shiba Yoshigan won’t embarrass her too much.
Of course Yiyin understood what she was thinking, and couldn't help but shake his head, sighing that this was also an old fox, and he was tactful and sophisticated.
He thought for a while and asked.
"Do you think, if I don't get involved in the dispute over Minami-Omi, who would have the upper hand between His Highness Oda and His Highness Asai?"
In fact, Yiyin has no idea. Instead of talking nonsense, it is better to ask the local Xianxiu Pu Sheng and learn from her ideas.
Pu Shengxianxiu said solemnly.
"In my personal opinion, His Highness Oda is more likely to become the Lord of Minami Omi."
Yoshigan's heart sank when he heard this. The Oda family already had a reputation of 1.4 million koku. If Oda Nobunaga were to swallow Minami Omi again, it would be two million koku.
South Omi and to the west is Yamashiro Country, where Kyoto is located. It feels really bad to have a big name with two million koku next to you who can go to Kyoto at any time.
Yoshihiro still hopes Asai Nagamasa can compete with her. After all, the Oda family is a foreigner and is not familiar with Omi country. Why does Kamao Kenhide think so highly of Oda Nobunaga?
Yiyin asked.
"His Royal Highness Asai is also young and promising, can't you compete?"
Pu Shengxianxiu said.
"Everything that Yutai doesn't know.
The dispute between the north and the south of Omi Country has been going on for a long time. When the Kyogoku family was prosperous, they had been fighting with the Rokkaku family for many years. After the Kyogoku family declined, the Asai family simply took over the Kyogoku family's banner.
The northern and southern Omi samurai families have been at odds for more than hundreds of years, and the grievances between the families are too deep.
During the Norada War, the Asai family was weak, but they still received support from the Kitaomi family and tried their best to block the Rokkaku family's northern expedition.
In the same way, it is difficult to accept that the land of Minami Omi is ruled by the Kita Omi samurai family. His Majesty Asai is brave, but I think this matter is too difficult."
Yoshigan nodded, he was a participant in the Noragada battle.
At the time when Todo Tora was high, the Kitaomi samurai family brought their own dry food to help the Asai family fight the war. Kamao Kenhide was right when he said that there was too much discord between the north and south Omi, and Asai Nagamasa could not control the south Omi.
Pu Shengxianxiu continued.
"Moreover, His Highness Oda Nobunaga has already taken action against Minami Omi."
Yiyin frowned.
"What did she do?"
Pu Shengxianxiu smiled bitterly.
"The Kitaise samurai family, Seki Nobumori and Kobe Gumori, who surrendered to the Oda family, have long been married to the Kamao family, and their husbands are all my younger brothers.
They have written several times, acting as lobbyists for the Oda family, hoping that I would defect to His Highness Oda.
As far as I know, not only my Kamao family, but also the Goto family, the Shinto family and other famous families in Minami-Omi are all overtly and covertly attracted by the Oda family.
And the ones that His Highness Oda exerts the greatest efforts to win over are the Koga people."
Yiyin thought.
"Jiahe Zhong...she wants to recruit Jiahe Zhong?"
Pu Shengxianxiu said with a serious face.
"Koka County is a mountainous area. The Rokkaku family was punished by the Ashikaga Shogun several times and the family governor was defeated. They all fled to Koka County for temporary refuge. Twenty-one of the fifty-three families in Koka are Rokkaku retainers.
It's just that Koka County has always been autonomous from the county and is not subject to the military and food services of the Rokkaku family, which makes the Rokkaku retainers group very dissatisfied.
Since the turmoil at Kannonji Temple, the Rokkaku clan was established. The Rokkaku retainers group has been trying to include the Koga clan in the army and pay taxes, and the two sides have been unhappy.
Because of the existence of the Rokkaku clan's purpose, Rokkaku Yoshiharu was unable to check the Rokkaku retainers. This resulted in her being unable to protect the Koga clan, who had already alienated themselves from the Rokkaku family.
His Highness Oda sent people to Koka County to pay a lot of money to win the surrender of the Koka people. Now the Rokkaku family is in danger due to internal and external troubles.
Most of the Koga people will have thoughts of leaving and seeking refuge with His Highness Oda. As soon as the Koga people leave, the minds of the Gotou family and the Shinto family will also be shaken.
The day when the Rokkaku family will fall apart is just around the corner."
