Early the next morning, a group of more than 20 horses from the Kira family took Shima Sauchi out of Shima City. They remembered that before leaving, Shima Tomo had taken the trouble to remind Shima Sauchi what to pay attention to when going out. In the end, they were still worried and sent two Shima family trees.
The children of the Dai family followed him. The relationship between father and son was indeed very good, much stronger than that of many Wu families.
However, looking at these two guys who were only fifteen or sixteen years old and had just entered the original server, looking at him with innocent smiles, Kira Mansomaru felt that the Shima family was indeed unreliable.
The cottage earthen building is not much better, not to mention the leakage of wind everywhere. How can it withstand enemies like this? No wonder Shima Sakon has been unknown in his youth.
As the actual controller of the Yamato Kingdom, Kofukuji Temple has power spread throughout the territory, but as a temple, what he can manage is very limited. In addition to controlling the Kasuga Shrine and Honanji Sojo County, the actual control power of the territory is called Yamato.
The four families, the Tsutsui clan, the Ochi clan, the Juichi clan, and the Kaio clan, jointly rule.
During the great chaos of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, local samurai from various places began to form township parties. Just like the Musashi Seven Parties that existed in the Genpei era, samurai groups in various places formed their own township parties based on clan units. Yamato also had its own party members, except
The attitudes of the Tsutsui family, the three Uda generals, and the other families are relatively vague, sometimes swinging left and right, sometimes opposing each other, which also reflects the basic attributes of the Chinese people.
The party members of the Yamato Kingdom include the Tsutsui clan as the center, the Hasegawa party as the center, the Tochi clan as the center, the Hasegawa party, the Ochi clan as the center, the Sanzai party, the Kaio clan as the center, the Nagakawa party, and the Narahara clan as the party.
The Katsura Party was formed in the center, and the Hirata Party was composed of local people such as the Manzai clan, the Bushi clan, and the Takada clan of Hiratazo.
Tenga County to the east of Pingqun County is the birthplace of the Tsutsui family. As a powerful official with real power in Kofukuji Temple, the real rise of the Tsutsui family has happened in the past hundred years. The Tsutsui family claims to be descended from the Fujiwara or Ogami surnames.
They are the descendants of Fujiwara Juntake, one of the four Fujiwara families enshrined by Kasuga Shrine, who moved to Tsutsui-so in Soga-gun when Kasuga Shrine was moved from Kawachi Kuni-Kumioka area, and later called himself the Tsutsui clan.
However, their claims are not recognized by the people of the country. The reason is that the place where their family first made their fortune, the Moriya Tsutsui clan, centered around the Moriya Shrine Daishou Moriya Party, has detailed records and appears as a disciple of Kofukuji Temple.
, among the people of Yamato country, everyone knows the basics, so naturally they know how much his family has.
During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Tsutsui family really became active. In the third year of Toku (1386 AD), the list of Tsutsui Shunkaku who was among the disciples of Kofukuji Temple appeared in the book "The Disciples of Kōfukuji Temple". However, at that time, his family was only one of the leaders of many officials
It was not eye-catching, but he really started to prosper in the first year of the Eternal Year (AD 1429), when the sixth shogun Ashikaga Yoshitsune accepted the visit of Tsutsui Junkaku.
I don’t know if Tsutsui Junkaku was so beautiful that he was spotted by Ashikaga Yoshitsune, who was at the level of the "terrible great devil". In short, in the second year, the shogunate issued an order to lead Kofukuji Temple's Kawagami Customs Acting Officer, and Tsutsui Junkaku took the post.
The disciples of Fukuji Temple served as officials and became the direct subordinates of the shogun. It was during this period that the power of the Tsutsui family began to truly expand.
Later, the Tsutsui clan, who served as the shogunate, joined forces with the Juichi clan, who also belonged to Kofukuji Temple, and fought with the Ochi clan and Kaio clan, who belonged to the Nancha clan. Although they once had the upper hand, they quickly retreated.
Because the Sawa clan and the Akiyama clan from the Nansan counties, both belonging to the Southern Dynasty, joined in succession, the Tsutsui clan and the Juichi clan immediately turned from advantage to disadvantage, and further lost their control over the Nansan counties.
As the main force appointed by the shogunate in Yamato, the performance of the Tsutsui clan was a tragedy. Even with the help of the Juichi clan, they were still beaten to the point of losing their armor and armor. For eleven years, the Tsutsui clan was beaten to the point of losing their armor and armor and fled in embarrassment.
Tsutsui Junkaku's younger brother was wanted to die, and the Tsutsui family's home city was occupied by the Ochi family. It can be said that it was tragic to death.
Later, the shogunate's crusade was dispatched, and Kitahata Manmasa, the main leader of the rebellion in the Southern Dynasty, was killed in the battle. Only then did the Ochi and Kabuo families be completely defeated. From then on, the Yamato Ekyo Rebellion ended, because the Tsutsui family was a tragedy.
, and his benefactor Ashikaga Yoshitaka died in the Kagichi Rebellion. The Tsutsui family lost the support of the shogunate and was soon provoked into civil strife, and fell into a new war because of the dispute over the governor of the Hatakeyama family.
As the leader of the people in the northern part of Yamato, the issue of the governor of the Tsutsui family soon caused many forces in Yamato to get involved, and it fell into a new round of civil strife. By the time the Tsutsui family tried their best to solve the problem of succession of the governor, it had passed.
Twenty years later, two generations of family governors worked hard to restore power to the Tsutsui family.
After successfully appeasing the people of the country, the daughter of the Ochi family married into the Tsutsui family, which marked the reconciliation between the hostile Ochi family. However, some people were happy when they stopped fighting. "Half General" Hosokawa Masamoto felt that Yamato was not harmonious.
It is conducive to the rule, and you are all amiable, so why should I care about it, so I sent Akazawa Chaosuke into Yamato to stir up trouble. The Tsutsui family took the opportunity to eliminate another old enemy, the Furuichi family, and the family business prospered again.
By the time Tsutsui Junaki, the governor of the Tsutsui family, took charge in the 20th year, the power of the Tsutsui family had been expanded to the extreme. After the death of Nagamasa Kizawa, the powerful minister of the Kawachi Kingdom, he seized control of Shinkiyama Castle and actually controlled Yamato.
The main forces in the seven prefectures in the northern part of the country became the nominal leader of the Yamato Kingdom. However, the governor was not very lucky. In April this year, he suffered from acne and had to go to Mount Hiei to live in seclusion. He died of illness before autumn.
.
"The power in Yamato is very complicated. There are many samurai families like the Shima family who are close to the Tsutsui family. It's a pity that Tsutsui Junaki, the first-generation hero, died of illness. His son should be Tsutsui Junkei." Although the Tsutsui family was killed by the family governor,
It was a major blow, but it did not collapse because of the strong support of Tsutsui Junaki's two younger brothers, Tsutsui Junmasa and Cimeiji Junkuni, as well as the support of relatives Juichi clan and Ochi clan, and the prosperity was maintained.
There is still no problem with the status of the temple officials as acting officials.
Before leaving Tenshita County, I heard that there was a war taking place in the three southern counties. The conflict between two of the families, the Akiyama clan and the Zaza clan, was intensified by the three Uda clans. They formed an army in Uta County and Yoshino County and started a riot.
"Aren't the three generals Yu Tuo allies? Why did they suddenly start fighting?"
"I heard that His Highness Kitahata, the Secretary of Ise Province, supported the Akiyama family, and the Sawa family was forced to start a turmoil."
"Hey! It's true! I don't know what these warrior gentlemen are thinking. They fight back and forth all day long..."
"Hush! Someone is coming!" When several villagers saw the twenty-odd riders from the Kira family, they quickly closed their mouths and knelt on the ground.
Seeing this, Kira Manshomaru ordered Yamaoka Zenjiro to go and ask: "Hey, let me ask you, what happened to the three Uda generals you mentioned just now?"
"Master Samurai, are you asking this little guy? I'll tell you now, just tell me!" A gap-toothed old man kept bowing with a grin on his face, then coughed twice and said: "Say
To talk about the three generals of Yutuo! We must first talk about the three counties of Nan..."
