Chapter 1356 Family affairs, state affairs and world affairs
The opportunity for Sanada Nobushige to win Higashi Azuma was also because the Umino family, the Umio family, had protected the Umino family for many years and wanted to usurp the name of the Umino family and become a general family.
As a result, Sanada Nobushige interfered, and the old fox of the Umino family chose to believe Sanada Nobushige. As a result, the Habio family suffered a complete defeat, and finally the whole family was killed by Umino Riichi.
Because of the constant disputes between the general leader family and the branch families, after the Ashikaga Shogunate, the tradition of leader families that was popular in the medieval era gradually lost its inheritance and became outdated.
The fact that the Date family can gain favor from the Ashikaga family also means that the Ashikaga family relies on the Date family to suppress the Ou family.
For example, the Nihonmatsu family that was killed by Date Masamune belonged to the Yama branch, and the Osaki Mogami family belonged to the Shiba branch. Speaking of which, they were all members of the Ashikaga family, and they all once cheered for the general leader of the same family.
The Ashikaga shogunate is a clan of successful and defeated clans. Most of the vitality of the center of the shogunate was consumed in the competition between the clans, which is also very sad.
But even so, a general clan is still the easiest blood alliance to establish a relationship among the deceitful Wu family.
Shiba Yiyin had no choice before. He was of little use as the legitimate son of the exterminated sect, and the powerful branch family would not even look at him.
But who would have known that he would become so famous that someone from his family would come to him with a stern face and ask for help.
As long as Yiyin helps, the two parties have established a primary and secondary relationship. Once he obtains the approval of a general clan, he can legitimately ask these relatives to cooperate with him.
The main territory of the Shiba Mune family in Echizen Owari Ryogoku has been usurped by retainers Asakura family and Oda family for many years, and their influence has been completely lost.
Most of the remaining powerful branches are in the Ou area. Although these are unreliable, it is a good thing to at least be able to cheer for the Shiba family in the Ou area and strengthen their momentum.
But help is help, and Yiyin doesn't want to be dragged down by these relatives and have his strength consumed by Ou's fringe area. He just wants to use this to establish his own influence and then stop.
he asked.
"In what name did Honjo Shigenaga and Kaji Kagetsuna enter Ou?"
Yamanaka Yukimori said.
"You have an order not to use the name of the Kanto Palace, so they all use the personal grudges of local samurai families to intervene in Ou disputes.
The four Aizu counties were in a tug of war between the Satake family and the Date family. The Agano River water transport trade route was in turmoil, and a lot of money had been lost.
Especially after the Date family established their advantage, they imposed heavy taxes on traveling caravans to subsidize military expenditures.
The Wu family related to the trade route in Central and Lower Vietnam had long been dissatisfied. This time, Kaji Jinggang took the lead, and everyone took advantage of the slack season after spring plowing to go over and give the Date family a look.
With this lesson learned, I believe that the customs tax cards on the trade route from Agano River to Aizu will be more restrained in the future.
As for Honjo Shibanaga, she actually had some trouble with the Mogami family in the Shonai area.
This banker has a good relationship with the samurai families in the Shonai area, but after the Mogami family took over this place, they have been looking for reasons to purge the local samurai families and eat away at the benefits here.
The Shonai Plain is close to the northern part of the Shimotsu area and is also the outlet of the Mogami River. It has a port and an alluvial plain. It is a big fat piece of land.
Since Honjo Shigenaga received your gift from Shimotsu to Shonai, the trade route has been very profitable, so she is very dissatisfied with the Mogami family's arrogant behavior in the Shonai area.
This time she is willing to send troops to help, and the Mogami family has also expressed goodwill, so the conflicts in the Shonai area should be alleviated a lot."
Yiyin nodded.
He doesn't care how the Xia Yuezhong quarrels with the Ou Wu family for the sake of trade routes. In his eyes, it's all a minor problem.
Ou seems to have a large territory, but he may not be able to defeat those unruly guys in Shigotsu.
Because most of Ou is frozen soil, it cannot cultivate much land, so it does not have enough population. In the agricultural era that lacks fuel, without enough population and food, it is destined to not be strong.
Looking at the map, the name of unifying Ou seems shocking and has the ambition to sweep the world, but in fact it is just a boast and cannot be taken seriously. If you want to develop the potential of the Sendai Plain, you can only wait until industrialization.
Therefore, Yoshigan is not prepared to spend too much energy on Ou. His focus is still on the Kanto Plain, where huge grain output can be achieved through land reclamation and water conservancy construction.
Yamanaka Yukimori continued.
"The three families of Mogami, Osaki, and Satake have expressed their wish to come to see you through Honjo Nogecho and Kaji Keizuna.
Date Masamune seemed to have learned from this painful experience, and wrote to the Kanto Secretariat, saying that he had long admired your prestige and character, and hoped to have the opportunity to see the beauty of the sky."
Yiyin shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"You see, the party who has benefited wants to hang on to me and continue to reap the benefits, and the party who has suffered losses will immediately react and want to get closer to me.
Let me just say that none of the martial arts families like Oyu can save fuel.
The Shiba family only wanted to borrow my light, and the Date family was ready to rebuild old things and use the same deference they showed to General Ashikaga on me.
I'll just disappear and let them settle down on their own.
On the other hand, the Satake family of Hitachi Kingdom can be regarded as a help to my layout in Kanbazhou. I will think about it again and think about whether to give him some courtesy."
While talking, Yi Gin had already put on his clothes, Yamanaka Yukimori respectfully opened the door, and the two of them walked out of the room one after another.
We had some in-depth and simple exchanges indoors, but the sun was already setting outside. It turns out that having good physical strength is a waste of time.
In the distance, the loyal and reliable Kamao clan finally waited for their master to come out, hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and handed over two documents.
"Jin Duoden, the review record of Jinzi Gongzhi, along with the relevant resolution request from Lord Nizi Katsuhisa, has been submitted to the Tongxin Secretariat. Please review it and make your decision.
In addition, the Secrecy Team’s report on the investigation of the near-miss plutonium is an urgent matter.”
Yoshihiro took the two documents, turned around and said helplessly to Yamanaka Yukimori.
"I've had half a day's leisure, and now I have to contend with these troublesome things on the documents."
As he said that, he simply sat on the porch and looked, but the more he looked, the tighter his brows became.
Seeing this, Yamazaka Yukimori asked with concern.
"Your Majesty, I am Jinzhuangjunshangcai's second servant, Yijunjun.
On the side, Kamo's hometown squinted slightly, feeling that Yamanaka Yukimori was so proud of his favor that his words were a bit presumptuous.
It seems that the seeds buried deep in her heart are gradually sprouting. Kamao Shigo is becoming more and more uncomfortable with the matter of guarding the door, but what right does she have to complain?
If you reveal your thoughts, it may make your master suspicious and alienate you, so why bother?
Yoshihiro didn't know that just when he was reading the letter, Yamazaka Yukimori's words caused thousands of thoughts to pass through the heart of Kamao clan.
He focused on the contents of the document and sighed.
"Akechi Mitsuhide had some conflicts with Maeda's interests, and Maeda's interests were cheated again. Huh? Why should I say it again?
Anyway, Mitsuhide Akechi, well, let’s not talk about her, I get a headache when I talk about her. It’s a small matter, so I’ll scold them each a few words later to make them calm down.
However, something big happened in Kyoto. Oda Nobunaga went to Luoyang again and set harsh nine-year terms of imperial rule for the general, restricting the general's actions.
What's more, Oda Nobunaga actually forced the general to recognize her as his royal mother, participate in the shogunate affairs in the name of helping the general, and officially intervene in the shogunate politics."
Hearing that Ashikaga Yoshiaki was unlucky, Yamazaka Yukimori had a smile on his face, but he said it insincerely.
"Your Highness Oda is really bold. Isn't she afraid that being disrespectful to the general will cause the samurai families in the world to be filled with indignation and besiege the Oda family in anger?"
Yoshigami glanced at Yukimori Yamanaka who was gloating about his misfortune. None of the Hime Samurai under his command had a good impression of Ashikaga Yoshiaki.
In particular, the important ministers who admired Yoshigashi were deeply disgusted by Ashikaga Yoshiaki's ruthless means of forcing Yoshigan to become a monk and stay chaste.
At this moment, Yamanaka Yukimori did not applaud openly. Yoshihiro was already brainwashing these people every day, asking them to respect the shogunate.
The Shiba family is loyal to the shogunate, adheres to etiquette, and appeals for justice. We can't let the retainers be a group of rebels who call the general stupid every day, right? We should keep a low profile.
As a result, everyone is now learning to speak in a strange way, sounding like they respect the general, but upon closer consideration, it seems that is not the case.
In response, Yiyin could only shake his head and continue.
"Since the death of my ancestors and the general expelling me from Kyoto, the samurai of the shogunate and the samurai themselves have begun not to take the shogunate seriously. Who among the foreign vassals still cares about the majesty of the shogunate?
Even if the siege of Oda really happened, it would not be a fight for the shogunate, and the shame of the shogun would be a fig leaf for the various daimyo to join forces."
Yamanaka Yukimori nodded and asked.
"Your Majesty, you are going to go back to Jizihao and hold the fou to the temple.
Yiyin scoffed.
"What are you going to do back?
Mr. Kokata was so humiliated by Oda Nobunaga. With her character, I will probably be included in this resentment account. Who dares me to hide in Kanto and watch her being humiliated?
Since we are not on the same road, let's take care of each other and go our own way. If Master Gongfang wants to avenge his shame, you'd better find someone else to help him. I won't go back and cause trouble for her."
Yamanaka Yukimori sneered.
"What a great Ashikaga shogun with a strategic mind and a profound understanding of justice."
Yiyin glanced at her and said.
"Be careful with your words. Although I am just a cheap son-in-law who has broken out of the family, I am still an Ashikaga clan elder after all.
If you don’t want to show dignity to General Ashikaga, you have to worry about my face, think about my reputation from the outside world, and pay attention to your own attitude.”
Although Yamanaka Yukimori disagreed, he still bowed and agreed.
"Yes, Tsudo-don."
Yiyin threw the document to the Pu Sheng clan and said.
"The secretariat drafted a reply to Nizi Shengjiu. I am very touched that she can be considerate of the benevolence and righteousness of the emperor. The law of cutting off a grain of rice is left to the local decision-making.
In addition, tell her that I trust her and let her do things freely and not to be too scrupulous all the time. I know the virtues of those who are close to each other and will understand her difficulties.
I also informed Ishida Mitsunari that I am very satisfied with her decisiveness in implementing the food stamp system and asked her to keep up her efforts and not to slack off.
Although the food stamp system is only a 30% trial in Jinzi Gongrei, documents related to the operation of food stamps and one grain of rice can be sent to Owari and Kanto Shibao in advance, so that various places can make preparations in advance.
As for the interests of Akechi Mitsuhide and Maeda, I will personally write a letter to teach them a lesson, and they should not mention their nonsense in official letters again."
The mayor of Kamao clan respectfully took the document, listened carefully to Yoshiyin's request, and bowed to accept the order.
Yiyin was very satisfied with Nizi Katsuhisa's approach.
One's own personality is a kind of wealth, but also a burden. If the harsh punishment of being chopped off for a grain of rice is implemented by oneself, it will inevitably affect the image of a kind and kind elder.
Therefore, he acquiesced to the approach of joint leadership, and also hinted that Ishida Mitsunari would inform Kanto, and Owari Shiba would follow up, so that he could stay out of the matter and be a benevolent person.
Yoshihiro is not as sharp as Akechi Mitsuhide, and he always thinks about the worst. He has not yet thought of the potential for local laws to encroach on the power of the central government in the future.
As for the main battle between Akechi Mitsuhide and Maeda's interests, even though Nizi Katsuhisa spoke vaguely, Yoshigan could see it at a glance.
Maeda must have been caught by Akechi Mitsuhide, otherwise with her temper, she would never admit defeat so honestly.
Since Yiyin has decided on the strategic direction of keeping a low profile and biding its time, if Maeda's interests are caught by the tail, she can only be blamed for the loss.
But emotionally, Yoshihiro will inevitably hate Akechi Mitsuhide's method of setting traps to deceive others. This bastard doesn't like unity and harmony, and always likes to use weaknesses to force others to follow her will.
This habit is very bad, and Yi Yin himself has many bad memories, and he is deeply affected by it.
So even in this matter, Akechi Mitsuhide's position is more in line with Yiyin's strategic vision, but he still chooses to play fifty-fifty, which is actually to sideline Maeda's interests.uuReading www.uukanshu.com
By doing this, Maeda will be happy to feel that the master's heart is towards him. As for Mitsuhide Akechi, this bastard is already so thick-skinned that even when he stabs him with a dagger, no blood will show, and he doesn't care about the gain or loss of face.
But at the official level, the two men are naturally in harmony with each other and serve the public good. The unity of Shiba's retainers is really touching and should not be laughed at by outsiders.
Yiyin found that he was getting better and better at doing this kind of messy thing. He sat on the porch and took a few deep breaths before he regained his composure.
I don't know if I was tired from the intense fight with Yamanaka Yukimori just now, or if I saw that I was getting better and better at pretending to be confused, it made me sick.
Yoshigan waved his hand to Kamaojigo, who bowed and left, going back to draft the orders given by Yoshigan.
After Kamao clan left, Yoshigin stood up from the porch, hugged Yamanaka Yukimori beside him, and whispered in her ear.
"I'll leave tomorrow."
Yamanaka Yukimori shuddered and raised his head to look at Yoshiyin.
"Your Majesty, are you leaving now?"
Yiyin smiled bitterly.
"I don't know how many pairs of eyes are watching my whereabouts outside now. Coming to Tomi Castle this time is to endorse the cooperation between the Samurai Giri Promotion Association and Kamakura Gozan.
Now that the matter has been resolved, if I stay a few more days, there will be suspicions outside."
Yamanaka Yukimori pursed his lips, bit his lower lip, and whispered.
"My subordinate is stupid. Your Majesty, do you still want to give me some guidance on the strategic details of the Guandong Palace tonight?"
