After hearing Sugatani Katsada's worries, Yoshihiro smiled.
"You just said upholding justice, I'm curious too.
The general of Kantō issued an imperial order that there should be no war in Kantō, and all the martial arts families of the ten nations of Kantō have the obligation to abide by it. Does it matter if I can't leave?
Guanbazhou is the Guanbazhou of the Guanbazhou martial arts family. Every Guanbazhou martial arts family has the responsibility to uphold the great cause of peace in Kanto!
The peacekeeping mechanism being planned by the Kanto Palace is established to maintain the peaceful development of the eight states in Guanzhou.
If someone is really crazy and wants to provoke a war, Odahime, as a senior member of the Standing Council, should take the initiative to initiate the peacekeeping mechanism.
Calling on the samurai families of the Eight Prefectures of Kanto to jointly fight against the traitors is the obligation of all the united frontmen of the Kanto Palace, and it is the responsibility of Oda Hime as a member of the Standing Council, regardless of whether I, Shiba Yoshigan, is in Kanto."
Yiyin now adopts the same attitude towards all matters related to the Kanto Chamber of Commerce: do my best.
By manipulating the three executive members of the Standing Council, he firmly held the veto power and relied on his influence to manipulate politics behind the scenes.
Responsibilities and obligations belong to the entire united front and all Guanbazhou Wu family. If you can divide them up, do it. He doesn't want to take the blame.
The Grand Council of the Kwantung Palace is an autonomous exercise by the United Front, and all military actions are spontaneous actions of the Kwanba Prefecture samurai family and have nothing to do with Yiyin.
Oda Ujiharu and Sugatani Katsada were stunned when they heard this. This Shiba Yoshigan was really different.
Leaders of other companies are afraid that they will be ignored, so they have to grasp everything in order to feel at ease. It is better for him to let loose and ignore it if he can.
How do they know the plight of Yiyin? Is there anything more difficult in the world than going to the countryside to manage the landlords? The Chinese Empire has imperial power but does not go to the countryside. Doesn't the shogun's protective system also abandon the grassroots?
A foreigner from Yiyin, confused and coerced by system tasks, came to the land of Guanbazhou. He wanted to gain the support and influence of the local people. How difficult would it be to do this?
If he was like a stupid young man who had a hand in everything, how could the Guan Bazhou Wu family be so polite to him? Putting your hand in other people's pots to get benefits has always been resented since ancient times.
The most taboo thing about being a leader is losing authority. If the people below you become disobedient, why don't you go down and do it yourself? You will be exhausted!
Yiyin is very clear-headed and realizes three points.
First, don’t think that the people below are idiots, just rely on your own abilities. No matter how capable a person is, he cannot accomplish everything by himself. A hero has three gangs, and he must know how to mobilize the masses.
Second, admit it when you don’t understand it, and be willing to delegate power. If you can’t handle it yourself and still cling to your power, isn’t this asking for trouble for yourself?
Third, don’t have your heart as high as the sky, your life as thin as paper, and always think about leading others. It’s not just rights that are spread out, but also responsibilities and obligations. If a person carries everything by himself, his life will be shortened easily.
Yiyin realized very early that he was just a mediocre person and did not have the ability to transform society and enter modernization.
He has to take care of this and he has to take care of that. The final result is probably that his prestige will be lost, no one will take him seriously, and his words will not count.
Therefore, Yiyin simply doesn't care about anything and only needs a veto power to protect its own interests. But if the United Front wants to continue playing this game called the Grand Council, it depends on Yiyin's face.
Why? Because of the Hokuriku Road trade route.
Although the Kanto Shrine Office is under the management of the Grand Council, the source of the Hokurikudo trade route is in Sakai Port and is run in the hands of Hiroyuki Takada, the head of Shiba Family Town.
Is it because everyone plays under the game rules set by Yiyin because these rules are fun? Nonsense! It’s because you can earn benefits by following the rules!
The so-called naming power, financial power, and military power are all about money and food in the final analysis.
Everyone is rushing to sign up to become a united front group and join the big review, hoping to get extra benefits by playing according to the rules of the game.
Although Yi Bank attributes all rights to the Grand Council, the main financial income of the Kanto Shrine comes from the Hokuriku Road trade route, and the benefits that the Grand Council has the right to distribute come from this.
Therefore, the financial budget of the Kanto Palace next year, how much money can be played, and the amount of money everyone can make all depend on Yoshihiro's face.
Yiyin ignored everything, but he was able to make the Guan Bazhou Wu family flock to the identity of the United Front. Isn't it driven by interests?
Until one day, the game rules of the Kanto Palace were accepted by all martial arts families. The cost of breaking away from these game rules was too high, and no one was willing to leave voluntarily. Yoshiyin truly succeeded.
But now, matters related to me will become his code of conduct. Let the Guan Bazhou martial arts take the initiative to play, play for fun, and mobilize their subjective initiative. This is the fastest way to improve the rules of the game.
Just like Oda Ujiharu was in trouble, her first thought was to seek Yoshigan's protection. But Yoshigan told her, I don't care, you play according to the rules of the game, there is no way you will suffer a loss.
Oda Ujiharu then thought about it and realized that if the peacekeeping mechanism was really functioning, there seemed to be no need for him to worry.
Because she is next year's non-commissioned officer, whoever chooses this time to attack her territory, isn't he afraid that she will use the rules to turn the entire Kanto Palace into her own power to fight back against the enemy?
She herself was not aware of using the power of Lao Zhong, but Yiyin took the initiative to remind her of this. The best way to promote the rules is to let people use the rules.
Yoshigami glanced at the thoughtful Oda clan ruler and ministers, then shifted his gaze to look at Oda Castle at the foot of Hoji Mountain and said.
"As the saying goes, it is better to seek help from others than from yourself.
The Oda family is a famous Hitachi family. Oda Hime lost her home several times, but she was able to miraculously recover the family business. Her mental perseverance is extraordinary.
During the hundreds of years of war in the eight provinces of Guanzhou, I used the imperial sword order to open the Kanto Palace to provide shelter for the Kanto warriors. This also implies that the Kanto warriors spontaneously awakened, longed for peace, and aspired to rebuild order.
Odahime had a rough life, so she must have been deeply touched by the peaceful spirit of the Kanto Shrine.
I believe that as long as all the samurai families in the Kanto Palace work together, the wish to return to peace and prosperity in the eight states of Guanzhou will be realized.
Oda-hime, you asked the wrong person.
You should not ask me for protection, but should participate more in the Grand Council and the Standing Council, that is the right way."
Yoshigan is not lying, he is indeed very optimistic about Oda Shiji.
In the troubled times of the Warring States Period, if an ordinary samurai family failed once, their family fortune would basically be ruined and they would never be able to make a difference. But it was indeed not easy for the Oda family to maintain the situation despite repeated ups and downs.
Although Yiyin never mentioned his own position, these few words were said with awe and dignity, which gave Oda a sense of security.
Oda Ujiharu bowed.
"Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading.
I have long heard that Jin Duodian has benevolence and righteousness in his heart, but today I know that your ambition is a hundred times a thousand times better than that of me vulgar people.
Oda Ujiji hereby swears that he is willing to serve Tsutado-den with all his hard work, and will work hard to achieve peace and prosperity in the eight states of Kankan."
Yiyin smiled slightly, patted the dust on his sleeves, and said.
"Okay, now that we have enjoyed the mountain scenery, let's go back to Oda City first."
"Hi!"
As everyone was about to go down the mountain, Oda Ujiji came closer and asked in a low voice.
"Tsuda-don, I heard that many people are applying to join the United Front recently, even Satake Yoshige and Satomi Yoshihaka are interested.
Can the attendant of Guandong accept these people?"
Yiyin glanced at her and said.
"You shouldn't ask me about this. The authority to grant the United Front already belongs to the Great Council.
As far as I know, Satomi, Satake and other family governors have indeed applied to the Kanto Shifu, but whether they can join in the end depends on the next general vote of the council."
Yoshihiro still adheres to the spirit of keeping my business private and responds directly to Oda Ujiharu's questions.
After the spring review, the power of the United Front surged again, and many famous military figures who were watching were moved. The generosity of Shiba Yiyin exceeded everyone's imagination.
Whether it is within the original Kanto system, the Kanto system that was later usurped by Hojo Ujiyasu, or the new Kanto system of Uesugi Teruatora, the Kanto daimyo are in a driven position.
Although there is also a military review within the Kanto system, it is more about the oppression of the managed by those in power and the sharing of military expenses and labor.
However, the Grand Council and Standing Council system established by Spo Yi Bank is very novel.
He attributed all rights to the Grand Council, which enhanced the voice of the United Front as representatives of various organizations. Although the Standing Council is responsible for specific affairs, the legal basis for governance lies in the Grand Council.
Yi Bank itself does not engage in dictatorship, and the standing board of directors has no intention of centralizing power. It only has the relative right of veto power through the three standing directors.
The United Front members who participated in the Grand Review, as representatives of various companies, formed the highest authority of the Kanto Palace. They also had the opportunity to take turns to serve as non-permanent senior middlemen, further participating in practice and grasping authority.
This approach of taking into account all groups and allowing representatives of all groups to safeguard their own interests is in line with the concept of the classical republic of the Wu family.
Compared with the kind of moral-based control by Hojo Ujiyasu and Uesugi Terutora, Yoshihiro's institutional advantages are obviously too many. Even Satake and Satoshi couldn't help but want to give it a try.
What Oda Ujiharu wanted to ask was not Satomi Yoshihiro, but Satake Yoshigeage who had been suppressing her all these years.
Yiyin didn't say anything comforting, saying, "I will definitely protect you." Instead, he adopted a business-like attitude.
I made a point of saying that all rights belong to the Grand Council and we must act according to the rules.
When he said this, Odaji felt relieved.
As the founder, Shiba Yiyin insists on putting the big review first and not specializing. This is a good thing for all game participants.
Rules are made in the hope that everyone will abide by them. If the rules are only useful to some people, then sooner or later they will become. When you talk about rules, I find it a bit funny.
Oda Ujiharu nodded and said something else.
"His Royal Highness Hojo Ushimasa sent me a letter, mentioning that she also intends to apply to join the United Front."
Yoshigami's body was frozen as he was going down the mountain, and he turned back to look at the anxious Oda Ujiharu.
Seeing that you, a middle-aged woman, have a loyal and honest face, I didn’t expect that you have a lot of thoughts and words. It turned out that you were just waiting here, waiting for me to jump into the trap?
Oda Ujiharu felt guilty when he saw him, he smiled and sweat broke out on his forehead.
The Hojo family and the Echigo army have been losing their minds in recent years. When Hojo Ushimasa suddenly said that he wanted to join the United Front, everyone was confused.
Hojo Umasa asked Oda Ujiharu to help test Shiba Yoshigan. Oda Ujimasa was unwilling, but she couldn't refuse.
The Oda family was surrounded by enemies, so Odaji could only choose the Hojo family as foreign aid, and even sent his daughter as a hostage to show his sincerity.
Now that Hojo Ushimasa asked her to do a small favor, she could only bite the bullet and give it a try.
Yiyin's eyes stayed on her face for five seconds, and big beads of sweat were already dripping from her forehead.
Finally Yiyin sighed and said.
"I've said it before, this is a matter for the big review, I don't care."
After saying that, he continued to go down the mountain. Oda Ujiji behind him breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed.
As long as Shiba Yoshigan does not object, and the Hojo family has a great cause, there are ways to exchange benefits to get enough United Front members to support the Hojo clan's political transition into the United Front order.
The lineup of the Kanto Palace Council is getting more and more exciting.
———
In the Odawara Castle Castle Tower, Hojo Ushimasa and Hojo Genan were sitting in the room opposite each other, having a private conversation.
Hojo Ushimasa said.
"Oda Ujiharu sent someone to send an urgent letter, saying that Tsutado-den does not object to my application to join the United Front, but that I need to go through the formal process of the Grand Council."
Hojo Genan shook his head and said.
"I can't guess what Tsutama's thoughts are either.
He gave up almost all rights on specific affairs, attracted the participation of the Guanbazhou martial arts family, and established this grand review and standing council system.
But even if the Kanto Imperial Palace created a huge momentum for a while, and Tsuta-dono passed away in the future, what reason would the subsequent superintendent of the Shiba family have to seize this inheritance?
What is gained today will be lost in the future, so what’s the point?”
Hojo Genan assisted four generations of Hojo family governors and became a master with old age. In her opinion, Shiba Yoshigan's approach was completely on the wrong track.
It is easy to delegate power but difficult to take it back. Once you let go of many rights, you can never get them back.
The Hojo family's approach is to play it slow and steady.
The first generation of governors opened up the two countries of Izu and Sagami, the second generation of governors opened up Minami Musashi and the Boso Peninsula, and the third generation of governors took over most of Musashi and suppressed the opposition forces on the Boso Peninsula.
Generations of leaders have worked hard to continuously expand the territory of the Hojo family and take root in Kanto. This is the right way to make the family business prosper.
Of course, Shiba Yiyin's method of decentralizing power and distributing wealth can quickly gain the support of the poor people in Kanto. But in the long run, the Shiba family's control over the Kanto Palace will only last for one generation.
Now that Shiba Yigen is dead, what reason does his descendants have to stand high and look down on the powerful military families from various countries with complicated relationships in the Kanto Palace?
Unless, like the emperor's clan that was destroyed by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, Shiba Yoshigan breaks away from the secular world, walks into Shinto, and transforms into a living god.
His descendants may be as talented as the Minamoto Taira, who is the descendant of the Empress of Heaven, and become the bloodline of gods recognized by the martial arts family, suppressing the martial arts families in the world in terms of their status.
Hojo Genan couldn't help laughing as he thought about it, how could this be possible?
Naturally, Hojo Umasa didn't know what Hojo Genan was thinking. Since the death of Hojo Ujiyasu, the pressure on her in the Hojo family has increased dramatically, and her life has been difficult.
