Every time I hear Akechi Mitsuhide talk about truth with dignity and dignity, I feel an indescribable feeling, just like listening to Taka-chan talk about benevolence, justice and morality.
Yiyin shook his head and said.
"Let's go. I've finished reading everything I need to see. It's time for me to go down the mountain and take a walk."
Akechi Mitsuhide asked.
“Where does the saint want to go?”
Yiyin sneered.
"Let's go to Diancheng and have a look.
Hideyoshi Ichijo seemed to be respectful in withdrawing from Fushimi Castle, but he was in every possible way evasive about the ownership of Yodo Castle.
I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with her anymore, so I'm going to take back Yodo Castle today, and I'll leave this western gate of Kyoto to Fujitaka's care."
Hosokawa Fujitaka raised his head with great joy.
Yodo Castle is the hub of the Yodogawa River. If the Izumi Hosokawa family controls this place, and the Katsuryuji Castle that controls the Katsura River behind them, they can truly control the water transportation lifeline of the west side of Kyoto, and the benefits will be huge.
In fact, Yodo Castle was originally a stronghold established by the Hosokawa family, which was built fifty or sixty years ago when the power of the Hatakeyama clan was at its peak.
Hosokawa Fujitaka has always wanted the Izumi-Hosokawa family to replace the Hosokawa clan. Naturally, he also coveted Yodo Castle and other clan's old places. Today, he got his wish.
But apart from being happy, Hosokawa Fujitaka also asked curiously.
"Dian City is an important town, easy to defend but difficult to attack. The saint wants to take Dian City, but he has laid an ambush in advance?"
Yiyin chuckled.
"I will enter Yodo City today, and I would like to see if the troops Hideyoshi has placed in Yodo City dare to refuse to open the city gate."
Yodo Castle is not far from Ishikimizu Hachimangu Shrine. This time, Ashikaga Yoshiaki's sacrifice was actually carried out by the men and horses placed by Ichijo Hideyoshi in Yodo Castle to investigate and protect it.
Now Otokoyama was flattened three feet by a thunderstorm, Ishikimizu Hachimangu Shrine was reduced to ashes, the top officials of the shogunate were stewed, and the Yodo Castle escorts probably suffered heavy losses and were still in shock.
Yiyin went over to ask for the city at this moment. How many people in Diancheng who were frightened to death had the guts to turn away the saint?
Even if the guarding general was loyal to Ichijo Hideyoshi and was loyal to his duty and refused to open the door, the morale of the soldiers would have been frightened to death.
In the troubled times for hundreds of years, it is as common as eating and drinking. If the defender of Yodo City is unaware of what is going on, he may be beheaded by his subordinates.
To take a step back, even if everyone in Yodo Castle is loyal to Ichijo Hideyoshi and refuses to give up Yodo Castle, Yoshigan will not be afraid.
Although the cooling time of Tianjuan Hongyan is as long as one year, the use time is a full twenty-four hours.
The time of use has not yet expired, and it is still easy for Yiyin, the manipulative man, to scare the ancients.
Docheng is located at the intersection of three rivers. It rains heavily all day and night. Do you want to see if this ancient city can withstand the wrath of the water dragon?
Yiyin was determined in his heart that the worst he could do was to let go of the ancient city, and just let it soak and flood and then build a new city.
Anyway, what he wanted was the advantageous geographical location of Kamemori Yodogawa. It would be best if he could capture the city. If he couldn't capture it, he would not continue to let Ichijo Hideyoshi occupy it. He would simply break up the city and rebuild it again.
The fact was just as Yiyin expected. After his envoy informed Dian City in advance, chaos broke out in the city. When the Holy Driver arrived at Dian City, the city gate was already open.
Shigejiro Kimura knelt down on the roadside dejectedly, watching helplessly as the few Hime samurai brought by Hosokawa Fujitaka casually took down the city defense and drove out the Ichichichi family.
During this process, Kimura Shigetsu dared not speak out in anger, so he could only accept the sage's questioning outside the city cautiously.
Speaking of which, Kimura Shigeharu can be regarded as a general under Ichijo Hideyoshi. He participated in the battles against Shibata Katsuie and Tokugawa Ieyasu successively, and made many military exploits, so he was reused by Ichijo Hideyoshi.
The geographical location of Yodo City is very important, and she was sent here to serve as the castle's representative, which was also her job. However, a thunderstorm at Ishikimizu Hachimangu Shrine ruined all her efforts.
In the face of the power of God, everyone is in danger.
Ishikimizu Hachimangu Shrine was crushed to pieces. It is estimated that no one in the upper echelons of the shogunate was spared. Not even one of the Yodo City troops sent by Kimura Shigetsu to protect them escaped.
The morale of the Yodo City army was already in chaos. Kimura Shigeharu could not suppress it and did not dare to suppress it. He could only follow the crowd to meet the saint, allowing Hosokawa Fujitaka to easily occupy the city.
Yoshigan didn't want to embarrass this general-minded retainer too much. After all, he was counting on Ichijo Hideyoshi to carve out political bargaining chips for him, so he wouldn't touch her for the time being.
Kimura Shigetsu was dismissed with a few words, allowing her and her men to leave with three days of food.
As for what Hideyoshi Ichijo will do with them after they enter Settsu, this has nothing to do with Yoshigan.
This time, Ichijo Hideyoshi and the Mori family teamed up to instigate the high-level officials of the shogunate to act in a big play. Before it even started, Yoshigan used the most vicious method to blow up all the actors.
He used divine power to frighten people's hearts, cut off the interference from the outside, and stabilized people's hearts and political situation for the reform and reform within the Sibo family.
Gigin, who performed miracles at Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine and Ishimizu Hachimangu Shrine successively, has become Bishamonten, the God of War and Wealth, and has planted the seeds of a living god in the hearts of the people of Kinki Kanto.
Kinki Kanto gradually turned into a monolith, which left Hideyoshi with no choice but to turn his attention to the west.
At this time when Yiyin's position cannot be shaken, it is even more important for her to conquer the Shikoku, Kyushu, and Western Kingdom as soon as possible.
What Yoshigan wants is for Ichijo Hideyoshi to be honest, concentrate on the Western Expedition, and stop arbitrarily instigating Shiba's internal affairs for the time being.
He can then concentrate on completing the foundation of Sibo's divine power and lay the solid foundation for the world of Sibo.
———
That night, the inner room of Dincheng Residence Hall.
The candlelight was flickering, and only the four corners of the candle were left in the dim room. Yiyin was a little tired after having been busy for a day. At this time, he was leaning on the pillow, squinting at the wall in front of him.
Akechi Mitsuhide and Hosokawa Fujitaka knelt before him, bowed their heads and confessed their past disobedience to the gods, and repented with their hearts.
The weak candlelight reflected on the wall, casting a shadow rising up into the sky.
The strands of hair passed over Yiyin's inner thighs, making him feel slightly itchy, and two groups of black were printed on the wall, one on the left and one on the right, blending into the black shadow pillars.
Yiyin just emptied his mind and looked at the OIOs on the wall, sometimes uniting and sometimes spreading apart.
For a long time, he took a deep breath, raised his head to look at the beam, clenched and relaxed his hands, and finally exhaled slowly, finally relaxing his nerves that had been tense all day.
Although he seems to be confident, he knows best in his heart that he is not a true god.
No matter how good the plan is, it may fail. If it goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous. How can he not be nervous?
At this time, the two women raised their heads together, and Hosokawa Fujitaka's throat moved slightly. Today she was blessed by God's grace and was baptized.
Mitsuhide Akechi wiped the saliva from the corner of Hosokawa Fujitaka's mouth with his fingers, slowly put it into his mouth and licked it, sharing the remaining benefits of God's grace.
Therefore, being the mother of a god has the benefits of being the mother of a god.
The stability of the Goddess Group far exceeds that of the ordinary Hime Warriors. This is because in this world of female lords, it is difficult to replicate the political relationship between the Saint and the Goddess Mother and establish a solid mutual trust.
Powerful ministers like Hosokawa Fujitaka and Akechi Mitsuhide who like to make trouble behind their backs can easily cause conflicts and conflicts between the lord and his retainers in the samurai system with an unstable power structure.
But within the political system of the Spokane group, it is not a problem.
Since the king and his ministers trust each other, it's best to do it once. If it doesn't work once, then do it again.
In this world of female supremacy, weak men do not have the talent, let alone the physical strength, to complete such a reverse harem relationship.
Only Yoshigan, who comes from a male-dominated world and possesses cheats, can unite his own Hime Warriors in this way and ensure the mutual trust and unity of the Shiba Goddess group.
I have to say that although green tea is shameful, it is useful.
