As long as Shima Katsuo chooses to join the Dozen, Mitsuhide Akechi doesn't need to worry about the rest.
She could just hide behind the scenes and snicker, watching these female monkeys fight to the death for the illusory status of getting married.
I couldn't help but sneer in my heart, it would be better if a few of them really died.
When I think about it, my lord only put me on the list because of my scruples, but these are really my lord's favorite Ji warriors.
Wisdom is as bright as wisdom, but it is also as intense as jealousy.
Dao Shengmeng was the leader of Peking University and the original samurai family, and a party in Nizishan occupied Koriyama Castle, the most important city stronghold of Peking University and the city.
Take advantage of the bird's eye view.
As long as the Dao family is still in Beidahe, conflicts between the two sides will be inevitable.
Even if they don't think about the conflict, the interest groups formed by the Wu family who are attached to them will still scheming for the dominance of Peking University and the territory.
Akechi Mitsuhide just pushed the process faster, raising the hostility between the two sides to a level favored by the lord, further intensifying the conflict.
Once Dao Shengmeng enters the Tongxin Group, the Nizi Mountain Party and the former Peking University Group will have no room for maneuver.
The two sides will inevitably compete fiercely in Peking University, Territory and Tongxinzhong Group to strive for the initiative.
At this point, the Spo family finally has a clear faction position.
A military sect based on the Iga Territory and originate from Yoshigin Hatamoto.
The leader is Maeda Yoshie, followed by Todo Takatora and Otani Yoshitsugi.
Using Koriyama Castle as a base, a party from Nizi Mountain, run by the old Western Kingdom, was gathered.
The leader behind the scenes is Nizi Katsuhisa, but the person on the stage is Tong Xin Zhong Bi Tou Yamazaki Yukimori.
With the former Peking University and the Wu family joining together, the rising Dao Sheng Meng was born.
Because she is weak, Akechi Mitsuhide provides support in order to prevent her from falling behind in the fight between the three families.
Among the three parties, the Samurai Faction is the strongest and has the dominant power in the Iga Territory. Through the Todo family, its influence reaches Omi.
The Nizi Mountain Party and the Dao family are competing against each other in Peking University. Mitsuhide Akechi has territory on both sides, and he is secretly preparing to support Dao to win.
Just because the Dao family is the weakest, I'm afraid she won't be able to withstand it.
Akechi Mitsuhide wished that these three parties were evenly matched and would be beaten out of their wits.
As long as the three parties are at odds with each other, fight secretly, and don't damage the vitality of the Sibo family, this is the best check and balance in her mind.
The Yagyu family, the Fujibayashi family, and the Momochi family reluctantly remained neutral due to their sensitive identities and special positions.
Everyone must pay attention to the Lord, and everyone must restrict each other, so that no one family can dominate.
Perfect.
For the next few days, Yoshigan sat in the castle tower, so tired that he couldn't even lift his wrists.
Reward is just a matter of words, but the land, population, and sphere of influence involved behind it all need to be divided carefully, and all aspects must be considered thoroughly.
Naturally, Akechi Mitsuhide and Nizi Katsuhisa will do these trivial matters, and they can give the samurai family a certificate of security. The certificate of thanks must be confirmed by the master one by one.
Yiyin felt that he had turned into a human-shaped stamp. He listened to a paragraph of names, achievements, and rewards, and then took the paper and drew and stamped it.
The knowledge and behavior of the lower-level warriors is not a big problem. Nizi Katsuhisa and Akechi Mitsuhide focus mainly on the territory distribution of high-level samurai.
All parties have just formed the Spocky Knights, an interest group. It is not easy to compete for power and gain from the beginning and create rifts.
At this time, the main focus is still on unity, dividing the spheres of influence and compromising with each other according to the needs of each family.
The final result.
The military commander faction controlled Iga's Yuye, Minami Iga, and Kitanomi Todo leaders.
Standing in front of the Rokkaku family is the most suitable stage for the Shiba family to perform now.
One party in Nizishan controlled Peking University and the northern part of the country centered on Koriyama City.
It faces Kyoto to the north and Iimori Mountain Castle to the west. This is the direction from which the Shiba family faces the West and even the Western Kingdom.
It is convenient for the Nizi family to absorb the old tribe of the Western Kingdom and reorganize the internal retainer group.
The Dao family controlled large areas of land in Beida and the south.
This place is close to Xingfukuji Temple. Because the Zahe people are concerned about sectarian conflicts, the village has suffered the least loss. It is the place where the former Peking University and the Wu family's influence are best preserved.
Akechi Mitsuhide's territory is in Kita-Iga, and the Shiba Ryosho, which he leads on his behalf, also faces the border of Yamashiro.
She contacted the Mino Toki remnant party and the landless nobles of Kyoto. They were losers in troubled times and lost their family fortunes in the war.
But this does not mean that they are incompetent. Surviving in troubled times also has a lot to do with luck.
Selecting the best among them not only enriches the retainer group, but also brings great prestige to Akechi Mitsuhide.
The icing on the cake is not as good as providing help in times of need. These people are of high character and have blood connections with high-level families.
The foreign affairs of the Shiba family, which Akechi Mitsuhide was responsible for, provided convenience and opened channels.
In this way, the four major forces in Spo each had their own priorities, and for a while everything was peaceful.
It’s just the future, it’s a long time to come.
Yiyin waved his hands helplessly, sighed, and asked.
"How long will it take for each family's rewards to be collected?"
Akechi Mitsuhide replied.
"Soon."
Yiyin rolled his eyes at her, "That's what you said yesterday."
Akechi Mitsuhide covered his mouth and smiled.
"Since the Lord is tired, let's talk about other things and change our minds."
Nizi Shengjiu looked away from the document and looked up at Akechi Mitsuhide with caution.
She never dared to look down upon this woman with a smiling face. She would never make a mistake when she spoke, so she had to be careful when dealing with her.
Yiyin asked casually.
"What happened again?"
Akechi Mitsuhide stretched out two fingers and said.
“Two things, one is the city where the Lord lives.
The Shiba family now has a stable territory, and the Lord also needs to choose his own city to live in. It is not convenient to have been living in the Nizi family's territory."
Nizi Shengjiu frowned slightly.
Akechi Mitsuhide is not a woman, so what can he say?
Everything that Nizi's family has now is given by His Highness. His Highness can live there as long as he likes. To use this as an argument seems to be a provocation.
But this matter was indeed a serious matter, and it was not easy for her to refute, but she looked ugly.
Both of them are advisers, and some things can be revealed at a glance.
The Nizi family's territory is a foreign domain that was separated from the Shiba family by Yoshigan, so it is really not good to stay there all the time.
But only a few days later, Akechi Mitsuhide mentioned this matter. The more important reason was that he did not want the master to get too close to the Nizi Mountain Party.
As the saying goes, those who are near water and towers get the moon first. The longer you stay, the closer you will naturally become.
Nizi Shengjiu understood it immediately and couldn't help but sneer.
Everyone in the family probably understood the master's intention to marry into his wife. Akechi Mitsuhide's move was not a surprise.
It's just a pity that Yukimori Yamazaka is a writer with the same heart, and it is his bounden duty to guard the Lord.
Should we be close or should we be close? What can you do to me?
Yiyin nodded.
"That makes sense. You can think about it for me later on, which city is suitable for me to live in. Is there one more thing?"
Akechi Mitsuhide glanced at Nizi Katsuhisa with a smile, which made her heart beat faster and she had an ominous premonition.
"Your Majesty, you value the island's victory and fierceness and have nothing to repay. I am willing to join the people of the same mind to serve the Lord and do the work of dogs and horses."
Nizi Shengjiu was stunned for a long time, his eyes were cold and stern.
