Chang Lianlong's viciousness lies in taking advantage of Yixiang Zong's own contradictions to achieve the goal of killing two birds with one stone.
Yiyin secretly sighed, "Awesome."
The eyes of Kojima Town shone brightly, as if they saw their own way to survive. According to Chang Lianlong's method, Takaoka City only needs to face the thousands of troops from Shengxing Temple, and it may not be unable to withstand it.
She looked eagerly at Shiba Yiyin, waiting for him to make a decision.
Just when Yi Gin was about to speak, the Kamo clan came out again and bowed and said.
"Otaisuo, I also have some ideas."
Yiyin smiled.
"you say."
"Hi!
The Imperial Palace went south to join Lord Kawada Nagauchi's army and raided the Zuisen Temple area.
But Gaogang City cannot ignore it, so it is better to release the captured Master Shiwu back to Shengxing Temple.
Tell her that the imperial office will lead troops south to take revenge on the leader of Ruiquan Temple who dared to invade."
Yiyin thought for a while and said.
"good.
When Shengxing Temple got the news that I was going south to attack the Ruiquan Temple leader, they had to report it to the Ni Corps of the Ruiquan Temple leader, otherwise they would not be able to behave in the future.
In this way, the Ni Corps led by Zuiquan Temple will retreat faster and pose less of a threat to Gaogang City.
Moreover, if Katsukoji Sanigen wants to obey Yoriteru Shimama's order again and attack Takaoka Castle, he must also consider whether he can withstand my wrath.
The more miserable the Zuisen Temple leader was, the less likely it was that Shixuan would not cross the Yamada River. She did not dare to bet on whether I would return with an attack and go north to burn and plunder her Anyang Temple leader.
As long as all parties involved in the Ichikura clan hesitated for another ten days or so, and Kaga Ichikō clan returned to Oyama Gobo for rescue, the allied forces of Uesugi Jimho and his two families would also have arrived.
If it is delayed until then, the Yuezhong Yixiang Sect will undoubtedly be defeated."
Pu Sheng clan bowed.
"You are no wiser than the imperial office, this is my advice.
Tell that enlightenment again that you will write a letter to ask the Master Xianru, whether the attack on your base is based on the decree of Ishiyama Honganji Temple.
Was this matter planned secretly by Shimoma Yoriteru and Shichiri Yorizhou, or was it her intention to appear like a master?
After experiencing this disaster, the leaders of Anyang Temple and Zuiquan Temple should no longer care about the destruction of the Yixiangzong Temple in Xinchuan County.
They have too much time to take care of themselves and will definitely blame Yoriteru Shimoma for the series of defeats suffered by Ezhong Ichizong.
If I want to appease your anger and escape the punishment of Master Xian Ru, I can only let Yori Teru, the general in charge of Vietnam and China, take the blame."
Yiyin laughed.
"Okay, Kamohime, very good."
Yoshigan was delighted not only because of the advice offered by Kamao clan for the victory of the war, but also because she helped Yoshigan choose a good way to end the war.
The purpose of fighting a war is to end the war at the most beneficial time and obtain the greatest benefits.
Although the Ryogoku Ichibuki Sect in Hokurikudo had a mobilization force of four to five million koku, they were by no means a match for the Echigo Echichu Noto Three Kingdoms samurai clan.
But what Yoshigan wants is for Hokuriku to be stable so that he can go to the Kanto Plain to siege the city, instead of getting entangled with these religious lunatics in Hokuriku.
With the appeal of Yixiang Zong, even if he defeated Shimoma Yoriteru and Nanari Yorizhou, as long as the master was unconvinced, Yixiang would be punished like a prairie fire, over and over again.
The idea that the Pu Sheng clan came up with was to join forces with Shixuan of Shengxing Temple to work together with Laizhao in the pit to force Master Xianru to bow his head.
Shixuan of Seungheungsa Temple is the granddaughter of the eighth-generation Dharma master. She moved to Tushan Royal Temple and came to Anyangsa Village. She and Zuichuan Temple ruled separately and jointly managed the Yuezhong Yixiang Sect. She was by no means a simple figure.
It has always been said that Shiba Yoshiun is indestructible. But the power of Yoshiun, the leader of Anyangji Temple in Shengxingji Temple, is enough to destroy her ten times.
The spiritual power of faith is troublesome, but the nuns who control it have selfish motives that can be negotiated and bribed.
Shixuan would never stand by and watch the territory he had developed for many years be implicated by Shimo Yoshiro, resulting in the destruction of the temple and the destruction of the Taoist tradition.
Shimo Yoriteru was a person sent by the current generation of Dharma Master Xianru, while the head of Anyang Temple came from the eighth generation of Dharma Master. The two sides were not stirring up trouble in the same pot.
Yiyin dared to assert that Shi Xuan would definitely withdraw from the temple leadership to preserve his strength. However, in order not to be held accountable afterwards, he would also write a letter to Master Xian Ru and pour dirty water on Yori Zhao, the subordinate.
The leader of Ruiquan Temple is a descendant of the fifth generation of Dharma masters, and they may go to Shuben Mountain together. In this case, Yori Zhao will be in big trouble.
Shiba Yoshigan took over the moral question of Ishiyama Honganji Temple, and Mikoto stirred things up internally. Recently, Akechi Mitsuhide and others tried their best, but it became clear that the master may not be willing to continue the quarrel.
Yoshigan Shiba's influence in recent times is far greater than that in Kanto. He is the leader of a powerful local faction in the shogunate and is the imperial office of the shogun. Ishiyama Honganji Temple is within his sphere of influence.
Yoshigan doesn't know yet that Ishiyama Honganji Temple has already invested in the Hokurikudo Trading Road. If he knew about it, he would definitely give Takada Yono a thumbs up.
Zhen and Shiba Yiyin had a falling out, and it seemed that the superior could not bear it. It would be a good idea to put the blame on Yoriteru, the subordinate, and end this chaos.
Therefore, having an affair with Yixiang Zong is risky.
Yoshigan raised his head and thought for a moment. The question now is how far the fight should go. We can't really cripple the Hokurikudo Ichikai clan and force the master to have no way to retreat. The only way is to make a big fuss.
He shook his head, embarrassed.
Haosaka Nagami thought for a while, then stepped out and said.
"At the Imperial Palace, when our army was heading to Hinomiya Castle and Mt. Gobukuro, His Highness Uesugi was afraid of the unrest ahead, so he wrote a letter to Hida Kingdom, asking Governor Ema to send troops to cross the Chinese border to echo our army's actions."
Yiyin nodded.
Ema Terusei? The last time we passed through Echu, Uesugi Teruhu mentioned this person and said he had a close relationship. This time when we enter the Zuisen Temple territory, we can try to contact this person's military strength to help.
The discussion was almost complete, and everyone offered suggestions to supplement the strategy. Yoshigami said to the Noto girls.
"We can't wait for the time. I'd be sorry to bother you all to return overnight and return to Noto."
The Noto samurai headed by Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna kowtowed to the ground and said.
"I am willing to serve the emperor."
After saying that, everyone bowed and left the meeting hall together.
Yiyin said to Kojima Job Town.
"Mr. Kojima, let the enlightenment rest overnight and bring it back to me tomorrow. Just do as Kamou-hime wants and put it back with a scare."
"Hi!"
Kojima smiled from ear to ear.
By following the formulated strategy, the crisis in Takaoka Castle has been resolved. The Kaga army on the southern front will not come, and the Vietnam-China army on the northern front has shrunk, so her life can be considered saved.
Yiyin looked at her appearance and warned.
"Lord Kojima, the war situation is changing rapidly, so don't be careless.
There is no room for failure in Gaogang City. After I leave, you must guard the city carefully to ensure the safety of my retreat."
Kojima's heart trembled, and he bowed in agreement. Seeing that she had listened, Yiyin nodded with satisfaction.
Takaoka Castle cannot be lost. If this place is lost, the land in the middle and lower reaches of the Yamada River and Shogawa River will have no defensive fulcrum, allowing Ichigo Sect to advance and retreat freely.
Yoshigan went south to join forces with Kawada Chouchi, who was raiding Hinomiya Castle. Regardless of whether he could capture Hinomiya Castle, he would abandon the city and cross the river to enter Zuisenji territory.
Without the fulcrum of defense on the southern line, Takaoka Castle on the northern line is even more important, serving as an important guarantee for protecting the old territory of Jinbo behind him.
Moreover, if Yiyin goes to battle unfavorably, he will also need a retreat channel. Without Hinomiya Castle and Takaoka Castle, he will have enemy territory behind him.
The cavalry seems to have great mobility when it penetrates into enemy territory, but in fact it has many restrictions and is very dangerous.
The endurance of horses is far inferior to that of humans. Running long distances requires a lot of energy support, which is simply food and water.
Even if two or three horses were exchanged, they would not be able to carry much food, let alone water. As long as the enemy knew the water source, it would be easy to seize the cavalry's movement route.
Therefore, it has been a difficult problem since ancient times for the cavalry to penetrate deep into enemy territory and carry out large detours.
A large part of the reason why the Mongols were able to do this was because of their horses. Mongolian horses were hard-working and often accompanied mares, using mare's milk to replace part of their supplies. This gave them the capital to travel long distances.
