"The powerful local faction in the shogunate will not move.
Because the general believed that the rumor of twin girls was spread by the Izumi-Hosokawa family, our lord father-in-law severely reprimanded Hosokawa Motonsune, Hosokawa Fujitaka and his daughter, and sent them back to Izumi country to reflect.
Mibuchi Haru was also implicated and was ordered to return to the Mibuchi Territory in Kitakawachi. She was not allowed to return to the capital without an order. How much territory does Hatakeyama Gaozai have? Without the cooperation of the Shiba family, would she dare to send troops to seek death?
As for the Shiba family's territory, Maeda's interests will not be touched. As long as she deliberately delays it, Nizi Katsuhisa has no right to start a war.
The news about the Hosokawa Mibuchi family is not smooth, and as time drags on, everything that should happen has already happened."
Saito Rizo sighed.
"Oh, Lord Gongfang, you don't know your loyalty."
As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that she had made a mistake and was calling her master a traitor, so she quickly fell to the ground to apologize.
Akechi Mitsuhide shook his head slightly and said.
"You are right, the general does not distinguish between loyal and evil, and is definitely not a wise king. Therefore, she cannot solve the chaos in the world.
This troubled world needs a truly capable and virtuous person to end it."
Akechi Mitsuhide's words were a bit explicit, making Saito Toshio sweat on his forehead.
Fortunately, she skipped it and continued to answer Saito Rizo's question just now.
"As for you saying that Miyoshi Yoshitsugi has no way to go to Luo Kyoto, in fact, she does not need to do it herself.
How could you have the nerve to do such evil things as tearing up the agreement, marching into Kyoto, and coercing the general? Of course, it was under the guise of someone else.
For example, three good people and three people."
"Miyoshi and three others? Aren't they at odds with Miyoshi Yoshitsugi?"
Akechi Mitsuhide shook his head.
"This time, that time.
The Miyoshi trio originally controlled Settsu and Tamba, and had the support of Sakai Port, a major commercial port, so they became ambitious.
But now the Tanba rebellion is difficult to quell, and the supplies at Sakai Port are difficult to mobilize due to the presence of the neutral faction Miyoshi Yasunaga.
As for Settsu, Takada Yono bought grain on a large scale, and the shogunate came forward to help take the blame. The three good people did not dare to openly rob.
How can they pacify Tanba when they are short of food? Without Tanba, how can they have the confidence to confront Miyoshi Yoshitsugu of Shikoku? Everyone is already being driven to death, what else can't be done?
Miyoshi Choitsu was the leader of the Settsu clan, Miyoshi Masayasu was the leader of the Miyoshi clan before managing the Sakai Port, and Iwanari Tomomichi was a diplomatic officer of Miyoshi Nagakei.
The three of them, as well as the Wu family under their command, are all followers of the Miyoshi family. If they really fall out with the Miyoshi family, they will be helpless duckweeds in troubled times.
If the Three Good Three were at the height of their power, the Wu family under their command would still be united with them for the benefit they obtained. But now that the building is about to collapse, who would be willing to die with them.
The general thought that if Miyoshi and the three of them were forced to a dead end, they would jump over the wall and fall out with Miyoshi Yoshitsugi and start a civil war.
How stupid.
The reason why I cooperated with the general and forced them to death was to wait for them to bow to Miyoshi Yoshitsugi.
The general thought that civil strife in the Miyoshi family was about to break out, so he safely dispatched troops to Minami Omi to tear off a piece of the Rokkaku family.
She also thought that with the Shiba family's military strength in the south, Kyoto's safety would be no problem. But she didn't know what crazy things Maeda, that wild woman, could do for her master.
With me as a shield, she will never send a single soldier to save the general. Anyway, in the future, when the master raises the issue, she will definitely push me and force me to step down.
Why not do it?
I have selectively revealed the information to Honda Masanobu. If she still wants to be reused by Miyoshi Yoshitsugi, she can only follow a strategy and borrow Miyoshi's trio to go to Luo again.
The Miyoshi Trio will be forced to bow to Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, the Miyoshi family will continue to pretend to be in civil strife on the surface, and the military strength of the Miyoshi Trio will secretly gather towards the border of Yamashiro Country.
Arimatsu Nagasaki acted as an internal agent and hid the secrets of Matsunaga Hide, the negotiator with the shogunate, and sent the military force directly to Kyoto.
As long as the three of them entered the capital, Matsuhisa had no choice but to regret everything. In order to save her daughter, she had no choice but to follow them.
I hid behind Honda Masanobu, and Miyoshi Yoshitsugu hid behind Matsunaga Hide. The three Miyoshis were left to do the dirty work, and the dirty water was thrown at them."
Saito Toshizo was heartbroken. This method of killing people without blood must be linked together. As long as one link goes wrong, the general's life will be hard to save.
If the general dies in the chaos in the capital, Miyoshi and the other three will be guilty of treason. Even after Yoshihiro Shiba returned recently, he could not let go of Mitsuhide Akechi, the conspirator behind it.
she asked worriedly.
“Will things go so smoothly?
It is difficult to control the large army entering the capital. If something goes wrong... Lord, this is a terrible thing that will shock the world."
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled and said.
"Don't worry, when the time comes, I will send Fujibayashi Xing to take the middle team to the imperial palace. The people who should be protected will definitely not die."
Saito Rizo glanced at Fujibayashi and nodded slightly. She didn't know that the only person in Akechi Mitsuhide's mind who said he couldn't die was Takada Yukino.
The general and his entire family should all die, but Yukino Takada cannot die. If she dies, Yoshigan Shiba will never forgive Mitsuhide Akechi.
Akechi Mitsuhide will not reveal his trump card now. He will only reveal everything to Saito Rizo and Fujibayashi Anzu when there is no way out.
Saito Rizo thought for a while, shook his head and said.
"Since the Miyoshi trio have surrendered, why would Miyoshi Yoshitsugu continue to use them to attack Kyoto, giving them a bad reputation and driving them into despair.
Will the three good people be obedient?"
Akechi Hikari showed his eyes with a mocking look.
"The prestige of the Miyoshi family in the Miyoshi family is second only to the Miyoshi sisters and the deceased young master Miyoshi Yoshihiro.
Miyoshi Yoshitsugu is just the daughter of Tokawa Issun, who was adopted by the master's family and inherited the family name. Her position is unstable, how dare she let the three Miyoshi return to the master's family at will?
Miyoshi Yoshitsugu and Miyoshi and the other three are all aware of this truth. If they want to come back, they can only come back if they are dirty and no longer famous enough to threaten Miyoshi Yoshitsugu.
The three good men broke the agreement, invaded Kyoto, and did disrespectful things in front of the imperial court. They will be condemned by the martial arts in the world and lose their reputation.
But on the other hand, they sacrificed themselves for the hegemony of the Miyoshi family. Miyoshi Yoshitsugu must also treat them well, otherwise he will make the retainers feel disappointed.
Both sides get what they need, and the three good families are reunited again. This is called the best of both worlds."
Saito Rizo nodded, looking at Mitsuhide Akechi with more and more awe. This Lord had a meticulous understanding of people's hearts, and his vicious thoughts were really terrifying.
she murmured.
"My Lord has calculated every step and I admire him endlessly. But I don't know if God will follow the wishes of man."
The more exquisite the design, the more afraid of accidents. Akechi Mitsuhide calculated things in such detail that once a certain link goes wrong, the whole situation will go out of control.
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled and said nothing.
Losing control? What she wants is losing control. Everyone wants the general to step down alive, so they are afraid that the situation will get out of control.
She is the only one who wants the general to die wholeheartedly. Even if the plan does not get out of control, she will cause it to go out of control and ensure that the general dies in Kyoto.
