Uesugi Kenmasa was so sad when he said it, Nagao Tochan shed tears when he heard it.
The Yamauchi Uesugi family has been defeated at the hands of the Uesugi Kensei, and the ruling system of the Kamakura Ashikaga family and the Uesugi family has completely collapsed.
Hojo Ujiyasu took Ashikaga Yoshiji and formed a new Kanto general and Kanto administrative system. There was no longer a place for the Yamauchi Uesugi family to establish itself in Kanto.
Kensei Uesugi could either die quietly outside the Kanto Plain, or find a powerful samurai family name, continue the name of the Uesugi family in the mountains, and take revenge on the Hojo family.
The Uesugi Teruhora she chose was indeed powerful. The Echigo army entered the Kanto Plain with great force, seriously threatening the Hojo family.
At this moment, Ueno, who had abandoned his master, remembered his identity as a retainer of Uesugi in Yamauchi.
Hojo Ujiyasu's extermination of the Ryoesugi family was not the norm for the samurai family. Instead, it was an extreme move out of fear of the Ryoesugi family's influence.
Come to think of it, Hojo Ujiyasu was also regretting it at this time. If she had left some room for the Ryoesugi family, she would not have attracted the hungry wolves of Echigo, leading to today's passive situation.
The Wu Family Group is not a family business of one family, but consists of countless small businesses under the name of one family.
Hojo Ujiyasu could cut off two direct branches of Uesugi with one sword, but he could not cut off two families and accumulated two hundred years of samurai connections.
The heir of Zetsu is the biggest hatred. Now that the name of the Yamauchi Uesugi family has fallen into the hands of Terutora Uesugi, he can use this to leverage the Kanto Plain and add countless troubles to the Hojo family.
Hojo Ujiyasu was willing to treat the new Kanto general Ashikaga Yoshiji kindly, and he also learned from the lessons of the Uesugi family in Yamauchi and did not give foreign invaders a chance to stir up trouble.
Changwei took out a long breath and said.
"I understand, I will be loyal to the new Yamauchi Uesugi family governor and continue to be my loyal minister.
I just ask you to take care of yourself and see the day when the Hojo family’s hegemony dies.”
Uesugi Kenmasa smiled, with a trace of resentment in his smile.
"Don't worry, I will definitely live well. Watching Hojo Ujiyasu's family fortune decline is as painful as mine.
You must follow Terutora Uesugi wholeheartedly, Ashikaga Castle is right under her nose, and she will not tolerate you jumping around.
She may not be able to influence the two countries, Shimoso Hitachi, but she can still control the countries near Ueno Kingdom.
Don't irritate her, she has a bad temper."
"Hi!"
Ashikaga Castle is located to the west of the Ashio Mountains. Although it is included in the territory of Shimono Country, it is actually more closely related to Ueno Country. The best choice for a long tail is to follow Uesugi Teruhora.
Seeing that Nagao was listening to his advice, Uesugi Kenmasa finally felt relieved.
The Nagao family of Ashikaga Castle was one of the few retainers who were loyal to her, and she did not want this family to end in a miserable state.
Terutora Uesugi is coquettish and overbearing, and few people can stop her. This time Nagao has disobeyed her because of Uesugi Kensei, and she must behave well in the future to resolve the knot in her heart.
Otherwise, she will definitely settle the score later.
Thinking of the few people who could persuade Terutora Uesugi, Uesugi Kenmasa felt moved and said to Nagao Tocho.
"Nagaki, have you ever heard of Lord Shiba Kenshin?"
The long tail nodded.
"I know something about Ashikaga Shogun's imperial office and the extraordinary man from the samurai family who revived the family business.
I heard that he is planning to go south with His Highness Teru Uesugi as an envoy to the shogunate to attend the inauguration ceremony of the Kanto Governor at Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine in Kamakura."
Seeing that Nagao was carefully considering her words, Kenmasa Uesugi couldn't help but point at her and laugh.
"You, too, are dishonest sometimes."
Chang Tail smiled awkwardly.
She could be a loyal minister of the Yamauchi Uesugi family, protest against the Uesugi constitutional government, and play a little emotional with Uesugi Teruhora. But she did not want to get involved in the dispute between the Shogun and the Kanto Shogun at all.
The dispute between the Ashikaga Shogun family and the Kamakura Ashikaga family is a dispute between Kanto and Kansai, and it is related to the fundamental interests of the eight states samurai family.
Hojo Ujiyasu's appeal was to seize this point and pursue Uesugi Teruhora as a lackey of the shogunate and the vanguard of Kansai's invasion of Kanto.
This is also an important reason why various companies in the Kanto Plain are lukewarm towards Uesugi Teruhu and hesitate to take sides.
There are many famous families in Kanto and they have a long history. Yoshigan Shiba established the Kanto Servant in Echigo, which reminded them of Minamoto Yoritomo who established the Servant in Kamakura and became the first shogun.
What does Ashikaga Shogun's imperial office return to Kanto and set up a ministerial office? What does it mean to attack the eight states of Kanto and reorganize the imperial people in Kanto?
The Ashikaga Shogunate never really controlled the world. The Ashikaga Shogun was only recognized by the samurai group and was the nominal leader.
At the beginning, the first Ashikaga Shogun Takauji was defeated and fled to Kyushu Island. She gathered the Kansai imperial family in the name of the direct descendant of the Kawachi Genji and the pillar of the samurai family, and fought back to Kyoto.
In other words, the Ashikaga family is not strong enough, and the Ashikaga shogun is purely a knife for dividing pork.
During the establishment of the Ashikaga Shogunate, the largest piece of pork was given to the Kansai imperial family. However, the Kanto region, especially the imperial family of the traditional Kansai eight states, did not receive much benefit.
In order to restrain the Kanto eight states, the Ashikaga shoguns enfeoffed the ten kingdoms of Kanto to the Kamakura Ashikaga family. This formed the Kanto shogun system, which was on the edge of the guardianship system.
With the Kamakura Ashikaga family and the Uesugi family as the core, the ten kingdoms of Kanto were governed by a dual system of Kanto shoguns and Kanto governors.
Except for Kai Kingdom, which is closed in the mountains, most of the Kanto samurai families have been accustomed to playing in this system for two hundred years, until the Hojo family came to disrupt the situation.
Hojo Ujiyasu killed the two Uesugi families, and attracted the new Kanto general Ashikaga Yoshi to form the new Kanto shogun system.
It is against the rules to replace the Uesugi family with the Hojo family as the head of the Kamakura Ashikaga family and as the governor of Kanto.
The society of the Wu family is very hierarchical, with dragons giving birth to dragons, phoenixes giving birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice are responsible for digging holes.
If an Ise girl pretends to be Hojo Saeji, she can replace the Uesugi family and become the second most powerful person in Kanto. Isn't this a mess?
Every famous family in Kanto must also consider their own interests. What if the Xiaowu family below imitates the same example, and their rituals and music are ruined?
But the Hojo family is so good at fighting, and they are neither impatient nor impetuous, so they fight steadily. The Kanto families can't fight, so they can only hold their noses and surrender first, and talk about it later.
At this time, Echigo's Uesugi Terutora made an even more rule-breaking move. She went directly to Luo and approached General Ashikaga in Kyoto to ask for the post of commander in charge of Kanto.
According to the rules, the governor of Kanto must be the governor of the Uesugi family, recognized by the Kanto general, and then succeeded at Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine in Kamakura.
Hojo Ujiyasu broke the rules and forced Ashikaga Yoshiji, the new general, to admit himself.
It was impossible for Terutora Uesugi to get recognition from the Hojo family's puppet Kantō Shogun, so he simply went to Kyoto and asked a bigger boss to recognize him, which broke another layer of rules.
Both sides fought against each other, tearing the Kanto general system to pieces and leaving the military families in the Kanto Plain at a loss as to what to do, which resulted in the current chaotic situation.
