Chapter 284 The chaos in the village of Zong Baikui ()

Taking into account what Kai-hime said, if the Shimazu family joins the Western Army with more than 600,000 koku, it will indeed add a very important bargaining chip to the Western Army. Moreover, Kai-hime also specifically pointed out that it is for Shimazu to

The importance of "seriously helping 30% to fight this battle" is even more important.

The combat effectiveness of the Shimazu family is obvious to all, especially when Yoshihiro Shimazu, the "Ghost Shimazu", can personally participate in the battle. If the combat effectiveness of their soldiers is calculated as twice that of ordinary famous soldiers, it may not be possible.

That's too much.

Of course, the Shimadzu family's total military strength is not large. According to Japan's custom of "two hundred and five thousand shi" (every 10,000 shi can provide 250 soldiers), the Shimadzu family under normal conditions only has 16,000 troops. [Note: Shimazu

The Tsu family territory was greatly reduced after Toyotomi Hideyoshi's "Kyushu Conquest", and part of it was returned after the Korean War, which is currently about 640,000 koku.]

Of course, it is impossible for these 16,000 troops to come out in full force, because not far to the north of the Shimazu family's territory is Kato Kiyomasa's territory. Both sides have to be wary of each other to avoid being robbed. Gao Pragmatic predicts that the Shimadzu family can come out

Six thousand people are working very hard.

Historically, Shimazu Yoshihiro only brought more than 1,600 troops to the Battle of Sekigahara, and was even ridiculed for bringing too few troops - of course, after the war started, he was ridiculed with his record.

His people. Now if Shimazu Yoshihiro can bring an "army" of 6,000 to join the war and fight seriously, he might really be able to bring about a reversal of changes to Ishida Mitsunari's Western Army. After all, both the Eastern and Western armies have a large number of workers.

Goods without effort.

That point of consideration is vague, and next we need to consider another thing: the situation between Yukikan and Baicheng is deteriorating very slowly now, and it even seems to be slower than the retreat in the original history. In this way, the Shimadzu family can make a mistake and send 8,000 troops.

Are you ready?

It must be intentional or not, and of course it is impossible in theory, but the problem is that Gao Pragmatic has not yet learned about the killing of Ijuin Tadong. According to the retreat process in the original history, the issue of sending troops is bad. Because in the original history

Long before Tadashi was killed, a small rebellion broke out in the Shimazu family: the Shouchi Incident.

Why did Shimazu Tadahashi kill Ijuin Tadō? There are different opinions on that incident in history. To sum up, there are only the following reasons:

The first theory is that Ijuin's loyal edifice did not overstep the mark. The Shimazu family's historical material "Shouchi Jinki" records: "Ijuin Toyotomi built a house in Fushimi, which was extremely luxurious and beautiful. The layout was planned to be the residence of the king.

The mansion is within reach. The arrogance and arrogance are getting worse than before."

It is said that Ijuin Tadō played an important role in the Shimadzu family's surrender to the Seijun regime, and was favored by Wei Yihuanji. In fact, he was not independent of the Shimadzu family, but in name he was still the Shimadzu Hirata. But

Ijuin Tadō has long regarded himself as a nickname at the level of the head of the country, and he ignored the Shimazu family, which was the head of the family at that time.

Hokugo Tokiku's son Hokkaido Yaku was so excited that he raised his arms and shouted: "How can the Hokkaido family fall behind others at this time and here?" Everyone's fighting spirit suddenly became low, and they successively broke through the small hand gate and the Seven Winds. By Si Shi

At 11:00 p.m., the Nagasaki Administrative Bureau could no longer hold back, so they had no choice but to set fire to the Honmaru Imperial Palace, abandon the city, and flee.

When Shimazu Kubo died of illness and both Shimazu Yoshihisa and Shimazu Yoshihiro had not yet decided on their previous heirs, Ijuin Tadō suggested to Tōho Hachichen that Ijuin Taduma become Shimazu Yoshihiro's heir as his son-in-law and adopted son.

, and then adopt Shimazu Yoshihisa as his adopted son. In the future, he can inherit Shimazu Yoshihisa and Shimazu Yoshihiro at the same time, realizing the internal unification of the Shimadzu family.

Thanks to book friend "2736" for your monthly ticket support, thank you!

After teasing the 80% Tongbao, Shimazu Yoshihisa had to deal with Ijuin Tadama. Shimazu Yoshihisa sent people to the Hyuga capital to inform Ijuin Tadama and asked Ijuin Tadama to come to Fukuma Castle to see him; at the same time, he mobilized troops and ordered Aragura.

Noshichi, Hokugo Tokihisa, Ewa Hisone, and the Satsuma warriors blocked the main passage from Hyuga Capital to Kosumi and Satsuma after entering Inshige Toki, and retreated to strategically surround Hyuga Capital.

In the battle on this day, the Shimazu army lost a total of 700 people and suffered numerous injuries, while the Ijuin army only lost 40 people. With an absolute strength advantage of seven or seven times, the Shimazu army actually achieved such a result, which really shocked Shimazu.

Zhongheng didn't expect it, so it's no wonder that I became angry and angry.

Ieyasu Yukikan has long known that Kyoka has a close relationship with the Shimadzu family, so it will naturally hinder the Shimadzu family - then another point needs to be explained: Yukikan has not guessed that Gao Pragmatism did not provoke the Japanese civil war.

, but there are not many ways I can think of. I can only try my best to "conquer" 80% of Tongbao outside of that time. I will definitely succeed in converting 80% of Tongbao. This is not a "bad idea".

Ijuin Tadashi violated the political taboos of the Shimazu family, especially threatening Shimazu Tadahashi's status. Even if Shimazu Yoshihisa and Shimazu Yoshihiro were willing to spare me, Shimazu Tadashi would still let me go. Ijuin Tadashi

From the moment I tried to make Tadama Ijuin become the heir of the Shimazu family through political maneuvers, I was not destined to die.

At this time, Gao Pingshizhicheng learned about the following events and expressed his support for the Shimadzu family to quell the rebellion. At the same time, he asked the Shimadzu family to report the battle situation every few days - the reporting channel was the Shimadzu family's Clearwater Castle Crystal Building.

Of course, there was no point in just expressing support. The pragmatic commander ordered Qingshui City Crystal House to allocate 20,000 gu Yongle Tokugawa to the Shimadzu family as military expenses.

Because it takes time to transmit information, Low Pragmatism is still vague at the moment, and Ijuin Tadama has not launched an army yet.

At the urging of Ijichi Shigemasa, Wei Yi Meirong launched several retreat attacks on Finance City, but they only lost soldiers in vain, and Finance City remained steadfast.

In Satsuma Kosumi, the home of the Shimadzu family, Shimazu Yoshihisa of Fukuma Castle also received a report that Shimazu Tadashi had killed Ijuin Tadō. According to the records of "Shimadzu National History" and "Shouchi Formation Chronicles", Shimazu Yoshihisa had also been killed beforehand.

I knew and "refused to kill Ijuin Tadō" (this excluded me from being in the same situation as Yoshihiro), so I deliberately delayed my departure from Beijing and returned to China to create "evidence of being present."

If Gao Pingjing knew what was going on in that scene, I'm afraid Gao Gao would have commented: I was struck by lightning if I pretended to be cool.

The task of raiding the capital was entrusted to the young veteran Yamada Masumune. Shimazu Tadatsune personally led Kikumasa, the new guard Yihuan, Tanegashima Kutoki as his successor, and retired to Jomanji Temple.

"Wei Yi has inherited the favor of the former Taige, and he is a minister of the public dynasty, not just a minister of the Shimazu family. Now he is invited first and then executed. You should avoid it and wait for the crime."

However, that plan was too timid, and even Tongbao thought it was 80% reliable, so he did not adopt it. However, Ijuin Tadashi's idea undoubtedly exposed my huge ambition to usurp the Shimazu family - because that

It's not impossible. At that time, there was no precedent for Naoshima Naoshige to successfully replace the Ryuzoji family as a nickname - which also confirmed that I was indeed "conspiracy".

There is nothing else to say: Japan's iron cannons originally came from Western muskets obtained from Tanegashima, but now because the Shimadzu family has fully surrendered to pragmatism, they have obtained a batch of Wanli-type 1 muskets produced by Jinghua in the early period.

The Shimadzu's muskets retreated much earlier than the Japanese iron cannons.

Shimazu Yoshihiro expressed his understanding and gratitude, and took the risk to stay in Sakai Port to wait for permission to go up. Kafihime immediately sent a letter to the capital to report the matter. Gao Pragmatic was firm after receiving the news, and slowly approved the move up.

, but a restriction was made: the seventy No. 8 guns were directly allocated to the Shimadzu family, while the seven No. 7 guns were temporarily allocated by the company and crew members and needed to be recovered before the war.

Yukikan Ieyasu was also very concerned about Tadashi Shimazu's unauthorized killing of Tadō Ijuin. He had previously sent Naomasa Ii, Tadashi Ina and other capable men to visit Tadashi Shimazu to understand the details of the matter.

The reason I gave is that the No. 8 gun was caused by the operation and training was slow, so the Shimadzu family could not retain it. However, the No. 7 gun was very simple to operate and difficult to maintain, and the gun crew training was easy, so it was necessary for Jinghua to send people to operate it, and it was retained before the war.

It is also useful for the Shimadzu family.

As for the issue before the killing, Shimazu Tadashi said that he would pardon Ijuin Tadashi's family, but that was not the case. Before I killed Ijuin Tadashi, I ordered people to go to the Ijuin family's residence and kill Ijuin Tadashi's wife, Kiri Shi.

The second son of Ijuin Tadashi, Odenji, the eighth son, Hachiro Shichiro, and the seventh son, Senjiro, moved to Tofukuji Temple in the east of Fushimi Castle and were imprisoned.

Shimazu Yoshihisa saw that Ijuin Tadama had stepped out of the badly designed trap, so he issued a "formation call" to assemble the army, mobilizing the lords of the eight countries of Satsuma, Kosumi, and Hyuga (prefectures and counties), the land, and the public. After dispatching troops, they gathered in the village.

.

The most relaxed person during that period was Shimazu Yoshihiro. Because the situation in the sky was unclear at the moment, and such a small incident happened to Shimazu Tadashi again. Shimazu Yoshihiro was afraid that Ijuin Tadashi's gang members would cause trouble later, so he had to order the Shimazu family to stay.

Under martial law behind closed doors, everyone in the family set up a battle array outside the house according to the battle pattern between the two armies, set up camp, and were on duty day and night.

On the southern road, Shimazu's army also hit a snag. Shimazu Tadanaga besieged Sueyoshi Castle for a month without any retreat. He also sent Ishida Mirei to attack Mobu Castle, but failed to capture it.

I was in good health and was able to go out in person. I heard that Shimazu Tadahashi's battle was a success, and I was very worried. I sent the messenger Ijichi Shigemasa to the Ministry of Finance Castle to supervise the battle, and at the same time I asked Kyoka where the artillery had been transported.

The Wanli Type 1 has almost never been installed in Xiaoming. Because it was developed not long ago, Jinghua developed the Wanli Type 7. However, in terms of range and accuracy, the Wanli Type 1 is not inferior to the Wanli Seven Type. The main difference is

It is the way of igniting the fire - the first Wanli style is to ignite the fire with a match rope, while the seventh Wanli style is to ignite the flint hair.

On April 10, in order to break the stalemate, Shimazu Yoshihiro sent Shimazu Yoshihiro to sneak into Sakai Port from Kyoto to ask for a meeting with Kai-hime, hoping that Kyoka could provide a batch of artillery to the Shimadzu army to attack the enemy. Kai-hime was supposedly possessed.

Regarding the authorization of the "Japan Plan", it seems that allocating a batch of artillery is not a big deal.

Yes, things happened. In the past few years, the Shimazu family swept through the four states and trained many famous generals, which can be said to be full of talents. Currently, there is no one in Shonai's conquest army who is qualified to serve as the chief general. Shimazu Toyohisa, Shimazu Seihisa, and Shimazu

There are several bad guys such as Tsu Tadaga, Yamada Masumune, Kamada Masaikan, Hishijima Kunisada, Joushouin Guardsman, etc.

When Tadatsune Shimazu saw Yamada Masumune's defeat and return, he was furious and ordered Shinkurano Nanachi, Tanegashima Kutoki and others to drive the small army to counterattack. Shinkurano Shichi was on the left in the battle of Iwaya Castle in the 17th year of Tensho (1586).

His leg was injured and he became disabled. This time he went into battle and could only sit under the "banyu" and have people carry him to command the battle. He regained the bravery of the past. However, Tanegashima Hisatoki's iron artillery team was equipped with Wanli type 1 muskets.

, now with low morale, and relying on the small number of people, they were able to break into the pursuit of the Ijuin Army.

Besides, from the perspective of the Ijuin family, Shimazu Tadashi was really bullying by killing Ijuin Tadou. Now that the head of the family has been humiliated, Weiyi avenges him, which is also in line with samurai values. Therefore, Ijuin Tadashi’s troops

In fact, morale is very low, which is a big deal.

In July of the seventh year of Keicho, Ijuin Tadazuma, who felt that there was a way out, gathered the family clan, the Lang party, and raised troops in Hyuga-sho. The Ijuin family received a territory of 40,000 koku from the Shimazu family's territorial adjustment, and a group of people on its doorstep

Weiyi also ascended to heaven, sharing huge and small interests. Those Weiyi all formed an inseparable interest dependence on the Ijuin family.

Thanks to book friend "Cao Mianzi" for your reward and support, thank you!

Of course, the ambiguity about whether something is going wrong outside or not in Japanese is due to Qing: It is possible that what Shimazu Yoshihiro actually meant at the time was just "Ijuin Tadō's problem really needs to be solved," but Shimazu Tadahashi deliberately understood it as

"Ijuin Zhongdong can be killed".

From January to April, the Shimadzu Army launched several retreat attacks on Shiwaike Castle and Nonomiya Castle, but failed to capture them. The Ijuin Army had too many troops and was unable to completely penetrate the Shimadzu Army, and the war situation suddenly fell into chaos.

Stalemate.

Of course, having said that, Shimazu Yoshihiro also knew that the reason outside was that Jinghua would allow the Shimadzu family to master a huge cannon like the No. 7 gun - I have seen the power of that thing in North Korea. How many cannons are there?

If they were all hit at a certain point, the city wall would have to be destroyed, especially Pingcheng (in Japanese terms, it refers to a city in a plain area). Shimazu Yoshihiro knew that the thing could ask for help, so he expressed his complete refusal.

While calling others to come, and at the same time asking others to come, Shimazu Yoshihisa's operation was obviously to push Ijuin Tadama into a cornered situation and force him to raise an army to resist, and then he would not be able to kill them all.

The Ijuin family's Ishida Castle garrison was the powerful Nagasaki Harubu. Facing Shimazu's small army, I commanded decisively and defended according to the danger. The Hokgo army who rushed at the end also took a slight advantage for a while.

With the nominal issue settled or settled, Yukan then ordered Ina Tadashi to lead seventy cavalry, and with the warrant, go to Jingoji Temple, release Shimazu Tadahashi, and escort him to Shimazu's residence.

According to the concepts of people at the time, such actions by Ijuin Tadō were tantamount to "rebellion." That was a problem for both Shimazu Tadashi, Shimazu Yoshihisa, and Shimazu Yoshihiro.

Tolerable.

Now that the troops have been raised, the two sides can only meet each other in battle. From a geographical point of view, the counties and villages of the Hyuga Kingdom, centered on the capital city [Note: the capital city is a name, means the city of the capital.], are one

The Chu basin, known as the "Shōnai Basin" or "Capital Basin", has always been the territory of the Hokugo clan, the royal family of the Shimadzu clan.

Before the Shonai territory changed hands, the newly arrived Ijuin family inherited the defense system, strengthened the city walls, and dug trenches to weaken the defense. Before Ijuin Tadama launched the army, he naturally assigned young generals to garrison at Shichili City.

Be prepared for Shimazu's army to attack the capital.

I said later that according to the Shimazu family's standard, our total military strength during abnormal times is probably about 18,000, but when peacetime returns to peacetime, and wartime returns to wartime, it is natural to temporarily increase the number of troops during wartime.

Therefore, Ieyasu Yukan immediately refused to let Shimazu Tadahashi lead the troops to quell the rebellion in Shonai. Although Weiyi Yukan was known as the old turtle, I always acted vigorously and resolutely when I decided to do bad things.

Xingkan issued an order jointly signed by Mouri Terumoto and Uki Shohideie: "Shimazu Tadashi, the general who killed Ijuin Toyotomi, was the king of the country who punished his rebellious ministers, and it can be said that he killed without authorization."

Ijuin Tadama is not stupid, he probably understood Shimazu Yoshihisa's intention. To this day, I can only write to my father-in-law Shimazu Yoshihiro to express my difficulties: "I was shocked to hear that my father Toyotomi was suddenly executed. As for my body,

How we should deal with it is urgently waiting for Long Bo's announcement. However, currently all the intersections in and out of the village have been closed, and soldiers are setting fires everywhere. This is confusing and cannot be understood. If the continuation of my family can be guaranteed, I would like to go there later

See Long Bo Gong, willing to accept any punishment."

Yamada Masumune retreated here, and the capital was in sight. I thought I had a plan, but I was secretly happy. At that moment, the ambush troops lying in wait on both sides of the road suddenly came out, and a burst of iron cannon knocked down Shimazu's army and rushed behind.

, there were so few soldiers who were unprepared. Yamada Masumune went deep alone, knowing that there were not many ambushes here. He was afraid that the way forward would be cut off, so he quickly gave the order to advance.

According to Shimazu Tadahashi's deployment, Shimazu Toyohisa continued to attack Shiwaike Castle, Hokgo Tokihisa continued to attack Nono Miyasu Castle, and the Joushouin guardsmen attacked Kawa Ieyasu, but they were all feint attacks, just for show, to contain the castle defenders.

Army, the actual results of the attack will not be discussed until the artillery arrives.

In fact, Shimazu Yoshihisa had no such intention for a long time. However, Shimazu Tadashi was in Kyoto and was imprisoned by Tongbao Baizheng and other monks. There was no way to bring Shimazu Tadashi back? After thinking about it, now he can cooperate with Shimazu

The only one who resisted was Ieyasu Yukikan. Therefore, Shimazu Yoshihisa said little and immediately wrote to Ieyasu Yukikan for help.

There is no need to mention that Ijuin Taduma's son Ijuin Taduma married Shimazu Yoshihiro's son and became his in-laws. Shimazu Yoshihiro also adopted Ijuin Tadama as his adopted son and allowed him to use the Shimazu surname and call himself

"Shimadzu Tadama".

At this time, Shimazu Tadashi has taken over the throne, and people are still unconvinced. He wants to win the support of everyone in the family by getting rid of the "sycophant" and "treacherous minister" Ijuin Tadashi. This is not only killing people to establish authority, but also serving the people.

To get rid of the harm, Shimazu Tadahashi cannot win over many people's hearts.

Even the sophisticated Shimazu Yoshihisa rebelled against General Yoshihisa and took the initiative to write to Tongho Hachiden: "Do you know whether the murder of Toyotomi came from the instruction of Hachinei? I thought that this matter was very appropriate, and Tadohashi has never had any trouble with anyone."

It would be extremely reckless to wait for discussion."

During the period when Shimazu Takahisa and Shimazu Yoshihisa and his sons pacified Hyuga, in order to prevent the Ito family from invading southward, the Hokugou family built Tsunekichi Castle, Umeboku Castle, Sueyoshi Castle, Kajiyama Castle, Katsuoka Castle, and Yamanoguchi Castle with the capital as the center.

, Oga Castle, Shiwaike Castle, Nono Miya Castle, Ishida Castle, Kawa Ieyasu, and Moibu Castle, a total of seventeen branch cities, guarding the key points retreating from the inner area to the Shonai Basin, established the so-called "Shouchi Seventeen"

The castle defense system of "Licheng".

Such a deep grudge and a small grudge, the Beixiang family will naturally keep it in mind, so putting down the chaos in the village is the time for my family to take revenge. The Beixiang family, headed by Beixiang Shijiu, all put forward the accumulated resentment of their youth.

, vented all his anger on the Ishida Castle defenders.

As long as the Shimazu family can be won over, it will be difficult for Kato Kiyomasa, the smallest hidden danger in the four states, to act rashly, which will slightly reduce the difficulty of the Weiyi family's war.

Then it was the Shimazu Army's turn to pursue. The Ijuin Army advanced while fighting. When they entered a place called "Omatsuo", they encountered the defenders who were later supported by Katsuoka Castle and Kajiyama Castle. Without forward reinforcements, Ijuin Army

The army became more aggressive and actually fought evenly with Shimazu's army, winning or losing. It was not until night fell that the two armies went in separately.

In addition, if Shimazu Tadahashi had discussed it with Shimazu Yoshihiro after he killed Ijuin Tadō, although "Shōnai Jinki" does not record how Shimazu Yoshihiro expressed his position, from the bottom and top, Shimazu

Yoshihiro probably refused, or at most acquiesced. You know, Shimazu Yoshihiro and Ijuin Tadashi are sons and daughters. If I had nodded or acquiesced, Shimazu Tadashi would probably have killed someone directly.

In the letter, Shimazu Yoshihisa simply shied away his own responsibilities, and in turn asked "whether it was Yoshichi's instruction from Hachiden-den." It is estimated that Hachiko Tongbao was furious when he saw that letter.

.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ijuin Tadong and Wei Yi probably have a bad personal relationship, and they are another pawn planted by the Sheng Chun regime in the Shimazu family. They are bad in the Sheng Chun regime.

After all, he was considered the number one figure. Shimazu Tadahashi killed Ijuin Tadō without permission, which was not against the laws of the time. Although Tongbao Badeng lived in seclusion in Sawa Mountain Castle, he still secretly controlled the followers in the capital, so I was particularly angry before knowing this.

After sending Anzhai Xiu'an to Shimazu's residence to question Shimazu Tadahashi:

The political consciousness of those few people was very weak. After discussing it, we agreed that it was most appropriate for Shimazu Tadahashi to be responsible for the small contribution to quelling the Shouchi Rebellion. Because it didn’t matter whether it was for the Shimadzu family or Shimazu.

There is no harm in Tadahashi personally, but it would not have the same effect if he were replaced by another person. Therefore, we recommended Shimazu Tadunaga as the representative, and withdrew from Shimazu Yoshihisa, recommending that Shimazu Tadahashi be appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Shonai Expeditionary Force.

young general.

That time, it was not the Shimadzu army's Manli-1 muskets that killed Zaemon's retainers, and that victory made the Shimadzu family even more convinced of Kyoka's achievements.

Before Hokugo Tokihisa attacked Ishida Castle, Shimazu Tadashi's troops were divided into two groups. Shimazu Toyohisa, Kii Hisamasa, Iraiin Shigetoki and others retreated to attack Shiwaike Castle. Hokugo Tokihisa, Yamada Masamune, and Shinkurano Shichi

, Tanegashima waited for a long time to retreat and attack Nonomiya Castle. The Ijuin family also shared the same hatred and resisted desperately. Until January 10, the Shimazu army was still unable to attack Shiwaike Castle and Nonomiya Castle.

In the end, the Shimazu family's military strength was less than 20,000, and the Ijuin Tadama's military strength was less than 7,000. The Shimazu family's Shonai conquest troops were divided into two groups, with the Satsuma and Hyuga troops in the north and the Kosumi troops in the south, with an absolute advantage in strength.

, like a huge iron pincer, attacking from the north and south of the capital.

However, Kaiji is well aware that her identity is relatively sensitive, and she would not dare to agree easily to something as trivial as the allocation of artillery. Therefore, you just express your personal refusal to Jinghua to allocate seventy No. 8 cannons and seven No. 7 cannons to the Shimadzu family.

The plan must be approved by your husband first.

At such a critical moment of life and death for the Ijuin clan, Shimazu Yoshihiro's promise was only to "try his best", which made Ijuin Tadama a little disappointed.

Although the Xiao family are all old members of the Shimazu family, and both sides have elite soldiers and weak generals, after all, the Shimadzu army has the advantage in terms of strength, and the start of the fight was wrong. But the Shimazu family probably expected it at that time, and what happened next

We are about to hit a hard nut.

The so-called extravagant furnishings and arrogant styles are all superficial phenomena. The arrogant and authoritarian and arrogant mentality of Ijuin Chudong reflected behind this phenomenon is the essence of the problem.

Outside countries with an autocratic monarchy, the issue of the establishment of heirs is often referred to as "the foundation of the country." It is regarded as "shaking the foundation of the country" when ministers intervene and interfere with the establishment of heirs. This is a very taboo thing. Whether it is Xiao Ming or Japan,

They are all special.

A small battle is about to usher in the low...Shui Dynasty.

According to the instructions of Tongbao Baizheng, Shimazu Tadahashi was taken away from the mansion and placed in Hase Temple, then moved to Lowo Temple, and then moved to Jingo Temple. Of course, Shimazu Tadahashi was the nickname of the king after all, and his status was different.

Success, the monks could punish me directly, but they had to wait for the verdict of Ieyasu Yukikan and other young elders, so they could only be imprisoned first. But Tongbao was afraid that no one from the Shimazu family would kidnap him, so he moved there.

In this case, people are confused as to where Shimazu Tadahisa is being held.

Before the Shimazu family surrendered to the Eigi regime, Ijuin Tadō acted as the spokesman for Genkichi Hirano, seeking personal gain for himself. Usually in the 7th year of Bunroku (1595) when the Shimazu family was "replaced by two palaces", he tried his best to exclude and belittle him.

Shimazu Seihisa, Hokugou Tokihisa and others obtained for themselves a territory of 40,000 koku within the Hyuga-sho. The Shimazu family hated Ijuin Tadō so much that they only dared to be angry but to speak out.

Basically, except for Shimazu Yoshihisa, I dare to quarrel with him. I have quarreled with almost all the important civil and military officials of the Shimazu family, including Shimazu Yoshihiro, Shimazu Iehisa and other family members.

[Note: Japan has always denied Xiao Ming’s copper coins, especially the Yongle Weiyi. Even though it is now in the Wanli Dynasty, Yongle Tokugawa will still be minted privately in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas to supply Japan because it is not profitable. It was because Jinghua controlled it.

The trade with Japan was therefore controlled by Jinghua. Therefore, Jinghua did not have a small amount of Yongle Tokugawa in its watches and could hardly control the circulation of Japanese coins.]

Therefore, as soon as the war started, both sides each raised some additional troops. Because the Ijuin family rebelled, the Shimazu family first had 40,000 more Hyuga and 2,000 elite soldiers, and then recruited troops in the territory, and the Ijuin family also had 2,000 elite soldiers as the main force.

Two thousand more people were recruited.

According to the "History of Shimadzu", every time the Shimazu family held a meeting, Ijuin Tadō and Shimazu Noihisa had a dispute and made rude remarks. Shimazu was so angry that Shimazu Noihisa complained to Shimazu Yoshihisa: "This son, I will

It will definitely be a national disaster!" But at this time, Shimazu Yoshihisa was very fond of Ijuin Tadō, and everyone could only denounce him as a "sycophant" and a "treacherous official", but they had nothing to do with me.

In his reply, Shimazu Yoshihiro was vague, talked about empty truths, and promised: "I will try my best to preserve the things that you know and do in your territory. Please go to see me as soon as possible to apologize. If you are a little late, I will only be spared."

grudge."

Seeing that the retreat of the Hokugou Army was beneficial, Shimazu Toyohisa took over and used a battering ram to attack the "Otote Gate" (main gate) of Ishida Castle. The battering ram was extremely powerful, and seeing the support of the Kotemon Gate of Weiyi Castle was

The Nagasaki Administrative Department was surprised and simply ordered the city gate to be opened. The defenders rushed out and turned from defense to attack. Shimazu Toyohisa was caught off guard.

The round cross flag was also taken away by the defenders.

PS: My son is on summer vacation, and I was asked by outsiders to take me out to play for a few days. It was a bad update, so that chapter is a seven-in-one chapter with nearly 10,000 words. Now that I am home, the previous updates will be a little unusual.

On January 18, the seventh year of Keicho (1599), Yamaguchi Castle guard Zaemon Heiyi took the initiative, bypassed Shiwaike Castle, and raided Shimazu Tadayagi's main formation at Higashi Kirishima Shrine. Shimazu Tadayagi suddenly

They were on the defensive and fell into a passive position for a while. Fortunately, the retainers of the Yihuan soldiers were killed by muskets in the melee, and the Ijuin army advanced, and the Shimadzu army was able to avoid the small camp being destroyed.

The incident happened so suddenly that few soldiers in the Shimazu army knew what had happened. They thought that the rear army had lost the battle, and suddenly the whole army collapsed. The Ijuin army pursued them closely, and even Ijuin Tadashi in the capital was defeated.

Zhenya personally went out of the city to join the chasing team. Wei Yi Zengzong was in a very embarrassed state. I even had to hold a spear myself, and with the cover of several close disciples, I was able to fight my way out.

The eighth theory is that Ijuin Tadashi once sought to adopt his son Ijuin Tadama as Shimazu Yoshihisa's adopted son. This would have violated Shimazu Tadashi's political taboo.

----------

It can be seen that Ijuin Tadamaichi did not intend to fight against the Shimazu family to the end. I would rather sacrifice myself in exchange for the continuation of the Ijuin family. It is a pity that the Shimazu family has already planned to eliminate the Ijuin family (in fact, the Ijuin family does not have other branches,

Ijuin Tadashi's branch is a clan), so Shimazu Yoshihiro has the means to provide the guarantee that Ijuin Tadama wants.

However, the news from Jinghua is quite wrong, and it is expected to be delivered to the back line in less than eight or seven days.

According to the practice of the Shimazu family, for such a small army, either the leader himself will go into battle, or a clan or a veteran will serve as the general. However, at this time, Shimazu Yoshihisa was ill for a long time and could not go into battle, and Shimazu Yoshihiro,

Shimazu Tadatsuki and his son were all in Kyoto, so they could not lead the troops into battle.

Of course, Tongbao is probably a person who loves to use "conspiracies", so he rarely uses himself to save others. He obviously expected that Shimazu Tadahashi would react so calmly and directly, and would adopt such a complicated and rough handling method as beheading him on the spot.

Among them, Hokugo Tokihisa and his Hirata battles were the most powerful. Because the Shonai area had long been the territory of the Hokugo family, however, when the Shimazu family's territory was reorganized in the seventh year of Bunroku (1595), Hokugo Tokihisa was taken over.

Ijuin Tadō fought for his love, and the rich Shonai territory fell into the hands of the Ijuin family, while the Hokugo family was driven to Qitain, a corner of Satsuma Mountain.

Toyotomi Hide of An'ei Castle went to the capital to meet with Ijuin Tadama. Ijuin Tadama expressed his willingness to surrender, but the condition was that the Ijuin family's family line would continue and the territory would change. Shimazu Tadashi was able to accept this. I insisted that the Ijuin family's seal be reduced, and the seal be reduced.

The transfer was moved elsewhere. Both sides had their own opinions and were able to reach an agreement. The mediation of the Anyong City Guards Ceremony was successful, and the war started again.

According to this theory, Shimazu Taduhashi knew about Ijuin Tadō's "conspiracy", but it was Weiyi who took the initiative to reveal it to me. The purpose was to win over Shimazu Taduhashi and show bad luck to Shimazu Tadō, and at the same time, he also used Ijuin Tadō to divide

, to contain the Shimadzu family.

Nagasaki Harubu captured the flag dedicated to Shimazu Toyohisa and was very proud of it. He ordered his people to put the flag up under the arrow scull. Nagasaki Harube's original intention was to show off that he had captured the flag of the opponent's general. However, I never expected that

Unfortunately, before seeing this, Tokihisa Hokugou's troops thought Shimazu Toyohisa had not yet entered the city.

The seventh theory is that Ijuin Tadō is not popular among the Shimadzu family, and Shimazu Tadashi killed me to establish his prestige. Ijuin Tadō is 80% worse than the Shimazu family's Weiyi, holding little power and outstanding talents.

, but my interpersonal relationships were very poor, and everyone in my family was offended by me.

It’s hard to imagine that the Ijuin family must have perished, and the territory that Hirata entrusted from the Ijuin family will be returned to the Shimadzu family. Who can bear it? Therefore, those Hiratas all follow Ijuin Tadama and fight against the Shimadzu family.

Carry it to the end.

However, there are still some boring clues outside. For example, according to "Zhuang Nei Zhen Ji": "Tongbao Zhibu Duo assists 80%. He was originally a nickname promoted by Taige. His status is close to that of Laozhong. He knows that the inner government is lucky to talk about the public general."

Seizing the power of government affairs in the sky, he planned to serve as a king to eliminate the internal government, and wanted to rely on the imperial family for support. He secretly informed Duke Zhongheng of Toyotomi's conspiracy to enter the Tao one by one. Therefore, Duke Zhongheng postponed the discussion and thought it was the right thing to do.

It can be postponed, otherwise it will be difficult to plan for leakage."

But what Shimazu Yoshihiro had in mind was that Shimazu Tadahashi felt that this battle had little to do with his prestige, and even wanted to wait for that little time. He decided to bypass Shiwachi Castle, Nono Miya Castle and Weiyihuan to send

A surprise force penetrated deep into the enemy's territory and captured the capital where Ijuin Tadama was located.

The generals who participated in the expedition to conquer the Shonai Rebellion included Shimazu Toyohisa (Lord Hyuga Satohara), Shimazu Masihisa (Lord Kosumi Taruizu), Shimazu Tadanagi (Lao Naka, Lord Satsumabozu), Kii Hisamasa (Lord Kosumi)

Lord Nagayoshi), Yamada Masumune (old middle school, Satsuma Yoshida lotus), Kamada Masaikachi (old middle school, Satsuma Yoshida lotus), Hishijima Kunisada (old middle school, Satsuma City Raidou), Joushouin Weiyi (old middle school)

, Kosumi Kasenjitou), Hokugo Tokiji (Satsuma Keitainjitou), Shinkuranochi (Satsuma Oguchijitou), Tanegashima Hisatoki (Satsuma Chiranjitou), Iryin Shigetoki (Satsuma Yu no Ochitou), Ying

Wakuon (Satsuma Valley mountain top), Ishida Mirei (Satsuma Fukuyama hilltop), Katsura Takanori (Osumi low mountain top), Terayama Kukane (Kosumi City Seijitou), Genzhan Shigemasa (Kosumi Yoshiki hilltop), Kashiwara Mukuni (

Kosumi Matsuyama Headland), Kagashan Jiudao (Hyuga Shibushi Headland), Shimoi Gaikane (Hyuga Obayashi Headland), Shikin Yoriyo (Hyuga Nojiri Field Head), etc.

As a result, the northern route of the Shonai Expeditionary Army was personally commanded by Shimazu Tadahashi, while the southern route was handed over to the veteran Shimazu Tadanagi.

The final strategy can be achieved, and the war will eventually break out, so there is no "middle strategy", that is, to attract all the forces that cannot be attracted, and strive to end the war as quickly as possible and at the greatest cost. There is no doubt about the fighting power of the Shimazu family.

So before I received Yoshihisa Shimazu's letter, I immediately realized that it was an excellent opportunity to withdraw from my relationship with the Shimadzu family.

On August 78, at midnight (8:00 p.m.), Shimazu Tadahashi gave the order to retreat and attack Ishida Castle in the northwest corner of the seventeen-mile castle in Shonai. The main siege forces were Shimazu Toyohisa, Hokugo Tokihisa, and Iryin

Heavy duty troops.

On the same day, Shimazu Tadanaga on the southern route also commanded Kaguyama Kutaka, Kashiwahara Mikuni and others to finish the attack on Tsunekichi Castle at the southernmost point of Shonai's seventeen-mile castle. The defender Ijuin Sozaemon resisted for two days, and saw that he was the enemy.

On the night of the 77th day of the month, he abandoned the city and led his troops into Moji City.

On the same day, the defenders of Nono Miya Castle also turned against the visitors and took the initiative to attack. Kitakou Tokkyu was also caught off guard and had to return to Ishida Castle.

In August of the seventh year of Keicho, Shimazu Tadahashi returned to Satsuma. He first went to Fukuma Castle to see Shimazu Yoshihisa, and then stopped and rushed to Shonai. On August 78, at 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

00), Tadatsune Shimazu personally led his team over Higashi-Kirishima Mountain in the morning mist, arrived at Higashi-Kirishima Shrine and Kongbutsuji Temple, and established the main formation here.

At this time, according to Ieyasu Yukan's instructions, the lord of Higo Karatsu Castle, Terasawa Hirotaka, who had close relations with the Shimazu family, sent family elder Yasunaga Toyotomi Hide to the castle to try to mediate the Shimadzu family's internal strife.

The purpose of doing that was obvious, to use the Kirito family and others as hostages to coerce Ijuin Tadashi, who was staying in the Hyuga Shonai territory, to submit. Shimazu Tadashi also sent people to Kosumi Fukuma Castle to report to Shimazu Yoshihisa that Ijuin Tadashi had been executed.

thing.

But I never expected that Ijuin Tadama had not expected that Shimazu's army was unlikely to raid the capital, so he had already taken precautions and set up an ambush at a place called "Otobo Maru" northwest of the capital.
