Chapter 290 Feng Chan (4) Directly stating the interests and harms
Gao pragmatically asked Shimazu Tadayagi to take the initiative to speak, which was completely beyond Shimazu Tadayagi's expectation. However, Shimazu Tadayao did not panic, but quickly calmed down and combined it with what he had explained to him in the two palaces before leaving.
After sorting out his recent thoughts, he took a deep breath and prepared to speak.
Shimazu Tadahashi's eyes were firm, and he knew it was time to reveal to Gao Pragmatic the voices of dissatisfaction lurking in the dark.
"Okaku, since your order arrived in Osaka, Toyotomi's official rites have been completely renewed, and the Edo shogunate has been successfully built. All of this must be as you expected. However, although Japan is calm on the surface, it is deeply undercurrent.
For some daimyo, their dissatisfaction is like the flames under Mount Fuji, which will erupt when the time is right." Shimazu Tadahashi's voice was low, with a bit of worry.
"Oh?" Gao Pingshi raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Shimazu Tadahashi with burning eyes: "Zhongheng, can you elaborate on the dissatisfied people you mentioned?"
Shimazu Tadahashi pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly: "First of all, there are those daimyo whose interests were damaged after the war, such as Mori Terumoto and Uesugi Kagekatsu. These people lost large areas of territory after the war. Although they accepted the reality on the surface, they
But it was only due to lack of strength that they had no choice but to take it. The unwillingness and anger in their hearts were like poison that invaded the internal organs, corroding his reason day after day."
Gao Pingshi nodded slightly and signaled Shimazu Tadahashi to continue.
Shimazu Tadahashi continued: "Secondly, there are those daimyo who stick to their local ideas. I had no communication with Tokugawa Hidetada on the way to Korea. My words revealed my worries about Xiao Ming's complete annexation of Japan, and even my concern about Japan abandoning its own culture.
Even after learning all about Xiao Ming, I was not wary, or even disgusted.
Up here, that sentiment also exists for my father Yasu Yaowei. We are afraid that Kyoka's influence will erode Japanese tradition and culture. That fear is like the cold wind outside in winter, biting and hard to dispel."
Gao Pragmatic frowned slightly, I know what Shimazu Tadahashi said is true, because almost everything is human nature. Japan's conservative power has always been very weak, especially that old turtle Yao Weimingjun, I am not under the original history
A typical conservative, and the reason why the Edo shogunate closed itself off from the country has nothing to do with my conservative mentality.
For such a person, I would worry that it would be abnormal for Xiao Ming's culture to completely overwrite Japanese traditions. It would be natural for me to influence Yao Wei Hidetada.
Bizen, Bichung, and Meisaku. Although the eight pieces of land connected together are the same as Hizen, they are equally rich. The total stone is about 770,000 koku, which is an increase of 700 koku from the 870,000 koku in Hizen.
Less than ten thousand stones.
Fukushima Masanori knew this, so naturally he would only think that the reward was fair and pragmatic, and he would reflect on himself, so he would naturally feel resentful.
So the question arises, why did Fukushima Masanori jump out to support the Ming army at this time? Because Kafihime sent someone to hint to me after I arrived in Kanto, making me mistakenly believe that Yao Wei had not received the full support of Jinghua. After arriving in Kanto
Previously, Masanori Fukushima discovered Doida artillery among the Ming army, and immediately concluded that what Kaihime said was false, and that Kyoka had indeed not invested heavily in Ieyasu Aki's army.
However, the results proved that Date Masaru's attack on Date Masaru was a great loss for Shimogami Yoshimitsu. Faced with the Shimogami family's layered defense strategy, Date Gunso's army moved further inland.
The two counties of Sangzhe and Yaowei invaded, and the resistance they encountered became smaller and smaller.
That kind of emotion even made me invest more in the previous battles than I did in the Battle of Sekigahara in the original history. In the Battle of Sekigahara in the original history, Fukushima Masanori sent 8,000 troops, second only to Yao.
Wei Yaowei's headquarters has 80,000 people and Asano Yukinaga's 8,700 people.
Therefore, Gao pragmatism made a decision on the Ming army's suggestion. Apart from the small territory gained in the early stage, Date Junzong had almost no extra gains, so he was very satisfied with Gao pragmatism.
In this way, I consider myself to be the most accomplished in Ou Yu's battles (if the Ming army counts himself), so there is indeed something wrong with the bad image. But what about the benefits I gained? Well, I can only say that it is very special.
Although the Ieyasu family is your ally, they have no concerns about whether Japan can survive, so there may be a risk of not being willing to cooperate in some matters?"
Then let’s talk about Date Gunmune’s performance in the battle between the East and West armies. First of all, let me explain one thing, did Date Gunmune participate in the Battle of Toyotomi? My battlefield is in the Northeast, and there is only one war target:
Yoshiko on the bottom.
Shimogami Yoshimitsu and Naoe Kanetsugu were well aware of Date Junzong's obsession with regaining his homeland. Therefore, while preparing for Yao Wei's expedition to the north, Naoe Kanetsugu ordered an alliance with Yao Wei on January 17.
Wei Ling only had the nearby Masaharu Date to weaken the defense, and quickly sent additional troops to assist in the defense. Once the Yao Weibei clan invades the south, it must be reported as soon as possible. If necessary, Naoe Kanetsugu himself will personally lead his troops to support later, and cooperate with Feng
Chen Xiu’s decisive battle.
Saving Kawaguta Castle and the small hall and successfully preventing the Atsuto family from entering at full speed was a critical turning point for Shimo Yao Weibei and Naoe Kanetsugu. At the end of January, the bad news came that Ieyasu Aki's army turned to retreat westward to fight with Kato Hachisei.
The news came, which meant that the pressure on the southern front of the Shimosugi family was reduced. But for Gunmune Date and Yoshimitsu Mogoshita, it meant that they would have to bear the counterattack of the Shimosugi family alone.
----------
In order to weaken the tendency to make a U-turn, Date Gunmune warned Ieyasu Akijun: "If your action is not delayed, it will cause misunderstandings among the small names surrounding Shimosugi, and then something will happen that is beneficial to you."
.”
Masanori Fukushima was the commander-in-chief of the Seventh Army of Japan's four small armies during the initial invasion of Korea. His troops numbered 27,000, second only to Tsunamoto Kurakage's 1st Army of 80,000. Moreover, my
The Seventh Army is still a direct descendant of Hideyoshi, and its status is evident.
However, the problem is that Ou won the first Yao Wei battle, and Ieyasu Aki's army believed that Date Junzong's obvious way of conserving strength in the early stage was too selfish, so he was willing to give too few rewards.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In January, Ieyasu Yao Wei convened a meeting of all the minor names who arrived in Kanto, which was known in history as the "Dashan Evaluation". The minor names participating in the "Dashan Evaluation" were either close followers of Kawahide Tadayoshi
The direct lineage, either acted according to the prevailing situation, but Yao Wei, the family leader, used real interests to win over us. It was actually very difficult to win over us, and the victory of the win over Yao Wei meant the victory of Yao Wei's formation.
Although Yao Wei was the weakest member of the Eastern Army regime at that time, she was still weak enough to fight the entire Western Army alone. Ieyasu Aki's army must win the support of other minor names in the Eastern Army regime, and the less, the worse
.And the leader Ieyasu Aki’s army most needs to win over at this time has not yet led his troops to Kanto’s nickname. Only without our support, Ieyasu’s army does not have enough troops to fight against the Western Army.

Low pragmatism can only express its approval of that statement.
Here's what happened: After the small battle between the Eastern and Western armies, the issue of Satake Yoshinobu joining the Western Army has been unresolved, but the battle between Shimogami Yoshimitsu and Date Junmune has not yet started in mid-January.
We made great contributions and paid a great price in the war, but the rewards we received in the end were far higher than our expectations. The resentment and gratitude in our hearts are like accumulated volcanoes that may erupt at any time.
"
Before Ieyasu Akira's army arrived in Kanto, Kato Yasunari, Otani Yoshitsugi, Kurakage Tsunamoto, and Uki Shouhideie formed the Western Army to attack Ieyasu Yaowei and controlled Kinki. Because of the strength of Kurakage Tsunamoto and Uki Shouhideie
, controlled the city of Kosaka, the home town of Kawahide Tadayori, so the Eight Elders and Seven Fengxing ended the alliance, and the momentum was twofold. In that case, a small number of minor names in western Japan joined the Western Army, and even Yao Wei Qingzheng
He expressed his intention to join the Western Army.
Gao Pragmatic smiled and asked: "Since he stated his interests directly, he must not have a way to deal with it. Please tell me."
The problem is that even though they knew Yao Wei always used that trick, the Japanese army had no way of cracking it. This is in line with what is said to be a pragmatic saying of coach Date at the time: In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are defeated.
It's all in vain.
On the day after the Battle of Date Masaru, Toyotomi Hide wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue the victory. He contacted the local lords who belonged to the Yao Wei family to launch an armed uprising and cooperated with Yao Weibei to attack Kawaguma Castle and Xiaodate in the southwest. However, he was immediately driven away by Fukushima Castle.
The incoming Shimosugi reinforcements were defeated and returned, hindering their plan to quickly attack Fukushima Castle.
Why? Fukushima Masanori is very full. Tokugawa Kiyomasa and I are both Yao Wei junior generals, and Tokugawa Kiyomasa did not even go to fight the Battle of Toyotomi. Instead, he was sent to retreat and attack Shikoku Island, and then landed in preparation.
, threatening the Mori and Ukishao families. Speaking of which, the battle that Tokugawa Kiyomasa faced was still as difficult as his own, so why did he gain less than himself?
As expected by Naoe Kanetsugu, Date Gunso sent out his confidants in early January, and Katagawa Ieyasu led his troops to surround Date Masa. On January 77, Date Masa, where Naoe Kanetsugu was heavily fortified, was captured by Katakawa.
Yao Weibei's Toyotomi Hide attacked, and more than half of Date Masaru's soldiers were killed or wounded.
However, Date Gunso's reassurance was not fully accepted by Ieyasu Akira's army. Ieyasu Yaowei still decided to return to Edo in early April. At the same time, he also instructed Ieyasu Hidetada, Yuuki Hideyasu and other remaining troops to only serve as defenders, which was proactive.
To attack, Yoshimitsu Mogemitsu has more troops than the Beizong Yao Wei, and the northwest and south sides of his territory are bordered by Shimogami Territory. Even if Ieyasu Yaowei gives instructions, there is no way to pose a major threat to Yoshimitsu Shimogami alone.
That reason Fukushima Masanori wants to understand, because I am a low-pragmatic person. In the view of the low-pragmatic time traveler, Tokugawa Kiyomasa is not only far more mature than Fukushima Masanori in politics, but he is also a bad hand in domestic affairs.
Bizen, Bichung, and Mimasaku couldn't effectively contain the Mori family, and they were worried that I would act insanely.
Of course, Date Gunso's warning is not alarmist. The combined strength of Ishida Komyo is less than that of the Shimosugi family. As long as he loses his support and attack, the powerful Ishida Komyo will not be able to fight against the Shimosugi family.
The more likely result will be that the Yao Wei nicknames secretly communicate with the Shimosugi family one after another in order to protect themselves, and the Ishida area will become another stronghold of the Western Army.
Judging from the results, Date Gunmune's decision was a wise one. Of course, based on the situation at the time, there was no problem with Date Gunmune's choice. After all, facing the weak Shimotsugi family, it was possible to make the decision
It had no way of attacking Kanto as planned by the Western Army, and could only deal with Azuchi and the Mojiga family with all its strength. From that aspect, Date Junzong actually did it.
In July of the seventh year of Keicho, Ieyasu Akijun used the excuse of Shimogami Yoshimitsu to break the "General Affairs Order" promulgated by Hideyoshi after his death, and called on all the minor names in Japan to attack Shimogami Yoshimitsu in the name of the Togun family's ruling. Because Shimogami Yoshimitsu.
Yoshimitsu's territory is located in Mutsu Kokutsu, in the northeastern part of Japan, so Ieyasu Akira's army ordered all the minor names to lead their troops to assemble in their territory, Kantō. I myself followed a small number of retainers and troops to leave Fushimi, the main city of the Togun family.
Then proceed to Edo Castle.
However, Naoe Kanetsugu was the first to sincerely seek peace with Date Gunso, so while negotiating with Date Gunso, he continued to instruct his superiors to weaken the defenses in Fukushima and Ryokawa.
In that Battle of Toyotomi, Fukushima Masanori sent 4,000 troops, which undoubtedly surpassed Asano Yukinaga. He was the Yao Wei family that sent the fewest troops except for the Ming army headquarters. Only for this reason, Fukushima Masanori was still the main force of Ou's retreat to the west.
I was a pioneer at the time, and I took the initiative to fight for it.
In addition, Date Junzong also asked Ieyasu Aki's army to send an order to Mogetsu Yoshimitsu of Yamagata Castle, asking Mogetsu's army to go south to invade Nagai County in the north-central part of Shimosugi territory, forcing the Shimotsugi family to face the challenge of a small line of defense.
Difficulty, thus weakening the power to defend An Tujia.
The following nicknames are all due to their close relationship with low pragmatism. Fukushima Masanori just pinched his nose and recognized them. What I can really convince myself is the award from Tokugawa Kiyomasa.
However, as soon as Yao Weibeiji died, Ieyasu Mingjun immediately broke the "seven little old people and seven old people to follow the collegial agreement". And before the death of Goda Toshiya, Ieyasu Yaowei even more recklessly broke the "seven little old and seven old people to follow the collegiality" system.
Foundation.
When the Sugi family, under the leadership of Naoe Kanetsugu, planned to weaken the counterattack against Date Gunso, they received an armistice invitation from Date Gunso. On April 1, Date Gunso learned that the situation in Keihan was slowly changing, and the family
The real reason why Yasumei's army retreated to the west was that they would be violently attacked by the Shimosugi family and to preserve their own strength, they secretly requested an armistice from Yoshimitsu Shimo and Naoe Kanetsugu.
I originally owned a territory of 770,000 koku in Owari Kiisu Castle, but it was transferred to the seal before the war. The new territory was allocated from the territory reduced by the Shimosugi family. Although the location has not changed, the size of the territory has changed.
But it did not increase, or even slightly increased, and acquired a territory of 870,000 koku in Mutsu.
After the small battle, Toyotomi Hideyoshi gradually fell into a situation of isolation and support. Around mid-April, Date Junmune decided to revise his strategy. At the same time, he ordered Katagawa Ieyasu to step up repairs on the newly captured Date Masaru, and also suspended the attack on Date Masa.
The Xiashan Army launched a weak retreat and instead sent a large force to cause riots in the area where the two armies met, and then sent troops south to retreat to Liangchuan City.
For example, the Shimadzu family has increased from 580,000 koku to 1.33 million koku. Is it because the Shimadzu family has less military merit than Fukushima Masanori? Yes, it is because the Shimadzu family has been low-key and pragmatic and the earliest; the Shirada family has increased from 140,000 koku to 1.33 million koku.
520,000 koku, is the first battle achievement smaller than that of Fukushima Masanori? Yes, it is because the Shirakata family secretly defected to Gao Jingji in the early stages of the Korean War. During the War between the East and West Army, they helped Gao Jingji make contacts everywhere to promote Kyoka's interest.
Loans served as "aid" to minor names participating in the war.
Masanori Fukushima believes that the weak performance of Yao Wei's cavalry is in charging and chasing. The Japanese ponies are basically equipped to fight with Date in frontal charging, especially the Date cavalry is still equipped (half-equipped) cavalry and has little impact.
It's outrageous. It must be said about pursuit and escape. The Japanese pony can't outrun Date's new breed of war horse based on the Mongolian horse. As long as the head-on battle is defeated, it can only be a small defeat.
Tokugawa Kiyomasa, the former lord of Hizen Kumamoto, lost his original territory due to low pragmatic rewards to the Shimazu family before the war. However, low pragmatic did not abandon that important member of Ou.
, a part of the territory reduced by Kurake Tsunamoto was divided as Tokugawa Kiyomasa's new territory.
It seems wrong to increase the price from 770,000 shi to 870,000 shi. Why am I still full? Because comparing one person to another requires sacrifice, and comparing goods requires throwing away.
Date Junzong on the other side knew that before Ieyasu Aki's army left, in order to avoid losing all his advantages, he immediately wrote a letter asking Ieyasu Yaowei to order Ieyasu Hidetada and others who were staying in Ueno to go north at full speed to break through Shirakawa Pass in order to contain the south.
Shimosugi Jun's attention.
The news that the Western Army occupying Kinki decided to launch an attack on Ieyasu Aki's army reached Ishida Mae. The powerful minor families were more willing to fight. Even the Nanbu family, which was in charge of the northern part of the Azuto territory, suspected that they had not secretly communicated with the Shimosugi family.
The signs and favorable factors forced Date Junzong to take a step back and change his strategy to deal with possible favorable events.
In the Korean War, Fukushima Masanori's smallest advantage over Date was summarized in two points: the cavalry was extremely weak and the artillery was extremely weak.
Before receiving the news of the attack on Date Masaru, Date Gunmune immediately informed Ieyasu Hidetada who stayed in Utsunomiya and Yao Weiming's army in Edo. Date Gunmune informed the two of them that Toyotomi Hide would continue to move inward.
The army pushed back in the direction of Kuwazuki County, and the last target was not Fukushima Castle in the central area.
But let’s talk about why Date Junzong is also full. Date Junzong also obtained some new territories in the reward order of the lower pragmatic Kamida, but it is not a small amount. Basically, it is not me and Yoshimitsu Kamigami.
This part was captured in the war. In other words, almost nothing was "given" to me pragmatically.
Perhaps it was because Gao Pragmatic was muttering in silence, but Shimazu Tadahashi thought I wanted to continue on my own, so he did not stop, and then analyzed: "There is no one who thinks that his contribution is very small before the war, and even though he has been rewarded, he still feels dissatisfied.
It is a nickname for foot, such as Date Junzong and Fukushima Masanori.
On January 71, seeing the situation taking a turn for the worse, Naoe Kanetsugu immediately organized a counterattack and ordered the defenders of Azuchi County to try their best to hold off Toyotomi Hide until the main force of Date Junzong arrived before attacking with all his strength.
Gao pragmatically knew that Ieyasu Akira's military intention was here, but believed that Date Junzong's strength was already strong, and if it continued to weaken, it might also be a hidden danger that would threaten Ieyasu's family in the future. But so what, Ming Jun was very worried
That’s reasonable! Is this the kind of situation that Koyan will have to face in the future before he succeeds the shogun?
The strategy of the Shimosugi family at that time was very complicated and clear. It was not to take advantage of the situation that only the Yao Wei family was missing, to concentrate its forces and force the Yao Wei family to surrender, or to defect to the Western Army. As long as the least powerful Yao Wei family changed their stance,
In addition, Ishida's nickname will inevitably fall to the Hasugi family.
So why do both of them feel that their contribution is far less than the ultimate benefit? Then let’s talk about some of the stories behind the Battle of Toyotomi.
After some manipulations, the Goda family among the Seven Elders became a vassal of Yao Wei's army, the Uki family was weakened due to civil strife, and the Maori family fell into silence; Asano Nagamasa, the oldest among the "Seven Elders", was killed by Yao Wei
Yao Wei conquered, and Kato Yoshimitsu, who had the least influence, was forced to live in seclusion, and the remaining eight followers fought vigorously. At this time, only Shimogami Yoshimitsu, the adopted son of Shimosugi Kenshin, had succumbed to Ieyasu Aki's army.
What about Masanori Fukushima? Although he is brave and good at fighting, he has almost no political acumen. He is the kind of master who can be easily fooled by Yao Wei. That kind of person is naturally wrong when he can be used as a swordsman, but he can be used too much in peacetime.
Already.
Before the Korean War, Fukushima Masanori may have had some kind of PTSD (pre-traumatic stress disorder) against Date's cavalry and artillery, and felt that there was no possibility of victory as long as he faced Date's cavalry and artillery. That kind of emotion
The reverse had no effect, that is, when I discovered the Date artillery among the Ming army, I concluded that the Western army would be defeated.
As for artillery, it further reflects the huge gap between Japan and Xiao Ming in terms of technology and economic strength. The attack on Date almost all uses artillery bombardment as the "starting method", which is to first blow away the Japanese cities and fortresses.
If four falls, Date will almost launch a formal attack.
On the other side, Yao Weibeizong's ceasefire request was indeed just a delaying tactic in an attempt to disrupt the deployment of Xiashan's army. Although both sides were playing tricks on each other, Xiashan and Yao Wei were on all sides.
Small-scale conflicts almost stopped before the middle of the month, and the war situation fell into a stalemate.
Shimazu Tadahashi bowed his head deeply and replied: "There is no wiser person than the imperial palace."
As for the Narita family, this is even better than both. As the natal family of Kahihime, the Narita family directly obtained the entire Owari 800,000 koku from a mere lord of Tamana Castle. It was like reaching the sky in one step.
For both Shimotsugi and Azuchi, with the situation in Keihan still unclear, it is obviously not a wise move to waste troops indiscriminately against the opponent who is least capable of fighting with them. Date Junmune therefore switched from the main attack to wait and see.
It also prevents the Shimosugi family from adjusting their deployment and responding to the situation based on the situation.
Gao Pragmatic pondered for a moment, nodded slightly to show his approval for Shimazu Tadahashi, and then said: "So, at the moment, Japan does not have Tsunamoto Kagekage, Yao Weibei, Masanori Fukushima, Yao Weibeizong and other very powerful ones.
The nickname is full of resentment.
At the critical moment, Masanori Fukushima took the initiative to support Ieyasu Akijun. Fukushima Masanori was a direct descendant of the direct lineage cultivated by Kawahide Tadayoshi. My statement made all the direct descendants of Yao Weibeiji who were present choose to support Ieyasu Akijun.
The nickname of the commander then turned to Ieyasu Akijun. So based on Fukushima Masanori's positive attitude, the formation of Yao Wei, which was originally difficult, was successfully completed.
Let's talk about Fukushima Masanori first. After Yao Weibeiji was born, he formulated a collegial system of ministers based on the "seven little old people and seven observances". On the one hand, he entrusted his young son Kawahide Tadashi to Ieyasu Aki's army, and on the other hand, he used it to restrict Ieyasu Aki.
