Chapter 1112: The Anger of Maori Regularity
Originally, when he heard that he spent money to buy grain, Fukada Valley wanted to sneer, if there was really silver, then what else would he say. But before he could complain, he had already heard the statement of 500,000 taels of silver, and immediately the whole person was petrified in place, and then his eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief, "500,000 taels of silver, is this true?" ”
It's no wonder that Fukada is so excited. At this time, the silver money used was mostly Yongle Tongbao, and the words "governance" and "wood" on the back of the Yongle Tongbao money were all cast by the Wa Kingdom. And such a circulation currency in Ashikaga Yoshimasa after the real power, began to reform, the copper used in the currency is almost gone, replaced by other miscellaneous items, the original Yongle Tong treasure money calligraphy is exquisite, the casting is exquisite, neat, one of the exquisite currencies in the history of Chinese currency. But the Yongle Tongbao that appeared in the Wa Kingdom is indeed extremely rough, without any value, and has no purchasing power, even if the people don't recognize this thing.
If the people do not recognize it, the effect of this thing is nothing. What is hateful is that the money that Ashikaga Yoshimasa gave to the generals below is indeed this, which is equivalent to letting the horse run again, and not giving the horse grazing. But it is precisely because of the lack of money and food in his hands that he can better control the various armies and let them use them for their own purposes.
Today's Fukada Valley has a large number of rough and worthless "Yongle Tongbao", with these, the people do not recognize, how to buy grain, which is also one of the reasons why he is worried. But now, when he heard that there were 500,000 taels of silver available, it was no wonder that his eyes lit up.
All of Fukada Valley's performances were seen by Matsumoto Kazama, and he said immediately: "Of course it's true, how can I lie about such a big thing, if you don't believe it, we can go to the mountains and forests ten miles away now and bring the silver." ”
"Okay." Fukada Tani is not shying away from anything, in his opinion, nothing is as important as silver. And silver is silver only when it is in one's own hands.
At that moment, Fukada Valley summoned his own escort team, and a group of hundreds of people left the camp overnight and went straight to the mountains and forests ten miles away.
Fukatani believed in Matsumoto Kazama so much, that is, he knew that if the other party wanted to kill him, there was no need to make such a big detour, and he could kill himself just now if he wanted to. And the truth did not disappoint him, and sure enough, he found ten large chests, each of which contained 50,000 pieces of silver.
After the counting, Fukada Valley was naturally satisfied, and together with Matsumoto Kazama, he and the members of the escort team returned to the barracks with ten large boxes.
When he returned, it was dawn, and many soldiers had already left the big tent and were preparing for breakfast. This saw the scene of the return of the general and his party, and coincidentally, one of the boxes was also knocked over on the ground, and when the white and dazzling silver fell to the ground, it attracted a lot of onlookers, and then the news spread, and the fact that Fukada Valley had 500,000 taels of silver was also known to everyone.
Returning to the main tent, Fukada Valley has changed his previous decadent state and has become extremely excited and excited. And Matsumoto Kazama's next words on the side made him even more excited. "Fukada-kun, I have a plan, I can save these 500,000 taels of silver, and I can get enough grain and grass, but I don't know if I have the guts."
"Oh? What's the plan? "With fifty
Ten thousand taels of silver were placed in front of him, and Fukada Valley was not suspicious of Matsumoto Kazama, so he asked eagerly.
Knowing that the time was ripe, Matsumoto Kazama had no intention of selling Sekiko, so he immediately told his idea. It's very simple to say, it's to grab food.
Snatching food is a common thing for the rebel army. But for Fukada Valley, which has an army of 50,000 people, it will be difficult to gather it if it is all about robbing the people of food, because these people will not stupidly put the food at home, but hide it.
And without sufficiently accurate intelligence, not only will they not be able to grab enough food, but they will likely anger the people, lead to a scuffle, and damage their own strength. Therefore, this is not what ordinary armies are willing to do, but if they rob other armies of food, the effect is completely different.
In the same army, grain and grass are naturally concentrated, so there is no need to look east and west, and a large amount of grain can be gathered to solve the urgent need. The food grabbing given by Matsumoto Kazama is the food grabbing the army. When he said his thoughts one by one, some of them kept nodding their heads until the last laugh.
Half an hour later, the junior generals of the army, who were already waiting outside the main tent, were finally allowed to enter the main tent.
In the past, these grassroots leaders looked down on Fukada Valley, and some people even thought about where they would go in the event of a war. But now, with the temptation of these 500,000 taels of silver, everyone's mentality has completely changed.
Money can be channeled, not to mention facing ordinary people.
Fukatani was also watching everyone who entered the big tent, and when he saw that their mental outlook had completely changed, and even many people looked at him with flattering eyes, his heart was not to mention how happy. At this moment, he finally had the feeling of being in charge of an army.
Waiting for all the young generals to enter the tent, Fukada Taniya, who was in the first place, finally spoke: "Okay, now that everyone is here, then there are some things that can be told to you directly." We're an outcast, everybody knows, right? ”
How could the people in the congregation not know about this, for this reason, everyone involuntarily nodded. But there are also some people who don't understand why the general suddenly said such a thing at this time, and what is the intention?
"The next thing we have to face is the Five-Star Army, an army with a strong firearms advantage, you know."
In exchange, everyone still nodded their heads, and they became more and more confused about Fukada Valley's intentions.
"In the face of such an opponent, we are equivalent to sending us to death, do you have any opinions?"
It's still the same as everyone nodding in unison. So, Fukada Tani said his true intentions, "Even if I know that it is death, then as a commander, how can I see everyone die, so General Ben decided not to attack Heiankyo anymore, we turned to San'in Michi, and attacked Mori Masanori, and the grain and grass in his hands are the target of our operation this time." ”
That's right, that's the idea that Matsumoto Kazama gave Fukada Tani. The so-called grain grabbing is the grain and grass of the 100,000-strong army of Maori Zheng, who is sending troops to San'in Province.
is also under the command of the general, and the Maori is an absolute lineage, not only the soldiers are young and middle-aged, but also the grain and grass
Very rich. If you can rob them of their food, it will definitely solve the problem of running out of their own food and grass. At the same time, it is equivalent to showing loyalty to King Wunan and making a contribution, which is not in vain to take the 500,000 taels of silver, but also to find a way out for his future.
Fukatani's decision was heard in everyone's ears, and they were naturally surprised. They also learned that the grain and grass in the army had only been eaten for four days, and it was impossible to survive without grabbing food.
While everyone was still digesting this decision, Fukatani said in an astonishing way, and he would take out 100,000 taels of silver as a reward for the best performing troops in this battle. As soon as this remark came out, it immediately attracted everyone's interest, 100,000 taels of silver, which is definitely a lot of money for the hard-working Japanese army leaders. They are also willing to fight for this.
With silver as a reward, the military council was a great success. Even in the main account, the young generals are still fighting for who will take the lead. Later, Fukada Valley said that there was no priority in this battle, and whoever could grab the most grain and transport it back would be the biggest winner, and whoever would get the reward of 100,000 taels.
Now that the meeting is gone, when the meeting is dispersed, many young generals either secretly unite to enhance their strength, or they want to eat alone and eat alone. What's more, when they returned to the military tent, they began to order troops, as if they were afraid that if they took a step at night, they would not get any benefits.
People say that interest is the best teacher.
When a person wants to do something wholeheartedly, there is nothing that cannot be done or cannot be done. When everyone's initiative is fully mobilized, the energy exerted will also be astonishing.

Three days later, Mori Masanori, who was approaching San'in Michi with the main army and had defeated the army of Akechi Naganobu several times in a row, suddenly heard the bad news that the grain and grass of the rear army had been robbed by the 50,000 weak troops led by Fukada Valley.
"How is this possible?" When he heard the news on the first day, Maori was full of disbelief. He didn't believe that this army, which was about to be abandoned, still had such a ability, not only daring to attack him, but also really achieving his goal.
It's just that no matter how much he doesn't believe it, the facts are there, and the news of the grain and grass being robbed comes one after another. There is even news of the loss of troops and the loss of generals, which says that the 50,000 weak troops in the Fukata Valley are like being beaten with chicken blood, and they have exerted 12% of their strength, and they have defeated the elite Japanese army that protects the grain and grass by relying on the number of people.
In particular, these weak armies don't play cards according to common sense at all, they are a swarm of bees when they appear, and there is no distinction between primary and secondary when attacking, etc., they are completely indiscriminate, which makes people don't know how to defend if they want to defend.
In any case, the fact that grain and grass were robbed and more than 3,000 soldiers were lost was ironclad. Mori Masanori, who had no food and grass, had to suppress the decision to continue the attack on Akechi Naganobu, and retreated, while converging the rear army, and at the same time asking the general for help and begging for food and grass.
Fukada Valley's sudden attack caught Ashikaga Yoshimasa off guard. Originally, this was a gift he prepared for Heiankyo, but he didn't want to lift a stone and hit his own foot, which made him even more depressed and wanted to vomit blood. If it weren't for the rape and destruction of Hiraida's forces, I am afraid that he would directly return with the army and kill him and wipe out Fukada Valley.
