The farce of "inheriting the Spo family" was not the first conflict between the shogunate and the Oda family, but it strengthened Nobunaga's decision to return to Gifu Castle immediately. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info But before that, we have to sort out the current bills to see what territories have been obtained and what forces are still resisting.

Not many people were called, except for Shibata, Niwa and Hirate, even Sakuma was excluded, but it was Akechi Mitsuhide and Muto Shunhide, who had just joined, who were able to attend. As for the other newly attached powerful factions, they were not summoned here because they were not easy to control and difficult to trust.

According to scholars, since the Oda family successfully went to Raku, the Sengoku period in the narrow sense has ended, and the next is the prologue of the Azuchi period. This meeting was the first meeting of the Azuchi period.

"Although Shangluo is successful, there are many people who do not obey their own family." In private, Nobunaga didn't even bother to mention the name of Ashikaga Shogun, but directly put himself in the position of the person in power.

Akechi Mitsuhide confidently took over the conversation and replied: "Among the five kingdoms of Kinai, Yamashiro and Izumi are already under control, and Hanoi and Yamato can also be controlled by Hatakeyama and Matsunaga. ”

"What the wise man said is very true!" Muto Shunhide almost immediately grabbed the topic, "Even if the samurai family wants to counterattack, it will be a matter for the future, and the top priority is to solve the other forces." ”

"What is it?"

Nobunaga didn't care about Muto's rudeness at all, but asked calmly, it seems that in the heart of this highness, fame is desirable.

"One is Ishiyama Honganji, the second is a merchant from Kaimachi, and the third is a monk from Nara. The influence of these three factions in is very great, but their attitudes are still unclear, and if they can submit to their own family, they can win the hearts of the people, wealth, and good name. ”

Obviously, Ishiyama Honganji represents people's hearts, Kaimachi represents wealth, and Nara represents good names.

Akechi and Muto are both newcomers with a strong desire to express, but the former is well-versed in poetry and elegance, and gives people the impression that there are more learned people than samurai, so they are not very annoying. And the latter is almost distracted, unscrupulous, and climbs up ********, but it is difficult for people to appreciate it.

"Hmm...... What a point! Nobunaga nodded slowly, and then looked sideways at Murai Sadakatsu, "Yoshibei! How much money has the family spent since they went to Luo? ”

"This, it's about five thousand six hundred."

"How much is it as a reward?"

"Three thousand nine hundred."

In order to ensure the order of Kyoto, it was strictly forbidden to hunt with people, and the soldiers could not lose their fighting spirit, so they scattered a large amount of silver coins to make up for it during the Shangluo period. Corresponding to this huge expenditure, there were too few domains directly assigned to Oda's name, and many wealthy clans were subdued on the condition of keeping them safe.

"It's too much to spend, so I'm going to requisition 20,000 kan from Kaimachi."

"20,000 ......"

Niwa subconsciously felt that it was too much.

Shibata disagreed: "In my opinion, those merchants would not dare to be too many, if the family does not allow them to operate in......"

"Kwon Roku has a point!"

Nobunaga nodded.

"Then Your Highness...... Is this to be the norm, or is it just one time? Niwa continued to ask.

If Kai Machi were to pay 20,000 yuan a year for the military, I am afraid that those merchants would prefer not to do business under Oda's control.

"Later, later."

Nobunaga's words relieved Niwa, but then—

"Let Ishiyama send 5,000 guan of military expenses, as for the temples in Nara, after all, they are all high monks, and you only need to send 1,000 kan."

As soon as Nobunaga finished speaking, Akechi Mitsuhide and Muto Shunhide couldn't help but be taken aback.

It was not uncommon for the samurai who controlled to ask for money from the Kaimachi, after all, the monopoly merchants had to rely on the local administration to maintain their transcendent status, but the monk ......

"Instead of giving alms to the temple, but asking the monks for money in turn?"

Akechi and Muto glanced at each other, only to realize that Hirata and the others were all right.

"Those who have always been sects in Shishan, I'm afraid they can't be regarded as monks!" Nobunaga snorted lightly, "Since we are doing business, we naturally need to share the worries of the imperial court and the shogunate." ”

At this time, he held up the shogunate sign again.

"However, Nara's Horyu-ji Temple and Kofuku-ji Temple are rare temples in the world...... I lost my words under it. As a cultural person, Akechi Mitsuhide subconsciously resisted this, but when he saw the gaze of the lord, he immediately retreated.

Either/or, often going to extremes is also a kind of character in reality, and Wise Mitsuhide happens to be this kind of person, seeing that he can't stop this trip, he suggests:

"Your Highness, the Nichiren sect you believe in also has a lot of power in, so why don't you support them to fight against the forces of the Ishiyama Ichijo sect and the Nara Hosho sect."

"Not bad. But do you need to find a suitable monk? ”

"I know a master of the Nichiren sect who was crowned a master by His Majesty."

Tieshou said suddenly.

"Who is it?"

"His name is Asayama Hisaka, and he was originally a diplomatic monk of the Nunzi family, and a few years ago he donated thousands of yuan to the imperial court to repair the palace. Now the Izumo Niko family is gone. ”

So he is also in a hurry to find the next endorsement force.

Nobunaga nodded slightly.

"As for the merchants of Kaimachi, I'm also going to let someone who is familiar with the environment serve as an envoy."

Hey? Is there anyone here who is familiar with Kaimachi?

Everyone looked at each other, but Nobunaga just clapped his hands, beckoned him to come closer, and commanded:

"Let Matsunaga Dan come in!"

Matsunaga bullet positive?

There may be two Ashikaga left horse heads in this magical world, but there is only one Matsunaga Danmasa, and that person's name is Kuhide.

……

"Contemptible pine permanent show see Your Highness."

This is a sturdy old man, with a slightly rugged appearance and a scar on his face, and if you ignore the name, the first impression is that he is a brave and unruly Eastern samurai like Shibata Katsuie.

"Lord Gongkata (Ashikaga Yoshiaki) asked me to kill you." Nobunaga began with this sentence.

Matsunaga, however, shook his head without fear and replied:

"It's all your credit that he was able to sit in this position, so as long as you don't kill me."

"Aren't you here to join the shogunate?"

"The so-called shogunate is just a shelf, and it is just subservient to the Oda family."

Maybe he knew that all the important ministers of Oda were present, so he was so unscrupulous.

"It's rare that Matsunaga Danzheng can have this heart, but can your sins be offset like this?"

Nobunaga sat calmly, only glancing at him out of the corner of his eye.

"I don't know what a righteous army is, and I don't know what kind of sin I have. The reason why you surrendered is because Your Highness has an army of 30,000, plus the allies have 50,000, which is not something I can resist. ”

"Oh? And what about the sin of killing the general? ”

"Is it the stupid man from before? Obviously being a weak person, but self-righteously provoking the strong, this is his own way of death. ”

"And what about usurping the Miyoshi family?"

"Your Highness, I only seized part of the territory of the Miyoshi family, but you not only eliminated the main family, Oda Yamatomori, but also crusaded against the main family, the Spo clan, and even ...... in the future."

The last sentence is a hint that Oda will crusade against the Ashikaga clan in the future, but it is not appropriate to say it here.

"So you mean that you won't be loyal to me?"

"In the next is only loyal to the irresistible strong. When I was in the prime of life in the Miyoshi Repair (Changqing), I was also a loyal servant of the Miyoshi family, but then the repair of the old man was old and faint and buried the family business, if I didn't take it, someone else took it, why not take it? If Oda's power starts to decline in a few years, I might as well find some opportunity to oppose you. ”

After a moment of silence—

"Hahaha...... Nobunaga laughed uncontrollably, "That's a good point! If you can complete the task of convincing the Kaimachi merchants, you will forgive your previous sins. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness! In fact, the key person of the mission, the old man has already brought it over. ”

"Oh? Who is it? ”

"A merchant as ambitious as I am, who is already among the thirty-six people in Kaimachi, is still not satisfied, and wants to obtain higher power and the status of a regular samurai."

Businessmen are profit-seeking, and this is the norm. If you want to be a samurai, it can only show that he is a businessman with great ideals and pursuits.

"What's his name?"

"It's Sohisa Imai of Naya."

"Let him in!"

"Yes."

……

The Warring States Period, in a broad sense, began with the Onin Rebellion. After a hundred years of decay, it has gradually become a "fashion", so people often do not have too high moral requirements in terms of etiquette. Even if a samurai has fled, defected, or killed his master, he will not be criticized too much - unless it is particularly frequent.

But this argument is not valid for Matsunaga Hide. Killing a general is a thing that violates righteousness and is secondary, and all the heroes of the world - but if there are many great names that can be called heroes, who else but Uesugi Kenshin takes righteousness as the same thing? The point is that this is a game-breaker for everyone.

"I didn't expect to work with this person." Niwa Nagahide shook his head and sighed as he walked ahead.

"This person is just good at conspiracy, and he won't be a big problem." Shibata Katsuya is still the most confident person.

"Poison is sometimes a cure...... "Hite, too, plagiarizes the game's famous quote without indiscipline.

"I think the prisoner is right." Akechi Mitsuhide seemed to have inadvertently explained, "Although the crime of killing a general is unforgivable, if you want to end the war as soon as possible and dominate the world, no matter what kind of person lives and what method you have, you can use it." ”

This seemingly casual sentence made Fan Xiu's heart tighten.

Either way......
