"Even if we raised troops to defend ourselves out of helplessness, we are really ashamed to have a confrontation with the shogunate after all, and ten thousand deaths are not enough to apologize, and the reason for this can only be told by you in front of Lord Iseden."

"The master doesn't have to be like this. The despicable person was a retainer of the Ashikaga family tree, and he was also listed as a deacon of the shogunate, which is exactly what he did. We will investigate all the clamor of conflicts in the four seas before drawing conclusions, and we will never judge them just by looking at the superficial situation. ”

"Iseden, what a reasonable and benevolent person! Speaking of which, if it were just me, even if I died, I wouldn't dare to meet the retainers and soldiers of the general Zhengyi. It's just that the persecution of Iiao and Miki is too great, and it is related to the reputation of the Despicable Society for hundreds of years, and even the faith of 100,000 people in the Izumi country, which is really a last resort......"

"Well, what Tsukasa Omiya said is very true. In the past, when the Daise-sama served as the acting official of Izumi, you were all loyal, and you never heard of any transgressions. Now that the acting official has been changed, there will be a change, and anyone with a discerning eye knows how to sleep with this responsibility. ”

"Thank you for your understanding! In the future, with you and Lord Heping watching this territory, I think everyone will be able to live and work in peace and contentment, and repay the trust of Lord Gongfang together, and there will be no such regrettable thing! ”

"Haha, this is a matter of everyone's efforts, and it's not like I and the two of us can solve the problem once and for all......"

"Come, let me fill you with a glass of wine and toast you."

"Oops, that's so polite, come on, come on......"

……

Ise Sadahei sat on the main seat, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, staggering, and the mood was extremely good.

Obviously it was still the enemy yesterday, and it was obviously someone else's military camp, but it was holding a banquet. And as an outsider, Ise Sadako was also invited by everyone to sit on the main seat and became the only focus of the feast.

Going to the meeting alone and persuading you to surrender alone, this feeling is really good.

Next to him are the Zen master of Fukudoji Temple and the Tashiro Omiya Tsukasa of Otori Shrine, that is, the two leading figures in the Izumi God Buddha world. Led by them, a large number of temples and shrines who had rebelled against the shogunate, as well as the countrymen and merchants who had hidden behind them and supported them, were now groveling around Ise Sadako.

This time, Mao Sui recommended himself, ran over to solve the problem, and achieved obvious results.

In the past, people from all walks of life in Izumi were hostile to the two former acting officials of the shogunate faction, and they missed the leadership of Hirate Tsunohide.

Now, it has become "With you and Lord Peace watching, everyone will be able to live and work in peace and contentment", indicating that the successful resolution of the Izumi incident has achieved a high personal reputation and planted sufficient contacts.

It's not good to fight with the people of Izumi, but they are generally wealthy and willing to spend money, so this network is worth putting a lot of effort into managing it.

Of course, making peace with the "rebels" so easily would certainly further damage the little prestige that the shogunate had left. However, this is only temporary, and in the long run, the deacon of the government office, Ise Sadako, needs to strengthen his personal strength so that he can get rid of the constraints of political enemies and better serve the shogunate in the future. Therefore, this act is by no means harmful to the public and private interests.

As for the question of whether he will continue to be loyal to the Ashikaga family after his personal strength is cultivated in the future......

The temple members of Izumi are also very satisfied with this.

After all, it is only the poor mountains and bad waters that produce "Diao people", and the propertied classes in the developed coastal areas are very good at enjoying life and cherishing life very much. Zen Master Ryō and Tashiro Omiya are not as brave and ruthless as their counterparts in the countryside. These two people lent money to collect rent, and they were good at opening up to the little daughter-in-law and eldest daughter of the tenant family, but they were really on the battlefield and could scare their pants.

As long as the knife does not cut their bodies, they will never fight against the regular army. Even if it is cut on the body, as long as the force is lighter and the frequency is slower, I would rather break the fortune and avoid disasters.

Helplessly, the stunned young officials sent by the shogunate were too much, and they wanted to confiscate so many properties at once.

How can we tolerate the wealth accumulated by the monasteries over the years, all of which were obtained through legal channels such as loans, eating out of households, collecting protection money, and believers being "voluntarily" donated.

The left and right are always going to break the fortune, so they simply ignore the pain and hire mercenaries to fight against the shogunate.

Saga's mercenaries are expensive, but you get what you pay for! What's more, this money is to be shared among all temples and shrines, and when the time comes, you can make another fuss from it.

In addition, the condolence money sent by the Tieshou Bunxiu faction secretly also played a great role.

Otherwise, it will be really difficult to satisfy the appetite of the Saga mercenaries.

……

Tsuchihashi Morishige from Kii silently gulped down from the angle and was dismissive of the performances of Ise Sadako and others.

In the hearts of the Zaga people, the real man should be seen on the battlefield, and this kind of political occasion is neither understood nor disdainful to understand.

However, the scene still has to be talked about, collect money to do things, mercenaries must have professionalism, and there is no need to demolish the employer. As for where the money comes from and who the enemy is, it doesn't matter.

Ise Sadako was also sharp-eyed, and when he saw a big man in Kii in the corner, he took the initiative to step forward and greet: "This must be the world-famous hero, Tsuchihashi Wakatafu?" ”

"It's despicable." Tsuchihashi Mamoru bowed heavily and responded: "Let's be considered a hero, not to mention famous in the world, it is really a blessing to meet you as a deacon of the shogunate." ”

Tsuchihashi Shoushige tried his best to pretend to understand etiquette, and he also imitated the Kyoto accent to speak, but with his clothes and appearance, he had an aura of a monkey. Zen Master Lijing, Tashiro Omiya Tsukasa and others felt disgusted in their hearts.

Only Ise Sadako behaved very kindly, took another half step forward, looked at the other party's burly figure with appreciation, and said with emotion: "Many rural villagers know the Suzuki clan of Saga, but the contemptible people know very well that the Suzuki clan is just a large number of people, and when it comes to martial arts, they are not as good as your Excellency's Tsuchihashi family." ”

Ise Sadako's words were clearly meant to be a compliment. The reputation of the Suzuki and Tsuchihashi families in the Saga Party is almost the same, the Suzuki family is more tactful, and there are more peripheral henchmen, and the Tsuchihashi family has a tougher style and only accepts hardcore younger brothers, and it is difficult to distinguish between the combat power of the two sides.

Originally, it was a set of close words, but when Tsuchihashi Mamoru heard the three words "Suzuki", his face changed, and the corners of his mouth sneered, and he sneered: "It's not as good as their Suzuki family, last year I did a single business of equal affairs, and I was full of fat, and now I'm afraid I can't look down on us Tsuchihashi." ”

As soon as these words came out, people couldn't answer them at all.

At that time, the Hirate Honshu attacked Shikoku and spent 4,600 kan to hire 3,000 heterogeneous people, most of whom were from the Suzuki Party, but the Tsuchihashi Party also contributed some manpower. Later, Tieshou was quite satisfied with the business, so he rounded up and gave 5,000 yuan, which was equivalent to a reward of 400 yuan. According to the idea of the Tsuchihashi Party, the tip should also be divided equally according to the head, but at that time, the speaker Suzuki Shigehide felt that the Suzuki Party had more casualties and contributed more, so he only gave a small symbolic amount, which was basically equivalent to monopolizing 400 kan.

One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, Suzuki and Tsuchihashi originally had a lot of contradictions, so they almost turned against each other. Later, the people of Izumiji Temple came to ask for help, but Shigehide Suzuki had plenty of money, so he didn't want to get involved in this kind of troublesome matter related to the shogunate. And Tsuchihashi Morishige wanted to oppose him, so he took the Tsuchihashi Party's army with him and accepted the hire.

The twists and turns in this, where can Ise Sadaiko carry it clearly? He could only smile and forcibly change the topic, scolding in his heart.

"Anyway, the weather is nice today......"

"It was raining yesterday, but today the weather is sunny and cloudless, so Ise-sama came just in time!"

Ise Sadako was speechless again, talking about the weather ordinarily, how could there be a sarcasm in the mouth of Tsuchibashi Morishige? Can this person chat? How can you always talk to death?

Just when the two of them were staring at each other and were speechless in embarrassment, suddenly there was a rumbling sound outside. If you listen carefully, it doesn't look like thunder, not to mention that the weather is not clear?

Then I saw a heavily armed soldier with the crest of the Tsuchihashi family in his body hurrying into the military tent, rudely pushing away the guards at the door, kneeling down in front of the Tsuchihashi guard, and shouting: "Big brother! It was gunshots! We were attacked by an enemy disguised as a caravan! It is not clear the identity of the other party, but the enemy is quite capable of fighting, with at least a thousand people and about three hundred iron cannons! ”

"What?"

Tsuchihashi Shouzhong shouted angrily, and when he jumped up like a spring, he said, "Don't accompany!" And he took it in stride.

The rest of them looked at each other, stunned for a while, and then woke up like a dream, and hurriedly put on their equipment, called out to their subordinates, and turned into a pot of porridge.

Then Ise Sadako's personal soldiers arrived, only saying that there was an enemy attack, and the specific situation was not clear.

After another moment, the monks and soldiers of the temple community also came to report in disheveled clothes, and the news brought was varied, some said that they had been attacked by 3,000 people, some said that the enemy had 5,000, and there were 810,000 or even 20,000. Some people claim to have seen the family crest of the Miyoshi family, some say that it was the local people who are causing chaos, and some say that the shogunate army has come to eradicate the roots, and Ise Sadako is just here to delay the army...... All in all, it is not even clear what is going on, let alone organizing resistance.

After a long time of chaos, Ise Sadako's mind was clear, he saw that he was under suspicion, and he was not busy distinguishing whether it was or not, but took advantage of the fact that most of the people did not react, and decisively took his own soldiers and ran away in the opposite direction of the gunshot.

After setting an example, Zen Master Ryō and Tashiro Omiya also "saw the wisdom and thought together", and immediately gathered their cronies to join the runaway army, and handed over the sneak attack to the mercenaries and miscellaneous soldiers to deal with.

Everyone has heard that the group of enemies who came to attack inexplicably just now were called "quite capable of fighting" by the famous Saga Tsuchihashi family, and it is obvious that the people who came were not good! Anyway, Hequan Bing is weak, just run.

Ise Sadako is quite upset about this, he has spent a lot of effort to train a little bit of private soldiers, which is completely inferior to the Saga Tsuchihashi family, and is only a little stronger than the sake bags and rice bags of the people of Izumi Temple, which is too shocking.

But now is not the time to pursue this, wow, the most important thing is to quickly figure out what happened, everyone discussed it well, why did you kill someone who didn't know what was halfway?

Why is this so?

For the first time, with the qualifications to deal with major emergencies on my own, and the connections that will last a lifetime, the two joys overlapped. This double joy has brought more and more joy, and it should have been a dreamlike happy time...... Why, however, is this happening?

Just when Ise Sadahei was immersed in the problem of Baixue and couldn't extricate himself, a group of people ran for a long time, the sound of iron cannons and shouts of killing in their ears gradually faded away, and their hearts relaxed a little, and they were about to distinguish the situation, when they suddenly met and killed a small army in front of them, which frightened people's courage.

Both the Zen master and the Tashiro Omiya Tsukasa were about to fall to their knees and surrender, but when they saw that the person who came was playing the banner of the Tie family, their knees were a little straighter.

"Poor Monk...... Naiping is in charge...... Old friend, I don't know if Your Excellency ...... "The old monk Jing Zen Master still wants to maintain his manners, but he has already run out of breath, and he can't say anything.

And Tashiro Omiya Tsukasa was much more straightforward, waving his hands and shouting, "I am the lackey that the master of the Taihei hand has placed in Izumi!" Please also see a little help in working together! ”

Ise Sadako turned his head and covered his face with his hands, trying to pretend that he didn't know this person, but it was too late.

The retainer who led the team was a young and heroic man, with more than 100 cavalry and several carriages behind him. The young man couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Tashiro Omiyaji's words, but he immediately adjusted his expression, turned over and dismounted, and said loudly: "It's the retainer Yamauchi Kazutoyo in the lower area, and the one who comes is Lord Ise Sadako?" And there are also Jozen masters and Tashiro Omiya Division? ”

When Ise Sadakin heard this, his heart was a little relieved, but he also had to stand up, and Shi Li replied: "The contemptible person is Ise Sadak, who came to mediate the dispute between the Izumi Temple Society and the acting official, but he was attacked by unknown people on the way, and he had to flee here. The current situation is urgent, and I ask the Yamanuchi Temple to protect him. ”

On the other side, Yamauchi Kazutoyo hurriedly bowed down and replied respectfully: "It's rude!" Ise-sama, please be calm, I was ordered by the subordinate to be in charge of the subordinate position, and I came to warn you that someone might attack, and it seems that I was late...... I ask for your forgiveness. ”

"How dare you, thank you for the tie......"

Ise Sadako slowly collected his mood. But before he finished speaking, Tashiro Omiya Tsukasa next to him rushed to stand up and asked in a hurry:

"May I ask the mountain...... Mountain ......"

"Contemptible Yamauchi Kazutoyo."

An embarrassed but polite smile appeared on Yamauchi's face.

"Yes, yes, yes! May I ask Yamanuchiden, where should I go to ensure safety? Tashiro Omiya Tsukasa spoke earnestly, clearly cherishing his life.

"Well...... Yamauchi Kazutomi hesitated slightly, "I once said that if things change, only Kaimachi in Izumi can guarantee safety......"

"That's right, that's right!" Tashiro Omiya Tsukasa immediately turned overjoyed, "I see you have extra horses and vehicles there, so we can quickly go to Kaimachi!" ”

At this time, the iron cannon and the shouting of killing in the distance seemed to be louder again, and Tashiro Omiyaji's face was white again, and he took three steps and two steps, and without waiting for the consent of others, he jumped on an empty horse.

"Aha......" Kazutoyo Yamauchi laughed awkwardly twice, and announced along the water: "Since that's the case...... Without further ado, let's go with us! ”

Ise Sadako also rode on the horse, and the expression on his face changed continuously, and finally sighed faintly.

Joy and sorrow, but desperate life, this day's experience is really rich......
