Chapter Ninety-Five: Chaos Arises Again
The Metropolitan Police Department, the new department in charge of internal security, had no chance to make a name for itself and was not favored by the retainers, so it could only recruit new soldiers and low-level samurai.
As expected, there are no characters worth mentioning.
However, Keiji heard about this, and specially proposed that Ichiyanagi, nicknamed "Bear", was seriously injured a few months ago, and he has not been able to raise it well until now, and it is unlikely that he will come back to charge into battle, so it is better to arrange it by the way.
After a little thought, Hisho agreed with it.
Although this guy has been messing around with unemployed prodigal sons such as Hirate Keiji and Keer Caizang for a long time, it seems that he has not been completely damaged, and in the only few contacts, he can feel that this person's nature is still calm and pragmatic.
In the 16th century, it was not realistic to completely rectify the law and order in the territory, and it is worth mentioning that it was worth mentioning that it was possible to provide a resettlement channel for retainers who had been discharged from the army due to injuries.
Intentionally planting flowers does not bloom, and unintentionally planting willows and willows into the shade.
As a result, there was the title of "Kii Headquarters of the Metropolitan Police Department, the first head of the Metropolitan Police Department, Naosue Ichiyanagi".
It has become an unwritten practice for wounded veterans to serve in the security forces.
The retainers all thought the name was very strange, very different from the way ordinary people spoke. But Tieshou Fanxiu behaved very persistently, and naturally no one would sweep away the lord's interest for trivial matters.
The first important task after Ichiyanagi Naosue took office was to cooperate with Nakamura Kazuji, Hirate Ji Yin, Kinoshita Hidenaga and others to inspect the Kii Territory.
This huge event was held at the same time as the Shikoku Conquest and the Meritorious Service Awards, and the administration department was under great pressure.
It seems that the newcomer Nagazuki Masa, who has high hopes, will have ample opportunities to perform.
It just so happened that the flat hand show also asked people to sort out the family's land and population account books.
According to the numerical estimates from the feedback, it is expected that after the completion of the Kii land inspection, the paper strength of the Hirate family will increase significantly.
First of all, the amount of land directly under the central government is expected to reach as much as 120,000 stones.
It was enough to support 300 guards and 2,000 flags, but there would not be too much surplus, and if you want to further expand your establishment, you still have to rely on commercial income.
Then, the knowledge and deeds of the retainers of the sect and the genealogy were about 105,000 stones. "Genea" in the Heite family does not mean generational service, but only as a synonym for dividing identity. Since these retainers had fixed duties, they basically gathered around the sovereign and had no time to go home to take care of them, and the day-to-day affairs of their territories were handled by the governors, which were not much different from those of the directly governed lands, but the political sense was clear.
Theoretically, Zhixing's income is distributed to the retainers themselves as a stipend, and the main family only manages it on their behalf. Although some of them are inevitably "drifting".
When the retainers received these salaries, they had to bear the corresponding military obligations, and they had to lead their soldiers to respond to the mobilization in wartime. If you go into battle as a general, the private soldiers will automatically be added to the reserves, and if you stay with the lord, the private soldiers will act with the flag team. The pressure of military service borne by the families of one family and the generation is low, and 105,000 stone corresponds to about 4,300 people.
In addition, there are more than 80 people from the three countries of Izumi, Awaji, and Kii, which are clearly included in the rule, with a total strength of 190,000 koku. They are known as the "new sento", and they are expected to provide 5,800 troops and 20,000 military service exemptions every year, but because of the preferential policies for newly occupied territory, they have had to make a big discount in the past two years.
For those daimyo who have loose rule and a low degree of centralization, they can carry out land inspections, know the actual land properties of their retainers, and set strict taxes for military service, which is already a core retainer, and cannot be said to be an outsider.
However, the standards set by Tie Honxiu are a little stricter.
There are also some forces that are superficially obedient and can be reluctantly obeyed by command, including the Saga Party, Neraizou, Tosa's Nagasamune Ibu family, Sanuki's Kagawa family, and even the Ichijo family under the control of Kawada Nagakin.
All of these add up, to say the least, there are three or four hundred thousand stones.
If the old face is discarded, it seems that he can claim to be a big name with seven or eight hundred thousand stones. It's not impossible to find a way to hype it up and tout it for millions of stones.
In fact, many of the big forces in the early Warring States period came from this, a small number of direct jurisdictions, a large number of unstable temporary subordinate forces, plus the control of some important commercial places, guaranteed income, and then went to Kyoto to get a name, it seemed to be a long time, and the momentum grew.
For example, "the eleven kingdoms of yin and yang are too long to keep Nizi for a long time".
Of course, he knows the general direction of historical progress, and will not be confused by the vanity at all, but is very calm and pragmatic, and pays attention to the grassroots ecology.
The inventory of the land and population was only the first step, which was intended to break the dependency between the landlords and the peasants, with the ultimate goal of destroying the closed system of self-sufficiency and establishing a more advanced regime.
In order to ensure the smooth progress of the land seizure matter, Hirate Honhide and his army stayed in Katsurui Castle in Awa Province for a period of time, and maintained communication with Suginobo Teruma of Shingon Buddhism and Shimoma Yoriren of Ichijo Sect, repeatedly checking whether the mentality of the two eminent monks had changed, and doing his best to stabilize the religious power.
By the way, it can also exert influence on local affairs, avoid armed conflicts, and subtly establish its own authority.
Due to various reasons, Hirate Honhide chose Kii Province as the main direction of his strategy, and was quite soft on Shikoku. However, this does not mean that it is permissive, but that competent left-behind personnel have been arranged in Awa, Sanuki, Tosa, and Iyo.
But who would have thought that the contradiction happened in an unexpected place.
On the seventh day of the fourth month, about a month or so after the land inspection, the Nakamura Kazushi came with the news that the commissioner sent to the area around Arakawa Township suddenly disappeared when he went to the field to inspect the fields, and the local Inoue, Okazaki, and Fujii families all said that they knew nothing.
Knowing this, the tie was furious. After confirming that this matter has nothing to do with the Shingon Sect and the Ichijo Sect (at least people dare not admit it), he replied, "Dig three feet into the ground to find clues."
Ten days later, on 17 April, Nakamura reported again, saying that Inoue, Okazaki, and Fujii were seriously suspected of "resisting land seizure, killing and arresting them," and applied for the transfer of troops to arrest them.
Seeing the letter, Heide Hasuhide immediately agreed, gave Iwanari Tomotsu the right of temporary moderation, and ordered him to lead two flag reserves, and mobilize the people of Izumi and Awaji to go south to quell the rebellion.
As for Nakamura Kazushi, it was obviously difficult for him to recruit the locals of Kii to arrest the villagers, as long as he could prevent the continued expansion of the "chaotic party".
Iwanari Yumotsu humbly said that he was too old and weak to take on this big responsibility alone, so he pushed the boat down the river with a tie, and made the youngest important minister, Konishi Yuki, his second lieutenant.
The three small wealthy families of Inoue, Okazaki, and Fujii, with a total of no more than 1,000 troops, are very limited in strength and are not to be worried.
Others may secretly support and sympathize with them, but as long as there are no religious forces to come forward and coordinate the contact, there will be no large-scale chaos.
With this in mind, Hirate continued to stay in Shikoku.
It was not until April 24 that an urgent report was received from the front again.
The letter said that the rebels had been sheltered by the Tsuchihashi clan, the Saga boss. Tsuchihashi Morishige, a self-proclaimed "traditional samurai", gathered 2,500 men to defend the castle.
Iwanari Youtong had only 4,000 troops in his hands, which was difficult to overcome for a while, and he was in a stalemate.
At the same time, Governor Konishi also mentioned that the wealthy families of Izumi and Awaji were resentful and demoralized when they saw that Kii-Shin Sensors had enjoyed the preferential policy of tax reduction and exemption for the first five years, and they refused to fight actively.
At this point, Hirate Honshu finally couldn't sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and immediately set off to return to Kinai.
Small tycoons such as Inoue, Okazaki, and Fujii were killed, but Tsuchihashi Morishige was a very well-known figure. Easily taking this person down may have some serious sequelae.
It's tricky.
The scale of the land inspection is carefully planned. Considering the follow-up risks, such as the head snake of the Tsuchihashi clan, is not within the scope of this time at all, and actually enjoys the privilege of exemption from inspection.
So this guy is fighting for others?
It is said that after playing the signboard of the Hatakeyama family and gaining the friendship of the Ichimune, Tsuchihashi Morishige was the first to come and sincerely surrender, and he did work hard in the conquest of Shikoku.
It is indeed difficult to deal with such a person who is stubborn and whose values are behind the times.
It took about a day and night to cross the sea from Shikoku to Kishiwada Castle, and Heite Tsunahide pondered how to deal with the turmoil on the ship.
But as soon as he set foot on the land of Hequan, he received an urgent secret letter, and after reading it, he didn't have the heart to rush to the front line as soon as possible.
There are three pieces of information in total, and the severity is gradually increasing.
The first piece of information is that the Asai family has mobilized 20,000 troops to fight a major battle against the 13,000 troops of the Urakami family on the border line between Bizen and Harima. Asai Nagamasa originally had the upper hand and expanded his advantage all the way, but in the process of pursuit, he was ambushed by the Ukita Naoya family, fell into a panic, and was forced to retreat.
The second piece of information has to do with the east. After the end of spring ploughing, Takeda Shingen suddenly moved troops against Enoe, and without declaring war, he attacked two castles and nine fortresses of the Tokugawa family. Tokugawa Ieyasu reacted and was powerless to recapture. The Hojo clan, on the other hand, was still nominally an ally of the Tokugawa, but only sent a symbolic 500 reinforcements to fight soy sauce.
The third is the drastic change in, and the intelligence officers of the Heteist family are not fully aware of the specific whole process, only knowing that it was the conflict that occurred when Shibata Katsuya tried to help Sakuma Nobumori reinstate, and the final outcome was that Nakagawa Shigema, the acting governor of Kurita-gun, appointed by Nobunaga, and his brother Tsuda Moritsuki, both died inexplicably, and Sakai Masasho, the representative of Koga County, launched a strong condemnation of Shibata and Sakuma, and Takigawa Kazuki happened to stay in Minami Omi and was also involved......
At present, Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Oda Nobutada have not made a statement on this, but no matter how you look at it, the movement will not be too small......
