Shinohara Nagafang and Miyoshi Changyi, although they are both important ministers of the Miyoshi family, but the former works for Yixian, and the latter shares Changqing's worries, and they don't have too deep personal relationships. Later, www.biquge.info was forced to work together, and there were many times when they didn't speculate, and there were few times when they had a heart.

However, Changfang forced Changyi to live in seclusion, but this matter was not for personal grudges at all, but out of public intentions.

The strategic thinking of the two is very different, and they are not easy to deal with. However, the current situation is so grim, as one of the few wise men in the Three Good Remnant Party, they can only survive by huddling together to keep warm.

Therefore, although Shinohara Nagafang made a gesture of seizing power, he was raised high and fell gently, and he still saluted in private, let alone struck a blow. And Miyoshi Changyi also showed a rare obedient attitude, took the initiative to shave the ordination, and also instructed his son Changhu to take care of the retainers and not to make trouble.

Outsiders thought that the two sides had torn their faces, but in the end it was just a peaceful abdication, and the group of people who withdrew from did not rebel, but reined in a little and gave up the right to speak. The locals of Shikoku breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and no longer insisted on chasing and fighting.

It is still walking on thin ice, but with the joint efforts of the leaders of both sides, the ice is not in danger of breaking for the time being.

At the beginning, the two were the leaders of their respective camps, and considering the emotional factors of the younger brothers, they couldn't be too close. On the contrary, after Miyoshi Nagayi lived in seclusion, Shinohara Nagafang would appear on time every three days to discuss the plan with him.

Groups are always selfish and short-sighted, and when hundreds of people speak together, it is generally impossible to draw any useful conclusions. But working with a few long-term visioners can temporarily put aside the conflict of self-interest and break through the prisoner's dilemma.

Because of their unfamiliarity with each other, Shinohara-nagabo and Miyoshi Nagaitsu finally reached an agreement after difficult negotiations. The former showed limited support for the "counteroffensive", while the latter also abandoned the unrealistic idea of achieving it overnight. The two put aside the battle over the route and set a small goal together.

This "small goal" is to fold Oda's wings first. They targeted the new favorites in front of the "puppet princess", the lackeys of the Oda family, the guardian acting officer of the Izumi country, and the order of the three good affairs, the scheming, despicable, ruthless, and unscrupulous Tie Show.

Miyoshi Changyi heard that "the planned plan has achieved the first step", but he didn't see joy, just bowed slightly, tightened his clothes, curled up further, and replied angrily: "This person is by no means easy to deal with, not so easy to be fooled, or need to wait longer." ”

Shinohara Nagabo's expression remained unchanged when he heard this, and he patiently continued to ask, "Should we set up some doubts?" ”

"There's no need for that!" Miyoshi Changyi's cloudy eyes showed a little contempt, "The current situation is very good." Nobuyasu Ataka was originally really going to defect, so a wise person like Hisho Hoshu would definitely believe in him in the end, and we can't control the process in between. If you do superfluous things, it will cause extraneous branches. ”

Shinohara's Nagabo said: "I heard that he took Iwanari Yutong as his general, Matsuyama Shigeharu and Kosai Naganobu as his deputies, and gathered the people of Izumi Province, a total of about 2,000 people, and assembled at the port of Tamina. ”

"The people?" Miyoshi Changyi frowned, "Now the spring ploughing is not over yet!" Are the people willing to help send troops? In the past, they were not so deferential to my family. ”

"Alas......" Shinohara Nagabo shook his head helplessly, "After the hi hand Fushu entered Izumi, he adopted many despicable means to divide, co-opt, and suppress the people of the country, and now the people of Izumi are completely out of harmony." Not to mention the generation of Terada's lord killer and glory, he already has a place in the assessment of Kishiwada Castle, and the two families of Manabe and Tamawa are actively mobilizing their relatives and friends to compete for another similar position. ”

"This guy does have some wisdom and knows what this group of rats wants." Miyoshi Changyi scolded weakly, and then asked: "But there are always some people who are unwilling to send troops to delay the farming, right?" ”

"In that case, you can be exempted from military service if you pay a fee, but at the same time, you will have to hand over your equipment...... "Shinohara Nagabo explained the policy in general.

When Miyoshi Changyi heard this, he was surprised: "Can it still be like this?" Doesn't this reduce his own military resources? The country of Izumi, all mobilized, only barely has nearly 10,000 soldiers, and now that he is exempted from this, how can he have enough military strength to fight in the four countries? ”

"Hirate Hadoshu recently hired a group of people from Kii. Those thieves in Kii have been enemies of my family for many years, and it is said that they gave a good price. ”

"Saga and Neto? That's not cheap! How did he scavenge so much money in Hequan? ”

"This person can be said to be a skilled collector, and created new policies such as 'printing and signing tax' and 'auction'. I have sent someone to inquire that with these two items, it is estimated that we can earn an additional 20,000 or 30,000 yuan of silver every year, which is equivalent to cultivating an additional 50,000 to 80,000 stone of land. ”

Hearing this, Miyoshi Changyi couldn't help but straighten up and said hurriedly: "What kind of new deal is this?" Can it be emulated? ”

"Stamp duty is fine. According to the scale of Shengrui City, it can collect more than 10,000 yuan of assets every year. But the auction couldn't help it. Izumi's 'Gokachi City' has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the people behind it are just following suit. Shinohara's Nagabo still stood up straight, revealing the news he had gotten fifteen.

"According to what you say, the trade profits of the Izumi Kingdom will be grasped by him in this form, and the people of the country will also be subdued, and the territory has been completely calmed down......" Miyoshi Changyi's face became ugly.

"It's not all. I won't be long before the temple will be embezzled. Previously, Shinohara's Nagabo had maintained a relatively objective narrative attitude, and he didn't even hesitate to say beautiful words about the draw. However, when it comes to the affairs of the temple, he shows obvious disgust, expressing his dissatisfaction with the religious policy of the flat hand.

Miyoshi Chang Yiqi said: "Izumi is very close to Kyoto, and there are many temples and shrines that have obtained the right to 'not lose or enter' since ancient times, and if he dares to stretch out his hand, he will offend many people behind him." ”

Shinohara, shaking his head with a wry smile, replied, "But what if the temples themselves ask to give up their privileges?" ”

"What kind of trick is this...... Miyoshi Changyi's tone also looked a little helpless.

"It's the so-called 'joint autonomy of temples and communities'. Heide did have half a year to let the temples handle their own affairs, and only symbolically registered the number of weapons. But two months ago, the Rinzai sect's Toriya Soyi arrived in Izumi and was greeted as a guest of honor by local monks and priests. It's just that as soon as this person came, a lot of disputes gradually arose within the temple, and for some reason there was a call for 'let the guardian Daidai Heite-sama administer justice'. When Shinohara's name was mentioned, he deliberately looked at the other party.

"Tiger Zai Zongyi...... Is it a personal disciple of Master Kuagawa? Could it be that he is in cahoots with a tie? Sure enough, the expression on Miyoshi Changyi's face also became subtle, "The disciple of such a high-ranking monk actually came to be the enemy of my Miyoshi family." What a ......."

As a loyal believer of the Rinzai sect, Changyi greatly respected Kuaikawa Shaoxi, who never succumbed to the samurai forces, and felt a little uncomfortable to be an enemy of his high-ranking disciples. But Shinohara, who grew up at Izawa Shrine, believed in traditional Shinto since he was a child, and didn't have much affection for Buddhism, so he complained unceremoniously: "Most people in the world see the wind and turn the rudder, and even the former important ministers of the family have surrendered to the flat Tsunohide, let alone a monk?" ”

This "former important minister" is naturally worth Iwanari Yutong. Compared with the untrusted Matsunaga Show, his change of flag caused a lot of repercussions. Although Shinohara's Nagabo is polite on the surface, he will occasionally throw the matter out to stimulate Miyoshi Nagai, who has a close relationship with Iwasari, to prevent the rhythm of the conversation from being completely controlled by the other party.

Sure enough, when Changyi heard this, his expression was very embarrassed, and he could no longer stand up to the "high monk" shelf, so he could only pretend to cough a few times, and get down to business again: "Although this person is indeed a fierce enemy, the family can know themselves and the enemy, and continue to obtain information about. And the other party has no roots in Shikoku and knows nothing about us. So there is still a chance to win. ”

Shinohara's head nodded solemnly and asked again, "What should I do next?" What's next? ”

I asked this question once when I entered the door, but the other party diverted the topic and said some nonsense. It can be seen that although Miyoshi Changyi is ostensibly in prison, he still does not want to hand over the leadership of the operation. Therefore, I brought up the matter of Iwasari Friend in a timely manner as a warning and reminded the other party to pay attention to the current situation.

Shinohara Nagabo could accept that the colleague in front of him stay in a small temple and remotely command the overall situation, because he himself did not understand the situation in, let alone planned and planned, and Miyoshi Nagaitsu was trustworthy in both aspects. But only if you know all the plans.

The two briefly exchanged glances.

Although everyone has a joint will because of a common enemy, the basic situation is not the same, and the route is also different. Shinohara's subordinates were all local Shikoku retainers, and Kyoto's hegemony was the icing on the cake for them. Most of the people who returned to Shikoku with Nagayi were born in or moved to from Shikoku, and their obsession with counterattacking Kyoto is engraved in their bones.

A year earlier, Shinohara's obedient provision of food, boats, and everything else had allowed the trio to attack Kawachi's Wakagian Castle without any worries.

But that operation was a complete failure, and hopes of returning to Kyoto were dashed. And the puppet Ashikaga Yoshiei who was pinned on them was also in poor physical condition, and he was always in danger of life and death.

So now, it is impossible for Shinohara's Nagabo to be an "obedient junior" as he was at that time. He felt that his sincerity was sufficient, and now he had to see a response before he could go any further.

Miyoshi Nagayi is unruly, and Shinohara's Nagabo stands respectfully, but the contrast between the strength and weakness of the situation is exactly the opposite of the posture of the two sides.

After half a ring, the former finally showed a little bit of the essence of lust and inwardness.

It's not that he doesn't have a clear mind, and it's not that he doesn't trust Shinohara, it's just that the days of being high have been too long and have become a habit. It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.

In the end, Miyoshi Nagaitsu still carefully explained his arrangement: "Shitaro (Nobuyasu Atakaku) has a strong temperament, and once he decides to change his court, it will be irreversible. Instead of sitting back and watching him surrender to the enemy, it is better to push the boat down the river and take advantage of it. So I've already planted a nail in Awaji. ”

After a pause, he added:

"Of course, ninety percent of this nail will be discovered, even if it is lucky not to be discovered, it will not play a big role, but it can lead to subsequent actions."

"What's next?" Shinohara finally couldn't help but take two steps forward, and his tone was a little abnormal.

A strange smile flashed on Miyoshi Changyi's face, and he stretched out his hand and swiped it, signaling the other party to approach. Then he clung to his ear and whispered more details.
