The atmosphere at the scene was too weird, and I couldn't help but be stunned when I saw a lot of knowledge, and it took me a long time to think about the cause and effect before I could barely identify the direction of the wind.

But on the contrary, I felt even more confused because of this......

It seems that Kinoshita Hideyoshi and Akechi Mitsuhide, who were marginal members of the Ashikaga family, and Shibata Katsuie, who lived in Kyoto, co-opted the deacon of the government office, Ise Sadako, and opened fire on certain factions within the shogunate.

Can this be a winning stand?

Although Ashikaga Yoshiaki is a little impetuous, his IQ is still very high, how can he let a group of newcomers and unreliable retainers mess around?

Unless you can gather more companions, or if the rival faction dies on its own......

Tie Tsutsu fell into deep thought for a moment.

And Ashikaga Yoshiaki still didn't stop it, and watched coldly as his retainers attacked each other.

Ise Sadayko sent a "letter of help" from Oda and Tokugawa very "coincidentally", and Ashikaga Yoshiaki only took it calmly, and said lightly, "I know", and did not take it apart.

At first glance, the general seems to be confident in his victory, and he is not afraid of the people below making trouble.

However, Hirata felt that the general's expression was slightly wrong, and the composure and relaxation on his face were too deliberate, and he suspected that he was hesitant and pretended...... Although there is no basis for it.

At this time, following Akimitsu Makijima and Isshiki Fujinaga, Haritada Odate also stood up and accused Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "The so-called not in his position, not in his politics." I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to investigate the affairs of the Takeda family without first asking your lord. ”

Then Hosokawa Fujitaka immediately stood up and objected: "In extraordinary times, there must be extraordinary laws, how can we ask for instructions on everything?" To say that back then, we also made a plan to rescue Gongfang without consent......"

What he's talking about is an old thing.

Many years ago, the previous general Ashikaga Yoshiki was killed, and at that time Yoshiaki was just a monk with the legal name "Kakukei", bound by the Matsunaga family, imprisoned in Nara, unable to communicate inside and outside, and in danger. Fortunately, he was rescued by a few loyal shogunates, and he was lucky to get out, and after traveling in Omi, Echizen, and Mino, he finally revived.

On the night of the breakthrough, Hosokawa Fujitaka ran desperately with Ashikaga Yoshiaki on his back, Mibuchi Fujiei rushed to the front with a sword despite being not good at martial arts, Isshiki Fujinaga blocked two arrows with his body, and Wada Yumasa, Hitoki Yoshimasa, Yoshimasa Yoneda, Hatakeyama Naosei and others made contributions.

Therefore, among these people, although there are also those who secretly communicate with Oda, those who do things unfavorably, and those who commit disobedience, they can still be forgiven.

A few unfortunate people who died in battle were regarded as heroes, and all the stains on their lives were not allowed to be mentioned again.

And Wise Mitsuhide has no similar treatment.

Hosokawa Fujitaka picked up this experience and told the story, and the shogun, who had not participated in the rescue operation, would consciously be a head shorter.

Ueno Kiyonobu originally wanted to come out to help Haritada Odate, but he didn't expect Hosokawa Fujitaka to move out the big killing weapon, so he had to sit back in disgrace.

Only the same qualifications as Isshiki Fujicho still insisted: "I don't dare to agree with this statement of Hosokawaden...... In the past, the princess was taken advantage of by traitors and could not give us orders, but the situation today is completely different......"

"Although it has not yet been taken advantage of by traitors today, it is possible that it has been deceived by traitors who have received ill-gotten gains." Hosokawa Fujitaka's little henchman Yoneda asks for politics and unceremoniously interrupts Isshiki Fujinaga's words.

This kind of baseless attack on life actually seems very low-level, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki already has impatience on his face at this time.

Isshiki Fuji Chang also flicked his sleeves to express his disdain, frowned and cross-examined: "You seem to have come prepared today?" Is this the courtesy that is used to treat colleagues in front of the princess? ”

As a person who helped the general block the arrows, he naturally carried a lot of weight when he said something in such a heavy tone.

Kinoshita Hideyoshi and Akechi Mitsuhide are very clever to curl up and hide their presence.

Unexpectedly, the one who stood up to shield them from the wind and rain turned out to be the core of the "anti-Oda faction", Mibuchi Fujiei.

This person is now dressed in a bald monk's robe, and I saw him reciting the Buddha's verse, holding a string of beads, slowly getting up, and accusing Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "Kinoshita Palace, you are really out of shape!" As a newcomer, how can you act so rudely? Even if it makes sense, you should be more cautious! ”

Obviously, the focus of the words is the words "even if it makes sense".

Isshiki Fuji was dumbfounded.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki's eyes suddenly flashed with jealousy, and he disappeared in an instant.

And the tie is suddenly realized.

Political Struggles in Kyoto...... It's so much fun!

By now, I finally understand it.

Eighty percent of the people led by Isshiki Fujichang advocated the attitude of "sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight".

That is to say, to use Takeda to defeat Oda Tokugawa, temporarily unhindered its western attack, and wait until Oda Tokugawa is more than half, and then call on Qunhao to crusade against Takeda.

The advantage of this is that it will further erase the authority of the Oda system, which will help to break up Kinai again and avoid a major reversal of Nobunaga's Jedi. Takeda's hometown is far away from Kai anyway, even if he gets some territory in Mino and Mikawa, it doesn't matter.

But there is a potential risk of "raising tigers for trouble", what if Takeda Shingen is more powerful than he imagined, or if his supporters are more than expected, and it will be decided all the way to Kyoto?

And Mibuchi Fujiei seems to have been persuaded by Kinoshita Hideyoshi, Akechi Mitsuhide, Shibata Katsuie, Hosokawa Fujitaka, Ise Sadako and others. They made a big fuss about the fact that "Takeda Nishi did not seek permission from the shogunate."

(This is nonsense, if you really want to ask for it, the shogunate will definitely not be able to openly agree.) ）

It is probably no accident that some of the shoguns were bought off by Takeda, and they may have some convincing evidence in their hands.

Just like the "Shinichi Sano" that Hitaku Hoshu caught.

The subtext is to say: Takeda Shingen is so powerful, he is a bunch of tentacles in Kyoto, and he has bought many people, if he is allowed to swallow Oda Tokugawa, we will be in danger!

Kinoshita Hideyoshi is a newcomer, Akechi Mitsuhide is no longer trusted, Shibata Katsuya is simply an outsider, it is impossible for them to enter the inner circle of the shogunate anyway, so they simply come out to take the lead to attract firepower.

Mibuchi Fujiei's final harvest was very energetic and neat, and it was very beautiful. In the past, he was able to become the spiritual leader of the "anti-Oda faction", but sure enough, he still had two problems in politics. (Although the actual military and political affairs are completely incompatible)

And the high-ranking general is really hesitating.

Speaking of Ashikaga Yoshiaki, he has a superb political sense and skill, and he is definitely not an indecisive mediocre master. However, he lived an isolated life since he was a child, knew nothing about the civilian situation, and was stimulated to be timid about military affairs...... Therefore, he could not effectively assess the possibility of whether the Takeda family could reach Kyoto from the perspective of the military and the hearts of the people at the bottom.

Lack of intelligence is the reason why he can't make decisions, but he doesn't lack courage.

Saying that, within the shogunate, there was such a fierce division and such a fierce quarrel, to say that it was just a battle of routes, it would be unbelievable.

I think there must be a conflict of interest in it.

It's just that Hirate has been away from Kyoto for too long, and it is not clear what the interests of all parties are.

But don't worry about that.

This is because the tie has already chosen a route, and has carried out a large-scale arms expansion war according to the needs of the route. The route cannot be changed anymore.

Imagine – why did Kinoshita Hideyoshi take advantage of this opportunity today? Wasn't it intentional for me to see it? I don't know if there is a master behind me or what.

Tie Hoshu instantly thought of three or four possibilities.

Either way, though, it doesn't preclude what to do next.

Taking advantage of Ashikaga Yoshiaki's emotional shock, he wanted to stop talking, and the tie was about to add fuel to the fire.

He got up solemnly and called out first, "Lord Gongfang!" Then he strode to the middle of the courtyard, deliberately let the clogs make a rhythmic sound, bowed slowly, and said loudly:

"Report to the Lord! In fact, a few days ago, His Majesty caught a Takeda family spy in Kinai who was pretending to be a businessman! The man was stubbornly resistant, but his entourage had already confessed! However, since the details have not yet been processed, I did not plan to report it to your old man today...... However, when my colleagues are talking about the Takeda family, I can't make this addition! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was mixed with joys and sorrows.

And Ashikaga Yoshiaki...... There were violent emotional changes on his face in an instant, as if he was about to shoot the case, but after all, he fell silent, closed his eyes and shook his head gently, and still did not make a decision.

That's exactly what the draw wants to see.

Even if you two sides are arguing, I am firmly on the side of resistance to Takeda anyway, and I will do my best to make this point before the shogunate can make a statement.

In this way, we can occupy the most advantageous position in the process of distributing the spoils afterwards.

As for how much effort is actually contributed, it is another matter, political rules, different from military, commercial and the like, many times, it is better to say well than to say well, and it is better to say well than to say it early.

Of course, high yield means high risk. In case Takeda is really lucky, and he succeeds in Shangluo, Tieshou Hoshu can only take the initiative to jump into the sea to feed the whales.

Hidei Mibuchi, Ise Sadako, Hosokawa Fujitaka, Akechi Mitsuhide, Kinoshita Hideyoshi, Shibata Katsuie...... It was really unexpected that these people were united, and they did have a strong sense of action, but they still hid it and didn't put it into practice.

Hisho Tsunohide was the first to say the most radical words: "Today, it seems that Takeda Daizen (Shingen) is menacing, and he has already put his hand into Kinai, and it is clear that he has the idea of not being subordinate, and it is definitely not something that can be solved under the pretext of 'border dispute'!" Please give the crusade order! His subordinates were not talented, he was originally a pawn of the shogunate, leading troops to support Oda and Tokugawa, and fighting to the end with rebellious ministers and thieves! ”
