With the idea of a tie, the power system began to function. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The analysis of Suga is mainly handled by Honda Masanobu.

Miyoshi Nagasoshi was asked to carefully recall all the relevant experiences in Shikoku, especially in Katsurui City, without missing a single thing. After more than half an hour of processing, he provided more than a dozen hearsay second-hand information, which seemed to be some speculation or trivial chores, but they had to be recorded in great detail.

At the same time, Nobuyasu Ataka and the six Awaji wealthy families who had taken refuge in the barracks came to a secluded place in the military camp as required to summarize their understanding of Suga Dacho. Obviously, there are too many topics that these seven people can talk about as neighbors, and there are no professionals to sort them out at present, so everything is left to Honda Masanshin to screen with his personal judgment.

In addition, important documents that need to be carried at all times need to be checked, and all direct or indirect records of gross profit are turned out, and then marked with the necessary notes according to the established format, and copied for comparison. Among them, there is either an unintentional mention in the internal letters of the Oda family, or diplomatic documents are forwarded by Nobunaga, and there are also the fruits of the labor of the Hirate family ninjas.

Obviously, all of this consumes the human resources of the scribes. Luckily, Hirate has a team of more than 40 people.

In the past, most retainers did not understand the necessity of the existence of this team. More than forty people, all of whom were about to catch up with Nobunaga's side. It wasn't until the tie came up with several new policies such as "printing and signing tax", "auctions", and "with knives" that this number was not too big at all, and even gradually felt that it was not enough.

But it's hard to expand the team any further. It is not only necessary to be literate and hyphenated, but also to have a reliable political background, and it is really not easy to find people who meet the conditions in this era. In recent years, Pingshou Fanxiu has selected two or three hundred available people by focusing on raising the orphans of soldiers and soldiers, but most of them have followed the path of their fathers' dancing knives and guns, and have become grassroots officers such as group leaders and team leaders in the spectrum army. Only less than one-fifth of those who are willing to chew on books and can read a famous name are possible.

Normally, daimyo would be enshrined in the monk's temple, but Heite was reluctant to introduce religious power into such a central place, and even with Toraya Soyi, he only maintained a cooperative relationship.

The construction of the civil service system is a major problem that has plagued mankind for thousands of years, and it cannot be rushed. Therefore, for the time being, we can only let these 40 or so "scholars" work more.

In the end, after a night of fighting, many small fragments that were originally inconspicuous gradually put together. Honda Masanobu judged from this that it is indeed very likely that Suga Dacho has fallen to Maori. The connector is probably Kobayakawa Takakei, who is in charge of the southern route in the Maori family - a well-known expert in coordination!

As for their overall motive, it is likely that they want to seize control of Awaji Island without breaking the alliance with the Oda family.

It is conceivable that once the tie is lost and forced to retreat to Izumi, Shinohara Nagabo will inevitably be damaged and will need to recuperate. The Maori army will take this opportunity to get involved in Awaji from the sea route and support Suga Dacho as the flag head, so as to achieve the effect of remotely controlling the Awaji naval army. And I won't be able to fault anything at all.

Honshu understands the reason why Shikoku is so cautious in using troops. It turned out that in addition to the enemy in person, there were so many suspicious onlookers everywhere on the left and right.

It's okay to have a draw, but the defeat and loss of the division is just a loss of some speaking power, and Nobunaga and Yoshiaki will obviously still give him the opportunity to "make meritorious contributions". If the Shinohara-nagabo is frustrated, it will be eaten and wiped clean by countless ambitious people inside and outside.

Therefore, it is clear that Awaji is surrounded, and it is clear that his troops are far more than the flat army, but he is slow to make up his mind.

The Ori's tactic of supporting proxies was obviously more popular with the locals than the Oda family's expansion, but its rule was also relatively unstable. Oda's greatest advantage was that he had mastered Kyoto, had a close relationship with the imperial court and the shogunate, and had a righteous name in his hands.

Although the two sides are allies on the surface, they are just a temporary expedient measure, and there is no shortage of open and secret battles in private.

For example, when Niwa Nagahide was ordered to attack Tajima, Yoshikawa Motoharu and Takeda Takanobu ran to get a piece of the pie in the name of clearing the remnants of the Niko. As a result, the Oda family took possession of Ikuno Ginzan, while the Mori family acquired three-quarters of Tajima Province (although not having much control).

Now Hirate is also feeling this indescribable taste.

According to the summary of various information, the strategic arrangement of the Maori family is roughly presented.

At present, the Mori family is roughly divided into three fronts, with Mori Moto and his grandson Terumoto fighting against the Otomo family and the Ouchi remnants in Kitakyushu, targeting the rich town of Hakata; Yoshikawa Motoharu led the people of Sanyo to suppress the remnants of the Niko (including the famous Yamanaka Shikasuke) in Inaba and Tajima; Kobayakawa Takakei took the people of San'in and was responsible for dealing with Urakami and Miyoshi.

The strategic thinking of these three directions is completely inconsistent, one is forcible seizure, one is encirclement and suppression, and the other is outwitting.

Takakei Kobayakawa is the executor of "outwitting". On the surface, it seems that he will have a hard time dealing with strong enemies in both directions with the men of his headquarters and the people of the two countries of Bizhong and Bigo.

But in fact, Urakami is fighting with Asai, Miyoshi is confronting each other in peace, and this guy Kobayakawa Takakei, not only didn't think about helping, but was always ready to grab people's heads and pick fruits!

There is no definite evidence, but after thinking about it, I feel more and more that this speculation is reliable.

Of course, a tie can't let the Maori family get their wish. But he must not openly tear his face. The political risks behind are very high, so we can only take advantage of the situation and think of a way to take advantage of it.

This time, before Honxiu himself spoke, Honda Masanobu took the initiative to offer advice, he knelt down and bowed, and said: "Suga Da is a long mouse, and Kobayakawa is beyond the reach of the whip, and the two are gathered for hundreds of miles, and they must not be able to communicate with each other." Can be broken individually. ”

Then he stepped forward and explained in detail that he could secretly teach people to make a batch of Maori military flags, and at the same time send ships to deliberately go back and forth to create the illusion that Maori reinforcements were coming. There is no deep friendship between Suga and Kobayakawa, and when he sees this, he will definitely wonder if he was abandoned by the Maori family. His heart was shaken, and the following articles were easy to do.

A few years ago, he recruited the Shanyin fierce general Changguang on favorable terms, and then assassinated him and took back his territory. Looking further back, the previous governors of Yoshikawa and Kobayakawa were rumored to have been used and then killed, and the cause of death was suspicious.

In the original history, Mimura Motokin, Takeda Takanobu also had similar encounters. Such a practice of first being generous and then subterfuge and suppressing can be said to be a signboard.

Hearing this strategy, Tieshou Honxiu nodded first, and then immediately asked: "If the enemy has three or five clever scouts, it can easily be found that Maori has not sent troops, so what can I do?" ”

Then Honda Masatin replied confidently: "Please take your subordinates as a messenger and go to Bigo Kobayakawa to ask for help, the other party can't delay, and will definitely send some old and weak soldiers to weakness and grievances, and when the time comes, the truth and falsehood will be mixed, and it will be difficult to distinguish between the real and the false." By the way, you can also test whether Suga Dachang is a gross profit. ”

Fan Xiu thought for a moment and agreed.

On the other hand, Honda Masanobu met Matsunaga Show once as an envoy, and after he came back, he made rapid progress, and then he went to deal with Kobayakawa Takakei, and I thought that there would be some growth.

……

When Honda Masanobu was sent away, Hirate Honhide was not very happy. Because even if this plan succeeds, it is just to hold Awaji, which was originally regarded as a bag, a little tighter, just a stop loss, far from a gain. And the Maori family can be said to have invested nothing except for the adjustment of Suga Dacho, and there will be no risk at all.

At the same time, another close confidant, Kawada Naga, was also busy overnight. He was ordered to lead the Mufu and military supervisors to the barracks of various miscellaneous armies, to reorganize the troops, emphasize military discipline, and verify the number of troops.

Of course, everyone knows that no matter how good his posture is, it is also raised high and gently fallen. After all, there are too many people who have deserted, how can it end up in comparison? Without the corresponding organizational structure, military salary system, and honor education, it is useless to rely solely on strict punishment and strict laws.

The real purpose of doing these things is actually to tell the whole army: there may be a war to be fought soon, so stop it for me! If someone is really not sober and is caught committing a crime against the wind, he doesn't mind killing two chickens to show the monkeys.

Even if it is Ji Yizhong, Tieshou Fanxiu has no right to govern, but he can take the opportunity to bargain. After all, what Suzuki and Tsuchihashi didn't boast about their sons and daughters when they collected money, and they didn't make trouble?

The logistical side was also in full swing, and along the supply line of Kishiwada Castle - Tamwa Port - Prefecture Honseong, a batch of timber and people were transferred to the front, and preparations were made to build another military station to expand the supply line forward.

In the midst of the uproar, everyone knew that something was going to happen, and most of the soldiers thought that they were going to storm Zhizhi Castle or Zhuangtian Castle. Sasa Narimasa, Hisho Xiuyi and others, who had been suppressed for more than a month, were very excited, rubbing shoulders and eager to try, and the intention of asking for war was overflowing.

However, they were doomed to disappointment. This mobilization of the army was just to create momentum and use it in conjunction with Honda Masanobu's strategy to attack the heart. At that time, if necessary, force may be appropriately used, but the main theme of the action is still strategy, and there will not be many opportunities for meritorious service to capture the flag.

However, after solving the problem of Awaji, a major military operation was planned in advance.

However, it is also not a large-scale frontal operation, but a less glorious spy operation.

The draw is aimed at the western region of Sanuki Province. According to the information sent by Miyoshi Nagatoshi, the wealthy families there all obeyed the order and led their troops to Shengrui City, but they had great complaints about delaying the farming, so their morale was low and their fighting spirit was shaken, as if they were a flammable powder keg.

If a unit appeared in Nishisanuki now, making a gesture of poisoning the people and destroying production, what would those soldiers who had left home think? Isn't that the equivalent of detonation?

At that time, Shinohara Nagabo must leave Katsurui City no matter what, otherwise he will not be able to explain to the wealthy family.

In this way, the enemy will be mobilized, and the landed Pingshou army will be able to wait for work. The three good ones said that the pre-battle defection will also have room for operation.

This is the biggest loophole in the layout of Shinohara's long house.

Of course, this loophole may have been left on purpose.

The complaints of the Sanuki nobles are not necessarily true, and the defections of the Miyoshi clan are not necessarily true, and the whole thing is likely to be just a ruse to lure the enemy into the depths.

But Tie Shoxiu still has a way to press the bottom of the box that has not been discovered so far, and it is guaranteed that it will not lose money.

Therefore, his idea of sending people to land in Sanuki was very resolute, and the only thing he was worried about was the selection of generals.
