With the meeting between Hirate Honhide and Naoya Ukita, the situation in the Kansai region began to change subtly.

Many people turned to the latter for help and received the treatment of territorial security. But there are also many who have been accused of various crimes and have been attacked by the army.

At first, the Kotera family, who was close to the Seto Inland Sea, was considered to be an accomplice and confidant of Asai Nagamasa, and when they heard the news, they abandoned the castle in advance and ran westward, but the two retainers of Eda and Koga were unwilling to leave their homeland, so they resolutely took up their swords and resisted, and were swept away.

At the same time, there was also Harima and Tajima's marginal Zaita clan, because after the arrival of the "royal master", they still seized the time to embezzle the temple property and expand their power, and imposed a severe punishment of "cutting off eighty percent of the territory". Immediately, they could not accept it, insisted on not retreating, and were also attacked, and after the city was broken, they did not know where to go.

The Akashi family, the lord of Erayoshi Castle, was reported for his nostalgia for Kuroda Takataka, angrily denounced Araki Murashige, and jointly criticized the behavior of the equalizer. The head of the family was very strong-tempered, and thought it was a major insult, so he took it upon himself to show that he would rather die than give in, and the clan party immediately dispersed.

In a series of events, the presence of the Ukita Naoya is very strong, which is a big surprise.

For almost all accusations and punishments, Hirata will ask him for advice first, but the Ukita Naoya does not try their best to provide support and defense as promised in advance, but often is dumbfounded as a tacit acquiescence, or nods in the affirmative, and even occasionally adds fuel and vinegar to intensify the conflict.

So he helped to pull a large part of the hatred.

After all, it is normal and understandable that when you hear something offensive and framing, you can't distinguish the truth from the false for a while. But the Ukita Naoya originally said that they wanted to stand up and be a good person, but in the end, it was very tasteless if they didn't fulfill it.

This is probably one of the reasons why there has not yet been a large-scale series of revolts.

Another person who can speak next to Tie Dai Nayan is Miki Castle's Besaki Naji, who tried his best to defend his well-connected relatives and friends, and with a success rate of slightly more than half of the time, he saved several families.

In particular, he gave face and allowed his in-laws, the Tanba Hatano clan, to surrender and report their lives.

This incident made Bei Changzhi feel more valued and trusted, and he really made a contribution to maintaining people's peace of mind.

This is probably one of the reasons why there has not yet been a large-scale series of rebellions.

After a rough cleanup, Hirate Hohide reiterated that he recognized the possession of Bizen, Misaku, and Bessho Naoji over Higashi Harima.

There are still a large number of local tyrants and landlords in the west of Harima, then six transactions are given to the former, and four transactions are given to the latter for management.

However, the Tajima country, where Ikuno Ginzan is located, and the Inaba, which is still in the hands of the Mori family, will be taken under the direct jurisdiction, and all the families with more power in the country than a certain level will be asked to move to the land vacated by the Kodera, Zaita, Akashi, and other clans, and become the "wori" of the Ukita or Bessho families.

If Harima is not enough to resettle, it will be relocated to Omi, Yamato, and Kawachi.

It's like a deliberate attempt to force it back.

The power structure of Tajima and Inaba has always been in a more complicated state. The powerful forces around him, such as Asai Nagamasa, Yoshikawa Motoharu, Ukita Naoya and even Besother Nagaharu and Akai Naomasa, all have a certain right to speak and influence, and the famous people who guarded the mountains in the past also retained a small amount of contacts and prestige.

In the case of chaos, the wealthy families of the country have obtained a considerable degree of autonomy, and they can sway on both sides of the wall grass with the direction of the wind at any time.

Now the request of the flat is that after a large-scale land inspection and the size of each family is determined, they will move in a unified manner, which cannot be said to be a very harsh condition, but compared with the good days of the past, it is completely unacceptable.

As a result, the three head snakes of the Yagi clan, the Hengya clan, and the Otagaki clan of Tajima took action, half-coerced and half-coerced, united all the wealthy landlords, raised the banner of rebellion against the tie, and asked for help from the only Maori family that could be counted on.

And the Nakamura and Morishita families of Inhata had a tacit understanding with Yoshikawa Motoharu, and at this time they were even more openly teamed, and asked the Yoshikawa San'in Corps to enter Tottori Castle to assist in the defense.

Yamana, who only has theoretical power, is also on the opposite side of the tie. They thought they would be able to retain their guardian status and a certain amount of territory like Omi Kyogoku and Wakasa Takeda, but they were very disappointed and angry when they learned that Tajima and Inaba were going to be taken over.

From the perspective of a third party, it is easy to understand.

Takeda Motoaki's Wakasa and Kyogoku Takayoshi's Kita-Omi were small territories that were not considered wealthy.

Within the jurisdiction of Yamana, Inhata Province is a rare coastal plain in the Kansai region, and agriculture and commerce are relatively developed, but there is a treasure land of Ikuno Silver Mountain.

What's more, the mountain name family probably boasted of being a nobleman, and did not take the initiative to flatter the equal. And they can't show the sincerity of Kyogoku Ryuko!

In the face of the resistance of Tajima and Inaba, Hirate's reaction was simple, just continue to attack.

Although the battle was quite fierce on the occasion of the encirclement and suppression of Asai Nagamasa, the entire process of the crusade against Harima is worth mentioning in this battle, and about ninety percent of the soldiers in the whole army still belong to the complete combat strength, so it is a pity to stop here.

At the same time, it also happens to echo Boqi's Nizi Revival Army.

Yamanaka's letters sent back every six months showed a healthy mood, claiming that he had won several modest victories, and that he believed that it would not be a problem to maneuver with the Maori army in the mountains.

However, based on his own intelligence and the historical experience of his previous life, Hiseki inferred that this was definitely overly optimistic. If there were no reinforcements, the little Nizi Revival Army would have been a tragic story sooner or later.

Maori Terugen may be far behind his grandfather, but he is still a male lord above the qualified line, at least he has done it with the fact that he is outnumbered. In the past two months, he has not been obsessed with the gains and losses of one city or one place, and is not in a hurry to fight a decisive battle, but has arranged a net of heaven and earth from several directions, just waiting for the opportunity to attack together and help each other.

Yamanaka feels good now, probably just because the arrangement has not yet been completed.

Once the Maori family spread out their positions to attack, the numerical advantage could be maximized, and no matter how brave Yamanaka Yukimori was, he would inevitably be overstretched.

From the perspective of interests and feelings, I don't want to see that kind of ending.

Therefore, it is appropriate to move troops.

During this period, Yoshimitsu Hirate brought a small surprise.

After the setback of the attack on Yagami Castle in the Tanba Mountains, he focused on moving to Tango and spent two months capturing Kenbe Mountain Castle with the advantage of firearms and soldiers.

The city lord Isshiki Yidao has a very bad reputation because of his perverse behavior, and after fleeing, none of his retainers were willing to follow, and he was tragically hunted by the "fallen warriors" of the peasants who passed by, and the head of the famous family was only exchanged for ten bounties.

His son Isshiki Yoshiki still had some hope and means, and led a group of relict ministers to transfer to Gongmu Castle, and while preparing for the final struggle, he proposed to surrender.

Because he still retains some strength, his weekday style is also quite reliable, and he has obtained the condition of "retaining forty percent of the land".

As a result, the Tango country was successfully resolved, and Tanba's national coalition army completely became a turtle in the urn. It just so happened that Beschoji interceded for the Hatano clan, and the two sides made contact. Hatano Hideji accepted the arrangement of "the party who carried out the fraudulent surrender behavior seppuku, moved the clan to another country, and 50,000 stone was blocked", and then the pressure on the Akai family, who had no backbone, increased sharply, and half a month later, agreed to similar conditions.

The other small families immediately lost their will to fight.

Hatano has shrunk by half, and the Akai family has lost two-thirds, so if the relocation process goes well, it should no longer be an obstacle.

At this point, Yoshimitsu Herate can already be called the pacifier of Tanba and Tango.

At the same time, Takeda Katsuyori also made progress in his diplomatic strategy against the Hojo family.

Hitachi's Satake, Shimono's Utsunomiya and others tentatively verbally agreed to a draw and jointly limit Hojo. On the Anfang side, Satomi Yoshihiro, who was already terminally ill, rekindled the last trace of fighting spirit after learning of the existence of foreign aid, and decided to give up the compromise plan and fight with the "pro-Hojo faction" at home.

He denied the inheritance of his younger brother-in-law, the sister-in-law of the Hojo clan, Satomi Yoshiyori, insisted that his own son, the nearly five-year-old "Umeomaru", was the legitimate heir, and appointed Masaki Kentoki, who had always been hostile to the Hojo family, as the head of the family.

After doing these two things, he was basically dying in bed and waiting to close his eyes, and there was no way to re-establish himself. However, these two things are very in line with the rules from a moral point of view, and with the strong endorsement sent by the Hiteya family thousands of miles away, it has added a great trouble to the Hojo clan's politics.

The Hojo family can no longer play the trick of making a fortune while making a lot of money while fighting with the mud, and they must take a stand.

And Takeda Katsuyori and Tokugawa Ieyasu have clearly been looking forward to it for a long time.

……

Of course, not all fronts have made happy progress.

The counterattack planned by Hokuriku Kawada Naga family ended in failure.

Along the way, he cleared a large number of strongholds in Noto and Echichu, causing many of his enemies to flee to Echigo in a hurry, and the Uesugi family did not react, which convinced everyone that "Echigo's dragon was seriously ill" was true.

But just when the Heishou army besieged Toyama Castle for a month, showing a little tiredness, Uesugi Kenshin suddenly set out, and in two days, the divine army descended from the sky.

This guy may have been sick and didn't lead the banner to the front, but many of the co-operatives in the Hokuriku region were in a state of confusion when they saw the banner of Bishamentian suddenly appearing, causing a brittle defeat.

For many months, all the progress in Noto and Echichu was lost, and a lot of losses were lost, but fortunately, Honda Tadakatsu and Shima Kiyoko, the two mainstays, were able to barely stand.

In addition to sending back the war report, Kawada wrote a letter in his own hand, with only the words "contemptible and incompetent", and the ink was very light, which made Hirata Honhide extremely worried, but he didn't know what to do.

Considering the physical condition, if he is dismissed and transferred back to recuperate at this time, he may not have the opportunity to return to the front line, which is definitely not a satisfactory destination for a strong and enthusiastic samurai.

After thinking about it again and again, Tie Fan Xiu only replied with the words "Linger fights again".

Chosamune's head relatives were in Kyushu, but they seized an opportunity to defeat a special force led by the old Shinna Tadamoto of the Shimazu family, which can almost be said to have broken the myth of the "invincibility of the Shimazu family".

However, the victory did not play a decisive role, and Shimazu Yoshihisa's main force took the opportunity to appear in Higo Province and forced the landing of Sagara Yoshiyo, who had originally leaned towards the Otomo family, to further tilt the balance of power.

On all fronts, some went smoothly, some suffered setbacks, and the situation was not the same.

As a result, it greatly affected the efficiency of the Takute Honhide in dealing with the Kansai issue. Even if you only contact once every six months, it takes nearly half of your time and energy to think it through. This is still the case of Honda Masanobu, Maeda Genyi, Hosokawa Fujitaka and others helping to share.

The original plan for the division of the people of Tajima was not implemented in time, and the Maori family sent envoys to complete the integration first, and the wealthy families jointly wrote an oath, and their attitude will definitely not be loosened for a while.

This once made Tieshou feel uncomfortable.

It's not frustrating, but it's uncomfortable.

Intellectually speaking, the people of the world should rely on the advantage of the number of resources to carry out a grand attack. But emotionally, it is inevitable to regret that his subtle means of adjustment have lost their usefulness.
