Chapter 9 Multi-line and same-way
Because of various relationships, several fronts have successively obtained the permission of the draw and launched their own actions.
Yoshimitsu Hirate continues to attack Tanba and Tango.
Yamanaka Yukimori and their Niko Revival Army rebelled against the Nanjo clan of Hakuro Ishijo and backstabbed Mori.
Katsuyori Takeda tried to reach out to Kanto wealthy clans such as Satomi and Satake in an attempt to isolate Hojo.
With the backing of the people of Shikoku, the head of Nagamune's department entered Kyushu, united with Daitomo, and resisted Shimazu.
Kawada Nagajin prepares a plan for a counterattack on Uesugi in Hokuriku.
There are five directions.
With the exception of the Army, which was active with Hirate Tsunohide himself, and the fact that Tokugawa and Oda had been badly injured in previous years and were now trying to digest the newly recovered land without taking action, it can be said that there was a lot of excitement everywhere.
This is a good option.
If all the directly subordinate armies and foreign troops were to be gathered together, the upper limit might be 120,000, which would pose a serious test for logistical supply and would be a disaster in terms of organizational structure. After all, it was only the 16th century, and both transportation capacity and communication technology were very primitive and backward. It is better to disperse all over the country and leave a certain amount of autonomy for others to play.
After the completion of the Iyo Raider, the army directly under the command of Hirate Honhide, as well as the three legions of Yamato, Hanoi, and Kii have been a little tired due to the perennial campaign, and the number has begun to shortage, so they have entered a state of recuperation.
Especially for the standing guards and flags, it has been almost ten years since they were launched, and the issue of replacement needs to be considered.
There is a group of non-commissioned officers who are close to or over forty years old, and they need to be removed from the army, otherwise the physical strength will be too much to decline and the combat effectiveness will be affected.
This is a very troublesome and cautious issue, because veterans, if properly resettled, are often full of love and trust in the regime, and even pass on similar feelings to their children and grandchildren, and will remain die-hard supporters for generations, exerting a positive impact on local affairs.
On the other hand, if you are treated harshly and harshly, and you have resentment, it will become a big hidden danger that affects public order.
The money will definitely be sent. But the first cannot get a lot, and the second cannot solve all the problems. Providing secure, comfortable, and socially accessible jobs is key.
According to the idea of the tie, a rough cultural level test should be conducted first, and those with excellent grades should be directly promoted and hired to become low-level retainers of Twenty Stone Zhixing; secondly, if you have a skill in the handicraft industry, you should try to recommend it to a familiar businessman to be a worker, and some of the direct lead shops that leave with meritorious service will be self-employed; I really didn't have the ability to return to the township to grant a small piece of land, and at the same time work part-time as the eyes and ears of the "Metropolitan Police Department" to receive a small amount of compensation.
The matter was entrusted to Honda Masanobu, Maeda Genyi, and Hosokawa Fujitaka.
The goal is not to simply do this once, but to try to form an example that future generations can follow. The requirements are quite high, and going from zero to one can be more troublesome than going from one to a hundred.
Even these three talents are afraid that they will have to think hard and meditate for a while under the pressure of Tieshou Tunxiu.
However, it will also be a very conspicuous feat, so Maeda Genyi, who has not been in the office for a few years, and Hosokawa Fujitaka, who is eager to get rid of his old identity, are both very energetic, and only Honda Masanobu is purely too intellectually high and is exploited and oppressed.
As for the other local regiments in Kinai, although they have also implemented a certain degree of "separation of soldiers and peasants" and have the color of some standing armed forces, their organizational structure is still old-fashioned, and they have added a little professionalism to the foundation of the soldiers and generals, but they have avoided similar troubles and only need to recuperate.
The Standing Army of the Flag Book of the Tieshou Bunshu is based on the clear hierarchy of "formation-team-fan-reserve-potential-army" as the basic framework, which is compatible with the samurai system, and the class system of officers and soldiers is clear.
This set of things has not yet been able to prove itself from the level of combat effectiveness.
It is not a problem to have standard equipment, get sufficient supplies, maintain long-term training, and bully the rabble, but when facing the elite of the Takeda and Uesugi families, they will still be slightly at a disadvantage.
Despite the so-called elite of Kai and Echigo, the essence is still that of a peasant soldier.
However, the standing army can go out at will far from its own base without being restricted by agricultural hours, and this advantage is still very obvious. Moreover, the appointment and dismissal of officers and the distribution of salaries are all handled at the top, so that they can avoid being used by careerists, and their reliability is greatly improved.
As long as there are no problems in the overall political situation, this team will be the foundation of loyalty.
If something goes wrong...... Think of the big Meng country next door, with the lax management and corruption breeding, the border army has gradually been replaced by the family. This kind of thing has a certain rationality and inevitability in the era of cold weapons.
Don't think too much about it. No matter how great a statesman is, he can't predict what will happen in a hundred years, and it would be good to be able to manage the present, and then let the next generation and the next generation enjoy some gentleman's grace.
Throughout the first half of the second year of Tensho (1577), Hirate Hoshu mainly stayed in and did not rush to conquer everywhere. At the same time, it is not too late to act if any front is in trouble or if an opportunity is created.
However, things are not moving so fast, and each line is either continuing to prepare for war, leading to no triggering, or it is stuck in a confrontation and cannot form a duel.
Hirate Yoshimitsu did not receive his father's prompting, and decided to suspend Tanba and take Tango first, leading 17,000 men to attack along Wakasa, and obtained the refuge of the Inatomi clan and other countrymen and surrounded the Isshiki family's Yuki Castle, which is slowly wearing away.
Yamanaka Yukimori and others have the advantage of mountain and forest terrain, and they dare not move lightly until the Maori army arrives.
It took a month for the head of Chozong's department to assemble his troops in Kyushu.
Neither Katsuyori Takeda nor Naga Kawada have yet to be heard from.
The first to attract the attention of the draw is actually the sixth front.
That's right, in June and July, another unwilling lonely appearance stood up. It was Araki Murashige, who claimed to have made contact with Harima's men and created an opportunity to attack Asai to the west.
At present, Asai Nagamasa occupies almost all of Harima, but most of Tajima, as well as a small number of areas such as Bizen and Misaku, including Ikuno Ginzan and the port of Hyogo, are rich. He himself has always maintained a martial and warlike style, and his disadvantage is that he is unable to integrate the unruly Chinese people.
Especially after the defeat of the Nobunaga uprising last time, it was the "collegial system" that continued to win the support of the local tyrants.
Now he has turned against his former ally Ukita Naoya, and the specific grievances and hatreds are only understood by insiders, in short, they are now fighting fiercely around Bizen and Misaku. The general impression is that Asai Nagamasa has the advantage in military but is far inferior in strategy to his opponent, which is an inevitable situation after Kuroda Takataka was hacked to death by Arakimura Shige.
Tie Tsusho didn't deal with Harima for the first time, except that the front line was too busy to be busy, it was a bit of a bit of a mountain watching the tiger fight.
Now that the army is almost complete, if Arakimura can create some good opportunities on its own, it might as well seize it.
Harima is not much farther away from Kyoto, and it is not much farther than Tambobi, and it is also a very threatening area that has to be cleaned. As for Asai Nagamasa, this time he didn't particularly actively flatter Ashikaga Yoshiaki, but there was too much black history in the past, and there was no problem in beating him to death.
By the way, due to the death of Oda Nobunaga and the abandonment of the important party Araki Murashige, the assassination incident of that year fell into a fog and could no longer be traced clearly.
After asking which Chinese people Arakimura re-contacted and the reason for the defection, Hirate thought that he could give it a try.
But this means that the sixth front must be opened!
It's really conflicting.
Sometimes I feel that it is not appropriate to spread out in this way, which is contrary to the successful experience of the past, and sometimes I feel that it is a matter of course after becoming a "person of the world".
