In the past two years, the Oda family has won many victories, and for a time everyone is inevitably a little overinflated, overestimating their own strength and underestimating the appeal of the shogunate. This has buried deep hidden dangers for future development.

For this reason, Hirate Honhide did not hesitate to use the name of Izumi Ichikuni to let Nobunaga see the problem clearly.

Facts speak louder than any words. Even though he was dissatisfied with the word "slow" in "slow to become king", Nobunaga still accepted the suggestion on his face and made a decision that "things involving the Ashikaga clan should not be taken lightly." Assertions.

On the other hand, Hirate's behavior shows that his sense of identification with the Oda family is no less than that of Niwa and Shibata, and his sense of distress is still excessive.

In order to do this exhortation, the good "Hequan Guardian Generation" service was lost, although it was said that there was "a junior servant from the five" to compensate, but after all, a false name is always not as good as a real profit.

Nobunaga immediately showed a look of regret - this may have been some kind of "royal servant" ploy, and he may not have really felt that guilty, even if his face seemed sincere. Even if he regrets it, he is probably more worried about the safety of Kaimachi than he is fighting for his subordinates.

However, the two glanced at each other, and he saw that Pingshou Fanxiu was calm, unconcerned, and had no regret at all, and suddenly understood, and hurriedly smelled:

"Is there a way to get back Izumi?"

Fan Xiu couldn't help but be surprised, admired by the other party's insight, and was stunned for a while, before quickly replying: "I have indeed made some arrangements in Izumi, although it is not a seamless trap, but if the new officials sent by the shogunate in the past are not some of the most intelligent and skillful, I am afraid it will be easy to fall behind......"

"How could Junjie be willing to join the nominal shogunate?" Nobunaga immediately turned his worries to joy, showing his complete trust in what Tsunohide had said. Suddenly, he remembered something else, and asked instead, "Aren't you planning to fund the Asai expedition to the west in order to get involved in the trade of the western country?" What's going on? ”

"Overall, of course, it went very well." Tieshou set a tone first, then thought for a while, and added: "However, this process may not be as smooth as imagined, the initial investment required is very large, and it may be difficult to complete this matter with the power of the next person......

When Nobunaga heard this, he showed a look of impatience, and replied without thinking: "First let Yoshibei (Murai Sadakatsu) give you 20,000 kan military resources, and if you can use them, you can ask them for help if you can use them." ”

After saying this, Tieshou Fan Xiu was no longer entangled, and immediately bowed down and said goodbye, and took the order to leave.

This is the style of Oda Nobunaga, working under him, you will feel a lot of pressure, and you will often be suspicious from all sides, but as long as you can show your role, you will definitely receive rich rewards and good development opportunities.

……

In the face of everyone's envious or jealous gazes, after tossing back and forth several times, he finally returned to Wada Castle on the shore of Izumi Province and began to make arrangements for the follow-up affairs of the conquest of Shikoku.

First of all, the tripartite agreement with the Miyoshi family and the Nagamune Ibu family, which was approved by Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Oda Nobunaga, finally came into effect.

On behalf of Miyoshi Choji and Tokawa Depository, Shinohara, Nagabo, presented a two-year-late appointment gift to the current princess, Ashikaga Yoshiaki, to express his obedience. At the same time, he handed over the old map account book and admitted that the Miyoshihara territory was occupied by Oda and Ashikaga. For this reason, Oda Nobunaga temporarily adopted an adopted daughter and married Miyoshi Nagaji as the main room, declaring the "friendship" of the two families.

And the head of Chomune's department with an ambiguous identity, at the same time to Ashikaga and Oda vassal. He also sent his second infant son to Pingshou Fanxiu as his adopted son, which was equivalent to handing over a hostage.

The identity of Hite-ho is very suitable, Oda is his own person, Ashikaga also thinks it's acceptable, and Nagamune's head relatives are also keenly aware of this opportunity to meet the source.

The development of the situation in the four countries was mainly led by the tie. Ashikaga Yoshiaki was awarded the head of the "puppet princess", and after the fall of the trio, he was no longer obsessed with Miyoshi, and Oda Nobunaga looked down on the barren land in Shikoku Island, and only wanted to continue to expand in. Therefore, Fan Xiu is pulling the tiger skin of "taking the second time from the three good families", and the actual authority is very large.

Under the current circumstances, on the one hand, he focused on wooing and cultivating the relatives of the Nagamune and Ibu to make them his assistants, and on the other hand, he took advantage of Miyoshi Nagaji to become Nobunaga's adopted son-in-law, and demanded that Shinohara's Nagabo be returned to power, intending to disrupt the Miyoshi family from the inside and prepare for the follow-up raids.

As early as when the peace was agreed that year, the tie did not have any good intentions.

Based on the game experience of the previous life and the personal experience of this life, the internal strife and decline of the Miyoshi family are irreversible, since it is the right time, how can you not seize this opportunity to get a piece of the pie? If it is done well, you don't even have to bear the charge of "breaking the covenant".

It is because Shinohara Nagafang is still a masterpiece that it supports the overall situation, making this camel that is about to die of emaciation a little difficult to gnaw for the time being.

Changed to the guy Miyoshi Changyi, although he has some wisdom, he is self-righteous and not down-to-earth, and he will only perish faster.

A comma is drawn on the external action, and the corresponding reward is the internal reward.

Seeing that Izumi was about to be handed over temporarily, and he was likely to move to Awaji Island, he was generous for a while, anyway, is it generous to others!

All the people who surrendered to Awaji migrated out. Suga Dacho and others recommended it to Nobunaga and became a direct unit of the Oda family, and Zhixing was naturally solved by Nobunaga. Nobuyasu Yasuku and his men moved to Izumi and mixed with the original people. In addition, the people of Izumi Province who participated in the battle this time received a large amount of gifts, and the number of doctors in the first place, Yasudai Terada, was increased to 8,000 koku.

The transfer of the seal is obviously not a good thing for the wealthy landlords. However, the Awaji people have behaved very ordinarily in the previous series of wars, so they have not been able to get any good treatment. Moreover, the stone height of the new territory is generally higher than that of the old territory, which is already the "favor" of Fanxiu, and there is nothing to say.

The head of Anzhai Nobuyasu, because of his father's relationship, has a much broader vision than ordinary wealthy families, and he has already received the news that he has no objection to moving out of Awaji, so others can only accept the arrangement.

The other group of Yoriki had no right to interfere, and they were personally rewarded by Nobunaga, and they continued to be stationed in Izumi.

There are also the three counties of Nishi-Sanuki, with a total land of nearly 30,000 koku, and since most of the local wealthy families have obtained "skill security", there is not much space left. Koroku Wasuka, who had worked hard in Kaimachi for more than a year, was "pardoned for his previous sins and restored 5,000 stone of Zhixing" by Nobunaga, and at the same time sent to Sanuki to garrison, temporarily appointed as the guardian of the three counties. At the same time, Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who was the commissioner of Kaimachi, also resumed his knowledge and practice, and he also received additional rewards, and he still served as Kaimachi commissioner even after reaching the number of 5,000 koku.

By the way, Hirate Hidehide arrived at this meeting to learn that Kinoshita Hideyoshi had married a daughter of the Ikoma family as his wife. The Owari Ikoma family is a half-merchant and half-samurai, Nobunaga's favorite side room, and the biological mother of Wonder Maru (Oda Nobutada) is from this family. It is not known if there is any nepotism worth digging into.

In the end, eighty percent of the territory of Izumi was divided, leaving only the direct domain of 20,000 stones, which was ready to be handed over to the new guardian generation, or guardian generation.

And the flat Honhide moved to the state capital city of Awaji Province, and almost all the wealthy people here moved out, and there was no small lord left. In addition, the religious power on the island is weak, and the total number of temples and shrines is only a few thousand stones. So he left 50,000 or 60,000 stone of land, of which sixty percent was the direct leader of the Hirate family, and forty percent was the land of the retainers of the lineage. In fact, in these forty percent of the land, the retainers can only obtain income, and do not have the autonomy in the traditional sense, and all actions must be acted in family law.

The three counties of Nishi-Sanuki were occupied by Koroku Wasuka on behalf of the Oda family, but in fact, it would be good if he could manage his own 5,000 koku, and the local wealthy clans were led by Kagawa no Kee, and their independence was quite high.

All in all, after such a series of complex personnel changes, ordinary people have long been blinded, and it is impossible to judge whether they have made a profit or a loss.

Heite Honshu changed from the Izumi Guardian to the Awaji Guardian, and on the surface, the territory under his control was greatly reduced, from 140,000 koku to 60,000 koku, but his direct income changed from 41,000 koku to 56,000 koku.

On the other hand, his authority seems to be limited to Awaji, and Izumi has nominally nothing to do with Nishisanuki. But after careful consideration, it vaguely makes people feel that all the affairs in this area seem to be unable to get rid of his imprint.

That's how wonderful it is. Some people can't hold real power even if they have a name, some people can properly let the name play a corresponding role, and some people don't need a name to show a strong sense of existence.

The newly appointed guardian generations or guardian generations, before they arrived, were already looked down upon.

But of course, the voices of the bottom could not reach the ears of the high-ranking officials of the Kyoto Imperial Palace. Lord Gongfang and his retainers still feel that as long as they get the position of guardian, they can get actual power.

Hite-suohide took the initiative to give up Izumi, which had been in business for a long time, and this behavior was considered by the shogunate to be "a man who knows the times as a handsome". Ashikaga Yoshiaki had the idea of "suppressing Oda through the group of heroes", and imagined the road of "great revival" of the Ashikaga family, but he didn't know that Nobunaga had already begun to secretly plan how to cut off these disobedient so-called "group of heroes".

As for the tie in the center of the storm of public opinion, his mind has already gone elsewhere.

The military means have come to an end, and the commercial means have to follow.

It has been half a year since Asai Nagamasa went west, and he has also laid a lot of territory and obtained a lot of loot. By offering low-cost wages, Hisho has gained a lot of presence in Harima Country, but he has not made much profit.

It just so happens that now that I'm free, I have Nobunaga's 20,000 yuan allocation, which is enough to do something.
