Chapter 198: Gyeonggi Shakes
Tomita Nagashi, who was on the side, looked at the three people who had already drunk, and said with a sneer to Sabei and the others: "Ladies and gentlemen, I still have something to deal with, so I'll leave first!" Then Tomita Nagashiro said to Fushiwa Akijiro on the side: "Akijiro, I'm not strong enough to drink, so I'll leave first!" With that, Tomita turned around and left with his attendants.
Seeing this, Sabei glanced at Suzuki Heavy Industries on the side, and Suzuki Heavy Industries immediately got up and followed behind Tomita Changshi, and said to Tomita Changshi: "Lord Tomita, the lord asked me to send off my lord!" ”
After hearing this, Tomita Nagashi glanced in the direction of Sabei, and then whispered to Suzuki Heavy Industries, "Tell Lord Mingwei that you must not despise the crowd; And also... I hope that Lord Mingwei can give me some help in case I have a deficit in the collar! After speaking, Tomita Changfan waved his hand at Suzuki Heavy Industries and said, "Don't send me, I still know the way back!" ”
Suzuki Heavy Industries nodded when he heard this, bowed his head and saluted Tomita Nagashi. At this time, Tomita Nagashige also turned over and rode on his horse, and left Kawasaki Village with his attendants.
Sabei and the others also said goodbye to Fushiwa Akijiro one by one in the afternoon and returned home.
On the way, Suzuki Heavy Industries relayed Tomita Nagashi's words to Sabei, who said with a smile after hearing this: "The former Boji made a lot of money before the capture of South Vietnam, and naturally we have to spit out some of it at that time, otherwise if there is a riot, I'm afraid that we only need to defend Momoyama Castle!" ”
The assistant emon on the side listened to Sabei's words, stepped forward and said to Sabei on the horse, "My lord, do you want to send someone to keep an eye on Tsuruga County?" ”
Sabei shook his head and said to Sukeemon: "Akejiro Tsuruga-gun, he knows the situation better than us, so there is no need to send people, but before North Vietnam, we still need to send more people to keep an eye on it!" ”
After Meijiro's wedding, Momoyama Castle had to train more every day to deal with a possible riot in the future. The situation in Tsuruga Prefecture is also becoming less and less optimistic, and Fushiwa Akijiro will send his henchmen every day to report the news to Momoyama Castle, and the situation of the summer harvest in Tsuruga County is becoming more and more obvious, and the rice shops in the towns of Tsuruga County have also begun to raise the price of grain.
Tomita's tax cuts in his own territory had little effect on the lack of harvest, and many of the people began to save grain early on, preparing to survive the period of poor harvest with the remaining grain.
Mae-Poyoshitsug did nothing to prevent a riot, and even participated in the price hike of grain, which caused the people around Kanesaki Castle to complain, and a riot in his territory was about to break out.
Tomita Nagashigeru has recently begun to write frequently to Sabei for help, and Sabei is on the one hand. He replied to Tomita's letters one by one, and warned Tomita to be careful of instigating a riot in the letter. On the other hand, he immediately wrote a letter to Yamashita Shinsuke of Minami Omi, asking him to buy grain at Minami Omi at a price slightly higher than the normal price of grain, and sent someone to send it to Momoyama Castle in disguise.
Just when Sabei thought that he could make a small profit through such an operation and brush up on his fame, the reply from Shinsuke Yamashita made Sabei stunned for a few breaths and didn't react. Matsuhisa Nagahide again threw himself into the Oda family and complained to Oda Nobunaga about Ashikaga Yoshiaki's invasion of his territory, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki was forced to raise troops in the island castle of Maki (diān).
After being stunned for a few breaths, Sabei held Yamashita Shinsuke's letter in his hand, came to the porch outside the house, looked up at the sun in the sky and said, "I didn't expect Ashikaga Yoshiaki to still raise troops in Makishima Castle!" After listening to this, Heiji, who was serving on the side, saw Sabei standing in place and fell silent, and he didn't dare to be rude, so he had to sit on the porch and look up at Sabei.
After a long time, Sabei turned to Heiji on the side and said, "Call Goroubei, Sukeemon, Yoemon and Yoshiya to my house!" Saybisa entered his house again. After listening to Sabei's order, Heiji immediately ran towards Ninomaru's training ground.
Soon after, the four of them ran to Sabei's house in a panic, and Fujido Takatora sat down in Sabei's house and asked Sabei, who was sitting in front of him, "What is the matter with the lord calling me in a hurry?" ”
Sabei didn't speak, but took Shinsuke Yamashita's reply to everyone, and everyone fell into silence after reading it.
"My lord, if His Royal Highness Nobunaga sends troops..."Suzuki Heavy Industries saw that everyone was silent, and took the lead in breaking the silence in the room.
After listening to Suzuki Heavy Industries' words, Sabei opened his mouth and said to everyone: "As long as the lord gives the order, Akechi-sama and Tsuda-sama can attack Makishima Castle directly from Shiga Prefecture, and take advantage of the large tube (to explain here, I just chose a more recognizable name for easy reading)..."
Sabei's room fell silent again, and the five people in the room were silent except for silence. Pingji, who was serving outside the door, felt the strangeness in the atmosphere, so he secretly glanced into the room from outside the door, only to see his lord and the four adults sitting around the desk, looking down at the desk.
"Let's go back first!" In the end, it was Sabei who broke the silence and spoke to everyone. After listening to Sabei's words, everyone nodded and got up to leave Sabei's house. After everyone left, Sabei lay down in the house, wondering whether Oda Nobunaga would exile Ashikaga Yoshiaki this time or just cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
A few more days flew by, and the right Ichisuke had already arrived at Momoyama Castle with fifty newly recruited standing reserves, carrying 1,000 stone of the 5,000 stone of grain purchased through Kakukuraya. This time, the news brought by Ichisuke to Sabei and others was even more amazing, Oda Nobunaga ordered Akechi Mitsuhide to lead an army to surround Makishima Castle, and he personally led 2,000 troops to Makishima Castle.
Everyone seemed to already know what happened to Ashikaga Yoshiaki, so they didn't ask too much about the battle situation, but asked Sabei what the Oda family would do next. Sabei shook his head and said to everyone, "There are some things that even the young master may not know!" ”
After instructing the right Ichisuke to continue transporting grain to Momoyama Castle, Sabei sent fifty standing guards who had been training for a period of time to follow the right Ichisuke to transport grain.
However, the intersection of May and June in the third year of Motogame was destined to be extraordinary, and on June 1, Yamashita Shinsuke from Minami-Omi informed everyone that on May 27, Oda Nobunaga attacked Maki Island Castle, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki was exiled by him.
Hearing the news, Akijiro Fushiwa, Suzuki Heavy Industries and others fell silent for a while, not knowing whether this was a sign of the beginning of a new era, and as for what the new era would look like, who would care? The current situation in Tsuruga County is already precarious, but except for Tomita Nagashige's desperate suppression and Sabei's opportunistic assistance, the other pre-South Vietnamese wealthy clans are willing but powerless.
After the silence, Fushiwa Akijiro spoke: "My lord, the Tsuruga Prefecture will erupt at any time, and I want to let Chie and the others move to Momoyama Castle. ”
Sabei immediately said, "You can move back too!" My efforts with Lord Tomita are just a drop in the bucket, no one can stop this riot, even I want it to happen as soon as possible, so that we can establish the merit of quelling the riot! ”
