Chapter 1102: Tamba Ghost!
The Hatano family could not be described as positive when they sold grain at that time, because they were afraid that after the Tsugawa family ran out of food, those who had not sold it would have no chance. As a result, in places such as Hagami Castle, there were even large-scale brawls that broke out over the issue of selling grain.
However, fortunately, the Tsugawa family had a great appetite, and they did not refuse the grain sold by the retainers of the Hatano family, and in the end, they directly bought almost all the food of the Hatano family. The situation of the Naito family and the Akai family next door was similar, the grain on the market was almost empty, and some farmers may still have some grain in their hands, but this food was definitely not enough to meet the needs of a large-scale war.
That's why Soji Tsugawa is so fearless.
......
If you want to talk about the Hatano family, it is indeed unlucky.
At the beginning, the Hatano family also rebelled with Hosokawa Harumoto, and Miyoshi Nagakeina was also Hatano Harumi's brother-in-law. The Hatano family is also a well-known presence in the land of Tamba, and even if you look at the Kinai area, it is worth talking about.
Especially during the reign of Hatano Minori in those years, the strength of the Hatano family was already able to influence the situation in Kinai at that time. At that time, Hatano Minori had two younger brothers, one was named Kenji Yanagimoto and the other was Motomori Kasai.
Kasai Motomori was killed by Hosokawa Takakuni because Hosokawa Takakuni listened to Hosokawa Yoonken's slander, and at that time, the combined army composed of Hatano Minoru and Yanagimoto Kenji directly sent troops to fight Hosokawa Takakuni, who had already unified Kinai at that time. Not only defeated Hosokawa Takakuni, but also unified Tanba with Tanba's younger brother Naito, but also followed Hosokawa Harumoto to finally defeat Hosokawa Takakuni and seize the hegemony of the Kinai region.
And now, with the death of the first generation of Ming lord Hatano Minitori, Hatano Harutsu, who succeeded him, is not only a weak and incompetent person, but also seems to have some problems with this brain.
Other wealthy families are which side NB defects to, but Hatano Harimi does the opposite, which side is weaker to the other side. The most important thing is that this goods will not judge the situation and take the broken ship of the Hatano family to eat jujube pills.
Initially, when Hosokawa Haruhoto was expelled to Omi by Miyoshi Chokei, Hatano Haruti took the lead in doing things in Tanba. However, Hosokawa Harumoto and Ashikaga Yoshiteru did not have the power of Kamiraku at all, and the Tsugawa family did not move for a long time.
In the end, the Hatano family was defeated by Matsunaga Nagayori and had to surrender.
And now that the Tsugawa family is on the road, they originally expected the Hatano family to see the wind and steer the rudder, so they turned to the Tsugawa family to set things right. But Hatano Qingtong is not biased, Lao Tzu is just looking for a sense of existence!
At this time, the situation of the Hatano family was not good, or the situation in Yagami Castle was not good.
Due to Tanba's topography, the Tsugawa family's offensive against Yagami Castle was slow, so Hatano Harumi had plenty of time to deploy defenses. The 4,000 troops under their command were respectively in charge of the Hatano Motohide, Hatano Sect and other people of the Hatano family, and the defense belt centered on the entire Yagami Castle was deployed in an orderly manner.
This is not the first time that the Hatano family has been in Yagami Castle, and in recent years, there have been several wars in Yagami Castle.
For example, the first Battle of Yagami Castle that broke out in the sixth year of Astronomy, the object of the battle was Hosokawa Yin Xian. In the twenty-first year, twenty-second year, and twenty-fourth year of Tianwen, he fought against the Miyoshi family three times, all in Bashang City.
The most recent one was the one when the Hatano family was completely defeated and surrendered more than a month ago, and the fortifications deployed around Hagami Castle have not been completely destroyed, and this time it can be used directly, so it seems that defending Hakami Castle can be said to be an easy thing for the Hatano family.
"My lord, Shiro and Saemon Hall are here!"
In the house of Hatano Harumi, the head of the Hatano family, Hatano Harumi, is now reveling in a famous painting that he had just purchased from a Sakai merchant. After hearing the voice of Hatano Sotaka in his ears, he hurriedly turned his head reluctantly, "Hyogosuke, why are you here to disturb the family's Yaxing again!" This is a famous painting that I finally purchased from Takeno Shaoou! ”
Takeno Shaoou was a wealthy merchant who started in the leather goods business in Sakai, and he was also a group of people who stood at the top of the Sakai business, and he was also a well-known elegant person in this era, with many famous paintings and tea utensils, and all of them were famous.
Regarding the deeds of Takeno Shaoou, Kira will not be here to count the words, and everyone can find it in Kira's new book when the time comes. By the way, the new book has already saved 100,000 words of manuscript, are the bigwigs looking forward to it?
"Lord, you should meet Shiro and Saemon Hall, look at his expression and seem to have something important to report!" Hatano Sotaka is a member of the Hatano family, and he is the uncle of Hatano Harumi.
Hearing this, Hatano had no choice but to put down his pen and have someone clean up the house, and then sat down.
At this time, a tall young samurai with a handsome face walked in from outside. The samurai wore a silver carcass, a cyan array of feathers, and a bowl-shaped pocket on his head, and at first glance he was a brave man.
"Shiro Shinoi and Saemon have met the lord!" The person who came was a retainer of the Hatano family and the lord of Shioi Castle, and he was one of the most brave warriors in Tanba, and he was nicknamed "Tanba's Blue Ghost", which was the same name as the "Red Oni" Akai Naomasa.
In fact, there are not only "two ghosts" in this Tamba, but if you count the Hatano Sotaka, who is also kneeling in the hall at this time, it should be the "three ghosts". Hatano Sotaka is also a rare brave person in the Hatano family, and his name is even more famous than Akai Naomasa and Shinoi Kyoye, and he is directly the title of "Tanba Ghost".
Of course, presumably for Akai Naomasa and Shinoi Kyoye, Hatano Sodaka's fame is not so great. The general reason is probably because Hatano Sotaka belongs to the older generation, while Akai Naomasa and Shinoi Kyoye are the leaders of the younger generation.
The front waves are always dying on the beach!
"Shiro and Saemon, what's going on, do you have to report to me at this time?" Hatano Harimi just wanted to stay with the painting at this time, and it took a lot of effort to buy it from Takeno Shaoou.
At this time, a trace of hesitation flashed in Shioni's eyes, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Lord, I am here to ask for sin!" ”、
"Please?" Hatano Harutsu was stunned for a moment, "What kind of crime?" ”
"I don't dare to covet temporary profits, and sell out the grain in the city! Now that the troops under his command are about to run out of food, I implore the lord to support his subordinates with some food for the needs of the enemy! Shioni said with a look of shame, as a famous Danba brave general, Shionii felt that he was very faceless at this time.
Hatano Harumi's face flashed with a touch of displeasure, "Food is so important, how can it be easily sold!" Even if you want to sell it, you can't sell it all!"
"It's really profitable that the price of food rose sharply some time ago. In addition, the family needs to buy a new batch of muskets, but they really don't have the money, so they have to make this decision! Shikai explained.
