Tango, located in the west of Wakasa Province, is the domain of the Isshiki family.

The rent of the Isshiki clan is the son of the Ashikaga Yasushi clan, Isshiki Koshen, and the original territory was in Isshikiso, Mikawa, so he took "Isshiki" as his own Miao character.

The Isshiki family has always had a relatively low sense of presence among the samurai families of the entire RB Sengoku period, even lower than the Wakasa Takeda family, the Yamana family, and the Hatano family next door.

There's no way, the Wakasa Takeda family has a relative of NB, the Kai Takeda family. The Yamana family was the boss of the Yingren Rebellion back then. As for the Hatano family, this one doesn't need any explanation.

But in fact, the name of the Isshiki family is also very high.

The Isshiki family is one of the "three pipes and four positions" family, and is as famous as the Kyogoku family, the Akamatsu family, and the Yamana family.

In the early days, Isshiki Yoriyuki, the son of Isshiki Koshen, was active as a member of the shogunate royal family, and later Isshiki Yoriyuki followed the Ashikaga clan to the Kyushu region with his younger brother Isshiki Fan. After the Battle of Tatarahama, the Ashikaga clan began to move eastward to do things, so the Isshiki Yoriyuki brothers were left behind to manage the Kyushu region.

However, in the second year of Engen, the Isshiki Yoriyuki brothers died in battle with Kyushu forces such as Kikuchi and Aso. The son of the Ichishi Fan clan, the Ichishiki Naoji, then succeeded to the position of "Zhenxi Guanling", and the Zhenxi Guanling was later the Kyushu exploration topic.

In other words, in the early years of the Isshiki family, he also held the position of Kyushu exploration.

Later, the Isshiki family returned to Kinai from Chikuzen in Kyushu and acquired the territories of Wakasa, Tango, Ise, Shima, Mikawa Goku, and Owari Bankoku (actually only two prefectures), becoming the Great Guardian of the territories of nearly six countries. At the same time, he also served as the head of the shogunate, and was the pen of the "four masters", and was deeply trusted by the shogun.

However, after the Onin War, Wakasa Province was seized by the Takeda family, and at the same time, Ise, Shima and other places were lost, and in the end, only Tango was left to survive and become a salted fish.

The Isshiki family and the Wakasa Takeda family are also old rivals, and the situation is similar to that of Kasai Osaki, Date Mogami, and Takeda Nagao. Of course, the main reason for the outbreak and continuation of the conflict was that the Takeda family seized the country of Wakasa from the Isshiki family.

Even in the era of Takeda Motomitsu and Takeda Nobutoyo, the Wakasa Takeda family was even more "bullying" and invaded Tango Province several times. And also occupies part of the territory, the Isshiki family is in a very difficult situation.

Earlier, the head of the family in the near area was Hosokawa Takakuni, and later a Hosokawa Harumoto appeared, and the two sides fought. In order to keep the name of the family, the Isshiki family had to choose a side to take refuge. At that time, because Hosokawa Takakuni supported Ashikaga Yoshiharu, and the relationship between Ashikaga Yoshiharu and Takeda Motomitsu, the Wakasa Takeda family was on Hosokawa Takakuni's side.

Correspondingly, the Isshiki family naturally stood on the side of Hosokawa Harumoto. And after the war, it was indeed Hosokawa Harumoto who won the victory and became the overlord of Kinai, and the Isshiki family also benefited from this, not to mention external expansion, and naturally the Tango Kingdom was preserved.

Since then, Miyoshi Chokei and Hosokawa Harumoto have competed, Tsugawa Soji and Miyoshi Chokei have been opposed, and the Isshiki family has chosen to stand on the opposite side of the Wakasa Takeda family! Therefore, the Isshiki family chose to support Miyoshi Changqing not because they were optimistic about Miyoshi Home, but simply against Takeda Shintoyo!

......

Tango, Maizuru Minato.

Maizuruminato is a small port located in Maizuru Bay, close to Wakasa Province. This is also the naval base of the Tango Isshiki family, and this time the Miyoshi family's Ataku naval army was stationed here.

Jianbu Mountain City, the origin of the Isshiki family. During the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it was located on Mt. Kenbe, and you can clearly see the whole picture of Maizuru Minato from the castle tower of Kenbu Mountain Castle. At this time, the head of the Isshiki family, Isshiki Yoshiyuki, was standing on the castle tower and watched Maizuru make up the direction without saying a word.

Behind Isshiki Yoshiyuki stood two people, one was Inatomi Yuhide, a retainer of the Isshiki family, and the other was Isshiki Yoshiki's son, Isshiki Yoshimichi.

"Father, since Yasuku Fuyasu and the others entered Maizuruminato, many merchant ships coming and going in Wakasa Bay have been plundered! Even if Yasutaka Fuyasu's move was to disrupt the maritime trade between the Wakasa Takeda family and the Asakura family, put pressure on the enemy army, and at the same time destroy the sea supply lines of the Tsugawa family! ”

"But whether the Tsugawa family and the Takeda family have been affected by this is still unknown, I only know that the income of the Maizuru family has plummeted by sixty percent in the past two months, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that the first person who cannot support it will be the family!" Isshiki Yoshido stood behind Isshiki Yoshiki and said bitterly.

At the beginning, Isshiki Yoshido did not support the Isshiki family to take refuge in the Miyoshi family, and for the behavior of Anzhai Dongkang and others, Isshiki Yoshido also refused from the bottom of his heart. But Isshiki Yoshiki seemed to have taken ecstasy and insisted on going his own way, which made Isshiki Yoshiki very melancholy.

"Right Soldier Guard, are you questioning your family's decision!" Isshiki Yoshido turned around and scolded, "If you don't support the Miyoshi family, will the main family follow the Takeda family to join the Tsugawa family?" ”

"Why not!" Isshiki Yoshimichi put his hand on his neck, then took out something and said loudly, "Father, times have changed!" Even if Wakasa Country was stolen by the Takeda family back then, after so many years, the grievances between the two of us should be put aside! ”

"The changes in the Takeda family over the years, my father should also see it, because of the defection to the Tsugawa family, the Takeda family has developed rapidly in all aspects, both military and commercial!"

"It is no exaggeration to say that the Tsugawa family is much stronger than the third good family! Moreover, the Tsugawa family treats subordinate forces and allies with heart, upholding the concept of win-win for both sides! And the three good family to treat the family is more of a use, if the day the family has no use value, the three good family will definitely abandon the family! Isshiki Yoshido said emotionally.

Isshiki Yoshiki suddenly became angry, snatched the object in Isshiki Yoshiki's hand and threw it on the ground, "You have been talking about this kind of Nanban thing all day long, if you let the family see the figure of the Nanban in the city, the family will kill you together!" ”

Isshiki Yoshido solemnly picked up a cross on the ground, and then put it on his chest and drew a cross, and explained to God in his heart the crime of Isshiki Yoshiki, hoping to wait for God's forgiveness.

As early as several years ago, Isshiki Yoshido got acquainted with several Nanban merchants, but Isshiki Yoshido did not pay attention to it, and was only interested in the Nanban things in the hands of these Nanban people.

But soon after, a rumor spread to Tango and other places. Roughly speaking, the reason why the world-famous Tsugawa family was able to become so powerful was because of the help of the Nanban!

Isshiki Yoshido was suddenly excited!

As a salted fish, Isshiki Yoshido is not satisfied with the current situation, he wants to fly! He wants to be free! He wants to lead the Isshiki family to rise and become a generation of heroes like Soji Tsugawa.

As a result, Isshiki Yoshido began to take the initiative to contact the Nanban, and clearly expressed the hope that the Nanban would help the Isshiki family.

However, it is a pity that Isshiki Yoshido did not encounter an ambitious and powerful Nanban merchant like Shadillo, but a few down-and-out missionaries......... These missionaries were worried because of the obstruction of their mission, and when they saw that the righteous way of Isshiki had come to their door, they began to deceive in various ways.
