Chapter 366: The Ambition of the Changzong Family

Okatoyo Castle is located on Mt. Okayo (97 meters above sea level) in the northwestern part of Tosa Dosa Dosa-gun, and at the northwest end of the Kacho Plain, and was the residence of the Nagamune Ibe clan, the overlord of the Shikoku period during the Warring States period.

Although the land of Tosa Ichikoku was barren during the troubled times of the Warring States period, the local wealthy clans here were no less divided than other regions, and there were as many as seven famous wealthy families, collectively known as the "Tosa Seven Heroes", and the wars between various forces for land and population continued to intensify.

In 1509, when the Chosō Ibu clan was in trouble, the head of the Motoyama clan, Motoyama Yoaki, united the Yamada clan, the Kira clan, and the Ohira clan to organize a coalition to besiege the Chosho Ibu clan.

The nineteenth generation head of the Chozong Ibu family, Chozong Ibu Motohide, was powerless in front of the coalition forces, and Oka Feng Castle fell immediately, and he committed suicide in Honmaru.

That year, Senomaru (Chozong Ibu Guoqin) was only 5 years old.

Witnessing the tragedy of the family and the tragic death of his father, the young Guoqin kept shouting in his heart: "Revenge!" Revenge! ”

Ji people have their own heavenly blessing, under the cover of the retainers, the relatives miraculously escaped the pursuit of the Benshan coalition army, and luckily got the protection of a Fang family.

The Ichijo family is the second-generation head of the Tosa Ichijo family, and the Ichijo family is extremely high, and it is one of the five families. Top 2 Regents: Konoe, Kujo; The last 3 major regents: Takaji, Nijo, and Ichijo. Regent (the highest family in the public family.) It is possible to be promoted through the positions of Da Nayan, Right Minister, Left Minister, etc., and finally become a family personality such as regent and Guan Bai. οΌ‰

In his young heart, the family is revived, and the desire to slash the enemy is extremely strong, and he is begging a Fang family all the time to help him restore his old collar.

On this day, a house sent by the secretary of state was holding a banquet again, chanting poetry and music. When he was happy, the relatives of the country made a request to restore the old collar, which made a Fang family very unhappy.

"Humph! All day long know to fight and fight! When will you be able to use your brain! A Fang family reprimanded unceremoniously, and the country's relatives pouted aggrievedly and held back tears.

"Forget it, forget it, it's a disappointment! If you kind of jump off this building, I'll help you reclaim your old collar. A Fang family said a little angrily.

"Really? Can I really help me by jumping from here? As if he had grasped a life-saving straw, his eyes lit up.

"No, young master! This is absolutely unacceptable! The retainer Yoshida Norihiro hurriedly advised, afraid that the relatives would not be able to think about it, this child is only seven years old this year, and it is nearly four meters high here.

"Of course, my words count." A Fang family only thought that he was joking with the child, and didn't think that he would really do it.

"Good!" As soon as the national relatives gritted their teeth, they jumped out with a brisk step.

"Young master!" Yoshida Norihiro's tears rushed out directly, and he ran downstairs frantically.

In the end, with the help of the Ichiban family, the largest force in Tosa, the Ichiban family, forced the Motoyama, Kira and other families to agree to hand over the old domain of the Chozong family, and the territory of the 6,000-stone Zhixing of Jiangcun Township and Twenty Branches Township was restored.

Returning to Gangfeng City after a long absence, Changzong and my country are only twelve years old...

Looking at Gangfeng City, which is almost in ruins, the tragedy of the year is constantly reproduced in his mind, and the anger full of revenge of the national relatives is firmly fixed in the direction of the Benshan family.

At this time, the Benshan family didn't take this doll in their eyes at all, and once threw down a sentence: "If I can return the land to you, I can get your land back!" ”

At the age of fifteen, the relatives of the Nagamune and my tribe, with the help of the retainers, gradually walked towards the path of the Warring States Daimyo.

The rough childhood created a precocious British lord, and the relatives who bore the blood feud did not rush out to take revenge, but committed to constantly befriending the powerful from all sides, and painstakingly managing the rule of the territory.

Marriage is the most used strategy in the process of unifying Tosa, and at the beginning, it not only succeeded in wooing the Yoshida family, including the territory of the Yoshida family into its own territory, but even the enemy Motoyama family carried out marriages, making him relax his vigilance against the country.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, after the relatives of Changzong and my tribe successively annexed the Tianzhu clan and the Hosokawa clan, they used a plan to get rid of the general of the Chi family, Iwamatsu, and then used the usual marriage diplomacy to bring the Chi clan to its knees, and the southern territory belonged to the Changzong family.

After eliminating the wealthy clans in the south, the many lords in the east were the next targets of the country's relatives. In the same way, it is still relying on the marriage policy of the country's relatives, and gradually subduing the lord of the land area, such as the Mosquito Jutian clan, and other wealthy clans, so far the power of Changzong and our department has begun to take shape.

And this... It took almost thirty years...

It's not that the country's relatives are incompetent, on the contrary, he has the ability to "everyone" in a vertical and horizontal way. The main reason is that Tosa Province is barren and sparsely populated, and the main force of the war is mostly agricultural soldiers, and too many conquests will inevitably affect the harvest of the land.

In this year, there are spring ploughing and autumn harvests, scorching summers and harsh winters, and the timing of sending troops is not every year, and it often takes years of accumulation to maintain the money and food needed for the southern and northern wars.

Therefore, only a soldier who surrenders without a fight is a master of war. It was the decision of the national relatives and the British name that not only ensured the prosperity of the territory, but also expanded the territory like a sky, laying a solid foundation for the unification of the four countries in the later period.

If there is an opportunity, a big rebellion like Tao Qingxian's, a big split in the Ouchi family. Then, it is very likely that Chojong and my clan will become the Daimyo who dominates the Shikoku and invades Gyeonggi, just like Mori Moto.

However, God gave this lucky man once, and he never favored him again. It wasn't until he was nearly fifty years old that he took advantage of the civil strife in the Yamada clan to eliminate the Yamada clan, one of the blood debts of Okatoyo Castle that year.

"It's time to pay for your blood!" When Chozong personally cut off the head of the Yamada Sect, the half-century-long revenge plan slowly unfolded.

With the rapid expansion of the power of Changzong and my family, Xiangzong and my family also fell under the foreign policy of the country, but this time the country sent not a woman, but his three men as the adopted son of the family, named Xiangzong and my department pro-Thailand. and assassinated Xiutong, the adopted heir of Xiangzong's family, forcing Xiangxiu to abdicate to Qintai, and since then he has annexed Xiangzong's family.

Coincidentally, Benshan Meiqing, the most outstanding head of the Benshan family, died of illness, and the opportunity for the country's relatives came to officially break with the Benshan family. Along the way, the siege of the city, the soldiers in the mountain home city is just around the corner, many years of old feuds, now there is a saying.

Unfortunately, the tragedy was staged again, and the elderly relatives were seriously ill due to the fatigue of the Battle of Nagahama, and died in the marching tent, when the relatives had just turned 57 years old.

Before he died, he called the relatives of my department: "Destroy the clan!" Comfort my soul! Also, don't let down a great kindness! If any descendant forgets a favor from His Highness, Heaven will punish him severely! ”

Changzong is also a bold and wise, very ambitious head of the family, will be the mountain exterminated, let the second brother Qinzhen as a son-in-law and adopted son to inherit the Kira family, and finally... Forgot the kindness of a piece of home...
