Chapter 257: The Death of Yoshiko
At the end of March of the second year of Eiroku, the Uesugi army successively defeated the daimyo who had been entrenched in Ou for hundreds of years, such as Kankawae, Mogami, and Date
, the lord of the country, instantly expanded his power to the central part of the two countries of Mutsu and Dewa. After Tao Qingxian withdrew his troops, Yanze Manyan and Tiantong Laizhen led their troops to attack Osaki Territory and captured most of Kamei County.
After the destruction of the Date family, Yoshihime, Clan Mori, Dan and Saemon, Horiki Mosai, and others were all taken prisoner by the Uesugi army, and after entering Wakamatsu Castle, they were separated from Mogami Yoshimitsu Seki.
By the time Asada entered Wakamatsu Castle, it was already March 29.
"Taowei Zhang Shou has worked hard this time, it's really hard for you." Chao Ding said happily.
"It is duty to serve the Lord's family, but it seems that the Kasai family has violated the agreement with the family and attacked some cities that should not be attacked by them." Tao Qingxian said modestly.
"I have already sent Kawada and others to Miyagi County, Natori County, Kurokawa County and other places to conduct land inspections, and I will question the Kasai family after the retainers have passed." Chaoding knows very well that he has not yet gained a firm foothold in the Central Continental Olympics at this moment, and he can't rush to tear his face with the Kasai family.
Ikeda Morishu whispered urgently: "Lord, look! ”
Chao Ding immediately raised his head when he heard the sound, but saw a "wild man" coming towards him: the feathers were stained with blood, his beard was gray and scattered, his eyes were deep-set, and he was thin and black like a piece of charcoal. Chao Ding asked in surprise, "You?" Are you the most Ukyo Uekyo? ”
The comer immediately knelt on the ground: "Sinner, the most upper-right near doctor Yiguang accepts the guilt!" ”
Chao Ding sighed: "Mogami Youjing, you should know the consequences of starting a war with your own family. Do you really think that your family didn't have a legacy in the three counties of Shonai and the four counties of Aizu? ”
Mogami Yoshimitsu instantly came to his senses, and then said impassionedly: "The war with the Uesugi family is all done by one criminal, and it has nothing to do with others!" The guilty minister implored the town government to bury the samurai of the most famous family who died in battle, and the good life of Ashigaru; Pardon the captured Mogami retainers. The top family is a famous family, and the guilty minister can't bear to cut off the family name, and I hope that the town government can let the top family continue! ”
"Dare to ask Mogami Youjing, what capital does Mogami still have to negotiate with this family?" Anzawa couldn't help but laugh after speaking.
“······” Mogami Yoshimitsu was speechless for an instant, and he also knew that all the castle soldiers of the Mogami family were captured by the Uesugi army, and most of the Yimen and Gendai were killed on the battlefield. Even his own governor became a prisoner.
"By the way, bring the rest of the Mogami captives with you and see what else they have to say." Chaoding doesn't like to watch a one-man show.
"The Lord's ······" The three retainers of the Mogami family trembled and couldn't speak when they saw Mogami Yoshimitsu's appearance.
"It's true that Mogami is a famous family, but I sent an envoy to the Echigo Prefecture to ask you to explain, but you didn't cherish that opportunity. There is only one chance, and if you don't grasp it, forget it, but it will get worse! Chao Ding was very angry when he thought about it.
"The sinner doesn't know what the town government has mentioned." Yoshimitsu Mogami pretended to be stupid.
"Two days ago, the Shosuke of the Shangjun Mountain Minbu of Xiaoguocheng has been begged to death, and the letters that have contacted you have also been seized. If you want to see it, you can see it tomorrow. Chaoding felt that Yoshimitsu Mogami was now not seeing the coffin and not shedding tears.
"My lord, two days ago, Omi Mamoru sent someone to deliver a first-class barrel, which is said to be the most important minister of the top family." Ikeda then motioned for Nagano to place the barrel in front of Yoshimitsu Mogami.
"I don't know the important ministers of the Mogami family, so let's let Mogami Youkyo take a closer look at who it is." Chao Ding pointed to the head barrel and said.
Mogami Yoshimitsu immediately opened the head bucket and found that what was placed inside was actually the head of the old family!
"This man persuaded the Sado people to cross the sea and go south, and they were courted by the Ganli Omi Mori Department outside the Tenjin Mountain Castle." After finishing speaking, the clan guard on the edge of Yoshimitsu on the back foot was spread on the ground.
"It seems that the family has dealings with the Sado people, and the town government already knows about it." Mogami Yoshimitsu immediately thought that his collusion with the Sado people to contain the Uesugi family must have been exposed. Gan Li Kei didn't send people to Kasuga Mountain City, so Kasuga Mountain City must have known about it a long time ago.
"Do you still want to rely on Mogami Ukyo? Collusion with the Sado people to cross the sea to invade Echigo, collusion with the Andong family and the Yuri Party to invade the three counties of Shonai, inciting the Sarawa-goe family to rebel, and diverting the generals of the Nishimura Mountain County such as the Hanhe Jiang family to be enemies of the family, etc., which one is not enough for you to apologize? Which one is not enough to make the Mogami family cut off their family name? Chaoding thought it was funny, I really don't know who gave Yoshimitsu Mogami the courage to make him feel that he could still make conditions with himself.
“······” Mogami Yoshimitsu was silent, as did the three retainers beside him. They all knew very well what the few things that Chao Ding said meant. Any one of them can cut off the name of the Mogami family, and it is more likely that all the Mogami family and genealogical retainers will be purged.
"For the sake of the fact that the Mogami family is a famous family, I can't bear to let the name of the Mogami family be cut off. It's just that the owner of Yamagata Castle is going to be changed. After saying that, Asada motioned for Ikeda Morishu to go out.
"The town government is willing to keep the name of the most famous family?! Both reduced and transferred territories are acceptable! As if he had grasped a life-saving straw, Yoshimitsu Mogami came to his senses in an instant.
"No resealing, no reduction. It turns out that the territory of Yamagata Castle with 10,000 koku is still so much. When I heard that Mogami Ukyo's main room had been killed in Yamagata Castle, I deeply sympathized. It's just that the Mogami family can't have no successors, so in order to allow the Mogami family to continue, I also specially discussed it with Uesugi Kenmasa of Hirai Castle, and it is most appropriate for the four male Kenkei Hall of the Kensei to inherit the family name of the Mogami family. What do you say? Chao Ding specially asked Yoshimitsu Mogami.
"It's not appropriate for the town government to do this! The Mogami family is from the Seiwa Genji, and the Uesugi family is from the Fujiwara clan. How can I inherit the name of the Mogami family?! Before Mogami Yoshimitsu could make a statement, Dan and Saemon behind him couldn't sit still.
"Since I think it's inappropriate, there's no way to do it.,Originally, I thought about it for a long time to think of a way to keep the Mogami family.,But if someone doesn't agree, the Mogami family can only cut off the family name.。 Chao Ding immediately made a very embarrassed look and showed it to Yoshimitsu Mogami.
"With Saemon, you shut up! As long as the top family can keep the family name, then we can still accept such conditions. After all, having made a heinous mistake, it is not easy to be able to block it. Mogami Yoshimitsu thinks it's acceptable.
"Since Mogami Youkyo has already nodded, then let's recognize Kenjingden as an adopted son. The Tendo Hall in Tendo City is also from the Mogami clan, and he is happy to give his daughter to Kenjing Hall as the main room. Soon after Asada's words, Uesugi Kenkyo was brought into the Ohiroma by Ikeda Morishu.
Mogami Yoshimitsu immediately recognized Uesugi Kenkyo as his adopted son, and let him inherit the service and official positions of Hashu Tanji and Ukyo Doctor. And the remaining three Mogami retainers were ordered to commit suicide by the court, and he didn't want to keep these people to continue to fight against him after he was set up in the air. The Tendo family has long wanted to replace the father and son of Yoshimori Mogami and Yoshimitsu from the Nakano family. Therefore, the court gave Tiantong Laizhen this opportunity this time, and let his daughter become the main room of Uesugi Kenjing, and Tiantong Laizhen himself became the new family governor and took over the power of the most supreme family.
Soon after Uesugi Kenkyi changed his name to Mogami Kenkei and moved into Yamagata Castle, Mogami Yoshimitsu was intercepted and killed by several bandits outside Nakayama Castle on the way back to Yamagata Castle, and the Nakano family of the Mogami clan was cut off. Just after the death of Mogami Yoshimitsu, the Uesugi family immediately began to 'Mogami Hunting' in Murayama County and Mogami County. The brothers Naomoto and Naoshige Hosokawa were defeated by the armies of Tadahide Okawa, Katsucho Shibe, and Yorisada Tendo at Semika, and both were captured, and the Hosokawa family of Okoku was immediately destroyed.
With the destruction of the Hosokawa family, the last separatist power in Mogami County, the two counties of Mogami and Murayama no longer have any opposition to the Uesugi family. As for the work of land inspection, it was in charge of the lords who were transferred to the two prefectures, such as Katsunaga Shibe, Tadahide Okawa, Tsukiji Shitoyo, and Takemata Keitsuna. Asada's mind was set on the Chumura Olympics, because the Osaki family had not yet been destroyed, and the Kasai family was also a little nervous.
