038 Maintaining the Old Order (Part I)
038
A book friend pointed out a mistake: there was no piano in the 16th century, what did the protagonist play?
As explained here, the protagonist uses a classical piano instead of a modern one.
With the opening of new routes, classical pianos were brought to all corners of the world, including Japan.
Book friends who have watched "The Man Who Is Not Loved by God" (well, I admit that the show really can't be pulled anymore) will remember that there is a classical piano in it, and Nobunaga is still playing it while asking Moranmaru if he wants to see the glass-colored sea.
Since Japanese people don't mind this issue, why should we dig into it?
If you have any comments, even if you have raised them with me in the book review section, I will always welcome them......
"His Royal Highness Wise is really rich and rich, and he is only eight buckets high,"
Takeda Nobujin, the most cultivated among the local tyrants, said excitedly: "Even the profound and mysterious Nanban piano (the piano at this time should not be called a piano in Japan, it should be called something else, I can't remember it anyway...... Here's a familiar name for everyone) can also play, Your Highness is simply ......"
Maybe I didn't know how to praise me for a while, but he was "stuck"!
"Yes, Your Highness is really ......"
Damn it! Can't let this guy Takeda take the lead!
The local tyrants threw meaty and even disgusting compliments on my head.
There are few in heaven that praise me, and nothing on earth, and nothing in eternity, and unprecedented...... Phew, the last word sounds unlucky.
If it were usual, I would take these words as polite, and the left ear and the right ear would go in more, just listen to it.
But it's not like we're in a meeting, so I didn't go out of my way to "warn" against them.
The more I listen, the more comfortable I feel.
So under everyone's praise, my tail is getting higher and higher.
At this time, a strange thought suddenly popped into me.
In the future history of world music, will I be judged on the same level as Bach, Haydn, or even Beethoven and Mozart?
Well, it's hard to say.
However, I came up with this idea.
Just explain.
I'm not far from being "brazen......
Although my little life is comfortable, it doesn't mean that everyone is like this.
At least for now, Hideharu Hatano is having a hard time.
Yagami Castle and the main castle tower
Hideji Hatano sat on the seats, staring at the man on his right hand first.
Naomasa Akai!
Akai Naomasa has now joined the Hatano family as a guest secretary.
Regarding the relationship between Hideharu Hatano and Naomasa Akai, it is really not enough to say in one word!
Back then, Hideji Hatano was able to inherit the position of family governor in the hands of a group of clansmen, relying on the great help of Akai Naomasa.
However, after he sat firmly in the position of the family governor, he found that almost all of the ice counties that had always belonged to the Hatano family were taken away by Akai Naomasa who took advantage of the opportunity of his family's civil war.
Of course, you can't expect others to spit it out again.
But it's really unwilling to lose it like this.
No way!
I've got to get Akai to bleed.
Isn't there a conflict between the Akai family and the Naito family? Good! Start here!
So Hideji Hatano, who has a fairly high IQ, sowed discord.
The two families, who were already at odds, were soon fighting with Jiuxiang under his "tinkering" fingers.
How else to say that Hideji Hatano is a character!
Taking this opportunity, he perfectly interpreted the phrase "going down the mountain to pick peaches".
By the time the Akai family and the Naito family were exhausted.
Hidehide Hatano, who has always been neutral, suddenly announced that he would send troops to attack Naito!
The Naito family, which was already seriously depleted in strength, naturally couldn't withstand him at once, so the army was defeated, and even the governor died in Hejiu Township.
It is said that it has become the victorious side, and Akai Naomasa should be happy.
But he was not happy at all.
Although he obtained Holu County, including Wahisa Township, the entire central part of Tamba was completely acquired by the Hatano clan.
In other words, after working hard and tiring for so long, I took a small sesame seed, and people picked it up cheaply, so I fished out the largest and roundest watermelon.
Akai Naomasa is hairy!
You kid dare to take advantage of Uncle Ben!
Don't let you suffer a loss, don't mix with my "Tanba Red Ghost"!
So not long after the end of the battle with Jiuxiang.
The Akai family fought with the Hatano family again.
The battle went on and on for nearly a decade.
Because the two sides are half a catty to eight taels, no one can eat anyone.
Both sides take each other to the bone.
However, this situation finally came to an end after the Oda family declared war on Tanba.
Let's be unanimous with the outside world first......
To be honest, Naomasa Akai ran to himself after the defeat. Instead of surrendering Akechi Mitsuhide, Hideji Hatano is still very happy, although this old thing is annoying, but he can still increase his combat power a little!
However, now, with the defeat after defeat, the Oda army has besieged Yagami Castle into an iron barrel, and Hideharu Hatano has begun to lose confidence in Akai Naomasa, who is in charge of leading the troops in battle.
"My lord! Make a decision! Just when I was looking at Akai Naomasa intently.
A voice came.
When I turned my head, it was the retainer of the Four Heavenly Kings Zhengxiao.
The Four Heavenly Kings were originally Naito's retainers, but after the battle with Jiuxiang, he was "recruited" by himself, and he has been quite serious about doing things over the years, and he is more satisfied with him.
At present, the Hatano family has different opinions on how to deal with the Oda army, which has reached 50,000 people (including local tyrants' vassals).
Like Akai Naomasa and his own kindred Hatano Munesada insisted on fighting to the death. Especially Naomasa Akai, he can't wait to eat the wise father and son alive.
And his younger brother, Hatano Hidesho, is much more "dovish", he advocates peace talks, and many people in the family agree with his opinion.
Just now, the two factions quarreled in front of them, and they almost started to fight.
"It seems difficult to fight......"
Hatano covered his head, he was indeed quite big now.
The battle is definitely not winnable, so what about Cage City?
"It doesn't seem easy to cage the city......"
Here it is necessary to first describe the topography of Hatano's residential castle Yagami Castle.
Yagami Castle was built on the southern side of the Sasayama Basin, which is separated by the Sasayama River, and in addition to the main castle, there are two branch castles, Okuya Castle at the foot of the mountain, and Hokoji Castle on the top of the mountain on the other side of the basin.
In the middle of the basin is the castle town, and the Okuya River next to it leads directly to the castle, so you don't have to worry about running out of water when defending the castle.
Therefore, in the year of the great drought, it is almost impossible to carry out the "thirst killing" tactic.
Ironically, although there was no major drought this year, the continuous heavy rainfall in the territory caused severe waterlogging (Tampodo Mountain, which has indeed suffered many waterlogging in history), and the grain production was greatly reduced.
Looking around, the Yamana clan had taken refuge in Oda Nobunaga, and the Isshiki and Mori clans were unable to rescue them because the road was blocked...... What's more serious is that the food in the city has been holding on for less than half a year!
Thinking of this, Hideji Hatano gritted his teeth.
"Let's talk about peace!!"
When he said this, he was almost certain that he had "plucked" these three words from between his teeth.
"No, you can't! Your Highness!!! ”
In the end, it was a hardcore militant, and Akai Naomasa was the first to jump out.
He shouted with a punching bag-sized fist.
"Oda Nobunaga is not only brazen, but also brutal and unkind, Your Highness! How did he compare the prospect of his Chaocang with the monk on the mountain, have you forgotten, Your Highness?
The Hatano family has been an enemy of it for a long time, and I'm afraid Oda Nobunaga has long held a grudge in his heart! If Your Highness bows to him, he will definitely find all kinds of reasons to send Your Highness to Kyoto, and then put him under house arrest or even kill him! ”
If I were on the scene now, I would have held Akai's hand and said with a handful of snot and tears:
It turns out that you are also a traverser, otherwise how could you predict the ending of Hatano so accurately?
Although Akai Naomasa was a bit alarmist, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
After all, Oda Nobunaga has done many times when he broke his promise and deceived and killed the surrendered soldiers.
"I'm afraid His Highness Akai is a little worried,"
Hatano Hidesho said coldly.
"If the family submits to the Oda family, then what crime should Oda Nobunaga use to punish the family?"
Unlike his brother, Hatano Hidesho has always looked at Akai Naomasa very unpleasantly, putting aside the past, even now, in his opinion, it is Akai Naomasa's lack of skills in conquest and the use of troops in five directions that have led to the current predicament of the Hatano family.
"Tsumi, the Ice and other families have already surrendered, and Akechi Mitsuhide has also treated them well, and he hasn't embarrassed them!!"
"That's because they're all little trash fish!"
In the face of Hideji Hatano's sarcasm just now, Akai Naomasa's old face turned red.
"But this family is different, in this war, almost all the forces of the people of the Tambo Kingdom are supporting this family! In this way, even the uneducated rural villagers will come to the conclusion that their own family is the first evil in this war! The little miscellaneous fish, Oda Nobunaga may be able to let it go, because he thinks very highly of himself and doesn't look down on him at all!
But this family is different! In his opinion, if he doesn't clear his family, then he won't be able to completely pacify Tanba! ”
There was indeed some truth in his words, and behind him, a group of "hawks" nodded one after another.
However, after listening to his words, Hidesho Hatano not only did not change his mind, but became angry!
Akai old dog is taking the Hatano family to make his own profits!!
In the end, because he is too young, Hatano Hidesho has an instinctive rejection and resistance to the "sworn enemy".
Regardless of whether he is correct or not, in his own opinion, he cannot be recognized!
"Good good ......"
After saying three "good" words in a row, Hidesho Hatano sneered.
"His Royal Highness Akai is really insightful, but it seems that it is a little difficult to win in battle......"
"You!"
"Alright, stop arguing!"
As the sovereign, Hideharu Hatano finally spoke.
"Xiushang! Go and prepare and talk to Akechi Mitsuhide in three days! ”
