The west of the white ground, known as the white ground Tanbo Shou, but the more well-known name is indeed the third wife of the hundred lands!

Hyakchi Santaifu is the founder of Iga-ryu ninjutsu, and is one of Iga's "three shinobi", on the same level as Hattori and Fujibayashi Sanji!

Shirachi is the head of the Hakuchi family, a wealthy clan in Iga, and although there are dozens of wealthy clans in Iga, the strength of the Hakudi family is already considered to be the strongest.

The real battle of fame in the west of Shirachi is the joint battle in history in which Oda Nobuo, the son of Oda Nobunaga, invaded Iga in the seventh year of Tensho!

During the Tensho period, the Shirachi family gradually expanded its power in Iga. Under the leadership of Masashi Shirachi, Iga Ninja entered its heyday. However, the expansion of its power caused Oda Nobunaga to be uneasy at the time.

In the seventh year of Tensho (1579 AD), Oda Nobunaga ordered his second son, Oda Nobuo, to attack Iga.

At that time, Oda Nobuo believed the words of Shimoyama Kai, the lord of Hinachi Castle of Iga Province, thinking that the people in Iga were not united, and thought that Iga Province could be easily captured, so he rashly led thousands of troops to attack Iga without consulting Oda Nobunaga.

However, because he was too young, coupled with the clumsy command of Oda Nobuo, more than 8,000 Oda troops were defeated by more than 1,000 ninjas gathered by Hakuchi Masashi and Hattori, Fujibayashi and other countries!

After this battle, the name of the three husbands of the hundred places was widely known. Of course, Lao Tzu came after beating his son, and in the end, Iga Country was still pacified by Oda Nobunaga himself.

However, at this time, although the Shirachi family was already the leader of the Iga country, the prestige of Shirachi Masashi had not yet reached that height. Everyone is ambitious, and it is not surprising that Bai Di is west.

Iga Province is bordered by Omi to the north, Ise to the east, and Yamashiro Province and Yamato Province to the west. Needless to say, the mountain city country is in chaos now, and the country of Yamato is also full of wealthy families, and there is no big force at all.

As for Ise Province to the east, although the strength of the Kitabatake clan is not too weak, the situation is also not optimistic. Ise Province is known as a small wargoku, which means that the situation in Ise is like a miniature version of RB wargoku, which shows how chaotic the situation in Ise is.

Although the current head of the Kitabatake family, Kitabatake Harugu, is also a skilled archer and a man with outstanding culture, and he has also suppressed the extremely rampant situation in Ise during the Astronomical years, and solved many troubles such as Ise Jingu, but the Hokahata family is still very unstable.

In this way, only the Hexagon House in the north can meet the requirements of due west of the white ground.

It was with the purpose of relying on the Rokkaku family to achieve the "Iga hegemony" of the Shirachi family, that Shirachi Masai chose to fall to the young master of the Rokkaku family, Rokkaku Yoshiken. Obviously, in the eyes of Bai Di Zhengxi, the straw bag of Hexagonal Yixian is much easier to deal with than Hexagonal Dinglai.....

After exiting Hiyoshi Shrine and continuing southwest over Mt. Hiei, at noon on the second day, Soharu Tsukawa and his entourage appeared near Yamako Honganji Temple (ruins), less than 30 miles from Kyoto.

Yamashina Honganji Temple was originally the main mountain of the Ichijo sect, but it was burned down in the first year of Astronomy, and the main mountain of Honganji Temple was moved to the current Ishiyama Honganji Temple.

At that time, the growing power of the Nichiren sect in the Kinai region caused resistance from the Ichishu and Hokke sects, which later turned into a great rebellion that swept through the Kinai (Astronomical Hokke Rebellion).

Needless to say, the cause and process of the chaos went into detail, but in the new year, Kira decided to slowly get rid of the problem of the number of water characters, and it can only be said that one of the final results was that this Yamashina Honganji Temple was burned down.

Standing in front of the ruined temple gate of Yamashina Honganji, Soharu Tsugawa was even a little worried about whether the wood would fall and hit him.

"My lord, the people from Yoshinoya are here!" Just when Tsugawa Soji was about to get impatient with waiting, Yajima Tadabei cautiously whispered in Tsugawa Soji's ear.

Soji Tsugawa immediately came to his senses, and after stretching a little, Soji Tsugawa immediately rushed out. At this time, the bannermen of Tsugawa Soji were already judging around a large group of war horses.

Seeing that Tsugawa Soji was coming, the flags hurriedly stood aside in silence, while a man who looked like a merchant hurriedly trotted all the way to Tsugawa Soji's side, and said with a flattering face, "The villain Yoshinoya stayed in Beijing to guard Yamada Gonbei and met Tsugawa-sama!" ”

"These horses were prepared after receiving orders from Yoshino-sama half a month ago, and today we finally waited for Tsugawa-sama to come in person. There are a total of 60 horses and 20 horses in this batch, all of which are good horses! Please also ask Tsugawa-sama to accept it! Yamada Gonbei pointed to the war horses led by the flags and said with a smile on his face.

Tsugawa Soji nodded with satisfaction, "You have done a good job in this matter, and when you return to Dewa, the family should ask for credit for you in front of Yoshino Ryoshi, and your reward will be indispensable at that time!" ”

"Zhongbingwei, let everyone load things into the carriage, everyone get on the horse, raise the banner of their own family, and enter Beijing!" Soji Tsugawa straightened his clothes, then took Toki Somitsu (saber) out of a box and solemnly pinned it to his body.

At this time, the bannermen of Tsugawa Soji wore black samurai uniforms and rode war horses to follow behind Tsugawa Soji. And Gamo Hisashi also followed behind with the ashigaru of the iron artillery team carrying the iron cannon, and since the ashigaru of the iron artillery team could not ride a horse, he could only walk.

However, just after walking out for a while, Tsugawa Soji waved his hand to stop the advancing team with a half-squinting look in his eyes, and looked at a monk who suddenly appeared in front of him with a surprised expression, and said as if he had seen a ghost, "Is there Master Juexiao ahead?" ”

........

Mingdefang was dressed as an ascetic, with a hat, a burden on his back, and a bamboo cane. Since the burning of Hiyoshi Shrine, Mingtokubo Juexiao left Hiyoshi Shrine overnight, preparing to carry the letter sent by Honganji Temple and go to Ishiyama Honganji Temple to catch up with old friends.

Mingdefang realized that although he was greedy for money, he was really not a liar, but a "monk who attained the Tao"!

If you really want to talk about seniority, if you see Mingdefang, you have to call yourself "uncle", of course, there is no distinction between these in the "monks". Mingdebo Juexiao has served as the presiding officer of Nakayama Temple, Honda Temple, Doren Temple and other temples in Settsu Province many times, but they have all been resisted and even deposed for "misappropriation" of temple property without permission.

Originally, if he was a little greedy, no one said anything, but the key Mingdefang realized that he had taken all the temple's property and the donations of the Tanyue (donors) for his own enjoyment, which caused public anger.

Over time, after the reputation became ugly, no temple dared to accept Mingdefang. As a result, Mingdefang Juexiao had no choice but to wander around and eat together.

Just defrauded Jin Xiaoju, who was worth hundreds of yuan from the hands of Tsugawa Soji, Mingdefang Juexiao had already thought about using the money to find a quiet place to build a temple by himself, and then marry a few wives and live a life of "no quarrel with the world".

And just as Mingdefang was dreaming while walking on the road, he suddenly heard a ......... behind him
