Chapter 503: Target Antler County
Totoki Yoshimori's words made Soharu Tsugawa fall into deep thought. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the past, in the eyes of Tsugawa Soji, the southern family was the biggest enemy of the Tsugawa family in the Northern Ou region. But now, judging from the situation of the troops in the Luzhong region sent by the southern family this time, the Tsugawa family has been able to occupy an advantage in terms of troops. And Totoki Yoshimori's proposal does have some truth.
"So, since you proposed this plan, what would you do if the family appointed you as the general of the raiders in Antler County?" Soharu Tsugawa threw the question to Yoshimori Totoki again.
Hearing Tsugawa Soji's words, Totoki Yoshimori was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said in ecstasy, "Does the lord want to let the general serve as the general attack Antler County?" "Happiness came so suddenly, Totoki Yoshimori couldn't believe his ears at all. Originally, Totoki Yoshimori just planned to make this suggestion, maybe it could make Tsugawa Soharu value himself more, but he didn't expect Tsugawa Soji to directly have the intention of making himself the general to attack Antler County, which made Totoki Yoshimori's eyes red.
The situation of an ordinary retainer like Totoki Yoshimori leading an army to conquer a place alone is very uncommon among ordinary forces. Generally, those who can serve as generals are basically important ministers or elders in the family, so Toshi Yoshimori is so excited. This is an opportunity to show yourself to the world, and you must not let it go! Totoki Yoshimori thought excitedly!
Looking at the excitement on Totoki Yoshimori's face, Tsugawa Soji said with a smile, "Before this, you at least give me a reasonable plan to convince my family and retainers, right?" ”
"Lord!" After making up his mind, Totoki Yoshimori continued, "If I am the general below, how many troops can the lord give me?" ”
Soharu Tsugawa thought for a moment, then said, "Up to 1,500 people!" "The Tsugawa family sent troops this time, and a total of 2,000 troops were mobilized. Excluding the troops left behind in the territory and those that have yet to be trained, 1,500 men is almost the limit of mobilization. After all, this is a "transnational expedition, not the previous rookies pecking at each other." ”
"Judging from what I had learned from the merchants and ronin of the past, there is now a state of instability within Antlers. The Hanawa family, the Dali family and other wealthy families unusually resisted the rule of the Maomanai family and the Changniu family over the Antler County, so the subordinates would inevitably divide the interior of the Antler County first. As long as the Antler County can take the lead in chaos, even if the lord only gives 500 troops, my household Shi Yisheng can also use the name of the household to guarantee the name of the Antler family, and it will be the lord to sweep away the Antler County! After speaking, Totoki Yoshimori looked at Tsugawa Soji with a resolute expression, and then turned his head to look at the other retainers in the hall.
Antler-gun is a basin-like area surrounded by the Ou Mountains on all sides, but Antler-gun is located between Iwate-gun, Akita-gun, Senhoku-gun, and the chaff-gun, Tsugaru region, and in the past, Antler-gun was the focus of major forces, but because the more powerful enemies around the Antler-gun such as the Spo family, the Ando family, the Tozawa family, and the Nanbu family had their own concerns, there was never a real ruler in the country.
However, despite its small size, the land is quite fertile, at least for the entire Kita-Ou region. To put it simply, the area of Antlers County is only one-30th of the entire territory of the southern family, but the stone height is equivalent to one-tenth of the southern family!
The fertile land is very popular with the surrounding powers, but because of the unique geographical environment of Antler County, no one has succeeded in dominating Antler County. It was only now, with the defeat of the Ando family by the Tsugawa family, that the southern family took control of Antlers County. And this kind of control is only a nominal control, even if Mao Manei Xiufan and Changniu Masayi and others have begun to gradually control Antler County under the arrangement of Southern Qingzheng, but with little effect.
Originally, it was oppressed by the powerful power of the southern family. Wealthy families such as the Hanawa family, the Dasato family, the Ishinotori Valley family, and so on the surface, were still subjugated to the southern family, but after the last time the Ishokine Nobubo led people to touch the Tsugawa family outside the Ducobalt City, Hanawa and Dasato Qincheng and others had some other ideas.
And what really made the two of them decide was the defeat of the southern family last year. After the defeat of the southern family, in order to prevent the Sibo family from taking advantage of the situation to attack the southern family's base camp in the country of Kuanbe, they transferred some troops from the Maoma family and other forces. After Hanawa and the others returned to Antler County, they saw the defeat of the southern family and the power of the southern family such as the Mao Manai family and the Changniu family in Antler County, and soon declared their independence again.
And the southern family is busy planning the Spo family at this time, so Nanfang Haruma can't care so much about the "chaos" of Hanawa and others, and just let Naganiu Masayoshi and Mao Manai Xiufan maintain Antler County.
However, in a later "scuffle", Masatomo Ishinoya Masatomo, who had been nodding to the southern family, didn't know which tendon was wrong, and actually defected. This added fuel to the already unstable situation in Antlers, which is now in turmoil.
After listening to Totoki Yoshimori's words, Tsugawa Soji nodded in agreement. No one here knows more about the situation in Antler County than Tsukawa Soji, because Iwaki Jiro and Zang Liji Mitsumi and others will bring some information about the Ou region to Tsugawa from time to time.
However, Totoki Yoshimori can learn such a situation from the mouths of past merchants and ronin, and he can be regarded as a talent. Moreover, the strategy proposed by Totoki Yoshimori can be called a fairly sound strategy in the eyes of Tsugawa Soharu. Tsugawa Soji had to treat this retainer who didn't know much about him at this time, and it seems that there are a lot of buried talents.
"Not bad!" Soji Tsugawa said with satisfaction, "If you can name such a strategy, I can indeed give you this task!" ”
"Thank you, my lord!" Toshi Yoshimori suddenly said excitedly.
"Don't worry!" Soji Tsugawa interrupted Yoshimori Totoki, and continued, "Within Antlers County, the strength of the Hanawa family, the Dazato family, and the Ishinotoriya family is not strong, and they can compete with the Naganiu family and the Maomanai family. One is that the strength of the wealthy families such as the Mao Manai family has also decreased, and the other is the sudden abandonment of Masatomo Ishinoya Shotomo. ”
"Therefore, this time the troops should not be sent too quickly, nor too slowly. If it's too fast, the wealthy families in Antler County will see that their family wants to attack Antler County, which will inevitably make these wealthy families unite to resist their own family! ”
"And if it's too slow, when the Antlers County is decided, it won't help the family to go again. So the timing of the attack needs to be controlled by yourself! Soji Tsugawa continued.
Toshi Yisheng stood up from the ground violently, and said with a firm face, "I am determined to live up to the trust of the lord!" ”
"Hmm!" Soji Tsugawa nodded and said, "This time I will send Tozawa Moriyoshi and Nobi Nobita and Abe Enta of the Yamaguchi people as your strength. There is only one requirement, and that is to win! ”
"Hah!"
