In addition to not being afraid of the people's rebellion, the clan also has a purpose, that is, he wants to use this matter to try the loyalty of the people, and now he thinks he is the ruler of Hida, if he doesn't understand the thoughts of the people, then the lord will be too unsuccessful, if no one rebels this time, then once the family is rich, the clan will continue to reduce taxes, otherwise, five taxes and one is the end.

Thinking of this, I only heard the clan sect speak: "No need, the best strategy at the moment is to respond to all changes with the same, since they want to come, let them come, they just need to monitor closely, and let the clan chief, Yamauchi Kazutoyo and others increase the intensity of patrolling in the territory, if the other party wants to incite in the territory, then let them be, if they want to destroy the territory, then kill them all, okay, go and do it immediately." ”

"Yes, please rest assured, a hundred monks and soldiers, the subordinates will not let one of them be caught, and the subordinates will retire."

In order to prevent being discovered by the Takayama army, they were not only divided into more than a dozen groups, but also did not take the main road, and not only that, he also asked them to change into shabby clothes, bring hats, carry wooden boxes on their backs, and pretend to be monks who are traveling on the road, when they learned that everyone has successfully infiltrated Hida, the teachings of Terurenji Temple feel very lucky, he thinks that as long as they can enter Hida, then it is equivalent to half of the success.

But he didn't know the way, he and the hundred monks and soldiers every move has not escaped the monitoring of the Takayama ninja, although he knows that there are many ninjas in the Takayama family, but he has the ability of the other party, that is, there is an order from the Takayama clan, otherwise, I am afraid that they will all be beheaded before they get out of Kaga.

Because he entered the enemy's territory, the teachings of Terurenji Temple did not dare to be too public, and in order to reduce the target, he led the two of them to infiltrate Matsukura Town. Of course, he preferred to act alone, but the two of them said that they would not leave, and that they had to act with him, obviously. Before leaving, they had already received instructions from Qili Lai Zhou, saying that they were helping themselves, but in fact they were spying.

Although the teachings of Zhaolian Temple were angry about this, he did not dare to show it on his face, and he knew that if he made any moves, then these two monks who seemed to be not weak would kill themselves on the spot without mercy.

Matsukura is the only town in Hida Province. Once the Chinese people rebelled, the losses to the Gao Shan family were much worse than the peasant rebellion in ten villages. So as soon as he entered Hida, he went straight here, and out of prudence, after the teachings of Terurenji arrived, he did not immediately start to act, but found a nondescript accommodation in the town, and when he settled down, he first took the three of them out to find out the news. Then decide how to do it.

The news he found out on this day made him very excited, and it could be said that he had reached the point of ecstasy, obviously since the Takayama clan moved the city to Takayama City. He has completely abandoned this place, and he has been wandering around outside for more than a long time, not to mention a samurai, even Ashigaru has not seen a single one, which is enough for him to confuse the people in the town without any scruples, without worrying about being discovered by the people of the Takayama family, isn't this opportunity just for himself.

I've been to the teachings of Terurenji Temple in Matsukura Town countless times, so I'm familiar with the shops inside, and if you're stoking a rebellion in the town, the best place to go is the tavern. Matsukura is so small that there is only one decent tavern, which leaves them with time to choose.

Unlike the quiet streets, it's not an exaggeration to say that the tavern is full of people, especially around the gaming tables, where the shouting is almost non-stop.

The three of them sat down in front of the empty seats, ordered some food and drink, and began to pay attention to what the people around them were talking about.

Due to the fact that the battle between the Takayama family and the Takeda family had just passed. So the conversation basically revolves around this topic, and there are all kinds of people involved, including drunken drunkards, small merchants dressed modestly, and more often than not, farmers who come to the town to buy grain or daily necessities.

As soon as the three of them sat down, they heard a farmer-like person say excitedly: "I have seen the battle between the main hall and the Takeda family, the main hall is wearing golden helmets and golden armor, holding a spear in his hand, directly rushing through thousands of enemies, and only one shot pierced the general of the Takeda family, otherwise, how could the Takeda family retreat so quickly." If it weren't for the fact that I was old, I would have wanted to follow the main hall to fight. ”

Speaking of this, he took a sip of wine and continued: "By the way, I heard that the main hall treats Ashigaru very well, not only does he eat rice at once, but he also has twenty Fenglu ...... a month."

Seeing that someone pouted, he hurriedly said: "I'm not talking nonsense, a baby in our village was selected by the main hall a few months ago, and this is what the baby said herself."

It's not just to listen to him say, the tinkle of the baby's poor family before, and then look at what he's wearing now, the armor can't even be worn by ordinary samurai, and the new houses have been built in three, as long as he goes back, the village can go outside the village, if you don't believe it, you can go and see it.

That is, my baby is too young, and when he grows up, I will let him go to the main hall. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, some people nodded in agreement, and some people laughed and said nothing, and a small businessman really didn't want to continue listening, so he sneered: "It's really nonsense, even if you don't know the way, don't talk nonsense, according to rumors, Lord Takayama doesn't know martial arts at all, and the reason why he can achieve such results today is all due to strategy, so hard that you haven't heard of Lord Takayama's title of Owari no Fox?" If you're as brave as you say, why don't you call it Owari no Tora. ”

Although this businessman knows a lot of things, he doesn't know that Nobuhide, the ancestor of the Oda family, has the reputation of Owari no Tora, even if others dare to rise, the clan will not dare to use it.

If Nobunaga thinks of this festival one day, I'm afraid that the clan will be unlucky, and no one wants others to be confused with their father.

The farmer is too supportive of the Takayama clan, since the Takayama clan sect became the master of Hida, not only did the autumn not commit any crimes, but also reduced taxes, and this reduction is not a little bit, ten taxes one, five taxes one, even dreaming how much he dare not think, otherwise, how can the Hida farmer, who has always lived a difficult life, have spare money to come to the tavern to drink.

And the first half of what he said just now was indeed made up by himself, and now that someone has exposed it in public, he is unwilling to admit it, only to see him blushing and saying: "This can still be fake, this is what I saw with my own eyes." ”

The merchant was also unrelenting, and soon the two argued.

Sitting next to him, he had already listened to the teachings of Zhaolian Temple, but he stood up, walked between the two people who were arguing, and sighed: "Alas, no matter who wins or loses, it is always the common people who suffer. ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, the two who were arguing immediately stopped, and the people around him also focused their eyes on him.

"According to this opinion, the Takayama family is defeated by the Takeda army, and in order to maintain their rule, they will fight and rebel, and the time has come for you to suffer."

The teachings of Zhaolian Temple originally thought that when these words came out, the people present would inevitably echo them, after all, all the powerful family heads in the world would not put these Shengdou small people in their eyes, for the family masters, they were just tools used by themselves to collect money, this point don't look at the ignorance of the common people, but the heart is not unclear, otherwise it will not happen frequently.

The usual method of the monks to incite rebellion is to arouse the dissatisfaction of the people against the lord, and then give them a small amount of temptation such as food, so that it is basically successful.

But what he didn't expect was that the seven or eight people sitting there didn't fall into the trap at all, and as soon as he finished speaking, the people present stopped doing it, especially a few farmers.

However, although the monks are not as good as the samurai, their status is much higher than that of the peasants, so they only heard one of them say: "This master, it seems that you don't know much about our poor country, if you do tell you in the past, I will catch up with it once, but the high mountain hall will never do this, not only did not fight and extort, but adjusted the tax to five taxes and one, and now it is ten taxes and one, master, you have been to many places, and you have seen many things, there is that the lord will be like the main hall, so for our sake, In the future, I don't have to worry about food. ”

The reason why he started with this is not because he knows that the daimyo will generally increase taxes and taxes after the war, so as to quickly replenish them, which has basically become a common practice, but who would have thought that the Gaoshan clan not only did not raise taxes, but also adjusted the taxes so low, which is too unreasonable.

But he didn't want to give up like this, he waited for his mood to calm down a little, and said: "I see that you have been deceived by Lord Takayama, the Takayama family has so many samurai and ashigaru to raise, not to mention five taxes and one, even two taxes and one can't afford it, now he is afraid that the territory will be unstable, and after his strength is restored, even if he decides to change, what can you do with him?" Want to rebel? It was too late then. ”

"No way, Takayama-sama would never do such a thing." The peasant who had quarreled with the merchant who had infinite worship for the Takayama clan immediately shouted righteously.

And there is a peasant outside the order who is not as loyal as him, so he hurriedly asked: "Big... Master, what should you do? If the mountain hall really doesn't count, I have a lot of family, maybe I will have to starve to death. ”

When he spoke, his eyes never left the wine bowl in his hand at all, and he originally thought that he would be able to live a good life in the future, so after thinking about it for a long time, he decided to come here for a luxurious time, but now after listening to this wandering monk, the wine in the bowl is no longer wine in his eyes, but the life of his family, so even the hand holding the wine bowl began to tremble a little.
