Chapter 884: Raiding Korea (9)
Yamashiro in Yoshida-gun. At this time, it was already night, and most people had already entered their dreams, but Kobayakawa Takakei, as the acting governor of the Maori family at this time, was still buried in the case. Raiding Korea, Mori Terumoto only brought Yoshikawa Motoharu and Mori Motokiyo there, and handed over the governance of the territory to Kobayakawa Takakei.
"Strengthening the centralization of power...... Attack on North Korea...... Looking for the descendants of Qi Kang...... Stepping down from the position of Right Minister...... In addition to the previous rumors about the ancestors of the Japanese...... "Kobayakawa Takakei kept writing and drawing on a piece of paper, and if anyone saw it, they would definitely find that what was written on it was exactly what happened to the Oda family after the unification of the world."
After a long while, Kobayakawa Takakei stopped writing, looked at what was written on it, and a helpless smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "If what I expected is not bad, then what Oda Nobunaga is trying to do is too shocking." ”
He threw the paper into the oil lamp, and it was not until it was completely reduced to ashes that Kobayakawa Takakei got up and walked outside the house, sat in the hallway, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and fell into deep thought. He didn't believe that Oda Nobunaga would dare to do this, because no one in history dared to do this except for that Heishomon brother.
When all impossibilities are eliminated, whatever is left is the truth, even if it is no longer possible. Although Takakei Kobayakawa has not seen Sherlock Holmes. But beyond this explanation, Kobayakawa Takakei couldn't find Oda Nobunaga's purpose for doing so.
Although many people think that Oda Nobunaga just wants to serve as both Sekihaku and Seiyi, in Kobayakawa Takakei's opinion, this is simply nonsense. Because with Oda Nobunaga's current power, as long as a word is revealed, he doesn't even need to do anything, and the imperial court will hand over the positions of Sekihaku and Seiyi generals to Oda Nobunaga, and it doesn't matter if there is even another Taisei minister.
Birth? Precedent? In the face of absolute power and power, these are just a joke.
But even if you know this, what can Kobayakawa Takakei do? No! Not only because the main force of the Maori family was in Korea at this time, but also because after the reform, the rule of all forces over the local area was declining rapidly. Unless the forces of Japan as a whole are united, we can only pray that the common people will be on the side of the emperor. It's just that what will those civilians choose? Takakei Kobayakawa can also guess with his toes.
After all, under the Oda family, the lives of the common people were far greater than at any previous time. Moreover, the Oda family not only gave them a peaceful life, but also gave them a variety of life choices, including samurai.
"Perhaps, that's why my father forcibly tied the family to Oda Yoshinobu before he died, right?" Kobayakawa Takakei thought helplessly. Thinking of this, Takakei Kobayakawa decided to bury this matter in his heart. If it spreads, it will certainly cause an uproar, but if it does, it will undoubtedly push the Mori family to the opposite side of the Oda family.
It's okay if the Oda family loses and perishes in the end, but what if the Oda family wins? Kobayakawa Takakei didn't dare to bet, and he couldn't afford to gamble.
State of Korea.
As time passed, cities in various parts of Korea fell. However, as the Korean army continued to be defeated, the resistance of the people began to grow. Never doubt the power of a country in the face of its survival. And now, the Oda Army has seen it.
The first rebel army was Kwak Jae-woo of Gyeongsang-do, a young man who was only 22 years old and sold all his family wealth to gather his own family and fellow villagers to assist the Korean government and army in Yiyeong-gun. Although it eventually fell, it fled and organized a civil uprising elsewhere. This rebel army continued to attack the Oda family's supply routes, trying to delay the Oda army.
It's a pity that at this time, he is not the 40-year-old liberal arts student in history, and he is far from being as mature and talented as in history. At the same time, the opponent he faced, although it was the same as in history, was Maori Terumen. But today's Maori Huiyuan is not only surrounded by Yoshikawa Motoharu, Inoue Motokan, Motojin Motojo and other generals who have fought from the troubled times, but also not as ineffective as in history.
Therefore, he was tragic, in history, he led the volunteers to fight the Japanese army so that the Japanese army did not dare to invade the area south of Sangju and west of the Nakdong River, and cut off all the supply lines connecting Jinhae, Yeongsan, Changning, Xuanfeng, Xingzhou and other places, but now he is being chased by the capital town of this city and fled in all directions.
However, although Kwak Jae-woo's rebel army failed, more rebel armies continued to appear all over the country, such as Ko Kyung-myeong of Jeolla Province and Cho Heon of Chungcheong-do, some of them were monks, some were local wealthy merchants, but at this moment, they all had the same identity, patriots. The strongest of them was an insurrectionary army led by Yi Sunsin. He organized a rebel army of more than 4,000 men in Asan, Chungcheong-do, and initially tried to attack the navy led by Daeju-hak.
Because Yi Sunsin believed that only by defeating this navy could he completely defeat the Japanese invaders. Unfortunately, in the face of the Oda family's navy, the rebel army led by Yi Sunsin did not even have a chance to get close. After all, it was impossible for the rebel army led by him to have any powerful warships, or that there were no ships in the whole of Korea that could match the Galen ships.
After recognizing the reality, he changed his goal and began to attack the Oda army in Chungcheongdo, but although he was the only famous general in the Joseon Dynasty in history, he still did not have much advantage against the combination of Shibata Katsuie and Takeda Katsuyori. After all, even if he is really a rare famous general, the troops under his command are just ordinary civilians.
The same is true of the rebels elsewhere, who are not afraid to die, but they don't have much chance against the well-armed Oda army and the samurai who have fought their way out of the troubled times.
In particular, in Heian Province, which Oda Yoshinobu was in charge of, he took the border of Korea and Ming in just one day, and then ordered Oda Shinna, Maeda Keiji, and Honda Tadakatsu to lead the army to sweep Pyongan Province, and by the way, besieged Pyongyang while ordering the navy of Daijutsuru to transport troops as soon as possible.
At the same time, he sent all the ninja troops under his command out to guard the main roads between the Korean and Ming kingdoms, in case the Ming kingdom knew the news. Although Oda Yoshinobu also knew that it was impossible to hide the news, as long as he had one more day, the chances of completely occupying Korea would be greater.
"I hope we can hold out until we can completely take over the whole of Korea," Oda thought confidently......
