In particular, in the Battle of Tsuruga, Katayama Moricho defeated 120,000 with 3,500 troops, and the good news came that the Shikoku Legion was gloomy and looked at people with a good face. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoWhether it is Muneharu Shimizu who advocates a rush attack, or Tsuyuki Murakami who advocates slowdown, or Masayuki Hanafu, who provokes civil strife in Tosa with a plan, the core essence is to punish severely, and there is no room for any delay in peace talks.

On the battlefield, the Miyoshi clan defeated the Miyoshi clan in a dignified manner, and the territory of the Miyoshi clan is naturally the spoils of the victors.

Noyama Masayaki agreed with Hanafang Masayuki's idea, and he combined the opinions of Hanafang Masayuki and Murakami Tsuyuki, first sending envoys to Tosa to provoke civil strife, and then attacking Iyo Province, and then sweeping Tosa Province after taking Iyo Province.

Early the next morning, Noyama Masatomo sent two people, Ryo Nakoshi and Kyosuke Arioka. On the surface, the task of the two is to greet Aki Kuni, the lord of Higashitosa Yasui Castle, but in essence, the purpose of the two of them is to provoke Aki Kintoho's ambitions.

The young and vigorous Changzong Yuanqin regarded everyone as fools, but his retainers were not without calm, and the Jiangcun family and Gu Zhongcheng had reservations about the adventurous actions of the Changzong Yuanqin and others, and the change in things was beyond their expectations.

Gu Zhongcheng was ordered to go to Tokushima to negotiate, and Jiangcun's in-laws hurriedly came, pulled Gu Zhongcheng over, and told all the things he was worried about. At this moment of crisis, the Chosamune clan must lower their posture and do their best to make the Date family understand that they are doing this as a last resort, and strive to minimize the bad consequences of this risky action. Otherwise, the weak Chosamune Ibe clan will be hit hard by the Date family, and tens of thousands of troops will pour into Tosa Province, and the mantis arm will be the head of the body.

Anyone who can find out knows that compared to the Date clan, the Chozong Ibu clan is probably the mantis in the mantis arm as a car, and it was crushed fiercely, and looking around, the first Warring States daimyo Miyoshi Yoshiken on Shikoku Island was crushed by the general trend of the world.

Gu Zhongcheng pondered for a long time, and after straightening out the complicated relationship, his heart was even more uneasy, but he knew what he had to do, he pondered for a long time, and said cautiously: "If the conditions of the Date family are too demanding, can you agree to it?" ”

Jiangcun's in-laws barely squeezed out a smile, and nodded solemnly, "As long as the territory is safe, any request can be agreed to first." Quick, must be fast! Once things are irretrievable, it will be the result of death and annihilation. ”

Gu Zhongcheng nodded bitterly, and looked at the Jiangcun in-laws, seeing the more and more solemn expressions on his face, I am afraid that many people in the Changzong and my clan know these things, but only the two of them came forward to advise, and the others were all silent.

The Jiangcun in-laws clenched their fists and said, "Everything is for the sake of the Changzong family!" ”

Gu Zhongcheng responded: "All for the sake of Changzong and my family!" With that, he immediately bypassed Onishi Castle and rushed to the Tokushima base camp.

In fact, this Tokushima Tai was supposed to have been set up by Shimizu Soji, but it was expanded again after the arrival of Noyama Masatomo, and he already intended to build a big castle here to suppress the hidden power of Awa and Awa.

Gu Zhongcheng and Nakoshi Xiu Liang and Arioka Youkyo missed the front and back feet, and when Gu Zhongcheng handed over the prayer post, he waited anxiously. The Tokushima main camp was full of people, and there were no less than dozens of people who sent the prayer posts every day, but they didn't criticize him too much.

Gu Zhongcheng didn't wait too long, the side door of the main formation opened, and a middle-aged warrior and two sturdy ashigaru appeared in front of Gu Zhongcheng and hurriedly walked into the side camp with him. Gu Zhongcheng was uneasy, he didn't know what the attitude of the Date family was, he tried his best to be humble, and he didn't dare to go beyond the slightest etiquette, lest he take advantage of this to make trouble and get into trouble.

Gu Zhongcheng didn't wait too long, he was led to a camp tent by the middle-aged samurai, and Huafang Zhengxing sat inside and personally summoned Gu Zhongcheng. Hanafang Masayuki advocated provoking civil strife in Tosa, and the two people who went to Aki Castle, Akira Nakoshi and Arioka Ukyosuke, were all selected by him.

Hanafang Zhengxing's face was expressionless, his eyes were like torches, and he was domineering, he didn't want to deal with Gu Zhongcheng, but Noyama Yichao ordered him to listen to Gu Zhongcheng's words, listen to and believe it, and see where the courage of Changzong and my relatives came from?

Gu Zhongcheng came from afar, and he seemed to be a little worried. Hanafang Masayuki looked at him condescendingly, put on a cold expression, and said loudly: "It turned out to be Tanbei Tadasumi, who was Masayuki in Shimohanabo Echigo, and was added as the Tosa Affairs Officer of the Shikoku Legion. ”

The Tosa Affairs Officer of the Shikoku Legion is nothing more than Masayuki Hanafu's self-boasting words, and he must not be taken seriously.

However, Gu Zhongcheng took it seriously, he had a little understanding of several main generals of the Four Nations Legion before he came, and knew that this Hanafang Masayuki was one of the three generals under the command of Noyama Yichao, and he had outstanding merits, and he was very important under the command of Yeshan Yichao, and his status was far from being comparable to other officials, and it was more than enough to serve as a general.

Gu Zhongcheng hurriedly made a big salute and said: "Foreign minister Gu Zhongcheng, on the order of my lord, came to explain the matter of Baidi City to Echigo Mori, Changzong and my clan and the Benshan clan are feuds, and the Benshan clan received the assistance of the Onishi clan, and when the fierce battle with the Benshan clan was too hasty, he went too far, and recklessly seized the white city. ”

Hua Fang Zhengxing looked at Gu Zhongcheng, and Gu Zhongcheng didn't dare to raise his head, so he said, "Do you think I look like a fool?" Since there is no sincerity, you go back first, and we will personally go to Gangfeng City to ask the head of the Changzong and my department to return the lost face. ”

Gu Zhongcheng was frightened and frightened, helpless, lying on the ground, with a desperate expression waiting to be slaughtered.

Hanafang Masayuki's face was even more ugly, Gu Zhongcheng regarded him as a fool, and now he pretended to be pitiful and desperate, which made him even more disgusted with the relatives of Changzong and my department, and he did not have any psychological pressure to provoke a civil war in Tosa.

Gu Zhongcheng's fear was indeed faked. Since the Date family let him in, Hanafang Masayuki, one of the three lieutenant generals under the command of the general general, came to meet him in person, indicating that the Date family was well aware of the situation in front of him, and the Date family was the number one force in the world and the strongest man on Shikoku Island. Shiraji Castle is located in the very center of Shikoku Island, and if the stone of Shiraji Castle is not moved, the Date family's army in Awa and Sanki will not be able to send troops to Iyo Province on a large scale, which is why the head of Nagamune and my department dare to take risks.

Gu Zhongcheng knew that Changzong's Yuanqin was young and vigorous, but Changzong's Yuanqin had been educated by his father's countrymen since he was a child, and he was well-equipped with both civil and military skills, and he knew the danger of taking risks, but he also knew that if he didn't take risks, he would only be able to remain mediocre.

Chozong was an ambitious man, and his first battle was accompanied by his father's illness and death, and he vowed to fulfill his father's last wish, and he would kill this mountain and sacrifice it to his father's spirit. Not only that, but he also had the ambition to unify Tosa and then complete the hegemony of the four countries.

Miyoshi Yoshiken was defeated, the Date family invaded Shikoku Island strongly, and the head of the Nagamune family knew that if he didn't work hard, there would be no chance, and he wanted to behave well in front of the Date family, which was why he seized White Land Castle and blocked the Date family at the door.

The head of the Changzong and my department wants to use his own strength to let the Date family see his strength, and then use these as bargaining chips to propose his reconciliation conditions to the Date family, so that the record is there, and the prestige is also gained, but the idea is very good, but the reality is a joke with him.

The head relatives of Changzong wanted to skillfully complete the curve to save the country, but the Date family scoffed at his actions, and Hanafang Masayuki personally came forward to meet Gu Zhongcheng, just to listen to Gu Zhongcheng's explanation, obviously Gu Zhongcheng did not figure out Hanafang Masayuki's thoughts.

Hanafang Masayuki sneered and asked, "On what conditions do you want to exit White Earth City?" He wanted to hear how bold the Changzong and my clan were, and to see how shameless Gu Zhongcheng was, the disgust in his heart deepened.

Gu Zhongcheng chuckled in his heart, he heard something wrong from Hanafang Zhengxing's sneer, and once again remembered the words of his in-laws in Jiangcun before leaving, cold sweat involuntarily seeped into his forehead, and he hurriedly knelt down and said: "My lord is willing to lead the whole clan to submit to the Date family and become the direct retainer of Zhengheng Gong." ”

Hanafang Zhengxing's smile was sluggish, he didn't expect Gu Zhongcheng to put forward such a condition, which made him a little ridiculous. It's really because Masahiro's direct retainers are too complicated, you must know that the whole Shikoku Legion nominally obeys the orders of the legion commander Noyama Masatomo, in fact, from Noyama Masaki to the low-level Ashigaru general, they are all Masahiro's direct retainers, and they directly obey the orders of Masahiro's orders, and when they belong to the Shikoku Legion, they temporarily obey the orders of the corps commander, and after they are established, they will also belong to the Date family.

Hanafang Masayuki understood the meaning of Gu Zhongcheng's words, according to common sense, there is still a big difference between a direct minister and a courtier, and there is also a big difference in the attention and status promotion that he receives, and it directly belongs to the Date family, so the status of the head of the Nagazong and my department in Tosa will also rise.

Gu Zhongcheng saw that Hanafang Masayuki's face looked a little better, and continued: "As we all know, Tosa Province has been guarded by the Hosokawa Kyozhao family since the Muromachi Shogunate, but Tosa has seven forces in Tosa, Motoyama, Yasui, Kira, Tsuno, Chosō Ibu, Kaozong Ibu, and Ohira to divide Tosa, of which the Chozong Ibu clan and the Kasho Ibu clan are loyal to the Hosokawa Kyozhao family, and the other five are sometimes allied and sometimes opposed, with the decline of the Hosokawa Kyozhao family, this is the Bunsho Rebellion. If my lord becomes the direct retainer of Zhengheng Gong, I am willing to be the vanguard of Zhengheng Gong and completely subdue the small ones. ”

Hua Fang Zheng seemed to be persuaded by Gu Zhongcheng, and suddenly said: "If the family affection of Changzong and my department is sincere, then let him come to Tokushima in person within two days, otherwise, he will bear the consequences." ”

Gu Zhongcheng was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Hanafang Masayuki to make such a request, this was something he didn't expect, you must know that surrendering to the Date family was an idea that was inadvertently revealed by the head of the sect of Changzong, and it was actually the words of his family and the Jiangcun family. But Hanafang Masayuki was not wrong, since he wanted to surrender to the Date family and wanted to become a direct retainer of the Date family, then he personally came to Tokushima and gave him two days, which was reasonable and made him unable to refuse.

Gu Zhongcheng walked out of the Tokushima base camp in a daze, and then returned to Baidi City in a daze, along the way he was most worried about the extraneous branches of the Yuan Qin Festival of Changzong and my department, he was worried that Changzong and my clan were in the wilderness, but fortunately, there was no conflict between Baidi City and Daxi City.

However, when Gu Zhongcheng returned, he learned that the Yuan of Changzong and my department was no longer in Baidi City, and returned to Gangfeng City, and it was his younger brother Changzong and Jiangcun who stayed in Baidi City, and the fierce general Fuliu Qinzheng also left Baidi City.

Gu Zhongcheng found Changzong's relatives and Jiangcun's relatives, and asked, "Zuojing, Beihou, what happened?" ”

Jiangcun's in-laws replied: "I don't know yet, I only received the news that An Yi Guohu sent troops to Yesu and Ma Village in Xiangmei County." I didn't expect the speed of An Yi Guohu to be so fast, but this is too strange, I didn't receive any news before that. ”

Gu Zhongcheng nodded, it was indeed illogical, and said: "Indeed, all this came too fast, and it shouldn't be as usual, unless An Yi Guohu already knew the news that we were waiting for the army to be sent to Baidi City, so he took the opportunity to seize Yesu and Ma Village to test our reaction." ”

Changzong's words were a little low, "This, I'm afraid there's a conspiracy behind it?" We waited for the troops to be sent to Baidi City, but they were secretly operating, blocking the mountain road, and my brother's stand-in has been active in Gangfeng City, according to logic, An Yi Guohu should be kept in the dark now. ”

Gu Zhongcheng bowed slightly, the more he thought about it, the more likely it became, and the possibility of conspiracy was probably the greatest, so he asked, "What do you think is a conspiracy?" ”

The Jiangcun family's face suddenly became very ugly, and when they opened their mouths, they frightened Changzong and Gu Zhongcheng, and he said, "Could it be that the Date family sent an envoy to Aki City to say that the Aki National Tiger was moved?" ”

Gu Zhongcheng's face turned pale, and he said uncertainly: "Impossible, right?" Even he himself was a little confused, but he still said Hanafang Masayuki's request, and asked the head of the Chozong and my department to go to Tokushima within three days to plead guilty.

Jiangcun's in-laws shook their heads and said, "I'm afraid it's too late?" ”

It's really too late, Gu Zhongcheng took half a day to return to Baidi City from Tokushima, and now he is going to catch up with the relatives of Changzong and my department, unless he grows wings, otherwise even if the relatives of Changzong and my department ignore the safety of the nest, it is impossible to reach Tokushima within two days.

The Jiangcun family shook their heads and said: "The Date family only gave two days, to be exact, there is still a day and a half, and now there are less than five hundred defenders in Baidi City, I am afraid that they will not be able to resist the attack of the Date family, even if they can stop it, they will not be able to stop it." ”

Gu Zhongcheng and Changzong are at a loss. (To be continued.) )
