Chapter 17: The Bald Donkey's Strategy

The Mirror Water Sect, a major force located in the upper reaches of the Sanhe River, and the surrounding areas, whether it is the Oda family, the Uesugi family, or the daimyo whose fiefdom is located here, all bow their heads to them. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The territory directly under it is more than fifty li, and there are as many as 10,000 people working for it, more than 1,000 standing monks, and at least 5,000 people can be pulled out at any cost.

Compared to the Shaolin Temple in the Central Plains of Dongtu, it seems that the monks of Dongying are more powerful?

The power of the Dongying temple in this world is similar to the history of the footpot chicken in the Earth era, and there have also been many peasant uprisings led by Buddhist monks and fights between Buddhist factions.

Especially during the Warring States period, neither the shogunate nor the imperial family had real power to control the situation, which led to civil wars, riots, banditry, and clan feuds.

This period was a period of political turmoil, similar to the dark medieval situation in Western Europe, where Buddhist monastic monks fought with each other.

Under the banner of Buddhism, he led the people to an armed uprising to overthrow the decadent and incompetent daimyo and samurai, but it was the monks themselves who replaced them.

For example, the Shinshu peasant uprising, the Samshu Isōmune uprising, and the Shinshu Shinshu monk uprising that broke out in the Kaga Province (present-day Ishikawa Prefecture) area.

In particular, the victory of the Shinshu peasant uprising in the Kaga Province region placed the administration of Kaga Province in the hands of Shin religious believers for the next hundred years, and the leadership structure was composed of representatives of the upper rural class, monks, and peasants.

The Mirror Water Sect is obviously the same as its counterparts on the earth, controlling the forces in the upper reaches of the Sanhe River, flattering the three families on the surface, but in essence he is still a soil emperor.

But the increasingly fierce war has made it time for them to choose sides.

With the expansion of the Oda family, they had been preparing for a long time to send monks to join Nobunaga's team and make some contributions to the great cause of the shogunate in the future.

During the last border conflict, the current Kagamizu sect had already let his direct soldiers join Nobunaga's army, and constantly attacked the back roads of the Uesugi family

But who would have thought that Edo was actually captured by a group of Xiyi barbarians, and the front line could not be maintained for a while, and Nobunaga was not in the mood to fight the female tiger again, leaving the troops behind the battle line.

Nobunaga's main force did not lose much, but the problem was that the remaining broken forces and allies suffered.

When you see the situation, the troops will run, and we local factions will make hair!?

Naturally, the Kagamisui Sect was liquidated by the Uesugi family after the war, and the unlucky host and more than 200 cronies and monks were executed, and those who escaped escaped, and they were scattered as birds and beasts.

In its place, there is a new generation of capitulation factions that are completely on the side of the Uesugi family.

Originally, the Uesugi family was satisfied just by killing the people in power, but after Nobunaga recovered Edo, there were so many troops at once, how could this be endured!

The military advisor Li Qiwei naturally couldn't let Nobunaga march steadily, and the biggest opposition forces in the vicinity were these bald donkeys, so with the help of Buddhist forces, it seems to be a good strategy to crusade against Nobunaga?

"But Master Li, you are too reckless, how can you come to the Mirror Water Sect in person!?"

"I'm worried that these bald asses won't be reliable, Nancy."

In the upper room of the Jingshui Sect, the chief retainer from the Uesugi family, the military advisor Li Qiwei, was resting, but his maids or assistants did not agree with his actions at all.

"As the old saying goes, the son of a thousand daughters can't sit down, Master Li was born in the country, why don't you understand this truth?"

The assistant's words did not make Li feel anything, but looked at Nancy Li with interest, and she was really dressed hehehe.

"Nancy, why don't you take this ninja suit like a work outfit?"

"W-This? Probably...... It's more comfortable to wear, and it's better to sweat...... Wait, why are you talking about my clothes!! ”

Nancy was a little shy at first, but she immediately realized that she had been molested by the military master, and when she was angry, she decisively used her fists to teach this one a lesson.

Regardless of these two bold representatives of the Uesugi family, whatever they want to do, the bald donkey of the Mirror Water Sect must be treated with a smiling face.

But this doesn't mean that the bald donkeys will want to do their best for the Uesugi female tiger and die!

At this time, the host and a group of high-ranking people of the Mirror Water Sect sat in the most secret meeting room in the temple, discussing the upcoming Eastern Expeditionary Force.

"You also know that Nobunaga once again led his troops to crusade against the Uesugi Tiger, the problem is that there was a bit of a problem with us standing in line last time, so the Mirror Water Sect has also become the target of the crusade, what do you think should happen next?"

"Of course, I tied up the envoy of the Uesugi family and sent it to Nobunaga to ask for forgiveness, I think it would be good to just catch that Li Qiwei, and that Miss Nancy Li can atone for her sins in the temple where I wait."

"Very good, very good, we are waiting for your support!"

"Bastard!" Seeing these bastards who are cowardly and knowledgeable in super garbage, the host is almost angry.

"Do you think those two will be without guards? The legendary Shinobi is lurking in places we don't know right now, do you want to die? ”

Hearing the name of the demon ninja, the noisy bald donkeys quieted down, those Uesugi family ninja army are not easy to deal with.

There has always been a legend that the Demon Ninja is specially used to deal with monsters and monsters, and to master the powerful Oriental Occult Arts, and the ordinary army can't beat them at all.

If you look at it according to the actual combat strength, a small number of mages with high mana in the temple, onmyoji in Yinyangliao, shrine maidens, monsters and monsters scattered outside, plus demon ninja, this constitutes the vast majority of Dongying's supernatural power.

"So, don't count on it internally, Nobunaga sent 5,000 Brittan mercenaries from overseas with new iron cannons, but we don't have much information."

"Why should the host worry about these barbarians, the battle of Edo must have been won by the West Yi because Nobunaga was not careful, and there were only 5,000 people...... This seems to be a bit too much......

Hey, the host shook his head a little tiredly, what kind of goods these cronies of his own, he knew not long after he came to power.

Corruption, bribery, extortion and robbery, love money and sisters, regard not doing business as a lofty ideal, and work at the head of all evils, anyway, everything is done by others.

They're all bastards!!

It's just that the host can't remove them, they are all relatives who support themselves, and it's a bald donkey who doesn't help them.

"There are still a lot of barbarians or something, we might as well gather the people in the territory to prepare, and aren't there two people in the dungeon who are related to Xiyi?"

"You mean that crazy Onmyoji and Xiyi Ranger Knight?"

"That's right, it's the two of them, maybe they can get some information from them, maybe Xiyi will look at the lives of the two of them and choose to surrender without a fight......"

"Makes sense!"

Hey, that's how the bald donkey works, and I don't know if Lorraine and the Eastern Expeditionary Force will surrender when they see these two.

Speaking of which, with the exception of posing as a Norman at Fontainebleau, Lorraine has never surrendered on his own.
