Chapter 412: Shonai Mastery

Fortunately, the two father and son of Mogami Yoshimori and Mogami Yoshimitsu were captured alive, the elite of the Mogami family and the other two people in Mogami Hachiri, Mogami County and Murayama County were also captured, and of course Kira Yoshitoki couldn't wait to win over Mogami Yoshimitsu, although there were some fraudulent elements commensurate with his brother, but it also showed from the side that his eagerness was difficult to control, and it was not easy to maintain the situation in Dewa Country without collapsing on Mogami Yoshimitsu's body, and it was indeed not easy for him to calm down.

And another layer of thought fell on the body of the most appeased Yoshimitsu of Dewa Xiao, this person's name Yoshishi Kira is very familiar, when he met Yoshimitsu Mogami for the first time, and found that Yoshimitsu Mogami was just a troubled little hairy child, he immediately had some strange thoughts, before using Mogami Yoshimitsu to appease the people of Dewa can only be regarded as an expedient move, because he has never seen Yoshimitsu Mogami and does not know how tall he is, fat and thin, and he has no heart to consider how old he is and what he likes.

It was different now, he knew that Mogami Yoshimitsu had a poor relationship with his father Mogami Yoshimori, Mogami Yoshimitsu was very opposed to his father's so-called anti-Vietnam alliance initiative, and he did not agree with the implementation of related strategies.

Kira Yoshitoki's attitude towards him was very welcoming.,When they first met, Langoka took out the long-prepared topic.,Marriage strengthens the relationship between relatives and becomes a real ally.,Mogami Yoshimitsu's fiancée is the daughter of Osaki Yoshinao.,It is said that the two have also met a few times to understand each other's temperament and appearance.,Both sides have extremely high expectations for this marriage.,After all, it's the same family and belongs to the Deyu Exploration Question、Oshu Exploration Topic。 Deepening in-law ties is also a necessary means.

Early the next morning. Mogami Yoshimitsu appeared in the castle tower of Oura Castle. When he looked at Kira Yoshishi with a complicated expression, he said softly: "Last night, His Majesty talked with his father for a long time, and finally persuaded his father to give up resistance and obey the Lord, but there are still big differences about the breaking of Yoshihime's marriage contract and other issues, and my father hopes to adopt an adopted daughter to be the side room of the Lord, but His Majesty feels that this is inappropriate and still insists that Yoshihime marry the Lord, and His Majesty has long opposed Yoshihime marrying Date Huizong, and this time it is just a matter of setting things right." It's just a matter of giving Yiji the most suitable home. ”

Kira Yoshitoki sighed: "That's good, that's good...... The burden of persuasion on the side of Mogami Deyu Shou still has to be borne by Yoshimitsu, don't let the old man abdicate with resentment. ”

"What does the Lord mean ......" Mogami Yoshimitsu said secretly Sure enough, looking at him with three points of excitement, five points of expectation and two points of sighing, Mogami Yoshimitsu has no room for this choice, he has already shown that he is willing to surrender to the Lord of the Lord, this young man knows very well that the Yoshinori of Kira does not plan to draw any external retainers, but to really hold the power of the country of Dewa.

If he didn't know how to raise in the early hours of yesterday morning, maybe Ji Liangyi would have placed their father and son under house arrest or even killed them. And then he supported one of his younger brothers to be the governor of the house, and anyway, the Mogami family was surrounded and all the people were captured. Whether he died in the chaos or was executed afterwards is not clear, but when the time comes, Kira Yoshitomo can change his brand and still be a puppet Mogami clan, and he will become a worthless dry bone in the mokata.

Kira Yoshitoki did not let him grovel in exchange for disappointment, I saw him staring at the young man's immature face with a peaceful smile, as if encouraging him to be more confident and strong, and then said in a gentle and powerful voice: "Now that the Izuwa country riot has just passed a hundred ruins, it is the time for young people to show their talents, and it happens that Mogami Deyu Mamoru has been replaced with distraction, Yu feels that Mogami Deyu Mamoru's body is no longer enough to support the heavy burden of the family governor, so let him retire early and give the younger and promising Yoshimitsu to be the family governor!" ”

"Thank you, Lord for hanging the curtain...... "Mogami Yoshimitsu bowed to him for the first time with the salute of master and servant.

Kira Yoshitoki quickly stepped forward to help Mogami Yoshimitsu's arm and said gently, "Eh! Yu said, you and my brother too! Why do you need to be called master and slave again, and in the future, you will call Yu's imperial name, and Yu will still call you Tongzi? How about creating another good story like Yu and Fujitaka? ”

"His Royal Highness has an order, and I will obey it!" Mogami Yoshimitsu said excitedly that the Imperial Palace is one level higher than the Yakata, and can call itself a prince, such as the Hirashima Oka and the Furukawa Okata.

In fact, the current title of the Kira family is very non-standard, and people from all walks of life have various titles for Kira Yoshishi, but only the Imperial House is the most standard title, and Kira Yoshishi could not use the Imperial House number before because the limit of the family character was pressed to the bottom of the Imperial Family, but now he is the third minister, and his political status is higher than those two princes, but he still can't be equal in the family personality.

Kira Yoshitoki patted him on the shoulder happily and said to him with a smile: "Yu has decided to succeed the family governor on the day Yoshimitsu returns to Yamagata Castle, and then Yu's envoy will rush to Kyoto to ask His Royal Highness for an imperial teaching book, and take the official position of Doctor Ukyo for you. In the future, the Dewa Diet will gradually get better.,As for Yoshihime's arrangement......"

Mogami Yoshimitsu hurriedly swore and said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, as long as I return to Yamagata Castle, I, Yoshimitsu, will run the marriage as soon as possible and marry Yoshihime into Kasuga Mountain Castle as soon as possible!" ”

In fact, both Kira Yoshitoki and Mogami Yoshimitsu know very well that these are just superficial efforts, as early as the request for marriage in Langoka Hokubo, Mogami Yoshimitsu knew that he had no way out, and Namooka Yoshimitsu also calculated that Mogami Yoshimitsu would not agree to break the contract and break the alliance to break this satisfactory in-law, so he had to use his sister as a substitute.

The attitude of the Kira family is so clear that it is to win over Mogami Yoshimitsu, and where will the Mogami clan be allowed to recruit an adopted daughter from the Shu clan to marry, if he is really naïve to think that when he uses this method of not harming Date Hui Sect to satisfy Kira Yoshimitsu, it will really hurt the face of the Kira family, and Kira Yoshitoki does have an adopted daughter of Imagawa Yoshimoto, Iyi Naoto, but that was a long time ago after all.

At the time of the marriage contract between Kira Yoshitoki and Imagawa Yoshimoto, the newly-born Kamikawa Ashikaga clan was still a small daimyo lord struggling between the two Omi prefectures, and they were still a long way from the powerful daimyo and the stronger daimyo to face Miyoshi Chokei, the overlord of Kinai. At that time, Kira Yoshito's family personality may have been much higher than that of Imagawa Yoshimoto. But his political status was not on par with that of Tokaido overlord Imagawa Yoshimoto.

The adopted daughter of the Imagawa family, Ii Naotoka, made a marriage contract with Kira Yoshitoki early. It wasn't until he went down to Echigo to win the second Kawanakajima that he got married, and it was understandable that the genealogy of the Kira family was understandable at that time, after all, the marriage contract was set early and the prestige of the Suruga Imagawa clan in the world was so big, and it involved Mikawa Yoshira's mess and Kira Yoshiyasu's cousin Kira Yoshiyasu at the time, after all, it was more beneficial to combine.

In this case, Mogami Yoshimitsu only has to accept his sister's choice when she marries Kira Yoshishi, as for hurting Date Terumune's face or completely turning his face, there is no need to think much about it, although Date Terumune is a rare talent in the two countries, but it is still a cut short compared to the more dazzling Kira Yoshitoki. The Date clan and the Kira clan are not opponents in the same weight class, and perhaps turning their faces at this time is exactly what Kira Yoshitoki and the retainers of the spectrum are happy to see.

Mogami Yoshimitsu got a satisfactory answer and left happily, he can already determine the attitude of Kira Yoshitoki, he did not make a wrong bet on this gamble, loyalty needs to be exchanged for a reward, how much loyalty needs to be exchanged for how much reward, this is the old man for hundreds of years to pass down the idea of royal grace and dedication, at least he can sit firmly in the position of the governor of the Mogami clan, and Kira Yoshitoki also promised the Mogami clan to be led by the Andu, and allowed him to integrate Mogami Hachiyu and other sects to serve as the head of the flag of the country of Dewa.

The losses of the Kira Legion in this night attack can only be described as slight. There is a mental calculation and no intention, and it does not fall behind in terms of troops, and the large battalions of the Dewa National People's Army are separate and have no unified command at all. Let this war turn into a one-sided rout from the beginning, and the few national armies that tried to resist collapsed on all fronts in less than half an hour, and all that remained was to chase and kill, round up and clean up the mess.

In terms of the intensity of the battle, it is not at all high-grade, the only seriously damaged is the defenders in Opo Castle, three thousand defenders were seriously damaged in the forty or fifty days of cage battle, after all, Oura Castle is just an ordinary flat castle, Mo said that the fortress structure of Kasuga Mountain Castle is the fortress structure of Kasuga Mountain Castle carefully constructed by Takeda Shingen, and a corner of Kaizu Castle that has blocked Takeda's army several times cannot be compared.

More than half of the 3,000 defenders were killed or wounded, and many of them died of wound infections due to lack of medical treatment, but fortunately, the siege level of the Izuwa National People's Army was really poor enough, neither the fierce fire of Hojo Shiyasu for Miyoshi Castle, nor the wisdom of Sanada Yutaka to attack Kaizu Castle, and the siege battle that stopped and stopped became a matter of business in the later stage, and Mogami Yoshimori also made up his mind to open the castle with all the food in the castle, so as not to cause more losses to the defenders in the castle.

Not long after the end of the night battle of Oura, the news of the defeat and retreat of the Konoji Jingdao army outside Kamezaki Castle also came at the same time, and the morale of the nationalist army belonging to the three counties of Senbei was not high and the training was insufficient, and it did not last long in the internal and external attacks of Shirakusadamichi and Watanabe Takatsuna, and the forces of the Dewa Kuniren army in the northern part of the Shonai Plains were quickly emptied.

Onodera Jingdao's subordinate general,Salmon Noriden Zenzen Masadatsuna, who served as the lord of Salmon Castle, personally covered the retreat of the national army.,But in the process of retreating, he was surrounded by Shiraku Sadatsu and captured as a prisoner.,The grandfather of this salmon Nobu Sadatsuna is the Jiang Sasaki Catie clan.,Later, he went to the most upside gun of Dewa Province to be a native lord.,Three generations before and after are less than fifty years of Chenguang.。

As the general of Onodera Jingdao's strong support, he sent Salmon Ensadaduna to the northernmost Mamuro Township in Mogami County more than ten years ago to build Salmon Castle, and then he has been responsible for protecting the three counties of Senbei and is also responsible for participating in the chaos of confrontation with the Mogami clan and the Shimizu clan, the Daihoji clan and the Tosaharin clan, the Apo clan, and the Tozenji clan.

The capture of this key figure was very heavy for the Senhoku Onodera clan, which meant that Onodera Keido's hard-fought layout in the northernmost part of Mogami County was broken, and instead exposed the hinterland of Katsuo County to the sight of the Kira army, which made them vulnerable to armed retaliation by the Kira army at any time.

Kira Yoshitoki did not give Onodera Jingdao more chances, the Mamuro Township in the north of the Shimizu Domain happens to be an important barrier to protect Mogami County, even if he does not further pursue the ownership of the three counties of Xianbei, but he can't let Onodera Jingdao escape the responsibility of the accomplice so easily, Salmon Ensanade unexpectedly surrendered and was pardoned by Kira Yoshitoki, and the Salmon Enjo of Mamuro Township was given a security guarantee, just to ask him to turn around and target his old lord Onodera Keido and the three counties of Xianbei.

The trick played by Yoshizen of Dahoji Temple was finally discovered, and the general who had been in the village for many years knelt in the city of Opo and wept bitterly and begged for forgiveness, bluntly saying that he was confused and listened to the proposals of evil thieves such as Sakoshi and Laijixiu. In the end, he went around himself and almost died with Opo Castle.

Kira didn't blame him too much. Instead, he said softly: "How can a person who is not a sage be without a sage?" There are times when people make mistakes. The mistake of the Dabao Temple this time was slightly bigger...... But if you make mistakes, you will always be punished, and if you have no faith, you will not stand up, let alone a dignified shogunate that rules over millions of people. , let General Yu almost lose his life Huangquan and lose most of the 1,000 elites, you have to find a source, right? ”

"That's right! The source of this is the two thieves of the Sawagoe clan and the Laiji clan! Dahoji Yoshizen wiped the cold sweat off his face with his sleeve, he never expected the battle situation to change rapidly, Mogami Yoshimori actually proposed to form an anti-Echigo alliance in order to deal with the Kira family, and pulled up nearly 20,000 troops to kill Tagawa County at once.

Seeing that the momentum is unstoppable, Dabao Temple Yizeng can only make a plan to exchange for a decent exoneration, so I vomited out the clear water. Retreating to Oura Castle and holding on for so long and then surrendering can always be exchanged for the security of the Dewa National People's Army, but I don't want the situation to change suddenly in this night, and the night attack of the Kira Army will collapse the Izuwa National People's Army, which is at its peak.

He never imagined that the Kira army would come so quickly, and only sent the information for help in mid-March, and in only a month, he took more than 10,000 tigers to attack Tagawa County, or landed on the battlefield from the humble Kamo Port in a way he had never imagined, combined with the Battle of Kamezaki Castle that ended at the same time.

From this, it can be seen that the marching route of the Kira Navy is around Tagawa County and Satsukai County before turning back, and so many people in the Dewa Country who boast of their superior wisdom and resourcefulness are unexpectedly expected that the Kira Navy has quietly controlled the entire open sea of the Dewa Country in their hands, and the powerful Navy has brought the mobility into full play. It is possible to wage joint battles at the same time against areas tens of kilometers apart, which is not something that the indigenous people of Dewa Province can do.

Daihoji Yoshizen is well aware of Kira Yoshitoki's attitude. But he still has to push the responsibility on the two dead people as much as possible, he will not be stupid enough to tell the truth to Kira Yoshi, telling him that this is the conspiracy of the governor of Dabaoji Yoshizen and the retainers of the spectrum, but the Sawakoshi clan Wei and the Laiji clan Xiu feel that this is not enough, and they want to dedicate the city to invite merit and reward, and finally they are abandoned by the Dabaoji Yoshizen and the genealogy retainers, if you really say so, you will definitely face heavy penalties.

Kira Yoshitoki didn't intend to investigate the guilt, but he couldn't help but give the corresponding punishment, so he said with a straight face: "Yu can accept the words of the Yizeng Palace, then the Sakoshi clan Wei and the Laiji clan are still thinking about Liche in Opu City, and with this thought, they are indeed a heinous criminal, so let's punish the territory of the Satsushi clan and the Laiji clan in Mankai County with a change of confiscation!" So as the main participant in this matter, the lord of the Sawagoe clan and the Laiji clan show, the Yizengdian can't avoid the blame, right? ”

“…… Be! Dabao Temple Yizeng had a bitter face, listening to what he said was more reluctant, and he also knew that he still couldn't escape this experience.

After a pause, Kira Yoshitoki said: "The territory of the Yizeng Hall is still in the Qingshui Domain, just give up the territory of Yuguro Mountain and the southwest of Tagawa County, it is inevitable that the territory will be reduced a lot, but if the Yizeng Hall can make more achievements in the next war, Yu will naturally not be stingy with these rewards." ”

Kira Yoshitoki did not hesitate to seize the remaining territory near Haguro, and completely turned the Shonai Daihoji clan into a national of Mogami Prefecture, and his power was greatly reduced to the level of Shimizu Yoshitaka, and the stone height was reduced by more than half compared to the original, and the loss of Haguro, an important dojo for the cultivation of the Dao, was no less significant to Daihoji Yoshizen than the loss of Sakata Port, and it was no wonder that his expression was like a mourning for such a heavy punishment.

Dabao Temple Yizeng had long expected this, but when he heard the news, he couldn't help but kneel down and beg bitterly: "Lord Mingjian, my Yizeng's loyalty to you has never changed!" Please also open the Internet side ......"

"Huh! Why should the Dabao Temple be like this, the Lord's mercy has opened up the Dabao Temple, and it will not be benevolent and graceful if it continues to be forgiven! "Ben is reminding him to pay attention to the bad debts in his ass, and he can make the Kira family lose in a mess, even if he is good enough, what do you want if he doesn't pursue further accountability?

Langgang Rongfang followed and persuaded him: "Actually, there is no need to worry about the Dabao Temple, the Lord has already spoken in advance, and in the future war, it is still necessary to rely on the cooperation of the Dabao Temple, so the Dabao Temple Hall does not have to be discouraged, as long as you actively make meritorious contributions, you will always be able to obtain the seal of knowledge and action." ”

It's good to say that he finally calmed him down, if it weren't for the cooperation of the local lord when Kira Yoshi, there was no need to waste time on him as a national lord, the samurai in the eastern country were more traditional and conservative, and Kira Yoshishi didn't plan to fight shirtless and fight with so many people from Dewa Country, so he still had to train a few capable retainers to work for himself.

Dispose of the things at hand, Kira Yoshitoki went to visit the wounded Watanabe Takatsuna, fortunately, only a few arrow wounds were not life-threatening, because the treatment during the retreat was not timely may leave some dark wounds, only quiet recuperation and recovery to see if the dark wounds can be cured, Kira Yoshitoki sent a boat to escort Watanabe Takatsuna back to Echigo to recuperate, General Naito Masari led the 3,000 remnants of the army as the general of the reserve, and Watanabe Moritsuna will replace his father as the deputy general of the reserve.

Takigawa Tokiyoshi, Shiraku Sadatsu and Nagasaka Nobumasa were rewarded for their good performance, and they were rewarded with one, second, and third merits, and the army ordered the army to pull out of the formation of Yamagata Castle on the first day of rest, and Kira Akabi, who served as the vanguard force, pounced on the Shimizu Domain early, and the next target was the remnants of the countrymen in Mogami County, Tendo Yorisada and Enzawa Manshige, these two fish that escaped from the net and fled back to their hometowns were just a dish, and the loss of many countrymen's wings was just a dish on the table.
