Bidding farewell to Chongfukuji Temple and Kuaikawa Shaoki, Kira Manmatsumaru's Mino journey ended, Kira Kamiroku army marched along Zhongshan Island, across the Nagara River and the Ihi River, and arrived smoothly at the Bukai Pass, Mino Province Bukai Pass and Ise Province's Suzuka Pass and Echizen Kuni'ai Pass are collectively called the Three Passes, and the Kanto and Kansai are divided by the three passes.

Crossing the Hinterland of without breaking the barrier, Omi Province, when you come here, the Kira family can blatantly raise the banner of Kamiraku, and in Mino, you must always be on guard against Saito Toshimasa, because the Saito family has just concluded an alliance with the Oda family, and Saito Guidie has become the main room of Oda Nobunaga, and the two sides are still in the most intimate period.

If the Saito family, which is an ally, chooses to block this Joraku team and hand them over to the Oda family, it will be really a catastrophic consequence to enter the Omi country, but it will be different, the Sasaki Rokkaku clan and the Oda family are not allies, and they are not on good terms with the Saito family in Mino, and they will not sell the face of the Oda family at all, not to mention that the Rokkaku family has more reason to welcome this Kamiluo army.

The current head of the Rokkaku family, Rokkaku Dingyori, and the current public Ashikaga Yoshito formed a black hat kin, and personally served as the shogun's aftermath, and as a strong supporter of the son-in-law of the management leader, Hosokawa Harumoto, as the shogunate leader, the original hefty Rokkaku Dingyori still wanted to make a big difference, but unfortunately encountered Miyoshi Chokei, a strong enemy.

In this summer's Eguchi Battle, Miyoshi Changkei, under the watchful eyes of Hosokawa and Rokkaku coalition forces, easily and happily eliminated the Miyoshi Masa who belonged to Hosokawa and entered the Taoist sect, and the Rokkaku family missed the best opportunity to defeat the Miyoshi family because of a moment of hesitation, and finally could only sit back and watch Miyoshi Nagakei's prestige rise, and he took advantage of the great victory to go up and set up the puppet Hosokawa clan as the leader, and he served as the leader himself.

The son-in-law was defeated and lost face, and the shogunate was robbed of the same face, and at the same time he was annoyed by his hesitation at the critical moment, Rokkaku was not lightly angry, and his originally quite strong body collapsed not long after, Rokkaku Yoshiken served as the guardian of the shogun as the successor to disintegrate his father's baton, and he would not let go of any opportunity to retaliate against the Miyoshi family, so the Rokkaku family would only raise their hands to welcome the Kamiro army of the Kira family.

Minami Omi is the head of the Sasa Rokkaku clan, and the corresponding North Omi was originally the head of the Kyogoku family, one of the four positions of the Rokkaku family, but with the outbreak of the Onin Rebellion, the Kyogoku family gradually declined, and the original retainer Asai began to raise his head, and was finally given the next gram by Asai Ryomasa.

The dispute between the Rokkaku clan and the Kyogoku clan Omi has continued until the Asai family, the actual controller of Kita-Omi, and the Asakura family ended up ally against the Rokkaku clan during the Asai Ryomasa period, but since Asai Ryomasa died of illness a few years ago, the current head Asai Hisasa's ability is insufficient, and it didn't last long to be suppressed by Rokkaku Dingyori, and the Asai family is currently subordinate to the Rokkaku family, and Omi Province has completed the unification on the surface.

After Sakata County, Inugami County, Kira Manmatsumu took Katsuhime and Aju to Tianning Temple and Taga Taisha respectively, he was quite relaxed and did not have the pressure of going to Luo, on the contrary, he was more like a tourist who traveled to the countryside, and his life was very comfortable, but his good mood did not last long.

When news of the outbreak of the Battle of Anjo in Mikawa Province reached, all the sub-castles around Ansho Castle had fallen, and in order to prevent the Imagawa army from blocking the way back to Owari, Oda Nobumitsu had to garrison Kariya Castle of the Mizuno family with his army, which was equivalent to declaring that his abandonment of Ansho Castle was a foregone conclusion.

The political changes in the Mikawa Kingdom were still like shadows, always haunting Kira Manmatsumaru's mind, which made him very unhappy, and the Kamiraku army soon accelerated through the two counties of Aichi and Kanzaki, and entered Gamo County, which had the most direct leadership of the Rokkaku family.

The reason why this city is famous is not only because it is the residence of the Rokkaku family, but also because the castle town of Kannonji Castle is the most prosperous commercial center in Minami-Omi, Kannonji Castle was built on the top of Mount Kiyama at a height of more than 400 meters, and like other mountain castles, the military significance is far greater than the commercial significance, but all this has changed in recent years, and in March this year, Rokkaku Dingrai in Minami-Omi, posted a notice in Ishitera New City, one of the castle towns of Kannonji Castle, to implement the paper as a product.

Although this news is not very conspicuous, and the impact is limited to a commercial product in some castle towns, but its impact is very far-reaching, the Imagawa family of Tokaido, and the future Oda family are actively doing the reform of the Rakushi and even the Rakuza, in fact, the Rakushi Rakuza is not complicated, that is, from the local tycoons, merchants, temples, public houses or other forces to seize control of the castle town, including the power of judicial proceedings in the castle town, set up prohibitions in commercial activities, and ban except for the tax items established by themselves, All other miscellaneous taxes and so on.

The general meaning is to establish complete control over the castle town, whether it is taxes, judicial judgments, or government decrees that I may issue at any time, and the power of the retainers to investigate and supervise is clearly established, so it can be seen that under the feudal system, the daimyo had very limited control over both land and economic and financial rights, and most of the government decrees were carried out around the seizure of land and financial control.

When passing through the castle town of Kannonji Temple, Kira Manmatsumaru also appreciated the prosperity of Ishiji New City, it seems that this Ishiji New City is not limited to the influence of the paper market, but a new pilot of the reform of the new town ordinance, Ishiji New City abolished most of the harsh taxes in the past, and the less taxes also made merchants more willing to come here to trade, even if only a few commercial taxes can make the Rokkaku family make a lot of money, the Rokkaku family has food and money, and has attracted a group of wealthy families to become a force around, and the strength is indeed not to be underestimated.

Without staying at the Rokkaku family for long, the Kamiraku team of the Kira family soon passed through the Kannonji temple and entered Omi Sakamoto on the west bank of Lake Biwa, where Sakamoto was located, Shiga County was assigned to the Ashikaga shogun's family by Rokkaku Joyori, as the royal refuge of the shogun's family, which was also a strategy for the Rokkaku family to win over the shogun, which could not only achieve the purpose of influencing and even controlling the shogun, but also not be too dazzling and offensive.

Yamaoka Zenjiro galloped to the hillside and shouted, "Listen, gentlemen! I'm about to succeed in going to Luo! This time, the owner of the pavilion is going to meet the Grand Imperial Palace and His Royal Highness in the Sakamoto Imperial Palace! We will also become the shogunate to serve the public! I, the Samurai of the Three Rivers, are about to take this opportunity to spread their martial arts! ”

Then someone shouted, "Be loyal to the owner!" Loyal to the shogunate! ”

"Loyal to the owner! Loyal to the shogunate! The team erupted in a tsunami like a tsunami, Takigawa Keijiro, who had been staying close to the crowd, shouted excitedly, and Honda Sanya, who grabbed him beside him, ran to the front of the team and shouted loudly, and the warm atmosphere quickly infected everyone, and even the family members who were hiding in the carriage quietly lifted the bamboo curtain to secretly look at the movement outside.

"Hmm, it looks like everyone is happy, how is Yahachiro's side?" Sitting in the wide carriage, Kira Manmatsumaru held a glittering gold coin in his hand and smiled softly.

This is a chess stone gold from Kai, famous for the shape of the gold coin like a chess stone, in addition to being used as a royal tribute, it is mostly used to reward meritorious officials, Kira Manmatsu Maru flicked lightly, and jumped this gold coin to a row of side near the crowd, which happened to fall into the arms of Hattori Koshiro, for the good luck of his brother, Hattori Kogoro can only be envious.

"Yahachiro is basically fine, children always recover quickly, but he seems to have a shadow on the owner!" Kansuke Yamamoto directly ignored the small movements of the crowd and looked like a good man with a cup of tea, but the ugly scars and one-eyer patches on his face were really terrifying, and no one dared to look at him.

"It's not necessarily bad." Kira Manmatsumu shook his head, jumped open the bamboo curtain and could see the carriage opposite, Katsuhime was hugged by Aju in the carriage and jumped and jumped excitedly, Kira Manmatsumaru waved at Katsuhime and Aju, but said in his mouth: "Tell Yahachiro that smart people should know what they should do, learn these and then consider showing their abilities!" ”

"Yes! The old minister will tell the hall owner so. Kansuke Yamamoto bowed, picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, his expression was indescribably peaceful.

"The master is really getting younger and younger!" Kira Manmatsumaru quipped.

"The old minister is considering adopting an adopted son, so as to inherit the mantle for the old minister, if he can build a Bodhi Temple for the old minister to worship incense, it would be great!"

“……”

It didn't take long for the folk songs that could only be heard in the countryside of Sanhe from the thousands of armies, although they were called absurd and out-of-board by these big men, but their enthusiasm did not change, and they simply sang the ballad about the love between men and women into a high-spirited hard-core song, which was actually a bit of a military taste.
