Chapter 670: Ouchi's Countermeasure II

Ouchi's countermeasure two

Yoshitaka Ouchi did not have such a determination as Yoshiko Ouchi.

Ouchi Yoshiko came out at the age of sixteen, and he joined forces with some of Japan's top people in Kyoto, what kind of people have never been seen. Yoshitaka Ouchi, on the other hand, grew up under this strong father.

Seems like a spell.

The heir of a strong king is weak after all.

Yoshitaka Ouchi is such a person.

He is more like a minister than a martial artist than his father's ruthless determination.

How could he see his father die while he served his enemies with peace of mind?

"Father?" Yoshitaka Ouchi said. "What are you going to do?"

Ouchi Yoshiko said, "Ashikaga Yoshiharu revealed to me the agreement between the Hosokawa family and King Yong."

"Ashikaga Yoshiharu, it's actually Ashikaga Yoshiharu?" Yoshitaka Ouchi said.

It is not surprising that Yoshitaka Ouchi is not surprised, the relationship between Ashikaga Yoshiharu and the Ouchi clan is not good at all, and it can even be said that they are natural opposites.

The Ouchi clan and the Hosokawa clan together put Ashikaga Yoshinoki on the position of general, but Ouchi Yoshikoku and Hosokawa Takakuni turned against each other, and then Hosokawa Takakuni cooperated with Ashikaga Yoshinoki to drive Ouchi Yoshiyuki out of Kyoto.

But the good times didn't last long, after Ouchi Yoshikoku was driven away, Hosokawa Takakuni showed that he was more domineering than Ouchi Yoshiko, and Ashikaga Yoshinoki couldn't bear it, so he fled to Kyoto and came to the Ouchi clan to defect to the Ouchi clan by taking advantage of the emperor's enthronement ceremony.

At this moment, it is placed in Yamaguchi Castle. It can be said that Ouchi is the biggest supporter of Ashikaga Yoshisuke.

And Ashikaga Yoshiharu is a substitute for Hosokawa Takakuni after Ashikaga Yoshiki's escape.

Although Ashikaga Yoshiki and Ashikaga Yoshiharu are both surnamed Ashikaga. But it doesn't mean that the relationship between the two is good, on the contrary, there is an enmity between the two.

Ashikaga Yoshiharu's father, Ashikaga Yoshisumi, was forced away by Ashikaga Yoshiki and died depressed. For the sake of the general's position, the two veins have long been as deep as the sea.

No matter what angle you look at, Ashikaga Yoshiharu should not show goodwill with Ashikaga Yoshiki's biggest supporter.

"An ally of the present is not necessarily an ally of the future, and the enemy of the present is not necessarily the enemy of the future." Ouchi Yoshixing said: "Faith and righteousness are taboo for people. Don't you understand? ”

Yoshitaka Ouchi said, "The child knows."

Ouchi Yoshiyuki sighed. He knew his son too well. This son of his, is a gentleman and a good man, but as a good man, he cannot bear the inheritance of the Ouchi clan.

But he didn't have time to teach him.

Yoshitaka Ouchi skipped the topic of the Ashikaga family and said directly: "In the agreement between the Hosokawa family and Dongyong, King Yong has a place that must be obtained, which is Nagasaki. I will take all those restless families to Kyushu, and you will take the rest of the people to sit in Yamaguchi Castle. If you wait for the enemy to attack. Just delay as much time as possible, and if it doesn't work, hold Yamaguchi Castle. ”

Yamaguchi Castle is the base camp of the Ouchi clan and has been operated by the Ouchi clan for several generations, and is known as the location of Western Kyoto. Yamaguchi Castle's fortifications are second only to Kyoto in Japan.

"Father, since you are invincible, can't you admit defeat?" Yoshitaka Ouchi said, "The Ouchi family can't live without a father."

"Child----" Ouchi Yoshixing said, "You must understand that the Ouchi clan should be valued, not because of me alone, but because of the courage of the Ouchi clan's soldiers." If you want to be respected by King Yong, you must let His Royal Highness King Yongwang value my Ouchi clan. How can a wall grass be valued. ”

"You have to give the Yongjun a strong blow so that they can respect the Ouchi clan. And the Ouchi clan lost too much to survive in Japan at all. Therefore, those unpredictable families must be consumed, and without my suspension, they will definitely not be able to hold on. ”

This is something that Yoshiyuki Ouchi has thought about many times.

It's the only way to go.

Due to the Japanese daimyo system, the subordinates of the Ouchi clan are also composed of all kinds of small daimyos, and the Ouchi clan's control over him cannot penetrate deep into the grassroots at all.

There are some people, Ouchi Yoshiko understands very well, as soon as the Ouchi clan declines, they will immediately rebel.

And in the future battle, I don't say how he will win or lose, but one thing has been determined. That is, the decline of the Ouchi clan is inevitable, even if the Ouchi clan can defeat Dongyong, it will be the same.

All he can do now is try to eliminate the hidden danger for Ouchi.

Ouchi Yoshiko arranged for him to leave Yamaguchi Castle with tens of thousands of troops under Yamaguchi Castle, cross the sea, and come to Kyushu. The first thing he did when he came to Kyushu was to write a letter to all the princes of Kyushu.

The content of this letter is very simple, it is to explain that King Yong wants to invade Japan, and the Ouchi clan wants to fight against the righteousness of the Ming Kou. Although it is not written with the intention of reconciliation. But in essence, it is a letter of reconciliation.

The grievances between the Ouchi clan and the princes of Kyushu have been going on for a long time.

The Ouchi clan and several generations ago, they have been fighting in Kyushu for a long time, and even the head of the Ouchi clan has died in Kyushu. All of them have acquired large swaths of land in Kitakyushu.

Of course, some people rise, and some people weaken.

The Ouchi clan benefited from Kyushu, and these traditional Kyushu princes were weakened by the Ouchi clan, and the two sides can be described as feuds.

The Ouchi clan's army went south, and the first to react was not Dongyong, but them.

Soon there was a reply.

There are all kinds of replies, some are just simple greetings, and some are wishing Ouchi Yixing and prosperity in martial arts. Although it is not directly explained, the hint that Ouchi Yoshixing understood after that was when Ouchi Yoshixing resisted the Yongjun. They won't do anything.

Of course, Ouchi Yoshiko is not a fool either.

He knew, of course, that it was only before he didn't fail. He thought that these princes in Kyushu had long been ready to fall into the ground, and once Ouchi Yoshixing's main force was defeated, the Ouchi clan's territory in Kyushu would definitely be swallowed up. However, it is said in a different way, such as this aid.

However, Ouchi Yoshiko was already prepared in his heart.

The Ouchi clan's territory in Kyushu had long been within the scope of his abandonment. In the dead of night, he just wanted to keep the Ouchi clan's territories on the island of Honshu. After all, the Yongjun Sailor is powerful, and Ouchi Yoshixing himself knows it. Once the Yongjun made a move and took control of the territory of the Ouchi clan, it would be divided into two parts, one part of Kyushu and one part of Honshu.

It is natural to give up.

At this time, Ouchi Yoshiyuki shook his head and shook off all the messy thoughts in his brain. As an old and spicy general, he will have a lot of plans before the war, but when the real fight starts, he doesn't think much about it. Because of the way of information transmission in this era, it is impossible to remotely control the overall situation.

Before the war, there was room for control, but after all the arrangements were arranged. There is little room for further changes. Even he himself is a pawn of his own plans.

All he has to do now is to see himself as Nagasaki. Don't think about the rest, it's useless to think about it.

Now is not the time for Nagasaki to be glorious.

Nagasaki's glory came a few decades later, when the Portuguese arrived in Nagasaki and used Nagasaki as a center of Portuguese trade, and later the Edo shogunate made Nagasaki the only foreign port in Japan.

But now Nagasaki is an important port for trade between the Ouchi clan and North Korea and the Ming Dynasty, although it is not as good as Nagasaki in the glory period, but it also has some heritage.

However, Nagasaki Castle is not as good as Yamaguchi Castle, but it is a simple castle. In addition, the coastline around Nagasaki Castle is tortuous and complex, which is conducive to the use of naval divisions. It's not a place where you can stick to it.

After Yoshiko Ouchi inspected Nagasaki Castle, he immediately ordered the requisition of people to expand Nagasaki Castle. He knew very well the power of the artillery of the Yongjun Naval Division, and the only thing he could rely on was this city.

Even if it's a bad city.

"I'm probably going to die here." Ouchi Yoshihei stroked the mottled city wall, thinking silently, while a large number of Han people behind him were expelled from the city.

When Ouchi Yoshiko did not allow a big war, there were still Han Chinese in Nagasaki Castle, and of course Ouchi Yoshixing also left room for it. Otherwise, these people are not as simple as being expelled.

"I don't know what His Royal Highness King Yong is doing?" Ouchi Yoshihei looked to the west of the sea, wondering what His Royal Highness King Yong would do, whether he would attack Nagasaki as he thought, but attack Nagato with a false shot.

The so-called son has no regrets, but Ouchi Yoshixing is worried.
