Chapter 195: Despair
The Zhixing that the Iga people received actually came from the territory they had sacrificed, so it seemed that the silver changed hands and was insignificant.
Not really.
The difference lies in the difference between the territory and the Nomura.
The land of the people of the country is a wild village developed by themselves, and it is not included in the guardian system. There is only the obligation of military service, but there are few rights within the system.
And Yoshiin gave it to the leader of the country, Zhixing, and there was a form of security, and it was a regular samurai recognized by the shogunate.
Regardless of status, or family heirlooms, they are all recognized and protected in the samurai society.
Although other martial artists can snatch land by force, with the security situation, she will always be illegally occupied.
One day, the forces will disappear and the other will grow, and it is impossible to say what will happen.
It's not that it's not impossible, the problem is that there is no sense of security.
Ashikaga Shogun's military power will decline, and who dares to guarantee that he will always be strong.
The good thing about the system is the sense of security.
As long as everyone follows the rules and does things, even if they encounter injustice, at least there is a bottom line, which is better than the law of the jungle.
The foundation of social bondage is stability, and it is to give the people who live in it a sense of security.
That's why the Iga people are excited, they have finally changed from savages to regular samurai, and they can be honest and upright from now on.
This is also the greatest wealth of Spo Yiyin's life, and his background is too good.
Although the Sibo family is in decline, the family lineage is the top existence in the guardian system. Now only Spo Yiyin is left.
I am the Spoo family.
Sometimes it's pressure, sometimes it's strength, and it's just a matter of how you do it.
Yiyin raised his hand to signal, and the whole audience was silent. He said to Niko Katsuhisa.
"Make a list of the nuns and martial artists you have thought of and go north with us, and let the envoy pass the order.
Tsutsui Shunqing didn't bother with it, just hung her and saw how she dared. ”
He turned back and spoke to the samurai.
"Clean up the battlefield and gather troops. If you meet someone you don't know, let these nuns and martial artists taste our power. ”
"Hey!"
Niko Katsuhisa added.
"In front of the Emperor, the situation of the shogunate army is unfavorable, and I am afraid that the army will be unstable."
Yoshiyin thought about it, and the composition of the shogunate army was more miscellaneous than his Spo coalition army.
The general's horses, the shogun's army, the Rokkaku family's army, the Asai family's army, and the finished Kawachi Hatakeyama family's army.
Now that the war situation is unfavorable, there will inevitably be a turbulent tide in the army. Could it be that the shogunate collapsed before I arrived?
Yiyin frowned.
"What should I do?"
Niko Katsuhisa said.
"I would like to write a military intelligence report for the Shogunate on behalf of the Imperial Commander. Boast of the bravery of the imperial front, show the strength of our army, and encourage the general to fight with the warriors. ”
Yiyin nodded.
"Yes."
Hanoi borders Son City.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru had been retreating to this place for a few days, building a defensive line along the plain between the Yodogawa River and the Ikoma mountain range, and deploying his army.
Miyoshi Nagakei is also worried that guarding the key points of the Ikoma Mountain Range, and Naomasa Yasumi of Iimori Mountain Castle is unreliable.
Abandoned the southern route to take the Ikoma Mountains, chose to return to Settsu, and walked along the north bank of the Yodo River, facing off against Ashikaga Yoshiteru across the bank.
Before Ashikaga Yoshiteru could catch his breath, another piece of bad news came.
"What! Hatano has fallen? Miyoshi Yoshi-hyun leveled Tamba? ”
Ashikaga Yoshiteru couldn't believe it. Tanba Mountain, Hatano family and Fortified Castle Eight Castles.
The military strength in the hands of Miyoshi Yoshiken is less than 10% of the total military strength of the Miyoshi family, and the Hatano family will not lose if they do nothing.
The problem is that Hatano has done too much.
Hatano Uetsu is the head of the Hatano family and built Yagami Castle, but her daughter Hatano Harumi is a mediocre and arrogant governor.
Yagami Castle is close to the western part of Tamba, and Miyoshi Yoshiken ignores the Hatano family and heads east, making a gesture of directly entering Yamashiro Province.
Hatano Harumi has repeatedly seized Miyoshi Yoshiken's logistics materials behind him, and he has gained a lot.
After a long time, I was more greedy, and finally fell into the trap.
Of course, Miyoshi Yoshiken could not ignore the threat behind him and go directly to Beijing, every time the military was transported, she left the peasant soldiers behind and went back with the elite in the army to paralyze the eyes of the Hatano family.
After several times, when Hatano Harumi snatched the logistics supplies, the ambush soldiers rose up and captured her alive.
The Hatano family lost their governor, and their family was unstable, so they had to compromise and submit. As a result, the country of Tanba was defeated by the Miyoshi family???
Ashikaga Yoshiteru was angry, and even more frightened.
Once Miyoshi Yoshiken coordinates the affairs of the Hatano family, he marches again.
Behind the shogunate, there was a blank space. Miyoshi Yoshiken, who went south from Tamba in the north, was either cutting off Ashikaga Yoshiteru's supply lines or flanking the shogunate army.
This battle can't be fought.
Even when the news came, it was already about to fall apart.
The shogunate was discussing in the army, and Ashikaga Yoshiki was silent, and there was a quarrel below.
Under the blow of bad news again and again, the compromise rhetoric of the Ise Sadakyo faction among the shogunates once again prevailed.
Except for a few shoguns and ministers, who suffered losses with Ashikaga Yoshiteru, the other shogunate samurai were unwilling to continue fighting this inevitable war.
The Izumi Hosokawa family was trapped in Kishiwada Castle, and the retainers of the Hatakeyama family in Kawachi rebelled, and now the Tanba country has reversed.
Half of the allied comrades-in-arms of the Shogunate Army collapsed, how can this be fought?
Miyoshi Chokei didn't want to destroy the Ashikaga shogunate, all he wanted was to manage the generation, the real power of the shogunate system.
Since you can't beat it, it's better to find another opportunity for the time being, why bother to break the net.
Where there is life, there is hope.
The shogunate was in a mess of its own, and the attitude of the guest army was even more ambiguous.
The Asai family and the Rokkaku family have just gone through a vicious battle, and both sides are defeated.
This time, they did not dare to send troops with all their strength, and they all left most of the army to defend themselves at home.
At the time of the shogunate's deliberations.
Asai Nagamasa, who was sitting under the hall, left Akao Kiyotsuna to guard Kita-Omi and brought Isono Yuanmasa to join the battle.
Rokkaku Yoshiji, who was sitting on the other side, had just succeeded to the throne, and although his mother Rokkaku Yoshiken was forced to abdicate, he still held the real power of the Rokkaku family hidden behind the scenes.
His mother sat at home, wary of the already unstable Goto Kento, and the important minister Gamo Kenhide accompanied Rokkaku Yoshiji to the shogunate army.
With hatred in his eyes, Isono looked at Kamo Kenhide.
Her friend Hyakubakusuke was killed by the iron cannons commanded by Gamo Kenhide during the Battle of Norada.
Most of the retainers of Asai and Rokkaku who were present had enmity, and there were no retainers near and far away.
The samurai family of the north and south Omi fought a hundred years of war, and where the grievances and grievances can be clearly stated in a few words.
Being able to barely sit together and fight for the general is already the limit.
Now that the shogunate is in turmoil, they are watching from the sidelines, ready to withdraw at any time.
After Miyoshi Nagakei finished fighting Ashikaga Yoshiki, he had already spent several years of accumulated materials, and he was unable to conquer Omi again.
What they lost was nothing more than the goodwill of the defeated and weakened Ashikaga family. Compared to the damage to their own strength, it is insignificant.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru looked at all parties coldly, his heart was full of desolation, and the Ashikaga family was so weak in her hands.
She twice pointed out that Miyoshi Nagakei, who was the enemy of the samurai, was about to become the ruler of the shogunate, and there was a real unknown general.
Ise Sadakyo had already gained the upper hand in the controversy, the Asai family and the Rokkaku family had retreated, and the collapse of the shogunate army was imminent.
Perhaps, the next news came, the news that the army of Miyoshi Yixian was heading south.
She, the thirteenth Ashikaga shogun Yoshiteru, will be reduced to a puppet.
Just as he was thinking about it, he walked quickly into an envoy outside the shogunate, knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
The atmosphere of the audience suddenly tensed to the extreme, and perhaps the collapse of the shogunate army was at this moment.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru pretended to be calm and asked.
"Something happened again."
He kowtowed back.
"Yamato Kuaima transmitted, the sister-in-law of the Sibo Sect family, Yiyin, won two battles and two victories, slashed three good Yixing, and ten rivers survived."
Ashikaga Yoshiki stood up violently, dizzy and dreamy.
