Chapter 383 Surrender
After reading it, Nobunaga shook his head with a little disappointment and said.
"It's too cumbersome to give Ashigaru a hair, and to take care of their family affairs.
What is the use of the ashigaru who died in battle, why bother whether their families live or die.
If you want me to say it, ignore it.
In addition, a new military rank was set up, called Ashigaru Head.
It is only right to delegate the Ji samurai as the head of the ashigaru, one head for ten, and allow the ashigaru to be promoted to the head of the ashigaru with military merits. ”
Oda Nobunaga's words made Maeda Toshiya look sideways.
Spo Yoshiyin gave Ashigaru Fa Lu enough to shake the samurai group, but he didn't expect Nobunaga to be more ruthless, so he simply tore open the military promotion channel.
Ashigaru is a squad of ten people, and it is equipped with one or two Ji samurai to command.
Fixing this position for both Ashigaru and Ashigaru would blur the boundaries between Ashigaru and grassroots Hime Samurai, confusing the distinction between the two classes.
Oda Nobunaga was bold, and the idea was too radical.
As a result of the samurai of Ashigaru, the interests of the low-level Ji samurai will be seriously violated, but the military power of the lord will be even stronger.
Ji Samurai is skilled in martial arts, but the organized three or five people of Ashigaru are not weak, just because there is no hope to live in chaos, and there is no intention or way to advance.
As long as Ashigaru has a job and a motivated position, he will explode with great power.
Japan has 66 countries, 20 million stones, and 10 million people. The samurai were only a few hundred thousand, and the number was far inferior to that of the commoners.
If Oda Nobunaga really became an ashigaru samurai in the midst of the standing army that was out of production, then the Oda family's military strength would quickly become stronger.
Owari is rich and comfortable, and the combat power of the Ji samurai regiment is not famous among the sixty-six countries.
But Owari is a big grain producer, and there is enough grain for Oda Nobunaga to toss, and if he takes the entire Nobi Plain, he will have an advantage.
Nobunaga's heart was calculating the pros and cons of Spo's ashigaru law, and she was extremely excited, as if she saw a way to strengthen the army.
And Maeda Toshiya watched coldly, but he was not optimistic.
Nobunaga's actions would offend the samurai class as a whole, especially the shogunate and the daimyo who maintained the guardian system.
Even if she can use the large profits from her expansion to buy off the samurai family under her command, there is no end to expansion, but there is no end to greed.
Once the limits of expansion are reached, how are the benefits distributed?
The samurai group, which has been severely corroded by privileges and endured to the limit, will inevitably explode, and internal conflicts will blow her to pieces and bury the great cause of the Oda family.
She shook her head, what did she do.
Maeda Toshiya never thought of betraying Yoshigin-kun, and the surrender that Oda Nobunaga saw was just her plan to hide from the world.
With the rise of the Spo family in recent years, maintaining the existence of the Owari Spo collar became a political investment for Oda Nobunaga.
At the beginning, Maeda Toshiya did not accept Oda Nobunaga's wooing because Owari Spo had insufficient foundation, and she needed to sit in it.
Now that the territory is stable, if you want to develop, you must have the support of Oda Nobunaga.
After Maeda Toshihisa leaves, the Maeda Toshiya leads Owari Spo to cover the sky and gain her allegiance, and Oda Nobunaga will have a pawn to break into the Spo family.
He can also use the power of the Owari Spo to balance the growing retainers of the Oda family.
This is profitable for Oda Nobunaga, and she will definitely accept it, but the question is, how to win her trust.
In order to be reactivated by Oda Nobunaga, Maeda Toshiie must find something to gain her trust.
And it will not really infringe on the interests of Spo Yiyin, and hate it for betrayal.
Spo's light law was the right thing she had in mind.
Oda Nobunaga didn't know that Spo Ashigaru Fado was actually just a kind thought of Yoshigin, a momentary mercy for Ashigaru.
At the beginning, Yiyin wanted to give Ashigaru Fa Lu, but it was a full five stones a year!
Now only two stones remain, because he was not involved in the making of the testimonies.
The specific law was established by Maeda's interests, and the two sisters Maeda Toshihisa and Maeda Toshiya perfected it, so that there are the current rules.
Leaking this law to Oda Nobunaga, Spo Yoshiin was not angry, it was just a thought he had at the time.
Judging from the domination of the Shospo Domain, the Shoba Yoshiin is still following the traditional path of protecting the daimyo and has not enabled the ashigaru samurai.
Maeda Toshiie is sure that her Yoshigin-kun doesn't care about this ashigaru law.
And this law is deviant, but it can arouse the great interest of Oda Nobunaga.
Spo's Ashigaru law is heavy on family members and pensions, and Oda Nobunaga's idea of emphasizing encouragement and combat power is completely at odds with each other.
Maeda Toshiie is confident that even if this matter is leaked, the Retainers of the Spo family may be dissatisfied with her approach.
That's also because this law seriously infringes on the interests of traditional samurai, and the princesses under the guardian daimyo will naturally be disgusted.
As for Spo Yoshiyin itself, this small offense is not worth mentioning in the face of the huge interests of expanding the Owari Spo domain.
He had never seen the law himself, and there was nothing to be particularly angry about.
The key to everything is whether she can sell this Spo Ashigaru law and become a big Owari Spo leader and improve the status of her Maeda Toshiya in the Spo family.
All power comes from strength, and only with strength can she persuade her warriors to support her adventure, compete for the Spo family's wealth, and obtain greater benefits.
Now it seems that she has won the trust of Oda Nobunaga and successfully taken the first step.
This self-righteous highness will give her a little chance as a reward for betraying the lord, which is also her usual bad taste.
Punch a nail into the Spo family and cultivate a force independent of the retainers.
For Oda Nobunaga, it is worth giving some opportunity for Maeda Toshiya to go to the public favor.
In the final analysis, even if she is to be a dog, she has to bring her own dry food and use the power of the Spo family to serve the Oda family.
If the Maeda Toshiya has made outstanding achievements and obtained a large number of territories, it will only be in the name of the Spo family.
Once her betrayal is revealed, and in the face of the anger of Spo Yoshigin, the Maeda Toshiya can only stay in the Oda family and accept asylum.
Will she hand over the Owari Spa collar she has built with her own hands, obediently listen to the fate of Spo Yoshigin, and lose everything she has worked so hard to serve?
Is she willing, the retainers who followed her to conquer the great territory?
The samurai family values profit over righteousness, there is not enough reason, even if the Maeda Toshiya is stupid, the samurai family under her command will force her to calm down.
Of course, the premise is that Maeda Toshiya is indeed talented.
If she is unlucky, or has insufficient military strategy, and is defeated and killed, then nothing can be talked about.
Oda Nobunaga looked at Maeda Toshiya, and the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became.
Maeda Toshiya bowed his head and became more and more humble and obedient.
The two have different thoughts, but the scene is very harmonious.
For a long time, Oda Nobunaga said.
"Inuchiyo, you're good, don't let me down, I'll give you a chance.
As I said, do things for me, and the future of the million-stone daimyo is promising, and this promise is still valid today. ”
Maeda Toshiya bowed to the ground and was silent.
Oda Nobunaga thought that she was guilty of her betrayal of Spo Yoshigin, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She likes to force others to obey her, and the thrill of this conquest is so cool that it is suffocating, and it is more refreshing than popping.
Maeda Toshiya lowered her head, and in the hidden corners she couldn't see, there was a power in her eyes.
If you do this, you can only stick to the end and move forward with the goal of getting rich.
Either she will become an important force that cannot be ignored by the Spo family, or she will die on the battlefield, and she will never allow herself to live in mediocrity.
Yiyinjun, please give me strength, and may my martial arts prosper.
"Inuchiyo, the military service of the territory is sent to Inuyama Castle, you go to Shibata Katsuya to discuss the formation of the Oda Spo coalition army."
"Hey!"
The existence of the Owari Spo domain as a foreign feudal domain was very peculiar, economically it was subordinate to the Oda family domain and had to pay military service, but politically it was subordinate to the Spo family and independent of the Oda family.
Oda Nobunaga assigned her to Shibata Katsuya and included her in the Higashimino Raiders Army.
Maeda Toshiie knew in his heart that no matter how sincere she showed to surrender, Oda Nobunaga would not let her participate in the Semino Raiders.
It was too close to the Shospo domain, and the Maeda Toshiya could gain military merit and reward the territory in the Oda family's expeditions, but only in Higashimino.
Oda Nobunaga is a madman, but she is a calm and rational megalomaniacal, she seems crazy, but in fact she is very rational and mercenary.
She never really believed in others, only herself.
