Chapter 188: Going Crazy

Fighting a war is logistics.

Shikawa Ichicun sent troops this time, bringing her elite in the Sanuki country who fought in the south and the north.

There are twelve reserves, seven hundred Ji warriors, and two thousand and a half ashigaru.

These people are not the Iga people, the Saga people, and the Yamato people under Yoshiyin, they are the standing elite of the regular samurai.

Ji Samurai is at least a battlefield elite with thirty positions, and Ashigaru is a battlefield veteran who has experienced many experiences.

On the Yiyin side, there are 600 Saga people who have returned to Kii, and 2,000 samurai, 2,800 ashigaru.

Although it seems that there are a lot more Ji samurai, they may not be able to beat others, and Ashigaru is not a grade.

The army is barely evenly matched, but Yiyin knows that he is still weak, so he must lead the Ten Rivers to take the initiative to attack.

It's easier to defend than to attack.

Ten rivers and one deposit of the whole army of 3,200 people, ten people in a month to consume two stone of grain, that is, six hundred and forty stone.

This is a daily ration, which is doubled by wartime practice. Otherwise, the strength is insufficient, and it is easy to die suddenly. That's 1,280 stone a month.

Grain and grass had to be transported by sea, by land, and across the mountains into the Nara Basin. Shipwrecks along the way, damp, moldy, falling, embezzlement, at least twice as much wear and tear.

It is three times as much grain to the front, which is twice the amount, that is, three thousand eight hundred and forty stones.

This is a large army to support the war abroad, a month's rations, not counting other armaments, horse materials and other materials.

That's it, or as a result of joining forces with the Kii people, the Kii peasant soldiers were mobilized. Otherwise, the food will be depleted at least five to ten times.

Sun Tzu's Art of War said that it is not a joke to eat the enemy for one hour and be me for twenty minutes.

The Sanuki National Stone is 120,000 stone high, and according to the daily grain tax practice of the four gongs and six people, it is not more than 48,000 stone of grain a year.

It is also necessary to bear the wear and tear of the lords at all levels, the self-retention of each family, and the duties of the Shiji samurai, and the grain and grass that can be saved in a year will not exceed 10%, that is, 4,800 stones.

Therefore, the accumulation of Sanuki Province in a year of thrift can only allow Shihe Yicun to go abroad for more than a month, which is still an ideal state without problems in logistics.

If it weren't for the Miyoshi family's control of the maritime trade in the Seto Inland Sea and the Sakai Port commercial tax, her family would not have been able to sustain this war.

The logistics line was long, and Yiyin judged that the military rations stored in the Ten Rivers One Deposit Army would not exceed ten days.

If there are too many of them, the fragile supply lines of feudal society will definitely not be able to be supplied.

So, as long as the Saga people return to Kii Province. Ten Rivers must defeat the Spoy coalition within three days, or she will collapse without a fight.

Not ten days, but three days. This is because it will take time for the army to withdraw to Kii and reach the Nerai sphere of influence.

If you don't eat, you die.

No disciplined army can withstand the ravages of hunger, unless they are given faith and ideals that are more important than life.

If she can't do it, then she has to make a desperate bet. And Spo Yiyin is ready to wait here, to defend and wait for the attack.

Shihe Ichicun waited for news from the north, waiting for Tsutsui Shunqing to have no choice but to fight, and as a result, he waited for Miyoshi Changqing's almost show-off battle report.

She pouted, disapproving.

The victory of Miyoshi Changqing is to fight in a daze and smash supplies.

This time, he was able to successfully force Ashikaga Yoshiki back to the border of Yamashiro, relying on his tacit cooperation with his third sister Anzhai Dongyasu.

It's also that Hatakeyama Takamasa is too unpopular and can't control his retainers, what's the matter with Sister Guan.

But the family governor wants to show off his exploits, and it would be good to be responsible for his sister and applaud.

I was still thinking about how to say a few nice words to make the eldest sister happy, and then attack Kyoto with a backhand to let her take a look.

The bad news of the slap in the face came.

In the middle of the shogunate, there were thirty heads neatly placed, and one was held in the arms of Shikawa Ichicun, not caring about the blood stains on it.

There were no tears in Shihe Yicun's eyes, but the increasingly red eyes made his subordinate Ji Warrior shudder.

"What the hell is going on in the North!"

looked at the warrior Ji who was in charge of military intelligence, and his murderous aura was exposed.

The man's body couldn't help but tremble, knelt down and kowtowed, and said.

"About ten days ago, the shogunate Spo Yoshigin, the son of the Spo clan, led the Iga people into Yamato.

He first expelled the Saga people who were ravaging the Nara Basin, and then met with the head of Kofukuji Temple.

Then in the north, the Saga Party Department was defeated, and Suzuki Shigehide was caught. Caught Miyoshi adults.。。 Surrender..

And then.. And then.. ”

Shihe Yicun was expressionless, and went up and kicked her over.

"Pull it down, and show it to the public. The Iga people entered Yamato for ten days! I didn't know for ten whole days! You're damned! ”

The man cried out and was pulled from side to side.

She is indeed wronged enough, what the Iga people do is intelligence trading, and the army of the Ten Rivers has no sense of prevention, but it is not that it is strictly concealed, and the head of the only daughter of the family governor comes.

Ten rivers are full of remorse in their hearts.

The Miyoshi family is the enemy of the samurai to the outside world, and its reputation is completely ruined. Internally, the only daughter died young, and if there is a dispute in the family for the heir, she is the sinner of the decay of the Miyoshi family.

What's more, the Dharma Master of Xingfu Temple issued a decree and pointed out that Sanyoshi Changqing was the enemy of the Buddha.

Something is wrong, something is wrong! Ten rivers and Ichicun sensed a sense of disobedience.

"Pull her back for me."

The Ji warrior who was pulled back had palpitations, and kowtowed and waited for Shihe Yicun to interrogate.

"The purpose of the Dharma Master of Kofukuji Temple is to make the world clear? Both? ”

"Back to Your Highness, it's all the same."

Ten Rivers Ichicun fell into deep thought and waved her aside.

She is not a person who kills indiscriminately, but her anger is hard to quench. The existence of Miyoshi Yixing is too important for the stability of Miyoshi Family.

The four sisters of Miyoshi each have their own territory and are united around the Miyoshi family. If this structure does not go wrong, it can last for two generations.

Because the families within the second generation are friendly, close and strong, and the blood is strong, after three generations, it will depend on the means of the main family and the family.

But the death of Miyoshi Yixing was in big trouble.

Miyoshi Changqing is not young, and it is difficult to have any more descendants. Moreover, people in this era do not live long, even if there are new descendants, they will be young when they succeed to the throne, will anyone have different hearts?

Originally, the intelligence and age of Miyoshi Yixing were enough to connect the past and the next, and it also allowed all families to serve the Miyoshi clan with peace of mind and unite together.

Now that she is dead, there will be trouble in her family. And her death was because she changed the strategy of Miyoshi Changqing and let her go to the north of Yamato alone, how can this be explained clearly.

The harmony in the family collapsed because of his own mistakes, how could he not let Shihe Yicun be anxious and thunderous.

She can't take care of these things for the time being, and the question now is what to do next.

Why did the Dharma Master of Kofukuji Temple make the decree clear? The second Buddha enemy is just that, and the first one has no reason.

Unless, Tsutsui Shunqing didn't listen to the greeting, so the Dharma Master had no choice but to make it clear, skip her and directly convey it to the lower-level nun martial arts family to know!

Ten rivers and one cunning suddenly burst into tears.

Niece, it's my fault. I misread Tsutsui Shunkei, I missaw Iga Zhong, I hurt you.

"Call in Shigehide Suzuki's messenger."

The messengers of the Sakaga came in and knelt on the ground, holding a letter from the silver of Spo to the Ten Rivers over the top of their hands.

Ten Rivers walked up behind her, drew his saber with lightning in his backhand, and plunged it into her heart from the back, the force so great that she was pinned to the ground on the spot, and the letters were stained red in a pool of blood.

After Shihe Yicun vented, his eyes were clear and he said.

"Send someone to deliver a letter to Tsutsui Shunkei, and bring her this battle report sent by the eldest sister.

Tell her I'm going to kill Spoo Silver. If she dares to send troops to fight me, I will abandon the Spo coalition and go back to the division to drag her into hell with me.

If she still has a hint of female ambition, let her do it herself.

As long as I kill Sipo Yiyin, I will withdraw from the army, and this Yamato is still her world. ”

As soon as Tokawa existed, he knew after Suzuki Shigehide's betrayal that the logistics were over.

Now she just wants to kill Sipo Yiyin to vent her anger, and then go back to seppuku to harm herself, begging Miyoshi Changqing for forgiveness.
