Chapter 299: The Power of the Silver Bullet Offensive!
Of course, it was the Imagawa family who ultimately benefited. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The army funds of 150,000 guan and the army rations of more than 60,000 stone were enough for the army of 100,000 to eat for three months, and this was only taken out of a city in Xiaogu City.
Miyabe made it clear that the Asai family would fully support the Imagawa family's Kamiraku behavior. As the army continued westward past Asai Family's present-day Hama Castle and Sawa Mountain Castle, there was also food for the labor army to ensure that the soldiers were well fed.
The reaction of the Asai family made Gao Xianda very happy. "Thank you very much for your hospitality, the Imagawa family is the staunchest ally of the Asai family. ”
Since the Asai family has become a firm ally with the Imagawa family, there is no need for the Asakura family to stand up for the Asai family against the Imagawa family.
Therefore, the Asakura family also sent representatives over, and sent a few valuables to Gao Xianda and Meng Yan as gifts, and also attached 10,000 yuan of military funds to show their support for the Imagawa family. Of course, they hadn't fought head-on with the Imagawa family, and they didn't know how powerful the Imagawa army was, so they didn't send as many as the Asai family.
But the 10,000-guan military fund also looks a little too shabby, as if it is satirizing the Imagawa army. Gao Xianda said in his heart: "When we return to the army, we must let you know that we know that we are powerful!" ”
The territory of the Asakura family was not on the road to Shangluo, and they reluctantly expressed their sincerity, so Gao Xianda's army did not attack them, and went all the way to the southwest, out of the North Omi, and came to the South Omi, the Rokkaku family's sphere of influence.
Gao Xianda had sent someone over to greet them before. At that time, he only said that he wanted to borrow Lu Luo, and the head of the Rokkaku family, Rokkaku Chengzhen, also heard about the reputation of the Imagawa family, and did not want to be an enemy of the Imagawa family, so he agreed at that time.
Who knew that in the past few days, the Asai family suddenly began to hype up their alliance with the Imagawa family.
The Asai family claimed that they had provided the Imagawa family with a large amount of military funds and rations, forming a solid strategic alliance, and this time the Imagawa family was not only going west to Kamiraku, but more importantly, to avenge the Asai family.
The Rokkaku family has attacked the Asai family many times, and even made the Asai family subordinate to them for a time. Although with the help of the Asakura family, the Asai family eventually became independent again, but the hatred between the two families was very deep. Since it is said that revenge is going on, then it must be aimed at the hexagonal family.
The Asai family gave gifts to the Imagawa family, and they must have asked for something. And since the Imagawa family accepted it, they naturally agreed. So this time the Imagawa family's army marched west, and the ghost believed that they really just wanted to pass by.
If the Rokkaku family really opens the door to welcome the Imagawa family, I am afraid that the butcher's knife in the other party's hand will wave, and the Rokkaku family will perish from then on!
So Hexagonal Chengzhen was a little panicked.
When the Asai family propagandized, they deliberately doubled the amount of military funds and rations they provided to the Imagawa army. Naturally, the Imagawa Army will not come out to refute the rumors.
This amount of money and grain even exceeds the entire existing property of the Hexagonal family. If the Roxagonal family wants to buy the Imagawa army, they will have to give a higher price than this. In that case, what is the difference between the Hexagon House and being captured?
Then it's better to fight with one. But the strength of the Rokkaku family is definitely not comparable to that of the Imagawa family. So Rokkaku Seung-jin decided to ask for help from Miyoshi's family.
The relationship between the Rokkaku family and the Miyoshi family was not very harmonious, and there was even a war for the land grab.
But after all, the Miyoshi family is a giant who controls the entire region, controlling a large area of land including Kyomachi and Nijo Castle.
The so-called Shangluo of the Imagawa Army, in fact, is aimed at the Miyoshi family.
And if the Rokkaku family wants to retain their own power, then they can only bow to the Miyoshi family, and then join forces with the two families to fight against the Imagawa army.
And if the Miyoshi family doesn't want to face the attack of the Imagawa family on their own land, then it is best to choose to cooperate with the Rokkaku family.
Miyoshi Changqing was dead at this time. The new head of the family, Miyoshi Yixing, is still young, although he has good qualities and can be literate and martial. Once won a big victory in the battle with the Rokkaku family, and was evaluated as an ability even above Miyoshi Chokei. But after all, he has just succeeded to the throne, and there is no way to control the overall situation of the Miyoshi family.
The current situation of the Miyoshi family is very complicated, and the three of them are working separately. Miyoshi Changqing's younger brothers: Miyoshi Yoshiken, Anzhai Fuyasu, and Tokawa Ichikun are still alive.
The three uncles are all brave in battle, and Matsunaga Shu is even more of a treacherous and cunning person, and the three of Miyoshi are also ambitious guys.
When Miyoshi Changqing was alive, he was able to fiddle with all of them steadily. But Miyoshi Yixing has just taken office, and everything has to be done slowly.
The biggest problem of the Miyoshi family now is that the elite troops directly under Miyoshi Changqing were all folded in it during the Imperial Sky Tour, and the Miyoshi family was designated by the general as the enemy, which belonged to a state of both internal and external troubles.
The important ministers under the Miyoshi family have their own troops in their hands, and the Miyoshi family is weak, so the subordinates naturally dare to be disrespectful to the Miyoshi family.
The Imagawa family undoubtedly gave him a very good opportunity to rectify the internal contradictions in the family. The Rokkaku family sent a request for assistance to the Miyoshi family, and Miyoshi Yixing immediately agreed.
Miyoshi Yixing immediately issued an order, and the city lords returned to the city, mobilized their headquarters of soldiers and horses, and gathered under the city of Iimori City. With the second uncle Miyoshi Yoshiken as the general and the Yasuchi Toyasu and Tokawa Ichiku as the vanguards, Matsunaga Shu and Miyoshi must obey the order and send troops to support the Rokkaku family, and defeat the Imagawa family's attack in the territory of the Rokkaku family at all costs.
Everyone saw that he had a resolute attitude, so they did not object, and each of them was ordered to transfer troops.
Rokkaku Chengzhen heard that the Miyoshi family had decided to send troops, and his attitude towards the Imagawa family changed suddenly. In the eyes of the Rokkaku family, the Imagawa family suddenly changed from the savior of Kamiraku to the enemy of the invasion.
The Hexagonal family set up cards along the road to carry out guards, and concentrated the superior forces in the main city of the Hexagonal family, Guanyin Temple City.
Kannonji Castle is one of the largest castles in the world, larger than Inabayama Castle, and has an excellent geographical location. In the normal timeline, Oda Nobunaga built Azuchi Castle on the basis of Kannonji Castle, opening the Azuchi-Momoyama period.
Although the Rokkaku family did not have as many troops as the Imagawa family, they concentrated all their forces in the Kannonji Castle and relied on the thick city walls, so they really had an army of 100,000 troops, and it was not so easy to break through.
After the reinforcements of the Miyoshi family arrive, they can concentrate their forces to teach the Imagawa family a lesson.
When Gao Xianda learned the news, he was naturally very angry.
"This guy who backtracked!" Gao Xianda said angrily, "It's time for them to taste the horror of the Imagawa family!" ”
