different warring states of japan

Chapter 1104 Miracles Shine in Guandong
Oda Nobunaga accepted this suggestion, and Shigeharu Takenaka was required to realize this plan, and this was the order to transfer her back to her side for consultation.

Who knew that Takenaka Shigeharu was unwilling to go back, and hoped to stay with Hashiba Hideyoshi to do things, which was creating a problem for Oda Nobunaga.

Or, abandon Takenaka's suggestion.Or, give Hashiba Hideyoshi a chance and use her to fulfill Takenaka Shigeharu's vision.

Hashiba Hideyoshi secretly glanced at Oda Nobunaga, seeing her staring at him without joy or anger, his heart trembled.For this moody lord, Hashiba Hideyoshi is afraid to the bone.

Looking back at Shigeharu Takenaka, she saw her smiling at herself.Hashiba Hideyoshi suddenly had a burst of courage in his heart, and said with a deep bow.

"Hime Takenaka is extremely talented, and I have benefited a lot from getting along with her for more than a year. I also hope that she can stay by my side and continue to help me!"

Oda Nobunaga pulled the corner of his mouth and cut it lightly.This little monkey usually sees himself like a mouse sees a cat, but he didn't expect to become fat with Takenaka Shigeharu today.

Niwa Nagahide on the side saw that Oda Nobunaga didn't mean to get angry, so he saw the need and helped.

"Hideyoshi has indeed improved a lot over the past year, which is impressive.

And she is very self-motivated, she works harder and is more reliable than ordinary samurai. "

Oda Nobunaga turned his head and glared at Niwa Changhide, and said.

"How much benefit did this monkey give you? Why do you protect her every time?"

He was cursing, but Niwa Nagahide's words moved Oda Nobunaga.

She glanced at Hashiba Hideyoshi, who was terrified but brave enough to face her, and finally couldn't help laughing.

"Finally a little brave, I'm a little surprised. I'm tired, you go down first!"

Hashiba Hideyoshi was a little dazed, but after saluting, he retreated together with Takenaka Shigeharu and Hachisuka Masakatsu.

Oda Nobunaga looked at the back of them leaving and asked.

"Mi Wuniang, do you think Hideyoshi can be used?"

Niwa Chohide said solemnly.

"Hideyoshi is a persuasive, motivated, and cautious person. If the Oda family needs someone to stay in Kyoto in the future, I think she is very good.

You know, she once went to recent days to buy iron cannons, compared the price difference between Kyoto and Sakai Port, and has a fairly in-depth understanding of the local area.She may be the person in the Oda family who is most familiar with Kyoto.

The situation is complicated these days, so you have to leave someone who is pure-minded and reliable to watch over you.

I think Hideyoshi is very suitable. "

Oda Nobunaga couldn't help nodding at Niwa Nagahide's words.

There is no shortage of capable people under her command, but each family has its own little calculations, but it is not as good as Hashiba Hideyoshi's background, less involvement, simple and easy to use.

Oda Nobunaga glanced at Niwa Nagahide and snorted.

"I knew that you couldn't hear bad things about her. I know, I'll think about it."

Niwa Chohide smiled wryly.

If you wanted to hear bad things about her, you wouldn't ask me, would you?It's obvious that you already have a plan in mind, and you just use me as a ladder to step down.

Walking out of the castle tower, Hashiba Hideyoshi bowed deeply to Takenaka Shigeharu.

"Thank you very much! Takenaka Hime!
I was the one who got you in trouble. For me, your good idea was rejected by the hall. "

Hachisuhe Zhengsheng patted his chest beside him, and said with lingering fear.

"You two are too brave.

In the past two years, the majesty of the hall has grown day by day. It has been a long time since I saw anyone dare to talk to her like that.

Especially you, Takenaka Hime, how dare you refuse the invitation of the hall face to face.My heart was about to jump out just now, I was really scared to death. "

Hashiba Hideyoshi sighed deeply, regretting.

"It's all because of me, causing Zhuzhong Ji to anger the hall."

Takenaka Shigeharu shook his head with a smile and said.

"No, on the contrary, the hall is very happy, she has already listened to my suggestion.

Congratulations, Hashiba-sama.The new opportunity you want, I help you win it. "

Hashiba Hideyoshi was taken aback, and asked.

"Really? But the hall obviously didn't say anything, so they sent us away."

Takenaka Shigeharu shook his head.

"The authorities are obsessed.

You have been with the hall for so long, you should know her temper best.If she gets offended, can the three of us get out of it unscathed? "

Hashiba Hideyoshi was thinking, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally bowed deeply to Shigeharu Takenaka in gratitude.

"Thank you very much, Takenaka Hime, I will never forget your help to me."

Takenaka Shigeharu also bowed deeply in return.

"Please don't do this, Hashiba-sama.

I, Shigeharu Takenaka, is really lucky to be able to gain your wholehearted trust. "

Hachisuhe Zhengsheng covered his heart and rolled his eyes, and said.

"Don't be polite, you two, next time you do something like this, can you let me know in advance, and I won't follow up.

As Takenaka Hime said, if the hall really gets angry, the three of us don't know what will happen.

Help me quickly, I suddenly feel a little weak in my legs. "

Hashiba Hideyoshi touched his head in embarrassment and said.

"Actually, I thought it was over just now, let's go, go to Maeda-sama's place tonight and have a good drink, so as to calm the shock of Hachisuka Ji."

Greeting Hashiba Hidecho and others who were waiting in the outer court, Hashiba Hideyoshi excitedly asked the guards and went looking for Maeda Toshiie's residence.

Shigeharu Takenaka, who was behind him, looked at her full of fighting spirit and smiled slightly.

This time, I shouldn't have chosen the wrong person.

In recent days, there has been a turmoil, and all parties are fighting openly and secretly. They all regard the capital occupied by Miyoshi's family as a piece of fat, and want to take the biggest bite.

But far away in Kanto, with the appearance of the ancestors of the Hachiman Shrine, the entire political situation began to undergo drastic changes.

In the cold winter with heavy snowfall, the scene of Tsurugaoka Hachiman Shrine bathed in sunlight can be clearly seen by the surrounding areas of Kamakura.

Under the eyes of everyone, this miracle was like a nuclear bomb explosion, and the sound waves swept outward, and the aftermath rippled throughout Guanbazhou.

At that time, in addition to the confrontation between Echigo and Hojo, there were also high-ranking samurai from the Kanto parties who were fishing in troubled waters.

They witnessed with their own eyes the whole process of Hachimana's Genyoshi family appearing and granting Shibo Yoshihiro a silver imperial white flag, and they were deeply shocked.

There are many active volcanoes in the Japanese archipelago. Since ancient times, the mountains have erupted, and earthquakes and tsunamis have continued.This geographical normality has developed a unique local national character, emphasizing names and ignoring real things.

In this troubled land, there are no real ancient buildings.What ancient relics can be preserved intact in the face of disasters again and again?
The house can be rebuilt if it collapses, and the three artifacts can be rebuilt if it is lost.Can the imperial white flag of Mrs. Hachiman really be preserved for five hundred years without decay?Of course not.

But this does not hinder the spirit behind this banner, the spirit of the samurai flourishing, fighting for their own destiny, and seeking rewards from the public.

Hachiman Tai Niang Yuanyi's family fought against the native Mao people in Kanto for twelve years.The emperor's court is unwilling to acknowledge the bloodshed and sacrifice of the Wu family, and is unwilling to give rewards, so she will give it!

Since then, Bando Hime Samurai has always remembered the Hachiman Tainiang Genji's family and the descendants of the Hanoi Genji family.

It was the fetters formed by this kind of reward that made the Bando Hachihei family choose Minamoto Yoritomo when they couldn't bear being squeezed by the court headed by Kiyomori Taira, and strive to conquer the world of the samurai family.

Now that Guan Bazhou is withered, the concubines have no longer had the ambitions of their ancestors, but are just obsessed with the plundering of their own one-acre and three-thirds of land.

But in the heart of Bando Ji Samurai, there is no desire.The glory and pride flowing in their blood always remind them who they are.

The Kanto samurai are cunning and cunning, follow their influence, and treacherous.But in the face of the miracle of Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine and the royal white flag of Hachiman Tainiang Genyoshi's family, they still have a sincere heart.

Kanto has been ups and downs for five hundred years, and occasionally thinking about the past, she is still a girl.

Hojo Shiyasu couldn't believe it was true when he received an urgent letter from Hojo Genan from Tsuruoka Hachimangu.

When Fumanin's information arrived, and the two reflected each other, she sighed deeply.Hojo's family is always in the sky, but Shiba Yoshiyin has the blessing of his ancestors, so he can't fight.

The Hojo family came from recent days and has been cultivating Kanto for three generations. They sincerely hope to be accepted by the Kanto samurai family and integrate into the land of Guanbazhou.

No one knows better than Hojo Shiyasu what these proud and sensitive Kanto samurai are thinking.

After confirming that Yubaiqi's miracle was not fake, Hojo Shiyasu knew that he had lost.She no longer hesitated, and rushed to Tsuruoka Hachiman Palace day and night.

A few days later, outside the dance hall.

Hojo Shiyasu and his daughter Hojo Ujimasa led many important officials below Hojo Genan, bowed their heads and bowed their heads, congratulated Uesugi Terotora with a sword, and expressed their submission to the new Kanto leader.

Since then, Ashikaga Yoshishi and Hojo Ujiyasu formed the new Kanto system under the leadership of the generals, and it collapsed.The battle between the two Kantos came to an end.

---

After Uesugi Terotora and Hojo Ujiyasu greeted politely, the Echigo side finally achieved their political goals and knocked down the Hojo family as a political disadvantage of local forces.

The Echigo army no longer hesitated after completing the goal, the whole army went north and returned to Ueno country.

Along the way, they broke away from the Kwantung Allied Forces and returned without permission. Various samurai families sent people to Sipoyi Ginza to kowtow to the imperial white flag to plead guilty.

Even the Satomi family from the Boso Peninsula and the Satake family from the Hitachi country also sent horses to protect the imperial white flag and protect the imperial palace from returning to the north.

Narita Choyasu, the chief culprit who led to the disbandment of the Kwantung Allied Forces, came to the Echigo army in person to plead guilty.Uesugi Terotora forgives her mistake under Shiba Yoshigin's moderation.

For a moment, the eyes of the entire Kanto were focused on Yoshihiko Shiba, and on the imperial white flag behind him, and the atmosphere was as enthusiastic as a celebration.

After entering the Ueno country, the armies of various families left one after another and returned to take a rest.Shiba Yoshigin and Uesugi Terutora returned to Numata Castle, the dispatch point of Echigo's army.

---

Shiba Yoshigin looked at the waning moon in the sky and let out a long breath.Under the low temperature in the cold winter, the heat is steaming like fog.

At this time, he was in the Sanfeng Mountain not far north of Numata City, meeting with Uesugi Terotora to soak in the wild hot spring here.

Japan has many volcanoes and hot springs everywhere.

In this barren island nation, the upper class has little luxury.It's nothing more than an extra piece of radish and dried fish in the rice bowl, or drinking the tea powder soup to pretend to be a cultural person.

And in the boring winter, the only thing left is to enjoy the hot springs.

Yiyin sighed again. Compared with soaking in hot springs, he actually missed the hot pot in his previous life more, which is the magic weapon for winter.

It's a pity that in this island country where supplies are scarce, where can the mutton and beef be prepared?Not to mention those condiments and side dishes, just thinking about it makes my mouth water and makes me feel uncomfortable, so it's better not to think about it.

Since I promised Uesugi Terutora last year, I will accompany her to the hot springs when I have time.Since then, she has been very caring, taking Yiyin to the hot springs whenever she has time.

This time, Echigo's army went south, and the Kanto strategy finally came to an end. Although the result was not perfect, it was acceptable.

The two of them returned to Numata Castle, and as soon as they put their minds to rest, Uesugi Terutora took Yoshigin to soak in the nearby hot springs.

Yiyin was actually not happy.

The Echigo army went south to occupy the territory of Numata, almost blatantly swallowing the Numata family's territory.Although this is already the territory of Echigo, it is not as safe as Echigo's homeland.

Who knows, will there be some extreme retainers in Numata's family?
The brains of Japanese samurai are sick. Sometimes they are scared to death in order to keep the family business, and sometimes they are brave enough to sacrifice when they get up.

Yiyin really dare not bet that these neurotic warriors are clear-headed, and they go out of the city to ruin their lives, holding countless banners and books, and they will not be clean.

But helplessly, Uesugi Terutora stalked him so hard that he was inconvenient to refuse too bluntly.In the end, I followed to the wild hot spring of Sanfeng Mountain, and Uesugi Terutora's wish was fulfilled.

The area around the hot spring has been carefully searched by the Banners about a dozen times, and the inside and outside are wrapped in white cloth to keep out the wind. The mountain hut has been tidied up and he is invited to stay temporarily.

He walked slowly all the way from the hut to the hot spring.Along the way, the Banners looked at him with strange eyes, solemn and yearning.

Yiyin sighed secretly, the power of this imperial white flag was far more powerful than he thought, and it even made him a little scared.

Although he knew that the Kanto Wu family valued tradition, he was still a little confused by what happened after he got the Yubai Banner.

Hojo Ujiyasu just knelt down, and he didn't resist even if he resisted, as if he was waiting to be dealt with honestly.

Narita Changyasu offended Uesugi Terutora so much that he dared to come to the army to plead guilty, weeping bitterly in front of Yi Yin, begging for forgiveness.

The Satomi family who couldn't beat him with eight poles, the Satake family and the martial arts from the five eastern countries, dared to send people to protect him and protect Yubai Qi back to the north.I'm afraid that if I'm one step behind others, I'll lose face for myself.

But the more they are like this, the greater the pressure on Yiyin.

The huge reversal of the Kanto situation is beyond Yoshihiro's imagination, and the admiration of these Kanto samurai comes from the heart.

Yiyin accepted their respect and was placed on a lofty throne. This time, he really couldn't step down.Either stay high forever, or fall to pieces.

He regretted a little, why did he want to covet the extraordinary Royal White Flag.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.Behind this royal white flag is the melancholy of the Guandong Wu family who have been lost for two hundred years, and their status has been constantly falling.

Since the decline of the Kamakura Shogunate and the rebuilding of the Ashikaga Shogunate, the center of the samurai world has shifted from Kamakura to Kyoto.

The Kanto samurai family who used to be domineering at the feet of the emperor suddenly became countrymen, and Kamakura fell into a small fishing village.

How could the proud Bando Hime samurai bear this huge gap?
