different warring states of japan

Chapter 1350 The main war faction and the main peace faction

Akechi Mitsuhide kept a low profile for Shiba Yoshihide, the core intention was to use the hands of Oda Nobunaga to make the world's samurai completely disappointed in the general and the shogunate.

Yiyin wants to rule the world of the Wu family as a man, and it is absolutely impossible to succeed by following the normal route of fighting for hegemony.

The shogunate collapsed, and in front of the unstoppable Oda Nobunaga, the traditional samurai who desperately wanted to protect their own interests would abandon the distinction between men and women and support Shiba Yoshigin as a general.

The Wu family is hypocritical, but they place great emphasis on etiquette.

Shiba Yoshigin wants to become the father of the samurai family, and everyone has no objection.But if he wants to become a pillar of the Wu family and become a general in the Kaikai Mansion, it will be difficult.

The foreign domain will hold on to the issue of him being a man, and Yoshigin will be trapped in this matter forever, unable to stabilize his Shiba shogunate.

Just as Wu Suo returned to the Tang Dynasty, the Siba shogunate of Yiyin is likely to perish in the end.

But Akechi Mitsuhide discovered an excellent opportunity, that is the rise of Oda Nobunaga.

She had carefully studied the policies of the Oda family, and it was really a stab at the lungs of the traditional samurai family. Oda Nobunaga wanted to revolutionize the lifeblood of the traditional samurai family.

Between the difference between men and women and innovation, all samurai will choose one of the two without hesitation, and they will choose to support a male general instead of letting Oda Nobunaga change the world.

It doesn't matter whether Jill is under the shogun.The traditional order of the shogunate and the transcendent status of the samurai must be maintained.

Therefore, in Akechi Mitsuhide's design, the Shiba family must not enter the battle now, and watching from the sidelines is the most correct choice.

No matter how dangerous the situation is and how powerful the Oda family is, as long as the general and the shogunate are not completely disappointed and abandoned by the samurai all over the world, the Shiba family can only grit their teeth and watch Oda Nobunaga sweep the world.

But Maeda Yili, the military chief who is near the Sibo territory, can't see this level of political strategic determination.She just thinks from a military point of view that this is the best time to intervene in the war situation.

Akechi Mitsuhide neither wanted to explain, nor could he persuade Maeda Yili.So the purpose of her coming today is to use the hands of all concubines to suppress Maeda Yili who is about to move.

The Takata Yukino mentioned earlier was also a foreshadowing for this attempt.

What Maeda Yili said was reasonable and restrained, and all the concubines present nodded in agreement.

Nizi Shengjiu said.

"I remember that when Ji Zhizhi suggested that the lord should withdraw from the capital, she put forward the suggestion of keeping a low profile and making a difference.

It is important to keep a low profile, but it also needs to make a difference.If we hold back, I am afraid that both sides of the shogunate and Oda will intensify their efforts, and the future will not end well. "

Nizi Shengjiu was dissatisfied with the fact that Akechi Mitsuhide stopped the lord and refused to let him come back, and couldn't let it go.

Even though Akechi Mitsuhide had thousands of reasons, Nizi Shengjiu was responsible for all the pressure Shiba had been under in the past few days. Does this count as whether it is difficult for others to shoulder the burden?Do you feel pain when you see people being stabbed?
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled slightly, and pulled Takada Yukino out to talk about the matter.

"The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the toughness knows the honest minister.

When something happened to the Shibazhong Fund, there are people from Chicheng like Mr. Yukino to share your worries.But the hearts of the powerful local factions are unpredictable, so how do we know who is truly worthy of the trust of the Shiba family?

As far as I know, Mibuchi Fujihide-sama and Ninagawa-sama have been wooed by the general one after another, but only Mibuchi Fujihide-sama made a disappointing move.

Who is the friend of the Shiba family and who is the enemy of the Shiba family? This is the first problem that the Siba family must solve when facing a complex and changeable situation.

If the lord comes back early, those with ulterior motives will surely die down and plan another plan.

In order to avoid future troubles, why not take this opportunity to let us have a better look.Who is trustworthy, and who has failed the lord's kindness. "

Nizi Shengjiu listened thoughtfully, but Takada Yono's pupils shrank, always thinking that it was not a good thing for Akechi Mitsuhide to mention Yukino twice.

Maeda benefit sneered again and again, and said with a cut.

"Wise Ji is eloquent, she is indeed a talent who played house games with the general in Kyoto.

It's a pity that in this chaotic world, people's hearts are erratic.The only thing that can really be trusted is money and food for swordsmen and gunmen.

If the Shiba family keeps silent, even the samurai who intend to follow the Shiba family will feel uneasy, and sooner or later they will choose to abandon the Shiba family under pressure.

If you want to gain a foothold in troubled times, you don't need to rely on the power of your tongue, Sensei Ji.

Whoever wins, the samurai will go with him!If we want to stabilize people's hearts, we have to strike hard! "

Akechi Mitsuhide didn't wait for the other girls to react, and retorted first.

"So, is this the reason why you contacted the Koga people and the Liujia remnant party in Ishibe City without discussing with us?"

Niko Katsuhisa just felt that Maeda Yoshihisa's words were quite reasonable, when he was disturbed by the news of Akechi Mitsuhide, and asked solemnly.

"Maeda Hime, is this true?"

Maeda Masayoshi narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his eyes glanced at Santai Fu and Yagyu Munemo who were sitting with him.

Mitsuhide Akechi discovered what he had done just now. Could it be that Ninja and Mutsuke noticed the clue and tipped off the news?
However, San Taifu of the Hundred Lands and Somo Yagyu did not look sideways, and sat beside the two wood carvings, as if they could neither see nor hear the dispute.

They are not fools, and this dispute over comments is a struggle for power between Mitsuhide Akechi of the peace faction and Maeda's interests of the war faction.

Akechi Mitsuhide is in charge of diplomatic service, so he naturally hopes to join forces and show his strategy.

And Maeda Lili was in charge of the military, and he hadn't fought for two or three years. A group of Ji warriors under his command were so hungry that they wanted to fight a battle and be rewarded for their meritorious service.

The methods of the two sides are completely different, and there will be ghosts if they don't quarrel.

Ninja Muko is the Lord's eyes and ears and loyal dogs. If they get involved in the line disputes of the big bosses, there will be no benefits but only disadvantages. Of course, they must pretend to be deaf and dumb and remain neutral.

Seeing them like this, Maeda Masayoshi speculated in his heart that this matter should have nothing to do with the confidentiality group Yagyu group.

She suddenly remembered that before the lord left Kyoto, he had given Akechi Mitsuhide a group of ninjas jurisdiction, namely Fujibayashi Muku and others. This bastard had his own independent source of information.

The corner of Maeda Rishi's eyes twitched, and he stared fiercely at Akechi Mitsuhide.

This bastard didn't use the ninja on foreign enemies, but sent him to monitor himself, the general who has been in the past few years, how unreasonable!

"Akechi Mitsuhide! How dare you!"

Seeing that Maeda's interests were about to explode, Nizi Shengjiu shouted.

"Calm down! Maeda Hime!"

Maeda Masayoshi bared his teeth and sneered.

"This guy used the ninja who the lord stayed in Kyoto to do things on me, it's too presumptuous!"

Nizi Shengjiu said in a deep voice.

"Don't be impulsive, first listen to what Zhizhiji has to say."

Akechi Mitsuhide smiled gracefully and said.

"Maeda Hime doesn't seem to deny that she secretly contacted the Koga Congregation and the Liujia Remnant Party? So it's true?
Don't get me wrong, I didn't send anyone to watch you.

It’s just that Oda’s chief minister, Niwa Nagahide, was in Minami Omi to win people’s hearts for Her Highness Oda. Out of diplomatic considerations, I investigated her situation in Koka County, and calculated the degree of Oda family’s control over Minami Omi.

It's just a coincidence that I discovered the secret communication between Maeda Hime's people and the local Koga people.

I didn't want to hide it from you either. You see, I told you face to face when I came this time. "

Seeing Akechi Mitsuhide's hypocritical smile, Maeda Mashiro wanted to step forward and tear it off immediately.

But she was impulsive, accidentally slipped a word, confirmed Mitsuhide Akechi's conjecture, and instead fell into a passive state.

Under the questioning eyes of the concubines, Maeda Yili snorted, sat down firmly in his seat again, and said calmly.

"That's right, I sent someone to test the Jiahe people, the Liujiao remnants, what's the matter?"

Akechi Mitsuhide's smile became brighter, but his gaze became aggressive.

"What Maeda Hime said, back then, in order to prevent the Liujiao family from attacking the Asai family in the north, you personally led people into Koka County and slaughtered several villages, scaring the people of Koga to regard you as a nightmare.

Now, without the order of your lord, you contact these old enemies without authorization.If the Oda family misjudged my family's attitude and thought that my family deliberately intervened in Minami Omi, wouldn't it be troublesome?
The lord personally issued the order before he left. In the past few days, Sibo leader has to hide his strength and bide his time. How can you explain to the lord that you provoke yourself?
You have to know that although the lord is not nearby, Takada Yukino-sama and Sanka Yuezong are still here, so you should take care of yourself. "

Takada Yono's scalp tingled when he heard that, this Akechi Mitsuhide is too insignificant.

It was obvious that she had a strategic disagreement with Maeda's interests, and the two sides had a dispute.But from the beginning to the end, Akechi Mitsuhide didn't openly fired a single shot, and all the fuck pulled Nizi Katsuhisa and Takada Yukino.

It seems that Katsuhisa Niko, Mitsuhide Akechi, and the two sisters of Takada jointly put pressure on Maeda's interests. Mitsuhide Akechi, a poisonous man with a sweet belly and a sword, is too bad.

Although Takata Yukino stepped down as the leader of Mutsuki, and was even seriously injured and lost all her martial arts skills, she still has the famous sword Mikazuki Sokami.

This sword was given to Takada Yukino by Ashikaga Yoshiki before his death, and ordered to protect Shiba Yoshigin.

In Kyoto Tenchu, Takada Yukino was seriously injured in an ambush, Shiba Yoshihiro went crazy and asked Mibu Wolf to kill, and gave the sword the right to cut first and then play.

With the double authorization of Ashikaga Yoshiki and Shiba Yoshigin, Mikazuki Munechi allowed Takada Yukino to kill almost all the high-level samurai in the Shibachu Foundation without encountering any resistance.

This special power made Shiba's retainers fear more than any specific position.

Akechi Mitsuhide deliberately put a high hat on Takada Yukino all the way, so he wanted to block Maeda's interest here.

Takada Yono was trembling with anger, but thinking of Yukino's indifferent and paranoid temperament, he was really worried.

She frowned.

"If you have something to say, talk about it, what kind of nonsense!

Today's deliberation is because Mr. Nizi hopes that everyone can have an open and honest discussion, so that we can unite as one to the outside world.

It's a good thing for everyone to speak out, why bother to make a fuss and spread the word to make outsiders laugh! "

Takada Yoshino didn't want to make trouble, so he could only come forward to make peace.Xue Nai slaughtered the Shibazhong Fund once, which has already attracted the attention of all the people. Now the Takada family just wants to keep a low profile and don't want to be used as a gun by others.

Maeda Mashiri also calmed down at this time, she figured it out, Akechi Mitsuhide had deliberately set himself up today.

If you can't make it clear about your contact with the Jiahe people, you will pour a pot of dirty water on yourself to raise your own self-esteem and plot evil.

Even if I am not afraid of the oblique shadow, this stigma is really hard to wash away, so I have to make it clear today.But as soon as he explained it, it was like a subordinate explaining the problem, and he fell into a disadvantage instantly.

Maeda Mashiro looked at Akechi Mitsuhide with a livid face, this is Akechi Mitsuhide's purpose, right?

Nizi Katsuhisa sighed, and she also saw that Akechi Mitsuhide was using sewage to trap Maeda Yili, so that she would not dare to move around.

Maeda Yoshitoshi is the general of the Shiba Commander in recent days. As the saying goes, she does not accept military orders abroad, so she has some initiative in military affairs.

But being disturbed by Akechi Mitsuhide, before the lord returns, Maeda Yili should not act rashly.This is not because the lord doesn't trust Maeda's interests, but because he wants to avoid suspicion as an important minister.

Among the ladies present, Niko Katsuhisa has the highest status, followed by Maeda Yoshiki and Akechi Mitsuhide, followed by Takada Yono and Ishida Mitsunari.

The San Tai Fu and Liu Shengzong did not dare to interfere with the comments at all, they just came to observe, and if they asked about intelligence and miscellaneous matters, they were responsible for explaining.

Akechi Mitsuhide held Niko Katsuhisa with one hand, and used Takada Yukino with the other hand to force Takada Yono to come out to make peace, which immediately put Maeda Yoshihisa in a passive position.

Nizi Katsujiu looked at Mitsuhide Akechi dissatisfiedly. This guy had already calculated before the deliberation, and he wanted to use this deliberation to suppress the possible military independence of Maeda's interests.

Although Niko Katsuhisa also disapproved of Maeda's reckless actions, Akechi Mitsuhide's trick of borrowing the tiger's skin was too insidious to make people feel good.

After taking two deep breaths, Maeda Masaru gradually calmed down.She also knew that even if she endured a black brick from Mitsuhide Akechi, she still had to explain clearly today.

Fortunately, the future is long, and there is always a chance to pay back this debt today.

Maeda Masayoshi said coldly.

"The year before last in the Kanto Raiders, in order to raise food for the lord, I sent it to the Echigo Kingdom. Maeda Toshiie-sama acted as a lobbyist and traded Suzuka Pass to the Oda family, and His Highness Oda agreed to the deal.

Both Niziji and Takada Ji knew about this matter. "

Nizi Katsuhisa and Takada Yono nodded.

When the Kanto strategy was launched, the Kanto drought broke out.

Shiba Yoshiyin finally persuaded the Echigo samurai not to go south to grab grain. He had to consider the support of the people, so he had to prepare a large amount of grain to supply the military.

The Nobi Plain has thousands of miles of fertile soil and a high yield per mu, so it is naturally an important supplier of grain for the Shiba family.

In order to let Oda Nobunaga, the ruler, loose mouth to sell food, Maeda Makuri gave the Oda family the Suzuka Pass that he had seized from the Koga all those years ago, and the deal was concluded.

And Suzuka Pass is also the strategic thoroughfare for the Oda family to enter and exit North Ise and South Omi.

Maeda benefit continued.

"Without Suzuka Pass, the Iga Basin is tantamount to being sandwiched by the Oda family from the southern Omi and northern Ise, strategically very passive.

After the Oda family captured Minamiise, they could cut into Yamato from the south and stab me in the back. "
