different warring states of japan

Chapter 1602

Oda Nobunaga is the well-deserved king of the island nation in this era.

Through her strong will and military talents, she revolutionized politics, military affairs, and economy.

Seize a lot of resources from the corrupt land nobles and monastery nuns to build the almost invincible chariot of the Oda Legion.

If Yoshigin Shiba hadn't appeared, no one in this world would be Oda Nobunaga's opponent, because Oda Nobunaga's thinking is across the ages, and he has punched out the innovative policy combinations of various companies.

The samurai live together, seize the land of the temple, sink the management to the village, and break the glass ceiling of the ashigaru rising.

Everything Oda Nobunaga does is to strengthen the strength of the Oda family, and it is also stabbing the heart of traditional conservatives.

But on the battlefield, no one can defeat the Oda Army, because Oda Nobunaga, who has liberated a lot of financial resources and manpower, can mobilize more forces than his opponents to suppress them.

Oda Nobunaga is in the period of victory on the battlefield, liberating more productivity, and continuing the spiraling period of victory on the battlefield. This kind of all-round suppression is a blow to the traditional samurai group.

The appearance of Shiba Yoshigin seems to be a big joke made by history and Oda Nobunaga.

Shiba Yoshiyin's military strength is far weaker than that of Oda Nobunaga, but the economic and political construction has dealt a blow to Oda Nobunaga from another level.

Yono Takada, who was in charge of the Hokuriku trade route, made many economic policies that ordinary samurai could not understand at all.

However, Yoshihiro, who comes from modern society, can understand Takada Yono's economic means, and supports her in trying the most advanced financial innovation in this medieval era, commonly known as the Ponzi regime.

Unable to understand, the allied Samurai group was almost unsuspectingly overwhelmed by the Shiba family's financial system and became a cash machine for Shiba's food coupons.

Politically, compared with Oda Nobunaga's iron-handed centralization, the Shibachu Fund built by Yoshigin with strong financial resources, and the Shiba establishment, is another kind of suppression from high latitudes to low latitudes?
During the Warring States period of the Celestial Dynasty, Xunzi had already had the theory of discussing soldiers, which was passed down to the world.

Xunzi once visited the Three Kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Qin, and finally concluded that Qin was the best, Wei the second, and Qi the worst.

The military of Qi State implements a mercenary system, and mercenary soldiers can only bully the weak, and they tend to retreat once they encounter a strong opponent.

Because mercenaries are here to make money, not to fight for their lives. Confronting a powerful opponent will inevitably lead to heavy casualties.

What is the use of money when people are dead?Therefore, mercenaries are selfish, and the big deal is tough battles.

And this kind of employment is like the essence of the island nation's samurai family.

Fenggong reward can also be regarded as a kind of long-term employment. The land servants are loyal to the daimyo, willing to follow the daimyo to eat and drink, and bully the weak.

However, if they encounter a powerful enemy, the land servants are easily swayed and give priority to the interests of their own small group. The speed at which the daimyo's forces fall apart is sometimes so fast that people are stunned.

Although Oda Nobunaga has made some reforms, she can't change the essence of the samurai family. All the small groups in her Oda Legion are equally selfish and easily shaken.

In Xunzi's view, mercenaries are soldiers who will subjugate the country, and Qi will end sooner or later.

And Wei State, which is one level higher than Qi State, plays with the formation of soldiers.

Recruit strong warriors, give them land, and exempt their families from taxation. As a propertied Wei soldier, his land and wealth are all tied to the battlefield of Wei State, so he naturally has the heart to kill the enemy and move forward bravely.

Sibo Yiyin's Sibo weaving can be regarded as another kind of Wei Wuzu.

The Ji samurai of the Shiba family has hard-core crops that can guarantee the harvest in drought and flood, and firmly supports the Shiba family, willing to fight to the death in order to preserve the interests that are bound to the Shiba family.

But this kind of formation of soldiers, in Xunzi's view, is a dangerous soldier for the country.

Because the establishment soldiers will get old and weak, in order to deal with the war, Wei State had to recruit more formation soldiers.

On the other hand, even though the veterans can't move anymore, they don't like being compared to the newcomers and losing their good treatment.

The discord between the old and new establishments, and the continuous expansion of the establishment in order to cope with the war, will sooner or later crush the finances and become unsustainable.

Therefore, in Xunzi's view, Wei State's military formation is dangerous to the country. It is fine as a one-time-use soldier, but in the long run, it will become more and more bloated, lifeless, and endanger the country.

To put it simply, Wei Guo cannot be strengthened by the establishment.Organization leads to monopoly, monopoly leads to rigidity, and combat efficiency will only become lower and lower.

The Siba-made Ji samurai in Shiba Yoshigin's hands can be regarded as a soldier who endangers the country. Although Xunzi despises him, he has the effect of lowering the weft when dealing with Oda Nobunaga's subjugated soldiers.

How could the selfish Oda vassals, who only cared about their own small group, be able to defeat the Shiba vassals who were united and united at the critical moment?
Shiba Yoshigin's ability to defeat Oda Nobunaga in the Yuwuhu battle seems to be a miraculous coincidence, but behind the coincidence is the economic and political blow of the Shiba family to the Oda family.

Apart from his military strength, what is Oda Nobunaga stronger than Shiba Yoshigin?
At this time, the two parted ways in the face of future choices.

Oda Nobunaga continues to walk the road of iron-fisted power centralization, trying to complement each other through conquest and innovation, snowballing his strength, conquering the world, and fulfilling her strategic thinking of distributing military power to the world.

On the other hand, Yoshiin Shiba, on the basis of financial plunder and establishment expansion, used his physical advantage to conquer by blood, and established the Siba Lighthouse belief line that controlled the world of samurai with theocracy.

Both of them get what they need and are very satisfied with the current cooperation plan.

It's like two stockholders who are trading stocks. One thinks it's cheap to buy, and the other thinks it's expensive to sell. They said silly b to each other in their hearts, and happily completed the transaction.

At a meeting, Shiba Yoshigin and Oda Nobunaga who were kneeling were very satisfied, and the various forces who came to watch the ceremony also saw clearly the reality of the Shiba Oda two joining forces.

The recent political situation is accelerating toward unification.The Hatano family in Tanba country and the Araki family in Settsu country, which are not under the jurisdiction of the Shiba Oda Federation, began to worry about the future.

At the same time, Shiba Yoshiyin announced that he would open a government office in Fushimi Castle to maintain the daily operation of the shogunate during his general Nishikari, and Oda Nobunaga expressed his willingness to assist.

Oda Nobunaga's name is assistant, in fact, everyone can understand that this is the joint governance of Shiba and Oda, and Shiba Yoshigin has copied the Echigo model in recent days.

Back then, Shiba Yoshigin followed Uesugi Kenshin to the Echigo Kingdom, and Shiba Uesugi and his family joined forces to launch the Kanto Raiders.

The Royal Pavilion under Kasuga Mountain Castle was dedicated to Shibo Yoshigin by Uesugi Kenshin as Shiba Yoshigin's residence in Echigo Kingdom.

Because the Imperial Palace itself is the government office of Uesugi Kenshin, after Shiba Yoshigin settled in, the Shiba Uesugi and his family began to govern jointly.

To this day, the Royal Pavilion is still a symbol of Shiba Uesugi's joint governance. The Kanto Chamber's big review is held here, and the standing council is also held here.

Today, Shiba Yoshigin replicated the Echigo model to recent days, using Fushimi Castle as the government hall, and co-governing with Oda Nobunaga, also intending to replicate the success of Kanto.

Shiba and Oda joined hands to establish mutual trust and co-governance at the Fushimi City Hall, which is conducive to future political stability.

Oda Nobunaga readily accepted Yoshigin's kindness, and the relationship between the Shiba and Oda families has now entered a new stage.

　Going out to do odd jobs tomorrow, this book will be stopped for a day.
