different warring states of japan

Chapter 175 Change of Owners
In Koriyama Castle, Shigenobu Matsukura frowned at Shimakatsu who was carrying the decree.

"The decree is here. Shiba Yuzeng is already waiting outside the city, please don't delay, Matsukura-sama."

Shimao Katsuo no longer had his usual kindness, and looked at Matsukura Shigenobu expressionlessly.

The neighbors of the Tsutsui family used to be able to drink and fart together on a daily basis, but now they are their own masters, which is also helpless.

Shima Katsuo finally understood why his family was suppressed so badly. His hatred for Tsutsui's family and Yagyu's family was hard to dissipate.

These two families oppressed the Dao family openly and secretly, and seized the leadership of Peking University and the Wu family.If it weren't for the information provided by San Taifu Baiji, Shimao Katsuo didn't know how long he would work for Tsutsui's family.

The Matsukura family is the descendants of the Tsutsui family tree, who have been loyal for generations.

Matsukura Shigenobu is Tsutsui Junkei's confidant.If you say she doesn't know many things, you must be lying.At this time, she had already seen the clue, and Dao Sheng suddenly knew it.

In this regard, she was relieved.Speaking of which, the relationship between the two is good, but this matter has been stuck in her heart, and because she is loyal to the lord, she can't say it clearly.

The Shima family must be defeated. This is the Tsutsui family's decision to deploy the traditional northern samurai family. She is not qualified to question it, let alone destroy it.

Now that Katsumi Shimao understands it himself, it also saves her from having to suffer from deceiving her friends.

It's just that I didn't expect that Katsuo Shima came here this time and brought a decree from the lord, asking her to surrender Koriyama Castle to the Shiba family.It was difficult for her to accept that the battle of Yamato still had to be obeyed by Shibo Yoshin.

She is Tsutsui Junqing's confidant, and she lives alone in the north. She knows many things clearly.The Tsutsui family and Kofukuji have had great differences over the years.

This matter starts with the decline of the Faxiangzong sect and the attachment to the Shingon sect, and the Shingon sect took over Kofukuji.

The Shingon sect has been in charge of Kofukuji Temple for three generations.When the first dharma master was sent by the Shingon sect, the two leaders of the nun and martial arts had different attitudes.

Ochi is proud of his home skills and doesn't know how to advance or retreat.The Tsutsui family was respectful and reasonable, and had the audacity to kneel and lick.

The first dharma lord was placed high hopes by the Shingon sect, so he was naturally a ruthless character who killed and made decisive decisions.So they suppressed the Ochi family and promoted the Tsutsui family.

With the help of the Tsutsui family, he secured the position of the head of the Kofuku-ji Temple and laid the foundation for the Shingon sect.The Tsutsui family also took advantage of this credit to monopolize the Yamato Nun Wu Family.

Since then, the Tsutsui family has gradually become a situation that cannot be lost.When it came to Tsutsui Junkei, she used various means to unify the nun and samurai family, and even the Ochi family was won over by her.

Outsiders see that Yamato is still respected by the master of Xingfu Temple, but in fact, the rights of Xingfu Temple have been shrinking.

Tsutsui Junqing's biggest distress is that even if all the nuns and samurai are recruited by her, she still cannot replace the lord of Kofuku Temple and become the lord of Yamato Kingdom.

Because even if you bought all the high-level warriors, the low-level believers, the low-level nuns, still recognize the Dharma Lord.

The foundation of a religious leader lies in the believers, so even if Kofukuji Temple is not as good as it used to be, Tsutsui Junkei still looks forward to the temple and cannot replace it.

Until the Miyoshi family invaded Yamato this time, Tsutsui Junkei was terrified.But in the crisis, in the midst of the danger, she still found a good opportunity.

While asking for help from the shogunate, she gathered the army to defend Tsutsui Castle, just to have an opportunity, an opportunity to destroy the temple and nuns.

As long as Xingfu Temple is destroyed by war, whether it is Miyoshi's family's actions or her own actions, she will obstruct the reconstruction of the temple in various ways.

Without Xingfu Temple, there would naturally be no Xingfu Temple Master.How can the Shingon Sect continue to rule Yamato in a legitimate way?
Believers must recognize it in another temple.The more determined a person is, the more stubborn he is.

As long as decades passed, the people at the bottom gradually forgot the rule of Xingfu Temple.Then the Tsutsui family, who possessed Yamato's secular management rights, became a veritable guardian of Yamato.

Although this right was given by Xingfu Temple, but Xingfu Temple is gone, who will take it back?

Shingon?Alright, you send a master of Xingfu Temple first.No Kofukuji Temple?Let's talk about Xingfu Temple first.

Everyone can be a rogue, it depends on whether you have the strength.

Tsutsui Junkei didn't tell anyone about his little thoughts, but both the priest of Kofuku Temple and Matsukura Shigenobu of Koriyama Castle were aware of it.

Now the Lord has directly intervened in secular affairs, bypassing the Tsutsui family, and giving Koriyama Castle to Shiba Yoshiyin.

If Matsukura Shigenobu couldn't feel the fear in it, he wouldn't be worthy of the same name as Shimakatsu Meng.

The Tsutsui family is no longer trusted by the lord, so new forces were introduced to check and balance the Tsutsui family, even sending them out of Koriyama Castle.

With Junshan City, it can radiate and influence Peking University and the Wu family. This is at least a territory of one hundred thousand stone.

It is only the mages in the temple who are willing to part with it. Whether it is a samurai or a nun samurai, moving a stone is a battle of life and death.

Shimakatsu saw Matsukura Shigenobu's hesitation, sighed and said.

"You don't need to think too much. Before I came in, I had already read the decree at the gate of the city. At this time, the entire city should be taken over by the Yihe people."

"you!"

Matsukura Shigenobu stared fiercely at his old friend with wide eyes.

Shimakatsu shook his head violently and said.

"If it wasn't for buying time, why would I hesitate to stay with you for so long, it was just to watch you and buy time for them.

Ukin, you and I are friends, I don't want you to die worthless.Don't struggle anymore, you have no chance to fight back, follow me out of the city to meet Shiba Gozen. "

Matsukura Shigenobu sat down slumped, and nodded slightly.

Junshan City changed hands.

Not far from the city to the south, you can faintly see a trace of the mountain line, which is the station of Zahezhong.

At this time, Miyoshi Yoshiko was also talking to Suzuki Shigehide in the main shogunate.

"Report to the general, all the troops have returned, and there are 682 Ji warriors in total."

As he said that, Shigehide Suzuki was heartbroken.This time Zahezhong lost more than [-] people, all of whom were dependent on her.

Because most of the Chinese are dispatched by the family as a unit, the Chinese who were ambushed and assassinated by the Iga crowd were probably women from fifteen villages.

Most of the women in a village were killed in battle, which is equivalent to destroying a family.This time, at least fifteen people from the country were gone, which had already affected her prestige among the crowd.

But she still had to grit her teeth and insist on stationing here, just because the pie that Miyoshi Yoshiko drew for her was too tempting, and she became greedy.

Miyoshi Yoshiko didn't know that Shigehide Suzuki felt a little bit of regret in his heart, she asked with concern.

"Did they bring back any food? How long will the food on the mountain be enough for us now?"

Shigehide Suzuki replied.

"I brought a lot, and the military rations on the mountain are enough for us for two months."

Miyoshi Yoshiko smiled happily.

The samurai's domestic battles rarely lasted more than ten days, because the peasants and soldiers who brought their own dry food could only bear ten days of military food service.

And the samurai went abroad to fight more attrition.The ten-day round-trip supply line can also use farmers and soldiers to transport axle-loaded materials.

Further distances require the assistance of merchants, and the transportation is light enough, and the consumption is several times that of domestic ones.

Japan's barren land cannot provide sufficient logistical support. Even if it has been accumulated for several years, it is only enough for the huge army of the Miyoshi family to fight for sixty or seventy days in the near future.

The shogunate was even more embarrassed.Although the logistics line is shorter, the shogunate army has more sources and fewer supplies, and it lasts no more than forty-five days.

Moreover, the shogunate army mobilized a large number of farmers and soldiers to transport grain and grass. Once the autumn harvest was approaching, the farmers and soldiers would inevitably riot.

Now that Zahezhong has enough supplies for them to last for two months, Miyoshi Yoshiko is naturally happy.

Now the recent war has started for nearly ten days.There is enough food for two months, and there are living springs on the mountain to drink water.And Zahezhong is good at iron cannons, which is just suitable for defense.

In this way, it will be no problem to defend until the end of the last few days, and it will be safe to stick to it and wait for help.
