different warring states of japan

Chapter 188
Before Ashikaga Yoshiki could react, he had already played a good show, and Yusa Nobuko, who had an excuse, led the Nanhanoi army to retreat overnight.

Gathering the forces staying at Takaya Castle, they announced the "truth" of Hatakeyama Takamasa's assassination of Yusa Chokyo, and Yusa's family turned out of the Hatakeyama family.

Then, Anmi Naomasa, who was stationed in Iimoriyama Castle in the north, was filled with righteous indignation, and also announced that he would leave the Hatakeyama family and set up his own family.

For a while, the shogunate was very excited.

Fortunately, both of them sent messengers to express their continued obedience to the shogunate and to oppose Hatakeyama but not the shogunate.

It was only then that the shogunate army's logistics was barely maintained, and Ashikaga Yoshiki had no choice but to know the real truth.

Could it be that for a Hatakeyama Gaozheng who was already in a mess in the shogunate army's stroke, to offend two noble families in Hanoi who would affect the victory or defeat of the shogunate army?

At this time, no matter how angry he was, he could only endure it. The general Ashikaga Yoshiki was too aggrieved.

In normal times, the shogunate would definitely criticize such an act of breaking away from the master's family and self-reliance.

But it was the critical moment of the fierce battle, as staunch as Ashikaga Yoshiki, and he also knew not to lose the big because of small things, and just be patient.

With the general's acquiescence, the one-sided opinions of An Jian's family and You Zuo's family have temporarily passed the test.

It is also because Hatakeyama Gaozheng has learned from Ki Yiguo's past, which is too unpopular.Most of the samurai families believed it, so the two families got benefits and wronged Hatakeyama Takamasa severely.

It's fine for Yusa's family to occupy Takaya Castle, but Iimori Mountain Castle on the west side of the Ikoma Mountains is stuck at an important node in the logistics line of the Shogunate Army, making Ashikaga Yoshiki in a dilemma.

If the two families start a fight, they must be colluding with Miyoshi's family.If the Sanhao family paid a big price, would they choose to give up their current position and fall to the Sanhao family?
Don't talk nonsense about being obedient to the shogunate. Rebellious ministers who have turned against their masters have no reputation at all, and some are just for sale.

While Ashikaga Yoshiki was in distress, worse news came.

The governor of Izumi Hosokawa's family, Yuan Chang, defended the Izumi North Line, and Anzhai Dongyasu was unable to attack repeatedly.

Matsunaga Hideo brought a group of people from the southern line to sneak in and attack Kishiwada Castle.

Izumi's forces were concentrated in the hands of Hosokawa Motosō in the north, and his daughter Hosokawa Fujitaka barely lost the city, and sent envoys to the front for help.

Hosokawa Motochang was shocked and sent troops back to help.Dong Yasushi Antaka seized the opportunity to defeat the northern defense line in one go.

Now Hosokawa's mother and daughter are besieged in Kishiwada Castle by the North and South armies, and the threat of Izumi State to Sakai Port has been completely eliminated.

Ashikaga Yoshiki got the news and sighed.No more hesitation, the general retreated to the border of the mountain city of Hanoi.

Relying on the Yodo River in the north and the Ikoma Mountains in the south, the defense line was rebuilt.

However, the decline of the shogunate coalition forces has become apparent. Not only the Rokkaku and Asai families in the North and South Omi have expressed their intention to retreat, but the voices of the capitulation faction headed by Ise Sadakyo in the shogunate have begun to appear again.

The internal divisions of the Shogunate Allied Forces expanded, but the Shiba Allied Forces were united and their morale was high.

After Master Changjue of Xingfu Temple issued two edicts, Yiyin has won a complete moral victory.

The former decree requiring all Yamato nuns and samurai to assist the Shiba coalition forces is fairly general, but the latter decree designating Miyoshi Changqing as an enemy of Buddhism is a bomb that detonated in Yamato.

Before the aftermath of the bomb blasted out of Yamato, Yiyin took advantage of the shareholder wind and went south.

Regardless of the matter of the Buddha's enemies, Changjue was dismembered by various sects afterwards.

At least for now, Yiyin has obtained absolute authorization from both the shogunate and religion, and has completely killed Shihe Yicun on the moral level.

Miyoshi Changqing also won the dual status of Enemy of the Samurai and Enemy of Buddha, and his reputation has reached a level and reached a new height.

Since ancient times, no samurai family has been accused of being a public enemy by both the shogunate and Buddhism, which is a great blow to the Miyoshi family.

It's a pity that this Buddhist enemy is just the words of the family of the master of Xingfu Temple. If they really get the approval of all sects, no matter how powerful the Miyoshi family is, they will have to go back to Shikoku in despair.

Not to mention Hongan Temple, Nerai Temple, Enryaku Temple and other recent sectarian forces, just one kui of the Buddhists in their own territory is enough for Miyoshi's family to drink a pot.

What a pity, what a pity.

However, in the current situation, Shihe Yicun has been completely isolated in Yamato, and no force dares to cooperate with her.

In this way, Yiyin can finally go south with peace of mind, and kill Shihe Yicun before other sects react.

The terrain of Tsutsui Castle is low-lying, and there are plains nearby, with a wide view.

The Tsutsui family built a series of villages with Tsutsui Castle as the core, relying on these small towns and villages to resist the army of ten rivers and one village in the south.

Not far to the east of Tsutsui Castle is Toyokawa.Toyokawa floods from time to time and is a fast-flowing stream.

Toyokawa runs from north to south, passes through the east of Tsutsui Castle, and then circles to the southwest, forming an inverted L shape.

Yiyin went south along Fengchuan, and the coalition forces moved very quickly, and arrived at their destination in a day and a half, echoing Tsutsui City in Hexi in the east.

Ten Rivers camped in the south of Fengchuan, and the positions of the three sides formed an inverted font.

After setting up camp and surrounding the shogunate, Yiyin called all the concubines to discuss matters.

"Matsukura Hime, hurry back to Tsutsui Castle now. Tell Tsutsui-sama, the Lord's decree is clearly announced to the world, and let her think it through herself."

"Yes, Imperial Majesty."

Matsukura Shigenobu didn't talk nonsense, turned around and left.

She is an important minister of the Tsutsui family and a diehard of Tsutsui Junqing. Everyone knows many things in their hearts, so why pretend to be stupid to attract people's resentment.

The most important thing now is to tell Tsutsui Junqing what happened in the north, let her understand the cause and effect, and not misjudge the situation and make wrong choices.

Yoshigin watched Matsukura Shigenobu leave coldly.

With Kofukuji's designated Buddha-enemy method, it is absolutely impossible for Tsutsui Junqing to side with Miyoshi Changqing in this battle.

He didn't expect Tsutsui Junqing to help, as long as he didn't make trouble.

"Suzuki Shigehide, you gather the remaining available iron cannons in the hands of the Zahe party, and the other [-] people from the Zahe party will return to Jiyi to cut off the supply line of Shihe Yicun.

As long as they can cut off the logistics of Shihe Yicun, I will count it as a great achievement for you. "

Suzuki Shigehide let out a hi, and went down to do things.

Most of the black gunpowder of Zahezhong was abolished by a heavy rain in the system, and now the remaining iron cannons can only be concentrated to the elite Zahe party to play the greatest role in the joint battle.

As for the other miscellaneous congregations, Yiyin threw them back to Ji Yi Country in order to cut off Shihe Yicun's logistics and force her to take the initiative to attack.

You must know that Shihe Yicun, who sent troops this time, entered Yamato from Kii.

Grains and materials were shipped from Sakai Port, disembarked from the west coast of Kii, and transported by the peasants and soldiers of the people of Kii.

After passing the territory of Genlaizhong in the west, passing through the territory of Zagazhong in the east, and finally entering Yamato.

Now Zahezhong has abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, and joined the Sipo coalition forces.Then as long as people are sent back to interfere, the grain road of Shihe Yicun will naturally be cut off.

The land, farmers and soldiers are all miscellaneous, so let's talk about logistics and transportation.

There is no shortage of food in the plan of poisoning.
