Chapter 2023 Date Masamune comes to Luolai

Since ancient times, rulers have focused not only on internal affairs, but on external affairs.

Kuroda Takataka will do whatever it takes to draw Shiba Yoshigan's attention into his own house, in order to secure the only strategic window period for the Hashiba family.

No matter how much Hashiba Hideyoshi hated Kuroda Takaka for his boldness, he had no choice but to accept this reality.

Because there is a saint behind Miracle Maru and the Qingzhou Conference has great righteousness, Hashiba Hideyoshi wants to engulf Oda and start a new one. He must have strong strength as soon as possible to compete with the Shiba family branch.

Otherwise, Hideyoshi Hashiba's success today is just a dream, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Hideyoshi Hashiba sighed.

"Two years...two years...time waits for no one."

Kuroda Takagao kowtowed to the ground and said seriously.

"Although no one in the Oda family dares to oppose the Lord, if the saint intervenes, these wallflowers will not do their best for the Lord.

Although Owari Mino, Omi Ise and other old Oda leaders were good, it was not convenient for the Lord to influence the knowledge and behavior of local old Oda ministers.

If we want to forge ahead, we can only go west.

Unite the Maori family of the Western Kingdom, conquer the four countries and nine states, and take half of the world to feed the loyal ministers. Only when they are full-fledged can they compete with the Shiba family for the world. "

Hideyoshi nodded. This was a strategic direction that she had repeatedly considered. She had discussed it with Kuroda Takataka and other important ministers many times, and she had already had a clue.

It's just that he was trapped in the Oda Civil War and Saba coveted it, so he couldn't make the trip.

Now that Oda is internally pacified and Shiba is taking care of it, it is the best time to expand westward and strengthen itself.

The Maori family of the Western Kingdom and the Nizi family under Shiba's command have become a feud, and both sides are fighting to the death.

The enemy of the enemy is a friend. Hideyoshi Hashiba will inevitably continue his previous friendly relationship with the Mori family and bring Western countries to his side.

Furthermore, although there are more than ten countries in the Western Kingdom, the land is barren and the wealthy families are stubborn. The total of them is only a million stones. It is difficult to obtain and useless, and it is really useless.

Kanto is already in the possession of the Shiba family, and it is inconvenient for Hashiba Hideyoshi, the old ministers of Oda in Kinki, to touch their territory.

The retainers under Hashiba Hideyoshi were the samurai she recruited from Omi, Harima and other places, and they were her base.

The top priority is to let these people taste the sweetness, let them become loyal lackeys of the Yushiba family, and expand the direct leadership of the Yushiba family.

After taking over Shikoku and Kyushu, winning over the Maori family in the West, and slowly digesting Oda's old ministers under Oda's old collar, it was possible for Hashiba Hideyoshi to have a fight with Shiba Yoshigan.

This road is full of hardships, but it is the only way Hashiba Hideyoshi can defeat Yoshigan Shiba and win the world. She must go on it.

Kuroda Takataka secretly harmed the Kamao clan and cut off Hashiba Hideyoshi's last thoughts.

There is no airtight wall in the world. Hashiba Hideyoshi didn't dare to bet that the saint would never hear the slightest news in his life. She had absolutely no way out.

Either seize the world, or be killed by Shiba Yiyin, there is no third possibility.

Hashiba Hideyoshi took a deep breath, his eyes were no longer confused, and his eyes were firm and sharp.

----

I heard a lot about mountain cities and lived in the museum.

Yiyin looked at the jade hand holding the medicinal soup in front of him, rolled up a spoonful of it, cooled it slightly under the red lips, and then brought it to Yiyin's mouth.

Yiyin swallowed the bitterness gently and looked at the girl who was holding the medicine. One of her eyes was dim, showing eye disease, and her face was pale.

Seemingly flustered by Yiyin's gaze, the sick beauty coughed twice, which made Yiyin sigh.

"Whether you are the patient or I am the patient, I always feel that you deserve to lie down more than me."

The sick beauty smiled and said nothing, and repeated the previous action again, putting the decoction into Yiyin's mouth.

Yiyin tasted the bitterness carefully, as if it was atonement.

In fact, his health is very good, and the special effect of being permanently sixteen years old means that he has never been sick. Rather than saying that he was sick, it was better to say that he was heartbroken, filled with regrets, and the bitter decoction was his self-punishment.

Since ancient times, all innovations have shed blood and sacrificed their lives. Yoshigan has always been indecisive, unable to make up his mind to reform politics, until the death of Kamo clan.

No one knows the problems of the Spo family better than Yiyin. This is the hidden danger he has left behind after ten years of expanding his influence.

The gods and vassals only take benefits and do not assume obligations. The two hodgepodges of the shogunate and the Kanto Palace are full of snakes and rats, self-interested people. The three major Spur leaders are even more like a bottomless pit.

Yiyin has a reputation of benevolence and righteousness, but if the place is allowed to rot and the central authority is weakened, the Sibo regime may only die in the next generation.

Once upon a time, Yiyin wanted to make peace with the situation slowly, not to be too sentimental, not to persecute the central government too much, and to let the local authorities take the initiative, but in actual operation this was not the case at all.

Things in this world are always overcorrected and must be overcorrected. Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind. Do you want to reconcile?

What a mess!

The more you reconcile, the more trouble you get. In the end, you can only trust in the wisdom of future generations and expect them to wipe your ass.

But the Spo family is a huge mess, and if Yiyin, a saint with high prestige, does not change it while he is still alive, it will be impossible for future generations to clean up this mess.

The Kamo family saw this clearly and stepped forward for Shiba Chiaki's plan, but the result was a miserable end.

She actually suffered it for Yiyin, and Yiyin knew it very well. It was because he knew so well that Yiyin could not forgive himself even more.

Yiyin was in a daze, and the sick beauty who was giving the medicine asked softly.

"What is the saint thinking?"

Yiyin looked at the beauty in front of him and said casually.

"Why did you come to Kinki?"

The sick beauty smiled.

“The Date family had a close relationship with the Kyoto shogunate, and it was common for them to pay tribute to Luo.

I originally thought that the land of Aizu had an owner, so I followed the team to find out the news this year, but I didn't expect that such an accident would happen.

I heard that the saint was ill, and the foreign minister volunteered to serve me. The saint did not abandon me and allowed me to come in. The foreign minister was extremely grateful. "

Yoshigan looked at the magnanimous Date Masamune in front of him and shook his head slightly.

"I almost forgot, the Date family is really good at doing things. They have been cultivating relations with the shogunate for hundreds of years, and even squeezed out the Osaki family of the Shiba family."

Yoshigami's words were a bit frivolous, Date Masamune curled his lips and said in a strange manner.

"The saint really knows how to speak."

Yi Gin smiled, he didn't deliberately bury Date Masamune.

The Date family has always been very good at making trouble, and can be said to be the Ou samurai daimyo who knows best how to establish a good relationship with the Kyoto shogunate.

For hundreds of years, it has continued to pay tribute to falcons, war horses, and souvenirs, gaining the trust of Ashikaga Shogun, and becoming a strategic chess piece of the shogunate's suppression of the Kanto Shogun Kamakura-don, hence the name Oshu.

Now in Dading, Kanto, the Shiba family has the potential to replace Ashikaga Tenka. Date Masamune no longer considered conquering Ou by force, so he picked up the old routine of his ancestors and came to Kinki to pay tribute to Yoshigan.

On the way, I heard that the Kamao clan was entrusting Aizu with 700,000 koku, which must have made Date Masamune fearful.

Because Yonezawa, Fukushima, and Minamisendai were all in the hands of Date Masamune, and the Kamo clan was entrusted with the Ou Portal Frontier, the first person to deal with was Date Masamune, the restless local thorn.

Now that the village of Kamao clan has died unexpectedly, and the saint is heartbroken and sick, Date Masamune simply came to serve him and be a good boy, which is not a loss at all.

She had been on the holy couch, and Yoshigan did not reject her closeness, so he allowed her to serve inside, just like the old days of Edo Castle, where she was a slave and a maid.

To say that Date Masamune is also capable of bending and stretching, Hokui Gakushu is very good.

A group of noble princes once swept across Ou, coveting the world, and now occupy important places such as Yonezawa, Fukushima, and Sendai.

Today, she is willing to do servant work such as feeding medicine. Others are indeed not as weak as her. No wonder she can climb the mountain and make the saint happy.
