different warring states of japan

Chapter 2033 Who is it?

The land of western Ueno separates the Koshin Mountains from the Kanto Plain, and the famous Kurumi Castle in the north blocks the best passage from the Echigo Mountains into the Kanto Plain.

Tochio Castle in Chugoku is the gateway to Joetsu, and the Honjo clan of Shimotsu moved north to the Shonai area, and their influence has reached the north-south dividing line of Dewa.

The Kaji clan, also part of the Shimoetsu clan, invaded the Aizu region, captured the two counties of Nishi-Aizu, and stopped in front of Lake Inawashiro.

It can be said that the troops under Sanada Nobufusa occupied the important passes in Kanto, but her own power was not great.

The Sanada clan is very powerful and is known as the best army in the world, but their territory is only a few hundred thousand stones. Given their large layout, this amount of troops is like sesame seeds scattered on a pancake, sparse and scattered.

Why did Sanada Nobushige take the initiative to write a letter asking Gamo Ujisato to take over the four counties of Aizu? It was because she knew herself well and knew that she could not swallow the fat piece of 400,000 stones of Aizu, and she was afraid of being choked to death.

Not to mention, there are a large group of local tyrants with 200,000 to 300,000 stones in the Minami-Osu Basin, and Sanada Nobushige can't deal with them.

Originally, Gamo Ujisato went to Aizu. Given her background, the local samurai did not dare to confront her, the saint's most trusted confidant. Instead, some of them would join her.

She can naturally pull one group together to fight another, and then slowly build up her own base.

But with the death of Gamo Ujisato, Yoshigaki had no choice but to let Sanada Nobufusa take over the business himself, which would most likely lead to the expansion of the Kajishu and their loss of control.

Shimoetsu is home to elite soldiers who have fought in hundreds of battles, and Aizu is also a place where wars have taken place many times, and the local samurai are also very powerful.

  Now the Aizu clan dare not confront the Kanto Samurai, but the Shimoe clan, a bunch of roughnecks, will not be able to chew fine chaff. Over time, the two sides will inevitably confront each other.

Sanada Nobushige originally didn't want to take on this hot potato, but if Yoshigaki really asked her to go, she had no choice but to go and light the firecracker.

But now, Date Masamune saw through the saint's helplessness and Sanada Nobushige's predicament and was willing to help. This was different.

In order to take over Aizu, the Date family had already sown trouble with the Ashina retainers. The Aizu samurai were divided into the pro-Ida and pro-Satatake groups, and they had already fought several battles. This was the source of the local powder keg.

If the saint asked Sanada Nobufusa to take over Aizu, Satake Yoshishige would definitely not dare to do anything behind the scenes. The matter of the Satake family being renamed Dewa was imminent, and she would not make a fool of herself at this time.

The power of the Date family is nearby. If Date Masamune is willing to come forward to lend a hand to Sanada Nobuyuki, the pro-Satatake and pro-Date factions of the Aizu samurai will inevitably stop and the overall situation will be settled.

All Sanada Nobushige needs to do is hold the reins of the Shimoeshi tribe, and neither the Shimoeshi tribe nor the Aizu tribe will cause trouble. Sanada Nobushige can naturally take over slowly and digest this gateway to Oshu.

Yoshigin figured out the whole thing, looked up at Date Masamune, and asked even though he knew the answer.

"Why are you helping Sanada Nobushige?"

Date Masamune looked at Yoshigane and smiled gently, then spoke softly.

"Your Excellency has misinterpreted the subject. I have no relationship with Lord Sanada Nobufusa, so I am not helping him. I just want to share your worries."

Yiyin looked at the docile sick beauty and asked again indifferently.

"The four counties of Aizu are the place you have always dreamed of conquering. Why are you giving it to someone else so easily? What do you want from me?"

Date Masamune rubbed the corner of his clothes with his fingers and said with a blushing face.

"I admire saints so much and I want to have children for them."

Yiyin nodded, as expected.

Date Masamune was born at the wrong time. Her ambition to dominate the world had just begun when she encountered the embarrassing situation that the overall situation in Kanto had already been decided.

  The three families of Uesugi, Takeda and Hojo have all surrendered, and the entire Kanto samurai clan has submitted. How can she possibly go against the trend with her own strength?

Since you can't beat them, then just join them. In the Sasaki world, saints are respected and descendants of gods are the most precious. The Date family cannot seize the world through force, so they must find a way to stand on the side of the victor and become the vested interests of the new era.

  Date Masamune ignored the ridicule and sarcasm of the Kanto samurai and ran to Edo Castle and Tamonyama Castle despite his status as a daimyo to serve the saint as a slave. Wasn't it just to obtain the bloodline of the descendants of God?

She knew very well that the saint was a man and that he talked more about interests than feelings, so she took another approach and was willing to shamelessly squeeze in to be close to the saint, even at the cost of tarnishing her own reputation.

Sure enough, the saint was merciful and allowed her to ascend the holy bed. Now the only step left was to ask for seed.

Yoshigin naturally knew what Date Masamune was thinking, but he was powerless to refuse.

Firstly, Date Masamune's appearance was too deceptive. Although he knew that this girl was gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, he could easily feel pity for weak girls, just like Yuigahama Yui.

Secondly, after Tozawa Moriyasu's death, Yoshigin's investment went down the drain, and a pillar of his layout in Oshu was broken. Date Masamune volunteered to have a baby, so let's give her a chance.

After the death of Gamo Ujisato, Yoshigane has now completely given up his desire to hunt for beautiful women.

Counting the women around him, there are already twelve families of descendants of the Sasaki, including Takeda, Uesugi, Yuigahama, Hojo, Shima, Hosokawa, Akechi, Ryomaeda, Amago, Sanada, and Takata.

If Date Masamune is blessed, it will be the thirteenth family.

There are the thirteen families of the Sasaki clan, as well as the women around him who are not yet pregnant, and the southern barbarian women. Yiyin feels tired just by counting them.

The grass can’t move, the grass really can’t move. Let’s end it here. This girl, Date Masamune, may be the last newcomer of Yoshigin.

From now on, he, as a saint, had to consider the dozen children and could no longer act recklessly, waving Jill around casually and creating new troubles.

Date Masamune's path to advancement was completely blocked after she succeeded in it.

Yoshigin glanced at Date Masamune who was full of expectation and said.

“Let’s leave the Aizu matter alone. I will write to Sanada Nobushige and ask her to take over.

As for you... I will give you a chance, but whether you succeed or not depends on God's will."

"Thank you, Saint. I will not leave these few days. I will stay in Duowen Mountain Castle for a few days and then return to Ou with the group."

It seemed that he was too happy. Date Masamune smiled like a flower, and his blood rushed to his head. His face turned red and he couldn't help coughing.

Yiyin took a look at her sickly appearance, sighed, and couldn't help but complain.

"How many days in a row? Can you do it?"

Yoshigin's teasing seemed to have touched a switch. Although Date Masamune looked as docile as ever, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

  Put yourself in his shoes. This is like a powerful and vigorous character in a male-dominated world. If you ask him if he is capable of that kind of thing, he would say:

Scholars can bear it, what can't bear it.

Date Masamune was young and one-eyed, weak in body. She had been active in Oshu for many years, and she hated being looked down upon by others the most.

That is to say, she acted well in front of the saint, and she was patient and did not dare to lose her temper, but when she got on the saint's bed, she would naturally let the saint know whether she was capable or not.

Yiyin doesn't realize at this moment that he has stirred up a hornet's nest by speaking out of turn. In a few days, he will have back pain and know who is in trouble.
