different warring states of japan

Chapter 496
In the battle of Omi, the Liujiao family was defeated.

The reason why her family ended up anticlimactic was also because Maeda Yili invaded Koka County with a small amount of Iga troops, seriously threatening the hinterland of Minami Omi Liujiao.

Since this battle, Maeda Yoshiki has jumped onto the stage of recent years, becoming the general of the Shiba family who has attracted the attention of all parties.

Inside the castle tower of Koriyama Castle, Nizi Shengjiu held the letter from Maeda Yili, and was silent in thought.In the lower part, Somo Yagyu was waiting respectfully.

After a while, Nizi Shengjiu came back to his senses and said.

"You have done a good job, the situation at home has stabilized, and you have achieved success in serving the public. I will write to the lord to ask for your gratitude."

Munemo Yagyu bowed and saluted.

"This is all thanks to the adults who presided over the overall situation. I just did some small things."

Nizi Shengjiu smiled, just listen to polite words, of course the rewards should be given must not be less, and the Liusheng family is not a good stubble.

Munemo Yagyu is the Mutsuko of the Shiba family, and his mother Mune Yanagyu is the Daimotsuko of the shogunate, and they have been on a killing spree lately.

After the Shiba family went to Kanto from Yiyin, there has been some instability in the Siba area in recent days.The ability to stabilize the situation depends entirely on Nizi Shengjiu sitting at home, and Yagyu Somo is a sharp knife in her hand.

And Ashikaga Yoshiki squeezed out the forces of the shogunate in Kyoto, robbed the land, robbed people, and robbed the trade routes, forcing the shogunate to have no way out, and even used the white gloves of Yagyu Zongyan to the full.

Yagyu, mother and daughter, are now very popular figures in the Kyoto area, and their humble and powerful officials have attracted everyone's attention.

Nizi Shengjiu comforted him.

"It is the highest principle of the Wu family to reward the public, and the lord is just and strict. Of course, he will not let the Liu Sheng family do things for nothing, so you can rest assured.

Speaking of it, you are still reliable in your work, and the leader of the project has not come back in Kyoto, and he doesn't know what he is busy with. "

Liu Shengzong's heart trembled, and he lowered his head and said.

"It must be that the lord intends to let Takada Yukino-sama sit in the capital. I dare not speculate on the lord's mind, and I only want to do my duty."

Seeing her frightened like this, Nizi Shengjiu was anxious to get rid of the relationship, so he could only smile mischievously.

She had no other intentions, but Yagyu Somo was very cautious.

When Yoshihiro Shiba left Jinji, he left the Yagyu team with Niko Katsuhisa, and left the middle team with Akechi Mitsuhide, and the two presided over the affairs of Jinji, one inside and one outside.

With Maeda's brilliant performance in the Battle of Omi and Shiba Yoshigin gaining a firm foothold in the Kanto region, the slight turmoil within the Siba Territory in recent days has gradually dissipated.

Nizi Shengjiu used Yagyu Zongmo very well, and intended to fight for her to be the leader of the project.Looking at it now, he is meddling in his own business.

Yagyu Somo did not dare to accept the chief officer's kindness, and his mother was working in the capital, so she secretly took care of her.

Others don't know what happened in the Kyoto Imperial Palace Swordsmanship Competition, but the two mothers and daughters know it well.

Takada Yukino beheaded ten master swordsmen in front of Ashikaga Yoshiki because the swordsman humiliated Shiba Yoshigin. What a harsh reaction.

Liu Sheng Zongju thought to himself, if that person wanted to kill him, how much would he be able to withstand?The more I think about it, the more chilling I feel.

The strongest swordsmanship in the world, belonging to the two sword masters.But compared to killing people, maybe Takata Yukino, the crook with a sword in his hand, dares to call him the strongest.

How nice it is for this one to stay quietly in the capital. Isn't it courting death to grab her seat by yourself?Yagyu Somo didn't have the guts to fight.

Nizi Shengjiu just said it, and she didn't mention it when she was rejected. She was even more troubled by the letter from Maeda Yili in her hand.

Just after the curtain call of the battle, this person is eager to ask for credit for others, Fujido Takatora, Otani Yoshitsugu, and one of the samurai warriors under his command, what does this mean?
Nizi Shengjiu was a little annoyed.

Of all the forces in the Shiba family, the strongest is Shiba Mikaki, headed by Maeda Shoji.All three of them were from Yiyinfang Jinji warriors, and they made great achievements in battle.

In the Omi War, Maeda Mojo took the lead and made great contributions to the stability of the Shiba family.But she was too arrogant and domineering to take credit for her own people blatantly.

What is the layout of the Lord's recent departure?It is for stability!

Maeda Yoshitsugu and Otani Kichitsugu have already controlled Yuno, Minami Iga, out of the three Iga regions, and this time they want to use rewards to erode Akechi Mitsuhide's Kita Iga.

Because Yiyin divided the territories, a large number of direct leaders were distributed to various forces in the form of Sibo materials.

Therefore, it is reasonable to give Sibo's information to the meritorious officials as a reward.

But Maeda's interests are too selfish, and she named Mitsuhide Akechi's name at the Shiba Institute in order to secure a place for marriage and suppress other competitors.

What Nizi Shengjiu feared most finally happened.

As the power of the Liujiao family weakened, it was heading for civil strife.The various forces in the Spoel family have also eliminated external threats, lost the goal of fighting against each other, and lost the willingness to work together.

Maeda's interest is to set off a dispute over marriage, and take advantage of the fact that Yamanaka Yukimori and Shima Katsuo are not close to each other, so as to weaken the power of Akechi Mitsuhide's opponent first.

Nizi Shengjiu pointed with his fingers.

The mountains in Kanto are prosperous, and the island is fierce.

Maeda Toshiie of Owari.

Akechi Mitsuhide of Kyoto.

Yono Takada of Sakai Port.

As long as Maeda Yili starts to fight, none of these Ji warriors will give up. They will definitely fight to the end for the sake of their lord, and no one will give in.

Niko Katsuhisa suddenly had a splitting headache, Maeda Masaru, an idiot, is she going to demolish Shiba's house!

Nizi Shengjiu was still suffering from a headache, and there was a message from the messenger outside the door, and two more letters arrived, from Kita Omi Fujido's house and Minami Iga Otani's house.

She froze for a moment, glanced at ten lines, and finally let out a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I'm not the only one who is frightened, Shiba's house will not be demolished by these bastards for the time being.

---

On the border of Iga Omi and the two countries, the Maeda interest garrison point.

In the main shogunate, Maeda Yoshitoshi looked annoyed, pacing left and right in front of Otani Yoshitsugu, and said angrily.

"Ji Jiji, what do you mean!
You contributed a lot in this battle, I begged for a reward for you, but you wrote letters to shirk and didn't discuss it with me, are you planning to part ways with me? "

Otani Yoshitsugu knelt in his seat, faced Maeda's accusation, and gently shook his head.

"I don't get paid for nothing, I just stabilized the rear, and I didn't make any contribution.

Your lord treats me with such kindness as a mountain, and I am eager to ask for a reward for such a small merit. I have no face to do such a shameful thing. "

Maeda Rishi blushed and roared angrily.

"You mean I'm thick-skinned!"

Otani Yoshitsugu calmly looked at the furious Maeda Yoshitsuya and said.

"Liji, you shouldn't be like this. You know how the lord treats you.

It's just a matter of containment. As the chief general of the recent few Sibo collars, this is your job.

But you are eager to ask for a reward, and even take the opportunity to suppress Mitsuhide Akechi, do you think you are doing the right thing! "

Maeda benefited for a moment, speechless.

She does have selfish intentions, except for Takada Yono, who dominates the lowly business and tries to get ahead, Yukimori Yamanaka and Katsutoshi Shima, who are a threat to her marriage, have all gone to Kanto.

Although it is said that near-water and high-rise buildings are the first to win the moon, the Wu family values ​​strength more.If you want to get married, the most important thing is to have a strong family.

She Maeda Yili is also considered a good general, so she naturally knows the truth that the opportunity must not be missed.

Taking this opportunity, he can suppress Mitsuhide Akechi, expand his influence in the Iga country, and completely secure his position as the number one retainer of Shiba.

But Otani Jiji's words poured a basin of cold water on her hot head.

She grew up in Shiba's house, and she couldn't do without the assistance of Otani Kichitsu and Todo Takatora, especially Minamiga Otani Kichitsu, who was an indispensable help for her to control the Iga country.

Now that Otani Yoshitsuji opposed her approach, could it be that he was really too impatient?

Maeda Masayoshi held his temper and said to her.

"Then you can also tell me in private, why bother to trust Nizi Shengjiu directly, and embarrass me."

Otani Yoshitsugu glared at her and said.

"Then you asked for credit, why did you do it first, and then tell me?

I am on good terms with you, but the lord treats me with such kindness as a mountain, how can I destroy his great affairs for the sake of personal friendship! "

Maeda benefit shook his head.

"How could I harm the Lord?"

Otani Yoshitsugu interrupted without waiting for her to finish speaking.

"You are harming the lord!
When the lord left for a few days, why did you appoint Nizi Katsuhisa, Akechi Mitsuhide and you to share internal affairs, foreign affairs, and military affairs?Have you ever thought about it?
You think that the Shiba family can sit back and relax, attacking Mitsuhide Akechi and making it difficult for Nizi Shengjiu, what are you thinking!
Shiba's family only has two hundred thousand shi in recent times!How much thought and effort did the lord spend to have the status he has today!

What would they think if outsiders saw the Shiba family fighting among themselves?Will the local powerful faction of the shogunate still be close to us?

What does the general in Kyoto think?What is she thinking about the lord, you really don't know?
The Miyoshi family and the Liujiao family are just in civil strife. They are all mobilized with millions of stones and [-] stones. How can you guarantee the safety of the Shiba family's territory!

Maeda interest!You can ignore these willful acts, but I can't!The lord treats me with kindness and rebirth, and I can only repay it with death!
I will write to Mr. Nizi Shengjiu.

One is to tell her that I have no infighting heart.The second is to tell you that Maeda Yili will wake up soon! "
