Chapter 678 Frequent Crisis

The four of them talked and finally solved the trouble caused by the second public tax return.

Yi Yin said.

"When you go back, take out the reserves from Zhijiang Jinguan Office and distribute them to the Zhongxia Yue Wu Family. Don't be too demanding on the amount, if you can't figure it out, send as much as possible.

The matter of the second public's tax rebate review can be done at a later date, so that it can be thought out more thoroughly. "

Yiyin didn't care anymore.

Anyway, this time I will be taken advantage of, so I might as well be a good person to the end, and use money and food to buy a wave of favorability.

Of course Uesugi Terutora had no objection.

Although the Uesugi family also has a share of the reserve fund, this matter is a basket made by Uesugi's followers, and she, the lord, has to follow Yiyin to pay for the settlement.

Just as the two lords felt aggrieved and took out the money, there was a knock on the door outside the government hall.

Yi Yin frowned.

"what's up?"

The sliding door opened, Gamo Kamo kowtowed to the ground and said.

"Your Highness, Shigeru Honjo from Tochio Castle has an urgent message."

Yi Yin said with an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Bring it to me."

After Gamo's township delivered the letter, he withdrew.

Yiyin looked up to the sky and sighed after reading the ten lines at a glance.

One wave is not flat, and another wave rises again.What the hell is this Echigo country!There is no worry-free samurai!

Can't Uesugi Terutora have a few more Giriji samurai under his command?Learn from the samurai of the Shiba family, how reliable.

The Echigo samurai were dissatisfied at the slightest, and they turned against each other. No wonder Terutora Uesugi had such a bad temper.

Yiyin felt that he would be irritable after ruling this ghostly place for a few years, so he would draw his knife and slash through it when encountering something.

Kenyoshi Gin's face was gloomy, Terutora Uesugi asked.

"Kenshin, what happened?"

Yiyin smiled wryly.

"Fanchang urgently reports that Xinfa Tiancheng is hoarding military supplies, and seems to have objections."

Uesugi Terutora's complexion darkened.

"Is the news true?"

Yiyin nodded heavily.

"Probably not wrong.

Before winter, a large amount of supplies from Aizu entered the central area of ​​Shimoetsu, which was extremely abnormal.

Fanchang of the village sent people to investigate carefully. The supplies came from the Lu Ming family and the Date family. They were all food, grass and military equipment, and the destination was Xinfatian City.

It's almost winter, what do you do to send a large number of military supplies to the next country?It can't be a business, right? "

Uesugi Terutora scolded.

"Xinfatian Changdun is such a brave bastard. When I get my armaments in order, I'll catch her by surprise in spring."

Uesugi Terutoro hadn't finished speaking when there was another knock on the door, and Yoshihiro became even more irritable and shouted impatiently.

"What's the matter!"

The sliding door opened, and Kamo Kamo bowed to the ground to salute.Behind her, she followed Honjo Shino to salute together, which made the two lords feel bad.

Uesugi Terutoro said.

"What's going on? Ben Zhuang Ji, why are you here?"

Ben Zhuang really looked serious and said to the two lords.

"Over the guardianship of China, there was an urgent message from His Highness Jinbao Changshi, saying that there was trouble in Nanao Castle.

His Highness Hatakeyama Yoshizuna killed his important minister, Onjing Zongzhen, and was expelled from Nanao Castle by the retainer group. Now he is seeking asylum from the Shenbao family of China.

His Highness Hatakeyama Yoshizuna asks His Highness, you and Odaisho for help, hoping to get help to regain the family property. "

Uesugi Terutora cursed.

"Hatakeyama Yoshizuna misunderstood me!"

Yoshihiro Shiba's face was livid, and the Hokuriku Road trade route was in trouble.

The Zhongshan Road in central Japan is rugged. Since ancient times, the main commercial passages of Kanto and Kansai have been on the east and west sides of Honshu Island in Japan.

The two coastlines extend to the north, which are the two traffic routes of Tokaido and Hokuriku.

Over the past few decades, the Tokaido Imagawa family has risen.Today, Yoshimoto repaired internal affairs, made external contacts with diplomacy, and opened up trade routes along the Tokaido.

Imagawa Home Furnishing City, Junfu City, has become the main channel for business logistics in Kanto and Kansai.

In Hokuriku Road, because of the turmoil caused by the Zongzong, Kaga and Etsuchu have always been one after another, resulting in restless trade routes and the decline of commerce.

Shiba Yoshigin went to Echigo as an envoy, and along the Hokuriku Road persuaded Echizen Tsuruga's Asakura family, Noto Hatakeyama's family, and Echigo Uesugi's family.

With the help of the seaport trade that already existed, skipping the Kaga country and some parts of China that had been controlled by Muzong, and re-opening the Hokuriku Road trade route.

Echizen Tsuruga Port, Noto Nanao Port, and Echigo Naoetsu are the three fulcrums of Hokuriku Road's commercial road shipping.

Now there is civil strife in the Noto Hatakeyama family, and Nanao Castle is out of the control of Hatakeyama Yoshizuna.Merchants involved in logistics must be heartbroken and have to re-evaluate the risks of taking the Hokuriku Road business route.

It is not impossible to go directly from Tsuruga Port to Naoetsu.But without the transfer station Nanao Port, merchant ships have to increase their food and drinking water and reduce their cargo, and the cost is much higher.

In addition, Hokuriku shipping has existed since ancient times, but Japan's shipbuilding technology is very general, and sea ships are more likely to be damaged by wind and waves.Without Nanao Port transit repair, the risk factor of shipping will also increase greatly.

Last year, Hokuriku Road’s trading route took [-]% of goods from Sakai Port, attracting the attention of a large number of nearby merchants.

Now is the time to make persistent efforts. Sakai Port Yoshino Takada has already expressed his determination to Yoshihiko Shiba to let [-]% of Kansai goods go to Hokuriku this year.

At this moment, Noto Hatakeyama's family lost its chain and civil strife broke out. How could Shiba Yoshigin not be angry.

Jinbaochang accepted Shiba Yoshiyin's conditions at the beginning, formed an alliance with Uesugi Terutora, and sent her back to China. The temptation of Hokuriku Road's business interests was a very important bargaining chip.

The profit of the Hokuriku Road trade route that Jinbaochang's post is to get goods from Yoshizuna Hatakeyama at Nanao Port.Shiba Yoshihiro is in charge, and the goods are subsidized by Jinbaojia at a low price.

With the low-priced products from Nanao Port, Jinbo Changjo can benefit from buying the samurai family in Yuezhong, and have enough money and food to attack the Shiina family and take strict precautions against the Etsuchu Issouzong.

It is she who sits firmly in Yuezhong, so that the west of Echihou country can be peaceful, and she can concentrate on preparing for the Kanto Raiders.

Now Yoshizuna Hatakeyama has lost Nanao Castle and the goods at Nanao Port.What did the chief of the Jinbao do to stabilize Yuezhong, of course he jumped in a hurry.

If the situation between Vietnam and China is corrupt, how can Echigo send troops to the Kanto Plain with peace of mind.

What the hell, I'm really afraid of something!
Shiba Yoshihiro was distraught and trembling with anger.

The Noto Hatakeyama family has been going downhill over the years, and the governor of the family, Hatakeyama Yoshizuna, has lost power. He can only guard the residence city, and Nanao Castle is not lost.

However, as soon as the Hokuriku Road trade route opened, the commercial profits of Nanao Castle's Shimoko Town increased greatly, which would inevitably stimulate the Noto Hatakeyama vassal group.

Hatakeyama Yoshizuna, this idiot, actually used the most drastic means to solve the problem.She directly killed the leading official in the retainer group, which caused a fierce backlash and was driven out of Nanao City.

The Shimoetsu Shinbata Rebellion is imminent, and the civil strife in the Notohatake family also affects the safety of the west of Echigo Kingdom.The Kanto strategy, which was supposed to start in the spring of next year, had to be suspended.

Yiyin's head was swollen, and he couldn't figure out his thoughts clearly.

Just after pressing the threat of the Shinano country in the south, the conflict between the two public tax rebates within Joetsu.Today, a new crisis broke out in the east and west directions of Echigo.

Why is it so difficult to do something serious in this Echigo country!What the hell is this place!
