Chapter 702 Restless Tokaido

The Shiba family can't hide the matter of Nanao Port in Hokuriku Province, and the merchants in Tokaido will also use this to launch a new business war, making the caravans that have been stunned by the earth warehouse copper coins hesitate again.

The Tokaido is an old road that has been walked for many years, and it is very stable.Although Hokuriku has many subsidies, is it safe?No one has a bottom in their hearts.

Imai Zongjiu tried his best, but he still couldn't stop the companies from changing their course, and the share of Hokuriku Road in the spring will definitely drop.

In this regard, Takada Yono has no choice but to hope that the lord of Echigo will find a way to bring Nanao Port back into the Hokuriku trade route as soon as possible.

Many merchants who manage the Tokaido trade route cheered and sneered at the nouveau riche of Shiba's family.

The way of heaven is good reincarnation, Takada Yono of the Shiba family has been high-profile for so long, can he be considered deflated?

From the point of view of the samurai, the commercial war in Sakai Port was like a group of fattened pigs humming.Watch a joke when you have time, but don't bother to pay attention when you don't have time.

At this time, Owari Komaki Mountain Castle at the western end of Tokaido, Oda Nobunaga also received a surprising news.

"Matsudaira Motoyasu took Dongsanhe? When did it happen?"

It was Niwa Changhide who came to report, she smiled wryly.

"It should have been in Xiaqiu, we were busy with the Meinong Raiders and didn't pay attention to the direction of Sanhe.

A while ago, I sent people to Sanhe to buy horses, but it turned out that His Highness Matsudaira was not in Okazaki Castle, and even several important officials could not find anyone, so I felt wrong.

Afterwards, many investigations were conducted and it was found that they had all gone to Dongsanhe.

It turned out that the spring broke out in the spring, and His Royal Highness Songping later cleaned up the retainers who believed in the Yixiang sect, and Dong Sanhe relaxed its guard.

Unexpectedly, His Highness Matsudaira was purging the interior while wooing the Toda family and the Xixiang family in Dongsanhe.

After Xia Harvest, he dispatched troops quickly, and caught the Dongsanhe Zhu family who were closely following the Imagawa family by surprise.

After the autumn harvest, His Royal Highness Songping used troops against the disobedient nobles of Dongsanhe, not giving them a chance to breathe. Now the entire Dongsanhe has been pacified. "

Oda Nobunaga sighed.

Matsudaira Motoyasu moved so fast that Oda Nobunaga had no time to pull her back.She must also be on guard against Oda Nobunaga, so she withdrew the news so as not to affect the unification of Mikawa Kingdom.

Before Oda Nobunaga led Owari Ichigoku, if Matsudaira Motoyasu took the Mikawa Kingdom, both sides would be the masters of the country.

In the Kiyosu Alliance, the situation where Oda is strong and loose is weak, will change, and Kansai, the ally of both sides, will move towards equality.

Now Matsudaira Motoyasu has succeeded and deceived Oda Nobunaga who devoted himself wholeheartedly to Mino country.

Fortunately, Oda Nobunaga's speed is also very fast, and he quickly won most of Mino, and the Oda family still maintains a strong position in the alliance.

Oda Nobunaga sneered.

"Since our people have seen through the arrangement, sister Songping should express something?"

Niwa Chohide laughed.

"Your Excellency Honda has been sent to Owari many times, and he is almost at Komakiyama Castle.

On behalf of His Highness Matsudaira, she came down to congratulate the Oda family on winning Mino, and informed the Matsudaira family of the good news of the unification of Sanhe.

The two alliances are back to back, and their forces have expanded together, which is really gratifying. "

Oda Nobunaga laughed, clapped his hands and said.

"For the prosperity of the two martial arts, congratulations!"

Her heart was cold, she had to trap Matsudaira Motoyasu of Sanhe to prevent her from growing stronger.

The Oda family is going to seize the world in the near future, and they must not let the back pad of the Mihe Kingdom become a sharp knife to stab themselves in the back.

Oda Nobunaga wanted to restrain Matsudaira Motoyasu, who was low-key and forbearing, but decisive.

On the other side of the Tōkaidō, Takeda Harunobu, who was spying on the Suruga country, was beaten by Hojo's house.

Takeda Iefuyu is conducting a winter military meeting, discussing the Suruga strategy after the beginning of spring.

After Uesugi Takeda signed the Kawanakajima Peace, the Takeda family turned their attention to the south again.

This change cannot escape the attention of the two southern families, the Imagawa family and the Hojo family, who paid close attention to the Kawanakajima war.

It was a temptation for Takeda Harunobu to send someone to the Hojo family to contact Yasushi, governor of the Hojo family, to discuss sharing the Suruga Kingdom.Sure enough, he was rejected without hesitation.

At the council meeting, Nobushige Koyamada hesitated a little and said.

"Your Highness, His Highness Hojo has seriously warned my family. Any attack on the land of Suruga is a betrayal of the allies, and the Hojo family will never sit idly by."

Nobushige Koyamada was really aggrieved.

Her family's territory is at the forefront of the Takeda family facing the Hojo family. When the two sides were in harmony, she took a lot of benefits from the Hojo family, and was even included in the Hojo family.

In other words, she took the money and food from the Hojo family and became the dog of the Hojo family.

But she is also the most uncomfortable when the Takeda family wants to turn against the Hojo family.The Oyamada family has too deep a relationship with the Kai families, and they never dare to betray the Takeda family.

In this way, she became a mouse in the bellows, being driven around and blocked at both ends.

Before Takeda Harunobu could speak, Anayama Nobukun who was sitting down had already snorted coldly and cursed.

"The Hojo family is really a family of giri, loyal to the covenant, and convincing."

At this point, the audience couldn't help bursting into laughter.

Oyamada Nobushige glanced at Anayama Nobukun resentfully, and the relationship between the two parties has deteriorated very badly recently.

The Anayama family and the Imagawa family are separated by the Fuji River, and it has not been a day or two since they coveted the land on the opposite side.

Contrary to the Koyamada family, the Anayama family most hoped that the Takeda family would go south, and they were even willing to be the pioneers.

Anama Nobukun feared that Takeda Harunobu would be blocked by Hojo Ujiyasu's righteous words, and his words were rude, pointing directly at the shamelessness of the Hojo family.Speaking of betraying the alliance, the Hojo family is the instigator.

The three alliances of Imagawa, Takeda, and Hojo are the result of a compromise between the three parties after a rather tortuous running-in period.

When the Kanto General rebelled, the shogunate had a headache for the capricious Kamakura Ashikaga family in Kanto, and sent the Ise woman of the Ise family, the deacon of the government office, to Kanto to deal with the Kamakura Ashikaga family.

Ise women have no food and no soldiers, and the starting point for taking down Izu country is to rely on the support of the Imagawa family to start a business in Higashi Suruga.

The Imagawa family has always been close to the shogunate, and when the Kwantung General made a rebellion, the first thing he had to open up was the Tokaido, so that Shangluo could seize the world.

In other words, when the Kanto rebellion occurred, the first to be beaten was the Imagawa family of Tokaido.Her family is very concerned about bringing down the Kamakura Ashikaga family, contributing money and effort.

The Imagawa family supported the Ise women to take Izu, the place where the Taira family exiled the first general Minamoto Yoritomo.

It was also the place where the Hojo family sent their son to Minamoto Yoshimo, conceived and gave birth to a daughter, and called on Bando Hahei to follow her in rebellion.

In order to gain momentum, Ise women impersonated the Kamakura shogunate, which made a fortune in Izu, to be in power.

After the three generations of heroes of the Hojo family defeated the Kanto General Kamakura Ashikaga, occupied the two countries of Izu and Sagami, and penetrated into the Kanto Plain.

The Suruga Imagawa family has also changed from a supporter to a hidden danger behind them.The focus of the dispute between the two sides was Suruga Country, Fuji County, and Omiya Castle.

In the north, Takeda Harunobu's mother Takeda Nobutora unified the Kai Kingdom, and was facing a decision of going north or going south.

In the end, she chose to go north to fight hard in Shinano country, but as a result, the country's strength was withered.Takeda Harunobu joined forces with his retainers to drive away Takeda Nobutora, and she went to Imagawa's house to seek refuge, which caused a dispute between the two families.

The main point of the confrontation between the two sides is also Omiya Castle, which involves the unique terrain of the Suruga Kingdom.
