Chapter 980 The broken system

Uesugi Xianzheng said it sadly, and Nagao wept when he heard it.

The Yamauchi Uesugi family has been defeated by Uesugi Constitutional Government, and the ruling system of the Kamakura Ashikaga family and the Uesugi family has completely collapsed.

The Hojo family Yasushi took Ashikaga Yoshishi to form a new Kanto general and Kanto management system, and there is no place for the Uesugi family in the mountains to stand in the Kanto.

Uesugi Xianzheng either died silently outside the Kanto Plain, or found a powerful samurai daimyo to continue the name of the Uesugi family in the mountains and avenge the Hojo family.

The Uesugi Terutora she chose was indeed powerful, and the Echigo army entered the Kanto Plain forcefully, seriously threatening the Hojo family.

And Ueno, those grasshoppers who betrayed their lord, at this moment remembered their identity as Uesugi's retainers in the mountains.

Hojo Shiyasu's extermination of the two Uesugi families is not the norm for the samurai family.On the contrary, they were afraid of the influence of the Uesugi family and made radical actions.

Come to think of it, Hojo Shiyasu was also regretting it at this time.If she had left some leeway for the two Uesugi families, she wouldn't have attracted Echigo's hungry wolf and led to today's passive situation.

The Wu family group is not a family business of one family, but is composed of countless small family businesses under the name of a family.

Hojo Ujiyasu could cut off two of Uesugi's direct branches with one blow, but he couldn't cut off two families, accumulating two hundred years of samurai connections.

The heir of a peerless person is the greatest hatred. The name of the Uesugi family in Yamauchi is now in the hands of Uesugi Terutora, which can leverage the Kanto Plain and add countless troubles to the Hojo family.

Hojo Ujiyasu is willing to treat the new Kanto general Ashikaga Yoshiji kindly, and he also learned from the lessons of the Uesugi family in the mountains and did not give the foreign invaders a chance to provoke trouble.

Nagao Dangchang let out a breath and said.

"I understand, I will be loyal to the new Yamauchi Uesugi Family Governor, and continue to be my loyal minister.

Just please take care of your health and see the day when the Hojo family's hegemony dies. "

Uesugi Xianzheng smiled, with a trace of resentment in his smile.

"Don't worry, I will live a good life, seeing Hojo Ujiyasu's family business decline, it is as painful as me.

You have to follow Uesugi Terutora wholeheartedly, Ashikaga Castle is right under her nose, and you won't be allowed to jump left and right.

She may not be able to influence the two countries of Xiazong and Hitachi, but she can still control the neighboring countries of Ueno.

Don't provoke her, she has a bad temper. "

"Hi!"

Ashikaga Castle is located in the west of Mount Ashio. Although it is included in the territory of Shimono Country, it is actually more closely related to Ueno Country. The best choice for Nagao is to follow Terotora Uesugi.

Seeing that Nagao was the leader and listened to persuasion, Uesugi Xianzheng finally felt relieved.

The Nagao family in Ashikaga Castle is one of the few retainers who are loyal to her, and she doesn't want this family to end in a miserable way.

Uesugi Terutora is coquettish and domineering, few people can persuade her.This time, Nagao has already disobeyed her for Uesugi's constitutional government when she became the chief, and she must behave well in the future to resolve this knot in her heart.

Otherwise, she will definitely settle accounts after autumn.

Thinking of the few people who could persuade Uesugi Terutora, Uesugi Xianzheng's heart moved, and he said to Nagao.

"Damn Chang Ji, have you ever heard of Shiba Kenshin?"

Nagao Dangchang nodded.

"I know a little bit, General Ashikaga's imperial palace, the strange man of the samurai family who revived his family business.

I heard that he is planning to go south with His Highness Uesugi Terutora, as an envoy of the shogunate, to Kamakura Tsuruoka Hachimangu Shrine to participate in the inauguration ceremony of the Kanto governor. "

Seeing Nagao thinking about his words, Uesugi Xianzheng couldn't help pointing at her and laughing.

"You, there are also times when you are dishonest."

Nagao Dangchang smiled awkwardly.

She can be a loyal minister of Uesugi's family in the mountains, hold grievances for Uesugi's constitutional government, and play a little emotional with Uesugi Terotora.But she didn't want to get involved in the entanglement between the Shogun and the Kwantung General.

The dispute between the Ashikaga family and the Kamakura Ashikaga family is a dispute between Kanto and Kansai, which is related to the fundamental interests of the eight states of the samurai.

Hojo Ujiyasu's call to arms is to seize this point and pursue it fiercely, and to describe Uesugi Terutora as a running dog of the shogunate and a vanguard of the Kansai invasion of the Kanto.

This is also an important reason why various families in the Kanto Plain are lukewarm towards Uesugi Terutoro and hesitate to stand in line.

There are many famous families in the Kanto region with a long history.Yoshihiro Shiba set up a Kanto service office in Echigo, reminding them of Minamoto Yoritomo who set up a service office in Kamakura and became the first shogun.

General Ashikaga's Imperial Palace returned to Kanto and set up a servant. What does it mean?Is it really going to attack Guan Bazhou and reorganize the Yutai people in Kanto?
The Ashikaga shogunate never really controlled the world, and the Ashikaga general was only recognized by the Samurai group as the nominal leader.

At the beginning, Takashi, the first Ashikaga general, was defeated and fled to Kyushu Island.In the name of Hanoi Genji's descendants and the pillars of the Wu family, she gathered the Kansai imperial family and fought back to Kyoto.

In other words, the strength of the Ashikaga family is insufficient, and General Ashikaga is purely a knife for dividing pork.

During the establishment of the Ashikaga Shogunate, the largest piece of pork was distributed to the Kansai imperial family.The Kanto region, especially the royal families of the traditional Guanbazhou, did not get much benefit.

General Ashikaga enfeoffed the Ten Kingdoms of Kanto to the Kamakura Ashikaga family in order to restrict the eight states of Kanto.As a result, the Kwantung general system, which is on the edge of the guardian system, was formed.

With the Kamakura Ashikaga family and the Uesugi family as the core, the Kanto generals and Kanto governors are used to dominate the ten Kanto countries.

Except for the Kai Kingdom, which is closed in the mountains, most Kanto samurai families have become accustomed to playing in this system after two hundred years, until the Hojo family came to disrupt the situation.

Yasugan of the Hojo family killed the two Uesugi families, and pulled the new Kanto general Ashikaga Yoshishi to form a new Kanto general system.

It is not in accordance with the rules to replace the Uesugi family with the Hojo family as the head of the Ashikaga family in Kamakura and the governor of the Kanto.

The society of the Wu family is strictly hierarchical, the dragon begets the dragon, the phoenix begets the phoenix, and the son of the mouse is responsible for digging holes.

Ise women can replace the Uesugi family as the No. [-] person in Kanto by pretending to be Hojo Miaozi. Isn't this a mess?
The well-known families in the Kanto region also have to consider their own interests. What if the young Wu family below follow suit, and the etiquette collapses?

But the Hojo family is too good at fighting, and they fight steadily without rushing.The Kanto families can't beat them, so they can only hold their noses and surrender first, and talk about it later.

At this time, Echigo's Uesugi Terotora played a move that broke the rules even more.She went directly to Luo, and went to General Ashikaga in Kyoto to ask for the consular post in Kanto.

According to the rules, the leader of the Kanto must be the governor of the Uesugi family, recognized by the Kanto general, and then succeeded at Kamakura Tsuruoka Hachiman Palace.

Yasushi Hojo broke the rules and pulled Yoshishi Ashikaga, the new general, to admit himself.

It was impossible for Uesugi Terutora to be recognized by the Hojo family's puppet General Kanto, so he simply went to Kyoto to find a bigger boss to admit himself, which broke another layer of rules.

You and I on both sides tore the Kwantung general system to pieces, leaving the Kwantung Plain samurai at a loss, which led to the current chaotic situation.
