Chapter 2025 Rearing the Arms for War
Martial law was enforced in the north of Daban City, and Zeng Yi and the others found that they could not get out because they were late for a while. Because of them, but the old guy Toyotomi Hideyoshi, finally died!
Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the hero of the island country, was born in a poor family. He lost his father when he was eight years old. He remarried with his mother and became an oil bottle. He didn't even have a last name.Because of his poor life and thin body when he was young, he was given the title of "Monkey".Hideyoshi was not reconciled to such a poor life. Having nothing, he threw himself into the torrent of vigorous annexation wars at the age of 20, and became a pawn under Oda Nobunaga's subordinates. As a result, he prospered. What he lost was the shackles, and what he gained was the country.Hideyoshi quickly showed his talents with his intelligence and ability honed in the suffering life, and was appreciated by Oda Nobunaga.First, Hideyoshi served as the guardian of Kyoto, and later he was granted a large territory by Oda Nobunaga, ranking among the daimyo.Since then, Hideyoshi has followed Nobunaga through life and death and has repeatedly made outstanding military exploits.

Hideyoshi went out and was besieged, and Oda Nobunaga led his troops to rescue.On the way, he camped at the Honnoji Temple in Kyoto. Mitsuhide Akechi, who was usually oppressed too much, suddenly rebelled and surrounded Oda Nobunaga in the temple. Suddenly, Oda Nobunaga was defenseless, had no reinforcements, and was unwilling to be captured by his retainers. In the end, he set himself on fire.A generation of heroes died in this way.When Hideyoshi learned that, he quickly returned to the army, crusaded against the rebels, quickly defeated the wise army, and killed the rebels.At this time, Oda Nobunaga's great cause of unification has just been half completed. Of all 66 countries, Oda has already won half of the country, and the rest of the unfinished business is completed by Hideyoshi.After Hideyoshi killed Akechi Mitsuhide, he regarded himself as Nobunaga's heir, which caused Nobunaga's generals to rebel.Hideyoshi successively suppressed the resistance of Nobunaga's sons and important ministers, continued the unification war, and finally basically unified the whole country.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who came from a humble background, worked hard, established a great cause of unifying Japan, trapped by his own background, he tried his best to prove himself all his life, but at the peak of his career, he mistakenly started the war against Korea and violated the interests of the Central Plains In the end, this war finally became a fatal blow to him, making his life's achievements come to naught, and his life and family declined.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi died, and the stone that held Tokugawa Ieyasu and others finally shattered.Daban City was suddenly under martial law. When Tokugawa Ieyasu and others heard the news, they immediately realized that Toyotomi Hideyoshi might be dead. , An endless stream rushed to Daban.

The news of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's death cannot be concealed at all, and Ishida Mitsunari does not have the ability to conceal it. Even if he wants to conceal it, as long as Zeng Yi and the pro-military captain's mansion are present, the news cannot be concealed. Yi will naturally send someone to speak for him.Soon the news of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's death spread throughout the island country. When the big names in the island country heard the news, they were happy that no one was suppressing them, and sad that the unified island country would become chaotic again.

Zeng Yi and the others previously estimated that once Toyotomi Hideyoshi died, the island country would definitely have civil strife. Now that Toyotomi Hideyoshi is dead, the island country has become calmer, and even the saliva attacks between each other a few days ago have suddenly stopped.But Zeng Yi knew that this was just the calm before the storm?

The conflict has not yet started, but all the big names in the island country have started a new round of preparations. Zeng Yi and others can't wait for them to start the war. It clarified the contradictions among the islanders.

Soon, the issue of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's successor began to be discussed in various parts of the island country. Toyotomi Hideyoshi did not leave any descendants. The so-called heir naturally needs to be found among Toyotomi Hideyoshi's subordinates. Toyotomi Hideyoshi's former subordinates, five big bosses, except Because of the Korean War, there were supporters other than the Ukita Hide family who lost power, but the most vocal ones were Tokugawa Ieyasu and Uesugi Kekatsu.

The two have indeed inherited most of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's strength. Tokugawa Ieyasu was the first to act. Through the introduction of a wealthy businessman in the island country, he let his son, six male Tadaki, marry one of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's former daimyos. , Date Masamune's eldest daughter Goro Hachihime.At that time, Zhonghui was only eight years old, and Goro Hachihime was only six years old. This was undoubtedly a political marriage that Ieyasu implemented for the sake of future political strategies.In addition, Tokugawa Ieyasu also adopted a nephew, Man Tianji, the daughter of the same daimyo Matsudaira Yasunari, as an adopted daughter, who was betrothed to Masayuki, the son of another daimyo Fukushima Masanori; For Toyotomi Hideyoshi's retainer Hachisuga's son Toyo.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi's series of marriages made his power rapidly expand. However, in order to prevent the daimyos from forming cliques, Hideyoshi specially ordered "no intermarriage between daimyos at will."Tokugawa Ieyasu's behavior clearly violated this rule.Knowing this, Toyotomi Hideyoshi and those who intend to fight for the hegemony are of course very angry.Let's all take action, unite vertically and horizontally, and expand our own strength.

The civil war on the island is imminent.However, the first fights were not Tokugawa Ieyasu and Shangshan Jingsheng, but several generals under Toyotomi Hideyoshi who ran back from North Korea. These people were not weak at first, but they lost a lot in the Korean War. Big forces, since the Korean War, you people have held grudges against Ishida Mitsunari and other Wenzhi factions, and it is also to restore your own power. Toyotomi Hideyoshi once went to seven generals to jointly attack Ishida Mitsunari, and Ishida Mitsunari did not What commanding ability, naturally, can't beat those veteran generals, and Sancheng who is desperate has no choice but to take his subordinates and hide in Jiakang's place for protection.Although nothing major happened in the end, Sancheng had to accept Ieyasu's order and live in seclusion in his own city, Zawa Mountain.

Those military generals did not expect that their actions did not reap any benefits, but they made Tokugawa Ieyasu's power strengthen again.By this time, Tokugawa Ieyasu had already controlled more than half of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's former power.

Although Tokugawa Ieyasu is still not as good as Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but he is currently the strongest daimyo in the island country.After that, Tokugawa Ieyasu directly led the army and entered Toyotomi Hideyoshi's lair, Osaka Castle, and began to officially replace Toyotomi Hideyoshi to perform government affairs.

Tokugawa Ieyasu's actions undoubtedly stimulated other ambitious daimyos. Daimyos from all over the world began to build new cities, renovate the inner cities, prepare roads, hoard food and grass, buy weapons, gather ronin, and a series of military preparations. .
