A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Chapter 219 23. Tosho Ogami-kun appears

Kodaira was too arrogant, and after he settled down, he heard that the family of the Ogiri Uesugi clan, a famous Musashi family that had been extinct for many years, was actually revived. Uesugi Kensheng, who succeeded the Ogidani Uesugi clan, had entered Kawagoe Castle, the important town of Nanbu, and was led by Daidoji Masashige. and Ueda Asanao (yes, he was shameless enough to bring Matsuyama to Hojo) to "assist" him.

The family name of the Ogigiya Uesugi family is really useful. All the noble families in the Musashi area who had two ambitions suddenly came under the command of Uesugi Kensheng, and it was like a scene of continuous rise and fall.

This was not the end. Under the auspices of the Hojo clan, Uesugi Kensheng took the title of Musashi guardian and Kamakura deacon. At the same time, the news of the next Kanto leader, who had never been seen, was spread everywhere. The Uesugi Teruatora forces or pro-Uesugi Teruatora forces in Ueno, Shimono, Shimotsou, Kamesou, Hitachi and other countries were in great chaos for a while.

The biggest proof is that Hitachi Oda Castle's lord, who has the same blood as General Kyouchi Ashikaga, Oda Sanuki Morijiji fell to the Hojo clan through the intermediaries of Oishi Teru and Oyama Takatomo. (The main reason was mainly to obtain the support of the Hojo clan and attack Satake Yoshiaki, the lord of Hitachi Ota Castle who was close to Uesugi.)

Uesugi Terutora was so strong that he was so angry that he went to Beijing to have a showdown with Ashikaga Yoshiki. Let him immediately distribute the royal teachings to the Eastern Kingdom. From today on, the position of Kanto Governor can only be passed down within the Uesugi family, and the successor, that is, the adopted son of Uesugi Teruhora, is decided by himself.

Presumably the quarreling with each other will not end in ten days and a half. After all, the Hojo family also sent a lot of gold to Kyoto, and the Hojo family spent a lot of money to disgust Uesugi Teruhora.

However, this matter has nothing to do with Xiaoping Tai for the time being. No matter how chaotic Kanto is, it will not disrupt Yuanjiang. Xiaoping Tai's first priority is the governance of Yuanjiang Kingdom and the placement of Imagawa's adoptive relatives.

After all, as the legal son of Imagawa Yoshimoto, and the biggest excuse to attack Suruga in the future, Imagawa Yoshiuchi must declare his presence in a place close to Suruga Kingdom.

Of course, Yamauchi Yoshiharu also had instructions. His son was still young and Asahina Taicho had surrendered, so he would definitely not be at ease with him assisting Imagawa Yoshichichi.

Iwase Motomasa is loyal, but unfortunately he is not strong enough, so he can only be said to be helping Imagawa Yoshichichi. Uncle Tsunayoshi's prestige and power are quite good. As Futama Castle Dai, he is also the successor of Imakawa Yoshin. Koheita was placed in Ejiri as the back-officer of Tsuna Liang's uncle, one by one.

In this way, Imagawa's sworn relatives can be considered safe and sound after occupying Gaotian City. After this autumn, they will launch a military campaign to expand the city. He disgusted Takeda Harunobu anytime and anywhere on the border of Suruga Kingdom, and allowed him to spend three thousand gen every year to secretly support and win over the old Imagawa retainers of Suruga who were dissatisfied with the Takeda clan.

Everyone is very comfortable doing this kind of thing. You do it in the first grade and I do it in the fifteenth grade. The superficial peace with the Takeda family will not last long, this is the consensus of both parties.

Imagawa Yoshimoto's legacy is not just this, he also has a Mikawa Kingdom that is still in chaos. The retainers of the Yamauchi family are now struggling to rule almost two countries, and they will not try to expand their territory for a while. That kind of territory where all the country's wealthy families have no direct vassals would be useless.

Xiao Pingtai's eyes must have turned to Sanhe Country, as the situation in Dongsanhe calmed down unexpectedly quickly. Uden Changzhao united with the people of Higashi Mikawa to form an offensive and defensive alliance for the people of the country, and avoided the centralization of power through the collegial system, allowing the people of the country to temporarily cooperate closely.

As for Nishi Mikawa, the departure of Okabe Gennobu left a huge power vacuum. Imaoka, Takake, Ikeda, and even Okazaki Castle were all casually abandoned or handed over to the Oda family.

However, there is no prestigious and powerful lord in Xisanhe who can stand up and take the lead, and there is no eldest son among the dwarves. In addition, Nobunaga's brother Oda Nobhiro's ability was really poor, and given him such a good opportunity, he actually failed to expand his strength based on peace and win over the people of Mikawa.

Although Nobunaga was happy to see his brother's incompetence in not being able to seize such a good opportunity, he was also extremely troubled by Mikawa's chaotic situation. After the death of his father-in-law, Saito Douzan, a huge territory like Mino was waiting for him to seize. He really didn't like Mikawa's territory. However, the chaos in Mikawa will also affect southern Owari, so we cannot ignore it.

So after several considerations, Oda Nobuhiro was transferred from Anxiang City. Hirate's good son, Hirate Fanxiu, entered Anxiang City and became its lord.

In addition, among a bunch of rookies, Nobunaga chose a young man who was eight years younger than himself, a weakling named Matsudaira Ieyasu. As the lord of Okazaki Castle, since Matsudaira Ieyasu is the grandson of the treacherous villain Matsudaira Kiyoyasu, his reputation has long been bad in Mikawa, and he cannot rule without relying on Oda Nobunaga. Therefore, Oda Nobunaga was very relieved about this person, and even helped him represent a minor official of Mikawa Shou.

In addition to the fact that Matsudaira Ieyasu came from a family of rebels and had a very bad reputation, another point was that the Matsudaira family was just a rich man with three hundred dry lands on a hillside in Mikawa Country. Neither the Genji nor the Taira, just the blood of a pariah. In the Mikawa Kingdom, where the martial arts atmosphere is strong, he is just a thing that everyone sees and rides.

Last but not least, the internal strife in the Matsudaira family was extremely serious. When the great traitor Matsudaira Kiyoyasu was alive, he used the golden rice of the Imagawa clan and Imagawa clan Teru to suppress the Matsudaira clan and make him a Matsudaira clan. stand out.

But this Anxiang Matsudaira clan has even lost its own city, Anxiang City. Everyone can understand the scene. The remaining Matsudaira clan is divided into Nomi Matsudaira, Taketani Matsudaira, Fujii Matsudaira, Sakurai Matsudaira, Fukomi Matsudaira, Katahara Matsudaira and Oyue Matsudaira. As for the smaller and thinner Songping tributaries, they are countless, and they are really capable.

After the death of Matsudaira Kiyoyasu, the reason why the Matsudaira clan collapsed rapidly and was stepped on by ten thousand feet is also obvious. In addition to the Imagawa family's golden rice being cut off, there was also the revolt of the suppressed Mikawa Matsudaira families. Why do you, the Anxiang Matsudaira clan, become the boss? We are all from a poor background, and we rely on our ability to earn a living. Your godfather Imagawa of the peaceful Matsudaira family no longer wants you, and we are still afraid of you.

Therefore, Nobunaga continued to appoint Sakuma Nobumori as the Lord of Narumi Castle, and after Hirate Fanhide teamed up with Matsudaira Ieyasu who was monitoring Mikawa, he completely let go of Mikawa.

This unknown country warrior Matsudaira Ieyasu, who had only two or three retainers and a salary of 300 kiwan, entered Okazaki Castle and summoned the twenty-five men who had rebelled with his grandfather to become a qualified backdoor watchdog for Nobunaga.

Nobunaga couldn't see the level of this rookie for the time being, couldn't Koheita? Hearing the news that Yasushi Okazaki of the Matsudaira family had entered the city, Xiaoping was so shocked that his job dropped to the ground.
