A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Kodaira shook the piece of Kyoto paper in his hand. On it was written what Uncle Tsunari saw in Kyoto last month.

In fact, it was nothing serious. An Yunguo's eldest son, Maori Dianyuan, sent people to Beijing. I got close to the general, contacted him emotionally, and then sent him Iwami Gin to judge how much.

He received great praise from Ashikaga Yoshiteru and was given the word "Teru". Mori Motonari's direct grandson, Shaofu Taro Yuanfu, was named Maori Terumoto. The Mori clan's presence in the Western Kingdom continues to strengthen, and the war with the Nishi clan of Izumo Kingdom has reached its final moment.

Previously, Ashikaga Yoshiteru personally mediated the dispute between the Mori clan and the Nishi clan, but it was unsuccessful. Ashikaga Yoshiteru will join forces, and many people of the Nishi clan are very dissatisfied with the mediation of Iwami Ichikuni to the Mori clan.

Many Chinese people saw that the general was here to show his presence and that Nizi Yoshihisa himself was "weak", so they all changed their identities and joined the An Yun Mori clan.

Years ago, Mao Liyuan launched a large army to attack Bailu City in Yunzhou. Matsuda Chengbao only had 2,000 people. Wherever he could defeat Mao Liyuan, he would be ten times the enemy. Nizi's reinforcements were repelled again, and with no food and reinforcements, the city was finally defeated, and Maori's troops reached the foot of Tomita Castle.

The loss of White Deer Castle not only opened up the Nishi family's door, but also caused the most important port town of Izumo Kingdom, Mihoguan, to fall into the hands of the Mori family. This was not only a trade route for the Nishi family to obtain money from trade with North Korea, but also a route for purchasing Kinai grain from Wakasa.

Once the U.S. security clearance failed, Yunzhou was shaken! The Nishi clan was forced to gather the entire army to defend Tomita Castle on Mount Tsukiyama, while Motomoto led 35,000 soldiers, including Terumoto Mouri, Motoharu Yoshikawa, Motonaga Yoshikawa, and Takakage Kobayakawa, to surround Tomita Castle.

The Maori army was three times as powerful as the Nizi army, but was blocked at the Oko Moriguchi, Shiotaniguchi and Sugayaguchi under Tomita Castle. Now there is a fierce battle. After all, the Nizi family has ruled Izumo for three generations, and the reputation of the Yin Yang Taishou has been passed down for more than eighty years, firmly blocking the Mori family from outside the city, unable to advance even an inch.

After reading this letter from Uncle Tsunari, Koheita stood up and looked outside the room with his hands behind his back. The process of the Mouri clan's unification of the Western Kingdom was already halfway through, and soon both Yunzhou and Hakushu would fall into the hands of the Mouri clan.

Time and time wait for nothing!

I don’t know if Yamauchi Yoshiharu in the city has received this news. Although it is the Western Kingdom far away, the rise of a force no less than Ouchi Yoshihiro should always touch his inner world.

If you want to go to the city and talk to him, the Takeda strategy that was planned last year still needs to be stepped up. Otherwise, while others are expanding their power, the Yamauchi family will be controlled by others.

…

When I entered the city, I found that my old father-in-law, Harumiya Hosokawa, and Isshiki Miyauchi were both there. They were also talking about something with Yamauchi Yoshiharu, looking a little serious.

"Heita-chan, what's the point of going to the city?" Yamauchi Yoshitari was talking to Heita-chan and asked his attendants to get something.

"Report to Hamamatsu-den, have you heard about the dispute between Mori and Nizi in the Western Kingdom?" Koheita hurriedly bowed his head and saluted the three bosses.

"Huh? You also know? I am discussing this matter with Miyauchi and Harugong." After saying that, Yamauchi Yoshiharu handed over a document.

Koheita took it and took a look. It was similar to what Uncle Tsunato passed to him, except that Yamauchi Yoshiharu's was more detailed.

It also states the siege generals and their respective forces of each Maori side, and the tribes and retainers of each of the Nizi side's attacks.

Xiaoping took a closer look and found that a name that should be very famous did not appear on this document. I think Yamanaka Shikanosuke Yukimori, one of the Ten Nisukes, is not a general yet. As for the story of Luer swearing to Yueer that he is willing to endure all kinds of hardships, it probably hasn't happened yet.

But it’s normal to think about it. His father, Mikawa Morimitsuyuki, was close to the Shingu party nun, Kunikisa, and his son. Since the New Palace Party was eliminated by Nizi Qingjiu, the Yamanaka clan naturally did not receive much reuse and trust.

"The rise of Mori Dian is right in front of us!" Koheita returned the document to Yamauchi Yoshiharu.

"Koheita, do you think Mori Nomiya will raise troops to attack Luo after seizing Yunzhou and Hakushu?" Hosokawa Harumiya asked on behalf of Yamauchi Yoshiharu and Isshiki Miyauchi.

In fact, the obstacle to the Mori clan going up to Luo was not too strong. The Mimura clan in Bitchu began to connect with the Mori clan in order to fight against the Sho clan, the acting official of the Nizi clan in Bichu. Now that Bichu has fallen into the hands of the Mimura clan, the Mori clan can pass smoothly.

And Bizen's Urakami Munekage was originally a retainer of the Harima Akamatsu clan, but of course he has now succeeded in defeating him and became a daimyo. However, due to the cycle of nature and unfavorable retribution, the Urakami clan is also faced with the chaos of being conquered by their retainer Ukita clan.

As for Harima, all the heroes had already stood side by side, and the Akamatsu clan's dominance could only be described as "hehe". After Harima, you will reach Settsu. Is it close to you?

What's more, the Mori clan also had a large-scale naval force to cooperate, and the waterways in Setouchi were extremely convenient.

Just ask!

"From my point of view, I'm afraid it won't work." In addition to a general understanding of history, Xiaoping Tai can also use reality to explain.

"The legitimate son of Mori Nomatsu, Mori Dazan, has died. In order to prevent internal strife in the family, he has appointed his grandson, Shaofu Taro Mori, as his successor. Unfortunately, Shao Fu Taro, Mori is only thirteen years old and has no prestige. Mori Nomashi is over seventy years old. Time is running out. If there is no provocation, there will be chaos in the Maori family."

"Moreover, the Maori family has never had a family background, but the people of the small country of Yunzhou are now in Kedingfang, Chang, Yun, Ji, Bei, Shi, Bo, Yun, Zhu and other countries. They seem to be extremely powerful, but in fact they have very few ministers. "There are so many people in Tiaoliang country. If they are not Maoli Dianwu, it would be difficult to mix them together."

Xiao Pingtai is not optimistic about the Maori family of the National People's Congress at all. Unless Maori Yuan will die, his life will be extended for twenty years. Otherwise, it would be almost impossible for the Maori family to make a big difference.

"What Koheita said makes sense. The Mouri family is far less deep-rooted than the Ouchi family tree. Now it's just gold and jade outside." Isshiki Miyauchi was the first to express his approval.

"However, nowadays many famous families are perishing, and there are also many usurpers and evildoers. In order to unite the country's tycoons, Maori Dianmen must not go without a war for a day, as the future is extremely unpredictable."

Hosokawa Harumiya believed that the Maori family in the National People's Congress coalition government must continue to expand during the war, transfer conflicts, and enhance strength. Otherwise, the country would definitely not be able to keep gathering together. Who knows if their family would really dare to go crazy and attack Kyoto if they were forced to do so.

Yamauchi Yoshiharu nodded from time to time, but he was still undecided about whether the Mori family should go to Luo.

"I don't know what Shinshu's opinion is?" He also wanted to hear his son's opinion.

"Why hasn't His Highness Shinshu returned home yet?" Xiaoping Tai was also surprised. Logically speaking, he has been away for a month. Now that the wheat has been put into the warehouse, it's time to come back.

"His Royal Highness went here to negotiate a lot with the officials of the imperial court, which may have delayed the process."

"The decree regarding the appointment of the three senior officials in Hamamatsu-den has not yet been received. All good things must be hard to come by."

Isshiki Miyauchi and Hosokawa Harumiya thought the problem was not big, but Koheita felt something was wrong.
