A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Yamauchi Yoshiho's "righteous speech" was recognized by many Yamauchi feudal lords, and he was so insightful at a young age.

Everyone praised the Yamauchi family for producing heroes from generation to generation, and even the deceased Yamauchi Izumo Mamoru was pulled out to pay tribute.

Of course, Chief Accountant Yamauchi who proposed the motion inevitably left a comment in many people's minds that he was "inferior to Brother No". Yamauchi Yoshiharu was wise, powerful, and merciful. His younger brother, Chief Accountant Yamauchi, was a harsh man who competed with soldiers for profit. Fortunately, he did not become the head of the family.

The citizen representatives eventually dispersed, and the year's citizens' elections ended.

In addition to Yamauchi Yoshiho gaining a wave of popularity, the biggest surprise came from Kawabe Ubei Second Lieutenant Nobu, also known as Heiroku, who had just returned from Izu Country.

The most powerful person in the entire Yamauchi family who planned to audit the accounts was not Heita Xiao, but Heiroku, who was a serious soy sauce shop clerk. The Yamauchi family will send an accountant to be stationed at Hamamatsu Port to verify the customs and commercial revenue from Hamamatsu Port being transported into the Yamauchi gold depository, and to verify the accounts every six months.

He served the Yamauchi family for six years, and his loyalty was rewarded with the best. He was promoted from Heita's retainer to join the Yamauchi clan's banner clan, and officially became a samurai directly under the Yamauchi clan.

At the same time, he was promoted to the post of Hamamatsu Advocate and Fuzhi County Secretary. He was given an additional salary of 220 yuan and was supported by 30 people. Stationed in Hamamatsu Port, supervising customs taxation.

He became the second former Shikoji retainer to join the rank of intermediate retainer of the Yamauchi clan after Kawabe Iekichi (Akichi).

Motoharu Kobayashi, the former minister of Hamamatsu Castle Town who was responsible for collecting Nanban ships, got a new appointment by chance and went to Enshuhama, which was still a fishing village at this time, to organize the Yamauchi family's ship repair shop and boatman training school.

Efforts were made to provide care and maintenance for ships trading in Hamamatsu, as well as to train shipbuilding talents and naval forces.

Since then, the Yamauchi family's financial situation has been in chaos. After several twists and turns, it has finally emerged from the precarious situation. Stable financial hematopoietic function and a powerful war credit department simultaneously entered the Yamauchi clan's war machine, providing a steady stream of powerful support for future wars.

"It's better to raise him up now." Nagata Tokumoto put down Xiaopingta's hand and told him.

That's right, at the military mobilization meeting a month ago, Xiaopingta suffered from abdominal pain and fainted. So he was rushed to Komaba Hot Spring to recuperate and try to treat his increasingly serious stomach disease.

"What exactly is the disease?"

"I always have gastrointestinal problems, and I can no longer work hard. I have to keep them warm and nourished for many years before it can be relieved."

"Gastritis? (Stomach cancer?)" Xiaopingta asked tentatively.

"If it was gangrene, I would have been bedridden and unable to speak. How could it be so serious?" Nagata Tokumoto couldn't help but laugh and asked Koheita.

"That's a small thing. I will pay attention to my diet and not drink alcohol in the future." Xiaoping Taiyi thought the same thing. If it was a malignant tumor, he would have been lying down long ago, and he would not live as usual as he does now.

"Although it's not gangrene, please be patient and recuperate. Komaba Onsen is very nice."

"I know." Mrs. Xiaoping agreed nonchalantly.

Nagata Tokumoto sighed, reluctantly picked up the medicine box and left the Japanese room.

Next he walked in were Aji and Murakami Yoshimitsu. Since Heita became ill, they would come to Komaba every other day to convey various news about Yamauchi to Heita.

"The peace talks between His Highness Komakiyama of Owari and the Saito clan were established, and His Highness Mino Saito was released."

Oda Nobunaga finally captured Inabayama Castle!

Yes, news came from Oda Nobunaga a month ago that the Yamauchi clan hoped to mobilize three thousand people to cooperate with his uncle Toyama Kagehito to take the Nakasen Road and attack Inabayama Castle from the side.

It was originally agreed that Koheita, who was in charge of the diplomatic succession of the Oda clan, would serve as the general and mobilized 3,000 people to support Oda Nobunaga.

But Kodaira fainted, so in the end, it was Hosokawa Saime and Yamauchi Yoshiho who worked together to send troops to Inabayama Castle.

With the power of suppressing Kitaise, Niwa Nagahide and Kinoshita Hideyoshi jointly mobilized and persuaded the current Saito family retainers in Mino to surrender. Before Oda Nobunaga's soldiers arrived, the Nakano crowd was shaken.

Osawa Jirozaemon, the lord of Unuma Castle, was the first to surrender. As a brave general known in Nakano, he participated in the Battle of New Ghana and bravely attacked the Oda army. His surrender dealt a heavy blow to Nakano's people, and the person who persuaded him to surrender was Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who was famous for his eloquence.

The lord of Saruzata Castle, Tajimi Osamu, was originally planning to defend the castle and make a last-ditch resistance. Unexpectedly, Unuma Castle surrendered without a fight. The defense was in chaos and he was forced to abandon the city and leave.

The Lord of Kajida Castle, Sato Tadano, and the Lord of Yoneda Castle, Hieda Tadamasa, looked down upon the wind, and the outcome of the war soon fell to Oda Nobunaga.

When Hosokawa Saime and Yamauchi Giho arrived, the Oda army was launching its final offensive on Inabayama.

Tajimi Xiu joined the last group of loyal samurai and launched a desperate offensive against the Oda army. Under the Oda army's huge numerical advantage and iron cannon fire, hundreds of them died in the battle.

In the end, it was known as the most impenetrable mountain castle in the world. It was run by three generations of the Saito family and was built on the mountain. Inabayama Castle, a fortified city surrounded by three turns, only had less than 2,000 people left to defend it.

Kinoshita Hideyoshi, the retainer of the Oda clan, with the help of "Buddha Heart Shigesuke" Horio Yoshiharu, broke the Inabayama Gaimaru, and Inabayama was shaken.

In the end, Saito Ryuuki couldn't resist, so he asked two big bosses, Asakura Yoshikage and Ashikaga Yoshiaki, to mediate with the messenger Akechi Jubei Mitsuhide. Inabayama opened the city without blood, and the soldiers surrendered to avoid death. Saito Ryuuki was released from the country and was not allowed to return to Mino Country.

As soon as Ryuuki left, Fuwa Koji, Endo Keitaka, Takei Yuan, Nonomura Masashige, Hachiya Yorotaka, and Nishio Kokyou all chose to surrender. Only a handful of people, such as Saito Mataemon and others, chose to continue the fight and were eventually defeated. Directly exterminate.

Meino Xiping!

"Doctor Meinong was defeated..."

Xiaopingtai stood up and sighed sadly. Owari and Mino, the five northern Ise counties, suppressing Nishi Mikawa Matsudaira Ieyasu, and marrying Ehoku Asai Nagamasa, Oda Nobunaga is already one of the most powerful daimyo in the world.

The fateful meeting between Akechi Mitsuhide and Oda Nobunaga happened unexpectedly, and he was deeply impressed by Oda Nobunaga's magnanimity. Akechi Mitsuhide would persuade Hosokawa Fujitaka, Wada Weimasa and others to persuade Ashikaga Yoshiaki to give up all unrealistic ideas.

Then he took refuge in Oda Nobunaga, allowing Oda Nobunaga to obtain the rightful title of Joe Luo Kyoto.

Oda Nobunaga gained power and territory, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki was able to immediately go to Luo to take over the position of shogun. Relying on Oda Nobunaga's powerful force, it is not impossible to re-establish the shogunate.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki, who has a long way to go to Luo, will eventually choose to believe in Akechi Mitsuhide's explanation, believe in Oda Nobunaga, and go to seek refuge.
