Iga is connected to Omi, Yamato is connected to the southwest, Ise is divided by barren mountains to the east, and a little connected to the mountain city of Kyoto to the northwest.
It looks like a mountainous forest, but inside it is a small basin with a pleasant climate and rich products. There are also 100,000 dan of farmland, enough to support 40,000 to 50,000 people.
There are four openings in the forest. Kokaguchi in Omi, Shinzukiguchi in Yamashiro, Yamatoguchi in Yamato, and Kadachiguchi in Ise.
If you keep these openings, you can close the door and become a local bully. This is what the Hattori family thought at the time.
During the Yatsushiro period, the governor of the Niki family was fatuous and incompetent, and the Hattori family's merits as a public favor were instead given to others.
The Hattori family governor was an outstanding figure for a while, but he couldn't swallow it and drove the guardian Niki family out of Iga country.
At that time, it was the Rebellion of the Eighth Shogun of the Shogunate. Although the Shogunate was powerful, each family was busy fighting each other, killing their own family members, so they had no time to take care of such trivial matters as the Iga Kingdom.
The Yatsushiro shogun simply sealed off the country and settled the matter until later. This letter lasts for decades.
At first, the Niki family expected the shogunate to make decisions for her family.
But later on, the shogunate gradually weakened due to internal fighting. The people of Iga country did not jump out of Iga country to provoke, and simply ignored this troublesome matter.
The shogunate ministers whose territory was close to Iga country gradually discovered a way to make money, which was to sell daily necessities to the people of Iga country at high prices.
After linking up with each other, they made a big profit and distributed some of the profits to the Hitaki family. The Niki family had already lost the country and was in ruins. They drank doves to quench their thirst and never mentioned the matter of Iga country again.
It just dragged on until today.
To the high-level martial artists above, this is just a trivial matter. But for the people of Iga Country, the country was under the pressure of Mount Tai, and it was a long dark night without any light.
At the beginning, the Hattori family governor was also high-spirited, conscious of his extraordinary talents, and looked down on the mediocre guardianship of the Niki family.
I think this is a matter of comparison between people. If it doesn't work, just leave me. But only when he became the head of his own family did he know the price Shengtian Banzi had to pay.
Is she facing a mediocre family governor Nimu? What she faced was the entire shogunate system, a samurai society in the Middle Ages. Although it was a loose, yet applicable ruling group in feudal society.
One person and one family versus a ruling group versus the entire society. What can you do, you can only despair.
Iga country has food, wood and minerals, so it should not be poor.
But with an order from the shogunate, the surrounding countries stopped contacting Iga. The shogunate at that time was in civil strife, not weak.
If you hit yourself with your fist, you can also hit others. Who dares not to listen. Iga was kicked out of the shogunate system and became an abandoned daughter in recent times.
People can't just have food to eat. Thousands of years of evolution have made human society a complex complex, and no one can live alone.
Human beings need transactions. It’s impossible not to eat salt, and it’s impossible not to wear clothes. Chinese people can only buy them at high prices.
Human beings need education. Without pen and paper, without books, without professors, the Iga Bushi Association became a group of savages.
Humans need prevention and treatment. There are no doctors, no medicines, and no communication. You can only rely on resistance for minor illnesses, but you have to wait for death for serious illnesses.
In short, the sky is falling.
From being unruly and unruly at the beginning, he turned into begging grandpa and grandma everywhere and wanting to be punished.
After running into walls everywhere, I realized that I had been isolated. What’s even more frightening is that isolating yourself has become a business, and it’s a very profitable business.
The warriors have interests, so who needs humanity?
Therefore, Iga Zhong used his life to work as a mercenary outside to earn a meager salary, and gritted his teeth to buy the necessities of life.
This day has passed for decades.
Niki Yoshimasa accompanied Yoshigan into Iga Country. There were several small villages outside Iga Mountain that belonged to the Niki family's territory.
Along the way, I introduced Yoshigan to the situation in Iga.
Although the Nimu family has been kicked out for many years, some news inside is still known. For Yiyin, it is very important.
Convincing the people of Iga to be loyal is the most important starting point for Yoshigan's battle. If there are no soldiers, there is still a fart war.
If you want the Iga people to be sincere enough to spend money and send troops, you have to know what they really think.
Yiyin has the privilege of making one-word decisions granted by the general, but how to use this power still needs to be considered.
After passing the village, Hitoshi Yoshimasa did not dare to go any further. Ahead is Shinzukiguchi, the territory belonging to the Iga clan.
The Nimu family has lost the guardian of Iga this time, and they don't want to continue taking risks. Since you, Shiba Gozen, have taken on this responsibility, please do your best.
Iga country has four counties: Abai, Yamada, Iga, and Nabaru. Among them, Abai County is in the north, and it is also the place where Yi Bank and his party entered.
Yoshihiro rode on the road, thinking about the individuals and events that Hitoshi Yoshimasa had mentioned. Four Hime samurai were on guard in front and behind, and riding beside him was Nizi Katsuhisa, the leader of this army.
Nizi Katsuhisa is very resourceful. In this battle, Akechi Mitsuhide is absent, so she is the counselor that Yiyin relies on.
"Lord Nizi, how do you think we should start?"
Yiyin is not very smart, but he has one advantage: he is self-aware.
After years of being a social worker, I know exactly how capable I am. He was reborn, but he didn't seem any wiser.
Therefore, keep a low profile when you should. If you can trust people, listen to their advice.
And Nizi Katsuhisa is the kind of warrior Hime who is trustworthy and can listen more.
In order to revive the Nizi family, Katsuhisa Nizi and Yukimori Yamazaka fought for the shogunate here, and were not involved with many recent forces.
This is the reason why Akechi Mitsuhide felt at ease and allowed her to go out with Shiba Yiyin and serve as a military officer.
Since Nizi Shengjiu is here, he also wants to make a difference, so he will naturally try his best.
"Iga Country has also done some research before, and this time I listened to the details of the Niki family governor. I think the Fujibayashi family is the most suitable place to start."
At the beginning of Iga's reign, the Hattori family was the leader. There was no end to the hard times that followed, and the Hattori family went to Beijing many times to look for opportunities.
But how could the ministers, who were full of food, give her a chance to beg the general for mercy? After several times, she was also discouraged.
When the contemporary Hattori family governor Baochang went to Beijing to surrender for the last time when he was the twelfth generation shogun, he was still blocked.
He was also a courageous man. He led his clan members to Mikawa, and it is said that he has become an official of the Matsudaira family there.
This reminded Yoshigage of Matsudaira Takechiyo, the follower behind Oda Nobunaga, and he also had some interactions with him.
The current Iga country is divided into three parts.
In addition to the clan members left behind by the Hattori family who were attached to their homeland, there are also two branches of the Hattori family, the Momochi family and the Fujibayashi family. The three families are divided and ruled.
The most famous among them is Momochi Santaifu, Momochi family governor, and the founder of Iga Ninja.
This Iga native had been a mercenary for so many years, and was often maliciously used as cannon fodder by the Wu family, resulting in heavy casualties.
After the Three Taifus of Momochi came to power, the Iga clan began to learn from the Koga clan. Instead of directly participating in the battle, it was transformed into spying on intelligence, assassinating important personnel and other ninja affairs.
There was no less money being made, but fewer people were dying. As a result, the prestige of the Three Taifus of Hundred Lands was greatly increased, and he became the most important among the Iga people.
But she has a strong character. Since she has chosen the path of assassination, she has made it clear that she is not prepared to make peace with the Wu family.
In the ninja profession, assassination is the most criticized thing by the samurai.
The samurai family likes to assassinate others, but they don't like to be assassinated. These ninjas who are good at assassination are naturally chamber pots, and they will make them sick after using them.
The Third Taifu of Baidi felt that the Wu family was shameless and could not be trusted, and there was nothing wrong with what he said.
The Hattori family has lost its backbone, and the Momochi family does not trust the Wu family, so the only way to open the situation is from the Fujibayashi family.
While Shiba Yoshigan and Nizi Katsuhisa were talking, a string of shurikens were nailed to the ground in front of their horses, causing the horses to stand up in shock.
