The west side of Shinkawa County, occupied by the Shiina family, had already been riddled with holes by the Shinbo Nagasaki. Shiina Yasuyin can stabilize the situation because he relies on Kadokawa's front-line defense system.
Uozu Castle, Kanayama Castle, Tenjinzan Castle, the three castles responded to block the Jimbo army and protect the upper reaches of Kadokawa, Shiina Yasuinju Castle and Matsukura Castle where Tateyama is located.
The chief minister of the gods could not bear this hard nut for a while, so Shiina Yasuyin defected to the Yuezhong Ixiangzong again.
She received support from the temples of the Ichiko sect in Shinkawa County, as well as the support of the Ichiko sect in Toba County, the deity chief. This made the chief minister of the gods exhausted and unable to swallow the weak Shiina family.
If Terutora Uesugi sent troops from Echigo Kingdom to the east and crossed the Kagawa River to capture Miyazaki Castle, Shiina Yasuin would not have the extra strength to defend the rear.
Under the attack from the east and west of the Jimbo Uesugi family, the Shiina family will be quickly defeated.
The price given by the chief minister is the territory of Shinkawa County east of the Kurobe River, which occupies about one-third of the entire Shinkawa County.
There are many plains across China with many rivers and fertile land, and the stone height is 380,000. The land that the Divine Protector Changzhi reluctantly ceded was probably fifty to sixty thousand koku, right?
The price was not low, enough to tempt the Echigo samurai family.
The most important thing is that the Shiba family is planning to transport 70% of Kansai's goods through the Hokuriku Road trade route, which contains huge benefits.
Jinbo Nagasaki didn't know the huge profits of the Hokurikudo trade route, and he didn't know the urgency in Shiba Yoshigan's heart, so he gave a good price.
With this offer, the Echigo samurai family had land to acquire, and the morale of Echichu Noto was certainly high, making this battle easy to fight.
After negotiating the price, Sibo Yiyin nodded with satisfaction and said.
"His Majesty Jinbo is determined.
What happened to the Noto Hatakeyama family? Please tell me in detail. "
Although Uesugi Teruhu has sent people to Noto to investigate, it is always good to have one more channel for verification. The Etchu Jinbo family has a close relationship with the Noto Hatakeyama family, so they should know some inside information.
Kojima said bitterly.
"The Noto Hatakeyama family is really in chaos."
She spoke eloquently, and Yiyin listened carefully.
The Noto Hatakeyama family is a branch of the Hatakeyama family and has a very good relationship with the clan. It has long been the arbitrator for the clan's territorial disputes in Hokurikudo.
The Hatakeyama family established a system of three guardian generations in Yuechuang: the Yusa family, the Jimbo family, and the Shiina family. When disputes arise between the three guardians, the Noto-Hatakeyama family usually mediates.
After the Yatsudai Shogun Rebellion, the Hatakeyama family, like other prominent shogunate families, declined and gradually abandoned the Hokurikudo.
Over the three guardian generations of China, the Yusa family was killed one by one, the Jimbo family and the Shiina family attacked each other, and the Hatakeyama branch of Noto was not having a good time.
The problem of the Noto Hatakeyama family was that the family was withered. The local tycoons formed the Hatakeyama Seven to discuss state affairs, blocking the master in Nanao Castle and unable to issue government orders.
The two strongest families among the seven are the Onai family and the Noto Yusa family.
During the period when the governor of the Onjing family, Zongzhen, was the head of the Seven People, he united with other families to kick out the Yusa family and monopolize the state affairs.
The Noto Rebellion this time originated from the expansion of the Hokuriku Road trade route. Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna and Onai Sosada could not agree on the distribution of interests in Nanao Port, which intensified the conflict.
Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna, who controlled the samurai alliance behind the Hokuriku Road trade route, thought the time was right and hacked to death Onai Sosada, who came to Nanao Castle for a banquet.
Of course, the Onei family refused to give up. They colluded with the Kaga Ichika clan to launch a civil strife and drove away Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna from Nanao Castle.
The Noto Hatakeyama family and the Etsuchu Jimbo family had a deep relationship, and both parties had interests connected with Nanao Port cargo.
The expelled Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna was unwilling to accept the decline of his family fortune, so he did not go to Kongo to seek refuge with the shogunate. Instead, he went to Toyama Castle to seek help from the chief minister of the gods.
When the chief priest saw the expelled Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna, his head suddenly exploded. Without the low-priced goods from Nanao Port, the Jimbo family, which is striving to expand, will not have the military support to attack the Shiina family and the Ichikou clan.
As a last resort, she could only emphasize the special status of Shiba Yoshigan and ask Hatakeyama Yoshizuna to directly ask for help from Echigo.
At first, Yoshihiro Saba took the Hokuriku Road and contacted Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna with a letter from Hatakeyama Takamasa's family, thus achieving the opening of Nanao Port.
Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna had a relationship with Shiba Yoshigan, a powerful local faction in the shogunate, so of course she readily agreed, and this is how she wrote a letter to Echigo asking for help.
Yiyin rubbed his temples, speechless.
If it weren't for the development of the Houriku Road trade route, there is a high probability that Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna would still be pretending to be his grandson in Nanao Castle. Even if he couldn't survive, he would be driven to Kyoto and defect to the Hatakeyama clan in despair.
She would stay at Echichu Jinbo's house and write letters to Echigo for help. Just because Shiba Yigen, the leader of the powerful local faction in the shogunate, is here, he can make the decision for her.
This is a responsibility that Yiyin cannot shirk. He has integrated the power of local powerful factions for his own use, and he has the obligation to protect his followers.
The letter Hatakeyama Takamasa gave him opened the door to the Noto Hatakeyama family for him, and also caused today's trouble. This is the equivalence of rights and obligations, and he has no shirk.
After hearing the complaints from Kojima Town, Yiyin felt disgusted in his heart. Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna thought that the samurai alliance backed by the Hokuriku Road trade route was full of wings, so he dared to kill Onei Sosada with a sword.
But the Onei family has been in Noto for so many years and has climbed to the position of the number one retainer. How could it be a good thing?
Now the Wenjing family has lured a wolf into the house and colluded with the Xiang clan to create chaos. The weak and unreasonable Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna had no choice but to run away and come to Yoshigan Shiba for justice.
Fair p! He's just a stupid idiot who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth!
Yoshihiro finally understood the whole story of the Noto Rebellion, but he couldn't care about that for the time being. The rebellion in Shimogoshi-Shinbada has begun, and he must first suppress the trouble at this end.
So, he said to Xiaodao Job Town.
"I have understood the matter.
I will write you a letter. You go back to Kasugayama Castle and inform His Highness Uesugi of His Highness Jinbo’s request. The two parties have discussed in detail the demarcation of the Kurobe River.
Shiina Kangyin committed rebellion and was deprived of his duty as a guard in Yuezhong. Now he colludes with Yixiang Zong to disrupt Yuezhong, which is an unforgivable crime.
I believe that the Jimbo Uesugi family can work together to root out this treasonous shogunate.
As for the matter of the Noto Hatakeyama family, we can discuss it after you two have reached an agreement. "
The conditions of Kojima Town were acceptable to Yoshihiro, but the main force in Echigo was the new Uesugi family of Teru Uesugi.
As for how to divide this fat piece of meat in the Shiina family, the Jimbo Uesugi family still has to negotiate clearly among themselves. To avoid wrangling in the future, it will be difficult for Yiyin to be a good person.
Uesugi Terutora has sent ninjas to investigate Noto's matter. After she sorted out the military situation, she would go back to the imperial palace with Shiba Yiyin to discuss it.
Anyway, let’s put it aside for now.
Kojima Jijin bowed respectfully and left. Yoshigami looked at her hurriedly leaving figure, thinking of the Shimogoshi Shinbada rebellion and the vague clues of the Ou samurai family behind him, and had a splitting headache.
It's really difficult to do something serious in this Echigo land.
