The three Shino tribes have thrived in Toxin and Nishi Ueno for hundreds of years. Regardless of whether they are famous or not, the martial arts families at the bottom are intertwined with each other and have a lot of influence.
The Umino family was expelled from Toshin by the Takeda family and had no choice but to defect to Nishi Ueno and Nagano Yamasa.
As the most famous family among the three Shiye clans, her family still has some respect. Nagano Ye was willing to take in the Umino family, but he would not help them fight back to their ancestral homeland.
After Takeda Harunobu came to power, he changed his mother Nobutora's rough approach and started to fight and pull against the Shinano family to disintegrate his opponents from within.
She wooed Uminoya to return to Toshin, but Uminoya's legs were weak and he just couldn't kneel down.
When the Takeda family expelled the Umino family and killed many members of their direct lineage and collateral relatives, the hatred was so deep that the Umino family really couldn't convince themselves to kneel down.
On the contrary, Yukitaka Sanada, who was separated from the Umino family, missed his homeland and was willing to go back and be a dog for Takeda Harunobu. Later, the Sanada family successfully replaced the Umino family and became the leader of the Higashi believers under Takeda.
As time passed, the Umino family's prestige declined, and life in Toshin became increasingly difficult.
But there are three flaws in a broken ship. Sanada Nobushige wanted to go back to recruit troops, and he couldn't get around the Umino family, the backbone of the clan and the famous Shino family.
Riichi Umino is the elite of this generation of the Umino family. She is also the little sister who grew up playing with Sanada Nobushige. She is indeed the best breakthrough.
Mochizuki Yukitada glanced at Nezu Sadamori and said.
"My lord, you and Liu Niang have the best relationship. It is not an option for the Umino family to waste time in Dongxin.
Everyone will help if they can, but without hope for the future, they will be doomed sooner or later.
Her family is unwilling to serve the Takeda family, so if she comes to the Kanto Palace to follow the direct descendants of the Kawachi Genji family, she won't refuse, right?
The two of us went back to talk to the sisters from the Mochizuki and Jingen families, and the capable Ji warriors from each family tried their best to bring help from the Kanto Palace.
As for the Umino family, as long as you can convince Umino Riichi, it won't be a problem. "
The three descendants of the Shino clan are the three clans of Umino, Mochizuki, and Tsune, as well as the branch clans that flourished among the three clans. They seem to be one, but in fact there are still closeness and distance inside and outside.
Dazzled by the high treatment offered by the Kanto Waiting Office, Nezu Sadamori and Mochizuki Yukitada were moved and wanted to go back to their homes to invite their sisters to have dinner.
The Sanada family belongs to the branch of the Umino family. How to deal with the Umino branch is of course up to Sanada Nobushige himself, and no outsiders can get involved.
Sanada Nobushige nodded.
"Then let's go back and pick up people. I'll go to Dongxin to talk to Liu Niang."
The next day, Sanada Nobushige set off with Sarutobi Sasuke, and the other two together.
They braved the wind and snow to go to Nishi Ueno and Dongxin, bringing the good news of free white rice to the hungry and cold tribesmen.
———
Tokaido, Three Rivers Country.
Matsudaira Motoyasu successfully captured Yoshida Castle and eradicated the Imagawa family's last stronghold in Higashi Mikawa.
While she reported the good news to Oda Nobunaga, who had noticed the changes in Mikawa, she also rectified the various families in Higashi Mikawa and incorporated their military and food services to expand her own strength.
At this time, the envoys sent by the Takeda family also arrived in Mikawa Kingdom, hoping to meet with Matsudaira Motoyasu to attack the Imagawa family.
In the Yoshida Castle Hall, Matsudaira Motoyasu received the Takeda envoy in a friendly manner and then asked her to rest first.
As soon as they left, she asked the group of Matsudaira retainers sitting there.
"What do you think?"
The teacher who had just been appointed by her as the leader of Higashi Mikawa and responsible for suppressing Higashi Mikawa, Tadashi Sakai, the veteran of the lineage, came out to bow and speak.
“Your Highness, I think the time is not yet ripe.
My family was able to capture Higashi Mikawa because the Imagawa family was so stupid and messed up their position. She is mediocre and incompetent, but the Imagawa family's strength is still there.
I think the most important thing now is to integrate the various families in Dongsanhe and send troops to Yuanjiang Country. This matter should be postponed for another time. "
Matsudaira Motoyasu nodded, Sakai Tadashi was a veteran minister seeking stability for his country.
The most important reason why the Matsudaira family was able to quickly capture Higashi Mikawa was not because of the ability of the Nishi Mikawa Princess warriors, but because of the amazing assist from the Imagawa clan.
Because of the civil strife in the Imagawa family, she suspected that the Higashi Mikawa samurai families would take the opportunity to break away from the family, so she asked each Higashi Mikawa family for new hostages to show their loyalty to Sunfu Castle.
This move caused widespread dissatisfaction among the Dongsanhe martial arts family. Nishi Mikawa's Matsudaira family was busy sharpening their swords. They took care of things for the Imagawa family at the front, but the master at the rear could not trust them.
Is this still a p?
The Suganuma family of Noda Castle was unwilling to offer new hostages and announced their rebellion against the Imagawa family.
Feeling that he was offended, Imagawa killed the thirteen hostages of the Suganuma family in his hands, hoping to scare the monkeys and scare Higashi Mikawa.
Who knew that her move would actually irritate every family in Dongsanhe.
Matsudaira Motoyasu was still in charge of the Ichigo Sect in Nishi Mikawa, but when he saw the opportunity, he immediately began to contact the Higashi Mikawa samurai family. She struck while the iron was hot and took advantage of the slack time between summer and autumn harvests to quickly send troops to Dongsanhe.
The dissatisfied Higashi Mikawa samurai family cooperated with the outside world, and the Matsudaira family was able to quickly take Higashi Mikawa. Then they mobilized again after the autumn harvest and uprooted the isolated strongholds that were stubbornly resisting.
With the fall of Yoshida Castle, the Imagawa family's influence in Mikawa has been completely wiped out, and the Matsudaira family has achieved control over the Tokaido territory.
But this achievement comes from the Imagawa family's true stupidity and will be difficult to replicate in the future. Sakai Tadashi's worries are not unreasonable.
The Matsudaira family has not yet established a firm foothold in the Mikawa Kingdom, so they rashly send troops to the Yuanjiang Kingdom. What if there is trouble behind them? It is better to stand firm in Dongsanhe first and then follow up.
Matsudaira Motoyasu nodded slightly.
At this time, another person from the retainers group came out and bowed to speak.
"I disagree with Mr. Sakai's remarks."
Sakai Chuji glanced at the man and said calmly, this girl was Ishikawa Sumasa.
The Ishikawa family is also a retainer of the Matsudaira family tree. In Nishi Mikawa Ichiku, Ishikawa Sumasa converted from the Ichikai sect to the Pure Land sect, and his performance of resolutely supporting the lord was praised by Matsudaira Motoyasu.
She is now the leader of the Nishi Mikawa flag, and she has guarded the castle for Matsudaira Motoyasu who went on an expedition. She serves as Okazaki Castle Dai and is highly valued.
Sakai Tadashi has a very high status in the Matsudaira family, and most people are not qualified to speak out against her suggestions. Ishikawa Sumasa is one of the few people who are qualified.
she said.
"Not to be missed.
Our family is far weaker than the Imagawa family. If we stay in Mikawa and ignore the outside world, what will we do to resist her attack if the Imagawa family really recovers?
The Higashi Mikawa martial arts family can serve His Highness today, and they can return to the true command of the Imagawa clan another day.
The enemy is strong and we are weak, so we can only fight hard. While the Imagawa family is in chaos, it would be best for us to cooperate with the Takeda family to invade.
Your Highness, the Takeda family sent envoys to jointly attack the Imagawa family. This is a God-given opportunity.
If you don't take what God gives you, you will be punished by God. "
Ishikawa was kneeling on the ground, and Matsudaira Motoyasu nodded again. One of the two important ministers advocated a steady approach, and the other hoped to seize the opportunity. Both of them made sense.
Sakai Chuji and Ishikawa Tsumasa looked at each other and bowed slightly to each other. It seems that the two of them are doing things out of public motives, but in fact they have different agendas.
