Terutora Uesugi stood aside, watching Yoshigoshi Shiba's impassioned speech with mixed emotions.
At this moment, his face was full of hatred for the world, making his ideals shine so noble.
Recalling that yesterday he had used the benefit of Luo to win the throne to lure him into marrying him, Uesugi Teruhu couldn't help but blush. How ugly does the profit-seeking self look in his eyes?
He is a fairy man who should not appear in the world, and his heart is filled with a sense of responsibility to the martial arts society, but his self-interested and lustful words are simply an insult to him.
Uesugi Teruhu felt some regret. She really should have forced him to submit. Maybe this was the only chance to get the company of a beautiful woman.
She had a feeling that letting him go back home might be the biggest mistake she had ever made in her life, and she would regret it for the rest of her life.
This young man does not belong to anyone. He is an angel sent by God to save the Wu family from troubled times.
Seeing the seemingly inviolable male god in front of the ladies, Shiba Yiyin secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that everything went well.
He first blocks the mouths of the wise with crisis, then blinds the eyes of the greedy with benefits, and finally satisfies everyone's vanity with righteousness. It paved the way for his return to Japan.
The Kanto Raiders had a good start, and the worries of the ladies present were simply the fear that the Kyoto Incident would affect their ability to benefit from the Kanto Raiders.
Shiba Yiyin must show that he is methodical and wise. Odawara Castle took over the olive branch from the Hojo family, not because of the impact of the Kyoto Incident, but because of the need for the Kanto strategy.
After conquering all the girls present with his superb performance, Yiyin finally got his ticket to return to Japan.
He looked sideways at Uesugi Teruhu with a hint of guilt in his eyes. The biggest reason why he was able to go so smoothly today was that Terutora Uesugi was on his side.
With the accumulation of victories one after another in the past two years, Yoshihiro Saba's prestige is at its peak in Echigo.
The only person who can truly negate his decision is the invincible Terutora Uesugi who single-handedly transformed the Fuchu Nagao family into the Yamauchi Uesugi family and marched southward to the Kanto Plain.
When Terutora Uesugi was silent, although the Uesugi retainers group had doubts, they only dared to kick out Naoe Kanetsugu, a junior, to question him.
Naoe Kanetsugu lacks confidence, so how can he fight against the indignant Shiba Yoshigin? Asked a few words to suit the occasion, she wilted.
Thinking of Uesugi Teruhora's true love for him, Yoshigami couldn't help but blush. Even though he was struggling in the politics of the Wu family until it was dark, and his face was so thick that he was invulnerable, Yiyin's conscience was still uneasy.
Uesugi Teruhu didn't know what Yoshigami was thinking. When she saw her sweetheart blushing towards her, she felt a sweet feeling in her heart. You still have a conscience.
she said with a smile.
"What Mr. Qianxin said is right. The world cannot continue to be chaotic. It will eventually return to order.
As long as we, the warrior family, enjoy everything given by the pillars of the warrior family, we have the obligation to avenge the shogunate and speak out for the justice of the world.
When the world returns to peace, our achievements will be passed down to future generations and be admired by all generations of descendants. "
What Terutora Uesugi said was high-sounding, but his expression was full of affection, which made Yoshigage sweat drip from his forehead. What's going on again?
He glanced at the scene with his eyes. The ladies present seemed unconcerned, but their eyes flickered one after another.
On the side of the Kanto Waiting Office, Yamanaka Yukimori lowered his head and remained silent, Shima Katsuo had an expressionless face, and Sanada Nobushige took advantage of the situation and yawned.
On the side of the Uesugi retainers, Kakizaki Keie and Saito Asanobu exchanged ambiguous glances. Mouri Kagehiro was sitting respectfully, and Irobe Katsunaga nodded silently, as if he only understood the literal meaning.
Ishida Mitsunari and Naoe Kanetsugu looked at each other subconsciously, made eye contact and then looked away silently.
The complicated relationship between the Kanto Palace and the Uesugi retainers is the most embarrassing among them. The adherents are the closest part of both parties, and whether the relationship is good or bad is their misfortune.
The relationship is so good that they have to keep in close contact with government and business affairs. If the relationship turns bad, they can't just fall out, right? Despite the doubts at home, communication still needs to be done.
This is just like the diplomats of later generations. You are the one who signs the contract, you are the one who gets scolded, and it is you who gets the house burned. But is this treaty signed? It's not up to you.
The two scapegoats looked helpless, and Sibo Yiyin above felt even more uncomfortable. There was really nothing he could do about Teru Uesugi, so he simply continued talking about business with a straight face.
"Hojo Ujiyasu wants us to retreat, so we can't do it with empty words. Let her first lift the alert of Tamana Castle and open the road to Kamakura."
As soon as Yiyin said this, everyone's minds were pulled back and they began to think.
Facing the Echigo army moving south, the Hojo family deployed two lines of defense, both internal and external.
Counting from north to south, the outer side is the Musashi defense line with Matsuyama Castle, Kawagoe Castle, and Edo Castle. The inner side is the Sagami defense line consisting of Tsukui Castle, Koji Castle, and Tamana Castle.
The turning of Matsuyama Castle and Edo Castle turned Kawagoe Castle into an isolated city, and Daidaiji Temple defended the city and did not dare to take the lead.
This time, Echigo's army bypassed Kawagoe Castle, walked from Matsuyama Castle in the north to Sagamihara, and went straight into Odawara Castle.
Tsukui Castle in the north of the Sagami Defense Line is a mountainous area connecting the northwest of Sagami and Musashi. The lord of the castle, Naito Yasuyuki, also participated in the Sano Territory Battle and fled back in embarrassment, already scared out of his mind.
Although she did not choose to betray the Hojo family, she still defended the city and gave up the Sagamihara passage.
The powerful local samurai, Oishi Kusada, the lord of Takiyama Castle, turned his back on the Hojo family and joined Uesugi Teruhora, becoming a breakthrough point for the Echigo army.
Through the support of local samurai families in Matsuyama Castle and Takiyama Castle, mobilizing farmers and soldiers to transport supplies, and using the water transportation of the Tama River and Sagami River, the Echigo army was able to directly penetrate Odawara Castle.
Hojo Ujiyasu also reacted quickly, quickly returning all military forces to Kotawara Castle and ordering all the castles in Sagami to hold on.
Although most of the Hojo elite were lost in the Sano Territory, the Hojo family, which abandoned the villages outside the city, temporarily stabilized the situation with the help of the city wall, and the two sides fell into a stalemate besieging the city.
Faced with Hojo Ujiyasu's call for the Kyoto Incident, the samurai family should unite and attack the Miyoshi rebels. Yiyin can withdraw his troops, but the Hojo family must show sincerity.
To the south of the Sagami Defense Line is Tamana Castle, which defends the Kamakura area.
Sibo Yiyin smiled.
"If Hojo Ujiyasu is really sincere, he will open the passage to Kamakura Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine and let Uesugi-dono go down to complete the succession ceremony of the Kanto Governor."
Uesugi Teruhu raised his eyebrows, somewhat understanding.
"Does Lord Kenshin mean to deprive Hojo Ujiyasu of his status as the governor of Kanto?"
Yiyin shook his head and said.
“The Kanto system has lasted for two hundred years, and the leadership of Kanto has always been hereditary from the Uesugi family.
The Kamakura-den granted Hojo Ujiyasu the governorship of Kanto, which was an act of chaos, so what's the point of deprivation?
What I want is for Hojo Ujiyasu to give way to Kamakura so that you can complete the succession ceremony of the Kanto governorship. Finally, let Hojo Ujiyasu offer the sword. "
Terutora Uesugi clapped his hands and sighed.
"wonderful."
Hojo Ujiyasu has been operating in Kanto for many years, and finally destroyed the Ryosugi family, puppeted the Kanto generals, and overthrew the entire Kanto system.
She promoted Ashikaga Yoshiji to the throne of the Kanto general, and then used her to accept her appointment as the Kanto leader, rebuilding the Kanto system of the Hojo family.
Politically, the new system has replaced the old system, and then it only needs to slowly encroach on the territory of Guanbazhou.
The martial arts families of various countries in the Kanto region used the local area to fight against the central government, and they lowered their righteousness. Regardless of the Satomi family or the Satake family, these daimyo have thorns in the local area who are unwilling to obey.
The Hojo family can completely use the name of the Kanto system to provide local thorny assistance, fight against local daimyo, and help them expand their influence.
Before Uesugi Terutora went south, Utsunomiya, Satake, and Satomi, these local lords, had suffered enough from the Hojo family supporting the local samurai family and tormenting them.
This time, taking advantage of the defeat of Sano's leadership in the battle against Hojo, each family also took advantage of the situation and tried to clean up the thorns in their own area.
The conflict between Uesugi Teruhu and Hojo Ujiyasu became more intense, and the two sides were fighting for the center. Whoever gets the official status will have the political advantage to suppress the entire Kanto region.
The 100,000-strong army turned around, but it wasn't that they couldn't take Yusheng City. However, Hojo Ujiyasu took the initiative to give in and let the Kwantung Allied Forces pass, which had different political significance.
Uesugi Teruhora already had Ashikaga Yoshiji, the Kanto general, and Kada Harusuke, the samurai composer, to preside over the succession ceremony.
Once she completes the entire ceremony of the Kanto leader, she asks the Kanto samurai to present a tachi as a token of congratulations. Will the Hojo clan offer it?
The deprived Kanto leadership is different from Hojo Ujiyasu voluntarily giving up the new system.
If it is deprived, Hojo Ujiyasu can not recognize Uesugi Teruhu's old system and start another game at any time.
But if she presented the sword to the new Guandong governor according to the tradition of the Wu family, she would have no choice but to refuse to admit it.
The samurai family values gifts. If you, the Hojo family, offer the sword, you will become a part of the Kanto system. Starting a fire is rebellion.
If you have the ability, your Hojo family will always be tyrannical. As long as you dare to show your weakness, countless samurai families will dare to covet your territory and take your life.
At this time, you can't call it a defeat from the bottom, because you are rebellious, and this is called bringing order out of chaos.
Fame is the icing on the cake when you are strong, but it can be the difference between life and death when you are weak. You are strong and you are awesome, but if you are weak, you have to talk about reason and status.
The Shiba clan has been in decline for many years, but the Oda family has not destroyed her family. If Oda Nobutomo hadn't suddenly raised his butcher's knife, this mascot of the Oda family would still have been raised. This is the power of fame.
Although Yoshihiro's move did not require Hojo Ujiyasu to pay any actual land materials, it did cost her the reputation of having been in business for many years.
If Hojo Ujiyasu takes over, the Hojo family will be reduced to a local daimyo in the Kanto system. From then on, their status will be lower than that of Teru Sugi, and many political operations will be difficult to handle.
When the Echigo army attacked again, the samurai within the Hojo family who wanted to surrender no longer had any scruples.
Bowing to the leadership of the leader and seeking a new position within the system, can this be called surrender? This is called job adjustment.
Uesugi Teruhu was very satisfied with Yigin's countermeasures.
The elite members of the Hojo family have been defeated, and the Sagami Kingdom has been completely ruined by the Kanto samurai family. If he takes the initiative to surrender with his sword, what kind of waves can Hojo Ujiyasu make?
After Echigo digests the results of this victory, the next time they come again, it will be the moment when the Hojo family collapses.
she laughed.
"Just follow what Lord Kenshin said, shoot the letter arrow into the city, and let Hojo Ujiyasu send people to negotiate."
Yiyin shook his head.
“A hundred thousand troops are surrounding the city, why take the initiative?
The news of the general's death was announced to the outside world, and the entire army watched and mourned for the Lord. When Hojo Ujiyasu saw it, he would naturally send people to join in the mourning. "
Uesugi Teruhu nodded and said.
"That's it."
After an internal discussion within the Echigo samurai clan ended, Yoshigan Shiba and Terutora Uesugi held a military meeting to make Miyoshi's regicide known to the public.
After that, the whole army was wrapped in clothes and their cries were loud. The 100,000-strong army under Odawara Castle was devastated by the death of Ashikaga Shogun.
The direct descendants of Kawachi Genji have ruled the samurai family for hundreds of years, and the Ashikaga Shogunate has occupied the world for two hundred years. The Ashikaga Shogun is the mother of all samurai families in the world.
Those who are ministers are loyal. For women, filial piety. All the Wu family must burst into tears, otherwise they will be unfaithful and unfilial trash.
Yiyin stared blankly at the white flags that were slowly hung up, and at the Ji warriors lying on the ground crying, feeling a burst of sadness in his heart.
Since receiving the news last night, Yiyin has been busy bridging the differences with Teruhu Uesugi, cleaning up the collapsed old strategy, and planning new strategies for the future.
When all the dust fell, he had time to calm down and regain his personal emotions and melancholy.
That woman is dead, that arrogant woman, she is really dead. There were many ways to coerce him, but in the end he was so arrogant that he let Yiyin leave Jinji.
The fool who wants to clean up the shogunate, prove himself, and finally win the beauty back. . Why did she die?
Yiyin raised his head, and two lines of tears fell down his cheeks.
What a stupid woman, I have been using you, do you know? In fact, you don't have to do so many things. The Otaisho had already forced me into a corner. Why are you so stupid?
You can obviously live a good life and be your noble lord of the world, Ashikaga Yoshiteru, you are such a hopeless fool.
Death is like a lamp going out. I will never have the chance to pay you back what I owe you. Do you know that?
Yoshigan slowly lowered his raised head and glanced at Terutora Uesugi beside him. Her face was full of care, which made Yoshigan's mouth feel bitter.
Both of them are like this. I am just using you, fool. One day you will see my true face and you will regret it.
The hearty smile of Terutora Uesugi and the words "I never regret" appeared in Yoshigine's mind.
The caring face of Uesugi Teruatora in front of her merged with the unwavering Uesugi Teruatora in her mind, making Yoshigan glare at her in anger.
Uesugi Teruhu didn't know where he had offended his sweetheart, so he rubbed his nose in embarrassment and looked away.
Yiyin sighed, knowing that he was in the wrong, he lowered his head and stopped talking.
The inadvertent exchange between the two was silently watched by the Ji warriors who were paying attention to them. Some secretly cursed the couple, some snickered ambiguously, and some had more complicated thoughts.
On the side of the Kanto Waiting Office, Yamanaka Yukimori stared blankly at Yoshigan, Shima Katsu Meng slowly closed his eyes, and Sanada Nobushige kept squinting, not knowing what he was thinking.
When paying tribute, how many people really remember General Ashikaga?
