"Sanada Nobushige, did I give you too much?
Hokushin Matsushiro Domain, Ueno Azuma County, totaling more than 10,000 koku, right? Ten sets of plate armor, great, can you afford them?
The territory of more than 10,000 dan is not enough to support two reserve troops. Four officials and six citizens are less than 5,000 dan.
How much money can you save on food in a year? Half a percent? Two hundred stones? Buying rust-proof soybean material and pressing oil for ten sets of plate armor is not enough!
I know that the samurai family of Azuma County can endure hardships and is willing to bring their own dry food to help you fight. You can pull out two reserve teams to join the battle in Sano Territory. It is really majestic.
You, Sanada Nobushige, are so popular among people, it’s amazing! "
Yoshigan kicked and scolded him, and Sanada Nobushige was so frightened that he knelt down and pretended to be dead. Seeing that she was being honest at this time, Yiyin snorted, "It's too late!"
"Yamaka Yukimori!"
"Hi!"
"Sanada Nobushige is placed outside. The Sanada people no longer need to be included in the imperial establishment. Let's disband them."
Yamanaka Yukimori kowtowed to the ground to receive the order. She was the nominal leader of the Yutai people, and Yoshigami was following the procedure.
Yiyin continued.
"Big Bear Chao Xiu."
"Hi!"
"The Sanada people do not belong to the Yutai people's establishment, and they will not enjoy the treatment of Yutai people in the future."
Daxiong bowed to Xiu Xiu and accepted the order, and looked at Sanada Nobushige sympathetically.
Umino Riichi sighed in the crowd. Now the Sanada people suffered heavy losses. This idiot Sanada Nobushige really pissed off the Odaisho.
Sanada Nobushige was indeed in pain, but she didn't dare to raise her head and beg for mercy. Yu Taisuo was really angry, and she also knew she was afraid.
Yoshigan Shiba kicked Sanada out of the imperial establishment, canceled the benefits, and cut Sanada Nobunaga to death. This was to stop her delusion of causing trouble in Nishi Ueno.
The military core of the Kanto Palace is the Otai people. After the Battle of Kawanakajima, Yoshigan used both hard and soft tactics to completely control the Hime Warriors.
No matter how much the Shimogo people fight, the Sanada people don't dare to question the authority of Shiba Yiyin, because the Yutai people group enjoys transcendent economic benefits.
The number of Yutai people is about 250, divided into the Yiyin Tongxinzhu, the old Tongxinzhong in the mountains, the Xiayue group, and the Sanada group.
When forming Yutairen, Shiba Yiyin ordered the three-piece Yutairen special set of white rice, pickled radish, and dried salted fish.
In order to show his obedience to the imperial office, Daxiong Chaohide maintained a high level of supplies to the imperial people and never dared to run short of them.
Salted fish cannot be guaranteed to be available every day, but the quality and quantity of white rice and pickled radish are guaranteed. Even if the Yutai people are away on war, they will have a monthly ration of raw rice.
To put it simply, the imperial establishment has gradually become the most important crop in the Kanto Palace. The Shimogotsu clan and the Sanada clan each have a strength of 100. One person was disabled in battle and one was retired.
The monthly quota of raw rice can be collected at any time at the service office. Whether you eat it yourself or sell it, it is an extra income.
White rice is not brown rice, and the price on the market can be exchanged for at least five for one. One person in the family becomes a Yutai person, and the harvest is guaranteed every month due to drought and flood, and he can get the rations of five Ji warriors.
For the impoverished lower-class warrior Ji, this income can ensure that the whole family has enough to eat, and they envy their relatives and friends who are half-starved and half-fed.
Therefore, the grassroots military families are eager to recruit people from the imperial court. Every time there is a supplementary selection after the war, the Ji warriors who are qualified to join go all out, hoping to become a part of the Yutai people.
Sanada Nobushige's territory was only over 10,000 koku, and she dared to covet Nishi Ueno, provoking Nagano Yimasa who controlled Nishi Ueno's mobilization force of more than 100,000 koku.
Why? The hundred Sanada people behind her who were composed of Yutai people were loyal, brave, and not afraid of death.
The pay is high, and of course morale is high. The most important thing is that the money and food to support them does not come from Sanada Nobushige's own territory, but they eat food prepared by the Otai people.
Yiyin saw through her intentions. Can this wild monkey afford ten sets of plate armor? She is just being a rogue and wants the Kanto Palace to help raise her!
As long as Shiba Yiyin relents, Daxiong Chaoxiu's practice will have to bear the maintenance cost of these ten sets of plate armor. Otherwise, what about the land output of Sanada Nobushige? A poor b lord raises a p.
It's better now. If you steal the chicken, you won't lose the rice. Not only was the plate armor gone, but Yoshigan Shiba was also angered, and he directly deprived a hundred Sanada people of their imperial establishment.
Not to mention that Sanada Nobushige was provoking Nagano Yamasa, it was still a problem when he went back to explain to the sisters under his command.
The monthly ration for ten Hime warriors is two koku, and the white rice that one hundred Sanada warriors receive for a month is about twenty koku. The converted price in the market is one hundred koku of brown rice.
Losing 100 koku a month and 1,200 koku a year, how can Sanada Nobushige explain to these sisters who have been through life and death? Make a mistake on your own, anger the imperial office, and overturn everyone's iron rice bowl?
The Sanada people are unstable, and Azuma County is unstable. Sanada Nobushige still has time to provoke Nagano Yamasa? Take care of your own life first!
With the fury of Yoshiyin's thunder, he deprived the Sanada people of their military strength. This attack was so cruel that all the girls present were so frightened that they did not dare to breathe.
The subsequent deliberation was even more orderly. Knowing that the Lord was in a bad mood, who would dare to seek death? Sanada Nobushige also became confused, and his mind was filled with the word "finished".
When the deliberation was over, the ladies left the stage. Sanada Nobushige grabbed Umino Riichi outside the door, his voice already sobbing as he spoke.
"Liu Niang, you must help me think of a way this time. How can I tell my sisters when I go back? I'm really dead this time."
Umino glanced at her coldly, scolding her at this time was of no use, he had to find a way to solve this problem, otherwise the Sanada people would really fall apart.
Not to mention the unrighteousness of the sisters, there is a family behind us who are waiting for food, and they all rely on the hard-core crops of the Yutai people to support them.
As the eldest brother, Nobushige Sanada, you can't keep your mouth shut, causing everyone to have no food to eat. You can't let the whole family of sisters go hungry and work for you, right?
How can we talk about feelings and loyalty when we can't even eat? If I don't turn against you and give you a knife, it will be the end of my kindness and righteousness.
Sarutobi Sasuke on the side also frowned. She had the knowledge given by Yoshiyuki and was a retainer with the right to participate in the review, so she could see clearly in the room.
At this time, she couldn't bear to laugh and scold Sanada Nobushige. If he can't pass this level, Sanada Nobushige will really die.
Even if all the profits from her territory were used to raise troops, the treatment of the Sanada people would be far worse than before. Naturally, their loyalty would be greatly reduced and their foundation would be shaken.
Umino Riichi still had the same girlish face as before. She waited until the girls were almost gone, then pulled Sanada Nobushige to a corner and said.
"Good luck to you."
Sarutobi Sasuke couldn't help it anymore and asked.
"It's so miserable, how can you tell your fortune?"
Umino Riichi said coldly.
"The emperor is in a hurry and does things to the extreme, which is the Lord's destiny.
If you think carefully and control the punishment within the range that the Lord can bear, it will be difficult to handle. "
Sarutobi Sasuke still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Sanada Nobushige. Sanada Nobushige seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw at this moment. She was full of desire to survive and her mind was spinning rapidly.
"What Liu Niang is saying is that the imperial office may take back his life?"
Umino Riichi said calmly.
"Whether you will take your life back or not depends on whether you are thick-skinned. Come with me to the imperial office and remember to cry harder when the time comes.
If the imperial office only deprives you of part of your territory, or takes away part of the command power of the Sanada clan. Even if you are depressed, you can only endure it.
But the Imperial Council was so angry that they directly deprived the Sanada people of their Imperial status. How can you support a hundred Sanada members with your small territory?
Whether it was resentment among the Sanada people or renewed turmoil in Azuma County, these were not the results that Odai wanted to see.
He will be returning to Kokomo soon. Of course, the more stable everything in Kanto is, the better.
He was angry because he saw that you were desperately trying to cause trouble, so he started to weaken your ability to cause trouble. But what if he punishes you so severely that Azuma County turns into a mess? "
Sanada Nobushige nodded fiercely.
"Yes, I'm going to make a fool of myself. If the imperial office knows that I can't handle such a big pot, Azuma County will definitely be in chaos."
Umino Riichi warned sharply.
"You are so greedy that you just ask for ten sets of plate armor without consulting me. You are simply seeking death.
In full view of the public, if you question the lord's decision-making and don't suppress you, how will the emperor be able to control him in the future?
Even if you have great military exploits, you can't put the Imperial Palace on fire. Don't be embarrassed this time, cry so much that the whole city knows that you are scared, and the Imperial Palace has all the steps to get down, so that you can pass.
Every time we pressed the bottom line of the imperial office to ask for benefits, we calculated it carefully. You got carried away this time and acted without permission. You deserve this disaster.
If you do something stupid next time, I will run away immediately and you can go mess around on your own from now on.
The relationship between you and me as monarch and minister is over, and we will never see each other again. "
Sanada Nobushige shamelessly pulled Umino Riichi and said.
"Don't worry, Liu Niang. I will listen to you from now on and will never dare to do anything wrong."
Sarutobi Sasuke twitched his lips, subconsciously wanting to sneer and question her sincerity. But at this time, the Sanada people were facing a crisis and were on the verge of collapse. She thought it was inappropriate and endured it.
Umino Riichi stared at her coldly, and finally let out a sigh. There is really nothing I can do about this two-skinned person. I owed her everything in my previous life.
"Let's go and ask for mercy from the emperor."
———
In the meeting hall, Shiba Yoshigan left behind four people: Ohkuma Asahide, Ishida Mitsunari, Ozo Changan, and Ina Chuji.
In the past few days, he was considering that the Kanto Strategy would be temporarily transferred to internal affairs, and any new arrangements for the implementation would need to be discussed with the implementation group headed by Daxiong Zhaoxiu.
Before the group of people started discussing, Kamo Shigo entered the room and saluted Yi Bank.
"At the Imperial Office, Sanada Nobushige would like to see you."
Yoshigan snorted, not surprised that Sanada Nobunaga left and returned.
The purpose of this killing stick was to let the wild monkey in the mountains know pain and rules, and to deprive her of the ability to cause trouble.
The matter of going to Luo is imminent, and even a fool can see that Yiyin wants peace in Guandong. Sanada Nobushige didn't know what was good or bad, and just relied on his own uniqueness and outstanding military achievements to make a move.
If Yoshiyin doesn't fuck her down, how can the Guandong Waiting House be in charge if others follow her example?
Killing the chicken to show the monkey, in order to follow through, Yiyin will not show favor to Sanada Nobuhige this time, he said lightly.
"Tell her to get lost."
Kamouso bowed and left. Not long after leaving, a sad howling was heard in the house.
"Please forgive me! Please forgive me! I know I was wrong! I beg you to be merciful and give me a way to survive. Please be merciful!"
The concubines looked at Yiyin with strange expressions, and Yiyin also looked confused.
Does this wild monkey want to be shameless? The Wu family in the Wanshi Territory can call everyone by their first name and call them "His Royal Highness" to the outside world. How much does it mean to have some respect?
This voice was so loud that it lost its skin. Among the martial arts families who pay attention to face and etiquette, and would commit seppuku for the sake of dignity, he was really an outlier.
Just when everyone was hesitating, the cries outside the door became more and more pitiful. Those who didn't know thought that wild boars were being hunted outside the door.
Yiyin's forehead twitched and he shouted.
"Bama Shengji, tell her to get in here!"
Sanada Nobushige is shameless, but Yoshigan still wants it. In this Numata Castle, not only the Kantōshi samurai family but also the Uesugi retainers were present.
These howls were heard by the whole city. The Kanto servant could be laughed at by the Uesugi family all winter long, this careless fool!
When the sliding door opened, Sanada Nobunshi crawled up to Yoshigan, fell to the ground and kowtowed with such intensity that Yoshigan's teeth ached.
Behind him, Umino Riichi still had a poker face. He silently walked to Sanada Nobushige, knelt down and saluted. As for Sarutobi Sasuke, he didn't follow. I don't know if it was because it was too embarrassing.
Yiyin frowned and cursed.
"Stop! Are you trying to make a fool out of yourself? Your brain is no longer functioning properly, and you are still torturing it like this, you are an idiot!"
When Sanada Nobushige raised his head, his nose was full of tears and his whole face was blurred.
"I am guilty, but my crime does not lead to death. When I think about going back and dying, I am really frightened. I can't help but want to kowtow and beg for mercy."
Umino Riichi glanced at his master from the sidelines and had to give her a thumbs up in his heart.
Although this grandson has a lot of problems, one good thing is that he is really able to bend and stretch without any shame. People in the mountains are sincere, as long as there are benefits, but can the etiquette and face of the Wu family be used as food?
In public, all the ladies from the execution office looked at her shameless begging, and Yiyin also looked helpless.
This wild monkey is trying to save his face by finding a way out? She thought he reduced her military power because she lost face after being contradicted in public today?
Yiyin couldn't help rolling his eyes and said.
"Don't pretend to be pitiful. You did something yourself and you know it in your heart.
I'm just giving you a small punishment and a big warning, so that you can remember it for a long time. It's a good thing for the Wu family to be ambitious, but if your ambition is too great, be careful to overwhelm yourself. "
Yoshihiro realizes that he has done nothing wrong and adheres to the principle of never forgetting past mistakes and treating illnesses to save lives. He will not be fooled by Sanada Nobunaga's pitiful appearance.
Sanada Nobushige was afraid of saying the wrong thing, so he looked carefully at Umino Riichi next to him.
Yiyin noticed her little move and sneered in his heart. Found that he couldn't handle it, so he found a dog-headed military advisor?
Umino Ri bowed and was about to speak, but was coldly interrupted by Yoshigan.
"Umino Riichi, I know that you are very resourceful, and you have contributed a lot to Sanada Nobushige being able to get to where he is today.
But I want to remind you that as a subordinate, you should not only help your superiors with suggestions, but also prevent your superiors from misbehaving!
I think you should understand the principle of a snake swallowing an elephant when the human heart is not enough, right? "
