After beating the three people, Yiyin glanced at the remaining minor characters and was too lazy to use them to establish his power. He turned to Ashikaga Yoshiaki and said pleasantly.
"Your Highness Ashikaga Yoshiaki, you are the sister of our ancestors. The Ashikaga General's family suffered a misfortune, and now only you and me are left.
We should unite as one and go to Luo to avenge our ancestors. Do you think this is the truth? "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki was ecstatic, and Shiba Yoshigan directly recognized her identity as a descendant of the Ashikaga Shogun family. As soon as he opened his mouth, outsiders had nothing to say.
She nodded respectfully.
"That's what Yutai said."
Yiyin shook his head and said.
"Don't be so polite. Speaking of which, I can be considered your brother-in-law, and you and I are not outsiders.
You are the only one left in the Ashikaga Shogun family's immediate family, and the shogunate will inevitably be reorganized after going to Luo.
Are you willing to take on more important responsibilities and contribute your strength to the continuation of the Ashikaga Shogun family? "
"Of course I do, Odaisho, it's my honor."
Ashikaga Yoshiaki was overjoyed. She was so happy that her scalp was numb. How could things go so smoothly?
Yoshigan had originally planned to unite with Ashikaga Yoshiaki to resist the rise of Oda Nobunaga's power.
When he saw Ashikaga Yoshiaki's appearance resembling Ashikaga Yoshiteru, he thought about the kindness of the deceased and made up his mind to support Ashikaga Yoshiaki.
But he didn't know how deep Ashikaga Yoshiaki's resentment towards him was.
In the view of Ashikaga Yoshiaki, Yoshigan Shiba, who has the great righteousness of the direct descendant of Kawachi Genji, is far more dangerous than Oda Nobunaga.
Shiba Yiyin was momentarily unaware of the hostility in her heart, and still wanted to help her rise to the top. He would suffer in the future.
Oda Nobunaga also sneered in his heart when he saw how majestic Yoshigoshi Shiba was and how he managed to keep the ministers and ministers in submission with just a few words.
In troubled times, the last word is to have a big fist.
Her patience today was all for the smooth journey to Luo. When the Oda family completes the climb to Luo and takes over the land of Minami Omi, she will take a step further.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Oda Nobunaga each had their own hidden agendas, but at this time neither of them was willing to challenge Yoshigan Shiba's dominance.
Therefore, the three of them successfully reached an agreement when they first met, and decided to send troops to Luo to avenge Ashikaga Yoshiki.
———
At the beginning of the new year, Shiba Yoshigan ascended the mountain in Gifu City, Mino Country, and raised his voice to spread the word to the world.
The memorial scolded the Miyoshi family for their treachery, tore up the peace agreement with the shogunate, and went to Luo to kill the general. The three good families are unfaithful and unrighteous, and people and gods are angry with them. The martial arts families in the world are all punishing them.
In the name of a direct survivor of the Genji family in Kawachi, he carried the golden seal of his sword as a seal, accompanied Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the daughter of the Ashikaga shogun family, and called on loyal men to go to Luo to kill the thieves as a royal servant.
The four generals of Shiba, Ashikaga, Oda, and Tokugawa formed a coalition, passed through Mino Province and entered Kitaomi River.
Kitanomi Asai family governor, Asai Nagamasa responded to the great cause and raised the flag to join the coalition camp. In recent years, the door has been opened.
There are tens of thousands of coalition soldiers, and it is impossible to enter nearby areas at the same time. Mobilizing and marching along the way will take a lot of time.
Five people, Yoshigan Shiba, Yoshiaki Ashikaga, Nobunaga Oda, Nagamasa Asai, and Ieyasu Tokugawa, met. The army will be assembled in Sawa Mountain Castle in Omi Province, and the troops will go straight to the Omi Rokkaku family.
Miyoshi Yoshitsugu of Kyoto was panicked after hearing the appeal, and quickly summoned the Miyoshi concubines in Beijing to discuss the matter.
———
Fushimi Castle is located in the southern suburbs of Kyoto. It oversees the Katsura River basin that runs through the Seta River and Yodogawa River. It is an important gateway town that protects Kyoto.
Last year, Ashikaga Yoshiteru temporarily entrusted Fushimi Castle to Akechi Mitsuhide due to lack of troops.
Unexpectedly, when Miyoshi went to Luo, Akechi Mitsuhide actually abandoned the city, causing Kyoto to fall without a fight and the general to die.
After the Miyoshi family occupied Kyoto, it became the temporary residence of the family governor Miyoshi Yoshitsugu.
The situation in Kyoto is complicated, and the ministers have evil intentions. Miyoshi Yoshitsugu and the ministers headed by Ise Sakyo do not get along happily.
Ninagawa, the second most powerful minister among the shogunate, was born, and the general was killed because he stood still, and he felt hesitant.
As a last resort, she accepted Akechi Mitsuhide's suggestion and came forward to righteously accuse the Ise Sakyo of being disloyal, hoping to exonerate the Ninagawa family from their responsibility in the Kyoto Incident.
The Ninagawa family's territory is in Tamba country. Ever since the Miyoshi family was driven out of Tamba country by the Hatano family, the guardian of Tamba, the relationship between the Miyoshi family and the Hatano family has been very bad.
The Hatano family was also dissatisfied with the Miyoshi family occupying Kyoto. Ninagawa is willing to stand in front of the stage and cause trouble for the Miyoshi family. Of course, the Hatano family will take care of the safety of her people and territory.
Miyoshi Yoshitsugu could not catch Ninagawa himself who was hiding in Tamba country, and the Ise Sadakyo could not unify the opinions among the shogunate.
After a winter, not only did the interior of the shogunate not return to calm, but it became increasingly chaotic. Even the funeral of Ashikaga Yoshiteru was hasty and he was buried in Shokokuji Temple.
The ministers were careless and allowed the Rinzai Sect of Xiangguo Temple to succeed. This caused the Tiantai Sect to be very dissatisfied and no longer paid attention to this false shogunate that was arrogant and unqualified and was coerced by the Miyoshi family.
The Ise Sect was suffering from internal and external troubles, and they could not take into account the military strength of the Miyoshi family stationed outside Kyoto.
In winter, when there was a shortage of food and clothing, the army took matters into its own hands to provide enough food and clothing, ruining the prosperous castle town of Kyoto.
Miyoshi Yoshitsugu asked for supplies several times, but was prevaricated by Ise Sadaka. When the army started looting, Ise Sadakyo was eager to coordinate with her, but he was too happy to pay attention to it.
As a result, the barbarians from the four countries burned, killed, and looted the castle towns of Kyoto, committing all kinds of evil, and even made the Ise Sadato Sect passive.
The shogunate has stood in Kyoto for more than two hundred years. The shogunate's ministers rely on mountains and rivers to feed themselves, and most of their wealth is in the castle towns of Kyoto.
This plunder caused heavy losses to the shogunate's faction, and they deeply hated the Miyoshi family. Together with the Ise Sadato, they also became the bad guys in the mouth of the concubines who associate with bandits.
Ise Sadakyo came down all winter and was so busy that he couldn't even touch the ground, but there was so much noise inside and outside that no one was around. The Ise family, a member of the political office and a prominent minister, is now a rat on the street, and everyone is shouting to beat him.
She was almost exhausted mentally and physically, and she aged more than twenty years in one winter. If he had known this earlier, he might as well have returned power to Ashikaga Yoshiteru, which would have led to such a miserable end.
When Ise Sadakyo received Miyoshi Yoshitsugu's request for her to go to Fushimi Castle for discussion, she simply ignored it.
She finally saw through that Sanhao's family was in a mountain city and had no support and no supplies.
Miyoshi Yoshitsugu also wants to fight against the coalition forces of Ashikaga Army God Shiba Yoshigan to prevent him from going to Luo with his great cause. Stop dreaming!
Ise Sadakyo has already begun to consider his family's retreat, and doesn't care at all about a Miyoshi family governor who is about to leave.
———
In the Fushimi Castle Council Hall, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu sat in the chief seat.
When the messenger reported the news that Ise Sadakyu was bedridden and unable to come, Miyoshi Yoshitsugi's face instantly turned ugly.
she sneered.
"She was the one who begged us to go to Luo earlier, and it was she who ignored my request later.
Now that there are foreign enemies, she is sick? I think she wants me to end the relationship, right? How can there be such a cheap thing in the world!
Send me troops to surround Ise's mansion. I want to see if she is sick! "
Matsunaga was shocked and hurriedly stopped him.
"No, Your Highness!"
Matsunaga has been depressed and unhappy this winter. She was cheated to death by her precious daughter.
When his daughter Matsunagamichi was instigated by Honda Masanobu to open up the passage to Yodo Castle without telling Matsunagahide and lead the Miyoshi army to attack Luo, Matsunagahide in Kyoto was still chatting with Ashikaga Yoshiteru.
As a result, the Miyoshi army rushed into Kyoto, and the Matsunaga family's troops burned, killed, and looted the palace of the Ashikaga Shogun's family. Some of the warriors even killed Ashikaga Teru-kun, a noble son.
In order to cover up the facts, Matsunaga Hide had no choice but to burn down the imperial palace, causing Odaisho and Ashikaga Terujun to die in the flames.
But this is still not enough.
In order to prevent Ashikaga Yoshiteru from being traced later, she worked tirelessly and borrowed the letter of Miyoshi Yoshitsugi in Matsunaga's hands to force the trio of Miyoshi to attack Nijo Castle and kill Ashikaga General.
Although this confused account was no longer clear, she had also completely reached a dead end.
No one can bear the blame for Luo Regicide in Miyoshi's family, and Matsuhisa Nagahide has already made plans to jump off the broken ship of Miyoshi's family.
On the one hand, she established a good relationship with the ministers in Kyoto and put all the responsibilities on the three good people to clear her name. On the other hand, she is also waiting for the rebels in Shangluo.
Miyoshi Yoshitsugu was not the Miyoshi Nagakei of the year. She had no political strategy to control the Kyoto shogunate, she only went to Luo Luo for the sake of Luo Luo.
A wise lord, as soon as the war begins, he must think about how to end it.
As for Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, this idiot, she just wanted to secure her position as the governor of the Miyoshi family, but she dragged the entire Miyoshi family into the abyss.
Honda Masanobu left, ran away from the Matsunaga family, and went to Akechi Mitsuhide.
Matsunaga hated her old friend Mitsuhide Akechi deeply, but at this moment, she wanted to get in touch with Mitsuhide Akechi.
If he could take advantage of his crime and make a counterattack, I wonder if Shiba Yiyin would be willing to accept it? Can Akechi Mitsuhide mediate for him?
Because of this dissatisfaction, Matsunagahide wished that Miyoshi Yoshitsugu was messing around in Kyoto and got out of here early, but Ise Sakyo couldn't kill him.
Ise Sakyo is a partner of the Miyoshi family in Kyoto. If she is removed, the business will be completely ruined. If Kyoto was destroyed by war, this would be a serious crime.
Matsushita Nagahide also wanted to use Kyoto as a proxy so that he could seek a new future. Of course, he hoped that Ise Sadakyo would help stabilize the situation first.
She stepped out of the queue and bowed, and said.
"Your Highness, although Ise Sakyo is hateful, she is one of the few ministers who is close to us. If we attack her, what will the ministers think of us?
Although the Kyoto shogunate is now very hostile to us, Ise Sakyo still controls the situation.
Our military strength stranded in Kyoto relies solely on supplies transported by the Yodogawa River, which is simply not enough.
We need Ise Sadakyo to help us raise supplies, and we need her to stabilize the local forces in Yamashiro Country for us.
Without Ise Sadaji, our logistics would have problems, and we would have to allocate most of our troops to suppress the local area.
The most important thing now is to concentrate on resisting Yutaisuo's Shangluo offensive. Other conflicts can be put aside first. "
Miyoshi Yoshitsugi's brows trembled when he heard the word "Odaisuo".
She is the adopted daughter of Miyoshi Nagakei, and her biological mother Juga Ichito was killed in Yamato by the Shiba Yinjin.
Tokawa Icun is the number one general of the Miyoshi family, and Miyoshi Yoshitsugi has idolized his mother since he was a child. She was afraid of Shiba Yiyin who could face him head-on and kill his mother.
Can I defeat someone who even my heroic mother cannot defeat?
Matsunagahide saw Miyoshi Yoshitsugu's tangled expression and sneered in his heart. Miyoshi Yoshitsugi is not the only one in Miyoshi's family who is afraid of Shiba Yoshiyoshi.
At that time, Sanhao and the four sisters were all here, Sanhao's family business was at its peak, and he went to Luo to seek power in the world.
The results of it? Jean Shiba Yoshiyin's violent attack interrupted Miyoshi Changqing's ambitions, and also lost Miyoshi Yoshihiro as the orthodox successor.
It was because Miyoshi Yoshihei was killed in the battle that Miyoshi Yoshitsugi joined the Miyoshi family and became the family governor, which led to the fierce conflicts within the Miyoshi family.
Everyone in the Mihaoshi family hates Sibo Yiyin, and is even more afraid of him. This time they were going to face off against the Ashikaga God of War, and everyone was terrified.
Seeing Matsuhisa Nagahide's few words, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu was speechless. Miyoshi and the other three looked at each other, feeling helpless.
As the leader of the three people, Miyoshi Nagaitsu has changed from supporting Matsunagahide to hating him.
Matsunagahide used Miyoshi Yoshitsugu's letter to force the trio to attack Nijo Castle, causing Ashikaga Yoshiteru to die in battle and leaving the trio in a state of eternal destruction.
Instead, she quibbled in front of Miyoshi Yoshitsugu and put all the blame for killing the general on Miyoshi and the other three people. Such treacherous sycophants really deserved to be killed!
But today's three good people are no longer the powerful warriors who dominate the two countries of Settsu and Tanba.
Tanba rebelled, and Settsu was taken over by Miyoshi Yasunaga, a neutral faction member of the Miyoshi family. The three of them were no longer rootless duckweeds, and their strength was not as good as before.
And because of the killing of the general, the three of them became street rats that everyone yelled at. They could no longer threaten Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, and they had lost their former power and reputation.
Sibo Yiyin went to Luo, and all the three good families were afraid of war and avoided war. Only three good people and three people have to fight.
Anyone can let Shiba Yiyin go, but the three good people who killed the general will definitely be killed. If you don't kill the three of them, how can you explain to the martial arts family in the world? How to reorganize the shogunate?
Mihao Changyi sighed and said.
"Don't panic, Governor, I have a plan."
Miyoshi Yoshitsugi was overjoyed.
"Oh? Mr. Changyi, please tell me."
Sanhao Changyi said solemnly.
"The allied forces of Godaisho Kamikawa are uniting with the Asai family to gather at Sawayama Castle. If they want to come to Kyoto, they must pass through the Rokkaku family's territory.
The Asai family and the Rokkaku family are like fire and water. The death of the general this time was also because the Rokkaku family attracted the Ashikaga family's military strength, leaving Kyoto empty, and we were able to win with one blow.
Now that the coalition forces are seeking justice for the general, will the Rokkaku family dare to let the coalition forces cross the border? Don't the Rokkaku family have any responsibility for the general's death?
Even if Rokkaku Yoshiharu wants to be punished and meritorious service, Asai Nagamasa is in the Shiba Yoshiyin formation, will she let go of this opportunity to strangle the Rokkaku family? "
Miyoshi Yoshitsugu pondered for a while, clapped his hands and praised.
"Mr. Changyi is right.
For the death of the general, my Sanhao family is not exempt from the blame, and the Rokkaku family is also involved. If you want to pass this time, the two families must join forces to resist the enemy.
Besides, the Rokkaku family's territory is still in front of us. If there is a need to be urgent, Rokkaku Yoshiharu, the governor of the Rokkaku family, should be the first to be anxious. "
Sanhao Changyi nodded.
"I sincerely request you to go to Kannonji Castle together with Miyoshi Masayasu and Iwanari Tomomichi to persuade Rokkaku Yoshiharu to fight against the powerful enemy together!"
Miyoshi Changyi is in high spirits, and next to her, Tomomichi Iwanari is also in high spirits. Iwanari Tomomichi is a diplomatic expert, and this matter involves her life and fortune, so of course she is willing to do her best.
On the contrary, Miyoshi Masayasu was a little depressed and was not optimistic about this battle. Seeing the two of them bowing down and begging for help, she smiled bitterly and kowtowed to the ground.
No one among the three good people could escape the crime of killing the general, so what could she do?
Follow it all the way to death.
