Pu Shengshi fell to the ground and could not get up for a long time. Her heart was filled with gratitude.
The imperial authority held a high position, and he sympathized with her, a little Ji warrior, for her difficulties, and thought about her. His kindness was enough to make her repay the favor by breaking her body to pieces.
Yiyin felt proud to see that she knew how to be grateful.
He did not want to break up with Oda Nobunaga, so he was not willing to get involved in the people and affairs of Minami Omi to avoid getting involved in conflicts, but this did not prevent him from taking the opportunity to show kindness to the Kamao clan.
He took advantage of more and more places in Kamao's hometown. He led her to charge in battles, slept with her as a guard, and stole people for her to guard. This kind of cronies among cronies, no matter how hard you try to win over them.
Using a cheap favor by the way, it brought tears to the eyes of the people in the Pusheng clan, and Yiyin felt that it was worth it.

As Kenhide Kamao returned to Kannonji Castle, Rokkaku Yoshitsugu formally met with the Miyoshi trio and agreed to Miyoshi Yoshitsugu's alliance request.
The two sides agreed that after the spring plowing, the Miyoshi army of Yamashiro Kingdom would enter the land of Minami Omi to assist the Rokkaku family against Yoshigan Shiba's Kamiro army.
Just when Miyoshi and the three people returned to Kyoto with their covenant, they returned to Kyoto with great joy and announced the good news to Miyoshi Yoshitsugu.
The allied forces of Shiba, Oda, Asai, and Tokugawa gathered in Sawa Mountain Castle have been integrated.
The coalition forces elected Yoshigan Shiba as the general. As an orphan, Yoshiaki Ashikaga cried in front of the battle and complained about Miyoshi's treachery and vowed to avenge Ashikaga General.
When spring plowing had just begun, the rebels crossed the Aichi River and headed straight into Minami Omi.
Rokkaku Yoshiji was caught off guard. She never expected that the coalition forces would ignore the busy spring plowing and launch a direct attack on Luo. This was not in line with the Wu family's practice of fighting.
But the wealthy Oda Nobunaga never sticks to the old rules. The army led by the Oda family divided their forces and attacked, catching the Rokkaku family by surprise.
The Miyoshi family's reinforcements had not yet arrived. The Rokkaku retainers were busy with spring plowing and neglected defense. Minamiomi's defense line was instantly penetrated by tens of thousands of Sangluo coalition troops.
The coalition forces quickly captured several important towns in the eastern Minami Omi, such as Minasaku Castle and Wadayama Castle. Then, according to the plan, they gathered towards Guanyin Temple City and joined forces to besiege the city.
Under the rapid offensive of the Shangluo coalition forces, the Rokkaku Regiment quickly collapsed, and important ministers such as Shindo Kenmori, Goto Takaharu surrendered one after another.
What's interesting is that these people actually surrendered to Oda Nobunaga, not to the coalition general General Yoshigoshi Saba, as if they had already discussed it.
Yoshihiro Shiba pretended as if nothing had happened, and Asai Nagamasa was angry but could do nothing. Oda Nobunaga gathered most of the elites of the Rokkaku family, and he was very high-spirited for a while.
Among Rokkaku's important ministers, only Kamao Kenhide still followed Rokkaku Yoshihide and his mother and daughter in Guanyin Temple City, resisting stubbornly.
At this time, Shangluo's army had already wiped out eighteen branch cities around Guanyin Temple City. Guanyin Temple City was like an isolated city and was in dire straits.
———
Jizuo Castle is an important branch of Guanyin Temple Castle. Since the capture of this place, the coalition's main formation has been located here.
Mizakusan is located on a hill in the central plain of Minami Omi. To the north are Kannon Temple and Azuchi Village.
The hills in this plain are easy to defend but difficult to attack. Looking at Lake Biwa to the north, Suzuka Pass to the south, and going west to Luo, it is a battleground for military strategists.
Jizuocheng, residence.
Because the war went well, everyone was in a good mood. Under the rapid attack of the army, Guanyin Temple City was besieged, the retainers were defeated, and the Rokkaku family's defeat was imminent.
In particular, Oda Nobunaga sent troops and supplies. This time he took the opportunity to recruit a large number of Minami Omi samurai families, almost claiming to be the lord of Minami Omi.
she said with a smile.
"Otaisuo, you see this is a really good place. If we settle down one day, I might as well move my residence here."
Yiyin glanced at her and knew that her old habit of getting carried away with herself was back again. This person just suffered from the syndrome of not showing off and would die if he didn't show off, and he would offend everyone sooner or later.
Oda Nobunaga didn't care about Asai Nagamasa's ugly face next to him. He already regarded Minami Omi as his favorite, completely ignoring the feelings of others.
Yoshihiro originally didn't want Oda Nobunaga and Asai Nagamasa to have a good relationship. Although he didn't know why their relationship suddenly became so bad, he was unwilling to let go of the opportunity to provoke them.
So he happily followed the fire path.
"Jizuo Mountain is a bit south. If you want to be a residential city, Guanyin Temple City is better located."
Oda Nobunaga shook his head and said.
“The Rokkaku family is acting in a perverse and unpopular manner.
I don't want to use the old city of the rebellious party. It is better to build a new city near Antu Fishing Village. Well, let’s call it Azuchi Castle.
What do you think? "
Yoshigan sneered in his heart, Oda Nobunaga was speaking in a roundabout way and had no good intentions.
Her Gifu Castle is the Inabayama Castle of the Saito family, and Oda Nobunaga can also live there.
Saito Yoshiryu killed his mother and was unethical. We didn't live comfortably in Gifu City, and we didn't see Oda Nobunaga feeling shabby. Now he's being pretentious?
Oda Nobunaga was using words to test Yoshigan, wanting to see his attitude towards him recruiting Rokkaku retainers and annexing Minami Omi.
Of course, Yiyin would not express his position. He smiled and glanced at the big bosses present.
Tokugawa Ieyasu followed Oda Nobunaga closely. Although not many troops were sent this time, the Mikawa Princess samurai was not afraid of death and performed brilliantly. The first people to attack Jisaku Castle this time were the Tokugawa tribesmen.
It is said that the leading Tokugawa Iehime samurai received a commendation from Oda Nobunaga. Did Oda Nobunaga, that bastard, regard the Tokugawa family as his vassal?
Tokugawa Ieyasu was also tolerant, smiling as he watched Oda Nobunaga reward his subordinates, as if he didn't know that his political status was lowered.
As for Asai Nagamasa, she worked hard to mobilize farmers and soldiers to ensure the logistics supplies of the coalition forces despite her own harvest being affected this year. But no matter how hard she tried, it was a pity that she used her strength in the wrong place.
See what Oda Nobunaga did?
If you send the most troops and manage enough food, you will certainly get a lot of credit, and the benefits will naturally be shared more. But the unglamorous chore of transporting supplies was left to Asai Nagamasa without leaving a trace.
What about Oda Nobunaga himself? Use coercion and inducement, and use all means to bribe the Nanomi family. When the army entered Minami Omi, the local samurai saw that they could not defeat him, so they knelt down to Oda Nobunaga.
Asai Nagamasa did a lot of hard work, but Oda Nobunaga swallowed all the benefits in one gulp, and the Asai family didn't even have a drink of soup.
If you don't get enough benefits from going to Luo this time, it will be hard for Asai Nagamasa to explain when you go back.
The retainers' corps mobilized peasants and soldiers during the spring plowing season. There will definitely be poor harvests and reduced production this autumn. Asai Nagamasa is waiting to be complained about when he returns.
If you don't reap the benefits, you may also damage your own prestige. Nagamasa Asai's face looked ugly at this time, and he already knew that his situation was not good.
As for Ashikaga Yoshiaki, she has become a good baby these days, and she has finally seen through the truth. She was a p before she completed Kamikaze and sat on the post of Ashikaga General.
Now, her future is entirely in Yiyin's hands. Of course, she is respectful to Yiyin, this cheap brother-in-law, and does whatever she wants.
Political struggle educates people, and if they are well educated, they will mature quickly in one winter. They are truly worthy of being called a big dark dye vat.
Yiyin sat on the main seat, suddenly feeling a little bored. In what seems to be a harmonious atmosphere, each family deceives others and behaves differently, which is really boring.
He rubbed his brow with his hand and said.
"Everything is ready, let's start attacking the city tomorrow. Before Miyoshi Yoshitsugi in Kyoto can react, we have to capture Kannonji Castle first."
"Hi!"
The concubines below were kowtowing to the ground. Looking at the bowed backs of everyone, Yiyin felt tired.
The higher you go, the lonelier you get.
———
The next day, Yiyin and a group of daimyo came not far from Guanyin Temple to check the city defense.
Seeing the towering walls and tight defenses of Guanyin Temple City, Yiyin couldn't help frowning.
"This is not easy to fight."
Miyoshi Yoshitsugu must understand the principle of dying lips and cold teeth. Even if she doesn't understand, Miyoshi and the others will beg the family governor to send troops to rescue Rokkaku Yoshiharu.
The three good people kill the general. Others can pass, but they will definitely not be able to get through.
If the Ashikaga Shogun family is unable to retaliate, and the samurai family is shameless, everyone may yell a few times and continue to associate with the Miyoshi trio. Three drinks as a penalty, why not do it next time?
Unfortunately, the three of them were unlucky. Although General Ashikaga died, her fiancé was still there. As the widow of a general, Shiba Yiyin was known to be a good fighter.
The direct descendants of the Genji clan in Kawachi are not yet dead. Of course Yoshihiro Shiba has to step up and take care of the three good people. Otherwise, how will he gain a foothold in Konge in the future?
The Wu family feared power rather than virtue, so Yiyin had no choice but to control the field strongly to prevent the younger generation from following suit.
Hit with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches coming. Killing three good people today is to prevent a few rebellious people from appearing tomorrow.
Yiyin stood up and shouted, and all the recent martial arts families knew how to stand in line. Except for the idiot Rokkaku Yoshiharu, he had never seen anyone with a brain cramp who dared to stand on the side of Miyoshi's house and get beaten.
He has unparalleled righteousness and unrivaled achievements. Who is willing to offend him for the sake of three good things and three people?
Therefore, in order to save themselves, Miyoshi and the other three people will definitely send troops to help Rokkaku Yoshiji rescue the siege, otherwise they will really have no way to survive.
Yiyin cannot delay for too long. He must quickly go to Luo, expel the Miyoshi family, and establish a general to revive the shogunate.
The Wu family is selfish and difficult to coordinate. It is not easy for him to be the general of the coalition.
In particular, the bastard Oda Nobunaga took all the benefits and left nothing to Asai Nagamasa, which has caused rifts within the coalition.
If the war fails, the Oda Asai family will definitely cause trouble. If Yiyin does not handle it well, it will damage its own prestige.
Minami Omi is right in front of us. How can the conflicts between the two families be so easily coordinated?
Rather than being forced to seek justice, it would be better to quickly go to Luo and expel the Mihaoshi family. Then he sat in Kyoto and watched the two families fighting in Minami Omi. Yoshihiro was also happy to see Oda Nobunaga being restrained by Asai Nagamasa.
But seeing the tight defense of Guanyin Temple City, Yiyin became a little worried whether he would be delayed here for too long and affect his plan to go to Luo.
Oda Nobunaga on the side also said with a frown.
"Our army invaded Minami Omi, and Rokkaku Yoshiharu was in a state of confusion. It is said that Kannonji Castle was already in chaos at that time.
But who would have expected that Pu Shengxianxiu was so calm that he quickly calmed down the chaos in the city and organized the city defense with all his strength.
If it weren't for her loyalty to the master and courage to do her job. At this time, Rokkaku Yoshiji has probably abandoned the city and fled. It is a pity that we can take Kannonji Castle without a single blow. "
The main body of the Kamiro Rebel Army is the 30,000 soldiers of the Oda family. If they attack the city by force, Oda Nobunaga will suffer the greatest losses. Facing the tight defense of Guanyin Temple City, she was also troubled.
But it can be heard from her tone that compared to Shindo Kenmori and Goto Takaharu, these Rokkaku ministers are more aware of current affairs. Kenhide Kamao, who was trapped in the city with Yoshiharu Rokkaku, gained her respect even more.
Yoshigan glanced at Oda Nobunaga and suddenly became less worried.
As soon as he heard that Pu Shengxianxiu was carefully deploying the city defense, he knew that this was the petition she had prepared for him. She is just waiting for the opportunity, and will attack at any time.
This mother from Pusheng's hometown is also cunning and cunning.
He obviously wanted to join Oda Nobunaga, but he was afraid of being looked down upon. At this moment, he helped Rokkaku Yoshiharu with such sincerity and acted like a loyal minister, which made the surrendered Rokkaku retainers feel ashamed.
At this time, both Oda Nobunaga and Rokkaku surrendered highly to Kamao Kenhide's character. This will be of great help for her to earn a living at the Oda family in the future.
Yiyin calmed down and began to think about how to give Pu Shengxianxiu a step to step down, so that she could switch sides without being abrupt.
Oda Nobunaga didn't know the intricate tacit understanding between Yoshigan and Kamao Kenhide. She was really worried about the consequences of failing to attack the city.
So, she said.
“The Imperial Office, I heard that Pu Sheng Xianxiu’s daughter is serving under your command, why not ask her to write a letter to Pu Sheng Xianxiu.
Just say that I, Oda Nobunaga, value her character and loyalty. A good bird chooses a tree to roost in. Hexagonal rulers are unkind and unjust. They are obedient and attached to thieves. They are not wise masters.
As long as she is willing to open the city and surrender, I guarantee that she will not lose her territory and will have a brighter future. "
Yoshigan glanced at Oda Nobunaga, who was swearing, and felt a little annoyed.
Does this bastard really think of himself as the leader of Shangluo? I'm the! I am the general of the coalition forces!
You, Oda Nobunaga, represent the Shangluo Allied Forces in recruiting surrenders and rebels. Who do I, Yoshihiro Shiba, count to? Carpool?
Yiyin made up his mind and decided to take a little risk. Although he didn't want to break up with Oda Nobunaga, this man was always pushing his nose to the limit and never knew how to hold back.
If you want her to bow her head, you can only be stronger than her.
If Yiyin doesn't want to cause friction with her, he must find his place elsewhere and show his strong dominance.
He looked at the city wall of Guanyin Temple City, his eyes becoming brighter and sharper.
He knew that Kenhide Kamohide was going to surrender, and Kenhide Kamohide knew that he knew that he was going to surrender, but Oda Nobunaga did not know that Kenhide Kamohide was going to surrender.
Taking advantage of this information gap, Yiyin can create an opportunity to pretend.
He wanted to perform in person, so that Kenhide Kamamao could justifiably join the rebels, and let Oda Nobunaga understand who is the leader of Shangluo!
After thinking clearly in his mind, Yoshiyin snorted coldly and said to Oda Nobunaga.
"I am a direct descendant of the Genji family in Hanoi. I hold a sword in my hand, wear a golden seal on my body, and have a white flag on my back. Going to Luo to avenge the general is the most important thing in the world.
The six-cornered righteousness is stubborn and ineffective. If you follow the thieves and rebel, your sins will not be forgiven! The heavenly soldiers of the rebel army are here, and all the ladies of the Rokkajia family have no choice but to surrender unconditionally. Please beg my forgiveness!
write a letter? What letter to write? Do you want me to promise a favor to a rebellious thief? Daydreaming! "
