Before Yoshigan spoke, Oda Nobunaga had already jumped out to object.
she said.
"The imperial office should go to Luo sooner rather than later. Now that the martial arts families inside and outside Kyoto are all interested in our army, it is the best time to go to Luo.
If the delay is too long, the news will inevitably be leaked, making Miyoshi Yoshitsugi alert and making those who are interested in joining our army suspicious.
Since the Asai family is inconvenienced, His Highness Asai can withdraw the troops and reorganize first, and I am willing to bear the subsequent logistics and transportation. "
Asai Nagamasa narrowed his eyes and did not refute, but just looked at Shiba Yoshiyin in silence.
Oda Nobunaga was too preoccupied and wanted to seize Luo's credit, which was very unfair to the Asai family.
The Asai family mobilized peasants and soldiers at the most critical moment of spring plowing, and suffered the greatest losses. But now that spring plowing is halfway through, and the Oda family deploys farmers and soldiers again, the losses on both sides will be completely different.
Moreover, Oda Nobunaga would definitely not transfer people from the distant Mino Owari Ryogoku. She will instruct the northern Ise and southern Omi samurai who have taken refuge in her to mobilize peasants and soldiers.
The Wu families in these two places had just taken refuge with her, and there was no way they could resist her orders. You know, Oda Nobunaga's 30,000 troops are in Minami Omi, and can directly suppress the disobedient in the two places at any time.
Allowing these newly attached samurai families to mobilize peasants and soldiers would not affect the spring plowing of the Oda family and hurt the strength of the Oda family. Oda Nobunaga's calculation was too accurate.
The Oda family occupied the Suzuka Pass, and the road between Minami Omi and Kita Ise was smooth. The local samurai family mobilized peasants and soldiers to cooperate, so there would be no problem in transporting supplies.
To put it simply, after Oda Nobunaga captured Minami-Omi, the Asai family's logistical assistance no longer mattered. The Oda family had access to the Suzuka Pass on the southern route, and Asai Nagamasa's importance declined.
Is this not burning the bridge across the river? Asai Nagamasa was filled with hatred. She looked at Shiba Yiyin, hoping that the imperial court would come out to uphold justice.
Yiyin suddenly felt a headache.
He had known that Oda Nobunaga and Asai Nagamasa would inevitably have conflicts over the land of Minami Omi. He had always wanted to blur the disputes within the coalition forces and delayed it until Shangluo.
But Oda Nobunaga was too harsh on his solo diet and bullied the Asai family too much. As the general of the coalition forces, if Yiyin does not speak out, it will damage his image of fairness and strictness.
But he really couldn't say anything. This bastard Oda Nobunaga would never spit out the benefits of swallowing. If Yiyin comes out to uphold justice but cannot implement it, it will also damage its prestige.
In short, Yoshigan is full of righteousness, but his strength is far inferior to Oda Nobunaga and Asai Nagamasa. He actually feels very uncomfortable when talking and doing things. If your fist is not strong enough, you cannot get this justice even if you want to.
Yiyin thought for a while and decided to only talk about Luo's military affairs. As for the conflict over the distribution of interests between the Oda Asai family in Minami Omi, they cannot be involved.
Oda Nobunaga and Asai Nagamasa both stared at Yoshigan, but Yoshigan ignored them and turned his gaze elsewhere.
he asked Hosokawa Fujitaka.
"The concubines of Kyoto are ready to take action. Are the Hosokawa Mibuchi family also about to take action?"
Hosokawa Fujitaka is very aggrieved these days, because Yoshigami is angry at the indifferent behavior of Hosokawa Mibuchi's family and treats her coldly.
At this time, seeing that Yoshigan finally looked at him with a straight eye, Hosokawa Fujitaka cheered up, kowtowed to the ground and said.
"There is a message from the two family governors of Hosokawa Mibuchi. After the spring plowing, they will mobilize their troops and march to the Yamashiro Kingdom to participate in the battle of Shangluo."
Yiyin nodded.
The Hosokawa Mibuchi family is a traditional samurai family. They are not as wealthy as Oda Nobunaga and cannot afford to fight out of season. It is normal practice to mobilize after spring plowing.
Yoshigan asked Ashikaga Yoshiaki gently.
"Your Highness Yoshiaki, the battle of Kamiro is your first battle. Are you willing to go to Sakamoto Castle and lead the Ashikaga warriors to fight in Kyoto to avenge your sister?"
Ashikaga Yoshiaki had just returned to secular life. She had never touched a weapon since she was a child in a temple, so she naturally didn't know how to fight.
But after going to Luo, she became the new Ashikaga shogun, the leader of the world's samurai family. How could she not know how to fight? She watched and learned along the way, completing the first formation.
Considering that this should be the last battle in Shangluo, Yiyin hopes that she can lead an army alone and follow the coalition forces to gain important military qualifications.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki was stunned, and Wada Weimasa was beside him, desperately tugging at her sleeves, eager to help her agree.
Wada Weimasa thought that Shiba Yoshiyin was too wise. The Ashikaga Huimen are the core armed force of the Ashikaga family, and Niki Yoshimasa's ability to command them in Sakamoto Castle relies on the legacy of Ashikaga Yoshiteru.
But now, Yoshigan Shiba authorized them to be handed over to the command of Ashikaga Yoshiaki to participate in the Battle of Kamiro. This was to forcefully stuff benefits into Ashikaga Yoshiaki's pocket.
In the current situation, everyone is clamoring for a fight against the three good military forces in Kyoto. The final battle has not yet begun, and everyone believes that the Shangluo coalition will definitely win.
Yoshigan Shiba was sending troops to Ashikaga Yoshiaki and military honors to enrich her foundation for ruling the shogunate in the future.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki is not stupid, she doesn't need Wada Weimasa to remind herself. She was in a daze, but she didn't expect Sibo Yiyin to be so generous to her.
Yoshigami Shiba's prestige is growing day by day, and he is also the widow of Ashikaga Yoshiteru. As long as he gives an order, the Ashikaga residents of Sakamoto Castle will definitely obey his order.
But he handed over the core force of the Ashikaga family to Ashikaga Yoshiaki, and his intention to help her rise to power was very sincere.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki subconsciously touched his face. Is it because he looked so similar? Is Shiba Yoshigan's feelings for Ashikaga Yoshiteru so deep? Or is it because of other reasons?
She stopped thinking wildly, gathered her mind, and bowed.
"I want to go!"
Yiyin nodded in approval.
His being so polite to Ashikaga Yoshiaki is indeed a bit of a show-off.
Because he could not truly avenge Ashikaga Yoshiteru, he felt increasingly guilty. Supporting this sister-in-law who looked like Ashikaga Yoshiteru was indeed a compensatory generosity.
On the other hand, Oda Nobunaga's pace was too fast, making people breathless.
Yoshigan had to speed up the promotion of Ashikaga Yoshiaki, hoping that after the Kyoto shogunate was re-established, the samurai family of the shogunate could be united as soon as possible to resist the threat from the Oda family.
At this time, Asai Nagamasa's expression softened, and Oda Nobunaga's expression became ugly.
Yoshigan's arrangement with the Hosokawa Mibuchi family and Ashikaga Yoshiaki was obviously to delay going to Luo and wait for the completion of spring plowing before going out into battle.
This means agreeing to Asai Nagamasa's request and rejecting Oda Nobunaga's proposal.
It's just that Yoshigami didn't say it to his face, saving face for Oda Nobunaga. The reasons were also sufficient enough to leave Oda Nobunaga speechless.
There is no guarantee of victory in a war. When a lion fights a rabbit, he must use all his strength, let alone a battlefield that is constantly changing. Yoshihiro wanted to play steadily and ensure his chances of winning, and Oda Nobunaga had nothing to say.
The shogunate and the Tendai Sect were in the north, Sakamoto Castle and the Sangluo Allied Forces were in the east, and the Hosokawa Mibuchi family was in the west. The Miyoshi military forces of Yamashiro Kingdom were besieged on three sides.
However, this is not enough, the Jinjisbo Territory in the south also needs to be moved.
Yiyin's eyes narrowed. The time was ripe for him to return to Jisbo.
The Koga people surrendered, and the road from Koga County to Iga Country has been opened. He can use Koga County at any time to return to Konkisuba.
Politically speaking, except for Mitsuhide Akechi, who knows he has no way to argue and will be punished equally, other important ministers of the Spurs in recent years have taken the initiative to surrender to Yoshihiro.
Economically, Ishida Mitsunari came up with the first version of the Shibachu Fund pilot plan, and Yi Bank was ready to go back and announce it. Use loyalty funds to win over people's hearts and regain the actual control of the Sporland in recent times.
Militarily, in recent years, Sibo's military forces need to be mobilized to attack the Shancheng Kingdom from the south, and cooperate with various forces to form a strategic situation of encirclement on all sides to increase the probability of victory.
Yiyin thought for a moment and said.
"His Royal Highness Asai needs to go back once, and I also need to go back to Konkisbo Territory to mobilize the army to join the war.
The stakes in this battle are of great importance. There is no guarantee of victory but no defeat. Everything must be done to be foolproof. Please be patient for a while and wait for loyal people from all parties to respond to Luo.
please. "
Yiyin bowed slightly, and everyone kowtowed in return. No matter how unhappy Oda Nobunaga was at this moment, he had no choice but to endure it for now.
Yoshigan used the reason that he wanted to take back the money to excuse Asai Nagamasa. How could Oda Nobunaga object?
Oda Nobunaga looked at Asai Nagamasa, then at Shiba Yoshigan, and suddenly a sense of vigilance arose in his heart. Will Shiba Yoshigan watch him swallow Minami Omi?
He knew that he had ambitions to serve the world. When he was still in Owari, Oda Nobunaga never concealed his ambitions.
So the question is, after completing Kamikaze and establishing the shogunate, what attitude will Yoshihiro Saba take towards the Oda family?
Oda Nobunaga suddenly realized that his relationship with the Asai family could not be too tense, otherwise he would only push Asai Nagamasa to Shiba Yoshigan, which would be very detrimental to him.
The dispute between north and south Omi has been around for a long time, almost running through the entire 200-year history of the Ashikaga Shogunate. This was a deliberate act by successive Ashikaga shoguns in order to restrict the powerful Sasaki clan of Omi Kingdom.
Now Oda Nobunaga has taken Minami Omi, and Asai Nagamasa is entrenched in Kita Omi. Will the new shogunate continue to use the old method of instigating the dispute between north and south Omi to limit the expansion of the Oda family?
For those who have recently arrived, the Oda family is new to the family, and Asai Nagamasa is Oda Nobunaga's in-law. Now that Minami Omi has been obtained, stop being aggressive and give the shogunate an opportunity to take advantage.
After all, the two sides are allies, and they will gain more by uniting the Asai family than by being hostile to them.
Although Oda Nobunaga is still wary of the proud Asai Nagamasa, this does not prevent her from trying to survive this Omi eagle and pull her to her side.
What if Booying succeeds?
A smile appeared on Oda Nobunaga's lips, and his eyes looked at Asai Nagamasa with a hint of meaning.
She began to think about the demands of the Asai family and see if she could find a way to seek common ground while reserving differences and win over this powerful in-law in Kitaomi. As long as Asai Nagamasa no longer peeks at Minami Omi, everything else will be easy to talk about.
After taking over the land of Minami Omi, the Oda family's territory has expanded to two million koku, making it the most powerful feudal clan in the world. What followed was Oda Nobunaga's growing self-confidence.
She felt that she had enough strength and bargaining chips to make Asai Nagamasa bow her head with both soft and hard tactics.
Yoshigan Shiba and Nobunaga Oda smiled on their faces and kept playing games in secret. Ashikaga Yoshiaki on the side looked on with cold eyes and said nothing.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki glanced at Oda Nobunaga, and then looked carefully at Shiba Yoshigan. During this long winter, she experienced ups and downs and matured rapidly.
She is far inferior to Ashikaga Yoshiteru, the resolute and determined strong-hearted man. Maybe Qu Nengshen has learned the essence of the four words, and it is not easy to be a poor official.
The Battle of Kamiro was externally a campaign against the Rokkaku Miyoshi family, but within the coalition there was a raging undercurrent of Yoshigan Saba and Oda Nobunaga competing for the initiative.
At this moment, Ashikaga Yoshiaki is still a puppet who looks up to others. She had no right to be dissatisfied, so she could only bury all her emotions deep in her heart and wait for success in going to Luo and inherit the throne.
Are the golden scales just a thing in the pond? They turn into dragons when encountering wind and clouds.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki subconsciously clenched her fists. She will definitely become Ashikaga General and the most noble person in the world of the samurai family!
Both Shiba Yoshigan and Oda Nobunaga will eventually fall at her feet.
The three of them had their own concerns, but the scene was a happy one, and they finally decided on the strategic concept of encirclement on all sides after spring plowing.
———
Ueno Castle in Iga Province, Maeda looks to the northeast, which is the direction of Kannonji Castle.
During the spring plowing, my mother, Toshihisa Maeda, was busy directing the work, but she was hiding in the castle tower doing nothing.
My mother complained several times, but she always pretended to be naive and got away with it. But no one knew that her heart was filled with confusion and regret.
The master still hasn't come back.
Although Otani Yoshitsugi vowed after returning, she said that she had obtained the master's understanding and ensured the unity of Todo Takatora.
But when he thought that his master would rather go to Luo with that Oda Nobunaga than come back, Maeda's heart was filled with melancholy.
Maeda's interests were clear about what Oda Nobunaga did to his master back in Owari.
It can be said that the Lord has given up on himself over the years and never took his chastity seriously for the sake of the family fortune. This is all the fault of Oda Nobunaga!
If she hadn't ruined the Lord's innocence, the Lord would never have become like this!
Whenever he recalls the calmness of Shiba Yoshigan and his wife, Maeda doesn't feel happy, but feels extremely distressed. That is the numbness of the master who does not take his own body seriously!
Before the Lord went to Guandong, he even talked to himself. . I clearly promised him that I would ensure the stability of the near future and wait for his return.
But now, Akechi Mitsuhide secretly assassinated the general and turned the whole of Japan upside down. Although Maeda is innocent on the surface, she and her master both know in their hearts that she is guilty.
As the master gets closer and closer to him, Maeda is looking forward to meeting him again, but on the other hand, he is afraid of the moment when they meet him again. How can he see him again?
Ask yourself, for your own selfish desires, you ruined his important things. Do you think you are such a bastard? Do you still have the right to stand in front of him?
Thinking of this, Maeda lost his motivation for anything. She stayed in the castle tower all day long looking toward the Guanyin Temple City, surrounded by a pile of wine bottles, to soothe her sorrows.
I heard that my lord was scolding those who rebelled against the party at the gate of Guanyin Temple. He scolded the concubines so much that they were ashamed and opened the door to surrender.
What about yourself? Compared to those of the Rokkaku family, what good is my Maeda interest?
She looked down at her hands, thinking of her master's trust and her deeds, and couldn't help but sigh.
Me, shameless.
