Traditionally, the upper level of the martial arts family controlled the lower level by sending officials to serve as local servants. The so-called winning over people's hearts means showing favor to these landowners, big and small.
This traditional way of ruling by the Wu family has become increasingly difficult to maintain in a century of chaos. In order to cope with the expanding war, the daimyo exploited the villages more and more harshly.
The original gameplay could not meet the increasing material needs of the upper-class martial arts families, and the ownership of the land changed again.
The daimyo began to deprive the villages of excessive autonomy, regard all the wealth in the territory as their own financial resources, and further squeeze the output of the land, including mountains, rivers and forests.
They relied on land inspections to carry out land redistribution, and through the separation of peasants and soldiers, they dismantled the administrative, judicial, public security and other autonomous powers of the villages.
The power within the samurai's territory is accelerating to gather in the hands of the daimyo. This is also the strengthening of the one-yuan control of the daimyo in the Warring States Period that is different from the traditional guardian daimyo.
The daimyo who went the most radical and farthest was Oda Nobunaga, who integrated the century-old reform policy into himself.
In order to improve her own strength, she even encouraged Ashigaru and businessmen to improve the status of the civilian class and harm the interests of the entire samurai class.
With the emergence of tycoons in troubled times, the world of the Wu family is undergoing drastic changes. As the most traditional birthplace of the Wu family, the local villages in Guanbazhou still maintain considerable autonomy.
This is also a major reason why the local samurai family cannot defeat the Hojo family. The Hojo family's tax reform is also an innovation, and the Hojo family is also a newly rising Sengoku daimyo.
As the highest moral template of the traditional martial arts family, Yiyin is using the martial arts tradition to enhance his own strength.
Progress is a kind of power, and fear of progress is not a kind of power.
The stubborn conservatives are afraid that the reformists will take away everything they have, and the Wu family is afraid that the civilian class will rise up and subvert the five hundred years of privileges that the Wu family has gained with iron and blood.
Yoshigan started from Owari's ignorance, grew up in war after war, and finally established the cornerstone for the long-term maintenance of the Shiba family.
The strategy of occupying the magpie's nest, Shiba Zhong Foundation, New Life Movement, Samurai Ethics Promotion Association, Shiba New Thought.
These strategic plans, policies and systems, and ideological understandings all subtly deified Shiba Yiyin himself, making him the living god who defaults to all Ji warriors and protects the tradition of the samurai family.
This trip south made Yiyin keenly aware of the grassroots military family's aversion to the turbulence of the troubled times and their desire to restore order to the military family.
After he received the support of the husbands of the samurai family headed by Miaoyin monk in Jinshan Castle, he simply bypassed the famous families in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River at Shima Sheng Mengti point, and visited more than 200 villages in the four counties.
The relationship between the upper and lower echelons of the Wu family has long been severed. Generally, the lords and acting officials who want to go to the countryside to collect grain must be fully armed and bring all the troops with them.
As the leader of the followers, why is Daxiong Chaoxiu so good at fighting? Because collecting grain and paying taxes is actually no different from going to the countryside to grab grain.
The regiment going to the countryside has fewer men and horses, and their combat effectiveness is weakened. They may be killed by villagers with evil intentions, and their bodies will not be found, let alone held accountable.
Guanbazhou is the place where the Wu family rose to prominence. Unlike other places where there are many natural villages formed by savages, there are few savages in the embarrassment of being outside the protective system.
The villages here were all established by the royal family of the Kamakura shogunate, and they received royal favors to open up and divide their families. It can be said that every family has a rich ancestor.
Although the local servants are poor, their family status is still there, and their husbands also participate in fraternity activities.
It's funny to say that the harder the Ji warriors fight, the more the husbands fear that their family will be defeated and the whole family will be slaughtered.
In order to continue a bit of blood for their heirs after the defeat, the husbands' interactions were far more sincere and credible than the negotiations between the warriors. The boys are actually hugging each other for warmth and protecting each other.
The six-sentence dream proclaimed by Yiyin in Jinshan Castle spread rapidly through the channels of the brotherhood, and the response among the men of the samurai family in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River was extremely enthusiastic.
From the well-known husband to the village husband, everyone expressed a friendly and welcoming attitude towards Yiyin's inspection in the countryside.
Monk Miaoyin has been a monk for many years, and this time he did not shy away from asking his wife, Yoshiaki Shige, to send the gift of Hojo Genan out of the country, which was enough for Yiyin.
Yiyin found that he seemed to be able to travel smoothly without having to deal with the local famous families, so he might as well stop pretending to meet each other and say some nonsense that no one believed, and go directly to the countryside.
By the end of autumn and the winter solstice, when the first snow gradually disappeared, he had almost reached Katsushika County in the south of the Edo Territory, and servants from nearby areas came to pay him a visit.
———
Takasago Village is located on the lower reaches of the Hikifune River and on the west bank of the Tone River outlet. Not far from the east bank is Kokufudai, the important town of the Shimo-shogunate.
This place has been suffering from the flooding of the Tone River all year round. In the past two years, the sun has been scorching in the spring and summer, and the river has caused disasters in the summer and autumn. Both fire and water destroyed the food harvest, and the locals had no way to survive.
When Yiyin arrived, the local area had entered the dry season, light snow was falling, and everything was depressed.
The farmers in the village donated their best housing, which was just a shelf with air leakage from all sides. Pushengshixiang led his colleagues to block the holes on all sides, and finally managed to warm the house.
Yiyin was sitting in front of the bonfire in the house, looking at the boiling water in the iron pot. It was only because of his noble status that he could have an unlimited supply of firewood.
Naomasa Ii carefully handed over a cup of tea. A tea stem floated on the surface. He didn't know what kind of tea it was. It looked shabby.
But this house, this iron pot, this firewood, and this tea are all beyond the reach of the locals. Only if it is as noble as silver, they are willing to take it out and offer it to the Lord.
Not far from Yiyin, there is a group of well-dressed Ji warriors. But if you look carefully, you can see that the clothes on her body don't fit very well. I'm afraid that they are reluctant to wear them and gradually fall out of fit.
A group of people watched Yiyin taking the tea blankly, silently, and did not dare to make a sound.
After a while, Yiyin sighed and squeezed out two tears. A group of Ji warriors bowed hurriedly, and the leader said.
"I'm very sorry. Tsudoden has been wronged by the poorness of the village."
Yiyin shook his head and said.
"I really didn't expect that your life would be so embarrassing. As a member of Genji in Hanoi, I feel very ashamed.
I should be the one to apologize to you for making the royal family live in such an undignified way. I'm very sorry. "
He bowed slightly, and a group of Ji warriors kowtowed to the ground in a hurry, not daring to say a word.
Yiyin pointed to the imperial white flag behind him and said.
"The direct descendants of the Genji family in Kawachi once made an appointment with the imperial family, and they shared the world with the imperial family.
Nowadays, the descendants of the Wu family are fighting with each other, causing the Wu family's moral integrity to be lost and their lives to be difficult. I am truly heartbroken and ashamed of you. "
Yiyin sighed again, waved to them, and said.
"Please come over and talk."
A group of Ji warriors, you look at me, I look at you, the leader of the group finally bowed and said.
"The foreign ministers are in trouble."
She took the lead and approached the campfire, followed by the others.
Seeing a group of black people squeezing over, Ii Naomasa next to Yoshigan couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and he rubbed his palms holding the handle of the knife a few times.
Yiyin quietly held her hand and shook his head slightly at her. This girl's little hands were quite slippery.
These days, Tongxin people have been very vigilant. Rural villages have always been lawless, and local lords are reluctant to inspect and wander around.
Yiyin led dozens of sympathizers throughout more than 200 villages, making Kamou clan nervous every day, and even the sympathizers such as Ii Naomasa also became neurotic.
The state of Tongxinzhong seemed to Yiyin to be too cautious. When he goes to the countryside, the husbands of the brotherhood will unblock the joints, with one hand holding the white flag, and the other hand providing relief food. Who will be unfavorable to him?
The local Guanbazhou martial arts family is extremely conservative. The brotherhood represents the mutual assistance of blood relatives. The royal white flag represents the dignity of the direct descendants of the Genji family in Hanoi. Disaster relief food is what everyone is eagerly looking forward to.
Whoever attacked Yoshihiro at this time, not to mention whether Uesugi Teruhora went crazy or not, had an inextricable feud with the local servants from more than 200 villages.
As long as Yiyin is careful, his safety is actually guaranteed, which is why he insists on going to the countryside.
Everyone knows that going to the countryside is hard and unsafe, but he decided to go like this.
Going to the countryside is a manifesto, going to the countryside is a propaganda team, and going to the countryside is a seed drill.
On this trip to the countryside, Yi Yin will personally take action to spread Sibo's new ideas to end the war to the grassroots martial arts in Guanbazhou.
As the top nobleman in the Wu family, his move has far-reaching significance.
Yiyin asked the Ji warriors to come closer and said to the leader.
"Is your name Baura?"
"Hi! Foreign Minister Yaura, please give me your permission, Your Highness Tsudo."
Yiyin shook his head slightly, he was a country martial artist who couldn't even speak polite words and was always stuck. She felt uncomfortable saying compliments, and Yiyin also found it difficult to listen, so she simply got to the point.
He took out a document, handed it to the confused Yaura, and said.
"This is an additional document sent by the Wu Family Ethics Promotion Association just now. It is a specific distribution plan for the eight thousand stone scholarship.
As you know, I just visited more than 200 villages in the four counties of the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River, and everything I passed was shocking.
The harvests in each village have dropped sharply this year, and almost all of the more than 20 villages near your outlet have experienced no harvest. I have already marked the details of the plan, and the scholarship will be heavily favored for you.
As the saying goes, a half-grown daughter will overwhelm her mother.
Eight thousand shi of grain is used as a year's student ration, and each child can get two shi to ensure that they have enough to eat. The journey will take the Hokuriku Highway, and accommodation will be provided free of charge by Konki Spurei.
You have more than 20 villages. I will give each village three places. If you think there is no problem, go back and prepare, and someone will come to pick up the children. "
Bapu looked at Yiyin who was talking eloquently and was speechless. I have never seen such a nobleman from the Wu family. There is no red tape, every word is true, and he considers us people.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Yiyin thought she had a misunderstanding and explained.
"I know your life is not easy. Your children are also part of the family's workforce and have to go to the fields to help.
But this year there is no food to eat, leaving the children to starve, why not go to recent times to see the world, you can just think that they are fleeing famine.
They will not neglect their studies, there will be someone to teach them martial arts, writing, and arithmetic. I assure you with the Royal White Flag that this is a rescue for the heirs of the Wu family facilitated by the Brotherhood. Please rest assured. "
Seeing that Yiyin General had raised the royal white flag, he could come out to testify. Of course, these humble people couldn't bear it, so one man came out and bowed.
"Foreign Minister Sango, pay your respects to Tsudo-don.
It's not that we are dissatisfied with your arrangement, it's just that we really don't know how to repay your kindness. "
Bapu also came back to his senses at this moment and nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, your great kindness."
Yiyin glanced at the two of them and shook his head.
“If you want to thank, go back and thank your husbands.
This matter was applied by the four-gun fraternity and accepted by the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association. The contact person is the husband of each family, and the funds come from the special food provided by the Wu Family Ethics Promotion Association.
This is the first joint operation between the local brotherhood and the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association. I just went to the countryside to get the paperwork to give you a heads up.
Even if I don't tell you, each husband will inform you after you go back. "
Yaura and Sango looked at each other, never expecting Yoshigan to give such an answer, leaving them at a loss as to how to answer the question.
In general, if the martial arts family is right, everyone expresses their loyalty, and then joins the Sibo family to establish a plug-in affiliation, isn't it possible? But this Tsudo-don, why doesn't he play according to the routine?
Yiyin is well aware of the thoughts of these martial arts families.
Yoshihiro was like rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the four prefectures. Yura, Nagao, Narita, Ota and other famous families were all staring at him, fearing that he would poach their own territory.
If Yiyin follows the old path of the Wu family's game and establishes an ambiguous relationship with these villages, it will definitely arouse the resentment of the local famous families. This is to take food from their bowls.
But Yiyin just didn't do that, he had a better way. That is to use the channels of the Brotherhood to form an effective mechanism in a way that does not arouse the resentment of local famous families.
The local servants in the core area of Kan Hachishu, at worst, are from the Musashi Seven Party, including a branch of the Bando Hachihei family and the blood of the Minamoto family.
The fraternity here has close ties and contacts extend deep into the village. These Wu family husbands would definitely be happy to have the brotherhood come forward to formulate a student aid plan.
As Yi Yin said, it is called student aid, but in fact it is an escape from poverty. If there is nothing to eat at home, you can go abroad to study and see the world, and still have enough to eat. No fool would do such a good thing.
The specific student assistance process is handled by the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association in charge of Da Zang Chang'an. The brothers are responsible for setting up a stage in front of them to sing and interact with each other, so that the local martial arts members can feel at ease.
There is always something wrong with the way people like Yaura Sango look at Yoshiyin. They couldn't figure it out. How could a man who was just a submissive and useless person at home accomplish such a big thing?
Yiyin hopes that the Brotherhood can stand up and assume some social responsibilities. If he hopes that his husbands will become a supporter of his truce idea, he must improve their status and influence.
The Wu family attaches great importance to the inheritance of family business, and heirs are the most important part of it.
Warrior Ji may be disgusted by her husband's involvement in politics. But Ji Ji will definitely affirm and approve of her husband taking care of the children.
If Yiyin can build the Brotherhood into a husband's union in a world where women respect women, and base its actions on the political correctness of caring for children, the Brotherhood's influence can legitimately grow.
