Looking at the military information document in front of him, Yiyin felt a little dazed.
As his status became higher and higher, he became farther and farther away from the battlefield. With his current status, it is not easy to dominate the battlefield.
How do you count the merits of fighting for the king? Besides, the warriors under his command would rather he stay behind and reward everyone than take risks in battle.
The Shiba family is not a flourishing old samurai family like the Takeda family and the Hojo family. After Shiba's revival, he became a single seedling.
If he was killed by a stray arrow on the battlefield, the Ji warriors who were working under the name of the Shiba family would be blinded.
After learning to let go, the vivid human lives on the battlefield gradually turned into numbers on paper. Without seeing the sight of flesh and blood flying around, Yiyin felt that his heart was getting harder and harder.
He was just thinking about something, feeling that he was becoming a cold and ruthless superior, when there was a knock on the door from outside.
"Come in."
Akechi Mitsuhide entered and bowed to the ground.
"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"
Yoshigan pushed the battle report he had read several times in front of Akechi Mitsuhide and said.
"Let's see."
There was silence in the room, except for the sound of Mitsuhide Akechi shuffling papers. After a while, Akechi Mitsuhide praised.
"Maeda Yoshida is indeed a fierce general. With only fifteen reserve troops of the former army, he defeated Miyoshi Yoshitsugu's army.
However, before the five reserve units of the rear army led by Otani Yoshitsugi were in place, Maeda took the initiative and participated in the joint battle, resulting in some heavy casualties. "
Yoshigan raised his eyebrows. The first half of Akechi Mitsuhide's sentence seemed to be an appreciation, but with the second half, it turned into an accusation, as if he was saying that Maeda was eager for quick success and the general did not do a good job.
Looking at Akechi Mitsuhide's gentle and elegant smile, Yoshiyin couldn't help but snorted.
Akechi Mitsuhide's face became frightened, he kowtowed to the ground and said.
"I have spoken nonsense, please punish me."
This was what bothered Yoshigan the most about Mitsuhide Akechi. When this guy was not at fault, he liked to admit his mistakes and pretend to be good, but he never felt that he was at fault when something big happened.
That little mouth confuses right and wrong, referring to a deer as a horse, and justifies it with righteousness. Sometimes Yiyin really wants to press her head on her breasts, not wanting to listen to her nonsense, he just wants her to bite him.
At this time, Akechi Mitsuhide said a few words about the battle situation at Jiuboji Temple. Even if he criticized it implicitly, it was not slander. What was wrong with it? If Yiyin warned her because of this, wouldn't he become a coward?
But if Yoshigan ignores him, Akechi Mitsuhide's assertions about Maeda's interests are so vicious that it will be hard to hear, as if Yoshigan's ability to acquiesce to Maeda's interests is not enough to be a general.
Yoshihiro is now supporting Maeda's interests as the general general of the recent Shiba camp. Of course, she cannot allow anyone to slander her.
Therefore, Yiyin sneered, took off the ribs on the knife holder next to him, and asked.
"Guangxiu, a man and a woman are alone in a room. The man stabs the woman in front of her. What's the explanation?"
Akechi Mitsuhide's eyes flashed.
"I thought it was self-defense, and I hope that the woman can retreat in spite of the difficulties so that the reputation of the two of them can be preserved."
Yiyin put the ribs back on the knife rest and said coldly.
"I don't think so. Maybe the man is trying the sword to see if the woman has the courage to overcome difficulties, so that she can trust her for the rest of her life."
Akechi Mitsuhide covered his mouth and chuckled.
"Your Majesty is right."
Yiyin looked at her and said seriously.
“Everyone has two mouths, and we can only let other people say whether we are advancing or retreating. How can we stop everyone’s mouths?
However, the flash of swords and shadows on the battlefield cannot deceive anyone. This time Maeda braved the difficulties and showed his loyalty. The heavy casualties among her subordinates were actually my responsibility.
I thought that with the help of Fujitaka Hosokawa, Takamasa Hatakeyama and Haru Mibuchi would understand the importance and not embarrass Maeda's interests too much.
Oh, I didn’t expect that I was so self-righteous. I really thought that everyone in the world would give me three points of thin noodles. "
Akechi Mitsuhide glanced at his master, a little surprised. This time the battle at Jiubao Temple seemed to have angered his master, and he could not suppress the anger in his tone.
Hatakeyama Takamasa and Mibuchi Haru were too ignorant. They believed that Shiba Yoshigan was a benevolent and righteous king who could be bullied. They were not cooperative with Maeda's interests and almost ruined the war.
But they also didn't think about it. If Maeda's interests were really disgraced and ruined the master's intention to integrate the military forces of the recent wave camp, what good fruits could they reap?
Perhaps it was because the Lord had been traveling between Kanto and Kanto in recent years. Hatakeyama Takamasa and Mibuchi Haru had little contact with the Lord, and their impressions of him were still the same as a year ago, or even earlier.
But Mitsuhide Akechi knows that the king has matured very quickly politically in these years, almost changing every year, becoming more and more unfathomable.
She thought for a moment and said.
"Hatakeyama Takamasa and Mibuchi Haruka disappointed you, but Hosokawa Fujitaka did not live up to your expectations.
Before the battle of Jiuboji, she supported Maeda's interests at the military meeting against all opinions. During the joint battle, she discovered that the situation was unfavorable and dispatched the entire army in time to ensure the victory of the joint battle.
I think Hosokawa Fujitaka should take the lead in this battle. "
Yoshigan looked helplessly at Akechi Mitsuhide, I had already picked up a knife to make a metaphor, but you, a scheming fox, are still pretending to be confused, insisting on belittling Maeda's interests and promoting Hosokawa Fujitaka.
Yoshigine knew why Akechi Mitsuhide wanted to exalt Hosokawa Fujitaka's achievements, but he just didn't want to make Akechi Mitsuhide happy, so he said coldly.
"That's what she owes me."
Akechi Mitsuhide was suddenly speechless. Even though she was eloquent, she was speechless at this moment.
She pimped Hosokawa Fujitaka and let her fall in love with her sweetheart. This matter is disgusting both emotionally and rationally.
So when Yiyin was not prepared to argue with her and revealed the matter, he could directly silence her and kill her.
The sinister person like Akechi Mitsuhide could only lower his head and speak at this time.
"Your Majesty is right."
Yoshigan raised his chin and stretched out his hand proudly. Akechi Mitsuhide respectfully returned the battle report with both hands. Yoshigan clicked on the battle report and said.
“Hosokawa Fujitaka’s reaction on the battlefield was very quick, but what really moved me was the girls in the Western Expedition Student Army.
They obviously don't have to participate in the war, and they obviously don't even have the weapons and equipment, but they dare to risk their lives and move forward bravely.
Because they dispatched in time and quickly broke through the enemy's southern line, Shinohara Chofusa was forced to turn his head to fight and had no time to take care of the Chinese army. Maeda's interests were able to break through Miyoshi Yoshitsugu's main formation in one go.
Unfortunately, these students were stained with blood on the battlefield. They suffered more than a hundred casualties, more than half were killed, and the rest were all injured. They are really my good students, and they are worthy of their vows.
Nizi Katsuhisa must give me an explanation why my good students did not receive enough logistical supplies!
How does the military depot work? Just let these girls wear ashigaru and go into battle. I will hold the military station responsible for its conduct! "
Yiyin's anger is real.
He finally established long-term and reliable connections with more than 200 villages in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River through more than 200 students.
These students' personal worship of him and their firm support for him will be his political foundation for influencing the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River in the future.
Now, half of these future flowers have been lost in Hanoi before they return to Kanto.
Those bastards like Hatakeyama Takamasa, Mibuchi Haru, and Mibuchi Fujihide who were just sitting on the sidelines, and Nizi Katsuhisa, the butler who controlled the logistics, of course Yoshihiro wanted to settle the score with them.
It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people. It is not easy to cultivate a new generation that agrees with Sibo's new ideas. This matter is the core of Yiyin's Kanto strategy, and he is almost heartbroken now.
Of course Akechi Mitsuhide knew why Yoshigan was angry, but Nizi Katsuki's good-natured behavior finally paid off. At this time, Akechi Mitsuhide, a poisonous person, said something fair.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. It is none of Nizi Shengjiu's business at this time.
The affairs of overseas students in Kanto are handled by the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association. In recent years, Sibo has only provided assistance and has no right to interfere in specific affairs.
This time, foreign students formed a voluntary student army for the Western Expedition, and the Wujia Yili Promotion Association gave some support. But as you know, the student aid program is very expensive, so the budget for the student army is very small.
Everyone thought that the student army's request for war was just a political attitude. Maeda's interests were not prepared to let them go into battle. They just stayed on the southern front. The lack of armaments was understandable.
It can only be said that these young people are more passionate and brave than anyone imagined. "
Yiyin waved his hand.
"Okay, you don't have to intercede for Nizi Shengjiu. I'm used to seeing you burying people behind their backs. Now I'm really not used to saying good things for people.
I have already made a decision regarding the student army. The pensions for all those who died in battle shall be treated the same as the Hime Samurai of Maeda's Benefit Division. "
Akechi Mitsuhide frowned.
"Your Majesty, will you let them join the army?"
Yiyin nodded.
"Yes, they died fighting for the Shiba family, and I gave them the Shiba family, which is fair.
These children are not married, so their establishment will be given to their sisters. For those who do not have sisters, the family will allocate places.
The Kanto Princess Samurai who have been established will enjoy all the benefits of the Princess Warriors within the establishment. The Kanto Spur Territory is responsible for solving their worries and allows their families to move to the Kanto Spur Territory.
I will write to Shima Shengmu and ask her to treat everyone equally and not allow things that make people shed blood and tears. "
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled.
"The Kamao clan is going to have a headache. There are quite a lot of military merit lists reported by Maeda this time. With this batch of student soldiers, the new Shiba establishment will not be less than 300 people, right?"
Yiyin said solemnly.
"If I can't get Shiba's establishment even if I fight for the Shiba family, then what face do I have to face those Ji warriors who are willing to die for the Shiba family?
If the Hamo family can't even understand this truth, then her post as the head of the Tongxin Secretariat can be relinquished.
Not only do I want to organize the student armies who died, I will also not treat the surviving student armies poorly.
Starting today, the Wu Family Revival Association has officially become a subordinate organization of the Wu Family Principles Promotion Association.
Mikami Momochi made meritorious service in the battle with Yua Kito, and was promoted to the first president and vice president of the Samurai Revival Association, with the right to participate in the management of the Samurai Giri Promotion Association. "
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled and said nothing.
The Shiba family's establishment is very expensive, and the entire Shiba Territory has only had more than a thousand establishments in recent years. The sudden increase of more than 300 establishments will give the Hamo clan a headache for a long time.
There is a complete set of procedures for Sibo's selection, including recruiting new recruits, receiving education, central internship, and work arrangements. The entire process requires money and effort.
Now that there is a sudden new demand for more than 300 high-quality jobs, the Kamei clan must be in a hurry and not thinking about the bottom.
But the master has already set the tone for this matter, and the Kamao clan can only bite the bullet and complete it. Even if this matter does not comply with Shiba's selection procedures, the Lord's orders always come first.
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded.
"What your Majesty said is that the sky is vast and the earth is vast, and military merit is the greatest. If you do not reward meritorious deeds, it will be difficult to convince the public.
Hosokawa Fujitaka has done a great job this time. I beg your Majesty to have mercy on her and not reject her because of what happened that night.
As long as we firmly win over Hosokawa Fujitaka, the integration of local powerful factions and the win-over of prominent shogunate families will achieve twice the result with half the effort. "
After saying that, Akechi Mitsuhide bowed deeply, and Yoshigan looked at her with a complicated expression.
In fact, Yoshigami didn't care that Hosokawa Fujitaka fell in love with him, but he had a great time doing it. His anger was shown to Akechi Mitsuhide and Kamao Ujigo.
From Yiyin's point of view, Hosokawa Fujitaka, who admires him and has had a physical relationship with him, is indeed the most trustworthy person among the local powerful factions. It is very beneficial to him to elevate her power.
Hatakeyama Takamasa, the loyal dog, and Mibuchi Haruka, the aunt, their performances before and after the battle at Kyubouji Temple greatly disappointed Yoshigan.
This made Yoshigami inevitably gravitate toward Hosokawa Fujitaka, feeling that she was more trustworthy, and he also quite recognized Akechi Mitsuhide's words.
he asked.
"What do you want for Hosokawa Fujitaka?"
Akechi Mitsuhide was refreshed. She was most afraid that her master would be angry with Hosokawa Fujitaka because of the lingering anger from that night, and her efforts would be in vain.
Now that she heard her master loosen his tone, she also breathed a sigh of relief. As expected, the Lord endured the humiliation and accepted Hosokawa Fujitaka for the sake of Shiba's great cause.
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled.
"Actually, before I came here, I received a letter from Hosokawa Fujitaka."
Yiyin raised his eyebrows.
"She moves very quickly. She just wants to get benefits after the battle?"
Akechi Mitsuhide bowed.
"You have misunderstood her. She is sincerely considering your Majesty now."
Yiyin snorted.
"What did she say in the letter?"
Akechi Mitsuhide said.
"It was written in the military newspaper that after the defeat of Miyoshi Yoshitsugu and Shinohara Chofusa, he retreated to Wakae Castle. After Maeda's interests were victorious, all parties followed suit.
Miyoshi Yasunaga and Anzhai Nobuyasu raised their voices anyway, and Hatakeyama Takamasa and Mibuchi Haru led their troops to join them. Miyoshi Yoshitsugi's path has been cut off and he can only be trapped in Ruojiang City.
Hosokawa Fujitaka wrote this letter to plead for Miyoshi Yoshitsugu. "
Yiyin was stunned and said.
"The Izumi-Hosokawa family was invaded twice by the Miyoshi family. The family was almost destroyed. The two sides had a bloody feud. How could Hosokawa Fujitaka intercede for Miyoshi Yoshitsugi?"
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled.
"She hopes that you will understand Miyoshi Yoshitsugu's plight, allow Miyoshi Yoshitsugu to occupy Wakae City and the five surrounding cities, give her territory, and allow her to settle in Hanoi Country."
