Anyone with a little common sense in modern society will understand the serious consequences of excessive currency issuance.
But even the increasingly perfect regulatory system in modern society cannot avoid this trend, let alone the troubled times of this medieval island country.
Ishida Mitsunari happily left with the two methods provided by Yi Bank. Yi Bank, which had just been alerted to the tendency of excessive issuance of food stamps, had no time to take care of this hidden danger.
Because, new military information has been sent to his case, and Oda Nobunaga's cruelty exceeds Yoshigan's imagination.
On this day, Yiyin put down his military intelligence and looked at Akechi Mitsuhide in front of him.
"So, Isono Yuanmao is afraid?"
Akechi Mitsuhide sighed.
"Not only Isono Yuanmasa was afraid, but also the Hokurikudo Ichikui who had entered Kitanomi also withdrew to defend.
Asakura Kageki of Tsuruga County also asked me to ask you for your instructions. If the Oda army invades Echizen Kingdom again and the attack continues, should she continue to remain neutral? "
Akechi Mitsuhide was originally sent by Yoshigan to win over Isono Umasa, but Oda Nobunaga's brutal killings on Kitai Nagashima scared everyone.
Oda Nobunaga had already set his sights on Nagashima. Just as Nagashima had always harassed Oda's territory again, making Oda Nobunaga angry, he also stepped into a trap.
Oda Nobunaga, who was already prepared to deal with Nagashima Ichikui, sent Shibata Katsuie to Kitanomi to stop the arrogant Hokurikudo Ichikui. He personally led the elites of Owari and Mino to besiege Nagashima.
The two samurai families of Owari and Mino were repeatedly harassed by Nagashima, and they were already very annoyed.
Let the martial arts families of the two countries go to war with the Shiba family. They may not work hard, but if they have to deal with Nagadao, they have the same hatred and their morale is like a rainbow.
Nagashima, who was emerging, was always attacked head-on by Oda Nobunaga. Ichikui was defeated and fled back to Nagashima, relying on sandy islands and dams to hold on.
Oda Nobunaga had many soldiers and generals, so he simply attacked all the way. In the end, the people could only huddle in the five fortified castles on the island and could not get out. The Oda army had nowhere to attack and could only besiege them.
This siege lasted for three months, and most of the unprepared Ichiku people starved to death. In the end, they had to come forward to negotiate with Oda Nobunaga.
Oda Nobunaga pretended to allow Ichikui to abandon the city and leave, taking advantage of the situation to capture Nagashima. But as soon as the people left the city, they were violently attacked by the Oda army, and all men, women, and children were killed.
Oda Nobunaga was not satisfied with just killing the people of Nagashima Ikoku, so she simply slaughtered all the surrounding villages that believed in the Ichikoku sect, leaving no one alive.
Oda Nobunaga's crazy killing made the always lawless Yiyi Kui feel his liver and gallbladder splitting and his scalp numb.
Since you have done everything for your faith, then I will completely destroy your bodies and prevent future troubles forever.
This move of Oda Nobunaga frightened Hokurikudo, who had always been forced to withdraw from Kitaomi to Echizen Province overnight.
And Masa Isono, who had already been moved by Mitsuhide Akechi, decisively sent his gift out of the country, temporarily putting an end to the idea of sitting on the fence.
Tsuruga County is located between the Hokuriku Road and the Oda family. Asakura Kageki, the head of the family, is even more uneasy, and the two groups are fighting.
Oda Nobunaga used a frenzied massacre to instantly reverse the situation, stabilize his own territory, and frighten the restless samurai at home and abroad.
Yiyin had to admire this ruthlessness and decisiveness, he sighed.
"awesome."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded.
"Your Majesty is wise, His Highness Oda's act of massacring Nagashima, although it is violent and perverse, has endless consequences, it is also the fastest way to achieve results.
The biggest hidden danger around Owari and Mino has been eliminated, and His Highness Oda no longer has any worries. In front of her butcher knife, the Ise samurai family and the Omi samurai family did not dare to continue making small calculations.
His Highness Oda has already started mobilizing with all his strength. He has gathered the military forces of the four countries of Sutra, Mino, Ise, and Omi. It is said that he has mobilized more than 100,000 soldiers to overthrow the Ichikui who occupied Echizen Country in one fell swoop.
That's why Asakura Kageki expresses her position to you implicitly. She doesn't dare to jump out and cause trouble for His Highness Oda at this time. I hope to gain your understanding. "
Yiyin laughed at himself.
"I'm waiting for the Kwantung Allied Forces, and I don't want to confront Oda Nobunaga at this time, let alone someone else.
Whether it is Isono Umasa or Asakura Kageki, they are all local daimyo who want to get close to me, and I will write back to comfort them. "
Akechi Mitsuhide glanced at the anxious Yoshigan and said.
"Your Majesty, after hearing the bad news, don't you want to hear some good news?"
Yiyin sighed.
“In this situation, what good news can there be?
Oda Nobunaga rushed north to Echizen Country before winter came, in order to recapture Echizen Country, the bridgehead of the Hokuriku Road, before the heavy snow blocked the road, and block the gathering of allied forces from both sides of Kanto.
It will still be about two months before the heavy snow and road closures in Hokurikudo. I just hope that those people in Hokurikudo can hold on until the snow and road closures, so that I can have more initiative in deploying troops next year. "
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled charmingly, his eyes moved, and he said.
"Your Majesty, you can rest assured on this point, Hokurikudo will definitely fight to the end.
His Highness Oda has always broken promises to Nagashima and massacred local temples and villages of innocent believers.
Although this method was a one-and-done solution, it also made everyone who had always thought of the Oda family completely give up. Hokurikudo has always insisted that it will defend Echizen Country this time and will never think of surrender again.
Moreover, the negative impact of His Majesty Oda's repeated massacres is spreading.
The Master of Ishiyama Honganji Temple has issued a decree, naming His Highness Oda as an enemy of the Buddha, and called on believers from all over the world to attack him.
In addition, Master Tianhai is also a capable person. She used the Nagashima massacre to incite the hatred of the middle and lower-class nuns in Mount Hiei against the Oda family's burning of Mount Hiei.
Just yesterday, the nun official of the Enryakuji Temple, who advocated maintaining neutrality, was attacked and died on the spot. The attacker was a nun regiment from Mount Hiei.
After the attacker succeeded, he committed suicide by shouting that Tsutama-den is Bishamonten, Lord Oda is the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven, and those who do not support Tsutama-den are evildoers.
This incident caused a huge shock, and the attacker was already regarded as an idol by the Hieizan nuns.
The Tiantai Sect can't be tough for long, Master Tianhai has already begun to use the lower levels to force the upper levels. If they don't wake up, the Ni Corps will really protect Qingyuan.
Congratulations, Your Majesty, the first step on the road to Shinto has been successful. "
Yiyin couldn't help laughing when he heard about the Sixth Heavenly Demon King.
The title of the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven was used by Oda Nobunaga to ridicule Takeda Shingen's self-proclaimed nunsho of the Tendai Sect. Unexpectedly, it was actually used by Tenkai to incite the nuns on Mount Hiei.
The nuns in the middle and lower classes don't have much education, but they are much more pious than the fat nuns in the upper echelons.
Yi Gin is the incarnation of Bishamonten blown by the Tendai Sect himself, and the Nine Virtues of Light Armor given by the Tendai Sect is enshrined in the Tsudo Hall of Tamon Mountain Castle.
Oda Nobunaga was arrogant and called himself the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven. This was also written in a letter to Takeda Shingen, and it is in black and white.
The upper echelons of the Tiantai Sect may want to remain neutral and wait and see. But in the eyes of devout believers in the middle and lower classes, what these high-ranking nuns did was a depraved act that was bewitched by the devil.
Master Tianhai seized this angle and tried his best to squeeze the Enryaku Temple religious group. How could those pampered nuns and nobles tolerate it?
It is still unclear how Oda Nobunaga will deal with them in the future. But if they still grit their teeth and refuse to express their stance, Mount Hiei will soon be filled with blood again.
Don't think that only the martial arts masters can master the art of defeating the superior. Buddhism in island countries is also very good at it.
Moreover, those who play faith are far more extreme than fighting for secular hegemony. It is black and white, and there is no third way to choose from.
Oda Nobunaga raised his butcher knife high and cut off Nagashima's long-standing roots with one blow. He frightened the samurai under his command and went north to threaten Echizen Country. It seemed that he had taken a great initiative strategically and militarily.
But politically, Oda Nobunaga's behavior gave Yoshibank a huge gift package.
The Oda family's several attacks on Buddha have completely angered the grassroots of the Tendai Sect and Ichiko Sect.
The simple believers at the bottom are not the old foxes from the upper class. Their thoughts are simpler and purer, and they are more pious and straightforward.
At this time, even if Ishiyama Honganji Temple is unwilling to block the Shiba family's sword and Hieizan Enryakuji Temple intends to remain neutral, they can't do it.
Master Tenkai, a professional from the sect, pitted Yoshigan Bishamonten's identity against Oda Nobunaga's identity as the Sixth Heavenly Demon King. This was the battle of Buddhist protectors and evil spirits.
The war between the Shiba Oda family and the samurai family was covered with a sacred cloak of faith. They could only force the Ichiko Sect and the Tendai Sect to express their stance, recognize Yoshigan's divinity, and stand up to help him bear the thunder.
Coupled with the fact that the Shingon sect is already happy to see Yoshigan make further progress, Kofukuji Changkaku will definitely take the lead in the charge and encourage his peers to do their best.
Therefore, Hidetoshi Akechimitsu said that he would like to congratulate Yiyin. With the three major sects of Buddhism working together, Yiyin has taken its first step into Shinto.
In the future, if anyone wants to question Yoshigan, the living Bishamonten, he must first pass the three major sects.
Faith is no small matter. The three major sects stand up to defend Yiyin today, and they cannot let others slap them in the face in the future. This is not only for Yiyin, but also a major event for the three major sects to safeguard the dignity of their own sects.
Yoshigami shook his head. He did almost nothing, but Oda Nobunaga forcefully pushed people towards him. Is this the legendary saying that many people are helped by good people, but few are helped by bad people?
As the saying goes, what you lose in the east is what you gain.
Although Yiyin's military passivity still made Yiyin very uncomfortable, his mood was finally better at this time.
Oda Nobunaga's foundation is established and his strength is strong. It cannot be shaken by a war. Yoshinobu is fighting this Saba Oda war only to achieve the political intention of promoting peace through fighting.
From Oda Nobunaga's perspective, Yoshigage is also full of buffs, and he is not an important political figure who can be insulted at will after being defeated in a battle.
The elder of the Genji family recognized by the martial arts family in the world, the Buddhist protector recognized by the sects in the world, are they people who can be humiliated at will?
Despite Oda Nobunaga's crazy acting, she has always been a calm, rational and utilitarian person at heart.
Even if she didn't have any special feelings for Yoshihiro, she wouldn't be able to just click off Yoshihiro's head and use it as a wine glass like she did with Asai Nagamasa.
It is even impossible to surround Yoshigami and use him as a puppet to humiliate him as he did with Ashikaga Yoshiaki.
Yoshigan embodies the principles of traditional martial arts and the worship of traditional Buddhism. He can be said to be a saint who embodies the tradition of the island country.
The more buffs he piled on him, the more cautious Oda Nobunaga had to handle them, which was also helpless.
Now Yoshihiro and Oda Nobunaga are in a state of fear. They both know that they cannot kill each other in a fight, but they must fight hard. Regardless of whether they win or lose, they must carefully handle the aftermath.
Yiyin sighed, secretly feeling tired, and said.
"Let's see the results of Oda Nobunaga's Northern Expedition to Echizen Country. I hope those people who have always been there can give me a surprise."
———
Just as Yoshigan didn't know whether he was surprised or happy, Okuma Chaohide at the Echigo Imperial Palace on the other side of Kanto was shocked and angry.
The Standing Council of the Kanto Shrine is composed of three permanent directors and three non-permanent directors. The term of the three non-permanent directors is one year.
At the spring review of the Kanto Shrine in the spring of next year, the participating United Front generals will jointly elect three new non-permanent directors to replace the current three non-permanent directors.
But before the big review, the candidates for the three non-permanent directors had actually been determined in fierce political games. The big review was nothing more than a formality.
It is now autumn, and the names of the three non-permanent directors for next year have been formed after a long game between all parties.
The three permanent directors will send the finalized list to nearby countries for Yoshino Siro's inspection.
Shiba Yiyin will not explicitly interfere with the Grand Council, but he can use the veto power of the three permanent directors to exclude people he does not like from the list.
At this time, Daxiong Chaohide came to meet Mikan, Shima Katsume, and Yamanaka Yukimori.
She unexpectedly discovered that Dazang Changan's name appeared on the candidate list for non-permanent director, and his name was ranked second.
When he learned that Ozo Changan was the non-permanent director candidate recommended by Sanada Nobushige and helped her connect many contacts, Daxiong Chaohide couldn't help but became furious.
Sanada Nobushige had an unpleasant quarrel with her last time at the standing committee and embarrassed her in public.
This time, Sanada Nobushige pushed Ozo Changan to participate in the Standing Council again. He must have deliberately caused trouble for Daxiong Chaohide.
Who doesn't know that the two important economic ministers, Da Zang Chang'an and Da Xiong Chao Xiu, stabbed each other in Jinduo Hall, and they were already at odds with each other.
Da Xiong frowned at Chao Xiu.
"Dazang Chang'an, what qualifications does she have to participate in the Standing Council? She doesn't even have the status of a united front member."
Yamanaka Yukimori shook his head.
"Big Bear Ji, Dazang Chang'an has the identity of a united front warrior.
Did you forget it? Your Majesty ordered Dazang Chang'an to cooperate with the Wushu Association's work. In order to facilitate her work, she was granted the status of the United Front. "
Big Bear choked Chao Xiu and said again.
"Since she has the identity of the United Front, why does she never participate in the big review?"
Daosheng said in a deep voice.
"Big Bear Ji, United Front is the threshold for participating in the Grand Council, but it is not a mandatory requirement to participate in the meeting.
Just because Dazang Changan did not come to participate in the big review does not mean that she is not qualified to run for non-permanent director. "
The retorts of Yamanaka Yukimori and Shima Katsuo made the angry Daxiong Chaoxiu feel that something was wrong. She narrowed her eyes and calmed down instantly.
