Enjoy the benefits of Spo's establishment, that is, a die-hard banker with six stones a year.
Although this amount of money and food is not much in the eyes of Hatakeyama Takamasa and Ninagawa Makoto, this honor is very important.
Tsudoden personally recognized Shiba as a martyr. This honor cannot be bought with money and food. If you can get your nephew to mix with one, it will always give you more face and convenience when hanging around inside and outside the shogunate.
But before this idea could be put into practice, Yiyin slapped him away. Although Yiyin's tone was joking, anyone who dared not take it seriously would have to be distributed according to military merit.
Now that the matter has come to this, Ninagawa and Hatakeyama Takamasa naturally do not want to cause any more trouble. When I go back, I have to tell everyone not to be confused. No one can bear the wrath of Jinduodian Thunder.
Now that the reward matter has been resolved, the two of them no longer need to worry about Yiyin, and left one after another, respectfully retreating.
After the two of them left, Kamao, who was sitting next to them, couldn't bear it anymore and snorted coldly.
"It is really shameful for a person who is obsessed with profit to even think about the grace of a saint towards a righteous man."
She is a smart person, so she naturally understands the two people's ideas very well and is very disdainful.
Yiyin is quite tolerant.
This is the virtue of the shogunate samurai family. After so many years, Yoshigan has long been used to toothaches and has no hope.
Since there are no expectations, of course there is nothing to be depressed about, he said with a smile.
"It's better to be motivated by profit. If they don't have food, rice, oil and salt, I won't know how to take care of them."
Pushengshixiang's heart moved.
"Your Majesty, do you mean to attack these shogunate warriors?"
Yiyin asked rhetorically.
"Let's not talk about them first, let's talk about you. You seem to be not very satisfied with my way of rewarding the righteous?"
Pusheng's villagers kowtowed to the ground and said in fear.
"I don't dare."
Yiyin smiled.
"What do you dare to say? There are no outsiders here. Just tell the truth.
If I can't even hear a single word of truth from your mouth, I'm living a lonely life and it's really not interesting for me. "
Of course Yiyin has its own considerations when doing things, but one person can calculate shortcomings and two people can calculate longitudes. It is better to discuss more, communicate more, and seek support as much as possible before taking action, rather than acting arbitrarily.
When Pu Shengshi heard that there were no outsiders, his heart suddenly warmed up, he thought about it carefully and said.
"Your Majesty has given me the important task of taking charge of the Tongxin people and presiding over Spo's selection. Naturally, I have to pay attention to Spo's system.
It has been two years since the Sibo establishment was established, and it has expanded from the initial number of just over a thousand to the current number of more than 2,000 people. It is really too fast.
In this Shiba-Oda War, Sanada Nobunshige has taken away 200 Shiba's members, and the Sanada family has officially joined the Shiba family lineage.
Maeda's interests, Maeda's family, Yukimori Yamazaka, and Shima Katsuo's subordinates had many meritorious officials. After the war, they would definitely submit a letter asking for credit and expansion.
I estimate that at least three to five hundred Si Bo must be organized before they can be dispatched.
But you, one hundred Sibo martyrs, enjoy the benefits of Sibo's establishment, but you do not join the Sibo family to serve the public. It is true. .
Your Majesty, Spo's compilation of the total number is probably going to exceed 3,000 this time. Even if Spozhong's fund is abundant, it should still be expanded cautiously.
At that time, the fundamental reason for the collapse of the imperial family system of the Kamakura shogunate was that the income was insufficient to cope with the rewards.
A lesson for the past and a guide for the future. I am bold, and I beg your Majesty to proceed with caution. "
These words of "Bamao Clan" are mature words for seeking the country. It is really impressive to be able to say them from the mouth of a young warrior like her.
The Kamakura shogunate was the first political power of the samurai family. The system was simple and clear, not as complicated as that of later generations.
The imperial family system is actually a contractual spirit with the core of serving the public as a reward. It is not like the convoluted guardian system of later generations, which uses the guardianship of the daimyo to divide the shogunate's responsibilities and obligations to the Hime Samurai.
In other words, the Kamakura shogunate and the imperial family are two parties to a dual contract. Once something goes wrong, the shogunate can't even find a scapegoat to take the blame, and can only bear all the responsibility with tears.
Just because it was simple enough, the mobilization power of the Kamakura Shogunate was not bad. Warrior Ji can see real money and is naturally willing to shed blood and sacrifice.
Unfortunately, the horror of the Mongol invasion exceeded the imagination of the Kamakura shogunate. The Kamakura shogunate could not afford the reward. I felt sorry for the meritorious imperial family members who had returned from the hard battle, so they had no choice but to refuse the payment.
As a result, the contract of public reward was torn up, and the armed Hime samurai who asked for wages destroyed the Kamakura shogunate. This left the Ashikaga shogunate with lingering fears, and the imperial family system was also replaced by the guardian system.
The guardian daimyo took away the power of the Ashikaga Shogun and also took away the troubles of the Ashikaga Shogunate. The three-level relationship between the general, the daimyo, and the warrior princess leaves many responsibilities to protect the daimyo and carry the thunder.
The Shiba system established by Shiba Yiyin can be said to be a variant of the royal family system. The annuities from the Shiba Tadashi Fund will be used to allow the Hime warriors who own Shiba's establishment to share in the interests of the Shiba family.
Theoretically, as long as the Shiba Zhong Fund can still issue annuities, the middle- and lower-class Shiba Ji warriors holding hard-core crops will be the strongest supporters of the Shiba family business and the unbreakable cornerstone.
But from a dialectical point of view, everything in the world has two sides of the same body. If you thrive on this, you will surely perish on this.
The Spo's organization is the cornerstone of the Spo's family. It may become a storm that overturns the Spo's family one day, so it must be treated with caution.
Expanding too quickly will quickly consume the capital of Spozhong Fund, which is not conducive to long-term stability. The most important thing is that it is easy to expand, but it is too difficult to downsize. If you embark on this road, there is no turning back.
Therefore, the Kamo clan, which controls Shiba's selection, has always been reluctant to expand. Even though she was criticized as a stingy person by the three Spo leaders, she dealt with it coldly and unwaveringly.
The Hamo family really loves Shiba Yiyin, and would rather offend others than to protect the family from being poached.
In this Battle of Shiba Oda, a large number of Hime samurai were rewarded for their merits. This Shiba establishment must be expanded, and the Kamao clan pinched their noses and accepted it.
However, Shiba Yoshiyin actually opened another hole and gave a hundred Shiba establishments to other families in the recent coalition forces. They were still not righteous men who served the duty of the Shiba family. This made the Hamo family very puzzled.
The Wu family firmly believes in the principle of public reward, which is actually the principle of equal exchange of rights and obligations.
The Shiba righteous soldiers enjoy the benefits of the Shiba establishment, but do not have to bear any responsibility or perform any obligations to the Shiba family. This is not in line with the rules of the martial arts.
It is understandable that the Pu Sheng clan is dissatisfied because of this.
Of course, Yiyin knew that the Kamao clan was loyal to him and did not want to increase the number of staff, which was also for the good of the Shiba family.
However, this reward for the Shiba righteous man was the result of Yoshigan's careful consideration, and it could not be changed just because of a few words from the Kamao clan.
In turn, Yiyin also needs to persuade the Kamao clan to be willing to register the number of these one hundred martyrs in a separate register, and even expand the number in the future.
Although Sibo Yishi seems to have many flaws, this is actually based on considerations of the overall political situation. In other words, it's a political investment that means a lot.
Yiyin said.
“This time, Takeo Shima and Yukimori Yamanaka did a very smart job.
The Kwantung Allied Forces fought well in the Echizen Kingdom and made great contributions, but they were willing to give up the land reward and followed the two of them to write a letter and call the saints.
What do you think? "
The Kamo clan was stunned, but unexpectedly, Yoshihiro suddenly brought the topic to the Kwantung Allied Forces.
Yiyin said bluntly without waiting for her reply.
"Shima Katsuruo and Yamanaka Yukimori wrote to me privately, explaining the transactions they had made with various Kwantung Allied Forces.
Takeda Shingen advocated the conquest of the East in Kanto, and the Hojo clan clearly expressed support. The two of them used the Standing Council's support for the Eastern Expedition as a bargaining chip to make a deal with the Kwantung Allied Forces.
The Kwantung Allied Forces do not covet the land bounty of Konko and Hokurikudo. After the Battle of Shiba Oda, the Standing Council will pass a resolution supporting the use of troops against the unjust people of the East.
Half of the land in the Kanto Plain can be conquered. How can the various families in the Kanto region think that this area is beyond their reach, and they are not sure how much land they will receive in return? "
Yoshigan knew very well that this idea must have come from Shima Katsuo, and Yamanaka Yukimori's stupid head probably couldn't come up with such a good idea.
The post-war rewards from the Kwantung Allied Forces are indeed a big trouble for Yiyin.
If he cannot satisfy all the families in Guandong, the appeal of the Guandong Chamber of Commerce will be affected. If he wants to drag people out to fight in the future, it will be difficult for him to respond to everything he calls.
Dao Shengmeng is exporting internal conflicts to the outside world.
Not only did it resolve the pain of Yiyin's land bounty, it also mobilized the enthusiasm of various families in the Kanto region and targeted the disobedient Eastern people.
In the name of righteousness, doing things to exclude dissenters is really a good card.
There is enough land in the East to satisfy various families in the Kanto region and resolve their dissatisfaction with the failure to obtain generous rewards from the Western expedition to Oda.
After seeing the fate of the people from the East, if the Kanto Agency mobilizes again in the future, those who are unwilling to send troops should think carefully, lest they end up like the people from the East, being conquered and exterminated in the name of injustice.
Kamao clan had no choice but to nod and said.
"The Kwantung Allied Forces have indeed done a good job, and they have relieved your Majesty a lot."
Yiyin smiled bitterly and shook his head and said.
"The situation in Kanto is complicated. Uesugi, Takeda, Hojo and other powerful feudal lords are not easy to fool. It is not easy for Shima Shengmu, Yamazaka Yukimori and Ohkuma Tohide to maintain the Kanto Palace Standing Council.
Coupled with the fact that there are famous wealthy families and powerful martial arts families in various places, the large and small forces are intertwined, and the sudden rise of Sanada Nobushige, I don't know what to do with them.
Fortunately, the unjust people from the East finally gave everyone the same goal, and they could share the same hatred and fight against the outside world.
I can be considered relieved. At least before the people of the East are killed and half of the Kanto Plain is pacified, the unity within the Kanto Palace will not be a big problem.
But these days, I've been in trouble here.
After suppressing Oda Nobunaga, where can I find another target with enough weight and arousing common hatred to stabilize the internal situation and unite the various families in the near future? "
Pu Sheng's eyebrows tightened, and suddenly there was a hint of enlightenment in his heart.
"Your Majesty, do you mean that these one hundred Sibo martyrs are used as bargaining chips to unite several families in the near future?"
Yiyin chuckled.
"Unity? In recent times, the martial arts family, especially the bastards like the shogunate, are all people who forget their loyalty and follow others' influence.
Counting from the Eighth Generation Shogun Rebellion, it has been in chaos for almost a hundred years.
All the loyal and famous Wu family members have long since died, and those who survive are all shameless wallflowers. If there is any slight disturbance, they will fall upon the wind and fall, and they are not reliable at all.
The Ashikaga Shogun of Nijo Castle was afraid that I would take away her orthodoxy from the Kawachi Genji lineage, and his defense against me was even more fierce than that of Oda Nobunaga.
Recently, several families have been frightened by Oda Nobunaga's innovative policies, so they are willing to work for me and unite to fight against the Oda family.
Now that the Battle of Shiba Oda is coming to an end, Oda Nobunaga has decided to surrender.
Regardless of whether she would really change her ways, at least her attitude would not be as arrogant as before, and her infringement on the Wu family would no longer be so blatant.
Without the external threat of the Oda family, how should I deal with the soft confrontation of internal disobedience?
Putting aside the general for now, you also saw the appearance of Ninagawa Akashi and Hatakeyama Takamasa just now. What can I do to them? "
At this time, Yoshigami didn't know that Akechi Mitsuhide was planning the general's escape, so he could only put aside the idiot Ashikaga Yoshiaki.
Oda Nobunaga took a break for the time being, but once Oda's external troubles were eliminated, the main contradiction disappeared, the secondary contradiction became the main contradiction, and the bastards within the shogunate were not easy to manage.
Yiyin is not afraid of everyone fighting with open swords and guns, but the soft-footed shrimps in the shogunate have never relied on fighting to gain profits. They simply don't have that ability.
The Shiba family is the third leader of the shogunate, and Yoshigan comes from a famous family. He could not imitate Oda Nobunaga and lift the table to start a new game.
His birth was destined. He must be an Ashikaga clan member and a member of the famous samurai family. He could not destroy his own base and smash the reputation arch that he relied on to deceive the world.
The Ashikaga Shogun and the Ashikaga Shogunate must be overthrown by Oda Nobunaga, but before Oda Nobunaga can regain his strength and regain his strength, Yoshigami must first control these cunning samurai families inside and outside the shogunate.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki has a strong eye but a weak hand, so it is not difficult to deal with him. However, these recent samurai families inside and outside the shogunate are very difficult to deal with, and Yoshigan cannot use strong methods.
These people know that a gentleman can be deceived, and they have a very respectful attitude towards Yiyin, and they keep making small moves in private.
Just like Ninagawa Chise, she is a saint, licking the floor like a dog, but once her own vital interests are involved, she will lie down and act like a rogue. What can Yoshigan do to her?
Speaking of which, Ninagawa Akashi has always been on Yoshigan's side. Although she is a pig teammate, with Yoshigan's benevolent and righteous personality, he can only hold his nose and tolerate her even though he knows that she is too careful.
Kamojigo followed with a wry smile.
"Your Majesty, you have confused me."
Yiyin sighed.
"It's good to be confused, but as a human being, you can't live too soberly, which will only lead to troubles.
This time, in addition to the Shiba Hosokawa family as the main force, there are also the Konki samurai families from the three countries of Yamashiro, Settsu, and Tamba, and miscellaneous members of Kii Country.
Leaving aside the miscellaneous crowd, they are mercenaries and are not counted among the hundred Spo righteous soldiers. I have other rewards for Hosokawa Fujitaka, and I will not take up the one hundred righteous people.
Therefore, these quotas are mainly given to samurai from Yamashiro, Settsu, and Tamba, mainly shogunate ministers and local shogunate warriors. "
