News from all aspects gave Yiyin confidence and even some joy.
Although the sudden rebellion of the Eastern people caught him off guard, in a sense, the Eastern people were desperate and were forced to make the worst choice.
Yoshigan observed from this unexpected situation that the Kanto general Ashikaga Yoshiji had put down his ambitions and was no longer obsessed with the dominance of the old Kanto system.
The land of Guanbazhou was gradually tamed under Yiyin's layers of conspiracy.
With the Grand Review of the Kanto Palace as the core, a republican review system for the warrior aristocrats was created.
The strategy of supporting the middle and lower-class samurai families with the Wujia Yili Promotion Association and the Wujia Consultation Platform as a link has allowed Yiyin's influence to penetrate deep into the land of Kanto.
Holding high the imperial white flag of Hachiman Tainiang, inheriting the title of direct descendant of Kawachi Genji, and furthering his path to Shinto, Yoshigan is deifying his own image.
In the name of the righteousness of peace in Kanto, and the keynote of Shiba's new ideas of peaceful development, the entire land of Kanto is constantly changing, and accepting the rule of Shiba's theocracy has become the mainstream attitude.
The Kantō Shisho's extermination of the Eastern people was actually a historical factor related to the Tobashi clan itself, and behind it was the long-term political confrontation between the east and west of the eight states of Kanto.
Since the Kamakura Ashikaga family moved from Kamakura to Furukawa, the Kanto shoguns have received support from the samurai families in the eastern part of Kanba Province, and they have faced off against the Ryougesugi family in the west and the subsequent rise of the Hojo family.
In other words, the century-old turmoil in the Guanbazhou region was actually a regional confrontation between the eastern and western martial arts families under the banner of their respective righteousnesses.
At the beginning of the Ashikaga shogunate, only the Ashikaga shogun had the authority to seal the house katak, which was also the status of the samurai daimyo. It was historically known as the Muromachi Twenty-one House Kata.
But as times changed, the Kanto shoguns, who had jurisdiction over the ten Kanto countries, also had the power to seal the Kanto Yakata.
After the Kantō generals moved to Furukawa City, they enfeoffed the powerful military families in the eastern part of the eight states.
The Kanto Hachiyakata family, headed by the Yuki family, the Oyama family, the Chiba family, the Satake family, the Nasu family, the Oda family, the Utsunomiya family, and the Minagawa family, are the main supporters of the Kanto shogun.
Among them, the Yuki family and the Chiba family of the Shimo-sou Kingdom are located in the south and north, and are the closest guardians to the Kanto general.
The Utsunomiya family of Shimono country has never been able to overwhelm the Oyama family, resulting in the fact that Shimono country is guarded by two people, and there are many hills inside.
The Satake family of Hitachi Province owned seven counties, which were called guardians, but they were unable to completely swallow up the Oda family in the south. The Oda family was hostile to the Yuki family again, and was defeated by the united Satake family and Yuki family.
These conflicts within the vassals in the eastern part of the Kanto Eight Provinces began with the Kanto Yakata title entrusted to them by the Kanto Shogun. Everyone was descended from a famous family and had status as a great name of the samurai family. Naturally, no one obeyed the other.
After Hojo Ujiyasu defeated the Kamakura Ashikaga family and the Ryoesugi family, he took control of Ashikaga Yoshiji, the Kanto general.
The Yuuki family and the Chiba family of the Shimo-sou Kingdom turned to join the Hojo family, becoming the peripheral forces of the Hojo family and the front line for infiltration into the eastern part of the eight states.
The Shimonokuni samurai family of Hitachi Province on the northern front, represented by the Satake family and the Utsunomiya family, have been resisting the infiltration and invasion of the Hojo family.
On the Bosou peninsula on the southern line, the rising Satomi family also went up and down the Soso line to confront the Hojo family, and even fought a battle in Taicheng, the national capital.
The Kanto generals were puppetized by the Hojo family, and the collapsed old Kanto system could no longer protect the eastern samurai families of the eight states of Kanto, so they joined forces themselves to form the Oriental Crowd.
This is the origin of the Oriental Crowd, and it is also the main reason why the Kanto Palace has always been hostile to the Eastern Crowd, and would rather give up the reward of the Kinki Battle to come back and devour the Eastern Crowd.
Whether it is the Kanto leadership line represented by Kenshin Uesugi, or the Western Boss of Kanba Shu after the Hojo family killed the two Uesugi families.
Essentially, they represent the interests of the martial arts families in the western part of Guanbazhou, and they continue the Hundred Years War between the martial arts families in the western and western parts of Guanbazhou.
As Yiyin established the new system of the Kanto Palace, the western martial arts family of the Eight Prefectures of Kanto has gained an absolute advantage within the Grand Council.
Just in time to swallow up the eastern Wu family and complete the reunification of the Guanbazhou area.
Therefore, the Guandong Palace refused to accept the bowing and begging for mercy from the people of the East, forcing the people of the East to unite and launch this rebellion.
Of course Yiyin was helpless in this process of forcing a dog to jump over the wall.
But even if he is a saint, he cannot stop the trend of the west wind overpowering the east wind. He can only stand in his own position, follow the trend, and achieve the goals that are most beneficial to him.
Now it seems that the Kanto Service Office is a mess, running amok. The people in the East are even more of a ragtag group, unable to even coordinate the most basic north-south line.
This drama of confrontation between the East and the West is simply a joke in Yiyin's opinion.
Fortunately, Yiyin himself has not become part of the joke. Instead, he has used this joke to perfectly avoid the confrontation between his own women at the Kanto Waiting House, which is also a blessing among misfortunes.
Yiyin stood at a high place and watched the rebellion of the Eastern people with cold eyes.
Now that the rebels on his side are stable, he must consider how to fight a good battle so that he can later lead the Eastern Strategy of the Kanto Palace and complete the annexation of the eastern part of Guanbazhou.
The Miaoyin monk sitting at the bottom of Yiyin was uneasy, having already seen the surging undercurrents at the bottom.
Although Yiyin claims to be a saint, he is not a real god, so how can he be omniscient and omnipotent?
The aftermath of this rebellion will be more violent than he imagined, and will completely change the political structure and ideology of the entire Kanto land.
Yiyin and Miaoyin monk had a pleasant conversation. After Miaoyin monk settled his own affairs, he talked about another thing.
"Sage, I heard that Satake Yoshinori led her troops south and besieged Furukawa City. In order to gain time, she took the initiative to bypass Yuki City.
My son-in-law Chaojun, as you recognize, recommended himself and begged the saint for permission to go to Yuecheng City to persuade his mother and sister to hold on.
As long as Yuki Castle can be nailed to Satake Yishige's back, it will be like a thorn in his back, making it difficult for the army to move quickly. "
Yiyin raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
At this time, Satake Yoshige has not yet reacted, thinking that Yoshige was trapped in Furukawa City by her. If Chaojun goes there rashly, will this military information be leaked in advance?
Seeing Yiyin's hesitation, Miaoyin monk explained.
"The saint doesn't have to worry about Chao Jun leaking secrets. He is just a Taoist man, and it is his duty to go home to visit relatives.
Xiazhuancheng is also a famous sect, one of the eight houses in Kanto. Even if the people from the east intercept the emperor, they will not embarrass him, let alone judge him severely.
Chaojun wanted to go back for two reasons.
The first is that they are worried that the Xia Shuucheng family will be deceived by the bandit army and help them do evil.
The second one is worried about Oda's rule. . "
Yiyin nodded slightly, understanding what Miaoyin Monk was about to say but hesitated.
The Yura family of Kanayama and the Yuuchi family are related by marriage, so naturally they don't want the Yuicheng family to get confused at this sensitive time and turn to Satake Yishige.
Speaking of which, the Satake family and the Yuki family were also allies back then. They beat Oda Ujiharu together and made Oda Ujiharu lose Oda Castle and run away several times.
Later, the Satake and Yuki families turned against each other because of the rise of the Hojo family, and both the Chiba and Yuki families of the Shimo Province defected to the Hojo family.
How could the Satake family tolerate the Hojo family's influence extending into Hitachi Country, and that's why they fell out with the Yuki family.
But on the matter of beating Odajiji, the two sides still had a tacit understanding.
The Yuuki family and the Oda family have deep rifts, which can be called a feud. No matter whether the relationship between the Satake family and the Yuuki family is good or not, beating the Oda family will not change.
The Oda clan was attacked by forces from the north and the south. Oda Castle was lost several times and regained Oda Castle several times.
Because the samurai family has a strong foundation in the hearts of the people in the local area, it has always stood firm and has been ridiculed as the Phoenix name by the surrounding samurai families.
Yiyin also valued Oda's popularity with the local people, so it deliberately promoted her, and even gave her the benefit of serving as a non-permanent director.
Oda Ujiharu also lived up to Yigen's expectations. This time he came to report the news regardless of everything, and lost Oda Castle again, which can be regarded as a great contribution to the saint.
With Yiyin's generosity as a person, in the future when the people of the East are dead, the Oda clan's rewards and benefits will definitely be great.
As for the Cheng family, it’s hard to say.
They were surrounded in Yuki City and did not know the real situation outside. If they were seduced by Satake Yishige and 49 joined the national army, wouldn't they be in bad luck?
Chaojun was worried that his family would be confused, and he was even more worried that the Oda clan would make things worse. The Miaoyin monk considered it from the perspective of the Yuliang family, and also hoped that the Xiashuucheng family could escape this disaster.
The Yura family of Kanayama was on the north bank of the middle reaches of the Tone River, and the Narita family of Ninjo Castle was on the south bank. The Nagao family of Ashikaga Castle is located on the upper reaches of the Watarase River, and the lower Nagao family of Ashikaga Castle is on the plain between the Watarase River and the Kinugawa River.
The in-laws of these four families are centered on the Yuliang family, and the marriage network of two daughters and one son of the Yuliang family has been used to the extreme.
Then, the diversion project of the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River was to guide the over-flooded water of the lower reaches of the Tone River into the Watarase River and Kinugawa River, and then cross Hitachi Province to the east to the sea.
The key to changing the direction of this project is that it actually overlaps a lot with the sphere of influence of the Yura family's in-law network, and it can receive a large amount of funding assistance and construction benefits from the Samurai Family Giri Promotion Association.
To put it simply, the samurai family in the entire Tone River Basin gave money to help the Yuryoshi family and their in-laws and allies do water conservancy projects, and the Yuryoshi family made a lot of money!
Water control can develop land, expand farmland, take advantage of unique geographical locations, and improve political status and local voice.
The Yuliang family has no reason to abandon the Shishucheng family. Instead, they want to further unite with the other three families and strive for more benefits on the stage of the Kanto Palace Review.
Therefore, Monk Miaoyin came forward to ask Yiyin for accommodation and let Chaojun return to Yuecheng City. He ordered the Shuicheng family to see the current situation clearly and must fight against the rebels resolutely. Don't be confused.
Yiyin thought for a while, it had been eight days since he left Furukawa City, and it would take at least three to five days for Chaojun to go to Yuecheng City.
Even if he revealed the true situation in the south to the Yuki family, it would still be more than fifteen days before the Yuki family was sold to Satake Yishige.
However, Satake Yoshige wanted to readjust his strategy and go south to search for traces of Yoshige, which would take at least twenty-five days.
During this time, there were tens of thousands of troops around Yoshigan, and the Hojo military force in Edo Castle on the other side of the Edogawa River echoed from afar. Satake Yoshige was no longer able to threaten Yoshigan.
In fact, according to Yoshigami's own calculations, he only deceived Satake Yoshige into staying at Furukawa Castle for twenty days. The longer the time went by, the more powerful the Satake family governor would find that something was wrong and he would not be able to hide it.
In this case, although the Yuuki family may have leaked the news about letting Asa-kun go to Yuki Castle, the greater possibility is that the Yuuki family firmly stands on Yoshigan's side and fights Satake Yoshige to the end.
The Yuki family are not stupid. The general trend is obvious. Why should her family follow the people of the East and seek death?
As long as the Yuki family is willing to stick to Satake Yoshige's back, it will become even more difficult for Satake Yoshige to go south.
Even if Satake Yoshige discovers that Yoshigan is no longer in Furukawa City, it will be difficult for her to go south quickly. The Yuki family can buy more time for Yoshigan.
Calculated in this way, if Chaojun goes there, there is a small chance that Satake Yoshige will be discovered a few days in advance, but there is a high probability that it will delay Satake Yoshige for more than ten days.
This one is worth a gamble.
Yiyin thought clearly and said to Miaoyin Monk.
"Chaojun is very homesick, so let her go back. During the war, let her be careful on the road and bring more guards."
Monk Miaoyin said movedly.
"The saint is so merciful and merciful. We are so grateful."
Yiyin smiled.
"It's only human nature, so there's no need to thank you. If you have nothing else to do, I still have military affairs to be busy with."
Monk Miaoyin recognized his interest and bowed to leave. Yiyin couldn't help but shake his head as he watched his leaving figure.
Yiyin wasn't busy, but he was a little irritable.
The Yuliang family sent out a lot of troops this time, and each family immediately mobilized five thousand troops, which can be said to be fast and large.
However, there were many troops sent out, and there were many requests for mercy and favors. Monk Miaoyin jumped out every word, making Yiyin feel tight in the chest and short of breath.
The Yuliang family sent five thousand troops, and they made requests one by one. It seemed like a pleading, but could Yiyin refuse? At this moment, he still needs others to work hard, how could he not appease and win over him?
There are still more than 10,000 people coming from the Higashi Musashi area. Who knows how many requests will be waiting for Yoshigin's approval.
Yiyin felt that he was so pitiful. On the surface, he was praised as a saint, but in fact, he was just a victim. He was squeezed every day and was almost bald.
Being compassionate and kind-hearted, these are all the reasons for others to bully you. When a saint has a broad mind and cannot get angry with others, he is just being taken advantage of.
Yiyin smiled bitterly and shook his head. He could only say that he brought it on himself and he should enjoy the hardship.
