"There is something unusual happening in the Kaga Ixiang Clan. Chaoshengji Temple Mikado orders Guangtoku Temple to lead the army to rescue the Yuezhong Ixiang Clan. The banner is to punish Kira, the most cruel and unscrupulous person in the world, on behalf of gods and Buddhas... Yoshitoki! This time The number of Kaga Ichiku's troops at this time was no less than 50,000, and their troops, with Jinbo Nagaji as the vanguard, had already set out at Kaga Kanazawa Gobo... 50,000! It's such a big deal, and it doesn't leave any chance to breathe! Want to punish Yu? How interesting!”
Kira Yoshitoshi's expression was very relaxed, and he seemed to be in the mood to ridicule Kaga Ichimumu's message, but Uesugi Masatora, Hosokawa Fujitaka and others who knew his character well knew that the flames of anger were constantly bursting out in his heart, and only extremely angry ones He would only show this expression sometimes, and they were very worried that Kiragi would take extraordinary revenge when he became angry.
Hattori Masakiyoshi frowned and thought for a while, then said: "This really reminds me of a rumor I received a few months ago. It is said that Chaoshengji Miteru once sent an envoy to contact Ishiyama Honganji Temple, and there was a rumor circulating in the capital about my superior Ashikaga. There are rumors that Honganji Kennyo deliberately invited a decree from Enryakuji Temple on Mount Hiei. The purpose was to label the Lord as an enemy of Buddhism. He then called on the Buddhists in the world to boycott and fight against the Ashikaga family, and then he left this message It suddenly disappeared without a trace and was abandoned by us because no more accurate evidence could be found."
Fortunately, Kira Yoshi was not so impulsive. He suppressed the anger in his chest and said coldly: "So that's it. Honganji wanted to move Yu but was rejected by Hieizan Enryakuji. It's so cruel and vicious. Yu was treated like this even though he had never shown hostility towards Honganji. This sect is indeed a vicious and evil person! Thanks to the monks of Enryakuji who did not fall for the trap, Yu's influence in the Kinai The strength is not comparable to that of Yi Xiangzong who is shouted at by everyone!"
"That Xiang Zong is really a group of despicable people. If they use this banner to attack us, they will probably have no name to use, right? It is really ridiculous to think that an outsider wants to punish the famous martial arts family like us!"
"Because I'm not clean, I think everyone in the world looks dirty like him. These monks are really hopeless!"
A group of family members started shouting. Kira Yoshi raised a folding fan and knocked on the table. He glanced coldly at the samurai of different colors in the large room and said lightly: "Since Echigo Shitō, I was close to the Hokuriku Sect, but I didn't have any deep hatred against the Honganji Temple. If they hadn't come to knock on my door several times, how could I have abandoned Kantō instead? Why did I deploy heavy troops to guard Yuezhong? It should be noted that a general has nothing to do with it. If it is beneficial, we should not fight; if it is beneficial, we should not fight angrily; if it is beneficial, we should fight without being wary; if it is beneficial, we should move; if it is not beneficial, we should stop.
The reason why I restrained and forbeared several times was not because I couldn't bear to go to war rashly, but because the Hokuriku Sect was not the focus of my strategy. However, there were always people who thought they were self-righteous and wanted to challenge me and challenge the prestige of the Ashikaga family. I must not give this to such clowns. He has no extravagant hope for a chance! We must defeat him completely and let them understand what it means to be a martial artist. The monks should return to the temple to pray for the world instead of imitating the samurai to wield swords and guns!"
Kira Yoshitoki's attitude is very clear. That is to punish the clown who has repeatedly challenged his authority and not to let him pop out again and again to cause trouble. However, his statement does not mean that the strategic goal is turning to the west and along the north. With the expansion of the land route, both he personally and Uesugi Masatora, Yamamoto Tokiyuki, Sanada Yukitaka and other family members are making active preparations for going south to Kanto. Where can they find the time to tangle with the Hokuriku Kaga Kingdom Ichiki Mune? .
Nagaga Country is not a kingdom at all, but a gathering place for the evil monks who have always been suppressed in Hokuriku. Their nature is similar to those cult organizations that were wiped out, inciting the poor people to go crazy for an illusory name and overthrow the shogunate.
The guardian daimyo of Kaga was appointed and a chaotic area was established. The Asakura family was held back by the Kaga Ichimuzu for sixty years without being able to move. Even if there was a generation of Mingjun Asakura Toshikage and the Northern Army God Asakura Sotechi, they could not move.
Decide the winner.
Conventional methods cannot be used to deal with Ichiku. The best way is to imitate the Great Demon King and carry out a massacre in Kaga, and together with Echigo Uesugi, break into the Kaga Kingdom, burn, kill, and loot, and throw the followers of the Kaga Ichiku sect into a cauldron and boil them to death.
, massacred hundreds of thousands of people throughout Kaga and then frightened the remaining remaining forces. Kaga has always been unfaithful to nature. He is very clear about the saying that cutting the grass does not remove the roots but the spring breeze will bring new growth.
However, there is no point in unilateral massacre. Ishiyama Honganji Temple is still standing on the south bank of the Yodogawa River. Asakura Yoshikage is not the powerful Uesugi Kenshin in history who hated Ichibune. Since the death of the Asakura family, Asakura Soutei has become like a
The chickens that had just suffered from the plague were wilted and huddled in the city of Ichijodani, living listlessly, even Echizen's always paying no attention to it.
Without the active cooperation of the Asakura family, there would be no strategy of blocking both ends. Even if they win one or two wars and invade Kaga Country, it would be meaningless to kill them indiscriminately and then retreat. If they cannot kill all the backbones who have always been stubborn, they will escape to
Taking refuge in the imperial palace of Echizen Ichimumu was like cutting the weeds without eradicating the roots. Waiting for a year and a half would give Kaga a spectacular scene like a spring breeze coming overnight and thousands of pear trees blooming.
The main rear of Ishiyama Honganji Temple is not down. If you go to attack the Kaga Ichimu clan, it will be nothing. If you knock down the front foot and retreat, they can follow and recover. You send 10,000 or 8,000 defenders to suppress the situation.
Not to mention the little tricks of Ishiyama Honganji Temple, if an army of 20,000 to 30,000 people were sent to guard Kaga for three to five years, then there would really be nothing to do and just keep an eye on Kaga's every move all day long!
Even if it takes a lot of effort to relocate all the natives of Kaga Kingdom, it will not be completed in a year or two. A complete fight with the Ichiki clan will be a long-lasting war. Ishiyama Honganji may find an opportunity to move from
There is going to be an edict from the Enryaku Temple on Mount Hiei to attack the enemies of the Buddha. When the time comes, they will go to the Ashikaga family and eat mutton, which will really make them embarrassed.
In the next few days, Kasugayama Castle held numerous meetings. The retainers of the generation changed the topic from going south to Kanto to discussing the plan to rescue Vietnam and China. One sunny afternoon, another small meeting was held at the home of the Kasugayama Castle evaluation room. A group of
The important ministers sat together to discuss how to send troops to assist Vietnam and China.
After many days of meeting torture, many samurai's faces showed signs of exhaustion. Hosokawa Fujitaka rubbed his temples to relieve fatigue and asked hesitantly: "The strategy set by the Lord is to send troops south to Kanto this year, but I don't know
Will this delay delay this year's strategic plan? If the plan to enter Kanto is delayed, when will it be implemented?"
The light in Masatora Uesugi's eyes flashed, he slowly closed his eyes and pinched his rosary beads and whispered softly: "It depends on the speed of Kaga's deployment. If calculated according to the normal recruitment rate, Kaga will probably be the best."
We still have to wait two months to enter Vietnam. There is still plenty of time to prepare! In addition, the war in Vietnam is only a local war. It is enough to send 8,000 elite aids. We only need to wait for Kaga to invade Vietnam.
China's renewed efforts to defeat the invading enemy should not affect this year's military deployment."
Nangokang Toutou shook his feather fan lightly and said with a smile: "The Lord's intention should be to hurt the Kaga Ichimu clan and make them realize that they are no match for us, so that they can easily negotiate the terms of peace without war, and have the power of Vietnam and China."
It is enough to defend Echigo's flank on the western front, but it would be worse to rashly involve Kaga in the quagmire of Kai, just as the Lord does not want to get involved in the quagmire of Kai, and would rather use an army of 19,000 to pin the Takeda clan.
Takeda Daizenden has no room for maneuver, and it is not willing to easily get involved in the quagmire of Kai."
Honda was thinking for a while and answered the question: "Actually, Suwa County and Ina County in Minami Shinano are not difficult to obtain, but we are worried that the persecution will be too hasty and call in the coalition forces of Hojo and Imagawa. If the two counties of Shinano are lost,
This means that the Takeda family's strategy in Shinano was completely defeated. If Takeda Shingen is determined to fight to the death with us and put Shinano's safety at risk, it is better to give him a little false hope so that he can maintain his confidence.
We must keep the last spark of hope alive and not dare to overly force the Lord to bring out a large army to seize these two counties."
"This is the same as the release of six thousand prisoners. It gives Takeda Daisenden a hope to persevere. Only false hope with hidden dangers allows him to find ways to continue to expand and maintain the family business, instead of acting like an injured orphan.
The wolf stared at me, the Ashikaga clan, and kept biting at me. My Lord's goal was always to go south to Kanto, rather than to resolve personal grudges with the Takeda Daisenden.
Didn't the Lord once say that military affairs are the most realistic thing in the world, but there is no room for tenderness, let alone naive delusions. However, the most important thing in battle formations is profit, which does more harm than good.
We cannot fight a war without seizing an enclave that cannot be maintained, and do not fight a joint war with no benefits. Nowadays, fighting Kaifei will do more harm than good, and fighting Kaga will do more harm than good. If the two swamps are accidentally sunk into the mud, they will not be able to fight.
It’s easy to handle.”
The Ashikaga family of the Kamiseki family is in the period of rising wealth. A series of victories has brought countless glory, but it has also put the family governor and the clan of family members under tremendous pressure. If they fail to win one or two key battles, they will lose their troops and be defeated.
, he might end up returning to the embarrassing situation before liberation overnight. This is not because he was covered by the shogunate in Kyoto, or because of the three hundred years of influence accumulated in his hometown of Mikawa Province. His personal prestige was accumulated through military exploits, causing
The Ashikaga family has insufficient accumulation and background.
Because of this, Kira Yoshitoki's military strategy is extremely cautious, and the selection of generals should be based on calmness and solidity. For example, young generals like Takikawa Tokimasu are bound to Kasugayama Castle early.
The same principle applies to garrison. Maintaining a huge family is like running your own life. It is impossible to hide your edge without sharpening your edges.
Although the sharpness is good, it has the problem of being strong and easy to break. It is not good to have something too sharp and hurt yourself one day. Another example is that when I served as the horseback general Zenjiro Yamaoka, I was restrained by Yoshitoki Kira for ten years.
In 2000, a young and handsome young man was polished into a mature and stable horseback general. If he hadn't been polished to a great effect, Kira Yoshishi would not have dared to let him stay by his side and become this horseback general. (
