Satake Yoshige has already knelt down at the foot of the Imperial Palace. How is this possible? Yoshige couldn't believe it, and the ladies present couldn't believe it either.
This Satake Yishige, who united all the families in the East, secretly planned to start a rebellion, tried to kidnap the saint to control the princes, and went so crazy that he destroyed embankments and flooded fields.
How could she suddenly run to Taicheng, the capital of the country, and kneel under the city to beg for punishment from the saint?
Yiyin's expression was uncertain, Daodaosi Shengchang thought for a long time, then came out and bowed.
"Sage, I once had a relationship with Satake Yoshige, and I recognize this Bando Queen.
Can I go and have a look?"
If the man kneeling under the castle is really Satake Yishige, it would shatter the dreams of many people. Many people are gearing up to win the saint's favor by killing Satake's military exploits.
The main thing is that Satake Yoshi is so cowardly. Hojo Ujimasa, Shimakatsu Takeo and others will definitely be extremely disappointed, but the most disappointed person is none other than Satomi Yoshihide.
It's ridiculous, because from the beginning he didn't want to get involved in the war between Shiba Yoshigan and Satake Yoshige. Satomi Yoshihide even sent his daughter to wander in the south of Shimonoseki, dilly-dallying and refusing to go north.
The Satomi family wants to be an outsider and wait until they see the situation clearly before making a choice, but what will be the result?
If Satake Yishige was really the one who knelt down in Taicheng, the capital, Satomi Yoshihara would have been unable to cry. She was so unjust.
Satake Yoshige seemed to be guilty of a heinous crime, but she was not unforgivable because she had never faced a saint on the battlefield, let alone pointed a sword at a saint.
The Satake family is a well-known Minamoto family. They have cultivated Hitachi for five hundred years and have deep roots.
With the sage's temperament of attaching importance to the lintel, as long as the Satake family gives in and hands over the seven northern Hitachi counties, Satake Yoshitaka's end may not be bad.
Keli was miserable when she saw Yiyao. Although she was hiding from the saint, he was chasing after the house owner and the coalition forces, and she was also very desperate.
The Satomi family was forced to fight back. They really showed their swords to the saint on the battlefield and stubbornly resisted. The Satomi family could not escape the sin of great disrespect and injustice. The blame was firmly laid on them.
The reality is so cold and humorous. The real rebels may have a way to survive, but the fence-sitters on both ends of the spectrum may end up in a worse fate.
However, Daidaiji Morimasa didn't care about this. She hoped that the person under the castle was really Satake Yishige, so this battle wouldn't have to continue.
The core force of the Hojo family has not yet arrived, so as long as this battle is over, it will be the best.
In that case, what Hojo Genan and Daidaiji Morimasa were most worried about, that the saint would use the war rewards to create a large number of pro-Shiba faction within the Hojo family, would not happen.
Of course, even if they get what they want, the Hojo retainers group will inevitably slowly slip into the pro-Shiba line, and this result will not change.
But this state of slowly integrating into Shiba's divine authority can make the old people of the Hojo family feel a little more comfortable. The Hojo family does not have a shovel to kneel down and lick, so their self-esteem will not be too uncomfortable.
One day, when the old people close their eyes, the future of the Hojo family will be completely handed over to the young people.
I will sleep forever after I die, and the Hojo family can go and have fun with you.
Perhaps this is the unique stubbornness of the elderly. They remember the difficulties of their ancestors in starting a business and are unwilling to face the cruelty of reality.
Daodaoji Shengchang left in a hurry, and Yiyin slowly sat back in his seat, his mind running rapidly.
Although what he saw before him was a little unbelievable, his reason told him that most of the people under the castle were really Satake Yishige.
Because there is no point in pretending to be Satake Yishige. There are people who do the business of beheading. Who is willing to do such a useless thing?
Impersonating Satake Yoshige, he led a few people and Qingqi went to Taicheng, the capital of the country, and knelt down. What was this impostor trying to do?
Yiyin only needs to send the confidentiality team of Wuying Caizang to Xiaojincheng to investigate, and they can immediately identify the authenticity.
Originally, Yiyin was planning to rest for a day in Taicheng, the national capital. This day was enough time for the truth to come to light.
He could not think of anyone who had the need to impersonate Satake Yoshige and who would benefit from impersonating Satake Yoshige.
There is only one truth. As long as other possibilities are eliminated, no matter how unbelievable the truth is, it must be the truth.
Yiyin thought about it.
Satake Yoshige suddenly realized her conscience and went south alone to plead guilty. Something unexpected must have happened in the north, which made her feel desperate, so she took the risk and gambled on her kindness.
Yiyin is very clear about his image in the minds of the Wu family. His seemingly indecisive persona has actually solved a lot of troubles for him.
Because everyone knows that he is soft-hearted, his opponents rarely resist to the end.
It is not the Holy Mother who treats the captives favorably, but wisdom. This is the same principle as surrounding Sanque.
Never let your opponent fall into desperate despair. Giving your opponent a way to survive and letting your opponent have a sense of luck is the most effective psychological attack tactic.
No one really wants to die if they can live.
Just when Yiyin was thinking divergently and waiting for the reward of Daodao Temple's prosperity, another person crept outside the door.
She walked up to Wuying Caizang who was sitting at the end of the door, lowered her head and whispered something into her ear, then hurriedly left.
Wuying Caizang's eyes flashed, and he came out of the queue and bowed.
"Sage, there is new military information arriving."
Yiyin glanced at the whole audience, and Wuying Caizang dared to speak in public, which should be a good thing.
"you say."
Kirikage Caizang bowed again and said.
"A few days ago, Lord Shimakatsu Takeo arrived at Kuribashi in the northwest of Kanjuku to integrate the Higashi Musashi samurai family, stimulated the three Yoshira Nagao Narita families, promoted the integration of the rebel army, and served as the general.
Later, Lord Shima Katsuo reprimanded the leader of Furukawa for his inaction.
General Kantō personally came to Kuribashi and planted the imperial flag in the rebel formation. Haru Kada helped his troops march out of Furukawa, and the Yuki family also followed suit.
Lord Ota Shisho of Iwafushi Castle also sent troops to the general state, uniting relatives and friends from various families to participate in the grand event and fight against the difficulties.
The rebels share the same hatred of the enemy, and Lord Dao Shengmeng has already sent his troops southward, aiming directly at Guansu City.
The news came from three days ago."
Yiyin nodded and said.
"Shima Katsu is so crazy, how can she be rude to General Kanto."
After a mild rebuke, Yoshigan finally understood why Satake Yishige came to Taicheng, the capital of the country, to beg for mercy like a bereaved dog.
This guy Shima Sheng is fierce, she is really fierce.
It is not difficult for her to integrate the Tomusashi Bushi family.
Yoshigan has merged the Higashi Musashi Territory into the Kanto Shiba Territory, and with Shima Katsuki as acting official, it will be easy for him to select several future subordinates.
It is not difficult for her to integrate the three Yura Nagao Narita families.
Satake Yoshige led 12,000 men and besieged Kogane Castle with 3,000 men. Among those besieged were the male troops of the Yura family, and the fathers, husbands and sons of Yura Nagao and Narita's three daughters were all trapped in the city.
The issue of the men's army has already made the Yura family's Hime Samurai the laughing stock of the whole Kanto samurai family. Shima Shengteng only needs to use some small tricks to provoke the generals. It will be surprising if the three Yura girls are not crazy.
What really moved Yoshigami was that Shima Katsu fiercely scolded Ashikaga Yoshiji, so that the Kanto general could not continue to sit on the Diaoyutai and obediently came to cheer for her.
Although the Kanto shoguns have been reduced to puppets, after all, they are the Kamakura Ashikaga family who have nominally ruled the ten countries of Kanto for two hundred years. Generally, the Kanto samurai family will never point their noses at the Ashikaga Yoshiji.
The Wu family values etiquette and dignity.
Shima Katsuo, as a Shiba retainer, rebuked Ashikaga Yoshiji for his inaction, forcing the Kanto general to go to Kuri Bridge in person to raise the imperial flag to express his position.
This is transgression, but it is also loyalty. To transgress against the Kamakura Ashikaga family is rude, but to be loyal to the saint, Shima Shengmu is a true loyal minister.
From now on, the Kamakura Ashikaga brand may be completely ruined and no one will take it seriously anymore, but the effect at this time is absolutely excellent.
When Ashikaga Yoshiji moves, what reason does Harusuke Kada have to hide behind and pretend to be dead? The Furukawa Territory is her territory, and Sekijuku Castle is the foundation of the Kada family. She just threw it away. Doesn't she have any responsibility?
It may not be possible to avoid being liquidated for his mistakes after the war. Harusuke Kada, an old fox, can only be forced out, and Sekisu Castle will be easy to fight.
Satake Yoshitaka took Sekishuku Castle in a surprise attack, but the local people's hearts were not on her side.
As long as Kada Harusuke is willing to help, and with her family's confidence in operating in Kanjuku for more than a hundred years, whether she finds someone to secretly open the city gate, or some other method, Kanjuku Castle will be captured quickly.
In addition, in summary, the Cheng family is stuck in the logistics line of the Eastern Army on the northern line. They have been harassing them tepidly these days, with no results or faults.
Now that Shima Katsuo was so vicious and threatening to the Kanto General, the Yuki family immediately became scared and quickly went to work to help.
Kada Harusuke is worried about being liquidated, and the Yuki family will also be worried. The Yura family may be able to maintain the respect of the Yuki family, but it is hard to say whether it will reduce their territory.
In the final analysis, face is given by others, and face is lost by oneself. The overall situation has been decided, and if the Yuki family continues to pretend to be dead and do nothing, it will not be good for them in the future.
Shima Shengmeng doesn't even look down on General Kanto. How dare the Yuki family let her get the handle? Send out troops when it's time and work when it's time.
Once the gates on the left and right of Furukawa City and Yuki City were closed, the retreat route for the people from the East was completely cut off.
As for Ota Shimasa, this old man always had a good time in the Musashi area and was surrounded by relatives and friends.
With the help of this local snake, Dao Shengmeng, an outsider, would not fall headlong into an unfamiliar environment and be tricked by the locals.
Even though it had only been a few days since Dao Shengmeng arrived at the front line, she was thorough in everything she did. She immediately revitalized the chaotic situation in the north and mobilized everyone.
Although Kirigage's information was said to be from three days ago, Yoshigan has reason to believe that Guansu City has fallen into the hands of Shima Shengmu at this moment.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Satake Yoshitaka suddenly went south to ask for surrender.
Once Sekijuku Castle is cleared, the rebels supporting Yoshigan will come one after another along the Tone River. Satake Yoshige will face the dilemma of being attacked from both sides in Kogane Castle.
Given the current internal hesitation and restlessness of the Eastern People, as soon as the news of Guansu Castle's change of hands spreads, Satake Yishige's coalition forces will immediately fall apart, and she will be betrayed immediately.
Rather than being sold, Satake Yoshige would be better off asking for surrender and surrendering on his own, which is worse than being kidnapped and presented in front of Yoshiginza.
Yiyin estimated that as soon as she received the news about Guan Sucheng, she immediately came to beg for surrender and sold the Dongfangzhong's followers first. She was a cruel person.
At this moment, Daodaoji Shengchang hurriedly returned from outside, bowed and said.
"Sage, the person below the castle is really Satake Yishige. I chatted with her for a few words at the top of the castle and I can confirm it."
It was late at night at this time, and it was impossible to open the city gate. Daidaiji Shengmao just asked a few questions at the top of the city and determined that the person under the city was Satake Yishige. In fact, he was a little impetuous.
On the one hand, she had selfish motives and hoped that the person under the castle would be Satake Yoshige. On the other hand, she also felt that no one would be so bored as to pretend to be Satake Yoshige and beg for surrender. It was really pointless.
Yiyin glanced at Daodaosi Shengchang and half-smiled.
"It's already late at night. Let's all go back and rest. Once we've regained our energy, we'll come back to discuss things tomorrow."
Daodao Temple Shengchang asked a question.
"Sage, what should I do with Satake Yishige under the castle?"
Yiyin smiled.
"If she wants to kneel, let her kneel slowly. The long night is a good time to think about the future, so as not to miss anything again."
Yiyin, who had been worried about the safety of Xiaojin City, felt relaxed at this moment and suddenly felt sleepy. He didn't want to worry about anything now and just wanted to have a good sleep.
Now is not a good time to see Satake Yoshitaka. Tomorrow morning, it will be interesting if the people from the East outside Xiaogan City find out that Satake Yoshitaka is missing.
When the people of the East were defeated and surrendered, Satake Yishige had no bargaining chips in his hands, and it was really fish and meat on the chopping board, and Yoshihiro could do whatever he wanted.
Now, let Satake Yoshitaka kneel under the city and think it over carefully. If you regret it now, it's still too late to go back.
Yiyin yawned. Go to sleep first and talk about it when you wake up.
