Yiyin's mentality is very simple, try his best to do things well. And it is not difficult for a person to do things well.
Solve your own problems, help others develop, and profit from it.
The truth is simple, but human nature is complex. How many people can insist on doing these three things?
Echigo's problem was not that Uesugi Terutora wasn't strong enough, but that her family was the dominant one and was too full. The other samurai families didn't get the benefits, so they naturally became alienated.
No matter how powerful Shangyue is, how much military strength can it produce? One hundred thousand dan? Two hundred thousand dan?
Echigo's 400,000 koku, plus the profit of gold, silver, green hemp and sea salt, can mobilize at least 600,000 koku in military strength.
If you want to sweep through Guandong, restore a clear world to this land, and complete the system's tasks, you must have enough manpower to suppress the local area and establish effective rule.
Then, the Echigo samurai family, who are Uesugi Terutora's base, not only cannot hold back, but must also wholeheartedly support her external expansion.
Profit sharing today is for more benefits tomorrow.
When the samurai present were confused about the generosity of their master, Honjo Shimanaga was the one who answered, and he felt more confident. There is no free lunch in the world.
Any benefit must be obtained in exchange. If the owner gives so much, he will definitely want a lot more.
Her face was solemn, she kowtowed to the ground and said.
"Your Highnesses are so kind. I, the people of Yangbei, are deeply grateful. I will go through fire and water and be willing to die for hawks and dogs."
He said it righteously, but in his heart he made up his mind that if the conditions offered by the host's family were too harsh, he would turn his back on it when he returned.
At worst, I won't give up these benefits. I can't lose all my family property because of greed.
Teruhora Uesugi and Yoshihiro Shiba are both veterans of politics, and of course they will not be fooled by her impassioned appearance.
The two of them knew exactly what kind of bastards the martial artists were.
The two of them are the bastards among bastards. When the top brass fights, they are much more sinister than the Ji warriors below.
It was Yiyin who finally spoke, finally showing off his drama.
"The Ise woman pretended to be the Hojo Miaoji, imprisoned the Kamakura Lord, and destroyed two Uesugi families. The general was furious when he heard about it.
Fortunately, the governor of the Uesugi family escaped from the mountain and entrusted the family business to His Highness Teru Uesugi, who succeeded him as the governor of Kantō and brought order to the chaos.
The general was overjoyed and ordered me to come to Kanto to stand up for His Highness Uesugi, restore justice, and bring peace to the Kanto samurai family!"
All the samurai took a breath of air. No wonder Uesugi Teruhora was so generous. It turned out that he wanted everyone to go to the Kanto Plain to fight.
Benzhuang Fanchang's eyes are rolling around. This advantage is really hot. Do you want Yang Beizhong to participate in it?
Crossing the Echigo Mountains to confront the powerful Hojo family was no mere domestic rebellion.
Although the martial arts families in various countries are of the same lineage as the royal family, their relationship has long been weak due to their multiplication for hundreds of years, and the struggle for power has been bloody and violent.
The battle for the Kanto Plain will definitely be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and we don’t know how many of our Ji warriors will die.
Seeing that she was silent, Yiyin knew that she was hesitating and continued.
"The Kanto governor has always taken office at Tsuruoka Hachimangu Shrine in Kamakura. When everything is ready, I will go there with His Highness Teru Uesugi to read out the imperial edict."
Of course Ashikaga Yoshiteru could not ask for it to be read out like this. This was Yoshihiro's private tampering with the meaning.
Hachimangu Shrine is the holy place of the samurai family. Among the four hachimangu palaces, the samurai family attaches most importance to Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine in Kamakura because it enshrines two imperial white flags.
At the beginning, the Minamoto no Yoshi family, the ancestor of the Kawachi Minamoto clan, fought against the indigenous Mao people in Kanto, and the war lasted for twelve years.
His sister Minamoto Yoshimitsu, the ancestor of the Takeda family, came to Kanto to support her. She encountered a ghost in the mountains of Kai Country and was unable to escape.
Later, I met a silent woodcutter who led the way, and white flags appeared along the way to guide me.
After walking out of the mountain, I looked back and saw the eight white flags leading the way at the top of the mountain, and I was shocked to realize that it was Hachiman God’s blessing.
Hachiman-no-Okami refers to the fifteenth generation emperor and is a royal deity, while Genji is of royal blood, and Hachiman-no-Okami is also regarded as the protector of Genji.
After Minamoto Yoshimitsu came out of the mountain, he informed the fighting Minamoto Yoshiki about the incident. The Minamoto Yoshiki simply put up a white flag as their symbol. This was the first royal white flag.
After the Twelve Years' War, the imperial court ignored the meritorious service of the Hime samurai. The Minamoto no Yoshi family sold their business and gave a reward to the Kanto samurai family, obtaining their oath to be loyal to the direct descendants of the Minamoto clan in Kawachi from generation to generation.
Later, Minamoto Yori, the first shogun of the Kamakura shogunate, raised troops towards Kantō and raised a second royal white flag, and the Kantō samurai gathered under it.
The Kawachi Genji, who respected the white flag, fought against the Isehei clan who respected the red flag. The Genji and the Taira fought in Kantō and defeated Kansai, and the Genji became the backbone of the samurai family.
The first shogun Minamoto Yoritomo ordered the white flag to represent the Minamoto clan and enshrined the two white flags at Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine. This shrine became a sacred place for the samurai family.
Even though Ashikaga Yoshimitsu slaughtered the imperial court and destroyed Shintoism, he did not touch Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine in Kamakura.
To this day, the succession of the Kanto generals and Kanto governors still has to be held in the palace.
Kamakura is in Sagami Province, which is the country where Hojo Castle Odawara Castle is located. To go to Kamakura, pass through Ueno and Musashi Ryogoku.
The Ueno National Stone is 500,000 stone high, and the Musashi National Stone is 670,000 stone high. It is a fertile and prosperous land in the Kanto Plain.
Honjo Shibunaga thought to himself, what does Odaisuo mean by these words? My heart beats faster, could it be...
Sure enough, Yiyin said.
"The journey to Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine in Kamakura is extremely difficult. There are countless rebels along the way, and we need the help of loyal and brave samurai.
I use my sword to assure everyone that the Hime samurai who are loyal to the shogunate, loyal to the Kanto governor, and bravely move forward to open the road to Kamakura will be generously rewarded!
Clear out the rebellious territory along the way and secure it for loyal people to protect the place!"
The atmosphere in the whole place suddenly ignited. Although everyone was communicating in low voices, the collective buzz almost lifted the roof.
Ueno Country? Musashi Country? That’s a fertile land without heavy snowfall in winter!
If this guarantee comes from Terutora Uesugi, these samurai may not believe it.
But the imperial sword used by the emperor was used as a guarantee, and he also promised to follow him to Tsuruoka Hachimangu Shrine, so he was supervising the execution?
With a direct descendant of Kawachi Genji as guarantor, this matter is really worth fighting for.
Honjo Shigenaga was a little hesitant, but Nakajo Fujishi's faction was fine, but some of the Yanghoku people he led were not happy about Uesugi Teruhora.
If you go abroad to fight, if you don't get the benefits and you become cannon fodder instead, it's not worth it.
The battle formation is ruthless, and it is very easy to pull a dirty trick. No one can guarantee the safety of the battle formation.
Yiyin glanced at her before speaking.
"I will use the Imperial Sword Order to reopen the Guandong Palace, manage the affairs of the imperial family, and ensure that all parties are treated fairly."
After speaking, he looked at Daxiong Chaoxiu.
Daxiong Chaoxiu shook his body, immediately kowtowed to the ground and said.
"The Imperial Palace is so valiant that I am willing to serve you as a servant."
Benzhuang Fanchang felt something in his heart, and he fell to the ground and said.
"The actions of the emperor moved the heaven and the earth. I am a fan of the village but I am not willing to be inferior to others. I am willing to serve you and do whatever I want to do for you."
Yiyin nodded with satisfaction.
These two people had no dealings with the Shin-Uesugi family and were most afraid of being treated unfairly. As soon as Yoshigami opened the waiting room, they rushed in to take refuge.
Why do human beings like to form cliques? It’s because their nature is to stick together for warmth and help relatives but not others. If there is no one to help, they will be tricked to death sooner or later.
Regardless of whether the institution of the Servant House would conflict with Teru Uesugi's rights, the two of them would definitely choose to join forces.
When the sky falls, there will naturally be an imperial platform to support it, so I can find a place to shelter myself from the wind and rain.
The benefits mentioned above are that the new Shangshang retainers group all have a share of profit, so of course they sit obediently and enjoy the share of fruits.
But after talking about the economic profit distribution, Yiyin began to use its services to attract people and establish its own power center, and their faces began to look unnatural.
Uesugi Teruhora's full support resulted in the emergence of two power centers in Echigo, and the new Uesugi retainers were dissatisfied.
All the Ji warriors had no choice but to hold it in their hearts and make further calculations in the future.
Yiyin glanced at the people in the shirts and saw them sneering and saying nothing. He knew that there would be a collision sooner or later, so he gave them a blow first.
First, the two matters of profit distribution and service were done well, so that Yoshigan had a foundation in the Echigo samurai family, unlike before, which was like a rootless duckweed.
The reason for mentioning Hojo Takahiro's rebellion until the end is to establish his prestige.
Hojo Takahiro is the retainer of the new Uesugi family tree. He is a direct descendant of the Oe clan's Mori family, a famous imperial family. He is a good thing to scare the monkeys.
Yiyin's face was stern, and the Ji warriors who were discussing the situation in low voices gradually noticed the unkind look on Odaisuo's face, and their voices gradually became lower.
Yiyin said coldly.
“Any merit should be rewarded, and any fault should be punished.
I almost forgot that the rebels of this rebellion have not yet been dealt with."
Yoshigan glanced at Hojo Takahiro coldly, making her scalp tingle and he cursed secretly.
Nagao Zhengjing shuts himself up and thinks about his faults, Daxiong Chaoxiu has made great achievements, and this village has no faults.
Did I start this rebellion by myself? Are you going to put the blame on my head?
