Volume 7 Jiangnan Green Looking Maple Red Chapter 1012 Stone Out
Let's broadcast the time back two years ago, on the evening of January 2, the eighth year of Tensho (1580), in Honnoji Temple, in Oda Nobunaga's dormitory.
Lin Xiuzhen had just finished a failed frame-up activity, and the sudden appearance of Akechi Mitsuhide made his plan to frame Yu Qiupei's rebellion completely in vain. At this moment, he was kneeling in front of Oda Nobunaga, begging him to agree to his plan.
"You want Yu Zhui to release you and deprive you of all the territory that your family has served the Oda family for generations, just to investigate the red leaves?" No matter how many times he heard it, Oda Nobunaga still felt that Lin Xiuzhen was too ridiculous, "Is this necessary?
?”
"The crows from Yuqiu's family have infiltrated many people in Oda's house. Wouldn't the old minister's actions this time be seen through? If he stays at Oda's house to investigate Yuqiu Hongye, I'm afraid he will be discovered in a few months.
What’s the point?” Lin Xiuzhen also stated her thoughts to Oda Nobunaga over and over again.
"Without you Sado, things in the dark will fall behind a lot. Is Hongye really worth it for you to do this? Is it worth giving up everything to stare at him?" Oda Nobunaga paced around the room a little irritably.
, and asked dissatisfiedly.
"He has earth-shaking abilities. It is no exaggeration to say that he is one of the best in the world. If such a person is suspicious, the great cause of the Oda family will be in danger." Lin Xiuzhen did not hesitate to praise Yu Qiuping, nor did she hide it.
My own doubts about Yu Qiuping.
"Yu is always very good at judging people. Hongye is not a person with evil intentions."
"If you don't have it now, it doesn't mean you won't have it in the future. Human emotions are the most fragile and fickle things." Lin Xiuzhen once again repeated the cliché he had said countless times, "Yuqiu Hongye and my lord, there will be inevitable benefits in the future.
Conflict. If you want to conquer the dynasty and conquer the Ming Dynasty, Yuqiu Hongye will definitely not agree; if Yuqiu Hongye wants to implement his reforms, it will definitely damage the foundation of the Wu family, and you will definitely not agree. When the conflict intensifies, my lord, you will definitely not agree.
How can we guarantee that Hongye will not have any dissatisfaction at that time? How can we not let the old minister make preparations first?"
"No matter what I say, will you never change your mind?" Oda Nobunaga looked at the old minister kneeling in front of him and suddenly felt that he was old. He had started to kneel like this since more than 30 years ago.
He fell in front of him. But no matter how low Lin Xiuzhen's posture was, Oda Nobunaga would never despise his teacher in the slightest. If his feelings for Hirate Masahide were more of respect and love, then he only had respect for Lin Xiuzhen.
.
"Old minister, my mind has been made up." Lin Xiuzhen repeated what he had said long ago.
"Then you should also go to Mount Koya to accompany Captain Youemon." Oda Nobunaga sneered twice, pondered for a moment and then said sarcastically, "The crime is... when the family governor succeeded to the throne more than 20 years ago, you stood on the side of Yuna's younger brother.
"
·
Two years later, on the evening of April 12, the tenth year of Tensho (1582), Oda Nobunaga, who was about to fall asleep, was called by the Kamao clan in Honnoji Temple in Kyoto. Oda Nobunaga did not ask who the visitor was.
, because there was only one person who was qualified to ask the guards to report Oda Nobunaga before he went to bed - Lin Xiuzhen.
"Hongye came to Mount Koya a few days ago to find an old minister. Captain Youemon's big mouth almost leaked the information that I often leave Mount Koya. Fortunately, Hongye didn't care." Lin Xiuzhen knelt down and saluted Oda Nobunaga as usual.
"Yu knew he was looking for you, and he specifically told Yu before he came." Oda Nobunaga nodded without any surprise, "What did he ask you?"
"He is still investigating the matter of Imagawa Yoshimoto. He visited Imagawa Clan before, probably for this reason." Lin Xiuzhen told the truth.
After replying, Oda Nobunaga's face instantly darkened.
"Do you need more evidence, my lord? Yuqiu Hongye has already made it clear that he has a dissatisfaction with you. If you don't take action first, he might be the first to take action." Lin Xiuzhen raised her head and looked at Oda Nobu.
With a bad look on his face, he said, "Isn't there enough evidence provided by the old minister in the past two years? Isn't it enough to support your order to deal with Yuqiu Hongye?"
Seeing that Oda Nobunaga was speechless, Lin Xiuzhen continued in a low voice: "The assassination incident that caused a sensation in Kyoto and Kinki at that time, Yuqiu Hongye was definitely involved. The veteran checked the location where Yuqiuyou's patrol team was attacked, and there were traces of fighting there.
It doesn’t match Yu Qiuyou’s description. The veteran estimates that it was not because he came out to report the news in advance that he survived. It is more likely that the killer spared Yu Qiuyou alone. There was also a fight in the mountains and forests west of Kyoto.
The Qiu family also did not report this matter, but Yu Qiushang and his bodyguards were definitely involved in that fight. In addition to the late emperor, the three victims in the assassination that year were Izumo Aguo, Honganji Hiroru, and Floy
Si, all of them had interacted with Yu Qiuping before they were killed. Especially Flois, who clearly had nothing to do with any force and had no influence worthy of attention, but was executed because he met Yu Qiuping.
. With the three evidences taken together, Yuqiu Hongye must be related to the serial assassinations. It’s no wonder that we couldn’t find out no matter how we investigated afterwards, it must have been the ninjas of the Yuqiu family who were causing trouble.”
"After the conquest of the East Kingdom, Yuqiu Momiji's whereabouts were also strange. He was suspected of having contact with Fuma Kotaro, the leader of the Fuma Ninjas after the capture of Odawara Castle. After that, Fuma Kotaro disappeared. Reminiscent of the fact that he had met him before
The mysterious death of Hojo Genan, who is alone across the street, must have a connection that we can hardly imagine. Moreover, the Hojo family was once the in-laws of the Imagawa family, and they took in the Imagawa clan after the collapse of the Imagawa family. Let’s think of the many stories before Uaki Momiji.
A real conversation with the Imagawa clan..."
"Are you going to rely on these pretentious things to make Yu kill the most important minister in the family?" Oda Nobunaga interrupted Lin Xiuzhen impatiently, and it was obvious that he was in a terrible mood.
"My lord is going to Korea. Yuqiu Hongye has already stated that he will not accompany the army, right? Let's not talk about whether our army can successfully land without the help of the Hongye fleet. Even if it is possible, can my lord safely send the main force to North Korea while leaving a and
Are there any clues about the dissidents in the Ming Dynasty who are stationed in the mainland?" Lin Xiuzhen's series of questions made Oda Nobunaga's face become increasingly stiff, "What's more, the Hongye Army is fierce in combat. If there is a real rebellion, the Hongye Fleet will take over.
The main force is trapped in North Korea, and the Hongye army has swept across the mainland. What should we do? In any case, the Yuqiu family must deal with it before going to North Korea. However, Yuqiu Hongye is usually kind to others, and has a good reputation in the Oda family and has good connections.
It is widely supported by the people. If we can't find a suitable reason to start a war and declare war on the Yuqiu family, many people will come to the side of the Yuqiu family. Considering that the brave and good warrior
Hongye Army, even if we want to deal with the Yuqiu family, we may not be able to win."
"How can Yu have so much time? Yu is already 49, how many years can he live? The conquest of Korea and the Ming Dynasty took a long time. It is already too late if we don't start now. How can we spend time dealing with the Yuqiu family?
"The more Oda Nobunaga talked, the angrier he became. Finally, he kicked over the table next to him and kicked him a few more times to vent his anger.
"I have a trick that can handle all these things at once, but I don't know if my lord is willing." Lin Xiuzhen paused, then whispered meaningfully.
Oda Nobunaga did not reply, but looked condescendingly at Lin Xiuzhen with hawk-like eyes.
"Your Majesty,
The puppet general Ashikaga Yoshinishi is currently living in seclusion on Oki Island. However, his hiding place has been discovered by the veteran. The veteran kidnapped his wife and children as hostages when he first went to the island. At this moment, he can only let the veteran
At his mercy, the veteran can force him to return to the territory of the Maori family and declare an army, thus giving the lord an excuse to attack the Maori family. At that time, the lord can swear the authority of the Oda family and summon all the famous names in the world to lead an army to attack the Maori family. Wait for it.
After leaving the Maori family, we sent them directly across the sea to conquer Korea. Those big names are all in Kinki, far away from their homeland and cannot make waves. Even if you want to oppose them, it will be useless."
"If we want to conquer the Mori family, Sanyo Road will bear the brunt. On Sanyo Road, Bichu Takamatsu Castle will bear the brunt. The veteran has already surveyed and found that the terrain of Bitchu Takamatsu Castle is extremely easy to attack by water. Amaki Momiji and Hashiba Hideyoshi will definitely think of this method.
. As long as Yuqiu Hongye is sent to Sanyang Road, and then he secretly manipulates the flooded dike, blows up the dike and diverts the flood back to Hongye Army, then the invincible Hongye Army can be wiped out without any effort. Yi Laochen
In my opinion, Kuroda Takataka of Hashiba's family might be happy to implement such a plan. After the embankment breaks, the war will be chaotic, and we will send assassins to secretly attack Yuqiu Momiji and kill him to avoid future troubles."
"After killing Yuqiu Hongye, we can force the second son of Yuqiu to succeed him. If the Yuqiu family refuses to accept it, we will use the world's army to crush its territory and establish its authority. For more than ten years, we have infiltrated Yuqiu's family.
We have thousands of people in various important positions in the family, and many of them have even infiltrated into the middle and high-level. We have also arranged internal agents at key points in the Yuqiu family, and can cause chaos and paralyze traffic at any time. There are also many secrets hidden in Maple Leaf Mountain City.
, if we really need to attack the city, we can seize a city gate for us in an instant. The old minister used the exclusive rights to operate the Seto Inland Sea to bribe more than a dozen Congress businessmen, and their power has vaguely controlled half of the Congress. The veteran also
On the condition of restoring the ancestral system and returning the territory, they colluded with most of the small wealthy families in the Yuqiu family. At that time, as long as you give the order, the Yuqiu family will be in chaos and self-defeating. Control Yuqiu.
After returning home, we can order the Hongye Fleet in the name of the Second Young Master and let the Hongye Fleet send the army across the sea. In this way, the problems of the Yuqiu family and Zhengchao can be solved at the same time within one year."
After hearing this, Oda Nobunaga was silent for a long time. After pacing the room for an hour, he finally nodded and said: "You should implement it first. I will talk to Hongye again then and finally ask him if he agrees."
Agree with Yu’s expedition to Korea.”
"My lord, are you still too cruel?" Lin Xiuzhen shook her head in confusion, revealing a wry smile, "You were able to kill your own brother back then, but now you are so weak that you feel compassion for a subordinate? Not to mention that one
Is it possible that the subordinates have different intentions?"
"I just cherish my talent and can't bear to part with such an outstanding person." Oda Nobunaga sneered at Lin Xiuzhen's guess and sneered twice, "But no matter how outstanding a talent is, if he blocks Yu's way, no matter whether he has any different intentions or not,
, Yu will eradicate him. Even if the person standing in front of Yu is his own son, Yu will not be lenient."
·
Before Yu Qiupei's expedition, the negotiations between Oda Nobunaga and Yu Qiupei in Settsu completely broke down, and all plans were launched. However, the development of the situation far exceeded the imagination of Oda Nobunaga and Lin Xiuzhen.
Time returns to the present, on the evening of June 11, the tenth year of Tensho (1582), in Kyoto. A large number of troops from all over the world, together with Oda Nobunaga's direct-controlled troops, marched from the Azuchi-Kyoto line to Maple Leaf Mountain Castle. But
Oda Nobunaga did not follow the army, but pointed at Lin Xiuzhen and laughed loudly in Honnoji Temple in Kyoto.
