    "Today, when Takeda Tohaku was planning to assassinate Ura Ise, our Echizen defender risked his own life to save our family, and then worked together to defeat Tohoku's assassin. He was extremely loyal and loyal. At that time, he went out to sweep away the enemy and captured him.  Those prisoners who are pleased with their loyalty and meritorious service are still like this. On March 30, the second year of Hongzhi, at the time of Ji Liangyi (monogram), Honjo Echizen went to guard" Honjo Noganaga was stunned for a while while holding a thin sheet of sentiments.  All morning, and in the afternoon, he held it and showed it off to everyone, making the envy of the Kira family's retainers turn red as rabbit eyes. They had been fighting for the Kira family for many years, and fought countless times, but in the end they never got it.  In one letter, this native Echigo boy suddenly caught something that they had not caught for many years. It was absolutely impossible not to be jealous.  Hojo Takahiro said with a hint of sourness: "You guys are so lucky. Why don't I, Takahiro, have the same luck? I can gain feelings with just one swoop. It's really a blessing that I have cultivated for three generations!" "I didn't look at those arrogant people.  Do you think our expressions have changed? It¡¯s just because this is the first expression from our lord!¡± Kurokawa Kiyomi stared at Honjo Shigenaga with amazement: ¡°Chiyo Inomaru is famous for his leap.  Oh! The famous sword Murasame has been passed down from generation to generation in Kanto, the Sarugaku compiled by Numata Uenosukeden himself, and this unprecedented first sentiment! "Honjo Shigenaga said proudly: "What are they envious of?  What's the use of having many merits in battle! I, Mancho, am the one who saved me!" "Hush!" Hojo Takahiro looked around and reminded in a low voice, "Don't tell me how many people are staring at you!  See? My lord's reward is not a sign of pride. "Oh! I understand! I'm going to put it away now!" Hey, hey, hey!  The feeling ran away in a flash.  "This kid" Hojo Takahiro smiled and said to Kurokawa Kiyomi: "Let's go to the bar and sit down?" "That's what I meant!"  At the same time.  Kira Yoshitsune was leading a thousand red cavalry.  Two hundred horseback warriors and three hundred new horseback warriors arrived outside the city of Bipa Island.  This fortress on the island in the middle of the lake relies on its excellent geographical advantages.  It became one of the famous fortresses in the Sino-Vietnamese region that was easy to defend but difficult to attack. Everyone originally thought that Usami would hold on for a few months before surrendering, but they never thought that as soon as the cavalry regiment of Kira Yoshitoshi arrived, the gates would be opened.  Welcome him in.  Usami Sadamitsu led the first clan and retainers to greet him in person. Biwajima Castle had no intention of taking precautions and opened the Otemon gate as if it was a joke, allowing the horse to return. Admiral Yamaoka Tokinaga couldn't help but murmured: "This doesn't look good! Could it be?  Isn¡¯t it the Hongmen Banquet? You can¡¯t let the master take the risk!¡± Kira Yoshitsune frowned and looked at Usami Sadamitsu, who said respectfully: ¡°Usami Sadamitsu welcomes you to the Zhenfu Palace!¡±  Let the Usami clan flourish!" Dozens of warriors shouted in unison: "Please come to the city!" Kira Yoshi stood on his horse motionless and faced Usami.  The shouts of the family samurai fell on deaf ears. Instead, he frowned and thought: "General of the Guarding House! He is the first person to mention this official of our house! What is the purpose of this Usami Sadamichi?"  The official position of the shogun was kept secret, and the Echigo samurai were happy to play dumb. As soon as this official appeared, many people guessed some ideas, and they were a little more frightened and worried about the governor of the Ashikaga family.  The general of the garrison itself is of great significance. He is the first general in the past two hundred years and the first garrison general since the Northern and Southern Dynasties. He is also the only person in the court who has the title of "general" besides the general who conquered the barbarians.  What on earth is he going to do?  What will it do?  No one knows, but what is certain is that there will be big moves.  I saw him not moving for a long time.  Usami Sadamitsu said with a hint of sarcasm: "Is the Jinfu Palace afraid of ambushing dead soldiers in the city?" Kira Yoshi glanced at the sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth, and said coldly: "How dare Usami Suruga Mamoru do this?"  "Don't dare!" Usami Sadami quickly glanced at the Akabi Cavalry. The murderous Takigawa Tokiyoshi stood beside Kira Yoshiki with a sword in his hand. He could chop off his head with just one attack.  So he bowed his head obediently to show his submission.  Kira Yoshi sneered and suddenly shouted: "Akabe, listen to the order! Enter the city immediately!" "Akabe enter the city!" "Guard every entrance!" "Those who dare to use swords and guns will be killed without mercy!" Ashikaga Niyin's two banners, such as  Big thunder shook and loud shouts came one after another. The red warriors in blood armor suddenly moved with the Ashikaga white flag. Amidst the rumbling vibrations, groups of red warriors galloped past the Usami family's warriors, leading  smoke and dustThe wind blew them around, and all the warriors present were shocked and pale.  "Is this Kira Akabi! He is truly the most powerful army in the world!" "I heard that their uniforms are dyed red with human blood! The Akabi general standing next to the Zhenfu Palace is called Onitakigawa,  Ichigo captured Naito Sokatsu alive and killed the fierce generals of Tokakusada!" "He also captured Hojo Takahiro and Honjo Noganaga!" Faced with the arrogant and domineering Akabi cavalry flying past, Usami Sadami always looked down.  He shook his head and moved for Zeng. At this moment, he finally realized the hegemonic power of power. It was not a terrifying force that could be compared with conspiracy. The invincible legion made of steel and blood carried frightening terrifying power. For the first time in his life, he faced  Doubts about one's own life.  "Does it really make sense for me to do this? Like a mantis under a big car, will it end up being crushed to death? It's really frustrating!" Usami shook his head in disappointment, any conspiracy or trick would be  Turned into ashes under the overbearing force, he seemed to understand that he had made too many mistakes.  Kira Yoshihide put away the bat fan and said proudly: "Suruga, you can go in!" "Yes! I will hold the reins for His Highness!" Usami, who has a lot of age but is very strong, jumps up like a spring.  , personally came over and held the bridle rope for him as he walked into the city. His attitude changed so quickly that many people were unexpected.  Takigawa Shiyi smiled contemptuously and winked at Yamaoka Shichou.  The samurai of the Kira family looked down upon this chameleon-like samurai family.  Those samurai who stubbornly resisted the Kira family would eventually be hanged.  But everyone still gives him some face, but the chameleon with eccentric hobbies and rebelliousness will be discriminated against even if he surrenders to the Kira family.  In the blink of an eye, the entire Biwa Island City was controlled by the Kira family's red cavalry. In addition to lances, they were also equipped with hammers, staffs, and scimitars. The five hundred horse warriors were also equipped with strong bows and cast iron feather arrows. In terms of armament,  It was so sophisticated that it blinded the eyes of the Usami warriors. The galloping red cavalry still maintained an orderly formation.  This riding skill and tacit understanding are even more frightening.  Arriving at Ohiroma, which is not a wide space in Biwajima Castle, Usami Tš­manchu asked Kira Yoshiki to take the seat and said with a smile: "Everyone says that the Akabi cavalry of the Ashikaga family is unparalleled in the world.  I really can't believe it. Now I see that the divine horse is indeed extraordinary, and there is no one who can match it! " "Suruga! You should know why my family is here, and you should know how angry my brother is, right?"  With a sneer, the Kira family warriors in the large room also started to laugh.  Usami Sadamitsu's expression changed accordingly, from joy to bitterness and finally he sighed dejectedly: "I have no choice but to do so! I was abandoned by my former allies and hated by my colleagues in Echigo. The ideals I Sadamitsu fought for have vanished.  My goal in life seemed to be a huge mistake, so when the Takeda family¡¯s messenger came to my door, I decided to raise the flag of rebellion without hesitation!¡± Kira Yoshishi picked up the bat fan and shook it gently.  As if he was thinking about a serious question, he suddenly said after a while: "Are you so rebellious? You go out of the city to meet us on the road, don't resist my family's control of Pipa Island City, and then sit across from me and talk openly?" "Yes?"  Yes! I believe that this is the only way to discuss all issues with Zhenfudian. Before that, I want to find out one question. What is the reason why Zhenfudian repeatedly refused our submission? " Usami Sadamitsu's confession?  It was much beyond his expectation. He had thought that Usami would be ready to take some action after completing his duties. However, when he arrived outside Biwa Island City, he found that there was no movement at all in the city. The townspeople were living as usual, and the farmers were busy weeding and killing insects in the new fields.  At work, there was no reaction at all when seeing the Kira family's Akabi army, so they probably thought it was just a simple visit.  The townspeople and farmers near Biwa Island Castle were so peaceful, which showed that the so-called rebellion was only superficial, and they even just sent messengers to convey the news of the rebellion, without any intention of actual rebellion. After figuring out all the reasons, Kira Yoshitoki waved his hand and gave way.  The Akabi samurai released his alert posture, and then said with a faint smile: "Why do you think I will refuse?" "Because I don't have enough weight? No! Is it because we have land knowledge and practice that do not meet the requirements of the Zhenfu Palace? It seems that this is the case  This factor" Usami Sadamitsu thought with a dull expression as he stared closely at Kiragi.  It is a small miracle that someone who is nearly seventy years old has such a strong body in this era of lack of medical treatment. It is probably for this reason that the old man who should have retired long ago still has an old heart.  He is not old and can continue to fight for twenty years.  "Is it because the Jinfu Palace has never planned to accept us as retainers? But this is wrong! Isn't it inevitable to expand the family business territory with the ambition of the Jinfu Palace? Kitano Shinano remained silent.Controlling nearly half of the territory, whoever has this means in his hands is something worth bragging about!  Why?  "Usami Sadaman is not young, but his brain works very quickly. He made more than a dozen ideas in the time it took to make a cup of tea, and finally they were classified and eliminated one by one. "It is not easy to think of this step. I want to find out the secrets of our family.  In terms of thinking, the old man is still a little behind.  "Ji Liangyi had some new views on this old man, and said calmly: "I'll just tell you the truth!  I have no intention of touching the Nagao retainers of Echigo. Otherwise, would we still need you to serve?  In three months, our family can tear apart the Nagao family retainers, and within half a year, they will all join our family, but why don't we do this?  Think about it carefully and you will understand!  " He has encountered similar problems many times, both internally and externally. Kira Yoshitoki was unwilling to simply take away the Nagao family's foundation. Instead, he inherited it after his eldest son was born.  Echigo Ikuni's method as a buffer is the best he can do. "Is that really the case?  The Zhenfu Palace has never thought of accepting me" Usami shook his head in disappointment. With his wisdom, he certainly knew that all his scheming was in vain. Thinking of the fact that he has been running up and down in the past few years to stir up trouble, just for the sake of it.  In the end, the old samurai burst into tears, and his sudden cry disrupted his original plan.  Is Suruga trying to put on a show for my family?  I respect you as an elder in this family, and we don¡¯t want you to act recklessly. It¡¯s best to put your little thoughts away!  " "I just felt so sad for a moment that I couldn't stop crying!  As expected, Usami Sadamitsu stopped crying, which made Takigawa Tokiichi turn from surprise to disdain. Then he glanced at the mediocre eldest son Usami Sadamitsu and said to himself: "No wonder this old man can even cry. His son is really useless."  The reason?  ¡± Usami Sadama has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son, Usami Minbu Shaocheng Sadakatsu, is twenty-five or six years old. He is just an ordinary samurai who is not good at literature and martial arts. He has not married a wife so far. He is really good at it.  Not so good. The second son, Usami Sajiro Katsuyuki, is only in his early twenties. He seems to have some ideas as his eyes roll around. However, his reputation is very bad and he doesn¡¯t know much about the military strategy passed down by the Usami family.  However, he fell into the bad habit of sleeping in flowers and willows in the town. The Usami family's already weak family background could not withstand the torture of this prodigal son. If it weren't for his wife's pleading, Usami would have wanted to get rid of this prodigal son.  A bastard son. His only daughter married Chisaka Kagechi a few years ago to become a close relative. He expected to find a reliable ally within the Echigo-Uesugi faction, but in the end, this son-in-law did not give him the respect of his father-in-law.  The relationship was relatively estranged. This time he sold his father-in-law without hesitation, but his relationship with Pingzi Housing Manager became closer and closer, and he almost made the old man angry to death. After a while, the old man began to cry again: "The family situation is difficult!  I didn¡¯t marry and have children until I was over forty next year. Now I am too old and unable to find any inheritance to pass on to my children and grandchildren, and my two dogs are ineffective. It is really painful to think that I have done so many things over the years but achieved nothing!  " Really unable to bear the old man's cry, Kira Yoshi knocked on the table a little irritably, and said with a serious face: "I also know a little about Suruga's situation. The reason why Suruga is in such pain is that he is too eager for quick success and quick gain.  Those who miss opportunities and fail to recognize themselves will never become strong. As a retainer of the Nagao family, you should be impartial and law-abiding. It is stupid to always think about jumping up and down to attract attention.  "I understand" Usami Sadamitsu seemed to realize that when he needed to explain, he decisively stopped crying and sat down. He coughed lightly and said slowly in an authentic Kyoto accent: "I already have a general understanding of the Suruga rebellion.  The reasons and general circumstances of the rebellion are pure farce, but the bad effects caused are irreversible. Therefore, the family has made the following punishment decision: The Usami family located on Biwa Island has its seal reduced to fifty-machi steps and transferred to Kawanaka.  The 110-machi steps of Yashiro Castle on the island are effective immediately. The transfer must be completed within one month. The Biwa Island territory will be taken over by Nagao Yashichiro Keimichi.  " "Why do we need to reduce our seal?  Still want to transfer it?  Why!  "Usami Katsuyuki suddenly jumped up like crazy and rushed towards Kira Yoshitoki. Before he could run a few steps, he was kicked by the highly alert Takigawa Tokiyuki. He flew two or three meters backwards and fell to the ground.  The person at the door wailed in pain, ¡°Jiro!  "Usami Sadakatsu hurriedly ran over to help up his injured brother. This powerful and heavy kick hit the lower abdomen. With Takigawa Keijiro's height of 1.8 meters, the kick hit a small man of only 1.55 meters. Think about it.  It was terrifying. This stubborn guy stood up in pain, holding his stomach, and seemed to want to rush over. "Jiro, that's enough!"  Get out of here, old man!  Get out now!  "Usami Sada was very angry.He scolded his second son to get out of Oguangma, because he had noticed that Kira Yoshi's face immediately darkened when his second son rushed over.  "Please Suruga, please be ready!" Kira Yoshitoki obviously had no intention of continuing to speak, so he hurriedly explained a few words before standing up and leaving.  Usami Sadamitsu hurriedly followed him out of Ohiroma and asked sincerely: "Excuse me, Jinfu-den. I wonder if I can participate in Shinano's actions. I really want to cooperate with Jinfu-den! After all, I still have military skills.  It's useful, please understand the mood of an old samurai!" "Isn't Suruga going to make a meritorious service?" Kira Yoshitsune stopped and turned around and said to Usami Sadamitsu: "I transferred the Usami family there just to give it to you.  It's up to you whether you can seize this opportunity for Suruga to do something good." "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Zhenfu! Thank you very much!" Usami Sadamitsu bowed down and watched Kira Yoshiki and the others go away.  Looking at the disappearing figure, his father was still kneeling down and looking into the distance. Usami Sadakatsu said angrily: "Father! Why don't you feel sad at all about the reduction or transfer of titles?  Biwa Island is the territory that my Usami family has worked hard for for generations!" "Ignorance!" Usami Sadaman came back to his senses, stood up slowly, glanced at his eldest son coldly, and said with a sigh: "  I must keep an eye on Katsuyuki. If I hear that he is wandering outside, I will not come back to this house again! This time, Zhenfudian is magnanimous and careless, which is unexpectedly kind. I, the Usami family, cannot afford to gamble.  Once, do you understand?" Usami Sadaman was about to leave. His eldest son stood up and hurriedly asked: "Father! You haven't answered my question yet! Why should we bear this criticism in such a humble manner?  ? Our Usami family is not rebellious at all, why should we reduce the seal or transfer the seal" "Shut up!" "Father!" Usami Sadakatsu was stunned by the roar.  "Use your brain more and think about why I am running up and down to fawn over the palace! From now on, don't go to your brother-in-law's houseI have forgotten, and I am about to forward a letter!" Usami Sadamitsu Mitsukoshi  Seeing his stupid son, he became angrier and couldn't help but cursed: "Your useless brother-in-law doesn't have such a look. He can only serve as a policeman in the formation with the lord, and he will live there without any military merits or rewards in his life.  Does he think I don¡¯t know about his little tricks? He still wants to climb up close to the master. How high can he climb? Is it as high as Saito Asanobu? Or is he just daydreaming?  "Father, how did you know this?" Usami Dingsheng couldn't help but take two steps back. He always thought that secretly interacting with his brother-in-law Qian Saka Keiqin was a very secret thing, but Usami Dingsheng was full of it.  After drinking, embarrassment and fear made him even more afraid to look at the old man.  "You're useless! Why did I give birth to two useless children like you! I'm so angry!" Usami waved his sleeves, turned around and left angrily.  Usami Sadauchi hesitated for a moment, but still felt that it was more important to find out how to reduce his family's seal, so he pursued him relentlessly and shouted: "Father, you haven't answered the question yet!" "You! Hey!" Usami Sadamitsu seemed to  I have no choice but to sigh and say: "You're stupid! How did you get the knowledge of the land? Without merit, my Usami family will be marginalized sooner or later. Aren't you jealous of the Kakizaki Kei family's territory of more than 400 bu? Zhenfudian reduced  I had already expected the sealing of the Usami family, but I never thought of transferring the seal to Kawanakajima. It can be seen that Wuweidian still wants to use the Usami family. Otherwise, what do you think our family has the ability to resist even if the sealing is changed?  How to resist? ""Gongcheng" "You know Gongcheng, is your military strength better than that of Hojo Castle? Is your military strength better than ours?  Can't compare! Hojo Takahiro was forced to surrender, how can we capture the city?" Usami Sadamitsu lamented that he was so unlucky to have two sons, one more stupid than the other.  "Then why are we still rebelling?" Usami Sadakatsu felt even more confused.  "Hojo Takahiro can go from rebellion to surrender and become a direct minister of the Kira family. Why can't our Usami family do the same? I don't have the capital of the Hojo family, but as long as I invite the town hall or the lord to Biwajima Castle, I am sure to achieve my goal! If the town house  If I come here in person, I will have to reduce the seal of some land as punishment. But with Zhenfu Palace¡¯s temperament, I will not lose my Usami family in vain. I have been operating in China and Vietnam for decades, and the network of relationships is complicated and deep-rooted. It is not a joke!  The lord came here, and even the title reduction was not exempted, but the follow-up strategy failed to work. I focused on the ambition of the Zhenfu Palace, not the lord's conservative behavior and self-worth! " "What does my value expression mean?  " "Probably, it should be that's what happened" Usami Sadaman yelled angrily: "This is a new word invented by Zhenfudian. If you ask me, who should I ask?  "(To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
