    Knowing that Asakura Yoshikage was far from being as powerful as he had shown, Kira Yoshikoshi instantly felt at ease. Although he vaguely remembered that Asakura Yoshikage was not a wise master, he never thought that this person's political level was actually  It is so inferior that it can probably be compared with the playboy Ichijo Kanesada of Tosa Ichijo family.  In fact, the situation of the Echizen Asakura clan is very complicated. Just like many families, they are faced with the dilemma of being forced to join the weak. During the Onin Rebellion, Asakura Toshikage dared to go to the shogunate with a piece of paper from the shogunate to appoint Echizen as a guardian.  Echizen Kingdom defeated the guardian Dai Kai Toshimitsu to seize the power of the kingdom, and several of his brothers used a lot of effort.  Asakura Toshikage then set up his base at Ichijodani Castle, and became an ally with Renyo Honganji, the eighth head of the Ichiko clan who fled Kyoto to Echizen and established Yoshizaki Gobo, and formulated the "Seventeen Articles of Asakura Toshikage" to establish the court.  Later, in order to strengthen the influence of the Echizen counties, he sent his younger brother Asakura Toge Mori Kefuji to serve as the Tsuruga County Secretary.  They also recruited another brother, Jishiin Mitsuku, who had become a monk, to return to secular life and become Asakura Mitsuru as the Ono County Sheriff. At the same time, Asakura Shimono Morikakei served as the Ashuba County Sheriff. These three families are different from the ordinary sects of Asakura.  They are called the sect of the same name, and the most powerful Tsuruga-gunji and Ono-gunji are also called the Niuchi sect.  However, the two clans have never been very stable. First, after the death of the first generation Tsuruga County Sheriff Asakura Kagefuji, his legitimate son Asakura Kagetoyo, who became the second generation Tsuruga County Sheriff, attempted to rebel. However, he found his brother-in-law and Asakura Toshikage's son.  Asakura Sodechi discussed the rebellion, but Asakura Sodechi reported it to his nephew the day before the incident, and Asakura Sadakecho, who was the governor of the family at the time, gained great credit.  Asakura Sotetsu also used this opportunity to obtain the position of Tsuruga County Secretary.  As the God of the Northern Army gradually became known, the governors of the Asakura family were short-lived one after another.  Gradually, the Niinaizhong gained independent control over the collection of taxes within the county and the general recruitment of military service. At the same time, they also gained the most important exclusive power of judicial review within the territory. It was almost a replica of the Takeda Ryoyama and Maori Ryokan systems.  A great general with the same name runs his own kingdom within a kingdom.  But even so, Asakura Yoshikage still played tricks to trick his uncle. I don¡¯t know how his head is structured. In comparison, Hatakeyama Takamasa is a good samurai with normal IQ and very brave. If I insist on saying that Asakura Yoshikage  What are the advantages of Jing? Probably he is proficient in Kyoto culture and good at Waka tea ceremony.  It also has the advantage of building Ichijodani Castle Town into the "Second Kyoto".  When he saw the governor of the house, Kiragi, he was completely relaxed. Namioka Totobo smiled slightly and said: "Actually, this Asakura Kingoden has also done a great thing, that is, he has made an excuse for the two families of Ichijodani Shibo and Ichijodani.  Power, the last time I went to Kaga to visit the Uesugi Danshoden, His Highness Asakura Gentosuke Kageren, he is the current governor of the Etchu Mori family in Ichijodani, and his status in the Asakura family is about the same as that of Hosokawa H¨­bu-den.  . This Asakura Gento assistant Kageren and another two-level assistant Aikage Yori who served as Asakura's sweeping department, as well as Uozumi Bingo Mori Kagegu, Kawai An Yun Mori Yoshito, and Maeha Toemon who were appointed by Ichijo Tanishi.  Kageding, Koizumi Tozaemon Nagatoshi jointly assist Asakura Yoshikage. These six people are also called Ichijoya Rokugo, and they basically monopolize the large and small government affairs of the Asakura family. Perhaps the six of them are more powerful.  It was an eyesore, so he promoted a few smart people from the nearby favored ministers to set up an organization of zuzhezhong, and ordered Yicheng Guliu to carry out daily affairs.  , At the same time, when it comes to handling issues such as judicial review of land disputes, Ichijogani Roku must also follow the opinions of the public, which is equivalent to completely ignoring these six powerful warriors. " Asakura Yoshikage's original intention may be to take back the original intention.  It belongs to the arbitrariness of the family governor, but he ignores a huge problem, that is, the Yichenggu Liufeng clan is not just a few powerless ministers. They have their own territory and a large number of family members, as well as for them.  A large number of people who served were imprisoned.  Asakura Yoshikage's doing this is tantamount to starting a war between the clan and the family at the same time. As the saying goes, if you often walk by the river, your shoes will not get wet.  If he keeps playing like this, he will wait for the day when he will play with fire.  Hearing the strange expressions of many Echigo samurai, they couldn't understand the Asakura family's mentality of sitting on the fire pit and dreaming of life and death. Logically speaking, why would there be such a big difference between the neighboring countries of Hokurikudo? Kurokawa Kiyomizu  He sighed: "So the Asakura family is in more danger from internal and external troubles than us? But Asakura Yoshikage is still living a luxurious life as before. It is really a miracle that he can safely sit on the position of family governor.  "Yeah!" Naoe Keizuna shook his head and said he didn't understand the Asakura family's thoughts. Logically speaking, the samurai of the Asakura family should have risen up to overthrow the family governor. Even if the family governor is not wrong, they can depose them as long as they are dissatisfied.  For example, the Koji Rebellion that just ended in the Noto Hatakeyama family was caused by the clan's desire to forcibly abolish the family governor.  Saito Asanobu suddenly grinned and said: "Who knows what the Asakura family thinks, orMaybe they would think that the family governor is working hard to revitalize the family business!  Perhaps Asakura Yoshikage thought that the Asakura family was getting stronger and stronger under his governance. Look back and see if the Tsujiangetsu Three Kingdoms Alliance reflected Asakura Yoshikage's strong self-confidence?  " "Hahaha yes, yes!  "The young samurai ignored the opinions of the middle-aged people and burst into laughter. Seeing everyone's mood slowly regaining their former self-confidence as they analyzed each item, Kira Yoshitoki's face also showed a faint smile.  He, as a governor, cannot always show his worries and worries on his face, otherwise it will appear that the governor is immature and can easily make the family members think wildly. It is precisely because of the pressure that he has to bear alone that he is extremely sensitive to the events in Kinki.  Everything has changed now. Knowing Asakura Yoshikage's nature and ability, it is much easier to turn around and plan strategies. Kira Yoshitoki supported his chin with one hand and soon fell into deep thought, and time passed by.  , many genealogical retainers in the evaluation room whispered about the feasibility of the strategy. Namioka Sobo and Honda Tokimasa were also deep in thought. Judging from their expressions, they probably had come up with a feasible method, but they were just stuck on some  There was no way to move on the level. A young man sitting very close to the front suddenly bowed and spoke. This person was Yoshiko Kira, one of the new members of the clan. In the past few months, he had been hiding in the crowd.  Li had been observing the expressions of the Pu Dai people from side to side, until he saw that many Pu Dais were deep in thought before he suddenly said: "I have a plan that I don't know whether to tell or not.  "    "oh?  Yoshimitsu, please speak!  "Kirara Yoshimitsu suddenly became interested, secretly thinking that this kid couldn't help but show up after enduring most of the winter, and couldn't help but look forward to his performance in his first speech. " Mogami Yoshimitsu found hundreds of people in the entire evaluation room.  Looking at him, he was suddenly nervous and confused. Yamamoto Tokiyuki gave him a friendly smile, as if to say that he didn't need to be nervous to speak out boldly. Seeing this look that he had never seen before but very warm, the boy  The person suddenly felt not nervous at all, took a deep breath and said: "This plan is a bit difficult to talk aboutbecause it requires killing people!  " Kira Yoshishi knew that the young man might not have killed anyone before. He had a slight mental hysteria that he had not overcome, so he comforted him in a gentle voice: "What we samurai do is killing people. We either kill people with tachi or come up with strategies to kill people.  Or do something that will help samurai kill people quickly. It is much easier to come up with a strategy to kill people than to come up with a strategy not to kill people. Yoshimitsu can feel free to tell you what the strategy is!  " Mogami Yoshimitsu took a deep breath and said loudly: "Your Majesty just heard the explanation and analysis of several highnesses.  It can be concluded that Asakura Kingoden is a family governor who lives a luxurious life and likes to enjoy himself. He instigates an independent family just to show that his civil and martial arts are not inferior to those of his ancestors. For governance, he relies more on the transmission of the people and his trusted ministers.  , then we only need a few ninjas to sneak into Ichijogani Castle, assassinate the players, and spread some rumors of assassinations by the same name, which will plunge the Asakura family into chaos.  "Then he bribed the Asakura family's maid to poison Asakura Yoshikage's concubine, the young Prime Minister Anaya, and spread rumors that Kaga Ichikumune took advantage of the chaos to kill him.  This Kingoden will definitely fall into a crazy situation. At that time, the Asakura family will definitely abandon the agreement made by the Three Kingdoms Alliance to attack the Rokkaku family and intercept the Ashikaga family, and launch the Echizen Ichiku with all their strength to avenge the blood sea. This crazy  The governor of the family lost his cronies one after another and became extremely suspicious of people with the same name. It is certain that the Asakura family will not be able to live in peace in the future.  " "Hiss!  What a vicious plan!  What a powerful scheming!  "Honda Tokimasa almost screamed out. Fortunately, he still had a sense of vigilance and swallowed the words that came to his lips. Mogami Yoshimitsu's plan not only surprised Honda Tokimasa.  . Even Yamamoto Tokiyuki, Namio Sofou, Hosokawa Fujitaka, Shima Tokikatsu, and Nagano Yamasa all showed surprise and suspicion. Those who were slightly less intelligent gave him a ghostly look.  Kawaki Masu grinned for a long time and didn't close his mouth. He really didn't understand how this half-grown child could come up with such a cruel and vicious plan. Nagano Yaguru, who was sitting in the back seat of the Ohiro room, also had a serious look on his face, and Kohata  Nobuzhen rubbed his stiff expression and tried to wipe away the frightened expression. He Tianyeshi's expression was similar to that of Xiaobata Nozhen, and said with an unnatural look: "This plan is too cruel!  It's like driving the Asakura family to a dead end. This is really a plan thought up by a fifteen-year-old peer But why can't I come up with such a powerful plan?  " Kobata Nobuzada curled his lips and said: "In addition to eating and sleeping, you only play hawk hunting and dog chasing animals. You are definitely better than Yamagata Temple in killing people, but what about the strategy?  It¡¯s better to wait until you are reincarnated in your next life before trying again!  " Wada Yefan looked at him in surprise, and suddenly grinned: "Huh?  I can¡¯t tell that you are so quick to talk. If you don¡¯t accept it, we¡¯ll go out and compete.?Competition?  "    "OK!  I, Xinzhen, am not afraid of you!  " "Stop making trouble!  Nagano Yegu interrupted their low-pitched play and hesitated for a moment before sighing: "His Royal Highness, Dr. Mogami Ukyo, will definitely become a great man in the future" Several young samurai came over and said disapprovingly.  : "With just this one trick, you become a big shot?  I think there¡¯s still a lot to be desired!  " Nagano Yegu waved his finger and pointed at the ruler in the distance, and said in a low voice: "If you don't believe it, you can tell by looking at His Highness's expression.  " At this moment, experiencing the baptism of initial surprise, Kira Yoshitoki's face showed a strange smile. This smile was mixed with three parts surprise, two parts inquiry and five parts relief. The smile with complex expressions made Mogami Yoshimitsu momentarily  He couldn't understand, and he felt extremely nervous as if he were beating a drum. After all, this was the first time he had made suggestions for the Ashikaga family, and he had no idea of ??the specific results. Kira Yoshi did not let him continue to be nervous.  During the preparation time, he just sighed softly and clapped his hands and praised: "Yoshimitsu's plan is really good!  But Yu's thinking was restricted by ancient behavioral habits.  I never thought about using such a powerful strategy to deal with the Asakura family. This strategy inspired me greatly. If Yoshimitsu uses this strategy to defeat the Asakura family in the future, I will grant you the title of success in setting the strategy.  " The big stone in Mogami Yoshimitsu's heart was lifted, and he hurriedly leaned over to thank him for the compliment. Namioka Tatefang shook his feather fan and said: "His Majesty Kyozo's plan was far beyond my Tatefang's expectation. If you follow this  The plan can indeed easily consume the Asakura family's own strength, but there is another detail below that can contribute to Jingzhaodian's plan When the players and the young prime minister Angu died, Ichijogani City fell into chaos.  .  Recruiting the followers of Ichijoya Roku, and at the same time deceiving the Tsuruga people into believing some rumors that were very unfavorable to the Tsuruga governor. For example, the Asakura Kingo Palace was preparing to conquer the Kaga Ichikou clan, but the general was handed over to Ohno.  Everyone is watching Chaocang Jingjing, I believe Chaocang Jingyu will definitely be unable to sit still.  This news then passed through Ichijoya Roku's followers, turning this rumor into Tsuruga County Sheriff's preparations to forcibly regain the lost position of general, and Asakura Yoshikage will definitely veto Asakura Kage without hesitation.  request.  He was even punished for his ill-intentioned behavior, causing conflicts among the generals before the war even started, and laying the foundation for the antagonism among the people with the same name. This is the plan of killing two birds with one stone!  " Ji Liangyi was very satisfied and praised: "What a plan!  It¡¯s really hard work in the dining room!  " "I dare not take credit, I am just picking up the pieces and filling in the gaps.  "Namioka Soufang smiled modestly, which made Honda very annoyed. In fact, he also came up with a similar strategy, but before he could complete the details, Namioang Soufang won the prize. If he said it again, he would  It would be considered as a mere imitation, so it would be better not to say anything at all. After a moment of patience, he still didn't want to let Nangang Toutou stand out, so he forced himself to come up with a plan to suppress the situation and said loudly: "Chao.  The chaos in the Kura family is just a prelude. I have a plan that can cause the Wakasa Takeda clan to also be in chaos.  As long as Nakajo Dewa Morden joins the Kira Navy in time to seize Maizuru Port, he can quickly control the entire Wakasa Country and threaten the safety and stability of Tsuruga Port. Asakura Yoshikage will surely recognize the fact by then  , give up your previous decision to oppose me, the Ashikaga family!  " Kira Yoshitoshi waved his hand and said: "Let Tokimasa talk about the situation of the Wakasa Takeda clan!  " "In fact, the Wakasa Takeda clan is more difficult than the Echizen Asakura clan. The current governor of the family, Takeda Yoshitomi, took the position of governor by exiling his father. Because he was unfairly appointed and was a puppet of Asakura, it caused widespread dissatisfaction among the people of Wakasa.  A few years ago, before Takeda Yoshitomi became the governor of the family, he faced a serious problem of being attacked by his uncles.  "Honda Toki was telling the situation of the Wakasa Takeda clan bit by bit. "Compared with Asakura Yoshikage's abnormal thinking, the former governor of the Wakasa Takeda clan, Takeda Nobutoyo, can only be regarded as a dark fool, but at least he will not do anything too weird.  His behavior just happened to coincide with the death of his descendant Rokkaku Sadayori, which made it more difficult for him to fight against the invasion of the Asakura family, and the new backer of Rokkaku Yoshihide was very weak, triggering a round of shopping for relatives in the family between pro Rokkaku and pro Asakura.  Takeda Nobuntoyo did not stand at the forefront. Instead, he pushed his younger brother Takeda Shigenobu to confront the pro-Asakura faction Takeda Yoshitomi. As a result, a family dispute that began in the late Tianwen period slowly began, and Koji II  In 1556, the lord of Kuniyoshi Castle, Echichu Amanaka Katsuhisa, supported Takeda Shigenobu to launch an attack on Takeda Yoshitomi. Unfortunately, Rokkaku Yoshihide and Takeda Nobuntoyo, who supported him later, did not follow up in time, leaving the Asakura family to support them.  Takeda Yoshitomi and his younger brother Takeda Nobukata easily defeated Takeda Shigenobu and Awaya Katsuhisa who were trying to seize power.If Takeda Shigenobu had won the battle, there would still be a balance of power, but this defeat put Takeda Nobuntoyo's status as the family governor in jeopardy.  Two years later, in the first year of Eiroku, Takeda Yoshitomi felt that the time was ripe, so he took the initiative to provoke a war and launched a charge against the family governor, and successfully obtained the head of his uncle Takeda Shigenobu, putting his father Takeda Nobuntoyo at an absolute disadvantage.  Seeing that he was unable to resist, he was forced to flee to Omi Province for refuge with the support of the Rokkaku family.  Takeda Yoshitomi also successfully seized the position of governor of the family, but before he took up his position, he found that the governor's control over Wakasa country was getting weaker and weaker. His younger brother Nobukata Takeda took control of Toshiki County as the military representative, and Wakasa's double-walled ease  Mima Masakune controls the Oioi County in the west, while Awaya Katsuhisa, who suffered a defeat, still firmly controls Mikata County. Wakasa Shuangbi's short dormancy is just sufficient preparation for the next outbreak.  Honda smiled at his father-in-law Numata Mitsukane and continued: "Actually, I also know that Numata Uenosuke has extraordinary connections in Wakasa and Echizen. The former wife was the daughter of Takeda Motomitsu, and the two concubines were separated.  She is the daughter of Mototaka Awaya and the sister of Masazu Isumi of Wakasa Twin Walls. Her other sons-in-law are Uozumi Keigo, one of the Asakura family's Ichijoya 4th Order generals, Maeba Keetsugu, and Nenaki members of the family.  The powerful general Yamazaki Yoshie, these three people can bring serious disaster to the Asakura family as long as they control one of them. In addition, there is the current head of the Wakasa Muto clan, Muto Shunxiu. It is said that this person is of first-class military strategy and intelligence and has been in and out all year round.  Echizen Province is well aware of the wind speed and geography of the first half of Hokuriku. Only the Wakasa Takeda family cannot use such a powerful talent. If this person can be used by our Ashikaga family, Wakasa Province will definitely be able to easily capture it and further threaten Echizen.  Country. "In fact, what Honda Tokimasa said after this is purely talkative. How to arrange the general is a matter for Kira Yoshitoki, but since he mentioned it like this, there must be a reason, especially the key points mentioned are Numata Hikaru and Wakasa.  It is true that the people of the country are numerous, and their children are spread throughout Wakasa Country, Echizen Country and even Kitaomi Country. Such a well-spoken and well-connected samurai is simply a natural messenger.  "Yeah! I probably understand what you mean" Kira Yoshishi caught a glimpse of Numata Mitsukane's excited expression, nodded and said: "Then Numata Uenosuke will serve as the second commander of Wakasa Province, responsible for the deployment of Wakasa Shuangbi and the people in the county.  With many things burdening everyone, Uenosuke's task is to cooperate with the Kira Navy and Nakajo Dewa Mamoru's 3,000 troops to open up the situation as soon as possible, and quickly grasp the territorial defense power of the entire Wakasa Kingdom, so as to reduce unnecessary troubles and welcome back the exile.  Takeda Nobuntoyo can be the governor of the house again! ""This year's rain and snow are particularly intensive. In previous February, the snow will gradually melt and the spring flowers will bloom, but this year there was still a heavy snowstorm until February 20th.  , this heavy rainfall affected most of Honshu Island, and the new spring started with a rainfall in Kinai and snow in Kanto.  Because of the sudden change in Kinai, Kira Yoshitoki had to make the decision to postpone his move south. He could be sure that as long as the Kira family fell into the war in Kanto, Miyoshi Nagakei would definitely launch a strong attack on Omi from behind. This so-called anti-Kira encirclement network and  The invitations extended to the Kai Takeda clan and the Dewa Mutsu clan of the Sagami Hojo clan were also based on this consideration.  Miyoshi Nagakei's purpose was clearer than before. He turned his hostile target from the shogunate in Kyoto to the Kira family, the backstage of the shogunate. Through the Kinai War in the past ten years, he understood a truth, that is, if he does not defeat the supporters behind the shogunate, he will not be able to defeat the shogunate.  There is the possibility of completely dominating the shogunate, and the Kinai Three Kingdoms Alliance also wants to further clarify its strategic goal, which is to defeat the Kira family and the Rokkaku family who supported the shogunate in Omi Province.  Kira Yoshitoki will not allow Miyoshi Nagakei to make plans easily. The first point of attack he chooses is the Echizen Asakura family. The current family governor Asakura Yoshikage is not as strong as imagined, especially for the Kira family's maritime trade.  The control level of Tsuruga Port, which has the greatest impact, is extremely low. This is great news for the Kira family.  That¡¯s why there was an arrangement for Numata Mitsukane to go to Wakasa country alone with an important job. Numata Mitsukane¡¯s first task was to win over his brother-in-law, Yoshimi Masayo, who was twenty years younger than him. Only by winning over Wakasa could he ensure the subsequent  The operation to seize Maizuru Port would not be greatly interfered with by the Tango Isshiki clan.  Yamamoto Tokiyuki will lead the 3,000-strong Vietnamese-Chinese military force and will also set off at the same time. They will take the return ship to Wakasa Province and wait near Maizuru Port. Nakajo Tokihide will rush to Wakasa territory as soon as possible to complete the smooth handover.  After everything was arranged, it was already the time for spring sowing, and the warm feeling of spring once again filled the warm earth.  The spring of the third year of Yonglu came quietly.  (To be continued.
