    Asakura Yoshikage felt deeply humiliated and angry. The old people of the Shodai family answered each other with each other, which made him deeply feel that being a powerful daimyo in Kinki also had so many helplessness. In the past, no one dared to do anything to him.  When talking about how the Asakura family is not good in front of me, what I always hear in my ears is how powerful the Asakura family is.  The people who accompany him all year round often praise the greatness of the Asakura family in front of him. The most common mention is how powerful the Asakura family's political influence is in the Kinai and how far-reaching its economic influence is on Hokuriku.  The Tsuruga Port of Echizen Province can easily choke the Kira family's maritime trade lifeline, so the Asakura family is the least afraid of the Kira family of all samurai families in the Kinai. It only takes a slight threat to force the Kira family to surrender.  But everything he heard and saw now told him deeply that what he heard and saw before seemed to be illusions. The Asakura family was facing many crises from inside to outside.  The local Echizen Ichiku needs to be eradicated, and the external Kaga Ichiku, the Echigo Kira family and the Wakasa Takeda family need to be dealt with.  The family development strategy is inconsistent with his will for revenge. The topic that the family members and the people of the country have been debating is how to retaliate against Kaga. Should they start a civil war and give him a beating, or should they  Launching an all-out war dealt a severe blow to Kaga's arrogance.  Just when Asakura Yoshikage was hesitating, his father-in-law Anatani Tsutomo suddenly cried: "What do you mean by this? My poor daughter died in the hands of a traitor who has always been a traitor. She was  My daughter from the Ashikaga family! Didn¡¯t Kingo-den love her the most? Did he let my poor daughter die in vain?¡± Asakura Yoshikage immediately thought of the woman he had loved for many years.  Originally, he had prepared to make the young prime minister his wife.  Reluctantly, Ajiu Ji suddenly appeared, whose appearance and temper were much different.  He could only comfort his beloved woman and wait patiently.  But I don't think that this wait will be the chance for heaven and man to never meet again.  Thinking of the tragic situation when the young prime minister died, the anger that had been suppressed in Asakura Yoshikage's chest rose up again, and he shouted angrily: "The traitor of Kaga Ichimu clan killed our beloved young prime minister! Our family will never tolerate the murderer.  Get away with it! We must take revenge on Kagami, and we must give him a good look!" The foreigners didn't show much expression, but the family members were slightly unhappy. It was obvious that two wives died and one of them was pregnant.  Mrs. Asai is pregnant, but Asakura Yoshikage only has the prime minister in his eyes. If Asai Nagamasa finds out, his sister will be so worthless.  It will definitely cause unnecessary diplomatic disputes.  Asakura Tosa Mamoru Kageyuki, the lord of Kitanojo Castle, tactfully persuaded: "I deeply feel your lord's mood. The death of Mrs. Asai while pregnant with your highness's child in Sanrihama is really a huge disaster. Why not take this opportunity to formally inform Kotani?"  I want the Asai family to know that the Asakura family is determined to take revenge." Asakura Yoshikage knew that this was brother Yu's tactful persuasion not to be emotional, but his heart seemed to have been taken away with the death of the young prime minister.  He didn't have the heart to think about more alternatives, and waved his hands and said: " Let's do it like this! I'm tired too. You can discuss it later and come up with a statement from Ishimi Shou and hand it over to my family. The rest of the evaluation meeting will be left to you.  "Your Majesty!" "My lord, I send you my best regards." The warriors bowed and saluted quickly, and Tsutomo Kuratani, who had a very special status and was independent from the Asakura family system, also resigned because of his sadness.  The eyes of many people in the queue fell on the proud Yoshikiyo Fukuoka, but there was a certain amount of contempt and vague malice in these eyes.  Watching Asakura Yoshikage leave.  Fukuoka Yoshiki couldn't wait to sit up straight, coughed and reminded: "You must understand what my lord means! The hatred between Mrs. Asai and Mrs. Angu must be avenged, and my brother-in-law cannot just do this.  He died in vain, so we must beat the Kaga Ichiku clan, and beat him hard. Please tell me how to beat him!" Fukuoka Yoshikiyo's transgressive behavior attracted the attention of the Niuchi clan and many elders of the clan.  Unhappily, the result was that no one answered for nearly a quarter of an hour after he finished speaking. They either pretended to be thinking about the problem or looked like they were wandering, clearly looking down on him, the leader of the low-status players.  The other members of the Souvenirs, who have been living in Ijogani Castle for more than ten years, play with Asakura Yoshikage every day, and try their best to make fools of themselves to make the governor happy. How do they know anything about military and state affairs, and can they search their memories to come up with a few decent words?  Or they heard some words from Asakura Yoshikage's gossip. It is unrealistic for them to come up with effective ways to deal with Kaga. If they really had this ability, they might have sent Asakura Yoshikage to take charge.  The military generation has gone.  Those who are incompetent want to say something but don¡¯t know how to say it, and those who are capable deliberately pretend to be dumb and don¡¯t say anything. Anyway, they just look down on you.Sir, this has angered Fukuoka Yoshikiyo and said angrily: "If you guys don't have anything to say, then don't blame me, Yoshikiyo, for reporting the truth truthfully, and saying that you guys are not doing things well and can't come up with strong arguments to deal with Kaga."  I¡¯ve always been embarrassed" "My eyes are clumsy, I wonder who Ishimi Shou was talking to while he was talking to himself for a long time?" Uozumi Jinggu narrowed his eyes and mocked coldly: "My lord just mentioned that Ishimi Shou would pass the discussion on.  Didn't the previous statement ever say that Ishimi Mamoru would preside over the evaluation meeting? Is Ishimi Mamoru's frivolous behavior despising the many descendants of the Asakura family?" Fukuoka Yoshikiyo was furious: "You  Bloody man! You are slandering me! I will sue you in front of my lord!¡±  In a tit-for-tat confrontation, he was able to have this confidence because many people in the gendai family clan were supporting him. The chief gendai family member, Lao Yamazaki Yoshiie, as well as Yumi Yukitada, Kawai Yoshito and others were all supporting him.  Yuzhu Jinggu made it clear that he would not let him go down the steps, and he wanted to be slapped naked in the face, which made the scene more and more embarrassing. Qianbo Jingding quickly stepped forward to be the peacemaker: "Your Highnesses, please calm down for the time being. Since we agree with each other,  As a loyal minister of my Asakura family, I serve my lord with the same palace, so why should I get into trouble because of some misunderstandings? Let¡¯s discuss how to deal with Kaga¡¯s always-kei problem. "Maeami Kagesada can at least give the two of them a try!  To persuade peace.  To be more precise, it was Yoshikiyo Fukuoka who took the lead in subduing the situation and pretending to be generous and not caring about it.  It wasn't because he was very informal or moved by Qianbo Jingding's rhetoric.  Rather, it was because he had discovered that the most powerful members of the Asakura family, as well as the family ministers and foreigners with extraordinary strength, none of them came to speak for him, which made him realize that the members of the family did not have much to rely on except the family governor.  capital.  Several family members said a few words in a nonchalant manner and suggested that they have lunch first before continuing the discussion. Fukuoka Yoshikiyo also agreed to calm down the atmosphere. In private, Fukuoka Yoshikiyo went to Ono County Prince Asakura Kaikaku.  He promised to keep him a powerful military general who had always conquered Kaga this time, in exchange for the strong support of this powerful retainer.  Asakura Jingjing agreed with a smile.  In his heart, he despised Fukuoka Yoshikiyo even more. After watching him leave, he secretly smiled and said: "Asakura's family actually breeds such a sycophant who is obsessed with gaining power. I wonder if the ancestor Takaage knew that he had such a useless thing.  My true son, how will you feel when you promote so many loser retainers?" He would accept the olive branch offered by Fukuoka Yoshiki without hesitation, but Asakura Keijing didn't have much family in his heart.  Worried about the world, he hated everything about the Asakura family from the bottom of his heart, including his clan and the family governor, Asakura Yoshikage. His childhood was spent in the planning of his ambitious father, Asakura Kagetaka.  Since he was a child, he has witnessed too many conspiracies, conspiracies, and ruthless betrayals, which made his early education lack moral values ??and the necessary sense of right and wrong.  Just when he was about to come of age, Asakura Ketaka failed in his rebellion and fled to Kyoto, and was subsequently exiled twice and completely expelled from the Asakura family.  From then on, his life was filled with ridicule, ridicule and contempt, which filled his heart with endless hatred. He hated his father, his brothers, his family members, everything in the Asakura family, and even himself.  According to the normal life trajectory, maybe he will follow his father's old path with this hatred, and then die under the sword of a certain samurai as a highlight of his military exploits, but all of this is due to Asakura Yoshikage.  In the hands of the clever house governor, Asakura Yoshikage wanted to check and balance the overly powerful Tsuruga County Sheriff. He remembered that Ono County Sheriff still had a remnant like him, so he promoted him to regain the lost military power of Ono County.  And then become a confidant.  In his opinion, maybe Asakura Yoshikage is still dreaming about the kindness of knowing him, and imagining that Asakura Yoshikage will regard this arm stretched out from Takamagahara as the great benefactor who saved him from hell, so  As if Ron had recreated his life, he would be moved to die for him, but Asakura Yoshikage had never thought of that. He would only be more excited and watch Asakura Yoshikage make stupid mistakes one after another.  , and doesn't mind making trouble to make this idiot even stupider.  The evaluation meeting was held again in the afternoon. Fukuoka Yoshikiyo and the presenters were much more honest. Yamazaki Yoshiie served as the temporary host of the evaluation meeting and convened the retainers and people to discuss countermeasures. Several people from the country also spoke enthusiastically, making the atmosphere very lively.  This made Fukuoka Yoshikiyo feel very embarrassed. Thinking about the scene of silence in the morning, his resentment towards these members of the group grew even more.  Perhaps he was a little too excited, Yin Mu Jingzhong suddenly said: "We should not have so hastily torn up the covenant with the Kira family in the first place. If we did not pierce the layer of paper, we would not be in such an embarrassing situation.  At least we can suppress Wakasa Country safely and leave Kaga Ichikui to the Kira family to deal with, and the young prime minister will not die in vain in Sanrihama"Yin Mu, be careful what you say!"  Don¡¯t forget that we are allies with the two anti-Kira families!  "Yin Mu Jingzhong also realized that he was a little too careless. He rubbed his head and apologized sheepishly: "It's because of Meng Lang!  "Actually, what I mean is" "It means that it is more cost-effective to kiss Kira than Miyoshi, right?"  In the past few years, Yin Mudian has served me as an official of the Asakura family, and he has realized the truth of getting close to the stronger side!  "Takahashi Jingye, a member of the memorial group, seized this opportunity to cynicize, and Yin Mu Jingzhong became angry. A good evaluation will turn into another noisy market. The last few important ministers and elders have always decided that the evaluation meeting will end here and be held another day.  After discussing the crusade clauses handed over to the family governor, Asakura Kageki warned everyone in front of a family until the presenters and the countrymen left one after another: "My father has been dealing with Kaga Ichikui all his life. As my father's  The inheritor, Jing Ji, supports Dajiaga and has always supported it!  "But please don't forget that the original alliance with the Kira family to share Kaga country has been broken. It's really hard to say whether the Kira family will fight to the end with us.  In the end, if the Kira family picks peaches again, they will lose all their money.  We must also be careful of the Kira family using any evil means to secretly encourage the Sanrihama riots.  Don't let me, the Asakura family, be the pawn they fool.  " Asakura Kageki's words aroused bad thoughts in many people. It must be admitted that the Kira family used their ability and definitely had the intention to promote this assassination. From the surface, it can be seen that this Sanrihama riot is completely different from what Kaga has always done.  This behavior, especially combined with the misdeeds of Kagami Ichikaku who once cooperated with the Takeda family to launch the Kasugayama riot, further proves that the Kira family is involved in this riot. Kaga Ichikaku is a group of monks whose minds are full of madness and violence.  They regard the rules and regulations as correct and can kill people and set fires with swords. They dare to drink wine and eat meat in Buddhist temples. They even dare to hide their filth in the temple, marry and have children. This group of flower monks dare to think and do anything, except for the unexpected.  The only thing he dared not do was to blaspheme the gods and Buddhas. Kira Yoshito had a very good image in the Kinai. He abided by business rules, respected cultural people, respected the religious freedom in the Kinai, respected the imperial court and the shogunate, and abided by the laws and regulations to treat everyone from the ministers to the lowest.  There is no discrimination against the common people, and he is the only warrior who is willing to pay high pensions to the soldiers who died in the war. Generally speaking, his image is perfect, and his popularity and reputation in the ki are very good, but it is not enough to cover up that he is good at conspiracy.  The characteristics of his methods are sinister and vicious. Thinking back on how many Wu families have died or even been exterminated in his hands over the years, the imperial court and the shogunate can be deceived by his sweet words, and the people of Li are deceived by his propaganda, but the powerful Wu family names are not.  They will not be fooled by his illusion. They know very well what a terrible opponent the Kira family is. It is naive to think that the Kira family did not intervene. They must know that Kira Yoshiki can defeat the powerful Takeda Shingen and Hojo by various means.  Ujiyasu's military strength was not entirely due to his strong warriors and proficient warriors. Without his superb intelligence and ruthless tactics, it would have been impossible for the Asakura family to rise to the rank of daimyo of the Five Kingdoms in just a few years.  It took decades for Echizen to become a country. Asakura Kage's parents were the original members of the Asakura family who experienced the founding period of the Asakura family. They definitely know better than anyone the difficulties of starting a business, so Asakura Kage is more afraid of it than anyone else.  The Kira family is the mastermind behind this. Compared with the trump card that the Asakura family has against Kira, the Kira family has more trump cards that can easily deal with the Asakura family. "This time the Sanrihama commotion is caused by the Kira family.  A stern warning?  No!  There is no doubt that the lord was almost assassinated so to speak!  The Kira family may be hoping that if they are lucky, they will kill their master and plunge my Asakura family into civil strife. If they are not lucky, they will scare us away from taking any rash actions and warn us that they have enough means to deal with my Asakura family?  This is a bit too" Yamazaki Yoshie's words stopped abruptly in the middle of his words, but the samurai here all understood what kind of modal particles he should use to express his surprise in his unfinished words. It seemed that  This inference is the one that is most likely to be close to the truth. The Kira family is very likely to be involved in this commotion, but they are unable to catch the Kira family. Even if they have thousands of suspicions, they can only target this man behind the scenes.  Staring. The only thing to blame is that when the commotion happened, the Asakura family samurai was too impatient and chopped the assassins clean. Without evidence, it was a false accusation. Just Kira.  The family might also be able to use some tricks to deal with the Asakura family. Thinking about this possibility made many samurai feel cold in their hearts. Asakura Jingjing looked at him with some surprise, always being unknown and transparent, with hair in his fifties.  The grizzled Asakura Kageki never thought that this guy who had always looked down on him could think so deeply about the inside story, many of which were his own.Unexpectedly, he realized that he seemed to have underestimated the strength of this powerful enemy.  The evaluation meeting ended with a warning from Asakura Kageki. Within a few days, the public came up with a detailed plan to attack Kaga Ichiku. The attack was limited to Echizen Sakai County and Ono County.  In the name of revenge, Echizen has always been clinging to power. In the name of revenge, he summoned 20,000 troops to launch an attack on Echizen Yoshizaki Gobo, striving to completely remove this nail that had been buried in Echizen for decades.  Generally speaking, it was a copy of the old routine that had been used to attack Echizen for decades, but under different names, it was still a step-by-step offensive plan that lacked new ideas. Fukuoka Yoshiki took this offensive plan and poured out his bitterness in front of Asakura Yoshikage.  He also did not forget to ridicule the plan put forward by Pu Daizhong, trying to use this method to influence Asakura Yoshikage's judgment.  It's a pity that the house governor was mourning because of his wife's untimely death. He was stunned for a long time while holding the bronze mirror and didn't speak at all. He didn't hear his sincere and slanderous words. In the end, he just signed the monogram and dismissed him.  This made Fukuoka Yoshikiyo very disappointed with the governor's statement.  The rhetoric that he had been preparing for so long failed to impress Asakura Yoshikage, forcing him to come up with his trump card: "Please tell me, Lord, who will be the general general in the crusade against the Echizen Ichikage clan this time? Should Asakura Shiki be appointed?"  "How can Asakura Keikag be appointed as the general?" Fukuoka Yoshiki asked patiently twice before calling Asakura Yoshikage out of his distraction.  Shouldn't he be appointed as the general? Asakura Kagetaka should be appointed as the general I think of it, making Asakura Kagetaka the general is too much. Now is the time to appoint Asakura Keika as the general.  "He!" "But what should I say to Jing Jidian? Jing Jidian is a strong candidate for recommending his legitimate son Jing Yu as the general" Asakura Yoshikage waved his hand impatiently to this man who followed him.  A minister who has been close to me for more than ten years scolded: "What a waste of time! Just do whatever my family arranges! If there is a problem, just ask your uncle to come to my family!" "Ha!" Fukuoka Yoshikiyo quietly took a few steps back and turned around to leave.  He showed a smug smile from an angle that was invisible to the scene. The first thing he did after leaving the castle tower was not to draw up an edict with a pen, but to quickly return to Shikiya to write down what he had just seen and send it to his promising ally Asakura Keijing.  .  The humiliation left to him at that evaluation meeting made him deeply realize the truth. As a close minister beside the family governor, if he does not have strong support from external allies, he can only be a little man who pretends to be powerful and is humiliated at the evaluation meeting.  At that time, there was no powerful warrior to speak for him, which was really irritating to him.  "That's why I need your support even more! Asakura Kagekyo!" Fukuoka Yoshikiyo muttered happily while writing: "We are allies. With my support, you can secure your position as general, and you will be defeated in the future.  Tsurugazu also wants me to help you, so you must remember the good things about me, Yoshikiyo!" In this strange atmosphere, the Asakura family decided to go out to conquer Echizen in August. In just one month,  20,000 elite warriors of Echizen gathered outside Ichijodani Castle in Yueli. When Asakura Yoshikage stood on the castle tower and saw the 20,000 brave tiger troops, shouting the slogan of crusade in unison, he suddenly felt in his heart  Extraordinarily down-to-earth.  "Sure enough, only a strong samurai group can defend the majesty of our Asakura family, and it is the foundation for maintaining our family's dominance of the Hokuriku. Only they can fight against the evildoers for our family!" Asakura Yoshikage said deeply.  He realized that the strength of the Asakura family was based on the powerful clan, the loyal family elders and the 20,000 samurai ashigaru who were loyal to him.  In the past, the confidants who he liked very much were just decorations of his power. They could not change the Asakura family's extreme dependence on one retainer. Asakura Yoshikage secretly thought: "Power! What a terrible thing! It  It allows me to mobilize 20,000 troops to take revenge with just a word It is also the power that allows me to meet and lose the young prime minister. Power is really what the evil spirits of hell left behind!" "Twenty thousand tigers held a battle!  A simple swearing-in ceremony was held and the journey began. Their goal was the important town of Echizen Ichikui on the border of Echizen Province. The primary target this time was Yoshizaki Gobo, the base camp of Echizen Ichikui. As long as they could successfully eradicate the main force of Echizen Ichikui in Sakai County  , there is no need to worry about what kind of trouble Echizen Ichikui may cause elsewhere.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
