    One autumn rain and another cold, in the pattering autumn rain, the eleventh year of Eiroku gradually came to an end. At the end of autumn, the temperature dropped sharply and the chill became stronger. Gifu City welcomed a group of guests from Kyoto. Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the second shogunate general  The appointed special envoy was Mitsuhide Akechi, a samurai from the Mino Kingdom.  At this moment, the solemn and spacious rooms of Gifu City were decorated with lights and festoons. Oda Nobunaga personally hosted a banquet in honor of the special envoy of the shogunate, Akechi Mitsuhide. At the banquet, they drank and drank in a pleasant atmosphere. Oda Nobunaga and Akechi Mitsuhide had a relaxed conversation, talking about Kyoto.  Oda Nobunaga's eyes shone with intoxication as he heard about the customs and customs of Nanman missionaries and many new things overseas.  After drinking, the restraint disappeared, and Oda Nobunaga laughed and said: "Akechi Hyuga Mamoru is also a samurai from Mino. He must have had a hard time living abroad for many years! I must walk more when I return to my hometown this time."  Look, the changes in Meinong over the years are amazing!§ ※Yes! I*ve heard for a long time that Shangjujiedian has excellent political methods. I will definitely study hard this time!§ Akechi Mitsuhide said with a warm smile: ※Since the second year of Hongzhi,  Since the death of Dosanden, I have been away from home for more than ten years. I never thought that I would have the opportunity to return to my hometown in this life! Just when I first arrived in Inoguchi Town, I already felt the strong commercial atmosphere, which seemed to be as good as that of other Kinai towns.  "HahaHinata has done a good job. Mino Country under my family has indeed improved a lot compared to a few years ago, but there is still a big gap compared to Kinai. It has not been long since the Rakuzuo Order was first implemented. I think it will be better in the future."  It will be more prosperous!" Oda Nobunaga was very happy. He liked this kind of intellectual samurai the most, especially samurai who were both civil and military. Akechi Mitsuhide happened to be both.  It's rare to meet such an excellent warrior.  The mood is naturally much more comfortable.  Niwa Nagahide said: "I heard that Akechi Hyuga Shoden is related to the late Dosanden! In that case, he should also be related to Mrs. Nohime, right?" Akechi Mitsuhide said awkwardly: "That's true, my dear.  My aunt, Mrs. Xiaomi, is the principal wife of Daosan Palace, and I happen to be Mrs. Nohime*s step-brother. Although she is called the step-brother, I have not seen her for twenty years. I have already forgotten Mrs. Nohime*s appearance.§ ※So.  The Hyuga Wardens are no strangers! The samurai from Owari and Mino are like one family, don*t you think so? Hahaha" Shibata Katsuie*s loud voice was heard throughout the room.  It was clear to everyone that the samurai from Mino, such as Mori Katsunari, Habuta Yorotaka, etc., all smiled.  Oda Nobunaga was also very happy and praised Quan Liuchang for his progress.  Now that he knew that the two parties still had this level of kinship, the conversation between the two parties unknowingly drew closer and closer. Oda Nobunaga asked seemingly unintentionally: "I heard that when the shogunate was at its peak, there were tens of thousands of tigers under his command, and the Hyuga Shou  As the public leader of the shogunate, he must lead many shogunate samurai, right?§ Mitsuhide Akechi didn*t seem to hear his off-screen voice, and drank a glass of sake and said proudly: ※In the past, there were indeed tens of thousands of troops stationed in Yamashiro Kingdom, but these are just a few.  At the end of the year, the shogunate declined, and the number of soldiers was reduced to only about 3,000. Although the number of people was small, it did not affect the ability to defeat the two formations of the Miyoshi army and obtain the heads of more than 1,000 people. " Oda Nobunaga nodded.  He pondered for a moment and then asked: "Hyuuga Shoden is a famous general in the world, and he worked tirelessly to rescue His Highness Gonggao. It is very hard to talk about the ins and outs of the Eonglu Rebellion? We and other distant country daimyo are ignorant and ignorant, please still ask  Hinata Mamoru told me the truth." Akechi Mitsuhide's expression changed, and then he said slowly: "The death of General Yongroku Daisuri is full of mysteries. There are different opinions, and I don't know exactly what happened.  Before noon, I suddenly received the news that the Nijo Imperial Palace was besieged by a large army, so I left Jizhao Temple with three thousand troops to rush to the aid of the Nijo Imperial Palace. However, I did not want to run into the three good troops who rushed out of Xiangguo Temple on the way. I was worried that the shogunate would be damaged by being tied up in Xiangoku Temple.  The Miyoshi family did not dare to take action. Coincidentally, the Miyoshi army did not seem to be interested in fighting. After an hour of confrontation, the Miyoshi family retreated south. " "Why did the Miyoshi family send troops to besiege the Nijo Imperial Palace?  Holding His Highness, Guangyuan Temple must be very helpless!" Akechi Mitsuhide's eyes moved, and he said secretly: "It can't be summed up by just two words it should be despair!" Oda Nobunaga knew very well, Akechi Mitsuhide said.  His Highness Kakata was referring to Yoshiaki Ashikaga. He frowned tightly and stroked his beard and said, "So that's it! They really kidnapped His Highness Komikata in an attempt to support him. However, Kogenin-den would rather die than surrender and was killed in the Nijo Imperial Palace? Miyoshi family  You are so audacious. You regard the majesty and laws of our martial arts family as nothing. It is simply unreasonable for the heroes of the territory to tolerate such tyrannical beasts." Akechi Mitsuhide didn't believe the righteousness in his mouth at all. He secretly laughed and said: "I don't know, Lord Wu Siba, when I hear Zhi Zhi!  What would Tian Nobunaga think of these words? It is really ridiculous that a rebellious official who has risen up as a retainer of the Dai family and a villain who has exiled his lord can say such high-sounding words. "  The secret thoughts in my heart were hidden, and the smile on my face remained unchanged as I continued: "I then led my army to break into Kyoto, defeated two formations of the Sanyoshi Army, and was surrounded by the Sanyoshi Army from all directions. I only had time to rescue the Odaisho Palace before I hurriedly retreated.  , Thanks to the Miyoshi family's formation, I couldn't catch up, so I took the opportunity to escape." Oda Nobunaga turned sideways and stared at Akechi Mitsuhide's expression, and asked strangely: "I am surprised that I haven't heard that the Odaisho appeared in the Guangyuan Temple.  At the funeral, I thought that Godaisho-don was being held captive by the Miyoshi family, but it turned out that he was rescued by Hyuga Moriden. I wonder if Godaisho-don is in Otani Castle now, so why didn*t I hear that Godaisho-don appeared at the funeral in Kyoto? Could it be that  What happened to Godaisho-den again?§ Mitsuhide Akechi smiled bitterly and sighed: ※It*s not that I don*t want to attend the funeral, but the Kyoto controlled by the Miyoshi family is really too dangerous. I rescued Godaisho-den and fled all night, or was there a storm?  We were able to successfully lead the army to withdraw from Kyoto. Initially, I was planning to place the Godaisho Palace in Yajima Gosho. Since there were many things to deal with in Kyoto, I sent the Godaisho Palace to Sakamoto Castle before leaving, preparing to wait for the Shogun.  I will invite him back after he ascends the throne." "Then where is Odaisho-den now?" "I don't know" Oda Nobunaga secretly shook his head, thinking that you could send such an important person to Sakamoto.  , this is not because my head is dizzy, but I really can*t find a better reason.  But on the other hand, it*s really difficult to do.  More than 3,000 people escorted a woman to escape overnight.  With two children and several maids, this combination must be equipped with a spacious and comfortable carriage, as well as various luxurious daily necessities. These requirements are not met by Akechi Mitsuhide, a general who leads troops in war.  of.  Akechi Mitsuhide said with a look of shame: "It is not appropriate to send His Majesty Godaisho-dono anywhere, and the situation at that time did not allow me to think too much. After much deliberation, I decided to send His Majesty Godai-sho-dono to Sakamoto for resettlement. Looking back now, it turned out to be a mistake.  "It might be a better choice to send Odaishoden to Gifu City." "Hyuga Shoden is indeed reasonable. If it were sent to Gifu City, I would definitely treat it as a guest, but it's a pity that it was sent to Sakamoto."  Oda Nobunaga sighed for a moment, and then said: "Let's not mention that, let's talk about the mission of Hinata's guardianship here? I heard that His Highness Kakata is staying in Odani Castle, but I don't know what is the situation of His Highness?" said  When it comes to the main topic, we can't be so unruly. Niwa Nagahide waved away the dancers. The pleasant atmosphere of drinking and chatting at the banquet immediately changed. Akechi Mitsuhide coughed and said seriously: "It's not good! His Highness K身kata summoned him one after another.  Rokkaku Ky身shoden, Asai Bizenden, Asakura Kingoden, and Takeda Jibuden were not very satisfied with the performance of these highnesses. They heard that Tokaido had revealed a hero, so they sent me to Gifu Castle.  I hope that Kamikado can do his part for His Highness K身kata and the shogunate." Niwa Nagahide said: "So it is indeed not easy for His Highness K身kata to escape from the hands of the Miyoshi family. The Kinai daimyo may not be strong enough.  "It's understandable that they have more energy than strength." "I Hengxing thought it was not because they were mentally weak. It must be because they didn't want to provoke the Miyoshi family! Sure enough, His Majesty the Lord required me to come to the Oda family!"  "Ikeda Tsuneaki chuckled, and the samurai present showed deep understanding. Going to Luo is the ultimate dream of every samurai family. Even if they don't know the significance of going to Luo, it does not prevent them from going to Kyoto to see the world and show the bravery of rural samurai.  mentality.  Oda Nobunaga has an ambition buried in his heart that is unwilling to be lonely. He has lost his way since the pacification of Ise Kingdom. The peaceful life in the past few years is intolerable to him. Fortunately, the Eiroku Rebellion that broke out at this moment gave him a huge  Given the opportunity, Oda Nobunaga could hardly help but jump up, pack his bags and go to Luo to attack Miyoshi's rebellious ministers.  Oda Nobunaga stood up and shouted: "Gentlemen! The Miyoshi family was in cahoots and ravaged the territory, causing the tragedy of the Nijo Imperial Palace and the whole family being destroyed. As a result, the whole world was in an uproar in Kyoto. His Highness K身kata was kidnapped by the villains and suffered unspeakably. This is me  It*s a great opportunity for the Oda family to take advantage of the situation and march westward to sweep away the evildoers! I, Nobunaga, am willing to serve the shogunate and His Majesty the Lord! Please lend me your strength!§ The ministers bowed their heads with high morale, Akechi Mitsuhide smiled.  He nodded in admiration, but Takigawa Kazumasu bowed with full support and said worriedly: "But what should I do if Okazaki Castle is being surrounded by the Takeda Army? The generals of the Takeda family are Takeda Nomashiden and Mikawa Shoden.  Several letters of urgent request for reinforcements urged the reinforcements. Should we finish the finishing work in the direction of Mikawa before heading to Luo?" Oda Nobunaga suddenly stood up and shouted: "Hikoemon!" Takigawa Kazumasu hurriedly leaned over and said: "Omi.  "Here we are!" Oda Nobunaga called for his pen, took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone and scribbled down more than a hundred words, signed his exclusive Tenkabubu Seal, stuffed it into a scroll, applied lacquer and threw it to him, saying:??: "Take a handwritten letter from my family and go to the Takeda Army camp outside Okazaki Castle to meet with Takeda Noriyama. No matter what method you use, you must convince the Takeda family to stop fighting and truce. I leave this matter to you.  Come on!" Takigawa Kazuyoshi's face turned pale and he whispered: "I will obey the order." Kinoshita Hideyoshi suddenly came out of the corner and said: "I am willing to go with Takigawa-don. I am confident that I can persuade the Takeda family to withdraw.  "Oh? It turns out it's you bald rat" Oda Nobunaga pondered for a moment, looked at him deeply and said, "Go ahead if you want to! Remember, this operation can only succeed and cannot fail."  Mitsuhide touched his palms and sighed: "Shang Susuke-den and his powerful warriors are like a crucian carp crossing a river. How can I be admired by you?"  The Takeda family is a troublesome opponent. I hope that the Takeda Daisen doctor can retreat this time! "" A long and cold winter has quietly descended on the earth. Unlike Echigo, where there is a lot of snowfall every winter, in Kanto every winter  It's the dry season.  During this season, farmers stay at home with nothing to do.  They will be summoned by the followers to serve in general service.  Although it is not as cost-effective as paying back wages in previous years, farmers are still quite happy to earn a ration for free.  The days are getting better and better, and I am no longer as worried as in previous years. I am always worried that a big plague will happen in a bad year, and the elderly and children will die in great numbers. If the lords go to war and force them to fight, then the days will be  The only option is really to escape, but that is not the case now.  Military service is basically not allocated to farmers.  When lords from all over the country draw dice, they will give priority to the old underground family in the village. This is a special requirement for the underground servant class. If you have land assets, you must bear the obligation to recruit at any time. If you don't recruit in peacetime, it is the kindness of the general's palace. In wartime, it is necessary  It is your duty to serve in the military. Secondly, you choose the Tongxin people who are responsible for the self-defense and protection of the village. When the Tongxin people are short of manpower, they will select the best farmers to serve in the military, so that the farming season can be guaranteed.  Peasants don*t like to go to Tongxinzhong, thinking that it is a place where lazy and idle scoundrels want to stay. It is also a good thing for the officers and soldiers to capture these scoundrels and serve as soldiers.  In order to save them from wandering around with guns and being annoying, whose children have the ability will be directly selected into the Kanto General Mansion to become elite soldiers.  Even if you can't become a samurai master and gain some achievements after a few years, you can return to the village to buy property and become an underground man in the village.  Nowadays, farmers live a comfortable life. It doesn*t matter if they are a little busier in spring and autumn. Winter is the most comfortable and comfortable life. When planting wheat in the fields, it is enough for the family members to take care of them. If they can work hard, they can just do a few things.  Clothes and bedding, along with the long team to dig rivers and open canals, there is always endless work waiting for them. The followers uniformly arrange tents for camping and accommodation, and sometimes they dig holes and put them away to stop the horses. The followers say that they need to do it at any time  Practicing wartime skills will come in handy in case civilian husbands are recruited.  In the Edo Castle Imperial Palace, Ashikaga Yoshitoki plays with a silver-white coin in his hand. This is the most common currency of the Spanish Empire. The Spanish Empire*s conquest of Central America at the beginning of this century was a major event that shocked Europe. In the past thirty years,  Many years ago, Carlos V established a mint in Central America, and the first silver coins minted and issued were named after him and his mother.  England also possesses Yingyang's casting technology, but it is a pity that England at this time is not the invincible empire on which the sun never sets. The numerous enemies from inside and outside have become a problem for this country's rise. The biggest threshold is the Spanish Empire, which is both an enemy and a friend.  King Philip II of Spain has always been obsessed with his sister-in-law Elizabeth I. This is the only way the wise queen can bargain for time.  The goods brought by Claudia not only involve the transaction of trade goods, but also the exchange of the most precious technology. Ashikaga Yoshitoki exchanges water hammer technology for coinage technology. This is a transaction where no one loses and the other gains. Both parties get what they need.  To fulfill their respective needs, England needs water hammer technology to improve industrial technology, while Ashikaga needs his own currency.  On the front of the silver coin are Ashikaga two lines and two patterns, below are a few small characters of the folding money pattern, on the back are the seven characters "Namo Hachiman Bodhisattva" written by the gold hook iron painting, and the edge of the eagle ocean is from Jiajing Tongbao  The wavy serrations, ordinary profiteers without water hammer technology and lack of minting technology can never think of making bad coins and passing them off as inferior coins.  Ashikaga Yoshitoki weighed the eagle ocean, blew it gently and made a familiar buzzing sound, and praised: "The pattern is clear without any trace of chiseling, the color is delicate and rich, and the production is exquisite. It is really a work of art." "This is just the first batch.  The samples of silver coins will be minted in the second and third batches in the future. We have mastered the Nanman's production technology and believe that it will not take long to produce exquisite eagle silver coins." Matsui Yuxian took out a few more sets.  Sample, the writing on the back is the same,It's just that the Ashikaga two hikiry身 printed on the front have changed into Sasa Ryudan and Gochitiri respectively.  Pick up a handful of silver coins from the tray and gently throw them down. The silver coins collide with each other and make a pleasant tinkling sound. A stack of silver coins overlaps each other and exudes a silvery luster that is dazzling, even for an old farmer in the country who cannot read a word.  , seeing this plate of silver coins will also realize its value.  He caught a glimpse of the young people peeking out their heads furtively. Ashikaga Yoshitoki coughed and startled them away, and then he said: "The casting of silver coins is related to military and national affairs. We must not leak the secrets of cherishing it. From now on, we will quietly collect the silver from the outside world."  Circulation, taking in all the silver coins on the market, gold coins are not particularly necessary for the time being. " Matsui Yuxian said casually: "Please save me, this matter is always controlled within a very small scope, except for the minister and the public.  Your Highness, probably only the few people outside the house know about it." Ashikaga Yoshitoki smiled softly: "There is no problem with Yu's nickname. You don't need to worry about it. Speaking of which, your brother's legitimate son Matsui Yasuyuki also worked in the house for several years.  It is said that his surname is the third one along with Ina Chuji, the legitimate son of the Ina Tadashi family, and Tanaka Yoshimasa, the legitimate son of Tanaka Shigemasa. Many retainers have told me that there are many talents in the shogunate, and staying in the mansion for a few years will be more useful than being the eldest son in the family.  , Yuya deeply agrees! Mitsui Toraka's second son Yukichi is on duty by Yu's side, and Yu praises him for being as capable as Hosokawa Fujitaka, Keijiro, the boys from the Sakon family, and the boys from the Ii family follow Jin.  Oumaru rode around all day long, gradually honing his superb skills in horse archery and archery. I see that your Shinjiro is not too young, why not send him to the government to work as a minor for a few years, and then make arrangements to become an official based on his personal development?  !§ ※I respectfully comply with His Majesty*s orders.§ (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature for better and faster updates!
