"The plan drawn up by His Highness is very detailed and reasonable. I have no objections." To the surprise of Ukita Hideie, Maeda Toshimasa only glanced at the plan briefly and expressed his support for Hideho. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that. , this is Maeda Toshimasa showing his favor to Hideho. "In this case, what should I do?" Ukita Hideie suddenly fell into a dilemma: "Three of the four people here have already agreed to this plan. Not only is it difficult to be accepted to raise objections at this time, on the contrary, it is also It may cause the displeasure of the Youfu family, which will definitely be detrimental to the development of the Ukita family in the future; but as the adopted son of Taiko, how can I allow such a thing to weaken the clan's strength to happen? " I thought about the personal feelings of the Ukita Hide family for a long time. After all, he defeated his reason, and while everyone was chatting, he raised some of his "confusions." "Your Highness, I am not sure about something, please give me some advice." Ukita Hideie asked respectfully. "Your Highness is being too modest." Hideho pointed his hand sideways at the plan in front of him and said calmly. "First, why were the three main culprits, Tokugawa, Uesugi and even Mori, not changed, and all of them retained knowledge of more than 100,000 koku, and the Tokugawa family even had as much as 530,000 koku! This is more than the daimyo who made military exploits Once it is promulgated, your highness will not be afraid of causing public outrage?" "Even if your highness does not ask, I will explain this to you." Hideho had obviously thought of his words, and as soon as Ukita Hideie said it, he would. The conversation continued: "First of all, in terms of guilt, the above three families are indeed the main instigators of this war. They are all lenient according to the degree of harm. It is difficult for the Naifu, Aizu Nakagan, and Aki Nakagan to be ordered to commit seppuku or even the owl's death. To eliminate the hatred in the hearts of many daimyo. However, they are not ordinary daimyo, but important ministers who have made great contributions to Nobunaga Gong and Taikaku to unify the world in the past ten years. When they conquered the east and west and became famous, we and others. But they are just Huangkou children, right? To a certain extent, without them, there would be no current world. Before Taikaku's death, they were the right-hand men of the Toyotomi clan and served the public wholeheartedly. After Taikaku's death, their ambitions expanded and they tried to usurp Fengtomi. If punished for treason, I heard that many of the daimyo who followed the army to conquer Aizu had close contacts with them, even those who had made military exploits. Daimyo, the correspondence continued during the campaign. "If you insist on changing the status of these three elders or even exterminating their families, you will not only turn a blind eye to their previous achievements, but it will also chill those daimyo who, like them, have followed the Toyotomi clan for a long time. It will also make those daimyo who have had close contact with them feel wary and uneasy, fearing that one day our Toyotomi clan will know about this matter and be convicted. This will not only affect their loyalty to the family, but also encourage them to form cliques and unite. , becoming a potential threat to the stability of the world. " Regarding Hideho's explanation, Ukita Hideke was dubious. Although there seemed to be no logical problem with Hideho's words, the three heads of the three families would continue to maintain knowledge and practice of more than 100,000 koku. This is like a tiger whose fangs are not completely pulled out. No one can guarantee that they will not make a comeback. "Is it possible that the Youfu wants to 'raise the bandits to respect themselves'? "Ukita Hideie secretly speculated. After all, as long as the potential threat is not eliminated, Hideho has reason to always control the center of the world. Although Hideho has helped him many times, between justice and personal love, he chose the former. This is to He and Hideho gradually draw a clear line, and at the same time, they must try their best to prevent the Toyotomi clan from declining. "According to what Youfu said, it is enough to give them 10,000 or 20,000 koku to preserve the family name, but why are they all more than 100,000 koku?" Don¡¯t Youfu know that most of the big names in the world don¡¯t even have 50,000 dan? What do you make them think? "Ukita Hideie asked back. "Indeed, ten or twenty thousand is enough, but please see clearly, Your Highness, in the plan drawn up by me, there are preconditions for allocating so much knowledge and practice to the Tokugawa family. "Hideho pointed to the plan on the table and said seriously: "First, all the Tokugawa clan and retainers who participated in the war must go to Mount Koya to become monks, and the Imperial Household himself is no exception; secondly, the head of the Tokugawa clan will be changed to Yu. This is our direct designation and must be enforced. Thirdly, although the Tokugawa clan retains 530,000 stone tomoyo, it must be transferred to Hitachi Kingdom, which is adjacent to Kanhachishu. Similarly, for the Mori clan, although the 480,000 koku Tomoyuki of Aki and Bingo are still retained, the prerequisite is that the Yoshikawa clan is allowed to go into exile, and all the Aki Chunagon and the retainers who participated in the war retire, and Prime Minister Yun ( Mouri Hidemoto) succeeded the Mouri clan as head. Your Highness, you only saw the 530,000 stones and the 480,000 stones, but you did not see the other prerequisites, but these are interrelated and interlocking. Taking a step back, what if Major General Yueki and Prime Minister Chuyun achieved great military exploits in Hibara, so what if they were given half a million dollars? Moreover, they themselves are famous names with 110,000 or 160,000 shi Zhixing. This timeIn the sense of the word, it is joining the clan, but in reality it can be regarded as a transfer of titles. In this way, doesn't it open up a lot? ¡± As Hideyasu said, Yuki Hideyasu was the head of the Shimonoseki clan before the war and owned 110,000 koku Tomoyuki; Mouri Hidemoto was a branch of the Mouri clan who owned 160,000 koku Tomoyuki from Nagato Nagafu. He already had a relatively solid foundation before the war, so it was natural to take over the clan with his military exploits. Of course, there was another reason that only Hideho himself knew and could only keep in his stomach: to join the clan by dividing the clan. The main family is bound to cause a certain amount of commotion. This kind of commotion can be big or small. If it is small, the family will solve it on its own. If it is big, the Toyotomi clan will need to come forward. It was because of the commotion at home that the Kamao family was reduced to 230,000 yuan. Stone is only one-quarter of the original Chixing. Hideho's purpose for doing this is very clear. If Hideyasu Yuuki and Hidemoto Mouri are capable, even if they sell them personal favors, they can easily use them in the future; if they are not capable, it will cause a commotion. , Hideho intervened justifiably. By then, no one else could be blamed for the decline of the Tokugawa and Mori families and even the annihilation of their families. In this way, the two major worries could be eliminated, but the effect was And the influence is much better than changing the two families directly. In fact, Hidemoto trusts Hidemoto Mouri more than Hideyasu Yuuki. Although the latter blocked the Tokugawa army's surprise attack at the critical moment, it was for Hideho's sake. Or is it for Hideyori? This is unknown. If he, like the Ukita Hideie in front of him, only recognizes Hideyori but not Hideho, what is the use of giving him more knowledge? Directly reducing the title, Hideho also transferred the title to the Tokugawa clan, allowing them to rule the territory of their old enemy the Satake clan. At the same time, Hideho also supported Makabe Yoshitsune as an independent daimyo, and planned to give the "Southern Thirty-three" headed by the Otaku clan Some of the descendants of "Tate" know the truth, and through these two thorns, the Tokugawa family will be stuck in Hitachi. Once there are changes in the future, Hideho will take the initiative, whether to give Yuki Hideyasu a personal favor, or to take back Hitachi. Only in Hideho's thoughts.
