    In the more than half a year since the post-war disposal was completed, the haze of war that shrouded all of Japan gradually dissipated, and the daimyo were all demobilized. After returning to their respective territories for a simple handover, they went to new territories in accordance with the disposal plan.  Although government affairs were complicated during this period, they were generally relatively smooth, which also allowed Hideho to enjoy the comfort he had not experienced in a long time.  Of course, there were two things that kept him worried: First, Tokugawa Ieyasu stayed in Fushimi's Yashiki to recuperate on the pretext of being ill, and was still unable to get up to go to Mount Koya to become a monk. Hideho wanted to send someone to urge him, but he was afraid  The outside world thought that he was too aggressive and never acted well; secondly, Ishida Mitsunari also stayed in Osaka Castle and often walked to Honmaru. It seemed that he wanted to use the face of Yodohime and his son to make the last effort to stay in Osaka.  On the fifth day of October of that year, Maeda Toshimasa told Hideho that the Maeda family¡¯s time was running out, and the Maeda family had begun to prepare for the funeral.  Todo Takatora immediately persuaded Hideho to take this as an opportunity to perform Yuanfu ceremonies for Yukichiyo and Takeohmaru. He invited the most famous person in Tohoku, Hideyuki Kamao, Hideyuki's adopted brother, to be Yukichiyo's brother-in-law, and invited the most famous person in Hokuriku, Maeda Toshiie, to be his brother-in-law.  The black-hatted bride of his legitimate son, Takeohmaru.  Taking this opportunity, Hideho, on the one hand, ordered the daimyo to move to the Yashiki in Fushimi Castle on the grounds that Osaka had gone through turmoil and needed repairs, and all attended the Yuanfu ceremony carefully prepared by Hideho after the new year.  On the other hand, entrusting Todo Takatora to meet with Tokugawa Hideyasu and hinting that he urged Tokugawa Ieyasu to leave for Mount Koya as soon as possible can be regarded as a step forward for both parties.  A few days later, Tokugawa Hideyasu asked for a few months' grace on the grounds that it was freezing cold and Ieyasu was worried that Ieyasu's health could not support him. Unexpectedly, there was no reply, and the profound meaning was self-evident.  In order to avoid causing trouble to the Tokugawa family, Tokugawa Ieyasu had no choice but to leave Osaka Castle on the first day of November and went to live in seclusion in Mount Koya accompanied by Honda Tadakatsu and other senior ministers.  Even Tokugawa Ieyasu is gone, so Ishida Mitsunari is naturally shameless and stays in Osaka Castle. Angrily, he rushes to Kanto with his retainers to clean up the mess.  Shimotsou has been under the control of Tokugawa Hideyasu for a long time, and is adjacent to Hideyasu's existing territory of Hitachi. The pro-Tokugawa forces in the territory are very strong, and they ignore Ishida Mitsunari, and most of the policies he promulgates are either overt or covert.  Ishida Mitsunari has many times wanted to imitate Hideho in Tokaido and catch all these disobedient guys, but he is well aware of his own weaknesses: on the one hand, the retainers group is not strong enough, and Masuda Nagamori, who is of the same mind, is also separated from him.  On the other hand, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was behind Hideho's murder, but who was behind him?  The Elder's Commitment Meeting has long since ceased to exist, and the Toyotomi clan that he was loyal to is declining day by day. As for Hideho, he is a guy who doesn't like his own good. It will be good if he doesn't add insult to injury. It's really impossible to expect him to support him.  After much thought, Ishida Mitsunari gave up this radical approach and instead tried to use peaceful methods such as negotiation to solve the current problems. Unfortunately, those wealthy families and landowners were all pushy and pushed Ishida Mitsunari's concessions  Seeing it as cowardice, he got worse and worse.  But today is different from the past. Without the support of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the once powerful leader of the Five Acts had nothing to do. He could only send people to Fushimi repeatedly to meet Hideho and Tokugawa Hideyasu, shamelessly hoping that the two could reconcile.  So that I can implement the New Deal with peace of mind.  To his request, Tokugawa Hideyasu was noncommittal. After all, these arrogant and domineering guys were loyal to him. He asked them to accept the rule of Ishida Mitsunari. Not to mention them, even he found it difficult to accept it for a while.  Tokugawa Hideyasu had indeed thought about moving them to Hitachi, not only to relieve Ishida Mitsunari's worries, but also to hope that these guys could serve as his own strength to compete with the "Southern Thirty-three Halls" and Makabe Yoshitsune of Makabe County.  A threat to Hitachi's dominance.  However, most of these wealthy families and landowners relocated and were unwilling to leave their hometowns. Even if they were asked by their former lords, they would find it difficult to obey.  In this case, Tokugawa Hideyasu had no choice but to leave them behind in Shimo and let them serve as his eyes and ears around Ishida Mitsunari, monitoring every move of the Ishida family.  At the same time, these local forces were used to interfere with Ishida Mitsunari's governance and prevent the Ishida family from becoming stronger.  After all, he was already surrounded by powerful enemies, and he didn't want another force to rival him in his old territory.  After seeing Tokugawa Hideyasu's attitude clearly, Hideho could guess his intention to some extent.  Hideho certainly does not want Ishida Mitsunari to become bigger, but trying his best to clean up and suppress the Tokugawa family's power in the old territory is the more urgent task at the moment.  To this end, Hideho sent Motoji Goto to accompany Tokugawa Hideyasu to Yuki. The former, in the name of Hideho's special envoy, summoned the Tokugawa and Ishida families, as well as the various wealthy families and localities in the lower area to coordinate and handle the matter.  Due to Hideho's power and face, the three parties finally reached an agreement: excluding those who were willing to submit to the Ishida clan, one wave of the remaining people would be moved to Hitachi for resettlement, and the other wave would be moved to Soma and Inba counties at the junction of Shimoso and Hitachi.  ?To the east of Kanuma, Hideho sent agents to manage it, and paid taxes to the Ishida clan on time. It was still under the jurisdiction of the Ishida clan in name, and the Tokugawa clan was not allowed to interfere. It would be resettled when the time is right.  All three parties were satisfied with this result. In addition, as the year was approaching, Tokugawa Hideyasu did not want to continue to entangle with Ishida Mitsunari over this matter. In addition, Hideho also reconciled, and could not refute his face. In the end, the three parties also  An agreement was reached.  For Ishida Mitsunari, the old Tokugawa clan ministers who were originally scattered in 11 counties can be divided and collapsed, and compressed into half of Soma and Inba counties. It does not matter whether the tax burden is collected or not, and the entire administration can be cleared up.  obstacles, this is of great significance.  For Tokugawa Hideyasu, even though his power in the country has been greatly weakened, he still has some reservations, and the wealthy families and local people who stay in the country are mostly stubborn and unruly guys. These guys usually rely on favors.  As for Jiao, he was often offended by Tokugawa Hideyasu. Even if they were willing to move to the mainland, he would not dare to take them in.  Leaving them behind in Xia Zong is considered as a way to avoid trouble.  For Hideho, the biggest advantage is that a wedge has been placed in Shimo-sou Province. Soma and Inba are located in the east of Shimo-sou Province. Makabe Yoshitsune's Makabe County is located in the middle of Hitachi, and the "Nanbu Sansankan" is naturally located  In the southern part of Hitachi, these three places occupy one side, and together they form the iron triangle that monitors the Hitachi area, and the control of Kanto has been further strengthened.
