Pillars of the Wu family

The new year at the beginning of the third year of Yonglu was extremely difficult. The continuous blizzard still showed no signs of stopping. Even Odawara Castle on the west bank of Sagami Bay also had a heavy snowfall. Like a mountain lying across his mind, he couldn't get rid of it, and he was thinking about the adverse effects this heavy snow would cause.

Adopted by Oshi Dingjiu as an adopted son, the Hojo family who returned to the main family looked after his brother's uneasy look, and said: "It's really annoying that the snow doesn't stop, and it's very inconvenient to go out for eagle hunting. The elders in the family are discussing that the harvest has not been good for two consecutive years, and it seems that the situation this year will not be very good."

"What Shizhao said is right. The current situation is very unfavorable to my Hojo family. It is going to be the busy season of farming and there will be continuous snowstorms. I'm afraid it will miss the good season!" Matsuda Morixiu opened his sleepy eyes, and seemed to be trying hard Doze off less quickly myself.

The old Matsuda Morihide is over 60 years old and is still trying his best to serve the public in Odawara Castle. This man has lived in Kanto for more than [-] years with Hojo Sounshita to Izu. After years of baptism, the young and handsome Kyoto samurai in the past has turned into an old Kanto The old samurai, there are not many important ministers like him who have experienced the three dynasties to assist the elders. His existence is not only a genealogy elder, but also an important figure in contact with the Kyoto shogunate.

The Matsuda family comes from the family of the shogun of the Ashikaga family. The family has collected taxes and taxes for the shogunate government for generations. The current shogunate government officials Matsuda Fujihiro, Matsuda Yorie, Matsuda Mitsutoshi, and Matsuda Yorilong are all Matsuda Morihide One of the disciples, Matsuda Morihide himself also went to Kyoto to serve as a member of the shogunate during the Tianwen period.Collection of taxes and fees by the imperial bureau in charge of the shogunate.

At the same time, he also served as an important liaison between the Sagami Hojo clan and the shogunate. Without his support, no Hojo family would have been able to kill Ogiya Uesugi in the Kagoe Night Battle.The reason why Furukawa and Xiaogong were killed in the Kanto Literature Network "Rebellion" was awe-inspiring, but they still haven't been ordered by the shogunate. If they were so reckless decades ago, they would definitely be punished, and maybe they will follow suit Soun Hojo wiped out the old rule of Horikoshi, and replaced it with other samurai as the leader of the invasion of Kanto.

It can be said that the meaning of the existence of a veteran like him is to prove to the world that the Hojo family is not only a samurai family that is rapidly becoming a daimyo in the Warring States period, but also a branch of the Kyoto samurai family that is in line with the interests of the shogunate. To a certain extent, it is also catering to the shogunate. "trend.Cater to the political orientation of the strong neighbor in the north.

The Hojo Clan shook his head and said, "What I worry about the most is the powerful enemy in the north! The town government official's appetite is getting bigger and bigger. Last year, he won a series of brilliant victories in Etchu, Kaga, and Dewa. His strength is getting stronger and stronger. How can the governor of this family settle down to govern and expand the family's territory?"

After two years of experience as a family governor, and also encountered the second national government-Taiwan battle, and the Mifune-yama battle, the Hojo clan's temperament is much calmer than it was more than a year ago, and the young Eagles have to experience wind and rain before they can soar high above the sky.Hojo Shizheng, the young governor, experienced exactly this reincarnation and re-established a correct view of governance. [

"My lord means..." Veteran Yamakaku Dingkichi asked hesitantly, "Do you want to invite or agree to the covenant of the Miyoshi family? But with the situation of my Hojo family, is it a bit powerless to lead the next encirclement network! After all, the one in the north The military strategy and resourcefulness of the Duke of the Zhenfu is really great, and the old lord is full of praise for him!"

The Hojo clan frowned slightly when he heard the words, and glanced at the three major military divisions serving as assistants, the Yamato Military Ministry's minor assistant Qingtong, and the Ise Beizhong Shouzhenyun.Ogasawara Harima guarded Yasuhiro, and saw the three wise generals raised their heads at the same time and shook their heads slightly at Hojo Ujimasa. He understood that it was some teachers who advised him to calm down.

Many officials in the evaluation room didn't notice this episode. The warriors frowned and thought hard, but Shigetsu Hojo, who was sitting in the back row, snorted coldly with his mouth curled up: "The Miyoshi family is just a family who started from the top. It's just an upstart. How can I compare it to the fact that my Hojo family is a general who conquered the Kanto by His Royal Highness the Eighth Generation Gongfang Cishaoyuan. I think that I can "control" the Eastern Kingdom as the guardian. I have to pull out the so-called Kira's siege network, I really don't know how high the sky is and how thick the ground is!"

The Hojo clan of Ise was an outsider in Kanto, and wanted to use the name of Hojo to get closer, but was exposed by love. He simply tore his face during the Kanto Astronomical Rebellion and claimed that he was Ise, the deacon of the shogunate government. The origin of the clan is clear, if you don’t like to hear it, then I don’t like to act, why are the Kanto samurai so powerful and still get beaten up by our Kyoto samurai and so on.

Anyway, the group of young samurai in Hojo's family who spoke the rural Kanto dialect began to claim to be samurai from Kyoto again. If nothing happened, they showed off the fact that their ancestors were ordered by the shogunate to go to Izu, which made many subordinates The foreigners in the Hojo family were very disgusted, and the Hojo clan government did not stop it, allowing this trend to gradually rise.

Shimizu Yasuhide is a bit older than Shigeru Hojo, and when he was nearly [-] years old, he added to the genealogy of the generation family. He relied not only on his excellent ability to govern and implement politics, but also on his good military exploits and the reputation accumulated by his father. , his father, Shimizu Tsunakichi, served as the servant of Hojo Ujiyasu, and his mother was Hojo Ujiyasu's "nurse" mother, so although he was ten years younger than Hojo Ujiyasu, he was still qualified as a righteous brother.

As the elder of the 21 families in Izu, and the youngest family elder of the Hojo family, even if the Hojo Ujimasa sees him, he must maintain a certain amount of respect and courtesy, because he is the youngest elder, and he usually has to be self-confident. Hanging around with these young warriors who are younger than him, he has cultivated a reputation of being modest and serious among the old family, but he has a bad reputation among young warriors for being arrogant.

Seeing Shige Hojo criticizing Miyoshi's family, he deliberately followed up with a few words, so he coughed and said, "The repair doctor Miyoshi suffered a big loss in Kanto last year, when an army of [-] besieged General Nakajo of Kira's family. Xiu and the dark Liujiao Yixian fought hard for a summer and finally failed to win the capital. They sacrificed tens of thousands of people in vain in exchange for a relatively decent harmony. From this point of view, it is no wonder that they were defeated by the newly-emerged Lord of the Town! "

Kasahara Yasuaki is one of the 21 restaurants in Izu.At the same time, he is also a member of the young samurai in the Hojo family. Seeing his immediate boss open his mouth, he also taunted him: "The Miyoshi family overestimated themselves. Even the old master led the army and was defeated by the Kira family. Doctor Takeda Ozen is such a hero." He was also beaten into a slump, how can he, an upstart from the Awa countryside, compare to him, even the left-behind general of Kira's family can't deal with it, dare to learn from us and set up Kira's siege net? It's beyond self-control!"

"That's right! My Hojo family should try my best to stabilize the territories of Shimo and Kamiso, and actively expand to the wild country. I don't have the time to play with the Miyoshi family in anti-Kira siege!"

"It's ridiculous to try to use Yongle's [-] Guanwen to buy tens of thousands of tiger and wolf teachers from my Hojo family to work hard for them! Our Hojo family doesn't lack this little money!"

"Nonsense! Wen Yongle's [-] guan is a lot of money! Didn't you see the disasters in the past two years? [-] guan can do a lot of things!"

A group of samurai chattered in a low voice, talking over and over again about how powerful the Kira family is, how the town government and the main hall are blooming on the north and the south.The people who killed the entire Dewa country were terrified and terrified, and their hearts were broken all the time. The big man of Ishiyama Honganji was forced to bow his head and admit his cowardice. This has never happened before in ancient times, and it is completely unimaginable.

Matsuda Morihide, who was taking a nap, seemed to be awakened by the group of young people's discussions. He slowly opened his eyes and smacked his lips after a while and said, "The old minister has a plan. I don't know if I should say it or not!"

Hojo Shizheng said in surprise: "Oh? Sheng Xiudian, please tell me!" [

"Although the Miyoshi family's strategy is somewhat inappropriate, it is not as good as imagined. Since Miyoshi's repair doctor is willing to pay a lot of money, let my Hojo family manage the anti-Kira encirclement network, then I will agree to him, [-] yuan Wen Yongle The money is exactly what my Hojo family urgently needs for disaster relief, and after the impact of the current snow disaster is resolved, it is not too late to discuss how to send troops to fight where."

Matsuda Shengxiu spoke very slowly, it was hard to imagine that the old man was still full of energy a few years ago.The important minister who worked hard to expand the Hojo family, with the heavy blow of the defeat in the Takayama War, Hojo Ujiyasu stepped down as the family governor and lived in seclusion in Odawara.It is very difficult to say a few words so far.

Hojo Huanan clapped his palms and praised: "It's good to say that to Ma Shoudian! This minister also means the same thing, no matter whether the matter is successful or not, bring the money first. It is better to keep the reserve fund in the treasury. There are [-] kanwen Yongle money can imitate what the Kira family has done, buy a large amount of rice and hire farmers to clear the snow, build rivers to prevent loosening the soil, and first cross the threshold of natural disasters."

Ogasawara Yasuhiro immediately echoed with a smile: "The Miyoshi family is willing to spend a lot of money to make me wait to fight the Kira family. Why can't my Hojo family take the money and then consider whether to work hard for him? Gyeonggi is so far away from Kanto." , the Miyoshi family is just a family of people from the four countries. They suddenly rose to dominate Kinki in less than ten years, but they have no foundation in Kanto. Even if they don’t get what they deserve, I’m afraid there’s nothing to complain about! "

Yamato Qingtong smiled at their attitude and said nothing after he finished speaking: "It's not good to damage the reputation of my Hojo family if I don't use money like this! Since my Hojo family takes people's money, we must do what we can. things... such as attacking the people of Kanto who are inclined to the Kira family, such as Satomi Yoshihiro from Kamiso country, Yuki Haruto from Shimoso country, Sano Masatsuna from Shimono country, and Satake Yoshiaki from Hitachi country, I believe My Hojo family's efforts to eliminate the Kira family's minions will definitely be understood by Dr. Miyoshi!"

"You're right! You're so right! I'll just do it later!" Shigeru Hojo shouted excitedly: "Clean up those Chinese people first, and don't care if they are against Kira or not. Well! Miyoshi Changqing is not a semi-general, so how can he extend his hand to Kinki to influence Kanto? It is ridiculous that an upstart trying to emulate the strategy of a semi-general! If the Miyoshi family offends the Kira family and my Hojo family, Let's see what else they use to 'intervene' in Kanto affairs!"

The samurai of the Hojo family have no resistance at all to cheating the Miyoshi family. If this matter is requested by the shogunate, they may think about it carefully, but it will be different if it is a Miyoshi family with no foundation. The bluffing overlord's aura was so weak in last year's Luozhong joint battle, it's strange that the Hojo family would be afraid of such a paper overlord like him. (To be continued.
