Chapter 1174 Battle table position(2/2)
On the surface, the Hosokawa Mibuchi family is a good samurai family who are loyal to the general and safeguard the shogunate. How can they ignore the shogunate's justice for their own selfish interests? Absolutely impossible!
Mibuchi Haru understood what Hosokawa Motonsune meant, she was also hesitant about the matter and said.
"Futaka is working hard for His Highness Ashikaga Yoshiaki, but he didn't expect that the Yoshigami boy...Odaisho would come back so early.
Now he already has a prejudice against our two families, and this letter is very rude. If it doesn't satisfy him, I'm afraid..."
Mibuchi Haru now no longer dares to call Yoshiyin the boy as he used to, and regards him as a promising junior.
Yoshigan Shiba, who had gained such a great reputation in Kanto and returned to Japan with the Royal White Flag, fought in Raku, quickly defeating the Rokkaku family that had been entrenched in Minamiomia for hundreds of years and had left the Ashikaga Shogunate helpless.
This achievement was actually attributed to Oda Nobunaga, but how could the samurai family think so highly of Owari's countrymen in recent years? Naturally, it was all attributed to Yoshigan Shiba, the Ashikaga military god.
Now that his prestige is at its peak, Sanyuanqing doesn't dare to rely on his old age, and his tone becomes more and more respectful.
Hosokawa Motonsune shook his head and said.
"The emperor is so powerful that our plan has failed. Fortunately, he did not quarrel with us. This is a blessing among misfortunes.
Fujitaka wrote from Minami-Omi that the Imperial Office did not want to see internal strife among powerful local factions in the shogunate, but was still willing to unite everyone.
But the incident of Takamasa Hatakeyama really made him doubt whether we are worthy of unity. Therefore, it is too late to say anything now. The most important thing is to take responsibility.
Fujihide, you are the guardian of Kitakogenchi, and Hatakeyama Takamasa is your superior officer.
You did something wrong this time. Go to her temporary residence immediately, apologize to her, and be sure to get her understanding."
Mibuchi Fujiei bowed and accepted the order, then hesitated and said.
"Hatakeyama Takamasa is now living under the fence of Kitakawachi and is under my protection. Come to think of it, she doesn't dare to make any excessive demands.
It's just that the Imperial Palace said that after the spring plowing, a Hanoi expeditionary army will be formed to conquer the traitor Yu Zuo Xinjiao. Will this affect our participation in the Battle of Shangluo?
Izumi Kingdom and North Kawauchi have already begun preparations. After the spring plowing, they will go north to participate in the battle of Sanluo. It would not be appropriate to change the course at this time and attack Nan Kawauchi, right?
Things must be prioritized. The Miyoshi family is entrenched in Kyoto, and the traitors who killed the general must be severely punished. This is the top priority of the samurai family of the shogunate now.
We might as well write to the imperial office and ask him to postpone the attack on Youzuo Xinjiao until the battle of Shangluo is over, and then we can plan for it slowly."
Hosokawa Motonsune sighed.
"Fujiying, you are wrong.
If we don't attack Yuzuo's religion, then we won't even be qualified to participate in the Battle of Shangluo, so what's the top priority?
The Mihaoshi family was originally defeated by Yutaisuo, but this time Shangluo was supported by people's will and united as one.
The Mihaoshi family was unfamiliar with the place and place in Shancheng, and the time and place were unfavorable. How could they withstand the thunderous blow of the imperial court?
You have to understand that in the battle of Shangluo, everyone is competing to gain credit, not to share the worries of the imperial court.
You talk about priorities. In the mind of the imperial court, what is priority? What is priority?
Is the Miyoshi family a serious problem for the imperial government? After Miyoshi Chokei's death, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu became incompetent. The Miyoshi family is already a withered skeleton in the grave, and there is no need to worry about it.
What the Imperial Office is most worried about now is whether his position will be stable after the shogunate is re-established, and whether he can still be regarded as the leader of the powerful local faction in the shogunate.
The first to bear the brunt is our Hosokawa Mibuchi family. Do we still obey his leader?
Fujitaka's running back and forth for Ashikaga Yoshiaki has aroused the dissatisfaction of the Odai. Fujihide, you are indifferent to Hatakeyama Takamasa's defeat of Samu.
For the imperial office, figuring out whether we are still reliable is the top priority."
When Mibuchi Fujihide heard this, he immediately became anxious.
If it weren't for Shiba Yoshiyin, how could such a big pie as Kitakawachi's territory of more than 100,000 koku be able to hit Mibuchi Fujihide's head?
Now Shiba Yigen is guilty of suspicion. No, this is not considered suspicion. The Hosokawa Mibuchi family is indeed hedging their bets, which arouses his disgust.
Izumi Country is the traditional territory of the Izumi-Hosokawa family, and its status is stable. However, the land of North Kawachi was given to the Mibuchi family by Yoshigan. If he had other thoughts, how could Mibuchi Fujihide not be afraid?
she asked hurriedly.
"What should I do?"
Hosokawa Motonsune glanced at Mibuchi Haru, and saw that she was also looking panicked, and shook his head secretly. This mother and daughter are blessed with good fortunes, and their abilities are really mediocre.
she said with relief.
"At this moment, the best strategy is to win the battle in South Hanoi and clear our suspicions.
The meaning of the Imperial Palace is very clear. If we kill Yuzuo Xinjiao, we can forget about the past and allow us to go out to fight in the battle of Luo.
