Chapter 1228 Really poor public(2/2)
The samurai clan within the shogunate was mainly enshrined in Yamashiro Kingdom and its surrounding shogunate territories. This was also the reason why Ashikaga Yoshiteru and Ise Sadism completely broke up with each other.
In order for Ashikaga Yoshiteru to revive the Ashikaga clan, he needed a large amount of military expenditures to expand his army, and he needed to control the shogunate's territory and provide them with sufficient supplies.
This seriously violated the interests of the shogunate group, and eventually led the shogunate to stand by and watch Miyoshi go to Luo and kill Ashikaga Yoshiteru.
Now that Ashikaga Yoshiaki is in power, her footing is not yet stable and she needs to win over the ministers. Naturally, she can no longer take advantage of the ministers' rights.
The last piece of tax revenue from Kyoto castle towns was due to the Miyoshi army plundering Kyoto castle towns and a large number of merchants, town residents, and cultural people fled. It was a period of depression.
The castle towns in Kyoto were the treasure trove of the shogunate. They had already suffered heavy losses during the Miyoshi period, and it was impossible to allow Ashikaga Yoshiaki to deplete the fishing grounds and impose heavy taxes on the castle towns.
After all the calculations, Ashikaga Yoshiaki, a general, really deserves to be called a poor man. He is indeed extremely poor.
The news that Shiba Yiyin controlled the Hokurikudo trade route and the Shiba Tadashi Foundation was going to provide annuities to grassroots warriors was widely spread outside.
High-ranking warriors ridiculed Shiba Yiyin for her husband's benevolence, giving out money indiscriminately, and raising a lazy wife. But who among the lower-level warriors in each family would not envy him?
At this moment, the Sibo Zhong Fund is still a piece of cake, and everyone is dubious about it. When the day comes when the food is actually distributed, it will make the lower-class warrior girls from other families jealous to death.
The situation of Ashikaga's return to the public is a bit like Shibata Katsuie's dilemma in Owari.
At that time, although Shibata Katsuie controlled the standing army of the Oda family, these people were poor people who had no territory and relied on their jobs and salaries.
Without fighting, there would be no rewards, and without knowledge and deeds, they could only eat chaff.
Therefore, when Oda Nobunaga told them to lead them to win the battle and seal the territory, Shibata Katsuie's eyes turned red, and he knelt down and worked as a dog for Oda Nobunaga until now.
The Ashikaga clan members also live in a cowardly manner, with only one meal left and no next meal.
The ministers still have their own territory, and the shogunate cannot provide money or food. They can serve the shogunate for free in a high-spirited manner.
But the Ashikama Hui people really couldn't survive. They needed military expenses to eat, and some of them also needed to support their families.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki had no money to support them, which was already very annoying. He also had to act arrogantly and boss them around in the name of Ashikaga Shogun.
The territory of the manager Niki Yoshimasa is on the edge of Iga country, with only a few small villages in the mountains.
Not to mention that she is unwilling to use her own money and food to subsidize the Ashikaga family's troops. Even if she is willing, can she afford it with her little capital?
The senior officials of the shogunate talk about things in high-spirited terms, but when it comes to spending their own money to supplement the shogunate's shortfalls, who would be willing?
The Ashikaga Hui are currently relying on Sakamoto Castle to supply supplies, but it is obviously not enough for one city to support 500 Hime warriors.
Faced with the embarrassing current situation, Ashikama Hui people will certainly miss their ancestors and express gratitude and remembrance.
If Shiba Yiyin, the deceased son of the ancestor, was willing to use money and food to win over Ashikaga members, they would most likely stand up to defend justice.
The righteousness is awe-inspiring, and there is still food to eat, so why not?
Seeing that Ninagawa Himashi spoke eloquently, Hatakeyama Takamasa became more and more excited and bowed.
"Dad... Otaisho, please make a decision immediately!"
Looking at the two people who were looking forward to it, Shiba Yiyin was still a little hesitant.
Judging from Ninagawa's suggestions, it is not difficult to sideline Ashikaga Yoshiaki, a poor official. But the question is, should Yoshiaki take over the mess of the shogunate?
Ninagawa himself was an old thinker, and his mind was still stuck in the shogunate's ideas for thousands of years. Hatakeyama Takamasa was blinded by his power and could only see the majesty of the leader.
But Yi Bank is very clear that the shogunate is now on the verge of collapse, and it is a negative asset that will be liquidated sooner or later.
The forced marriage at the council meeting this time made him too sad, and he didn't want to fall into this unsolvable quagmire again.
If Ashikaga Yoshiaki is sidelined, he will inevitably be tied more tightly to the shogunate. When the shogunate overthrows in the future, he will also be affected. This is not a good deal.
While he was hesitating, footsteps could be heard on the porch outside the tea room.
Kamao Clan and Yagyu Munomi appeared in front of the three people and bowed.
Yiyin frowned. Kamaojigo was not a person who didn't understand the rules. She suddenly interrupted the tea party between the three of them. Did something happen?
"what happened?"
Kamojigo said.
