Chapter 268. Maori riots

The people who came made the samurai who accompanied him breathe a sigh of relief, Shido Liang Village, the general of the Maori family, the retainer of several generations, and he brought a lot of accompanying samurai, there were 500 samurai on horseback, and at least 2,000 people and horses in the brigade.

got off the sedan chair and looked at the team in front of him, Mao Li Xiu's heart was cold to the limit, full of anger, and he screamed angrily.

"Who told you to assemble and rebel?"

"The lord is fine, in the past few days, taking advantage of the turmoil in my Maori family, his Yoshikawa family has assassinated my clan's retainer Zongyao several times, Komatsumaru, Tsunayoshi-samaru, and Yuanli-samachi have been killed, and the elders of the family are worried about the family governor, and they sent their ministers to lead the family samurai to greet them!"

Kneeling on the ground suddenly, Shido Rya Village shouted angrily, and the heart of the Maori family who heard this chuckled again.

But before he could speak, the young people with the attendants beside him couldn't wait to complain.

"The governor is not good! Just now, Yoshikawa Hiromasa buried an assassin with the intention of assassinating the lord, and the shadow warrior Kura died! A number of people with small surnames were killed! The lord escaped by luck!"

This chaotic shouting completely ignited the powder keg, and it howled like a wolf, and this Shidaoliang Village stood up and turned over his horse regardless of it, pulled out his more than two-meter-long Notai knife, and roared angrily.

"The Great War of Sekigahara! His Yoshikawa family's ambition to destroy my sect is not stopped, and he almost even seized the Zhou Defense Changmen, and now they are trying in vain to erase the bloodline of my clan and seize Maoli! Killing the Lord means going to war! Samurai warriors! I want these Yoshikawa family members to pay for their blood debts!"

"Blood debt and blood payment! Blood debt and blood repayment!"

was already full of resentment because of the reduction of the seal and poverty, but now this assassination has lit the fuse, thousands of Maori samurai followed the blood boiling, hysterical roar, and then hundreds of horseback samurai galloped wildly, and the sword samurai and spear samurai behind were extremely angry strode forward.

"Come back! Come back to the governor!"

His body was covered with dirt and mud, and in the middle of the military formation, Mao Lixiu shouted angrily, but unfortunately, he could no longer control the out-of-control family samurai, and the anger that had been suppressed for decades completely exploded like a powder keg this time.

The Maori samurai hated the shogunate and the Tokugawa family, but what they hated the most was the Yoshikawa family, who were also Maori relatives!

When it comes to the Yoshikawa family, I have to mention the rise of the Maori family, in order to completely unify the power of the Maori family, Maori Yuan let the second son succeed to the Yoshikawa family, inheriting the Yoshikawa family governor, and the third son passed to the Kobayakawa family, inheriting the Kobayakawa family governor, in Japan's Warring States, this kind of surname change inheritance is too common, which is also one of the reasons why Kai Ji wants Mao Jue to worship the country Matsumaru as his adoptive father and inherit the Toyotomi family.

The earliest Maori family, also known as the Maori Liangchuan, is because the two branches of this clan worked together to build a small Maori family into a strong feudal clan that occupies up to seven countries and has a stone height of more than 1.2 million stones, and a super daimyo in the southwest.

But that era is really a pity, almost all the fierce people in the history of the Wa Kingdom have emerged, first the fierce Sixth Heaven Demon King Oda Nobunaga, in a series of wars at Ishiyama Honganji, defeated the Maori family sailor with an ironclad ship, and then, the scheming and rude monkey Toyotomi Hideyoshi took over the Oda hegemony, forcing the Maori family to bow their heads, and finally, Toyotomi Hideyoshi learned the method of the Maori Motoon, and wanted to succeed the adopted son of the Toyotomi Hideyori family who was threatening the succession to the Maori family, but unfortunately the Maori family saw through, Kobayakawa Takakei, a Maori divider, passed his son to the clan and he adopted Hideaki, so that the Toyotomi blood was involved in the plot of the Mori clan did not succeed.

But the Kobayakawa line was separated, and the political pattern of the two rivers began to collapse.

What really made this pattern completely collapse was the Battle of Sekigahara, because of the secret agreement reached with Tokugawa Ieyasu, on the battlefield, the sub-governor Yoshikawa Hiroya did his best to intercept the Mori Hidemoto, who was the right wing of the Western Army, and the general of the Mori Army, and the Maori Army did not move, causing other princes on the right wing, such as Ankokuji Huiqiong, Nagashu Masaka, and Nagamune and other tribesmen, did not dare to move, fearing that the Maori family would rebel and cause their entire army to be annihilated, and the main force of 30,000 or 40,000 people almost fought in a big battle.

Their delay was also one of the reasons that led to Kobayakawa Hideaki's entry into the Eastern Army.

But then, Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was already in control, completely ignored the previous agreement and hacked the Maori family to death in one go, reducing the territory of 1.2 million koku to 360,000 koku, almost 900,000 koku, and it is even said that Tokugawa Ieyasu once considered completely abolishing the Maori family, and gave the Nagato country and Zhou Fangguo to the Yoshikawa family.

In this life, the former governor of the family, Mori Hidemoto, never said a word to the Yoshikawa family, and now, the Yoshikawa family is taking advantage of the chaos to cut off the blood of the clan and inherit the territory of the Maori family, which can be imagined in the hearts of the Maori retainers.

And there is a direct contradiction recently, because in the Kyushu crusade, the Mori family did not work or contribute, and the shogunate seemed to be secretly discussing that it would cut another 30,000 koku from the territory of the Mori family to the Iwakuni Domain of the Yoshikawa family.

The uneasiness of the contemporary governor Yoshikawa Hiromasa really became real, he had the foresight to turn away from Mori Hide's side early, but it was only a moment late, and in the early morning of the next day, he had just returned to Iwayama Castle, and the samurai retainers who were angry from all over the Mori family were almost 7,000 strong, and then surrounded the small Iwayama Castle.

Even if it is an independent daimyō, the rock mountain is only 30,000 stones, and it is suddenly surrounded, there is no time to call the samurai in the wilderness, and the entire mountain castle defenders plus the mobilized people are only in their early 3,000s, and the war here can be imagined!

The shouts, the roars, the crackling of the burning wood, the sky that had only cleared this morning, was now shrouded in thick black smoke, and the battle was almost one-sided.

Compared with Mao Jue's fort cannon, the big barrel of the Japanese people is a big firecracker, but in the war of the Japanese people's own, it is still a big killing weapon, under the roar of heavy artillery fire, a corner of Iwayama Castle collapsed, and the entire residence of the daimyo, the women who ran away in a panic were everywhere, but no one came to scold them, reorganize the order, and fight until the afternoon, the old retainer of the Yoshikawa family who mentioned the location of the governor yesterday ran into the inner house in a panic, almost kneeling with a crying voice.

"Governor! The soldiers and horses of the Zong family have already broken through Honmaru! The retainers are resisting to the death!"

"Governor! After all, the Yoshikawa family is a Maori family! The Maori family governor is still reasonable, and I beg the head of the family to come forward and ask the Maori family for the sake of my Yoshikawa family! ”

"Pleading? I've already seen each other, what's the use of pleading? It's just that the defeat of the Yoshikawa family is more ugly. ”

I have to say that the Fuso race is greedy, cruel, vulgar, and arrogant, but the popularity of bushido for a long time, and the samurai's pursuit of heroic death, is also beautiful to the extent of perversion.

When a great samurai dies, he must always pass on his thoughts as verses, and then pursue the poignant death like the withering of cherry blossom petals.

"Two generations of enmity and enmity are repaid by blood, and I regret not being under the South Palace!"

The governor of the Yoshikawa family, who still didn't understand why the war to destroy the Yoshikawa family broke out, sighed with emotion, and then snorted with mockery.

"Maori two rivers! There are no more Maori rivers in the world! ”

The placket was untied, and in the stunned eyes of the old minister, the rib insert was slammed into the abdomen by Yoshikawa Nagamasa, and then it was violently raised in a muffled snort.

"Governor!"

With a crying voice, the old retainer reluctantly pulled out a long knife, and finally cut down this wrong mercy knife.

…………

In the evening, the Yoshikawa family, a period of glory, almost replaced the clan of the clan Yoshikawa family completely turned into history, because of the grudge, for this Maori family, the Maori samurai were ruthless, the entire city was destroyed in the fire, regardless of men, women and children, the Yoshikawa family's samurai retainers were almost completely killed, and the beheaded heads were probably no less than 5,000.

Even the scorched head of Yoshikawa Nagamasa, who was thrown into the fire in order not to be obtained by the enemy, was turned out.

It's just that the Maori head of the Maori family, who implements the right of the family governor and conducts the first inspection, doesn't have the slightest joy of victory, but wants to cry in his heart.

As a head of the family, he knows in his heart, indeed, after the Maori family got rid of the Yoshikawa family, it was since the death of the Maori family, within a few decades, unprecedented unity, the Maori family in this state is terrible, but the shogunate at this time is even more terrible, the current Tokugawa family is sitting on a territory of millions of stones, more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and there is more righteousness to mobilize the princes of the world, even if the Toyotomi family, who has also served as the world, has fallen under the hands of the old fox of Tokugawa, what does the Maori family take to compete with the entire Fuso?

But this is the case, there is no turning back, looking at the retainers and samurai who are full of bright red hands, but their eyes are red, and they are excited, holding the scorched head of Yoshikawa Nagamasa, Mao Li Xiu also had to let out an angry roar.

"Every year, you ask the governor of the family, is it okay for the lord? Today, the governor of the house will tell you, the curtain is down, today! More than ten years ago, Tokugawa Ieyasu defeated the Mori family with a conspiracy and took our land with fear, and today, the Mori family will take it back with blood!"

"Shangluo, march!"

The beastly cry shook the entire Iwayama country with the roar of thousands of troops, and on the high rock mountain, which was only a few hundred meters away from the mountain city, Inoue Teng also put down his hat with satisfaction, covering his cruel triangular eyes.

"It's okay, the Maori family has taken the bait and sent a report to the general!"
