When the territory of Tango Province was in flames, the Honganji Temple that Isshiki Yoshiyuki and Yoshido father and son were looking forward to finally ended the intrigue and divided the cake left by Shimoma Yoriren and Suzuki Shigehide after their deaths, and Shimoma Yorishi became the biggest victor as a matter of course, although he did not come out of his own heart, and after getting enough military power, he also lost the trust of Honganji Xianru, Honda Masanobu and Bee Suga Koroku did not retire and became important subordinates under Shimoma Yorisho.

Shimoma Yorisho carved up most of the rights left by Shimoma Yori, and the same Honda Masanobu embarked on a journey by blackmail, and both of them became the most trusted people of their masters in the eyes of outsiders, and there was no one, and the parties knew that this was not the case. Honganji Xianru has always thought that Shimoma Yoriyoshi's death is very strange, and Shimoma Yorizhao is also worried about Honda Masanobu's blackmail, but in the case of Honganji Xianru's distrust, Honda Masanbu and Wasuka Koroku have a good life.

Both Shimoma Yorisho and Honda Masanobu have their own interests, and if they want to realize their own interests, they must keep Honganji standing, achieve victory in Kinai as soon as possible, and then turn around and deal with the increasingly powerful Date family regime, which is what they have in common.

Although Yorisho Shimoma didn't trust Honda Masanobu, he quickly found out when he looked around. With the death of Shigehide Suzuki, he also lost the support of Saga Zhong. Kawachi Province let Hatakeyama Takamasa, the moth that infiltrated Honganji Temple, steal it, although he is still nominally the chief leader of Kawachi Province, but the gang of Hao people who will fight have thrown themselves under the command of Hatakeyama Takamasa. The remnants of the Miyoshi family, led by Matsunaga Hides and the Miyoshi trio, made peace directly with Ashikaga Yoshiaki, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki directly took refuge in Honganji Temple. Honganji appeared to be distrustful of Shimoma Yorisho, and went around in a circle. In the end, Yoshira had to find Honda Masanobu to ask about countermeasures. This is also the reason why Honda Masanobu ate the next Raisho.

The road in front of Honganji Temple is narrow. Yes. It's very narrow, and it looks like the Honganji Temple is in full swing, but smart people can see that the Date family is like a knife hanging over the head and doesn't know when it will be cut down, although the relationship between the two families has not yet been broken.

Shimoma Yorizhao nominally ruled over the three kingdoms of Hanoi, Izumi, and Kii, which was similar to the original Shimoma Yorien's authority. But everyone knows that the actual rights of the two are very different, and Shimoma Yoriren has the support of Shigehide Suzuki, plus the town of Izumi Kai was burned to ashes by Miyoshi Minoru. In addition to the remnants of the wealthy merchants who fled to various places, the remaining people were all supporters of Shimoma Lai Lien, although the battle of Hanoi was defeated badly, but Shimoma Lai Lien soon made a comeback, and the people of the wealthy countries in Hanoi were also in awe of Shimoma Lai Liem.

In normal times, the leaders of Kii, Izumi, and Hanoi have always done their own thing, and when they had no food to eat, they thought of Shimoma Yorizhao, the general general, which was another reason why Shimoma Yoshiru sought out Honda Masanobu to find a new source of food.

Honda Masanobu and Bee Suga Xiaoliu can be said to be inseparable from Meng, and when Lai Zhao saw that the two of them arrived at the same time, he scolded in his heart, "It's another pair of lovers." It seems that Honda Yahachiro should be affected, and the black big man of Wasuka Koroku is attacking. ”

It's just a matter of urgency. Shimoma Lai Zhao threw out the ugly thoughts of Wasuka Koroku sitting on Honda Masanobu in his mind, and quickly asked the most important question now, what should be the next step in Honganji's business, and where to attack.

Honda Masanshin had already thought of countermeasures before he came, in fact, in addition to the team that trained him this year, he was planning the next move, he originally wanted to propose to Honma Masanobu to do it in March, but he never thought that Shimoma Shoren died, and the internal struggle for his military power within Honganji Temple was so cruel and excessive, before the winner was divided, where could Honda Masanobu, who was a junior and shallow, speak, even if it was Shimoma Shosho, he couldn't take care of Honda Masanobu's mouth.

Honda Masanobu looked at Shimoma Yoriteru and suddenly asked, "Chikugo Hohashi, do you want to fight for real power, instead of letting the Miyoshi remnants led by Kii Saga, Kawachi Hatakeyama Takamasa, and Matsunaga Shu wander out of power like now." ”

Shimoma Yorisho has become accustomed to Honda Masanobu's unreasonable titles, or was taken aback by his bold ideas, who doesn't want more power, he has lost the trust of Honganji Xianru, if he doesn't master more military power, I'm afraid I don't know when Honganji Xianru will be deprived of the remaining military power. He glanced at Honda Masanobu with a fake look, and said, "Tell me about any plans, if it is beneficial to the great cause of Honganji, I will consider it carefully." ”

Honda Masanobu knew that Shimoma Yoshiteru was moved, and he pondered for a moment, and when Shimoma Yoshira was a little impatient, he said: "I know that Chikugo Tsukigo Bridge doesn't trust me, but you and I can be said to be a community of interests that both prosper and lose, once the adult loses power, my descendants as an adult will soon lose everything, and the adult can still save his life, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to save my life at that time, so please trust me for the time being." ”

Shimoma Lai Zhao was very dissatisfied with Honda Masanobu's blackmailing of him from the bottom of his heart, but Honda Masanobu's words still moved him, and the two were indeed a community of interests in the eyes of outsiders, nodded and said, "Yahachiro, you can give me a good analysis and analysis." ”

Shimoma Yorisho's attitude was slightly better, Honda Masanobu clenched his fists, then let go, pointed a wooden stick to the ground and said: "Chikugo Hohashi-sama, this is the three kingdoms of Izumi, Kii, and Kawachi, and through Kawachi country, you can lead to the mountain city and the Yamato two countries. Hatakeyama Takamasa of Kawachi was originally the guardian of Kawachi and Kii, and in his heart he was dissatisfied with Honganji, but he just adapted to the situation, and now he has disobeyed the adults, and Kii's Saga people seem to be reluctant to send troops to help you fight the injustice since the death of Suzuki Shigehide. ”

Hearing that Honda Masanobu directly exposed the weakness of Shimoma Yorisho, Shimoma Yoshira gritted his teeth and scolded two sentences of Japanese scolding, completely forgetting that he should call "Nan no Amitabha" and looked at Honda Masanshin. Honda Masanobu continued: "If you want to make Hatakeyama Takamasa in Hanoi move, there is only profit, it is rumored that Hatakeyama Takamasa has a good relationship with the Koshichi clan in Yamato, if Hatakeyama Takamasa is allowed to attack Yamato Province to attack the city and plunder the land, Hatakeyama Takamasa will definitely be moved. At that time, it can be said that the movement of the song will show the troops to fight together. ”

Shimoma Lai Zhao was stunned. asked, "Why did Matsunaga Shu coordinate with the Yamato country?" ”

Honda Masatin replied: "Listen to the people of the remnants of the Miyoshi family. Miyoshi Chokei once intended to let Matsunaga Shu serve as the general of the Yamato Crusade Army, and also awarded Matsunaga Shu to become the guardian of Yamato country, and now Matsunaga Hide and Miyoshi Sanren and other Miyoshi Sanzhong and other Miyoshi remnants of the status is quite embarrassing, you must know that Settsu country has always been regarded by Honganji Temple as a Buddha country, Miyoshi remnants either go to Tamba country, or enter Yamato country, although Tanba country has Naito's internal response, but to meet the Date family. It is the wise who do not take it. ”

Shimoma Lai Zhaoyun bowed his head again and again, agreed with Honda Masa's trustworthy analysis, and finally asked rhetorically: "Even if Hatakeyama Takamasa, Matsunaga Shu and others attack Yamato Province at that time, they will not obey my command, and what are my vital interests." ”

Honda Masanobu said with a smile: "Hatakeyama Takamasa, Matsunaga Shu and others went to attack Yamato, so who will raise their food, not your lord, who will make you the general who has always been a general, food is an important weapon, and whoever listens to your command will be able to get food." Whoever is disobedient will have no food to come to. Not to mention. Once Hatakeyama Takamasa, Matsunaga Shu and others invade Yamato Province, for those hostile people, they will be one with us, and they will always launch an invasion of Yamato Province, which will make them make wrong analysis and judgment of the current situation. ”

Although Shimoma Lai Zhao is not a wise man, nor is he a mediocre person, he listened to Honda Masanobu's analysis, and showed some smiles on his face, yes, food is an important weapon, and now there is a shortage of food everywhere, he is nominally a general who has always been a general, and he is anxious in ordinary times, but if a war is launched, they will have to come to the door, and there will naturally be food if they listen to his command, and if they don't listen to his command, let him fend for himself. He nodded for Honda Masanobu to continue.

Honda Masanobu continued, "The opponent will think that we are going to capture Yamato Province, destroy the Southern Capital Rokuzong, isolate Mt. Hiei Enryakuji Temple, and then attack Kyoto with a thunderbolt, so when Hatakeyama Takamasa, Matsunaga Shu and others attack Yamato Province, it will inevitably attract a large number of enemies gathered in Kyoto and Omi to Yamato Province." ”

Shimoma Yoshin has some changes to Honda Masanobu, although he doesn't like this person very much, but it's still a little useful, and a thought suddenly welled up in his heart, Honda Masashi is going to use Hatakeyama Takamasa, Matsunaga Shu and others as bait to attract all the enemies to Yamato country, and then attack the empty Kyoto and Hiei Mountain.

Honda Masanobu said what was in the heart of Shimoma Yorisho, and said: "Hatakeyama Takamasa and Matsunaga Hide, and others have invaded Yamato, and the momentum must be great, and I am not afraid that they will not be fooled when the time comes, so that the sound will attack the east and the west to attack the mountain city country and break Mt. Hiei." At that time, the reputation of the adults will be in full swing, and even if the Hatakeyama Takamasa and Matsunaga Hides in the Yamato country want to disobey the yang and the yin, they will have to obey you. The one in the Ishiyama Imperial Palace can only pinch his nose and recognize your status, knowing that when the time comes, you will be the banner of resistance to Date Masaki. ”

Honda Masanobu said it lightly, and it made a lot of sense, so that Shimoma Yorisho had to sink in, but he still found a little loophole, and said: "To make a big noise, it is necessary to pour most of the Yamato country one by one, where is the strange army that I invaded Kyoto and won the final victory?" ”

Honda Masanobu pointed at himself, and then at Wasuka Koroku: "Chikugo-samashi, you have forgotten the two of us, and now the team of the two of us has reached 3,500 people, and most of the backbone members are believers from Mikawa, Ise and other places. ”

Shimoma Lai Zhao just gave the two of them a position in a thousand-person team, but he never thought that he would turn around and become a thousand-person team, that is, two thousand people, and then use his status as a close confidant of Shimoma Lai Zhao to ask for money and food, privately expand soldiers and horses, and most of them are devout disciples who dare to fight and kill.

Shimoma Yorisho was stunned, but he still agreed in principle to Honda Masanobu's plan, and it was quickly put into practice. Hatakeyama Takamasa is worried about food, he asked for food from Lai Zhao in the lower room, and Lai Zhao slapped his hands with both hands, asking for food is not a life, and he wants to grab the grain himself, and the Yamato country has grain.

Dead friends don't die in poverty, Hatakeyama Takamasa is right to think about it, but Hanoi has always been miserable, especially the battle of Gaoya Castle, coupled with the strong walls of the Miyoshi family, resulting in no harvest in Hanoi, the people are not living, and if they don't want to find a way to get food, they will have to go hungry. I'm afraid he will have to go into exile in another country, and he used to be able to run to Kii, but now Kiiko has also fallen into the hands of the same one, and there is nowhere to run if he wants to.

Hatakeyama Takamasa gave an order, and the nearly 100,000 people gathered in Kawachi Province immediately began to flock to Yamato Province. In fact, most of the so-called 100,000 people have been killed miserably, their fields have not been harvested, their homes have been burned to ashes, and they can only be coerced to loot one road to other countries, otherwise they will all starve to death in a few months, in fact, many old people and children have already starved to death.

As soon as Hatakeyama Takamasa acted, Matsunaga Hide, who stayed in Settsu, was also moved, Matsunaga Hide, who was a smart person, and smart people had the idea of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, and he knew that once Hatakeyama Takamasa invaded Yamato Province, it would be impossible for him to rest and recuperate. The way left for Matsunaga Shu is really limited, and going to Yamashiro is really looking for death, you must know that Honganji can launch a single one, and other religions can also launch a one, and there are at least 100,000 such believers gathered in Yamashiro in the country, and there are only two places left, Tamba and Yamato. The situation in Tango Province has already spread to Kinai, and if Honganji Shonaga is sent to Tanba Province to come back to his senses and send Matsunaga Shu to Tanba Province, then he must be prepared to face the Date family directly, and it is better to attack Yamashiro Province.

Matsunaga Hideki hurriedly discussed the countermeasures with the newly formed Miyoshi trio and then took tens of thousands of horses and horses to Hanoi and marched towards Yamato Province, and divided the Yamato country equally with Hatakeyama Takamasa, he knew very well that as long as he broke through the Yamato country, he would be able to attack Ise before and after the Wishing Temple on Ise Nagashima, and it was difficult to say that he might be able to open up a new world at that time. Even if Honganji can't stop the Date family's attack at that time, they will be able to sell it for a good price with the land in hand.

Honganji Xianru had just come back to his senses, but he found that Matsunaga Shu and Hatakeyama Takamasa had poured into Yamato Province, and the only men he had to use were the losers who carved up the power of Shimoma Yoriryo last time, such as Shimoma Yoriryō. Shimoma Yorito reappeared in the Ishiyama Honganji Temple, took Honda Masanshin's strategy for himself again, Lang Lang wounded, and sent Shimoma Yorilong, a Honganji subordinate, to Tamba Province to spread the glory of Honganji.
