Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
As the rumors spread, the five thousand elders began to hesitate. Niko Haruhisa began to get anxious, originally thinking that with 8,000 Izumo and 5,000 Lords, he could easily deal with the ragtag army of the Date family. Where did I think that a trivial peach-colored incident caused a crowd brawl that caused the Bo Qi people to die and the fox to die, coupled with the tandem of people with a heart, it quickly made most of the Bo Qi people hesitate. Even if Niko Haruhisa wanted to force them to go on a mission, even if he had to carry it out due to Niko Haruhisa's deterrence, the execution would be greatly reduced.
Under such circumstances, Niko Haruhisa understood that if all the 8,000 Izumo people were dispatched, although he was confident that he would be able to defeat the Tada family's ragtag army, the casualties would inevitably increase, and once the Izumo people suffered a large number of casualties, the Boqi people would be unable to suppress if they were unstable. In the decisive battle with Date Zhengheng, his odds of winning have been reduced from 10% to 50%.
At the same time, the ninja group Lushita Group, who worked for Niko Haruhisa, was not idle, and soon detected the military deployment of the Date family, and the actions of the political balance were much faster than that of Niko Haruma, and the combat preparations were completed almost at the same time as the decisive battle was decided.
If the war were to start immediately, Niko Haruhisa was confident that with the 8,000 elite Izumo people, he would definitely be able to achieve the final victory, but the casualties would increase. In this case, after returning to Izumo Province, the only person who can rely on the Shinnomiya Party can rely on to compete with Iwami Kuni. His deep-seated purpose in going out to Beiqian was to increase his prestige and build a legion of his own, and too many casualties would be contrary to his original intention and future strategic goals.
It was impossible to expect Date Masahiro to delay the decisive battle, and Niko Haruhisa thought that he had to involve the Boqi in order to achieve the final victory. The combat effectiveness of the Bo Qi people is also counted among the Nizi army.
By fighting against the Ida's army, he decided to purge the Boqi people. In the case of the Izumo people's march degree has been sharply reduced. This kind of statement is even more noisy, and there is a big market in the Boqi army.
The country of Boqi is known as the country of mountains and mountains, due to geographical reasons are not suitable for agricultural production, the economy mainly depends on domestic iron ore mining, the local wealthy families are mostly composed of mine owners, the army is full of miners and farmers, the combat effectiveness and independence are very strong, and many acting officials are appointed during the reign of the Yamana clan. Unable to rule directly.
After the Niko clan expelled the Yamana clan, the jurisdiction of the Boqi Kingdom fell on the Shingu Party, which had the strongest combat effectiveness, and the Shingu Party formed its own set in the Boqi country through marriage. In the past, the Bo Qi people led by the Xingong Party made great achievements, and Nizi Haruhisa took advantage of the expedition to prepare for the former country, while ordering the Shingu Party to go to Iwami Province, and on the other hand, asking the Bo Qi people to follow him on the expedition, so as to take the opportunity to install cronies in the army, at least a few handfuls of sand into it.
At the beginning, the Shingu Party was an elite group composed of the pro-guards of the Nizi clan, and the number of personnel was not very large. With Niko Kunihisa in charge of the Shingu Party, this kind of war is like. After the large-scale expansion, more and more generals who were originally loyal to the Niko clan were eliminated, and the generals who were loyal to the Niko Kuniku clan were flooded within.
History records that Nizi Qingjiu's suppression of the Xingong Party seems to be a breeze, but in fact, it is not, and the final defeat of the Nizi clan is caused by Nizi Qingjiu's exhaustion of the strength of loyalty to his family and his distrust of the former Shingu Party affiliated members. It seems that Nizi Haruhisa has won a lot of battles one after another after the suppression of the Xingong Party, and it seems that the overall situation has not been affected by the Xingong Party incident, but at the same time, the army loyal to the Zong family has been lost.
Most of the Bo Qi people have been invested in the command of the Xingong Party, and the attitude of the Bo Qi people is the same as the attitude of the Xingong Party, Nizi Qingjiu gradually became a little unbearable, he had been patient with the Xingong Party for a long time, and saw that even the Bo Qi people dared to throw their faces to show him.
I must clean up the dirt!
Niko Harujiu thought so, and as soon as this thought came to him, he immediately found a reason. Nizi Kunijiu was indulged in his long-lasting feelings for his father, Nizi, and was unable to extricate himself and lost his ability to make correct judgments. If this continues, it will only sow a bane, and eventually lead the Nizi clan to extinction. Everyone knows that Niko Haruma's grandfather, Niko, is as famous as Hojo Sakumo and Saito Michizo for his legendary experience in the next gram. Niko Haruma suddenly thought of another uncle, Shioye Xingjiu, maybe Niko Kunihisa would raise the anti-flag like his younger brother. He didn't know that behind his decision, there was a jealousy of the ability of the Niko Kunihisa family. Since the defeat of the Battle of Aki Gunshan and the death of Nizi Sujiu, Nizi Haruhisa has always been misunderstood as a mediocre master.
In this bloody and troubled era, it is no longer surprising that flesh and blood kill each other, in order to survive, all kinds of strategies are needed, in this sense, whether it is the people who run for firewood, rice, oil and salt all day long, or the high daimyo, there is no difference, all at the same time to survive in this unprecedented troubled times.
Believing that the only way to survive is to concentrate all the power of the Nizi clan, the survival of the Shingu Party has become an obstacle to the survival of the Nizi clan. If he wants to control all the forces in his family, the Xingong Party will inevitably wield a knife at him.
How to get rid of the Shingong Party gradually took shape in Nizi Qingjiu's heart, but it was useless for the decisive battle in front of him that determined the direction of Shanyang Dao, and now how to mobilize the Bo Qi people is the most important, and the Bo Qi people are so ignorant of the current affairs and disobey his wishes, he really has the idea of sending the Bo Qi people to death as a substitute for the dead ghost.
In Izumo Niko Haruhisa is often called a mediocre master, in fact, he is not as mediocre as he seems on the surface, the distorted times have formed a distorted psychology, and the people who can survive the troubled times of the Warring States are not pure and honest, and the fool has long been eliminated by the times.
Gradually, a plan came to mind, and Nizi Qing smiled gloomily, and said to the shadows around him: "Shi Nian, come out!" "Shi Niannai is the leader of the Nizi Clan's spy force. During the Chengping period, Ping Jiangmen rebelled, and his ancestor Fan Mu Lu clan's patriarch Fan Mu Lu Shinian participated in this battle, and Ping Jiangmen died in the third year of Tianqing, and Fan Mu Lu Shinian was martyred. His eldest son formed the Bowl House Sect in the San'in area, and later played an indispensable role in Nizi's long-lasting road to the next Ke, so he became the spy unit of the Nizi clan, and its brain figures are collectively called Shi Nian; The other group was led by the second son of Lu Shinian, the mother of rice, who went to Kanto to form the Wind Demon Clan. The two branches that belonged to the same Fan Mu Lu clan were in the limelight for a while, but they both disappeared with the demise of the main family.
Shi Nian is not as fierce as the legend says, in fact, he is just a little old man who is less than 1.50 meters tall, and even if he walks on the street, he will only think of him as a farmer and not a ninja. Whenever he saw Shi Nian appear beside him without a trace, Nizi Qingjiu felt a sense of powerlessness, but he knew the importance of the little old man in front of him, without his information, Nizi Qingjiu would become a blind and a deaf person.
Niko Haruhisa looked up at the sky and said, "Have you seen the whereabouts of Date Ko'er?" ”
Of course, Shi Nian knew that what Niko Haruhisa was asking was not Katagami Moricho and the others who went to Kamiren Bao Castle, nor would it be Date Masaki who was still in Ryonomiya Mountain Castle, what he wanted to ask was the ninja assassin of the Date family who had infiltrated the Nizi army, and replied: "Yes, it is the ninjas of the Kusama people, a total of three groups, each group of three, who had been hidden in the mountain village before the arrival of the army, and had infiltrated the army a few days ago. ”
Nizi Qingjiu frowned slightly, her face turned red, as if she was a little angry, and said, "It turns out that it is really Date Xiaoer's trick?" ”
Although Shi Nian had some other suspicions, he didn't say it, but paused slightly, and said, "The Luxia Group has launched a surveillance on them, do you want to eradicate them?" ”
Niko Qingjiu shook her head and said, "No need, their mission has been completed, even if they are eradicated, it will only make Date Boy laugh at our incompetence." "Niko Haruma obviously blames the rumors in the shogun on the head of the Kusama people, which is obviously a misunderstanding, but it is also a good scapegoat for the real culprit.
In order to quell the rumors spread in the army, Niko Haruha found the original parties Genshiro Yoshida and Maki Hideyuki in a very high-profile manner.
He severely punished Genshiro Yoshida in front of many people, not only reduced Genshiro's territory by half, but also imprisoned him, and at the same time promoted Maki Hideyuki, and ordered Maki Hideyuki to go to Ryonomiya Yama Castle with a letter from Niko Haruma to give Date Masahiro an ultimatum before the battle. Niko Haruma's behavior was obviously uneasy and kind, but Maki Hideyuki, who had already been dazed, took three knights as if they were a strong man and never returned.
Maki Hideyuki and his party went out overnight and came to the mountain pass, and in order not to be attacked by the defenders of Kamiinpo Castle, they used the banner of the Niko clan and galloped over the edge of Kamiinbo Castle like a wind, shouting, "We are messengers with urgent matters. Please meet Ida-sama. ”
Kamihito Hojo Castle and Ryonomiya Castle were both plains, and they were soon surrounded by a group of samurai who were guarding Ryonomiya Yama Castle and pulled down from their horses. Maki Hideyuki and his party were brought into the city, and soon they met the legendary young hero, Date Masahiro, who was sitting on a stool.
Without waiting for Maki Xiuxing to speak, a person next to him handed over a letter and a box and said, "This is a letter and a box of gifts from my father-in-law!" ”
Date Masahiro took the letter, what was written on it was a letter of persuasion, which was sarcastic, every word was heart-wrenching, but there was nothing new to say, and after reading it, he smiled slightly and handed the letter to Hagiwara Takashin beside him, and said: "Read it to everyone!" ”
After speaking, he ordered someone to open the wooden box, and inside it was a level, a woman's level, with two Chinese characters on it, Nana.
Date Zhengheng's face changed drastically, and he said hatefully: "Abominable old thief, I swear to kill you!" "It turns out that this woman called Nana is the eldest sister of Date Masahiro, who was married to the eldest son of Shinmi Sadatsune when Masahiro was young, and his whereabouts are unknown after Niimi Sadatsune fled, and he searched for it in many ways to no avail, and he didn't expect that meeting again would be yin and yang.
