Chapter 816: Shangluo Thoughts
This time, Ashikaga Yoshiteru's envoy, Nakato Nobuhide, brought not only the shogunate's appointment letter to Masarashi, but also the appointment letter of the Gongfang Imperial Court, which the emperor represented.
Here, I would like to praise the local government of the Luo family stationed in Kyoto and Sakai Town. When he was received by Ashikaga Yoshiteru, and learned that Ashikaga Yoshiteru intended to vigorously win over his family, he immediately sent Ashikaga Yoshiteru 100 taels of gold as a donation, and then sent 50 amounts of gold to the emperor, and at the same time asked many ministers.
So under the instigation of the Kyoto ministers such as Nakagomon Nobuhide, Konoe Maehisa, and Kyogoku Takayoshi, Emperor Nara also felt that the Luo family was indeed a good name for the public side (at least when there was no money and food in the emperor several times, the Luo family helped them in time), besides, in the past, when it was glorious, the emperor and the shogunate did have a mutual restraint, but now after all, it is no longer the time for the glory of the past, and even the government and the shogunate have become brothers and sisters who have no money and no food and even want to flee. So after Ashikaga Yoshiteru came forward to help speak, Emperor Nara took decisive action and rewarded Masarashi himself and even his retainers with official positions.
It turns out that the official positions that Zhengliang has already held are repair doctors from the fourth; is the fifth on the big zai and the second son; From the five positions on the fat back guard; From the five positions under the fat front guard, built back guard. This time, the public side will be from the four under the Dazai Dazai; From the five under the Tsukumae Shou, Feng Qian Shou, Feng Hou Shou; The official positions of Iki Mamoru and Tsushima Mamoru on the seventh rank were appointed to Masayo in one go.
Masarashi was originally the official position of Dazai Shaoji on the fifth rank was rewarded to Togo Heiji, and at the same time, Togo Heiji also served as a repair Liang from the fifth position. Kakukuma Ishizong was appointed as the middle minister from the top five. Kinoshita Masanaka was also promoted from the military department under the sixth position to the military department from the fifth position. His original position as the head of the military department was rewarded to Isono Yuanchang. Yoshida Shigemasa was promoted from the criminal department under the sixth position to the criminal department junior assistant from the fifth position. His original position as a Dacheng of the Criminal Department was rewarded to Aguta. Kansuke Yamamoto and Shinnosuke Akabane were appointed as the Dazai Eunuch under the Sho 5 and the Dazai Sho from the 5th rank respectively.
The reason why the public gave these positions was rewarded. On the one hand, almost all of the areas involved in these official positions are controlled by the Luo family, and the public side is just doing a favor at this time, and on the other hand, it is due to the fact that Yi Shenglong urgently sent people back to Kyushu to consult the opinions of the national government, and then went through some operations.
Dazaifu is the government department that governs the Kyushu region (corresponding to the shogunate's Kyushu exploration), and is responsible for all government affairs in Kyushu, including defense and foreign affairs. The prince is appointed as an honorary commander, and the eldest is the substantive chief. Since the right minister Sugawara Michizane, the Dazaifu Marshal has been the post of exile and left transfer as a minister. Chikuzen guards the Muto clan since Kamakura. Generations and the young two family jointly served as Dazai and the young two. Later, Yoshitaka Ouchi, who was fighting with the Shoji family, ruled Kitakyushu in order to seek legitimacy, and applied to the imperial court for permission to take the throne of Dazai Daiji. Now with the killing of Yoshitaka Ouchi, Masarashi naturally hopes to get the position of Dazai Daiji in his hands. The results have finally been achieved.
After this operation, the Luo family also obtained the official position of Dazaifu and the position of Kyushu Exploration Question, which represented the rationality of local rule in Kyushu. In addition, the acquisition of Ma Shou's official position also surprised Zhengliang. When he applied for this official position, Masashi actually didn't have much hope, after all, Tsushima Island was not the ruling territory of the Luo family at this time. I didn't expect the public side to be so happy this time, and it was really rewarded. This made Masahiro immediately have the righteousness to put pressure on Tsushima and even use force.
Of course. Since the shogunate and the imperial court have rewarded the Luo family so much this time, the Luo family naturally has to show something. In addition to continuing to instruct the public stationed in Kyoto to give a grant of 1,000 yuan to the shogunate and the emperor, he also had to reply to Ashikaga Yoshiteru's invitation to Kamirakin as soon as possible, after all, the reason why the Luo family's application for official positions and services was approved this time was inseparable from the help of the shogun.
Of course, Masarashi can't be hot-headed and immediately respond to Ashikaga Yoshiteru's call to go to Luo. After all, this time Shangluo is not the first two times when Masayo only brought some entourage to secretly enter Kyoto's political Shangluo, but with a large number of troops, under the banner of the Luo family, he went to Luoluo militarily with great fanfare. If Shangluo succeeds this time, Zhengliang will really become a person in the world.
At this time, if it is really militarily Luo, then there are five roads in front of Zhengliang.
The first is by water, starting from the Bungo Suido, passing through Sukumo Bay, Tosa Bay, Kii Suido, and Settsu Bay along the coast of Shikoku, passing through Sakai Town, and then heading to Kyoto.
The second is the road where land and water meet. It is still a starting point from the Bungo Waterway, then landing from Shikoku, and arriving at the Tanro Waterway by land in Iyu Province and Sanuki Province, and then landing in Sakaicho via Settsu Bay and going to Kyoto, or landing in Settsu Province.
The third is by water. From Shubo Nada, pass through the Seto Inland Sea, Harima Nada, Tanji Suido, and Settsu Bay, and disembark via Sakai Town before heading to Kyoto.
The fourth is entirely overland. Starting from Nagato Province on the island of this week, it follows Shubo Province, Aki Province, Bigo Province, Bichugoku Province, Bizen Province, Harima Province, Settsu Province, and finally Kyoto, where Yamashiro Province is located.
The fifth is also entirely overland. It also starts from Nagato Province, passes through Iwami Province, Izumo Province, Hakuki Province, Inaba Province, Tajima Province, Tanba Province, and finally enters Kyoto, where Yamashiro Province is located.
Of the five paths, the fifth path is naturally the farthest one, and it is not easy to face powerful daimyo such as the Niko family along the way. These local heroes and powerful names may not allow the Luo family's army to pass calmly, even the Nizi family, which is an ally of the Luo family, will not watch the Luo family's Shangluo succeed, especially the successful Shangluo from its territory, in the eyes of Nizi Qingjiu, this is definitely a slap in the face. And with such a long and long road, how to ensure the logistics along the way is a huge problem.
The first three roads that are relatively convenient are inevitably to face the three good homes that are just like the sky. After the Great War with Hosokawa Harumoto, Miyoshi Nagakei not only took advantage of the situation to annex most of the Hosokawa family's territory near Kyoto's Kinki, but at the same time, in the Shikoku region, Miyoshi Nagakei's younger brothers have also launched actions one after another, cooperating with his brother's actions in Kinki, and began to establish a stable rear for Miyoshi Nagakei in the Shikoku region. The most typical situation is that just some time ago, the family governor of the Shikawa family, Shikawa Ichicun (the fourth brother of Miyoshi Chokei), who had completely controlled the Sanki country in the Shikoku region, sent troops to help his second brother Miyoshi Yoshiken, and assassinated Awa guarding Hosokawa Mochitaka at the Mikanji Temple under Katsurui Castle, and established Hosokawa Mochitaka's son Hosokawa Mayuki who had not yet been in Motofu as the family governor, after which the Awa Hosokawa family existed in name only, and the Awa country also completely fell into the hands of the Miyoshi family.
At this time, Miyoshi Chokei controlled the region of Kyoto, his second brother Miyoshi Yoshiken controlled the Awa Province of Shikoku, his third brother Ataka Fuyasu controlled the Awaji Suido, and his fourth brother controlled the Sanki Province of Shikoku. The four brothers united to form the largest territory of the Miyoshi family. If the Luo family were to go to Luo from the previous three roads, whether they took the land route of Shikoku or the waterway along the coast of Shikoku, they would inevitably be confronted by the Miyoshi family. And the Luo family's military Shangluo will inevitably have an impact on the situation of the Miyoshi family gradually controlling the shogunate and the imperial court, and the Miyoshi family will naturally not let the Luo family succeed in Shangluo. When the time comes, there will be a big war between the two families.
And the fourth land route from Zhou Fangguo to Shangluo, there are also hard bones such as the Maori family along the way, which is also not easy to walk. What's more, at this time, there was also the clan of Tsushima Island to the west of the Luo family, Shikoku with a complicated situation to the east, the Ouchi family, the Niko family, and the Mori family to the north, and the south to the south, which was also complicated, was the southern Kyushu region, which was also complicated. These areas are all destabilizing factors that hinder the Luo family's Shangluo. Therefore, even if Zhengliang intends to take Los Angeles militarily, he must stabilize some unstable factors.
