A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

After hearing the news, Xiaoping stood up in horror, sweating all over, and the slight alcoholism in his body immediately dissipated completely.

Yamauchi Yoshiharu, Yamauchi Yoshiharu, how could you be so stupid and lend Tao to Imagawa Yoshimoto. Now that Imagawa Yoshimoto has overthrown the Mikawa Kira clan, it will take less than a year or two to consolidate the long-dispersed hearts of the Mikawa clan, which is equivalent to a sudden increase in territory of 70,000 to 80,000 gu.

And what is the fighting power of Sanhe Zhong? To be fair, since the Onin Civilization Chaos, almost every branch has been at war, but where is it 100% sure that wars are going on every year? That's right, it's the Three Rivers Kingdom and the people in the country.

Starting from the Kirara Manchu clan in Zhaoji, Mikawa Fengguo went to Luo and Beijing for many years, fighting foreign wars abroad and civil war at home. There is not a year that goes by without a bad fight. He has seen every scene, and his combat effectiveness is at least above the average level.

Imagawa Yoshimoto himself can raise an army of more than 18,000 people. Now with the help of Mikawa Fongzhong, an army of 35,000 people is at his fingertips. With this strength, it is possible for Shangluo to conquer the world.

According to Koheita's observation and understanding, given Imagawa Yoshimoto's character and ambition, if Imagawa Yoshimoto wins Long, he will definitely look to Shu, Mikawa will be pacified, and he may go to Owari one day. Owari's 100,000-gun is a big fat piece of meat. Owari's Oda Nobunaga has always been called "Owari's big fool". Who wouldn't take a bite of it if there is a chance?

If Imagawa Yoshimoto went to Owari, this idiot would knock him over with a single attack, and the entire Kaidou would be over. Mikawa is newly dependent, and the people of Yuejiang are powerful, and Suruga's retainers will take advantage of the suspicion of the young country to cause riots.

On the surface, it may seem that if a big boss rises up to unify Kaidou, they can acquire a huge territory of 300,000 guan in an instant. This may be an opportunity for the Yamauchi family. But think about how long it took a certain turtle to seize the territory of Kaidou. Among the entangled forces of the Ichikai clan, the powerful forces of the country, and the eyeing Kai Takeda Harunobu, which one is easier to get along with?

Well, even if he was capable, he suppressed the Yuan River and the Three Rivers, unified the two countries, and had a fierce battle with the tiger who occupied Suruga, and finally won miserably. Haolai holds the sea in his hand, spends another three years raising soldiers, hoarding food and grass, and then raises his head to see the world.

The one who quelled the chaos on the Kailuo Road would only find that Owari's heroes Oda Nobunaga and Mino had been defeated. At that time, he gathered the economic and military power of the Noo Plain, 30,000 to 50,000 troops, and spent a year Money and food are at your fingertips, but who will belong to the world is hard to say.

"No, I have to return home quickly." Xiao Pingtai immediately made a decision.

I sent Sukezaemon off, packed my luggage overnight, and told my three followers to go to bed quickly, and get back to Ejiri on the scheduled return ship tomorrow morning.

The next day, I took Sukezaemon's face and dozens of money and packed it on a boat back to Ejiri and Sunfu. I sailed smoothly to Minami-Ise, and then continued on the boat back to Ejiri without stopping.

When we arrived at Ejiri, it was exactly as Koheita expected. As soon as we saw it, we saw teams of high-spirited Imagawa soldiers heading towards Suruga with their bags full of gains.

Koheita hurriedly went into the city to find Ejiri Castle, and Isshiki Palace Assistant, a member of the Imperial Household family, learned about the situation. Just by asking a little bit, all the information will be clear.

After the Odawara War, Imagawa Yoshimoto also considered preparing to marry the Yamauchi family. Originally, Yamauchi Yoshiharu's five-year-old daughter was also very suitable, but the Imagawa family was really too young to wait ten years. The other son, Imagawa Uzuki, is the son of Hojo Ujiyasu. Apart from being a little careful about getting him back, he also wanted to keep Hojo Soun as his heir and not to reuse him.

Later, Imagawa Yoshimoto found out that Yamauchi Yoshiharu had a younger son, and immediately engaged him and his daughter to Yamauchi Saburo Goro. Although the two children were still young (early ten years old), it did not hinder their father's decision their marriage.

Now the Yamauchi clan and the Imagawa clan have established a formal offensive and defensive alliance. They are related by marriage, and there is cooperation between the two parties. The foundation of trust is already there. So the borrowing was finally accepted happily. Of course, Yamauchi Yoshiharu also guarded Futamata Castle.

Then Imagawa Yoshimoto set out from Suruga Fuchu Castle with 13,000 people, and beat the Mikawa Kira clan on the head without hesitation. Kira Yoshiyao is not a white man, he is a member of the Ashikaga Imperial Family, one of the most upright and prestigious families in the world. Although the Kira family is also divided into two families, Tojo and Saijo, and they fight each other during internal strife, but they are still united even if they have foreign enemies.

This is a common problem among people. When there are no external troubles, it is considered good to share the same bed with different dreams, it is normal to be at war with the same room, and it is not impossible to die together. But once there is a foreign enemy, the two people who were originally at war with each other will undoubtedly work together to help each other.

This is also the reason why Wei Wu took Hebei Dingwuwan, and Yuan Shao died and all his sons fought for the throne. If Cao Cao rushes to attack Hebei, no matter how stupid Yuan Shao's idiot sons are, they know how to beat Cao Cao back first before causing internal strife in their own families. Hebei's meat will definitely rot in the Yuan family's pot. But Cao Cao withdrew his troops and stopped attacking Hebei. This thing, what a guy! Yuan Tan gathered the people from Qingzhou and went to Jizhou to fight his good brother, which fulfilled Cao Cao's wish.

Encountering a foreign enemy, the people of Mikawa, who were originally fighting to the death, immediately shook hands and made peace with the outside world under the greeting of Kira Yoshiyao. Then the thirty-two families of Sanhe Fenggong Shangfanzhong arrived with a shout. Seven thousand people occupied the advantageous terrain of Bamian Mountain and lined up against the mountain with the city behind. Originally, they had enough combat experience, and it was a home battle, so they fought vigorously.

On the other hand, Imagawa Yoshimoto's side was preceded by a cross-border labor expedition, and secondly, the grain and grass reserves were insufficient because the autumn harvest had not yet arrived. Facing the united Mikawa Allied Forces under threat, Imagawa Yoshimoto's 13,000 men were unable to do anything for the time being.

Imagawa Yoshimoto, who was unable to make progress in the frontal battle, listened to the advice of his teacher Taiyuan Zen Master and lobbied several of the three ministers with large sums of money. As a result, there was indeed a traitor in Mikawa, and Nishi Mikawa General Uden Nagateru finally led to Imagawa. Yiyuan, defected before the battle. The three armies of the Kira clan were greatly defeated. From Yoshiyao Kira on down, many important ministers of the clan including the Okouchi clan, the Isshiki clan, the Arakawa clan, and the Okayama clan died in the battle. The Kira clan was almost completely exterminated, and many of the public samurai families in Mikawa also suffered devastating casualties like being cut in half.

As for the 1,600 casualties, it was nothing.

Imagawa Yoshimoto successfully fought his way to Saijo Castle, and then kidnapped the last son of the Kira clan, Kira Yoshian, and went to Suruga. Then, in the name of Kira Yoshian, Taiyuan Xuezhai Zen Master unified the Mikawa clan and was completely officialized. The process of nationalization of the Three Rivers Territory.
