Non-Honmaru Inner Honwan [Comprehensive]

After the matter of going to court came to an end, Saburo soon held a horse parade in Kyoto and invited the emperor to participate.

This time the invitation was not done by Mitsuhide Akechi, so naturally there was a strong sense of rudeness unique to Saburo.However, even the emperor's expenses were provided by the Oda family, so naturally there is not much confidence to blame—although the outside world believes that Oda Nobunaga at least has a respectful attitude towards the emperor, but Emperor Masakimachi is sensitively aware that for Saburo , His status and blood origin are not enough to make him a special case in Saburo's heart.Oda Nobunaga (Saburo) never humiliated him or ignored his request, probably not because of his identity, but because of Oda Nobunaga's personal qualities.

But this is another view in the eyes of court officials—seeing Saburo's hasty invitation, they thought "it's still the same" because of this familiar style, and at the same time couldn't help but think of the previous Did Chaoshi ever offend Oda Nobunaga? Did Nobunaga, who seemed calm and polite at the time, write them down behind his back? I just forgot), and the officials who complimented Nobunaga at the time and said that they were tasting swords were called by Oda Nobunaga to come with swords (Akechi Mitsuhide mentioned it to Saburo when he summarized the experience of going to court that day), and he was frightened and sick ...

...Oda Nobunaga's thoughts are really hard for ordinary people to fathom!

So Akechi Mitsuhide and Saburo once again brought a critical blow to others without the knowledge of both parties.However, for the imperial court that has gradually gained more confidence because of the growing size of the Oda family, Akechi Mitsuhide and Saburo only let them see the reality again—rather they need to borrow the "righteousness" of the imperial court, and it is impossible for Oda and the imperial court It's a balanced ally relationship.

The horse reading this time is even more extravagant than during the New Year.Not only the cost incurred by the gathering of the vast majority of horses in the world in Kyoto, but also the temporary palace built for the emperor is decorated with gold and silver - the treatment of the emperor is so good, it can be seen that this horse parade has other aspects The cost of consumption has reached a staggering level.In addition, most of the Oda family's retainers who were still stuck with Maori were also recalled, so as to be the manpower for this horse parade.

If it is normal to watch, Saburo should be scolded as a prodigal son-there are only two equestrian competitions held in the first month, okay! !And those two games were not ordinary games! !

However, because of his deeper contact with political affairs-especially the wise Mitsuhide who did not advise and stop Saburo's dedication, the swordsman can still see one or two secrets from it.

First of all, Saburo is definitely not a person who is extravagant and extravagant.He traveled so far, although for aesthetic reasons, he likes clothing with bright colors and intricate patterns (such as Saburo's favorite red cape), but he himself does not pick clothes or food.He can put clothes on his body freely no matter what kind of material he wears (even without pants in the early days of time travel), and some complicated and heavy clothes will be disliked by him and affect his activities; but for the time traveler, the food in this era is single It's boring, and there's no need to be picky. Even if you go out on a date with Gui Die, Saburo can eat rice balls to fill your stomach.

The second is that Saburo is very purposeful-he knows better than anyone else what kind of path he is on.If he can still clearly set "unification of the world" as his goal, instead of complacently thinking that "the world is destined to fall into my hands", he will not do such blind and arrogant things as bringing the general back.The man with swords and swords gets along with Saburo day and night, and he knows that Saburo is still working hard to achieve his goals. Although the frequent appearances of Marseilles and Eagle Hunting in recent years are also of interest to Saburo, their importance cannot be compared with "struggling for world supremacy".

Finally, even if Saburo is not very sensitive to politics, he should know that such extravagance and waste are very bad when he is still fighting Maori.Strictly speaking, Saburo is not a person who does not listen to advice—he only accepts advice unless others have sufficient reasons to shake him.

Taken together, the men with swords can only draw one conclusion.

This is probably done to oppress Maori.

Compared with this world, the territory occupied by the Maori family is by no means small, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki joined their side.Although Ashikaga Yoshiaki was expelled from Beijing by Saburo, he was not deprived of his position as a general who conquered barbarians.The fallen general and the weak imperial court, the profound Maori and the flourishing Oda, if we look at the current situation, Oda and Maori will either fight a battle of mutual refusal and do our best; Nibble the territory of Maori little by little until it is all under his rule.

The former does not have a good time for the time being, and no matter the outcome, both sides will hurt their vitality; the latter takes too long, and Mao Li cannot sit still.

The men with swords and swords who knew the history early on naturally knew how the two families would develop in the future.But Oda and Mori, who are currently in the game, don't know about it—then, there is an explanation for Saburo's frequent visits to Luo.

Although Ashikaga Yoshiaki has the title of a general, it is only that title—the seat of the royal family is Kyoto, which is the most orthodox region in the world.Therefore, in addition to the two representatives of "orthodoxy" and "righteousness" of the imperial court and the general, Kyoto is actually a representative of "orthodox" by adding to the Japanese royal family.Oda Nobunaga has held large-scale events here several times in history, precisely to use the influence of the imperial court and Kyoto to determine his "orthodox" status.As for more luxurious and extravagant activities, if the Oda family’s taxes cannot afford it, then even if Saburo wants to hold it, Akechi Mitsuhide will not just watch him commit suicide—so, the current money of the Oda family is totally worthless. It is enough to support the Oda family's military expenses and the expenses of activities with Saburo at the same time.

This is different from when Saburo wanted to sell Atsuto Shiro in the early years—Saburo removed the customs office, separated soldiers from farmers, and set up a music market to encourage business. When he was a local daimyo, it could only make Oda Those who are richer can barely cope with multi-line operations.When his territory is getting bigger and bigger, and all the regions under his rule implement this policy, the benefits will be several times higher than when there is only one place.

In contrast, although the Maori family who still followed the previous policy could not be said to be not rich, they did not have the terrible taxes brought by the Oda family relying on businessmen.

Now in terms of "righteousness", the two sides are barely evenly matched, and in terms of "orthodoxy" the two are still somewhat unclear, but in terms of "financial resources", the Oda family has already shown too many advantages.Compared with morale, financial resources (military expenditure) are also an indispensable part of an army's march.

This is a grand challenge and coercion to Maori.

And after the Oda family showed such strong financial resources one after another, even if Saburo recalled many generals and daimyos to participate in the horse parade this time, Mori would not act rashly.The generals who are still on the front line can withstand the sudden attack of Maori, and Oda, who can throw a lot of money without blinking, is bluffing or really rich, and Maori dare not send them to the Oda army. If there is an opportunity, use your own territory and a large number of ashigaru to verify the amount of money the Oda family has earned in recent years.

The swordsman is not sure whether the Oda family retainers who have been keeping silent about this have also seen through the deep meaning of this, or whether they are just afraid of Saburo's majesty and dare not speak.They were not even sure whether Saburo would do this one after another, whether he really had political considerations in this regard and was then perfected by Akechi Mitsuhide, or simply realized that Oda had fallen into depression due to the rare and long-term stalemate, and simply Want to liven up the atmosphere (Saburo might really do that).

The only thing that can have anything to do with them is probably the time-traveling army that haunted this grand event, and they are just puppets without ego.

Speaking of which, because the horse parade held by Saburo is too grand and gorgeous, the participants are also dressed in gorgeous clothes, and the clothes are either tattered or simple, and you can find them at a glance!

Never has it been so easy!

After this gorgeous horse parade ended, because the palace still wanted to see it, Saburo held another horse parade in March.However, no matter what Saburo really meant, the Mori family remained motionless.On the contrary, in late March, Uesugi Kagekatsu, who finally quelled the civil strife and became the governor of the Uesugi family, launched an attack on Etsuchu—oh, of course, after the civil strife in the Uesugi family was seriously injured, this kind of small temptation was quickly taken by the Oda family. repel.

But at this time in history, Tokugawa Ieyasu starved to death most of the Takeda army in the city by besieging Takatenjin City. As a result, Takeda Katsuyori's reputation was greatly damaged, and the retainers of Takeda Yimen also began to rebel.

But in fact, this time, Gaotian Shencheng is still supporting.

There is no need to hesitate, and the inference can be made by cutting the Hasebe.

"—I'm afraid it's time retrograde army again."

I figured it out, this should be the last time before Honnoji met the time-traveling army.

And this time the actions of the time retrograde army have changed again. (Sigh) Don't doubt it, it's really a preparation for the follow-up ending.Although there are dozens or hundreds of chapters before the ending.

This is the second battle of Gaotian Shencheng. The name given in Nobunaga's records is to starve and kill the enemy of Gaotian Shencheng.To be honest, it was miserable.
