-

He has reached the point of death with the emperor, and silence must make the worst plans. But before the upheaval of national change, he must eliminate the hidden dangers of his neighbors. If foreign enemies take advantage of the situation, he will be a sinner forever.

After years of practice, *** and the Southwest have become no disaster. What I am silent about is the Jurchens and ***. I have a set of strategies for Jurchens. I will not mention them for the time being. I will talk about *** here.

The blessing of Toyotoko Company is just like knowing the Age of Discovery. Simon also has a rough understanding of the Warring States history of this period. He not only knows the familiar names, but also knows some important historical events, such as after Toyotoko Hideyoshi ended the Warring States Period for more than a hundred years, the military strength was unprecedentedly strong. In order to find the next target for the huge war machine, Toyotoko Hideyoshi launched a war to invade Korea, trying to use North Korea as a pedal and eventually seize the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

No matter how I dislike this nation, the serious investment of the *** people in doing things is indeed worth learning. After years of careful preparation, Toyotomi Hideyoshi mobilized the whole country to build more than a thousand warships, hoarded enough food and grass for several years, and gathered 300,000 elite troops in a hundred battles. The purpose was to exert the strength of the whole country's army to fight quickly and control North Korea in a short period of time with strong troops.

The decaying Li Dynasty had no resistance in front of the invaders who were swaying in the claws. Soon the capital of Seoul fell, and then Kaicheng and Pyongyang fell one after another. In just two months and two days, all eighteen roads of the three capitals of North Korea fell, two princes were captured, and the King of North Korea Li Bing fled to the Yalu River... Finally, Li Rusong led an army of 80,000 to fight in North Korea, and took several years to drive the devils out of the sea.

If the Ming Dynasty army had not entered North Korea in time to fight and expel the Japanese invaders, *** would have been able to gain a foothold in North Korea and continue to operate for a long time, which has been proven three hundred years later.

Although the Ming Dynasty at that time had already revealed signs of the end of the world, internal affairs and border affairs were relatively stable. Taicang still had grain, treasury and silver had not been exhausted, and the supply of military pay and firearms was still timely. People living in the empire seemed that the Ming Dynasty was far from worrying, so they gritted their teeth and sent large troops to help North Korea expel the invaders. However, history had changed, and silence replaced Zhang Juzheng and dominated the reforms since Wanli. Unlike Zhang Juzheng's purpose of maintaining the stability of Zhu Ming's country, the purpose of silence was to nurture a new order, so it inevitably brought chaos, or even major chaos.

If you walk on this road, you can't stop. Even if you want to stop, the people around you will not agree, and the growing industrial and commercial class will not agree. There is a sea of ​​swords and fire ahead, so you can only walk on the ground. As for the consequences of continuing, Silence has become aware of the consequences of continuing, and he must minimize the damage to the country and the people. If you take advantage of the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty and occupy the bridgehead of North Korea, he will become a sinner forever.

In fact, Silence was not afraid of the invasion of North Korea, but regarded it as a rare opportunity to quench the empire's sharp blade. However, this battle cannot be fought so early. It must wait until the country is destroyed and then set up and freed up before talking about it. So how to delay this invasion has become a topic that Silence must overcome.

The best way is to delay the pace of unification. The spy and research of the *** made the silence clear. Although it was Toyotomi Hideyoshi who completed the unification, the real founder was Oda Nobunaga. It was this ***er who was fanatically sought after by later generations that defeated almost all powerful enemies and cleared the obstacles for unification. If it weren't for the accidental killing of Nobunaga, nobunaga, the retainer, would not have won't be the turn of Hideyoshi, the retainer.

But silence cannot passively wait for the Honnoji change, because at that time, Nobunaga's legion was no longer comparable, and no matter from the perspective of territory, population, financial resources, and management philosophy, Nobunaga's great cause of "World Buwu" was irreversible. Therefore, we must take action in advance to prevent Oda Nobunaga's rise.

However, for a long time, *** was Wang Zhi's forbidden body. Silence could not stretch out his hand too long, so he could only spy on information while waiting for the opportunity. It was not until Wang Zhi's death that he instructed Mao Haifeng to take advantage of Wang Cheng, Wang Qingxi and Ye Bichuan to seize the ***'s nest. When Mao Haifeng gained a foothold in ***, it was already four years after Longqing. Three years ago, Oda Nobunaga had already successfully joined Luo, overthrew the Miyoshi Matsunaga regime, which was in charge of central politics, and supported Ashikazuo Yoshiaki as the general of the conquering the vassal in Kyoto, and expressed his ambition to use the emperor to make the princes.

As the general of the expedition, Yoshiaki was not satisfied with his destiny and attempted to revive the Muromachi Shogunate. He secretly sought assistance from the powerful family forces around the Oda family and formed the "Nobunaga Surrounding Net" to destroy the "Nobunaga public enemy". Faced with the enemy from all sides, Nobunaga's army fell into a long and hard battle and was forced into a desperate situation several times. It was just because the coalition forces were not subordinate to each other and each had their own plans, and always wanted to save themselves and let others sacrifice them, so that Nobunaga could survive.

Nobunaga was surrounded by powerful enemies and was able to escape dangers many times, and then fight stronger and stronger, making people believe that he had a destiny. In the sixth year of Longqing, Takeda Shingen, who was the most qualified to compete for the world during the Warring States Period, finally ended the fifth battle of Kawaakashima with the "Echigo Dragon" Kenshin Uesugi Kenshin and joined the army to attack Nobunaga's army. As soon as the powerful Takeda army joined, they won great victory one after another. The tired Nobunaga's army was unable to resist and almost fell into a desperate situation.

Takeda Shingen was not only stronger than Oda Nobunaga on the battlefield, but also allowed a scattered coalition force to form a joint force to strangle Nobunaga's forces. By the first year of Wanli, Nobunaga was already in a desperate situation, but Takeda Shingen died of illness and Takeda's army returned to Kafai. As a result, Takeda Shingen died of illness less than a year, and most of the Daming who joined Nobunaga's encirclement were defeated by Nobunaga...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

During the first "Nobunaga Encirclement", Mao Haifeng and his Wufeng Merchants, although they transported a large amount of arms to the anti-Nobunaga forces and even provided mercenaries. However, the failure of the anti-Nobunaga Alliance was not a matter of strength at all, but the faction of each division was too selfish and refused to fight Nobunaga, so the results were very little.

Fortunately, his advisers summarized their experiences and lessons in time, and no longer paid equal attention to each family as before, but instead focused their efforts to support the family. Their support target was a group of monks. To be precise, they were monks from Ishiyama Honanji.

As long as people who have a little understanding of the history of ***, they know that this decision is not ridiculous, because the monks of *** are much more awesome than the monks in China. Although they are monks, they can actually marry, have children, drink, eat meat, and have privileges like ordinary people, such as not paying taxes, not serving in service.

The major temples at that time were very strong, among which Yixiangzong was the strongest. As the main mountain of Yixiangzong, Ishiyama Honanji, during the Warring States Period, a large number of armed disciples with strong centripetal force gathered in the Warring States Period. The area and population continued to expand. In the end, it became a large city with eight blocks and dozens of square kilometers. It also built moats, bunkers and corresponding city defense fortifications around it. Rather than a temple, it was a strong city prepared for war, and it was also located on the main road to Kyoto. Its strategic position was very important. It became a huge religious force that even Daming of the Warring States Period had to be afraid of, but tried every means to gather.

In the first "Nobunaga Surround", Ishiyama Honanji played a very important role. They not only coordinated and organized various families to send troops, but also issued a "bee-rise" order to disciples from all over the country. Fanatic disciples from all over the country launched battles in their respective locations, destroying bridges, burning supplies, and attacking the defenders. The Nobunaga's side was trapped in an endless people's war, while the anti-Nobunaga coalition was able to do so easily, winning consecutive battles and forcing Nobunaga to a dead end.

The leader of the sect, Xiru, was a smart strategist. He accurately captured Nobunaga's life gate. According to his idea, as long as the coalition forces could hold up Nobunaga's main force, the rising uprising of the believers would inevitably make Nobunaga's small remaining forces go to various places, exhausted and eventually consume them. Perhaps without having to go through any major battles, the Nobunaga's encirclement network can be tighter and tighter, thus strangling Nobunaga to death in this network.

Unfortunately, this anti-Nobunaga consortium was a headless giant who fought independently and had no unified command, so even though the authorities had done everything, he was still helpless against Nobunaga. Especially after Takeda Shingen died suddenly and Takeda's army retreated to Kakai, Nobunaga reached a reconciliation with the various families through the emperor, and pointed the finger at Yixisong. Honrenji had to rely on his own strength to have a head-on conflict with Nobunaga. The major reversal of the strategy was thus formed.

In May of the fifth year of Longqing, Nobunaga, who reorganized his arms, launched a counterattack and vowed to kill all the enemies. At this point, Xianru had to bite the bullet and do it alone.

But Nobunaga, who had already been freed from the encirclement, had already been at ease. He could finally settle the accounts with Yixiangsou. In order to capture this strong city, Oda Fang built more than ten branches around Honan Temple, and built bunkers and waterways along the coast. In an instant, the "Nobunaga Encirclement" that Xianru worked hard to become "Nobunaga Encirclement", and he saved Xianru himself. The demise of the Honan Temple seemed to be right in front of him, and it was inevitable.

But at this time, in the distant West, another anti-Nobunaga force appeared and came from the backstage to the front stage. The Maori trend led by Fumimoto Mori, under the general's push, tore up the alliance with Nobunaga and joined the ranks of opposing Nobunaga. Of course, Fumimoto was not the kind of person who was moved by others. The main reason why he and Nobunaga broke up with each other was because he realized that if Honunji was destroyed, then Nobunaga's next thing he would have to deal with, so he had to fully support Honunji, a major center that opposes Nobunaga's forces, in order to hold Nobunaga and gain time for himself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At that time, the naval general of Nobunaga's family, Katsuraki Kyuki, had cut off the sea routes of the Honanji army and blocked the coast. In order to open up the supply line of Honanji, the Maori water army, which had been proud of by Hiromoto, began to take action and transport supplies to Ishiyama, which was in the ******. The two sides fought fiercely. In the end, the Maori Navy defeated the Oda navy, led by the Kyuki, and sent all the important military and food to Osaka, which greatly increased the morale and courage of the Honanji side.

At this time, through marriage, Osaru obtained a strong support for himself in the east, and was incompatible with Takeda Shingen. So, the already precarious Honanji Temple resurrected again, from passive to active. Inspired by this, the activities of the anti-Nobunaga forces reached a climax again. The forces that had originally surrendered to Nobunaga rebelled and threw themselves into the arms of Honanji and Maori.

To Nobunaga, Honanji is really like a multi-headed monster. Every time he cut off one of his head, he soon stretched out one elsewhere to continue to fight you, and he became an undead Hydra. But how could Oda Nobunaga give up. In order to deal with Maori's elite naval forces, the Oda army developed the original iron armored warship of the Warring States Period - the Daiya Ship. The appearance of this giant ship covered with iron armor and was not afraid of rockets and muskets. The appearance of the giant ship, which was covered with iron armor and was not afraid of rockets and muskets, announced the change of hands of the Maori water control power. In the second sea battle two years later, the Oda navy, with six iron armored ships as the core, severely damaged the Maori naval army, which was known as invincible. The Honanji had contacted the outside world, and it was about to be cut off again.

However, when the two sides were about to decide the outcome, a mysterious fleet entered the battle group. The fleet was fast and agile and fierce in fire, allowing the people to see what a real shelling was. Several interludes and several volleys fired, causing the arrogant iron armored ship to ignite a raging fire. This fleet entangled six iron armored ships, and the battle situation immediately reversed. The collapsed Maori naval army regained its strength and launched a fierce attack on the rest of the Oda army's warships.

Finally, with the help of the uninvited guests, the Maori Navy annihilated most of the Oda Navy and won another victory.

When he learned that the invincible naval army he had exhausted his family and formed was destroyed, Oda Nobunaga lost his mind for a long time and sighed: "The world is no longer something I can seize..." Afterwards, he found out that the navy that suddenly broke out and changed the situation was actually the Five Peak Fleet hired by Xianru and Maori Hiromoto. Although he hated these Chinese pirates, in order to reverse the unfavorable situation, he took the initiative to send an envoy to Mao Haifeng, saying that no matter what reward Xianru and Maori Hiromoto promise him, he would be willing to pay double as long as the Chinese could stop intervening in the civil war.
