One thousand one hundred and eighty-three what a vicious conspiracy
When the news that the Qin Dynasty decided to return Ishimi Ginyama to Tokugawa Ieyasu reached Kyoto, it was two days before the withdrawal of the Qin Dynasty.
When this news came, the Toyotomi's power exploded directly.
A large group of retainers and Daemin rushed to Toyotomi Hideji's mansion and strongly demanded Toyotomi Hideji to send troops to intimidate the Qin and Tokugawa side.
The Qin Dynasty cannot be allowed to hand over Ishimi Ginshan to Tokugawa Ieyasu. They must get Ishimi Ginshan's silver to strengthen their arms and expand their troops, otherwise Tokugawa will become stronger and stronger, until it loses control.
Since Japan was forced to divide the East and West, Tokugawa's development has always made Tokugawa Hideji look sharp. Whenever he hears some more powerful news about Tokugawa's side, he is always worried.
He really wanted to launch a war three years ago to eliminate Tokugawa's forces, not only avenge Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but also unify Japan and develop himself again, in order to collect blood debts from Xiao Rukun in the future and restore the glory of Toyotomi clan.
However, Toyotomi Hideji's idea was strongly opposed by Maeda Takiya and Ishida Mizunai.
Maeda Takiya and Ishida Mitsunari are people who Toyotomi Hideyoshi trust very much. Among them, Maeda Takiya is a big shot with both prestige and strength. He is a person who even an old fox like Tokugawa Ieyasu must retreat.
It can be said that after Toyotomi Hideyoshi's death, only he can stabilize Toyotomi's power, allow himself to ascend the throne safely, and stabilize the situation.
The Maeda Tatsuya family made great contributions. Toyotomi Hideji himself knew that if he hadn't had the Maeda Tatsuyaki, he would have died now. He either died at the hands of Tokugawa Ieyasu or at the hands of some other ambitious family. Anyway, he would have died.
But the Maeda Takiya stepped forward and stopped the collapse of the Toyotomi power that was about to fall apart, stabilized the situation, stood in Kyoto, worshiped the Emperor, and obtained the title of Otaku, declared orthodoxy to the world, forcibly forcing Tokugawa Ieyasu into an embarrassing situation.
It is precisely because of such a series of political actions that the Toyotomi family was able to regain their foothold and develop again in politics, and successfully survived the most difficult period. Except for the Maeda Taki family, no one in the Toyotomi forces after Toyotomi Hideyoshi's death had such prestige.
Tokugawa Ieyasu obviously had no solution to this situation, so he could only retreat and retreat and hike in Western Japan to develop himself.
However, Tokugawa Ieyasu's internal affairs ability is unquestionable. Even if he gets a broken land, he forcibly uses commercial means to open up the source, uses clean government means to reduce expenditures, and obtains enough funds to develop himself, and force the Toyotomi power step by step.
The Maeda Taki family responded freely, using various means to stabilize Toyotomi, suppress Tokugawa, encouraged farming and sericulture, and developed agriculture and handicrafts, so that the Toyotomi family's foundation gradually became richer. After all, the Toyotomi family's population and land were above Toyotomi family.
With the great god Maeda Taki family, the Tokugawa clan had no choice but to take Tokugawa clan, but this was not without danger. Tokugawa Ieyasu was very keen to detect Tokugawa's life gate, which was the health problem of Maeda Taki family.
In fact, when the incident of the return of Ishimi Ginyama to Tokugawa Ieyasu was spread to Kyoto, the Maeda Taki family had been on leave for more than ten days while they were sick and had not recovered. They were still lying on the bed to recuperate. The government affairs had been arrested by Mizunai Ishida assisted Toyotomi Hideji himself.
The Maeda Taki's serious illness was undoubtedly an opportunity for the Ozawa faction's military generals. Most of them were pro-war factions. They were frightened by Daqin before, but after learning that Daqin was going to withdraw his troops and return Ishimi Yinshan, the long-lost courage was raised again.
They almost rushed to Toyotomi Hideji's mansion and advised Toyotomi Hideji, asking Toyotomi Hideji to allow troops to fight against Toyotomi, kill Toyotomi, take back Ishimi Ginshan, unify Japan again, and enfeoff the world.
To be honest, it is impossible for Toyotomi Hideji to not act. However, like most people, he was deeply afraid and fear of the excessive military power of the Qin Dynasty. Because of the effective shock of the Qin Dynasty, he did not dare to act rashly.
"If such news came out of the Qin army, it cannot be proved true or false. If this is false news, it is the news that the Qin army tried to lure us to attack, then who would be willing to send troops to attack Shi Jian?"
Toyotomi Hideji didn't say anything, looked at Mizunai Ishida. Mizunai Ishida understood and spoke up, making the generals choked and unable to speak.
Who is not afraid of the Qin army cheating just to kill a few more of them? The sudden battle before caused heavy losses to the Daming of Izumo Kingdom, but he only dared to cry and not act rashly.
I'm really a little scared, not fake.
So no one dared to talk a lot, but the dissatisfaction of the generals of the Ozawa Sect with Mitsunari Ishida became even more serious.
In the following days, Toyotomi Hideji was always paying attention to this matter. Five days later, the latest news came.
About two thousand Qin troops left Shi Jian on a boat and sailed towards the Qin land. This was a true news. Dozens of spies witnessed it together, and it was absolutely impossible to make any mistake.
Now the riots of the generals of the Okawa Sect were unstoppable, because the news was confirmed and it was true. Even Toyotomi Hideji and Ishida Mizunaga themselves were stunned and unable to believe it, but this incident really happened.
"Impossible. Qin State has a strong national strength. Shi Jian Yinshan produces one million taels of silver annually. Why did they give up this one million taels of silver? If something goes wrong, there will be monsters. Your Highness must not act rashly no matter what. This matter must be treated with caution, and you must not send troops rashly!"
Mizunai Ishida sincerely suggested to Toyotomi Hideji.
Toyotomi Hideji was silent on the surface. After a while of silence, he asked: "Is it because of something sudden happened in Qin that caused Qin to have to mobilize overseas troops back to pacify the incident?"
Mitsunari Ishida was stunned and had to think that this statement was indeed reasonable and possible.
However, it is normal to draw troops back and return Ishimi to Tokugawa Ieyasu. This is too abnormal. This must be a conspiracy.
"It is normal to withdraw troops and go back, but it is absolutely abnormal to return Ishimi. If you say so much silver, you don't want it. Qin is too generous. Moreover, since you want to return it, you don't want it to your Majesty the Emperor, but you want to give it to Tokugawa Ieyasu's rebellion. Don't your Highness think there is any problem with it?"
Although Toyotomi Hideji doesn't like Ishida Mitsunari to use Toyotomi Hideyoshi to suppress him, he has to admit that Ishida Mitsunari is relatively wise and soon thinks of the most critical problem here.
What does it mean to not return it to the supreme ruler of Japan that Daqin himself recognized, but to return it to a rebellion?
"So, why do you think this is?"
Toyotomi Hideji asked Mizuna Ishida.
Mizunashi Ishida touched his beard and thought for a while.
"It is probably because we want to use this to make the two sides start a war. Fortunately, when Qin quells civil strife, we are unable to pose a threat to Qin, and we have to fight ourselves."
As he said that, Mitsunari Ishida had to sigh, "What a vicious conspiracy."
Of course, Mizunari Ishida said this. The Qin Dynasty did not return Ginshan to Toyotomi, but returned Ginshan to Toyotomi. It was obviously to arouse Toyotomi's dissatisfaction and war. Toyotomi would never allow Ginshan to fall into the hands of Toyotomi. Even if he knew that this was a plan, he had to get in.
This is not a conspiracy, it is an open conspiracy.
What a vicious plot.
