Aizu

The Tokugawa Shogunate was struggling to deal with the rapid deterioration of public safety in Kyoto.
Therefore、Tokugawa decided to station an army corps in Kyoto to maintain public order.

The Tokugawa shogunate attempted to appoint one of the daimyo as its commander、but was "politely" refused by all of the daimyo it approached.
They were not opposed to the policies of the Tokugawa shogunate、but at the same time they were well aware of the severity of the current situation in Kyoto.

※Since it was a feudal system at that time、the unit of the army was each daimyo.
It seems that the Tokugawa shogunate was already in a situation where they could not force them to order.

However、the Tokugawa government at this time was just after the assassination of the prime minister who wielded dictatorial power (the existence of a dictator seems to be rare in the history of the Tokugawa Shogunate)、but、since the Tokugawa government was originally a political system in which the same position existed at the same time、in many cases it was not systematically clear where the responsibility lies、and it was not suitable for forcing someone to do something、maybe.
Of course、in this case、it may have all been an informal、light "internal consultation" stage before the plan was finalized.

By the way、the cabinet members of the Tokugawa government were also one of the daimyo.
They had been vassals of the Tokugawa clan since it was a local lord、and they became daimyo in the process of establishing Tokugawa's hegemony.
Overall、they were not very big daimyo、but they were qualified to join the Tokugawa government.

Others、for example、such as Tokugawa's former "colleagues" daimyo、were ineligible to join the Tokugawa government、even so、all lords were、so to speak、a colleague who considers Tokugawa as an leader (Peace lasted 250 years).

By the way、it seems that there were many cases where the lords themselves were adopted as children from other clans.
Although the status of each domain was strictly differentiated (of course、it can be said that there was no other way in feudal society)、there were many daimyo who formed relatives.※

※As for this、I think we can find out if we do a little research (lol)、now I don't know if I meant to say that "relations were formed only between daimyo of the same status" (lol). 2023051508:40 (japan time).

※Of course、this was within the samurai class、but the adopted children's origins may not have been limited to the families of the lords of other domains.
For example、although there may be some kind of kinship relationship ther、I feel that there were times when a direct retainer of the Tokugawa clan was adopted and became a daimyo. 2023051508:29 (japan time).

・・・・・・・・・
 
The principle of precedent.
Certain、"side by side" was common.

And the fact that an exceptional dictator appeared in such an era means that such a situation has occurred.

"No、he created that situation."

Well、it is from now on (I may not mention it).

・・・・・・・・・

The request to become the head of the security maintenance organization in Kyoto was finally brought to "Matsudaira Katamori" in Aizu (current Fukushima prefecture central area).
He was a man in the Tokugawa clan.
※Matsudaira is the maiden name of Tokugawa.
 
Of course、both he and his vassals were well aware of the severity of the situation in Kyoto.

"Kyoto is too far away for us in every way.
Please think about it、we are too ignorant of the inside political situation in Kyoto and western Japan、why doesn't the shogunate ask the feudal lords of western Japan to take office?
Even if we were stationed in present-day Kyoto as an armed security apparatus in such a state、in the end、it will just give "them" an object of hatred.
We currently have no way of avoiding it."

Naturally、the vassals desperately persuaded Katamori to refuse this request.

"If we accept this request、Aizu may finally perish."
"My lord should absolutely refuse this."
They finally said that.

But Katamori understood all of that、and then he said.

"However、someone has to do this.
The motto of the Matsudaira clan in Aizu states、'You must share your destiny with the head family'."
Now is the time to give back to Tokugawa.

More than anything else、the emperor is still suffering from this situation.
I will accept this request."

He decided so as samurai.
Yes、they accepted this inauguration request with their tears.
(It seems that it was actually so.)
 
Their predictions later became reality.

・・・・・・・・・
 
After arriving in Kyoto、they immediately started a security operation.
After a while、a ronin organization came under their control as an auxiliary organization for their activities.
This ronin organization would later be called the Shinsengumi.
