The One Thousand and One Nights, the fish dies and the net is broken!
Friendly reminder, the chapter name is so floating!
......
At night, the evening breeze blows on the banks of the Natori River, bringing a chill to the ashigaru people of the Tsugawa family.
After a day of fierce fighting, although the victory was achieved, the ashigaru of the Tsugawa family was also very tired. However, the first priority at this time was to clean up the battlefield and collect the bodies of the Tsugawa family Ashigaru who died in battle, and make statistics so that the Tsugawa family could distribute bereavement benefits in the future.
At the same time, in the castle tower of Koizumi Castle, the celebration banquet of the Tsugawa family was also carried out in a cheerful atmosphere.
"The Hachikashikan Hachiwa Yamato guards, 74 enemies, three samurai. Saburo Miyamoto's subordinate was wounded in 17 places and still insisted on fighting, and Kishichiro Koizumi Mura begged for a samurai......"
"Bai Bei Wise Right Horse Assists the Team, Defeats 61 Enemies, 4 Samurai........"
"The Chengguan Brigade is wise and ten guards, and the enemy is 1.... 198 people, 24 samurai, and the enemy general Watari Motomune died in battle! ”
"The Einsatzgruppen Hazu Saburo Guard, 53 enemies, 3 samurai, captured the enemy generals Doctor Date Sakyo and Date Munekiyo and four others......"
"The naval army is in the main mountain, and the enemy is unknown, and assists the Hazu Yukihide team to defeat the enemy Doctor Date Sakyo ........."
In the Tsugawa family's main camp, one after another Tsugawa retainers who participated in the war submitted military loyalty to Tsugawa Soji, and then retreated to the side to wait for Tsugawa Soji's ruling. After that, Tsugawa Soji read out the contents of the army's loyalty letter in public, explaining to his retainers the capture of each unit in this battle.
The military loyalty certificate is a document proving the participation in the battle and military exploits, which is written by the retainers who participated in the war and then handed over to the master's family for verification, and then the reward is issued according to the situation.
Military loyalty letters were used at a very early age, and in order to be rewarded by the lord after the war, it was necessary to prove the fact of one's participation in the war and military exploits, and to prove the circumstances of one's participation in the battle and military merits, the one who wrote it.
The contents of the military loyalty certificate are mainly the number of troops participating in the battle, the damage caused to the enemy, and the damage suffered by the own army. At the same time, you can also list the names of other generals of your family who fought in the same place as proof of your loyalty.
After Soji Tsugawa finished reading the military loyalty, the focus of the audience was undoubtedly Akechi Mitsuhide, who sat down with a calm face.
The Chengguan Brigade fought against 198 people, which was undoubtedly the most killed among the retainers present, and the general of the Date family, Watari Motomune, also died in the battle, which was beyond the imagination of everyone present.
Asakura Keishige, who was sitting next to Akechi Mitsuhide, also raised his eyebrows, feeling the gaze from other samurai, Asakura Keishige unconsciously puffed up his chest.
"The order is paid with the army, the content of the military loyalty certificate handed by each soldier is verified, and after it is true, the general's loyalty certificate is sent back to the Ueno Castle Government Office, and the government office draws up a list of favors, and then submits it to the lord to decide!" On the side of Soji Tsugawa, Sanada Yutakaka, the head of the House of Councillors, announced.
"Hah!"
"In this battle, our family has a total of forty-three Date warriors, and they will be submitted to the head for inspection by the lord in order!" After the military loyalty, the retainers and Ashigaru who had won the enemy samurai in this battle took their "spoils" one by one to Tsugawa Soji for Tsugawa Soji to check.
The first one who walked in was a somewhat restrained leader samurai, and after entering the main formation, he hurriedly put the wooden box he was holding in front of him, and then saluted Tsugawa Soji, "The leader of the first squad of the Ueno Castle Chengguan Squadron, Samurai Yoshino Kotaro, has seen the lord, this head is the head of the Hiyogo of the lord of the Date family, Watari Castle, please verify the authenticity." ”
said that it was verified, but it was just a formality, and Tsugawa Soji didn't know Watari Motozong. However, before sending it up, there were actually special people who had verified it, and no one dared to deceive Tsugawa Soji about this kind of thing.
Soji Tsugawa nodded, and then wrote and drew on the desk in front of him, and after a while, a feeling was freshly baked, "Yoshino Kotaro, this battle won the head of Ashigaru 3 people, and won the head of Watari Hyogo, and this feeling is specially issued as a reward!" Wangru will make persistent efforts and work hard to serve the public! ”
"Ha~ha!" Yoshino Kotaro took the feeling from Tsugawa Soji with a solemn face, and then withdrew from the main camp with the head of Watari Motomune.
After Yoshino Kotaro, several samurai walked in with their heads in a beaming manner, and then took over the feeling excitedly.
Under normal circumstances, the petition is issued by the lord to a person who has made special merits, and the content is probably "so-and-so is a good comrade..... and the like", which is an affirmation of this person and an affirmation of his public service.
"In Shimo-Nakano Tsunekisuke, this head is the head of the Date family, Dr. Date Sakyo, and I would like to congratulate the Tsugawa Right Konoe General Hall with this thing!" Then he walked in with a calm face.
And after hearing the identity of Nakano Zongshi and the head he offered, there was a sudden exclamation in this formation.
Some of the retainers were amazed that Nakano Mune, who was a retainer of the Date family, would actually enter the head of the lord Date Harumune, which was undoubtedly a sign of extreme disloyalty. And the sigh of some retainers is to regret why it is not Date Harumun who he has begged, in that case, the first merit is himself.
Nakano Sotoki slowly opened the wooden box in his hand, and Date Harumune's slightly serene appearance suddenly met Tsugawa Soji's eyes. Looking at the head of Date Harumune, the head of the Date family, who was in Mutsu, Tsugawa Soji was also full of emotion, "Date Sakyo Doctor Hall is also a hero, although he is an enemy of his own family, but since he is dead, this head will be returned to the Date family!! ”
"But when you were in the Nakano sect, why did you dedicate the head of the Date family to the family? It is said that you have also won the trust of Dr. Date Sakyo, so why did you commit such an unrighteous act?" Soji Tsugawa said as he sat on the throne and stared at Nakano Soji.
Nakano Sect replied expressionlessly, "Good birds choose trees to perch, people go to high places, and water flows to low places." Date is already in the waning mountains, and he often boasts of his outstanding ability in the next, now that the Date family is finished, he naturally has to find a next home for himself! ”
"The Tsugawa family is full of talents, so naturally there is no shortage of such people. Therefore, in order to be able to go out of the Shizugawa family, the head of Dr. Date Sakyo is used as a qualification for advancement, and if the Tsugawa Right Guard General Hall does not give up, he is willing to serve the Tsugawa family! After speaking, Nakano Sotoki bowed to Tsugawa Soji.
Soji Tsugawa slowly stood up from his position, "You are sincere!" ”
"It's just a head who wants to let the family take you in, I'm afraid it's a little too taken for granted, right?" Tsugawa Soji said with a smile, "If you appear in front of the family with the head of Date Harumun before the war, the family may be able to reluctantly contain you." But now that the Date family has been defeated, it doesn't matter whether there is such a thing or not, and how dare the family accept a person like you? “
"What Tsugawa Right Guard Admiral Hall said is actually not regretful, but I feel lucky! I don't really want to become a retainer of the Tsugawa family with this object.,I just want to use this thing to enter this place.。 Now it seems that under the next seems to have succeeded! As he spoke, Nakano Sotoki's face suddenly changed, and he took out a knife from the wooden box containing the head of Date Harumun, and then pounced directly on Tsugawa Soji not far away.
Tsugawa Soji was stunned for a moment, and he didn't have time to react at all, and the other retainers were also far away, so it could be said that they couldn't reach it, so they watched Nakano Sotoki rush towards Tsugawa Soji with a knife in his hand.......
