『Chapter error, click here to report』
July 26, 14th year of astronomy.
After a few days, the Tsukawa family had firmly controlled Iwate and Purple Wave Gun. In addition to the Johoji family in northern Iwate Prefecture, the Fuji family also submitted a petition to the Tsugawa family, requesting that they be subordinate to the Tsugawa family.
For these wealthy families who take the initiative to take refuge, Tsugawa Soji is of course extremely welcome.
At this point, Iwate County and Purple Wave County have completely become the new leaders of the Tsugawa family. In addition, most of the wealthy clans in the Luzhong region have already subordinated to the Tsugawa family, leaving only the southern region of the Luchu region and other places such as Etsushi-gun, which are too far away, and the wealthy clans in these places have interests with the Kasai family, the Osaki family and other forces, and the Tsugawa family is not able to infiltrate the power here for the time being.
However, at this time, the news that Nanbu Harumasa was not dead also reached the ears of Tsugawa Soji.
Although Tsugawa Soji was very disappointed in his heart, he had to accept this fact. However, Tsugawa Soji was relieved after being dull for a while, although Nanbu Harumasa did not die, but after this defeat, the Nanbu family has collapsed. In addition, there was a rebellion within the southern family, and the Nanaoka family in the Tsugaru region also began to attack the territory of the southern family, and the southern family was now unable to pose much of a threat to the Tsugawa family.
......
Inside the Takasuidaji Castle Castle Tower, the exciting time has finally arrived.
After this period of statistics, the relevant meritorious rewards are finally about to be announced. The retainers came to the castle tower early and sat down, waiting for the arrival of Soji Tsugawa!
"The lord has arrived!" Suddenly, Yajima Tadamei's voice sounded from inside the hall, and as Yajima Tadawei's words fell, Tsugawa Soji slowly walked in from the back of the hall.
"I've seen the lord!" The retainers of the Tsugawa family in the hall hurriedly saluted.
Soji Tsugawa slowly came to the main seat and sat down, and then said, "The evaluation begins!" ”
"Jiuji, first of all, let's talk about the general situation of the family this time." Soji Tsugawa said to Kuji Mizutani beside him.
"Hah!" Mizutani Kuji agreed, and then sat down and said, "Everyone." In this dispatch, the main family defeated the Nanbu family and the barnyard family, and successfully eliminated the Spo family, occupying Iwate and Purple Wave guns. ”
"In this battle, the family captured a total of 79 samurai, 794 ashigaru, and 652 prisoners! Victory! ”
"However, the family also paid for the casualties of 32 samurai and 425 ashigaru." Speaking of this, Mizutani Hisaharu also showed a deep sadness on his face, "In addition, the garrison of Komatsuyama Castle and the general of Ashigaru Tsumei, Kuchiki Tsumei, died in battle. Takahashi Xingjia was also seriously injured, and although the battle was won by the family, the loss of the family was still not small. ”
After saying that, Kuji Mizutani set his sights on Soji Tsugawa.
Feeling Mizutani Hisaharu's gaze, Tsugawa Soji turned his head and said, "Although the casualties of this family are not small, but fortunately, this family has captured the two counties of Iwate and Purple Wave, which can be regarded as a great comfort." ”
"Daowei, how is the inventory of materials after the war? Can the stone height of Iwate and Purple Wave two counties be statistically completed? Then, Soji Tsugawa said to Hachiba Michiji behind Hisaharu Mizutani.
Babai Daowei hurriedly said in a loud voice: "Lord." Due to the sudden defeat of the southern family, most of the materials carried by the family were captured, a total of 41 horses and 1,700 stone of grain. In addition, in the various cities within the territory of the Sibo family, a total of 90,000 stone of grain and knives were counted, which was enough to equip 15 squadrons. In addition, there are 740 gold judgments and 122 silver judgments. ”
"In addition, there are many expensive tea utensils and famous knives. Among them, the black feather silver-edged white carcass pills and the famous sword Shida Kunimitsu that have been passed down from generation to generation by the Spo family of Takamizuji Temple are all rare treasures. Babai Daowei said with a smile on his face.
Tsugawa Soji didn't care much about what famous knives and tea utensils Hachibai Daowei said, but he was very happy to be able to get so much food and knives.
There was not much iron ore in the Tsugawa family's domain, and although the forging of weapons could be made in-house, it was not possible to mass-produce it due to various reasons such as craftsmanship and iron ore production. Therefore, most of the weapons and equipment of the Tsugawa family were bought with money, and the capture of these weapons was enough for the Tsugawa family to establish a standing force of 15 more squadrons, which was quite good.
"In addition, there are two horse farms in Iwate Prefecture, and there are many war horse resources, and it is estimated that 300 good horses can be obtained. In addition, there are one gold mountain and two silver mountains, although the scale is relatively small, but the output is still very considerable. It is expected to make a profit of about 4,000 yuan per year. Ba Bai Dao then added.
"Haha!" After Hachibai Dao finished speaking, before Tsugawa Soji could speak, Kanna Shixin, who was sitting below, couldn't help laughing and said, "My lord, this time the horseback team of this family can increase by 5 squadrons!" "This time, the cavalry team led by Kanna Toshinobu did not gain much success.
Except for taking advantage of the fact that the main forces of the southern family were attacking the Fangkan, Kanna Toshinobu led the cavalry team to raid the main formation of the southern Harimasa and repelled the southern Harusa, there was no such thing as a result. After all, compared to the Tsugawa family's horseback team, the southern family's horseback riding team has an advantage in terms of numbers and other aspects.
Now that he suddenly saw so many more war horses, Kanna Shixin was very excited.
Looking at Kanna Tokishin with an excited face, Soji Tsugawa smiled and said, "You! The family's current 200 horseback riding team costs the family nearly 7,000 yuan a year. Now that the family is asking for money everywhere, there is no need to increase the number of horseback riders for the time being. ”
Soji Tsugawa is also helpless!
In the past, when the territory of the Tsugawa family was not so large, there were not many places to use money. Therefore, it is also permissible to use seven or eight out of ten of the money to strengthen armaments, but with the development of the Tsugawa family, there are places where money is used everywhere, and there is no way for Tsugawa Soji. is saying that the horse riding team is thrown out of money, but the problem is that the Tsukawa family is almost unable to smash it now.
Yes, don't look at the Tsukawa family, which is now the No. 1 in North Okuba, but in fact, the Tsukawa family's financial resources are almost unable to afford it.
The Tsugawa family now has nearly 5,000 standing ashigaru people in the collar, and the annual income of these 5,000 people alone is about 30,000 kan (a standing ashigaru is 15 stones, stone rice. In addition, the strength of the five-color equipment and the cavalry team is even higher, so the overall annual need is 30,000. )
This is just Ashigaru's money, and if you count the castle, the repair of roads, Ashigaru's bereavement pension, the resettlement and additional benefits of Ashigaru's family members who died in battle, and other places that need money in various aspects, the Tsugawa family is about to be hollowed out.
Kanna Tokinobu also understood the difficulties of the Tsugawa family at this time, so he had no choice but to give up.
Seeing Kanna, he didn't squeak, and then Tsugawa Soji continued, "No matter what, this time to send troops, for those who have merit, the family will naturally reward them!" The corresponding reward will be announced by the Yoshikawa Hiroie. ”
"Hah!" Yoshikawa Hiroya nodded hurriedly at this time and said.
As an old minister of the Tsugawa family, the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family must be excited at the moment. As a retainer who got up early to join the Tsugawa family, the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family is still like a dream about the achievements of the Tsugawa family today.
