"As for the attack on Tajima, it is considered that there are four benefits. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoFirst, Ikuno Ginzan on the border between Harima and Tajima is very producing, and it is very important for the future development of the Kuroda family. Second, the strength of the mountain master is not strong, which is convenient for the Kuroda family to attack; The third country's lord, Yamana Yutoyo, is relatively weak, and the national government is all in the hands of the old ministers of the four families of the Gakiya clan, the Yagi clan, the Ota Ogaki clan and the Agami clan, and the four families have contradictions with each other, or they are tweaked, or attacked, and they will be able to conquer the kingdom of Tajima more easily; Fourth, the Tanba, Tango, and Inaba around Tajima are all easy to attack, and the Kuroda family can use this as a springboard to attack the surrounding areas. I don't know if it's right to say it below.,Koji Zhigao Adult.。 Nobuyoshi Umino respectfully bowed to Koji Zhigao.

"Oh! You got it! All right! What you said is so good, more carefully than I thought, you can go directly to the head of the family, Lord Kuroda, to report! Xiaoji Vocational High School was recognized, touched his head and said with a smile.

After that, Koji Vocational High School personally accepted three more people.

The first is Kinoshita Koichiro, the monkey's younger brother, who took the initiative to go to the Kuroda family, but surprised Kotera Takato. Born in Aichi County, Owari Province, his young name is Kotake. Now he is a twenty-two-year-old young man, who still looks like a peasant, but his eyes are full of light, and at first glance he is a clever man, worthy of a little monkey! Hideyoshi, who had already become a hundred-person leader in the Oda family, was ready to recruit him as a retainer at the suggestion of Nene Ning, but Kinoshita Koichiro heard that the Kuroda family in Harima Province recruited samurai and wanted to become a samurai like his brother, so he decided to try his luck at the Kuroda family, and was dug up by Kotera Vocational High School and became the flag samurai of the Kuroda family, just to fill the vacancy left after Kogawa Yoshitoshi left.

The second one is actually not discovered by Koji Vocational High School, because he was recommended by the Enryakuji Temple, Maeda Genyi, who was born in Mino Province. Originally the abbot of Owari Komatsubara-ji Temple, he entered the Enryakuji Temple of Mt. Hiei to practice, and the monks of the whole sect hit it off at first sight, and became very good friends, knowing that the family was going to recruit talents, and the monks of the whole sect who knew the ability of their friends wrote a letter inviting Genji Maeda to work with the Kuroda family, just because the appearance of the monk was discovered by the Koji vocational high school, and was immediately hired as the head of the family.

The third place is Hiratsuka Weiguang, whose young name is Sun Jiulang. Historically, this person was originally a retainer of the Akechi Mitsuhide family, participated in the attack on Oda Nobunaga, and later served as Toyotomi Hideyoshi's return member, and later participated in the Battle of Komaki Nagakute and the Odawara Expedition to obtain merits, and finally possessed a fief of 8,000 koku. Since he is a famous person, he shouldn't be far behind!

The Kuroda family was able to acquire so many talents at one time, and Kodera Vocational High School was excited, and as long as there were talents, the Kuroda family would have the motivation to continue to develop.

But what he didn't expect was that something that made him happier would happen again soon, the day after the recruitment of samurai and craftsmen ended, Li Sanbao took the initiative to ask to meet Kuroda Zhitaka, and in order to accompany his mother more, the small temple vocational high school who had not yet returned to the Imperial Castle also met with Li Sanbao because of curiosity.

Li Sanbao didn't come by himself, but with Xu Weixue, Liming Xinyuan, and two people from the Ming Kingdom who didn't know him.

"I've seen the lord and the young lord."

"Li Sanbao, what is the matter with bringing so many people here?"

"My lord, let's talk about this matter!" Xu Weixue came to the front and sat down, "These two are friends that Liming Xinyuan met in Beijing, the capital of the Ming Kingdom, when he was admitted to the martial arts examination before, named Ling Wei and Xie Guangzhao respectively, and they are the right-hand men of the Second Bureau of the Ming Dynasty's weapons. Xu Weixue said while Kotera Vocational High School translated for Kuroda Vocational High.

"Not long ago, Mao Haifeng led a large army to fight along the coast, and the bosses of the two sold firearms to the people without permission, and when the matter was about to be exposed, the responsibility was passed on to the two. The two were wanted overnight, and were told by their colleagues to escape from the city of Beijing. With no way out, I happened to meet my subordinates who were recruiting displaced people in the Ming Kingdom, and came to my Kuroda territory. The two happened to meet Dawn Nobuyuan, who was recruited among the newly arrived refugees, and this time they came here to introduce the two to the Kuroda family, hoping to serve the Kuroda family. ”

"What are the two capable of?" Kuroda asked.

"Lord Xu, just say it yourself!" Ling Wei also stepped forward and sat down, but he was obviously not used to kneeling.

Xu Weixue nodded and retreated to the back and sat down.

"In the next two, there is nothing else to do, but the family is all used in my Daming Weapons Second Bureau for generations. The next two are good at making firearms. Ling Wei said respectfully.

"Firearms?" Kuroda didn't really understand what it meant, but Kodera Zhigao was about to faint happily at this time, firearms! The Kuroda family originally had an advantage in long-range suppression because of the light crossbow. Later, Suzuki Shigesei's iron artillery team was accepted, but the number was small and the effect was not great for the time being. With the support of a large number of firearms, the rise of the Kuroda family will be irreversible.

"When the next two came, they stopped at a place called Hakata, and saw a kind of Japanese firearm, called the iron cannon, which is not worth mentioning compared with my Daming firearm." Ling Wei directly flattened the firearms of the Wa Kingdom, and the Koji Zhigao was very happy, which shows that the firearms of the Ming Kingdom that the Kuroda family will soon have will be much better than the iron cannon, you must know that on the battlefield, a little advantage can change the overall situation.

After Koji Zhigao translated this passage, Kuroda Zhitaka stood up, strode in front of Ling Wei, and said something loudly, anyway, Ling Wei didn't understand a word.

"My father said that he knew that the iron cannon, when attacking, it would be smoky, the fire was bright, and it was accompanied by the sound of thunder, as if it was a heavenly punishment, which made people fearful, I didn't expect the two of them to be able to make more powerful Ming firearms, if they can really be made in large quantities, the Kuroda family will not treat the two of them badly." Xiaoji Vocational High School said directly in Ming Mandarin.

"The next two are already in trouble, as long as the Kuroda family needs it, the next two will do their best." Although Ling Wei already knew that the young master of the Kuroda family could explain the Mandarin, he was still greatly taken aback when he really heard him say the more standard official dialect of the capital.

After receiving his reply, Kuroda returned to the main seat with satisfaction, and said: "This matter is very important, once the Ming country firearms are manufactured, the Kuroda family will definitely become famous in the western country, so the Kuroda family will support the two at all costs." ”

"Lord, this time I came here because the two of them have already created a Ming Kingdom Fire Gun together with Zaixia." Li Sanbao said to Kuroda Zhitaka.

"What, the Ming State firearms have been manufactured." Kuroda stood up again.

"Exactly, my lord, this time the simplest Ming Kingdom Fire Gun was made." Li Sanbao said respectfully.
