Chapter Seventy-Three: The Monkey Gains
"Is Takayama-sama here?" Just when the Takayama clan and Ishikawa Goemon were excited, shouts came from outside the door.
As the words fell, Ishikawa Goemon immediately saluted the clan and said in a serious whisper: "Lord, someone is coming, and it is inconvenient for his subordinates to appear, so please approve his subordinates to continue to lurk." ”
Seeing that Ishikawa Goemon looked like a little adult, the clan couldn't help but feel funny, but he still said seriously: "Okay, I approve it, you can continue to lurk." ”
Ishikawa Goemon had been washed off the paint, so he simply ran behind the screen to hide.
As the words fell, a young samurai walked in from the door, and after the clan thought for a while, after making sure that he had not seen this famous samurai, he couldn't help but ask, "In the lower Takayama clan, may I ask who you are?" ”
The young man smiled slightly, and said: "Hehe, I have long admired the brave name of Lord Gaoshan, you have not been walking at home recently, so you are relatively unfamiliar with Zaixia. ”
Naomasa 塙? The clan had heard of this name, but because he died too young, there were no outstanding deeds, except that he would become a member of the Red Mother Cloth in the future, but he died young in 1576 during the Battle of Ishiyama Honganji.
This is not important to the clan, but the important thing is that after he heard this name, he suddenly thought of another name - Naoyuki Tsunayuki, although Naoyuki Naoyuki has many problems such as alcoholism, but he is not only good at using iron cannons, but also can successfully sneak attack the army led by the famous vigilant Wasuka Masakatsu, with these achievements, in the late Warring States period, he can barely be regarded as a first-class samurai, but Naoyuki's identity has always been a mystery, some people say that he is the village of Ryuquanji Village, Haguri County, and the son of a local farmer. Because of his strong figure, he was caught by Oda Nobunaga at a glance, and he was promoted to a samurai by the horse shop.
However, the clan did not agree with this view, because he remembered that Naoyuki was born in 1567, and if he had been waiting for him to grow up, Nobunaga would have moved the main castle to Inabayama Castle a long time ago, and how could he have the spare time to wander around Ryusenji Village in Haguri County, so the clan thought that this statement was not reliable.
In his opinion, will this Naoyuki have something to do with Naomasa?
It's a pity that Naoyuki has not been born yet.,Everything is a guess of the clan.,Even if you ask, it's in vain.,So he can only take this matter to heart.,But the clan still plans to befriend him.,In case Naoyuki is really the son and nephew of this person in the future.,Then it's good to open your mouth and recruit Naoyuki as a retainer in the future.。
Thinking of this, the clan said politely: "We are all working for the lord, we should help each other, if the adults need anything in the future, we must not be polite to the clan sect." ”
"Hehe, then thank you Takayama-sama." Although Naomasa is closer to Nobunaga, he is much worse than the clan in terms of identity, and he saw that the clan spoke so politely, so he also said politely.
Since Nobunaga is recruiting each other, the clan does not dare to delay. When he came to the castle tower with Naomasa Tsukasa, Kinoshita Fujiyoshiro had already appeared here, and when he saw him, the clan clan was a little unrefreshed, after all, he had only won the land of 40,000 koku in Higashimino this time, and it was expected that Nobunaga would not have any heavy reward.
But the monkey is different, he is now happy that he can't find the north, this time, almost seventy percent of the land of East Minon, plus thirty percent of the land of North America, has been captured by him, this is nearly 150,000 stones, needless to say, it can be imagined that Nobunaga will definitely reward him.
When Kinoshita Tojiro saw the arrival of the clan, he walked over with great interest and said, "Ha Luha, Lord Takayama, you can count it as coming, the lord is already in a hurry." ”
Clan thought to himself, Nobunaga is in a hurry? Hmph, according to Lao Tzu, I'm afraid you are in a hurry. The clan arched his hand without a match, and said: "Kinoshita-sama, you have made a great contribution this time, and the lord will definitely reward you, and the clan is now here to congratulate." ”
After hearing this, Kinoshita Tojiro could no longer hide the excitement in his heart, and said with a bright eye: "Ha Luha, Lord Takayama is too polite......
"Come in both of you." Before Kinoshita Toyoshiro could finish speaking, Nobunaga's voice came from the living room.
As soon as the two of them sat down in the living room of the castle tower, they heard Nobunaga say, "You two have done a good job this time, especially the monkeys, I really didn't expect it, Ha Lu Ha." ”,
Nobunaga said while looking at Kinoshita Fujiyoshiro, he really didn't expect that it was not the Takayama clan that won the great merit this time, but the monkey who was not outstanding, he originally wanted to let the monkey go to the clan to fight the clan, after all, he still knew the ability of the clan, but he didn't expect that this time he was taken the first place by the monkey, how could he not be surprised, so as soon as the two came back, Nobunaga also immediately sent ninjas and listed the monkey as a key object of observation, if it is really capable, After that, we will also have to put some burdens on him appropriately.
Kinoshita Fujiyoshiro saw the lord's praise, and hurriedly said excitedly: "This is what his subordinates should do, and if it weren't for the lord's support for his subordinates in Sumamata Castle, he would definitely not have occupied Higashimino so soon." ”
For credit, Kinoshita Fujiyoshiro has no habit of being humble, and he is now ninety percent sure, and the main guild directly promoted him to the rank of general because of his merit this time, so when he speaks, he is even more unceremoniously. If everyone didn't know what was going on in the road, then they really thought that the entire Higashimino was captured by it independently.
The clan was very unhappy to listen to it, if it was according to what Kinoshita Toyoshiro said, this time, it was as if he had been playing soy sauce, it seemed that he was too careless, and Kamikishita Tojiro, who had not seen much before this, just wanted to prevent Matsudaira Motoyasu from coming, and it seems that he should pay more attention to Kinoshita Toyoshiro in the future.
Nobunaga doesn't have so many ideas, anyway, the two below are his own retainers, and it doesn't matter to him who makes meritorious contributions, and he doesn't want all the credit in the family to be taken care of by the clan alone.
Nobunaga was very comfortable with Kinoshita Toyoshiro's fart just now, and couldn't help but laugh and said: "Ha Luha, the monkey is right, you have made outstanding achievements this time, and now I will promote you to the rank of general, and add the title of Xuanjin Mountain City 1500 Shi Zhixing." ”
"Thank you, my lord, my subordinates will swear allegiance to the Oda family." Kinoshita Tojiro said excitedly.
Kinoshita Tojiro has been in the Oda family for six years, and it has taken him six years to go from a handyman to a general with 1,800 koku zhiyuki, and since then he has also entered the ranks of high-ranking samurai. How could this not make him feel excited.
But if you really talk about it, it only took him a little more than a year to be promoted from Ashigaru to Shogun, and his promotion speed has surpassed that of the clan, and since then he has become one of the most potential retainers of the Oda family. This also aroused the ideas of many retainers.
Then I only heard Nobunaga say casually: "Senbei, although the strategy of Dongmino this time is not as good as that of a monkey, it can be regarded as some credit, so it is better to add 300 stones." ”
The clan said weakly: "Thank you, lord." ”
