Chapter 162 Meritorious Service
The Kuroda family continued to lose troops under Takase Castle, and even the famous samurai of the wealthy family and the countrymen under the command of the Kuroda family had died as many as five or six people, and the soldiers were even more dead and wounded as many as a thousand.
After Kuroda handed over the supervision of the battle ahead to Matsui Shigemaka, he came to his big tent by himself. He didn't want to be lazy or give up on himself, he wanted to calm himself down, so that he could think of how to come up with a way to attack the city as quickly as possible.
It's just that he has been thinking about it for a long time, and he doesn't have any ideas, and it seems that the feasible methods have been used before. If you can, now that the Kuroda family has already captured Takase Castle, why bother thinking so hard.
At this time, a firehead soldier walked into Kuroda's big tent and brought him dinner. "Your Excellency, please eat."
"Just leave it there, I'll eat it myself." Kuroda Vocational High School was not in the mood to eat, so he just asked the soldiers to put dinner there.
"Hey!" Because of Kuroda's orders, the firehead put down the dinner plate and turned to leave.
"Wait a minute."
"Hey! What else does the lord command? The firehead immediately fell to his knees.
"What did you eat tonight?" Kuroda asked casually.
"Lord Hui, the little one followed the Kuroda family all the way from Harima Country, and he has always been a firehead, but this thing for dinner tonight, the little one really doesn't know." The firehead said very embarrassedly.
You must know that with his grade, even if he is a firehead, there are not many opportunities to see Kuroda Vocational High School, and he has not even spoken to Kuroda Vocational High School before, and he has always looked up to him. Now I finally asked Kuroda Vocational High School a question to myself and had a chance to perform, but it was very embarrassing that I was not able to meet the question of Kuroda Vocational High School, which was really embarrassing to throw at my grandmother's house.
"Ah, you're a firehead, and you don't even know what to eat?" At this time, Kuroda Vocational High School, who was a little upset because he couldn't think of a problem, rarely complained.
The status of the firehead soldier is low, how dare he take Kuroda's words, especially when he is obviously not very happy, if he makes Kuroda Zhigao angry again, wouldn't he be a death?
Kuroda Vocational High School, who hadn't waited for an answer for a long time, looked back, and it turned out that the firehead soldier was still kneeling there! And the firehead's body was still trembling a little. It seems that it was his own words just now, which made this soldier somewhat misunderstand his meaning, and he was very afraid that he would be unfavorable to him.
"Get up! I've just been in a bad mood and nothing is wrong. ”
"Please atone for your sins." The firehead soldier immediately kowtowed to Kuroda's high office.
"Okay, it's all said it's okay, you stand up first." Kuroda said loudly, and the firehead stood up with a twist, but the two hands were clutched together, obviously still very scared.
"What did you eat today?"
"This ......"
"It's okay, you can say it!"
"This ...... The little one said that he really didn't know what it was, except that they said that this thing was called a turtle. ”
"Turtles, aren't they?"
"Hey! When I was in Harima Country before, I saw a lot of seafood with me, but I had never seen this thing. This turtle is also strange, and its head is very fierce, looking at his head, Xiao still feels weird and scary when he thinks about it. The Firehead said.
"Turtles, yes? This is indeed a relatively rare food, and it should be more common to see fish or shellfish! How do you do that? ”
"My lord, you are really asking the wrong person to ask this, the villain has never even seen this thing, let alone made it, the little one only knows that the chef makes miso soup made of turtle meat."
"Miso soup, huh...... How did you deal with the returnees? ”
"Hey! We won't deal with this thing, it's all a turtle opened by a new guy from Nagato Country. My lord, this turtle is really tenacious, the hard shell on his body can't be broken with a hammer, and we finally slowly peel off the shell from the softer place behind him, and finally kill him. ”
"What? What you say, you repeat what you just said. Kuroda was sitting at Kuroda Vocational High School, but after hearing his words, he jumped up very excitedly.
"Ahh Small...... Small...... The small one means that this thing is really hard, and finally it is from the softer place behind it that its shell is slowly peeled off. ”
"It was from the softer part behind it that it slowly peeled off its shell. What you said is so good, I know, I really entered a dead end before, it turns out that it can be like this, I know...... I know. You have done a great job this time, go and see Matsui-sama yourself, and I will tell him later that he will give you a reward of twenty times. ”
"Ahh The firehead soldier was directly stunned, he felt that his brain was no longer enough, what is the situation, this is not scientific! Didn't you make the lord angry just now? How can you make meritorious service in the blink of an eye?
"Hey! I said you made a meritorious service. ”
"Oh! Yes...... The small ones have made meritorious contributions, and they have made meritorious contributions...... This...... This, this is really...... Thank you, Lord, thank you." The firehead soldier knelt on the ground, and Kuroda kowtowed.
"Alright, just leave by yourself."
"Hey! Thank you, thank you, Lord. ”
At this time, Kuroda Vocational High School was in no mood to look at him at all, because he had already learned from the words of the firehead soldier how to face the defense of Takase Castle, and he was now thinking about how to carry out this method relatively smoothly.
As long as Takase Castle can be defeated in the future, then the castle in the future, as well as the wealthy clans and countrymen of the Bunzen Kingdom, and the Otomo family of the Bungo Kingdom will not pose any threat to the Kuroda family, maybe Kyushu will be the Kuroda family like this, Kuroda Vocational High School thought.
Sometimes things are like this, the more difficult things seem to be, the more you will try to overcome them (those who lie down and fall asleep will be ignored), at this time all the methods you think may not work, you will fall into a strange circle of drilling the horns of the bull, if you don't get someone to point out, you really will never be able to turn around.
