"Hey! It is precisely because of this that the first batch of graduates, a total of eight, except for one who is too old and has really poor intelligence, the other seven have all become the small surnames of the head of the family, and two of them are now in the army to observe and learn from actual combat experience. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Takashiro Yamamoto said respectfully to Hongo Kamitoyo.

Of course, Mihonto Takatsu will not tell Hongo Kamitoyo that the eight children who were selected are actually the ones who are really pinned on high hopes are Ansuke and Inoko Hyosuke who were brought in the army, and the others will return to the family to inherit the family business at most, and it will be good with the development of the Kuroda family in the future.

However, Yamamoto Takatsu's statement gave Hongo Kamitoshi a false impression, that is, it seemed that if he participated in this so-called training class, he would definitely be able to become a talent, and even Yamamoto Takaquan himself said that the child who was driven away was older, and his intelligence was really poor, and his two sons were not stupid, how could they be a little better than the other six people! If you can become a direct minister of the Kuroda family again, with the current momentum of the Kuroda family, it is really not a problem to mix thousands of stones!

"If there is such a thing, the Kuroda family is really amazing! But let's turn the seal under it, this ......" Hongo Kamitoyo seemed to be a little hesitant, but Yamamoto Takashi knew that things were actually about the same.

"It's not that it will be transferred immediately, and there will be no changes until the family takes the Inaba country, but after the Inaba country is pacified, the transfer will begin, and this transfer will involve many retainers in the family, so Hongo-sama can be completely relieved. As for the transfer of seals, Hongxiang can prepare first, and then it will be good to follow the crowd. ”

"I see! It's good to be able to have two hundred more koku at once, but ...... things in the future," Hongo Kamitoyo doesn't seem to be satisfied with the extra 200 koku.

"Don't worry, the Kuroda family pays attention to constantly using and absorbing external forces for the use of their own family, and constantly using every power in the family to continue to strengthen themselves. Therefore, as long as the adults follow the Kuroda family wholeheartedly, there will be no shortage of opportunities to obtain military exploits in the future, and the Kuroda family will definitely not spare the reward of the land. ”

"In this case, although this is a very difficult decision, I still surrender to the Kuroda family on behalf of the Hongo family, and I hope that the adults will take more care of it in the future!" The Kuroda family can not only help cultivate their own heirs, but also give more land, and there will be a lot of opportunities to obtain land in the future, and Hongo Kamitoyo is completely relieved.

"Of course, in that case, I'll retire first, and go back to tell the good news, I hope your lordship is ready to welcome the young master and your lords into the city!"

"Yamamoto-sama is relieved. It will be done in the next. ”

Immediately, the Hongo family officially surrendered to Kaijo, and Kuroda's army also temporarily rested in Hawei Castle.

At the same time that Yamana Seitoyo received the Kuroda family into Hawei Castle, another team of the Kuroda family also bypassed Sanbaoshan and entered the Inaba country, and it was Matsui Shigetaka of Sanrong County who led the three of Nobuhara Keinno, Dohi Yahachi, and Ota Hara Sotoki, as well as a thousand people.

After Kotera Vocational High occupied Tajima Province, he only led 3,000 men out of Inabaguna Province, because in addition to leaving 2,000 men to guard Tajima Province, he also sent 1,000 men back to Harima Province to replace the troops of Matsui Shigetaka of Sanrong Prefecture. After all, Harima Province is the foundation of the Kuroda family's rule, and we must always retain enough guardian power!

From entering Hachishu County in Inaba Province, the three small wealthy families of Xiaobo, Nakahara, and Yoshikawa along the road, as soon as they saw the Kuroda family's army coming, they immediately looked at the wind and surrendered. The Kuroda family had been coming to Wakasakura Ghost Town in Inhata Province, and the Yamana family had no idea of the existence of this army.

Wakasakura Ghost Town is the residence of the wealthy Yabe family, and the Yabe family owns Wakasakura Ghost Town and the surrounding land of nearly 12,000 stones, before the arrival of the Kuroda family, because of the blockade of the news by the concentric people, the city has not received any news at all, and when the Kuroda army came to the castle, it almost didn't even close the city gate, if it was directly attacked into the city by the Kuroda family, it would be really interesting. In the end, although the castle gate was finally closed, there was no time for the Yabe family to gather troops, and there were only a few kinship samurai and dozens of standing ashigaru in the castle.

If the ghost town of Wakazakura can gather the peasants and soldiers of the family, and there are nearly 400 people to defend the city, it will really take some effort for the Kuroda family to attack the castle at that time. But now in the face of dozens of enemies, there is no strength to fight at all. Although it is an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, the Yabe family of Wakazakura Oni Town is very tough compared to the Hongo family of Hamao Castle, and no matter how you persuade you to surrender, you just don't surrender to the Kuroda family.

Later, during the siege of the castle, although the Kuroda family occupied a large part of the city wall with a single charge under the leadership of the fierce general Tsuchihi Yahachi, the Yabe family retreated into the castle and retreated while fighting, and finally retreated to the Imperial Palace, where the castle lord and several relatives set fire to the Imperial Pavilion and committed suicide in the flames, turning into a smear of ashes under the flames.

Under the leadership of Hongo Kamitoyo, the army of Kodera Zhigao went all the way to Daozhu Castle in the west, and in the middle, a small wealthy family, the Takayama family, surrendered to the Kuroda family, thinking of the Takayama family. Kodera suddenly thought of a person, the Takayama clan, a mysterious figure known as the fox of Owari, who didn't know what was going on now.

So under the interest, Kotera Vocational High School recruited Hattori Masanari and asked him about the recent situation of this Takayama clan, and the reply was that this so-called Owari no Fox had not performed well recently, except for the good relationship with the monkey and the Maeda Toshiya, there was no other news.

Kodera shook his head, he finally has Kagawa Tadaji (Ina Tadaji) in his hand! There should be no problem with doing internal affairs tasks, but it turns out that it has been mixed to the extent that Oda Nobunaga has forgotten about it, and he is not blind to this person.

There is another subjugated wealthy family, the Otani clan, under the question of Otani Moriji, it turned out to be the same origin as himself, and the relationship is not far away, at his request, Koji Zhigao assigned the Otani clan of Inhata Country to Otani Moriji, and the Otani Moriji family, which has always been sparsely populated, finally has dozens of people at once, and Koji Zhigao knows Otani Moriji's thoughts, so as he wishes, Otani Moriji himself is indeed very happy.

Bamboo Castle on Kenjo Road, south of Hamao Castle, is the domain of the Iketani family, and the head of the Iketani family, Pondaya Toshige, is reluctant to subdue the Kuroda family, and even the repeated persuasion of Hongo Kamitoyo and Yamamoto Takazen together has no effect.

Daozhu Castle had already gathered more than 150 people before the arrival of the Kuroda family, and they were waiting for the attack of the Kuroda family on the city wall.
