The Kuroda family has nearly 120,000 koku of land in the several counties occupied by the Izumo family, and because of the death of Yoshikawa Motoharu, they are all borderless lands, so they can be rewarded to some wealthy families and countrymen who are newly attached to the Kuroda family, how can it be returned to the Niko family?

The land in the remaining four counties occupied by Yamanaka Yukimori is mostly mountainous, and there are only less than 70,000 koku, so Yamanaka Yukimori will have an opinion, and it is not unreasonable, because he thinks that things must be from the perspective of the Niko family, and he feels that the Kuroda family, an ally, has once again deceived the Niko family after the matter of the hidden ambiguity.

It's just that these have nothing to do with the Yoshimi family, who is far away in Iwami Province and has been besieged by the Kuroda family, because what they see in front of them is the army of the 8,000 Kuroda family, and how to get through the difficulties in front of them is the problem they need to consider. The Yoshimi family is now at a life-and-death juncture, and the entire Hamada Castle is in a tense atmosphere.

The governor of the Yoshimi family, Yoshimi Masayori, the former agent of the Mori family in Iwami Province, is now in the imperial hall of Honmaru, holding a small wine saucer, watching the moonlight and drinking, not knowing what he is thinking.

"Lord, it's not good, the outside has been besieged by the Kuroda family." The one who came to report was Yoshimi Masayori's fifth brother, Yoshimi Yorimori.

"The Kuroda family is already besieging the city, isn't it, how many people are here?" Yoshimi asked, but his expression was not surprised, obviously after the Maori family was defeated and subdued, the appearance of the Kuroda family in this place was even more expected.

"There are no less than seven or eight thousand people in the Kuroda family, and we have less than eight hundred people in the city, brother, how should we act?" Yoshimi Yorimori asked anxiously.

In response to his brother's question, Yoshimi Masayori did not answer directly, but asked: "Since the Kuroda family is here, I guess Iwami Province is now a group of surrenderers!" Who else in Iwami Province has not submitted to the Kuroda family? ”

"As far as I knew before, only Masuda Fujikane, and the other Inoue and other families have either been exterminated or have already surrendered to the Kuroda family." Yoshimi Yorimori said.

"Masuda Fujikane? He is really an outstanding samurai with integrity, and there are very few such characters in the entire Iwami country. It's just a pity that he is a loyal servant of the Maori family, not my Iwami Kuniyoshi family. Yoshimi Masari sighed.

"He is indeed a loyal servant of the Maori family, but after the Kuroda family deals with us, Masuda Fujikane probably won't be able to escape!" Yoshimi Yorimori said with some frustration.

"Gorou, don't be depressed, there are some things that are originally the fate of my generation as a martial artist, and I can't escape it. Since in Iwami Province and even the entire Western Country, the Kuroda family is already unstoppable, and the main family can only fight to the death with the Kuroda family. Yoshimi Masari said loudly, and after speaking, he slammed the wine saucer on the ground, as if he had made up his mind to die.

"But brother, when the Kuroda family came to persuade him to surrender......

"Their conditions are too harsh." Yoshimi Masari sighed and said, this alone knew that his previous determination to resist was not as firm as it seemed.

"And what are their conditions?"

"The Kuroda family asked us to leave Iwami and transfer to Iyo Province, and the family's 50,000 koku land can only keep 5,000 koku." Yoshimi said.

"What...... With only five thousand stones, this is really something completely unacceptable. Yoshimi Yorimori said in surprise.

"Maybe there's another possibility." Yoshimi Masayori gritted his teeth at this time and squinted his eyes and said.

"Brother means ......"

"Hmmm! That's right, maybe from the very beginning, the Kuroda family didn't think about subjugating the family at all, and maybe they wanted the family to follow in the footsteps of the Ogasawara family and become history from then on! Only in this way will they be able to take all the land of their own family, the Kuroda family will always be so greedy, sooner or later, God will punish the Kuroda family. ”

"What my brother said is right, since this is the case, there is no way out for the family now, so let's fight with the Kuroda family!" Yoshimi Yorimori shouted angrily.

"Hmmm! That's why it's right, so let the flames of war bear witness to the name of the samurai of my Iwami Kuniyoshi family! Yoshimi said.

"Hey!"

At this time, in the camp of the Kuroda family, the people of the Kuroda family were discussing the siege of the city.

"Hamada Castle is indeed a fortified city!" Okamoto said.

This Okamoto clan was originally an important minister of Urakami Sokei, because the Kuroda family defeated and eliminated Urakami Sokei in the Second Battle of Murozu Castle, so he took refuge in the Kuroda family and became a retainer of the Kuroda family.

Okamoto Hide, who was originally a land of 3,000 koku, became 2,000 koku after surrendering to the Kuroda family. However, in recent years, with the Kuroda family's southern and northern wars, there are now 4,000 stone in the territory, which can be regarded as the group of people who are below the old age of the Kuroda family and have more land.

Okamoto Shishu is very satisfied with this, after all, as a general, he can follow the Kuroda family all the way to develop, and he is already very grateful to the Kuroda family.

And he is still very clear about his own ability, look at the original Kuroda family's original Tsuchihi Yahachi, Miyata Miyata Mitsuji and others, and then look at the Takenaka Shigeji, Hanafang Masayuki, Mibu Kyojiro, Takeuchi Hisamori, and Sanada Masanobu who sat opposite him, either a person with outstanding wisdom or extraordinary martial arts, the Kuroda family did not give up on himself because of his lack of ability, which also made him very grateful.

"Lord Mizumasa, I think that in the face of Hamada Castle now, we can solve some troubles by persuading them to surrender." Sanada Masayuki said at this time.

Don't look at Sanada Masayuki as a twenty-one-year-old young man, but since he joined the Kuroda family at the age of fifteen, his abilities have been slowly known to everyone in the Kuroda family. And under the influence of Kuroda Vocational High School and Takenaka Shigeji, although the problem of liking to use strange schemes has not been completely reversed, but he has been able to accept the concept of positive and strange harmony.

The current Sanada Masayuki is actually more comprehensive than the person in history who is more comprehensive in terms of resourcefulness. It can be said that if he becomes more mature in time, he will inevitably exceed the height of the original history in military learning.

Especially this time, he led 2,000 people, and together with Dawn Nobuen and Yamanaka Yukimori of the Niko family, after defeating Yoshikawa Motoharu of the Maori family, he became a hot new star of the Kuroda family, who made him a celebrity around Kuroda Vocational High School, and he can be regarded as a young man.
