Chapter 177: But I Ask for Death

"But now, there are nearly 3,000 soldiers of the Otomo family outside, these people were originally just the people of Chikuzen Province, but they were brought here by adults, they are fighting against the army of my Kuroda family for the sake of adults, for the sake of the Otomo family, because of your previous decision. Lord Toji, in your eyes, you don't need to care about the life and death of these people at all, and you can let them be slaughtered by your own family? Kuroda asked suddenly.

Obviously, with such a way of lure, it is no longer easy to convince Toji Kanlian, speaking of which, the conditions of 70,000 stone high proposed by the Kuroda family are already very generous, and this 70,000 stone is already an absolute bigwig-level existence in the Kuroda family, you must know that even if it is Koji Takahisa, Itetomo and Matsui Shigetaka, they are the uncles of Kuroda Vocational High School, and the absolute boss of the Kuroda family is only 200,000 stone of land, and the mother of Kobei as an old minister of the Three Dynasties, and it is even likely to be an old minister of the Four Dynasties, It's only 150,000 stones.

Seeing that such a good condition was proposed, Toji Kanren was still unmoved, and he knew that in terms of loyalty, he was likely to have a fight with Yamanaka Yuimori, which means that it was almost impossible to subdue him through a fief. Therefore, Kuroda Vocational High School may be able to save the country by thinking of other ways.

"Danzheng-sama, you seem to have said something wrong."

"Oh! What's wrong? I would like to hear about it. ”

"These subordinates are all loyal samurai and soldiers of my Otomo family, and these people were indeed brought from Chikuzen Province by me and Kiusu-sama, but now that I have an opportunity to be loyal to the Otomo family, it is really the glory of my life and the glory of their life. Now, as the adults said, these people are fighting to the death against the Kuroda family's army outside, which is their responsibility.

Even if all the people of this army die in this city valley because of this, we will not hesitate and will never flinch. Not just the next person, but all these people outside will continue to fight with the Kuroda family to the end for the honor of my Otomo family. Lord Danzheng, please don't insult our honor in this way, just let me live like a samurai between heaven and earth! ”

"Adults are really stubborn!"

"What about stubbornness?"

"Toji-sama, you must know that many times, people really don't just live for others, there are many meanings in life, don't adults think about their own families, if adults die, how should they deal with themselves? And many times people are selfish, adults are really so sure, those people outside are willing to die for the Otomo family? ”

"If they are unwilling to serve the Otomo family, then I shouldn't worry about their life and death." Toji Kanren asked rhetorically at this time.

"This ...... I don't know what to say when you say that, but do you really just use them as tools? They are also born and raised by their parents, they also have their own families, and they also have their own reasons for living, why are adults so cruel? Kuroda said loudly.

"Cruel, my lord says cruel, it's ridiculous. But this era is like this, this is the cruel era of a person who eats people, even his own parents and brothers can be killed, not to mention these untouchables, we grew up between heaven and earth, and have been given our respective roles, how can we not participate in this cruel and chaotic world? ”

"Having said that, it's just ......" Kuroda Vocational High School was about to say, but was interrupted by Toji Kenren.

"This is originally an era of life and death, just like the Kuroda family can defeat the Otomo family, if the Kuroda family does not completely defeat the family now, so that the family or other local daimyos, wealthy clans, and countrymen in Kyushu can continue to survive, then in the end, it is likely that these people will get up at a specific time period and bite the Kuroda family hard, is this what Kuroda-sama wants to see?

Just like my Otomo family would never have thought that there would be such a powerful family like the Kuroda family, which was just a small wealthy family in Harima Country that had not even heard of the name more than ten years ago, would develop so rapidly in the past ten years, and began to threaten the suppression of Kyushu by my Otomo family, and even threatened my existence.

To be honest, no one could have imagined it, no one could have imagined it, hahaha!! Isn't the situation that the Otomo family is currently facing cruel? Isn't it cruel that the two sides have lost thousands of soldiers since the beginning of the fighting years ago? Please Kuroda-sama retract the word cruelty, because this is a portrayal of this era, and no one can blame it. ”

"No, Toji-sama, I think you're wrong, and very wrong."

"Oh! What did Kuroda-sama say about this? Tojikanren narrowed his right eye and looked at Kuroda Vocational High School opposite.

"The reason why I say that adults are cruel is not just about the soldiers outside, but because I see this era very clearly, this is indeed an era of cannibalism by one person, and it is an era in which no one can hesitate, because a slight delay in time may cause his own death and the decline of the entire family, which my lord just said.

But this era is also an era that we should resist, because too many people have lost everything for it, so we should hate this era and cherish it even more.

And if you really hate this era, you should use all your strength to change such an unjust era. Shigeharu Takenaka, the military advisor of the family, once hoped to change his lord so that he could take on his responsibilities, but he was disappointed, so he made the feat of taking the city with sixteen people that year.

At that time, I was just a teenager, and in order to recruit Takenaka Shigeharu-sama, I left Harima Province with a few attendants and came to Omi Province, and found Takenaka-sama Shigeharu, who had left the Saito family, and took him under my command. Do you know why Shigeharu Takenaka was willing to serve me in that special environment at that time, and was willing to serve me, who was only a teenager at the time? ”

"I don't know about it, and I don't want to know it, I hope that adults won't waste their tongues anymore, and they just want to die."
