When the Kuroda family finally won the battle of Oguchi Castle, Kuroda personally stepped up and went to Kotera Home Castle to report the entire battle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When the Kodera government heard of Kuroda's victory and went to the castle in person, he immediately held an evaluation of the ministers in the imperial office.

Kotera sat at the top of the assessment room, and although Kuroda was the head of the Kodera family, this time because it was a report, he sat in the middle of the assessment room, and the other important ministers of the family were divided into two sides, including Kushihashi Icho, who had just returned.

Kuroda recounted the entire battle process, starting from Mt. Tsukiki, to capturing several fortresses in one night, to persuading Ichikawa Castle to surrender, to attacking Oguchi Castle, and finally until the battle of Oguchi Castle was completed. Of course, things like the combat methods of some ninja armies are still a secret of the Kuroda family for the time being, so it's just a passing pass.

"Kuroda, then how much land did you get from the Takino Akamatsu family in this joint battle!" Kodera asked.

"Your Highness, the land occupied by the Eiga Miki family is not counted, and my Kuroda family has a preliminary estimate of the land occupied by the Kuroda family in this battle, and it is about 10,000 koku."

"Ten thousand stones" "Oh my God! The Kuroda family made a lot of money this time. "What luck!" "Congratulations Kuroda-sama" "10,000 koku won't you become a daimyo"

When the retainers on both sides heard the number of 10,000 stones, they immediately exploded, envy, jealousy and hatred abounded, of course, there were many who congratulated calmly, and some who belonged to those who had no real power simply shut up, and if they didn't speak, they wouldn't offend people, no matter which side they couldn't afford to offend!

At this time, a retainer sitting on the right spoke, "Lord, if I remember correctly, the family's territory is only less than 40,000 koku in total, and the direct collar is only 20,000 koku, Kuroda-sama has easily obtained 10,000 koku of land, plus the 6,000 koku of Himeji Castle, it is already close to the direct collar of the main family, this is not good!" Kuroda-sama. ”

Kuroda glanced to the right.,This person is Fujioka Kuro, the general of the Kotera family.,Speaking of this person.,Actually, it's really related to the Kuroda family.,The Kuroda family's ashigaru general Goto Kikuni (Goto and Soldier Keiji's father,Originally, he was a retainer of other houses.,For the sake of another guard,,It's the first to come over) is this person's own brother.,Because he and Goto Kikuni fought for the inheritance of the family at the beginning.,So the relationship is not harmonious.。 After Fujioka Kuro used some shady means to obtain the inheritance of the family, he became an important minister of the Kodera family. And the defeated Goto Keikuni was kicked out of his house, and he was taken in by Kuroda Zhitaka and left the Kuroda family, so Fujioka Kuro also held a grudge against the Kuroda family who took in Goto Kikoku. So this time the Kuroda family obtained a large piece of land, and the first one to be unhappy was Fujioka Kuro, who was afraid that his brother would also be rewarded this time, so what if he retaliated against himself in the future.

Kuroda actually knew about the grievances between Goto Kikuni and Fujioka Kuro, but because they were both retainers of the Kodera family, he took in Goto Kikuni, who almost became a ronin. He knew Fujioka Kuro's dirty thoughts, and he didn't have the idea of self-reliance, but Kuroda saw that after Fujioka Kuro finished speaking, Kodera Masashi looked at him a little wrong. He still sighed in his heart, the lord of the small temple political office! It's still the suspicious lord.

Kuroda immediately bowed to the political office of Kojira, "My lord, this time Kuroda Zhitaka can get so much land, it is all the gift of the lord, so there is a request here, I hope the lord can agree." ”

"What request? Let's hear it. When Kodera heard that he had a request, he immediately leaned forward, for fear that he would miss a word that Kuroda had said.

"I hope that the lord will recover the territory of the six thousand stones of Kuroda Home Castle Himeji Castle." Kuroda said loudly on the ground.

"Return Himeji Castle" "Kuroda-sama is really a loyal minister" "Six thousand stones"

"When you return Himeji Castle, the Kuroda family will be farther and farther away from the Imperial Palace, and the Kuroda family won't really want to stand on their own!" Unexpectedly, Kuroda had just finished speaking, and Fujioka Kuro did not give up and continued.

Kuroda rarely gets angry, but this time, Fujioka Kuro's aggressiveness makes Kuroda really angry. Kuroda turned back to Fujioka Kuro with a smile and said, "Fujioka-sama, in your opinion, how should my Kuroda family act to your satisfaction?" If I don't give you a thousand stones from Xiaokou Castle, do you dare to go? In this royal evaluation room, you are the lord, or your highness is the lord. And it's good that you're the old man of your family, you're a small general, or someone who used a conspiracy to kill your brother's superiority, what qualifications do you have to accuse me. ”

"I ......" Hearing Kuroda reveal his shortcomings, several important ministers around him knew a little bit, covered their mouths and snickered, Fujioka Kuro's face turned red, and he immediately stood up, and wanted to rush forward to reason with Kuroda Jobaka.

"Presumptuous, Fujioka, you sit down for me." The political position of Koji scolded loudly, but the lord had no choice but to speak, and Fujioka Jiuro had no choice but to sit down.

"Kuroda-kun, what you said is a bit too much." Kotera also said that Kuroda was a stick, after all, he had been the lord for so long, balancing the relationship between the retainers, and the Kotera government would still be able to.

"My lord, I have crossed over, in order to avoid criticism from the family, or I will return the six thousand stones near Koguchi Castle on the side of Takino Castle to my family, my lord, you can see it. When Ishikawa rebelled last year, he said that only if the main family is strong, the Kuroda family can be strong, and he will never betray his family because of a little land. This is the case in the face of the land of the Ishikawa family, and the same is true in the face of the land of the Takino Palace, but His Highness still remembers what the Takinoden said when he took out 35,000 stone of land to take over the land, the Kuroda family has guarded Himeji Castle for the family since his father, and has always been conscientious, and has never had the heart to rebel for decades. Once again, please believe in the loyalty of my Kuroda family, and the Kuroda family will die for the foundation of the lord. Kuroda said again.

The first time the important ministers below heard that Akamatsu Masahide actually used 35,000 stone to extend the Kuroda family, and was rejected by Kuroda Zhitaka, and now you Fujioka Kuro said that the Kuroda family will rebel because of 10,000 stones, and it is estimated that even the pigs don't believe it, even Fujioka Jiuro himself has shut his mouth.

Kodera Masashi listened to Kuroda's words and found that it seemed that Kuroda was more loyal, and immediately pouted because of his distrust of Kuroda just now.

"Lord Kuroda, I'm wrong about you." Kodera immediately sat up straight, bowed to Kuroda, and said ashamedly.

"My lord, you must not do this, I am only a retainer of the lord, as long as the lord believes in the loyalty of the Kuroda family, it is enough. My lord, in addition to returning Himeji Castle, there are two more requests. ”

"Oh, tell me about it."

"The first one, because of this dispatch of troops, thanks to the Kushihashi family's troops, to help protect the territory of Himeji Castle, so I hope that after the return of Himeji Castle, His Highness can reward the Kushibashi family with a thousand stone of land. The second is that because the newly occupied land has delayed the spring ploughing, the autumn harvest will definitely be delayed, and the people of the new territory must be appeased. ”

As a branch of the Koji family, the Kushibashi family received 2,000 stone land in Shifang City, and this time the army was actually Kuroda Zhitaka wooing Kushibashi Iding, the future in-law. Moreover, the Kushihashi family only sent two hundred people to be stationed on the earth weapon mountain, and did not participate in any war, and this thousand stones were simply given by the Kuroda family for nothing. Of course, it is also by the way to further close the relationship with the Kushibashi family, so that it can become his ally at home.

The other retainers all knew about the twists and turns, although they were extremely envious, but they had nothing to say, who told others to give birth to two lovely daughters!

"The Kushibashi family did have a meritorious role in this battle, just as Kuroda-kun said that he would reward a thousand stones. As for the second one! Kuroda-kun, I have decided, the Kuroda family has made a meritorious contribution to defending the territory and opening up the territory, and the land occupied by the Kuroda family in this joint battle will be given to the Kuroda family, and the 3,000 koku north of Himeji Castle will be given to the family's adopted son, Kotera Takahisa-sama, as for the money and food you said, you can go back and discuss with Kotera Takahisa-sama yourself! What you discuss is a matter between your brothers, and I don't care. Kuroda-kun, do you think that's good? ”

Kuroda Jobaka bowed three times to Kotera Politics, "The kindness of the Kotera family, the Kuroda family will never forget, and the Kuroda family will definitely serve the public wholeheartedly, go to the soup for the Kotera family, and never give up." ”

"Okay, this matter is decided, I hope you can serve your family wholeheartedly, like the Kuroda family, as long as you have merit, your family will not hesitate to reward."

"Hey!"
