Anyway, Akamatsu Masahide sent out the text, as for whether the so-called retainers of the Akamatsu family will respond, only the ghost knows, in fact, Akamatsu Masahide has made enemies everywhere over the years, and he himself knows in his heart that no one will respond, but he still has to get by on face.

As a result, after the final document was issued, the result was that the Urakami family claimed that they were independent of the Akamatsu family and were the Sengoku daimyos, so what happened to the Akamatsu family had nothing to do with them. It's not just irrelevant, the Urakami family should be snickering, the more chaotic the Akamatsu family is, the more chaotic the Harima country is, the more in line with the interests of Urakami Sokage.

The Kotera family was the first to reply in Harima, declaring that he supported Akamatsu Yoshisuke, and only Akamatsu Yoshisuke was the orthodox heir of Akamatsu, and Akamatsu Harumasa had been abolished by the Akamatsu family, so he would not recognize the rule of Akamatsu Harumasa, and in the future, he would only serve the Akamatsu Yoshisuke who was against the salt, and if Takino Castle made a move against the salt city, the Imperial Castle would fully support the salt temple and fight against Takino Castle to the end.

Later, the Bessho family also claimed to support the rule of Yoshisuke Akamatsu and did not recognize Akamatsu Harumasa of Takino Castle. After Kodera and Bessho expressed their support, the other families of Kamitsuki, Miki, Kamiyoshi, and Takasago expressed their support for Yoshisuke Akamatsu of Shiojo to protect Harima Province.

In the entire Harima country, only the Uno clan supported Akamatsu Masahide, and Akamatsu Masahide's father, Akamatsu Murahide, was once the adopted son of Uno Masahide, the head of Uno, so the two families maintained an alliance for a long time, but Uno only superficially said that he supported Akamatsu Harumasa, and did not say that he would send troops. It is estimated that he just wants to move with the camera, if Akamatsu Masahide loses, he will not move, or a loyal minister of salt and Akamatsu, if Akamatsu Masahide wins, it is estimated that he will immediately raise troops to support, and in the troubled times of the Warring States, self-preservation is the most important thing.

Such a result has long been psychologically prepared for Akamatsu Masahide, so it is relatively calm. But for Akamatsu Harimasa, who was eager to take back the ruling power of the Shiojo and Akamatsu families, it was almost equivalent to the rebellion of all the retainers, which was a great blow to him. Of course, this has something to do with his own ruling policies in Harima Province, and it is also the result of relying too much on and indulging Akamatsu Masahide. Everything was of his own making, and he couldn't blame anyone.

Although it is not recognized, since Akamatsu Masahide has decided to support Akamatsu Harimasa, the superficial work still needs to be done. So Akamatsu Masahide gathered his retainers and gathered his troops, preparing to attack Akamatsu Yoshiyuke in Shiojo. And the fast horse that entered the Imperial Castle mentioned earlier was a request for troops from Shiojo, hoping that the political position of Koji would immediately send troops to fight with Takino Castle.

Hearing the news that Takino Castle was going to attack Shioshio Castle, Wanyoshi had been thinking about how the Kuroda family should profit from this joint battle.

First of all, Takino Castle's attack on Zhiyancheng should just be an attitude to help Akamatsu Harumasa recapture Zhiyancheng, Akamatsu Masahide is a smart person, he will never fight his capital for Akamatsu Harumasa, and the result of this battle is definitely a confrontation in the end, and then it ends in a tiger.

Secondly, after a year of development, and because of the abundant grain harvest and the expansion of the territory by 1,000 koku, the Kuroda family has recently attracted a lot of homeless and ronin samurai, and the population has increased, and the number of soldiers has also increased, and the number of troops has reached more than 700 people, including 400 peasant soldiers. However, once there is a move against Takino Castle, I am most afraid that Takino Castle will immediately counterattack, after all, this time it is rumored that Takino Castle has gathered an army of 3,000 people, and if you want to gain benefits alone, you may face a strong backlash from Takino's side.

Third, the Kuroda family, as a retainer of the Koji family, should need to act with the main family, which means that under normal circumstances, they will be deployed with the Kotera family to meet the enemy within the range of Yancheng in the north. If they want to make a profit this time, the Kuroda family must act alone and attack the land of Tatsuno Castle to the west, and the Kuroda family must be fully armed, so the guards of Himeji Castle will need internal reinforcement to help them, otherwise they will occupy the land of Akamatsu Masahide and lose their territory, and they will not be able to gain benefits either.

After thinking of this, Wanji already had his own plan in his head, and what he needed to do now was to wait for Kuroda and Kushihashi Iding to go to the city.

After Kuroda held a meeting at home, because none of the important ministers in the family put forward good strategic advice, Kuroda began to miss the days when Wanji was still in his home, and during that time, everyone didn't have to do anything, just listen to Wanyoshi's orders, it's really capable! So Kuroda came anxiously to Gosho Castle and asked to see Manyoshi. After all, as Wanji's biological father, and Kotera Masashi now trusts the Kuroda family very much, so Kodera Masashi happily agreed to Kuroda Shitaka to meet Manyoshi.

"Wanji, I can be regarded as seeing you." Kuroda was very happy to see Manyoshi

"Yes, Father, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I have a lot to say to you." Wanyoshi said calmly, carefully handing a note to Kuroda Itakaka.

Kuroda quickly took the note, and turned around to make sure that no one was behind him before opening it. There are only a few simple sentences on it: "Unite with Miki and Chouqiao to attack and protect, divide the land, return part of the land of the family, and leave the population." ”

Because he was afraid that the wall would have ears, Wanji couldn't tell Kuroda about his plan directly, so he could only write a small note and give it to him. Kuroda nodded to Manyoshi, indicating that he fully understood the meaning of the note. Wan Ji also nodded, indicating that he was relieved.

Wan Ji nodded and asked in a happy tone, "How are my father and my mother doing?" ”

"Everything is fine at home, your mother is pregnant, she is almost six months old, and she will soon give you another brother or sister."

"That's a good thing! The family became more prosperous. ”

"Also, I recently took in two new side rooms, one is the princess of the Kamiyoshi family, and the other is the niece of the mother's Kobei, both of them are outstanding samurai women, and they are also very respectful to your mother, what I didn't expect is that the two of them are also pregnant so soon."

"Really? My father is amazing! The Kuroda family has more heirs, and the strength will be stronger! Although he was joking, Wan Ji began to worry about his mother, who could no longer be pampered alone, whether he would be snubbed by his father, although he tried his best to hide it, but there was still a little worry on his face.

"Okay, Wanji, don't worry, your mother is the main room, and I am very affectionate with your mother, take the two side rooms, just to add heirs to my Kuroda family, and make friends with the Kamiyoshi family, so you can rest assured that what you want will not happen."

Wanji knew that the relationship between his father and mother was indeed not bad, especially after he crossed over, the extraordinary wisdom and vision he showed made his father even more jealous of his relationship with Mrs. Iwa, which may affect whether Wanji will contribute to the Kuroda family. So as long as Wan Ji has always performed well, Mrs. Yan will not be left out in the cold, which is indeed Wan Ji's heart.

"How to convince the lord depends on my father and Lord Kushihashi." Wanji whispered.

"Father, has the spring ploughing begun at home?"

"Oh! Yes, the spring ploughing at home has begun, and all the retainers are working hard for the spring ploughing, and the new technology has begun to be promoted, so Wanji can rest assured. ”

"That's good, although the battle must be fought, but the harvest of the family is the foundation of the family, and it is the most important thing!"

"Wanji is right, there is still this time, our samurai longhouse, no, let's call it longhouse! It is true that a couple of good retainers were received. ”

"Oh! Who are they, let's hear it. This time, Wanji became interested.

"The ronin samurai did take a few, and there was nothing outstanding. Among the craftsmen was a young man named Anjing Doton, who was very good at building cities, dams, and irrigating agriculture. ”

Wanyoshi thought to himself that a famous person who participated in the establishment of Osaka Castle and excavated Dotonbori was of course not simple, and it seemed that there would be no need to worry about building the castle, excavating flood control and irrigation projects in the future.

"A monk named Mt. Hiei, who was trained in Kyoto, and his medical skills were indeed very high, and he found out that your mother had an old disease, but fortunately it had been cured, otherwise according to him, he would not have lived long."

"Then please go back and thank the monks of the whole sect for me." Wanji only remembered at this time, it seems that in history, Mrs. Iwa did die of illness when Kuroda Takataka was a child, but fortunately, he proposed to recruit people of various professions as retainers, otherwise Mrs. Iwa would probably die as early as in history. This person should be the whole sect of the Medicine Academy! He studied medicine with Michizo Kojinaase in Kyoto, and he learned the essence of it, and it seems that in history, he was also an expert in internal affairs!

"I've thanked the monk of the whole sect, but he didn't want anything, he just said that he wanted to build a temple of the Tiantai sect in his family as a branch temple of Enryakuji Temple on Mt. Hiei, and I have agreed."
