Chapter 36 Draw Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron
Yamamoto Takaquan didn't dare to have any delay because he received the task, and immediately left the Kuroda family's camp. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info along the way fast horses, the same day came to the city of Tangzhucheng.
Although the Kuroda family and the Kono family are still at war, out of the most basic courtesy, Kono finally met with him.
When Yamamoto Takaquan entered the castle tower, all the people of the Kono family were already in place.
Yamamoto Takaquan saw the young governor of the Kono family, Kono Tongzhi, who was sitting on the main seat with a serious expression, although he was wearing civilian clothes, but the whole person seemed to be relatively energetic, and there was a sense of maturity that was extremely inconsistent with his age. Takashi Yamamoto is already experienced in a hundred battles, and he has seen many people, and some people's temperament can still be seen at a glance, and he can't fake it.
After the second glance of Yamamoto Takaquan, he saw the former family governor Kono Tsunobu sitting alone on the left, this is a middle-aged man with a good spirit, and the whole person feels very kind, at first glance, he is an elder who is willing to help others, and it should be a wise but ruthless person.
Finally, the retainers of the Kono family sitting on both sides, some with their heads down, some looking at themselves with their eyes flashing, and some looking overwhelmed and restless. He just smiled at this sapient being, and then walked straight to the middle of the big wide room and sat down on his own.
"Foreign Minister Kuroda family Yamamoto Takazen......" He was just about to bow down to Kono, but Kono waved his hand at him, and interrupted Yamamoto Takaquan's words with a speech.
"Your Excellency is Lord Yamamoto of the Kuroda family, and I already know it below. And the adult is a person who has a court official, so for the below, the adult does not need to be polite. And my lord is known as the first person in the Western Kingdom, I think I already know your intentions. But Lord Shaono, please forgive me for being young and ignorant in the next year, after all, this family is also a famous family in Iyo Province, and I will not submit to the Kuroda family. Kono said very directly.
In the past, when the Kuroda family bought officials, Yamamoto Takaquan, as an important member of the Kuroda family, obtained the official position of the key from the eighth rank. And in addition, Yamamoto Takaquan has indeed been the Kuroda family over the years, and has achieved a lot of mediation tasks, and his reputation for mediation has indeed spread, so Kono Tongzhi will call him so.
There is even a saying about Yamamoto Ryūquan that one Yamamoto Ryūquan can be exchanged for 100,000 stones, which is a lot of progress from the previous statement of 10,000 stones.
"Oh! Iyomoru Lord, have you really thought about it? And have you and all of you here agreed on this? I haven't said a lot of things yet, and you haven't listened to them, so why is Iyomori-sama so resolute about this? You must know that my Kuroda family came prepared this time, and the general of this way, although he is not the young master, but he is one of the three people in Mino Province before, Lord Ando, and he is a general who is admired by the young master very much. And the number of the family's army is as high as 11,000, does Iyomori-sama think the Kono family has a chance of winning? Takahon Yamamoto replied in surprise.
There are indeed very few daimyo like Kono Tsunao who don't even let others speak. If his behavior is seriously calculated, even a very rude act will cause unnecessary war between the two families.
"This ...... Lord Shaodian, my Kono family really has no chance of winning in the face of the Kuroda family's invasion of the four countries this time. But there is one thing that I think the Kuroda family is mistaken, and that is the position of the family. “
"Is Konoya's position?"
"Hmmm! It is the position of the main family, and there is no doubt that the family, as the famous family of Iyo Province and the guardian of Iyo Province for generations, will inevitably live and die with Iyo Province. And the Kuroda family has always been a wealthy family that asks for submission, and just for this reason, my Kono family will never agree. Kono told his reasoning.
"I see! Could it be that compared to the so-called name of the guardian of Iyo Province, Iyo-samaru would rather see the Kono family perish? Ryūquan Yamamoto asked loudly.
"The family would rather perish than spill its blood on the land of Iyo Province." The young Kono Tongzhi said stubbornly, and the former family governor Kono Tongxuan secretly shook his head.
"Iyomoru Amamoru means, I already know, in that case, how about listening to the conditions offered by my Kuroda family?"
"The conditions offered by the Kuroda family." Kono squinted at Takashiro Yamamoto.
"Hey! The conditions of my Kuroda family. ”
"Then let's talk about it Yamamoto-sama!"
"Hey! This condition may be more complicated, and it will be harsh for the Kono family, so I hope Iyomori and the adults will be mentally prepared. ”
"Harsh?" Kono looked a little surprised!
"Hey! In fact, what my Kuroda family has prepared for adults is another condition that is relatively more acceptable. But since adults can't accept the transfer, let's talk about another harsh condition. Yamamoto Takaquan said respectfully.
"What Lord Shaodian means is that although the conditions are very harsh, you don't need to be transferred, right?" Kono said excitedly.
"Hey! Lord Iyomori, it's like this, there is no need to transfer the seal, and you still have the Yuzhu Castle. ”
"Do you still have Tang Zhucheng, it's just that according to the practice of the Kuroda family, isn't it necessary for the subdued forces to be transferred?"
"But the Kono family is reluctant to reseal, and they still want to stay in Yuzuki Castle. So in the next courage, in private I am willing to fight for the conditions of the adults not to be transferred. That's why I said it was another harsh condition, because in order to keep the lord and the young lord from taking over the Kono family, the Kono family had to pay more price, and I said that is acceptable to Iyomori-sama? Yamamoto Takaquan said respectfully.
"I see, thank you Yamamoto-sama." Kono nodded straight.
"Lord Iyomori, don't thank you yet, wait for me to finish the conditions!"
"Hmmm! You say! I'm ready. Kono said straight.
Not only Kono Tongzhi, but Kono Tongxuan on the side, and the other Kono family people also looked at Yamamoto Takaquan at this time.
"All the wealthy clans under the command of the Kono family have been transferred to other countries owned by the Kuroda family, and the knowledge and deeds have been reduced by half, and the hostages have been sacrificed and the table has been lowered." Yamamoto said in a loud voice.
The purpose of the Kuroda family is very simple, through this move, all the big and small forces in the Kono family's territory will be dismembered, and after being transferred to various countries, the Kono family will only be an empty shell, so it will be a good move.
