Chapter Thirty-Seven: Kono's Surrender

In addition to transferring all the large and small forces in the Kono family's territory to various countries, so that the Kono family is only an empty shell. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe Kono family's powerful retainers, large and small wealthy clans, and countrymen's vassal forces control nearly half of the Kono family's 100,000 koku land, and now all the land they hold has been halved and transferred, if this proposal is reached, it means that the Kuroda clan has obtained more than 20,000 koku of Kono clan's land for nothing through peaceful means.

And one more, and most importantly. Ryūquan Yamamoto has been emphasizing before that there is a non-harsh submission condition for the Kono family and everyone in the family. Now because the Kono family's governor Kono is determined not to be resealed, he can only choose this kind of harsh and even excessive conditions for everyone. In order to survive, in order to be able to hug the thighs of the Kuroda family, they agreed to this condition, what do you say these wealthy families and countrymen under the command of the Kono family will think?

In addition, Yamamoto Takaquan also sent a signal to everyone present that the Kuroda family welcomes everyone to come and submit to the Kuroda family. Since the Kuroda family is so tolerant, even if Kono Tozunao refuses the Kuroda family's submission request, when he marches in the future, as long as he wants to survive, he will still use his brain to choose carefully!

Anyway, no matter how Kono chooses, it is definitely the Kuroda family that will profit in the end, which is the purpose of Yamamoto Takaquan now.

If it is really transferred out, they should have paid a small price, but now they have to give half of the territory, who will this account be counted on? It should be in their eyes, the young and ignorant lord who is sitting on the throne now!

Because of Kono, half of the land is missing, so it should be difficult for them to continue to think about the Kono family!

"Is it halved?" "Wouldn't it be too harsh?" "It's better than perishing!" "Yes! At least the family can be saved. "Originally, Yamamoto-sama also said that it would be more harsh." "I could have kept eighty percent of the land!" "It seems so, my lord...... Ay! "The lord is still young." "It is"

"Ladies and gentlemen, please listen to what Yamamoto-sama says, Yamamoto-sama's words should not be finished yet!" Faced with the situation that has now become a mess of porridge, Kono Tongzhi slammed the folding fan in his hand on the ground, making a relatively large movement, and everyone looked at him, and after Dahiroma was also quiet a lot, he said loudly and indifferently.

The folding fan in his hand had been completely broken off because of the excessive force and could no longer be used. It is said that this fan was made by a famous artist in Kyoto, so it is very precious, and Kono himself is very cherished, but now it is a pity that it has been destroyed.

The reason why Kono Tsunao behaves like this is because of the purpose of the Kuroda family, and Kono Tonao, who has been in charge of the family for a while, can probably be seen.

But what's the use of seeing it? As Ryūquan Yamamoto said just now, the Kuroda family is pressing the border with heavy troops this time, and it can be said that the Kono family is fully assembled to fight with the Kuroda family, and there is also not much chance. Even if he was able to temporarily repel Ando's army this time, there was still an army of 20,000 people in Kuroda's high office.

Are you an opponent of Kuroda Vocational High School? Kono Tong asked himself in his heart that it was definitely not, the Kuroda family used this time to suppress people's yang strategy. Now that things have been like this, Kono still seems relatively calm now. Since resistance can't achieve any effect, and it may ruin the fate of the family, it is better to listen to the conditions of the Kuroda family first.

"Second, the Kono family has 50,000 koku, and it is allowed to keep the 10,000 koku of Yuzuki Castle, and in the same way, the Kono family offers hostages and surrenders, and if the adults agree, the Kuroda family accepts the submission of the Kono family."

10,000 koku was stipulated in Edo, and it was the most basic condition for becoming a daimyo, and the Kuroda family left the number of 10,000 koku to the Kono family, which was to put it bluntly, it was just to save face for the Kono family, and almost everything that the other Kono families had was deprived by the Kuroda family.

If you want to say that the Kuroda family is ruthless, this move is really ruthless, but it just saves face for the Kono family, but it poachs all the big and small forces under all the other people's subordinates, and makes these big and small forces hate the Kono family to some extent.

Even other people's land has almost taken away most of it, and if you want others to submit, ordinary people will not agree to it! But it's better not to agree, the Kuroda family can get 100,000 stone of land through the war, and this is a net profit.

"Isn't there any other condition for the Kuroda family?" Kono asked.

"No, that's it." Takaquan Yamamoto said.

After Yamamoto Takahun finished speaking, Kono immediately began to bow his head and think, and everyone also shifted their eyes from Yamamoto Takahun to him.

Suddenly, Kono Tong glanced directly at Kono Tongxuan, and Kono Tongxuan nodded with difficulty.

"Lord Shaodian, the family is willing to accept the two conditions of the Kuroda family, and the Kono family is willing to submit to the Kuroda family." Kono said straightforwardly, and as soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the Kono family below breathed a sigh of relief, and there was no need to start a war with the Kuroda family.

"Yamamoto-sama, there's a question down there." At this time, a young samurai suddenly asked Yamamoto Takatsu.

"This Lord is ......"

"I'm lucky enough to be able to meet adults at Shimokono's house."

"It turned out to be the eldest son of the late Lord Kurishima (Tongkang)! I was disrespectful under it. I don't know what's wrong with adults! Ryūquan Yamamoto asked with a smile.

"If you're willing to accompany your lord, I wonder if the Kuroda family can agree?" Detsu Notoko asked loudly.

"The land is kept in half." Takaquan Yamamoto said.

The Tono family is a wealthy family of Iyo Province, a lineage of important ministers of the Kono family, and they have 8,000 koku of land, and Yamamoto Takashi has reduced it to 1,600 koku in one sentence.

"The lord, I have received a lot of kindness from the Kono family in the next, and I am willing to stay and continue to serve the lord." Gotta Noto Tongxing said.

If you are lucky enough to be willing to stay, it doesn't mean that everyone else is a fool, there is a big difference between reducing half of Zhixing and reducing it to only 20%. In the end, except for one person, everyone else was willing to reseal.

There is also a reason why I can be lucky.,As the eldest son of Toyasu on the island.,But it's a concubine who has no right to inherit.,So I've not been treated well on the island since I was a child.。

However, he is more fortunate that he and Kono Tongnao grew up together, and they have always had a good relationship, and when he gave Kono Tongxuan a small surname, he was appreciated by Kono Tongxuan, so he was able to get the opportunity to become the adopted son of the famous Iyo family and inherit his reputation.
