Chapter 58 Forming an alliance with the Nizi family
Two days later, Yamamoto Ryuquan went to Tsukiyama Tomita Castle under the leadership of Tachihara Hisatsuna, and the reason why Tachihara Hisatsuna agreed to bring him was because the Kuroda family returned more than 40 iron cannons from the Niko family to Tachihara Kuzuna in order to show harmony, and used his own iron cannon (the defective product eliminated by Suzuki Shigetari's reserve), and now he was finally relieved, and he didn't have to worry about being killed by Niko Yoshihisa, so he personally asked for the job of introduction, which can be regarded as expressing his gratitude. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Gassan Tomita Castle is indeed the fortified city of the Western Kingdom!" Yamamoto Takatsu said with a sigh.
When you come to the castle town, you can see the outline of Gassan Tomita Castle from a distance. There are stone walls that look very solid, snow-white walls that have been plastered with lime, large gates covered in iron sheets, and the towering three-story castle tower, which will make you sigh when you see it from afar. Of course, this is also the person of this era, if Kuroda Vocational High School sees it, it is estimated that it will only be a glance or two.
"Alright Yamamoto-sama, let's get into the city! In this way, it is good to see the lord as soon as possible, so as not to delay the business. Tachihara urged.
"Okay, that's exactly what Tachihara-sama said." Takahiro Yamamoto said with a smile.
Because of entering the city early in the morning, Niko Yoshihisa hadn't gotten up yet, so the two waited for a long time in Ninomaru to be summoned. And when Niko Yoshihisa walked into the room, he was still yawning, obviously not waking up yet, and Yamamoto Takashi despised him a little in his heart.
Because of his appearance, Takashi Yamamoto unconsciously thought of the young master of the family, the high school of the temple, who is also the second generation of officials, and the difference is really big! At this time, the young master should have finished reading the book and is ready to practice swordsmanship!
"In the Shimokuroda family, Yamamoto Takatsu, I am fortunate to meet His Royal Highness Izumo Taishou." Yamamoto said after bowing respectfully.
"I've seen my lord," Tachihara said.
"Well, the Kuroda family's Yamamoto-sama is here...... What's going on? Halfway through speaking, Yoshihisa Niko yawned again, but this time he knew to cover his mouth with a fan.
"The foreign minister came this time to send a message to Lord Yun Taishou on behalf of the head of the family, hoping to form an alliance on behalf of the Kuroda family and the Niko family." Ryūquan Yamamoto said solemnly to Yoshihisa Niko.
"Oh! Why did the family form an alliance with the Kuroda family? Niko Yoshihisa asked curiously as he looked at Yamamoto Takatsu.
"Don't you want to defeat the Maori family? Don't you want to recapture Iwami Ginzan? Ryūquan Yamamoto asked.
"Iwami Ginzan." When Yoshihisa Niko heard this name, his eyes lit up.
"Yes, the Kuroda family is willing to form an alliance with the Niko family, as long as the two families form an alliance, we can attack the Maori family with all our strength, and as long as the Maori family attacks any of us, the other family can take advantage of the situation to attack the Maori family, and then the Kuroda family will only take the three kingdoms of Anyu, Bichu, and Bigo, and the other Maori lands will be given up by Lord Taishou?" Takahiro Yamamoto said with a smile.
When Yoshihisa Niko heard this, he suddenly stood up, "Yamamoto-sama, is what you said true?" Does the family still have a chance to destroy the Maori family? Can you also get the territory of several countries? ”
"Yes, my lord, as long as the two families form an alliance, they will be able to easily change the situation of yin and yang, the Maori family is just a union of many wealthy families, and when the Maori family is strong, there is no dare to obey the order, if the two of us can defeat the Maori family once or twice, these wealthy families will inevitably have ideas, and it will only be a matter of time before the Maori family will divide and disintegrate." Takahiro Yamamoto said with a smile.
"Okay, that's right, these wealthy families are unreliable wall grass." Nizi Yoshihisa echoed loudly.
"My lord, please be careful." Hisatsuna Tachihara reminded.
"Oh! I'm too excited for a while.,In this case.,The Nizi family and the Kuroda family will form an alliance to fight against the Maori family.,For the sake of the mountain ****,The Niko family will gamble on the fate of the family! ”
"Hey! After a few years, I will not regret my decision today. Yamamoto Takashi bowed again and said with a smile.
A few days later, the Niko family officially sent Tachihara Hisatsuna as an envoy to Kuroda Castle in Harima Province. In fact, there was not much to discuss between the two families, and the Kuroda family quickly reached an agreement with the Niko family, completed the covenant, and confirmed that Kita-gun would be ceded to the Niko family.
Yamashiro, Yoshida County, the national city of Aki, in the meeting room, Mori Mototo, Mori Terumoto, Yoshikawa Motoharu, Kobayakawa Takakei, Yoshikawa Motohiro and others are deliberating.
"Is Taro getting better?" Mao Liyuan asked with concern.
"Father Lao is worried, I really can't help it, and my son's illness feels much better." Mori Terumoto said respectfully
"That's good, the old man feels that time is running out, in two years you will take over the burden of the Maori family and lead everyone forward, be sure to pay attention to your body!" Maori Yuan said.
"Hey! Erchen got it. Mori Terumoto said.
Yoshikawa Motoharu and Kobayakawa Takakei heard that Mori Mototo clearly said that they wanted to give up the position of family governor to Mori Terumoto, and they were still very unhappy, but they didn't show too much expression on the surface.
"I have summoned you here this time because I have something to tell you. The Kuroda family and the Niko family formed an alliance, and the Kuroda family newly acquired the lands of Tajima and Inaba. ”
"What? The Kuroda family has developed so rapidly that they already have the land of the Three Kingdoms and a half, isn't that 700,000 stones? Kobayakawa Takashi said in surprise.
"Exactly, what do you think about the alliance?" Mao Liyuan nodded, and the folding fan in his hand kept tapping his right palm regularly.
"The family, Kuroda, and Nizi have become a strong trend in the two realms of yin and yang, the family is strong, Kuroda and Nizi are weak, and the alliance between the two families is very unfavorable to the family!" Takashi Kobayakawa said with a frown.
"Then let's take down the Nizi family first." Motoharu Yoshikawa looked at everyone.
"Absolutely, do you know what the Kuroda family likes to do the most? Taking advantage of the time when other families sent troops, they attacked their rear, and this is how the Takino Akamatsu family perished. The Kuroda family's alliance with the Nizi family is to see the determination of the family to destroy the Nizi family, if the family sends troops to the Nizi family, how should the Kuroda family attack the family Beizhong, Beihou, and even An Yun's own family? Maori Huiyuan said softly, and coughed twice after speaking.
"This ...... The Niko family is now only the land of Izumo and Boqi, plus a small part of the United States, so it's a big deal to exchange the two countries for the destruction of the Niko family. Kobayakawa said.
"The Kuroda family's combat power is amazing, I'm afraid that the mountain castle of Yoshida County will be captured by the Kuroda family by then." Mori Terumoto said again.
"To be honest, the old man doesn't know how to solve this bureau." Mao Liyuan listened to the discussion of several people, and he shook his head.
"What?" "Even my father ......" "How could it be"
Mao Liyuan nodded, "No, when the time comes, let's test the alliance between these two first!" The Kuroda family, it's really terrible! ”
