Chapter Ninety-Four: The Afterglow of Kyushu (7)

The Uniqueness of the Matsuura Party (Part I)

Tian Anjing, the pen head of the pen who is second only to Matsuura Takanobu, bowed down and said: "Lord, everyone, according to the expedited report of the exploration horse, the general of the Western Route Army of the Great Friendly Army, the general of the Western Route Army, the whole army was wiped out, and the Great Friendly Army lost four or five thousand people, the corpses were like mountains, and the river was cut off. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoNow one part of the Date Army continues to pursue into Higo, and the other part enters Hizen Country, and the Arima clan is defeated one after another, and it will be broken in a few days. Now that only the Matsuura Party in Kitakyushu has not yet surrendered, it will come to attack soon, and the Date Army's troops are very sharp and difficult to resist. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the conference room immediately became commotion, and the sudden change in the situation made them dizzy.

Matsuura Takanobu couldn't help but feel very irritated when he saw the panic of these cronies, for him, the top priority was how to save himself, how to save himself and his entire family from this storm. He barely maintained his composure and asked, "Everyone, Anjing has made the situation very clear, what do you think?" ”

Matsuura Takanobu relied on the wealth of the cornucopia of Hirado Port to become a tyrant on the seas, with four or five thousand troops and dozens of sea ships, and if he could maintain a semi-independent state of submission to the Date family without any losses, he would naturally not disagree. However, according to Matsuura Takanobu's investigation, Date Masahiro, the governor of the Date family, attaches great importance to the construction of the naval army, and is not only invincible on land, but also extraordinary in the sea. However, Matsuura Takanobu knew that in order for the Matsuura Party to have exclusive control over the Port of Hirado, it would have to maintain a naval force that was sufficient to match the Date family in the situation, which meant that confrontation and cooperation would be protracted.

However, what it means to contend with the Date family and the powerful Date army, Matsuura Takanobu will not be unaware, there are many precedents, and those forces that originally wanted to maintain a confrontation attitude with the Date family have now been destroyed.

Will the Matsuura Party be the only one? Takanobu Matsuura was deeply skeptical.

However, Matsuura Takannobu also knew that once the Matsuura Party lost possession of Hirado Port, it would be completely reduced to a third-rate force, and it would have to live on the snort of others, and it was not known when the Matsuura Party would lose everything because of a trivial matter.

Matsuura Takanobu didn't dare to think further, he couldn't think through it, and it was useless to think about it again, for for him, the top priority was how to ensure the Matsuura Party's possession in Hirado Port, because greed would blind people's minds and make people dull and stupid.

Matsuura Takashin turned around a hundred times, everyone in the conference room looked at each other, and no one wanted to be the first to speak, and everyone knew the truth of shooting the first bird. The lord of Toriya Castle, Shisa Junyuan, was deeply trusted by Matsuura Takanobu, not only married Matsuura Takanobu's daughter, but also got the support of Matsuura Takanobu so that Shisa Junyuan completely controlled the Shisa clan, he twisted for a long time, and saw that no one came out, so he had to cough dryly and said: "Lord, now the Date army is huge, two or three hundred thousand troops are gathered in Kyushu, if you choose to resist, if you want to use the mantis arm as a car to kill yourself, but the base of the Date family is not in Kyushu after all, and the Date army we will face is only 350,000 people, and the pressure is naturally not the same." , please think twice. ”

Shisa Junyuan's words immediately attracted everyone's approval.

The gathering of two or three hundred thousand Date troops in Kyushu really gave everyone a strong shock, and when they suddenly heard the news of the Date Army's expedition to Kyushu, everyone trembled. However, as Shisa Jungen said, the Date family's base is not in Kyushu, and if they want to suppress the vast territory, it is impossible for them to go out for a long time, and they will eventually return to their hometown. At that time, the Matsuura Party will not have to face more than 350,000 Date troops left in Kyushu, plus the vassal forces in various places, they will no longer feel as powerless as they are now, and they will think about it in the long run.

Cage Ta Anjing stepped forward and retorted, "What Toriya Hall said is true, but if Date Jun asks to enter Hirado Port, I don't know what you should do?" You must know that this Hirado Port gains a lot every year, and once we lose the Hirado Port, we will be reduced to a third-rate force, and we will no longer have the strength to resist the central government, and I am afraid that even our ancestral property will have to be lost at that time. ”

Katoreda Ansuke is not unable to see through the results of the confrontation with the Date family, but his original base Igetsu Island and Tojima Island are important anchorages of Kishitan in Kyushu, and a large number of churches have been built, and nine times out of ten the islanders have converted to Cheshitanism and become devout believers. The first thing to consider is the interests of the Kateda clan, and the interests of the Kateda clan are the will of the people of the island and the island of Shengyue, and those who follow the will of the people will prosper, and those who go against the will of the people will die. As mentioned above, there was a deep misunderstanding between the Date family and Kishitan, and Kyodate Yasukei naturally did not dare to go against the will of the Kishitan followers to express his obedience, so he had to come forward to express his opposition, and the high-sounding reason was that the cornucopia of the Matsuura Party was unique to Hirado Port.

As soon as the words of the cage Tian Anjing fell, everyone who was originally in line with Shisa Junyuan was silent, Hirado Port is a cornucopia, and everyone here relies on this cornucopia to scoop up food, and if someone wants to take away the cornucopia, it will naturally attract everyone's indignation.

Shisa Junyuan sneered and looked at the cage Tian Anjing, the cage Tian Anjing is the pen head of Matsuura Takanobu, and the Matsuura family has always been above everyone under one person, Shisa Junyuan has always appeared as a challenger, and has been secretly supported by Matsuura Takanobu to compete with Cage Tian Anjing.

Seeing that Shisa Junyuan seemed to have a different opinion, Matsuura Takanobu asked, "Junyuan, what do you have to say?" ”

"My lord, my colleagues, in my eyes, the port of Hirado is naturally a good place in the world, and it is an important port for trade with the Nanbanians, but in the eyes of the Date family, the port of Hirado is just a slightly more prominent port among many ports. What we need to consider now is not to ensure the interests of the Matsuura Party in Hirado Port, but to enable the Matsuura Party to represent in front of the Date family in a way that is different from other family forces, and thus to obtain greater benefits. ”

Matsuura Takanobu looked serious and thoughtful, and seemed to agree with Shisa Junyuan's words. It is true that as Comrade Sajun Moto believes, he only sees one port of Hirado in his eyes, but once the Date family occupies Kyushu and Honshu Island, there is indeed more than one choice for Hirado Port, as long as the Date family has strong support, any port will lead Hirado Port in a short period of time, and Hirado Port will only be reduced to a second-rate port, and it will no longer stand out.

Cage Tian Anjing just wanted to refute, but Matsuura Takashi stopped the other party with a look in his eyes and asked, "Chunyuan, go on." ”
