Chapter 52: The Conquest of Kyushu (5)

Zhengheng was smiling, especially when he saw Ouchi Yoshicho's strong face, but his heart was full of anger and grievance, he was even happier. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Masahiro, as the minister of the Taizheng and the lord of the world of more than 20 countries, personally greeted Ouchi Yoshicho at the gate of the camp, which was enough to give Ouchi Yoshicho face. You must know that the current Ouchi Yoshicho is a lost dog, and he has lost a big battle, and he can only survive by relying on Zhengheng to give him his life. Otherwise, if it weren't for the support of the Date Army, he would have committed suicide by seppuku in fear under the attack of Otomo Yoshijin.

The reason why Masahiro took time out of his busy schedule to personally come out to greet Ouchi Yoshicho is naturally that Ouchi Yoshicho still has some use now, Ouchi Yoshicho used the power of a country to resist the overlord of Kitakyushu Otomo Yoshizhen, and the Ouchi clan did not completely perish in his hands, which is enough to show that Ouchi Yoshicho still has some ability. Of course, if that's all there is, there is no need for Masahiro to come out to greet Ouchi Yoshicho in person and pick up his face that he tore apart and threw on the ground again. You must know that Zhengheng fought in the south and the north, and it is not that he has never seen a more prominent and noble family than the Ouchi clan, who wants to kill or kill, destroy or destroy, and does not leave them any face.

The Ouchi clan is hereditary Zhou Fang Quansuke, and now Zhou Fang Guo is the Heavenly Domain of the Date family, that is to say, it is the direct territory of Zhengheng. It stands to reason that if the Ouchi clan still exists, once the Date family is weakened, Zhou Fangguo may be unstable. According to the usual practice, there is no need for Masahiro to leave Ouchi Yoshicho and Ouchi clan, don't think that in Masahiro's view, since Ouchi Yoshitaka was defeated twice and Tao Qingxian's perverse actions have already lost hundreds of years of prestige.

In the political map of the political territory, Osaka Castle will be the future political center of the Date family, and Harima Castle, Okayama Castle, Fukuoka Castle, and Hiroshima Castle will be important military stations to rule the Western Kingdom, of which Okayama Castle will be the Western Kyoto, and these places are all direct territories of the Date family.

As a northern Kyushu force that has been subordinate to the Date family for a long time, the Ouchi clan has been subordinate to the Date family for a long time, no matter whether it was willing or unwilling at the beginning, in the eyes of others, the Ouchi clan has already joined the Date family, and the Date family naturally cannot eliminate the Ouchi clan, at least not at present, and also make a look of harmony between the monarch and the minister. You must know that Zhengheng went to Kyushu to announce to the outside world that he came to the rescue at the request of Yoshicho Ouchi, and this righteous name has to be firmly grasped, even if no one believes it, it still has to be passable in terms of face.

This is a political trick of Masaki, and he wants to borrow money for Ouchi Yoshinaga to announce to the world that he has come to Kyushu to pacify the enemy of the Otomo clan, and the rest of the forces will not be attacked by him.

Zhengheng is determined to be in the world, and for others, he only needs to coerce and use it. You must know that although the territory controlled by the current Otomo clan is not comparable to the peak period, but in Kitakyushu except for Bunzen and Chikuzen, the rest of the region has more or less Otomo family's territory, as long as the territory of the Otomo family is captured, it is enough for Masaki to obtain the most elite territory in Kyushu.

Zheng Heng was smiling, and the lines outlined in the corners of his mouth were full of sarcasm. Ouchi Yoshicho pretended to be high, and four or five years ago, he was reluctantly lowered his arrogant head and surrendered to him by Ryosen Takatsu, and then defeated Otomo Yoshicho twice, Ouchi Yoshinaga no longer paid attention to the Date family, and the cheap New Year's gifts to congratulate the Date family every year became less and less, and later no one came. It's good now, Ouchi Yoshicho's prestige was lost, his prestige was swept away, and he fled in embarrassment, if it weren't for the rescue of Noyama Yoshitomo, I am afraid that he would have died in Huangquan. Ouchi Yoshicho, who has always regarded himself very highly, lost face along the way, and when he came to him, he had to force a smile and laugh, so he knew why he had to do it today.

Ouchi Yoshicho finally held back, why should the lost dog be brave. It's really fate, Ouchi Yoshicho knows that the Date family has already decided to conquer Kyushu, he doesn't want to admit it, he thinks that if the army is still there, maybe something has changed, but looking back, things are wrong, life changes are great, so he seems to be in a dream, and now the dream has been shattered, Ouchi Yoshicho has to face the cruel reality.

The cruel reality made Ouchi Yoshinaga have to lower his arrogant head, abandon his face, and beg for people with low blood in a reluctant voice, which is really difficult to adapt, so his smile is very reluctant.

But the cruel reality told him that without the approval of the "one-eyed dragon" in front of him, not only would it be a delusion to revive the Ouchi clan, but even his survival would be a big joke.

Zhengheng glanced at Ouchi Yoshicho's embarrassed appearance and said with a smile: "Oh, Yoshicho, you are here." ”

Ouchi Yoshicho made a happy face, and without taking off his helmet, he walked to Zhengheng's side, nodded and congratulated: "The Prime Minister has made his wishes come true, and has made great achievements and achieved great achievements in the world. ”

Before Yoshicho Ouchi finished speaking, Masahiro interrupted his words: "Shut up, Yoshicho, all your wishes come true, great achievements, the cause of the people of the world is to start from Mutsu in the east and reach Kyushu in the west before it can be discussed." This expedition to Kyushu is to complete the great cause of the people of the world, you have twice defeated the enemy of the DPRK Dayouyi Town, you are full of ambition, why are you so embarrassed now? ”

was exposed by Zhengheng, Ouchi Yoshinaga's face changed suddenly, looking left and right, and he couldn't get rid of Zhengheng's hot gaze, so he had to force a laugh, and said in a dry voice: "The minister is aggressive, so that the minister is speechless?" The foreign minister is willing to hand over the family treasure of the great family to ask the minister for forgiveness. ”

Zhengheng looked directly at Yoshicho Ouchi and said, "Give me a reason to believe in you, five years ago, you sincerely prayed to me for help, vowed to surrender to me, and signed an oath, how have you treated me in the past five years." Can I still trust you now? Since you have the face to come to me and ask me to forgive you for your crimes, then naturally you have your motives and reasons. Now tell me your motives and reasons. ”

Ouchi Yoshicho was caught off guard, he didn't expect Zhengheng to say bluntly that he didn't believe his words. This sudden move shattered Ouchi Yoshinaga's original plan and forced him to rethink his countermeasures.

Zheng Heng's eyes were fierce, and he shouted coldly: "If you want to win my trust, you must show your sincerity. ”

When asked by Zhengheng, Yoshicho Ouchi was flustered and at a loss, although he was ready to be sarcastically ridiculed by Zhengheng, he didn't expect that Zhengheng's accountability would be so serious, leaving him speechless.

Ouchi Yoshicho said without hesitation: "Minister Taizheng? I ......"

Zheng Heng shouted angrily: "What am I? For a person like you, I will never be willing to be my subordinate. Do you still want to treat me as before, belong to me for the time being, and wait and move? ”
