Chapter 201: Counting Merit (Part II)
Zhengheng sat on it lonely, he gave people a condescending feeling, not only that, but the shining one-eye under his forehead had the power to pierce people's hearts, and he listened to Kawasaki Yorihiro's introduction, and his mind fell into contemplation.
Most of the Kibi Shikoku has fallen into the hands of the Date family, and the Hao people who have not yet surrendered in Bigo have also submitted their surrenders, and there will be no large-scale use of troops for a long time in the future, at most it will only be a small-scale expansion. According to the rough land inspection, the stone height of Kibi Shikoku is no more than 500,000 stones, and even if the wasteland is reclaimed and the fields are planted with grain, it will not be doubled, and it will be levied strictly according to the taxes of the six gongs and four farmers, and the actual storage is only 300,000 stones. If you only know how to cultivate the land, you can only feed more than 10,000 regular troops, and the financial pressure is extremely huge.
Therefore, there are only two ways to expand, one is to search for mines, there are many copper mines and limestone mines in Jibei Shishi, accompanied by a small amount of gold and silver mines, which is not conducive to large-scale public mining, the most important silver mountain in China, Iwami Silver Mountain is located in Iwami Country, there is no need to think about it in a short time, and there is no need to think about it in the next two or three years. He didn't know that an opportunity to take control of Ikuno Silver Mountain was about to be placed in front of him, and Takeda Takanobu's younger brother Takeda Matazaburo had already come to ask for help. Even if he knew, he simply wouldn't have enough strength to fight a battle to destroy the country in a short period of time.
The only place where Masahiro was able to produce gold and silver was Fukiya Copper Mountain, which was not taken seriously enough by the interruption of maritime trade, but it gradually took the form of a mining town. The only way to expand production was to build a mine town and increase manpower and material resources in order to quickly relieve the financial pressure on the Date family.
In the same way, Zhengheng knew in his heart that once the army returned to prepare for China, the narrow area of the shabby Hecheng could no longer meet the needs of the main city. It was an urgent matter to build a big city in the Okayama area, a big city dominated by commerce.
With commercial towns, mining towns, and roads connecting Shikoku, the Date family will have an equally heavy task in the coming years. Thinking of this, Zheng Heng couldn't help but glance at Jin Guang Zonggao, the current city lord of Shishan City, who was sitting not far away, and Yuan Chang, who was sitting beside him, and the two of them would be far away from their territory. So as to make room for Okayama Castle in the future.
However, the two of them will not suffer too much, you must know that the rules of the Wa State are big, and it seems that they will cut their heads at every turn or something, but in fact, the relationship between the master and the slave is not as rigorous as imagined, which leads to the changes in these famous families of the Wa State at every turn, and almost every Xiao Xiong who stirs up the storm in the troubled times of the Warring States of the Wa State will have various incidents.
Jin Guang Zongtaka and Sosho Mototsune are not old ministers of Date Masaki. The two were coerced by Date Masahiro after he went out to prepare for the former country, betrayed the Matsuda clan, and were included in the name of the Date family. Although he did not gain combat merits in the battle with Niko Haruha, as the earliest member of Bizen Zhong, it itself has the effect of buying bones with a thousand gold, which naturally became the basis for sealing.
While Zheng Heng was still pondering, there was a sudden silence in the conference room. But it is said that Kawasaki Yorihiro has already listed the hundreds of households that came one by one, which makes Kawasaki Yorihiro seem to have done useless work to sign up, but in fact, it is enough to deter those who are unwilling to surrender to Xiaoxiao, and when they want to do something against the Date family, they must always think about whether the neighboring forces are sent by the Date family to monitor them, so that there will be a lot less noise, of course, what is the effect. The benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise.
Zheng Heng glanced at everyone, and greeted the attendant lightly: "I'm a little hungry, let's go to tea and rice!" "The country of Wa is poor and evil, and it claims to be a Buddha country, so it is not allowed to openly kill and eat raw meat, and in private I have even eaten wild boar meat before the political balance is vulgar, not to mention the vulgar and unbearable low-level samurai. However, if he openly preaches the killing and eating of raw meat, I am afraid that he will give Xiaoxiao a righteous name and crusade against the name of the Date family.
Chazuke is actually said to be chazuke, because there are too many people. Tea leaves, to be exact, are not enough tea bags, and more water is added, but it still makes most people eat satisfied, as if they are eating a big meal. After all, tea was a luxury enjoyed by nobles and high-ranking samurai, and low-ranking samurai and ordinary people could not drink lightly. The Bizen, Bichu, and Bigo who were present were from the coast of the Seto Inland Sea, and they could see it without having eaten it, but Misaku could only rely on imagination, and the barren Misaku country couldn't even eat enough rice, and he had to be hungry for three or four days a month, so where would he have the energy to satisfy his appetite.
Legend has it that Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, who finally seized the hegemony of the world, were all loyal fans of chazuke, and in addition to their busy military affairs, they often relied on a bowl of chazuke and two pieces of dried radish pickles to solve their stomach problems.
It is conceivable that even the characters who claim to be the people of the world are delicious with chazuke, what kind of attitude the people below will have.
Chazuke can be, but wine can't, the banquet of the Japanese country is not happy without wine, but this evaluation meeting will determine the fate of many people, fortunate and unfortunate, if you drink wine and play drunk, it is a big joke.
After the meal, Zhengheng's face was a little stern, put down his rice bowl, and said: "Prepare for the first battle, our soldiers dare to fight, take the lead bravely, and capture Nizi Haruhisa and others in one fell swoop. ”
Yan Yuan Jing could hear Zhengheng talk about him, so he immediately got up and knocked: "The ancestor deliberately wrote a suicide note before he died, and the suicide note wrote: The old evil consequences will be repaid today, and tomorrow's battle will be incomplete, and dying in battle may not be a mistake, maybe there is my last place to live, but where is it?" ”
As he spoke, Yan Yuan Jingneng took out a letter from his sleeve and said loudly: "This form is the letter written by the ancestor before his death, and the country is now owned by Date Dan Zhengzhong, and the political balance has this letter and must send troops to cross here." As he spoke, he began to cry and cry, as if he was so sad.
The words that Nobuhara Keineng said, everyone depends on whether the officials are a little familiar, yes, this is the suicide note of Urakami Sokei specially fabricated by Masahiro in order to seize Bizen Province, and it is the suicide note of Saito Michizo who transferred Mino Province to Oda Nobunaga, Oda Nobunaga also has the identity of a son-in-law, in order to show the name of righteousness, there is a saying that he raised his young son Matsunojo, it will take more than ten years for Matsunojo to grow up, if he can't fully control Bizen Country for such a long time, even if he is taken back, it is a matter of self-inflicted.
What's more, who can guarantee that the three- or four-year-old Song Zhicheng can grow up safely and will not die early.
Now, under the general trend, no one has the courage to expose the trick between Masahiro and Nobuhara Keineng, and the "Bizen Country Concession Form" has naturally become Date Masahiro's righteous name for encroaching on Bizen Country, and it completes the proof, as for Misaku is taken from Nizi Harumu, not to mention that Nizi Haruhisa has already signed a transfer letter to get his life, and he doesn't have to take it out on the spot and slap Nizi Haruhisa again.
After Yanyuan Jingneng finished speaking, Zhengheng was not modest, and directly led the concession of Bizen Province, he glanced around at everyone, and read aloud: "Among the territories left by Urakami Yuanjiang, 15,000 stones from nearby Waki County were taken out for Songzhicheng's daily expenses, and Yanyuan Jingneng was in charge on his behalf. ”
As soon as the state of affairs comes out, Yanyuan Jing can completely surrender to Date Masaki, there is no way out, the widow of the former Urakami Zongjing will obviously not have a good face for him, and Urakami Matsunojo is difficult to be close to this custodian, then, for a long time, he can and must hug Date Masaki's thigh tightly.
Of course, Yanyuan Jingneng knows about his own family, he can be regarded as a character who has survived from death once, the scene of Urakami Zongjing's suicide is vivid, and he knows that there is no way back, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "The subordinates must work diligently for His Highness." "Yunyun.
Urakami Matsuno's affair, there will be no more Urakami Sokage, most of the territory he left behind naturally fell into the hands of the Date family, of course, it is impossible to fall into his pocket, and it is also sealed out, Masahiro continued: "Akashi Hida Shoujing pro-town guard Kitasone Castle has been sealed with 2,000 stones, increased to 5,000 stones, and has a feeling. "Akashi Jingqin and Yanyuan Jingneng are both ministers of Urakami Zongjing, Yanyuan Jingneng is notorious, and Akashi Jingqin is not much better, he escaped alone before the fall of Tenjin Mountain Castle that day before he survived, and Zhengheng said that he guarded Kitasone Castle Yunyun to cover up one or two.
Akashi Keijin immediately prostrated on the ground and thanked him, Akashi Keijin was not famous, but his son who was keen on the spread of Christianity was very famous, that is, Akashi Junto, one of the seven star generals of Osaka, followed Ukita Hideya in the Battle of Sekigahara as a deputy general, and became a blockbuster.
After that, the two remaining retainers under Urakami Sokei were included in the Date family system, and the rest of the retainers who died in battle were obviously impossible to receive any rewards, and the Ukita Naojia who beheaded the public did not even mention it, and most of those involved in him were severely punished by confiscation.
For example, the matter of Urakami Masamune and Iga Kutaka had been decided before the meeting, and Urakami Masamune recaptured Muroyama Castle, and even rewarded him with 35,000 koku in the two counties of Nishiharima Province except for Ako County and Sayo County, of course, many of these territories were not occupied, and if you wanted to obtain them, you had to fight for them; Iga Kutaka seized Matsuda Motoki's Jinchuan Castle, got the official appointment of Masahiro, and moved from the poor countryside to Jinchuan City, Iga Kutaka knew that what he was doing was taboo, so he launched his sister-in-law Masaburo and sent it to Masahiro, in the name of following Masahiro to learn the art of war, in fact, it means hostage.
