And the national friendship guards came to join the Luo family with Michizo Qu Naase. Unlike Qu Naase Michizo who came alone, he brought not only his own family, but also more than a dozen other relatives and craftsmen and his family.

In the past two years, Masarashi has used Sakai town merchant Nobuyasu Amada as an intermediary to entrust Kuniyu Guard's Kokutomo Village to manufacture a large number of mustaches. It made the entire Guoyou Village a lot richer. At the same time that he entrusted the craftsmen of the village to help make the sufficiency, Masayo also secretly sent people to continue poaching the village, and since it became rich, the high-level of the village happened to compete with each other.

It's just that after the intervention of the Luo family, the Guoyou Guard, who was tired of the struggle, finally decided to leave the Guoyou Village and move to the Luo family with the clansmen who were willing to follow him, and build a new Guoyou Village in the Luo family. Regarding the departure of Kunitome, a competitor, other people who were planning to occupy all the rights and interests of Kunitome Village alone naturally raised their hands in favor. As a result, nearly a quarter of the people in the village followed the national friendship guards to Luo's house. With their arrival, the Luo family finally has their own manufacturing skills and craftsmen. In the future, Roche's sufficiency will slowly change from outsourcing to self-production. Of course, all of this will not be possible until the Kuniti Guards and others settle down and bring out more apprentices.

After the Kokuyubei arrived in the territory, Masarashi immediately placed his family near the Kishigaku Castle Armory Workshop, and appointed the Kuniyubei as the Iron Cannon Chief, responsible for making iron cannons and equipment for the Luo family.

Kunitome Village was one of the most important iron cannon production bases in the future Warring States period. Of course, it's time to play to their strengths. Although so far. The Kuniyubei and the others have not yet come into contact with the iron cannon. But just give them enough time. Naturally, it will be integrated into the iron cannon production and manufacturing system that has been formed by the Luo family, and will even provide a lot of ideas for the improvement of iron cannons.

Due to the addition of the Kuniyubei, Masara even wondered if the spread of the iron cannon of the Warring States would be changed because of the defection of the Kuniyubei to Masayo?

Historically, Tanekoshima Metoki purchased two iron cannons from the Portuguese and presented one of them to Shimazu Yoshihisa of Satsuma. Shimazu Yoshihisa dedicated it to his father, Takahisa Shimazu. In order to tie up with the imperial court and the shogunate, Shimazu Takahisa gave it to the governor Hosokawa Harumoto. Hosokawa Harumoto, the head of the administration, provided funds to the forging craftsmen Kuniyubei and Fujikuzaemon of Kuniyu Village, Sakata County, Omi. An order was given to carry out the production of iron cannons.

In addition, Tsuda Tsukimono (Tsuda Shoyuki) of Tanekojima Ryjima invited Kionerai Suginobo of Kione Root and Kiyoemon Shibata from Sakai to start the manufacture of iron cannons. What's even more special is that after being stranded in Taneko Island, Sakai merchant Tachiya Matazaburo learned the art of making iron cannons, brought them back to Sakai, and began to promote them. In addition, the ship that sailed from Tanego Island was transported to Izu, and Matsushita Goro Saburo, a retainer of Tanekoshima Tokiho, made and spread the iron cannon in the Kanto region. And so it goes. In the years following the introduction of the iron cannon, the art of the iron cannon spread to Kunitomo Village in Omi, Neraiji Temple in Kii, Settsu, Sakai, Izu and other places. In these places, the production of iron cannons began. Now that Masato has been plugged into it like this, I really don't know what will happen to the production and dissemination of iron cannons in the future.

After Ahsan, Naose, Michizo, and Kokuyoubei and others, another member of the list of famous generals appointed by Masato Shigetada also came to join the Luo family. This person is none other than Yoshiro Kawada.

Who is Yoshiro Kawada? According to historical development, he will become the military advisor of Shimazu Yoshihisa, the sixteenth head of the Satsuma Shimazu clan. Of course, he was still the son of a landlord in Osumi Province at this time, and he was only ten years old. It is said that he would soon go to the Ijiin house in Shimazu and learn from Tadaro Ijiin, and from then on he would gradually become the military advisor of Shimazu Yoshihisa.

Before Kizo Shigetada went to Mikawa, the first person he found was actually Yoshiro Kawada. Although Yoshiro Kawada's father was only a small land, he traveled extensively, and he was not only familiar with the Ijiin family, but also had a good relationship with the Togo family in Satsuma.

And the old Dongxiang Pingci of the Luo family is the Shu family from the Dongxiang family. A few years ago, Togo Heiji's family was exiled to Hizen Matsuura Prefecture after being defeated by the clan governor Setoguchi Shigewei (also known as Togo Shigewei, who was also the father of the famous Warring States sword lord Togo Shigetsushi), who was determined to unify the Togo clan and split the clan. This time, Kizo Shigetada found Yoshiro Kawada through Togo Heiji's network in Satsuma and Osumi.

At the beginning, when he learned that the governor of the Luo family wanted to accept Kawada Yoshiro as a small surname, Kawada Yoshiro was still a little hesitant, although he superficially agreed to Kizo Shigetada's request, but he did not let Kawada Yoshiro go on the road. Although the Luo family had just defeated the Otomo family in Hizen and Chikugo at that time, Kawada Yoshiro was still worried that the Luo family would be short-lived and would soon be destroyed by the Otomo family. It's just that since the Luo family repelled the Otomo family and completely gained a foothold, and his reputation gradually became prominent, he changed his mind, so he immediately sent Kawada Yoshiro to the Luo family.

Yoshiro Kawada's father had a wishful thinking. Judging from the current situation in Kyushu, the Luo family is the overlord of the three heroes of Kyushu along with the Ouchi family and the Otomo family, and the status is obviously much better than that of the Shimazu family. The fundamental reason why he sent Yoshiro Kawada to the Ijiin family to learn the art of war with the Ijiin Tadaro was just to get in touch with the Shimazu family, the head of the Ijiin family.

Now that there is a Luo family that is better than the Shimazu family, he is certainly willing. As for the Shimazu family, he did not completely block the back road, and he planned to wait for his second son to be a little older, and then send him to the Ijiin family to learn the art of war from Ijiin Tadaro. In this way, it is equivalent to two masters of one family, so that the family can be guaranteed to continue to survive in this troubled era.

Adopting a child like Yoshiro Kawada as a small surname around him can make potential competitors lose their future strength, and on the other hand, they can be trained to accept Masayo's new ideas through his words and deeds, so that they can become important generals in the future of the territory. Coupled with the relationship with Zhengliang, who is also a teacher and a master, and even a black hat family, they will definitely be loyal supporters of the Luo family in the future.

In addition to Kawada Yoshiro and the other three, during this period of time, Masara also recruited several good ronin samurai, namely:

Nobukiyo Fukuda, 26 years old. Originally, he was the son of a small land in Tokai Province, Tokaido. At the time of the Imagawa Yakura Rebellion, his family belonged to the Genhiro Keitan faction of the Fukushima clan. After the defeat to the Umegaku Seiyoyoshi (later Imagawa Yoshimoto) faction, which led to the destruction of the family, he escaped and began to wander around, eventually joining the Luo family. I like to use spears.,Martial arts are pretty good.。

Takashi Mitsuri. Originally a Koga ninja, he later left Koga to practice everywhere, during which he met the snitch flying section, and the two became friends after a fight. He was directly recommended to the Roche family by Fei Duan. The weapon he wields is Yachifang (the chain scythe has eight sharp protrusions on the scythe), and he looks a bit like Masara, and after applying makeup, he can act as a shadow warrior for Masara.

Taketori snake orchid pills. Formerly a ninja from Iga Province. The clan was wiped out by the surrounding ninja clans in the battle, and fled to Kyushu, where he first learned his art as a domain lord in the Luo clan dojo, and was later promoted to a close attendant of Masari because of his outstanding performance. The weapon used is a long-chain knife (a chain with an awl attached to it).

Waves and Moons. People in the capital, the pursuit of the highest point of martial arts and wandering around, once followed the tourist practice to hone the swordsmanship of Tsukahara Bu to learn the arts, swordsmanship is good. He was hired by Zhengliang as a teacher of the Luo Dojo.

Chen Tianjie. A native of Ningbo Mansion in the Ming Kingdom. He once drifted at sea with the Nanban ship for a period of time, and he knew the languages of Western countries. He was hired by Masato as a public minister who was specifically responsible for dealing with the Nanban.

Just when Masara was happy that many talents had begun to gather at the Luo family, behind a small village in Jiafei, a young man about sixteen years old was a little reluctant to pack up his things in his thatched hut.

The boy's name is Gensuke Kasuga. He was originally the son of Kasuga Osumi, a wealthy farmer of the local Yatsushiro gun Ishiwa, but not long ago, his father died. As a result, his brother-in-law bullied him at a young age and even came to steal his father's inheritance. What made him even more unwilling was that the brother-in-law who was bought by his brother-in-law actually helped him, and in the end he lost his father's inheritance.

Now the field, and even the thatched hut where he now stood, belonged to him. Under the pressure of his brother-in-law, he had to get out of here. If it weren't for his sister's intercession, he wouldn't even have had a chance to go home and pack his things.

"One day I will come back here and get back all my possessions, and that land, and I will not only rob him of all his land, but also of his beautiful daughter." Kasuga thought unwillingly in his heart.

It's just that the world is big, and after leaving this native place, where should he go to settle down? Thinking of this, Haruhi Gensuke couldn't help but be confused again.

"Is there anyone in there?" Just then, someone shouted outside the thatched hut.

"Could it be that my brother-in-law broke his promise to my sister and didn't even give me the last day to stay in this thatched house?" Hearing the shouting outside the house, Haruhi Gensuke couldn't help but think angrily, "Hmph, just go, I'll definitely come back." Thinking of this, Kasuga Gensuke picked up the burden and directly pushed open the wooden door and walked out.

"Excuse me, is your Excellency Gensuke-sama Kasuga?" Just as Gensuke Kasuga walked out of the thatched house, he saw a young man in his twenties standing in front of the thatched house with two of his men. (To be continued......)
