Chapter 113 Double Happiness Comes to the Door
Accepting such a big gift, Gao Hu had no reason to refuse, so he had no choice but to agree to Moyu's request and invite him to return to Sacheon City with the ship and meet Xiubao in person.
This day can be described as a double happiness for Hidebo, not only captured sixty warships, captured the marshal of the Korean soldiers and horses Wonjun, but also got the good news from Koriyama Castle, saying that it was diagnosed by the doctor, Juji was three months pregnant, which shows that the luck before Hideho's expedition was still very effective.
Hearing this news, the city of Sacheon up to Xiubao, down to the ashigaru are all elated, full of joy, plus there are three days of the New Year, but also make everyone feel very good, as soon as the news is released, the old city of Sacheon Sangsan Chongqing, Kunyang Suzuki Chongchao rushed to the new city, offering the first blessing, and Guseongong's island Kiyoheung, Aoki Ichiju of Xianshan Island, Jinju Fukushima Goji and Nanhai Island Sangsan Ichishige could not rush back due to military affairs, so they sent a letter to congratulate. It can be seen that this child pinned the hopes of the entire Yamato Toyotomi family and made everyone full of confidence in the future of the family.
In the evening of the same day, Gao Hu and his team arrived at Xianshan Island Water Village, but because most of the facilities were destroyed, it could not accommodate so many warships, so the fleet continued westward and docked at Changshan Water Village in the southwest of Sacheon to rest.
Knowing that Gao Hu had landed in Changshan, Hideho specially ordered Nasu Ziji to lead the Ma Xia people to meet him. As the fleet approached, the scenery on the shore was in full view: the wide and open Sacheon Port, the dotted Da'an Mansions, the five-seven paulownia fluttering in the wind, and the majestic horses, all of which made Moyu breathtaking, and he had a little appreciation and awe of Hideho before they met.
"I always thought that Busan was the largest port in North Korea, but when I saw Sacheon today, I knew that a mountain was higher than a mountain." Mo You held the railing with both hands and sighed in the sea breeze.
"The Ministry of Civil Affairs has won the award," Gao Hu shook his head and said with a smile: "Busan is the foundation of the Korean army, and Sacheon is just a small port, how dare it be compared with the main city of His Highness Jinwu." ”
"I can't say that, although Busan is the place where the grain and grass of the three armies are distributed, Sacheon is the key to the two strongholds of Suncheon and Masan, and in terms of severity, the two are really comparable." In the end, he told the truth, but he seemed to be deliberately flattering, which made Gao Hu feel relieved.
"Since you said so, Gao Hu had no choice but to tell the truth, during the Wenroku period, Busan, as the base of the Kyushu Four Kingdoms Naval Army, should have been built magnificently, and Sacheon at that time was just a stronghold of the Shimazu family, and there were not too many warships moored, so there was no need to build a large number of buildings."
"But now it's different, Shichu has taken over Sacheon, and our Yamato Toyotomi family has its own naval army, as you can see, in terms of size and strength, our naval army is not inferior to the Busa water army, so it is absolutely necessary for us to expand the port and repair the city. Of course, it was not Zai Xia who first realized this, but His Royal Highness, who ordered us to start building as early as the beginning of the Northern Expedition of the Third Route Army. Not only the port of Sacheon, but also the surrounding defensive positions have been renovated, and the twists and turns are beyond anyone's imagination. ”
"A project of this magnitude must cost a lot of money, right?" Suyu asked tentatively.
"Of course, otherwise how could I use 'twists and turns' to describe this project, but fortunately, all this has passed, and the investment at that time has now begun to pay off, and it should be able to stop the mouths of those old retainers." Gao Hu didn't want Mo Yu to know too much, and as soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly ended the conversation and prepared to get off the boat.
"It's really time for Sado Mamoru to come back, I just received the news that Ju Yuqian has been pregnant with the young master, and it has been three months, and the lord is busy arranging the hall outside, and he really can't take a break, so let the humble come to greet you." As soon as they met, Ziji couldn't wait to tell Gao Hu the good news.
"Ziji, you are really, I didn't see you so excited when Yoichi (Ziji's sister-in-law) was born, and the child has not yet been born, how do you know that it must be the young master?" Knowing that Ju Ji was pregnant, as the actual chief family elder, Gao Hu was very excited, but he was not only happy but also did not forget to ridicule the captain of the horse in front of him, he was happy with his son-in-law before Xiubao.
Worried that this was disrespectful to the main family, Ziji almost killed Yoyichi, but fortunately, his wife met Hideho with the child in her arms, and Ziyoshi was given a general training, which saved the only remaining bloodline of the Nasu family.
Zikichi's elder brother, Nasu Zijing, who has 5,000 stone Chiyuki in Shimono Country, was injured by a tiger when he went out hunting, and could not have offspring, so he hoped to adopt Ziyoshi's sister-in-law as an adopted son and inherit the Nasu family.
Ziji is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he was kicked out of the house at the beginning, and now he wants to welcome his son-in-law back to the field, how can there be such a ruthless father and brother in the world? Even if he inherits the position of the head of the clan, Ziji is not rare, he is now a daimyo of 12,000 stone in the rock room, how can he hand over his son-in-law for the 5,000 stone in Shimono? Besides, the Nasu family is now a strong and weak branch, and the so-called clan is just a false name, and as soon as you die, my Kii Nasu family will inherit the clan naturally, so why hand over the son-in-law to others.
But Hideho didn't think so, as a famous family in Shimono, with a deep background, how could he easily cut off his family name, and there were five thousand stone fiefdoms, with this nail planted on the top of Ieyasu's head, and then united with Utsunomiya and the Gamo family, it would be much easier to obtain information about Kanto. Therefore, Hideho personally stepped forward to regulate the relationship between the two brothers. Shikyoshi is not ignorant of current affairs, and under the pressure of Hidebo, he has to adopt a compromise method and adopt Shikichi as an adopted son, and after a hundred years, Shikichi will inherit the Nasu clan to achieve the unification of the Nasu family.
After such twists and turns, Ziji's love for this sister-in-law is increasing day by day, and his care is even more meticulous, knowing that Gao Hu is ridiculing himself, he is not angry but laughs, nodded and said: "With a naughty one, the humble position has long been unwanted, how can he compare with the young master, please believe in the humble position, the one who is pregnant in front of the emperor must be the young master, it must be!" ”
"Okay, don't be poor, hurry up and take me to meet the lord, this lord next to me can't be lazy." Gao Hu patted Ziji's head and said with a smile.
"Ha, I'll take you to the palace." After speaking, Ziji ordered the horses to take out two batches of war horses and hand them over to Gao Hu and Moyou respectively, while he and the generals followed closely and marched along the central avenue towards the inner city of Sichuan.
The day before, Maori Xiuyuan led an army of 35,000 men into Cheongju City, and the guards Chen Yuzhong and Yang Yuan led a repeat of the mistakes of Jeonju and fled to Gongju with 3,000 Ming troops.
