After Yoshikawa Hiroya finished speaking, he was also stunned by this reward? 14,000 stone ???

"Lord!" Yoshikawa Hiroya immediately put down the roster, turned his head to look at Tsugawa Soji, and said with a sincere and fearful face: "Lord, how can he be rewarded like this!" This time to send troops, many retainers have won more meritorious services than below, and it is really deserved to be rewarded so generously! ”

The Yoshikawa Hiroshi family really felt that the reward of 14,000 stones was a bit much, although this was a reseal, and the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family still had a few thousand stones of knowledge and action before, but even so, such a reward was enough to flatter the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family.

Looking at the appearance of the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family, Tsugawa Soji smiled, then stood up and walked to the side of the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family and said slowly, "The Hiroshi family, you are the talent of the family, and the family knows!" This time, I transferred you to Iwate County, hoping that you would be able to capture the Closed County for your family. We also monitor the movement of the house in the southern part of Karanbe-gun in the north. ”

"Although the southern family is now in civil strife, Nobunaka Kunohe is definitely not the opponent of Southern Harusa, so you will be responsible for guarding the territory for your own family and monitoring the burden of the southern family!" Regarding the battle between Southern Harusama and Kunohe Shinnaka, Tsugawa Soji still favored Southern Harusa. After all, the ability and military strategy of Southern Harimasu are not comparable to Nobunaka Kunohe.

"Guang family, don't let your family down!" Soji Tsugawa looked at Yoshikawa Hiroya with encouragement and a smile on his face.

Feeling the high hopes placed on him by Tsugawa Soji, the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family suddenly had a feeling that the person who was a confidant was dying, "Thank you, lord!" In the decision, he should live up to the high expectations of the lord and attack the closed county for his family! ”

"Good!" Soji Tsugawa nodded in satisfaction, "Go ahead and announce the reward." ”

"Hah!"

Soji Tsugawa slowly returned to the main seat and sat down, and then Yoshikawa Hiroke picked up the roster again, and then announced.

And many of the retainers in the hall looked at the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family with a little envy and longing in their eyes. I envy the rewards that the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family has received, and I also look forward to the future like the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family, who will be rewarded by Tsugawa Soji and become an important retainer in the family.

A quarter of an hour later, Yoshikawa Hiroke finally finished reading the contents of the reward list. In general, all the retainers who participated in the dispatch of troops this time received a lot of rewards. Many people, such as Yoshikawa Hiroke and Takahashi Koke, have obtained thousands of stone of knowledge. Fewer people, such as Shuichiro Yagyu and Hirohiro Tsumiki, have also received hundreds of rewards, and they are all happy.

Seeing that the Yoshikawa Hiroshi family had already announced the end of the reward, Tsukawa Soji hurriedly said, "In the battle of Takekawa, the Yashima family and the Takizawa family resisted desperately, held the flank, and ensured the safety of the front line, and the reward they deserved." ”

"In view of the fact that the Akebo family and the Akao Tsu family escaped from the battle this time, and the territory of the Akao Tsu family was confiscated, and the Asaka family had promised to preserve their family name due to the seppuku of the Asaka family, so they let the Ashibo family go for the time being." Soji Tsugawa said slowly, "How many stone heights are there in the Akao Tsu family?" After saying that, Soji Tsugawa set his sights on Mitsuhisa Lost Island and Takizawa Masako.

Hearing Tsugawa Soji's question, Takizawa Masato hurriedly said, "The main hall, the stone height of the Akao Tsu family is 11,000 stones, and they have 4,500 stones in Shirakaba Township, 3,300 stones in Iwasaki Township, and 3,200 stones in Iwaya. ”

"Hmm." Soji Tsugawa nodded, then after thinking about it for a while, he continued, "Since this is the case, then give the Iwaya Township Zhiyuki 3200 to the Takizawa family." The generals Zang Liji Castle and Tashiro Castle gave 3,000 stone Chiyuki to the Yajima family! "Iwaya Township is the domain of the former Yuri Twelve Iwaya family, next to the Takizawa family. The area around Tashiro Township, where Zang Liji Castle and Tashiro Castle are located, is the old domain of the Yashima family.

"More halls!"

"I, the Yajima family, will do my best for the main hall!" Mitsuhisa Lost Island and Masashi Takizawa were both excited to express their gratitude to Soji Tsugawa again.

A master family like the Tsugawa family is basically "unique" in this era. Serving such a master family is undoubtedly an extremely happy thing for small wealthy families like the Takizawa family and the Yajima family.

"Now that everything is decided, it's time for us to return to Dewa!" Soji Tsugawa continued, "The Takahashi family is still recuperating from their injuries in Ueno Castle, and the affairs of Purple Wave County will be handled by the Hiroshi family for the time being. ”

"Hah!" Yoshikawa Hiroya hurriedly replied.

"Pay attention to the development of agriculture and the reclamation of wasteland! In particular, Iwate County has a territory area comparable to that of Senhoku County, but the stone height is only 26,000 stones! There are rivers like the Beishang River in the territory, and I don't know how the Sibo family and the southern family are doing! Soji Tsugawa complained while admonishing.

............

This time they sent troops to the Rikuchu region, and the Tsugawa clan captured the two counties of Iwate and Shiba, and subdued a wealthy clan in the Rikuchu region, and the stone rose again to 250,000 koku. In the Ou region, it is already the most powerful force in the North Ou region. Looking at the entire Ou region, only the Date family can threaten the status of the Tsugawa family, but now the situation of the Date family is a bit complicated.

July 30, 14th year of astronomy.

The army of the Tsugawa family began to assemble at the Shizukuishi Imperial Palace, and then slowly advanced in the direction of Ueno Castle.

Walking on the mountain road on a war horse, Tsugawa Soji suddenly felt an uneasy emotion, raised his head and looked in the direction of the feather, "Could it be that something is happening?" ”

............

Something is happening, and it's a big deal!

Togo Yoshisuke and others went to Echigo, Noto and other areas as a goodwill mission of the Tsugawa family to carry out diplomatic goodwill activities, and they have achieved very good results.

There was great interest in the Tsugawa family, a newly rising power in the Ou region, whether it was the Echigo Nagao family, the Hatakeyama family of Noto, and the Asakura family of Echizen. He is also very enthusiastic about the gold, silver, kimchi, and high-quality cedar produced in the Tsugawa family.

In addition, the Tsugawa family has the largest port in the Tohoku region, and both Echigo and Noto merchants pass through Minato, so the Tsugawa family is very welcome, such as the Nagao family and the Hatakeyama family.

The head of the Nagao family, Nagao Harukei, even gave back a precious sword as a gift, and sent a retainer to follow Togo Yoshisuke and others to prepare to sign a trade agreement with the Tsugawa family! And the Hatakeyama family also verbally promised that the merchants of the Tsugawa family would enjoy some preferential treatment when they went to the Noto area in the future, but because the Hatakeyama family was arguing with the Jimbau's family in Echichu, and several retainers in the collar were also a little wrong, the Hatakeyama family could not communicate with the Tsugawa family at a deeper level for a while.

The Echizen Asakura family also sent retainers as envoys to return to Dewa with Togo Yoshisuke and others, preparing to sign a maritime trade agreement with the Tsugawa family.

At this time, it was inside the castle tower of Minatojo. The envoy of the Echigo Nagao family and the envoy of the Echizen Asakura family are having dinner in the company of Yoshijo Daida Keimune.

The envoy of the Echizen Asakura family was Aoki Keiyasu, who was known as the "Fuchu Mission", and he was accompanied by Asakura Keiren, who was also a member of the Asakura family, known as the "One Ride Valley Four Missions". And the envoy of the Echigo Nagao family was the adoptive father of Naoe Minoru (Naoe Keixuna, Naoe Kanesu), the lord of Itachi Castle. There was also a young man who had just been in Yuanfu for a short time, and he was looking at the retainers of the Tsugawa family around him with a curious expression.
