Although Yamamoto Ichiro's reward of 5,000 koku was the richest in the history of the Tsugawa family, the rewards of the rest of the retainers that followed were equally high. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"The reward for the second class merit is announced below!"

"Komura Yoshijing, seal Jinchuan City, Dongxiang City, and Liangping City Zhixing 2,000 stones!"

"Grant Motoyama Tadanobu Waki Honjo, Oga Pavilion Zhiyuki 1,000 stones, and Iwafune Shiro Kitaura Castle Zhiyuki 500 stones. Give Shimazu and Saburo Minezawa Castle 500 stones! ”

The only people who received the second-class merit were Yoshikei Komura, Tadanobu Motoyama, Shiro Iwafune, and Yozaburo Shimazu. In terms of rewards, Yoshikage Komura is undoubtedly the most, but it is also inevitable. After all, Yoshikei Komura is the general who leads the army alone, and he has captured several cities of the Andong family, and the credit should be the first in the second class. The retainers did not have any objection to this.

Yoshikage Komura now has as many as 3,600 Zhixing, and he is the second highest retainer in the Tsugawa family.

And Shimazu and Saburo and Motoyama Tadanobu and others are even more high-faith, what were the identities of these three people before? Pirate! Ronin! Now that he has just taken refuge in the Tsugawa family, he has gained the knowledge to become the lord of the city, and he is placed in other forces, so don't think about it.

After announcing the second-class meritorious service, Takahashi Koke continued, "Next is the third-class meritorious service!" ”

"Shuichiro Yagyu, the lord of Zangliji Castle, and Hirohiro Ki, the wife of the lord of Shimomurakan Castle, were meritorious to the third class, and due to the change of the place of knowledge, Yagyu Shuichiro was transferred to Toshima Castle and given 800 stone of the land of knowledge. Tsumiki Hirohiro was transferred to Kubota Castle, and 1,000 stone of Zhixingdi! "Originally, Tsumiki Hirohiro's Zhixing was 400 stones, and Yagyu Shuiichiro was 200 stones, basically the two of them were equivalent to an increase of 600 stones, which is also good.

"Yoshikawa Hiroke sealed 500 stone of Hondo Castle Zhiyuki, Mizutani Kuji added 500 stone of Maeda Castle Zhiyuki, and Kawakami Tadakyo transferred to Nodaikan and gave 1,500 stone of Zhiyuki. Miki Naogo added the seal Kameda Castle Zhixing 400 stones! Immediately afterwards, the retainers who were in the middle of the second class were also rewarded.

“...................”

Two quarters of an hour later, the rewards of the samurai were announced. Takahashi then picked up another piece of paper from the hand of the wise Shibei, and said while examining it, "The following is the reading of the top ten meritorious soldiers in this battle, ashigaru and agricultural soldiers. ”

"Ashigaru, the first meritorious Lan Bei Ashigaru xxx, took one enemy samurai, 14 ashigaru, gave samurai status, and gave another 50 yuan."

"The second meritorious one is that Kanazawa Castle Ashigaru Miki Kojiro took 11 enemy Ashigaru people, gave him the status of a samurai, and gave another 30 kans."

"The third meritorious one is that Midori Ashigaru xxx, 10 people from the enemy Ashigaru were obtained, the status of a samurai was given, and another 25 pieces of money were given."

“.................”

Among the top 10 meritorious servicers, those who seek 10 heads are awarded samurai status and a certificate of appreciation by the lord according to the provisions of the Tsugawa family's "Hodo Shinshu" and "Military Regulations". Not only that, but the lord and leader of the city or party they are in will also receive additional rewards.

For these meritorious ashigaru, the retainers present also know whether they are under their own command. Seeing the ashigaru under his command being read out, I couldn't help but feel a little more brilliance on my face.

A few families are happy and a few are sad, and after a reward, some have received rich rewards, and some have only received "consolation prizes". But no matter what, at least the retainers in the palace were still very excited. Because from today onwards, the Tsukawa family has the final say in the Yugo area!

"In addition, the Miura family and the Fifty eyes family, who assisted the family in sending troops this time, gave the two families 1,000 stone of grain and 500 pieces of money respectively! And issue a security block, and the collar remains the same! Tsugawa Soji said at this time to Miura Moriji and Hideji Fiftyme, who were restless in the hall.

Hearing this, Miura Shengji and the two hurriedly came out of the queue, knelt on the ground, and said gratefully, "Thank you, the hall!" In the future, we, the people of Akita County, will definitely look forward to the main hall! ”

Miura Shengji and Hideji Igme were about to cry, because they both had no bottom in their hearts. I originally planned to help the Tsugawa family attack the Anton family, and get some battle functions to let the Tsugawa family "lightly" on themselves after the war. But I didn't expect to follow Akechi Mitsuhisa to attack the Yamamoto Pavilion, and the benefits were not reaped, not to mention, and I also lost dozens of ashigaru.

The two of them have been worrying about this matter for the past few days, but they didn't expect that Tsugawa Soji not only did not punish the two families, but on the contrary, he also allowed the two families to block the old collar and reward them with money and food. Suddenly, the two of them felt a strong sense of belonging to the Tsugawa family. I used to just hear rumors about how good it is to belong to the Tsugawa family, how second. Now that I've really experienced it, I realize that what I said is true.

Tsugawa Soji has always been very friendly to the wealthy families who are willing to obey, as long as they are willing to be obedient and don't mess around, then Tsugawa Soji doesn't mind this group of wealthy families following the Tsugawa family to pick up the cheap. But for those who are disobedient, Tsugawa Soji will never be soft. In the past four years, there have been more than ten or twenty wealthy clans that have been destroyed by Tsugawa Soji, and they don't care about a few more.

"My lord, I don't know how to deal with the retainers of the Anton family who surrendered to the family?" At this time, Yoshiki Komura suddenly spoke.

Soji Tsugawa was stunned when he heard this, but he forgot about it.

"Yoshiki Komura, do you have any good proposals?" Soji Tsugawa asked.

Komura Yoshiki thought for a while, and then said slowly, "My lord, I think that the retainers of the Anton family who took the initiative to surrender to their own family can be absorbed by the best of the best. They were scattered in Akita and Yamamoto-gun, and assisted Kiuchi-sama and Ogasawara-sama in pacifying the newly acquired territory. After the situation is stabilized, he will be sent to another use, I don't know what the Lord will do? ”

"Well, that's good!" Soji Tsugawa nodded heartily after hearing this, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Yoshiki Komura. is worthy of being a retainer who he focuses on cultivating, and the growth of Yoshikage Komura Tsukawa Soji is still in his eyes.

"In that case, the retainers of the Andong family who surrendered will be chosen by you. As long as it is a person of good character and outstanding ability, it can be accepted. However, their original Yulu and Zhixingji clans will not recognize them, so they will temporarily disperse to the various castles of their own families as leading samurai or ashigaru. Soji Tsugawa continued after thinking twice.

"Hah!" Yoshiki Komura hurriedly replied.

After half an hour, the evaluation was finally over. After the retainers left, Tsugawa Soji couldn't help but brace himself on the main seat, yawned and said, "Alas, I haven't slept well for several days, and I'm actually a little sleepy in the afternoon!" Jubei, let's go, let's go out for a walk and kill time! ”

"Yes! Lord! The wise ten guards hurriedly replied.

Everything in Hiyama Castle is very new to Soji Tsugawa and the others, after all, Soharu Tsugawa and the others are also coming for the first time. But after a brief stroll, Soharu Tsugawa was a little lacking in interest. Because although Hiyama Castle is very large, to be honest, Hiyama Castle also has Ueno Castle, and Hiyama Castle does not have Ueno Castle, which makes the freshness in Tsugawa Soji's original heart pass all of a sudden.

However, Soji Tsugawa was wandering around Hiyama Castle boringly, and the heads of other wealthy clans in the Ou area felt a little uncomfortable at this time.
