"Sinners... The sinner..."Anayama Nobujun trembled, lowered his head, and beads of sweat fell straight down.

"Hahaha! All right! You are not guilty! On the contrary, you still have merit! If you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, you deserve a reward! Hosokawa Nobumoto waved his hand, he actually hated this kind of person who turned against him and stabbed him in the back. As for those who were persuaded to surrender, he could not settle accounts after the autumn, otherwise no one would surrender in the future.

"Yes! The subordinates only hope to follow the lord before and after the saddle, and do their duty loyally, and there is nothing else to ask for. "After the cruel punishment just now, Anayama Shinjun has long since dared not have any distracting thoughts.

"Well, that's good. But... The promise I gave you will not change. I promise you Kai Hanoi's Domain, and allow Katsuchiyo to inherit the Takeda clan's family name! "Hosokawa Nobugen will not break his word, and Katsuchiyo is the concubine of Anayama Nobujun.

"Huh? Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord! "Anayama Nobujun is grateful, not only did the family business be preserved, but the heirs inherited the famous Takeda family, which can be said to be a lot of profits.

"But... Katsuchiyo is still a minor, so he will come to me to study for a while, and then he will inherit the Takeda family as soon as he becomes an adult. Hosokawa Nobumoto changed his words and said with an unquestionable taste.

"Yes, thank you for cultivating!" Anayama Nobuyojun can only say this, it is customary to offer hostages.

"Well, Kiso Yoshimasa!" Hosokawa Nobumoto nodded, and looked at the number one hero of this campaign. As for Hosokawa Smart Maru, although he has not yet made his first battle, he has won the unanimous affirmation of the Hosokawa family by virtue of his heavenly skills in besieging and killing Takeda Katsuyori's father and son.

"Yes! Subordinates are here! Kiso Yoshimasa's voice was like a bell, and he knew that he must be on the list of awardees, so he was very confident.

"In view of the great success of your campaign, I guarantee that your command will be safe. In addition, the two counties of Chikumo and Azumi were sealed. Hosokawa Nobumoto handed over Higashi Shinano to him again.

"Thank you, my lord! My Kiso family is willing to be loyal to the Lord for generations! Kiso Yoshimasa hurriedly bowed and went down, very satisfied.

"Ogasawara Sadakei! Give 100,000 stone to Ina County! Allow you to inherit the famous Ogasawara clan! Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at Ogasawara Sadakei again, and Kita-Shinano's later diplomatic persuasion work was all due to him.

"Huh? Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord! The subordinates will definitely serve their duties wholeheartedly! Swear to follow the Lord's house! When Ogasawara Sadakei heard this, tears of excitement came out, and he finally revived the Ogasawara clan.

Kiso Yoshimasa on the side pouted, and he couldn't help but feel a little jealous in his heart, the two counties he sealed were only 80,000 stones, which also included Fukashi Castle, the original residence of the Ogasawara clan.

"Hmm." Hosokawa Nobumoto nodded, signaling that Ogasawara Sadakei could step down, in fact, Nobumoto took a fancy to Sadakei's noble bloodline, so he would give a big reward. In any dynasty and in any era, noble bloodlines can often become a shortcut to promotion.

"Yahachiro, I am going to transfer the small county to Changyuki, so that he can serve the old leader of his family!" Hosokawa Nobumoto handed over the land of a county to Sanada Masayuki, after all, Sanada Town in Oprefectural County, also known as Matsuo Castle, was the residence of the Sanada clan before.

When Masayuki's father, Kotaka, came out of Takeda Shingen, the fief was here, and the nickname of Matsuo Castle was Ueda Castle, which probably meant that it was the residence of the Sanada clan.

"Yes! His Majesty made a note of it. Honda Masanobu responded lightly, and he was not dissatisfied in his heart, because he knew that although Sanada Masayuki, who was the old lord, had a land stone as high as 65,000 after the transfer, the lord would definitely seal others later.

"As for what's left of Shinano... I am ready to give it all to Zong Gui, and the old leader of his family will serve the public. He has followed his family for so many years, and his family affairs have always been handled in an orderly manner, so that every expedition has no worries. Sure enough, Hosokawa Nobumoto began to seal the old ministers who had followed his family for many years. The first to bear the brunt is the old Yoshida Zonggui of the pen family, minus the four counties that have been sealed out, there are still six counties with a total of 300,000 stones!

"Yes! His Majesty made a note of it. "Honda Masashi has a few notes, and this is an important one when he prepares for the next year-end meeting.

"Hiss..." The other Shinano wealthy families gasped, the new master in front of them was really generous, and a country was divided in just a few words. In this way, they all know that Hosokawa Nobumoto, except for Kiso Yoshimasa, Ogasawara Sadakei and Sanada Masayuki, who are direct ministers, the rest of the people are under the command of the lord of the country.

"Well, as for the Jiafei country, I still have to go back and think about it, and I will make the distribution at the end of the year." Hosokawa Nobumoto is now preparing to adopt the form of canonization of "grasping the big and letting go of the small", that is, when rewarding a country, the big wealthy families in its country will be his direct ministers, and the small wealthy families will be assigned to the lord of the country.

The advantage of this is that it can strengthen the control of the subject country, but also do not need to bother with the conflict of interests between the small wealthy clans.

In addition, he tied those lords and important wealthy families to himself, and as a member of the public family, he went to participate in political affairs or lead the standing army elsewhere. In the long run, under the Hosokawa clan's regime, they were able to transform from guardians of the daimyo (samurai) to a public (courtier).

Thinking of this, Hosokawa Nobugen looked sideways at the smart pill who was listening carefully, this future national policy related to the transformation of the Hosokawa family is not something that can be completed in minutes and a generation, but needs to be slowly digested and changed by several generations like them. Eventually, it will be realized.

"My lord, when will our army return?" Seeing that there was basically nothing going on, Honda Masanobu asked about the follow-up arrangements.

"It's still early, our army continues to advance and attack Ueno Province! Surrender those old Takeda departments who are still hesitating! Then Chen Bing waded into the river and forced the Hojo family in Higashi-Ueno! "This Takeda expedition went smoothly, and Hosokawa Nobumoto decided to continue his eastward advance.

"Yes!" Everyone is ordered together, if the Hojo family is like the Takeda family... It's exciting to think about.

The Hosokawa East and West armies did not join forces, but Hosokawa Haryuki led his own army to the south to support Matsudaira Nobuyasu, who had invaded the Higashi Suruga River, and jointly resist the westward advance of the Hojo family. Hosokawa Nobumoto led a large army all the way north, and after entering Ueno Province, he immediately advanced northeast to Shibukawa, under the fortress of the fortress.

In desperation, Hojo Takahiro, the lord of Stablebridge Castle, surrendered to Kaejo and became a slave with three surnames (Uesugi, Takeda, and Hosokawa), and the rest of the old Takeda tribes in Nishi-Ueno also expressed their submission.

At this point, half of Ueno Province was taken by the Hosokawa family without blood, and it officially bordered the Hojo family. And with Satake, Yuki, Utsunomiya and other "Oriental people" of the Sekiyashu daimyō, echoing from afar. Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
