Chapter 485: United Eight Prefectures

"Foreign Minister Hosokawa Shinyuki! Kitada Gutau! Hosokawa Fujitaka! Meet Yuuki Hall! "In the Ohiro room of Yuuki, the three of them saluted Yuki Qingchao in a proper manner.

"Oops, oops, Shimoyagata-sama! Kuniji-sama! Tango Mamoru Lord! The three envoys are invited to get up quickly, please get up quickly, you can't afford this great gift below. Yuki Harumo hurriedly stopped, although these three people are all matched by Hosokawa Nobumoto, but they are all daimyo who are in charge of a country, and they are all behemoth-like existences compared to him, a small daimyo who is not even half a country.

"Hehe... The ceremony cannot be abolished, and I am waiting here to form an alliance with your family on behalf of the Hosokawa family. "Hosokawa Shinyuki went straight to the point, and when he saw the brilliant achievements of Hidetsuna Kamiizumi a few days ago, he decided that he couldn't be left behind.

Since the end of the tournament, Hidetsuna Kamiizumi has led the new swordsmen back to China.

"Okay, this family needs a powerful foreign aid like the Hosokawa family!" Yuki Harumi hit it off, and several of their Kanto princes have been worried recently. This Hojo family was already difficult for them to deal with, and now there is an even more powerful Tsugawa family in the east, which makes the princes who are not strong in the first place even worse.

Now, the Hosokawa family can be said to be a charcoal in the snow, if the Hosokawa family can deal with the Hojo family, then they can concentrate on dealing with the Tsugawa family and don't have to fight on both sides.

"For this reason, my Hosokawa family fully recognizes your family leader, and is willing to marry Princess Sakura to your son." Hosokawa Shinyuki threw a bombshell again, which made the people of the Yuuki family suddenly talk about it and be surprised.

"It's... Is this true? Yuuki Harumo suspected that he had misheard, that he was just a small daimyo who had just escaped from the wealthy clan, and that he could be so pitied. Doesn't that mean... The right to speak in the "Oriental People" alliance has become more weighty.

"Of course! My Hosokawa family says yes! There has never been a broken word or a broken alliance! It's hard to say that Your Excellency is questioning the credibility of my Hosokawa family! Hosokawa Shinyuki's momentum rose sharply, and a sense of oppression came.

"No, no, no, your family's reputation is unquestionable, unquestionable." Yuki Harumu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, secretly blaming himself for being too talkative.

"Okay, let's sign the covenant in a while, and after the young master of your family is served, my Hosokawa family will send Princess Sakura immediately." Mayuki Hosokawa waved his hand, and now it seemed as if it had become his home turf.

"Yes, yes, come on! Submit the Pledge! Yuki Harumi hurriedly ordered someone to draw up the covenant, and after both sides confirmed that it was correct, they signed and signed it, and the covenant was announced to the world and took effect immediately.

"Lord Shimogatata, the covenant has been signed now, it is better to stay for a few more days, and it is better to enter the friendship of the landlord in the next place." When a major event was completed, Yuki Harumao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and earnestly retained, after all, they were both in-laws, and the relationship was one step closer.

"It's okay, it just so happens that we are also going to visit the princes from all walks of life, so please ask Lord Yuki to introduce you on your behalf." Hosokawa Shinyuki and the others also had a lot of contact with the Kanto daimyo to increase their trust.

"No problem! No problem! Wrapped in the lower body! In two days, I'll take you to visit Utsunomiya-sama, and then Satake-sama and them! Yuki Haruma looked like a guarantor, and he couldn't be more familiar with these local princes.

"That's good, then thank you Yuuki-sama." Hosokawa Mayuki and the others glanced at each other, to be honest, it was not difficult for them to marry on this trip, the main thing was to live up to the Kanto daimyo and make them recognize the hegemony of the Hosokawa family.

Two days later, Hosokawa Shinyuki and the others visited the Utsunomiya family again. He is different from the Yuki family, the Utsunomiya clan is one of the famous families of Japan, and claims to be a large family that follows the bloodline of the regent Seki Shirakuwara family, and the Yuki family was originally just the Koyama clan, a wealthy family in Shimono.

The interview went smoothly, Utsunomiya Kunitsuna was also a ten-year-old child, and Hosokawa Sakura was married to his own brother. In this way, the two families can be regarded as in-laws with each other.

Then, Shinichi Hosokawa and his entourage visited Satake's house, which was the leader of the "Oriental People".

"The foreign minister pays a visit to the Satake Palace!" When meeting for the first time, use more formal official etiquette.

"Please." Satake Yoshishige helped him a little, and now he has basically unified Hitachi Province and opened up the largest territory of the Satake family.

"The foreign minister is here to form an alliance with your family." Shinyuki Hosokawa said straight to the point.

Although the "Oriental People" alliance advances and retreats together, after all, each family is still in charge of its own affairs, so this alliance must be signed one by one, and no one can be pulled down, otherwise it will be a kind of inattention and exclusion.

"Okay, Shimoyagata-sama, please!" Yoshishige Satake has already prepared the covenant, and the intention of the Hosokawa family is already known to the people in their alliance, and now it's just a matter of going through the process and meeting each other.

With a few brushstrokes, Yoshishige Satake signed the covenant and asked the little surname to be solemnly handed over to Shinyuki Hosokawa. And the covenant on the Hosokawa family's side, Hosokawa Nobugen had already signed it and handed it over to the Satake family directly.

"I heard... A while ago, your family competed in Kashima, and they really dug up a lot of talented people, right? Satake Yoshishige was a little sour, regretting why he didn't expect this kind of thing, and let the Hosokawa family pick up the cheap in vain.

"Hehe... Have you heard that too ? Hehe... Not so exaggerated, not so exaggerated. Kitada Gujiao smiled and waved his hand, not giving the other party a real bottom.

"Hehe... Kokuji-sama is too modest, you all came by water, right? "It's strange that Yoshishige Satake can believe it, you must know that the two boys of his general, the Mabe Kugan family, have joined the samurai team of the Hosokawa family.

"Exactly." There's nothing to hide, there's no way they're coming by land, and there's the Hojo family in the way.

"Well, my family wants to buy some iron cannons, the kind of iron cannons that your family used in the battle of Xuan." Satake nodded emphatically, he actually wanted to buy some ordnance by sea.

"Sure, how many cannons do you need?" Hosokawa Shinyuki opened his mouth and asked, now the Hosokawa family, in addition to the original Saga Iron Cannon Workshop, has also absorbed the friends of the country who specialize in making iron cannons, and now thousands of them have been built.

Although I don't know what these new iron cannons Hosokawa Nobugen is going to do with them, Hosokawa Shinyuki knows that the Hosokawa family has now begun to sell those weapons that are about to become obsolete or obsolete, and I think it should be able to sell the old goods to the Satake family.

"Not much, just two thousand." Yoshishige Satake held out two fingers.

"Whew! What the! Two... Two thousand! Hosokawa Shinyuki was taken aback, this is not much, it is simply too much, you must know that the Hosokawa family only has three thousand iron cannons now.
