Chapter 447: First Step

The gates of Yuzuki Castle were wide open, and Kono Tsunao and others knelt outside the castle to welcome Hosokawa Nobumoto, who had already surrendered unconditionally.

"See Yamatata!" Seeing Hosokawa Nobumoto riding his horse, Kono took the lead in saluting.

"Well, Kono-sama has also worked hard, so you must have realized something, right?" Hosokawa Nobumoto rode on his horse and looked down at a group of people.

"Yes..."Kono lay straight on the ground, his body couldn't help but tremble slightly, no one wanted to die, especially when he was so young.

"I am willing to serve as my lord's intermediary, and I also ask the Hosokawa Hall to spare the soldiers and civilians in the city!" Kono Tsuyoshi took over the words, and it seemed that he didn't want his lord to bear too much oppression, and his loyalty was commendable.

Stampede! Hosokawa Nobumoto got off his horse, walked in front of Kono Tsunao, leaned his hand back, and the little surname Manfukumaru Asai respectfully handed over a sword.

Hosokawa Nobumoto took the sword and looked at it carefully in the sun, and the Kono in front of him was already sweating profusely, his back was soaked, and he was trembling. Kono Tsuyoshi behind him looked worriedly, could it be that Hosokawa Nobumoto was ready to end the lord's life here?

The name of this knife is Mikazuki Sokin, and it is the work of the swordsmith Sanjo Sokin of the Heian period, and the inscription is "Sanjo". Originally, it was a famous sword kept secret by the Ashikaga Shogun's family, and it is said that at the time of the Eiroku Change, Shogun Yoshiki wielded the Mikazuki Sect and fought to the death. When we meet for the first time, we can use it as a gift. As he spoke, Hosokawa Nobumoto handed the knife forward. The knife fell into the hands of Miyoshi Masayasu at the time, after which Masayasu dedicated it to Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"It's... Thank you for your kindness... Next... I will use this name knife in the next ... Come... Come and commit suicide by seppuku..."Kono Tong took the three days of the moon sect tremblingly, holding back tears and not flowing out.

"Seppuku? Hahaha! Hahaha! Hosokawa Nobumoto suddenly burst out laughing, and Kono's straight face turned even paler, and his facial muscles began to twitch.

"Okay, I've decided to transfer Mikawa Shiraku County to you, and you will be there in the future to serve my Hosokawa family." Nobumoto Hosokawa pulled Kono up and patted him on the shoulder.

"Turn? Resealed? Kono looked at Hosokawa Nobumoto unexpectedly, he thought that this time he was dead, but he didn't expect... can survive.

"But if you do, I hope you don't have any more unrealistic ideas, if you have..."

"No, no, no... Oh no, my lord! The subordinates never dare to have different intentions! Thank you for not killing! Kono hurriedly knelt down and bowed again, for a fourteen-year-old child, being alive is better than anything else.

"Excellent! Let's go into town! With that, Hosokawa Nobumoto turned over on his horse again and glanced down at Kono Tsunao, who took the reins knowingly.

With Hosokawa Nobumoto entering Yuzuki Castle, Iyo Province was officially incorporated into the Hosokawa family's domain. At the same time, fierce naval battles broke out on Sado Island.

"Fire!" Nine Ghost Yuanlong ordered loudly, and the three ironclad ships bombarded one after another.

"Archery!" Japan' Benna Sasuke's Tango Navy is also a thousand arrows, and the Navy on the opposite side is unexpectedly strong, there are fifteen ships alone, and more than 200 small morning ships, you must know that there are only four Tango ships.

"Where is this trolls? How can there be so many closed ships? "Nine Ghost Yuanlong frowned, although the enemy army is stronger than in the phenomenon, but there are ironclad ships here, and the battle situation is still a one-sided slaughter.

"The enemy is back!" The lookout shouted loudly, and saw that the enemy troops began to withdraw in an orderly manner, and their military discipline was strict.

"The reason why I didn't leave just now seems to be picking up the people on the island..."Nine Ghost Gentaka felt that something was wrong, and after completing the vigilance, the Hosokawa Standing Army began to land one after another.

"Huh? Didn't you say that Sado Province was ruled by the Honma clan? Why didn't you see a city after walking so far? Miyata Miyata Mitsuji said strangely, they have been walking for so long that they haven't even seen anyone.

"It's weird, go! Let's dig a little deeper! "Masaharu Mikoda also thinks it's a little strange, it stands to reason that Sado Island also has a population of 50,000, and now it feels like entering an uninhabited island.

"Look! What is that! Sasa pointed to a mine, where it seemed that someone had mined it.

"It must be Silver! Didn't you say that there are mountains of silver mined here? Maeda Toshiya looked left and right, but there was still no one.

"Let's go, go over and have a look! The whole army obeys the order! Search Forward! "Masaharu Kamikoda and others cautiously advanced, and the standing army also surrounded the entire mining area and scattered to conduct sweeping searches.

"My lord! Look here! A Hosokawa samurai shouted loudly, and the crowd hurriedly gathered around, only to see a few golden objects left on the ground.

"This isβ€”" Masaharu Mikoda bent down and picked up the golden thing.

"It's gold!" Only then did the crowd see clearly that this was a piece of broken gold.

"There's that too!" "My lord, too!" A lot of small gold was found around.

"My lord! This mine is full of gold! This is a gold mining area! ”

"What! Sado Gold Mine has been mined! Doesn't it mean that no one knows? What's going on! "Masaharu Mikoda and the others hurriedly ran into the cave, and there was a complete mining passage in front of them, and there was still unmined gold in the deepest part.

"Someone got ahead of the game?" Everyone looks at me, I look at you, and they are all very curious.

"My lord! Captured two enemies and three miners! "They withdrew in a hurry, and there were still a few people who didn't have time to board the ship.

"Say! Which ashigaru are you? How long have you been here! "Masaharu Mikoda began the interrogation on the spot.

"Humph!" The two ashichi turned their heads stubbornly and stubbornly did not speak.

"Huh?" Everyone thought it was strange that when a peasant soldier was caught, he would beg for mercy and tell him what he knew, and only a samurai would be silent like this.

The two ashigaru were dressed in Kirimaru and wore a jinkasa on their heads, and although they were so well armed, it was clear that they were not samurai either.

"Humph!" Miyata Mitsuji stepped forward with a knife and killed one of them on the spot.

"Oh my god! Spare your life! Spare your life! The three miners were so frightened that they begged for mercy, but the other ashigaru was only slightly pale and still silent.

"You! Say! Who are they! Maeda Toshiie pointed a knife at a miner, blood still dripping from the blade.

"It's... It'sβ€”" The miner stole a shuddering glance at the still alive Ashigaru.

"Don't look at him! Say it! Maeda Toshiya put the knife directly on his neck and shouted.

"Don't, don't, don't! I say, I say! "He's so scared that his pants are wet.

"You dare! Watch out for your family's life! Ashigaru next to him suddenly burst out and began to threaten the miners, but fortunately he was held down by Hosokawa Ashigaru.

"Humph! Since you're looking for death! Then I will fulfill you! With a stab, Maeda Toshiya killed the last ashigaru on the spot.

"Okay, you can say it now, and when you finish speaking, everyone else will die, and no one will know what you said, and your family will be safe. But if you don't say... Hmph, die now! Masaharu Mikoda looked at the shivering miner fiercely. Please pay attention to the latest chapters in the future
