Chapter 246: Restoring the Family Name

Nobunaga took the three codexes, and while casually flipping through them, he said, "You did a good job this time, and I decided to seal you with a thousand stone Zhixing in North American Thick Earth City." ”

After Nobunaga finished speaking, the clan should have been grateful, but although he wanted this land of a thousand stones, he did know that the greatest credit this time was not himself, but Takenaka Hanbei and Maenno Nagayasu, and even Ando Mamoru had more credit than himself.

If you receive a thousand stone Zhixing from Hijikata Castle, if Nobunaga knows the ins and outs of this matter in the future, he will definitely look down on himself, this is a major matter related to the spirit of bushido, or don't ruin your good future for a little profit.

Thinking of this, I only heard the clan sect speak: "Lord, the reason why the subordinates were able to return the three of Meinong to sleep so smoothly this time is not the work of the subordinates, and the subordinates dare not take the order, and ask the lord to take back the order." ”

It's not once or twice that the clan has given credit, but Nobunaga asked with interest, "It's not your credit this time?" Then I'll hear it. ”

"It's the lord, before his subordinates went to Nishiminon, Lord Takenaka Hanbei wrote a letter to Zaixia, and asked Zai to transfer it to Lord Ando Mori, and when he returned to the family of the Sho family, it was also Maeno Nagayasu who led the army to attack Tsuchida Castle, which would be successful, and when he returned to Inaba Ichitetsu, if there was no help from Ando Mamoru in bed, it would not have been so smooth, so his subordinates did not dare to take credit, and asked the lord to decide."

The clan briefly reported the ins and outs of the three people who had returned to Nobunaga, and Nobunaga listened to it. couldn't help but nodded, he was very satisfied with the clan sect's move, he could completely hide the credit of Takenaka Hanbei, Maenno Nagayasu and Ando Shousu, and monopolize the great credit, but the clan did not do this, but told himself the truth, this loyalty alone is not comparable to ordinary retainers.

However, the Oda family can have the current prestige, in addition to the retainers' lives, but also because the family's rewards and punishments are clear, take the matter of the three people who returned to Mino to live, this Takayama clan is just running errands, it can be said that if it is replaced by someone else, it can also be successful, this credit is too meager, with his current status, it is impossible to get any substantial reward.

However, Nobunaga suddenly thought that this Takayama clan is now a general, and Zhixing has as many as 8,000 stones in North America, but since the flag under his command is still a blue papaya flag on a white background, with his current identity, he should have his own family crest and horse seal a long time ago.

But looking at his appearance, he doesn't seem to care about this matter at all. Did he forget? How could this be, as a samurai, isn't the ultimate pursuit of becoming a prince?

And Nobunaga still clearly remembers that when the clan was loyal to him, didn't he always want to restore the family name of the Takayama family? Now that he is fully capable of recovering, why has he not moved?

Thinking of this, Nobunaga felt a little puzzled, but he figured it out in an instant, I'm afraid that this Takayama clan is waiting for his canonization, so there has been no movement.

After all, with his current status, he can use his Gaoshan family's family crest and horse seal to restore the Gaoshan family's family name, but if this is the case, it will be a little hasty, and if it is canonized by himself, it will be justified.

In this case, let's use this as a reward for his credit and mission to the Asai family.

Thinking of this, Oda Nobunaga no longer had any hesitation, and only listened to him solemnly say: "Senbei"

Seeing that Nobunaga's expression was so serious, the clan didn't feel a little confused, and he didn't know what medicine Nobunaga bought in the gourd, but he still hurriedly saluted and replied, "My subordinates are here, please give instructions from my lord." ”

"I now allow you to restore the name of the Takayama family, and you can use the family crest, horse seal."

"Thank you, my subordinates swear allegiance to the lord and the Oda family." Although the clan replied very happily, he was unimpressed in his heart.

In his opinion, it doesn't matter whether it is to use the papaya pattern flag or the family crest of the Takayama family, in this era, only strength is the most important.

However, then again, since Nobunaga allowed himself to restore the name of the Takayama family, what exactly did the family crest and horse seal of the Takayama family look like? …,

The Takayama family is an inconspicuous and little-known small wealthy family in the Warring States Period of Japan, and it is located in the remote Hida country, and the ghost knows what the family crest he uses is, and whether there is a horse print or not, the Uchijima family should know the way, but if he sends someone to ask, then it will not be exposed? How can this be?

The clan thought about it again, since he didn't know what the Taoist family crest looked like, then he would just create his own, anyway, his own restoration of the Takayama family name was also given by Oda Nobunaga, and his own brave name has long been better than his predecessors, so it is not too much to change the family crest by himself. Thinking of this, the clan was relieved again.

"If you don't have anything else to report, then go back immediately and step up your training and wait for the order to attack Inabayama Castle." Nobunaga saw that there was no other thing to report, so he didn't speak.

"It's the lord, and his subordinates are retiring." After speaking, the clan stood up and respectfully retreated.

After a solid sleep in Komakiyama Castle, the next morning, the clan set off to return to Hachiman Castle in the gun, and when passing by Sagiyama Castle, he remembered the restoration of his family name, although it was not a big deal in his eyes, but in the eyes of the samurai of this era, I am afraid that there is nothing more important than this matter, anyway, since the Saito family lost the 1,500 ashigaru, even the defense is not enough military, how can it be possible to send troops to attack?

Moreover, between this Sagiyama Castle and Inabayama Castle, there are still many Oda family castles, and there is absolutely no possibility of fighting, so after the clan arrived at Sagiyama Castle and rested for a while, he decided to take the Maeda Toshiya family back to Gujo Hachiman Castle to discuss the restoration of the family name, and after the results are available, let him come back to continue the town.

However, this makes the clan can't help but think, because of the principle of not collecting waste, so in the family, it can be said that there is no reserve samurai at all, before the territory was small, when the status was low, I didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but now the territory has 8,000 stones, including the city, there are already four cities under the rule, in case if the important ministers in the family are gathered, then the other three cities will only be left with the flag of the samurai, although their combat power is very strong, but, if there is no samurai command, After all, it's a plate of loose sand. ……,
