Chapter 212: Year-end assessment

In the western country, the Nizi family defeated the Maori family, and the governor of the Maori family, Maori Moto, died, and his grandson, Maori Terumoto, ascended the throne.

In Gyeonggi, with the intervention of the imperial court and the shogunate, the Oda family and the Asakura family reached a peace agreement, and both sides called off their troops and returned to their territories.

Oda Nobunaga still arranged for Kinoshita Hideyoshi and Niwa Nagahide to stay at Yokoyama Castle and Kannonji Castle to suppress Asai Nagamasa in Kita-Omi, and secretly instructed Niwa Nagahide to carry out a strategy against Kita-Omi.

In addition, Oda Nobunaga also left Nakagawa Shigemasa, who was born in black clothes, and asked him to stay in the Azuchi area to strictly guard against every move of the Rokkaku family.

This year's winter is particularly cold, and the rebel armies have also been disbanded and returned home, each huddling together to keep warm, waiting for the spring of the next year, when it breaks out again.

"The lord has arrived!" In the Ohiro room of Devon City, the Hosokawa family held a year-end evaluation.

I saw Hosokawa Nobumoto wearing blue stripes hanging down, holding a folding fan, striding to the main seat and sitting down.

"See the lord! I wish the lord and the martial arts prosperous! Hosokawa parents are prosperous! "All the retainers visited the shrine together, and in the course of the year, the Hosokawa family grew again.

"Hmm... Thanks to all of you for your dedication to public service this year, please get up. Hosokawa Nobumoto held his hand weakly and signaled that Yoshida Sokatsu could start the assessment.

"Yes!" Yoshida unfolded a scroll of the Codex and began to read it.

"Since last year, the main family, the Oda family, has participated in the battles of Ogawa, Noda, Fukushima, Ishinobe, and Shiga in the battles of Asakura, Asai, Miyoshi, and Shiga. The family even conquered the three counties of Mingcao, Haibe, and Mulou in Kii Province, and obtained 190,000 stone high. "Kii Province Muro County is the domain of the "Hachishoji" in the Kumano Sea area, the Nakusa County is the domain of Nerai, and the Umibe County is the command of the Suzuki people and the Kii Naval Army.

In addition, he also recaptured the main family's Kishiwada Castle, and was rewarded with 60,000 kokugao of Kishiwada Castle for his merits. Now the total leader of this family is 360,000 stone high! ”

"Oh...!" Speaking of this, all the retainers roared excitedly, and the Hosokawa family can now be regarded as a powerful name of the Oda family.

"Promoted Oura to Shin as a general, and served as the commander of the five hundred miscellaneous grega. Ashigaru General Shigeharu Tsuchihashi and Motoshige Suzuki were assigned to Saga Bei as commanders. Yoshida then began the division of armaments and personnel appointments.

"Thank you for your promotion!" General Saga Bei went out to worship the company, and Shigeharu Tsuchihashi joined the Hosokawa family after the war, and succeeded him as the head of the Tsuchihashi family. And Suzuki Motoshige was still too young, so he was served by Suzuki Shigetoki in the later service and commanded the battle.

"The German garrison was expanded to 1,000 standing reserves, and the commander of the reserve was the general Tao Qingxian. The general Takigawa interests, together with Riyamauchi Kazutoyo, the ashigaru generals Shigenobu Hayasaki, Kanamaru Shoji, Nakamura Kazuji, Miyata Mitsuji, and Oto Chinobu served as commanders. ”

"Yes!" Although the German and Wenbei generals came out to Bai Xie, although they did not accumulate merit and promotion, but the expansion of the reserve team is also a joyful thing.

"Sekihara was expanded to 1,000 standing ashigaru, and the commander of the reserve was the general Hosokawa Haruyuki, the general Shima Katsutake, and the power bee house Yoratora, and the ashigaru general Tao Tadamoto, Kaida Keikane, Shingo Soji, and Treasure Temple Yinei served as the commanders."

"Yes!" The generals of Sekihara were also not promoted, but they were also expanded.

The name of Kishiwada Castle was changed to Jokai Castle to commemorate the victory of the Hosokawa family in pacifying the Inland Sea. 500 Dinghai Beishigaru was formed, and the general Gamo clan served as the commander of the reserve, and the Ashigaru generals Matsuura Munekiyo and Terada Masaka, and the head of the Ashigaru group, Konishi Yuki, served as the commander. ”

"Xie Hosokawa-sama promoted!" The original general of the Gamo clan was the general of the chamberlain, and he was the son-in-law of Oda Nobunaga, so he was appointed as the commander of a reserve, and the Hosokawa retainers had no objections. Konishi Yukinaga is the second son of Konishi Ryoza of Kaimachi, and his original surname was Yamaru.

"The Zhezhi team, the Suzuki team, and the Tsuda team were merged into the Hosokawa Iron Artillery Team, with a total quota of 3,000 people. He was promoted to the rank of general and served as the commander of the reserve, and the iron artillery generals Tsuda Sumasa, Igazaki Michishun, and Suzuki Shigehide of the Suzuki family served as commanders. The garrison of the Iron Artillery Brigade and the Iron Cannon Workshop was moved to Saga Castle. "Hosokawa Nobumoto transferred Igazaki Michi's obedient ninja army to the iron artillery team, because he is also extremely good at iron cannons, and he can be regarded as a person who makes the best use of his talents. Moreover, Saga Castle is strategically located, which is extremely convenient for the lightning operations of the iron artillery team.

"Thank you for your promotion!" The general of the Iron Artillery Corps came out of Lebaisei, and Shigehide Suzuki, as a retainer of the Suzuki family, entered the Iron Artillery Corps to command, and Hosokawa Nobumoto did not want to bury his talent.

"The general of the main family, Izura Shengqing, leads a thousand ninja troops, and the head of the ninja army, Ukai Sun Liu, Ban Changxin, and Mochizuki Yoshicho are in charge of command."

"Yes!" The ninja generals came out to worship the sheel, and a few of them didn't need to wear masks.

"The samurai on horseback was expanded to 400 men, and the commander-in-chief was Honda Tadashikatsu. The horseback riding masters are Ii Naotora, Kamihara Yasumasa, and Iio Naokiyo, and the horseback riding group leaders are Yamanaka Toshifu, Kage Caizo, and Yamauchi Yasutoyo. "The cavalry samurai team has been expanded once, although the number is not large, only a hundred people have been added, but the cavalry samurai are the ace army of the Hosokawa family.

"Thank you, lord!" Honda was very happy, and the expansion of the army was the greatest reward for him.

"The bow samurai team was expanded to 300 people, led by the general Naito Masanari, Masuda Nagatoshi and Honda Masashige were appointed as the bow generals, and Naito was appointed as the representative of Devon Castle, and the main responsibility was to garrison Devon Castle." The outbreak of Nagashima Ichisumune made Hosokawa Nobumoto feel that the safety of the family was threatened, and a team of excellent archers was crucial to defense.

"Yes! The subordinates swear to defend Devon City to the death, please rest assured. "Naito Masanari's calm personality is very suitable for the garrison general, and now he has been promoted to the castle generation, not only to train his bow samurai, but also to bear the safety of Devon Castle, and in case of emergency, he can mobilize the commander Ashigaru.

"The port of Shima Kokuhaura is the base of the family's navy, and the navy has a quota of 4,000 people, and from now on we will build a new type of warship, the 'ironclad ship'. Murakami Motoyoshi was promoted to the rank of general and served as the commander of the naval army. With the subordinate army to serve Toriya O Mitsuei, the naval army generals Kuki Mototaka, Kohama Keitaka, Horiuchi Zen, Toriya O Takako, Sugi Ruo Clan, Sugi Ruo Wuxin, Toba Munetada. ”

"Thank you for your support! Subordinates swear allegiance to the lord to the death! Murakami Motoyoshi is now very excited, and he has finally become a naval army general like his father, who dominates the sea.

"Hattori Masaaki took over from Hattori Masaaki and continued to serve as the battlefield intelligence work of the family." Hosokawa Nobumoto was also saddened by the death of Hattori Hosho, who was an old minister who followed him in the first place.

"Yes!" Hattori Masaaki made a very brief promise, and he took over the position of his dead brother. Today's Hattori family has followed the main Hosokawa family to grow and develop, and the head of the family, Hattori Hanzo, is the leader of Hosokawa Nobumoto's hidden fog ninjas, and enjoys the general general's general.

"Let's announce the direction of the family's development in the coming year..."After reading out the armament deployment and appointment, Yoshida Munegui began to announce the strategic policy of the Hosokawa family, as well as rewarding Zhixing, etc..., you are lonely, and the young lady warms you with a movie
