After the Nine Ghost Family, the Nine Ghost Yoshitaka, the future pirate daimyo, was forced to commit suicide by cutting his belly at the strong request of Hosokawa Nobumoto. The head of the family, Kuki Yagoro, watched from the sidelines, his face turned pale with fright, and his legs and stomach were spinning.

"Okay, Yagoro, you will follow me in the future, if you have two hearts, it will be your uncle's fate!" Hosokawa Nobumoto led Yagoro and prepared to return to Sekigahara Castle.

"Yes, please rest assured, Lord... The Nine Ghost Family will definitely die... Swore to follow the Hosokawa family and swore allegiance to the lord. Yagoro hurriedly expressed his loyalty, as the head of the Nine Ghost Family, Oda Nobunaga let him join the culprit Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"Hehe... That's good, I'll introduce you to a personal acquaintance later, and you can get along well in the future. Hosokawa Nobumoto thought of Murakami Motoyoshi and the water army that was being prepared.

In this evaluation, in addition to rewarding those who have made meritorious contributions, I don't know if Oda Nobunaga was premeditated or inspired by the Nine Ghost Family.

Suddenly, it was decided that the third son, Sanchimaru, would enter the Ise Kobe family and become the adopted son of Kobe Gumori, and inherit the position of head of the family in the future.

"Congratulations! Congratulations to my lord! "In the assessment room in Sekigahara Castle, the Hosokawa family and all the ministers were beaming, not only did the Hosokawa family add two new sons, but they were also promoted to the guardian generation of the half-country, becoming the first super-family elder of the Oda family.

"This joint battle is all thanks to your efforts, Yahachiro, let's read out the latest appointments." Hosokawa Nobumoto is also full of red light, this time he sealed 40,000 stone in Koga County of Omi Province, and the head of the Hosokawa family is close to 100,000 stone!

"The current general leader of this family has 93,000 stones." As soon as these words came out, the ministers of the Hosokawa family were overjoyed.

"Promote Hosokawa Haruyuki and Tao Haruxian to be the generals of the family, and promote ......" Honda Masanobu began to read out the list of promoted personnel, and almost everyone was promoted to one level, and they were rewarded with knowledge and deeds.

"The reward has been handed out to everyone, and I have decided to form a thousand Omi people! Among them, there were 500 iron cannons standing on stand, and the general Gamo Kenhide was in command. "The Iron Artillery Team was handed over to Yoriki Gamo Kenxiu, which was much to everyone's surprise.

"Huh? Thank you, Hosokawa-sama, and do your best! Gamo Xianxiu was very excited, he didn't expect that he would have an important position with Li Neng, but in fact, Hosokawa Nobumoto didn't care, sooner or later he was his own person.

"Takuzhi Kiyohiro was promoted to the rank of Iron Artillery General, and assisted Gamo Kenhide in commanding the Iron Artillery Team." Hosokawa Nobumoto transferred Takue Kiyohiro to the Iron Cannon Team, and he was the first iron cannon master of the Hosokawa family, and he created the iron cannon school of "Majestic Wind Flow" (Takuzhi Flow).

"Yes, my lord!" Takuzhi Kiyohiro was happy to arrive, he could finally show what he had learned, and he was ready to use the three-stage attack method immediately.

"Another 500 people formed a ninja army, and Igazaki Michishun was promoted to the head of the ninja army, commanding the ninja army, and accompanying Nagasogin and Mochizuki Yoshicho served as the head of the ninja army." The original ninja army was taken away by Deura Morikiyo, so Hosokawa Nobumoto reused the Koga ninja to form a new ninja army.

"Yes, my subordinates have orders!" Ban Naganobu is the head of the Koga family, and he joined the Hosokawa family in the Battle of Kannonji Castle. Mochizuki Yoshicho is the Koga Mochizuki family, the grandson of Mochizuki Yoshito, and will inevitably inherit the Mochizuki family in the future, and is now in the Hosokawa family.

The cavalry samurai team was expanded to 300 people, and the commander-in-chief of the reserve 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 samurai on horseback have achieved outstanding results, and they have all been promoted by one rank except for the birth of Ii Naoto.

"Yes! Subordinates receive orders! "Yamanaka Toshibo is the head of the Yamanaka family in Koga, and the battle of Kannonji Castle joined Hosokawa. Keer Caizang is Sun Taro, who has just been served, and Yasutoyo Yamauchi is the younger brother of Yamauchi Kazutoyo.

"There are still 200 people in the bow, and they are led by the general Naito Masanari, and Masuda Nagatoshi and Honda Masashige are the generals." As the Hosokawa family began to form an iron artillery team, the number of bowashigaru fell into a stage of stagnation, but due to its perennial battles, the whole team began to develop in the direction of bow samurai.

"The family decided to start forming a water army, and for the time being, the head of the water army, Murakami Motoyoshi, is in charge, and the head of the water army, the nine ghosts Mototaka is assisted." Hosokawa Nobugen began to initially establish a naval army and build warships, and the nine ghosts Yuanlong was just subdued, and the head of the nine ghost family, Yagoro, took Hosokawa Nobumoto to be biased against the word "yuan".

"Yes! Thank you for your trust! The subordinates will definitely live up to their expectations! Murakami Motoyoshi was excited to receive the order, and he also wanted to be like his father Murakami Buyoshi, crisscrossing the rivers, seas and lakes.

With the growing strength of the Hosokawa family, the armaments under its jurisdiction increased day by day, and the samurai class was well stocked, and finally began to develop in the direction of multi-arm coexistence.

"My lord, there is still a lack of iron cannon equipment, and the original five hundred iron cannons have been allocated to the navy. And at present, the naval army has not yet taken shape, do you need to return the iron cannon to the iron artillery team first? Wait for the second batch of iron cannons to arrive next year, and then give it to the water army? After the deployment of the armament was arranged, Honda Masanobu raised the embarrassing situation in front of the Iron Artillery Team, which caused Murakami Motoyoshi to grin reluctantly.

"I've also thought about this matter, and it just so happens that Konishi Lonzo has invited the famous iron cannon craftsman Shibatsuji Kiyoemon, and I am going to set up an iron cannon workshop under Sekigahara Castle to specialize in the production of iron cannons." Hosokawa Nobumoto decided to be self-sufficient, and the excess could be sold for money.

"The Iron Artillery Brigade took this opportunity to study Hosokawa's military discipline for two months, as well as military physical training, and then went to the Iron Artillery Workshop to familiarize themselves with the production and use of iron cannons." Hosokawa Nobugen wants to turn the iron cannon production into assembly line production, and he has the Daming Bird Gun in his hand, and he wants to optimize it according to the actual situation of the local area.

"Okay, the rest of you will do your part, I'm going to inspect the newly acquired territory to see if there are any talents." Hosokawa Nobumoto clapped his hands and dismissed the meeting, he remembered that there were many talents here in Omi Province, and this inspection was ready to catch them all.

"What! The Fujido family and the Otani family have all joined the Asai family! Hosokawa Nobumoto, who arrived in Minami-Omi, realized the seriousness of the matter.

It turned out that when the coalition army was in Kamiraku and the Asai army stayed in Minami Omi, they gathered many local samurai, including the Fujido family and the Otani family.

The Fujido family is actually just a weak wealthy family, the ancestor was originally just a farmer, and the current head of the family, Fujido Yasutaka, is just a low-level samurai, and now he is following Asai Nagamasa.

And the reason why Hosokawa Nobumoto cares about this Fujido family is because the son of Fujido Yasutaka is the Daimyo who will receive Ise 320,000 stone in the future, Fujido Takatora.

As for the Otani family, it is because the son of Otani Yoshibo, the future leper Otani Yoshitsugu, is called by the monkey as a handsome man who can command a million soldiers.

"So, Minami Omi has been plowed by the Asai family, and there are no more samurai available?" Hosokawa Nobumoto sat on the main seat and asked a high-ranking samurai who was in his hand.

"That's pretty much it." The samurai said helplessly, he was the nominal Omi guardian Hosokawa Fujiken, but now he was willing to sit under the position of Hosokawa Nobumoto, the guardian of the South Omi.

"Hey..."Hosokawa Nobumoto also sighed helplessly, a lot of things have happened in the past few months since he was injured.

Looking up in the direction of Izumo Province, I don't know how Niko Motohisa and they are preparing.
