"The lord is too worried, not to mention that the Takayama family still has to consolidate the territory, and there is no time to separate at all, let's just say that those forces of Mutsu, with the character of the Takayama clan, if they are not eliminated, I am afraid they will not have a decisive battle with the main family, so that at least for three or five years, as long as the family does not make the first move, the Takayama family will never do such a reckless thing. In addition, those forces in Kyushu, if the lord sends others to go, it will be difficult to eliminate them in a year or two, and then the Takayama clan will definitely not stand idly by after thinking about the powerful relationship, with his support, Kyushu can still be pacified, the subordinates are really not easy to say, and if the subordinates go, the subordinates are willing to make a military order to eliminate the big friend within half a year, if not, the subordinates dare to be punished. ”

"This..." After hearing this, Kinoshita Hideyoshi was a little shaken. After all, it only takes half a year to completely control Kyushu, such conditions are too tempting, the whole territory of Kyushu is a number of countries, millions of stone land, and the stone height is not less than the land under his own jurisdiction, what kind of concept is this, as long as Kyushu is taken, then the strength of the Kinoshita family will be doubled, plus Takigawa, Niwa and others, such strength has left the Takayama family far behind.

In addition, for Kuroda Kanwei's rebelliousness, could it be that he thinks too much? Such a person should care about reputation the most, and when his strength crushes the Gao Shan family, how can he be sentenced to himself? Well, I must have thought too much about it.

Hearing the words of taking Kyushu in half a year, Kinoshita Hideyoshi was already red-eyed, and such a good thing was enough to dazzle his mind.

So when Kuroda Kanwei finished speaking, Kinoshita Hideyoshi only thought for a moment and agreed to his request, of course, such a big thing, it must not be as simple as you say that I can do it immediately as soon as I agree.

So after agreeing, the next step is to study the details of how to fight this battle, how much manpower and material resources are needed, and when to start the offensive.

And these things, Kuroda Kanbei had already thought about it before he came, he only needed the lord's consent, and the rest he didn't want the lord to participate at all, or send someone to send troops to participate, Kyushu is the foundation of the Kuroda family's life, if the lord sent someone to go with him, then after the matter is completed, how can he stay in Kyushu and not leave?

So when the lord talked about the proposal to make him a deputy general in Pai Kato Qingqing, he refused without hesitation, and said with confidence: "Lord, since the proposal to seize Kyushu for the family within half a year was put forward by his subordinates, then I ask the lord to agree to let his subordinates complete it alone, if there is the help of the lord, then how can he show the ability of his subordinates, so I also ask the lord to agree." ”

"Are you saying that I don't need to send a single soldier, and only rely on the Kuroda family to do it alone?" When Kuroda Kanbei finished speaking, Kinoshita Hideyoshi was surprised, how could he not know what happened to the Kuroda family, since he surrendered to himself, the Kuroda family moved out of Himeji Castle, although he did not treat them badly, and transferred his Zhixing to Niko Castle in Ako County for 80,000 stones. The Kuroda family's power is much worse than before, even if the troops are fully deployed, it is only about 4,000, such an army will capture Kyushu in half a year? Kinoshita Hideyoshi was a little incredulous.

And Kuroda Kanbei, saying half a year or something, is just a casual remark, really casually, if not afraid of being too frightened, he even wants to say that he has been here for three months, anyway, as long as he goes out, he doesn't plan to come back, the longer the time drags on, the better, as for the military order or something, do you care? There is no need to think about it at all, even if the lord can't bear to recruit himself back at that time? Won't you call yourself sick, how simple it is, as for the lord guild will not send troops to attack him, there is no need to worry about this, as long as there is a high mountain family for a day, the lord will never have such courage, and he is not a rebel, the biggest possibility is that the lord will recognize it.

"You really don't need me to send troops to help?" Kinoshita Hideyoshi asked in disbelief.

"Back to the lord, my subordinates are willing to use the power of the Kuroda family to build this immortal achievement, and ask the lord to complete it."

"Okay, if the offensive doesn't go well, you can send someone here, and I will definitely not stand idly by."

。。。

After leaving the castle tower with Kuroda Kanwei, he really had the feeling that the sea was wide and the sky was high and the birds could fly, and he couldn't wait to fly to Nizi City at this moment, and leave Honshu with all the troops and belongings of his family.

It's just that the food has to be eaten one bite at a time, and the road has to be walked step by step, from Azuchi to Harima, even if he hurries day and night, it will take him four days. As soon as he returned to Niko Castle, the Kuroda Kanbei didn't care about resting, and immediately summoned the important ministers known as the Kuroda Eight Tigers to the assessment room. Although the Kuroda family is not as good as yesterday, the retainers are not the only eight samurai, and the outside world is more familiar with the Kuroda Twenty-Four Horsemen, but among the twenty-four retainers, these eight people are more trusted, and the fewer people who know about this matter at present, the better, including the retainers, so it is a pity that the remaining sixteen people are unfortunately unable to attend this important meeting that will completely change the status quo of the Kuroda family.

The assessment room of Nizi Castle is not only incomparable with Azuchi Castle, but also a little shabby compared with ordinary castles, which is entirely because the Kuroda family has supported more than 20 samurai with a stone height of 80,000 stones, and there are also 4,000 troops, and this scale has been maintained, not to mention renovating the castle, it is now a little difficult for Kuroda Kanbei to come up with a few hundred, that is, because he often gives advice to Kinoshita Hideyoshi, and he can get some rewards from time to time, otherwise the Kuroda family would have been dragged down by these samurai and ashigaru. And now these problems will be completely solved with the entry into Kyushu, so at this moment, Kuroda Kanbei did not feel that this place was shabby, but a little emotional.

The retainers present here are also wondering now, could it be that something happened to the family in such a hurry for the lord to return to the territory in such a hurry? But I'm at home all the year round, how can I not know?

Without letting the retainers speculate for too long, Kuroda Kanbei ended his emotion and said solemnly: "Everyone, my Kuroda family's martial arts fortune has prospered from this moment!" ”

Just one sentence, and there was no emotion coming out of the mouth of Kuroda Officers and Soldiers, but all the retainers who heard this sentence suddenly felt extremely excited. They had waited too long for this day, but they were lucky, at least they were still alive, and the old retainers of the Kuroda family, especially the old retainers who had passed away as the Kuroda Kanbei moved out of Himeji Castle, they did not wait for this day.

Although those of you don't know why the lord said this, and they don't know how the family prospered from this moment, they believe that the lord will never say anything about this matter, because this has placed too many beliefs on the Kuroda family, including the lord, no one will joke about it.
