At this time, in the Kasuga mountain castle, Uesugi Keikatsu was having a meeting with Naoe Kanesuke, Kanya Keiji, Saito Asanobu, Sekinami, Yasuda Nomoto, Nakajo Keiji and others, and there were only these few people, they had Ueda and Yangbei, newcomers and old ministers, and it could be said that they represented the interests of all parties, and it was a harmonious meeting and a victorious meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you should know the purpose of recruiting you here this time, right?" Uesugi Keikatsu said with a word like gold.

"The Kuroda family is currently at the border of the family, right, the family only has the Echigo country, and it is really not worth mentioning in terms of strength compared to the Kuroda family, in this case, I think the best situation at the moment is to submit to the Kuroda family, only then can the family continue to continue, otherwise it is likely to be wiped out by the Kuroda family, not only the Uesugi family, but also the wealthy families and motherland people under our command must also have the same fate." Yasuda said at this time.

"I don't think so, the Kuroda family is indeed powerful now, but the Kuroda family's army attacking Hokuriku Province is only 18,000 people, and they have been through two to three years of war, so the soldiers must be exhausted at this time. Even if there are only 15,000 people in the family, it shouldn't be too difficult to defeat them. Nakajo immediately expressed his different opinion.

"Yes! It is not impossible to defeat the Kuroda family, and you must know that if you want to submit to the Kuroda family, then you must accept the conditions that the Kuroda family is now implementing to keep 60% of the land and transfer it to another country, are you willing to accept such harsh conditions? Minister Se said loudly.

"Actually, it's not impossible to accept such conditions, you must know that if you don't accept the Kuroda family's conditions, it seems that the Kuroda family is currently preparing to unify the world at once, or at least occupy most of the land in the world in the short term. Therefore, the Kuroda family will never allow other resistance forces to exist, surrender or perish, there are only these two paths.

And if you only keep sixty percent of the land, it is not unacceptable to surrender to the Kuroda family but be able to protect your family. After all, you must know that in the case of retaining sixty percent of the land, the family power can be preserved, which is the basis for accepting this condition. "Kan Kazuchi apparently agreed to submit to the Kuroda family.

"It's not bad to say, but when has the family been afraid of foreign forces, even if it was as strong as the Oda family back then, they have never been afraid, and they will be beaten to the point next to the Tetori River, and this time the family will also have a battle against the Kuroda family, as long as the enemy who comes will defeat it." Nakajo Keishi said again.

"Lord Nakajo Keiko, if the family is just facing the army of Masato Takatomo, there will definitely be no fear in the future, but Nakajo Keiji-sama, think about it, what does Masato Takayu represent, Musato Takayu represents the Kuroda family this time, he does not just represent the Muzato family under the command of the Kuroda family where he is located.

He represents the entire Kuroda family behind him, and the Kuroda family's ambition for the world, if this time the main family defeated the Kuroda family. Then it only represents the temporary independence of the family, but it is not beneficial to the family, because it will be followed by a larger-scale attack by the Kuroda family. And sir, please consider that in Shinano Province, to the south of us, Kuroda Vocational High School has entered with an army of 40,000. Saito Asanobu said.

"What about Kuroda Vocational High School?" Minister Seki apparently didn't think about Kuroda's vocational high school.

"Lord Segashi, if even Kuroda's high school is nothing, then what other heroes are there in the world? You must know that Kuroda-sama is the number one force in the world as a small wealthy family in Harima Province, and if it is really a waste of fame, it will definitely not be able to accomplish such a great cause. ”

"You are a strong word, you just know the power of the Kuroda family and the Kuroda vocational high school, but the power of the family, the people of your own family know. As long as the family can defeat the army of the Kuroda family, the Kuroda family is naturally nothing. Minister Se said very arrogantly.

"It's not right for Lord Senashi to say this, we have never doubted the martial prowess of the Honga samurai, and the samurai of the Honga family have never been afraid of anything, and my Uesugi family has always been invincible.

But the problem is that this time is different, and now the Kuroda family is extremely powerful, even if it is as strong as the own family, it will have to face the possible continuous attacks of the Kuroda family in the future, even if it wins a temporary victory, in general, this is an extremely unwise choice, and I hope that adults can understand. ”

Uesugi Keikatsu, who was sitting on the main seat, had been watching the quarrel between the people below, and as the most powerful samurai under him, he was also his friend Naoe Kanesui since childhood, and he never said a word until now. He was also following Uesugi Keikatsu, watching the stalemate between the crowd.

At this time, Uesugi Keikatsu suddenly coughed, and everyone immediately turned their eyes over, and then Uesugi Keikatsu said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, since you can't decide whether to fight with the Kuroda family now, you should continue to discuss, but now the situation is urgent, and you must take some countermeasures against the Kuroda family, I'm not good at this, so I'll leave it to Naoe-sama to tell you." ”

What does Uesugi Keikatsu mean, everyone looked at Naoe Kanesu, and the beautiful boy did not have any timidity in the face of these big guys, and said to these old ministers: "Everyone! At present, the army of the Kuroda family is on the verge of the border of the Echigo country, and the situation is indeed very critical, and the family cannot be allowed to have too many ideas. ”

In fact, the meaning of Uesugi Keikatsu just now is very obvious, that is, now he has some ideas, and these ideas need to be conveyed to them, and now through the mouth of Naoe Kanesuke, to convey his instructions.

Since even the lord Uesugi Keikatsu has said it, these old foxes are ready to let Naoe Kanesuke say Uesugi Keikatsu's thoughts first, and then see if it is in their own interests, and then decide their own way of doing things.

"The adults don't seem to have much thought about this opinion, so I'll boldly say what the lord means. The meaning of the lord is actually quite simple, first gather all the men and horses in the territory, and fight a large-scale war with the Kuroda family. ”
