Yamashiro, Yoshida County, after reading the letter written by Kobayakawa Takakei, Mori Moto did not immediately tell Mori Terugen what to do, but looked at Mori Terugen with a smile and asked calmly, "Terumoto, come, tell me what you think~"

"Huh? Be! Mori Terumoto was stunned when he heard this, but immediately said respectfully, "Grandson thinks so, Iyo Province must not lose, otherwise, the whole of Kyushu and China will be exposed to the Oda family's navy." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIn this way, the family must spend a lot of troops to defend various important castles. ”

After a pause, Mori Terumoto said again, "In the past, when the Otomo family was attacked, the Otomo family allowed Ouchi Teruhiro to take the opportunity to march to the defense minister and take advantage of the chaos to capture Yamaguchi Castle. If it weren't for my grandfather himself, I'm afraid my family would have had to withdraw their troops from Kyushu because of this. ”

According to the information, the people who took Sanuki and other countries were all under the command of Oda Yoshinobu, and it is said that the remnants of the Niko family, Niko Katsuhisa and Yamanaka Yukimori, have already surrendered to Oda Yoshinobu. If it bypasses the perimeter and enters Izumo by sea, I am afraid that many former ministers of Niko will respond. Mori Terumoto kept talking. Some of these words were obtained in consultation with his ministers, and some of them were pondered by himself.

"As for what Uncle Kobayakawa said, using this incident to spread rumors about the Oda family, although my grandson thinks that I can give it a try, I am not optimistic about what effect it can have." Mori Terumoto said respectfully.

Nodding, Mao Li Yuan said approvingly, "Well, the analysis is good, it is indeed grown up~" Mao Li Yuan said, patted Mao Li Huiyuan's shoulder and smiled, "So, what do you think the family should do?" ”

"This ......" Hearing this, Mori Terumoto hesitated for a moment, but seeing Mori Moto's encouraging eyes, he finally mustered up the courage to say, "Sun Er feels that the troops on the front line cannot be moved, so the troops in the territory can only be mobilized again, at least more than 10,000 people must be gathered, and with the help of Murakami's naval army, I believe that it is still possible to hold Iyo Province." ”

"What about the generals?" Mao Liyuan asked noncommittally.

"Grandson thinks that the fourth uncle can take on this role!" Mori Terumoto said in a deep voice, "Although the fourth uncle is only two years older than his grandson, he is already a general who has been fighting for many years, supplemented by the three generals of Kodama Shokasa, Shishido Takaya, and Yoshihiro Zhenxin, and with the troops of Murakami Takeyoshi and Kono family, I believe that there should not be much problem in defending Iyo Province and guarding against the so-called navy of the Oda family." After speaking, Maori Huiyuan looked at Maori Yuan with some nervousness, as if he had just finished the exam and was waiting for the teacher's correction.

Speaking of which, from before to now, he has never taken the initiative to express any opinions on some major matters in front of Maori Yuan, basically Maori Yuan just said, and Maori Huiyuan listened. Even if Mori Mototo's absence was there, he would choose to listen to the opinions of Motoharu Yoshikawa and Takakei Kobayakawa.

But now, Kobayakawa Takakei only briefly reported the situation in his letter, and Yoshikawa Motoharu didn't even know about it at all, and Mori Mototo took the initiative to ask again, which was the first time he expressed his thoughts.

"Yuan Qing~ He's a good candidate." Mao Liyuan nodded when he heard this.

The Motoqing in the mouth of the two is not only the fourth son of the Mori Moto, but he was born to the side room of the Mori Moto, because he is similar in age to the Mori Terugen, but compared to Yoshikawa Motoharu and Kobayakawa Takakei, the Mori Terugen is more relied on.

Of course, more importantly, although Maori Yuanqing is not as outstanding as his two brothers in a certain aspect of civil and military affairs, his cultural and martial arts are the best choice. For him, Maori Yuan also attaches great importance to it.

Seeing Mori Moto, he nodded, and Mori Terumoto seemed to be greatly encouraged, and hurriedly continued, "Grandfather, in addition to this, my grandson thinks that we should continue to exert the power of His Royal Highness the Shogun and win over Ryuzoji, Aso, Sagara, Ito, and even the Shimazu family in Kyushu to join this war, as long as it is ......"

Before Maori Huiyuan's words were finished, Maori Yuan interrupted him with a chuckle, "Hehe, Huiyuan, it seems that you have really grown up~" Lovingly stroked Maori Huiyuan's head, Maori Yuan smiled, "Go ahead, do what you think, I believe that you will be an excellent family governor." ”

"Yes!" When Maori Huiyuan heard this, he immediately responded excitedly, and to be able to get the recognition of his grandfather Maori Yuan, for Maori Huiyuan, it was more important than anything else.

"I know you're under a lot of pressure, after all, the expectations of your retainers are too high and too high, but sometimes, you don't need to care too much about what others think. Remember, you are the governor of the Maori family! Mao Li Yuan patted Mao Li Huiyuan's head and smiled, and then turned around and walked into the hut.

"Grandson...... Got it......" Mori Terumoto whispered a little choked.

Yes, he was under too much pressure, and since the death of his father, Mori Takamoto, Mori Terumoto has inherited the family governorship. Since then, too many expectations have been placed on this 11-year-old child.

Indeed, the life of the Mori family is legendary, and even in the minds of many Maori retainers, it is a myth. And what about Maori Takato? Although he only stayed in the position of governor of the family for a short period of 18 years, and the Maori Yuan behind him still controlled many major events of the Maori family. But in such a short period of 18 years, Maori Takayuan has been recognized by the Maori family, he is both civil and military, polite, gentle and modest, and has a very attractive personality. Under his rule, the Maori family became unparalleled.

Therefore, for Maori Terumen, the Maori family is full of infinite expectations, they hope that Maori Terugen can lead them to continue to fight in this troubled era like Maori Motogen and Maori Takamoto, and the two uncles Yoshikawa Motoharu and Kobayakawa Takakei are unusually strict with Maori Terumen, and they require him to be perfect in everything. They were understandable for their expectations, but they didn't think about whether an 11-year-old could afford them.

History tells us that the heirs of the family are basically getting worse and worse, and the reason why this is so is because they were full of expectations when they were children. After all, not everyone has that terrifying talent.

Fortunately, Mori Huiyuan was not crushed by this pressure, and he was still in everyone's expectations, constantly looking at Mori Yuan and Mori Longyuan's back. Although the distance was still great, he never gave up.

All of this was seen by Mao Liyuan, although he was distressed, but he still let it go. Because he understands that in this troubled world, a mediocre family governor is absolutely devastating for a family. Because of the troubled times of the Warring States, it is either to advance or to perish, and there will never be a second option.

Shortly after Mori Terumoto left, Mori Mototo's voice resounded in the room, "Lady Sugi...... Myojiu, did you see that? Huiyuan, this kid has finally become reliable......"

Returning to the castle tower, Mori Terumoto immediately went to visit Ashikaga Yoshiaki, hoping that he would help the Mori family persuade many daimyo in Kyushu. In this regard, Ashikaga Yoshiaki only hesitated a little and agreed. After all, the war had begun at this time, and only if the Mori family won could the Ashikaga shogunate continue to exist, it can be said that Ashikaga Yoshiaki was completely tied to the Mori family at this time.

Subsequently, Mori Terumoto and Ashikaga Yoshiaki convened the important ministers to hold an evaluation.

"That's the way it is, His Royal Highness the General has already promised to help the family persuade the many forces in Kyushu." Maori Teruyuan looked at everyone and said in a deep voice.

"The lord is wise!" Everyone said in unison, looking at Maori Huiyuan's eyes, full of appreciation and relief. It can be seen that they are extremely satisfied that Maori Huiyuan can come up with this solution.

"Then, Master Anguo Temple, I will bother you to accompany His Royal Highness the General on a hard trip." Maori Huiyuan turned his head to look at Anguo Temple Huiqiong and said.

"It's a subordinate business." Anguosi Huiqiong chuckled.

Speaking of which, Ankokuji Huiqiong's status in the Maori family is very special, he is a monk, not a retainer of the Maori family, but for the Maori Yuan, he is a retainer. As for Mori Terumoto, he has always been with him as a monk. Today, it is the first time that he has performed a retainer salute to Mori Terumoto, or does this mean that the most special and at the same time the most transcendent retainer of the Maori family has recognized the status of Maori Terumoto?

Well, a governor who needs the approval of his retainers...... I have to say that Maori Huiyuan has Maori Yuan and Maori Longyuan are here, which is really his misfortune and his luck.

"Uncle Yuanqing, Iyokoku will entrust you." Maori Huiyuan turned his head to look at Maori Yuanqing and said with a serious expression.

"Please rest assured! Even if his subordinates die in battle! I will never let the Oda family take Iyo Province! Maori Yuanqing assured loudly.

"Please rest assured, my subordinates will do their best to assist Maori-sama and defend Iyo Province!" Kodama Shokata, Shishido Takaya, and Yoshihiro Zhenshin shouted in unison.

Later, after discussing the details with everyone, the assessment was disbanded.

Belch...... Well, Mori Terumoto didn't tell everyone about the relationship between Oda Yoshinobu and Oda Nobunaga, and he didn't think it was necessary to tell them. Because he thinks that the less people know about it, the better. Although the Mori family and the Oda family were mortal enemies at this time, Mori Terumoto faintly felt that the Oda family should not be offended too much. And the relationship between Nobunaga and Yoshinobu is, in his opinion, definitely causing big trouble for the Maori family.

Well? In that case, then why didn't Maori Terumen stop it? Hawkers, because Mori Terumoto thinks that Kobayakawa Takakei will do a good job and will definitely not expose the Mori family.
