Chapter XVII

Although Zhu ignored the people who did not reveal his identity to Liu Sheng, Ma Shou took the initiative to reveal his identity, but only said that he was a maritime merchant of the Ming Dynasty and wanted to cooperate with the Liu Sheng family.

But Gui Hai Baizhan had long known that Zhu Wuzhi would finally reach an agreement with Liu Sheng Dan Ma Shou, and when he knew that Liu Sheng but Ma Shou had not yet colluded with the iron gall god of the Ming Dynasty, he immediately reminded Liu Sheng but Ma Shou, saying that if someone from the Ming Dynasty came to cooperate with him, he must remember to inform him, because the person who came was likely to be someone from the iron courage god marquis.

After all, Dongying is the territory of the Dongying people, Yanagi Danma Shou was reminded of the return to the sea and a hundred battles, and at the same time that the people who Zhu ignored found him, he began his own investigation, and he already had the results in his heart plus many clues from the investigation, and Yanagi Danma Shou determined the identity of the person who came.

Of course, this is also because he already knew in advance that the person who came was likely to be related to the person Zhu ignored, and the so-called investigation was just to verify the identity of the other party.

Even the people who ignored Zhu didn't expect that he had already been seen through by others at the first time he came.

Yanagi Danma Mamori told the details of the contact with the Ming people about Guihai Baizhan, and finally asked, "Mr. Guihai, what should I do next!" ”

Guihai Baizhan smiled: "Since it is profitable, it is not impossible to cooperate with the enemy!" Don't let the other person know that you've seen through them. You can handle the proportions yourself! ”

"Hey!"

Yagyu Danma Mamoru's attitude towards the return to the sea is very interesting, like a friend and a superior.

However, the reverence for the return to the sea has always been the same.

After communicating with Guihai Baizhan, Yanagi Danma Mamoru, who had a bottom in his heart, also left.

Return to the sea and fight a hundred battles to hold the chess pieces again!

Zhu ignored it, this person is ruthless and has the essence of a hero. It's a good partner to work with! The only weakness is that he loves Su Xin too much, you say, should I help him solve this only weakness! ”

As soon as the word fell, Guihai Baizhan's eyes were facing the chessboard, but as long as he paid attention to it, he knew that there didn't seem to be a chessboard in front of him in his eyes, and what he saw might be something else.

Around him, there was also no one, no one knew who he was talking to, and the smile that slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth made people feel creepy.

After coming to Dongying for five years, he rarely goes out on the surface, but in fact, he still has a deeper understanding of the current Dongying.

This was thanks to the information of the Yanagi family, which opened everything up to him.

As for the Yanagi family around him, he knew even more that he chose the Yanagi family at the beginning, not only because of Yanagi Danma Shou, the top swordsman in Dongying, but also because he took a fancy to the Yanagi Xinyin faction.

In fact, during the previous war, the Yanagi family's position was very embarrassing.

The Yanagi family has its own territory, but it can be said to be one of the rarest lords in the whole Dongying territory.

The weakness of the basic plate can't support too many samurai and soldiers at all, which makes it difficult for the Yanagi family to rise, if it weren't for the fact that the head of the Yanagi family has been a top swordsman for generations, plus the official position of Tajima Mamoru, maybe it would have been swallowed up long ago.

But who can always be alone, especially in times of war.

In order to enhance the influence of the Yanagi family, but also to survive, Yanagi Danma Shou founded the Yanagi Xinyin Sect and recruited additional disciples.

Yagyu Tajima Mamoru is a top swordsman in Toei, and he is willing to recruit disciples, which makes many Toei nobles send some of their potential subordinates and unvalued concubines in their families.

I want to borrow the hand of Yagyu Tajima Mamoru to train qualified samurai.

The Yagyu New Yin Sect is the first step for Yagyu Danma Mamori to form a good relationship with various forces.

His move was very right, he taught his disciples wholeheartedly, and his bold style won the favor of many people, coupled with the containment of various forces, successfully made the Yanagi family barely maintain a bit of tranquility and independence in the war.

The disciples of the dojo also brought him considerable political capital, and even the annual tuition fees paid by the disciples also allowed him to have the capital to cultivate and strengthen the samurai who obeyed his orders.

Unfortunately, in times of war, all faithfulness and ethics are the least credible, and letting Yagyu Tajima Mamoru train qualified samurai for himself is a prejudice of the lords and daimyo of all parties, but they don't want to see the growth of the Yagyu family.

Therefore, Yagyu but Ma Mamoru is only walking on a tightrope, walking on thin ice.

He was willing to cooperate with Guihai Baizhan at the beginning, firstly, because of the strong strength of Guihai Baizhan, and secondly, he was attracted by the painting cake described by Guihai Baizhan.

In the past five years, under the plan of returning to the sea and fighting a hundred battles, the Yanagi family has not only survived, but also escaped from the constraints of various forces step by step, and has made great progress.

This made Yagyu Danma Mamoru more convinced of the Hundred Battles of Returning to the Sea.

In the previous years, Yagyu Tajimamori's reputation also reached the ears of the shogun, and he immediately sent people to woo him.

At the suggestion of returning to the sea and fighting a hundred battles, Yagyu Tajima Mamoru accepted the goodwill of the shogunate and began to train qualified samurai for the shogunate.

In Dongying, a real samurai not only needs martial arts, but also understands strategy, and is a qualified samurai, but those who can lead troops to fight, and the starting point is generally a centurion.

Don't underestimate the position of centurion, in Dongying, those who can lead 100 people can be said to be the grassroots backbone of one party's forces, and there is a great chance of developing into the high-level core of one party's forces in the future.

Samurai or quasi-samurai are generally nobles or have the blood of nobles in their blood.

The nobility of Toei would not allow commoners to become samurai, which is also the reason why later generations of Toei people admired Toyotomi Hideyoshi and had a high opinion of Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

Because Toyotomi Hideyoshi can be said to be the only one who was born in poverty and almost unified Toei, and also made the family he founded a new Toei aristocracy.

The monopoly of the upper class on knowledge has reached an extremely terrifying level in Dongying.

Even the Yanagi family can't help but despise the common people.

But since the Hundred Battles of the Return to the Sea came, this has made some changes in the Yanagi family, although it still has a serious control over important knowledge, but it is still open to the common people.

And this is also the biggest reason for the rapid expansion of the strength of the Yanagi family, of course, these forces are carefully hidden in the dark by Yanagi Danma Shou.

If the nobles of Toei knew that he had opened up his knowledge channels to the common people of Toei, he would definitely join forces to destroy the Yagyu family first, even the shogunate would not tolerate Yagyu Danma Mamoru's behavior.

While secretly absorbing the malleable talents of the poor people for their own use, while using the reputation of the shogunate to protect and develop themselves, this is the path that Guikai Hyakusei laid for the Yagyu family.
