Kagoshima, the northern island of the Japanese country.

The mansion of the Oe.

"Yaga! It must have been the group of bastards from the Ueda family who pretended to be someone else and kidnapped the daimyo, and we must gather all our forces to attack the Ueda family and rescue the daimyo! ”

"The old family, but at that time, many people saw with their own eyes that the captives of the daimyo came from the sea!"

"What's so difficult about this, the Ueda family must have used a boat to pretend to be casually, and now the daimyo may be in their hands.

Young Lord! Please give the order to gather all the forces of the family and start a war against the Ueda family at once! ”

"Elder family, do you understand what it means to start a war?

This means that we have to keep up with the Ueda family desperately, and now that the daimyo is missing, our Oe family is already in turmoil, just like a wooden boat in the sea that may capsize at any time, how can we be rash? ”

"As for the fact that the daimyo was taken away by the Ueda family, it is absolutely impossible, because even their Ueda family's daimyo has been taken away by one pass, and the situation of the Ueda family is similar to ours, so it is absolutely impossible for them!"

"Baga Ya Road! How can you be sure?

What if this is just a ruse by them to confuse us? ”

"This can't be a ruse!"

At the family meeting of the Oe family, the Oe family and the retainers of the family, who held two opinions, had a fierce quarrel over the whereabouts of the daimyo.

The younger generation of retainers believed that the daimyo had really been taken captive by outside forces, and that the Oe's family was now on the verge of danger and must be cautious.

However, the elders of the older generation think that this must be the ghost of the Ueda family, who have been opponents of them for generations, and that only by defeating the Ueda family can the daimyo be rescued.

The two sides quarreled so much that no one could convince anyone.

Oe Yuki's only son-in-law, Oe Sheng quietly knelt in his own position, silently watching the family divided into two factions and arguing, and never spoke.

When both sides were almost about to move, then they suddenly said, "Enough!" Be quiet, all of you! ”

As soon as the young master spoke, the two factions who were arguing just now instantly quieted down.

Qi Qi looked at the young master of the most advanced family at this time.

Da Jiang Sheng took a deep breath, and then said to everyone:

"It is important who captured my father, but please don't ignore the situation that my Dajiang family is facing now.

The disappearance of my father made the entire Oe family lose its backbone, and in that battle, my father brought half of the samurai of our Oe family over.

Now, instead of victory, even my father, the samurai are dead and wounded.

The outside countries are already eyeing Kagoshima, and the most important thing for you to do now is to think about how to get the Oe's family out of this predicament and successfully keep the current family territory! ”

"Hey!"

After everyone heard this, they all bowed their heads in shame.

As the heir of the Daimyo, while they were still arguing about the whereabouts of the Daimyo, he was already keenly aware of the crisis encountered by the Daie family and had clearly distinguished the priorities.

Seeing everyone's appearance, Oe Sheng sighed, and then waved his hand and ordered, "Sachiko, tell everyone the information you received." ”

"Hey! Head of the house! ”

Standing behind Da Jiang Sheng, a maid wearing a kimono, with a good appearance, and the unfathomable valley in front of him, immediately stepped forward and began to tell the information.

Three days ago, I received news that in addition to our Kagoshima, the rest of the Miyazaki Domain, the Oita Domain, Kuma Domain, and the Daimyo of the Fukuoka Domain on the Six Nations Island have begun to recruit soldiers on a large scale, and at the same time, weapons have begun to be forged in the territory.

According to the family's intelligence channels, there is only one reason for their unusual behavior, and that is that they have their eyes on Kagoshima and decide to carve up Kagoshima while Kagoshima has lost its name.

According to the information received so far, by the time these daimyo attack, it is feared that the entire Kagoshima will be attacked by an army of nearly 10,000 people.

With the strength of our Kagoshima, we can't stop it at all!

There is a great chance that they will be swallowed up!

Now, the family has reached the point of life and death!

"Wow!"

As soon as this information came out, it immediately frightened everyone in the Dajiang family, an army of 10,000 people!

How many people are there in Kagoshima?

The total number of people on the entire island will not exceed three thousand!

The rest of the small villages don't need to be counted at all, and they don't add up to more than 4,000 people.

In the face of the invasion of external countries, they simply could not resist it.

Everyone panicked!

But Da Jiangsheng's face was still calm.

Looking at the flustered retainers and clansmen, they coughed lightly, and everyone immediately looked at them.

Only then did Da Jiang Sheng say: "You all know the current situation, in the face of the invasion of external countries, with the strength of our Dajiang family, we can't resist it at all.

But if we want to raise our hands and give up resistance, it will never work to give up the territory of the Oega family! ”

"That's right! Absolutely not allowed out! ”

"It's a big deal to fight with them! If you want the land of our Dae family, let them step on our corpses to get it! ”

The people of the clan shouted excitedly.

After Dae raised his pressure and quieted everyone down, Shui continued: "For the invasion of the local foreign countries, I contacted the young lord of the Ueda family, Ueda Ping, and the two of us made an agreement to join forces, and decided to resist the invasion of the outside countries together and keep our existing territory. ”

"What?!"

Da Jiang Sheng's words seemed to be like a thunderbolt from the sky, and many of the Da Jiang family's clansmen and retainers present were stunned!

Joining forces with the Ueda family?

How is this possible?

The two families had never joined forces since they settled in Kagoshima, and now they were asked to join forces, and they couldn't accept the news.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Da Jiangsheng did not show an expression of surprise, which was reasonable, and he had already prepared for their reaction.

continued: "In the face of the survival of the family and the grievances of the generations, I chose the family.

I hope you can recognize it! ”

He was silent for a long time.

Yes, the situation now is that the family is about to disappear.

The grievances of several generations are nothing, and in the face of the continued prosperity of the family, everything is not worth mentioning.

In the face of the tens of thousands of people who may come, if they do not join forces with the Ueda family, their strength alone will not be the opponent of the rest of the countries.

They stopped exclaiming, stopped talking, and acquiesced in the matter.

Da Jiang Sheng looked at the current situation with satisfaction, and was about to tell everyone about the things that the family was going to prepare, when someone suddenly came to report, saying that someone from outside the family came with a letter from the name and asked to see the young master!

Everyone was taken aback, the letter of the Daimyo?

Wasn't the daimyo taken captive?

Could it be a kidnapper's ransom letter?

Everyone didn't dare to slack off, and walked quickly to the door under the leadership of Da Jiangsheng.

At this time, outside the mansion of the Oe family, a middle-aged man wearing a black robe and embroidered with a golden moire pattern on his chest was quietly appearing in front of the Oe family's mansion with his hands behind his back.

Because of his height of more than 1.7 meters, he looks unusually unusually unobtrusive and obvious among the dwarf radishes around him.

After waiting for just a quarter of an hour, Da Jiangsheng finally came to this middle-aged man.

"Who are you? Why is there a letter from my father? ”

Da Jiangsheng said, holding up the letter in his hand that the subordinate had given him just now, the note was indeed written by his father!

But why was it sent by this person who was obviously not a Japanese national?
