Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 265 Heart Has Thousands of Knots

In Vietnam, Shentongchuan is divided as the boundary river between Xinchuan County and Wudu County.

Now crossing Shentongchuan, the land under Li Xiao's feet belongs to the boundary of Xinchuan County, Yuezhong.

In Shincheon County, there is a river that rushes into the sea named Changyuan Temple River. It was named Shincheon in ancient times. This is the origin of the name of Shincheon County.

At present, Shincheon County is roughly controlled by Shiina family, but not all control is completed. Many powerful clans under their command have the right to be independent, and even those who tend to the Jinbao family and those who tend to have a clan.

As the land that Shioya Qiuzada wanted Li Xiao to seize, the area leaning on the east bank of the Jinzu River to the Kumano River, another tributary of the Jinzu River, is small, but compared to the barren Hida, the local agricultural output can still be Yes, the stone height of the land under its jurisdiction is about six thousand stones.

The famous masters of these six thousand stone villages are now waiting for Li Xiao on the shore.

The two sides met in the Gassho-House, a special local farm building not far from the Jintong River Ferry.

During the talks, the wishes of these celebrities are also very simple. They hope to get some preferential treatment through this active investment.

For example, the reduction and exemption on the annual tribute reduced the original ratio of three citizens and two citizens to fifty-five, or even the ratio of two citizens and three citizens.

Some hope to obtain military service, general service reduction or exemption.

There are also relatively independent privileges such as the inability to enter the name and the inaccessibility of the inspection.

Faced with all kinds of requests from these celebrities, Li Xiao ignored them, and instead handed them to Yanya Qiuzhen for handling.

After a day of talks between the two sides, after Shioya Akuzada's efforts to persuade the negotiation, the two sides reached a general agreement.

Afterwards, these nominees will temporarily return to the village. They will summon the people in the village to meet again, and after reaching an agreement, they will decide whether to formally join the Takeda family.

But generally speaking, it is not difficult for Li Xiao and Shioya Qiuzhen to win these six thousand stone territories. The real difficulty is how to hold the stronghold on the side of the Shentong River.

While waiting for answers from the celebrities, Li Xiao and Shioya Qiuzhen first visited the local territory and discussed the location of the fortification.

The last two chose the fortification point on Mount Sarukura.

The elevation of Mount Sarukura is 342 meters, and it is close to Jinzu River, where the water of Jinzu River is slightly slower, and Jinzu River is used for several months each year.

Building a city here can not only control this territory, but also take into account the water transportation of the Shentong River.

And this city to be built is named after Sarukura Mountain as Sarukura Castle.

The historical Sarukura Castle was built by Shioya Qiuzhen during the Yonglu period.

The specific historical data is unknown. It is said that Kenshin Uesugi ordered Shioya Akisada to build a castle here in order to prevent Takeda Shi from entering Etchū, as a base for the Etchō tyrants to fight against the Takeda army.

This city fell in the second year of the change of Honnoji Temple. At that time, Shioya Akuzada had rebelled against the Uesugi family and was under the command of Masaru Sasa.

Shioya Qiuzhen also died in this battle.

Li Xiao and Qiuzhen Shioya are discussing in the wooden house of Jishijia at the foot of Mount Sarukura.

But Shioka Yiyu and other female clothing members stayed outside the house to guard.

This local servant's home is very wealthy. There are paper sliding doors made of paper barriers in the rooms as partitions, instead of ordinary masters' homes, and generally only opaque wooden doors are used as partitions.

The room is covered with wooden boards, and there are several stacked seats for people to rest.

Generally speaking, the most important thing in a Japanese-style room is the location of the firepit, which is a place where families often gather.

Right now, Li Xiao and Yanwu Qiuzhen were talking around the firepit.

As the homeowner, the ground attendant can only kneel down far away from the firepit, while the family of the ground attendant is not qualified to enter the house and is arranged to live in other houses in the village.

As for Xiaoken Obata, Yusada Obata, Katsuki Usami and others were also in the house, enjoying dinner together around the firepit.

Li Xiao and Shioya Qiuzhen ate while discussing the offensive and defensive strategy of their home in Vietnam.

Yanya Qiuzhen worked hard to make Li Xiao fully support him and become the lord of Sarukura Castle.

Yanya Qiuzhen suggested to Li Xiao that after the construction of Sarukura Castle, it could co-exist as two supporting points for Li Xiao's family to stand side by side with Chengsheng City in Yuezhong, and act as horns for each other.

At the same time, Yanwu Qiuzhen also suggested to repair a walled city called Yanmuzhai along the Shentong River.

Yanmuzhai and Chengshengcheng are separated across the bank of Shentong River. Yanya Qiuzhen wants to restore Yanmuzhai to serve as a connection between Sarucang Castle and Chengshengcheng.

In this way, a triangular solid support point can be formed between the three cities, which serves as the foundation for Li Xiao to stand in Yuezhong.

Shioya Qiuzhen eloquently told Li Xiao one by one, and her small glasses flashed with excitement.

Li Xiao knew that although he looked like he had carefully planned for himself, he was more for his position as the lord of the city.

For this little ambition, I can tolerate it, and Shioya Qiuzhen's opinions are quite insightful.

Seeing Shioya Qiuzhen's anxious mood, even the food on the plate in front of him did not move.

A smile appeared on Li Xiao's face, thinking that this person is really anxious.

Li Xiao stretched his chopsticks to the dark red lacquered dinner plate, sandwiched a piece of dried sardines, put it in his mouth and chewed slowly while thinking about what Shioya Qiuzhen had just said.

After thinking for a while, Li Xiao said: "Building Ape Cangcheng and repairing Yanmu Village require a lot of manpower and funds. Are you sure of this?"

Seeing Li Xiao’s intention to move, Yanya Qiuzhen immediately sparkled his small eyes behind the spectacles. He said loudly: "Master, after the ministers can build the Ape Cangcheng, it is expected to be built in half a year, and then use manpower. Repair Yanmuzhai again."

"As for the funds, my salt house will raise it on its own, and the manpower will also ask the lord, and it is allowed to ask the nearby people for military service."

Li Xiao nodded, and said: "This is fine, but the defensive force?"

Shioya Qiuzada also strongly said: "This is raised by the ministers and recruited from the ronin. There are also bodyguards in the business to join. The horseback warrior in the city will not be less than 50 people."

There are already a considerable proportion of fifty people. Li Xiao nodded and said: "Very well, then you can do it. After the repairs of Ape Cangcheng are completed, I will let you be the lord of this city, and the territory of this place. After Shigao's re-assessment, I will give you 60% as Zhixing."

Yanwu Qiuzhen couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard what Li Xiao said. After the knowledge and action survey here is at least 6,000 shi, if it is 60%, it means that his knowledge and action land is above 3,600 shi, only a lot more.

Yanwu Qiuzhen immediately rejoiced and said: "Thank the Lord for the reward, the ministers can only swear to death and repay."

Li Xiao laughed and said: "Qiu Zhen, you are the first retainer in your family to gain knowledge and action. Work hard and don't disappoint me. If you are loyal to your family in the future, the knowledge and action you have gained will be It's much more than now."

What Li Xiao thought at the moment was that the fifty-man samurai of Shioya Qiuzhen was always light enough.

These people and horses are already enough to defend Yuan Cang City for themselves, and Yuan Cang City will exist as the east barrier of the city.

After listening to Shioya Qiuzhen, she was always in extreme excitement.

Because of Li Xiao's promise, Shioya Qiuzhen immediately picked up the brown rice in the black bowl in front of him, and ate it sloppily. I don't know if it was so appetite.

Li Xiao only smiled when he saw Yanwu Qiuzhen like this, and then used the big chopsticks next to the firepit to turn over the charcoal fire in the firepit.

Looking at the flickering charcoal fire, Li Xiao thought to himself that his knowledge and deeds now have 26,000 stones.

This time he was able to obtain a territory of six thousand stones without a single soldier, and only moved his tongue to obtain a territory of six thousand stones. This trip was too easy for Li Xiao.

Compared with the death battle, the risk of taking the five thousand stone Zhixing from Jiangma's house, the difficulty and the easy are not the same.

This is probably the effect of momentum.

Li Xiao thought of it this way. His current reputation and prestige in Yuezhong and the combat power of his two reserve teams are obvious to all. Only in this way can the wealthy family near the Ape Cang Mountain sincerely take refuge.

When Shioya Qiuzhen was a salt house merchant, her status was on the same level as her own.

At the moment, he became his own subject and worshipped in front of him. The changes before and after this situation are quite sighing.

Li Xiao turned his head and saw the owner of the house sitting far away, serving locally, but he showed a look of awe even more when he saw himself.

When he saw his eyes swept, he hurriedly bowed his head and bowed down.

Li Xiao smiled. The land attendant's real estate property was not more than a hundred stones. After hearing his own words, he decided the belongings of these villages and gave people more than 3,000 stones of knowledge and deeds. At the moment he sees how he feels.

After night fell, Li Xiaozheng took the topographical map of Sarucang Mountain that was presented to him just now, and sat on the edge of the firepit and watched it carefully.

Li Xiao looked at each other and wondered whether it was appropriate to assign those lands to Yanya Qiuzhen as his knowledge and deeds.

Just as Li Xiao was watching Time Ranwen Novel Network with full attention, he suddenly felt that the light beside him was bright, and the light in the room was much brighter.

Li Xiao turned his head to look, only to see Xiaoban Yuzhen wearing a light shirt, standing behind him with a smile, holding a lamp for him.

I don’t know why Xiao Han Yuzhen is very beautiful tonight. Taobao Women's Tmall Taobao Mall Taobao Women's Winter Jacket~www.wuxiamtl.com~ It gives Li Xiao a refreshing feeling. Besides, looking at beautiful women under the lights, there is also a kind of ancient scholars. When reading, the red sleeves add fragrance.

Oba Yuzheng Haobai gently placed the oil lamp next to Li Xiao on his wrist, and said, "You watched it in the middle of the night."

Li Xiao nodded, and Obata Yusada sat in front of him.

The two were close to each other, and Li Xiao smelled the indifferent fragrance of Xiaoban Yuzhen's body, and the whole person felt a little calm.

Li Xiao suppressed his thoughts and said to Yuzhen Xiaoba, "I have never seen you wear this Wu suit before."

Yusada Obata nodded, and ignored Li Xiao's question. Instead, he smiled and asked, "Does Wu Fu look good for me?"

Li Xiao nodded slowly and answered in the affirmative.

After that, Li Xiao held up the map again and looked at it carefully under the oil lamp.

But Yuzhen Obata looked at Li Xiao at this moment, her lips closed tightly, but the countless words in her heart were stuck in her throat, and she didn't know what to say at this moment. . ..
