Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 271 Return to Cloud Jinshan

Yonglu eight years, late April.

Shengang City.

After reaching an agreement with the sister Xiaolu's family, Li Xiao led the army to triumphantly return from the front line of Naoshan City to Shengang City.

Li Xiao's expedition this time was because he was famous for his division. Without losing a single soldier, he overwhelmed Sister Xiaolu, the two powerful families in the Hida family on the inner island.

Among them, the sister Xiaolu family is still recognized by the court of Hida Country, and the official family is the Habayashi family, which is more noble than the guardian daimyo of Hida Country.

But this time, he was challenged by Takeda's retainer, Li Xiao, and finally had to succumb, and his face was discouraged for a while.

The loss in the reputation of the sister Xiaolu family is still secondary, but it is more important than the loss in strength.

The loss of Naoshan Castle, which Sister Xiaolu Ryorai took great pains, would rather be insulted and seized. Not only does it mean that the territory is reduced, but the location of Naoshan Castle, together with Gaotang Castle, is like two nails to the sister Xiaolu’s home. In front of the door.

In this way, Guoshan Castle not only controlled the passage from Sister Xiaolu's house to Shengang City for Li Xiao, but also completely disgusted Sister Xiaolu Lianglai.

After more than a year of planning and construction, the castle town of Kamioka Castle has become quite large. Because of the monopoly of salt and grain issued by Li Xiao, many businesses have moved here, and various derivative industries have also joined.

At present, Kamioka Town has a population of nearly 3,000 people, and gradually replaced the original Sakuradong Castle Town, becoming the center of the entire Hida country.

Li Xiao's army lined up in a tight marching queue, slowly advancing from outside the town, the sound of sandals wiping the ground, and the three long spears erected high like a forest, showing their mighty momentum.

When Li Xiao's army entered the castle town of Kamioka Castle, they were surrounded by the cheers of the people on both sides. Many of them were local Hida people, and more were family members of Kamiokabei.

When they saw their loved ones return safely, they all burst into tears and waved vigorously.

However, because of the strict military orders, even if they heard someone calling their name, they dare not leave halfway, or even look around.

Sitting on the horse, Li Xiao nodded slightly when he saw this scene, thinking: Dao Shengmeng is indeed a general, and Shengang has such a disciplined army, which can be used in the future. This is my team for Li Xiao to fight the world. I don't know if the people will be welcomed by the people in the road when they lead this army to Los Angeles under the banner of the Takeda family in the future. But no matter what, the people here support me, Li Xiao.

Li Xiao sat on top of the black forge, thinking so ambitiously.

After entering the city, Li Xiao ordered the army to be disbanded on the spot, and all the members of Kamokabei cheered for joy.

Li Xiao re-entered the castle tower of Kamokabei, and he summoned the Great Zang Chang'an for discussion.

Dazang Changan is currently Li Xiao’s Kamioka Town, and Kamioka Ginyama pursues it, and has mastered most of Li Xiao’s financial power. He is now second only to Shimao Seongmeng among Li Xiao’s vassals.

In addition to the Tibetan Chang'an in the Tianshou Pavilion, beside him was a young man in his early twenties sitting on his knees.

The Tibetan Changan glanced at this person, and obviously did not understand his identity, but the Tibetan Changan was not without doubts.

Li Xiao pointed to the person sitting at the head of the Tibetan Changan, and said: "Changan, this person is my new retainer. It is Masuda Chomori from Nakajima County, Owari."

After listening to Li Xiaozhi's words, the young man bowed down to the Tibetan Chang'an and said, "Meet Master Tibetan."

Dazang Chang'an nodded restrainedly in return.

Li Xiao looked at Masuda Nagasaki in his eyes, and said in his heart that he did not expect that Yokotani Yukoshige moved so fast, and he found the person he appointed in an instant.

Li Xiao was still very pleased and surprised to get the investment effect of this famous internal affairs minister Masuda Changsheng.

Masuda Chomori was the third seat in the Toyotomi Gosho in the history. He was awarded the 220,000 shi in Yamatokuni-gun Yamashiro. He was mainly responsible for his civil engineering. In Taiko, he assisted Ishida Mitsunari in the Mino and Echigo seizures.

And nowadays Masuda Changsheng is still not well-known, no one knows. Judging from his native origin, it is speculated that his father was just a local waiter. He was of ordinary origin, not to mention his family style. In history, it has been until the first year of Tianzheng. (1573), just now became a samurai of Sanbaishi in Oda's house.

And when Yokotani found Nagamori Masuda, he was plowing the field in Owari Kuni’s own Masuda Village. When it was heard that someone wanted to recruit him as a samurai, and when he was still famous in the Takeda clan, he immediately let go of his **** and agreed. NS.

So it was to serve as Li Xiao's subordinate and serve as a retainer.

Li Xiao first said to the Tibetan Chang'an: "This time you are called to clarify the current finances of your family. You can tell me in detail, as well as this Lord Masuda."

The Tibetan Changan uttered a loud voice, and after that, he gave an overview of the current finances in Li Xiao's territory.

The first is the annual tribute to the territory.

At present, Li Xiao’s territories directly under the direct control of nearly 23,000 stones, and three Yuli vassals under his command, Yanwu Qiuzhen, the lord of Ape Cangcheng, four thousand stones, the lord of Gaotang City, Hirose Zongcheng 1,800 stones, and the new ownership of Li Xiao Naoshan Liangxing, the master of Naoshan Castle on one side, has 1,500 stones.

Next there is the income of the castle town of Kamoka Castle, a large part of which is obtained from the two circulation transactions of self-salt and grain.

Then the Tibetan Changan explained the fiscal revenue and expenditure last year with Li Xiao in detail.

Afterwards, Changan Dazang said: "After expanding the flags, the family's finances have reached the limit, and there is no spare finances to maintain."

Li Xiaoyan said: "I understand that this incident was already in my expectation."

Dazang Changan said: "Please forgive me for your bluntness. The ministers have been opposed to the Lord’s expansion of Kamokabei. At present, there is no surplus finance, which means that we do not have any financial resources to deal with unnecessary changes. The ministers have also conceived several stimulus for the commercial development of the castle towns. The measures of this year did not receive financial support, but they had to be postponed for the time being."

Li Xiaoyan said: "I understand your difficulties. In fact, I still want you to spend more money. This time the Naoshan family belongs to the family, and its strategic location is very important to Shengang City. We are in Hida. Monitor the bridgehead of the sister Xiaolu family. I also plan to invest a sum of money to build the Naoshan Castle for the Guoshan family as a frontier against the sister Xiaolu family."

Hearing Li Xiaozhi’s words, the Tibetan Changan’s face changed drastically, and he said like a miser: “It’s impossible to tell the lord. To tell the truth, my family’s finances have reached a very critical situation, and I can’t even get the rations needed for the next battle. But this time the matter of building Guoshan City, the subordinates are really powerless."

Li Xiao nodded and said: "I have understood this matter, and wrote a letter to Lord Gokan, and His Royal Highness Shenglai asked for instructions. Lord Gokan has responded to me the day before and will fund my 500 Guanjun funds."

"Five hundred kan?" Dazang Chang'an said with a sigh of relief, "It's only enough for a while, but fundamentally speaking, it's not enough."

Li Xiao smiled and said: "I haven't finished yet. In addition to Lord Gokan, His Royal Highness Katsurai also sponsored me two thousand Kan. In addition, Lord Sanada Kazunari also heard of my predicament, and also sent 500 Kan. That's three thousand pens in total."

Having said this, Li Xiao couldn't help but sigh. At the beginning, he wrote to Takeda Shingen, Takeda Katsuyoshi will take Hida, and the situation that Yuezhong may be attacked by various parties shows that the purpose is to ask for money, soldiers and food.

Compared with Takeda Shingen’s stingy, he only gave a mere five hundred kan, Takeda Katsuyoshi really didn’t say anything to himself, he set aside two thousand kan in one breath, and Sanada Katsuyoshi probably heard Takeda Katsuyoshi talked about his difficulties. I don't know what the purpose is, but I actually lent myself five hundred guan.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of Takeda Katsuyori. The marriage between Takeda Katsuyori and Toyama's family was about to be married, and he still took so much money from him, so Li Xiao was a little ashamed. .

However, the response of the Tibetan Changan was overjoyed, because the entry of the money did make Li Xiao's finances strained and temporarily delayed.

The Tibetan Changan made a quick calculation and reported to Li Xiaozhen: "Master, with these three thousand pennies, if you use it carefully, you can maintain it at least until next year."

Li Xiao listened to the report from Dazang Chang'an and nodded and said, "That's it."

After speaking, Li Xiao looked at Masuda Changsheng and said: "Zengtian, this time the addition of Nabeshan Castle, you will be the fortification of the city, and you will be responsible for this matter. Is there a problem?".

Masuda Nagasaki was taken aback, and he hurriedly bowed to his words and said: "The minister was granted such a heavy responsibility by the lord when he first came to this house. The minister felt the burden of responsibility, but if the lord gave it to him, he would surely finish it to the death."

After listening to Masuda's words, Li Xiao smiled and said: "It's just building the city. I can't mention anything that is done to the death. If the building is handled properly, I will give another reward."

Li Xiao glanced at Masuda Changsheng, this person is still in the investigation period, and he will definitely use it as his important practice in the future.

Then Li Xiao signaled Masuda Nagamori to withdraw.

The next thing that Li Xiao and Da Zang Changan are going to talk about is not something this new retainer can hear.

Li Xiao first asked Dazang Chang'an: "Is the mining of Shengang Silver Mountain saturated? If you have a way, I can recruit more miners to increase the mining volume."

The matter of Shengang Yinshan has always been the top secret in Li Xiao's family, and only a few close relatives, including Shima Katsumou, Bendo Masabe, and Dazang Changan, can know about it.

Dazang Changan thought for a while and said: "Master, after more than a year of operation, the mining volume of Shengang Yinshan is close to the maximum. Although there is still room for additional mining, due to the limitation of mineral veins, there is not much left."

Li Xiao heard what Dazang Changan said, and shook his head. He was looking for Dazang Changan this time. He hoped that Shengang Yinshan would surprise him a little bit more.

In other words, going to war is to make money. Without financial support, Li Xiao will be powerless if he has the ability.

Dazang Changan said: "Shengang Yinshan is indeed a rare and good mine. The stone found in Yinshan back then was nothing more than that. According to the current mining speed, Shengang Yinshan’s mineral reserves can be supported for more than 50 years without any problem. But for the time being, it is anxious to unearth the data collected over the past few decades within two or three years. This is not something human can do."

Li Xiao nodded, he also understood that the Tibetan Changan was telling the truth.

Li Xiao continued to ask: "Chang'an, as a practitioner, you also know the current plight of your family. There are ways you can expand your financial resources to alleviate this urgent need."

The Tibetan Changan thought for a while, and put forward a few more proposals.

After Li Xiao listened carefully, the plans mentioned by Tibetan Changan were very conceived, but either the start-up capital was too large, or the operation cycle was too long, so they were all useless for Li Xiao at the moment.

Seeing Li Xiao's dissatisfaction, Da Zang Changan could only rack his brains constantly.

When he was in desperation, the Tibetan Changan suddenly slapped his thigh and asked, "Master, do you know that you will return to Yunjin Mountain?"

Li Xiao heard what the Tibetan Changan said, and immediately understood what he was making.

Guiyun Jinshan is located in Guiyun Mountain, and Guiyun Mountain is within the territory of Neidaojia.

The inner city of the Neidao family belongs to Yuncheng, which is being built on this mountain.

Next, Chang'an of the Great Tibet told Li Xiao about the Guiyun Jinshan. In his suggestion, the Guiyunshan Jinshan of the Neidao family is undoubtedly a large mine. If it is mined by his method, it will definitely become the first in Li Xiao’s confinement. Two mines that are not inferior to Shengang Yinshan

Li Xiao thought of the importance of mines, and couldn't help but shine.

A Shengang Yinshan not only supports his Shengang, Snake Tail two teams, but also wealth. This is a big gold finger. For Li Xiao, Shengang Yinshan is equivalent to the existence of tens of thousands of stone high knowledge and action. .

If he can hold Guiyunshan Jinshan in his hands again, the problem of capital dilemma caused by his current expansion of the flags will be solved.

Faced with the suggestion of the Tibetan Changan, Li Xiao's heart was truly moved.

The Tibetan Chang'an clearly wants to persuade that Li Xiao snatched it from the home island’s lieutenant general to Yunjinshan.

Li Xiao thought for a while, and immediately summoned Dao Shengmeng and Ponto Masashin to discuss the feasibility of this matter.

After Shimao Shengmeng and Bendo Masashin entered the castle tower, the Tibetan Changan General had just discussed with Li Xiao and re-examined the matter.

Dao Shengmeng, after Bendo believed it, he was also moved by the sensuality, which was obviously also attracted by Guiyun Jinshan.

Dao Shengmeng first said: "If you want to seize Guiyun Jinshan, you must **** it from the inner island family. We have the pretext for sending troops right now."

This is true of the troop dispatch.

After Li Xiao captured the Nabeshan Castle of the sister Xiaolu’s family, the sister Xiaolu Lianglai was very unwilling afterwards, and directly complained to Takeda Shingen, saying that Li Xiao was fighting without a declaration and sent troops to attack and match the powerful family. It was not the commander of the Hida Yuezhong Army. Things.

And Li Xiao had also responded early, pulling the topic away, and fought back saying that the inner island family, who was supporting the rich family, sent troops for no reason, and favored the sister Xiaolu family.

At that time, it was just a superficial wrangling~www.wuxiamtl.com~Which side Takeda Shingen was favoring, everyone knew very well, but Li Xiao also showed that he was not wrong, and gave someone an explanation. .

The Neijima family ignored Li Xiao's reprimand, anyway, they have enough confidence not to put Li Xiao, or even Takeda family in their eyes.

As a Hida family, it is not unreasonable for the Uchijima family to stand so tough, because they have real hole cards.

Bendo Masahin said to Li Xiao: "Lord, even though we have an excuse to send troops to the inner island family, but if we are not very sure, we have not captured the strength of the inner island family. This is not as easy as conquering Guoshan City. Shen Gang Bei, Snake Tail Bei, and Qi Ben Bei were all dispatched, and they couldn't attack and return to Yuncheng."

Li Xiao understands the words of the book.

Inner Island’s home city is Yuncheng, a well-known strong city in the world, and as the strongest mountain city in the entire Hida, there is no one.
