Chapter 8 Who Said Samurai Was Not Afraid of Death

After Nakamura Ichishi finished speaking, he saw that Yuki Iriura had taken a few steps forward to him, and the ninja knife in his hand was already crossing his neck.

"Lord, since he doesn't want to surrender, let his subordinates kill him."

Ichiko Nakamura only felt a chill on her neck, and couldn't help but regret it. If she surrendered, she could live two more days. If she didn't surrender, she would have to die now. This is not the ending she wanted. Is she afraid of death? Obviously she was afraid, and she just died, which was meaningless. But she had just said something she didn't want to surrender. If she regretted it now, he couldn't do such a thing. Although he was a little afraid of death, as a samurai, he was somewhat enlightened.

Although Yukisaburo didn't know what he was thinking, he was a talented person who left a famous name in history, so how could he give up easily? He wanted to work hard, so he only heard him ask: "Why don't you want to surrender to our family?"

Seeing that he had a chance to speak, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at first, but he definitely couldn't say that you would definitely not be able to beat Hexao. If everyone finished playing together, otherwise he would be really dead. So after thinking about it, he found a reason and said: "Sir Tamakawa, as far as I know, the Tamakawa family is not rich. If the Lord is recruiting me, can I still pay a salary?"

"Don't worry, if you are willing to be loyal to me, your salary will definitely not be missing." Zong Qing heard that the other party's reason was really far-fetched. If it were the ones who were the ones who might not be able to support too many retainers before, but the funds in Haijin City were definitely indispensable. This is not a problem at all. It is probably because he felt that he could not beat the Hexao family.

And what he meant was obviously a sign of surrender. This was probably the ninja sword in Yukiku's hand that came into effect. As for the other party's fear of death, Yukisaburo felt that it was indifferent. It was human nature to be afraid of death. If everyone was not afraid of death, there would be no one in the world long ago.

Ichizu Nakamura was indeed just finding a way for himself to survive. Since the other party had made a promise, he could take this opportunity to get a chance to survive. So he stretched out a hand and carefully pushed the ninja knife that was crossed in front of his neck out, then saluted and said, "Even so, my subordinates are willing to be loyal to the lord."

"Okay, I'll now appoint you as your best friend, and your salary is five cents."

Ichizu Nakamura was not very happy to hear that the other party had appointed him as his first goal. Although he gave birth to an official position and his salary increased, it took several more days to use it.

After surrendering the Ichiko Nakamura, Yukisaburo ordered the generals to clean up the Tianshou Pavilion, and then he took his three retainers in.

When everyone sat in the evaluation room, Yukisaburo asked, "Sun Pingji, are you still familiar with this Haijin Castle?"

The Ichiko Nakamura was originally a samurai who was in charge of the government affairs of this city, so how could he not be familiar with it?

"When I go back to the lord, my subordinates had been following the government affairs of this city before, so I am quite familiar with the city." No matter what, since I have become the other party's retainer, Ichiko Nakamura has also begun to exercise his responsibilities, so I heard him speak.

"Okay, since that's the case, then you can talk about the situation first." Yukisawaro couldn't help but feel satisfied after hearing this. If he asked himself to understand the situation, he still didn't know when he would have to wait to understand it clearly.

"Lord, this Haijin Castle was built to resist the Asai family, so the army had a total of 500 people. Since Lord Hexao fought with the Asai family, 450 people were directly transferred this time. However, after the war was over, they would return. How to resist at that time? Please prepare early."

"You don't have to worry about this. I want to know about the capital in the city now. Do you understand?"

"I have a total of 1,210 yuan of funds in the city, and I have reserved 200 sets of spears and 200 spears. I'll ask the lord to decide."

Hearing this, Yukisawa was so excited that he had more than a thousand guan. Two days ago, he saw that the entire Yukawa family was still worried about how many guans were. Now he suddenly had more than a thousand guans. What does this mean? It was like a beggar suddenly won the lottery jackpot, and suddenly became rich.

And there are more than these, 200 sets of lightweight and 200 spears, which instantly allows our family to pull up a military force of 200 people, and they are not peasants holding bamboo guns and without armor...

When Nakamura Ichishi saw the excited expression of his lord, he quickly added: "Lord, although there are more than 1,000 stakes in the city and 200 sets of soldiers, since the role of Haijin Castle is to defend against the attack of the Asai family, there is no farmland village, it is just a city."

After hearing this, Yukisaburo, who was still very excited just now, was immediately unable to be happy. He only heard him ask: "What do you mean is that although I have captured this city, I have not obtained a single stone of land?"

"Yes, lord, although there is a lot of land that can be cultivated outside the city, it has been abandoned. If it can attract a large number of refugees, it will be turned into arable land in less than a year or two."

After hearing this, Yukisaburo couldn't help but say that it would be good if he could have one or two months. Fortunately, he still had more than a thousand guan, which would at least allow him to hire some ninjas.

"It won't work for too long, so you will send someone to spread news among the villages in Takashima County. If you are willing to settle outside Haijin City in everything, then you will not collect any taxes this year. Starting next year, our family will share the accounts with them."

"Lord, if all taxes are exempted, then there will be no income this year. If there is still 55, isn't it..."

"Isn't it because I have no income? Just do it like this. Only by attracting refugees to settle down as quickly as possible can I have the strength to compete with the enemy."

Hearing this, Ichi-shi Nakamura stopped persuading him.

Since I cannot recruit from the territory, Yukisaburo can only think of a solution from the ninja aspect.

So he only heard him ask: "Outura Masaki, Yokotani Yukichi, can you two men raise a ninja army of about 100 people in a short period of time?"

After the two looked at each other, they shook their heads helplessly, and only they could hear Ura Shengqing say, "My lord, although I am from the Western Foreign Ministry, since they are controlled by the Maori family, it is okay to hire ninjas. However, if you want a large number of ninjas to join the lord, your subordinates are not sure. Please forgive me."

After hearing this, Yukisaburo nodded. Thinking about it, these two people founded Shinno Toru Pori with the support of the Sanada family after they went to the Sanada family. It was obvious that because these two people were robbed by them, they had not even gone to the Sanada family, how could they have their own power? It seems that these two people can't count on them anymore, so they had to go to Koga to try their luck next time.

But when he was a little disappointed, he heard Yokotani Shigeyuki say suddenly: "Lord, although his subordinates cannot be sure, one subordinate thought it is worth a try."
