    Tanba Kingdom, Tanba Kameyama Castle.

    Because Takeda Nobushige's feudal state this time, the Li family's territory was divided into two parts using Echizen.

    To the east are the five kingdoms of Inaba, Tajima, Tango, Tanba, and Wakasa.

    To the west is the base of the Hida Etchu Army.

    Tanba Kameyama Castle was a wise and glorious city in history, and now it has become the center of the Ri family in the Western Kingdom and Kinki due to its convenient location.

    Today¡¯s gathering, all the Li family¡¯s retainers came from all directions to obey orders under the city.

    This time Li Xiao officially announced that he would hand over most of the family affairs to Li Zheng and take a back seat.

    After hearing the news, all the retainers of the Li family were surprised. Li Xiao was only forty years old and in his prime, but he announced his retirement early.

    Everyone thought that although Li Xiao asked Li Zheng to replace him during the Guanyuan battle and stand in front of the stage to abbot the martial arts etiquette of victory, it did not mean that Li Xiao officially retired.

    If Li Xiao wants to completely let go, he will have to wait at least five more years.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? But after Li Xiao became the leader of the four-position Central Attendant, Li Zheng announced that he would hand over most of his power, which was somewhat beyond everyone's expectations.

    In Tanba Kameyama Castle.

    After hearing the news, the Li family retainers gathered from all directions. There were hundreds of people, and the large room in the city could not accommodate them, so they built a temporary large shed outside and placed big fire pots around it.

    The blazing flames dispelled the coldness in the surroundings. In the big shed, all the retainers sat on the mats and raised their heads to look up.

    Li Xiao sitting on the corridor.  Looking at the darkness below the steps and the more than 300 retainers wearing hunting clothes, I couldn't help but feel relieved.

    I think back then, I was no better than Shima Katsume, Shioka Kazuha, and Obata Yumi were serving as my retainers.

    Today, it has a height of nearly two million stones, with standing troops, more than 10,000 warriors, and the total mobilization force of the family reaches 100,000.  He is one of the most powerful names in the world.

    Li Xiao turned around and saw that Kazuha Oka, who initially followed his master, was the third generation in his family just like him.

    Dao Shengmeng is already middle-aged, sitting at the head of the first row of the retainers' table, showing the posture of leading the ministers.

    And Yumi Obata became his wife.

    "Greetings to the lord (main hall)!"

    Hundreds of retainers saluted together, which made Li Xiao come back to his senses and said: "There is no need to be too polite."

    After all the retainers raised their heads, they all held their breaths.  Waiting for Li Xiao to speak.

    "Everyone, this is my last abbotship," Li Xiaoyan said. "My family has decided that from now on, the heavy responsibility of the Li family will be entrusted to the general of the Imperial Guard."

    Although the retainers had already prepared, they heard what Li Xiao said.  Can't help but be surprised.

    Li Xiao looked around and saw Shima Shengmeng, Hashiba Hideucha, and Todo Takatora, veterans who had been following him for many years.  They all had bright eyes and looked reluctant to give up.

    The retainers seemed a little worried.

    It¡¯s not that they don¡¯t trust Li Zheng, everyone recognizes Li Zheng¡¯s ability, but they really rely too much on Li Xiao¡¯s ability.  There is even an element of dependence.

    In the fifth year of Yonglu, when the predecessor of the Hida Yuezhong Army was formed, Li Xiao had only a hundred men under his command.

    Today is the end of the seventh year, and after eighteen years of hard work, the Hida Ezhong Army has conquered the world in the first battle of Sekigahara and has become a major force in the eleven countries.

    Japan has sixty-six countries, and the Li family owns eleven.  Li Zhengnai is a well-deserved sixth of the palace.

    Now that Li Xiao has really announced his retirement, all the retainers are worried.

    Li Xiao saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, then looked at Li Zheng, stroked his shoulder, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"

    At this time, Todo Gaohu said: "My lord, the world has not yet been peaceful. Maori, our tribe of the Chosect is still there, and all the powers in Kyushu will be wiped out. We and other retainers are still waiting for the lord to lead us with the young master to sweep across the four directions, adding more and more people."  Martial name."

    "I, Todo Takatora, still miss the days when I went on expeditions with my lord!"

    When Todo Takatora said this, Shima Shengmeng, Jinbo Nagaken, Hashiba Hidenaga and other retainers burst into laughter.

    Li Xiao turned around and saw Li Zheng smiling, not dissatisfied at all that the retainers valued Li Xiao.

    Li Xiao couldn¡¯t help but admire, not being shaken by the opinions of outsiders but by his own cognition, this is true self-confidence!

    Li Xiao thought to himself that he was relieved enough to entrust the Li family's two million stone land and the hegemony of these eleven countries to Li Zheng.

    Regarding the attempts by the generals such as Todo Takatora to stay, Li Xiao smiled and said: "Why, I'm so old and I have to drag myself into battle again."??  "

    Li Xiao said this, and all the retainers laughed.

    Li Xiao straightened up, looked down at everyone and said: "Teng Tang is right, the world has not been truly peaceful yet, everyone should not neglect it, so it is not the time to retire after success."

    "That's why you all have to work harder to assist our family governor and take another step forward so that the martial arts fortune of our Li family will not decline for a long time."

    "oh!"

    All the retainers unanimously agreed, sweeping away the pessimism about Li Xiao's abdication just now.

    When the old and the new change, it¡¯s time to let go.

    Li Xiao thought of this, looked at the retainers and said: "You have all followed me, Li Xiao, and have fought on the battlefield for many years. You have worked hard and made great achievements. In this battle of Guanyuan, you will fight to the death with me and my son."

    "The hegemony of our eleven kingdoms has just been created, and we are a name that can be counted in the world. The king and his ministers should be able to share adversity and wealth. Today is the time for you to share the hegemony with my family."

    When Li Xiao said this, all the retainers held their breaths, knowing that this critical moment had arrived.

    Li Xiao¡¯s decision can be regarded as the future prosperity of each of their families and the inheritance of their family name.

    Li Xiao glanced over and landed on the first row of Mazha's retainers. They were all the generals at the head of each banner of the Li family, and were promoted by one hand, while the second row were those who served Li Xiao.

    Li Xiao¡¯s eyes fell on the position of the retainer in the writing, and he said aloud: "The island is victorious!"

    "oh!"

    Dao Shengmeng agreed loudly, stood up from the horse, walked to the steps and bowed.

    He is a few years older than Li Xiao, so his temples are already gray. He has been stationed in Meinong for many years, leading his Meinong people to fight, and has experienced most of Li Xiao's key battles, and has made great achievements.

    Li Xiao looked at Dao Shengmeng¡¯s solemn look and spoke loudly, his voice echoing in this pill.

    "Dao Shengmeng has served our family for eighteen years. His loyalty and bravery have become a role model for all generals. His loyalty and military exploits will never be forgotten in my life. I, Li Xiao, hereby confer 89,000 stones to Inaba Kingdom.  Granted the position of guardian daimyo of Inaba Kingdom.¡±

    "I am willing to be loyal to my family!" Dao Shengmeng said loudly.

    Dao Shengmeng originally had only twenty-five thousand stone-level retainers in Meinong due to his accumulated military exploits.

    Now he has actually become the protector of a country, a country-level daimyo.

    Today, apart from the Takeda clan, only Li Xiao has the ability and magnanimity to grant his subordinates the protection of a country.  relative!  If you think this site is good, please remember to help promote it!  This site!
