The morning light breaks out, and the east becomes white. Hideho went to Honmaru alone to meet with Hideyori and Yodohime in an uneasy mood. Although he was said to be alone, he was actually escorted by nearly a hundred royal horses. On the one hand, he considered that the city was still unstable, and on the other hand, it was also time to show his strength as Hideyori Hinomi, the most famous person in the world. Along the way, Hideho saw through the curtain of the sedan chair the samurai who bowed their hands submissively and the civilians who knelt and kowtowed on both sides of the road. He felt proud but also worried: "How many people will be afraid and framed by such power?" The team marched to Honmaru Oteguchi, and the defending samurai immediately let them go without saying a word - no wonder, after this commotion, all Osaka Castle defenses were taken over by Hideho. At this time, the general defending the city was none other than Hideho, the samurai guarding Kageyoshi. This heir to the Sukada Yin-ryu swordsmanship and his senior brother Kamiizumi Yasutsuna guarded Otehonmaru Otekuchi and Otosemon respectively, with a force of more than 2,000. Hideho raised the curtain of the sedan chair and nodded to Kageyoshi Suida. The latter was wearing armor and could only bow in return. Hideho understood this, said "Thank you" with a smile, and went straight into the honmaru. At this moment, a shout broke the tranquility of the morning light. ¡°Is that Your Highness in front of you?¡± Not far behind Hideho, a middle-aged man sitting on a carriage shouted loudly. Hideho immediately ordered the sedan to stop, and Hisaki Aoki came to the sedan window and said softly: "Your Majesty, this is Major General Wakasa." "Oh?" Hideho thought for a moment and said to Hisaki Aoki, "I want to get off the sedan. " Hisaki Aoki immediately asked the bearer to put down the sedan chair. Hideho walked out of the bamboo sedan chair, turned around and bowed to Kinoshita Katsuki. Kinoshita Katsutoshi was so flattered when he saw this that he almost jumped out of the carriage and came to Hideho in three steps and two steps at a time. Before Hideho could say anything, he fell to the ground with a "pop" and kowtowed: "The sinner wanted to I went to the Youfu Mansion to plead guilty. It is God¡¯s will to meet you here. Please punish me severely.¡± What Cheng did, I know I can¡¯t blame him for it" Kinoshita Katsuki replied. Hideho suddenly realized that when the Mori clan attacked Fushimi Castle, at the critical moment, it was the Major General Wakasa in front of him who blew up the city wall, causing the defenders to collapse and Fushimi to fall. Many senior officials of the Yamato Toyotomi clan died in this battle. Regarding this matter, Hideho¡¯s previous character would never give up, but he couldn¡¯t hate Kinoshita Katsutoshi. After all, this guy was able to successfully quell the riot in Osaka, and this guy had merit. Moreover, he is the nephew of Kodaiin Ningning and the eldest son of the Kinoshita family. As the saying goes, don¡¯t look at the monk¡¯s face to see the Buddha¡¯s face. Considering that Kodaiin still has a certain influence, in order to win over the Owari faction, Kinoshita wins. Jun's punishment is naturally unenforceable. Not only that, in this plan, Hideho also gave him the seal of Wakasa Takahama - the 20,000 stone Chiyuki originally belonged to Kinoshita Katshun's younger brother Kinoshita Toshibo, but the latter During Hideho's campaign in Aizu, he secretly communicated with Tokugawa Ieyasu, and his letters were confiscated by Hideho, causing him to undergo changes. With Takahama Castle, Kinoshita Katsutoshi became the lord of the 85,000-koku Tomoyuki Kingdom in Wakasa, and he could be regarded as entering the ranks of the lords of the country. However, Kinoshita Katsutoshi did not know the content of the plan at the moment. Although Hideho had promised him that he could use Osaka's achievements to make him guilty, he was still worried and was not sure whether Hideho would really fulfill his promise. After all, with Hideho's power at the moment, he was not qualified to bargain. Therefore, Kinoshita Katsutoshi is also fully mentally prepared: even if the merits and demerits cannot be equalized, as long as one life can be saved, it is acceptable to have all the territory reduced. "Major General, I heard that your brother has not been idle during this period." Hideho squatted down, put his face close to Kinoshita Katsumi who was prostrate on the ground, and said with a half-smile. "This" Kinoshita Katsutoshi was shocked and couldn't help but trembled: "Toshibo did have correspondence with Tokugawa and Uesugi. The guilty minister has reported this matter to his father and Kodaiin. Now Toshibo has been banned from Takahama. , I will listen to His Highness." "Major General did a good job in killing relatives for the sake of justice." Hideho patted Kinoshita Katsuki on the shoulder and smiled meaningfully. In fact, Hideho has sympathy for Kinoshita Katsutoshi. Everyone knows that Kinoshita Katsutoshi and Kinoshita Toshitoshi are the eldest and second sons of Kinoshita Kasada, but one thing that is rarely mentioned is that these two are not Kinoshita Kasada's biological flesh and blood. Among the seven sons of the Kinoshita family, in addition to Kobayakawa Hideaki who is world-famous, the brothers Kinoshita Katsutoshi and Kinoshita Toshibo are also legendary. The Wakasa Takeda clan, as a branch of the Kai Takeda clan, became the guardian of Wakasa due to their merits in defeating the Isshiki clan, and began to rule Wakasa and Tango. But like many traditional daimyo, the Wakasa Takeda clan suffered from internal problems after the Onin Rebellion.With constant troubles and declining family fortunes, his power eventually shrank to the Wakasa country and was challenged by the powerful domestic forces. After that, the Echizen Asakura clan sent troops to Wakasa in the name of an ally to assist the Takeda clan in suppressing the rebellion. The final result was that the Wakasa Takeda clan almost became a vassal of the Asakura clan, and the entire Wakasa country was occupied by the Asakura clan. During the Gengame period, Oda Nobunaga officially went to war with Echizen Asakura. Takeda Motoaki, the last head of the Wakasa Takeda clan, took the opportunity to move closer to Oda Nobunaga. After the Asakura clan's demise, he obtained three thousand stone Tomoyuki and used it as " In the name of "Wakasa", Niwa returns to Wakasa as Niwa Nagahide's strength. However, out of dissatisfaction with Niwa Nagahide for looking down on him, Takeda Motoaki sided with Akechi Mitsuhide after the "Honnoji Incident" broke out and launched an attack on the Niwa clan's city. As we all know, Akechi Mitsuhide was ultimately defeated. As his ally, Takeda Motoaki also suffered a counterattack by Niwa Nagahide and finally chose to commit suicide. Here comes the key point: after Takeda Motoaki's death, his wife Kyogoku Ryuko was adopted by Hideyoshi as a side chamber, called Matsumaru-den. Of the two sons and one daughter left behind, except for the daughter who died young, both sons were adopted as adopted sons of the Kinoshita family. They are Kinoshita Katsutoshi and Kinoshita Toshifang. As the saying goes, "A son is as precious as his mother." With Hideyoshi's love for his mother, Kinoshita Katsutoshi received 60,000 koku from Wakasa Kohama in the third year of Bunroku, and Kinoshita Toshibo received 25,000 koku from Wakasa Takahama. This was a dramatic completion. The wish of their biological father, Motoaki Takeda, was to restore rule over the Wakasa country. It's a pity that at this time they can only call themselves the Kinoshita clan, and the Wakasa Takeda clan will never appear in Wakasa's land again. Although he has no impression of Toyotomi Hidenaga, let alone feelings, Hideho has indeed felt the difficulty of being an adopted son in the past few years, which has also made him have feelings for the Kinoshita brothers, Yuki Hideyasu, Ukita Hideie, and even Kobayakawa Hideaki both had varying degrees of sympathy. "Get up," Hideho helped Kinoshita Katshun up with both hands, patted the dust on his body, and said kindly: "I keep my word, Major General. Just rest assured and don't think wildly."
