Hojo Ushimasa looked at Wu Nian in surprise. He had never expected that the majestic King of Han would extend an olive branch to him, a remnant of the Hojo family and a sick young man who was about to die.
Hojo Ushimasa quickly agreed and said: "I am willing to serve as the king and do the work of dogs and horses."
He only saw sincerity in Wu Nian's eyes.
Although here in Fusang, Wu Nian's image is tarnished. But what is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true.
After Wu Nian conquered Goguryeo, he appointed Goguryeo's talents as civil and military officers. This time he crossed the sea to attack Fusang. The four infantry generals were all from Goguryeo.
Lu Liuliang stood firm in the isolated city and refused to surrender in a desperate situation.
Just ask. If Wu Nian treats him badly, will he be so loyal?
Not to mention Cui Wushuang, a native of Goguryeo, who joined the cabinet as prime minister.
Wu Nian employs people in an eclectic way, knows people well and assigns them well, and is a generous person. It would be good to be a minister under him.
Say it again.
Better to die than live. If he could be treated by a famous doctor from the Han Dynasty, he would be happy even if he lived a few more years.
Being indifferent to life and death does not mean that you want to die.
He is only eighteen years old.
"Yeah." Wu Nian smiled and hummed. Immediately, he asked people to take Hojo Ushimasa down. According to Hojo Ujimasa's suggestion, he summoned the Fuma ninjas serving in the Han army and sent someone to notify Fuma.
Deep in the mountains, inside the Hojo family's mansion and hut.
Fuma and dozens of former ministers of the Hojo family were either kneeling or sitting against the wall. Everyone seemed to have lost their soul, like a walking corpse.
"We have all despised our lord." Feng Mo sighed and said.
The dull eyes of the retainers moved for a moment, and then they shook their heads or sighed.
When the Hojo family fell, the Hojo clan was still very young. these years. They did not relax their education on Hojo Ujimasa.
Hojo Ushimasa's performance was relatively mediocre. Due to physical reasons, he did not participate in the revival of the family.
Everything is presided over by the wind demon.
In important meetings, Hojo Ushimasa's role was that of "sculpture". They discuss their own.
It now appears that the Hojo clan is not mediocre, at least he is very independent and moves quickly.
They ignored the Hojo clan politics and looked down upon their young master.
This made the retainers very happy that the governor of the Hojo family was not corrupted by their teachings.
But because of this, everything was over.
The Hojo clan is now in Wu Nian's hands, and their plans have been revealed.
The revival of the Hojo family has become a dream.
"Let's commit seppuku." Thirty-year-old Nobumitsu Kobayakawa suddenly stood up, pulled out his wakizashi from his waist, untied his clothes, and prepared to commit seppuku.
Years of loyalty were gone.
Not everyone can accept it.
"You're right. Let's commit seppuku." Immediately, a retainer stood up, untied his clothes and exposed his belly, preparing to commit seppuku.
"Asshole!" Fuma stood up, walked up to Nobumitsu Kobayakawa, slapped him hard, and cursed. Then he said: "My lord has gone against our aspirations. The Hojo family is destined to be cut off."
"But it doesn't mean. What we do is meaningless."
"Our loyal hearts can cut open our chests, take out our hearts and livers, and put them under the sun for the world to see."
"We have done everything we can, but the Hojo family is still cut off. This is also a helpless matter."
"We should find a new meaning in life, not commit seppuku."
"Isn't there anyone among you who likes tea ceremony? You can visit a famous teacher and learn tea ceremony."
"You can also live in seclusion."
"Of course. You can also enter the Han Dynasty and serve the King of Han on the orders of your lord."
"us."
"become free."
Having said this, Feng Mo walked out of the house, stood on the porch and raised his head to look at the sky, and then burst into tears.
The Hojo family.
perished.
The retainers in the room were stunned at first, then gradually calmed down, and their dull eyes gradually regained their luster.
Are you free?
After a short discussion, the retainers of the Hojo family, headed by Fuma, went their separate ways. Among them, Fuma led twenty-one retainers of the Hojo family, as well as people from the Fuma ninja clan, to Harima County to meet Wu Nian.
Harima County.
Inside the hall of the mansion.
Wu Nian was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on the main seat. Two teams of imperial guards lined up on the left and right, with their heads held high and their chests held high, their hands pressed on the hilts of their swords, staring at him eagerly.
Fuma and other twenty-two Hojo family retainers entered the main room and bowed to Wu Nian. Fuma lowered his head and said: "Old retainers of the Hojo family, Fuma leads twenty-two retainers of the Hojo clan."
"Meet the King of Han."
He was very proud and did not mention his previous plan to kill Wu Nian.
Wu Nian had already promised to the Hojo clan, and he didn't hold on to this pigtail, nor did he tease Fuma. He smiled and nodded, and said to Feng Mo: "No courtesy, sit down."
Immediately, he asked the Ouchi guards to make tea. After drinking tea, Wu Nian began to arrange their work.
The Feng Mo Ninja was officially incorporated into the Imperial City Si Yamen.
The remaining former officials of the Hojo family were arranged to enter government offices at all levels as officials.
Wu Nian did not do anything unnecessary.
As Hojo Ushimasa said. This group of people could be loyal to the Hojo family and now officially changed their family to serve the Han Dynasty.
Wu Nian believed in them and could be loyal to the Han Dynasty.
These twenty-one trusted old ministers of the Hojo family entered the officialdom and greatly consolidated the Han Dynasty's rule in Nishi Fuso.
The Fengma Ninja joined the Imperial City Division, which greatly strengthened the Han Dynasty's reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance capabilities in West Fusang.
Although Wu Nian had called An Shanya from the Imperial City Division before and told An Shanya that the Imperial City Division would deal with the Iga ninjas in the future.
An Shanya also agreed.
However, the power of the Imperial City Division is still somewhat weak.
Now it is even more powerful.
After several months of training and drills, the soldiers and horses gradually became stronger.
Through the appointment and removal of officials, Xifusang has been governed very well.
There is plenty of food in the granary.
The last intelligence weakness has also been strengthened.
Wu Nian did not hesitate anymore and decided to send troops.
After Fuma and others left, Wu Nian summoned the three generals Wang Gui, Kyogoku Dosan, and Lu Liuliang who were currently in Harima County, as well as Hojo Ushimasa, Anzanya and others to meet him.
After saluting, Wu Nian asked everyone to sit down.
The others took another look at Hojo Ushimasa.
Hojo Umasa nodded calmly to everyone. This time Wu Nian crossed the sea to attack Fusang and brought many good doctors. After these days of conditioning, Hojo Ushimasa's face turned rosy and his health began to improve.
Wu Nian did not ask for Hojo Ushimasa's clothing, but he began to grow his hair himself, wearing a black gown and a scarf, looking like a white-faced counselor.
After Wu Nian discussed with them, Lianrong ordered: "Let Li Tianbao lead a navy of 60,000 households to raid the coasts of Kii, Ise, Toe, Suruga, Mikawa, Owari and other countries."
"The remaining 150,000 infantry troops marched into Osaka Castle in three groups."
"Surround Osaka first."
"yes."
Wang Gui and others stood up with serious expressions, bent down and clasped their fists, shouting yes.
The final battle has begun.
