Prime Minister Bizen

Chapter 859: Transferring seals to 9 states

After Hideie met with Mogami Yoshimitsu and others, the plan for the transfer of feudal lords in the world after Keicho's rebellion was finally basically finalized.

Hideie, Asano Nagamasa, Toyotomi Hidesada, Nakagawa Hidemasa and Toyotomi Teruie gathered around the stove to make tea and review the plan.

Asano Nagamasa saw the reward for himself at first glance: "Minami Ise, excluding the four counties of Kuwana, Kanben, Tomei, and Mie, the total is 42 koku, plus the Iga country, the total is 55 koku."

Asano Nagamasa now owned the 44-koku territory of Echu Takaoka. Even though he was granted an additional 10 koku and was moved to a higher country like Ise, he was still not satisfied.

Especially when he saw Toyotomi Hidesada's plan to transfer 33 koku from Koriyama to Owari and 80 koku from Nishi Mikawa, he felt that his contribution was definitely underestimated by Hideie, and he should be given 60 Wan Shi.

"Your Highness, why didn't the four northern Ise counties all be given to me?"

He immediately saw that the Hide family had placed two daimyo here, namely Oda Hidenobu, who was stationed in Mie County with 5.3 koku; Zhengli.

But he couldn't understand, since the entire Ise had enough territory of 60 koku for him, why he had to tear down the four northern counties and give them to others, and then find 13 koku from other territories to supply himself.

"I once promised the Oda family to provide security for their Owari family. Although I have broken my promise now, I am too embarrassed to provide them with security measures far away, so I can only provide security measures nearby in Ise.

Councilor Asano is not willing to grant a distant seal. It is indeed difficult to find a kingdom in the entire Kinki region that can accommodate His Highness's wealth.After all, Ise is a fertile land, with fertile land and good fish and salt.I have made up for the shortcomings from Iga Country. "

In fact, Hideya's OS at the moment is, were you, Asano Nagamasa, ready to leave for me from the beginning?
You were obviously forced to come here by Osaka, and did you have any outstanding performance during the entire war?
This time, not only were you given a seal of 10 koku, but you were also moved to Ise. Aren’t you satisfied?
Asano Nagamasa is a very smart man. Although he is a little dissatisfied with the 55 koku provided by Hideie, he knows that the current situation is stronger than others.Moreover, he has now received a seal of 10 stone, which is indeed more than many famous names later.

Hideie actually originally wanted to arrange for them to go to Kii Country, but the current Kii Country only has 36 koku. It was later developed to 55 koku by brothers Asano Yukinaga and Asano Nagamaki. If they were to be given Kii Country, Yi will have to reward Izumi again.

But the location of Izumi is too important. It is too close to Osaka. On the basis of meeting the conditions of Kodaiyuan's requirement that the Asano family be as close to Kinki as possible, the Hide family does not want them to be too close to Osaka.

Don’t think that Asano Nagamasa’s questions are over. There will be constant problems in the subsequent deliberation process.

For example, many people originally thought that the Uesugi family would be changed, but it was actually retained by the two counties of Echigo and Joetsu for 20 koku; the Mori family was thrown into the old territory of the Iwaki Soma family, and the Iwaki Miaoha, Yukata, Uta, Katata, and The six counties of Igu and Watari received 6 koku; while the Maeda family and the Iwaki family were sealed in Bingo, of which the Maeda family only received 13 koku.

As for Tokugawa Ieyasu, everyone was even more surprised. The Hide family sealed them in Nemuro, Kushiro and Kunashiri Sankuni in the northernmost part of Ezo Island, and renamed them Shunji, Tono and Mishima Sankuni, which added up to exactly It is Junyuan Three Kingdoms.

In the mechanized era of later generations, the great plains of Kushiro and Nemuro were one of the breadbaskets of Hokkaido, but now they are just forests and swamps, and the land is still occupied by Ainu savages.

Hideie threw the Tokugawa family into such a corner, and his displeasure with the Tokugawa family was already obvious.

Not to mention, Hideie made it clear that Tokugawa Ieyasu and Tokugawa Hidetada must live in seclusion in Toyoharu with Uesugi Kagekatsu. The one who actually went to Ezo was Tokugawa Tadamasa, who changed his surname from Ii Tadamasa back to Tokugawa. .

As for the Hide family's cheap son-in-law Matsudaira Tadaki, he doesn't have to go to Ezo because his wife is the Hide family's daughter.He allowed 5 koku to be kept at Hitachi Racecourse (now Shinboda City) for the Matsudaira Miao generation.

Both Asano Nagamasa and Nakagawa Hidemasa were worried that such an arrangement would lead to a back-and-forth between Tokugawa Ieyasu and other daimyo. After all, Tokugawa Ieyasu once said that Hideie promised to send Tokugawa Iejun away to Sansikoku. Now such an arrangement is suspected of being opportunistic. , damaging the reputation of Xiujia.

However, when Hideie made it clear that he had only promised Hidetada Shun's trip to the Three Three Kingdoms, and that he had promised Tokugawa Ieyasu about 30 koku for his safety, and that the place of knowledge and travel was undecided, it was Tokugawa Ieyasu who took the opportunity to force Miya Hideie's story. There were no words.

The main reason was that even his own son Toyotomi Hidesada didn't express any objection. What else could the two outsiders say?

Nakagawa Hidemasa was blocked by Hideyasu with 36 koku in Kii. Nakagawa Hidemasa himself was very satisfied with this award.

In addition, they also noticed that many retainers under the Hide family were separated. In addition to the 11.3-koku Suga Masato mentioned before, there were also the Shinano Ogun County, Ueno Province Agatsuma, and Tone County combined. Nobushige Sanada with 10 koku.

In fact, thanks to the favor of the Hide family and his achievements over the years, Sanada Nobushige was awarded more than just this.But because of the dragging down of his brother Nobuyuki Sanada, the Sanada family could only do so after the merits and demerits were balanced.Fortunately, we have returned to the territory that was previously controlled by Sanada Masayuki.

Todo Takatora was granted the title of Aki Hiroshima for 26 koku, Akashi Zenden was granted the title of Harima Akashi Castle for 15 koku, Hanabusa Masashira was granted the title of Nakatakamatsu Castle for 22 koku, Togawa Tatsuyasu was granted the title of Inabatori for 13.9 koku, Nagabune Tsunao was awarded the Sanuki title of 18.6 koku and so on.

As for the sons of the Hide family, it is natural that the Toyotomi Teru family will inherit the Musashi, Saitama, Shimoso, and Mikuni over 120 million stones;

Including the total of Fukuoka before the Ashikaga family was feudal, 35;
Toyotomi Sojuro Nobuie (Kikuhime's second son and legitimate son) who was granted the title of 25 koku in Okayama;

Tora Uesugi, who was awarded 20 koku from Echigo;
Received the title of Iwadai Koriyama's 15 Toyotomi court family;
Before the sealing, some 18 Tsutsui houses were settled in Ogura in Bunzen;
Harima Himeji has a family base of 15 yuan;
The 13 Toyotomi Chong family was entrusted with the title of Nagato Xiaguan;
The Yuki court family was granted the title of Shimono Utsunomiya with 15 yuan;

Granted the title of Wakasa + Echizen Tsuruga 10.5 Sanjo Minoru family;
In addition, there are also people like Tachibana Kageie who can inherit Kurume 30 after the Tachibana family was built.

Everyone had already expected a reward for the Hide family's son who had made meritorious service in this battle. Except for Toyotomi Teruie Tomoyuki, who gave a little more, the others were really economical in their rewards.

As for Hideie himself, after losing Saitama, Musashi, Sagami, and Shimotsou, he completed the three kingdoms of Ueno, Ibaraki, and Hitachi, and was granted the title of Omi, Yamashiro, Yamato, Kawachi, and Echizen, plus Settsu, The total amount of scattered land in Harima, Higo, Shimono, and Echigo is about 420 million koku.

In fact, the Xiu family did not have many seals. After the previous update, the official height was 235 million shi, and the actual height was close to 300 million shi. In this calculation, the Xiu family has made such a great contribution, and it is only a doubling of knowledge and practice.

This reward was finally sent to the Gaotaiyuan. Although she was a little wary of the Xiu family, the Xiu family's sons and the Xiu family's retainers controlling more than 800 million stone territory, at this moment Ningning was powerless to stop the Xiu family's rise. , she could only acquiesce to this result and sign the monogram on the final petition for reward.

At this point, the letter of reward officially had legal effect and was finally promulgated in the court.

The daimyo have been waiting for this day for a long time. At this moment, although the Uesugi Tora family and the Ashikaga family are still conquering Kyushu and Tohoku with some daimyo, the daimyo can no longer restrain their excitement and are looking forward to it.

This award ceremony was very solemn. Toyotomi Hidesada was in charge of presiding over it. Toyotomi Teruie, who was only 15 years old, was responsible for distributing the certificates of sentiment and knowledge and deeds. Hideie, Toyotomi Hidetoshi and Kodaiin sat on the imperial steps to control the overall situation.

Except for Toyotomi Shuri, whose mother had just died, with a dark face, the other daimyo had joyful smiles on their faces.

"Rewards start from Kyushu." As Toyotomi Hidesada coughed twice and began to speak, the originally noisy hall gradually became quiet. "Nabeshima Naomo Sekihara performed meritorious deeds and led 20 koku from the old territory of Ryuzoji Temple and the Hizen headquarters, and was based in Saga Castle."

When Nabeshima and Ryuzoji Temple were separated, Ryuzoji Temple received 15 koku and Nabeshima Naoshige received 7 koku.Now that the Ryuzoji family has been changed, Nabeshima Naoshima has been granted a title of 20 koku, which is officially confirmed as inheriting the Ryuzoji family's territory.The most important thing is that Zhixing tripled his seal by 13 shi, which can be regarded as the preferential treatment given to him by the Xiu family.

"Tachibana Munemo Sekihara performed meritorious deeds. He led the post-construction project and received a total of 30 koku. He was based in Kurume."

"He had meritorious service in building the Imperial Guard of the Ziguang Gate. He commanded 5 stones from the three counties of Hizen East (Ji'e, Adoptive Father, and Sangen), and was based in Tosu Castle."

"The Harada commander-in-chief allowed the reinstatement of Takahashi's original surname, and gave him 4 koku from the four counties of Fengzhuqian, Yaxu, Kama, Shangzao, and Hazata."

"The Ashikaga family has made great achievements, so they built 8 koku in the eight prefectures west of Maesaya and Suinami, Fukuoka Castle in this drama."

"Tsitsui moved 18 yuan to Bunzen Kokura due to his accumulated merits, and led the construction of the two prefectures of Toga and Kamate and the three prefectures of Bunzen Kejie, Tagawa and Kyoto."

"Mori Tamasa Mikawa, Owari, and Sekigahara made many contributions, and moved to Fengmae Nakatsu for 21 people."

"Otomo Yoshitō has made great achievements in sticking to his skills and moved 7 koku of Bungo East Kingdom to Kitusu Castle in this drama."

"Although Satake Yoshitaka raised troops from the Zuofu, conquered the prefecture and then broke through the pass, he had a lot of credit. However, his son Satake Yoshihide cannot escape the responsibility for the Northeast Rebellion. Today, the merits and demerits are equal to the 31 koku in Fengfengmae, and the base is Oita. city."

"Xiangma Yiyinjing is difficult to achieve meritorious service, and he is granted a seal of 12 shi from Rixiang Yanggang. (Added seal of 4)"

"Ito Xiuxian has made great contributions to the peace, and he has made 5 kilograms of fat in the sun."

This is the illegitimate son of the Hide family in the Ito family. He has been working as a follower around the Toyotomi Teru family. At this moment, he already knows his identity.

Xiujia wanted to give his son a good title, but was dissuaded by his own son Huijia.Logically speaking, Ito Soo-hyun has a good character, and he has been his playmate since childhood, so he should give others a good reward.

However, the Toyotomi Teru family felt that they needed to take care of Kikuhime's emotions. In addition, Ito Hideken was always the shady son, and he did not have any outstanding achievements. Giving him 5 koku was pretty good.

This was also the first time that Toyotomi Teruie had different opinions on the decision that Hideie had already made. Hideie felt that the Teruie family had finally grown up, and at the same time, he also adopted his suggestion and cut Ito Hideken's knowledge and actions in half.

"Osumihara Daimyo Kato Kiyomasa was unidentified and led his troops to join the thieves. Fortunately, he stopped at the cliff and moved to Miyazaki County with a seal of 6 koku (the seal was reduced by 11)."

"The Wakasa samurai Otani Yoshikatsu protected Kodaiin along the way, and Ichijo Councilor waited for the high officials of the imperial court to avoid the war. He was awarded a seal of 5 koku."

Hideie liked Otani Yoshitsugi very much, but after all, he was on the opposite side of Hideie.If he hadn't been a little clearer and asked his younger brother (adopted son) to escort the two sons of Kodaiin and Xiujia to escape to Ezhong, the Otani family would not have been able to escape the fate of being changed.

However, it is precisely because of the merits of escorting the two sons of Kodaiin and Hideie that the Hide family can erase all the right and wrong in the past, but they can no longer have such a good place as Tsuruga.

"The great name of Anfang, Ukita Kan, contributed greatly to the peace of the family. He was awarded 19 stones by Higo Uto, Yatsushiro, and Mashiro."

"The Higo Daimyo and Aso clan's Sagara clan retain their abilities."

"The retained part of the Hizen Daimyo Matsuura Town Shinto's skills, and the additional seal of Matsuura Goto Tomoyuki totaling 6 koku."

"Kobayakawa Hideaki moved to take over part of Hizen Hikiki County and Fujitsu County, and took over 5 koku from Omura Castle."

"A samurai of the Toyoharu family, Kamei Shimo moved 9 koku to Karatsu, Matsuura County, Hizen."

"A samurai of the Toyoharu family, who lived in Qingliang and moved to Hizen to join parts of Gaolai County and Hikiko County. The city of Nagasaki has 7 koku."

"Pusheng Xiuxing, a great name in the Northeast, has great achievements in adapting to peace and hard work. He was awarded the title of 6 stones in the six counties of Dayu."

Hideie was actually unwilling to grant a seal to Hideyuki Kamao. This guy had a 10-stone leader, but he was not as powerful as the 7-stone Yuki Haruto when sending troops to fight. He was just a scratch player.

But who let Xiujia win? He was lucky enough to get 14 stone just by the general and the transfer subsidy.

"The Daimyo of Shinano, Terumasa Ikeda, has made great contributions to the peace of Japan. He has been awarded the title of Satsuma, the two counties of Ohsumi, Higo Ashihoku, and Amakusa counties, with a total of 42 koku, and an additional 15 koku!"

I don’t know why, when Toyotomi Hidesada was reading about the seal here, he also reminded him that the seal was worth 15 koku.

At this point, Kyushu’s reward officially ends.

Terumasa Ikeda had a strange expression when he took over the Senshu and Tomoyo Shou from Toyotomi Teruie. He was satisfied with the 15 koku seal, but was a little distressed about being moved to the Shimazu family's old place in Minami Kyushu.

Just as distressed as him was Shimazu Yoshihiro. Hideie originally promised him Satsuma and Osumi, and this was how he gained his support.

But as Toyotomi Hidesada closed the canonized scroll, it became clear that it was impossible for his family to get Satsuma Ohsumi.Not only is it impossible to get Satsuma Osumi, it may even be impossible to stay in Kyushu.

Although I don’t know why there are still some lands in Chikuzen, Higo and Hizen that have not been rewarded, it is obvious that these plots of land cannot accommodate the Shimazu family.

If Shimazu Yoshihiro hadn't known it well and knew that Hideie was not a person who broke his promise, plus this was a special occasion, he might have actually interrupted the process of conferring rewards and asking Hideie.
