Chapter 815: The Curtain Opens

After listening to the plan proposed by Jiro Matsupan, Daming was in deep thought, while Fujido Togaki, who had different concerns, broke the quiet atmosphere and asked.

"Tiyao, please feel at ease. Although I dare not speak wildly about the enemy, if the relatives on Kyushu Island form a coalition force to invade, our Hirado vassal will not be defeated in a short time!"

Jiro Matsupan replied with a relaxed expression, and all the daimyos looked at him with a suspicious look.

Although the Hido vassal is the strongest among the Daemons in this conference, in terms of the number of samurai and comprehensive strength, everyone knows that the Hido vassal can at most gather 3,000 people, of which only about 1,000 elite troops; and the relative vassals on Kyushu Island have as many as five Daemons. If they gather all their troops, there will be at least 5,000 to 7,000 people. However, in terms of the number of troops, the coalition forces are almost twice as many as the Hido vassal. Matsupan Jiro obviously also knows the background of both sides, so why are they so confident?

"You guys, the fall of the curtain is a major matter of the lives of the people present. How could I, Matsupan Jiro, joke about this?

I just hope that if you think this plan is right, then you will act according to the plan.

After raiding these rear routes, while searching for opportunities to spread the news, we divided our troops to come to Hirado along the way. If our army is still confronting the coalition forces, then you can attack the rear route. We will attack them in different directions, which will definitely lead to a great defeat!

If the enemy has been defeated at this time, then you will be able to capture and kill the defeated soldiers and take them for your own use at that time, wouldn’t it be great?”

Jiro Matsupan did not explain too much, but instead made his own requests to everyone with strong confidence.

"Jirou, if this plan is ultimately successful and we will win a great victory, how should we distribute the plundered fields, population and property?

Furthermore, since the resolution is overturned, we must elect a leader. If there is no leader in the group of dragons, it is not a good thing to have chaos at critical moments. What do you think?"

Jiro Matsupan's old friend Mitsumasa Ikeda once again raised two key issues, and other famous people also said that they were all right. Everyone knew Ikeda's intentions, which clearly made everyone express their opinions.

Ikeda Huimasaki knows Matsupan Jiro the best. He knows that this brother of the family, who is ten years older than him, has always been cautious and will never regret it for life because of impulse. Since Matsupan Jiro is so firm, he must have a trump card in hand. So he followed the flow and raised the most favorable question to Matsupan.

The leader means that once the fall of the siege is successful in the future, whether it is a new shogunate or a return emperor, the leader will naturally rise to power and become the leader of the highest power. Judging from the strength and reputation of the Daimai attending the meeting, the Matsupan clan will be unsuccessful. The Matsupan clan will succeed in the future, and the Ikeda clan, who is a family friend, will also benefit from it.

The five relatives of Kyushu Island are named after the name of Daming. Although the land is not very large, no matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. How much can each family add to their names? The size is also a foreign fortune. If this battle is successful, the Hirado family will be able to make a big effort, and the rest of the people will be able to get a bargain. Then, no matter what, the person who contributes the most will suffer,

This matter must be made clear, otherwise, everyone would pretend to be deaf and dumb, and no one would spit out the meat they had eaten. No matter what measures were taken afterwards, it would hurt the morale of the loose alliance. If the shogunate sent a large army to attack, something might happen.

"I Ikeda family is willing to be the leader of Hirado family! If you have any better candidates, please propose them, and we will discuss them again!"

Seeing that everyone had not expressed their opinions, Ikeda Hiromasa made a clear statement.

After hesitating for a moment, Toraki Fujido also agreed with Masato Ikeda. Although the rest of them thought about the huge benefits after the success of the fall of the sect in the future and had some ambitions for the position of the leader, after a brief consideration, they still expressed their support for the candidates proposed by Masato Ikeda. So, Jiro Matsupan finally became the recognized leader of the fall of the sect in the alliance.

"Since you have chosen me as the leader, then the matter of distribution of land and population proposed by Huizheng, I have expressed my opinion again: I only take 30% of each family from each family, and the remaining land and population will be retained by you? What do you think?"

With the idea of ​​repaying love, Jiro Matsupan generously expressed his attitude towards the spoils. As soon as this statement was made, the daimyos here applauded and expressed warm welcome to Hirado's generous demeanor, saying that this is the pattern of those who accomplish great things, and that the fall of the curtain will surely be successful in the head of the leader.

Originally, everyone thought that Hirado family would have to be divided at least 50%, but they didn't expect that they only had 30%. This was beyond everyone's expectations. It can be seen that Hirado family did not just want to govern Kyushu Island, but really wanted to overthrow the Tokugawa shogunate.

In addition to the weapons given to everyone just now, these two things are connected together. Not to mention the final outcome, just this mind and vision are worthy of everyone's respect.

What everyone didn't know was that it was because of the sharpness of the firearm armor given by the Ming Dynasty that Matsupan Jiro's ambitions suddenly became bigger.

Because Zheng Qi had already stated that the Ming Dynasty court would provide follow-up assistance to Hirado's vassal at any time based on the progress of the situation.

Jiro Matsupan and several retainers knew in their hearts that the armor used by the shogunate army was no different from their Hirado clan. The shogunate was strong because it could use more resources and population. However, the victory or defeat of the battle formation was not the number of people. If one army could only be beaten and not fight back, no matter how many people were, it would be a situation of defeat.

The range and power of the Daming musket and bows can definitely make the shogun army be beaten but unable to fight back. After the first few rounds of musket and bows and arrows, the shogun army had no choice but to lose.

After the relevant strategies were formulated and improved one after another, Hiromasa Ikeda proposed that everyone should join blood to form an alliance to show that they would never betray. Then, everyone was sincere or forced to cut their fingers, drip the blood into the wine bowl and drink them separately.

If someone suffers from hepatitis A, none of these people will be able to escape.

After the consultation, in order not to attract the attention of the shogunate patrol and Mebu, the daimyos walked one day and two the day after tomorrow. It took several days before they all left the Hirado clan. The weapons given by Matsupan Jiro were also taken back to the vassal state by each of them as caravans.

A month later, after confirming that the fall of the curtain alliance was ready, Matsupan Jiro ordered that the garrison commander of the garrison should take action.

A patrol envoy in Nagasaki, three Minfu and other members were killed by hundreds of samurai warriors in the Hirado family on a dark and windy night, and only one of them fled over the wall in the dark.

Another month passed, and the Tokugawa family was furious when they received the news. They immediately ordered the proprietors stationed in Kyushu Island to form a coalition force to attack the Hirado family. The downfall incident officially kicked off.
