A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Chapter 619 25. Kai Fei’s Sword Hunting Order

Unless you have seen it with your own eyes, it would be difficult to understand that a dead child of fourteen or fifteen years old was jumping and flying among the dead, carrying a blood-stained head with a hideous face.

Honda Tadakatsu captured Itagaki Nobunori. After all, he was also the original Takeda clan general, so his contribution was certainly not small. What's more, the military merits of the Warring States Period all depend on the head, and ability alone speaks for itself. Naturally, he was extremely excited to win over Itagaki Nobunori. After all, he was still a child.

Kai Ichikui ate dozens of artillery shells, and was attacked by the army again. Xiao Ping Tai's center blossomed, and he was finished!

Old and young, the crowd is like catkins in spring, scattered everywhere, like mindless flies, running around. After all, these are not the battle-experienced Army A. In the past, Army A was defeated. The experienced ones just looked into the ravine and dug into it. You can't catch them at all, just like mountain monkeys.

Today's Yikui people are much worse off. They are strung up by straw ropes and sent to Kofu. Those who were rich asked their families to use the money to redeem their people, and those who had no money were sent to the Kai Kurokawa Gold Mine to contribute to the finances of the Yamauchi clan.

"Heihachi! Don't hold the head in your arms all the time. Just wait until His Highness arrives before presenting it to you." Mrs. Xiaoping couldn't stand it anymore. The dead child was holding the head and the big treasure, giggling there.

"How long does it take to arrive at the main hall?" Honda Tadakatsu put down the head reluctantly, and Tadakatsu Honda's face flushed with excitement.

"Come on, have you seen Mrs. Xiaoping?"

"He seemed to be chasing Aonuma Sukebei. I saw him abandon his horse and head into the mountains." Although the dead child was talking to Xiaoheita, he kept staring at the head he was asking for. It was as if he was afraid that he would run away.

"Why didn't you go after it together?"

"He said that I had begged for my head, but he hadn't yet, so I was not allowed to fight with him!" The child raised his head and recalled it.

"So he went alone?"

"Uncle Chuma (Sakakibara Nagamasa) caught up after him."

It shouldn't be a big problem if his biological father comes to watch. Otherwise, if something happens to the dead child, Xiaoping Tai will be heartbroken to death.

Why do you feel there is ambiguity in this statement?

Forget it, shook his head, and Xiaoheita led a group of Takeda Rianji to pay homage to Yamauchi Taro.

The Yamauchi army slowly passed through the Suwa Gate, and some of the reserve troops had dispersed and began to search for the collapsed Ichikuzu. Only our team and Xiao Hetuo still stayed at their posts and did not leave.

The last bit of Kai's country's essence was lost at the mountain pass in Sasao, and it would be basically impossible to organize anything in the future. All that was left was to slowly appease and cultivate with the people. After a few years, Kai completely changed his surname to Yamauchi.

Entering the Yamauchi main formation with flags flying, everyone nodded to Koheita. After all, it was Xiaopingtai's final decision to lure the snake out of its hole. Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that this time it is completely done.

"What a great victory! Danzheng." Isshiki Miyauchi greeted Xiaoheita with a smile.

"His Highness's magic soldiers descended from the sky, and they were able to defeat the entire group of people in one fell swoop. This is just a small amount of merit."

Put a pony on the second pony below Taro Yamauchi and wait for the heads of each reserve team to be sent for inspection and the report of the arrests made by the generals. In addition, the Hatamoto Senren under Koheita's command will also rejoin the team and return to the command of Yamauchi Taro.

The joyful cheers of victory echoed around the mountains, infecting everyone in the team.

The dead child Honda Tadakatsu was the happiest because he finally had the opportunity to present the head he had obtained. Heiroku was right next to him, and he didn't care about the dirt. Seeing that his son was so excited, he didn't know how to clean up his head first. I had to help him deal with it hurriedly to avoid it being unsightly when presented.

"Heihachiro is uncle Dansho's tachiji, right?"

"Yes, he is also the adopted son of Mr. Hamamatsu, who follows Ubei Kawabe."

"Kawabe Uhei? That's the Heiburo Kawabe who captured the village alive during the battle of Kawanakajima last week." Isshiki Miyauchi seemed to have remembered something.

"He also used iron cannons to shoot Itagaki Suruga in the battle of Uedahara. His official rank, Ubei Second Lieutenant, was personally performed by Xian Gongguangyuanden."

"Then it's true that a tiger father has no dog son!" Isshiki Miyauchi nodded repeatedly.

After all, it was an old thing ten years ago. Many people present had no idea about it. For example, Yamauchi Yoshiho and Yamauchi Taro could only understand it through oral accounts.

"Honda Heihachi asked for the head of the Itagaki clan and was given fifty taels of gold and a letter of appreciation." Isshiki glanced at Taro Yamauchi, weighed it, and announced the reward.

"Thank you, hall!" Tadakatsu Honda beamed with joy as he received the gold on the wooden plate, as well as the words written by Isshiki Miyauchi and signed by Taro Yamauchi.

After that, the rest of the heads were delivered one by one, and Sakakihara Yasumasa finally ran back with a muddy face. Aonuma Sukebei failed to escape after all, and became the dead soul under his sword.

As for Takeda Nobuo, he was also very heroic. Seeing that his defeat was certain, he found a ravine and committed hara-kiri. The retainers who escorted his head back home were captured by the army, and his head naturally became a trophy.

"This time, the Takeda family has failed in one fell swoop!"

"I feel that in order to completely avoid future troubles, we might as well take another strategy!"

"Huh?" Yamauchi Taro tilted his head and looked at Xiao Heita.

"Issuing a sword hunting order in Kai!"

"All residents of Kai, including farmers, monasteries, temples, shrines, etc., are ordered to hand over all their swords, guns, bows and arrows, iron cannons, and armor. The Yamauchi family will exchange rice for half of the market price."

"The meaning of impeachment is to completely eliminate the possibility of Kai Ikkui!" Isshiki is an elder statesman in the palace.

"That's right! Exchange some grains and rice first, and if you don't comply, they will be forcibly confiscated! The inspectors will go to the countryside and conduct household checks! Don't let Kai have a single weapon in the wild!"

Fujiwara Danmasa used this tactic to kill everyone!

Now it is just to ensure that even if another Ikui attack occurs in Kaibi, those Ikei people can only turn trees into soldiers, raise poles into flags, and even fight against the officers and soldiers with bare hands. In fact, it laid the foundation for the Yamauchi clan to exercise strong direct rule in Kai in the future.

Now, Kai Ichikui has just been pacified, and the army in the mountains has gathered in the Kingdom of Kai. The only few thorns have already anointed the blades of the mountain. If the sword hunting order is not implemented at this time, when will it be implemented?

"It is indeed a wonderful plan for long-term peace and stability!" Hokahata University was the first to express its approval.

The generals of the team agreed, and Yamauchi Taro immediately ordered wooden notice boards to be erected throughout the streets of Kai. All residents of Kai were ordered, even those who had previously served in the military service of the Takeda clan, to hand over all weapons first, and then dispose of them after the Yamauchi clan had completely stabilized Kai and reorganized the military service.

This order takes effect immediately, and requires all the officials to contact each county within five days. Then the county officials and prosecutors will go to the countryside to verify, and those who disobey the order will be thrown directly into the Kurokawa gold mine!
