Reincarnation Life to Toyotomi Hideyoshi Beginning with the Adversity of the Successor of Tai Chi

The post-construction Castle of Castle Island was a relatively new castle created in Tenzheng 11 (1583).

Built on the natural embankment of the Tsukuba River, it plays an important role as a base for protecting the post-construction and pre-fattening borders.

It was once the castle of Mr. Nishimuda, a minister of Ryushin Ryuji Temple, and oddly enough, the army of Sorin Otomo had attacked it.

At that time, the generals of the two armies were Tachibana Dao Snow, Tachibana Somo's adoptive father, and his real father Takahashi's introduction luck.

And now that position had been completely reversed.

Now attacking this castle is Naomi Hot Island as a Dragon Builder.

And as a Tachibana family, it is Guiguang who protects it.

But the size of that army is completely different.

Compared to the time, the soldiers in the castle were about three hundred, much the same. But the Takahashi Takahashi Army used to be about 5,000, whereas the Hot Island Army is now 15,000...

In this battle, the difference in force is fifty times greater.

In historical fact, Masahiro Nogami, the castle owner and head elder of the Tachibana family, was sometimes away, and without just half a day, he would fall into the castle lightly.

But not at this time.

Because there is Guiguang Traditional.

Keio On October 12, 5, after delivering a letter from Hideyoshi to Somo Tachibana, Hiroshi entered Castle Island immediately with Masahiro Nono, the castle owner.

Therefore, at the time of the increase, when he instructed the two children who were in the castle… Homo and Yabui to become auxiliaries to the extensive activities, he officially nominated Homo as the castle cost, and returned to Yanagawa Castle with his heels.

It should be noted that there are two other boys at the time of the increase, but at this time they are both on the coastal guard of Tsukagakawa River and are away.

And the vast and frequent that missed the increase in time was taken from knowing the inside and outside of the castle in order to get ready for the interception quickly.

Aside from castle equipment such as gates, moats, and moats, outside the castle such as the terrain and features around where the castle stands, and inside the castle such as artillery, arrows, number of soldiers, morale, number of princesses and children, etc., they went around to check details.

The Castle of Castle Island was small in size and a castle that I did not see fit to protect for a long period of time against a large army opponent.

But if the time to protect is short term, please…

"If it's a day, we might be able to protect it, even if the big army pushes us over"

I thought about it so widely. And in Hideyoshi Toyotomi's order to "postpone the opening of Tachibana at all," the meaning of just one day seemed important.

There are several reasons why he thought "I will have a day".

First of all, the location.

The castle is surrounded by wetlands on the western side by Tsukuba River, so there are only a few places where attackers can march.

Next, power.

And the morale of the three hundred soldiers placed in the castle is so high that the daily workouts from the time of Masano the castle owner can be questioned, all of them forged.

The iron cannons in the castle are about a hundred, and the bows and arrows are well equipped.

I could say enough power to fight.

And finally, it is a post-war escape.

Already the princesses and children had been transferred to Yanagawa Castle in the main castle, and even if surrounded by the castle, it was possible to focus on attack and defense until the fall of the castle, in a situation where we could only think of our escape.

When I learned about this situation, I was impressed by Hiroshi Hiroshi, the head of the Tachibana family.

But even with all this readiness, Hiroshi had an intuition that once the great army had gained momentum, it would last half a day….

The castle and the force are, so to speak, "local forces".

Only this "local power" is in place now, and that alone makes it impossible to protect this castle from the great army.

And multiplying that "local power" is the "measure".

What is now missing from Castle Castle Jojima is its "measure", and "measure" is nothing more than what is often sought after by Guiguang.

However, he cannot think of strange measures such as Kuroda Rushui or Maida Yasuo Shosho Chang-yuki that would drain his enemies and allies.

Honestly, he could only think of "legitimate" measures, so to speak, based on the experience he had fought or seen.

But when the "experience" was in his case, it was spectacular, very different from that of the ordinary man.

It should be noted that he has even repelled Higashimaru by standing caged in Kamajo Castle, where the castle owner who guards Honmaru and the guardian who guards Higashimaru turned to his enemies, showering a fierce artillery attack from the roof against the army of Nobunaga Oda who pushes him, and burning Higashimaru, who turns over, with his own hands. That magnificent history of war, that's all we can ask.

Now that he had seen this castle, it was "Prep Nakamatsu Castle" that came to his head.

Of course, the magnitude is so small that there is a difference in cloud mud, the Castle of Castle Island is small.

But there was something in common about the location surrounded by the river, and he had to wonder about the attack on Takamatsu Castle by Hideyoshi.

Because if he were told to "name one of the most respected people," he was the one who cut his belly off Takamatsu Castle on his back, Soji Shimizu.

As the guardian of the castle, the noble figure of Soji, who remained faithful to the end and fought through without a single step toward his great army opponent, remained clearly in his brain more than a decade later.

... and then one "measure" turned his head on him.

Of course, the "Hideyoshi attack on Kanakamatsu Castle" was the basis for that "measure".

Hideyoshi chose "water attack" in doing so.

He filled the perimeter of the castle with water by cutting off the surrounding river for more than ten days and looking at its compatibility.

As a result, the castle was so isolated that it had to use boats to travel to and from the castle that it could not even be attacked.

If you try it as an attacker, it led to cutting off the supply route to the castle and preventing the ambush of the defensemen, but if you return the back, the attacker can no longer attack the castle.

This prevented Hideyoshi, who was "ready for fire", from attacking him, and as a result he put together peace negotiations that made significant concessions.

In other words, being surrounded by water is the ultimate defense to defend the castle in the short term.

However, it should be remembered that Castle Castle Castle is a branch castle.

If, like the prep Nakakamatsu Castle, it is completely buried in the water, and the defensemen are unable to leave the castle and poke behind the enemy, the castle will be worthless.

That means "not worth attacking" even as an enemy.

We must definitely avoid that.

That is, the attack is to surround the surrounding area with water while leaving it as a guardian ambush...

That was the answer to the widespread "measures".

I promptly consulted with the brothers of Babu and Yabu.

Then his brother, Buddha, answered it.

"If that's the case, why don't you just leave around the gate and fill the north and south of this castle with water.

Originally blocked by Tsukuba River to the west, and deep moats to the east, yet surrounded by double walls.

The north and south of this castle are stretched with fields, so it will be possible to immerse them in water as soon as the waterways are often stopped. "

When Broad Tradition nodded loudly to the word, he gave instructions to his brothers.

"Hmm! Let's adopt that plan!

Now, may I entrust that to Lord Buddhist Guard? I was wondering if you could ask the soldiers of the castle for help with the work.

And Lord Yagami, gather the boat that was placed in Tsukagakawa in the castle as soon as you can. "

The brothers, aware of the instructions, jumped to work immediately.

"All you have to do is hope it works... but still have a day or not..."

Maori Masencia's smile comes to mind when she was in Fufu Kurumi Castle behind her weak broad and traditional brain that way.

"Hope must not be forsaken..."

When that one word aroused his feelings, I could see that the weak bug had disappeared somewhere.

"Strange stuff."

Broad Traditions twinkle like that, with a grin in his mouth,

"One more twist of the 'measures' to make the hope so strong that it cannot be abandoned."

And he looked around the castle again.

………

……

It was not long before time had passed and we had a morning of destiny as we proceeded to prepare as best we could.

19 October…

Within this day the castle falls into the hands of the Pan-island army, and the next day the clash between the Tachibana army and the Pan-island army begins in the Eighth House is a historical fact.

Shift that back a little bit...

It is a widely imposed proposition to have a castle for more than a day, with about fifty times the difference in power.

"I did everything I had to do. All we have to do is hope and welcome our enemies!

And, when he told the brothers of Hoba and Yabui, the younger brothers also tightened their faces a lot.

There is a sound of blowing the law coil that marks the beginning of the battle.

Probably what the Hot Island Army blew.

It was the last recommendation, "If we open the castle now, we'll leave each other unharmed," but the soldiers of Tachibana who defend it show no signs of upset bareback.

Once again, I admire the breadth and breadth, which are reliable soldiers to make.

And it goes without saying that the sound of the magic spine was the one that marked the opening of the long awaited Great Standing Circuit of Guiguang.

Finally, the "Battle of the Caged Castle of Castle Island" was cut and dropped.

◇ ◇

Firstly, what jumped into the eyes of the Hot Island Army was the ambiguity of the castle, arguably fantastic, as if it were floating on a lake.

The soldiers of the Hot Island Army, who had proceeded as furiously as they had lost the momentum of Haizu Castle, but their feet stopped perfectly in front of Castle Island.

Is it because it is still early in the morning… inside and outside the castle is quiet and only a few birds can be heard?

It has a formation called Katsumo Hot Island, Mauri Hot Island as deputy general and staff officer, Maozhong Hot Island at the vanguard, and Kotsu Goto at the next vanguard, the number of which is about 15,000. The army stopped moving in front of a castle with a different atmosphere.

Due to the wetlands around and the lack of small heights, Katsumo set up a main unit in a relatively good scaffold a short distance from the castle.

From there, however, it is possible to come to the appearance of the main circle of the castle, but the state of the march cannot be confirmed by the eyes.

So Seung Mao decided to wait for a report from Mao Zhong, the vanguard.

If the entire castle was surrounded by water and had no attackers, they were going to desist from attacking the castle.

So much so that the lookout came to report.

"I say!

"Hmm, how was the castle?

"Ha! I never asked about what was going on inside, but outside the castle it was flooded with water.

But only the road near the Great Gate is a little tall and you can manage to get through!

When Mauri looked reluctantly at the report, he inquired about the object.

"What's the width of that path?

"I thought it was about three people."

"That's thin..."

If you are an oligarchy in the castle, it will be possible to go out of the castle through its narrow path and ambush you.

But it's too narrow for the Great Army of Hot Island to leave it to momentum to kill to the gate.

In other words, it meant "it is difficult to attack, although it is a situation that must be attacked".

"Lord Mauri, how are you?

and the young Seung-mo asked Mauri, a staff officer.

"If there's any chance I can grab my back even if I keep doing it right, there's nothing more to it than attacking..."

"Then this is not how it is brought about.

All right, let's get two Goto guns in front of us, and fire at the main gate and toward the gang first!

And then you break down the gates all at once and make your way to the castle!

"Thank you! I will tell you soon!!

That's right. The look that lowered his head quickly rushed to the front.

Confirming the condition, Seung Mao went to Maori, staring at the castle with a harsh look on his face.

There, I can't feel any leeway when I drop Haizu Castle.

"Lord Mauri, may I ask you one thing?

"Why should I?

"I hear the castle has the castle owner Masahiro Nochi away, but is there anyone else under his command who can protect the castle firmly?

The question was something that Mauri felt too.

The handiness of filling the perimeter of the castle with water in a short period of time, and the eerily quiet inside of the castle…

Anyway, it just seemed like someone who wasn't the only one in charge of the castle in front of him.

"Come on... that doesn't even make sense... but it's just plain... so don't take it so deeply, let's attack first and see how it goes.

We don't have much time here either... "

"Oh, you're right."

It was the two of us who were bringing it with our mouths as such, but there was something in our hearts that didn't clear up, something like anxiety swirling.

"Before Father gets here, we have to do something about it."

It will probably be this evening that Katsumo's father, Naomi Hot Island, arrives in the land.

By then we must always drop the castle and reassure my father...

Seung-mao had sworn to his heart that it was his mission to continue to live up to his father's expectations in order to recover what had caused him to fail in Sekigahara.
