When the surface of the Akami Naokai shakes

Tadashi Okazaki Castle Sakai, Yasushimura, Hamada County, Migawa, early August (1571)

"What have you done, my lord?"

In a room at the corner of the castle stood one Lord, Jiayang, silently. The room is lined with small pieces of birthday celebrations delivered from the neighborhood. The Lord exhaled howlingly.

"I envy Oda and Decaying Wood."

Indeed, the items of celebration from both houses suppress the items of celebration from other houses. The Lord is right. It is lavish. Maybe it's not funny. The Three Rivers were originally poor, but the turmoil of recent years made them applaud for further hardship. I guess I can't be honest with you.

"Both families are wealthy. And for Oda, my brother-in-law, let's be glad that the ties between the two houses are stronger. From now on, if we are to fight Takeda, we will need your help."

I was inspired but mainly unresponsive.

"Miserable, I didn't expect you to get a daughter-in-law from Imawa, kill it, and get a daughter-in-law from Oda..."

"My lord, it will be nothing more."

"I know. I'm not dissatisfied with the fact that I killed that one, the kids, or the fact that Oda gave me a wife. You have to survive. But sometimes I get horribly miserable."

……

The Lord, who watched the celebration, turned his gaze to Noah.

"Left guard, did Non make a mistake? Was I right to leave this river?

He had pitiful eyes, pain running on his chest.

"Independence from Imawa is what we all wanted. My lord only made it happen."

"But in the end, I was to be subordinated to Oda. Tokugawa's independence was crushed..."

"Still, it's better than taking it to the river now. There is now a lord in Okazaki, even if he is still serving Imawa, he may still be in Sunfu."

The Lord strayed from his gaze.

"It's a shame. At that time, I thought Noon was coming. Connected with Oda, from the East Three Rivers to the Far River, and Surugawa, that's what I thought. On behalf of Imagawa, Noon will be the best bow in the Tokai, yet..."

"Your Highness..."

"I thought I couldn't lose. Decaying trees only have one county in Omi. Though he sells some names, he says he won't lose. Yet..."

I saw the Lord bite his lips off.

That time...... Tokugawa might have had better minutes than Decaying Wood just after the barrel cramps. But after the battle of Noda, Decaying Tree began to cut the neighborhood with great momentum. In just over a decade or so, it has reached eight countries: Omi, Young Narrow, Echimae, Kaga, Nobu, Iga, Ise and Shima. But Tokugawa was always taken by civil strife. Imagawa and Takeda got me...

"You're a fool, Left Guard. There's no power in Noon, so there's Tokugawa now."

"My lord, such a thing."

The Lord shook his head to the side.

"I don't need any comfort. If we look ahead now, we can't move on. Non is weak and powerless. So with the help of Oda, I'll keep the house."

It wasn't self-inflicted, I have power in my voice. My Lord is never foolish, nor weak in heart. I was somewhere relieving myself. Imagawa, look for a way for Tokugawa to grow in the fight against Takeda. Difficult but not impossible. If you don't believe that and support your lord...

"Seems like Decaying Tree fights Sanho."

"Ha, I took control of Nagashima and took a trip to Kitakyu. Before heading to Kyo, let's get rid of the worries of the hindsight. Iga is also attached to a decaying tree, forming a form of siege to the capital."

"Dear Fukaori Aide, is Yoshiaki's contention finally settled? Trinity will be desperate."

"We must be desperate for Sanho, but we must also be desperate for Yoshio and Yoshio."

"Right."

The Lord nodded.

Sanhao was in charge of Fukaori and pushed up to the general. But Decaying Tree, Oda, and Uesugi don't approve of it. Its forces span a wide area with the East Sea, Hokuriku and Kanto. It is only part of Sanhao's highly influential Kiuchi, China and Shikoku that we recognize Master Aide as a general. Especially Decaying Tree has a huge force right next to Kichi. It is a major factor that the aide is not recognized as a general around. Sanho can't avoid fighting Decaying Tree any more than he has been responsible for the aid of Ashikai.

Dear Yoshiaki, Yoshiaki is flying to the great names of the countries to take his side. An envoy came to Oda and Tokugawa to send soldiers from Yoshiaki to cooperate with Decaying Wood. A messenger came from Decaying Wood, and he brought a letter stating that he wouldn't mind giving priority to fighting the river now. I guess there's a chance. I can afford to be jealous.

"Now, do you want to see the face of the pigeon? I need to be in a good mood."

My lord said with a laugh.

"They don't exchange well at the end. I wish you good luck."

When I stood back, my lord laughed and nodded, "Uhm," and I headed to your room. It would have been nice if your temper had calmed down a little... We must support you until then. Because it was our minister who recommended that we talk to Oda.

Yonglu XIV (1571) Late August Shimizuishi Yamashiro, Yanaigawa Village, Takashima County, Omijiang

"There are about 80,000 troops the Decaying Woods can move. We put about 30,000 in the realm, and we think the military should move the remaining 50,000 on this expedition."

Chang Kyuro, the words of Lianlong the Left Guard, annoyed me between my reputations. Kowloon Left Gate, who caused the excitement, is awakening. Nice, these sober men are good for staff.

The 30,000 remaining in the territory also includes the seven thousand placed in Takahama and Tsuruga. The majority of the rest will be deployed to Shimizu Mountain. In some cases, it also has the meaning of hindsight. Eighty grand, though, that's a lot more. Three hundred for eight thousand stones of decaying wood, so more than two hundred and fifty times? Aren't you a little bubbly?

The whole army is going from Omi to Kyo.

"Wait, don't you think about splitting up the soldiers and entering Yamato from Iga? Matsunaga is not the only one who can rely on the power of Hayama, he can attract a lot of Mitsuyoshi troops."

Several voiced their agreement with the words of Gondo Yamajo Shosho.

"We also considered that. On top of that, we want to concentrate on Omi and attract Sanoko's soldiers to Yamato by showing them that they move soldiers with false information from Iga to Yamato and Koga."

There was a roar from the other side.

"Is it possible?

"Let's start with something."

Everyone saw my great-uncle in what his great-uncle said.

"The Igas want to do it very badly. The Koga people replied that they would necessarily deceive Sanho into showing it."

Several people are nodding at each other's faces. There is no voice of doubt. It's my idea to use false information. Divide soldiers? I'm not kidding, Yamato has Yoshio. What if he gives you an extra mouthful? I'm sorry to be scratched by both of you.

I'm not serious, Yoshio's idiot made a scene with Uelo, Uelo on his own. I will go up to the surrounding countries, so let the soldiers out, and I will be a general soon enough. The same is true of both the Shogun, who want to return to Kyo and are making noise together. My aide reacts to it and I'm an authentic general, I'm sending a letter to myself or something around me. We heated each other up and now it's the established fact that Uelo is October.

What do you want me to do? Nobody tries to confirm my intentions even though I'm the main one.... Long Island's offense ended easier than expected. The subsequent Kitami slaughter was also quickly completed. It seems that everyone has mistaken Decaying Tree for motivation. No, Nagashima was unexpected and Kita-kun was just already ungrateful. Yet......

I wanted to take some more time. Uehiro was thinking early next year. In the meantime, the Navy is used to dislodge the Miscellaneous People and divide between Kichinai and Shikoku. And Tampa, take the post-Dan side. I was thinking about that. That would have made the Battle of Upper Lo a lot easier.... I don't mean it, I want to stop it but I can't stop it now. If I stop in my current state, Decaying Tree could have some weird rumors about being scared of Sancho or me being sick. If that happens, Watano, one color could be a trinity. Decaying trees have young successors, besides low spectrum bills. If anything happens to me, the decaying trees will always collapse. It's the advent of a huge lawnmower in eight countries, everyone will flock for a share. That's more dangerous.

"Soldiers, gunpowder, lead balls, volcanoes and bows and arrows store in this castle and Sakamoto Castle. The expedition is expected to last about four months, and we've already told the military that there are no problems."

"The duration of the expedition is four months, but in case you think about it, we're going to have 80,000 people."

I heard sighs from the other side in the words of Kyuro Left Guard Men and Yi Right Guard Men. Well, that's unprecedented, like the 50,000 Battle of Upper Lo or the 80,000 men's food. Even the hexagons couldn't do it, and there would be sighs. I want to sigh too, how did this happen?

I told Huihu and Nobunaga that they didn't have to participate in the Battle of Shangluo. Hokuriku may not be able to return at times. Besides, Nobunaga said he devoted himself to the game against Imagawa. You don't have to join us. Hui Hu and Nobunaga have become foolish. Idiots like to push me to the end of the day. I wrote in my sentence that I was sick and tired of the next Battle of Shigeyama, Kita-kun, and Ueno.

You're both sweet, and I got a reply saying I'm sorry I pushed my stupid opponent. But then they're going to trade with Ryukyu, but don't write about getting your sugar, Nobunaga! I know you're a sweetheart! You don't have to write that down. I'll send you one. Humble has also said that he wants Nambu. I need to send the two of you some gin and sugar later.... Something's not right, there's been too much inadvertence lately!

"My lord, what have you done? The colour of your face is not good."

Everyone saw me in the pointing out of Mikura service Hirakuro Arakawa. There's no such thing as a guy everywhere who says extra things. Leave me alone.

"Your Highness?"

"... unwillingly"

Everyone looked like they were in trouble. We all know I wasn't thinking about marching out during the year.

"I understand your sentiments, but Matsunaga of Yamato and Toyama of Kii are also raising their voices to the earliest temple to run."

"I know, Heikyuro"

It's been six years since Yoshihui died. Both Matsunaga and Tsuyama have always fought Sanho. I guess it's tough to be honest.

"Do you have any concerns about this march?

Yabuei Takeyama, a public service officer, has asked anxiously. Everybody's looking at me. Does it make you nervous that the general is unmotivated? You're disqualified, Admiral.

"Yes, well, I think we can win. But over time, it'll be easier."

Everyone nodded.

"Reizo, what happened to the example?"

When I asked him, he said, "Yes," and bowed his head.

"Tsukuba Ikeda, owner of Ikeda Castle, Toshima County, Regent. My word is that I will not send out soldiers in the next battle. Jiro Eden, the castle owner of Eden Castle in Kawabe County, said the same thing."

"Tell him to put it on."

Everyone peeled off their eyes. Heavy storage is also stuttering. It was a little scuffy.

"The next battle will be a battle between heaven and earth. It's not a war where opportunism, etc., is allowed. I don't even know the extent of it. It won't help me in the future in Azuma. I hate fools. Such an idiot would be more useful in the margin if he smashed it. Tell him to put it on the right foot, and tell him that the Decaying Wood Foundation doesn't like idiots."

"My lord, come on."

Sanro Yasuji tried to embarrass me.

"I'm not kidding, samuro left guard. That's what a battle for heaven's sake is. We have to bet on the survival of the house in this fight, and it's absolutely impossible to be allowed to do anything halfway. So tough. Ikeda and Eden aren't the only ones, so is Decaying Wood. I tell you all, if you have to fight more than this, but you lose, you perish. If you want to survive, do your best to die."

Everyone was in awe. I'm not going to say anything big. I can tell if you think of Sekigahara. Half-way or losing is unacceptable. That's why I wanted time. Those idiots!

My great-uncle arrived when I returned to my room after finishing my grand appraisal. I have one man on my way. Except for the fact that his eyes are so thin that he wonders if he is asleep, he is a man without character. Nagato Fujiyashi, one of the three Shinobi who rule Iga. He has power in northern Iga and influence over neighboring Koga. You're supposed to report to me about Tosa and Shimazu today.

"My lord, I'm talking about the Tosa family, but it looks like it's been a pretty painful situation for a long time."

"Right."

"But you think the air in the house has been brightened up considerably with assistance from the lord? Whatever you say, three hundred cannons and two thousand pieces of money. So, this is huge. Especially since the people of the surrounding country have increased the authority of the Tosaichi family by moving Kyoto-jo's words and withdrawing aid from His Highness."

"I see."

I looked at Nagato Shosho as he nodded to his great-uncle's words. I just think he's asleep.

"You'll be fine, big uncle. Major General won't be coming out to Iyo."

Major General is a matter of concurrence. He is in the position of Third Left Kingsguard Major General. Submit to third place, it's a boulder house. Even though decaying trees are making a fuss under the fourth place. In the name of the region, Kitakyu is a special place alongside the sister trail. Though Kitakyu and Sister Trail fell the most.

"Let's be okay with that. We know a house is at stake."

"I hope so..., because Maori Lu Ao Shou is dead. There must be some upset in Maori's house. I can't let Iyo get me out of here because I'm feeling weird."

My great-uncle nodded. Maori's grandfather died in July. You missed me once. Same goes for Sanok Changqing, I wish I'd seen him once after he died.

Let's write a sentence just in case. When I went to Iyo, I said I would cut off the aid. I still don't want to talk about Maori. Iyo is a pain in the ass. Maori, it is a place for the forces of Otomo to fight. And the concurrent daughter-in-law is from the Otomo family. Otomo invited me to march to Iyo a few years ago and I lost my bollocks and came back to Tosa. It was only then that the Long Sect began to blatantly oppress a single article.

"Master of the Long Sect, Yusuke Miyauchi's ex-parents..."

"Yes."

"A piece tied with decaying trees. Is there any chance that Sosuke Miyauchi will connect with Awa's Sanko? There's nothing strange about that kind of movement."

"I don't have one at the moment. My lord, I don't think it's easy for the Long Sect to join hands with Sanho."

My great-uncle shook his head to the side. Nagato..., stay asleep. Pretending, huh?

"Saying?

"An Iga crowd study says that Shaosuke Miyauchi's brother was killed earlier this spring by a man named Sanho's minister, General Kaibe Left. It's not a war. Apparently, I killed him because of a misunderstanding, but Sosuke Miyauchi was quite furious."

What, did you have a case like that? I don't know anything about it over here.

"Big uncle, are we at war?

"No, it is. First of all, the unification of Tosa, that's what Sosuke Miyauchi thinks."

My great-uncle shook his head to the side.

Spring ahead. Before the decaying tree and a strip tied their hands. I haven't fought Sanho at that point. My great-uncle was right, I guess he gave priority to the unification of Tosa. As an ex-parent, I don't want to tie hands with Sanhao if I can, that's what he seems to think. But if we're pushed, there's a chance we'll tie hands. One combination, maybe unexpectedly lucky. The Long Sect is isolated.

"Uncle, you can use it."

My great-uncle said "yes” to my words and smiled slightly.

"What would be of most concern to General Left is the Long Sect. Let's persuade Awa to stay in the next battle because of suspicious movements in the Long Sect. Secretly joining hands with decaying trees against the Long Sect, like a trinity unknown."

My great-uncle nodded.

Nagato-sensei doesn't seem to be asleep because he hasn't rowed the boat.... He's the one, I don't know if he's replacing the statue at any point. Want to give it a try?

"Let Yamen do the invitation to General Left. Awa is the bearer of Yamen, good."

"Ha."

My great-uncle nodded. Nagato Shogun is silent and motionless. I don't know, is this the ninja? I'm having some fun. I'll totally ignore this one.

"Uncle Big Uncle, do you think we can win one article?

My great-uncle looked difficult when I asked.

"You can never be optimistic. Long division, Kosuke Miyauchi, you can also fight, but you are also good at adjusting well. Some places are quite ruthless. I crushed my sister's dowry."

Not surprisingly, in historical fact, he almost dominated the Four Kingdoms. It's not just a beautiful thing to do.

"What can a decaying tree do? Is that just aid?

"Well... speaking of which, I'm a long-time minister, but I think I'm getting money for a deal with Sakami."

"Is that military funding?"

"Yes, if you say no to that..."

"That's big."

The battle costs money. You can't fight without money.

"Nine Ghosts, do you want to use Horiuchi?

My great-uncle peeked into my face. I exhaled unexpectedly.

"That's hard, those two need to contain the Miscellaneous. I can't get around to it."

Nine ghosts from the sea and Horiuchi, and a mountain from land. So I can't move the people of the three good ways of Kii, starting with the Miscellaneous People. The impact on the Trinity should never be small.

"Shiro Ikechi, the head of the long-service Navy, is married to Miyauchi's younger sister, but the couple are extremely evil."

The statue spoke! I was more surprised by that than by the content of the story. My great-uncle is also stunned.

"Are you despising my husband Shiro Left Gate because my parents are the main family?

Now I nodded. It's not the statue in front of me, it's Nagato Fujiyashi. I laughed out of the blue. I didn't know what I laughed at. To the content of the story or to Nagatomon Fujiyashi? It was just ridiculous.

"Send out a messenger, throw away a long ministry and put it on decaying trees."

The two nodded.

"Great uncle, Nagato guard. Rumor spread to Tosa that Ikeshiro Left Guard is dissatisfied with his wife and his wife's home. And even if you take a long-serving woman as your wife, it won't be a guarantee. Use those two axes to hunt down the Ikeshiro Left Guard."

They nodded again.

Are you proud of your parents or want to immerse yourself in a sense of superiority? I'm tearing it apart even though it's supposed to be my job to connect my fiancée to my parents' house. Stupid woman. But let me use the little hole that the stupid woman drilled. Either Ikeshiro Left Gate is killed at the hands of his long-serving ex-parent, or he asks Moringi for help. If the long-service Navy is disrupted, it will also interfere with the deal with Sakami. Only one house prevails for that matter. It could all be a big hole rocking the Long Sect.
