When the surface of the Akami Naokai shakes

Astronomical Twenty-third Year (1554) Mid-July Takashima, Omijiang County Decaying Wood Valley Decaying Wood City Takerumaru

"... seven, eight, nine, ten!

The bare gesture of hitting down from the top was over. Ten slaughters next.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten!

My breath rises. Don't get tired, it's pretty tough on a six-year-old's body.

"It's going to be fine."

"Grandpa"

There was a grandfather in the hallway. Watching me nicoting bareback in the garden.

"I'll take a breath if I do it ten more times"

"Right."

Now it's ten times the reverse.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten!

My arm feels like it's cramping. I sat down in the hallway, wiped my hands and wiped my sweat. The month of July is over, albeit early in the morning, and it's hot. Your grandfather sat beside him.

"Thanks for your hard work, drink some water."

"Uhm."

The young lady arrived as soon as your grandfather raised his voice to "someone”. When I ask for water, I leave graciously.

"Takenaka Maru, Saito Dozo of Mino are hiding."

"Right. The public will be losing their power."

“I guess so," Grandpa nodded.

Replace it and it's confusing. The Lord has to focus on domination, control of the realm in order to consolidate his feet. I can't do it for the time being. Not really, Mi-no. In the past year or two, the battle of the Nagarakawa River will take place when Mizo is hiding. In that case, Mino and Ozhang are hostile. It's impossible to use Mino soldiers more and more.

This battle of the Nagarakawa River, Yoshiryu, hated by Dozo, is said to have killed his younger brothers and taken Dozo for fear of abandonment. I wouldn't call it a lie, but I don't think that's everything. The Battle of the Nagara River has a slightly more complex background. It is my belief that Mi-no-takeover of Mitsuzo and Nobunaga Oda of Ozhang have something to do with it.

Dozo was quite impotent in taking over Mino. You would have had ambition, but you also thought you couldn't do anything to protect Mino from the outside enemy unless you were at the top. But the rebellion of the Lords of the Nation against Way Three was terrible. Mino's Lords of the Nation acknowledged Mr. Saito's dominion of Mino, but not Mizo. I think that has become a hiding place for Road Three.

Dozo didn't hide, I see he let him hide. Naturally, there is no real power. If I had real power, I wouldn't have been expelled from Inayama Castle. Dozo was forced to hide and banished to Shiyama Castle, that would be the truth. It can also be seen how strong the disgust of the Lords of the Nation against Dozo was that Yoshiro has changed his surname from Saito to monochrome after the Battle of Nagarakawa. Yoshiryu wasn't the only one who wanted to forget Dozo. Mino wanted to forget Dozo.

A woman brought water. Yum! I felt like I was back. After your grandfather confirmed that the woman was leaving, he leaned back and spoke to me in a low voice.

"It's still harmony."

"Mm-hmm. I can't fight more than the public doesn't have their own soldiers"

"The situation in Kyo is neither acceptable nor impossible..."

"It will take time. It also costs money. We just have to go to temper."

Your grandfather sighed.

Use the public house in the palace. That's what my grandfather and I think. One aim is the Kingsguard. Kingsguard is Yoshihui's mother's home. The current lord, Haruji Kinei, is Yoshihui's cousin, but Haruji later changed his name to "Hisa". Nobunaga and Kenshin Uesugi are deeply involved. He has been in the position of Minister Kanbai Left in the Morning Court since this spring. My father, Kimbai, is also extremely close to Yoshihui. Move that Kingsguard through the Torii.

The other one is a regular samurai. She hits my grandfather, the daughter of Yatsuo Hitoi, which means for me, she hits my aunt. And the Crown Prince, Fang (Ka) Jen (one), is spoiled by the Prince, and has one daughter. The Queen of Spring is my age. In other words, the Torii family is deeply involved with the Imperial Family. Can't you do something from there? Unite the will of the palace and offer harmony to Yoshihui...

Of course Sanoko, it may be ignored by both Yoshihui, then it involves Hexagon, Asakura and Hondo Temple. Soldiers won't have to let out. They'll let out their mouths. They must also be unhappy with Yoshihui's request. If harmony is achieved, you won't have to be bothered by Yoshihui. There is a chance that it will work. I think so...... It'll take some time.

In the long war, the public households are in distress and vulnerable to money and things. Decaying trees have shiitake mushrooms, sake, and soap. I also have a machete. I don't struggle with gifts. But that's not enough. We need South Barbarians, porcelain from China and Korea, and other rare things. You need money. I need more money. I need to make money for a lot of money.

... I don't know exactly how much what I'm doing makes sense. Maybe Yoshihui will return to Kyo even if I don't do anything. But there can be no return by force, I think it is return by harmony. Then someone must have moved in harmony. But there are no signs of movement around Yoshihui. Then I think the decaying tree with the connection to Kyo moved...

That was a mistake. Knowledge is skewed toward Ogi and Mino. I don't know anything about Kiuchi. Especially before Nobunaga Ujiro. I'm pretty sure Yoshihui went back to Kyo more than he was killed in Kyo... but I can't help thinking about it.

"Grandpa, I'll step on it again."

"Well, don't push it."

"Uhm."

When I went out to the garden, your grandfather went back to his room. Horizontal, reverse horizontal, ten punches at a time. I thought about Way Three as I waved the wooden knife. Forget the bad stuff. It's time for fun reasoning.

The exiled Dozo wasn't supposed to be funny. But there were other people besides Michizo who weren't happy with this situation, my daughter's son-in-law Nobunaga. Dozo and Nobunaga were close. In the course of Nobunaga's Taiwanese unification project, Dozo assists by lending soldiers and so on. He was the best collaborator for Nobunaga.

I would have relied more on the clans, ministers, etc. who took hostilities and pulled all their legs. As long as Mi-no-san was there, Nobunaga was able to extend his strength to Ogi without worrying about Mi-no-san. I was able to concentrate on the unification project. Nobunaga after Dozo's death takes the form of Saito, sandwiched by Imagawa. This situation continues after the barrel narrow, until an alliance is formed with later Tokugawa Jiayang. I would have had a hard time.

There is no doubt that Dozo appreciated Nobunaga. But there must have been plans to cooperate with Nobunaga. First, as long as Nobunaga grows, the border of Nokoo will stabilize for that matter. Mino will be at peace, he will be able to appeal to his diplomatic achievements. And the other is that by keeping the system of cooperation with Nobunaga close, you can expect Nobunaga's assistance in the unlikely event.

In the unlikely event that the foreign enemy is not the only one, there must have been a domestic anti-road trinity in mind. It's no use trying to have a coup, because Nobunaga is in Oozhong, that's how I wanted it to be. But in reality, there was a coup d 'etat before Nobunaga got bigger.

What did Dao San and Nobunaga think in this situation? I think you worked together to defeat Yoshiryu and consider restoring Way Three. And Yoshiryu took the lead. That would be the truth about the Battle of the Nagara River. So Nobunaga tried to help Dozo. It's not because I'm your uncle, it's because I thought Mizo was an important card for the stability of Ozhang and the smooth development of the unification business.

Alternatively, Yoshiryu was severed by mistake, saying that he was connected with Nobunaga Oozho to exclude Dozo, a domestic destabilizing factor. It is also possible that my younger brothers, who could finally be my rivals, have also been wiped out.... Well that's a shady story either way. Yoshiro Saito, I'm not a man who wants to get too involved.

Astronomical Twenty-third Year (1554) Mid-July Fujitaka Hoshikawa, Akigiya, Takashima County, Omi

"Let go!"

When an order was given to scream, a roar sounded as if to strike it off. With it, the horse burst and hissed. The rehearsal ground instantly made a hell of a noise. I heard a sigh from the neighborhood when I was stunned.

"Still no horses."

"Still better than before. Somewhat used to the artillery, I guess. Better than that, Grandpa, the bullet's off the top. I'm not gonna talk about it."

Shouji Minbu and Young Maru Takeshi are talking. We're both sinister in our expressions. Which was the sigh? I was allowed to be present at the Decaying Wood family's training. The sound of thirty dozen cannons shooting simultaneously is awesome. The horse in the training area was so surprised that it stood still. A large number of humans are trying so hard to contain the horse.

"The bullet's off the top! Aim better! Stand tight!

A loud, magnificent man reprimanded the artillery unit.

"Goro, you seem to know the guard."

"Otherwise I'll be in trouble. I put the artillery squad in charge."

Shouji Minbu said satisfactorily, but Young Maru Takeshi felt like he deserved it. Is that man Goro Weimen?

"The artillery team wanted to do it by the left gate?

"I'll leave the spear squad to that one."

"Lord Takenaka Maru, why is that? I don't know Goro, I don't know Gomen, I want to know why I chose them."

Lord Takenaka Maru looked at me.

"Is it a reason? Nothing in particular. Strongly speaking, the artillery unit has never been properly operated. I just thought the sophisticated Goro guard would be better."

"Left."

Sure it is...... Lord Takenaka Maru is looking at the artillery unit. They're ready.

"Stand up! Finally, aim.... let go!

There was another roar and the horse made a noise.

"You didn't miss it this time."

"I guess I'm used to it. The horses are quite a bit better than they were earlier."

Well, the confusion isn't as good as the beginning either. The horse calmed down immediately. The artillery unit is in preparation again.

"The artillery is powerful, but it takes time to prepare. Shall I help you on the battlefield? We don't have enemies coming at us while we're getting ready."

The artillery has major weaknesses. It's going to take a while to get ready to fire the next bullet after shooting. There is nothing you can do to be pushed against your enemies during preparation. Otani's passive reasons for aligning the cannons can be expensive, but they are also hard to use. It's weak, but the bow is easier to handle.

But in this decaying tree, we actively incorporate artillery. It is said that Lord Takenaka Maru is in progress, but I don't think it is just because of the rarity. We all know that we are toddlers but not just toddlers. It's not just my talent as a militant. In recent years, the abundance of decaying trees that attracted the attention of the surrounding area was brought about mostly by the Takenaka Maru Temple.

Lord Takenaka Maru does not answer. Instead, Lord Shaosho of Minbu answered.

"Daisuke, Takeshi Young-maru seems to see it as quite effective in cage castle warfare"

"Is this Cage Castle Battle?"

Sure, if it's a cage castle battle, the artillery units are protected by the castle. So the artillery is a defensive weapon? If you're a national lord as small as a decaying tree, and an offensive hard castle, you'd be even more effective... Lord Takenaka Maru took one step, two steps forward.

"Goro, guard! Let them snipe in pairs!

"Ha!"

Goro Weimen ordered the soldiers to do something. A soldier with an iron gun leaves in three servings. The sound echoed at the same time as the voice "Let go!". Compared to the sound of thirty dozen cannons, it is nothing. The horse is calm, too. When the soldier who finished shooting lowered, another soldier left in three servings instead. The sound echoes again with the order “Let go!".

"Shao-suke Minbu, what kind of training is that?"

It's a sniper.

"Sniping?"

"Dear Left, The fold of the cage castle is aimed at the samurai general, the head of the object, in pairs of three. I'll kill you for sure."

"It's..."

Suspended, Lord Takenagawa Maru turned around.

"Do you think it's cowardly, Daisuke of the Army Department"

……

The young Takeshi Maru smiled when he was holding his mouth back.

"There are about fifty cannons in this decaying tree. If you do, you'll be able to form about seventeen sniper squads in pairs."

"… seventeen"

"Seventeen samurai in one, thirty-four samurai generals in two, lose their heads. Let's confuse the enemy. No matter how many soldiers there are, it won't be easy to drop the U.S.S. crowd, Decaying Wood Castle."

……

It was not unfounded to say to Sanhao Sun Shiro that even 30,000 won't change the answer. Had the three good forces surrounded Decaying Wood Castle, they would have inflicted tremendous damage. Sanko Sun Shiro's face must have turned pale.

"Interpreted wars and other killings. Then the body structure, etc., is fine. Whether they say cowardly or dirty, they win. That's all we have to do."

That being said, Lord Takenakamaru turned his gaze to the artillery unit again.

Astronomical Twenty-third Year (1554) Late July Takashima, Omijiang County Decaying Wood Valley Decaying Wood City Takerumaru

I can't sleep. It's hot and I can't sleep. This world is terribly hard to live for humans accustomed to the modern civilized world. I can't adjust the temperature first. Tokoton in hot weather, Tokoton in cold weather. Sleepless nights continue even in late July. Umzari. Besides, it's dark at night because there's no lights. And since there's no entertainment, there's only room for sleep at night. It makes sense to have lots of children's homes. The degree of development of civilization and the number of children are not inversely proportional.

It's time to ask the storekeeper to buy new rice again. I wish I had a rich crop... It would be better to build more sake mills. There is also a need to increase the number of shiitake mushroom cultivation sites. You couldn't do the nappy cloth, no, I can't do it, but it doesn't extend to Echigoku. It's not a luxury item, it's inside. There is also demand because the prices are low. In other words, it sells thin profits. The people were happy to have a new industry, but as far as I'm concerned, that's a shame.

All you can expect is cotton yarn. Lake Biwa, and the young, narrow bowmen want cotton cloth. They make it a sail for the ship. I'm surprised they're now using straw (straw) knitted (rather) or asbestos. is heavy and perishable when wet by water. The anesthesia cloth is also vulnerable to mold (mold) and is not hard and stretchy. That's where they put the cotton cloth. But hey, production is low and demand cannot be answered. If we had more territory......, we'd have a sigh of relief.

"Wake up. Come on?

I heard a voice. Strange, the next room has a place to stay. It's bedtime, so you can't possibly not notice. Are you out of your mind? But I heard it clearly......

"The inmate is asleep."

It's not my fault, there's someone in this room. Maybe it's sneaky. I squeezed the sideways. It is the samurai's understanding to keep their weapons beside them even when they are asleep. I didn't know you would use it...

"You stay asleep the whole time?

"Rest in peace. I'll wake up in the morning."

I don't feel bad about my voice. Doesn't seem harmful. What do we do? Wake up. But see if you can see them even when you wake up. Trouble, get up. I woke up physically but still didn't see him.

"What can I do for you? It's not peaceful to break in at night."

"Forgive my disrespect. Someone named Hirozo Kurono."

"It's Decaying Wood Bamboo Young Maru. So, what can I do for you?

"I was wondering if you could hire us at the Decaying Wood House."

Can you come in at night and hire me? Apparently, they're extra crazy people. Trouble is, I didn't hate those people. Why don't you listen to me?
