Chronicles of The Hardships of Komachi in The Sengoku Era

Shizuko sent a contact and applied to see Nobunaga.In the present situation, we will break the bones to return the loyalty that has been removed from the core of the East China crusade to the General once again.

With the forgiveness of Nobunaga, Nobunaga will be able to participate in the Hojo attack.Nevertheless, I cannot blame Nobunaga, the master of the Oda family, for refusing his life and causing a great disturbance involving his subordinates.

At least I had to bring some kind of souvenir that could offset the damage I suffered due to my lack of loyalty.

"So what am I supposed to do?"

When she stood up from Princess Matsuko's legs, she asked Shizuko about her loyalty from the front.Shizuko took the documents that Nobutada had tried to steal earlier out of her pocket and opened them to make them look like Nobutada.

"This is the answer to a secret book sent to three competing families in Oshu.You know Hojo is integrating Minoku into his alliance, right?Among them, Mr Yagami, who is the best in Dewa Country, Mr Date and Mr Ashina, who look at each other in Luo Olympic Country, are not close to each other.However, since the main room of the Date Sojiro (the father of the Date Masaku sect, the Heiko sect) is the right-hand princess who welcomed him from the top house, Mr. Yoshihime maintains a balance by connecting with Mr. Hatakiyama in Oshu. "

"Hmm...."

Shizuko complains about her apparently disinterested loyalty.

"I'm not impressed to underestimate the situation behind the shores.Though Takeda and Hojo are the main focus of the Togoku crusade, there is no reason to underestimate the situation surrounding them.To get your head slammed in later, let's start with these three houses in the back of the land. "

"What happened to the three houses?"

"As for the Oda family, it would have been good if any of these three families had complied, but it would have been convenient if Mr Date had accommodated Oshu.Because it is the most enlightened of the three houses and does not stick to Hojo. "

"First of all, you're going to cut off Oshu and eliminate the possibility of sending reinforcements to the Hojo attack."

"Yes, not only here, but also SaTakeshi from Tokorokuni and Satomi from Awanokuni."

"Even if we split the army, we can't attack Hojo because Hojo is sitting between Tokonaku and Yasumoto, right?"

"Do you know that Mr. Nagasobu dispatched the Kuki Navy to Shikoku Heikai?Isn't that a test run for a new weapon?It was a hands-on exercise for Satomi and Satake. "

"I see, because both territories face the sea!"

That reminded me of Faithfulness.The navy led by the Kuki family has made remarkable progress with the technology introduced by Shizuko.The Kuki Navy, named after the Setouchi incident, was told to kick the double opponent away.

The Kyuki Navy was putting into action a power screw capable of advancing and retreating by gear and a landing ship with an armoured version of the hull.

Until now, the common sense of the Sengoku era was that if you wanted to transfer troops by ship, you had to take them by Yasushi (Asukebu) after attacking the port to ensure safety.

However, the landing vessels owned by the Kyuki Navy do not rely on port facilities, and they are able to land large weapons such as infantry and artillery on a single coast.

In other words, the other party does not just have to protect the port, but must pay attention to all coastlines that can be landed. Moreover, the difference in the basic capabilities of the ship is more than twice as great, and it is also disadvantageous in number.

"First of all, I will destroy Satomi at once and invite the upset of Hojo. In the meantime, I will also invade the territory of Sabaku and make the defense of Hojo naked.And I can't move the top, Date, and Tsubaki names that are being abbreviated.In this way, a battalion of eastern nations is approaching from land, and the Kuki Navy has already secured maritime control even as it attempts to escape to the sea.You call this a wolf at the front gate and a wolf at the back gate? "

"From the bottom of my heart, I feel bad that Shizuko was on my side."

Faithfulness murmurs in a gentle tone.If the Oda family were to take control of Satomi, Hojo would be in a state where a blade would be pointing at him.

Sagami Bay is at the tip of his nose and eyes when he seizes the Yasumoto nation at the tip of the Boso Peninsula, and he is able to shoot directly into Odawara Castle, home to Hojo.

"Yes, after all, the composition of the Date family is good.The top house was independent from the Date family, but it has been under intervention for a long time, so it has not lost its influence. "

"What do you mean?"

"The best house is not moderately independent of the Date family.It's not funny to be a Date family where your dog bit your hand.If there's a gap, you'll want to break into the top house and put it under control again. "

"Indeed, my minister took Hasedo Castle and named the people on his own. It's a shattering sight."

"Yes, the Date family has a cause to invade the top house.Besides, the best house still has a minister who obeys his lord.Now that the protagonists are dominant, we maintain a balance, but what happens if we help the pro-Edah here? "

"If the balance is tilted one way or the other, it will collapse all at once."

"In that case, you'll have to ask Sakuma to stop him so he won't bother you."

"What if House Date doesn't move?"

"In that case, the Uesugi family will also turn the soldiers around, and have Uesugi rule the top collar, creating a situation of Mikumi.If the Uesugi family were to attack the top house, the Date family would have to move. "

Alright, this is a response to the Oda siege net!Take Hojo's limbs and surround him. "

"Yes, I've told you so many times.How much you prepare before you start determines how much you win or lose.When you actually cross arrows and blades, it's settled, and you bring it into a situation where it's just an answer.And that's what we're going to need to do. "

In fact, Shizuko has worked hard to gather information thoroughly.As Confucius taught, "If I knew him, I would have almost fought a hundred battles." Information about the enemy was carefully studied not just in the military, but even in the people's lives.

They generate advantages by aggregating, classifying, organizing, analyzing, and leveraging them.

"And this is the key, but I want you to take charge of all of this."

"Are you returning to the position of General General with the achievement of establishing the foothold of the Eastern Kingdoms?"

"Wouldn't it be better to end without taking part in the East China crusade?"

Nobunaga thought a little before accepting Shizuko's question.

Since staying at Shizuko Mansion, Princess Matsuhime has seen my eyes suspicious many times.First of all, it is worthy of astonishment that the presence of the famous warlord hanging his head and begging for teaching is a woman just like herself as the lord of the mansion colored with unprecedented furnishings.

What surprised her even more was Shizuko's attitude towards Nobunaga, her master.

"Hmm... so you want to use your stupid breath?"

After listening to Shizuko's story, Nobunaga stared at Shizuko with a cold look.Although Princess Matsudashi was seated only in the presence of Nobunaga, the pressure from Nobunaga increased even though she could not withstand the harsh air as if it were accompanied by physical pressure.

Shizuko said that she was struggling not to fall down by taking a fine breath while sweating cold, but she expressed her opinions with a cool face.

"Yes, if we seize Sagami's ruling Yasuo kingdom, Sagami Bay would have fallen as well.We can't afford to lose if we can't intercept more than the same number of fleets in the first place. "

"What if Date doesn't move?"

"I will move the Uesugi family. If Uesugi's forces approach the top, they will have to move as a lucky date.If it still doesn't move, we'll destroy it because it wasn't enough to rule Oshu. "

"I knew that Date was the best.What's the last name? "

"If Date takes the top, the remaining names will have to choose between obedience and death.Either way, we can repaint the faction chart behind the shore. "

"Don't overdo it.What about folds that don't get what you want? "

"Even if all the worst happens behind our backs, we'll just flatten everything out with our surplus."

Shizuko replied to Nobunaga's question with water on the stand.For Matsuhime, Nobunaga was afraid to give off signs like a beast, but Shizuko was more afraid to face the beast without cowardice.

Grown up without engaging in politics (festivals), Matsuhime couldn't understand half of what they were talking about, but she managed to understand that the world of incredible schemes was unfolding.

I can now accept that the destruction of the Takeda family would have been inevitable if the wisdom of so many people had made them fight for opinions and decided on policies.

"Very well, but..."

"I understand. I'll let him talk about the main room."

Seeing Nobunaga pointing his face at Shizuko, Shizuko, who drew on his intentions, showed his loyalty.What Nobunaga is saying is that he should withdraw the declaration made by Nobunaga that Matsuhime should be placed in the main chamber.

Genuine room is not only a position of political influence, but also a position of determining the blood line of the lawful stream.In the samurai of the lineage, it is not sane to put the princess of the destroyed enemy in the main room.

Although it was not unprecedented, the Oda family had no reason to put Matsuhime in the main room.

"Father, I have caused you unexpected worries.I would like to give you the opportunity to return the stigma.I hereby withdraw my statement that the pine is to be placed in the main chamber and apologize on my face. "

Nobunaga rubbed her forehead on the floor as if she were squeezing it out.

Shizuko persuaded me against the background of Nobunaga's decision.This is not an operation that we cannot do without loyalty.Rather, it is a great opportunity to give the smoking ministers a place to play.

In other words, Shizuko is given the opportunity by his warmth, but this is in the form of giving away what was supposed to be given to another human being.

In addition, if you push through your selfishness like this, when you make a child between the two, doom will come.The existence that shakes the root of the Oda family will not be allowed, and it will be Kannoyama that will be assassinated both mother and child.

Matsuhime, the princess of the diaspora, has no family to back her up, so she is being pushed into a corner this time.When the option of assassination is on the list, it becomes clogged.

That is why Princess Matsushi had to stay in the side room.And if Nobunaga begged Nobunaga for forgiveness after the faithful had defied the order, it would be difficult to judge whether or not to make that decision.

Since it would destroy the face of all those who broke their bones against a series of disturbances, there is no way they could spit on Shizuko Nobunaga and all the leaders of Nobunaga.

As a result of the above instruction from Shizuko, Nobunaga chose to withdraw her speech.

Nobunaga withdrew his declaration after apologizing to Nobunaga for the series of genuine room disturbances in the presence of the generals.Apart from what was done in the sole seat of the people concerned, apologies and withdrawals were made again in the public place where the generals gathered.

This spread throughout the Oda family instantly from the generals present.And everyone caresses their chest in relief.

Because it was just a parent-child fight, and it was visible that it would erupt as a successor problem from afar and become a bone-flesh dispute that divided the Oda family.

Nobunaga accepted Nobunaga's apology and was declared on a separate mission to support Nobunaga in Hojo's quest.In addition, Princess Matsuko will be kept in Shizuko's custody, and she will be punished for separating until Nobunaga completes all her duties.

It was informed that once all these monsters were finished, the sun cleared and the faithfulness returned to the general of the East Kingdoms.

"I expected it, but it appeared unexpectedly fast."

Shizuko murmured while reading the report.As those who went to Hojo were preparing, a rebellion broke out in spite of the political instability.

Nevertheless, unlike the historical reality, the Uesugi family is subordinate to the Oda family, so the scale was quite small.

Still, the rebellion is a rebellion, and we cannot afford not to be attacked to the castle with the rejection of the Oda family.Nagaoke, who was still crushing the bud of the rebellion, quickly gathered signs and immediately embarked on repression.

Regular telephone calls have reported a more repressive response, but by now the battle will have already begun.

Although the reason for the rebellion is still unknown, Shizuko thinks it is inevitable that those who inflict the rebellion will be severely punished.

"It was good before I transferred any surplus funds or equipment to Ogura.I'm sure we'll have it settled by tomorrow's scheduled contact, and I'll leave it up to the field to punish the rebels. "

Ha.

After telling the correspondent only that, Shizuko left the telecommunications room.The treatment of the rebels is stipulated in various laws, and the masters and participants will pay for their deaths without asking the judgment of Nobunaga.

With regard to these series of incidents, the chief was entrusted with the authority to maintain law and order, and it was not a problem to report that he had punished them at his discretion.

In fact, Nobunaga, who received the ex-post report, is running out of trouble.With regard to the rebel mastermind, the feudal system was applied and the clan party was beheaded.

Those who participated in the rebellion were beheaded without exception, and those who supported these rebellions were severely punished.

Regarding villages that were threatened and provided food, if they had reported the existence of rebellion to the bureau, a reward would have been awarded.Conversely, villages that miss the rebellion will be subject to additional taxes.

It was widely known that these punishments made the rule of the Oda family a prize and a punishment, and that those facing the teeth would be punished severely.

"I thought you said the boulder was the Date family, but there's a vision in the first place."

There are reports from three houses in the back of the road that an envoy carrying a secret book is heading for Ogura.The number of days leading up to the decision was the earliest for the Date family and the heaviest for the Yana family.

Shizuko smiles thinly at things changing as expected.

While reviewing the report, I will repaint the faction map on the expanded map.When the Togoku Crusade is carried out, a large force with huge prints will be formed, and the Oda family and the forces given to it will be known as the best in Japan.

I wonder who the Date family sent in.If you think about it properly, it's around Keihin Endo.

Kishin is now the chief minister of the Date family, and is known for his excellent diplomatic skills.In historical reality, we also negotiated with Nobunaga, Ieyasu, and Hojo, and recommended that Nobunaga interact with Huizhou.

It is highly likely that Kishin himself is involved in this matter, and by delivering a secret book to Naoto instead of a diplomat, etc., the aim is to appeal to Nobunaga and Shizuko for their seriousness.

Either way, if the situation continues to change, the House of Date will negotiate at the tailgate first, and take the first step in assuming the hegemony of the land behind as Shizuko's prospects suggest.

"Hey Shizuko, is there anything sweet that keeps going?"

Shizuko was organizing the paperwork, and at the same time Nobunaga entered the room.Shizuko wrote that it might be a secret story considering that she was not accompanied by Matsuhime, even though she would not be able to see her for a while.

"I will try to assign an additional chocolate bar as a military meal.So what are the requirements? "

"Thank you. It's going to be warm, but it's cold in the back.You can't do it without a delicious behavioral diet (a high-calorie diet that is eaten by snacks other than meals and replenished in places where physical exhaustion such as climbing is severe). "

"Oh, sweetness is a pretext, isn't there something confidential about it?"

"No, it's nothing. At first, I tried to complain about one thing, but when I looked calmly, I understood that the current situation was the best.Because of the imminent danger to the person I care about, I ran away in a hurry, but I should have consulted Shizuko before that. "

"That's right. Remember that there are people around who can help you, even if you're in a hurry."

"Hmm. What I did this time, I thought I was going to protect the pines, but I realized I was chasing them to the ground and my liver got cold.I was proud to be able to see things calmly, but I felt that being a party was difficult. "

"That's what it is. What others are doing seems easy, but it's quite difficult to do.Someone who thinks he's not a big deal is just like me.Do something you think is better than yourself. "

Shizuko was searching the background of those who suggested that Princess Matsuko should be removed from the side room.All this is an act of ambition that is commonplace in this era that wants to send its own blood muscle into the home muscle. It is not praised, but it is not enough to punish.

Some of them were planning to hurt Princess Matsushi and drive her out of the side room, but there was no blame for not moving into action.However, it is subject to constant surveillance by the interlocutor as a person requiring attention.

By apologizing and withdrawing his loyalty in front of the generals, he realized that the flag color of these leaping faces was bad, and the current situation was quietly followed.

"You're going to have to fill the seat in the main room that's vacant."

"I understand that.Sooner or later, the proper room for the family will be sent to us, and we will create a succession.Could the relationship of just having a child be called a couple? "

I didn't say it clearly, but so did Nobunaga, who said that he could not love his wife as his wife.

In this era, there were more such couples, and it was rare for them to like each other and be bound, but still Shizuko wanted faithful people to live a happy life.

"Oh, yeah, that's why you asked for one."

Nh, what is it?

"I want you to lend me Shizuko's maid to take care of the pine.I still don't have a back shield on the pine, so I want to show that Shizuko cares.Besides, there are limits in the world of women that men and I can't get into.... "

"Indeed, her position has been compromised by this incident.Fine, I can't be your guardian, but I'll let you send a maid. "

If you link history, it can often happen that the person who serves you (such as your son, who will eventually become a powerful person) later wields power.

Especially the nurse was a minister for you, a substitute for your mother, and a guardian after she had grown up.

And Nanny's birth child was called a brother-in-law, raised as a servant with you, and often served as a servant with you.

For this reason, Nanny and Nanny's real child were born early, and it was of paramount importance for the maid to know who to serve from these advantages.

But the maids who serve in Shizuko's mansion are different.He was willing to rise up with one of his talents, and he also had such outstanding abilities.

"I won't force you, so why don't you take Princess Matsushi's trusted maid?"

"What if you can't trust anyone?"

"I can't take that much care of a boulder.Heaven helps those who help themselves. "

"Mm, is that what you're saying? Unfortunately, it's not something I can do...."

"Because I serve your princess, I've been promised a world in a way, and I don't think anyone will ever lie to me.Ah, but if I put on a maid, do you think I was behind it? "

"Fufu, I've already taken the word for it.Haven't you ever stopped? "

"Well, I broke this much bone, so it wouldn't be worth it if you guys weren't happy."

That said, Shizuko smiled to watch over her nasty brother.
