Chronicles of The Hardships of Komachi in The Sengoku Era

Mid April, one thousand five hundred and sixty-seven.

Shizuko, who borrowed an early horse and took it back, quickly headed to Odd Maru's bedroom.

When I entered the room, the odd circle lay down and rested.

"Please put a bucket with water in the four corners of the room. And some cold water and a few hand tufts… just get dressed."

Speak that way to the educator who had refrained beside Odd Maru.

"Let Shizuko do what she says"

To the educator who was perplexed by Shizuko's words, Odd Maru so skips his life.

Once he bowed his head, he quit the room and began to give instructions to the bartender.

"Even though I ran on a fast horse, it would be fine in time because I went back and forth"

I should have let him sleep for about half a day, but Shizuko takes out a small bamboo barrel.

What's inside is radishes and honey, or radishes to take when your throat hurts.

Include it in your mouth to soak up the supernatant with a wooden spoon and see additions and subtractions. Since honey was used instead of water candy, it was different from normal radish sprouts, but Shizuko decided that it was appropriate sweetness and water addition and subtraction.

"What is that...?

"Ame Daikon. I actually make it out of water candy, but I didn't, so I made it out of honey. Drinking when your throat is annoying helps."

Enzymes with radishes (amylase, lipase, protease) contain many ingredients that aid digestion or quell inflammation of the mucosa of the throat.

Drink it as is, dilute it with white water, etc.

It's also easy to make and just dice the radishes and then soak them in water or honey and leave them there.

Moisture comes out of radishes after a while, so you can soak up the supernatant of it and drink it. However, since radish enzymes are vulnerable to heat, only care should be taken there.

"... Mmm, that's sweet"

"Well, it's got honey in it. They'll eat everything else. Gastrointestinal function is essential to maintain strength."

"Well... I don't have that much appetite, but let's do something about it"

The educator then came back with the hand tufted and the water in the bucket.

Wipe off odd circles of sweat with a hand tug and make them change their sweaty clothes. Shizuko tilted her neck at what she resisted when Odd Round did when wiping her body.

I'm ashamed to be old enough, but she wasn't aware of such subtle manhood.

"Shit, it's humiliating... what the hell is that anyway?

Odd circles are brought in by Shizuko, who puts his doubts into his mouth as he gazes at what he thinks is made of glass and bar-shaped pinned to his side by force.

"Hmm, thermometer...... 37.9 degrees. I don't know what your temperature is since yesterday, but, well, it's not life-threatening."

"I don't know what you're talking about, but I'm feeling a life-threatening..."

"Well, we'll just have to build strength and cure it. I'll leave the chopped onions on my pillow for now. Add the sweet potato rice for rice and the lowered ginger and green onions to the white water. After that, I think baked plums... nourishment and nourishment are of paramount importance for illness."

"... it's too easy for me to say what it is. On the contrary, I'm getting anxious."

Ginger, spring onions, radishes and satsuma potatoes are good foods for colds, but I don't have that idea in warring times.

The Chinese way of thinking in the first place lies in creating a body that is unbeatable to disease in its normal diet, and there are no more symptomatic medicines like Western medicine.

In the Warring States era, meals are the first thing to fill your belly, and you can't help it because it's a time when no nutrients or other discoveries have been made.

Therefore, from the point of view of the strange circle, we all have no idea why what Shizuko is saying is necessary.

"Stay here and trust your sister Shizuko."

"No, it's not that I don't believe you... you know?

There is no falsehood in that word.

For Odd Maru, Shizuko is now the one who can "forget his loss account and position and talk to him".

If Shizuko were a man, he would have been one of the best friends I could talk to with a crack in my belly.

It was a real shame that Shizuko was a woman in that sense. At the same time I was wondering if this was how we met because we were women.

"It's a strange thing to be on the edge of a person."

Odd circles close their eyes whining about that. The hand plush put on my forehead was cold and comfortable.

With some general carelessness, the consciousness of the odd circle gradually faded.

"Is that it? Are you going to sleep now? Well, okay...... good night, Tea Maru."

The last time the word reached his ear, he fell into a deep sleep.

As for the bizarre circle cough, it was also passed down sequentially to a man on a far away battlefield (Sawata).

"What, Shizuko?

Nobunaga is attacking Saito's castle and Inariyama Castle at the mouth of Minoguchi.

He hears that Odd Pills suffered from cough disease. No, he ordered that people be dispatched to medicines (dullness) and other modern doctors.

But then, a week later, I couldn't get a report on the way to comfort, etc. I wouldn't go this far with the other kids, but for Nobunaga, Odd Maru is the man who succeeds the governor.

I don't want to die of illness right now. Well, when I was thinking about what was going on, I got a report that Shizuko was watching Odd Maru's disease.

"Yes. Depending on the person in the house, there are many strange instructions? Place buckets with water in all corners of the room, chopped onions on pillows… and place orders for meals."

……

Put your hand on your chin, Nobunaga thinks.

According to the report, Odd Maru spoke to Shizuko about his identity when he came up with the idea that his life was short.

Knowing that, Shizuko is trying to cure a strange pill of cough. I thought about what the thought was, but soon Nobunaga reconsidered that the idea was nothing more than an evil inference in itself.

(If that girl can pass the world cleverly, she will never come to me. In other words, Shizuko is' thinking nothing '. I guess I'm simply trying to cure the strange pill cough that's close to me from good intentions)

"Command the men of the house to follow the instructions of Shizuko. Prepare whatever he needs. Tell Shizuko I'll get a full report later."

"Ha!"

After he bowed his head deeply and replied, he returned his heel to preach the word of Nobunaga to the decree.

"Is Lord Shizuko not only agricultural, but also knowledgeable about the disease?"

Kasei Mori groans that way while being slightly impressed.

Nobunaga agreed with the words, but after only a few thoughts, he said this with his fingers pointing to his head.

"I'm surprised at Shizuko's knowledge, but he's not just good here. I believe that his horror lies in the amount of vocabulary that can explain the content according to the target."

Odd Maru, Dan Yu, and then Nobunaga, who had received reports of colors, noticed one thing in common.

Shizuko is knowledgeable, but he says he 'explains it plainly' by pointing that knowledge towards' others'.

Noticed it, Nobunaga read Sun Tzu's military code and other military code books and biography in Nanban again.

Every military law book was much more concise than the others, and then it was assembled in an easy way to understand. Nobunaga thought that there was consistency in the way it was interpreted, and that the elusive parts were annotated as appropriate, and that care was taken to make them understandable to those who did not have a lot of prerequisite knowledge.

"The hall is certainly right. Ask her for an explanation, and she'll briefly summarize the main points."

"That's right. Well, let's leave him alone now. What's going on about Tokugawa's minister in the matter?

"We have already handed over Tokugawa to the Shimomigawa Temple."

"Um, that would be good. I don't want to bother my head with the extra commotion this time of year. It may be loose, but I'll keep it to the point of stabbing the nail in person."

"The wisdom of the Hall, I sincerely think it is wonderful. During the battle with Mino, the worry of the hindsight forces tension."

Situations where you don't know if Mitsugawa is your enemy or ally at a time when Ozhang is thin are very unfavourable to Nobunaga.

In some cases, the difficulty of diplomacy preventing neighboring countries from reaching Mino is attributed to blisters.

Nobunaga therefore decided that he should avoid making things rough in the matter of loyalty.

Ultimately, Nobunaga decided that there was a "non-existent relationship" in which Loyalty Sheng said that he had not been in Shizuko's village and that Dan Yu and Loyalty Sheng had a friendly relationship.

Regardless, Loyalty agreed to this without any objection.

If he wasn't tired of his husband, Jia Hao, than he was, he was willing to drink under all conditions.

"How's Inaya Castle?"

Kasei Mori tightens his expression on the words.

"The roasting of Inouguchi under the castle is over, making Inaya Mountain Castle a bare castle. Now we've finished building deer walls around the castle."

"All right, move on to the next phase. Split up the soldiers at each base. Set ten men in pairs, seven in daylight shifts, three in night shifts."

"Is...?

I could understand even separating soldiers, but from there I don't know what the next order means, Kasei Mori goes against the confusion.

But Nobunaga didn't even care about Kasei Mori's inner heart, and said this with an evil grin.

"Compare your guts from here."

Ryuxing Saito had his men scout Nobunaga's formation, but upon hearing the report, he was severely confused.

Though it is believed that the military is far more advantageous than not seeing nearly half of the ministers who started it, they were all blind to what the remaining human beings were doing.

The man who scouted it didn't know very well, and he was loaded with dirt, but he was digging a hole, and he was getting no guidelines.

The only thing I understood was that Nobunaga was trying to lay a siege net.

Opinions broke into two parts between ministers, whether we should not miss this good opportunity to discuss and leave, or whether we should do a caged castle.

Ryuxing himself was wondering which one to choose.

First, he sent envoys to three people, Inaba, Bube and Mino of Ando, and waited for their response to decide what to do.

Fortunately, the reply came right back. The contents were "It will take around ten days for the soldiers to arrive because they are relative to the Oda army".

This brings me to the conclusion. Ryu Xing took an operation to cage in Inaba Mountain Castle and wait for their reinforcements.

There was no opposition from the minister either. I made the decision that the Nobunaga Army's troop strength was halved because it was attacking Nishi-Mino.

Seems like a judgment with no holes anywhere at first glance, but they had overlooked a small, but never overlooked, decisive change.

Conventionally, Oda's army should cross the Yangryu River to form a formation more than the eastern part of the castle, and use its total strength to attack the castle, but only this time, where was the aim of sending the army in half to Nishimi no as soon as it arrived?

How could the three Mino people instantly answer that they could send reinforcements in around ten days?

One by one is a trivial problem, but the inevitable Longxing faction, derived by looking over the whole thing from the other's point of view, is unaware.

To the fact that we are already in the hands of Nobunaga and driven to a moment and a place of death.

The order given to the minister by Nobunaga, who besieged Inaba Mountain Castle, was extremely simple.

"Seven days of ordinary battles, day and night, rest and repeat to the point where you can actively seek no results and minimize your own army's wear and tear" and "Keep your attackers on the lookout, and keep your days off in turn. Keep your morale on the front line always high", as well as "Change places and create a war zone, so that you can't focus on defense in a comic fashion".

The ministers, confused not knowing the purpose of Nobunaga, but they kept their orders faithfully and repeated the mortal battle.

But it is only natural that the ministers do not understand. Nobunaga didn't see Ryu Xing or anything.

Mount Kim Hwa is a steep mountain with many cliffs. At the top of the mountain, Inari Mountain Castle is a staunch castle with a large number of soldiers.

Moreover, the soldiers have made their way through many training fields. Nobunaga well understood that it would not be easy to destroy this.

So he first moved to crush the fierce men of the Hundred Wars. The operation for this purpose is "Mortal Warfare Day and Night".

Day or night, is literally twenty-four hours. And mortal battles are literally mediocre battles.

At first glance, it seems pointless because this operation has no immediate effect.

But the invisible 'sole' accumulates quietly and reliably to the body, even with skilled acumen.

'Stress' due to constant imposition of extreme tension.

"Sleep deprivation" due to the imposition of a state of inability to sleep safely.

"Insufficient nutrition and hydration" due to the imposition of a state of unsatisfactory diet.

They are more than just people. They are weaknesses to stick with.

If "Sleep Deficiency" continues, it will decrease focus and make it impossible to react immediately to emergencies.

More immune deficiencies make your health worse, exposing you to excessive 'stress' coming from the unconventional field of battle, making it harder to control your emotions.

'Lack of moisture' literally lacks moisture in the body, causing dehydration, heat stroke and hypotension.

Furthermore, the loss of 15% of the moisture held by the human body hinders the maintenance of life activities and, if it exceeds 20%, results in death.

Nobunaga is not that familiar with the human body.

He just knows from experience that it's dangerous to stay hungry and thirsty and sleep deprivation.

Shizuko's words relate to what will happen if the condition continues.

Nobunaga could not determine whether it was true or not, beyond the lack of basic knowledge of the maintenance of human life. That's why I decided to find out if that was true or not in this fight.

(... Now, what happens to the results)

A few days later, he learns that 'Sleep deprivation' and 'Nutrition and moisture deprivation' are very deadly for the human body.

That was the fourth day since the siege of Inari Mountain Castle.

The ministers of the Oda family, who had so far been subjected to strong resistance, realized that the elite counterattack of the Hundred Wars smell lacked glory.

I thought it might be at the time of the attack, but because Nobunaga was stricter than Nobunaga, they repeated mortal warfare while suppressing their feelings of deviance.

But it wasn't until the sixth day that it was suppressed, and on the night of the seventh day, something appeared that went to direct negotiations to get permission to attack Nobunaga.

"Dear Hall, please leave some troops with this monkey. Let's see Dragon Hing's neck in front of you."

Hideyoshi, who arrived at the main unit the most, said so most openly to Nobunaga, who was sitting down.

Nobunaga, who had dried potatoes in his mouth, said this after drinking it down.

"Monkey, I know what you're trying to say. The others will come within it. Until then, sit down and wait."

Hideyoshi, who followed that word, lowers his back to the corner of the main formation.

Then, in about an hour, most of the warlords who were participating in the castle attack arrived at the main unit.

"How have you been doing over the last six days?"

Nobunaga asks that to the assembled warlords.

Most warlords couldn't read Nobunaga's intentions and couldn't hide their confusion, but the warlords opened their mouths to get my will.

"The first day, the second day, the resistance struggled hard to reduce wear and tear, but by the time I counted the four days, I was visibly losing momentum"

"The watch wasn't working on the fifth night raid, so much so that it was the first time I had a reaction after shooting an arrow"

"We have also received reports that there were soldiers who fell as hard as they could in the middle of the war."

When Kasei Mori and Hideyoshi open their mouths, the other warlords speak word after word.

"Somewhere in charge feels the same."

"Speaking of which, I do think I've been slow since about five days..."

"The enemy general was speaking up and inspiring his allies, but the soldiers moved slowly and did not maintain their morale"

"This damage is decreasing day by day."

The warlords have exchanged opinions with the hustle and bustle ever since.

Nobunaga listened to them in silence. Even when presenting the appearance of a half-chaste state, he even listened in silence.

Eventually, in anticipation of the warlords' run-off of words, Nobunaga tells them with a small grin.

"Everyone shall be saddened and depressed. Tomorrow, beat it to the ground."

That was not a clear word, but all the warlords considered that "permission for a total attack was given".

Then nothing happened. The meeting ended, and they returned to their positions.

Immediately after returning, he quickly flies his life to his men and the warlords prepare for a total attack.

Regardless, the attack at night continues as originally planned. Except for the soldiers on the night shift, they were given enough food and rest to prepare for tomorrow.

It is the honor of the samurai to stand up for the medal. On the seventh day they attacked Inari Mountain Castle, they got the opportunity.

All you have to do is grab it.

As a result, they were more carefully prepared than ever before and took great care to ensure that unforeseen circumstances did not occur.

But only Kasei Mori did not change his attitude.

This is what he said to his men, who had been prophesied by the heat around him.

"That's a good idea. But it seems second-rate to rush for merit but overly neglect one's feet. A first-rate samurai disciplines himself from prosperity, and first reaches his destiny by surviving, and on top of that he reaches his birth."

In the words his men realize their shallowness and lay face to face with shame.

But Kasei Mori took control of it with one hand, and said this overlapping with a gentle grin as if to see his son.

"I'm not saying it's bad to seek martial arts. But if he blinds himself to greed, he turns back at times of need. It makes sense that I tend to aim up because of my youth. In the words of the skyman," Abandon yourselves is some of the water that floats. "But I think," Live is some of the water that floats. "Don't be in a hurry, look around and help each other, and live for the next world that your museum will show you."

Kasei Mori, who then lowered his men, spent the evening in an unusual manner, as he put it, to the end.

It was Hideyoshi Kishita Fujiro who was doing the opposite.

While he gathered several of his men, he had skipped various instructions to the vast majority of soldiers.

As the thoughts of each of those enemy allies swirl, comes the morning of the seventh day of Nobunaga's Inari Yamajo attack.
