Chronicles of The Hardships of Komachi in The Sengoku Era

Late December, one thousand five hundred and seventy-six

A month passed from the sweep declaration of the enemy issued by Nobunaga. Static army trends visible from the outside don't look ready for how much.

That's because the soldiers of the Shizuko Army roll out to the city in groups and continue to eat and drink day after day.

The nature of the army prevents everyone from taking a vacation at the same time, taking turns going out, but still seeing movement on an unprecedented scale.

There's even something in the Oda family that slaps the pussy when the Shizuko army is playing around, and from the outside, there's no reason to be confused without knowing what's going on.

But no matter how flashy the soldiers are playing, the preparation of how much is steadily underway. Large quantities of munitions will be collected and distributed to all locations in accordance with the plan.

Special training was imposed, especially on generals sent to Kofi's country during the Eastern crusade, and exercises were repeated to familiarize them with new equipment and unprecedented rules.

In order to exude stress in harsh training, special allowances were paid to encourage drinks on vacation, thus also showing up as a move that appeared to be a massive prodigy.

Looks like your gear's ready.

Shizuko shrugged as she watched the report that was finished with the inventory (grated) (making sure the numbers on the documents matched the actual item).

A report on the procurement of arms, but it is not the soldiers of the Shizuko Army who use these arms. It was the Jingshengs who used the weapons on the paperwork now in Shizuko's hands.

They are flashy decorated from a distance and at a glance to support the special task they perform.

It was commonly referred to as "there was a lean" fit, and the first time I saw the weapons to be supplied, the scenery caught my face, in contrast, the concurrence was shining like a child's eyes.

"Looks like you got your braided boots fixed, too. Because Kofi needs to be careful with Japanese schistosomiasis, it's a must-have, but it's even less breathable than regular boots, so it's troubling."

Shizuko takes her eyes off the exceptionally dear armor cabinet (the special container used to carry armor) and strokes her braided boots with her hands as if they were jungle boots if the modern man sees them.

Available in various sizes, even thin iron plates were planted on the toes, which had a sophisticated functional beauty.

Even the Oda Army does not have the concept of a controlled gear where everyone wears the matching gear, and we can see the heterogeneity of Shizuko trying to unify even to the point of a soldier.

When it comes to common foot gear in this era, it means wearing foot pockets (every time), wrapped around leg ties (chahan) and grass shoes.

However, this equipment cannot be expected to be waterproof, which can be fatal when it comes to marching to Kofi's country.

The country of Kofi is home to Miyairi Guy, who serves as the intermediate host of Japanese inhabited schistosomiasis. By contacting the water, this myari Guy releases Sercaria, a toddler of Japanese inhabited schistosomiasis.

In endemic areas, Myayili Guys, who have even extended their habitat to land, are sometimes even swarmed by windows of dwelling brightness.

In other words, if there was a myari guy in the grass wet in the morning dew, he could be invaded by a Japanese schistosomiasis.

A braided boot was provided to prevent this. It features an area called a shaft that covers the ankle down to the knee.

Resin-coated canvas is used in the shaft to thoroughly protect against water, making it an extremely breathable piece of equipment.

Even to this point, gaps exist because they are footwear. It was the 'gum tape' that modern people would naturally see developed to compensate for it.

Due to its sturdiness and convenience, it is made of fabric gum tape. After coating the resin with a cloth to prevent moisture from penetrating, it took the form of an adhesive application.

Naturally, the precision of the workmanship such as that of modern times cannot be achieved, so it is much thicker than the gum tape we see, and once applied, it is difficult to peel it off.

However, nevertheless, the usefulness of the gum tape, which can be conveniently used to repair or fill gaps, cannot be questioned.

As a result, the adhesive used in this gum tape is strong adhesive at room temperature, but is vulnerable to high temperatures, and water insect control can be combined with regular boiling and heating in hot water to peel off each boot.

"Where to rest, I'm sorry. Kamikuro Oda arrived earlier."

"Okay."

Shizuko, who was reading the report, was informed of the arrival of an early horse by his first name. Shizuko, who raised her eyes from the documents, receives and expands the text that the horse was carrying earlier than her last name and proceeds to read it.

If I summarised the contents, I wanted to talk to you, so I wanted you to take some time. Since there is already movement regarding the Eastern conquest, there should be no need for consultation at this time.

That said, since the other party is the next owner of the Oda family, it cannot be approximated.

Moreover, it has taken the official form of a visit by sending a hint rather than a courtesy, and even if it is a greeting, it will require a corresponding standard.

Furthermore, because the contents of the consultation were unclear, Shizuko decided to run away to collect materials related to the conquest of the East and materials related to her own army so that she could handle whatever she was consulted about.

"Um, I might be left alone in the boulder. I wonder if we need to call the head of the crime scene."

There was no indication that Shinzhong wanted to consult even after loading the plan table for the expropriation of the Eastern Country and the documents containing the issues of concern, etc.

So Shizuko thought that if you're actually the person who runs the scene, you might have a visible problem.

Request to appear before Chang Yuki Maida, who is overseeing the spy at the beginning. It is the main fall that disrupted the scene with unscheduled actions, since the priority above all should be the conquest of the East itself.

Still, the day after the request was made, there were all the people in the position to be said to be in front of Shizuko, even though they were putting together Chang Xiao himself and the two of them.

Since even Shizuko's face cracks, it interferes with his work, so other than Chang Xiao, he meets with a mask on.

"First of all, thank you for responding to my sudden request. Thanks to your efforts, our army is able to proceed with the plan in your favor. I know it's going to take some hard work, but please keep it up."

At the aperture best, Shizuko expressed her apologies to Chang Xiaoyi. The Interceptors literally dive into enemy territory with their lives at stake and bring it back after gathering useful information.

Thanks to the fact that they are Shizuko's eyes and ears, they can detect the danger beforehand and combat it, and they can effectively poke at the weaknesses held by the enemy.

That said, because the middleman is thoroughly behind him, none of his beings were known and admired. Even Shizuko and Nobunaga, who are aware of the importance of information, cannot honor them with distinction.

Nor do they want it. To become famous to them is because it leads to their own death. He had remembered in his liver that honor was to be sent to Chang Xiao, their leader, and not to bathe himself.

But still, because man is an emotional creature, there is no way he can be happy to be offered an apology from a heavy town like Shizuko to face.

They were trembling with gratitude as they lay face down. By then, the status of the public in general had been kept low.

Because the idea was spreading that those in power in positions to use them were the only ones who feared the most, and that they would have trouble being generous and empowered poorly.

But even though Shizuko wove in those risks, she still decided to take advantage of them. It is also due in part to the fact that a dog who strips his teeth from state to state has as much power as it can solemnly purify against a master who treats him more favourably than anywhere else.

"Now I want you to tell me what concerns you about Takeda and Hojo's recent situation. I don't care if the information is less accurate, if you can report it with that in mind, I will account for it every time. Don't be afraid, feel free to share your opinions while you eat."

With that said, Shizuko hits her pampered cedar hand, and the signaled families line up their desks and dishes. Everyone got to their seats and Shizuko declared impolite waiting for the meal to finish.

Each intermediate head was bewildered only at first, but the tension gradually eases after watching the leader Chang Xiao laugh and drink a lot and converse with Shizuko in peace.

Other than Shizuko, a small amount of alcohol was also served, and when the banquet had a fever, everyone's mouth became smooth.

"This isn't a complete backup, but it's fairly certain information. It looks like Umesuke is in contact with Tokugawa's side here."

"Hmm. Speaking of Hole Mountain, Takeda Family Spectrum Bill's minister, a corner of the Oichimun crowd. I wouldn't even ask if so many big men would go inside Tokugawa, or if there was a discord with Seung-yu, who is a contemporary, but sure?

Hole Mountain has a proven track record of betraying victory and insight with Nobunaga even when it comes to historical facts. However, I was skeptical of the current situation, where much discrepancy was emerging from the historical reality situation, and of the betrayal of Mount Hole as Shizuko.

Anyway, a lot of people have decided before the war, so there is no way that he will be generously treated where he has betrayed us now. Being a double spy who pretends to be inside and explores information on the Oda side is cumbersome, so inviting them inside is not a good idea in itself.

Above all, Takeda is a sacrifice that informs the public that the Oda family is the president of the Takeda family. It would be more propaganda effective to defeat a slightly fuller formation of Takeda than to discuss worn out Takeda.

"That's why it's Tokugawa Way. The Oda family has no gap to get into. But if Tokugawa-sama..."

Seeing what Shizuko is trying to say, the intermediate head speaks for himself. It is true that if the Tokugawa family, which also has wide doors open to its enemies, there will also be eyes where Hole Mountain will be used.

"I see. The Tokugawa family also have competent ministers, but you just said you wouldn't feel comfortable if you were still looking to hegemony"

Instead of throwing oneself into the uncertain odds of a missouri as a hole mountain, he is obliged as the head of the hole mountain family to retain his blood muscle. Even if it is bad but not adopted by some listed companies, it may well be assumed that a two-part listed company can be active on the front line.

If the Tokugawa family actually held Takeda's chief minister, it would definitely work in favor of taking control of Kofi's country. Useless friction would be avoided if Mount Hole, which is also familiar to the people of Kofi, became the focal point.

And for Tokugawa Jiayang himself, it is easier for competent warlords to assemble by showing the metric of heavy use, even if they are capable or enemies.

"Though it is at your discretion that Hole Mountain plans to do so, the differences about Takeda territory after the war will not go as far as you think they are."

It is Nobunaga who is proclaiming and taking the head of the Eastern conquest to a large extent. Jiayang is only named assistant from his alliance with Nobunaga, and if he does poorly, it's even possible that they won't cut with Takeda.

Furthermore, the connection between the Oda family and the Tokugawa family has become so strong that it cannot be imagined from the rest of us. I thought it was a separate company with no capital relationship, but would it be easier to tell if it were in a position that resembled a group company completely incorporated into the supply chain?

It is close to the relationship between the United States and Japan if it is perceived as a modern nation. As the rhetoric goes, "If the US sneezes, Japan will catch a cold," the Oda and Tokugawa families are already inseparable.

Even if the Tokugawa family flies an anti-flag against the Oda family, the difference is that both the already dominant territory and the holding power were even economic forces. We can't just observe those situations from the closest to Shizuko as a point of contact, and act in a detour as the Tokugawa family.

Anyway, even being suspected of being beneath us can be detrimental. Especially since they don't follow good promises. There is no doubt that they are watching the opportunities with Tiger Sight (Koshi) and Tantan without replacing the Oda family.

Given the circumstances so far, it is expected that the likelihood of the Tokugawa family welcoming Mount Hole is quite low, regardless of whether the then Mount Hole understands it or not.

"Though I don't have the authority to speak to HR elsewhere (approx.), is Hole Mountain the pawn I want until I take the risk of buying the upstanding?

"We need to change it from a folk grass lifestyle because there is an example problem (about Japanese schistosomiasis) when it comes to Kofi country. It would only be harmful to the former ruler's chief minister, who wanted to follow the precedent."

"Right. Leaving them to betray and throw them away would be a bad idea, and it would be a smart way to break negotiations in the first place."

Furthermore, more than marching together, environmental pollution equal to the curse of a country of merit has been described. And Jiayang, who has struggled harder than childhood, had the distinction not to slap a big mouth like "you can't do it, but I would do it better".

Although this dialogue is frequently spoken of by leaders even in the sad modern era, it is not to say that there is nothing but a handful of people who have actually achieved results. Even matters that seem easy if viewed from the outside, if they are actually to be done, the corresponding blurring exists.

"Let's keep it at my place for a while about Hole Mountain. Please let me know as soon as you get some back. I will try to talk to you well from me. It would be nice if Tokugawa-sama had some kind of consultation with you, otherwise it might have a slight impact on the eastern conquest."

"Dear Sir!? Well... I can't get enough evidence without grabbing Hole Mountain himself..."

I couldn't help but worry about my head. In the past, Nobunaga has unverified vague information and vice versa, cutting off important information without exception.

It is proof that Nobunaga attaches so much importance to information, but from the moment it was seen as a ruthless figure. It would make you smile that it is better to be feared than to be insulted from Nobunaga.

"Information has something called freshness. As a theory to Buddha, it would be more pleasant to report with certainty of information than to spend time with a disciple (mischief) to obtain certainty. He is rigid and resolute, but he is not a narrow master. Priority is given to profit over emotion, and if it is useful, it will never be imitated in a way that treats it underneath."

"Ha ha."

"Please pay greater attention to the trends in Hole Mountain as a policy for the future. If the back connected to Tokugawa can be removed, no further surveillance is required. If, on the contrary, you find that the negotiations have broken down, please terminate the surveillance."

Because it was before important, precautions were taken in case, but Shizuko was optimistic about the matter. As far as Shizuko is concerned, Jiayang is undoubtedly a competent person, because he is not a dwarf to misjudge in this degree of phase.

Perhaps not far away, the negotiations with Mount Hole will break down, and Mount Hole, who gave me a disappointment, will explore another place to accept it. It was Shizuko's perception that she would have difficulty occupying an important position within the Tokugawa family, but would not mind leaving it otherwise.

"Let's say this is good as far as Hole Mountain is concerned. Is there anything else?

"Ha, actually --"

When Shizuko spoke again, the other intermittent heads began to raise their voices and lively arguments about whether the case of Hole Mountain had become a calling water.

Shizuko herself, dressed in formal attire after organizing information about Takeda and Hojo and being fully prepared, welcomed Shinzo since he was inspired by Shinzhong.

Speaking of loyalty on the other hand, I thought I appeared flustered alone without even taking a confession, and I said that there was no clapping.

"Seems like a long time ago, is today some kind of celebration?

Shizuko, who at first failed to understand the Word of Faithfulness, aroused feelings of flux and anger. Shizuko tried to slap Shinjo on the head as if scolding a kid who played a prank, but Shinjo, who works out every day, puts himself on a piece of paper.

"What to do, isn't it dangerous"

"I'll give you a formal payment, so you won't have the grace to give me a proper reception, will you?

"I see, did you receive that? That Shizuko was spilling her stupidity when her father suddenly pushed her from day to day, until she made a heads-up. It's between you and me. It's a tough format. No need."

"... ok. Then you don't need dinner because you're not the next owner of the Oda family, you're the bad neighbor."

"It's a shame to waste what you've got in the corner, let's just say thank you."

The two moved to Shizuko's private room as they tapped each other lightly. The meeting was initially scheduled to be suspended while Shinzhong was in his seat.

(12) There are no talents or small names in the next room, but Shizuko and Shinzho are alone in this room now, and Shinzho opened his mouth when he sat facing the digging torch.

"I will say that I am the next Lord, but that's right, my father is a good winner too. The bowl doesn't come around for the time being. Give me a break for tough responses."

Unexpectedly cold, Shinzhong puts his jaw on the torch ceiling, trying to dive into the duvet and take the warmth. Shizuko gave Shinjo a bitter look at the condition, while peeling the honey citrus peel from his hands, which was served in a cage.

Shinzhong receives it from a duvet with only one hand, subdivided into one room at a time and thrown into his mouth.

"It's better to have a period of proficiency like this than to be worshipped by the Lord all of a sudden, right?

"Sure. But I get sick and tired of searching the bellies of the people whose skin of greed sticks out. It's useless only for people who try to push a sidecar like that, so I can't bear to end it."

"Right. But in the world of Tahei, where there is no need, there will be a rise of people who can do such a thing. The martial arts officer might be pushed away by idleness if he's bluffing, right?

Even in historical fact, under the Toyotomi regime, clashes were seen between martial and civilian officials. Though some aspects of Tokugawa Jiayang's attempt to overthrow the Toyotomi regime fueled the conflict, the militants (factions in charge of military affairs) and the rulers (factions in charge of government) countered each other and deepened the conflict.

Kato Kiyosei and Fukushima Normal, the hallmarks of the militants, become smoky (dull) as the unification of the heavens by Toyotomi Hideyoshi progresses, depriving them of the opportunity to play.

Meanwhile, the rulers represented by Sansei Ishida and President Konishi demonstrated their presence by assuming responsibility for the internal affairs of the regime, gradually becoming important.

It is only ironic that Tokugawa Jiayang, who led Mandarin to the collapse of the Toyotomi regime and took heaven, will also later haunt his mind about the conflict between the militants and the rulers.

However, unlike the Toyotomi regime, Tokugawa Shogunate did not take care of itself because centralization centered on family well-being was being pushed forward, and the conflict could be fought through power.

"How would Shizuko accommodate the conflict between a civilian and a martial arts officer in the visiting Tahei world?

"Well, a martial officer who is proud to have stood up for his life gives him the visible reward of territory, and not the official position instead. On the contrary, I wonder if the rulers would reassure and equalize their identities by giving them positions and positions instead of giving them territory"

You were interested in Shizuko's answer, Shinzhong releases his words after eating a bite of honey citrus broken in half.

"People's greed is limitless. If you got territory, isn't it common for the world to want to get an official position next?

"Of course it will, but if you want both, you have to show your head on both sides of military and political affairs, right? It makes sense that in Tahei's world, the importance of force decreases. Instead of living in the glory of the past, those adapted to the new era will survive." Survival of the fittest is nature. "

"Hard on an old soldier who devoted half his life to fighting."

"If you get both territory and official position and become immensely powerful, it's dangerous because power and authority are extremely concentrated. Especially since the territory is not given to the individual, but to the house, if the successor is foolish, he will give birth to the Dark One."

In Japanese books up to the end of Edo, it was common to show qualifications in official positions and ranks. Even during the Warring States period, the rank conferred by the Korean court was used as a great nomenclature to govern the territory.

One of the most famous of these is Kanto Kanakanlei, which is owned by the Uesugi family. Kenshin Uesugi has attacked Hojo several times for this position.

Even in modern times, the influence of property (territory) and title (official position) is great. Something that has gained an undesirable status often causes problems.

"Though he deserves to destroy himself, it will ultimately be the inhabitants who will be sacrificed"

"I see. If the people riot, they can destroy your house because of it."

"Akagi's way of doing things is revolting, right? It's a well-used hand, but if you step in by cheap means to be involved in the taking of life, you'll get a painful hand back."

In the Edo period, when the Tahei era lasted a long time, attendance shifts and seals were carried out in order to sharpen the power of regional masterpieces, and home demolitions were rampant on the grounds of failure to govern.

"The more important everything is. Overdoing it causes social anxiety, but people in the vortex don't realize it, so it's a problem."

From Jiayang, the first generation of Tokugawa Shogun, to Jiayuang, the third generation of General Jiayuang, went around crushing the great names of the Toyotomi system in order to anchor the ruling structure by the Shogun.

If you destroy your home, naturally the minister who was eating the locust will lose his support and become a wanderer and become displaced.

Being a wanderer, they seek a place where they can serve again, but with the exception of those with extra talent, it becomes a gateway payment. Some of them abandoned their samurai identities and gave themselves up to peasants.

The dissatisfaction of the people who were treated with this kind of treatment became superficial due to the strangeness of Qing 'an and the strangeness of the acceptances to the shogun that caused it.

These incidents will create a climate of dislike for a revolution that relies even more on force, and will support a policy shift from arbitrariness to civilisation.

"No, don't do it for me. At this rate, I want you to be my assistant."

"I'm not on track. The king is always lonely, because it's up to you to make the ultimate decision."

"Isn't that good? Sometimes even I want to rely on someone. Concerns about Takeda have disappeared, but Hojo is difficult."

Shinzhong's concern about Takeda was Princess Matsushi, Shingen Takeda's five-woman relationship, which he had deepened more through the sentence.

The exchange of sentences, which has been interrupted since the First Eastern Conquest, will resume on the occasion of the appearance of a non-standard courier named Hualing Gong.

We can tread the path without a way alone, deliver the text of fidelity to Princess Matsushi without anyone ever finding it, and even bring back a reply from her.

The two topics inevitably converge on matters relating to the Second Eastern Conquest. An unexpected hand was reached out to the two young men who were flirting with the prank of destiny that made each other enemies.

The hand of salvation is delivered in the form of a letter to the faithful. The sender is Katsushi Takeda, and it is far too pitiful to involve Princess Matsushi in our enemies in the not distant future.

In front of the hostilities, Princess Matsushi made herself come to the temple of Ebayashi (Erin), also Shingen's Bodhisattva Temple, and the winning side picked her up.

There is no denying this suggestion of victory to Shinzhong and Princess Matsushi. Whether as a victory or a defeat he suffered, he was also a reincarnation hand capable of keeping Takeda's lineage in history.

"What about Hojo... could it be that Shibata-sama is involved?

Shizuko inquired of Shinzhong, who frowned. Shizuko's questioning seemed to be shooting Masako (Seikokoku), and Shinzhong stiffened herself as soon as she heard Shibata's name and pushed her silence.

I guess even as a loyalist, I regretted that I had leaked weaknesses that I was never going to show to Shizuko, my sister's precious.

Seeing how Shizuko looked at the situation, Shizuko sighed unnoticed by Shizuku. It is troublesome for Shinzhong to be a heavy minister of the Spectrum.

It is a steep vanguard to the aforementioned militants, and there is also a great deal of trust from Nobunaga, such as falling into the General of the Hojo Crusade in this Eastern Crusade.

From the position of successor to Nobunaga, Nobunaga is placed in the general general where Nobunaga oversees the entire Eastern conquest, but the lack of martial arts will be where Nobunaga is most aware.

"You can't tell me not to be aware, can you?

"Whoever I am as the successor to my father will be ashamed of you."

"We're going to have to work hard on this Eastern crusade."

"Wait! I've put my shame on you so far, can I have one piece of advice?

"There, see. I want to hide in the dawn of the unification of the heavens, regardless of the power struggle within the Oda family..."

"There's no way Shizuko can hide away! Even daydreaming is terrible."

"No, no, you should be able to hide if you leave home abandoning secularism to boulders!

"Beyond having the means to be vulgar, they just take you back when you leave home. While your father's eyes are black in the first place, you won't be allowed to leave home."

"... even if you leave home, you can easily imagine pushing me to the temple."

Shizuko quietly dropped her shoulder when she could foresee a future that would swing to Nobunaga even when she left home, as Shinzhong said.

"But as Shizuko put it, he raised his martial arts to counter Lord Shibata, and eventually the rise of the rulers awaits. I have already seen signs of conflict between the militants and the rulers, and by then I must show credit even in my political capacity."

"If you want help, Katsuzo, do you want me to take you? He stands out for his push, but his pinnacle is only in brainstorming."

"You're a culturalist with that word and deed. Those who do not know the longevity well are suspicious, but Ah he also has a fast and flexible idea of his head spinning. But I prefer a solution that depends on violence that's easy for everyone to understand, so I look like a violent person."

Changkao, a regular violator of military regulations, but also roars the literary people of Kyo if he chooses tea water, which is the cutting edge of the epidemic, and takes a brush. Furthermore, I am surprised that chanting Japanese songs is not inferior to the best.

"With that said, you don't seem to see who you are?

"Seung-zo? He's hanging out with Kyung-soo, saying he's going to put himself in a dead place."

"Right..."

Shinzhong secretly prayed for the safety of someone who might be able to help himself.
