In the spring of Yongroku 6, many worshippers visited Nagayama village to tell the mountain opening by melting the snow of the approach with a fox fire.

Even if I just glanced at it, it was definitely more than last year, so I was made to realise that the teachings of Inari God were spreading.

I went straight to the foot of the company to have the wolves protect me and share the food with the priest during his New Year's greeting.

But the villagers on the road looked dark, unlike last year, and I realized that something was going on.

"Welcome, Inari-sama."

"Hi, I'm out of time."

The company office where the cushion was already laid will be guided by the witch and raised up magnificently.

Keep your hips down and straighten your posture, and I received the warm tea that came in immediately and thanked you for it.

"How much food?"

"As always, I'll take care of it."

School opens the day after the mountain opens, but your food is untouched.Ask the god only to repair the amount he and the wolves eat.

There was talk of no other love for a while, but I was worried that his complexion was slightly bad, and asked casually whether it was related to the heavy air in the village.

"Actually, something happened in a nearby village..."

Is that all you got?

Speaking of which, he threw a sickle and attacked, or a bamboo spear was a trap weapon.It should have been a video game like that.But I shake my head and shake off a nasty thought, and I fix it to look like a rebellion where the farmers explode dissatisfaction.

In reality, there were many people who were dissatisfied with the life of the Sengoku era, so it was no surprise that they abandoned themselves with a little kick-ass.

"Fortunately, it was suppressed immediately.It seems that there were relatives in the nearby village among those who woke him up.... "

"That's sad."

Most importantly, it was suppressed immediately.However, if my family members were involved, I would be very narrow in the future, and if I succeeded, I would be treated like a village.

"So, how big is it?"

"Well, I'm sure... there were about a dozen people in the village together."

I see, a dozen people?

I accidentally touched my mouth, but because of the misfortune that happened to my family, I weighed myself and kept quiet.I am the daughter of a fox who can read air.

However, on a dozen people's scale, protests are more reasonable than just one.

"Rumor has it that it was always the sect that triggered this attack."

"... is it always a sect?"

It is a traditional cult that does not listen to the teachings of Inari God (False) and recognizes cults.For me, it's a bump in the eye.In fact, it was not a god or anything, and since the contents were the fox daughter of a high school girl, their words were not off the mark.

"So, were those who provoked the whole thing punished?"

"Ah... no, mouth alone is not proof, and I am a great man who preaches the teachings of God and Buddha..."

"... eh?"

What?

Normally the agitators will suffer the heaviest punishment, but they will not suffer any punishment.The skin on the tongue is thick.But if the killer pushes through without knowing it, it's not enough evidence to say it, especially when he's in power.

There were many other reasons, but I couldn't imagine a girl high school student with ordinary contents from there.

"Anyway, from now on, the whole thing will get more intense.

If that happens, no one from Nagayama Village will show up. "

He wants to say that if the flow grows even on a dozen people now, there will be a larger number of endorsers.

Anyway, it was troublesome, and while drinking tea, I somehow asked what I had come up with.

Speaking of which, I heard Ichibana is targeting rice warehouses and lords?

"No, we're targeting Inari-sama, the Great Black Pillar that supports the Three Rivers."

I always thought of the sect as a bump on my eyes, but it seemed to be the same over there.

Moreover, knowing that he had been treated almost equally to Mikawa-sama at some point, it made me feel very complicated.I think it came a long way.

I'm sorry about that.

"... yes"

I knew that this time Kazuichi was moving with the Inari God (False) raised.And dozens of people are just outposts, and from now on, there will be more people and a big wave.

By the way, even though I knew the enemy was coming, I wasn't able to do anything.

Well then, let's stir up the people too.

"Se... are you agitating? But how...?"

"No matter how much you change your point of contact, the only thing that can happen is dissatisfaction with the current situation."

Who likes to live and die and what you want to feel painful about?

In the end, the people are stuck in the status quo, and because it is painful and painful, and there is nothing to do, it becomes a convenient idol such as God and Buddha.But there is nothing I can do about it, so I am abandoning it and spreading it around.… and I think.

Really?

I nodded deeply and affirmed to the inquiry of the Lord.

It seems that it will be extremely easy to die while chanting the Buddha, but now it is worthless to live in this world, and it is equal to trying to bet on Wangchan in the next life.

However, since the Sengoku Period is a living hell and it is difficult to complete life expectancy, I don't have the feeling to entrust hope to the next life.

But if you abandon God, you have God to pick up.For Inari God (false) to save the poor people who seek help from the Buddha of Eternity in this world.It was actually to protect my peaceful life, but whatever it was, I decided to take large-scale action.

"If a person who participates in or plots to commit a crime immediately abandons his weapon and converts to Inarism, he shall not be guilty of acquittal.

Secondly, converts and relatives will move elsewhere, but don't worry.For I swear in the name of Inari God that I will guarantee food, clothing and shelter for the next year.

Three, according to the teachings of Inari God, the annual tribute of the land of the Three Rivers shall be changed to four lords and six people. "

In the spring of Yongroku 6, signs written in this way were erected everywhere in the Mikawa River. By gathering officials, people in villages and towns, the information spread instantly by dignifying the writing with the same content.

In doing so, I emphasize Inari God, but this is also part of the operation.

In most areas of the current Three Rivers, they are ordered to strictly observe the teachings of Inari God (False).At first, even if you are half-hearted or reluctant to obey, it is humans who easily return their palms when visible results are achieved.

Therefore, in the sixth year of Yongroku, the followers of Inari God became a majority in Mikawa, and only those who did not follow the teachings for special reasons.

Mikawa is no longer my home, and I am afraid of pointing a blade at Inari-sama... and most of them are on our side.

But what I didn't expect, too, was that if the Inari Mountain always arrived like this, there would be a whole wave of Inari as a resistance force across the Three Rivers, and the possibility of developing into a blood-washing struggle had emerged.

It was good because I managed to be stopped by the water, but I had to realize that the era when I believed in God from the bottom of my heart was really scary.

Anyway, the operation succeeded, and those who had previously failed to follow the teachings of Inari God (false) were to be moved together with their families and relatives.

It is said that the grass next door looks blue, but if you see the difference in the amount of cloud mud harvested from the village where you live, your faith in the traditional sect, which has refused to follow our teachings, will also shake.

And this time, the temple of the traditional sect who turned the whole thing around, but his face turned bright red to protest, but most of the key agitated peasants converted to Inari gods, and moved far out of reach.

Therefore, I found myself in a situation where I could not move immediately.

It seemed that I had to use the temple's storage to feed my child's monk soldiers, but I deserved it, so I felt no pain at all.

Regardless, the Three Rivers will be quite confused because we have moved people who have converted from the traditional sect to Inarism at once, but it is better than having them wake up on their own.

This time, I pushed into Takumi Village collectively, but everyone said that they were saying thank you to Inari-sama every day, so I was afraid of the power of faith... and I trembled with blur.

The faith of Inari gods grew day by day as they continued to send their traditional associates to Takumi Village, rooted in the people of Mikawa.

This time, I pointed the spear toward the traditional sect, but this is not a joke, maybe the era of Inari God will come.

But I'm not happy at all if that happens.As a high school girl and a common man, I wanted to live in peace.

What makes it sad to be worshipped as Inari God?It is also bad that this is all the Sengoku era now.

I can't even go sightseeing without being ordered to walk out of the house, so it is safest to play Inari-sama behind the mountain, so I'm just doing it.

I was mentally tired at first, so I didn't want to do it much.Recently, however, acting time has become longer.And I'm starting to wonder which one is really me.So maybe it's completely mixed up.

Nevertheless, this is something I can't help but care.In order for me to live in peace, I have to become Inari God (fake)....

Ultimately, it was always successful to cut down the temple's fuse line without causing damage.

In the coming year, the resources of the Three Rivers will be consumed at an incredible speed, but it is better than always competing head-on. If we can avoid losses and reform the territory, we can say that it is the best result.

At the end of the spring of Nagaku's sixth year, Matsudaira-san and the others visited the Inariyama office for the first time in a long time.

"Are you a refugee...?"

"Yes, the medicine has worked a little too well."

Invite them to the main shrine office built in the back of the mountain, serve tea and soy sauce pancakes, and listen while entertaining Mr. Matsudaira.

Gather the people involved in this event in one place, give them simple longhouses, food and clothing, and let them explore the untapped land.This has the aim of weakening the temple by separating the traditional purpose from the people.

The operation went well and always ended in underdevelopment, and we were able to monitor all the people we needed to be careful about.

As they sweat down into their field work, their faces are all bright and their minds turn and they feel a willingness to pioneer.A year's food, clothing, and shelter are guaranteed, but next year they will live with hope every day, as well as in abundance.

Just in vain, we launched a major reform to make all the annual profits of the Three Rivers four lords and six people, and even farmers other than the pioneering villages were motivated.

However, as a result of this being too effective, we have brought new trouble from elsewhere.

Rumors spread instantly that Inari God would save poor people and take care of them when they went to Mikawa.As a result, refugees arrived from neighboring forces such as Imakawa in the east and Takeda and Saito in the north like a tsunami.

Incidentally, Oda and I have an alliance, and since you also incorporate the teachings of Inari God, there was almost no change.

"Still, I can't believe Mikawa-sama was Matsudaira-san..."

"Haha, I'm still a young man."

I always knew when I talked to him about things, but at first I thought he was a warlord of considerable standing.But I didn't think you were doing it at this age.

It is up to me once again to feel that things were strange during the Sengoku Period.

"It is a refugee anyway, but it is impossible to guarantee food, clothing and shelter for all by Mikawa alone."

Matsudaira-san naturally had a difficult face, and Inari declared that he guaranteed food, clothing and shelter, but it was Mikawa who was actually out of money.

If he says it's impossible, there's no gavel, so no matter how much he shakes, the supplies won't come out anymore.

"Are there so many refugees coming?"

"There are over a thousand refugees, but there is still potential for more..."

"... what does that say again?"

Refugees from other territories cannot be prepared to work immediately.No matter how short a new land is to be raised and developed, a year's meal will be wasted.

There is no room for such a large number of caregivers in Mikawa today.

Did you ask Ozaki for help?

"Yes, they replied that they would send support supplies..."

Matsudaira-san's complexion remains poor, so it still seems to be insufficient.You can buy it from a merchant in the form of a debt, but you can definitely see the footsteps.

So I twisted my head and wondered if there was anything else I could do to help.

You can't drive the refugees back because you're pretending to be charitable with Inari in front of you.Such an outrage would throw stones at the believers.

If this happens, we can't help it.

Inari-sama, do you have any good ideas?

Honestly, I didn't want to use this hand, but Mikawa is my home ground and now I have a loved one.I don't want to think about abandoning this place and going somewhere else.

That's why I decided to come home.

"Ask Inari Shrines everywhere for support.

In the name of Inari God, I guarantee that it will be returned in 10% increase at a later date. "

"Inari-sama!... that's it!"

It is believed that if you speak of God and Buddha and commit fraud, the punishment will be inflicted, but if you declare that God himself promises, the effect will be even greater.But if it be a lie, then faith shall fall upon the earth.

But this way, if you don't get poisoned, you'll get to the plate.I'll show you what my abandoned fox daughter will do.

"Inari-sama! Oh, for the sake of Mikawa!"

"There's no time to worry about me.I have to write a sentence quickly.

And we need to make a judge to prevent the disguise of documents, but you did. "

Because I don't have time, it would be good if I had a simple seal, but not only Matsudaira-san, but also the warlords of Mikawa, were influenced by my anger.

"Yes! I'll take care of it! We will make the best judges for Inari-sama!"

It is good to be motivated, so I nod small without water and get up from the cushion.I walked slowly from the cabinet in the office thinking about the ink and brushes and what else I needed.
