Celebrating the Evening of October 22, 5 -

Naomi Hot Island, Naomi Katsumo and Mauri were having a discussion while picking up dinner in the same bungalow.

All troops have already withdrawn from the Eighth House, and now they are resting soldiers near the main formation of Gouda.

"Zhongmao is a light wound. I'm so glad."

Yes, Naomi opened her mouth to no one in a calm tone.

Zhongmao Hot Island, the pioneer general on the subject, lost his mind by cracking his forehead due to the blow of Kono Zhenzu's full body, but he soon woke up, fortunately, with a quick first aid for Mao Tsuna afterwards.

Naomi had received reports that her forehead wounds were shallow and she would not return to the battlefield in a few days.

"Yeah, totally. But there is a man named Ono Kazumi who is separated from us.

Even though Tachibana's soldiers have covered him up, he will take such a blow even though he suffers many wounds… "

And Katsumo, Naomi's son, said so with a sigh.

"Um, but it's not just Ono Wazumi.

Tachibana people still have many rigid ones.

When they arrived at Willow River Castle, they thought the struggle was still imperative... "

Now Mauri, the staff member, sighs.

A bungalow surrounded by bitter air...

"If we can just stop the war, we have to let it go first..."

And at the end, Naomi sighed.

It should be noted that it was after noon that Masahiro Noe, the superior elder of the Tachibana family with a letter from Kiyoshi, visited here to appeal for a truce.

But in fact, Naomi had been thinking about ending the battle with the Tachibana army before that.

There are two reasons.

The first is due to the even simple rationale that bringing Somo Tachibana into the field is unlikely to achieve his prospect, and that fighting any more will only result in more sacrifices.

And the other is because his son, Zhongmao, was hurt.

Even in the battle at Castle Castle Jongmao was wounded, but not enough to worry about.

But that was different this time.

Because if I made a mistake, it could have been dead.

And that was an unbearable fear for Naomi, who had lost a lot of people close to her in the war.

In other words, the second reason was due to Naomi's emotions.

That's where the increase appeared.

This is exactly what the ship was about to cross.

But the fact that the Hot Island Army leaves the soldiers unconditionally in an overwhelmingly advantageous situation is something we want to avoid, given our future morale.

So Naomi offered only one condition.

It was, "If we don't open the castle within three days, we'll attack Willow River Castle with all the troops".

When there was a big nod to the condition, he immediately disappeared toward Willow River Castle in an attempt to deliver the news a little sooner.

But none of the three of us in this room thought that Somo Tachibana would open the castle in silence after three days like this.

"If it were an attack on Willow River Castle, it would be a more intense battle than ever."

And, Seung-mao says,

"To see the caged castle at Castle Island, Tachibana seems to hold the guardian of the fairly handcrafted castle..."

and Mauri continued to carry on after.

"I still have to ask Lord Zongmao to leave the castle."

"But, Father... I don't think I can handle it anymore."

"You're right, Seung-mao.

It can no longer be helped by Hot Island alone. "

"But to see how things have been so far, I don't think either Kato or Kuroda will move aggressively"

Naomi stares at Seung Mao, who so objected, with her eyes filled with calm but harsh things.

It was Mauri who was annoyed by the appearance.

"Are you going to use someone who's not Lord Kato or Lord Kuroda?

And Mauri asked Naomi.

Naomi turns her attention to Maori.

Mauri accidentally cooled his liver to the presence of a black shadow in his eyes.

And Naomi answered quietly.

"My thoughtless man is back in Kyushu.

Here's one, let's get Tachibana's cry attacked.

To that one... "

Naomi then decided to send a letter to the person.

Its contents include the formation of Tachibana Somo and the

"I want Somo Tachibana out of the castle. At dawn, when it was possible to attack Yanagawa Castle, I will tell Lord Tokugawa."

was a terminal representation of the request and in return.

"I hope this fishes well..."

And Naomi, worried, felt like praying, and entrusted the script to the one who used it.

The same day, at night...

In the western circle of Osaka Castle, a long time later, the chief squire was all over his face, sober.

Needless to say, he was the parent and son of Tokugawa Jiayang and Tokugawa Hideyoshi, as well as Hondo Masayoshi and Hondo Genuine.

They had such a busy day these days that they didn't even get around their necks that they had a single hassle to eat.

It wasn't until that night that we reported the victory to Toyotomi Hideyoshi, just after the Sekigahara match.

But even at such a long break, they were not floating people who would be interested in a banquet.

As symbolic of the seriousness of the Three Rivers samurai everywhere, the four topics focused on nature and the "one lump left".

In other words, "Shimazu's treatment".

"My lord... what are you going to do with Shimazu?

It was honesty that made him so frankly.

When he saw him, Jia Kang turned to Hideyoshi.

"What do you think Hideyoshi should do?

In the near future, the time will come for the Lord to decide anything on my behalf.

Think now is the time, give your lord's opinion. "

He was Hideyoshi, who was suddenly told the story by Jia Kang and had a surprised look on his face, but when he heard the intentions of Jia Kang, he came up with a tight expression.

And I answered in a clear tone.

"I was wondering if this place should reveal its rewards and punishment."

"... and?

"Shimazu, on the side of the rebel Ishida, attacked Fushimi Castle, placing a deep burden on our heavy minister, Iyi.

Leaving this sin alone, there will be no indication against the other great names.

I know it should be "crushed."

"Wow... take it down..."

Chengxin, who confirmed sideways that Jia Kang looked bitter, perceived that the opinion was not in Jia Kang's mind.

So I asked Hideyoshi on behalf of Jiayang.

"What are you going to do if Lord Shimazu fails to obey that shanty?

Hideyoshi turns his face to the honest one and looks surprised.

"What are you telling me?

At that time, we should suppress Satsuma with our troops, as we did in Ishida. "

Speaking to Hideyoshi to teach Hideyoshi with his own mouth when Jiayang, who heard the words, controlled with his hands the integrity to raise one hand and continue asking questions.

"This, Hideyoshi. Don't be so easy on me. How many soldiers does Shimazu need?"

"But, Father. I thought you commanded approximately 100,000 troops in Sekigahara."

"Isn't that something that could have been accomplished not only by us Tokugawa, but also by the help of other great names?"

"Then this time as well..."

Jiayang only reinforced his temper a little against Hideyoshi, who began to embark on such a thing.

"Wait. Your Lord doesn't seem to have a good understanding of what the great names are.

All right.

This Sekigahara war and the soldiers are exhausted from the role of Korea.

Isn't it too harsh a story to say, 'Send your troops to the crusade of Shimazu in Kyushu' this time?

Besides, when Ishida was there was a reason to "stand in a cage at Osaka Castle and take Lord Hideyoshi hostage as a renegade," but that's small about Shimazu this time.

In other words, if we send soldiers to the Great Famous in the present situation, it will lead to dissatisfaction with Tokugawa, which is more obvious than seeing fire. "

"Besides, many of the great names will be changed into countries, and we will focus on the rule of our own country, so that we don't have to plan extra things."

And, purity spoke with a clear face.

"Well, that's not cute."

And, if Jia Kang snorts in a grumpy manner, next door Honesty looks bitter,

"Genuine! Modest!

And I paid strict attention to my son.

I shrug my neck at how they look and shut my mouth pure. Without even paying attention to how he was, Hideyoshi knelt.

"I see!

I mean, Father doesn't want each big name to have a soldier 'now'!

"Now..."

And, Jia Kang clouds his face and leaks.

I seem to have understood the meaning of that stupidity to the integrity of a long relationship with Jiayou.

"But one more time... will be necessary...

Not right away... "

Jia Kang's eyes widened and the tone seemed grumpy again.

"Hmm! Parents and children are not cute."

Because the words were lighter than I thought, Masayoshi peered into Jiayang's eyes.

There, I feel like I'm lurking in the back with a glow that feels' youthful 'that doesn't correspond to the age of Jiayang, who plugged me into an early age.

My lord is a samurai, too.

And I brought it by accident.

"Hmm! If you think about what I'm going to say... don't take it for granted!

By the way, Yahachiro! This is your son, Yahachiro!

If you have time to be hateful, it's because of Shimazu!

And, out of a rush to be seen through my mind, I just made the tone of my voice a little stronger, and moved that spearhead purely.

From the way things have been going so far, pure surprised me with a look at the way the story could be described as unreasonable, but it also began, in an instant, to talk back to my usual clear face and water down the stands.

"When it comes to subjugating Lord Shimazu without sending out soldiers... in the battle of Komaki, I can only imitate Lord Tai Hideyoshi"

"Well, I'll do what His Highness did to Shimazu just like that."

In the battle of Komaki, Tokugawa Jiayasu was killed by the late Hideyoshi Tai...

It was that after a long period of encirclement in the Great Army, he was driven in a twisted and spiritual manner, and at last, Nobuo Oda, the alliance leader of the war, ran to harmony "on his own", and Jiayang was forced to Kyoun without settling with Hideyoshi.

"Yes, let's not fight just to surround Lord Shimazu with a 'great army' and wait for him to break his own knee,"

"But there are two problems.

First of all, 'The Great Army'. How do we surround ourselves with great armies? Didn't you just say 'no soldiers' earlier? "

Purity answered Jiayang's query with an extra look.

"Yes. I think it's enough to make soldiers look ready to let them out at any time, even if they don't.

If you try Shimazu, you can definitely get pretty tired of just exploring the trends of our enemies far away "

"You mean gather Tokugawa soldiers on Osaka and show them the battle support?

"Continue to flashly promote your presence, anticipating the time when Lord Shimazu was suspected of 'not really coming out,' and wondering if we should gather soldiers just once… around next summer"

"Hmm... I see..."

"And another problem… is that Shimazu Yoshiku will surrender soon?

"Hmm! If you know what I mean, keep thinking about the Lord!

"This, do. Yes, I did.

However, if Yoshiku is already in hiding, the person to be surrendered is not necessarily Yoshiku. "

"When that happens, is our Lord Yoshihiro? I don't think we're gonna surrender extra, but how about that?

Then Purity shook his head quietly beside him.

"No... in his son Tadahiro Shimazu..."

"Hmm..."

"Still in the Shimazu family, we are tickling around the next time around the main house.

There, if you give the Lord Zhongheng a word from him as a sign of "The Ink of the Next Lord"...

I'm sure I'll be glad to shake your tail. "

"I mean, as always in Shizuku, I keep asking him to surrender unconditionally hard, and in the back, let's play a part in Antai in the house and sell him a favor, huh?

"You're right. Hopefully," next time "will work."

And, purity made me smile.

Of course, Jiayang is quickly discerning, such as being something with the meaning of 'sarcasm'.

'Now' was...

It was Jiayang who tried to recreate what was done to Shingen Takeda in the battle of Mitsugahara in the same way as it was in the battle of Kangahara, but because Mitsuki Ishida's unexpected assault showed that it could not be accomplished.

"Hmm! How many times can you tell that your Lord says' a lot of words'...

Fine. Let's adopt that measure.

But first, Tachibana.

Surrender Tachibana and surround Satsuma with the great names of Kyushu... because if Shimazu would surrender now, he would never have done so.

Next, urge Yahachiro to drop Yanagawa Castle as soon as possible. "

It was Jiayang who summed up the story so, but blocked it as purity remembered something there.

"Yes, yes... if you say so, I have something to tell you."

"What? Where people were feeling good and trying to enjoy the rest of the booze..."

"There is a report about Lord Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Would it be better after tomorrow?

"Hmm! Don't ask, knowing I'm shaking my neck beside you!

"I apologize for this. There are about two.

First of all, a letter was sent to Yoshiku Shimazu by Lord Hideyoshi. "

"Hmm... what's that about?

"That's right. But I don't know that much."

"Okay… let me give you another report"

"Yes, I was summoned by Lord Hideyoshi today to say that Lord Hiroaka Terasawa entered Osaka Castle"

"Well... do you keep the contents of that meeting under control?

"No… for more information… it's just that you said you were labored about the next thing in Kyushu"

"I mean, towing toward us..."

"Father? What does that mean?

"My interaction with Hirosaki seems to me like a declaration that we will grasp each other."

"I see! So Lord Hideyoshi showed his father that he was friends with Lord Terasawa!

After all, Lord Hideyoshi is not the only one! Ha ha!

Is the liquor going around, or is it an extra big liver ball...

Hideyoshi laughed out loud without worrying about Jiayang's grumpy face.

Jia Kang stared at the situation, but Hideyoshi didn't seem to care.

He dropped his shoulder like he'd given up and leaked one last word.

"Either way... I'm trying to cage Shimazu because Toyotomi is the same... so..."

Thus, the long celebration of 22 October 5 was about to end.

And the "numerous seeds" sown on this day were to sprout in unison on October 27, five days later.
