Osaka Castle, January 5, 2017

The castle was so wrapped up in tension that I hadn't seen it these days.

What is bringing it about was' Sendai clan lord, visit of the Dada political sect '.

It is no exaggeration to say that since the post-war processing of the Battle of Sekigahara was completed and Tokugawa Jiayang walked away from the West Maru, the so-called 'big man' has wandered over Osaka Castle for the first time.

It is true that during the New Year's Eve greetings and the Toyoku Festival, many of the great famous men visited Osaka Castle, but they were not as existential as the political ministry.

A political sect who wears his chest and walks in the hallway with dignity. Right behind it is also a sturdy, single-barn heavy length with a tough face.

People were stopping at the beginning of the hallway with their heads down, as they were pushed by the strong intimidation they unleashed.

With such a guillotine and sharp gaze at them, the political ministry gave a lavish voice.

"That's a lot of people. When His Royal Highness Tai, it was busier!

Still, the fact that he has a full smile on his face suggests that he is in a good mood.

The other heavy length was following his back with his mouth tied and nothing answered.

Upbeat political sect for a polite welcome and a heavy look from nervousness or stiffness.

In stark contrast, as he advanced early down the hallway, he finally appeared during the wait of excellence -

◇ ◇

"I'll see you first. Lord Hideyoshi"

Cut out like this, the 'Cyclops' political sect.

Ever since I became Toyotomi Hideyoshi, I've seen a variety of great men, but I've never seen anyone so honest about their desires.

For example, I have something nasty in my stomach because I made it into an Oda Yurakusai, but I haven't put it on the table. I think that's like 'sagging', so to speak.

No, was there just one......

"Demon King" Tae-ho. Only he remembers the stripping ambition as it was in his eyes.

The decisive difference, however, is that in the case of Tae-jung, 'hostility' was pushed forward, whereas' friendship 'can be felt from the political sect.

In other words, it was easy to imagine whether what he was trying to do now was' some kind of deal '.

"Um, it may be wrong somewhere, but this is the first time we've seen each other like this"

I return words and see how they react.

However, the political ministry has moved on to the point without any hesitation.

"If the castle exits and the moat is buried, Osaka Castle becomes a symbol of peace... It's beautiful."

To the words, the two frowns, Yukimura Maida and Souyoshi Ishida, present, moved pictorially.

They know, of course, that the movement of the political sect was the cause of this' harmony '.

And because of its achievements, the Sendai clan has grown from 62,000 stones to a million stones, and Sendai Harbor has been allowed to trade with Spain.

- Which mouth says!

And we must both want to make our voices absurd.

I send a silent message to both of you, saying, "Get over it."

The two then corrected their posture with a rugged look on their faces.

Such a silent exchange of our subordinates, watching as we nibbled, continued in anticipation of the time.

"By the way, Lord Hideyoshi. There's one thing I'd like you to do."

"What? Tell me."

"Yes, then, let me be clear! If the Great Hall strikes again, how are you going to be protected from Osaka!?

In this inquiry, the two servants Soyo and Happy Village also opened their eyes greatly.

It wasn't just the eyes that were on me, it was enough that I lost my words with my mouth half open.

Silence persists for a while on so intense and direct an inquiry.

Then he stepped in again from the political sect.

"Without a moat to protect, the town of Osaka would be ravaged by 'enemy soldiers', wouldn't it? Many dead, many buildings to burn."

"What are you trying to say?

I managed to regain my feelings and asked him.

Then, as if he had waited for me to devour him, the political ministry had taken a step further.

"Your Highness will never give up even if Osaka's town turns into a hell of a painting."

"What?

"Kicking Toyotomi out of Osaka. And making Lord Toyotomi Hideyoshi a deceased!

"You rude bastard!!

- Gatta!!

He raises his knees trying to cram it into the political sect while Soo-yong turns a bright red face.

But Happy Village next door desperately took control of him.

"Lord Ishida! In front of my lord!

Soo-yong sends his gaze toward me, grinning his lips with regret.

I slowly shook my head to the side as I stared at him.

- Come on!

And, suing with gaze......

"... excuse me"

Soo-yong sits back reluctantly, even as he puts something on his face that he is not satisfied with.

The political sect on the other hand kept staring at me niggling at him without giving him a glance like that.

Then it was Happy Village that had pinched my mouth between us.

"I don't think it's General Edo's intention for the town of Osaka to be a sea of fire or for Hideyoshi to lose his life. How about that?

In this moment of words the face of the political sect was stained with a surprising colour.

Then he shifted the gaze that had been directed only at me to Happy Village.

- It's not the intention of General Edo's family -

I could fully understand that the meaning of this word is so heavy from the conversation I've had so far.

This means that 'the Tokugawa family strongly desires the demise of the Toyotomi family', whereas' Hideyotomi Tokugawa wants coexistence with the Toyotomi family '.

That was pointed out by Yukimura, who is away from the Tokugawa family, so there is no reason why the complexion of the political sect has changed.

"Ugh haha!! I've thought about it for a long time, but the Lord is still a 'can do' man!

Zhengzheng held his shoulder as he approached Yukimura with a large strand.

"Whoa! Xiao Shiro! Your Lord has not yet had a wife! Welcome this man's daughter to his wife! I'm sure he'll hum a good boy! Wow!!

A young man, who had refrained behind him, turns his face bright red to what can only be described as an idea of a political sect.

I didn't put it in my mouth, but I was touched in my heart.

Because according to "Historical Facts", the daughter of Yukimura Maida, who was helped by the Osaka Summer Formation, became the wife of a long-time minister of the Ichikura family of the Dada family, and together with the boy of Yukimura, Daihachi, who was saved, will leave his bloodline in future generations.

It was precisely where I felt I saw the moments of the century and had absolutely nothing to do with the subject, that I got so excited.

And I accidentally got my mouth out.

"Ugh! That's good!! I hope Daihachi, who was just born into it, will also be taken care of at Lord Kojiro's!

Everyone has stared me in the eye round at that statement.

Shit! I'm so excited, I ran the extra thing through my mouth!

It has obviously become an unnatural story!

We need to change the subject here quickly and get the air back on the field......

That's what I thought, and I said it early.

"Gogh! So, uncle, your opinion is broken between you and me, is that what you're trying to say?

But......

This too direct way of putting it was to freeze the air off the field extra...

"Is that...? Duh, what's wrong?

All of a sudden, I took a heavy vibe and I sweated cold.

And as he looked around at them all, the political ministry opened its heavy mouth.

"I want General Edo to win."

The moment the political sect laughed with a nitwit, the eyes of Soyo and Happy Village were wide open.

I, on the other hand, pointed my mouth without knowing the sincerity of the political sect.

"Whoa! Let us hope so far that in the end your Lord wants you to beat 'Shogun' instead of 'Toyotomi'!? So what are you here for!?

Then the political ministry turned to me and replied in a mild tone.

"Of course, I had a ritual I wanted to ask Lord Hideyoshi to do, and I did it"

"What is that? Say it now, without wasting it!

Obviously, it seems that the three people - the political ministry, Sou-yong and Yukimura - have a common 'thought'.

But I have no idea.

That's why I encouraged him to say things clearly to the political sect.

But in his next words, I never thought I'd lose my hips.

"I'd like you to meet the school and the dean."

"Hey, what the...!? Toyoku School and Dean Akashi!?

What the hell is this guy saying...?

Even though you want the Shogun to win, not the Toyotomi, you want the college and the dean?

I don't know what it means more and more.

In confusion, I was thinking with my hands on my chin, not knowing how to answer.

... and that was then.

"Accepted, Hideyoshi"

And a clear voice echoed into the room.

Everyone shifts their gaze to the bearer of that voice.

Ahead, there was the figure of Souyoshi Ishida with his spine stretched out.

"Well... I just thought it was a rash, but surprisingly, you know what I mean."

Now he begins to hold Soo-yong's shoulder while the political sect nibbles.

Then Soo-yong said softly with his hands off.

"You just want 'hostages' and 'connections' that would favor a deal with Spain, not a college study. He's a sweet man."

Soo-yong said, turning his cold eyes to the political sect.

But the political sect returned the words with no concern at all.

"Though I think the Lord who advises the Lord to" get on with the story "knowing that he is."

"Heh heh, whatever you say. But you'll never be allowed to fail after all you've said."

"Ugh haha! This Cyclops has been tampered with! Think how many training fields I've been through!

"Hehe, I've known that since Odawara saw you in white."

"Ugh! That's Ishida Metallurgy. I fought and sold Tokugawa twice, so I didn't lose twice!

"Hehe, you don't want a coward telling you you can't even sell a fight"

It's a conversation between two people who have no idea if it's bothering them or even if it is.

But more strange than that, why is Zong Yong on the word of a political sect......

Then Yukimura summed up the conversation so as to clear up my question.

"So, the next time the Shogun attacked Osaka, Lord Dada said, 'We are breaking away from the Great Hall' and 'we will be at the side of General Edo', right? And as a condition of this," Toyoku School and the dean's Akashi Temple "will be given to you."

Instead of answering in words, the political sect nodded slightly several times.

But there's still so much I don't know.

So I went to Yukimura.

"Uncle, what does it mean to 'break away' from the top and 'side' on the top of it?

"Meaning as it is"

"No, no, I'm asking because I don't really know what that means! Then it's like, 'I won't let you beat Lord Jiayang', but it sounds like 'I'll let you beat Lord Hideyoshi'..."

I said it myself that far, and I was hacked.

And I finally realized it.

"You mean that!!

You'll be sure to stop now, "Osaka Summer Formation".

The total shogun army is said to be 200,000 large armies.

In addition to the great names, it includes the army led by General Tokugawa Jiayang and the army led by Deputy General Tokugawa Hideyoshi.

However, it was well understood in previous conversations that these two 'bowmen' aspire to be different places from each other.

And if the formation of Osaka ends with the victory of the Shogun while 'the General remains at home', it means' you can punish Toyotomi as Jia Kang wishes'.

But on the other hand, if Jiayang lost and Hideyoshi, who became general instead, won......

Wouldn't it be "I can treat Toyotomi as Hideyoshi would like"?

In other words, while the face of the Shogun is preserved, Toyotomi can also survive -

Of course, it's best for Toyotomi to win honestly, but assuming that happens, the world will turn back to 'turmoil' again.

In other words, the premise of the idea of a political sect is: 'If we are to continue the world of Tahei under heaven, we must let the Shogun win'.

In time, if Toyotomi's path to survival has been explored, the best course of action would be to let Hideyoshi win, not Jiayang.

But would things go so conveniently...

What 'measures' should I use to isolate and defeat only Jiayang among the shogun forces that will attack as one in the first place......

He said in a low voice that the political sect was putting his thoughts around him that way.

"If Dada can't move, so can the others. Therefore, we can buy time. But if Lord Otomo storms Osaka Castle himself, he will have to obey."

"Does that mean you have to kick Jia Hao out of the battlefield by then?"

Where Zong Yong snapped like that, the political ministry said, "It's time to go!," he began to take his seat in solidarity with Hikaru Ichikura.

"And then there's the bottom line of Toyotomi. I expect you to see him again in the Toyota Festival."

At the end of the day, Zheng Zheng thanked me and headed toward Zheng with his big stock.

I spoke to him in a hurry.

"Your Majesty! Let me hear one last thing!

When the political sect stopped his feet perfectly, he turned only to this one of his faces.

Against that face, I asked out loud.

"Why!? Why are you holding our shoulders?

When Zhengzheng raised the corner of his mouth with a nigga, he answered in a light tone as he shifted his gaze to Happy Village.

"There was a man who held my shoulder a while ago. I just want to thank you for that."

Then Sou Yong's loud voice sounded as if to put in a lay.

"That won't be all!

A political sect looks at Zong Ying and loosens his mouth.

Sou Yong also gave a faint grin as he stared at the political sect again.

And as if he had given up, his shoulders were stretched out, and he said it out loud, astonishingly.

"I don't like a man named Tokugawa Jiayang!! No longer are you the only ones who can make me say goodbye! I asked for it!! Wow haha!!

What a fearless exaggeration.

I was overwhelmed by the bottomless vessel of a man named Dada Politburo.

But what is it...

The excitement that springs from the depths of this heart!

Since the establishment of the overwhelmingly unfavourable 'harmony', the two Soyo and Happy Village, who have often blocked it somewhere, are also shining their eyes on hope!

I've brought the Dada Sect to my side.

This fact certainly brought a glimmer of light to the future of the rich minister in the dark -
