Celebrating 17 (1612) May 7th at noon -
Finally, I, Hideyoshi Toyotomi, arrived at Sakano Harbor.
Waiting there was Mr. Horiuchi, who, as always, wanted to be like a bear.
"Ha ha! Father, oh!
"Oh, Mr. Good! Well done!!
When I saw his face, I shouted with my eyes shining.
And he pointed to the giant ship in front of him and asked.
"Is that 'Toyoku Maru'?!?
"Ha ha!! You're right! That 'Castle' is the 'Toyoku Maru'!
That's exactly what you deserve to describe as a 'castle'.
In the shape of a Western Galeon ship, there are five sail columns. If you spread it out, it will take shape like you followed the Heavenly Guard.
It is equipped with 50 artillery guns on a black hull, with a crew of 1,000 people on board.
Furthermore, the 'Heavenly Guard', which is not found on Western ships, is characterised by its grand attachment to the deck.
The townsfolk of Sakami who saw this would have lost their temperament.
When I entered Toyokuni Maru quickly, I ordered him to be exalted.
"Going for Sun Fu!! Full speed ahead!
◇ ◇
Meanwhile, around the same time.
Tokugawa Jiayang was sweating down a steep road.
It was such a tough journey that the horse quickly became useless and now he keeps walking on his own feet.
The heat and humidity of the early summer and the strong sunlight had uprooted his strength and kept his hands and feet moving diligently in a hazy consciousness.
On his way too hard, he hit a grudge verse against Honda Masayoshi, who runs next door.
"Why don't you... don't you get it yet?
"Ha-ha-ha... what are you talking about! Haven't even left Hanoi yet!
"Grrr...... was this really the only way?
"My lord has chosen for himself!
"Huh! I don't remember saying anything! Your Lord would have chosen this path on his own!
"Hey, I wonder what you're talking about, such lies!
"Huh! In lies and such..."
Yes, it was when Jiayang was about to say it.
- Bassa! Bassa!
And people jumped from the grass nearby.
"Wow!
Unexpectedly glanced and surprised Jiayang. Honesty was pushed out by Jiayang's big ass and turned upside down on the spot.
"And, my lord!
"Hey, what's up!?
Jiayang is completely unable to swallow the situation. But when shouting from all over, I finally realized it was an enemy attack.
And a familiar whisper offended Jia Hao.
"Kake!! I've been waiting for you! Damn raccoon!"
"Is that voice a bartender!?
"Ha! No matter how old you get, I don't think you'll ever forget the voice of a man who 'never again' lost! Because there are two times, three times! Let's have them lose again!
That was Chang-yuki Maida.
In addition, 200 soldiers led by him were simultaneously attacked by the army of Jiayang.
Even Jiayang and the others, who had hurried along the road with poor feet, were exhausted, and it was hard to kill the momentum of Chang Yue's soldiers, who had waited until then to keep their strength warm.
Thousands of Jiayou soldiers, such as those returning to their original path and falling under the cliff, were scattered and kicked.
And Jia Kang finally fled the scene again with his life.
"Oh, my God! Safe housekeeper!!
"Calm down! That's just I'm used to losing! Running away is fast!!
Chang Yue's high laughing voice crept into his ear from behind as Jia Kang clenched his teeth.
And Chang Xiao went on.
"I'm laying down my soldiers on the road ahead! Go home with their hospitality! Calm down!"
In fact, not even one soldier has been ambushed.
But Jiayang, who believed Chang Xie's words, hurried down Iga Road, debilitating both physically and mentally.

When Hideyoshi and Jia Kang started moving away from Osaka...
Osaka Castle was just busy enough to call it a training ground.
A shogun army soldier has already entered Sanomaru, and now Guiguang Traditional is desperately fighting to defend the gates of the two circles.
And the soldiers wounded on the battlefield were being allowanced by doctors seconded by Kyo's school at a temporary medical clinic on Honmaru's property.
And as the number grew, so did those who had hands in the castle, and they looked like battlefields.
"Soldiers over there, let them take this pill. Ooh! You! That's not a pill! Ointment!"
People are moving their hands diligently by the precise instructions of bruising, a brilliant side room.
There was also the figure of Akashi Regina there.
And what was carried before her was her familiar face.
It was a childhood tame Jitsu Ono.
"... Ji De..."
Her hand stopped unexpectedly. She was always a calm and settled girlfriend, but she was badly wolfed by the sight of childhood tampering as well as being crippled.
The bruises I found aiming at her like that showered a sharp word at her.
"Regina! Your hands are stopping! Do something quickly and treat the next one!
"So, but..."
To fill her thin eyes with tears, she shook her neck small and sideways, still bewildered.
The bruises then applied minimal treatment to Ji De, who would not wake up when she came to her eyes with a large strand, and sent her to a different place.
And once again, facing Regina, I put my hand on her shoulder.
"Look, Regina. This is a battlefield. If our hands stop, someone might die. Whoever needs treatment in front of us, be it a parent or a child, we must not stop. We're fighting injuries and diseases, just like they fought our enemies!
"Fight injuries and illnesses..."
"That's right! Come on, we don't have time for extra chatter anymore! Switch your mind to the next one, quick!
"Yes..."
I woke up with a bruised drink. It was Regina, but only her words remained in my head forever.
- Fight injuries and diseases.
As well as deploring the misery and cruelty of the war, she remembered an unspeakable excitement at the sense of mission that sprang up.
And one determination has sprouted.
- Let's learn medicine. And I want to be a fine 'samura' one day too......
I want to see wounded childhood tame and change my helpless self.
I want to catch up one day with the bruises the same age that scolded me about myself, and overtake them.
I kept doing what I could now, desperately, with thoughts behind my chest that I could not speak to such a person.
And......
- Don't, don't, don't, don't!!
When I thought the drums of war (shenko) had been ringing loudly, the shogunate army shouted at me.
- It's over! Stop fighting! Ooh! You've reached the point!!
It would be the voice uttered in the three circles that the Shogun Army is pushing as a grand election, but when it did reach the ears of the Reginas in the main circle, it cheered with no one.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa!!
- Yay!! We did it. Ooh!!
- It's a miracle! A miracle has happened!!
It was in them who revealed joy in their mouths, and Regina was confused about how to describe her emotions.
Then a pong on her right shoulder and a soft hand of bruising were placed on her.
"Stop your hand, Regina! But if you look happy when you're happy, Hideyoshi will be delighted!
Regina opened her eyes wide against bruises that turned her uncontrolled smile.
Cute, dazzling smile reflecting purity......
- Well... Hideyoshi admires this smile...
She pretended not to realize that a little fire had caught in her heart, and she smiled her best.
"Yeah! I'm so happy!
When I saw her face, a small sighed bruise turned to the wounded soldiers again.
And he gave people orders out loud.
"Our battle is not over yet! Minnie! I'm gonna be so uptight!!
- Yes!
Once again, the people in the castle regained their temper.
The look was uniformly bright, as if it showed their waiting future-
