The Space Fortress That Came to the Sengoku Era
Episode 221: Courtesy Artillery
side: Kuyuan Yima
The next day we finally leave for Odawara. From here, don't focus on efficiency. Travel along the coast following Hojo Navy's lead. I can't help but follow this cruise speed.
Sounds like you guys are in for a whopping hell of a seasickness in the open sea.
Odawara Castle will be one of the most famous castles of the Warring States. When Hideyoshi attacked Odawara, he famously created the soil base "Doru" and the open moat "From the Borough", which spanned nine kilometers in length, in the overall structure surrounding the town.
I don't know if I could have dropped humility or Shingen, either, or if it was robust enough to make me unwilling to drop it, but in historical facts, it turns out to be a castle that caged and successfully repelled.
Well, I think that success led to the mistake of choosing Cage Castle over Hideyoshi.
As it stands, we won't have that much remodeling, but it will be of high value as a castle and castle township facing the sea. There doesn't seem to be any harbor-like harbors in particular.
In this era, the majority of ports use natural terrain, and it seems that they rarely bother to build ports.
"You see it."
"Oh! We're finally here!
Looks like we could have gotten to Odawara by this day. When I see the town, I hear joy.
Hmm. Obviously, someone's happy to get off the ship. Should people who don't like boats go back by land? Though, I wouldn't be able to say, 'I don't like ships, so I take land routes'.
"But are you sure?
Don't worry, Your Highness has your permission.
If we get too close to land, our ship will be on a shoreline, which is what he says on the face, so if we moor the Galeon and Carabel ships away from the shallower beach, Mr. Phantom makes a hell of a suggestion.
"Isn't it just the fun?"
"Right. It's not funny when they think it's just black."
Do Nobunaga and Nobunaga agree? Mr. Shin 'an, Mr. Jing Soo is silent. Maybe I don't disagree, but I can't even say yes.
"Okay. Young lady."
It could have been a failure. You let Nobunaga and Mirage Inn slip your mouths on the boat talking about shooting empty guns and using them as courtesy guns.
Exactly not in this era. When he returned from a long voyage at Kuyuan's house, he said he had a habit of shooting empty guns and informing him that he had returned safely.
Galeon and Carabel ships aren't the only ones that shoot. I've decided to let the Sarge Navy shoot large canisters and artillery. This is the idea of Nobunaga and Nobunaga. I told you to do it flashy, didn't I?
"All right. Prepare the cannons.... shoot!
It is the role of Nobunaga to issue a decree. The chain of command needs to be clear. Nobunaga and the others aren't the only ones. Everyone in the Sage Navy is motivated.
Will it be the right time?
"Oh! What a force!
"Is this the power of the Nanban ship..."
I heard enough noise to shake the atmosphere because I was close.
Some people on the Oda side are new to hearing cannon firing sounds. Those who were not in the ranks or obedient during the Tsingzhou offensive. I know the Sage Navy because Ceres shot an empty cannon during a night naval battle with Tomojan Hattori.
Looks like I landed the messenger of the news first and got permission... Are you all right? You don't need the noise of a black ship of historical fact, do you?

"Become... what a roar..."
"I don't know..."
While welcoming Nishido Maru and his uncle, he also came to the sea to welcome a line of Oda, but I didn't expect an envoy from his uncle to let him try shooting a Nanban ship cannon.
It's hard to say that you can't even tell me that you are a longtime learner, the owner of a Nambarian ship.
Besides, it spread rumours of Nanban ships to the Chinese people and all over Kanto. Arrived quite quickly than expected, not many of them have gathered yet, but everyone should be paying attention.
The power. I was happy to give you permission if you'd show me. It was a more forceful than expected. It would have sounded all over the town of Odawara. To those who do not know the circumstances, they may have done something sorry.
"You've brought a hell of a ship."
"Dear Left, we can't build a ship that big."
"Only." It's not just the sound of cannons. Especially the biggest ship is the size that cannot exist in Kanto. Now if you're still slow on your feet, you're not the enemy, but given the story of your uncle's incoming messenger and the date of his actual arrival, you'll have come at an astonishing rate.
"The marines of the sea of Ise are going to grow up."
To be honest, few people in the house took a lighter look at Oda.
Some know that he has given his name to the minister of Spur, and the tiger of Ozhang will know quite a few. But what is being interpreted is that there is no choice between not being a guardian and being defamatory.
Because I thought you were a new merchant who no one had ever heard of.
The number of black ships is ten. That's not everything. Besides, my uncle wrote in his last sentence that he also included six ships of the Sage Navy.
Horrible. I also know that Oda gained strength from the sea and grew up.
"Oda will want more commerce in Kanto. We have to divide this up at home and make more business deals."
"Only." The aim of Oda is the towing of Imawa and the expansion of commerce. You don't have to tell me. But the expansion of commerce is a lot that we get.
If there are more ships in Kanto with only a few merchant ships and more ships from Taizhang, it will be easier to obtain the redemption of "Ayana" until now while asking about the complexion of the river and Takeda.
Oda seems to be making a deal with Imawa and moving to an advantage in Mitsugawa. Now I have to ask about Oda's complexion, but it is clear that there should be many handouts to choose from.
"That ship. I want it."
"You just won't be able to. If you can make an alliance, yes…"
If we can't build a Nanban ship, but it's a ship used by the Sage Navy, can we build it? If you look closely, is there a ship whose shape is close to ours?
But that ship is the source of Oda's power. Wouldn't it be so easy to put it somewhere else?
The concern is Takeda and Imagawa. Imawa will surely be dissatisfied, and I don't know how it will work because I have just made peace. Besides, if they think it's an alliance that rivals Imawa, it could crush Takeda's face, who brokered harmony.
Because of Kanto's intervention with Shinano, he was hostile to Takeda, but he doesn't want to turn Takeda against him.
Fair enough. Are you going to identify a line of Oda and then think again?
――――――――――――――――――
Courtesy cannon.
The courtesy guns currently taking place in the Japanese area celebrate the return of the Kuyuan family from a long voyage and it is said that it was the ancestors who shot the empty guns.
The oldest record of courtesy guns in Japan was the first to celebrate and shoot the return of Hokujo's mission delivered when Oda's Black Ship convoy arrived in Odawara.
This is noted both in the Astronomical Kanto Road journal and in the Hojo family's materials, and Oda tells the sunny sky that rumors spread from Odawara to Kanto and Okinawa that he called Master Thunder.
It should be noted that in Europe it is believed that the Kuyuan family is descended from the Eastern Roman Empire, etc., and there is a theory that both the courtesy guns and the ancestors are European. However, there was nothing in the European dossier at the time, and there has not even been a debate about the ancestors of the courtesy guns because in the Japanese area they deny the theory of the Eastern Roman Empire of the Kuyuan family.
