The Space Fortress That Came to the Sengoku Era

Episode 794: The Spring of the Oda Navy

SIDE: Yukihiro Maida

It was late spring of last year when we came to Ozhang. It's been almost a year since then.

"Another festival? Ogi loves festivals."

The other day, you remembered the story you heard about the Spring Festival, and the minister of the Takeda family ancient ginseng who came from Kofi muttered in dissatisfaction. When I heard that it was a festival to see cherry blossoms, I thought it was an imitation of a public house in Kyo, but all the people in the house or even the people gathered for a feast.

In the summer, I thought we had a grand festival with fireworks illuminating the night sky, and in the fall, the festival was held as a whole from samurai to monks to the people at the martial arts tournament. Even in the first winter of the year, they were making a scene on the squid. I didn't know it was a festival until spring.

It would also be natural to be dissatisfied with where there is such money. I still don't think that much because I'm a newcomer in the Takeda family, but it can't be interesting if I'm Mr. Kofiyuan's Takeda family minister of ancient ginseng.

"Is it worth it better than that..."

Most of our enemies are not Oda. This is Imagawa. They are taking advantage in the Golden Mountains and Shinano behind Yuno. Shinano is particularly troublesome. Shinano, who also has the territory of our Maida family, does not necessarily have many loyalists to the Takeda family.

"Well, if you fight, you lose"

The Ancient Ginseng to the minister who speaks of anxiety said that he could not lose sight with a coward's face, but it would be a story if he fought for the good of the land. Can you beat Shinano or the Far River?

The innkeeper is the only one. Nevertheless, it would be difficult to be told whether he is better than the inner head, who is even said to be Buddha's bullet Zhengzhong. It also means that we know that Imawa escaped from the Western Three.

I also hear that Hojo kicked out Kanto Uesugi Constitution in Kanto. Hojo is making huge profits from his business with Oda. The feud between the Takeda family and Imagawa will also be convenient because the west will crush each other. If Hojo were to move, when would he plot with Oda?

The Three Rivers seem a little noisy, but Oda doesn't seem to care at all. It's getting bigger by finishing up the realm than that.

"By the end of the war with Imagawa, I wonder how Ozhang will be."

Everyone shut their mouths to concerns they had accidentally spoken of. We came here to find out. That Ozhang is so powerful that it is not a number of objects such as Kofi or Shinano. Not to mention Kichinai, East is poorer than Ozhang.

"Sometimes I'm so pessimistic. Imagawa is the enemy of the Spur and Oda families, and our Takeda family stays here as guests."

When one minister says some things are good after a lot of silence, the expression of relief spreads to everyone. I guess that's true when it comes to the fact that it's a hostage. Nevertheless, the Takeda family buys salt, food, iron, etc., from Ozhang.

And I'm sure you can learn at school. [M] It carries an advantage over Imawa.

The concern is the Taiyuan Snow Sai in Imagawa. The Takeda family is being flirted with by that man.

There's not much I can do. I wonder what will happen to the Takeda family.

Side: a long time ago

The port of Krabby River was as busy as ever. I can see a lot of ships in our boat from the Sage Navy and the Oda Navy, as well as merchant ships from elsewhere.

"That ship."

"Yeah, that's right. It's a little old, though."

I'm here with Nobunaga today. Nobunaga looked at the three old junk ships staying in the harbor and asked if they were okay.

Although the ship is painted black, it is probably because of its distinct antiquity. It was Reefa and Snow who brought these three ships here in a convoy with Nanban ships.

I have decided that this junk ship is an old one among the ships we use, and I was asked to carry it for the purpose of transferring it to the Oda Navy for offshore use because it is ancient and tough for distant voyages.

"Until my predecessors, it was a ship I used a lot. It's turned into a Nanban ship now."

"It's damaged everywhere, but if you repair it, you can still use it if you're sailing offshore"

They started explaining this ship, but in fact, it got old around Ming and bought junk ships between abandoned ships, changed the sails, and carried them after some renovation, such as putting copper plates under the drinking water. Ships of this era have a short lifespan. Especially since the dandruff on the bottom of the ship was troublesome, it was decided to put a copper plate on the bottom of the ship as a countermeasure. Naturally this is also a technology that is not available in this era, so make it a secret of the Kuyuan family.

It means we will give it to the Oda family for the treatment of the main ship before we build the Nanban ship, to enhance maritime transport at all.

Ozhang has already mass-produced a long-distance vessel, and plans to build a Galeon vessel next in order to capitalize on the experience of a carrack vessel that has previously been repaired and modified.

That said, the demand is growing more rapidly, so there are not enough ships or sailors. Especially the routes with Isedabe and Kanto are so frequent that there are not enough ships to come and go. This ship is also scheduled to carry luggage on a route with Otomo.

"Young lady, it's a ship that can be used enough"

Originally in the Oda family, where the Navy does not exist, the development of the Navy is a high priority. Saji, who binds the Oda Navy, welcomed him with Reefa and Snow, but he inspected the interior first, and decided that the hull could be used in repairs, even if it was damaged everywhere.

"The ocean is all that's missing."

The ship was immediately handed over to the ship's carpenters. Three pairs of mirrored flowers and goodness commanding the ship carpenters would make it ready for use. Mr. Nobunaga worried about the status quo with a slight sigh as he entered the Krabby River mansion.

"Five or ten years ahead of us. And we're leaving the Navy with transport, so we're running out of ships."

Shinagawa seems somewhat dissatisfied with the development of the navy, which can also be seen as a threat from Imagawa and Kitakuchi. The main force of the Navy is still early, and the transport ship is a modified Kurumi ship that has modified the old ship from one end to the other.

The two carrack ships, the newly constructed Kuyuan ship and the one previously converted by the Nanbans on board, predominate in dealings with Kanto, and there is not that much room. The modified carrack ship is also used to carry luggage with our island.

And then there's our carabel boat for travel and the carabel boat we lent to the Oda family and Mr. Saji, which resides in Oozawa, but when we're busy, it's enough to move and carry our luggage.

I wish I could use a little more land route, but land routes have lots of checkpoints and bad roads.

"The carpenters and sailors have just begun their education."

As I explained before, the training of ship carpenters and sailors has already begun. The construction of a school building is necessary to develop it as a school to a large extent, but plans are under way to make part of Krabby Castle a school there.

However, construction is lagging behind with the palace carpenter busy. The hospital and school expansion in Naguno was almost over, but restructuring such as Naguno Castle and our mansion around it took precedence over Krabby Castle on the intention of Shinsu and Nobunaga.

The Navy is trained by Sage, but the ship carpenter is SeiSan, who brings people together for each of them. Well, I guess we're still ahead of us.

I guess it's the most luxurious problem from other countries.

"How's Elle?

"Fine. I'm fine. Everyone cares about you."

The busy Nobunaga recently returned to Qingzhou one foot after several reports, but I slowed down in the hot spring with Reefa and Snow.

The topic is Pregnant El. He's still worried.

"It's a strange thing. Technically, without my father or my mother, we Android will be my mother."

Reefa looked horrified when she heard Elle was well, but Snow looked emotionally at the garden visible from the hot spring.

I don't even know what a family is, and I don't even have a family. If I were to make you strong, we were like family.

Though I created life in virtual space, I nurture and give life to those who created it themselves in the real world.

What do you call a miracle without calling this a miracle?

"Well, the athletes are easy. Command's gonna be tough."

With a little sogginess, Reefa gave me a teasing grin. I don't know, because we all do what we want and enjoy living.

I'm honestly glad about that. A slightly unbalanced couple. I do have a tough time with it.
