Chapter 389 Treasure and Ninja
"Mr. Master, please leave here quickly!" Yuma Yasuda ran in anxiously. As soon as he saw Shimazu Kokuha, he said repeatedly: "The Ming army entered the city in a large scale, and Lord Tadaro died. Master, please leave here immediately."
My brother's deep thoughts did not make Shimazu Kokusa feel sad, as if all this had been within his expectations.
"Yasada, come with me." Shimazu Kokusa took him to another room.
Here; Yuma Yasuda was surprised to see hundreds of samurai gathered here. These people were among the various kendo schools who rushed to Tsurumaru Castle to assist in the battle:
I think of the flow of the Osan Mountain, the first flow of the first flow, the middle flow of the rich field flow, the dung field flow, the dou field flow, the shinto flow, the shinto flow, the shinto flow...
They sat there holding samurai swords, wearing a white-haired strap on their heads, and no one made a sound, just sitting quietly...
"Mr. Yasuda, do you know why they are here?"
After Shimazu Kokuha asked, he did not ask Yumasato Yasuda to answer, but answered the question himself: "Because, they want to avenge Master Miyamoto, and they want to be with Tsurumaru Castle!"
"I understand, Master of the Family." Yuma Yasuda knew that at this point, there was nothing to persuade him anymore, and he knew that Master of the Family was ready...
"Mr. Yasuda, follow me." Shimazu Kokusa suddenly said.
He returned to his room with Shimazu Kokuha, while cooking tea, Shimazu Kokuha said, "Mr. Yasuda Nobunaga, do you know about Takeda Shingen's battle for hegemony?"
Yuma Yasuda was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Shimazu Kokuhisa was silent and said: "In the Warring States Period, the Kafari country produced a lot of gold, which was the rare and large-scale golden vein in my Japan. At that time, the Kafari country was the territory of the Takeda Shingen family, a place with a rich gold production. Takeda Shingen, a military strategist who was well versed in the secrets of Sun Tzu's Art of War, and the Takeda family quickly developed into a big name that dominated the country. The Takeda family's cavalry army even defeated Oda Nobunaga, the overlord who controlled the heavy area of Kinki at that time, and later the coalition forces of the Edo Shogunate's first general Tokugawa Ieyasu, the Muromachi Shogunate, were regarded as the only person who could overthrow Nobunaga's autocracy. Unfortunately, Takeda Shingen, who was in his prime, died of tuberculosis. The Takeda family's dream of holding troops to dominate the world was shattered..."
Yuma Yasuda didn't know why he said this, but only heard Shimazu Kokusa continue:
"Unlike Oda Nobunaga's rapid expansion strategy, Takeda Shingen takes a steady and steady approach. Although the speed of the Takeda family's expansion is not as fast as that of the Oda family, Takeda Shingen will manage it carefully every time he captures a territory. Therefore, Takeda Shingen has the reputation of three military strategists, strategists, and internal affairsmen. Although Takeda's family declined after Shingen's death, the legend surrounding Shingen's treasure has been heard all the time..."
The word "treasure" fell into his ears, and Yumasato Yasuda's heart beat rapidly.
There is almost no one in Japan who doesn’t know the legend of Takeda Shinchi’s treasure, but now the head of the family suddenly proposes, does he know everything about the treasure?
Yuma Yasuda did not dare to ask, Shimazu Konoha slowly explained;
"Tada Shingen's eldest son Yoshinobu was imprisoned for rebellion and opposition to attack the Imakawa family and then committed suicide. The Takeda family immediately faced the problem of designating heirs. The talented Takeda Shingen knew that his second son Katsura was brave but not scheming, had a bad temper, and could not continue his great cause, so he appointed his grandson Nobuka as his heir, Katsura Nobuka's father Katsura's regent. This was a famous "distance designation" incident in the Warring States Period. The "distance designation" fully demonstrated Takeda Shingen's knowledge of people and the system of inheriting his son's father's business. Unfortunately, Katsura nobuka had completely defeated Takeda's family business before he trusted the true heir Nobukaka, who took power, was unexpected... "
Speaking of this, Shimazu Kokusa sighed:
"Why did Takeda Shingen, who was smart forever, unexpectedly expect the defeat of Takeda Katsurai's family? Because Shingen died early. However, he had left a heavy legacy for Katsurai and Nobuka before his death. If it were not Katsurai, the Takeda family would continue to be the strongest iron wall east of Oda Nobunaga. What legacy did Shingen leave for his son and grandson? Everyone is actually very clear that Shingen has three legacy: one is the four ministers of Takeda, who are the masters.
Bashi Nobuya, Naito Masatoto, Yama Prefecture Masakini, and Takasaka Masatonomiya and Takeda Cavalry Legion, which had the strongest combat effectiveness at that time, this was the human legacy that Shingen left for his descendants; the second was the strong national resources centered on Koshu, mainly including gold mines and horses. This was the national legacy that Shingen left for his descendants. The third was the legendary "secret military gold" left for his descendants, which was the treasure of Takeda Shingen..."
Yuma Yasuda's entire attention was attracted by Shimazu Kokusa's words.
"The legendary treasure of Takeda Shingen is the 'secret military gold' left to his descendants by Takeda Shingen. It was not in the official treasury of the Takeda family at that time, but was buried in various parts of the Kafari country in the form of secret treasures. Because the Kafari gold mine is rich in gold, and there is a gold-punching group called the 'Kingshanzhong' under Takeda Shingen specializing in the excavation of gold veins, the abundant gold production made Takeda Shingen the first person in Japan to mint gold coins. The huge gold production and Takeda Shingen's years of operation... It is said that Takeda Shingen's treasure is mainly gold, a huge military expense that is enough to bring the Takeda family back to life. It is the secret military expense that Takeda Shingen left to his grandson to dominate the world. Unfortunately, the incompetent Takeda Katsurai did not even have the ability to keep his son high. With the demise of the Takeda family, Takeda Shingen's treasure was buried underground..."
"But, where is this treasure?" Yuma Yasuda finally couldn't help asking.
Shimazu Kokusa said slowly:
"Where is Takeda Shingen's treasure buried? People have never given up looking since the day the Takeda family was destroyed. The Jiafei country is not large in area, but there are many mountains and is a famous mountain country. Shingen actually kept the treasure in that mountain, but there are many different opinions. Although many people tried to dig Shingen's treasure, due to their limited mining ability, and no one knew the exact location of Shingen's treasure, this treasure has always been a legend... The convincing treasure buried place is Kurokawa Kinshan. It is said that a couple had discovered the treasure here. But their story is like many secret treasure legends. The couple ended up being plotted to death. The tragic death of this couple makes people wonder if there is a mysterious organization that has been secretly guarding the legendary treasure?"
Yuma Yasuda was thrilling. He was continuing to ask about the treasure. Shimazu Kokusa suddenly said: "Which battle was the battle that caused the Takeda family to suffer a crushing defeat?"
"Of course it's the Battle of Longevity." Yuma Yasuda couldn't think about it.
Shimazu Kokusa nodded: "Yes, this battle is the beginning of the defeat of the Takeda family..."
In May of the third year of Toshima, Takeda Katsurai surrounded Tokugawa Ieyasu's son-in-law Oupei Nobucao in Nagashi Castle. At that time, Nagashi Castle had only 500 guards. Tokugawa Ieyasu asked his ally Oda Nobunaga for help. On May 18, Oda Nobunaga's reinforcements arrived and met with Tokugawa Ieyasu.
When Takeda Katsurai learned that Tokugawa Ieyasu and Oda Nobunaga's reinforcements arrived, he gave up his siege of Nagashinobu Castle and continued to march towards Kiyoidahara. His intention was to let the enemy move with him. In this way, he could play the strengths of his cavalry. But he ignored his rear. Oda Nobunaga learned that Takeda Katsurai continued to advance and ordered his generals to seize the Katsurai mountain village. In this way, Takeda Katsurai's rear route was cut off. In order to ensure his retreat, he had to turn around and fight Oda Nobunaga's camp in front of Oda Nobunaga's camp. When he found that Oda Nobunaga's camp was set up in a depression, he decided to use cavalry to rush down from a high place, trying to break through Oda Nobunaga's formation in one fell swoop.
On the morning of May 21, when Takeda Katsura's cavalry rushed to Oda Nobunaga's camp, they were blocked by the horse guard. At this time, Oda Nobunaga's musketeers began to fire their guns. In addition to being farther than the range of bows and arrows, the muskets also frightened the horses. After the third row of guns were released, Takeda Katsura's cavalry was either shot to death, or trampled to death by horses, or lost control of the war horses, and chaos. Akabe, the elite cavalry run by the Takeda family for generations, was completely defeated.
After the first wave of offensives was blocked by the horse guard railings, the Takeda Army was baptized by iron cannons and suffered a lot of damage. However, as time passed, the firepower of the iron cannons was no longer there, so the defense of horse guards became a white war.
The second wave of the Takeda Army's offensive was not as active as the first wave. The coalition forces took the initiative to jump out of the horse guards to fight the Takeda Army several times, but they were all repelled. Xin Lian pursued the second horse guards and was repelled.
The Takeda Army's offensive gradually became fierce and he entered the Red Preparatory Team. The third wave of attack broke through the third horse barrier and approached Nobunaga's own formation. However, the main general Kobata Nobusaki who commanded the third wave died in battle.
Then the Takeda army sent a fourth wave of assault to break through the gaps of the spreading waves. Oda Nobunaga's infantry defense and hard-working fierce battle finally repelled the four waves.
The fifth wave of the Racecourse Nobuya team went around to the left wing of the coalition forces as early as the third wave of attack, and then entered the railing to assault the Sakuma team, Hashishiba team, and Takigawa team immediately moved to attack the Racecourse Nobuya team. The Takeda army finally retreated at a disadvantage, and the Oda Tokugawa coalition began to pursue.
This is the beginning of the defeat of the Takeda elites and destruction.
Shimazu Kokuha said in a daze: "At that time, the Matsuki Shinshu family was a wealthy family in Shinshu, one of the three families of Shinno. The leader of the Fukuo Fifty-three families of Koga was the same clan. Kitasaku County was the base, and it belonged to Takeda Shingen and was the most capable assistant of Takeda Shingen. Among them, there was a famous female ninja Chiyomi, who was a descendant of the Matsuki family. Her husband, Moritsuki Shingen, was the nephew of Takeda Shingen and married into the Matsuki family. In the battle of Nagashino, Moritsuki Shingen was killed in battle. In order to prevent him from breaking it, Takeda Shingen's nephew Nomasa inherited the Matsuki family business..."
During the Warring States Period, Japan caused a large number of orphans. The Takeda family chose beautiful girls to train them to dance around the country, and often devoted themselves to the wandering girl "Hoki Witch" who was wandering with men. The Comeda witch had no border restrictions and could come and go anywhere in the country. From Kanto to Kannei, singing and dancing back and forth, and selling spring to collect various kinds of information and then reported it to Shingen one by one by the contact person. In fact, it was the female ninja who collected intelligence for the Takeda family.
Takeda Shingen gave the mission of raising a female ninja to Chiyomi Mizuki and gave her the position of "The leader of the witches of Kakai Shinno two countries". So Chiyomi Mizuki opened a training ground for "Kakai Shinno Wizard" in the Koji Pavilion in Nitsu Village, Koprefecture County, Shinshu. There were more than 200-300 girls who learned omasu, prayer, ninjutsu, body protection, and the best techniques that could seduce their opponents when their opponents were male.
Yuma Yasuda didn't know why the headmaster suddenly mentioned Chiyomi. Shimazu Kokuha said at this time: "The legend of Takeda treasure is true, and Chiyomimi is one of the responsible people to protect the treasure..."
When he heard this, Yuma Yasuda was shocked.
Although he had already confirmed this when Shimazu Kokusa began to talk about the treasure, he couldn't help but surprise him when he really said it from Shimazu Kokusa's mouth.
Shimazu Kokuhi gritted his teeth and said as if he had made a great determination: "I know where the treasure is; I know who protects the treasure; I know how many people guarding the treasure, I also know..."
He glanced at Yumasato Yasuda: "Originally, this was the secret of my Shimazu family. Only the family governors could know it. But now the Ming army has entered Tsurumaru Castle in a large scale, and the matter is already very urgent. I have decided to live and die with Tsuraru Castle. My children have been taken out by Mr. Oiyan, but the whereabouts of Takeda's treasure must not be obscured!"
Yuma Yasuda's heartbeat, and Shimazu Kokuha's words were exactly the same as his thoughts:
"Mr. Yasuda, you are the person I trust the most. If Binxing wants to avenge me and revitalize my Shimazu family, he will definitely not be able to lack the assistance of this treasure. Now, I want to tell you all the whereabouts of this treasure. When I have the strength, I will snatch this treasure back from the hands of those guardians and think that my Shimazu family will use it!"
"Mr. General!" Yumasato Yasuda said loudly: "How dare I take such a burden?"
"You can, you can, and you must do it too." Shimazu Kokuha said seriously: "No matter how difficult it is, please keep this secret. The reason why I didn't tell Binxing was because I was afraid that he would be too young and would be impatient. Mr. Yasuda, please take this responsibility."
Yu Yasuda was silent for a long time, and then fell to his knees:
Chapter completed!
