Chapter 31 Daheng City

There was an extra city, and the recruitment work was urgent. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I visited Nobuka Shintotsu, who taught Xinyinliu in Qingzhou Town. I selected 500 Xinyinliu disciples in the dojo as the guards of Daheng City. More than 400 of them participated in the surprise attack on Thornsama Mountain. At that time, more than 600 people from Shangquan Nobuka Shintotsu died in battle. Nearly 200 of them were my most casualties. You must say that my iron artillery, the qiben and the ninja army had died in total. There were less than 50 people in total. Of course, this was related to their cold weapon troops. The only ones who could directly threaten the iron artillery on the battlefield were the iron artillery soldiers. The families of the deceased were generous compensation, and only the orphans and widows were recruited into the whale house to do some simple work.

This is the first time that the Kudo family suffered numerous casualties after a large-scale battle. It is necessary to spend more money for a good reputation. A general who must make every soldier die without any scruples is a good general.

I chatted with several retainers such as Nobuka Uchizumi and others for a while, and before I knew it, I talked about minor casualties. I sighed, 'It would be great if there was an invulnerable armor. This time, thirty-seven of us died under the iron cannon.' The lead ball fired by the iron cannon contains lead poison, and even if it was not hit, it would die of poisoning infection. By the way, the arrow that Nobuka Uchizumi conspired to Imakawa Yoshimoto was also made of lead.

Maeda Kyoji laughed, "Why did the lord say such childish words? There is no armor in this world that is invulnerable to swords and guns?" Maeda Kyoji is now training the iron cannon team and is superstitious about the power of iron cannons. In his opinion, the iron cannon that can be shot through even the plate armor is almost invincible.

Ishikawa Yuemon suddenly inserted and said, "Actually, there are such things. They are just too expensive to build and cannot be equipped with a lot of equipment."

Maeda Keiji laughed, 'You don't want to make a plate armor weighing 200 kilograms. I admit that such a thick plate armor iron cannon cannot be penetrated, but you can't even wear it.'

Ishikawa Yuemon shook his head, 'I'm not kidding. The iron cannon is the sharpest spear, but it may not be able to penetrate silk. Among the ninja secret flow equipment, there is a treasure called Tiansai Treasure Armor. It uses silk for multiple layers of weaving. After it is done, it can be completely invulnerable to swords and guns. However, this Tiansai Treasure Armor is too expensive and cannot resist the impact of heavy weapons. Therefore, few people do it. If they do not defend against arrows, there is no problem with projectiles. It is just that the impact of projectiles and arrows will still cause some internal injuries.'

‘Wow. There is also such a good thing, don’t you take it out earlier.’ Shimakatsu shouted in shock, ‘A little impact force will not kill anyone. If you put a piece of iron armor outside, you can block most of the impact. Make a few for everyone.’

Ishikawa Yuemon gave Shirashima Katsushima a quick glance, 'You said it's easy. Just making a vest of a Tian Silkworm Armor requires 200 silos of silk, and it takes at least 600 silos to make a complete set. The two female ninjas who I can weave under my command have been doing for three months, and the lord's set has not been completed yet.'

I just knew this, and it turned out that part of the 3,000 guan special fee for Ishikawa Yuemon was spent on me. "Compared with the lives of the retainers, 600 guan is really nothing. Ishikawa Jun, let your subordinates wove more. I remember that many of the families of the Ninja Army had nothing to do, and they could divide some of the women into specializing in weaving silkworm armor. As for the cost, the special fee was 10,000 guan per month, and there was no need to report the account. Although the expensive expenses and slow organization speed could not make every foot wear silkworm armor, at least there should be no problem for the samurai of the samurai general to be equipped within one or two years.

All the retainers, 'The lord is wise and magical, and the bird is raw fish soup.'

I collected a lot of fun and completed the dressing change at the Whale House. I rushed to Daheng City on the third day of the Chinese New Year with a generous gift to Akechi Mitsuhide.

Although there is a big word in the name of Daheng City, it is much smaller than my Mogu City. As the city lord Akichi Mitsuhide watched the scenery of Daheng City on the way to the city, Maeda Keiji finally analyzed it with his professional perspective and quietly told me that Daheng City can be stationed with a maximum of 1,000 troops, and no matter how many more, it will be impossible to open it. Thinking about Akichi Mitsuhide's footsteps of only 800 people were fighting in Sanhe and Yuanjiang, I felt relieved.

After completing the procedures for handing over the letter, I apologized, "I snatched Brother Mingzhi's territory this time, please forgive me."

Akechi Mitsuhide laughed, 'Brother Kudo, stop pretending, Mrs. Nohime told me. I can still tell you the difference between a city in charge and a country in charge. Speaking of which, you are really generous. Mikawa is in charge, and Yoshida Castle has 50,000 stone territory, twice as big as here. You don't want it, but you can come to this broken place.'

I also laughed twice, "Isn't that far away? Besides, it's just a steward. If you can't collect the rent, you have to pay it for yourself." Actually, I also know that this kind of steward is very rich and the three rivers and one country is also a region with developed agricultural and water conservancy. Even if you don't get stuck every year, you don't have to get 10,000 stones and play it like playing.

Akechi Mitsuhide smiled and shook her head, "I can't compare to your brother Kudo, you are rich and powerful. We are all used to being poor, and we can't let go of the mouth when we see oil and water. No matter what, I have to thank you this time."

‘Don’t be busy thanking you first. To compensate you for giving up Daheng City, I have a gift for you.’ I took Akechi Mitsuhide to the ox cart and pulled away the linen cloth. There were two hundred brand new iron cannons on the cart. The gun oil on the gun was shining in the winter sun. I was shocked to see Akechi Mitsuhide, so I picked up an iron cannon and handed it to Akechi Mitsuhide to verify his true self, ‘Two hundred iron cannons. When I first arrived in Mikawa, don’t weaken the majesty of the Oda family.’

Akechi Mitsuhide played with the iron cannon in her hand with an incredible expression, "Brother Kudo, you confirm that it was given to me. These iron cannons cost 10,000 yuan. I can't afford it." According to the market price, I really can't get it, but my cost is only a few hundred yuan, otherwise the arms are huge profits.

‘What’s the point of money for us brothers? Brother Mingzhi’s archery technique is so good, it’s also good to use iron cannons.’

Before I could finish my words, Akichi Mitsuhide pulled me into the Tianshou Pavilion, which was only one floor in Daheng City. Akichi Mitsuhide clapped his hands and called the servants to instruct, "Please come out with the wife and the ladies." This is to show the goodness of the Tong family. Generally, the main characters of the two families must be all arrived. Obviously, I was not prepared enough today and came alone.

Akichi Mitsuhide first introduced me to his family, and then introduced his family to me one by one. When I introduced the three daughters Akichi Tamako, I took a look at it. Although it was a bit different from what I imagined, I was indeed a lovely girl.

When Akechi Mitsuhide left Daheng City with his family and generals, I learned to wave desperately on the city wall with a yellow handkerchief in the movie. Keer was so disgusting that he had goosebumps on the young people.
