Prime Minister Bizen

Chapter 1 Bizen's First Sun

In the early morning of March 1573st in the first year of Tianzheng (21), when the residents of Shishan Castle just got up and picked up their farm tools to prepare for spring plowing, the Shishan Otemon gate suddenly opened, and several horsemen galloped out from the gate, and Erdao galloped away. Summon the powerful clans in the area to come to Shishan City to announce the birth of Yuxi's family members.

For the 41-year-old Ukita Nao family, the family has recovered step by step from the family fortune to a powerful family spanning the two countries of Bizen and Bichu. The Nao family has always insisted on restoring the family business. No heir is his last heart disease. .

Not long after, as the first ray of sunlight from the east shone in the imperial palace of Shishan City, Ukita Nao's family walked into the council hall with a baby in their hands. The rare smile of an aged wise man.

"Everyone, this is the heir of the Uki family—Hachiro!" The Ukita Nao family faced everyone and held Hachiro to show to the retainers without even lowering to the left.

"Hayi, I wish my lord good fortune and long-term prosperity." "The ministers and others swear to be loyal to the young lord to the death."

In this way, Yu Xiduo, the lord who held Bizen Mino County, Erdao County, Jingao County, Beizhong Duyu County, and Heyang County with a hundred thousand stones, ushered in a new heir.

--------------

In the first month of the 6th year of Tianzheng, a team of more than 5000 people rumbled out of Shishan City. The leader was a veteran who was nearly 5 years old but had a firm face. The former Ukido was able to rule the roost in Sanyo, wandering in the capital of Maori and Oda.

Turning his head and looking to the side, there is a young general sitting on a 1m5 tall horse, officially Ukita's interpreter, and in his arms is a 5.6-year-old child who is blinking his big shiny eyes and scanning his elder brother.

'This is the 25-year-old Quan's family. Sekihara was merciless when he hit me. Hachiro thought to himself.

That's right, this child is Li Zhiming, a Chinese who traveled through time in Okayama. Although he liked the history of the Warring States Period in Japan since he was a child, he is mainly familiar with the three dragons of Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu. The story of Aotian, the understanding of the other big names below is limited to one or two famous stories.

It would be much more stable if he was allowed to go to the angel round to invest in Brother Xinchang.No matter how bad it is to go to the Takeda family and the Nagao family, he can still leave a place with his understanding of history, but he happened to travel to the late Warring States period, and it was still the Yuxi family. Li Zhiming knows the most about the Yuxi family. The key is to take the enemy's daughter to make the enemy think that they have reconciled and supported the restoration of the territory all the way, and finally chopped off his father-in-law.

The Zhi family's son Xiujia (that's me) is a love saint, but he doesn't know anything about governing the country. In the end, the Ukita Rebellion happened, and all the core retainers of Ukido left, which led to the intention to serve the country in the Battle of Sekigahara Unable to kill the thief, he was finally exiled to a deserted island to survive on an ark.

'Since I'm here, I absolutely don't want to spend the rest of my life digging wild vegetables and gnawing bark to live. At worst, I will learn from my fellow brother Qiuqiu, and say that justice is in the Eastern Army. Always keep it for me. '

'Forget it, why do you think so long-term, let's solve the immediate matter first. 'That's right, Hachiro, who is only 6 years old, is begging Zhi's family to take him to Yuecheng together.Calculating the time, it was the second time of the joint battle last month. The Xiu family felt that Yuxi's retainers were withered. The first goal he set for himself was to accommodate talents, but now it is the famous big boss in the late Warring States period. Most of them have already appeared on the stage and have masters. It is really not easy to subdue them. We can only hope to defeat one and subdue the other.

Isn't it just now that he knew that last month's joint battle was going to start immediately, Hachiro begged Nao's family to come and see the real joint battle, in fact, he was to subdue Shikanosuke Yamanaka and Akigami Hisashi's family, and for this reason he even gave a childish voice behind his back After watching Sun Tzu's Art of War, Zhi's family thought he had given birth to Long Aotian, came out to think over and over again, and finally decided to bring Bazai to see the world.Zhongjia, the younger brother of Ukita Nao's family, heard the news, and just sent his son Quanjia, who was in Yuanfu, to join him in the "first battle".

Yes, this is the first time for the 16-year-old Quan Jia to play.This is already an advanced rookie in terms of the average age of 12 years old in Japan.And his initial mission is also very simple: protect Hachiro.

Ukita Nao's troops went to Osafune and then turned to the north. Osafune Sadakin led Chubizen's 3000 people to join in, and then passed Tenjinyama Castle and waited for Misakuni's 5000 people for one night before heading to Harima.

The army arrived at the city of Shangyue in mid-March. For Ukita's army, this was a battle that must be won.Yuxi has a population of 3 to 1, while the Nizi family in the city has less than 3000 people.Hachiro followed the Zhi family and watched the Zhi family arrange the formation skillfully, and then quickly started the military discussion.

Hachiro sat cross-legged behind Zhi's family and didn't say a word. He knew that the battle against Shangyue City this time would be extremely difficult, but there was no suspense in the early stage. He already had a plan in his heart.

At dawn on the second day, Ukita's army began to march out with the blowing of the conch horn.In the front row is Shangyue Jingzhen, an old minister of the Urakami family. Shangyue Castle was his residence, but now it is used by the Oda family to house the Nizi family.Jingzhen of Shangyue, who desperately wanted to get back the old collar, worked extraordinarily hard. Since retreating to Takenaka in the last joint battle in Shangyue, she had mobilized all her troops, and finally gathered 450 people to participate in the battle, and attacked the city of Shangyue Takeuchi Jiusheng as a team Responsible for leading the Jinshan ants to attack the city.

"WooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooDuring the Warring States period in Japan, there were few ways to attack the city, and most of the means of attack were ants attacking Otemon.Shangyue City is not a strong city, but it is a mountain city after all. The ramp up the mountain in front of Otemon Gate is narrow and cannot give full play to the advantages of Ukita's army. People on one side of the mountain road keep shooting arrows at Shangyue Army. It caused effective damage and disrupted the rhythm of the army's siege last month.Finally, the troops were withdrawn under the order of the Zhi family. Following the withdrawal of the troops last month, there were bursts of shouts in the city, which seemed to express the joy of victory.

"Hmph, the battle of trapped beasts." Hachiro, who was standing in the opposite side of the Niaojian Mountain's main formation, let out a hint of ridicule.The interpreter next to him glanced at the younger brother, and said with a smile, "the opposite is the deer from Izumo, and Yankuro was defeated by him." The interpreter said that Yankuro Hachiro had no impression, but hearing what his brother said might be What a powerful general "Brother, who is Yankuro? Do you hold any position in the family, are you in the battle now?"

In Hachiro's impression, the main players in the first Tsukijo battle were Misaku and Tobizen.And the main force of this battle is precisely the last troop. If the guy named Yankuro is still there, maybe he can be taken under his command.The interpreter was stunned when he heard this, and said sadly, "Mabi Hikokuro is serious, he was born in the mother's clothes of my uncle, and I hugged you when you were young, but it's a pity that I was attacked by a deer in the city at night when I was in battle a month ago. killed."

Hachiro's expression darkened when he heard that, and the interpreters thought that Hachiro remembered Kazuhiko Kuro's past grief, so he didn't say much, but Hachiro was thinking, "It's a bit of a general who can be sent out by his father to attack a city independently." It's a pity that I came too late and couldn't be saved. 'Suddenly Hachiro thought of something again' No, I remember Yukimori Yamanaka picked up Niko Katsuhisa in Kyoto at the beginning of the second Kazukijo battle, and finally gave up Kazukijo, how did he fight?Could it be my butterfly wings?But I haven't done anything yet! '

Just thinking that Jingzhen's reserve team returned to the main formation last month, Hachiro looked from a distance and roughly counted, the good guy was still more than 400 people, and he couldn't help complaining in his heart, "There is a lot of thunder and little rain, and I have been working all day. Also played a lonely.As far as the Japanese Sengoku clan's team is concerned, even if there is Su Xiong's supervising team behind them, they are guaranteed to work without any effort. '

With the return of last month's reserve team, Yu Xiduo's attack on the first day of last month's city came to an anticlimactic end.Hachiro followed the Quan family back to the backstage to listen to his father and his retainers discussing the situation. Hachiro, who was still planning to just listen and not do anything, couldn't help laughing when he heard Takeuchi Hisamori's words, "The city is strong, and the soldiers work hard, but unfortunately they are too weak." said.It immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Hachiro, do you have any ideas?" Naoya said with a somewhat unhappy face. The Takeuchi family is not a retainer of the Uki family, but a former retainer of Urakami. 4w8000 stone, is the most powerful wealthy family in Meizuo.The Takeuchi family, who did not completely surrender to the Ukita Nao family, said that Ukita's allies are more appropriate.Just now Hachiro's laughter was obviously mocking, although the Nao family could see that the Takeuchi Army did not try their best. More than 1600 of the 800 troops in the army participated in the siege of the ants, and only one or two died after fighting for a whole day. Incapable?But face still has to be given.

Hachiro noticed his mistake. This Takeuchi is a master of swordsmanship, and he is almost 80 years old now. At the age of 30, he combined Jujitsu to create the Takeuchi style, which has been passed down to modern times.

Hachiro quickly tidied up his appearance and said, "I'm very sorry, Daisuke Chubu (the hereditary Daisuke Chuuchi from the ancestor of Hisamori Takeuchi), I was laughing at the garrison in the city last month who didn't know current affairs. The 1w3000 people in my family are 16 times that of the garrison in the city Even if one mouthful of saliva can flood Shangyue City (Last month is a mountain city, this is actually impossible) and there are swordsmen like Daisuke Zhongwu leading the attack. They don't want to surrender and resist stubbornly. I feel that Daisuke Chubu is short of someone to test the knife again. I feel a little embarrassed when I think of the scene after the completion." Hachiro's words eased the embarrassment of the scene, and everyone continued to brag about Kenhao Takeuchi's horse fart.At this moment, Hachiro said again, "Uncle Juro, is there any way to climb up the mountain behind Shangyue Castle to drive directly to Honmaru?"

Japan's mountain castles are not completely built on the mountain. Most of them are built on the mountainside. Due to the difficulty of construction and the problem of material transportation, even Azuchi is built at the foot of the mountain, and the small valley city built entirely on the mountain is indeed there. Building the castle tower on the top of a few hundred meters seems to be a majestic castle, but the small valley castle built on the mountain is more like a long worm. In the end, when the Oda army attacked Otemon from the front to attract the main force, Hashiba Hideyoshi came from the middle of the mountain to Jing Jiwan cut off the head and the tail and was slowly taken down.

Last Moon City was built on the mountainside, and what Hachiro meant was whether we can follow the example of attacking Xiaogu City before and after attacking the city in one fell swoop.Balang's words seemed to cheer up the Zhi family and all the retainers, and they looked at Yue Jingzhen one after another.

"The back mountain is relatively steep, but there is indeed a small road connecting Nishinomaru, but there is a gate there, which is stronger. It is better for me to attack Nishinomaru tomorrow. Please Master Takeuchi to be in charge of Oteguchi's attack." The generals finished listening. They all nodded as if they agreed with the meaning of the question, and finally established the attack strategy for tomorrow under Zhijia's typesetting, and dispersed one after another.

After the generals dispersed, the Nao family severely reprimanded Hachiro for his unreasonableness, but in the end he was defeated by Hachiro's coquetry.Ukita Nao's family is known as the Fox of Bizen, the evil thieves of China, but he, who is old and well-behaved, really loves Hachimaru.

After pretending to be reprimanded, he ordered Quan Jia and his mother to take Hachiwan down to wash and rest.Hachimaru and Kanjia walked out of the shogunate with a loud voice, just in time to see Shangyue City under the moonlight, right?Due to the lack of food during the Warring States Period in Japan, even the samurai suffered from night blindness, so the situation in the field was very low. However, because Yukimori Yamanaka did indeed attack the Ukita Army at night a month ago, Ukita was still brightly lit at night when he went to battle. The next few reserve teams are ready.Perhaps it was because of the darkness under the lights that it was not clear from Ukita's main camp to the upper moon city, but with his back to the moonlight, Hachiro seemed to see a trace of cooking smoke.

'No, Nizi's house is going to run away! '
