Chapter 452 One-Eyed Soldier

Tokaido, Tomeng Kingdom, outside Utsuyama Castle, in a wine house on the shore of Hamami Lake.

Because it is close to the pier where passenger ships pick up and drop off guests, it is almost noon again, the wine house is already very lively at this time.

The spacious cafe is now full of sitting. The rogues are talking slang from all over the world and chatting about the rumors they have seen, including boasting about their past courage, aiming to make others look up to them. Some people also think of the defeated master in the past, the lord who committed suicide by seducing his stomach, and their hard wandering life. Suddenly, they can't help but leave a few drops of the so-called heroic tears of warriors.

More ronin people sat silently at the wine table, holding the wine pot in despair, drinking sake in small sips with a plate of dried radish.

At this time, the curtain at the door of the Safari was suddenly pulled open, and a torn ronin limped in with a slaughter. After entering the Safari, he took off the eye mask from one of the eyes with his right hand, then glanced at the situation inside the Safari, and finally his eyes fell on the only empty wooden table in the Safari.

"Ding, ding..." He limped to the table again with a knife. The guy in the cafe seemed to have been familiar with this person for a long time. As soon as the person sat down, the guy smiled and put a bowl of sake and a small bowl of dried radish in front of the person, and then quietly walked away.

The one-eyed man placed the knife on his legs, then gently picked up the bowl of sake and took a small sip.

"Spicy and sour!" This was the only taste he felt from this sake. Just like everything he had experienced since his birth, it was also very sour and sour.

The one-eyed man was born in Yamamoto Village, Fuji-gun, Sankawa. His father was Sadayuki Yamamoto and was the eldest of the Makino family, the lord of the city of Mikawa Kubo. Because he was the second son of the Yamamoto family. In addition, he was blind in his left eye and disabled right leg, his father prepared to make him become a monk. Finally, at the age of fifteen, he was adopted by Darishi Kazuemon Sadayuki Orishi Kazuemon Sadayuki, who was also the oldest of the Makino family, and changed his name to Darishi Kazue, but unfortunately, the legitimate son of Sadayuki Orishi was born soon, so he was deposed again. Since then, he has wandered around in many places to learn swordsmanship and military studies, and has been renamed Yamamoto Kazusuke. As a ronin, he has traveled all over the country and is proficient in the situation of various countries. He is good at astronomy, military tactics, gun art, city building, and intelligence.

A few days ago, he asked Mei Yue Seongyo (Imakawa Yoshimoto), the eleventh-generation governor of the Imakawa family, to become an official, but he was rejected by the Imakawa family because of his appearance.

Lost, sourness... all kinds of emotions came one after another. At this time, Yamamoto Kansuke felt the future was extremely dim. He slowly drank wine, ate dried radishes, and lowered his head to ponder.

"Crash!"

At this moment, the curtain of the Sakai was pulled open again. Two more ronin came in. After entering the Sakai, the first ronin also glanced at the situation inside the Sakai, and finally fixed his eyes on Yamamoto Kansuke's table.

He smiled and nodded to his companion behind him who seemed to be a follower. After understanding, the latter immediately turned around and left the Kanya. The remaining ronin came directly to the opposite side of Yamamoto Kansuke's table and sat down.

"Please invite three bowls of sake."

Ronin said to the owner of the Sakai. His voice sounded a bit hoarse. During this period, Ronin was running around, sometimes he didn't even have time to take a sip of water. Today, he had a rare opportunity to take the opportunity to rest. Ronin naturally had to enjoy it.

"Hey, have you heard it? Sankawa's guard gave birth to a legitimate son and was named Takechiyo." A ronin next to him said. If Masara was here, he would know that this child called Takechiyo would be the future Tokugawa Ieyasu.

"You got the news too late, right? The legitimate son of the Matsuhide family was born at the end of last year."

"Speaking of this, the Oda family, Imakawa family and Matsuhei family fought fiercely in Kotosaka last year."

Last year, Oda and Imakawa were equal in the battle of Kotosaka, and it was hard to tell the difference. Osamu Yoshimoto, who came from the Jun Mansion, fled into Okazaki Castle in a very embarrassing way. On the surface, it seemed that the Oda army won the victory, but the Oda army failed to take Okazaki Castle in one fell swoop. Instead, it was attacked by Hirotaka Matsuhira and retreated back to Anxiang Castle in panic. Imakawa Yoshimoto saw that the Oda army had withdrawn in Okazaki Castle, so he packed up the remaining troops and returned to Jun Mansion. Ohashinobu Oda Nobuhidun also left Sun Sanro Nobuhiro Nobuhidun in Anxiang and retreated Ohashi's Ancient Ferry early. Imakawa Yoshimoto's expedition ended in failure, but Oda Nobuhidun also lost his troops and did not get any benefits. If anything left behind in this war, it could only be to bury deeper hatred between the two armies.

Regarding the discussions about the Kotosaka battle last year, both Yamamoto Kansuke and the Randren sitting opposite Yamamoto Kansuke listened carefully.

The reason why Yamamoto Kazusuke listened carefully was that he happened to be not in Mikawa last year and knew very little about the situation of that battle, so he took this opportunity to learn more. And the Ronin was trying to collect intelligence.

"Hey, the battle between Takeda's family and the "Four Generals of Shinno" in Shinno last year was also very fierce?" Seeing many Mikawa, the local ronin of Tono was boasting about the bravery of local samurai in the battle of Kotosaka, and some ronin from Shinno and Kafari immediately stopped.

It turned out that in June of the tenth year of Astronomy (1541), after Takeda Haruno exiled his father Nobuki, the news immediately reached Shinono. Suwa Laige and Ogasawara Nagasawa Nagasawa Nagasawa immediately smelled the opportunity and decided to take advantage of the troublesomeness of Takeda. So that month, the two families gathered 10,000 troops and marched into the country of Kafari. Takeda Haruno calmly deployed. The 6,000 Takeda army set up an orderly formation at Shinokawa Kawahara and launched a battle of Qiazaki with the coalition forces with Suwabe as the vanguard. Takeda was united. After fierce battle, the Takeda army won more than 2,000 heads, and the joint army hurriedly returned to Shinono.

However, in the 11th year of Astronomy (1542), Kitashino's Murakami Yoshiki also began to get ready. Suwa Naoge and Ogasawara Nagasawa, who were defeated in Nagasawa, were quite unwilling to accept the failure caused by Harushino's strange plan. These three families then brought Kiso Yoshiaki, a wealthy family member of the Chima County. The four families, known as the "Four Generals of Shinono", formed a coalition of nearly 20,000 people, and rushed into the country of Kafari. Takeda Harushino took the defensive posture of storing grain to build a fortification to confuse the enemy.

On March 8, he led the Takeda army to march 8,000 people in an urgent marche, and arrived at Sezawa's Oohara on the morning of the 9th. The Shinno coalition immediately made some preparations to facilitate the Takeda army to start the war. After repeated tragic tug-of-war, the Shinno coalition finally retreated, and the Takeda army captured more than 1,000 heads of the enemy, including the well-known enemy generals Junnohara Chenosuke and Tsuyama Shogo. Although Sezawa's sudden attack experienced some danger, it finally ended with Takeda Haruno's victory.

The reputation of the Kasumika Takeda Haruno's Tiger was gradually learned by the powerful people around him.

Being able to win thousands of heads in one battle can indeed be called a great victory. As the description of the record of the Tiger of Ao Fei, several ronin people became more and more excited. Finally, they even talked about the Tiger of Ao Fei, who participated in the battle at the age of eighteen and scored several heroic deeds.

As soon as these words came out, it was the turn of the ronin from Echigo to stop doing it.

"Eego's Nagata Keito. Have you heard his name?"

"Hehe, he is only fourteen years old this year, but he has become the lord of a city. He has even defeated several times his invading enemies many times, and even conquered a large number of wealthy families."

Ransomers are talking about Kenshin Uesugi. Because Nagata Haruki, who inherited the position of the Nagata family and the position of Echizen Guardian, was weak in physical condition and did not serve as the commander of the military general, he was despised by other forces in the country. In order to alleviate his own dilemma, Haruki tried to help strengthen his rule (i.e. Kenshin Uesugi), who was just fourteen years old, to help strengthen his rule and settle in Tosui Castle in the central Echizen. While ensuring that the Nagata family is in the central Echizen territory, he restrained him

Honchou Masao, Katsumasao, Nakajo Fujizi and other hostile forces. At the beginning, the nearby wealthy families did not take this little hairy child seriously at all. However, after Kenshin arrived in the castle, he received assistance from his mother's family, Nagao Nagao and Tochi Castle Yomoto Nagao Minobazou and others. This year, he repelled the hostile forces from many times and soon conquered the wealthy families such as Yasuda Nagahide, Hojo Takahiro, and Kokawa Nagato. Echinho Ryuusugi Kenshin also embarked on his "military god".

"Haha, the people you said just now are not as good as the one I will mention." Just as Mikawa, Shinno, and Echigo's ronin boasted about the celebrities of their birthplace, a burly ronin suddenly stood up and shouted.

This person was just another ronin who had just followed the ronin sitting opposite Kansuke Yamamoto and entered the Sakura. Shortly after entering the Sakura, he went out. But at some point, he returned to the Sakura and sat on another table and started drinking.

The many roninmen in the Kanban were immediately attracted by the sudden actions of the burly ronin.

"Haha!" Seeing that it finally attracted the attention of everyone in the cafe, the burly rogue smiled proudly, and then said, "Kyushu. Have you heard of it?"

After hearing this, some ronin nodded to show that they knew, while others were a little confused at first, then quickly reacted and quickly asked the people around who knew Kyushu.

"I just came back from there, and a pretty good person has recently appeared there." Kuiwu picked up a bowl of sake and took a sip and continued, "Have you heard of Xiguo Shuangying?"

Among the ronin who originally said that he knew Kyushu, some immediately nodded again. However, at this time, the ronin who said that he knew this title was less than one-third of the total number of ronin in the Kwai House.

This is a matter of no way. This era lacks convenient means of transportation. Ordinary ronin only knows some information about their location. As for information about a little further away, they really don’t know anything.

Of course, Yamamoto Kamsuke, who had visited Kyushu a few years ago, was definitely familiar with it. However, it was the first time he heard about the title of "Shi Guo Twin Heroes". Has there been many heroes in the past two or three years in Kyushu? So, the news about Kyushu that burly ronin at the center of Kyushu immediately aroused his interest.
