  Chapter 336 39. Worry about the safety of Xiangshan people

  Shinshu Matsushiro!

  That's not where Yukuki Sanada's Matsushiro clan was located, but it was also the hometown of Sakuma Sakuyama!

  Sakuma Kojiyama, who was recalled to Matsushiro by Yukuki Sanada last year to manufacture and develop glassware, would not even dare to imagine if something went wrong.

  Previously, I just prepared that Sakuma Zoyama might be silly embryo Tenchu ​​who was filled with **** in his mind, so when Chuemon ordered a revolver in Nagasaki, he also wanted to get one for Sakuma Zoyama. It's really going to happen, as long as it's not the kind of casual murder without warning, size can be considered a life-saving method.

  But this person is not as good as the sky, so there was a sudden earthquake, and it happened in Matsushiro. Judging from the sense of shaking in the vicinity of Edo, this earthquake may reach magnitude six or seven, or even higher.

  After this trip, I saved these good brothers, and how heartbroken it is to die Chuemon!

  In the feudal base city of Edo, the samurai all over the city, ninety-nine percent of the people are depressed. The shogunate’s annual salary is an idea, and there are many people who have lived a lifetime.

  No wonder Jiang Chuan Yinglong was so excited when he saw Sheng Haizhou. Without him, it is really rare!

  In the past few years, Chungemon has known a lot of people, who can really communicate with each other intimately, and lead him to be friends whom his wife can’t avoid. There are only a few people.

  Tadaemon, who was uneasy, immediately called Shintaro Terazawa, and asked him to go to the city to find out how great the losses were and how severe the casualties were in Shinshu. In particular, I would like to ask whether Matsuyo-fan reported the details of the casualties.

  Tadaemon also fainted. The earthquake happened only two days ago, and Shinano was able to send the news of the earthquake to Edo, and it was already galloping day and night. In such a short period of time, how can it be possible to count the losses in the domain, let alone those who died or injured?

  Sure enough, Shintaro Terazawa did not bring back any useful news. I only know that because of the abundant rains after the beginning of spring, and the melting of snow on the Shinano mountains, the earthquake triggered extremely serious mudslides. For many villages under the mountain or on the slopes, the disappearance of whole villages and villages is often just a blink of an eye.

  Hachiro Amano knows that Tadaoemon and Sakuma Kojiyama have a very good relationship, and come forward to relieve them. Matsushiro Castle, the main castle of the Matsushiro Domain, was actually the famous Kaizu Castle during the Warring States Period in Japan.

  Speaking of Haijin Castle, Chuemon suddenly understood, because Haijin Castle is a complete flat castle built along the Chikuma River. There are no small hills on the left and right, it is a whole large plain. As a flat city, it relies entirely on huge artificial and natural water surface as the main defense.

  In other words, it is impossible for Sakuma Xiangshan to encounter a mudslide!

  It makes sense. When Tademon thought of this, the tight string in his heart suddenly loosened in half. Humans cannot stop things like mudslides, but in an earthquake in broad daylight, this person always knows to run into the open ground. It's hard to say that the Japanese have other skills. The skills that run off in an earthquake should be the number one in the world.

  And as we said, most Japanese houses are single-story buildings. Like in Edo, many houses are covered with wooden boards or straw on the roof. The supporting rafters are all bamboo poles. Anyway, they will be burned in three to five years. There is no durability, as long as they are cheap and can live.

  The most fearful thing is not that the house collapses and kills people, but the house does not run out. Although they may not be crushed to death, the large-scale fire that follows may kill people.

  After all, people who are crushed on their bodies or legs are difficult to move. The pain caused by the injury and the possible fractures that may accompany them make them unable to escape. In the end, they can only watch themselves being burned to death.

  No, you can’t think like that. This is because you scare yourself, and you still have to wait for the specific report from Shinano to be submitted. Ordinary people who died may also be dead, and there will be no record, but if the feudal vassal is killed, at least there is a qualification to be recorded. After all, in theory, they are all soldiers who will serve the feudal lord. Once Tokugawa Ikei is called, they will have to pick up swords and guns and fight with the lord.

  But this mind is always at peace, why don't you try to check it out? Such a thought came to Chuyoumon's mind. After all, after such a large-scale disaster, the local people needed the relief of the feudal lord, and the people of the heavenly leader needed the help of the shogunate. However, most of the local vassal states had no money, and when they encountered a famine, they always asked the shogunate for loans for disaster relief.

  The shogunate usually sends disaster relief ambassadors at this time, not only to imprison money and food to the disaster area, but also to help the people of the heavenly leaders who have been affected by the disaster. However, this position is usually held by a pro-fan or genealogical daimyo, after all, it needs to be handed over with other daimyos, and the status is too low to make it work.

  Tadaemon is responsible for overseeing the Shinagawa Fort. There is no reason why he should not be allowed to leave Edo. In the eyes of the shogunate, building a fort was more important than the death of a few ordinary people due to the earthquake.

  In a hurry, news suddenly came that the temple's accomplices Fan and Akashi Hou Songhei Qixuan were appointed as disaster relief messengers, and were ordered to go to Shinano, and the affected Kai and Echigo places to inspect and deal with the disaster.

That’s great, Chuemon immediately went to Masanori Matsudaira, and asked him to look for the whereabouts of Sakuma Zoyama~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Look at Chuemoni in such anxiousness, Masanori Matsudaira also heard of Sakuma Zoyama. Knowing that this person is the Lanxue fellow, he agreed.

  Tadaemon on this side has not left yet, the front gate on the other side reported that Yukira Sanada, the first son of the Matsushiro clan, was visiting. It is estimated that this person is worried about his own collar and came to ask Matsuhira Qixuan to help borrow money from the shogunate.

  As we said before, Yukuki Sanada is the great-grandson of Tokugawa Yoshizong. Yukura Sanada and Massuno Matsudaira are actually cousins ​​within three generations. The two are closely related by blood, and many things can be said straightforwardly.

  Matsuhira Kisho also refused to let Chuemon go. There is nothing to avoid, because the Sanada family has urgently requested Tokugawa Ieki. Now it was just to ask Songping Qi Xuankan to help out on his cousin's sake.

  There is no nonsense. Yukura Sanada will leave after he asks. He has to ask other shogunate pro-family genealogists for help. The disaster is urgent. If you set aside loans earlier, you can save people earlier.

  I don't know if it was too impatient or not paying attention. Yukura Sanada fell while getting on the horse and fainted on the spot.

  Hurry back to the mansion and ask the doctor to come for medical treatment. Even the Dutch doctors were invited. It was night when news came out suddenly.

  Sanada Yukura passed away!
