I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

"Do you think common sense can restrain him?"
"If the situation requires it, I think he would even dare to attack Edo Castle, let alone Mount Koya."
"As for Ogata Yidao Zhai, he doesn't even need to talk about it."
"Killing the king, breaking down the Nijo Castle, destroying Shiranui, and defeating the shogunate army, these deeds that seem to be in the Arabian Nights, he did one after another."
"I don't think the words Koyasan and Buddhism can restrain him."
"According to the information currently known about Ogata Yidaosai, he is a person who has revenge."
"In order to settle accounts with us, the possibility of uniting with Uncle and the others to attack Mount Koya, I think it is not only possible, but also very great."
"Even if he doesn't want to settle accounts with us, he may choose to fight with Uncle and the others out of friendship."
"After all, he has a very good relationship with Uncle and the others."
"The battle in Osaka last night has taught us a profound lesson. Don't underestimate my uncle and Ogata Yidaosai."
"All in all, don't be negligent."
After finishing speaking, Toyotomi Nobuhide turned his gaze to Master Xianyuan next to him.
"The Venerable Master is entrusting you with the job of strengthening Koyasan's security. The Iga people who are now leaving to stay in Koyasan will be assigned to you for the time being."
"I see." Master Xianyuan nodded without any hesitation, then got up quickly, and trotted away from the banquet scene.
After Master Xianyuan left, Toyotomi Nobuhide glanced over the faces of everyone in the venue one by one.
"Although the battle of Osaka last night failed to kill Ogata Ittosai, it was not without success. We have very beautifully bent the planned plan to destroy the treasury and administrative capabilities of Osaka."
"Osaka's treasury and administrative capacity have been completely destroyed after a night of fighting last night and it will be difficult to recover in the short term."
"Osaka is not only an important town for the Edo shogunate to monitor the daimyos of the Western countries who have always been separated from the shogunate, but also the most important logistics center connecting the Eastern and Western countries."
"Without Osaka, the Edo shogunate's control over Xiguo will be greatly weakened, which will greatly weaken the power of the Edo shogunate in Kyoto, which has not yet recovered from the Tianming fire. This will pave the way for us to win over the daimyos of Xiguo in the future."
"At the same time, Osaka Port was destroyed and lost Osaka, the most important logistics and transshipment center. The huge manpower and material resources deployed by the Edo Shogunate in the Western Kingdom were difficult to transport back to the Eastern Kingdom."
"And those very few vassal states in the Western Kingdom who are loyal to the Edo Shogunate are also difficult to go to support the Edo Shogunate."
"So it means that we have successfully completed the first step in our great cause of destroying the Edo Shogunate."
"I have successfully cut off one arm of the Edo shogunate, so that the Edo shogunate can only rule half of Japan now, so that the Edo shogunate currently only has the resources of the Eastern Kingdom and can freely deploy them."
After all, Toyotomi Nobuhide put on a somewhat heroic smile.
"How? I didn't lie to you before, did I? I will definitely lead you to defeat the Edo Shogunate."
"Before, some people told me that the Edo shogunate owned the whole of Japan, how should we fight them."
"And now, with our strategy and hard work, there is only half of Japan that the Edo shogunate can currently own."
"How? Do you still think the Edo Shogunate is invincible?"
Toyotomi Nobuhide's remarks just now immediately changed the surrounding atmosphere.
When they learned that their own army could not encircle and suppress even a single Ogata, many people were so shocked that they looked sad.
But now, after listening to Toyotomi Nobuhide's words just now, many people's faces gradually looked better again.
"The situation in Osaka exceeded my expectations."
The people who hadn't looked good for a long time heard Toyotomi Nobuhide continue.
"It failed to destroy Ogata Yidao Zhai, and Ogata Yidao Zhai is still united with Uncle and the others."
"It's not safe to stay in Koyasan any longer."
"So although I may have been in a hurry, I decided to start the second phase of the destruction of the Edo Shogunate ahead of schedule."
"Remove all important supplies stored in Koyasan from now on."
"Before the morning of the next day at the latest, all the important materials must be moved to Rihui Maru and Hulu Maru, and then all the members who are currently staying in Koyasan will go north to Edo on the second ship, and launch the Edo Battle!"
If Toyotomi Nobuhide's previous words made everyone's astonished faces look better, then Toyotomi Nobuhide's new words just now made everyone's faces change from good-looking to full of astonishment.
"The Battle of Edo?" Someone's eyes widened, "Master Toyotomi, what should Ogata Isai and Kinoshita Genichi do in Osaka?"
"The information we have about them is wrong." Toyotomi Nobuhide said indifferently, "We have far underestimated their strength, especially Ogata Ittosai."
"Based on our current heavily damaged military strength, even if we want to defeat Ogata Ittosai, we will have to pay a very heavy price and end in a disastrous victory."
"I'm quite annoyed by the word miserably."
Toyotomi Nobuhide grinned.
"As a person, I only hope for a crushing victory! Just like yesterday's attack on the Osaka government!"
"Thus, although I am very unwilling, I can only abandon Ogata Yidaosai first, and then slowly find a way to deal with him."
As soon as Toyotomi Nobuhide finished speaking, another person quickly asked:
"But isn't Master Toyotomi's musketeer unit that participated in last night's battle of Osaka basically on the way back to Koyasan? What should they do? Hikki Maru and Hulu Maru can't hold so many people."
"I will make detailed arrangements for the Musketeers in the future." Nobuhide Toyotomi replied, "The Edo War does not require the Musketeers to participate in the battle. They only need to temporarily hide in our other strongholds in Japan."
"You don't need musketeers to join the battle?" The person who asked the question just now opened his eyes a little wider. "How can we capture Edo without musketeers?"
It's not just this person who is looking at Toyotomi Nobuhide suspiciously now.
Almost everyone at the scene cast doubtful glances at Toyotomi Nobuhide.
The term "Edo war" has always been a word full of secrets in the Toyotomi army.
Toyotomi Nobuhide often mentioned this term in public.
But no one knows what the battle plan of the "Edo War" is.
No one has heard Toyotomi Nobuhide give any explanation of the detailed battle plan of the "Edo War", only heard that Toyotomi Nobuhide said that the goal of the "Edo War" is to completely destroy Edo, the ruling center of the Tokugawa clan , to hit the morale of the Edo shogunate to the greatest extent.
For a long time, the cadres of the Toyotomi Army believed that the "Edo Battle" was probably like the "Osaka Spring Battle", dispatching elite musket troops to surprise various points in Edo.
The cadres of Toyotomi's army have always thought so.
But who would have thought that Toyotomi Nobuhide would say in public now: "The Battle of Edo" does not require musket troops to participate in the battle?
This undoubtedly surprised everyone so much that their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
"Who said that without the Musketeers, Edo could not be conquered?" Everyone saw the smile on Toyotomi Nobuhide's face, showing a strong intriguing color, "As long as my sister is around, even if there is no soldier, We can also easily complete the Edo battle and break through Edo."
The astonishment on everyone's faces became more intense.
They looked at each other, communicating silently with their eyes.
Finally, someone gritted his teeth and boldly asked:
"Lord Toyotomi, I don't know what exactly it means that you can break through Edo with Miss Toyotomi alone?"
Toyotomi Nobuhide smiled.
"I will tell you about the specific content of the Edo battle later."
"For now, let's focus on evacuating Koyasan first."
"Takaharu, Yamamoto, Yutaro"
Toyotomi Nobuhide called the names of 5 people in one breath.
"The 5 of you will be responsible for the evacuation of Koyasan. The 5 of you will stay, and the rest will leave for now."
"If someone is not full, they can take the food from the banquet down to eat."
People whose names were not called, after you looked at me and I looked at you, they all got up and prepared to leave.
But right now
"Lord Toyotomi! I have a merciless request!"
An extremely loud voice suddenly sounded.
According to the reputation, it turned out to be the leader of the remnant party in Shiranui: Ju Taro.
I saw Kikutaro walking out in three steps in parallel, facing Toyotomi Nobuhide, and knelt down on the ground in the most standard Dogeza posture.
"Please let us also participate in the security work on Mount Koya!"
Looking at Kikutarou kneeling on the ground in front of him, Toyotomi Nobuhide raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Us? Are you saying: let you Shiranui also join the security work on Koyasan?"
"Exactly!" Kikutaro said loudly, "Vigilance and surveillance are what we, as ninjas, are best at!"
"Right now, there are a total of 50 Iga people staying in Koyasan."
"Although there are a lot of people, 50 people are not enough to monitor and guard the important areas of Koyasan."
"But if our Shiranui people can participate, the pressure on manpower will be greatly reduced!"
"Master Toyotomi, please allow us Shiranui to participate in the security work of Mount Koya!"
After shouting like this, Kikutaro secretly said proudly in his heart:
Such a good opportunity to show your face in front of Lord Toyotomi, you can't miss it
The reason why Kikutaro was so active in asking for a job, asking Toyotomi Nobuhide to let them, the remnants of Shiranui, join the current work of "enhancing the security of Mount Koya", is not because he loves the task so much.
It's purely because Kikutaro thinks that this task can allow them, the remnants of Shiranui, to show their face in front of Toyotomi Nobuhide, and it's not dangerous, so they can fish very happily.
Toyotomi Nobuhide just said: By the morning of the day after tomorrow at the latest, everyone who is currently staying on Koyasan will leave Koyasan on the two battleships Nichiki Maru and Hulumaru, and head north to Edo.
In other words, they will only stay in Koyasan for a day and a half at most.
Kikutaro didn't know what Ogata and the others would do in the future.
But Kikutaro knew that if Ogata and the others decided to attack Mount Koya, it would definitely take a few days of preparation time.
They just went through a big battle in Osaka last night, so they need a rest period of 1 or 2 days, right?
In addition, it must take some time to carefully formulate a specific offensive strategy, right?
After Ogata and the others made all the preparations and went straight to Koyasan, they should have boarded the battleship and headed straight for Edo swaggeringly.
Therefore, Kikutaro feels that it is quite safe to join Koyasan's security work now, and Ogata and the others should not be seen until they leave Koyasan.
It will be beneficial to show your face in front of the leader and let the leader remember your face, and no matter how inconspicuous the task is, it is better than no task. These are two valuable life experiences that Kikutaro realized when he was struggling in Shiranui. .
Now take the initiative to ask for a job, and ask Toyotomi Nobuhide to let them Shiranui join in this mission, so that you can show your face in front of Toyotomi Nobuhide without worrying about any danger you will encounter during this mission. This is what Kikutaro thought in his heart Hit ninety-nine.
Kikutaro pressed his forehead tightly to the ground, fully expecting Toyotomi Nobuhide's response.
Kikutaro did not wait for Toyotomi Nobuhide's response.
He only waited for a shout that made Kikutaro's expression freeze.
"Ah! Toyotomi-sama! Let me be idle, so why not let me join the security work on Koyasan!" A strong man knelt beside Kikutaro and yelled.
After shouting like this, the strong man quietly cast a provocative look at Kikutaro beside him.
It's funny to say that the reason why this strong man volunteered is exactly the same as that of Kikutaro.
He was also confused by the superior conditions of "being able to show his face in front of Toyotomi Nobuhide, and the task is safe".
He was thinking of going out and asking Toyotomi Nobuhide just now, but he was half a step behind Kikutarou.
This guy!Do you want to rob me of this skill? !
After cursing fiercely in his heart, Kikutaro raised his head.
"Lord Toyotomi, it is more appropriate to entrust us, the ninjas, with the task of strengthening vigilance!"
"No, Lord Toyotomi!" The strong man followed closely not to be outdone, "When I was serving the Edo Shogunate, I was in charge of security work in Nagasaki, and I have quite a lot of experience in this task !"
Kikutaro and the strong man are fighting over there.
The cave became noisy with the shouts of the two.
Toyotomi Nobuhide did not immediately respond to the two of them.
Nor did they stop their act of grabbing tasks.
He silently rested his left elbow on his crossed left leg, resting his head on his left hand, with a faint smile on his face.
With an expression as if watching some wonderful drama, he quietly watched Kikutaro and the strong man who were still arguing.
Mount Koya, Sengenji Temple
Master Xianyuan walked quickly towards the outside of Xianyuan Temple.
