In the extremely arid and hot desert Gobi region, a rare mirage appeared strangely on the outskirts of Noda Castle, attracting the attention of all the Takeda retainers and auxiliaries in the city.

In the end, Takeda Shinshigeru and the gods raised this ordinary mirage to the same level as a miracle.

It is used to highlight the prosperity of the Takeda family, and even the heavens have to take care of it, especially this Amaterasu God sent down a miracle, indicating that the scene in the picture scroll is part of the future glory of the Takeda family.

The instability in the city dissipated, and the auxiliaries and the defenders of the city performed their duties, and everything seemed to be on the right track.

……………………

Ten days have quietly passed......

Noda Castle, which is quiet on the surface, has quietly happened here and now, and several major events have quietly happened that are enough to change the direction of history......

First things first: the old driver sent someone to take out a batch of iron cannons with tarpaulins from an abandoned warehouse cellar in the auxiliary camp.

No one knows the whereabouts of these iron cannons, and only the old driver controls the hidden place, because this is his biggest secret for three months.

Liu Shibai only knew that the old driver quietly developed some simple machine tools, and then made precision parts and assembled them into a well-made 38 big cover rifle.

Strictly speaking, this batch of firearms cannot be regarded as imitations, although the appearance is the same, but the casting materials of the core part are very different from the original.

If the genuine 38 large cover chamber can withstand a thousand shots, the old driver may only cast half of them.

The second thing: the number of guns in this batch, after ten days of production, reached a staggering three thousand.

These guns, Liu 18 was originally going to be issued to Mao Li Shengyong, so that he could reasonably distribute them to the detachment that needed the most firepower in the Fifth Route Army.

And Takeda Nobuyoshi conveyed a message to Liu Eighteen in a timely manner, which was a handwritten letter from Sanada Shinyi!

The letterhead was brought to Noda Castle by the Messenger Eagle from the borders of Kai, Hojo, and Uesugi families......

After reading the folded snow-white letterhead in his hand, Liu Shibai squinted, but in his heart he dismissed the plan to hand over the firearm to the general Mao Li Katsunaga.

……………………

Nobuyo Akiyama is a Takeda family Toshikawa garrison!

Sanada Nobuyin, who defected in the battle with Tokugawa Ieyasu, served as deputy garrison.

And this letterhead is written by Xinyi.

The content of the letterhead is that Sanada Shinyi, according to Liu Shiba's plan, after transferring the private soldiers of his retainers, he formed a 5,000-strong miscellaneous army to defend against the Hojo family and the Uesugi family, which was reduced to 2,000 people.

The remaining 3,000 miscellaneous cards are rushing to Noda Castle day and night, and will arrive soon.

And the borders of Kai, Hojo, and Uesugi should be sufficient if they occupy dangerous places and refuse to defend them, with 2,000 troops and some new iron cannons......

And these 3,000 newly recruited miscellaneous troops, on the way to Noda Castle, also escorted back a batch of extremely large quantities of military rations, metals, minerals and other raw materials.

In addition, the important retainers of the Takeda family, the military generals, and the families that settled in Kai where they were located, poured all the strength of their families into collecting millions of gold, silver and copper coins.

With these copper coins, the original 10-day intensive labor day will be extended to 15 or 20 days.

At the end of Sanada Nobuyo's letterhead, there is a special note:

"This batch of hard currency, grain and grass that arrived at Noda Castle is the last wealth that the Takeda family, plus the important ministers, generals, and even ordinary people in all the territories, have jointly pieced together.

This is the Takeda family, all the families in Takeda......

The wealth of the entire territory of Takeda will be gathered in Noda Castle for the needs of the lord, and all the peasants and retainers in the territory will hope that the lord will win the battle......

In the end, the success of the collection and delivery of this shipment was due to the police garrison Takasaka Masanobu-sama, and the national mobilization order that was sent back to the families in Takeda played a key role.

If the Takeda family gets out of the crisis, then Takasaka Masanobu will make a great contribution!"

After reading the letterhead, Liu Shiba's face was complicated, holding the letterhead with his hands behind his back, facing the arrow tower of the city wall, looking at the wilderness in the distance......

After a long time, Liu Shibai turned around and carefully folded the letterhead and put it back in his arms.

Then, he looked up at Qin Liu, the guard who was not leaving his side, and Takeda Nobuyo, who came to the city wall with a letterhead, and said heavily:

"War, no matter whether you win or lose, whether you win or lose! No matter how much territory you have, it is still the people who are hungry and cold who will suffer the most in the end!"

Qin Liu's face was expressionless, and he arched his hand:

"The lord is wise!"
