Chapter 10 Recruitment
When Ueda Nobukata found Iwashita Kiyoshita, Iwashita was already much better, and that night, Ueda Nobukata removed the threads for Iwashita Naka.
After he finished removing the stitches, the healer on the side, Nan Guang Ren'an, asked, "Ueda, why do you sew up the wound like sewing clothes, and why?" ”
Ueda Nobukata only knew about this operation because he was curious, and he didn't know the real theory very well, so he had to say: "It's to stop the bleeding, this method is available in the Ming Kingdom." ”
"Stop the bleeding?" Nanguang Ren'an muttered, and then began to think carefully, and then said with a light in his eyes, "I understand, I see." ”
Ueda Nobukata looked at Minamihiro Renan in shock, thought for a moment and continued: "When suturing, you should pay attention to the fact that the front line is clean, so the needle needs to be heated under the flame.
The thread needs to be soaked in boiling water before it can be used, and the person who is stitching it should have his hands or whole body clean. ”
It was the first time that Minamihiro Renan heard of such knowledge, and he listened very carefully and recorded something.
He asked, "Does Ueda know what external evil can infect wounds?" ”
Ueda Nobukata didn't know what to say about bacteria, so he thought of a term and said, "External evil can also be said to be invisible and existent."
It is alive, but it is no longer visible to the human eye, it resides on the wound and makes people die.
Of course, it's not a youkai or anything like that, it's just a creature smaller than a bug. Hot temperatures can wipe it out. ”
Nanhiro Renan nodded thoughtfully, and he nodded to Kohei Jiro very seriously: "Ueda, please accept it as your student!" ”
Ueda Nobukata was dumbfounded, and hurriedly waved his hand; "You're mistaken, you're a samurai, not a healer, so I can't teach you anything."
Minamihiro Ninan said, "But Ueda knows what you don't know, and this is a new way of medicine, so please accept it as a disciple no matter what!" ”
Ueda Nobukata smiled, "Mr. Nanhiro wants to learn this?" But I don't know much about it, and what I know is also hearsay, scattered, and I really can't teach you anything. ”
Nanguang Renan paused again and said, "Then let me serve by Ueda's side!" ”
Iwashita on the side said, "Nobukata, Mr. Nanguang is a famous healer in Katsumi City. ”
Ueda Nobukata thinks about it, in this era, life is a big thing, and a cold and fever can kill people.
He nodded and said, "Okay, Mr. Nanguang, you can follow the next around, as long as you think of it, I will tell you." ”
Minamihiro Renan was very happy and said, "Thank you very much for Ueda!" ”
Iwashitaka smiled, "Shinkata, congratulations, you have really become a samurai, do a good job!" ”
Ueda Nobukata paused: "Hahaha, thank you so much, thanks to Iwashita for taking care of me." ”
Iwasita nodded and said, "Nobukata, is there something wrong with you coming so late?" ”
Ueda Nobukata nodded and said, "Yes, this matter was originally asked by the lord, but it has been targeted by the chaos of the Takeda family."
The next task,I need a clear help in the next.,As for the credit.。 ”
Iwasita nodded and said, "I see, this is a favor, our Iwashita family will definitely help you." ”
Ueda Nobukata immediately told him about the alliance with the Ogasawara guardian family and the Suwa Westerners.
Iwasita Kiyoshi nodded and said, "Ueda, don't worry, you will definitely not disappoint this heart." ”
Ueda Nobukata nodded and said, "Then please leave it to Qingji." However, the next concern is that the Ogasawara guardian family may reject the family, and when the time comes, he must convince Yajima Yorimitsu and Hanaoka Tadsune, who are in the west of Suwa. ”
Iwashita Kiyoshi nodded very seriously.
Later, the happy Iwashita Naka invited Ueda Nobukata to drink as a token of gratitude.
Early the next morning, Ueda Nobukata came out of the hotel where the Iwashita family lived, followed by Nanhiro Nin-an, and as for Iwashita Kiyoshita, he had already dressed up a little and had already left when it was dawn.
Ueda Nobukata felt that he should recruit some subordinates, and a standing ashigaru annual salary of twenty to thirty koku would be enough, and the maximum amount of money would be forty koku.
In addition to buying a pair of curls recently, plus a knife, most of the money used for eating is paid by others, as well as prepaid goods funds, and now he still has 850 yuan.
When the goods arrived, he would have to give 100 kan of money, and the remaining 750 kan of money, and it was already the end of February, and he still had a little more than four months to go from March to the battle of Shiojiri.
If he recruited ten ashigaru, it would be thirteen yuan a month, and fifty-two yuan in four months.
Of course, this is not counting the money of four craftsmen, one craftsman is 50 yuan a day, four are 200 yuan a day, and a month is 60 yuan.
And the craftsman is to be raised for a long time, so he only needs ten ashigaru, and more will attract the attention of others.
He decided that when the time came to team the Takeda Army, he would use the famous skill of the Shimazu family - Orino Fushi!
The Takeda family's tactic against Ogasawara was to raid the country, and when he launched a surprise attack, he ambushed the Takeda army with iron cannons and bowsfoot to stop the Takeda army's offensive.
Of course, he did this to prevent Ogasawara from losing less for a long time, and it was in the interests of the Murakami family for Ogasawara to fight with Takeda Harunobu for a long time.
Ueda Nobukata took Minamihiro Ninan to recruit Ashigaru, in fact, it was not difficult, during the Warring States Period, many Ashigaru of the defeated side wandered around.
Nanhiro Renan knew more about this matter, so he took Ueda Nobukata to a place.
Ueda Nobukata picked out ten people, and these ten people were already the tallest and strongest in the group, with an average height of about 1.4 meters, while Kohei Jiro was about 1.6 meters.
These ten ashigaru are also dragging their families, so Ueda Nobukata has to find a way to accommodate the ten ashigaru family members.
Not only that, but he also has to buy armor pills, this kind of carcass pills are very simple, only protect the body, and only protect the front, there are a few iron skirts underneath, and a pair of carcass pills also cost a few dollars.
In addition to the armor, it is a saber, and the five cheapest swords also cost a lot of money, and five bows, plus arrows, which is a lot of money.
Although Ueda Nobukata has a headache, the money that should be spent still has to be spent.
He said to Nanguang Ren'an: "Sir, please take this group of people to take a bath, these dirty clothes should be washed with hot water, and if you don't have a new change of clothes, buy a new set." ”
Nanhiro Renan nodded and said, "Ueda is really benevolent, and it's the first time I've seen a samurai like you." ”
Ueda Nobukata smiled and said, "Sir, this is actually because often not taking a bath will easily provoke invisible things, which is related to the plague." ”
The word plague, Ueda Nobukata said in the ear of Minamihiro Nin'an.
Minamihiro Ren'an visibly stiffened and looked at Ueda Nobukata.
