The Haima family took 30 peasant soldiers to go to other nearby villages to recruit peasant soldiers, because Burning Sky had already recruited 30 peasant soldiers, and then only five or six were recruited in several villages, which not only made the land in the village more mobilized, but also did not provoke fierce resistance from the villagers. So only half a day later, the burning sky had already recruited 50 peasant soldiers.

Burning the sky is also reluctant to recruit too many peasant soldiers, after all, the gun shot the first bird, and he suddenly landed in Yokoyama Castle, which has caused the dissatisfaction of Kinoshita Hideyoshi and others, if he does too much, he is afraid that he will be more harshly harsh by Kinoshita Hideyoshi and others.

So when the sun was just about to go west, he returned to Hengshan Castle with his own twenty standing guards and fifty peasant soldiers he had recruited. The samurai on duty saw a team of more than seventy people in the distance, and said to Ashigaru beside him, "Quick, get on guard." With that, he drew the longbow in his hand and stared at the team that was marching towards Yokoyama Castle not far away.

When the company approached Yokoyama Castle, the samurai on duty saw that it was the others who had gone out to collect peasant soldiers this morning. Hurriedly said to Ashigaru behind him: "You go and inform Kinoshita-sama that Hieiyama-sama has returned from recruitment." With that, the samurai ordered the door to be opened, and said to the burning air, "Wait a little longer for Mt. Hiei, and inform Kinoshita-sama in the next, and only after Kinoshita-sama comes, can you put Hiei-sama in." ”

At this time, the seahorse Yoshiya behind the burning sky whispered to the burning air: "My lord, it seems that Kinoshita Hideyoshi-sama is not a very important person. After hearing this, Burning Sky smiled at the Seahorse Yijia and said, "This is not a serious matter, but a regulation, and we must abide by it." The Seahorse Yijia smiled at him, and then hid behind the Burning Sky and said no more.

After a while, Kinoshita Hideyoshi took Wasuka Masakatsu and Takenaka Hanbei and others to the gate of Yokoyama Castle, and Wasuka Masakatsu looked at the fifty peasant soldiers in front of the door, and whispered to Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "Lord, excluding his twenty standing guards, it is exactly fifty peasant soldiers." After that, he looked at the Takenaka Hanbei with a somewhat complicated face, and the Takenaka Hanbei felt the gaze of Wasuka Masakatsu, looked back at him and shook his head, and then whispered to Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "The lord still puts the Mingsha Gate into the city first, and as for those peasant soldiers, the garrison can let them live." ”

After hearing this, Kinoshita Hideyoshi said categorically: "Mingshamen and the others can be put in, and the peasant soldiers must live outside, otherwise his power in the city will be difficult to control." After Kinoshita Hideyoshi finished speaking, Wasuka Masakatsu stepped forward and said to the waiting Burning Sky: "Mingshamen, you have done a good job, but the garrison in the city cannot accommodate so many peasant soldiers, you and the lord's family can enter the city, and the peasant soldiers need to spend the night outside the city." ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky immediately replied loudly: "If this is the case, I will also live outside the city with the others, but I hope that Kinoshita-sama can provide us with some wood and rice grain." ”

After hearing this, Kinoshita Hideyoshi walked to the front and said to the burning sky: "Mingshamen, there is really no room for these peasant soldiers in the city, why don't I give you some wood, you wait to build a fortress outside the city, echo with Hengshan Castle, and form an angle to support each other." After that, he continued to say to the burning sky: "Mingshamen has outstanding ability, and he will be able to take on this important task, Mingshamen quickly take his men into the city to carry wood, and I will keep the house in your city." ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky immediately said to Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "Thank you, Lord Kinoshita, for building a fort nearby, and now I will take my men into the city to carry wood, and my lord can first transport some rice and grain for me and other people to eat." ”

After hearing this, Kinoshita Hideyoshi smiled at the burning sky and said, "This is natural, and the matter of Hanbei will be left to you." The half-guards of Takenaka, who were standing behind Kinoshita Hideyoshi, immediately came out and said to Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "Don't worry, my lord, this matter will be handed over." After that, he said to the samurai behind him, "Gonbei, you go and transport the rice and grain of Mt. Hiei and his party this month and next month to the outside of the castle." ”

Later, Burning Sky and the rest of the standing staff brought out most of the timber piled up next to the garrison, and borrowed a few axes casually. Mingshan took out all the copper coins in the Hengshan Castle House under the order of burning the air.

After dark, the wood is chopped into firewood with an axe, and then lit with flint so that everyone can keep warm for the night. So everyone gathered around the fire in the cold wind to warm each other, burned the air and looked at Mingshan who was sleeping against him, smiled at the seahorse Yijia on the side, and then whispered: "The Yijia is sorry, let everyone suffer from the cold outside the city." ”

After hearing this, the Haima Yijia also smiled and said, "Why don't you go into the city to rest, but burn a fire here with lowly people to keep warm?" ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky raised his head and looked at the west and said: "Another ancient poem in the Ming Kingdom, called "No Clothes", I wonder if the righteous family is interested in listening to it?" ”

After hearing this, the Haima Yijia showed a trace of curiosity on his face with some traces of time, and said to the burning sky: "Although I can't understand Chinese, I still ask the adults to sing it." ”

The burning sky first made the somewhat weakened fire strong again, and then looked up at the old country in a low voice and said, "How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear. Enmity with the Son! How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd. Work with the son! How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers. Walk with the son! ”

After the song is finished, the longing for home (home in the 21st century) overflows into my eyes. Burning Sky immediately wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand, and lowered his head to look at the Seahorse Yijia. But seeing that the eyes of the Seahorse Yijia were about to turn red, the burning sky hurriedly apologized to the Seahorse Yijia, and the Haima Yijia rubbed his eyes and said: "Although Zai Xia can't understand Chinese, the sad meaning in it reminds me of the past. ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky whispered to the Seahorse Yijia: "Yijia, everyone has their own hidden past in their hearts, and I hope that Yijia will not be too sad, I will build a wall tomorrow, and Yijia should rest early." ”

After hearing this, the Haima Yijia nodded, and lay down with his clothes. Then he got up and told a few guards of the fire to be prepared, sat down again and covered the clothes on Mingshan's body upwards, and then looked at the fire in front of him, thinking about the building of the fire.

When he got up, he accidentally saw the candlelit castle tower in Yokoyama Castle, and a small seed in his heart had gradually grown, and the sprout in it was trying to break through the shell of the seed, but it was greatly helped.
