"According to the latest information from the Noto Hatakeyama family, the Tsugawa family's fleet departed from Wajima ten days ago. If you count the time, you should have arrived in Mikuni Minato in Echizen five days ago, and you should have arrived at Kohama Port yesterday! ”

"I waited for a day yesterday and disappeared, and today should be there anyway!" Looking at the sun that was about to set, Takeda Nobutoyo was a little anxious.

Takeda Yuanei on the side also felt that his legs were a little numb, for Takeda Shintoyo, Takeda Yuanei father and son who are used to being pampered and pampered, this kind of thing is probably the first time in life to stand for several hours in a row.

"Look, my lord, there is a ship on the sea! It's the flag of Mamoru Suruga! Suddenly, a Takeda family samurai standing behind Takeda Nobutoyo pointed to the sudden appearance of a few ships on the sea and shouted loudly.

Takeda Nobutoyo hurriedly looked in the direction pointed by the samurai, and sure enough, it was the flag seal of the Takeda family's retainer Yoshimi Masakane.

The Yijian family is an important minister of the Takeda family, and he is also the master of the Takeda family's naval army, and he has more than ten ships under his command (all of which are obsolete goods bought at a low price from the Tsugawa family).

After half a ring, several ships docked separately, and Masatsui Yimi strode off the ship, and then came to Takeda Nobutoshi's side and said loudly, "My lord, the fleet of the Tsugawa family has reached the sea less than thirty miles from Kohama Port, and it will be half an hour before it can be reached!" ”

Masakatsune was ordered to lead the Izumi Navy to cruise in the waters of Wakasa Province to drive out the pirates, and at the same time, he was also responsible for guiding the Tsugawa family's fleet. Two hours earlier, Masatsune had encountered the Tsugawa family's navy at Mihama Bay near the Tsuruga Peninsula, and he left a few ships behind to lead the way for the Tsugawa family's fleet, and then returned to Wakasa to report to Takeda Nobutoyo.

After hearing Masatei's words, Takeda Nobutoyo suddenly felt a sense of relief!

"Hikojiro, immediately send someone to inform the general and the palace manager, the army of the Tsugawa hall has finally arrived!" Takeda Shintoyo's face flushed, and he said excitedly.

.......

"Tsugawa Palace, I can be regarded as looking forward to you!"

Outside Kohama Port, Takeda Nobutoyo held Tsugawa Soji's hand tightly, and he was very emotional.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, but my brother is still as enthusiastic as ever!" Soji Tsugawa also greeted Takeda Nobutoyo cordially, and then, Soji Tsugawa said to Takeda Motoei next to Takeda Nobutoyo, "Presumably this is Hikojiro, right?" I often hear my brother mention it in his letters, and when I see it today, it is really a Xuanyu Xuanang! ”

"Hikojiro Takeda has seen my uncle!" Takeda Motoei hurriedly saluted.

To be honest, Takeda Motoei still has some taste in his heart. Soji Tsugawa was born in the first year of Oei, while Takeda Motoei was born in the sixth year of Oei, and the age difference between the two was only five years. But Motoei Takeda had to call Soji Tsugawa his uncle, and I have to say that it was fucked.

For Takeda Motoei's salute, Tsugawa Soji still accepted it calmly, "This is not the place to talk, I don't know if my brother has prepared wine and food, he has been on the ship for more than a month, and he is about to fade out of his mouth!" ”

"Haha!" Takeda Nobutoyo patted Soji Tsugawa on the shoulder, "In this world, if anyone knows Jiro best in terms of eating, it must be me Takeda Nobutoyo!" ”

Soon, Takeda Nobutoyo brought Soji Tsugawa and his party to Goseyama Castle, the Takeda family's main base. The army that arrived with Soji Tsugawa was temporarily repaired outside Goseyama Castle.

After a long sea journey, there is no ten days and half a month, even if the Tsugawa family's Ashigaru is elite, it will not be too strong in combat effectiveness.

The Takeda family used to be very rich, and now it is also very rich, which makes the Takeda family's original base Goseyama Castle very prosperous.

When Goseyama Castle was built, the Takeda family was one of the best local tyrants in the region, so although Goseyama Castle was a mountain castle, its scale was not small.

The entire Goseyama Castle was built on the top of a mountain at an altitude of 168 meters, with 18 small curved wheels on the north and west sides of the castle, and at the foot of the mountain was Takeda Nobuyoyo's residence, and on the north side of the residence was the castle tower, which was the main koji wheel and the Hachiman Shrine to the north of the castle tower.

After entering Goseyama Castle, Takeda Nobutoyo did not take Tsugawa Soji to eat for the first time, but first went to the Bodhi Temple of the Takeda family, "Fashinji", and paid homage to the late former governor Takeda Motomitsu.

Goseyama Castle and Hatshinji Temple were both built by Takeda Motomitsu.

Goseyama Castle was built during the Daiei period, and the temple was built after the death of Takeda Motomitsu to become the Bodhi Temple of the Wakasa Takeda family.

After the visit, Takeda Nobutoyo led Tsugawa Soji to the Takeda family's residence, accompanied by Yajima Jimitsu and Tozawa Moriyasu, and other retainers reorganized the Tsugawa family's troops outside the city.

After taking the seat, Takeda Nobutoyo couldn't wait to speak, "Jiro, do you know what is on the case?" As he spoke, Takeda Nobutoyo pointed to a cloth-covered plate placed in front of Soharu Tsugawa, with a mysterious look on his face.

Soji Tsugawa thought for a moment, and then said, "Could it be some kind of Nanban treasure?" ”

Wakasa Province is located in the central part of Honshu Island, the gateway to the northern part of the Honshu region, and most importantly by the sea. In recent years, many Nanban people have visited Wakasa Province, so there is a good chance that you can buy some rare Nanban items in Wakasa Country!

"It's boring, Jiro will be right when he guesses!" Takeda Shintoyo shook his head in disappointment at first, and then lifted the cloth on the desk in front of him like a treasure, held up a glass bottle, and said with a happy face: "Jiro, look, these colorful and shining stars, but I bought them from the Nanban people for five hundred yuan!" ”

"It's sweet and sour, it's delicious! Sochijiro likes Nanban things, but like these objects, Jiro must be seeing them for the first time, right? Speaking of this, Takeda Nobutoyo couldn't help but feel a little complacent.

According to the southern barbarian, the food he bought was all rare things, and he couldn't even buy them in the Tsugawa family of Dewa, so Takeda Nobutoyo gritted his teeth and spent a huge amount of money of five hundred yuan to buy these things, the purpose was to find a sense of existence in front of Tsugawa Soji.

To be honest, there really isn't such a thing in the Tsugawa family's territory. But Tsugawa Soji knew, "I didn't expect it to be Jinping Sugar, my brother bothered, such a valuable thing, I will receive it below!" ”

Seeing that Tsugawa Soji uttered the word "precious", Tozawa Moriyasu and Yajima Harumitsu, who were sitting beside Tsugawa Soji, were also surprised. You must know what kind of local tyrant the Tsugawa family is, and even Tsugawa Soji said that this thing is "precious", which is obviously not an ordinary thing. Tozawa Moriyasu and Yajima Jimitsu also hurriedly saluted, because this object was also placed on the desk in front of the two of them.

"It turns out that Jiro knows this thing, is this thing called Konpeito? I used to call it Nanban fruit, but now I think it's more appropriate to call it Jinpingtang! Takeda Nobutoyo put a few pieces of kinpei candy into his mouth and said with an intoxicated expression.

Tsugawa Soji was speechless, the god is a special Nanban fruit, it is not as good as the pancake fruit!

Thinking about it, Tsugawa Soji also threw a few pieces of kinpei candy into his mouth and chewed it, which is rare in this era.

Well, crunchy!
