After consulting with Saigo Kizo and the others, Soji Tsugawa got up and walked out of the castle tower. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Tsugawa Castle has been used as the residence of Tsugawa Soji since it was recaptured from the Yamada family. Moreover, there should be no migration for some time to come. Tsugawa Castle is now located in the middle of the Tsugawa family's sphere of influence. In the upper left corner is Osawa Castle, Kamiyama Castle, and in the lower left corner is Kakuyama Castle. In addition, Shimonoyama Mountain semi-surrounded Kakuyama Castle and the Tsugawa family, and it was safe in the south. Further west of Osawa Castle is Shimo-Maeda Castle.

To the northeast of Tsugawa Castle is Nagano Castle, further north are the Omonogawa River and Mt. Hinetai, and to the east of Nagano Makoto is Hongdo Castle. To the east of Tsugawa Castle is Rokugo Castle. To the south of the Tsugawa house, across Mt. Shimono, are Togo Castle and Takahashi Castle.

In this way, Tsugawa Castle is surrounded by the various castles of the Tsugawa family, and it is relatively in an absolutely safe position. As long as there is no rebellion within the Tsugawa family, Tsugawa Soji, who lives in Tsugawa Castle, will be very safe.

Tsugawa Soji sent away the guards who wanted to follow him, and walked around casually, and Tsugawa Soji didn't need protection in Tsugawa Castle.

In Senbei County in August, there is neither the cold wind of winter, nor the bright spring of April and May. The sunlight shining on the Tsugawa Castle adds a bit of warmth.

Soji Tsugawa walked on the path in Tsugawa Castle, wandering aimlessly. Tsugawa Castle has gradually become popular, and the families of the first retainers such as the Kuroda family live in the castle. Just wait for the expansion of Tsugawa Castle to be completed, and the families of the rest of the retainers will also move to Tsugawa Castle.

Before I knew it, Soji Tsugawa was outside the city. Compared to the quietness inside the city, the outside of the city is a lively scene. The northwest and southern parts of Tsugawa Castle were newly cultivated land for farming. In the north is the retainer Yashiki, and in the east is the castle town.

Construction of the roads leading from Tsugawa Castle to Rokugo Castle and Hondo Castle has also begun. The workload is not as great as expected, and there were some roads before, but now it's just a matter of tidying up these roads and repairing them a little.

Seeing the Tsugawa Soji Road, several ashigaru guards nearby hurriedly saluted.

Soji Tsugawa waved his hand and said, "What about Ogasawara Shintoki?" ”

"Back to my lord, Ogasawara-sama went to Otaka Castle to escort the wood. It is estimated that it will be delayed to return. An ashigaru replied.

Now in the territory of the Tsugawa family, the materials are still very rich. The area around Odaka Castle is rich in high-quality timber, there are iron mines near Tsugawa Castle, war horses are located around Hondo Castle, and now Maeda Castle has silver mines. Although the sparrows are small, these resources are enough for the Tsugawa family to produce and sell.

Soji Tsugawa nodded and turned to leave. Originally, I was going to talk to Ogasawara about expansion, but Ogasawara was not there, so there was no need for Tsugawa Soji to stay.

As a standard otaku, I didn't study architecture or anything like that in college, and my only hobby was playing games. Although I have some knowledge of the background and history of the Warring States period, I only know about it.

Soji Tsukawa, who has read some novels, scoffs at some pig's feet who open their golden fingers after crossing. "Made, is Goldfinger that easy to open? Any young man of the Celestial Empire is both chemistry and physics, and astronomy and geography are omnipotent, why don't you go to heaven? ”

Tsugawa Soji wisely did not express his opinion on some matters, and the local retainers knew more than Tsugawa Soji.

Randomly, Soji Tsugawa came to the south of Tsugawa Castle.

This is the original residential area, and it already has a "city" feel, but in the eyes of Tsugawa Soji, it is just a small village.

When Soji Tsugawa arrived at a village in the southern part of Tsugawa Castle, wisps of smoke wafted up, and it was clear that it was almost time for lunch.

After a short time, Soji Tsugawa came to a courtyard that was guarded by a footlight.

"I've seen the lord!" The two of them immediately saluted, but their expressions were a little flustered.

"Hmm" Soji Tsugawa nodded and said, "Who are the people living here?" ”

"Back to ..... Back to the lord, all the women who live here are the Yamada family and some of the ladies of the Ryohei family! Ashigaru replied with a sweat in his eyes.

When he conquered Iwatani Castle and Ryohei Castle before, Tsugawa Soji ordered that women should not be embarrassed, but only need to be guarded and given the land or a way to live for them. So Saigo Kicho arranged a group of people in the southern part of Tsugawa Castle and sent a team of Ashigaru guards to guard it. Although it is not considered imprisonment, it still restricts personal freedom.

Soji Tsugawa said suspiciously, "Why are you nervous?" Is His Highness so scary? ”

The two footballers trembled and did not speak, and looked into the courtyard from time to time. Soji Tsugawa immediately realized that something might be going on inside the courtyard.

Immediately, Tsugawa Soji walked into the courtyard.

"Sasuke, you were barely a quarter of an hour just now, haha, you're really weak!"

"Bastard, you're no better than me!"

"It's still the captain Shen Yong, it's been almost half an hour since I went in, and I haven't come out yet!"

In the courtyard, three or five children are standing tremblingly in a corner, and there are actually more than a dozen Ashigaru Masa of the Tsugawa family chatting in pairs!

"Humph!" Soji Tsugawa snorted coldly.

Ashigaru in the courtyard looked back and saw that it was Soji Tsugawa, and stood inside and saluted, "My lord!" ”

Soji Tsugawa asked loudly, "What are you doing here!" ”

One of them trembled and said, "Lord... Lord, no...... Didn't do anything! ”

Tsugawa Soji obviously didn't believe it, and immediately said, "If you don't tell the truth, you will be severely punished!" ”

At the thought of that harsh punishment, Ashigaru in the courtyard couldn't help but shudder. For a while, the temperature in the yard dropped to freezing........

An ashigaru couldn't help but say, "We... I ....."

At this moment, a room suddenly opened, and a disheveled ashiki swaggered out. Before he could get dressed, he was kicked to the ground by Soji Tsugawa.

"Bastard! What the hell are you doing here! Soji Tsugawa said angrily. Obviously, the situation here is somewhat beyond Tsugawa's expectations.

"Ahh Which bastard is it..............." The kicked down Ashigaru struggled to get up, still cursing something in his mouth. But when he turned around and saw Soharu Tsugawa, he was immediately stupefied, "Lord..... Lord! ”

"Say! What the hell are you doing here! Soji Tsugawa said angrily, although there was some speculation in his heart, but Soji Tsugawa still didn't want to believe that his ashigaru would be like this.

But the ashigaru in the yard didn't open his mouth as if he was scared stupid.

Soji Tsugawa suddenly walked into the room, but the eye-catching scene made Soji Tsugawa furious!
