Ichikuri Soldier Department Shaofu Gao Jie, is a genealogy retainer of the Osaki family, and the lord of Ichichesti Castle.

Ichiki Takatsu is the first general of the Osaki family, and he is also the mainstay of the Osaki family, and has always been trusted by the successive heads of the Osaki family! And when Yili Gaojie later became a monk, the number of the way to enter the Tao was "herding cattle", so it was called Yili herding cattle!

Compared with Yili Gaojie, the title of Yili cattle herding is more famous.

Ichiki herding cattle is the head of the Osaki family, and has served the head of the Osaki family for five generations: Osaki Yoshikane, Osaki Takakane, Osaki Yoshinao, Osaki Yoshinobu, and Osaki Yoshitaka. All his life for the Osaki family, he made remarkable achievements in the war with the Kasai family, and every time he fights, he must fight bravely, and every time he asks for a head, he must report his family name!

In one battle, the name of Ikuri Takatsu resounded throughout the battlefield from the beginning of the battle to the end of the battle, and for a time the name of the Ikuri Soldier Department spread throughout the Rikumae area, and the samurai of the Kasai family called it "Oniichuri".

However, the most dazzling moment in the life of a chestnut herding cattle was in 1591 when "Osaki and Kasai Ichiku". At that time, the 92-year-old Ikuri herd cattle after hearing that a blow broke out in the collar, wearing a family heirloom and holding a sword given by Osaki Takane, fought to the death in Imadeyama Castle Cage Castle, and finally died heroically.

The general of the historical crusade army, the Gamo clan, bowed to the corpse of a chestnut herding cattle to show respect at the castle of Iwaideyama Castle.

..........

A chestnut herding cattle is a straightforward character.,Never be able to hide words.,Say whatever you want to say.,This is also the reason why the successive heads of the Osaki family have relied on a chestnut to herd cattle.,Such a retainer is not trustworthy so who else?

The "Date child" in the mouth of the Ichiki cattle is the current head of the Osaki family and the son of Date Minoru Ozaki Yoshinobu.

As a member of the Ida Minoru side, Osaki Yoshinobu and Osaki Yoshinao, who belonged to the Date Haruna, have been in a constant war since the 11th year of Astronomy. However, in the battle for three consecutive years, Osaki Yoshinobu's side had the upper hand, and although Osaki Yoshinobu had the intention to change the status quo, he could only sigh in the face of the alliance between Osaki Yoshinobu and the Kasai family.

The Osaki family and the Kasai family already had a lot of grievances, and this time, with the civil strife of the Date family, and the confrontation with the Osaki family Osaki Yoshinao and Osaki Yoshinobu, they were even more determined to defeat Osaki Yoshinao and seize the territory of the Osaki family. However, although the strength of the Osaki family has long been much worse than before, there are still many retainers who are loyal to the Osaki family.

For example, Ichiki herds cattle and the Kasahara Party of the countrymen of Kasawara County.

Among them, the Kasawara Party contributed a lot in the battle between Osaki Yoshinobu and Osaki Yoshinobu, and almost every major battle can play a key role, which is why Osaki Yoshinao can survive in the face of the joint attack of Osaki Yoshinobu and Kasai Haruhin.

"Last year, the family fought no less than 20 times with Osaki Yoshinobu and Kasai Haruyin, but most of them ended in defeat and retreat. In the past three years, the family has lost 11 samurai, and as many as 274 people have been killed in battle, which is a very heavy price for the family! In the side hall of the castle tower of Mingsheng Castle, Ichiki herded cattle while pressing his calf for Osaki Yoshinao, and said slowly.

"There's no way around it." Osaki Yoshinao closed his eyes, as if immersed in the comfort brought by the hands of a chestnut herding cattle, and as if he was thinking about something, "Date Harumune was defeated by Date Minoru in Igo County, and the Mogami family took the opportunity to break away from the control of the Date family and become independent in the rear, Date Harumune's life is not good now." ”

"And in this Rikumae area, Kurokawa and Chiba have long since disobeyed the orders of the family, and it would be fine if the family only faced Osaki Yoshinobu alone, but that bastard of Kasai Qingyin also made a hindrance, and the family was also difficult to ride a tiger!" The helplessness and loneliness revealed in Osaki's straight tone made Yili feel very uncomfortable.

Looking at this lord who grew up by himself, Yili herding cattle can't help but think of the two generations of ancestors of Osaki Takakane and Osaki Yoshikane.

"Lord, if Date Child's father dares to come to the territory again next year to cause trouble, he will make a decision to fight and send Date Child's head to the lord!" Yili was full of anger, his hands fell heavily, and he said with a resolute face.

However, it was not Osaki Yoshinao's praise that responded to Ichikumi herding the cattle, but a cry of pain!

"Bastard! The military department, what are you doing so hard, you are killing your family! Osaki Yoshinao clutched his right leg, which had just been almost broken by a herding cow, and screamed in pain.

Yili Fang Niu immediately reacted, and hurriedly said to Osaki Yoshi, "If you do something unintentionally, please punish the lord!" ”

"Forget it!" Osaki Yoshinao waved his hand, sat up from the tatami, and then looked at Ichiki herding cattle and said, "O military department, things have developed to the point where they are now, and it is no longer up to the family to control the situation. ”

"Even Osaki Yoshinobu can't do it, even if he wins? If Date Harumune loses to Date Minoru, then even if the family defeats Osaki Yoshinobu and Kasai Haruhin, it will be useless. Osaki Yoshinao looked like he had seen through the red dust, and instantly entered the sage mode, "Instead of fighting life and death like this, it is better to quietly wait for the victory or defeat between Date Harunzong and Date Minoru." ”

Looking at Osaki Yoshinao, who had already given up treatment a little, Yili herded the cattle and said with some unwillingness, "Lord! No matter how much the family says, it is also an Oshu exploration topic, how can there be a reason to put the name of the family in the hands of others? ”

"Even if the army is defeated and dies, is it better than sitting in the city and waiting to die? If so, what's the difference between that and a dried fish? Ichizuki herded the cattle without flinching and looked directly into Osaki's eyes, and said with a firm face.

Feeling the momentum emanating from a chestnut herding cow, Osaki Yoshinao was even infected for a moment, but when he thought of the current situation of the Osaki family, Osaki Yoshinao's eyes darkened again, "That's it, that's it!" Spring and Autumn have had nothing to do since ancient times, only mediocre people disturb themselves! ”

"The family can't control the chaos that has swept the Ou region, hold the castle and wait for the Date family to decide the winner." Osaki Yoshinao sighed and said slowly.

Just as Ichikumi was trying to persuade Osaki Yoshinao, an attendant quickly ran in from outside, then knelt on the ground and leaned down, handing a letter to Ichikuri herding cow, "Detective Lord, a letter from Lord Ota, the lord of Onikiriba Castle!" After saying that, the attendant saluted Osaki again, and then slowly exited the room.

Yoshinao Osaki likes to listen to people around him call him "Detective Adult", as if he has his own way to make Yoshinao Osaki regain his self-confidence.

"War, what does the letter say?" Osaki Yoshinao lay down on the tatami mat again, and said lazily to Ichizuki herding the cow.

Yili opened the letter, then looked at it roughly, and then his eyes suddenly froze, and he said with a strange expression, "My lord, Lord Daejeon's letter said that another messenger from the Tsugawa family was stopped, and Lord Daejeon specially sent someone to send a letter to ask the lord what to do?" ”

"The Tsugawa family?" Osaki Yoshinao was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly sat up directly from the tatami mat, "That Tsugawa family from Dewa?" ”

"Hah!" Yili herded the cow and nodded hurriedly!

Osaki Yoshinao suddenly couldn't wait to say, "What about the letter? Take it to my family! ”
