Osaka Castle, the training ground of the Iron Artillery Team. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Bang bang......" Countless iron cannon shots sounded in the training ground, and on the side, Oda Nobunaga and Oda Yoshinobu watched indifferently, and next to them, the Suzuki brothers stood respectfully aside.

After a while, Ashigaru picked up the target he had hit, took a closer look, and only after half a sound did Oda Nobunaga sigh, "I really can't imagine that saltpeter can be replaced with dung, and the power is not bad at all!" ”

"Yes, thinking about Guangxiu, they have been beaten by this kind of ammunition made of feces for so long, and I can't help but sympathize with him." Oda Yoshinobu nodded in agreement.

Hearing this, Oda Nobunaga pursed his lips and said with bad intentions, "I remember that I ordered you to attack Kii Province before, you kid won't keep dragging it out because of this matter, right?" ”

"Whew! You wait, in a few months I will directly take Kii Province. Oda Yoshinobu shouted loudly, but then he glanced at the Suzuki Shigehide brothers, who were standing on the side with normal faces, and said to Oda Nobunaga seemingly casually, "I'm going to spare the Suzuki family, if they don't resist desperately......"

Hearing this, Oda Nobunaga glanced at Oda Yoshinobu, and when he heard these words, he couldn't help but peek at the Suzuki brothers who were looking at this side, and immediately shook his head, "You can do this kind of thing yourself, anyway, Kii Country will be your territory in the future." ”

Nodding, the two then complimented the Suzuki brothers and set off for Osaka Castle.

"I heard that your kid is going to form a cavalry team of 1,200 people?" On the way, Oda Nobunaga asked in a very flat tone, but although the tone was flat, everyone could hear his envy, jealousy, hatred.

"Yes~" Oda Yoshinobu said casually, "It's not something too special, there's nothing to make a fuss about." "Tsk, that look of underbeating...... That's right, he did it on purpose!

And Oda Nobunaga obviously knew Oda Yoshinobu's thoughts, so he could only continue to pretend to be casual and said, "Don't train too hard, otherwise if you hurt the war horse, it won't be worth it." At the end, Oda Nobunaga's tone became very serious.

"Don't worry, those people treat war horses more than they do about themselves." Oda Yoshinobu nodded and said. In this day and age, War Horse was a very, very expensive luxury. The reason for this is also very simple, the island nation of Japan has too few horses that can be used as war horses, and most of them are small ponies that can only be used for farming.

In fact, in some forces, these horses, which could only be used for farming, were all used as mounts by samurai. After all, when you don't have a choice, you don't care so much.

Therefore, in this era, a famous horse is definitely easier for the samurai to break their heads than any famous sword and gun. For example, the Pegasus brought back by Oda Yoshinobu back then, including Oda Nobunaga, everyone's eyes turned green in an instant.

Of course, the horses used by the cavalry at present are not Pegasus, but the horses that were discovered later, although they are not as good as the Pegasus, but they are also better than those on Honshu Island. That's why Oda Nobunaga said that. After all, although the number of such good horses has increased now, after the configuration of the cavalry team, there are only about a hundred left.

"Also, some time ago I got a very good guy who can help me take better care of those horses." Oda Yoshinobu smirked.

"Oh?" Oda Nobunaga looked at Oda Yoshinobu suspiciously.

And Oda Yoshinobu did not continue to whet Oda Nobunaga's appetite, "His name is Sevie Da Han, a nomad from the Arab world, and compared to us, their knowledge of horses can completely kill us in an instant. Speaking of this, Oda Yoshinobu couldn't help but feel a little proud, because Sevi had come to the door on his own, and the reason why he was so was because he met Portuguese merchants who had rushed to Europa from Japan at the original port, and learned about Tenma from their mouths.

Now, in addition to being the manager of Oda Yoshinobu's ranch, Sevi is also responsible for assisting Maeda Keiji in training cavalry. After all, there is no one in this world who knows cavalry better than nomads.

"Tsk, that's a lucky guy!" After listening to Oda Yoshinobu's explanation, Oda Nobunaga pursed his lips and muttered unpleasantly.

It took them half a while before they returned to the mansion of Oda Yoshinobu in Osaka Castle. As soon as he entered the door, Oda Nobunaga urged angrily, "Okay, what kind of treasure did you kid get, so mysterious?" ”

Yes, the reason why Oda Nobunaga came this time was not because saltpeter had found a replacement, nor because the construction of the Galen ship had begun, but because Oda Yoshinobu told him that there was something to show him that could change the fate of the Oda family. It's just that until now, Oda Yoshinobu hasn't taken out that thing at all, which obviously makes Oda Nobunaga very dissatisfied.

Hearing this, Oda Yoshinobu just laughed, and then ordered someone to bring wine up, and invited Ah Guo to train a witch to come up to cheer up. While drinking and smoking cigars with Oda Nobunaga, I watched the dance brought by this group of shrine maidens.

Speaking of which, since Oda Yoshinobu asked Mo Chou to form a maiden, Ah Guo's side obviously felt threatened, although one side of the two sides is the song and dance poetry of the Ming Kingdom, and the other side is the Japanese song and dance song, but the two sides are still more energetic. From the techniques of serving men to the innovation of dance, the creation of new songs, and so on......

Of course, Oda Yoshinobu is very supportive of this kind of competition, because he is the one who really benefits.

Although he was impatient, Oda Nobunaga could only watch the performance of these shrine maidens while drinking, and it was only after a long time that Oda Nobunaga said in a deep voice, "These people's performances are very good!" How many people have reached the top level? ”

Hearing this, Oda Yoshinobu shook his head helplessly, "They are the top people, they are just preparing to perform when there are any activities, and the level of those witches sent out cannot be said to be too bad, but compared to them, it is still a little worse." ”

"Oh...... You kid will enjoy ......" Oda Nobunaga gave Oda Yoshinobu a meaningful look when he heard this, and said disdainfully. Obviously, he already understood the true usefulness of these top shrine maidens, after all, each of them was very beautiful.

It's just that Oda Yoshinobu has obviously been used to this kind of contempt for a long time, and he ignored Oda Nobunaga, just continued to watch the song and dance.

I don't know how long it took, but a female god of death respectfully brought a plate and placed it on the table in front of Oda Nobunaga.
