Chapter 102: Those who haven't seen blood are not good ashigaru
"Well, I see, just remember to clean her room every day! Go down. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Ji Qin's voice came out of the room, the maid breathed a sigh of relief, answered the "yes" and then retreated, in the room, the crane lay on the bed, looked at Ji Qin sitting in front of the bookcase, and asked softly: "You don't seem to be nervous at all when you run away, she is only thirteen years old." ā
"Thirteen, it's been so many years, she should have her happiness." Ji Qin put down the book in his hand and replied silently.
"Happiness, didn't His Highness Asai say that he wanted to marry his son? And she also has a good impression of His Royal Highness Asai, can't this bring her happiness? ā
Tsuru's tone was a little hurried, in her eyes, this was a happy thing for the lady, Ji Qin shook his head, and said softly: "Over there, the Takeda family made a request for an alliance, and married the daughter of Takeda Yoshitomi and the daughter of Ashikaga Yoshiharu to His Royal Highness Asai as the main room, and the important ministers of the family have agreed. ā
Crane's face changed, and he said hurriedly: "Then ...... say so?"
"I'd rather marry a low-level samurai who has the ability and love her as a formality, rather than give her a side room to His Royal Highness Asai, my sister of Hachiki Jiqin, it is impossible to be a side room."
"His Highness Asai."
"Your Highness won't blame."
"That's good."
"You can rest more, I'll go to the study."
"Hmm."
ā¦ā¦
In the study, Ji Qin looked at Luxi who was kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Luxi, you take someone to find her and protect her." ā
Takixi was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "My lord, if Miss Yanzi doesn't cooperate, will we force her to take her back?" After saying this, Takixi himself was startled, but Ji Qin didn't seem to care, but looked at the leaves swaying in the wind outside the window, and said lightly: "After finding her, you follow her, and the rest of the people will hide in the dark, you will do whatever she says, don't interfere with her, however, you also have to have your judgment, for danger, I think you know what to do." ā
"Yes, the little ones will do it."
"The number of people, just a hundred ninja troops, plus the support of merchant houses from all over the country, should be enough."
"Yes!"
When Takixi left, Ji Qin turned his head to look at Yoji on the side, and said lightly: "There will be a war again in a while, go and tell your father about them, it's always good to make some preparations early." ā
"Thank you, my lord!"
Yoji slammed his head on the floor and thanked him heartily. Ji Qin nodded, even if Ji Qin didn't talk about this matter now, he would know about it himself after a while, and then tell his father Fujido Tiger High, why not do it if he said earlier that he could earn a little loyalty.
Speaking of fighting, Ji Qin remembered his own standing ashigaru that he hadn't paid much attention to, after letting Keijiro and Inutaro be in charge of training last time, Ji Qin had only been to see it two or three times, and he hadn't been there much after instructing the two of them on some training skills, and the last time he went was three months ago, because of the matter of the crane to produce, Ji Qin hadn't been out of Qimuzhuang for three months, and it was time to go out and go around.
"Prepare the horses and go to the playground."
"Yes!"
He Ji answered, walked away quickly, and soon led the little white dragon and an ordinary war horse, flew on the horse, and Ji Qin and Ji Ji walked towards the playground five miles away. The playground is Ji Qin's name for the standing ashigaru training ground, but this word was not coined by Ji Qin, but by Qi Jiguang, a famous anti-Japanese general in the Ming Dynasty, and Ji Qin is just taking it out and using it now.
Not far away, the two of them soon reached the playground, and in the distance, they could hear the neighing of people and horses coming from the playground, mixed with the sound of iron cannon shooting. The Iron Artillery Team under the command of Zenjubo Sugitani is also training in the playground. Living under the roar of iron artillery for a long time will not quickly rout when being fired by enemy iron artillery on the battlefield.
The news of Yoshiko's arrival was soon reported to Keijiro by the ashigaru guarding the door, and the two ashigaru led the horses for the two of them, and slowly walked towards the playground, and Keijiro and the others who got the news were rushing here on fast horses.
"Lord, you're here!"
Keijiro and the three of them turned over and dismounted, bowed and said respectfully, Ji Qin nodded and said, "Show your training results." ā
"Yes!"
The three of them glanced at each other, leaving Inutaro to lead the horse for Ji Qin slowly, and Keijiro and Zen Zhubo went back to rectify the army, wanting to show it well in front of Ji Qin.
Standing on the high platform, standing next to Yoshiwa Inutaro, Yoshikoto nodded, and Inutaro shouted, "Begin!" ā
First of all, two hundred bows are light, and the free shooting of the immovable target is fifty steps away, and then there is a fixed-point intensive strike, and the effect is okay after reading it, Ji Qin did not shake his head or nod.
This was followed by two hundred guns, one hundred horses, and three hundred iron cannons. Overall, they are very imposing, and it can be seen that they usually train very hard, but Ji Qin didn't nod.
After this scene, Inutaro, who had been paying attention to Ji Qin's face, was getting cooler and cooler the more he looked at it, and after all the troops were displayed, Inutaro suddenly knelt beside Ji Qin's side and said in a deep voice: "Please punish the lord!" ā
Keijiro Maeda and Zenjubo Sugitani, who had just returned, immediately knelt down on the ground after Inutaro desperately looked at him and saw Yoshiko's calm face, and said in unison, "Please punish the lord." ā
"A samurai who hasn't seen blood is not a good samurai, and a sashigaru who hasn't really been on the battlefield is not a good ashigaru. Do you understand what that means? ā
Ji Qin didn't say punishment, but suddenly said such a sentence, which made the three of them look at each other for a while, think about it, and after not comprehending it, they all looked at Yoji who had been following Ji Qin, hoping that Yoji could give them a hint.
Yoji looked at them, and felt that Ji Qin didn't pay attention to himself, so he whispered softly in the ears of the three people: "The meaning of the lord should be that the ashigaru you have trained has not experienced actual combat, and has not seen blood, so you can't be regarded as elite soldiers." It's not that you're not training hard enough, as you can tell from the fact that the lord didn't shake his head after seeing it. ā
The three of them suddenly realized that the reason why the three of them had been worried was that they were afraid that Ji Qin would blame them for not training enough, and now after such an analysis with Ji, the three of them were no longer worried, but they had already knelt down, and without Ji Qin's permission, the three of them did not dare to get up.
Ji Qin looked in the direction of the Ibuki Mountain Range and said slowly, "I heard that there are several bandit groups over there in the Ibuki Mountain Range. Ninjas have also been training for so long, you can try to pull them out and practice, the three of you go to find the Tooth Gate Beast by yourself, within a month, I will see an army that has already seen blood, not these so-called elite soldiers who will be defeated after being charged on the battlefield now. ā
"Yes, we must be for the Qimu family, so as to live up to the high expectations of the lord!"
Ji Qin nodded, it was already May, and Guoxin was also rushing towards Guanyin Temple, with his strength, plus Kotaro and their cover, it was already an inevitable situation for Rokkaku Yoshiharu to kill Goto's father and son and cause civil strife in the Rokkaku family, and Wakasa was basically stable. It's time to unify Omi.
