Welcome to the reading "In a large house in Edo Town, dozens of merchants of all sizes gathered" Once Edo Town is looted by the Xia Kou, a few of us may be able to get out of the way, but most of us are afraid that we will lose all our moneySo, I thought that even in order to protect your own shop, it was imperative to take the initiative to provide military service money for the shogunate, not to mention that the shogunate now has a request."
"Can you persuade the shogunate to accept some of the conditions of the Xia Ko in exchange for the Xia people's withdrawal from the army" "In the face of the high military service fee, some small merchants are obviously a little painful, so although the head of Mitsuiya said that it is good to spend money and rice, the small merchants in the ten groups of Wenya (the guild specializing in buying and selling) still try to find another way to solve the problem" "After all, once the war starts, it is difficult to determine whether to win or lose, and if the shogunate loses, Edo will be even more devastated, so it is better for both sides to take a step back, besides, the purpose of the Xia people is also to open up trade"
"The news of the boss of Seemon is lagging behind, and Natsuko's document to the shogunate makes it clear that he must agree to two things: trade and indemnity," replied Sumitomoya, who started his business by opening copper mines and thus became a merchant of the shogunate's royal government.
"It's all the damn Osaka merchants," a few merchants cursed at the moment, "If they hadn't instigated the shogunate, they wouldn't have provoked Xia Ko, but now they want us to be unlucky together, what a bunch of bastard guys"
"Don't say any of that," Mitsuiya shook his head, "Let's think about how to distribute the shogunate's requirements, as for Osaka and Kyoto, they must pay a lot more for military service than we do."
"What, military service is going to be levied again?" In the face of the news conveyed by the local servant, the people in the village whispered, however, complaining to the shogunate was the only thing most peasants could do, but this time the order came directly from the shogunate, and it was obvious that the Yue complaint at the cost of his life was also useless "God, how can this son live"
When I heard this, one of my companions immediately complained, "This is the order of the great general of Edo Castle, so he doesn't care whether we live or die."
Someone unwillingly asked, "Then what should we do?" Just wait to die? ”
"It's not enough to die, it's just that I'm going to be hungry for a few days" In fact, due to the great agricultural exhibition in the middle of the Edo period, although the lives of the people who had their own fields were hard to eat and could not eat white rice, they were still able to manage the multigrain radish rice.
What else can Ai do, he had to tighten his belt, but for such an encounter, the indignant people cursed loudly: "This son can't live, fortunately I have been suffering for a whole year, and I see that the autumn harvest is coming, but I can't even eat a full meal, this world is unreasonable."
Unlike the daimyo merchants who openly and secretly cursed the tyranny of the shogunate, there is a group that is extremely welcoming to the shogunate's order to reorganize the military war, of course, this is not the Tokugawa family's banner warriors, let alone the equal and powerful, but those ronins who have lost their lordship and territory under the rule of the Tokugawa family are all they think about is how to re-enter the government and mix up an identity that can eat well, which provides soil for the spread of rumors
In the third year of Xia Wucheng, the fourteenth year of Genroku, and the twelfth day of July, when the shogunate issued an order to ask for the assembly of Banner and Ashigaru, the news that the shogunate was recruiting ronins to participate in the war at the same time spread wildly in the market, and at the same time, there was a nose and an eye to say that once the battle against Xia was won, the ronin who participated in the war would receive the lowest status equivalent to Ashigaru given by the shogunate
The rumors stirred up a great disappearance of the ronin, so on the same day, more than 500 ronin rushed to the Edo Town Governor's Office to plead for the country's expedition, and the next day the rumors were further fermented, and the market spread that these 500 ronins had been accepted by the shogunate and were re-granted the status of samurai, which led to a greater madness When nearly 10,000 ronins flocked to the Edo Town Shrine, and some people even went to the outside of Edo Castle to plead, in addition, the news quickly spread to the whole country, and ronins from all over the country rushed to Edo
The sudden ronin chao caught the shogunate off guard, but the number of ronin gathered was too much, and a mishandling would cause a shocking change, in this case, the old middle council quickly discussed the results, and decided to push the boat down the river to absorb the ronin to participate in the war, and the illusory temptation made the ronin act as cannon fodder for the shogunate, so that the shogunate would reduce its mobilization efforts and reduce mobilization expenses
On the afternoon of July 13, the shogunate temporarily appointed twenty ronin fans, forming twenty ronin teams, it was ri, the Edo Town Commission all-night until the end of the night to recruit ronin, although the shogunate did not even grant uniform clothing, but the absorbed ronin still happily followed the head of the Bantou group to march to the Tama River
"Okay, I can finally become a samurai again" Many ronin wept while marching, "There will be a good riddle in the future"
"This war with Xia Kou has a lot to do with it, and it has to do with whether the clan can be revived again, so please be brave enough to kill the enemy" Among the many ronins who considered themselves, there was a group of people who stood out from the crowd, they were the former feudal lords of the Ako Domain, who were changed in March this year because of the sword wound incident under the Pine Corridor, "one qiē got rid of"
"Please rest assured" Dozens of former feudal lords, including Tagawa Saemon, Onodera Tonachi, Kondo Genshiro, and other former feudal lords responded in unison, which is a lot
