12-50 Twilight Seibei
Eguchi Kiyobei is Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, a low-class samurai of the Kaisaka Domain, a month of thirty koku, his wife died of tuberculosis, leaving two minor daughters, and a mother with Alzheimer's at home, and Seibei, who has a hard life, never dares to go to the tavern with his colleagues to have fun, and rushes home as soon as the work is over, so it is called dusk Seibei is somewhat looked down upon, and men should be chic.
In the evening of that day, the Qing soldiers were busy with the work of the grain depot, took the lead in saying goodbye to everyone, put on their clogs, took their swords, and hurried home, ignoring the troubles that his colleagues deliberately made fun of him.
Walking through the fields and vegetable fields and walking along a dirt road, his five-year-old daughter Izu was playing on the side of the road, and when he saw Kiibei coming, he shouted that Ojisan pounced on him, and Kiyobei picked up his daughter, and his face was full of smiles, which was probably the happiest time of the day.
There was already smoke rising from the thatched-roof chimney at home, this is the eldest daughter Xuanyu cooking, pushing open the simple firewood door and saying to her attendant: You go back. Qing Bingwei's little servant is a poorer boy than him, and it stands to reason that the attendant should have eaten at the samurai's old man's house before going back, but Qing Bingwei's family is too poor, so he doesn't leave him to eat every time.
A few hens in the yard walked around leisurely, this is the mother fed, can provide the family with two eggs a day as a daughter's breakfast, but Qingbei himself has never eaten, he pushed open the door and shouted, I am back, the eldest daughter hurriedly ran over to salute him: "You are back." Then he took his saber and carefully placed it on the shelf, Kiyobei took off his clogs, looked at the two big toes that leaked out of the rotten socks, sighed silently, pushed the door to the Japanese room where his mother was, and greeted, "Is your mother okay?" ”
The mother with dementia stopped what she was doing and said, "May I ask which master are you?" Seibei said loudly, "I am your son of Iguchi Kiyobei, the treasurer of the Kaisaka Domain. Then he shook his head helplessly and walked out.
In order to supplement the family, Qingbei took a small job, using bamboo to weave bird cages, and the family was busy and could exchange a few copper coins for a night, which would take advantage of the fact that dinner was not opened, Qingbei picked up his daughter's unfinished semi-finished products and carefully knitted them.
After a while, dinner was ready, and the family sat around the fire pit, and the ten-year-old eldest daughter helped her father and grandmother make porridge, and helped her sister and herself fill a bowl, and everyone picked up chopsticks and said, "I'm moving." So he began to eat, dinner was very simple, thin rice porridge, a small bowl of pickled radish, in order to let his daughter, who was still growing up, eat more, Qingbei always only ate a bowl, and then brushed the bowl with hot water at the end, drank it, and then patted his stomach and said that he was full.
The pastime after dinner is to weave a bird cage with his two daughters, and when the charcoal fire in the fire pit is about to be extinguished, he can sleep, every day so Qing Bingwei does not feel that there is anything wrong, his wife's illness and funeral cost him too much money, borrowing up to hundreds of copper coins everywhere, and now in order to repay the debt, Qing Bingwei has not taken a bath for several days, shaved his face, shaven his beard, and the smell on his body can also smoke people, and he does not pay attention to the hardships of life, as long as his two daughters can grow up healthy and healthy.
There is only one thing that can make Qing Bing Wei a little happy, that is, when his childhood friend Miss Peng Jiang came to the door, Iinuma Peng Jiang married a small feudal lord a few years ago, and his life was unfortunate, he was beaten and angry all day long, and when he came home from divorce not long ago, he would come to Qing Bing Wei to come to help with housework, cooking, etc., whenever this time Qing Bing Wei's heart would be filled with a sense of happiness, even sweeter than the days when he first got married, as for marrying Peng Jiang, he didn't dare to think about a big beauty like Peng Jiang, and the family conditions were good, I was afraid that he would not be able to look down on himself as a poor bastard anyway。
was thinking about it, the youngest daughter crawled over, sat down in Qing Bingwei's arms, and said in a milky voice: "Daddy, Aunt Pengjiang came here today and asked me if I would like to call her a mother." ”

Qing Bingwei's brain is hot, and Pengjiang really has this meaning! To marry himself as a wife, in fact, he has long agreed with this in his heart, but he is not sure, but now that he is good, his daughter's words made him firm in confidence, and he said seriously: "Then you say that you are willing, it's not early, go to bed soon." ”
Beat his daughter Qing Bing Wei touched a few money on his body, ready to go to the soup room to take a bath, and then repair his head, tomorrow to ask for leave to go to the Iinuma family to propose marriage, and was about to go out, suddenly heard a drum sound in the distance, this is the war drum of the feudal lord's mansion, if it is not an important thing, it will not be sounded, Qing Bingwei quickly grabbed his sword, put on the clogs, and didn't care about taking a bath, and ran quickly towards the feudal lord's mansion in the night.
Dozens of samurai clansmen had gathered in the feudal lord's mansion, and the lord of the samurai family had personally instructed that the feudal lord was now at a meeting in Edo, and a letter was coming that there was a gang of gangsters who had taken the emperor hostage and wanted to go to war with the shogun, and that the Kaisaka Domain, as a loyal vassal of the shogunate, should send troops to participate in the war, and the samurai would have to go out overnight to say goodbye to their families.
But the samurai didn't even bring all the equipment, just a long and a short two swords with them, and since ancient times, they have to say goodbye to their families when they go on expeditions, and they can only keep safe by tying the belt sewn by their wives around their waists, why are they in such a hurry this time that they have to leave overnight?
Three days later, an army composed of Tokugawa Iemitsu, the great shogun, and daimyo loyal to the shogunate, assembled west of Edo, and the leading army was the Sendai Iimyo Daimyo Date clan, the seventeenth governor of the Date clan, and His Excellency Date Masamune, who was known as the one-eyed dragon, was in his 60s this year, and was still in good spirits and fighting on the front line.
The Tokugawa shogun did not come to the front line, but gave carte blanche to His Excellency Date in the line, and at the front were the retainers of the shogun, all of whom were dressed in brand-new swords and bows, and rode majestically, followed by a large group of ashigaru with a hat and a spear, and behind that was the mysterious iron cannon team, which was hidden behind the shield and used as a killer force. This battle can be regarded as a rare large-scale scene in recent decades, and thousands of troops were mobilized.
Looking at the shogunate army with bright armor, the samurai from the various daimyo couldn't help but secretly envy their hurry, the armor was not ready, and the shogunate only provided some cloth belts for them to tie up their sleeves, and the food was also very general, just rice balls and umeboshi, and the samurai complained, only Seibei felt that it was much better, than his own porridge.
War drums rumbled, war horses neighed, flags waved, and with the dancing of Masamune's fan, the cavalry and infantry took turns attacking the emperor and the army on the opposite side, and the Seibei was too far away to see the situation ahead, and he could only hear the sound of horses' hooves and the faint sound of killing in the distance.
After mobilizing so many troops, I'm afraid that this battle will not be won in a long time, the samurai all think like this in their hearts, everyone knows that the emperor is just a puppet, and the annual living expenses have to rely on the shogunate to release the emperor's decree, and even the palace can't go out, what kind of recruitment do he use to recruit troops and buy horses, and fight against the general, I'm afraid that there are hundreds of ten rebellious ministers and thieves who don't know the height of the sky, and the emperor and the general are against it, the general attaches great importance to this matter, not only sending the most elite iron artillery team, but also inviting Boss Date out to command, and summoning so many samurai under the daimyo, such a luxurious lineup is difficult to defeat。
After a while, news came from the front, and the victory was won. Then the crowd rejoiced: "Half here! "Everything was expected, the emperor faction lost, the samurai didn't have to play, they could go home, everyone was in a good mood, and began to ridicule, and the heart that Kiyobei had been hanging on was also put down, because his sword was sold as early as when his wife was at the funeral, and now what is inserted in his waist is just a bamboo sword, if he really wants to go into battle, it is not only a dead end.
In the midst of the cheers, suddenly there were several loud noises in front, and then the front army retreated like a tide, and the ashigaru people broke their heads one by one, and the samurai also threw off their armor and looked terrified.
How did you lose? The Qing Guards didn't have time to think about it, and they were swept back by the surging defeated soldiers.
After the 27th year of the Japanese kingdom and the decade-long war of the end of the war, the Japanese kingdom fell into a hundred years of chaos, which was not foreseen by those who participated in the first battle.
