Tsukahara Bu Chuan, one of the two great swordsmen who was named the Sword Master in Japanese history, and one of them was Kamiizumi Nobutsuna, who had been his disciple. He was the son of Kakuken Bube, the priest and abbot of Kashima Jingu, and was born in Kashima, Hitachi. Young name Chaoxiao. Later, he became the adopted son of Tsukahara Yasang. From his biological father, he learned the ancient stream of Kashima and the place where he adopted his father, and he learned the true incense and Shinto stream. In addition, he learned the "secret sword" from Matsumoto Bizen Shoukatsu? Ichino Tai Sword" (there is also a saying that he created his own moves).

Later, at the request of Matsumoto Bizen Mamoru, Bu Den instructed the 16-year-old Kamiizumi Nobutsuna and helped him complete the special training of the Kashima family (that is, a total of 1,000 trials in three days and three nights), and later went to Kyoto to teach the shogun Ashikaga Yoshiteru and Yoshiaki swordsmanship, and many daimyo also followed Bu Den to learn martial arts. Ise Kuniji, Kitabatake is the most outstanding of Bu Chuan's disciples, Bu Chuan's stunt "Secret Sword? Ichino Tai Sword" was taught to him.

"Hehe, the so-called 'heart and technique' are three in one, 'heart' refers to your spirit, 'skill' naturally refers to your martial arts, and 'body' is your body. Just like a sword, it is divided into three ranks, the first 'force' is the strength of the sword, alluding to the hard training of one's personal ability in the early stage of sword learning, the second 'skill' is for the skill, alluding to the martial arts honed in the middle of sword learning, and the third 'position' is for the spirit, alluding to the mentality of the sword wielder and the perception of life. In this way, we can be invincible in harmony with the spirit of heaven and earth! ”

"Lord Bu Chuan really has a high opinion, and Ling Zai admires it." Even the mystery of Tsukahara Buden's famous stunt Ichino Taidao has been said, combined with the age of this fifty-year-old man, who else would it be if it wasn't Tsukahara Buden?

"Hehe, I didn't expect that the old name could be known by the Hizen Guardian." At this time, Tsukahara Buchuan didn't know that Masayo Michi had been promoted by the shogunate.

Although now I know that the other party is the famous Tsukahara Bu Chuan. But this did not make Masato relax his guard in the slightest. Opposite. even cheered up and secretly watched out. After laughing, the other party is a master who can take people's lives with a gesture. It is said that he went to the battlefield 37 times in his life, and only 19 times in the real sword competition, and beheaded more than 20 famous generals, but he actually killed 222 enemies, and only suffered six arrow wounds, and never suffered any sword injuries. Such a fierce one. It's not okay to be careful.

Tsukahara Buchuan, who obviously felt that Masara was vigilant again, smiled, and then said: "Don't worry, the guardian doesn't need to worry, I just happened to pass by here, and I didn't want to meet you today and was delayed by the battle between you and the lord of this place. ”

"I see, it seems that Kansuke Yamamoto and Hakaze Ruzuki have both studied martial arts with Tsukahara Buden, so I think it's not wrong." Zheng Zheng pondered in his conscience.

Since the other party came with no malice this time, of course Zhengliang should be more enthusiastic. So he hurriedly said: "Master Bu Chuan said that the martial arts below are lacking, I don't know if Lord Bu Chuan can say everything or two?" ”

"Huh. In the lower view, the 'technique' and 'body' of the two of the three skills of the guardian adults are already good, but the 'mind' still needs to continue to practice. "The implication of Tsukahara Buchuan is that Masahiro is a showman, and he is strong in martial arts.

Zhengliang was not angry when he heard this, and said bluntly: "Hehe, Lord Buchuan, the so-called people in the world, each has its own duties. Farmers farm, monks worship Buddha, merchants do business, and swordsmen learn martial arts. It is the duty of the people to ensure that they are able to carry out their responsibilities. This martial art is just a self-defense technique. ”

In fact, Tsukahara Buchuan also knew that Masayo's own martial arts were not trained at all, but could be learned through the system after accumulating enough experience. After learning, after a period of practice, you will be able to reach the proficiency of the skills. Similarly, for the physique, you only need to use the system to increase your attributes. In this process, of course, there is a lot less experience of martial arts.

Of course, Tsukahara's words are not wrong. For example, in the martial arts competition with Tsukahara Buchuan, if it is the same as Tsukahara Buden in the 'technique' and 'body', Masayo who lacks experience in martial arts is likely to lose to Tsukahara Buden, after all, between master competitions, there is often a slight difference between the winners to determine the outcome of the outcome.

And Masaara's words, in the eyes of Tsukahara Buchuan, were a good answer, so he bowed to Masayo and said: "The guardian is broad-minded, and I admire it." ”

The encounter with Tsukahara Bu Chuan was a complete accident, but the two also had a good conversation, and after reaching the end of the day, Masara even invited Tsukahara Bu Chuan to the Luo family as a swordsman teacher.

Of course, Zhengliang's invitation was naturally politely rejected by the other party. After arriving at the end of the day, Tsukahara Bu Chuan left the following sentence and left:

"His Royal Highness Zhengliang, when I see him today, let me admire His Highness's ambition quite a lot, and I hope to make a New Year's friend like His Highness, and welcome His Highness to Changlu in the future, and then I will talk about martial arts with His Highness."

"Tokiriku? One day I will go there, and then you will naturally be willing to serve as the swordsmanship teacher of your own family. Looking at Tsukahara Buchuan's distant figure, Masara muttered.

After sending off Tsukahara Buden, Masarashi set his sights on Egawa Castle again. Since Naru Morinobu returned, there has been no news of Uku Mori in Egawa Castle.

"It seems that we have to completely extinguish the hope of Yujiu Shengding!" Masahiro muttered to himself. So he immediately ordered the Iron Artillery Brigade, which was on standby at Futian Castle on the Nagasaki Peninsula, to join the battle.

According to Masahiro's idea, this time the strategy for the five islands is not intended to be used by iron cannons. There are two reasons for this, one is that the current cold and occasionally rainy weather is not conducive to the use of iron cannons; However, in the first battle of the confrontation with the Otomo family last year, Masarashi took the opportunity to practice a large number of iron artillery team in combat, which also led to the consumption of a large amount of gunpowder storage, and a lot of iron artillery failures because of this, so Masarashi planned to let the iron artillery team temporarily rest for a while. Now, in order to reduce the siege time and casualties, they have to be used again.

At noon on the second day, Andel arrived with the Iron Artillery Brigade. After a short rest, Masarashi officially ordered the Iron Artillery Team to participate in the siege battle.

At this time, Egawa Castle Ichimaru had been occupied by the Luo family, and the guards in the city could only defend themselves on the walls hiding in Nimaru. What's even more important is that due to the sudden response to the battle, and the fact that these soldiers usually fight mainly on the water, and pay more attention to the broadside battle, they do not have many bows and arrows in their hands at this time.

Seeing that the enemy could not hold out, and that there was a lack of bows and arrows, Ander confidently and boldly advanced the iron artillery team to the Egawa Castle Ichimaru, which was just enough to attack the defenders on the Niwan city wall to the maximum.

Seeing that the iron cannon ashigaru had finished loading the projectile, Andel waved his hand and hurriedly ordered the iron cannon ashigaru: "Shoot!" ”

"Bang, bang, bang." The sound of iron cannons continued to sound.

With the loud noise and gunsmoke, on the wall of Ermaru in Egawa Castle, there were more than a dozen ashigaru killed in an instant due to the lack of reaction, most of the guards responsible for defending the city were just some ordinary fishermen, like iron cannons, and fire-breathing, and smoking weapons, unheard of, unseen, frightened They squatted down one after another, not daring to show their heads, and even more, they had already thrown down the weapons in their hands and ran in the direction of the inner city.

Seeing this, three or four samurai such as Uku Mori and more than 20 banners hurriedly came to the city wall to supervise the battle, and they first dissuaded the fleeing ashigaru, and if they did not listen, they would draw their swords and cut them, and they would not be merciful.

After doing this several times, the defenders of the city gradually became accustomed to the weapon of iron cannons after paying the price of more than forty lives. But it paid a heavy price for this, and the defenders of the city were now less than 200 people. And on the outside, it was more than ten times the siege force of the Luo family in the city. If the Luo family forcibly attacked several times, it is estimated that it will not be far from the fall of the city.

"Lord, now that we have lost one percent of our troops, but the enemy is unharmed, if we continue like this, it won't be long before Jiangchuan City will be breached, so my subordinates apply to go out of the city to fight the enemy in the field, please ask for your approval." Seeing such a scene, some of the retainers of Wu Yong immediately asked to fight.

Yu Jiu Shengding smiled bitterly in his heart after hearing this, now no one in the entire Kyushu does not know that the military strength of the Luo family is famous for being good at field warfare, plus the eagle of the fat front is both wise and brave, and now it is estimated that the other party is trying to lure him out of the city. You can't be fooled by what you say yourself.

After holding on for a while, seeing that the enemy did not attack, but just kept shooting, he thought that the iron cannons that the Luo family had begun to spread in the Warring States should consume a lot of ammunition, and it would not take a few rounds for the enemy's projectiles to run out, as long as he held on for a while, the enemy could only take a strong attack, as long as they were willing to engage in close combat, then he was confident that he would be able to repel the enemy with the advantage of the city wall. Now it's time to see how long we can support it.

However, things did not develop according to his ideas, the ammunition of the enemy army outside the city seemed to be inexhaustible and inexhaustible, seeing that it had been fired for a few rounds, it still had no intention of stopping, and the siege army of the Luo family outside the city had begun to redeploy, and it was very necessary to forcibly attack the city again.

Just as he was pondering, another round of iron cannons sounded outside the city, and seeing that several more relatives fell lightly, Yujiu Junding, who had not spoken before, finally spoke: "Elder brother, for the sake of today, one is to open the city gate, start a field battle with the Luo family, and then take advantage of the chaos to break through; Instead, he agreed to the conditions of the Luo family and surrendered. If you hesitate like this again, after the Luo family invades the city, the family will be wiped out. (To be continued......)
