Non-Honmaru Inner Honwan [Comprehensive]

Chapter 362

Five Tigers did meet Uesugi Kenshin, and did not alarm anyone.

Fu Sangshen had a keen sense of smell and could easily smell the decaying corpse.But they, who were incarnate with swords, had no fear of the dead, so these strange auras had no effect on the retreat of the five tigers.He didn't rush to open the coffin and admire Uesugi Kenshin's appearance, but just knelt on the ground, resting his head on the long barrel-shaped coffin, with a calm expression and no words.

The distance between the five tigers retreating and the corpse was only a layer of wood.Although the morale of the Uesugi Army has been disintegrated, the influence of Uesugi Kenshin still continues after his death. For the Japanese who don’t care about the body after death, they will set up a tent for Uesugi Kenshin’s coffin, as if he is still alive As always, this is already amazing respect.Now there is no one in the tent, and even the light shouts and footsteps during the footsteps patrol seem to come from a distant place, and the most clear and obvious sound in the tent is Wuhu's own shallow breathing.

He closed his eyes in silence, and stretched out his hands to embrace the coffin in a kneeling position.It wasn't until it was getting dark that he withdrew his hand and stood up again - sitting on his knees all night was not enough for Fu Sangshen to affect his mobility, at most it was just red knees.Before the ashigaru guys took down the tent, he quietly left the army—probably the "sword man" who was temporarily re-incorporated into Akechi Mitsuhide's side by Tsurumaru Kuninaga. The state, that is, although invisible, the body is solid and can be covered by clothing to outline the appearance.

He shuttled between the ashigaru cautiously and nimbly, and returned to Baihu's side easily, waiting quietly.It wasn't until the army moved again that he brought the grown tiger forward at the speed of the army.

It wasn't until he saw Uesugi Kenshin's coffin being sent to Echigo, stayed in Kasugayama Castle for a while, and then transported to Ou, and buried in Yonezawa Castle, that his usually docile eyes burst into tears.

After that, the five tigers retreated without delay, and quickly returned to Danbo.

The fall of Uesugi Kenshin is hard not to shock and sigh the people of this era, but even if there is more respect for Uesugi Kenshin, it is impossible for the already chaotic current situation to let go of this sudden death.Almost at the same time as Uesugi Kenshin fell ill and fell into a coma, Utaki Nao's family successfully took down Kazuki Castle, which was supposed to be controlled by Hashiba Hideyoshi's men; and when the Five Tigers returned, Akechi Mitsuhide had already surrounded Hachigami Castle, Eyes aimed at Hideji Hatano.

The Oda siege network that was almost formed before was naturally collapsed because of the withdrawal of the Uesugi army. Honganji Temple was originally just a group of monks and soldiers. If it was a temporary confrontation, their ferocity was enough to make people fearful; but if it turned into a long-term confrontation, The lack of stamina of Honganji Temple is displayed.This situation appeared when Maori used the navy to deliver food and grass to Honganji Temple. After Uesugi Kenshin went to Luo, because he played a role in restraining Oda from the rear, Hongan Temple's behavior of raising food and grass was finally smoother.It's a pity that the Uesugi Army came and went in a hurry this time, Honganji still needs to rely on Maori's assistance in the end.

Naturally, such an obvious weakness cannot be ignored by Oda—in the union between Honganji and Maori, the Maori family is dominant.Therefore, without any hesitation, Saburo immediately issued a request to send troops to Osaka!

On April [-]th, Oda Nobutada, Akechi Mitsuhide and others were ready to go, and made full preparations for the food and grass in the future!

Where is Saburo at this time!

...Of course he finished sumo wrestling and hunting in Kyoto, and went to see Bao Changzhu. In the end, he was promoted to the right minister by the imperial court, and he resigned from his original position as the right general ah.

With Saburo's sincere and self-indulgent behavior, it is really difficult for people to judge whether he is serious about showing his strength in Kyoto and negotiating with the court.Looking at the results alone, Saburo's appearance of not being moved by Kenshin Uesugi's attack and exit during that period of time is really confusing. In the end, he was promoted again. Maybe the court wanted to change the relationship with him. It is closer... However, from Saburo's own point of view, the fun brought by the carefree play may not necessarily be as interesting as the fun of attacking the world (writing history) in person.Regardless of intentional or not, Saburo was forcibly placed in Kyoto, completely ignoring the dissuasion of his retainers, and made the decision "this time we must bring his own army to go there", and even set a departure time by himself——

Then, just two days before he was about to set off, heavy rains hit, and even the newly built bridge was washed away.

This time, the sudden torrential rain was so powerful that it seemed that in just one night, news of floods came from all over the place.Although Saburo has led troops to make raids in the rain several times, the rain at that time and the rainstorm now are obviously two different concepts-all roads that can be walked are filled with rainwater, so many people drowned. Sending troops at this time is almost equivalent to seeking death.

The Oda family is mostly ashigaru, and the amount of water that can drown a person is naturally impossible to spare the soldiers of the Oda family alone-even if Saburo's luck is really appalling.The number of cavalry is limited, and it is not impossible to walk in the water, but the speed is much slower, and there are many debris in the water, which can easily hurt the horse.Taking a step back, even if the possibility of injury is small, it is impossible for a horse to be soaked in water for a long time.Once a horse dies from cold and disease, the loss will be more serious than that of Ashgaru.

"I understand what you're saying." Facing the bitter persuasion of his retainers, San Lang solemnly raised his hands and covered his ears, vividly expressing his refusal to listen, and the words he said were also sonorous and forceful , "—but I still want to fight!"

"...No, why are you so insisting on going out in person..."

"Because it's Maori's home field over there." Saburo asked inexplicably, "Isn't it normal for the general to go there if there is a war?"

"...However, His Highness Nobuchu, who is the governor of the family, has already gone to the Shanyin and Shanyang areas."

"—Yes! Because everyone is still very obedient, so I forgot about it if I didn't pay attention." Saburo suddenly realized, "Nobutada is also a person who can represent the Oda family, and he is also very capable."

"That's right, so please—"

"I still want to go." Saburo said, "Get ready to go."

Retainer: "..."

Saburo's willful, brutal and domineering reputation has not been washed away for a long time under the premise that he is clearly easy to get along with. A large part of the reason is that although his brutal and domineering has never been seen by others, his willful and willful behavior actually exists and makes people Difficult to deal with.Even if the vast majority of retainers are admonishing, they still have room for fear because they are afraid. This kind of unsteady admonition (also because they originally thought that Saburo should not be afraid of rainstorms) is naturally difficult to convince Saburo.In addition, almost all the veterans of the Oda family gathered in Osaka this time and marched towards the San'in-Sanyo area, and the remaining few—such as Hori Hidemasa and others—had no problem with Saburo's thoughts at all.

"His Royal Highness has always taken the lead from the past." The handsome valet was not at all surprised that San Lang would make such a choice - he was in the closest position to San Lang all the year round, and he had a deep understanding of Saburo's ability to act and make decisions, "Your Highness Do you have a plan for how to march?"

"Since you can't walk, let's take a boat." Saburo said in a natural tone, "This time, Nobutada will go with Nobutaka."

"Yes, His Highness Nobutada, Nobutaka, and Nobuo are all going to the Sanyin-Sanyang area this time." Hidemasa Hori replied.

"Nobutada and Nobuko are like Xiaoguang, super reliable." Saburo praised.

"So the lineup over there is enough—" The number of people who drowned in the heavy rain continued to increase. It would be very risky to go out in this kind of weather even if there were ships, and the retainers, even if they were weak, still wanted to persuade them.

"The lineup has nothing to do with me." Saburo said seriously, "Because I have no experience in fighting for world hegemony before—although I don't know how (historical) 'Oda Nobunaga' will succeed in doing it, but this kind of thing just It’s not okay to sit in the back and watch Xiaoguang and the others dispatch troops.”

No one can refute his words.

"Then Xiaojiu to see the situation of the water flow." Seemingly unaware of the silence of the retainers, Saburo, who crushed the past with his own will as always, waved at Hidemasa Hori, and said solemnly, "If there is no problem, follow the original plan." Time to go!"

Saburo was originally scheduled to play on May [-]th.The torrential rain began to pour down on the [-]th. Coir raincoats and hats are completely useless in this kind of "crazy" weather. The continuous rain seems to have no possibility of stopping at all, and even breathing is wet with water vapor .Hidemasa Hori, who took the order to go, complied straightforwardly at the time, and it was impossible for him to be obedient and disobedient afterwards——Different from his feminine and beautiful appearance, Hidemasa Hori was extremely tenacious in nature, and in order to check the situation of the water flow, he repeatedly He was almost caught in the water, but his expression remained unchanged.It was especially difficult to go forward and return in the rain. Even though Hori Hidemasa worked very hard, he only returned to the place where Saburo was on the evening of the twelfth, and fully revealed the situation he had investigated.

It is feasible to travel by boat! !

Hori Hidemasa is currently only Saburo's close attendant, and holds the position of executive, but his reliability is already known to everyone in the Oda family. The information he brought back from his adventure this time involves Saburo's personal safety. "This conclusion is accurate.The preparations for the ships did not take much time because Sanlang had a firm control over Kinai, and all preparations were completed at noon on the [-]th!

Then, just as Saburo boarded the ship with his army, the rain stopped.

Everyone: "..."

The so-called strong luck is about to break out, which really makes people defenseless.Rao, some of the retainers present did not trust the word "Mandate of Heaven". They couldn't help doubting that the two formidable enemies, Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin, both fell before confronting Saburo face to face, and the heavy rain stopped on the day they entered the battle. Come to think of it, in this troubled world, is there really a "mandate of heaven"—and chose Oda Nobunaga over Ashikaga Yoshiaki, who was the general who conquered the barbarians.

The more you explore Saburo's previous combat experience, the more you can see the coincidences.The cumulative experience of turning danger into a bargain this time makes it almost difficult to judge whether Saburo's intuition and sensitivity are so sensitive that people can be mistaken for a prophet, or whether he is really destined to end this troubled world.

Saburo never cared about the complicated psychology of the retainers.He also knew the extent of the rainstorm before, but now that the rain stopped, he just stretched his eyebrows, and announced in a light and casual tone: "What a coincidence—since the rain has stopped, let's go."

Destiny: Be silly.I can't make the Ashgaru of the Oda family drown, but I can stop the rain.

↑ Just kidding.In fact, I was just spoofing the destiny stem.

Uesugi Kenshin is a coffin, that is, a barrel-shaped coffin. This is actually my guess.

As for the tomb of Uesugi Kenshin, I read on Encyclopedia that his remains were placed in Yonezawa Castle, and after the Restoration, they were reburied in the Uesugi Family Temple, and there are Kenshin’s tombs in Kasugayama Linquan Temple and Koyasan.Because he didn't know the transport route of his remains, he stayed in Echigo here for a while, and was buried in Yonezawa Castle in Ou.

By the way, Yonezawa Castle is the birthplace of Date Masamune.

During that period of history, Oda Nobunaga's itinerary was: organizing a sumo match on February 29, leading an eagle hunt on March 23, and returning to Azuchi on March [-].On March [-], he went to Luo again, and moved to the new residence of Nijo. On April [-], he was recruited by the Shinbo chief to give him a hundred pieces of gold and sent someone to escort him to Yuezhong. (The above is from Nobunaga Koji) On April [-], he was promoted to Minister of the Right (from Gongqing's replacement).

Comparing Hideyoshi and Mitsuhide who were busy fighting during that time... tsk tsk tsk.

Nobunaga's scheduled battle was on May 11th, but it rained heavily on the morning of the [-]th.This is from Nobunaga Koji No.[-] volume.

And I read "The Biography of Oda Nobunaga" written by Changsheng of the Red Army, which said that Hidecho Hashiba was stationed at Takeda Castle in June, but I read that it was in November last year (1577) At that time, he was already stationed at Zhutian Castle.

I also made up Hidemasa Hori's investigation of the water flow and so on. The original text of "Nobunaga Koji" is as follows: [Even in such a flood, Nobunaga still did not change the original date of the battle, and everyone thought that it was still possible to go out by boat, so Yodo, Toba, Uji, Makishima and Yamazaki prepared hundreds of boats and went to the five (actually three) oil trails, setting up their sails and oars and getting ready].

By the way, Nobunaga did not make it as scheduled.Hahaha.

IF route: If the Five Tigers retreat and see Uesugi Kenshin for the last time——

Uesugi Kenshin felt in a trance that his time had come.

His body was weakening at a speed that even he himself could not believe.It has only been three days since he fell ill, but Kenshin Uesugi recalled the man who drank alcohol on the horse three days ago, but felt that he seemed to exist only a few decades ago--the current rapid coma, exhaustion, difficulty The moving body obviously should not be possessed by him until several decades later.

His body was so weak in just a few days, it was as if he had been stolen from him for decades.

He had only fainted once half an hour ago—these days, he had been sober very rarely, so no one thought that he would reopen his eyes so soon this time.There was no one in the tent for the time being, only the door curtain was slightly opened to maintain ventilation, but the tent was not cold because of this, and the temperature was still warm and dry suitable for recuperation.

His little surname was sitting outside the tent, waiting for his orders at any time.

Uesugi Kenshin did not immediately call his surname to come in.He was lying in a relatively soft quilt, his breathing was heavy and undulating, just listening to the sound of his breathing was like an old man who was dying.

When he was really facing death, Uesugi Kenshin thought he would feel fear—or even before he died, he was also worried about Uesugi’s heirs and who would assist Lord Gongfang (Ashikaga Yoshiaki) after his death .But perhaps it was because he had been upright all his life and believed in Buddhism. At this moment, his heart was extremely peaceful. The various chores that frequently plagued him before he sent troops were like nightmares that he had been freed from. That sense of urgency.

He panted heavily, his eyes wandered around the empty tent, and finally fell on the armor and sword that had been put aside and should have been worn on him on the day he went out into battle.The five tigers, which were his protective daggers, were placed closest to him. The scabbard, dotted with black dots like the fur of a white tiger, concealed the sharp and aggressive blade. At first glance, it looked as harmless as a decoration.

Uesugi Kenshin looked at the dagger and couldn't help laughing.

His body was extremely weak, and his facial muscles were also abnormally stiff. This simple thing of pulling the corners of his mouth took a lot of energy from him.He didn't see how the Five Tigers gave the "Five Tigers" to Hojo Ushihide, but it didn't prevent him from imagining that child—no, that tearful and resolute look.Even now that his mind is chaotic and it is difficult for him to stay awake for a long time, he can still clearly describe the appearance of the white-haired boy in his mind.

His meeting and getting along with this "Five Tigers Retirement" is like a plot that only appears in a ghost novel.

It's a pity that although he gave Wuhu a set of clothes back, he didn't leave time for that child to try on the clothes.Even though he has seen the finished product, the appearance of Wu Hutui is very clear. What he can remember now is the emaciated appearance of Wuhutui in military uniform when he first appeared in front of him.

Thinking about it now, I feel a little regretful.

Uesugi Kenshin was thinking vaguely like this, and unconsciously said softly: "The five tigers retreat..."

Now the root of his tongue is stiff, his words are slurred, and his voice is too soft.Xiao Xing, who was guarding outside, originally wanted to come in with a spirit, but counting the time, he felt that this was probably Kenshin Uesugi's raving in his dream, so he continued to sit at the door, guarding the tent with a knife.

However, after Uesugi Kenshin's already vague call, there was actually a timid voice: "...Yes. I am here."

Uesugi Kenshin suddenly wanted to open his eyes wide, but before they were fully opened, his eyelids were already tired and weak.So he simply closed his eyes halfway like this, and said in a familiar tone with his voice still weak and soft, like floating in the clouds: "You're here."

"Yes. I... I haven't been able to resist my selfishness, and I still want to come to you." Wuhu Tui's voice was very clear, but he didn't disturb the little surname at the door, "Because you said that you don't want to see me again , so I, I'm outside the tent now. I won't come in without permission!"

"...Silly boy." Uesugi Kenshin said, "You came here because you knew I would die here?"

"Yes……"

"Sure enough." Uesugi Kenshin said lightly, "Then how is your life after you return to Oda Nobunaga?"

As if he didn't expect Kenshin Uesugi to ask him about his recent situation at this time, the five tigers retreated silently for a while before answering.

"——Nobunaga-kun is very good to me. Akechi-san is too. While I was away, my brother also went to Oda's house... this time he is also taking care of me."

"Do you have a brother? This is also a good thing for you." Uesugi Kenshin said, "But you can't rely too much on him...you have to be a man."

Saying this, his breathing suddenly sank, as if his throat was blocked by something, and he could only make a breathy sound of "ho ho" for a moment.

"Master Jinghu!"

"...I'm fine." After a while, Uesugi Kenshin calmed down, his voice was a little hoarse than before, "Although you were born in this world only a few years ago...but the days of living as a 'sword' should be It must be dozens of times, hundreds of times longer."

"Yes, that's right..."

"My life, in your life, can only be regarded as occupying a moment." Uesugi Kenshin stated in this way, when he said this, his voice was faintly smiling, "Thinking about it this way , It’s really like a dream.”

"..."

"I am to you, and you are to me, it is like a dream."

From his description, Wu Hutui keenly grasped something, and when he spoke again, his voice was a little panicked: "——please don't say that! Master Jinghu!!"

"49 years a sleep—"

"Master Jinghu!"

"Phase [-] Prosperity and a glass of wine."

"Please don't say any more!"

However, no matter how mournful the five tigers retreated, Kenshin Uesugi in the tent calmly and unaffectedly completed the last two sentences: "...life is unknown, death is unknown, time is just like a dream."

In 49 years, a dream, a glass of wine in the first phase of prosperity.I don't know life or death, and the years are just like a dream.

This is the death song of Kenshin Uesugi in history.

The military commander in the tent couldn't see the situation outside, he could only hear the childish cry: "Are you crying, back?"

But the only answer to him was "Master Jing Hu" who was full of five tigers and choked with sobs.

"I've told you many times—it's not okay for a boy to cry so much." After saying the death song, Uesugi Kenshin's spirit seemed to be even more sluggish, his half-closed eyes were completely closed, and his voice became louder. He was humble, but he still insisted on finishing what he wanted to say, "...don't let the illusions in your life hold you back."

In the end, he said, his voice was as soft as a breath.

"I-I know. I've been...remembering..."

The words of Wuhu Tui were shattered by the crying.

The thin Fu Sangshen squatted behind the tent, his arms tightly wrapped around himself, tears fell continuously, and his sleeves were soon soaked.

He was wearing clothes given to him by Kenshin Uesugi.Because I have always cherished it, even after coming here in such a long and dusty way, there are not many wrinkles on the clothes.

After crying for a long time, Wu Hutui still didn't hear Uesugi Kenshin's voice.

"Master Jinghu"

He leaned against the tent and kept calling.

"Master Jinghu!"

But apart from Xiaoxing muttering to himself with a frowning face, and the footsteps of patrolling ashigaru, there were no other sounds.

As if he had noticed something, Wu Hu turned his face up in a daze, the tears in his eyes had slipped down before he knew it, and he still murmured to himself in a daze.

"...Master Jinghu"

———— IF route END.

And in history, Kenshin Uesugi seemed to die under the gaze and siege of his retainers.I don't know the details, the IF route is private.

In the end, I still couldn't see the appearance of wearing polarized clothes.Lord Kenshin.
