Chapter 363
Chapter 363
The torrential rain stops as soon as it stops, but the raging stagnant water cannot retreat as soon as it is said.
The boat is not that big—at least it can't be compared with the boat used by the Oda family for water warfare or the new boat that Kuki Yoshitaka is now focusing on building.The boats assembled in a short period of time are only to respond to Saburo's willful request and to be used as a substitute for transportation at this moment. Therefore, the craftsmanship is naturally rough and neglected. Make a boat shape.Saburo still doesn't feel much about this-as one of the few people with extremely high social status in this era, he is really a little too easy to live with.
Of course, the boat Sanlang was going to board was one of the rare boats with a canopy.Even though the canopy is narrow and dark, and the ventilation is poor, the man who still can't tell his age from his appearance rushed up, and walked around inside with a face full of novelty, and then walked out as usual without caring about his own safety. With the terrified expressions on the faces of the retainers, they jumped from the bow of the ship to another empty boat without a canopy.
The boat shook violently a few times, as if it was about to turn over at any time, but it still held up the impact brought by Saburo's sudden jump.Unaware that if he was not careful, he might fall into the water on the spot, Sanlang sat down on the boat, touched the rough and slightly wet edge of the boat with one hand, and said in a nostalgic tone:
"When I went to rescue Guidie's father, I also took this kind of boat back and forth."
He rarely speaks in such a tone.No matter what he says or does, Saburo has a strong sense of self-confidence. While this self-confidence gives his followers confidence, it will inevitably create a barrier between him and others, making the retainers of the Oda family They both respect and fear him, even though Saburo is equal, they dare not accept this kind of equality, and take the initiative to stand in the position of the inferior.
It’s rare to see Saburo miss—and it’s not because he misses unheard-of foods such as "raw eight bridges" (because the era of this kind of snack has not yet come out), or misses the time when "everyone obviously didn't stop me from climbing trees" It was a short-lived and superficial emotion that would disappear as soon as it was blown, but it was indeed deeply missing a certain person. After being surprised, Hidemasa Hori was also a little moved.
He showed a warm smile and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to..."
"—Although I didn't do anything, I came back without even seeing anyone!"
... Hori Hidemasa's smile was still very warm, and he swallowed the words of explanation as if nothing had happened.
Hori Hidemasa didn't know much about Saburo's rescue of Saito Dozo - he was only three years old when Saito Dozo died, so it was naturally impossible to enter Oda's house, let alone understand the inside story.But men who are familiar with the history of swords and swords know very well that there is not much friendship between Saito Dosan and Saburo. They even betrothed their daughter Guicho to Oda Nobunaga in order to ease the relationship with Oda Nobunaga. (Oda Nobunaga's father) relationship.Although Saburo often gives people the impression that he doesn't care about everything and is not sensitive to other people's malice, he is not stupid. If it is really as stated in the "history", he only exchanges interests with the Oda family Saito Dozo, it is impossible for Saburo to show such a look.
So far, there have only been three such existences that Saburo remembers - Guidie, Akechi Mitsuhide, and the dead Matsunaga Hideo.
Now on this list, there is another Saito Dozo.
Men with swords can't judge what the unified standard of these people is.Gui Die is Saburo's wife, and given his casual but responsible performance, it's not surprising that he would include this weak woman in the scope of protection.Akechi Mitsuhide... Although the men with swords don't admit it, it is reasonable for this man who has the rights of a god judge and looks the same as Saburo to be treated differently by Saburo.
Then the problem arises with Saito Michizo and Matsunaga Hideo.
These two people have not had much contact with Saburo in history and in reality.The sword men were called out by Saburo after Saito Dosan died, so it is not known how much Saito Dosan and Saburo interacted - but as far as Saburo was busy suppressing Oda Nobuyuki's rebellion during that time, Communication between the two should be very limited.Moreover, Matsunaga Hideo rarely interacts with Saburo except during the New Year or during the war. In this way, Matsunaga Hideo shouted at Saburo out of a disadvantage, and Saburo also maintained a subtle respect for Matsunaga Hideo. (And Saito Dosan may also have a similar model), how this sudden deep friendship was born is very interesting.
The men with swords who accidentally discovered the blind spot took it for granted to write down the problem, and first focused on the current incident of boarding the boat—because Saburo was determined to sit in the boat without a canopy, and he showed off in front of everyone before. Regarding the operation of temporarily changing the ship, the retainers did not think much about it and directly pushed the extraordinary swordsman onto the boat that Saburo was currently sitting on. They only hoped that when Saburo made another dangerous move, these ninjas could Respond in time to prevent Saburo from being in danger.
This arrangement is just convenient for the guards of the men with swords - to be honest, it is very rare for them to personally guard Saburo nowadays.
Under the suggestion of Akechi Mitsuhide, Saburo asked them that "the guard's sword must be 'drilled'". These sword men easily saw the core of this order that "the guard must be visible to ordinary people", so even now They can actively control the "visible" and "invisible" of the body, and they also honestly adjust the state of the body according to Saburo's original order.
Even though this would make the process of their escort a bit troublesome (Saburo and his retainers can no longer listen in on the military discussions), they still do this-if Akechi Mitsuhide knows, I am afraid they will also die because of their loyalty. Change your mind about men with swords.
The luggage was already prepared, and the soldiers and retainers boarded the ship soon.The cramped boats were packed with people, most of them stuck at the waterline.Soon, the boat sailed slowly under Saburo's order, and the sword men who followed Saburo were all on the same boat as Saburo, except for the short sword Fusangshen and a few Taidao Fusangshen, the rest Everyone has a paddle in hand, rowing silently.
Their strength is greater than that of humans, and they can easily overcome the resistance of the water flow. In addition, everyone is used to the style of Saburo rushing to the forefront. The boat is at the forefront.
Saburo sat calmly on the bow of the boat, looking down at the muddy water.
His face could not be reflected in the muddy water.The boat is long and narrow, and the draft is very shallow. Saburo can smell the muddy smell in the water even without bowing his head.
"This water is very suitable for fishing!" The former governor of the Oda family looked at it seriously for a while, and then came to this conclusion, "Since the water is rising everywhere, the fish in the river should also swim over. "
"Hahaha, that's really good." Mikazuki Zongjin laughed—Tai Dao Fusangshen, who sat on the boat and did nothing because he couldn't row a boat, didn't think about it at all, so he suggested naturally, "Then now we have to come and catch If the fish can be caught, dinner will be settled."
"—You said it's fishing at this time" Saburo turned his head, his serious expression was inexplicably oppressive—then he praised sincerely with sparkling eyes, "You're very clever, Sankayue!"
Press-cut Hasebe: "..."
Saburo: "Then let's go fishing and see who can catch more fish!"
Press cut Hasebe: "Master, it's like this, we don't have fishing nets..."
Saburo: "That's right. Then... well, use clothes instead! Whose clothes are easier to use, why don't you use mine?"
Pressing and cutting Hasebe: "No, no, no, please don't do this!"
Compared with the sudden whims of Tsurumaru Kuninaga and Sankazuki Munekin, what makes Yakiri Hasebe more difficult to deal with is the whims of the god judge.Fu Sangshen, who was meticulously rowing the boat next to Saburo, almost dropped the oar, and pulled Saburo back with a strong sense of crisis, lest the man who was wearing heavy armor just take off the armor—or Jump directly into the water to catch fish without taking off the armor.Saburo, who didn't have the slightest insight into Hasebe's worry, was caught straight. When he was pulled by Hasebe, who sincerely said, "Please stay away from the water", he still had no sense of crisis. Looking at the ups and downs of the water, he said with interest: "The fish are poking their heads out."
"Fish will float after it rains." Hasebe said, "Please stand back, even if you really want to catch fish, please leave it to me—"
"I always feel that the fish looks familiar." Sanlang continued, frowning and hesitantly said, "Hmm - have I ever eaten this kind of fish with sharp horns on its head?"
The closest to the bow, a Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada who was concentrating on rowing, and a Kikiri Hasebe who was concentrating on watching Saburo, both looked at the water.When they saw the face of "Fish", they couldn't help screaming, and they happened to say the exact same sentence as Saburo, who finally found out the source of the familiarity.
"——It's the Time Traveling Army!"
The creature that looks like a fish at first glance poking its head out of the water is the enemy dagger in the time travel army!
Their snow-white bodies like snake bones and the short knives in their mouths were covered by the muddy water, only occasionally showing a little bit of blade edge on the swaying water surface.The heavy rain had just stopped, and the sky was still gloomy. There was no reflection of sunlight on the blades. These knives held in their mouths were not inconspicuous at all. On the contrary, the empty and substantial eyes were more eye-catching.
In addition to the front of Saburo, there are also many enemy short knives sticking out of other positions on the water surface.They only scanned for a while, and noticed that the ship they were in was at the forefront and the ship where Saburo was, and all the enemy daggers immediately focused their eyes on Saburo—even if Hasebe had already reacted, the first Time stood in front of Saburo.
Being stared at by countless pairs of eyes, this feeling actually made Yaki Hasebe a little startled.
These enemy daggers did not attack.They seemed to be just confirming their positions, and after staring straight at Saburo for a while, they sank again one by one.Except for Swordsman and Saburo, no one regarded these "fish" as enemies to beware of, and even the Fusangshen could hear the voices of the boats behind, praising the abundance of aquatic products softly.
Why is there a time retrograde army at this time!
Historically, during the period when Saburo was sailing, no army attacked Saburo!If the time-traveling army wants to act at this moment, there will be no historical "enemies of Oda Nobunaga" to blame them, they will definitely be noticed by the inspectors, and the swordsmen can delay time to the inspectors The arrival of the envoy—not to mention the issue that the sword Fusangshen would also be chopped off.The time-traveling army pretended to be Matsunaga Hideo's ambush last time, which was already an adventure that challenged the bottom line of the world. Now the Maori family is still far away.
Moreover, the appearance of those enemy daggers looking straight at Saburo to "locate"... must not be those puppet-like time-traveling troops that the men with swords and swords have cleaned up countless times and only unconsciously collect surrounding information!
"What are they here for?" Izumi Mori Kanesada's position was at a later place, and he was stretching his neck to look at the water in front of him at this time, "It shouldn't be to attract prosecutors and seek their own death!"
Although the time-traveling army has good and bad IQs between individuals—otherwise they would not be secretly classified as a "commander" by the men of swords and swords, but their actions appear to be quite rigorous several times, and they are almost useless merit.Unless it's an accident, it shouldn't be within their scope of action to cause such a lose-lose thing.
It is impossible for these enemy short knives to attack Saburo directly.But since they appeared, they were not just to catch a glimpse of Saburo.
"It's a boat."
Hasebe, who was deeply tempered in the environment of the Oda family, said with a gloomy face.
"They want to create an 'accident' of 'Oda Nobunaga capsized and died'!"
Quite a few people actually drowned in this rainstorm—this incident was also reported to Saburo by the retainers of the Oda family, which is enough to show the authenticity of the incident.Even when the rainstorm ceases, the current is still strong and the depth of the ponded water is considerable.Therefore, in a broad sense, Saburo who took a small boat has the same possibility of being drowned as the farmers who came out in the rain and their houses were flooded.
... What the enemy dagger wants to grasp is such a "possibility"!
The ones that appear here cannot use the help of real troops in history to attack under false pretences, but if they do make things look like "accidents", they will naturally ensure that they will not leave traces in history. It will not attract non-violation envoys!
Being able to see through the enemy's dagger's intentions in such a short period of time, Hasebe's acumen is really outstanding.
"Then what to do next"
Press cut Hasebe: "Of course... how do I know what to do!"
Do you still want a group of swordsmen to fight water battles!This is really a water fight in the true sense!
Is the Token Fusangshin of the Oda family still alive?
"It's really difficult to deal with enemies in the water."
At this time, it was Saburo who rescued the Sword Fusangshen.With a calm tone and a serious expression, he said very reliably:
"There is a specialization in art. To deal with the retrograde army in the water, it is necessary to dispatch people with rich experience in water warfare."
Press cut Hasebe: "You're right. But we are swords—although we can't swim after becoming Fusangshin, but considering the problem of rust...it's still a bit difficult for us to fight in water."
Saburo said in surprise: "Hey, is the candlestick cut too? As a pirate, you should be very good at this kind of thing?"
Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada: "...Although I don't know why you keep associating my blindfold with pirates, I'm really not a pirate."
"If you can't cut the candlesticks, there's nothing you can do." Saburo said regretfully, "It seems impossible to ask everyone (the army) behind to come - because the water is too muddy. It would be great if there is foreign aid."
This little episode also only took a few minutes to pass.The fact that the enemy dagger was in the water now gave the sword men a sense of urgency.They don't have much time to think, and they don't know what kind of offensive the other party will launch. Everyone is trying to use their brains, but it is in vain because there is no clue.
It wasn't until Izumi Mori Kanesada's eyes fell on the side of the boat that he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he opened his mouth and said: "If you want to make the illusion of an 'accident', then the time retrograde army can't leave knife marks on the boat, and this time the previous It is impossible for the enemies who come to have 'humanoid' existence!"
Once the time-traveling army of humanoids—such as enemy swords and enemy swords—is lurking in the water, they may be seen by the troops behind when they tamper with the ship. The existence of the "ambush" that should appear.Therefore, the only thing that will appear in the water this time is the enemy dagger - not even the enemy who has a human-like upper body and a spider-like lower body has the chance to appear.
Likewise, to make things an "accident," enemy knives cannot destroy ships.The difference between the knife mark and the gap caused by the collision is obvious. If Saburo really "capsized and drowned" as they wished, the Oda family's retainers would not even check the condition of the boat that Saburo was on at that time after the incident.In reverse, as long as the enemy's dagger destroys Saburo's ship, he will be discovered by the non-violation envoy.Even if there is a "commander" with human-like intelligence in the enemy dagger that has no hands and feet and relies on the tail to control its actions, there is only one unexpected way to choose—that is, when the ship is about to turn or drive to a place where the current is the most turbulent , turn the top of the boat over.
"And there can't be too many enemy knives this time!" Izumi Mori Kanesada added.
Whether it is Fu Sangshen or the Time Traveling Army, the strength cannot be inferred from ordinary people's values.At the same time, although the enemy sword can confuse the eyes of Ashgaru and his retainers at this time because of its snake-like appearance, making them mistakenly think that the water is fish, but too many "fish" gather near Saburo's boat, which is not true A vision that can be easily skipped in "history". There are too many "fish" and it is easy to attract attention, so you can find the abnormal double horns on their heads.
The ships will not be destroyed, and the number of enemy short knives will not be too many. These two pieces of information make the men of swords and swords slightly relieved-but this information does not help their plight.
Because it is impossible for them to go into the water to fight the enemy with short knives!
The water is too turbid, and with the Odachi and Taidao to pay for the eyesight, it is basically impossible to catch the trace of the enemy's dagger in the water.It is possible for Dato, Wakizasa, and Short Sword to Fusangshen to fight, but the enemy Short Sword only needs to flick its tail and wait for an opportunity to capsize the ship, but it is difficult for them to attack with a knife while swimming.Although it is confirmed that the number of enemy short knives is not large, they do not know the exact number. As long as there is a fish that slips through the net, Saburo still has the risk of death, and at the same time, their swimming speed cannot be compared with the running speed...
"It's better to drive the boat slower and rejoin the main force," Candlestick Qie Guangzhong suggested, "As long as you mix with other ships, it will be very difficult to capsize this ship."
"No, as long as they let this ship collide with other ships, it will be easier to cause a 'wreck' result. Besides, there is a turning point ahead, and it is too late to slow down now." Pressed Hasebe's face was serious He said, "—I don't have time, so I can only..."
Under the gaze of his colleagues, the servant of the Oda family spat out a few words in pain.
"——Let us draw out the inspection violation."
Saburo: "Hey, so we still need to ask for foreign aid."
... Seeing Saburo taking it for granted, and not realizing that there is something wrong with the men with swords actively attracting "inspectors of non-violation", in a trance, the older Fusangshin of the Oda family remembered that after the Battle of Anegawa, Saburo's straightforward proposal——
[Can you use the non-violation envoy to fight against the time retrograde army?]
As a result, after a few years, the men with swords and swords are really going to do this!
...Oda Nobunaga's military vision is really extraordinary.
Toujian (I have an expression of seeing a ghost.jpg): Hasebe, are you serious?
Hasebe: Seriously.
Suddenly died laughing.jpg
What kind of show operation are you guys, swordsmen!
The Battle of Anegawa is ahead.Saburo's words appeared at the end of Chapter 52.
Saito Dosan is also a time traveler in the comics.
Rest assured, sword men are well thought out x
