, The fastest update of the latest chapters of Edo Traveler!

The on-site exercise was about to end, but when Murata Qingfeng had an accident, some confusion inevitably occurred, but fortunately, nothing major happened. On the one hand, Maori King announced the end of the exercise, and on the other hand, he immediately arranged for people to go and treat Qingfeng Murata.

Chuemon had heard Yoshida Toujiro say about this before. If he is not mistaken, the old man is sixty-two years old. In this era, everything is normal.

This is Hagi's own internal affairs, and Chungemon doesn't know Murata Kiyukaze, so he doesn't care about it. What we care more about is the Western-style guns demonstrated in the stadium and so many participating soldiers. If the Maori family were still the big name of 1.2 million shi at the time, 34,000 people were just waiting, and the current Maori is only 370,000 shi, it can actually mobilize such a military force, the effect of Murata Qingfeng’s reform is not small. .

Looking at the soldiers passing by, most of them were carrying old-style matchlock guns, and some were armed with knives and spears. We did not witness the entire exercise. We don’t know whether the specific exercise was confrontation or unilateral formation. What. However, looking at a large number of soldiers still using old-style weapons, it shows that Hagi's strength has not yet made a qualitative leap.

However, there is one thing to say that Chuemon still saw hundreds of soldiers carrying Gobes firearms without bayonet on their backs. As a front-loaded musket that is not behind the times, Taiying only took him last year to complete the cleanup. .

The shogunate just asked Akho Takashima to practice western-style guns on Tokumaruhara. The number of participants in the exercise was only more than 20 people, Akho Takashima and his disciples, but Hagi had hundreds of equipped Gobes. The disparity between the firearms' infantry didn't really open up in a day or two.

As for the artillery in the arena, the distance is a little bit far away, it is not very real, and he did not see his live ammunition exercises, and I don’t know the specific range parameters. It's not easy to make a clear judgment, but it is obvious that what can be pulled by Murata Qingfeng for the exercise is definitely not something that was two or three hundred years ago.

By the way, the instructor for the casting and use of spear and artillery that Murata Qingfeng invited was Kiyotaro Yamamoto, the disciple of Akho Takashima. Hey, I didn't say it, it's our old brother's apprentice again, I really know Yibao, and I'll go out well.

Not to mention him, it's important to go to Toujiro Yoshida first, otherwise it will be dark, and if you don't even have a place to live, it will be funny. Although it is possible to live in a house, it is always inconvenient.

As the home of the Mori family for more than two centuries, Hagi is also a large town with a population of more than 100,000. It relies on the relatively prosperous shipping of the Sea of ​​Japan and the consumption of a large number of non-production samurai. Hagi is in Nagato. It is also the place of first-class prosperity.

There are thousands of samurai under the castle, and it is not easy to find someone, but Toujiro Yoshida told us about the place. Moreover, the Yoshida clan still has a bit of status in the Maori family, because the Yoshida clan learned the art of warfare by the early scholar of the shogunate, Yamaga Suyuki, and served as a master and taught his disciples in the Maori family.

Even though the salary is not a few stones (twenty-six stones), but most of the Mori families are poor ghosts and samurai under one hundred ten stones, so I found a samurai under Hagi and asked for a while, and I found the home of Toujiro Yoshida.

Knocked on the door, Torajiro, who was changing clothes under the eaves, didn't even wear shoes. He didn't even care about the cold on the ground, so he rushed over, hugged Chuemon, and almost shouted that Brother Chuemon was finally here. .

The servants at home also saw Torajiro Yoshida's affection for an outsider for the first time, and they came forward to see him. Chuemon also admired Toujiro Yoshida, and greeted him again and again.

By the way, without any accident, Torajiro Yoshida, the guardian of Mori Kei, returned to the domain, and under the auspices of his father Sugi Yuri, he held the ceremony of Yuanfu, and officially named Yoshida Jukata with the name Yoshihide. Shoin, the well-known Yoshida Shoin in Japanese history has finally been born.

(There is an advance here, if you mind to scold me, I originally had to get up after Kyushu paid a visit to Sakuma Xiangshan, but the original plane Sakuma Xiangshan has already seen it in advance.

From now on, our little brother Yoshida will be considered an adult, and they will all comb their heads. I don't know what he thought when he shaved his head. Now there is no need for a samurai to shave such an ugly head. For example, Chugoemon and Iron Brothers Sukeruchi are all beautiful hair. Except for a small bun, it has almost nothing to do with Japanese hairstyles. NS.

"This is a good friend I met in Edo, Edogawa Chuemon." Yoshida Shoin pulled Chuemon and everyone in his house to salute.

Yoshida's adoptive father, Yoshida Daisuke, passed away a long time ago, so Shoin Yoshida now lives with his father-in-law Sugi. Otherwise, how would you let a five-year-old child without a father live.

His father Sugi Yuri, uncle Tamaki Fuminoki, and elder brother Sugi Shigesuke all came forward to nod and salute, and the female relatives at home also came up in turn. As for why father and son brothers are not all Miao characters, I won't explain more.

Obviously, they had also heard of Chuemon's name early in the morning. More importantly, along with the return of Maori Kei from Edo, those artistic works of Edo, such as the storybook of the famous Edogawa, and the artists who performed the Edogawa Detective Collection, also returned to the Hagi clan. He also spread his name in the Hagi Clan Clan Chuemon for two months.

Now seeing the real person, I didn't expect that it was just a young man four or five years older than Yoshida Shoin, which really surprised them. They thought that Chuemon was a 30-year-old official with a grim face and no smile. At first glance, it turned out to be a gentle-speaking young man next door, and he also sighed.

If there are friends coming from afar, it is natural to call for wine and food to be served, and a group of people sit down firmly. Chuemon knew that their house was not a wealthy family, so Hachiro Amano asked him to take out the Kyoto silk he had purchased from Kyoto as a meeting gift.

Those Beijing silks are all fashionable designs. One piece of silk requires two or three golds. It must be enough for the Yoshida family to entertain themselves several times~lightnovelpub.net~ Of course, it is for Yoshida Shoin in name. As for how he uses it, let’s Don't worry about it.

Yoshida Shoin and Chuemon had a sincere friendship, and he didn't care about money or not. He used to live and eat at Chuemon's house, and the two had never cared about this. Of course, this is also related to his young age and he didn't care about money. Then his family said that the gift from Chuemon was too expensive and could not be accepted.

So Tademon said with a smile that Shoin Yoshida would marry a wife and have children since Yuanfu, how could he not prepare a new Wufu for his new wife. When I said this, the whole house laughed, and the point was reached. Only then did Yoshida Shoin's mother cherish and accept Kyojin, and she really needs to prepare a set of decent clothes for her future daughter-in-law.

Pushing the cups and changing the cups, the crowd ate and drank, naturally talking about today's exercise during the day. Speaking of this, Chungemon had time to ask about Murata Kiyokaze. Murata Qingfeng fainted on the spot on the martial arts stage. What happened?

Speaking of this, Yoshida Shoin was a little frown. According to the doctor’s judgment, Murata Kiyokaze was too old, and he was blowing cold wind outside. In addition, he was excited about conducting exercises. As a result, the internal and external excitement caused a stroke. It's a stroke.

"Murata Oribe-sama is upset, the feudal clan is troublesome..."
