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

Don't worry, Chuemon isn't going to be heartbroken for an uncle. I’m just really curious, how did Takashima Qiuhan, a person who had just been released, suddenly hooked up with 367,000 Ishida name Nabeshima straight. I used to look at Takashima Qiuhan’s appearance, and he tried to avoid communicating with strangers. Temperament.

Akho Takashima, who got off the boat, saw Chuemon at a glance. It was mainly among a group of 1.6 meters or even 1.5 meters. The height of Chuemon was more than 1.72 meters. Even Hachiro Amano, who is superb in swordsmanship, is half a head short of Tademon, not to mention the little old man Takashima Akho.

Of course, Akho Takashima was very happy to be able to get out of the shogunate prison alive and see his deceased. And he knew very well that he could be released by the shogunate mainly because Chuemon helped him plead with Matsudaira.

If there is no Chuyouemon, he, a great offender who "haves a soldier and intends to rebel", would be inevitably a beheading punishment. Even if you can finally get rid of sin, you will have to endure several years in prison.

"Cadaemon, Chuemon..." The old man confessed his guilt to Nabeshima, walked two steps quickly, and hurried to meet Chuemon.

"Everything is okay?" When I met my old friend in his hometown, he was always excited. Tademon looked up and down at Takashima Qiuho. The old man looked good, and he was indeed not abused in prison.

"Dr. Shiro is so favored, I don't know Kisuke?" Naojima Naomasa, who was standing next to him, saw that Akho Takashima and Chuemon were so close, he was curious, and walked over.

"At the Shimoedogawa Chuemon Gate, pay homage to Hou Saga."

"You are the "Wisdom Edo River"?" Obviously, Naomasa Naomasa went to Edo on this trip, and he also heard of Chuemon's name.

"It's not here."

"Hahahahahaha, it's no wonder that Dr. Shiro is kind to you, come and come, and return to the city together." Nabeshima straightly pulled up two people and entered the ranks of daimyo.

Come on, everyone's dignified Saga Hou has personally invited him, and we can't shamelessly, so we have to go along with him. Just taking advantage of the free time on the road, learn about the current situation of Takashima Qiuho.

The first is the release. Thanks to Matsudaira's letter, Ieki Tokugawa took a little care of Takashima Akho's case. I remembered that this was the samurai who Mizuno Tadakuni invited to Edo to demonstrate Western-style guns. Implicated in the Mizuno Tadabang case, innocent imprisoned. Takashima Akho has foreign guns and artillery purely to study these things, how could it be for rebellion?

So Tokugawa Ieki, who was more tolerant, waved his hand to let him go. Of course, the punishments mentioned earlier still didn't run. After all, Akho Takashima is something that Mizuno Tadakuni's confidant cannot wash away, and Toi Toi must take care of it.

When the autumn sails of Takashima were released, the French navy attacked the port of Naha, the kingdom of Ryukyu, and news of the police around Nagasaki reached Edo. At that time, the shogunate panicked, Naomasa Nabeshima was ordered to return to Saga immediately, ready to fight.

Do you think Nabeshima is not panicking? This kid is also flustered, it's an individual who will fluster when he encounters a war. Only those little young people who have no brains will think that war is very romantic, just a game with fireworks.

So Naomasa Nabeshima immediately decided on Takashima Akho's idea. Who said Takashima Akho would cast a cannon is so famous in Japan that even the shogunate would invite him to Edo.

Since the shogunate can’t use you and you have become a ronin again, why not join the warm family of our Saga clan!

Suffering from not having a place to go, Akio Takashima readily agreed, and he also has an apprentice in Saga. Hey, as long as Japan’s now a bit famous artillery and gun technology expert is not an apprentice of Takashima Qiuhan, he is a student, not running.

His apprentice was called Fujitaro Honjima. Through his intermediary, Akio Takashima officially became an official in the Nabeshima family of Saga, and he was an official with an incredible high salary.

Knowing the action three thousand stones!

The price is so high that even Takashima Qiuhan himself did not expect it. It should be noted that even the old Longzao Temple of the Naodao family and others, there are only more than 5,000 stones, and there are even more than 2,000 stones. Give it to Sanzenishi at once, that is the old family of the Nabeshima family in Saga, who really regards Takashima Qiuho as a treasure.

Look at the treatment of Nabeshima Naomasa and the shogunate on talents. Some things can't be said to be destined, it is definitely certain and certain!

Takashima Qiuhan, who took three thousand stone salaries, just went all the way and Nabeshima straight to Saga. The two had a long conversation on the road. Takashima Qiuho's very solid knowledge of orchid studies, as well as Western guns and artillery and other military skills Understand, I was deeply impressed by Nabeshima Zhizheng. It's normal to make some sparks.

"Then Saga Hou invited you to make cannons and muskets?" Chuemon asked knowingly.

"Fujitaro said that he has been able to make Gobes firecrackers. As for the artillery, I still need my support." Takashima Akho nodded, indicating that Chuemon had a good guess.

"How big a cannon to cast?"

"24 pounds!"

Akho Takashima said this with pride. In a small Japan, he is the only one capable of casting a 24-pound cannon. Of course, a larger caliber cannon is also possible, anyway, it is for the purpose of placing it on the Nagasaki Fort.

Hearing what he said was convincing, Chuemon was also very curious, and he wanted to go to the artillery foundry of the Saga clan immediately. It just so happens that Naomasa Nabeshima is also a clerk~lightnovelpub.net~ The banquet greeted by you can be eaten at night. First, go to the casting party to see the progress of various firearms in the Saga Domain.

Just agree with me!

Chuemon, who was following along, didn't know it, and it was really shocked at first sight. The Saga clan really has the ability to independently manufacture Gobes firecrackers, and the monthly output can reach more than one hundred. At this rate, as well as the situation of his cultivating talents and expanding his workshop, in two or three years, the samurai of the Saga Domain will all eliminate the old matchlock guns and use new weapons.

"The guns of the fire guns need good iron. Is this also hand-made?" Tadaemon picked up a Gobes fire guns and looked left and right to confirm that this thing really works.

However, it stands to reason that the barrel of this flintlock gun requires considerable quality steel. With the speed of hand-made, how can it be possible to produce more than one hundred in a month? There are obviously not one hundred people here. If there is no qualified barrel, the so-called imitation Gobes firecracker is nothing more than a fire stick that can only hear a sound. After a few shots, the chamber will explode.

"Hahahaha, please come with me." Fujitaro Honjima, who led the way, was very confident.

What appeared in front of Chuemon Gate was a steel reverberatory furnace!
