Chapter 1321: Don't treat the village chief as an improper cadre
"Made in Hanyang?"
These three words really confused the people in the small courtyard, looking at each other at a loss!
Even if they were standing in the Warring States Period, they would still think that other people are monsters, so their expressions and body conditions are no different from sculptures.
This means that in addition to their group, there are other people who also came to Japan during the Warring States Period!
To explain simply, this person is extremely mysterious. For Liu Shiba and his party, they are still in a situation where their enemies and friends are unknown!
What's more serious is that Liu Shiba's team is in the light, but that guy is in the dark, as if he is everywhere...
Otherwise, how could there be garrison generals from more than a dozen cities under various famous names, and at the same time lead troops to encircle and suppress the elite ninja secretly sent by the Yagyu family?
Although everything is just speculation, Liu Shiba believes that there is definitely a reason...
Otherwise, where did this advanced rifle, which was obviously a crude imitation of Hanyang's, come from?
Speaking of the advanced nature of this gun, it is because none of the tens of thousands of people in the five small regiments led by Mori Katsunaga could have a gun that was more advanced than this Hanyang-made rifle.
To put it simply, the front-loaded flintlock musket made in Hanyang was more than fifty years advanced. To exaggerate, it could even reach the level of a hundred years...
……………………
But now, Liu Shiba frowned deeply. What he was worried about was not the issue of whether the weapons were advanced or not...
Thinking of the key point, Liu Shiba's eyes lit up and he turned to look at the old driver who was glaring at him. The two of them seemed to have a clear understanding of each other. After secretly looking at each other, they nodded and exchanged an extremely obscure look.
"call!"
Liu Shiba breathed out, turned to look at Yagyu Munwang, and asked seriously:
"Zongwang! You forgot to tell me, how many ashigaru have you seen attacking you with these Hanyang-made iron cannons?"
"Nani? How many people..."
When Yagyu Munwang heard this, a rare trace of fear and fear appeared in his eyes...
When Liu Shiba and others saw this, their hearts tightened...
But the more anxious you are, the more anxious you become!
This guy frowned for a few minutes, then muttered something very fast, and he hummed a few words very fast, but he couldn't understand what the nonsense bird songs were...
"make!"
Liu Shiba gritted his teeth and cursed, turned around and asked:
"What did Yagyu Somuji say just now? Did any of you understand..."
"Eighteen, you didn't even understand it when you were standing there recently. We are a few steps further than you, and we don't even understand..."
Aunt Cuihua snorted and then flashed Liu Shiba's charming big eyes. Liu Shiba was so frightened that he quickly blinked and glanced at Li Ergou.
The old woman Cuihua, like Mrs. Huan, is getting younger and younger, and is about to become a boneless spirit...
The little white eyes are so imaginative...
In the blink of an eye, I haven’t eaten meat for several years. It’s miserable...
Suddenly, his mind wandered to the left side of his brain, and Liu Shiba unexpectedly came up with a scene that was extremely inappropriate for the time and even more inappropriate for children...
"Tsk tsk! No wonder Uncle Ergou is getting older and older, is he about to be fucked by an adult?"
Unconsciously, Liu Shiba also muttered, and everyone looked at him at the same time, their ears perked up...
"ah?"
Liu Shiba was suddenly surprised to be surrounded by eyes, and realized that something was wrong, very wrong!
"Eighteen? What did you just say? I thought I heard you calling me?"
Li Ergou stared at Liu Shiba and asked very directly, with clear eyes and an innocent tone.
"Nothing, nothing! I'm used to talking to myself, right..."
Liu Shiba's eyes flashed suddenly, he hurriedly turned his head to look at Yagyu Sheng Munwang, gritted his teeth and said:
"Lord Zong Wang, you also escaped from other cities by luck, right?
Haven't you seen how many ashigaru there are in the city pointing such spears at you?"
"About three to four hundred, right? There are four square formations, each with a hundred people, stationed at the four entrances and exits of the city.
At that time, the sky was full of crackling and swishing noises, and bullets rained down like rain.
My subordinate is very lucky, and his daily hard training has finally made his body more flexible, otherwise he would almost not be able to come back..."
Yagyu Munewang frowned and thought, raised his head and said a rough number at the same time.
This number doesn’t sound like much at first glance, right?
But when he crawled deeper with his fingers, Liu Shiba and his party were so shocked that they were speechless for a long time.
How is this possible?
Many famous names in the Warring States Period are equivalent to the provincial-level Qianbu of China in another time and space, but their scale is not much larger than that of a village, at most one township, right?
Provincial-level bureaus with the size of township chiefs account for more than 80% of the entire territory of Japan.
"Mom, you're a scoundrel. I wonder how many great names there are in the dwarf country, which is only a small country today?"
Li Ergou scratched the back of his head and said confusedly.
Liu Shiba did a rough calculation, but he didn't have an accurate figure. He shook his head to express confusion.
And the person who answered this question turned out to be Mrs. Huan...
"Right now, it is the Azuchi Momoyama era when Oda is in power. The whole territory of Japan has daimyo who dare to call it a country, and there are almost eighty-eight princes who can be counted..."
Mrs. Huan spoke softly with her lips and teeth, and responded slowly.
"What! What a big place, there are eighty-eight forces called countries?"
Everyone looked at each other and made an uproar...
If according to Yagyu Munebo's description, each main city of the country has 200 to 400 iron cannon ashigaru, how many Hanyangs must be built?
But the strange thing is that when we fought against Tokugawa Ieyasu three months ago, we didn't see a very powerful gun appear!
"Don't worry! Do you still expect all the eighty-eight countries to unite to deal with us?
Stop dreaming! They don’t even enjoy beating themselves up, so who will take care of this place in Noda Castle?”
Mrs. Huan chuckled and explained another reason, and everyone nodded.
Liu Shiba shook his head and said:
"I used to be a well-read person, but I feel unreliable. As far as I know, these ministerial-level village cadres have a huge number of troops..."
"Anointment sellers! I'm scared to death. I wonder how many there are?"
Solanta looked indifferent and chuckled teasingly.
Liu Shiba shook his head and said solemnly:
"The exact number is unknown, but history books record that in the later period of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's era, it was only the regular army that crossed the sea to attack Goryeo...
There are about two hundred thousand people! And this only dispatches about one-third of the troops in Japan.
At that time, only the legions of the direct daimyo under the control of Toyotomi Hideyoshi were on the expedition to Goryeo.
However, the Warring States daimyo far away in the Western Kingdom and the many feudal lords who had separated themselves from Kanto, as well as the daimyo in the central region, basically did not move at all.
For example, Tokugawa Ieyasu, didn't he not participate in Bunroku Keicho's battle, thus preserving precious military strength, and finally had the strength to defeat the Toyotomi family..."
"Grrrr!"
Mrs. Huan covered her mouth and smiled, staring straight at Liu Shiba and said:
"I didn't realize that you know a lot..."
"Um!"
Liu Shiba had a straight face and stared at the ground without looking at Mrs. Huan.
"Liu Shiba? I've been talking for a long time in vain and you didn't even look at me?
Let me tell you, don’t treat the village chief as a cadre, otherwise..."
Liu Shiba didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but his eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he secretly said with joy:
"The village chief is a civil servant, even the younger ones are officials, so why not treat the village chief as a cadre? Well, this is a loophole..."
Mrs. Huan is a woman after all. Regardless of whether she is a human, a ghost, or some kind of alien female creature, she is still a woman after all!
She thought about it for a long time, how dare Liu Shiba not even look at himself?
Not to mention, this guy was staring at a toad that jumped on his instep and yawned, with a smile on his face!
Mrs. Huan can't hold on to her shame anymore...
"Hmph!"
Then, a cold laugh came from Mrs. Huan's mouth, and then a slender and strong hoof stepped straight over...
