"What to do!" Yu Qiuping was startled, and his body regained the ability to move.
"Are we going to sit here and watch another good friend die?"
He crawled forward a few steps on his hands and knees, holding the knife that had slipped out of his hand again.
The strong man took advantage of Taehyung Asahina's fall, took a big step forward, and slashed at Taehyung Asahina's waist with his knife. Taehyung Asahina rolled on the spot, barely dodging the blow, but hit a person on the ground.
The stone could no longer move. The strong man followed and wanted to chop it again.
"Can't hesitate any longer!" Yu Qiuping's eyes turned red and he stood up with great effort.
"My parents raised me like this, did they just watch me become a coward and watch my companions die?"
"If you don't have the ability to survive, don't you even have the courage to die?"
At that moment, the body no longer trembled. The emotions of grief, anger and self-blame that ignited in my heart instantly diluted the fear of death. This is the so-called passion of young people!
The strong man who was about to swing his sword felt a gust of wind beside him. He turned sideways in a hurry and saw that the young man who was so frightened that he couldn't even hold the sword was suddenly bumping into him. The strong man didn't have time to react and slashed with his sword.
While blocking, Yu Qiuping knocked him to the ground with a knife, and the two men's knives also fell to the side. Yu Qiuping struggled with the strong man, and the strong man was wearing a set of quite good quality equipment (that is,
The armor) hurt Yu Qiuping. Yu Qiuping's quality of life has been higher than that of these ancient Japanese people since he was a child. Whether it is protein, vitamins or mineral intake, it far exceeds theirs. His muscle development is naturally better than theirs.
Good. Although he didn’t exercise as much as them, so his strength may not be as strong as this strong man for the time being. But Yu Qiuping was still able to maintain balance in the scuffle.
"Good boy, not bad!" Asahina Taehyung also stood up suddenly, picked up the katana beside him, and rushed towards the strong man. Seeing that the situation was not good, the strong man pushed Yu Qiuping away and rolled around on the spot.
, touched the knife he had left on the ground, and repositioned himself.
Just when Asahina Taehiro wanted to fight again, several ashigaru from the Oda family suddenly came running towards the village.
"Sir! Come quickly! Your Excellency is here!" The leading ashigaru shouted loudly, waving to the people behind to follow. Then dozens of Oda family ashigaru with two kinds of flags came in.
Seeing that he was about to be surrounded, Asahina Taehyung suddenly threw the knife at the strong man. While the strong man was hiding from the knife, he pulled Yu Qiuping onto his horse, clamped the horse's belly and headed south of the exit.
Escape.
"But! Kangzhuang's body! It's still there!" Yu Qiuping tried his best to turn around and look at the hut. But sitting on the horse, he was getting further and further away from the village. His tears drifted away in the wind and never appeared again.
I can't replace the little attendant who can speak Chinese.
"Takake Castle is in the east. We need to go out from the west village entrance, run around the south, and then run east again," Asahina Taehyung whispered while speeding up his horse. "They don't have horses, so they can't keep up."
.”
Before he finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves could be heard behind him. The strong man rode the horse left by Yu Qiuping at the farmer's house and chased after him.
"Damn, what a bad luck!" Asahina Taehyung spat. The strong man behind him was also quite good at equestrian skills. In addition, Yu Qiuping and Asahina Taehyung were riding on the same horse, so they couldn't get up fast at all. The distance between the two sides continued.
Zoomed out. Only fifty meters were left.
"No, throw away everything you can!" Yuqiupei said urgently. After Asahina Taiheng heard this, he controlled the reins with one hand and took off his samurai uniform's feathery ori in three strokes with the other hand.
He threw it to the roadside casually, took off the inner lining and handed it to Yu Qiuping, and continued running shirtless. Yu Qiuping also quickly took off his shirt, carefully put away the red leaf pendant, and then
Seeing the right moment, he tied the two pieces of clothing together and threw them towards the strong man behind him. The clothes flew with the wind, and the strong man who was galloping was caught off guard and the horse's head was wrapped in the clothes, and the horse stood upright.
, almost knocking the strong man off his horse. When the strong man adjusted his posture and chased again, the distance between the two sides had increased to more than 200 meters.
At this moment, Asahina Yasuhiro was about to cross the east end of the village. Unfortunately, dozens of Oda family Ashigaru who were outflanking the village had already arrived on the road ahead, and it was already too late to make a detour.
At the critical moment, a dozen followers who were left behind by Asahina Taihiro rode out of the village on horseback. Dozens of Oda Ashigaru did not expect the arrival of more than a dozen cavalry, and they scattered in a hurry after being hacked to death.
.After Asahina Taehyung joined the others, the strong man did not pursue him anymore, but turned around and left.
Suddenly, he accidentally glanced at the Jinhaori dropped by Asahina Taiheng scattered on the roadside, and a corner of the map was exposed inside.
"Mom, why is tonight's dinner so salty?" Yu Qiuping complained as he put a piece of eggplant into his mouth, "I don't even have enough rice."
"Is it salty? Which ones are salty?" Mom also ate a piece in disbelief. "I think it's too bland. If you don't believe me, let your dad try it."
Yu Qiuping looked at his father, who also picked up a piece of eggplant, frowned and chewed it, as if he was trying to detect the salty taste, but failed. He shook his head, "No, it's not salty at all. You
Why does it feel salty?"
Suddenly, the scene changed, and everything in front of him began to shake violently. When Yu Qiuping could see the things in front of him clearly again, the person sitting in front of him was Kondo Yasuzo.
"Ping Jun, eat quickly, we have to settle accounts later." He pushed the plate with radish in front of Yu Qiuping. Yu Qiuping took a piece and put it in his mouth, and quickly took a mouthful of rice, "Why is it so salty?
Ah!" Yu Qiuping muttered after swallowing the food in his mouth.
"Is it salty? Not salty? I was just about to say why this pickled radish isn't salty at all?" Kondo Yasuso smiled in surprise, "What's wrong with you, Taira-kun? Can't you taste it?"
"
Yu Qiuping touched his mouth with his hand in confusion, only to feel that the corner of his mouth was moist. He touched it up his cheek, and there was a wet tear trail. The tears flowed down his face and into his mouth.
It turned out to be tears, they were too salty.
After waking up from his dream, Yu Qiuping looked blankly at the ceiling of the room. The sunlight outside the cabin had already shone through the curtains.
Have I lost my original life again?
Mom and Dad will never be seen again. The easy-going Kondo Yasuso will never be seen again. I couldn't even help him bring back his body.
June 25, the first year of Yonglu (1558). At this moment, Yu Qiuping was lying on an Anzhai ship belonging to the Imagawa family navy. After he escaped from Tongzhajian, Yu Qiuping, who was frightened and overworked, immediately fell ill.
Asahina Taehiro and others had no choice but to bring a carriage and returned to Okazaki Castle with Ue Qiupei. It was unrealistic to ride back on horseback, and the bumpy carriage was not conducive to Ue Qiupei's recovery. Finally, Asahina Taihiro decided
They boarded part of the Imagawa family's fleet led by Yasuki Itami, who had just returned from Ise Bay, and returned to Sunfu by sea. After getting in touch with Yasuki Itami, the group boarded the ship from Nishio Port.
In Japan, there are still certain differences between ships and traditional Chinese ships. Japanese ships, from large to small, are divided into three categories: Anzaku ships, Kanbune ships, and small morning ships. Anzha ships are the main force in the navy, and the entire hull is
It is wrapped in square wooden boards, like a large box floating on the sea. There are shooting holes and paddles on the wooden boards, and soldiers attack inside. And above the wooden boards, there is another sturdy deck house as a lookout and command.
The center is also equipped with an auxiliary sail. Generally, a medium-sized house ship can carry 100 sailors and 50 combatants. If it is used for transportation, the full load can reach about 200 people. The width of the ship is about 10 meters.
The length is only 50 meters. Compared with the giant battleships of the Ming Dynasty and the West, it feels like an elephant meeting a puppy.
The smaller Kanbune is the backbone of the navy. Its appearance and function are very similar to those of Anzhabune, except that it does not have a deck house above the wooden planks. It can generally carry 40 sailors and 20 combatants. The length is generally about 20 meters.
The width is reduced to 4 meters.
The smallest morning boat has almost no defensive equipment on board. There is only a small cabin on the deck. The length of the hull is less than 10 meters and the width is only 3 meters. It can only accommodate less than 30 people on it, but it is very flexible.
Gao is a small ship used for reconnaissance, assault, arson or landing.
Today, the Kawa family navy, as the strongest navy in the Tokaido, is led by the ship leader Itami Yasunao, who is Itami Yasunao's father, and has a strong strength of 200 ships. Among them, there are 9 Anzha ships, including
There are 21 ships and 50 small morning ships. They are unrivaled in the entire Tokaido waters. This time, 17-year-old Itami Yasukichi is carrying out 28 ships on a channel cruise mission to combat the Kuuki active in Ise Bay.
Pirates.
"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on Yu Qiuping's door.
Yu Qiuping sat up, touched his face, straightened his hair, and said, "Please come in."
The person who pushed open the door was Itami Yasukichi. His skin has been tanned since he grew up on the sea. He is dressed in a blue samurai uniform, which matches the ocean very well.
Asahina Taehiro disembarked from the ship when it passed the Toe River and docked, preparing to meet the anger of Fujita Nakaharu who was chasing him all the way. At the same time, he also planned to go to Hamamatsu Castle to apologize to the Kondo family in person. After all, it was his trip that caused the death.
Kondo Yasuzao and Yu Qiupei have repeatedly expressed the hope that he would personally apologize for his cowardice, but Asahina Taehyung took all the responsibilities, and Yu Qiupei, who was in poor health, was kept on the ship. Since then, he has been
It is Yasukyo Itami who is taking care of Yu Qiuping.
