Ah Persimmon looked at the young people of the Kuroda family for a while, but until the end, the Kuroda family, which has almost the most complete lineup of young talents, is placed in the game of shame, and can even unify the world's retainers, and there is no character who can enter her eyes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Among the relatively young samurai of the entire Kuroda family, only the core figures of the Kuroda family themselves, as well as Inoue Nobo, Akashi Quanden, and Dawn Kuniryo are not here.

"Father-in-law, this time you came to visit Ali and them, and to be honest, I am grateful. They live in Kuroda Castle, and they actually miss you two elders very much, by the way, there are two of them, Uemon and Akiki. ”

"We also miss the two children Ah Li and Ah Guang, as well as our two little grandchildren! And isn't it because Ali is going to have a baby again, so we also want to come over and see the birth of this child as soon as possible. Kushihashi Idin said.

"That's really thanks to my father-in-law." Kuroda said.

"I don't dare to be in the bottom."

"By the way, father-in-law, I think Uemon should have been subdued by now!" Kuroda said with a smile、

"At the time of the New Year, it was already in Yuanfu, and it was called Chuiqiao Lize." Kushihashi replied.

"It's the same as the name of our third child (Kuroda Toshinori)!" Kuroda said.

"Hey! It's just that the status of the third young lord is noble, and the right emon can't be compared. ”

"In that case, Uemon can you tell me what you're good at?"

"Hey! In the next ......, "Toshinori Kushihashi had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by Kuroda Vocational High School.

"Uemon, don't call it that, it's not a public place here, just call me brother-in-law."

"Hey!"

"But on formal occasions, you still have to call the lord, hahaha!!"

After such a break from Kuroda Vocational High School, Kushihashi Toshinori, who was already a little nervous, completely relaxed, nodded and said very respectfully: "Lord, I have been learning spearmanship with my brother since I was a child, so my martial arts are a little successful, and I am ......" Speaking of this, Kushihashi Toshino hesitated, and also looked at his father.

"Don't hesitate to say anything right."

"Hey!" Kushihashi Toshinori still glanced at his father before he said: "My lord, I am actually very interested in iron artillery, and the last time I came, I secretly asked Lord Suzuki Shigenari for iron cannon skills. ”

"What......" Kushihashi Iding heard his words and looked at his son with some anger.

"Father-in-law, please don't be angry, I don't think there's a problem with his choice." Kuroda said.

"It's just that this cannon is not a weapon that a samurai should use! Basilica!! Kushihashi Yiding said a little depressed.

As a traditional samurai, Kushihashi Icho followed the spirit of bushido, and felt that a samurai was at most skilled in bows and horses, and knew etiquette and tea ceremony.

Therefore, he could not accept such a weapon as an iron cannon, and even more disapproved of his son using such a weapon. Now that his second son has made it clear that he likes to use iron cannons, a weapon that does not conform to the spirit of the samurai, he is still very angry.

"Father-in-law, you must also think that the iron cannon is not in line with the spirit of bushido!" Kuroda asked.

"Of course, isn't it?" Kushihashi Idin asked.

"Of course not, father-in-law, do you know, the world we live in is always changing, and iron cannons will definitely become the mainstream of war in the future."

"What does the hall mean is that this weapon will be used in large numbers in the future?" Kushihashi Yiding said in disbelief, although he didn't accept it, he still knew the power of this weapon.

"Yes, and it will be an inevitable trend for the whole world."

"The whole world is it......"

"Yes, the whole world, I am not only talking about our Wa Kingdom, but also the vast world outside the Wa Kingdom, in the next hundred years, it is estimated that this powerful weapon will be fully popular, replacing the old way of fighting on horseback, which may be an irreversible situation."

"This ...... It's a bit ......."

"Father-in-law, do you know about the fierce general of the Miyoshi family, Shichijo Kanenaka?"

"I know this person, the invincible warrior of the four countries."

"He died in a volley of iron cannons from his family, not by his samurai."

"This ......"

"And like the Southern Barbarian countries, they have basically begun to install firearms on a large scale, that is, iron cannons and artillery. And the Otomo family in Kyushu already has 3,000 iron cannons according to the information obtained by the family, which is the basis for the Otomo family to be able to suppress Kitakyushu, right to the father-in-law...... "At this time, Kuroda Vocational High School suddenly looked at Kushihashi Iding.

"Hey!"

"I don't know if my father-in-law knows about the cannons on the large Ming ship of my family's navy."

"I've seen this once."

"This cannon Otomo family also has it, and it seems that it has obtained more than one from the Nanbanians. In addition, the Shimazu family in southern Kyushu, which the family is about to face, also has more than 500 iron cannons, and the Oda family in is also the same, so in fact, this weapon is already in use in large quantities. Moreover, there are not a few samurai who use iron cannons, such as Lord Akechi Mitsuhide, a close minister of the shogun, who is a master of iron cannons. ”

"I see, but if it's such a dangerous salvo of iron cannons, he ...... Uemon

"Father-in-law, to be honest, there are no eyes on the battlefield, as long as you go to the battlefield, you will face a situation where you will die and I will die, whether it is with knives and guns, or iron cannons, you can't avoid deaths and injuries, all I can do is to try to ensure the safety of the right gate." Kuroda said.

"That's true."

"For the future Kyushu expedition, our Kuroda family may expand the team of firearms on a large scale in the future, if at this time Uemon chooses to be a samurai who uses iron cannons, he will become one of the veterans of this team, which is definitely very promising, but it is impossible to directly occupy a high position at the beginning. And as a samurai who uses artillery, it is relatively safer in terms of normality, because they will be far away from the core of the battlefield, and as the treasure class of the family, they will basically not play in the next melee combat, I believe it would be very good if Uemon made such a choice. And I'm sure my father-in-law and mother-in-law wouldn't want Uemon to be damaged on the battlefield. ”

"Hey! Indeed it is. Kushihashi said with his head down.
