The Space Fortress That Came to the Sengoku Era

Episode XXXIII: The Fire Rope Gun and Soap

side/Kuyuan Ichima

On this day, he came to the outskirts of Ancient Castle, along with Shin-soo and Shin-naga-san, as well as several nearby classes.

"Wow. Is this the Nanban cannon?"

I've already talked to Nobunaga and Shinsu about preparing cannons and firearms of different calibers, so I decided to let them actually shoot me.

I made it a suburb of Ancient Castle because I was a little concerned about people's eyes on the outskirts of Tsushima, but I had a hard time just bringing it here.

Shinsu and the people Shinsu brought in are paying attention to be blinded by the biggest cannon.

Well, in this day and age, it's like a strategic weapon.

"I'll tell you in advance, the hit rate is not good. Think of the extent to which you can hit someone if you release them into a large army of enemies like the castle."

The hitting rate of a fireline gun in this era isn't really good, is it?

All of our volcano guns and balls are uniformly shaped and sized, so they're better than other volcano guns, though. But naturally inferior to a rifled gun.

"I know. Shoot me first."

I gave my advice because I would have trouble expecting too much, but Shin-soo knows that just as well.

The target is a small hill. It seems to be a slope. Start with the cannon first.

The gunner is Mr. Benefit and shoots the cannon at the target while using a few people. When the ball of iron was shot out of the cannon with a tremendous roar, it hit the targeted slope with a brilliant shot.

Sometimes the target is big, but the angle of the shell and the amount of gunpowder, Ichigo learned and improved well in a short time.

"Oh!"

"Oh, my God."

"Uh-huh. Try shooting the next thing."

The power didn't have to be explained, it seemed to be a shock to those who had seen it for the first time. Shin-soo looks satisfied, but lets firearms and wooden cannons of different calibers be shot from next to next.

It's great to assume a real battle by targeting old armor or something along the way.

By the time the smell of gunpowder can enter the surrounding area, a series of test shots will be finished and a break will be made.

"There are drawbacks, but don't change the fight depending on how you use it"

The results of the test shots are satisfactory to everyone. It's a cutting-edge weapon in this day and age.

"The problem would be the nitrous stone value. I have a cheap delivery, but if the value of the cannon spreads, I wonder if it will ever go up or down."

"Don't cost me money. Is that why you focus most on commerce?

"Yes, as you guessed. In the future, war will turn into money, not rice."

However, while looking at the amount of gunpowder used in cannons and firearms, Mr. Jingxiu gave a slightly reluctant look as to whether he had actually calculated in his mind the cost if he had used it in the war.

Seems that both Mr. Jing-su and Mr. Shin-soo already understand, but the battle ahead will increasingly be a time for economic power to say things.

Kichinai is already, in part, a time when economic power dictates war over the authority of the Shogun. Perhaps you understand something about Sandao Changqing.

At the moment, of course, the authority of the Shogun is still strong.

"Do you fight with money and make money from war?

"No. Winning or losing a battle is ideally decided before you play a battle. The battle is about letting people know which one is the winner."

"Heh heh. You're still a big law spiral"

I was anxious for you to understand that this is the time to bet everything on winning or losing a temporary battle, but Shinsu seems to understand the approximate concept.

It's war, so you might lose. But no matter how much you win, the overall difference in national power against the backdrop of economic power is not so easy to fill, is it?

The basic approach will be that there is something that leads to Shinsu's way of dominating Tsushima and Hota.

"When will Imagawa and Tatsuji notice?"

"You can't imitate it early when you realize it. Getting things and technology from abroad is not easy. By the time Imagawa and Saito imitated it, this one was further apart."

"If so, do you expect to save strength for the moment"

"I will deliver the hundred pieces of the rope gun and the nitrous stones that arrived the other day in advance. If it's a skirmish, you can use it."

Still, Shinsu, at some point, you're accepting our proposal pretty much as it is.

There are also Mr. Ohashi and Mr. Jingsu, so I'm sure you have a loss account.

There are metrics and depth of nostalgia that actively incorporate the opinions of newcomers.

Maybe Shinsu herself is someone better suited to internal affairs than war. At least you're sure you don't consider war fundamental and you consider home affairs fundamental.

If you lived long enough, Shin-soo would become a heavenly man.

The show of cannons and cannons is over, and we're back at Tsushima's mansion, but the sick were here again today. You've been coming home more and more lately, haven't you?

"I'm running out of soap"

"It will arrive on the next ship. But when you think about the future, you just want to make some with Oozawa. Shall I make some bran bags and distribute them?"

There are various medicines to give out to patients, most of which are manufactured in space fortresses and transported by boat, but I even buy a little herb or herbal medicine locally.

I'm also letting patients have soaps that I've started using extensively in industrial village and ranch construction as a form of medication that's less susceptible to disease at the moment, but if we just do this, we won't have enough.

I started whaling too, so I can take the whale oil, and the soap I used with it should arrive next time.

"Is it a bran bag? It's not cheap either."

Ketty was playing with Robo, who became our new family, while consulting with Elle, who was teaching Shiqing a job about the items in the deal, etc.

Shiqing, who was inevitably listening, didn't seem to know the soap itself, but he blues his complexion when he tells him that it's a luxury product in Sakami and Kyoto capital.

In fact, I hear that the soap that is coming into Japan is liquid, but our soap is solid, so it is similar and different.

Local production and the spread of substitutes would be indispensable because there are just limits to carrying them by boat.

The bran bag is a bag of fabric filled with bran, a companion of body-friendly soap used since the peacetime.

It seems there was one in the Warring States period, but since cloth itself is expensive stuff in the first place, it can't be popularized in poor rural areas or anything.

I've come to this day and age to find out, but it's enough to make clothes out of paper and wear them.

There can't be any bran bags in the countryside that I have trouble eating.

"We need to increase rice production and make it less susceptible to disease. And for that, I'd like to spread the bran bag a lot faster."

"Production of oil is going to plant some crops on a trial basis starting next year. As for bran bags, they struggle to collect rice bran themselves, so they are so full that they make a few."

Shiqing, who still can't keep up with us, can't produce soap or mass production of bran bags in Eloiku Taiwanese right away.

In this day and age, the oil under the soap is expensive. Besides, I noticed when they say it, do bran also struggle to collect quantities in this age when precision rice is not common?

You want me to gather some mucrozi nuts and make some soap? But it won't be easy to spread.

I'll try planting vegetable flowers and cotton that have been genetically modified to remove toxic substances from next year on a trial basis, but it'll take a few years to spread, won't it?

Of course vegetable flowers can be taken from cotton, so even toxic substances can be removed for edible use.

Will we end up carrying most of our supplies by boat for the time being?

Well, as things stand, the Oda family doesn't have that much territory, and we'll be behind them except for the direct jurisdiction, so we'll make it.

Yeah. For the record, the robot has a collar with a transmitter on it.

You'll miss one, so I just want another dog of my age who's a candidate for daughter-in-law.
