The Space Fortress That Came to the Sengoku Era

Episode 74: Crossbows and Meatballs

side/Kuyuan Ichima

When I sent Saji the proposed improvements and blueprints for the ship, as well as the cotton sails, I just gave it a try and the sentence arrived.

Since cotton sails cannot be produced in the current state of the art or in the Chita Peninsula, we have no choice but to have them bought from us. I made the price cheaper, but when I asked him to buy it after the next time when it came to sails, he agreed with me comfortably.

Anyway, it's weird that it's free, so this time I decided to treat it free with a trial product, and buy compasses, sails, moving pulleys, etc. after the next time, right?

The issue of Mitsugawa was reported to Shinsu. Displaced persons coming from Matsuhei territory decided for the time being to let them work on the west bank of the Yazoo River in the Three Rivers.

First of all, they are going to be roughed up in the Battle of the Three Rivers and settled by restoring the fields they leave behind. If you can spare on top of that, you will turn people to the development of the Chita Peninsula.

The immediate goal is to rebuild and develop the West Three Rivers.

"It's a little cold today, but we'll all do our best."

And it's cold in the Warring States winter. It's fine because Nagono barely snows. Shouldn't it be more like this, a house with insulation? You're gonna want half a wrap.

Despite these cold days, training is taking place today in the garden for the hundreds of soldiers hired this year.

"I'll have a meal after Loc. They're desperate, too."

The leaders are Julia, who turned into a ghost sergeant, and Ceres, who turned into a ruthless sergeant. But I don't discriminate privately or wield violence, so I have a good reputation for wonder in this day and age.

Unlike the bad friends of the Takikawa clan and Nobunaga, they are training intensively because they weren't very well trained.

"Nevertheless, no. Take something like this again."

"This is Oyumi, a crossbow in Nanban and Ming. It used to seem to be used in Japanese books, but now you don't see it. The advantage is that you don't have to train much to shoot. The downside is that it takes a little time to get the next arrow in."

Listening to the slightly hot and bitter voices of the men heard from the garden, Nobunaga and Tsukiji Sukiko, it was the crossbow that showed Ichigo.

They had it in Japan before that, but it's obsolete and now it's a weapon for anyone who knows it.

The reasons for obsolescence are theoretical, and there must be a variety of causes.

What was once a battle between the samurai and the Brotherhood has now shifted to a total force battle that mobilized the people. Crossbows are suitable for the current situation, but there are many parts where the properties are common to artillery.

"Let's just try it"

"It's better than throwing stones. It's just naturally not cheap, and requires expertise in maintenance. Well, there are advantages to using in the rain."

Nobunaga and Kiyoshi both thought it was a weapon they could use. The problem is cost-effective, right?

In warring times when people's lives are cheap, it would not be a weapon that could be used outside the Oda family. Besides, if we improve it so that it can be used in the rain, as in the past, it will be even less important.

But deploying a few on the front line shouldn't be a bad hand at the moment. I would also like to send it to Anxiang Castle in Migawa for use.

Yeah, I'll have to tell Mr. George about the roasted ball sometime. Although I think I already know the firecracker ball itself.

"Whoa, are you meaty?

"Yeah. It's cold today. I made it. Young ladies, too."

Elle brought freshly steamed meatballs with the samurai to us as we talked warmly in the fire bowl.

I miss it. I ate it outside on a cold winter day, the warmth and deliciousness of the convenience store meat is unforgettable.

"Meatballs? You mean buns"

"Yeah. They usually eat meat in the morning, so they put meat in the contents"

Exactly. Did Nobunaga know about the buns? I don't know about the history of buns, but I guess it's coming from the continent. Shiqing and Ichigo don't seem to know, so I guess it's not common.

Hot air is coming out. Take the meat and stick it hot.

I can't wait to see the texture of the soft, plump wheat dough. The contents were familiar to the original world. But I guess it's a little more luxurious than a convenience store meatloaf.

The taste of meat and vegetables has been stained in my mouth with bite and delicacy.

I'd really like some fried tea, but I haven't even shown it to you in this day and age yet, so it's warm wheat tea instead, but it's great.

I guess he also acted like a break to the people he trained outside. I can hear the surprise so far.

"Lord Yaro. Didn't it fit your mouth?

"No, it's very tasty. Just. He wanted to feed his late parents. I'm sorry."

Meatballs, which was one of the classics of Japanese winter, also seems to be popular with Nobunaga and the others. Nobunaga is entering the second one as soon as possible.

Only Shiqing was just taking a bite and stopping, staring at the flesh with a look that seemed complicated.

Did you care a little. When Elle called out, Shiqing told me why she cheeked her second mouth so that she could taste it slowly.

"Koga was a poor land, and my father and mother lived hard. To protect ourselves from the cold of winter, we were sharing food with our families."

Old story about Mr. Tsiking talking about being pompous. It was a story that made me and Elle feel the harshness of reality again, not history.

Sometimes they couldn't even use fuel firewood or charcoal satisfactorily, and they often ate anything they could eat without food.

"Let the elderly join hands with their lords and wives because their past is unforgettable."

Nobunaga also listens with a strange face. Nobunaga, a man of the wealthy Oda Bullet Zhongjia, may not have heard so many troubled stories unexpectedly.

"At least try not to starve him."

"Right. I'm having a hard time with this."

Nobunaga shrugged a word to tell himself in Shiqing's old story.

After all, you're changing a little bit. Because of being with us, or because of the values of the samurai and warring nations, I think part of us came out close to the values of the original world.

Used to win battles to unify the heavens and the earth. Probably painted such an ideal. I just think I've been thinking lately about how to rule the territory when it's not a battle and prepare for when it's a battle.

I should have learned that a lot after Shinsu died that it was a historical fact.

I often say that the environment nurtures people, but maybe so does Nobunaga.

"You've got a long way to go."

"As things stand, there are still a lot of things to try with Ogi."

"The mountain village must choose its location and people early."

Me and Nobunaga talked about the mountain village where we haven't decided on a specific story so that we can move forward with a specific plan by spring.

There are quite a few things to try, such as the production of silk through charcoal grilling and silkworm breeding for shiitake mushroom cultivation. With regard to charcoal grilling, it seems that most of them are made in fairly cluttered ways in this era, and I would also like to let them manage charcoal grilling and forests through proper charcoal grilling kilns.

You're the one who leaves the problem to me, aren't you?
