Kira Yoshitoki looked at them, and they looked at Kira Yoshitoki, and then Kira Yoshitoki spread his hands, and the unknown knight curled his lips and shrugged at him...
Kira Yoshi urgently called Frank Agote and asked him to hire a person who was proficient in English and German as a translator. It was also a two-year contract with a total payment of two hundred pounds. Of course, the translator also had to be a part-time teacher to teach him how to use German. .
In fact, trading in silver is also something he likes to see, because the Portuguese have realized that the value of gold in Japan is high and the value of silver is low, so they directly pour in a large amount of gold to exchange for silver. Japan's gold output is simply worthless compared to silver. For example, Tsuruko Kaneyama in Sado mined more than 2,000 tons of silver, and it can be seen that the gold is only a few dozen tons.
This business still feels like a bit of a loss. It’s impossible not to be heartbroken when you throw out a salary worth tens of thousands of Yongle money at once, and the uncles you invite are all very expensive. If it weren’t for He also has quite a lot of assets, and his salary alone is enough to bankrupt him.
Twelve horses were treated as treasures by him and specially sent back to Sakamoto Castle by ship. He also specially sent horse warriors to take turns to protect these horses, firstly for protection, and secondly for confidentiality. Of course, the ninja army under Hattori Chief also took over. To keep the horse secret.
"The climate here is good, suitable for the growth of horses." The horse trainer Carl is a dull and boring British man. When he saw the scenery of Lake Biwa, he said: "This horse is only three years old, and it will take two to three years to train it into a war horse." , but I suggest that you’d better breed it as a horse breed. There has always been a habit of breeding horse breeds in continental Europe.”
Looking at the tall and strong horse surrounded by a group of curious horseback warriors, they have never seen such a tall horse. It is taller than a person. Its coat is shiny and its eyes are bright. If you look at it, it is a peerless horse. If If not for Kiragi's order to stay away, these guys would probably have to go into the stable and sleep with them.
"I understand this!" Kira Yoshi nodded thoughtfully and said: "Twelve horses cannot form an effective combat force. Breeding horse breeds is a long-term process. I think you can teach the apprentices in two years. How to raise a horse?"
"It's hard to say. A qualified horse trainer needs three to five years of teaching, a smart mind and hard-working hands. You have to know. You are the only one here who is proficient in English, so..." Carl shrugged to show that you understood. .
"Okay! Let's discuss this issue later! What if these horses are transported to a colder place? Will there be any adverse effects?"
"A colder place? I think there is no problem! The Trequena horse is a horse breed bred by the Teutonic Knights. The Holstein horse comes from the northernmost part of North Germany. Unlike the delicate and noble Arabian horse, they are both It is an excellent breed of horse that is very cold-resistant." Carl took Kira Yoshi into the stables, stroked the neck of one of the strong Trakna horses, and said, "They are very smart and sensitive little guys. They have just arrived at their new home. , I’m still a little uncomfortable meeting some new friends. You know, life on a bumpy ship for a few months is not that wonderful.”
"Fortunately, I have such an excellent horse trainer like you, otherwise I would really be in trouble!" Kira Yoshi asked: "Will there be any problems with the treatment of the illness? Do you want me to ask a veterinarian to help?"
"We horse trainers are natural veterinarians. The illnesses of these little guys shouldn't be a problem for me. Of course, it would be great if your veterinarian could help." After saying this, Carl nodded to him and left Kira behind. When I was righteous, I went to take care of these little ponies.
When Kira Yoshiki was bowing his head in thought, he heard someone calling softly: "Master!"
"Huh? That's the time." Xun looked out, and Yamaoka Tokiro, who was peeking outside the stable door, called him in a low voice. Of course Kira Yoshitoki knew what he wanted to say, so he shook his head and walked out.
Mr. Yamaoka said excitedly: "Master, are these sacred horses given to us?"
"Of course it's...impossible!"
"...Uh, why not give it to us?" Shan Gang fell from the peak to the bottom for a long time, "Oh no! I mean, even if it is not given to us, it must be given to the owner of the hall!" A group of horses beside him replied. When the samurai stared at Kiragi with wide eyes and hope, it goes without saying that he must be very eager.
Kira Yoshi felt that they had been somewhat indulged in the past few years and it was time to crack them down, so he scolded them with a straight face: "This is a famous horse for breeding. Do you know what breeding is? Is it more important to give you pleasure or to breed?" What's more important? Learn to think before you speak in the future. Don't even try to ask me. Do you understand?"
"Yes! Your Majesty, I understand!" Mr. Shan Gang bowed his head in fear.
"Understood, don't hang around in front of the stables." After saying this, Kira turned around and left the stables.
After dealing with the problem of British horse trainers, the next step is this group of North Germans. These guys are more troublesome. The most terrible thing is that they don't know English, so they have to use a translator to translate German into English. He manually translated it into Japanese by himself, and also added Matsui Nobuyuki came over to be a stenographer. During the communication process, Kira Yoshitoki was still working hard to learn German grammar. Fortunately, it seemed that there were many similarities between English and German grammar, and he could speak some simple spoken English in a few days. .
Within a few days, many people knew that there were several blond and blue-eyed Southern barbarians coming to Sakamoto Castle, and they were also Southern barbarian warriors. They were hired by Kira Yoshitoki from thousands of miles away with a high salary to serve as instructors. Soon the warriors from Mikawa came to find them. Asking about the situation of these southern barbarian warriors, it seemed that he wanted to compete with them.
A series of Mikawa samurai came over to ask for a fight, which annoyed Kiragi. Finally, he decided to hold a public trial at the Nimaru training ground of the Kira family. The opponents were the top swordsmen recognized by the Kira family. Tiao Shixiu, and opposite him was a real Teutonic knight named Hans of Nassau. There was still a big difference between the two sides.
"The trial fit begins!"
Nakajo Tokihide carefully observed this enemy. With a height of 1.9 meters, he had an absolute height advantage. He seemed to be unfamiliar with curved wooden swords. The increase in curvature made the balance of the blade completely different from that of a knight's sword. Toshihide Jojo grasped this point and immediately rushed towards him with tiptoe steps.
"Crack!"
Hans, who was still carefully adjusting his grip on the sword, suddenly killed him with his sword, accurately blocking Nakajo Tokihide's path and blocking his steps. The rhythm of the inevitable thrust was broken, and Nakajo Tokihide was struck. Xiu keenly realized that he had fallen into a dangerous situation. He felt like a wild beast being targeted by a hunter. An inner discomfort forced him to fight back.
"Bah bang bang!"
Nakajo Tokihide performed a combination of vertical slashes and horizontal slashes one after another. The last strike even used a rare jumping slash, but Hans easily caught him. Nakajo Tokihide, who had already exhausted all his strength, immediately regretted it.
, he was too confident in his own strength, so he took action rashly when the enemy and ourselves were unknown, and continued to pursue him unwillingly even after the first attack failed, and finally put himself in a dilemma.
Many samurai watching on the sidelines also noticed Nakajo Tokihide's flaw. Yamamoto Tokiyuki said: "If you mess up your position, Tokihide has already lost."
Nakajo Tokihide had no time to reflect. The next moment Hans's counterattack came as expected. All he could do was to quickly retreat to block, but the huge force when the two wooden swords collided shattered all his illusions. The wooden sword was hit by this force.
He pushed it away with great force, and the next moment the blunt tip of the knife was already touching his throat.
"Hiss! This southern barbarian is so strong and so fast with swordsmanship!" A layman is watching the fun, and an expert is watching the door. None of the warriors in the field are amateurs. They are all practicing swords or spears, even those who specialize in archery.
Naito Masashige also had good swordsmanship, so of course they could see how powerful this southern barbarian warrior was.
"Very powerful swordsmanship! Very violent fighting skills, but I like it!" Kira Yoshi stood up and was the first to applaud. Then sparse applause sounded one after another, and Hans also stepped back, put away his sword and saluted with a smile.
"This is too violent! This is the number one master of my Kira family!" Some young samurai were very unconvinced and shouted that victory was not a victory. Hans seemed very calm about some of the critical remarks and relayed it through a translator.
He said: "This is the body God gave him, so there is nothing wrong with what he did. He didn't hurt the warrior, right?"
"Tell him that in this skill competition, speed and strength can only be compared relatively fairly. Don't forget that you are here to be an instructor. Only by being familiar with your students can you teach them better." Kira Yoshishi said to the translator.
: "I think he's not used to using wooden swords, so let's let both sides use unedged weapons to try it out!"
Hans shrugged and expressed his understanding. In the next competition, both sides switched to bladeless weapons and gradually reduced their strength. It didn't take long for them to achieve the same duel with Nakajo Tokihide's strength. The German knight's swordsmanship was indeed very good.
It's amazing. The ball with half a hilt in the hand can be used as a lever to rotate around the wrist. The skill is very clever and the speed is very fast, making it hard to guard against.
Although Hans has already reduced his speed and strength, his body is too tall and his arms are very long. He can easily attack Nakajo Tokihide, but Nakajo Tokihide has difficulty getting close to the effective attack range. Therefore, this time
The duel, which was destined to be unfair, was finally stopped by Yoshitoki Kira. He first asked Tokihide Chujo to rest, and then asked Takatsuna Watanabe to go into battle with the katama gun.
Hans is also proficient in knight's spearmanship. Both horse and foot battles are very common in Europe. After several trials with Watanabe Takatsuna, Hans still ended up with an easy victory. Then the unconvinced samurai came on stage one by one.
They retreated one after another, and even though they were defeated in disgrace, this group of people still insisted that this was just the Southern Barbarian warriors taking advantage of their superiority.
"You are so unrepentant!" Seeing that there were still people who could not face up to the gap in skills, Kira Yoshishi simply ordered: "Let Rupert and the others come in!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster
