Chapter 317: Alliance Marriage Letter from Kyushu Island
Chapter 317 Letter of alliance (marriage) from Kyushu Island
In Kyoto, it is still not very peaceful.
The influence brought by the Haneda family caravan is still continuing to ferment, but for Li Wei, on the one hand, the meat and seafood brought by this caravan have indeed improved Li Wei's quality of life.
But on the other hand, Li Wei always felt that they were holding back some bad water, and maybe a big incident would happen in the future.
Therefore, Levi's temporary purpose was to have the ninjas from the Intelligence Department keep an eye on him all the time, especially on the eve of Minamoto Yoritomo's war.
As more and more information was sent back, Li Wei discovered that Shendu seemed to be in an inexplicable state of fanaticism.
It was like the whole god was going crazy, and everyone was desperately twisting into a rope, trying to completely break through Kyoto and kill Li Wei.
It was like falling into a group frenzy.
However, they should still be in the stage of war mobilization. It is expected that it will take more than a month to complete the mobilization to attack Kyoto, and it will probably take a lot of time to get to Kyoto.
In short, Li Wei still has plenty of time.
He sent a message to the artificial intelligence Eva, telling her not to give lessons to others later. Levi had some things to discuss.
Not long has passed in the main world, and it has only been more than ten days since Eva obtained the device from the cyberpunk world.
By the time Li Wei arrived here, Eva's achievements over the past ten days made Li Wei feel a little incredible. The bolt-action rifle had been produced, and the rifles had begun to have more rifling, which greatly enhanced the shooting range.
This is not the main thing. What is more important is that with the birth of chemical fertilizers, Li Wei can farm boldly without worrying about whether the land will become barren and desertified because of those high-yielding plants of later generations.
What can really increase yields and enable large-area planting and crop production is the birth of chemical fertilizers. Only with the birth of chemical fertilizers can those high-yielding crops grow smoothly.
Sweet potatoes, corn, Chinese cabbage, radish, wheat, and rice can all be harvested, but many of these will have to wait until next year.
If Minamoto no Yoritomo had not attacked, Li Wei would have even wanted to cultivate the fields for a few years first, directly realize large-scale production of all farmland, and increase productivity to at least the level of the 18th century before starting to expand outward.
However, due to Minamoto Yoritomo's attack, Li Wei had to start producing other tools.
"Eva, start manufacturing a special interceptor production line and produce interceptors non-stop." Levi ordered.
"Okay, Mr. Levi." Eva also responded.
This factory was originally a production base for interceptors. It was quickly converted from other production lines to interceptors. Levi decided that he was not prepared to fight a traditional war with Minamoto Yoritomo.
Even though he was still playing charges, setting up ladders to attack the city, or lining up to shoot, Li Wei felt that this was no longer enough to withstand the all-out attack of the divine capital.
He planned to produce a large number of interceptors, and directly use the interceptors to load his napalm air strikes, making the Genji Shogunate become as hot as Tokyo eight hundred years later.
Each interceptor can carry about two napalm bombs. Before starting the attack, it will conduct a few waves of bombing. After the bombing is completed, infantry will be sent to press the border.
Levi directly skipped the Blitzkrieg and the Torrent of Steel, and prepared to directly reenact the Tokyo Air Raid and the Sea Bend War.
"Okay, the interceptor production line can be started at any time. It is expected that three interceptor aircraft will be produced a day." Eva's voice sounded.
Levi nodded. He was actually planning to start the next copy directly after a short break, and then meet with Eva to discuss his plans for raising poultry and fish.
…
The Satsuma Domain as far away as Kyushu Island also began large-scale mobilization at this time.
"Mother, according to our intelligence, the Genji shogunate began to prepare to attack Kyoto, and claimed to massacre everyone in Kyoto, and cut off Fujiwara Riyu's head in public to pay tribute to heaven." Sakata Kintoki said.
"Genji...that Minamoto Yoritomo..." When talking about the Genji family, Ibuki Doji always shows a complicated expression.
Does she hate the Genji family? Maybe, Genji ruined her life, ruined everything about her, and turned herself into what she is now, neither a human nor a ghost.
However, when it came time to attack Genji, she hesitated. After all, that was the family she wanted to protect to the death.
For some reason, she took out an ancient firearm. Even after so many years, the gun that the man gave her was still intact, as if time had not left any traces on it.
This gun is the Colt 1887, a system product, the most classic pistol in the Colt series, which created countless cowboy legends during the Bald Eagle's Western Expansion era.
She picked up the gun in her hand, but for her now, this gun used by humans was very small, and because her hands were covered with purple snake scales and had nails that were alienated like cuticles, she used
This weapon is still very difficult to use.
"Sakata..."
"I'm here, mother." Kintaro picked up the battle ax in his hand and said.
"Let's start mobilizing our business strength. I'm going to Kyoto." She said, the sea breeze blowing, which was still warm and moist even in winter, made her feel extremely beautiful.
"Mother...why did you..." Sakata Kintoki stood here, confused.
"The Minamoto family and I have severed all ties, and last time, they tricked thousands of our ashigaru to death. This time, let's unite with Kyoto to attack the Minamoto family." She said,
"Besides, I want to go to Kyoto to confirm one thing. Is the head of the Fujiwara family actually him or his descendant?"
When Ibuki Doji mentioned "descendants", there was an extremely dangerous expression on his face.
This made Sakata Kintoki on the side couldn't help but shudder.
It then asked tentatively: "Then... if the master Fujiwara is the descendant of the adoptive father, how are you going to treat it... I am just saying that if... after all, it has been hundreds of years, the adoptive father has descendants.
It’s normal…”
"Then kill him." She said calmly, but it sounded very crazy.
Hundreds of years of time and grievance may eventually turn into regret and madness.
A hundred years was so long that she even forgot what that man looked like and what he looked like, but she had to confirm and see him.
Over hundreds of years, she escaped to Kyushu Island and completely turned this place into her own base camp. She seemed to understand that the most important thing was to have power in her own hands.
Over the past hundreds of years, she had fought dozens of times against the influence of the Orochi that remained in the Orochi's heart. The Orochi's heart seemed to stop affecting her will all the time, and seemed to want to seize her body and become the next Orochi.
Then, in the illusion, she killed the big snake again and again, maintaining the last personality and consciousness of Minamoto Yoriko.
And Levi's back figure appears in every illusion, even if it's just a confirmation, even if it's just a face-to-face question.
If it is really him, then I decide to give him another chance. If he is just the descendant of that man, Ibuki Doji will definitely kill him completely, cut him open, chop him up, cook and eat him, he will definitely do it!
"Okay, okay, I'll mobilize our management forces immediately, and then set off to participate in this war..." Kintaro left quickly. If he didn't leave, he might be beaten for no reason.
After leaving this place, it clasped its hands together and made a praying gesture, hoping that everyone would be okay.
And I hope that if the two parties really meet, they can calm down a little. Kintaro just feels that it is really too difficult for him.
And I also hope that if the two of them can get together in the end...
After all, after becoming Ibuki-douji, my mother's temperament also changed drastically. The originally brave and gentle Minamoto Yorimitsu was no longer there, but turned into the snake-like Ibuki-douji.
The departure of her adoptive father and the betrayal of her by the Minamoto family were a double blow. Minamoto Yorimitsu almost lost everything in an instant, and perhaps due to the influence of Orochi, her character completely changed.
Kintaro only felt that he hoped that his adoptive father would have a higher emotional intelligence and be able to appease his mother, so that she could once again become the heroic yet gentle Minamoto no Yorimitsu she had been before, instead of the cold, bloodthirsty and ruthless Ibuki Doji she was now.
And looking at the snake scales on the mother's body, he often wanted to find a way to completely separate the heart of the mother from the snake. In that case, her personality should be changed back.
"Father, it must be you, and you must not say the wrong thing..." The three-meter-tall demon strong man began to pray.
He left in a hurry, preparing to mobilize the forces operating here.
On Kyushu Island, before Yorimitsu Minamoto arrived, it was basically a wasteland with only villages, and the people were all short and dark.
But over hundreds of years, they established a country here, built a city here, and built the Satsuma Domain into a place that was not inferior to any other vassal state.
Although they have become monsters now, they may still regard themselves as human beings in their hearts.
Therefore, in the entire Satsuma Domain, ordinary people may live in the best places among several capitals, because the rulers are demons who have been running this place for hundreds of years. They also look down on the food and money in human hands and will not treat them.
Exploiting the bottom.
Sakata Kintoki picked up the two-meter gold and iron giant axe, and began to come to the Samurai clan's guard team samurai. This is a place they have been operating for hundreds of years. There are several swordsmen and nearly a hundred senior samurai, all of whom
The combined combat power of the samurai is nearly a thousand.
After leaving his mother's palace, Sakata Kintoki transformed back into the feared demon Kintaro, and was no longer a golden retriever.
"Everyone, the feudal lord has spoken. This time we will participate in the war in Weibara, compete in the world, and officially become the enemy of the Genji shogunate!" Kintaro shouted, and the loud voice resounded throughout the entire guard station.
All the warriors who were still training stopped what they were doing and looked over, with a fierce glint in their eyes.
"I will attack the divine capital for the feudal lord! Get the head of the Genji dog!" I don't know who yelled this sentence.
All the warriors were extremely excited. They had been waiting for this day for so long that they began to doubt the usefulness of their constantly honed martial arts.
And today, I finally heard this exciting news.
Samurai are born for war. Only through war can they achieve meritorious deeds and obtain more resources and better weapons.
"Minamoto Yoritomo is cruel and immoral, he is immoral and unjust, and he has kidnapped the emperor. He is a wolf-hearted man, and cannot be tolerated by heaven. Our lord has a good heart and cannot bear to see the emperor suffer such a disaster, so he decided to become an enemy of Genji and enter the divine capital.
, Save the Emperor!" Kintaro impassionedly read out the manuscript he had written for who knows how many years.
"Surge into the divine capital and rescue the emperor!"
"Surge into the divine capital and rescue the emperor!"
Kintaro has been waiting for this day for a long time. From the moment the Minamoto family turned his mother into such a monster, the Minamoto family had no kindness to him at all, only hatred.
Besides, Sakata Kintoki is really not familiar with the Minamoto family. He was raised by Minamoto no Yorimitsu and Watanabe, not by his Minamoto family.
When it killed the Yuan family a hundred years ago, it even wanted to go back and completely kill all the Yuan family, but it was stopped by its mother.
"Everyone, get ready, settle down your family members, and start getting ready for departure. Prepare food and supplies. We will head to Kyoto in five days!" Kintaro shouted.
"Ohhhhhhh!"
And after the samurai were mobilized, he quickly started writing letters and contacted his informants in Himeji Castle.
On their way to Kyoto, they must pass through Himeji Castle, and soon they will need to contact the daimyo of Kyoto as the lord of Satsuma Domain, which is equivalent to a formal diplomatic alliance.
And when we get to Kyoto, my mother may meet my adoptive father as soon as possible...
When the time comes, whether they will officially be together or start a fight, Sakata Kintoki just hopes that it won't be the latter.
…
Kyoto at night.
When Li Wei returned to the house, the spider had already returned and brought Li Wei a letter.
This is an invitation letter from the Haneda family, which is the winter festival event they have been preparing for a long time.
"Winter Festival? I'm not interested, do you want to go?" Levi looked at it and threw it aside.
He has no interest in this kind of exchange between nobles. He wants to develop technology, improve his life, or deal with Minamoto Yoritomo who is about to attack Kyoto again.
And this time, it is said that Minamoto no Yoritomo personally went on an expedition and was bound to kill Li Wei.
"How can I put it, I'm not interested in the Winter Festival, but I am interested in the elixir that may appear there." Spider is indeed not interested in communication between nobles, but if there is information about the elixir, she will not be sleepy.
.
"The Haneda family threw out the elixir as a smoke bomb again? Are they fishing? Then who are they trying to catch, is it me?" Levi continued.
"It could be me." Spider interrupted.
"If I catch you, I will definitely show up, but do they really have the elixir in their hands? Who gave them the confidence?" Li Wei was very confused about the Haneda family's operation.
While the two of them were communicating and cooking dinner, there was a knock on the door.
Fujiwara Chihime has also returned from the affairs of the Daming Palace. She is always protected by a guardian ninja, and Li Wei does not go back to pick her up every day.
"Brother, let me show you this." Chiki Fujiwara took out a secret letter and handed it to Li Wei.
"Secret message? Directly to the Daming Palace?" Li Wei was a little confused. After reading it, he found that it was an invitation from the Satsuma clan to form an alliance, and he was ready to work with them to deal with the Genji shogunate, which was causing trouble to the world.
He also said that after a few days of preparation, samurai would arrive to assist them in resisting the attack of the Genji shogunate.
"Brother, do you know anyone from the Satsuma Domain of Hyuga Kingdom? Or do you know the daimyo there?" Chiki Fujiwara also sat next to the stove and asked by the way, putting her little hands on the edge of the stove to warm herself.
"I don't know you, but you also know me. I haven't even left Kyoto after being picked up by the head of the family." Li Wei said, the tone in the secret letter was, for some reason, a bit intimate.
It sounded like an acquaintance who had known each other for a long time, but Levi could be sure that he had never left Honshu Island, let alone Hyuga Country on Kyushu Island.
"Before that..." Chiki Fujiwara seemed to think that there was no one Li Wei knew before he was picked up, but she still didn't say anything.
"Don't worry, I will handle the negotiations with the Satsuma Domain. You should start handling the water conservancy project in Kyoto, and let the person in charge of farming...who is it?" Li Wei somewhat forgot that name.
"Fujiwara Miko."
"Oh, yes, it's her. She can start to plant winter wheat on a large scale, and some winter vegetables, including Chinese cabbage and radishes. Then I think it might be a lot easier with cabbage in winter." Li Wei quickly took out some seeds from another space.
The quality of crop seeds produced by Bald Eagle is absolutely guaranteed.
There is no Chinese cabbage in the Sakura Country, only bracken. To Li Wei, a winter without Chinese cabbage for hot pot is like the West without Jerusalem.
In the past, because food was in short supply, farmland had to be used to grow potatoes to survive the winter. But now that chemical fertilizers are available, you can grow whatever you want in terms of crops.
However, Weiyuan is really a food desert now. They seem to have no other way to eat except miso soup and dipping sauce.
What about the ramen that they were famous for in later generations? And those sushi and the like, Levi didn't see them at all.
On the contrary, chazuke rice is the mainstream meal in this era.
So Li Wei planned to plant some winter wheat so that he could grind flour to make noodles.
"No, brother, aren't we discussing the Satsuma clan's preparation for an alliance with us? Why did you go to the food again while you were talking?" Chiki Fujiwara looked at Levi and picked up a baked one. I asked while eating potatoes.
"This aspect is all my responsibility. I think the alliance can do it too. After all, our current foundation is very poor. No matter how hard we recruit and train samurai, the time is too short. We only have a few hundred people in combat power. We may really break out into a full-scale force." In the war, we will still be at a disadvantage." Levi said.
"Yeah, but what I'm worried about is that the alliance can't just talk about it. There should be something to maintain the alliance relationship." A trace of anxiety appeared on Chiki Fujiwara's face.
"You mean?"
"Marriage, etc. Isn't marriage the most effective way to maintain an alliance?"
