138. One Eye and One Foot, Kansuke Yamamoto(1/2)

After Shannan's summary, Qin Ming also discovered the problem.

There are too many boastful incidents in "Jiayang Military Academy". Takeda's retainers are unpredictable, and they are all the best. They are the best. They are the lower-level samurai, and they are very fierce. They fight seven per person.

How could the Takeda family end up completely destroyed?

Qin Ming looked at these exaggerated parts carefully and couldn't help but think of the online articles from his previous life.

It is so powerful that it is slaughtering the gods and destroying the Buddhas and fighting against the sky and the earth. No matter how exaggerated it, the great way has been erased.

"The author of "Jiayang Military Academy" is Masashinobu Takasaka. As Masashinobu Takasaka, there is no need to make up for it."

Qin Ming frowned. Masatoshi Takasaka was not an ordinary person. He was beautiful and loved by Takeda Shingen. The male style during the Warring States Period was not something that was difficult to say. Everyone knows that Takeda Shingen was acquainted by Masatoshi Takasaka and was caught in bed by Masatoshi Takasaka. He was forced to write a letter of guarantee, which has been passed down to this day.

In addition to such a noble status, Masatoshi Takasaka's personal abilities cannot be ignored. One of the four ministers of Takeda was famous for avoiding war and defending the Warring States Period.

Why do people like this have to write such a random military record?

If you brag too much, you will be black. Are you not afraid of your reputation being affected?

Shannan was also confused: "Compared with some valuable historical materials such as "Gaobaizhai Records" and "Shengshan Records", "Jiayang Military Academy" not only records extremely exaggerated battles, but also some problems of errors in the era, as well as some people who cannot find any deeds."

As he said that, Yamanan moved out a stack of letters he bought: "These letters I bought from the bookstore in Kofu Castle, which are similar to those I had seen in Edo before, and were documents from the Warring States Period."

"The Jiayang Military Academy also contains some documents, just like these letters, and even more detailed."

"The military arts recorded in it have also been praised by many military arts. Not only did it create the military arts of Koshu, it is also known as the number one military book in Japan. The term "Bushido" was also the first inventor of this book."

"Why do you need to add the exaggerated achievements that can be seen at a glance?"

"It would be too much to just brag about Takeda's retainers."

Shannan is more specific than Qin Ming's suspicion.

Qin Ming couldn't help but become solemn. In the "Jiayang Military Academy" written by Masato Takasaka, in addition to the excessively exaggerated war, other records all show the value of extremely high value.

Qin Ming didn't know why he had to brag about Takeda's retainers, but he knew that if he thought about it in a different direction, everything in "Jiayang Military Academy" was true, and the problem would be big.

People like Shannan do not know the supernatural and mysterious power, so it is naturally difficult to understand the records in "Jiayang Military Mirror", but Qin Ming knows it.

Qin Ming didn't understand the other things. If it was Yin-Yang Technique, it should be able to fight ten thousand.

For example, the most basic "curse" is easy to attach a demon to the samurai swords of the famous Takeda generals. If you open some other buffs or more advanced curse, the 1:10 battle damage even looks a bit ordinary.

"Ryuma, you and Kondo go to the city to search and buy all the books about Takeda's family."

The key to solving all puzzles is information.

The Warring States Period has been around for hundreds of years. Even if there is information, it has become half true and false, and even disappears because it is too long.

Qin Ming could only win by quantity and extract useful information from a large number of records.

Fortunately, there is a Ryuma, otherwise it would cost a lot of money to buy books. As for Kondo... of course, he is a coolie who moves books.

Sacks of books were moved into the hotel, and Qin Ming returned to the days when he read them late at night.

After watching it for three days and three nights in a row, Qin Ming finally found a clue.

The results in "Jiayang Military Academy" are extremely exaggerated and they are clamoring to the famous ministers of Takeda, but most of the people who are boasted have good results.

In other words, even if you don’t look at these achievements, you are all the most famous generals. They are often mentioned in the letters and war reports of the famous people in the Warring States Period.

There is only one exception.

Yamamoto Kazusuke.

Yamamoto Kansuke in "Jiayang Military Academy" practiced in the temple in his early years. Later, he traveled around various countries and became an official in the Takeda family. He loved "The Art of War" and was the "military advisor" of the Takeda family and made great contributions to the growth of the Takeda family.

The whole book highly praised him. No matter which story of a famous Takeda general is written, he must follow the trend and mention Yamamoto Kazusuke, saying that he predicts things like a god and makes great contributions.

At first, Qin Ming felt that it was nothing, because of the story of Yamamoto Kansuke, he has always been very famous. Even though he had heard of it in China in his previous life, the prototype of Conan Ri Yamato Kansuke, the novel "Wind Forest Volcano" with Yamamoto Kansuke as the protagonist has been made into movies and TV series many times.

The ancestor of the Kuroda family, Kuroda officer and Budweiser, was known as the world's number one military advisor, and Yamamoto Kansuke's reputation is not bad.

The people also enthusiastically compiled the statements of the four major military advisors of the Warring States Period, and Kuroda officers and soldiers were ranked first and second in the same period.

But Qin Ming later read a large number of letters and diaries from the Warring States Period, and there was no such person as "Yamamoto Kazusuke".

Only mentioned in "Jiayang Military Mirror".

"The Jiayang Military Academy is known as the world's number one military book. The name Kazusuke Yamamoto should have been spread with the Jiayang Military Academy. As it spread, people thought that this person was there, and the more it spread became more and more true. People spontaneously completed their deeds, and not many people doubted it."

"Does this person Yamamoto Kansuke really exist?"

Qin Ming couldn't help but draw a big question mark in his heart.

If it existed, why were there no letters, documents, and diaries of the same period recorded?

If it did not exist, why did Masatoshi Takasaka spend a lot of money to write a non-existent person into the "Jiayang Military Mirror", and also widely publicize his deeds, vaguely giving him the status of "military advisor" who surpasses all Takeda's retainers and supreme?

The first thing Qin Ming suspected was the position of "military advisor".

When talking about military advisors, Qin Ming first thought of Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang was called a military advisor and actually served as military advisor generals, military advisor generals and other positions.

Do Japan have these official positions?

No.

Is Yamamoto Kamsuke really the military advisor of the Takeda Army?

Yamamoto Kansuke was quite active in many events in the Takeda family, such as customizing the "Koshu Laws" and so on. During the fourth battle between Kawaakashima, the Takeda army's plan to attack the Uesugi Army's garrison at night was also proposed by Yamamoto Kansuke to Takeda Shingen.

In "Jiayang Military Mirror", it was mentioned repeatedly that Yamamoto Kansuke liked Chinese military tactics very much, and explained the "Zhuge Kongming Eight Formation Map" to the generals of the Takeda family in front of Shingen Takeda.

Putting aside the tactical level, if we only use the book "Kayang Military Academy" as evidence, it is obvious that Yamamoto Kazusuke is the "military advisor" of the Takeda family, referring to the "combattalion staff" that Qin Ming recognized.

Yamamoto Kazusuke also meets the "military advisor" standard.

But the problem is that when Qin Ming reads other records, he will be self-contradictory.

The military discussions of Takeda's family belong to the "collegial system", which means that everyone holds a meeting and sits together to express their opinions. It is impossible for a combat adviser to be above everyone and specifically provide advice.

However, Qin Ming could not investigate in depth, because except for "Jiayang Military Academy", there was no record of Yamamoto Kansuke in other books, so it was impossible to investigate.

"Military advisor...Military advisor..."

Qin Ming kept tapping on the table, and suddenly a light of inspiration appeared: "Kuroda officer and soldier!"

"Since Kuroda officers and Wei and Kamsuke Yamamoto are both called military advisors, they must have common ground in some ways!"

"Yamamoto Kansuke has no detailed records, but Kuroda officers and soldiers have them! Moreover, Kuroda officers and soldiers still have descendants, and the Kuroda family lineage has survived to this day!"

Qin Ming quickly asked Ryuma to go on another trip and bought a bunch of records about Kuroda officers and soldiers.

After entrusting Kuroda Nagato, there are many deeds about Kuroda officers and soldiers in Kofu City. Kuroda Nagato wants the Kuroda family to gain a foothold in Kafari, the best way is to spread the deeds of his ancestors so that the people of Kafari can be convinced by the Kuroda family from the bottom of their hearts.

The story of Kuroda officers and soldiers who later raised troops to fight for dominance is only considered as "military advisors" when he was under Toyotomi Hideyoshi's command in his early years.

"In the Battle of Eigaura, the flooding of Takamatsu Castle was built, China's great rebellion, four countries' conquests, Kyushu conquests, Odawara Rai Castle battle, Kitakyushu dominance, everyone knows that they don't need to see it."

"The Kuroda officer and soldier, can't have been fighting all the time. What was he doing when there was no war?"

"What are the positions of military advisors?"

Qin Ming felt his eyes a little astringent, but he still looked it up.

Kuroda officers and soldiers have too many deeds and are quite active. In addition, Kuroda Nagato deliberately boasted, it is quite troublesome to find useful parts.

But we can't let Tu Fang. Shannan and others come to investigate. Qin Ming always feels that the truth behind it is not simple. If others are involved, they will put them in danger.

"There's there..."

I don’t know if I missed a few meals, Qin Ming finally found what he needed.

"Kuroda officer and soldier are the "subject" between Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Daming, and the Kuomintang. In other words, the main responsibility is to assist Hideyoshi's foreign negotiations."

"It should be credible. Later, his son Kuroda Nagamasa was under Tokugawa Ieyasu's command and also did similar work."

"It is not the "military advisor" who we usually think of as a staff officer who uses strategies during combat. Although he also has similar positions, he also has functions such as military supervisors and messengers."

It is much easier to find the scope of position of a "military advisor".

Just find similar people in the documents, correspondence, diary and other records of Takeda's family.

Qin Ming was more inclined to be a real person, but because when the "Jiayang Military Academy" was written, the printing technology was not yet developed, and he still copied it by handwriting and copying, and was copied by later generations incorrectly.

After all, it would be terrible if it was fake. I created a person.

"Finished."

It took about half a day to check this time. Qin Ming found a man named "Yamamoto Susuke" in a document from the Takeda family.

"In the third year of Hongzhi, Yamamoto Susu Susu went to the Ichikawa Nobuya in Kitashino as an envoy. When the Ichikawa clan was attacked by Kenshino the Uesugi the year before, the reinforcements of the Takeda army did not arrive in time, and at the same time commended the Ichikawa clan's loyalty to the Takeda family, and was not transferred by Kenshino Uesugi."

"In the first year of Echon, Yamamoto Susuke, as the envoy of Takeda Shingen, visited Takeda's retainer Koyamada Tokman who played the city of Tojoni, Kawaakashima. Koyamada Tokman was the garrison of Takeda's family's stronghold on Kawaakashima. Koyamada Tokman was the garrison of Takeda's family's stronghold on Kawaakashima. He happened to be sick this year and it was very difficult to walk. Yamamoto Susuke was ordered to visit the disease, and at the same time took over his authority and issued relevant military instructions."

"Earlier, many of them wrote Chinese characters according to pronunciation. Based on this, Yamamoto Sugasuke should be Yamamoto Kazusuke in "Kayang Military Academy"."

The deeds are also quite consistent. Yamamoto Susuke is active in the area of ​​Nakajima, Kita Shinno River, and as an envoy of Takeda Shingen, he travels between important officials of the Takeda clan and the country, which is equivalent to the position that Kuroda officer and soldier Wei is under Toyotomi Hideyoshi's command.

Although it is a messenger, it is despised. Sometimes the messenger is even higher than the retainer.

The messengers between Daming were not ordinary people who ran errands to deliver letters, because in the Warring States Period, Daming's official letters were very short, so a person trusted by Daming needed to be responsible for delivering the letters and conveying the instructions and meanings of Daming verbally.

Judging from the work that Yamamoto Susuke was responsible for, his status was quite high. At least when he was responsible for conveying Takeda Shingen's meaning, the people of the country should know that this person was a retainer of Takeda Shingen and could trust him, so it can be explained that Yamamoto Susuke was one of the most famous retainers of the Takeda family at this time.
