    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 Yoshitoki urgently called Frank Agote and asked him to  He hired a person who was proficient in English and German as a translator. The same two-year contract cost a total 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 production is simply worthless compared to silver.  For example, more than 2,000 tons of silver were mined at Tsuruko Kaneyama in Sado, and it can be seen that the gold was only a few dozen tons.  This business is still a bit of a loss. It¡¯s impossible not to feel pain when you throw out a salary worth tens of thousands of Yongle money at once. And the uncles who are invited are all very expensive. If it weren¡¯t for  He also has considerable 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 horses to grow." 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 looking horse warriors, they had never seen anything like this.  Tall horse.  He is taller than anyone else.  Moreover, the fur is shiny and the eyes are bright. You can tell that it is a peerless horse.  If it hadn't been for Kiragi's order not to come near, these guys would have gone into the stable and slept 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 requires three to five years of training, a smart mind and hard-working hands. You have to know that you are the only one who is proficient in English here, so"  Carl shrugged to show you understood.  "Okay! Let's talk about this 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 Trakna horses are from the Teutonic Knights.  The breed of horses they cultivate, Holstein horses, come from the northernmost part of North Germany. They are different from the delicate and elegant Arabian horses. They are excellent horse breeds that are very cold-resistant." Karl took Kiragi into the stables and stroked them.  The neck of a strong Trakna horse said: "They are very smart and sensitive little guys. They have just arrived in their new home and are still a little uncomfortable meeting some new friends. You must know that a few months of bumpy life on a ship are not  Not so wonderful. " "Fortunately, I have such an excellent horse trainer, otherwise I would be really worried!" Ji Liangyi asked: "Will there be any problems with the treatment? Do you want me to ask a veterinarian to help?  "We horse trainers are natural veterinarians. The illnesses of these little guys should not be difficult for me. Of course, it would be great if your veterinarian can help." After saying this, Karl nodded to him and left.  During the time of Ji Liangyi, he went to serve these little ponies.  When Kira Yoshitomo was bowing his head in thought, he heard someone calling softly: "Mr. Master!" "Huh? It's Shichang." Looking out, Yamaoka Tokuma, who was peeking outside the stable door, called him in a low voice, Kira Yoshitoki  Of course she knew what he wanted to say, so she shook her head and walked out.  Yamaoka Tokugawa said excitedly: "Master, are these divine horses given to us?" "Of courseimpossible!" "Uh, why not give them to us?" Yamaoka Tokugawa suddenly fell from the top.  At the bottom of the valley, "Oh no! What I mean is that even if it is not given to us, it must be given to the master of the hall!" When a group of horse warriors beside him stared at Kiragi with wide eyes and hope, it goes without saying that they must be very eager.  of.  Kira Yoshi felt that they had been somewhat indulged in the past few years, and it was time to give them a beating, 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. Don¡¯t even ask me, okay?¡± ¡°Yes! I understand!¡± Yamaoka Shichang bowed his head in fear.  "Understood, don't hang around in front of the stables." After leaving these words, Kira Yoshi turned around and left the stables.  Having dealt with the problem of British horse trainers, next is this group of North Germans.??These guys are more troublesome. The worst thing is that they don't speak English, so they have to use a translator to translate German into English. He translated it into Japanese manually and called Matsui Nobuyuki over as a stenographer. During the communication process, Kiragi  I am still working hard to learn German grammar. Fortunately, it seems that there are many similarities between English and German grammar, and I can speak some simple spoken English in a few days.  Within a few days, many people knew that there were several blond and blue-eyed Nanban people coming to Sakamoto Castle, and they were also Nanban samurai. They were hired by Kira Yoshitoki from thousands of miles away with a high salary to serve as instructors. Soon there were samurai from Mikawa.  Asking about the situation of these southern barbarian warriors, he seemed to want 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 the person 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 the enemy. He had an absolute height advantage with his height of 1.9 meters. It seemed that he was not familiar with the curved wooden sword. The increase in curvature made the balance of the blade and  The knight's sword was completely different. Chujo Tokihide grasped this and immediately rushed towards him with tiptoe steps.  "Bang!" Hans, who was still carefully adjusting his grip on the sword, suddenly struck with a sword, accurately blocking Nakajo Tokihide's path, blocking his steps, and breaking the rhythm of the inevitable thrust.  , Nakajo Tokihide keenly realized that he had fallen into a dangerous situation. This feeling was like a beast being stared at by a hunter, and a feeling of discomfort from the heart forced him to fight back.  "Bah, bang, bang!" Chujo Tokihide performed a combination of vertical chops and horizontal slashes one after another. The last blow even used a rare jumping slash, but Hans still easily caught him. Chujo, who had already exhausted all his strength,  Shixiu immediately regretted it. He was too confident in his own strength, so he took action rashly when the enemy and we were unknown. He was unwilling to pursue after a failed attack, and finally put himself in a dilemma.  Many samurai watching on the sidelines also noticed Chujo Tokihide's flaw. Yamamoto Tokiyuki said: "If you mess up your position, Tokihide has already lost." Chujo Tokihide had no time to reflect, and Hans's counterattack came as expected the next moment.  All he could do was to hurriedly retreat to block, but the huge force when the two wooden knives collided shattered all his illusions. The wooden knife was knocked away by this huge force, and the next moment the blunt tip of the knife had reached him.  on the throat.  "Hiss! This southern barbarian is so strong and so fast with swordsmanship!" A layman is watching the excitement, and an expert is watching the door. None of the warriors in the field are laymen. They are all practicing swords or spears, even those who specialize in archery.  Naito Masashige also has good swordsmanship. Of course they can see how powerful this southern barbarian warrior is.  "Very powerful swordsmanship! Very violent fighting skills, but I like it!" Kira Yoshi stood up and took the lead in applauding. 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 top master of my Kira family!" Some young samurai were very unconvinced, shouting that victory was not possible with force. Hans seemed very calm about some of the critical remarks, and relayed it through the translator.  Knowing that he said: "This is the body God gave him, so there is nothing wrong with what he did. He did not hurt the warrior, right?" "Tell him, in this skill competition, speed and strength can only be compared with each other.  In a fair comparison, don't forget that you are here to be an instructor. Only by being familiar with your students can you teach them better." Kira Yoshihi said to the translator: "I don't think he is used to using wooden swords, so let both sides use it.  Let's try out the bladed weapons!" 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 before they could reach the same strength as Chujo Tokihide.  In the duel, the German knight's swordsmanship was indeed very powerful. The ball with half the hilt in the hand could be used as a lever to rotate around the wrist. The skill was very high and the speed was very fast, making it difficult 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 that was destined to be unfair was finally terminated by Yoshitoki Kira. He first asked Tokihide Chujo to rest, and then asked Takatsuna Watanabe to go into battle with the katama gun.  Hans was also proficient in knightly spearmanship. Both horse and foot battles were 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 really ungrateful!" I saw that there are still people who cannot face up to the difference in skills.From now on, Yoshiki Kira simply ordered: "Let Rupert and the others come in!"
