plan

"No problem.

Currently, Nagaoka has secured Niigata port.
They are supplemented with the latest weapons from here.

Therefore，although we need to secured there soon as possible.
Even so，outbreak of war is at peak of Nagaoka's fighting force.
They're troops about thousand people.　
No affect to the total war.

Plan is allowed to proceed as scheduled.
Please tells so to Kyoto."
Omura said.

Royal visit to Edo city of the Emperor.
After destruction of the Shogitai，it had been planned in earnest.
(of course secretly)
This was the plan of relocation of the capital virtually.

So，the safety of Edo city.
It was essential for this plan.

"We must show to the East Japan that the times have changed.
We prevent the intensification of the war by it.
This royal visit has also its meaning.

There is no risk at all.
Due to the nature of this thing，that is impossible.
　　
However，we have secured the Nanzheng Castle already.
Reinforcements of soldiers is also progressing well.
They lost the Hanzhong.
Northern Expedition would be impossible in that state.

I assert.
Changan Castle is completely safe."

"Also they gave us an important clue."
　　

・・・・・・・・・
　
　
"Reproduce of the Northern and Southern Dynasties."
They were concerned about this.

This reality came out by escape of Imperial prince.
　　

・・・・・・・・・　　
　
　
”I understood.”
But Omura laughed.

"Enomoto never participate in combat."
Tokugawa navy was still their threat.

"In order to seal their movements，conversely royal visit should run as soon as possible."
　
"And Hirakata is the landfall point."
