What made you have the illusion that I am the protagonist! ?

With the falling of several snowfalls, all residents of Kyoto can clearly feel that the law and order in this city is gradually improving.

In the first half month, the outlaw ronin and samurai captured by Anpingya filled the place for detention, and then they were simply sent to the prison of Soshidai in Kyoto, where they were given only water but no food. God will tell.

Some people are really forced by life. They have no living skills and can only wield swords. They have no choice but to commit crimes. After hearing about Anping House hiring bodyguards in prison, they simply joined Anping House directly after they were released from prison.

Of course, there is no shortage of repeat offenders, but no matter how stupid they are, they will learn to walk around the men and horses in Anping House after a few times. After all, it is really hard to live hungry for a few days after being caught.

Or change to go out in the dead of night, but because there are few people going out at night, and there are people from the Shinsengumi and Kyoto Shoji patrolling, if they are caught by them, it will not be enough to go hungry for a few days .

There are fewer incidents of unscrupulous ronin threatening businesses, and even if they happen, they will be dealt with immediately by the patrol team close at hand. It is almost impossible to see samurai slashing people in the street during the daytime. For a while, Kyoto is really called Shanghe Qinghaiyan.

"I'm really ashamed, I didn't expect that Ishitani-kun could do it so easily..."

When the cadres of the Shinsengumi gathered for a meal one day, talking about this topic, Isamu Kondo sighed so much.

"Stone Valley?"

The newly joined Yukimura Chizuru subconsciously uttered in doubt when she heard the name of an unknown person.

She came to Beijing to look for her father Tsunamichi Yukimura, who had not returned for half a year, and she had just arrived in Kyoto not long ago.

Anpingya has improved the law and order in Kyoto, but it is far from the level of not picking up things on the road and not closing the house at night, and she happens to be one of the unlucky ghosts who are not familiar with the rules of Kyoto and unfortunately encounter illegal ronin at night, because she saw the Shinsengumi hacking and killing illegal ronin Things that were inconvenient to be seen by others were taken back to the village by Tufang and others.

Because she was arrested by the Shinsengumi not long after she arrived in Kyoto, and she has been under house arrest in the garrison, so she has never heard of the now quite famous owner of Anping House, Toya Ishitani.

However, after learning that she is the daughter of Tsunamichi Yukimura, who has some ties to the Shinsengumi, Chizuru gained some freedom, such as eating together like now, which can be regarded as a kind of close surveillance.

"Oh, Chizuru, you probably haven't heard of it. Anpingya was just established in the last two months." Fujido Heisuke immediately spoke up, explaining the ins and outs of Anpingya to her.

"Maintain law and order in Kyoto? Isn't that amazing?" Chizuru immediately praised happily.

"Well... To be honest, we didn't expect him to develop to such an extent in just two months." Harada Sanosuke took a bite of the rice and said while chewing, "Who knows how many people there are in Anpingya now?"

Yongcang Shinpachi protested loudly: "Ah - Zuo Zhi, don't talk while eating and then spray the rice everywhere, okay, it's disgusting!"

"500 people, a conservative estimate." Saito replied after a quick calculation.

Harada, who asked this question, obviously put the topic behind him, and retorted dissatisfiedly: "Shinpachi, who is saying that it is spraying everywhere? It's obviously not good, is it?"..."

"so much……"

Leaving aside the squabbling over there, those who are still following this serious topic were taken aback. Although they knew that Anpingya was developing rapidly, they didn't expect it to be so fast. Even Kondo gasped, Shinsengumi The number of people is less than one-eighth of the opponent.

"They set up a patrol point on every street, and there are at least five people in each point. There are no less than a hundred streets in Kyoto, so there are indeed at least 500 people." Okita said with his chopsticks in his mouth, "Kondo-sensei, Matsudaira Did Mr. Rong Bao say something?"

"...No." Isamu Kondo said with a complicated mood.

It is also an armed organization organized by the people themselves - although the Shinsengumi has now been incorporated by the Aizu Domain, the treatment is really different.

I am afraid that the reason lies in the origins of the Shinsengumi and others. Both Kondo and Hijikata are from civilian backgrounds, and the Shinsengumi also flaunts themselves by looking at their abilities regardless of their backgrounds. However, the thinking of thousands of years is not so easy to loosen. However, many children of samurai origin are not willing to condescend to join the Shinsengumi and rank below them as commoners—this is one of the reasons why the Shinsengumi is not pleasing to the eyes of the governor of Kyoto. The Shinsengumi of civilian origin keeps pace with them, How can those second generations bear it.

As a result, to a large extent, if the Shinsengumi wants to develop team members, they can only find them from commoners who know martial arts and a few warriors who don't mind their status. How can there be so many civilians?

At this point, Ishitani Toya will take advantage of it.

He was indeed born in a wealthy family. The so-called Juyi Qi and Nurturing Body will be reflected in many details. With the addition of Diarmuid's bonus and his familiarity with Western things, even if he is not familiar with his own origin The words are vague, neither Kondo nor Matsudaira Nobuhide has ever doubted the fact that he came from a prominent background.

With the second generations of the Kyoto Division serving as his platform, those low-level samurai would naturally not reject joining his command, and their livelihood was solved, and it sounds good to say it, so the problem of the source of team members that has troubled Kondo for a long time is not at all for Toyomi question.

Even in terms of the trustworthiness of the residents of Kyoto, Anpingya quickly caught up and became one of the most trusted organizations by the residents.

In the past, even if the residents of Kyoto were persecuted, they didn't know how to ask for help. So they turned to the Kyoto Soshidai?Those second generations can't really think about it for the common people.Turn to Shinsengumi for help?The Mibu wolves are so famous that it's too late to keep them at arm's length. Who would dare to ask them for help?

Nowadays, residents can seek help from the Anpingwu garrison point if they have anything to do. If one point is not enough, they can send more than a dozen people from nearby points to join them. After all, they have paid protection fees. This kind of price is clearly marked , The practice of paying for both money and goods may be much more practical for the residents.

In fact, when Rongbao Matsudaira summoned Kondo recently, he also asked him about the Anpingya, and Kondo told the truth, and then got a reply from Mr. Rongbao, "Really, that's very good".

Although it sounds like admiration for Anpingya’s contribution to the public security of Kyoto, the speaker has no intention but the listener has the heart. Now Kondo is beginning to believe that Ishitani Toya is from a famous family. Considering Matsudaira Nobuhide and others treat him differently, maybe Maybe he was an acquaintance of Mr. Rong Bao?

"Kondo-sensei, you don't have to be depressed. Anpingya has done what they can do, and there are things that only our Shinsengumi can do." Okita said.

"The director is right." Kondo laughed, "We have to work harder, I don't know how A Sui and Shannan are doing in Osaka."

Before the new year was over, the new general Tokugawa Ieshige set off for the second visit to Los Angeles. The Shinsengumi also went to Osaka for security work. Considering the security of Kyoto, it could not be ignored. In the end, Yamanan and Hijikata led some troops to go.

Hearing this topic, Fujido's clear, youthful voice sounded, "Should no one dare to attack the General, right?"

Who knows, upon hearing this sentence, a haze fell on Kondo's face.

"No way, is it really..."

"Hirasuke!" Harada shouted to stop.

"No, it's not to that extent." Kondo took the initiative to save Todo, with a wry smile, "I heard that the Imperial Palace changed the route and date of going to Los Angeles because of the mess with Inilis, I'm just a little worried."

"With Inilis? What's going on?" Nagakura Shinpachi asked.

"It's the aftermath of the raw wheat incident."

Kondo took a look at most of the people who were still in a daze, and had no choice but to explain: "Last year, there was an incident in a place called Namai Village on the outskirts of Yokohama. Four Westerners saw that the guard of honor of the Satsuma feudal lord was not withdrawn." To the side, it was chopped down by Satsuma's samurai, and later Inilis demanded compensation from Satsuma for this, and also bombarded Kagoshima in August."

"However, Satsuma also fired back. I heard that people on both sides died. Satsuma refused to pay compensation, and it has been delayed until now."

"Wait a minute, aren't those Westerners being rude!?" Fujido said angrily.

"That's true, but that Inilisian doesn't know the rules of our country, so it's quite innocent to be chopped off just like that..." Okita said calmly.

"Hey, Chief, which side are you on?" Fujido was depressed.

Okita shrugged, and said indifferently: "Of course it's Kondo-sensei's side."

The topic was thrown back again, and Kondo rubbed his brows troubledly.

"In short, we don't know if there will be any changes in those people. We must be careful and protect Shangluo's Imperial Palace, especially those from Satsuma."

"Oh——!!!" Everyone replied in unison, full of momentum.

------

*Inilis is England.Because I don’t know what Neon called Britain at that time, anyway, I just transliterated it...

*Gosho-sama is the title of the general who conquered barbarians, that is to say, Tokugawa Jiamao

*Shangluo refers to the daimyo's invasion of Kyoto with troops, which is equivalent to the ritual meaning of "aspirations to the Central Plains" by flower growers.It is called so because Kyoto was established according to Luoyang City in the Tang Dynasty, so it is called Shangluo.However, it is used here to indicate that the general Tokugawa Iemo went to Kyoto to meet the emperor at that time. In fact, he brought troops to show off his power. This is the second time he has visited Luo.

In other words, do you feel uncomfortable when you explain a lot in this way? _(:зゝ∠)_

But explaining it in the text is also very strange. If you don’t explain it, you are afraid that the proper nouns will not be understood. It’s so tangled...
