With the first snow falling in Xinnong, it has been more than 40 days since Li Xiao came to Japan in the Warring States period.

The repair of Gaoyuan city began a few days ago. Although the mountain bandits complained for a while that they could not become warriors, they were persuaded by Li Xiao's three inch tongue and suppressed by Yamamoto's force. The mountain bandits finally agreed to participate in the repair of Gaoyuan city. At the same time, Yamamoto also promised to pay them and settle their families.

Since the incident of recruiting mountain bandits, Yamamoto's attitude towards Li Xiao has been a little better. At least he didn't turn his eyes when he met before and didn't even say hello. Well, actually I won't say hello to you now.

This made Li Xiao, who came from China, a country of etiquette, very unhappy.

As the former military division of Takeda Xinxuan, Li Xiao actually wanted to chat with him. Of course, his purpose was to dig up some secrets that the Takeda family could not spread. The content is nothing more than which woman Takeda Xinxuan loved most in his life, whether Takeda Xinxuan really likes to make a foundation, and to what extent Takeda Xinxuan and takasaka Changxin were ambiguous.

Well, Li Xiao never denies that he is a gossip.

However, it's true that Yamamoto's survey assistant has been busy dealing with large and small affairs in Gaoyuan city territory all day and has no leisure to chat with people. In Li Xiao's eyes, this man is purely Zhuge Liang's life. He has done everything, and he is not afraid to turn Takeda shenglai into the second Liu Chan.

Fortunately, Yamamoto's survey assistant has not assigned any tasks to Li Xiao these days.

At present, Li Xiao can finally find time to study his marksmanship and see if he can improve it to the greatest extent to cope with the duel with Shigang Yiyu less than three months later.

In fact, Li Xiao thought that according to the previous strategy of playing Taige, the first choice to learn marksmanship was to go to Nara Dojo to find yinrong, the treasure house.

Yin Rong of the treasure house was instructed by Shangquan Xingang. He was the head of the treasure house of the sub courtyard of Xingfu temple in Nara. As a monk, he was obsessed with martial arts. In addition to Shangquan Xingang, he also worshipped many people as teachers when he was young. Finally, in his middle age, he integrated martial arts and created the ten character marksmanship integrating attack and defense. His marksmanship is the famous treasure house in Japanese history, and has been passed down to today.

In this era, when it comes to swordsmanship, sakurahara can be called the first in Japan, while when it comes to marksmanship, the first throne in Japan belongs to yinrong of the treasure house.

Unfortunately, this plan is unrealistic. Nara can't be reached in a few days. As a minister of Takeda shenglai, Li Xiao can't easily leave Gaoyuan city for too long. Yamamoto will agree to grant a long holiday anyway.

Moreover, yinrong practice in the treasure house was a ten character gun, which was incompatible with Li Xiaoyuan's first shooting method, so Li Xiao cancelled his plan to go to Nara.

However, Li Xiao thought of other ways in an instant. He made his mind on Zhengjun Baoke, who was also Takeda shenglai's minister.

Baoke's family name has existed for hundreds of years as a local family in Xinnong. When Gaoyuan city belonged to Gaoyuan, Baoke Zhengjun and his father Baoke regular were the written ministers of Gaoyuan's master, Gaoyuan Lai Ji.

Therefore, in Xinnong, Baoke family is also a famous family. It is undoubtedly presumptuous to go to ask for advice on marksmanship as an ordinary warrior li Xiao.

Fortunately, Li Xiao got through the joint. The former Sheriff of Gaoyuan Town, Nishimura pingsan, happened to be related to Baoke. Li Xiao met Bao Ke Zhengjun through Hirako Nishimura. His eldest son, Bao Ke Zhengzheng, and his third son, Bao Ke Changyue.

Baoke Zhengzheng was only 20 years old. Shortly after Yuanfu, Li Xiaoxin knew that he was also a fierce general in history. After the destruction of the Takeda family, he fought for the Tokugawa family and granted the total country 25000 stone territory for the Tokugawa family. His younger brother Baoke Changyue was later renamed as katsuyo NETA, and was adopted as an adopted son by katsuyo NETA, one of the four ministers of Takeda. After the death of Katsuhiro NETA in the battle of nagako, he inherited the governor of the Katsuo family.

Li Xiao and Baoke are honest. Baoke Changyue brothers are about the same age. After Li Xiao invited them to the wine house for a few drinks, the three became familiar. After getting closer, Li Xiao mentioned that he had heard a lot about Bao Ke Zhengjun's shooting skills and had been eager to see him.

The two brothers listened to Li Xiao's praise for their father and were happy to introduce Li Xiao. Before coming to the door, Li Xiao also used the gold given by Takeda Xinxuan and bought three quite good Taidao as a gift for Baoke Zhengjun to improve his friendliness.

After receiving the gift, Bao kezhengjun was very happy. He was amazed to hear that Li Xiao had stopped uesuga Qianxin and saved Takeda Xinxuan in the joint war on the island of central Sichuan. Therefore, he also gave Li Xiao a high look and didn't treat him as a light general, so as to treat him as a middle and low-level warrior.

Li Xiao immediately asked Bao Ke Zhengjun for advice on marksmanship. After the two sides had a duel, Li Xiao found that although Bao kezhengjun was over 50, he was old and fierce in his marksmanship, which had been practiced on the battlefield for many years. His son Bao Kezheng and Bao kechangyue were not skilled in their marksmanship, but they were young and energetic.

However, to Li Xiao's great disappointment, although Baoke's father and son are famous for their marksmanship in Xinnong, they did not show a higher strength than themselves in the war with themselves.

On the contrary, after Li Xiao became familiar with the routine of their shooting skills, he could suppress them well.

Of course, Li Xiao's gun skills are passed down from China. After years of polishing, he has eliminated the turnips and preserved the turnips. In terms of gun skills, he is not inferior to any school of gun skills in Japan at this time. He is tall, has long arms, is young and strong, and has long strength. They do not have these two advantages.

Bao Ke Zhengjun or another 20-year-old younger can compete with Li Xiao, but his marksmanship at that time must not be as exquisite as it is now. As if aware of this, Bao kezhengjun and his son admired Li Xiao's marksmanship.

The Japanese especially worship the strong from their bones, and not only worship, but also strive to learn from the strong. At present, Baoke Zhengjun makes Baoke honest. Baoke Changyue's two sons worship Li Xiao as their teacher. Of course, Li Xiao will not refuse, which is also a basis for building a good family relationship in Takeda.

So after Takeda shenglai, Li Xiao came to this troubled world and took two more cheap disciples.

Li Xiao was warmly entertained by Baoke's family. Li Xiao stayed there for three days and talked about shooting. Baoke's father and son all appreciated Li Xiao. Then Li Xiao also mentioned with them the decisive battle with Shigang Yiyu in three months.

These three people have heard of Shigang Yiyu's fame. He is a famous swordsman in Kagoshima and has defeated many famous swordsmen.

As for the Kajima xindangliu who mentioned Suzuki Hara's Bodhisattva, Bao Ke Zhengjun's face was a lot heavier. For Suzuki Hara's Bodhisattva, the first Japanese swordsman, his heart did not need to be described as worship, but to a degree of deep fear.

Even though tsuhara is now a 73 year old man, he is still recognized as the first in Japan in terms of swordsmanship. In his later years, he traveled around Japan to practice martial arts. He followed his disciples and accompanied hundreds of people, just like a famous travel.

Many local celebrities, rich families and military generals worship Zuka Hara as their teacher and hope to get his guidance. Takeda shinxuan also hired Suzuki Hara to guide Takeda's art of war for a period of time, and asked Suzuki Hara to guide his generals' swordsmanship.

Baoke Zhengjun also met once, and he still admires suzuhara's swordsmanship.

Bao Ke Zhengjun also said that he did not have confidence in Li Xiao's shooting skills, but felt that his shooting skills were absolutely the first-class level in Japan. However, Li Xiao's shortcomings were also obvious, that is, he lacked actual combat experience, which was experienced in countless battlefield battles and personal duels.

So finally, Bao kezhengjun said frankly to Li Xiao that he was not optimistic about the competition between Li Xiao and Shigang Yiyu.
