601 Episode 600: When the Bell Rings

Side: a long time ago

The calendar went into March.

As of now, the Oda family had begun to plan and prepare for flower viewing, which was becoming a classic event in spring.

There are a lot of things to decide where and on how much scale to do, what to do with the screening and cost of participating stalls, etc., with reference to last year's floristry and martial arts competitions.

It becomes the policy of the Oda family to keep an eye on the movements of Imagawa and Takeda in the east and Asai and Hexagon and Asakura in the west, while not changing the routine as much as possible.

"That's spectacular."

On this day, Tsingzhou Castle brings together many people from the Oda family ministers and the Saito family of Mino. Shin-soo doesn't seem to be satisfied with the way people are deliberately stunned, and he looks up with a satisfied grin.

It's finally finished. Qingzhou Castle Tenshi and the clock tower. It is not the speed of construction of a daimyo. It's an early completion like a state business.

There are several reasons. We also advised that Tsushima and Hotfields had made it possible to procure materials and shorten the construction period. The rest, such as the processing of wood, which is not particularly confidential, was also pre-processed at a timber storage site under Inuyama Castle, which was previously under preparation until the other day.

Tensho and the clock tower were built by the carpenters of Oda territory, mainly the palace carpenters of Tsushima and Hota. The biggest reason for the fact that the construction period was short would be in their motivation.

It can be said to the Oda Territorial Instructor in general, but in the sense of motivation and aggressiveness, it would be the best in Japan in this era. It may be quite unusual in this day and age for everyone to work actively.

Heavenly Guard is a white lacquered wall in five layers, which gives it an orthodox shape that is often seen in the original world.

It's a time when there's not even a heavenly guard yet, so there's no need to be surprised, it would be a fascinating heavenly guard itself. Regardless, there's more to defense than fools can do.

"White Heavenly Guard."

"Oh yeah. Hey there."

"It needs to be maintained regularly, though. I thought it might be white to drain the liver."

I'm looking right at the city being held by Nobunaga and Nobunaga, but they're looking at a beautiful white lacquered wall. The roof of Heavenly Guard has a proper golden twist, Shichako. When I say "Ozhang," I mean "Ozhang." It's an image of Nagoya Castle in the original world.

The clock tower is brick-built and has a large dial and a bell that informs the hour. The design is not that elaborate. Also considering the earthquake resistance, there are things that Tsingzhou, with weak ground, can and cannot do with the technology of this era.

The clock itself is the same Japanese-style clock that was previously given to Shin-soo and becomes an indefinite time-style clock that is the time of the Japanese books of this era.

Yeah, well, it also counteracts lightning, which is the big enemy of the building in this hand. Iron minefield needles were installed on both sides, but no detailed explanation has yet been provided. In time, Asha will teach you at school.

"Kitaro, that's a great castle."

"Yes!"

Oh, Kitaro, who has been watching the construction of Heavenly Guard and the Clock Tower, is also watching along with his parents, Yoshiryu and Omi. I feel that Omi is more relieved by the difference with the Asai family.

"A castle as stunning as this can be found in Kichinai and the capital of Kyoto. It looks more beautiful than anything."

The guardian, Mr. Sebastian, seems happy with the new Temple of Heaven. Well, it's a shame that Yoshitoshi and Shinsu live here and not enough to drain their liver because they see the heavenly guard and clock tower under construction every day.

"It's time to ring the bell"

Shinsu also behaved alcoholically to celebrate the unveiling, so at some point it was as lively as a banquet or festival, but Elle, who had been drinking with me, told me it was time for the clock tower bell to ring.

"This is... It's nothing like the sound of a temple bell."

"You're a beautiful fart!

When the sound of colors, colors, and beautiful bells like churches in the West rings, the hands of all of you who were busily drinking stop and gaze gathers in the clock tower.

As it stands, the clerk rings the bell when it's time to check the clock. I also thought about automation. First of all, the manpower was sufficient.

It was hard just to install a watch with a large dial that looked on all sides. All the parts were transported by ship and the installation was also carried out with our bioroids and disguised robots. The artisans from the industrial village have been pleading for a tour of the installation, so I allowed them a tour, though.

The automation of the bell itself is taken into account at the design point of the clock tower. In the meantime, you can use it manually and see how it goes and automate it.

Maintenance is tough. For this reason, it is also an idea to have bioroids and camouflage robots reside in Qingzhou, so it would be a good idea to teach the craftsmen of industrial villages about clock-related techniques and the techniques of bell automation before installing them.

"That's a good tone."

"Yeah, you are. I'm glad I made it."

When I heard the bell, Elle was holding her hand like she was going to stop by me softly. This heavenly guard and clock tower may remain in future generations if handled well.

In a changing world, you must keep an eye on many people unchanged.

If one day we are to be said to be a symbol of peace, all of you who are here now and those who have made it will be happy.

Perhaps Elle sees this heavenly guard and clock tower figure that remains in a town that has developed like the original world.

Starting tomorrow, a tour of the inhabitants is also scheduled. I'm planning on allowing someone with a certain identity to enter the castle and visit the Heavenly Guard and the Clock Tower.

Oda territory residents have often moved around the territory at martial arts and fireworks games, but I want this to be one of them again.

If there was any awareness that I was a resident of the same Oda, it would reduce the quarrel between village units.

Oh, the children of Yoshida-san and the Oda clan are rushing over to the clock tower and Tenguchi. Of course, Kitaro ran away. Each nanny or accompanying person rushes after them. Looks like the children will be the first to visit the Heavenly Guard and the Clock Tower.

It was really from your in-laws in relation to your identity.

This kind of care is really amazing. They'll all be good memories. I have to do my best to make sure these kids don't get into a fight.

Twenty years of astronomy, March 1. Tsingzhou Castle Tenshi and the clock tower are completed in the Oda Unified Book. With this, it is believed that the renovation of Qingzhou Castle during the Astronomical Year was completed.

The designer is Daiji Kuyuan El, and it will be a state-of-the-art castle at the time, taking into account the operation of artillery and golden artillery, which were the latest weapons, while also incorporating preparations for enemy artillery.

With its authentic stone walls and lacquered walls, Qingzhou Castle is perfect as a castle to charm and a castle to live in, and is still loved by many today as one of the famous castles of the wartime.

As a castle, there is also an assessment that it is not necessarily difficult to defeat, and some scholars, even in modern times, question it, but in the first place, Cage Castle is hardly taken into account, and it becomes common to say that it is a castle that fits the reality of the Oda family, which attaches importance to commerce and the rule of its inhabitants.

Shinshu, who didn't really like caged castles in the castle because of the land pattern Ozhang, has a record that he wasn't very motivated initially, but tells him that he accepted the suggestion that Ichima and El made to Qingzhou that the castle would be the symbol of Oda.

It should also be noted that the Tsingzhou Castle Tenshi and the clock tower are also equipped with lightning rods, which show that the Kuyuan family has had a certain understanding of the nature of thunder since this era.

The influence of this Qingzhou Castle spread not only to the Oda family but also to countries at once. I tell them that the great names everywhere wanted to create a castle more luxurious and overwhelming than Qingzhou Castle as a symbol of power, but most of the great names seemed to have had to be cut off from the cost and lack of skill.

However, it is also said that the form of Ishigaki and Tenshi was established by this Tsingzhou Castle, and there are still many architectures called the Tsingzhou style.

With regard to Qingzhou Castle Tenshi and the clock tower, it has been a national treasure almost as it existed at the time, despite repeated repairs due to several natural disasters and so on.

In particular, the bells of the Qingzhou Castle Clock Tower are still in active operation today, informing people of the hour in a tone unchanged from the warring world.
