desertion
Early morning of next day、Yoshinobu left Kan-eiji Temple for Mito、a place of his "repentance"．
He was a modest garb and accompanied persons also were a small number.
This was the end of the Tokugawa Shogunate in 270.
At that time、some samurai had gathered to Kan-eiji for guard of Yoshinobu (They called themselves "Shōgitai 彰義隊-Unit of justice").
They escorted Yoshinobu to halfway.
"Defend Taiju-kou (Tokugawa Shogun) from harm."
Their original purpose was achieved by it.
・・・・・・・・・
From around this time、the arrogant behavior that borrowed the authority of the emperor became conspicuous in the new government army.
Of course Edo people had antipathy against it.
By the way, the top of Kan-eiji Temple was customarily a royal family from Kyoto.
And although it is "officially", the head of the new government's Kanto dispatched army was also royalty.
"Top of our side is the Imperial family and top of them is also the Imperial family.
That position is equal."
People with such thoughts gradually gathered at Kan-eiji Temple.
・・・・・・・・・
The surrender of Chiyoda Castle ended peacefully.
But the incident happened on that night.
There was a man in Tokugawa vassal named ”Ōtori Keisuke.”
He was a child of the doctor of Harima (current southwestern part of Hyogo prefecture).
He studied Western science in Osaka and two years ago he became adopte of Tokugawa vassal.
At that time、he was one of the top executives of the Tokugawa army.
He escaped from Edo along with the modern armament troops.
Their numbers was 450 people.
And Tokugawa navy disappeared from the Edo Bay.
・・・・・・・・・
"Reconsideration of the requisition of Tokugawa Navy warships by the imperial court.
We have been pleading for it from before.
But the Imperial Court did not reply to it at all.
Promptly hand over all Tokugawa Navy warships to the government.
And today、this instruction has arrived suddenly to us as strict order.
As result an awkward atmosphere became full inside Tokugawa Navy.
Occurrence of unforeseen circumstances on this stage.
The Imperial Court and the Tokugawa.
I think this is unfortunate for both.
Movement of the fleet from Edo Bay.
We've done this as a precaution.
There is no other intention.
We please hope that the imperial court will understand this as well."
After a while、that message had been received from them.
Naturally、the reply was the same.
・・・・・・・・・
Desertion troops of Tokugawa Army.
However at the moment、urgent task of the new government was it.
They were being gathered in the suburbs of Edo.
As soon as possible we will dispatch troops to all over the Kanto area.
The new government was determined it.
(Their main purpose was the imperial court proclamation of the inauguration of the new Japanese government.)
Satsuma samurai named ”Arima Touta”.
His troop aimed go to Jyoushū (current Gunma prefecture).
"Kondo of Shinsengumi.
He exist in Nagareyama of Shimousa.
(Nagareyama is the northwestern part of Chiba Prefecture.)"
Immediately after starting from Edo、Arima heard this rumor.

Nagareyama is about 20 km northeast of the chiyoda castle."Unknown troop exist surely in Nagareyama.
That number about 200 people."
In response to this report、Arima quickly changed the destination to Nagareyama、pitched a camp there.
”Spread ! Move ahead !”
He ordered so to his troop、firefight began.
”Don't shoot !”
After a while、several people came out from their's defensive、one of them was Kondo.
"My name is O(o)kubo Yamato.
I'm vassal of Tokugawa."
Kondo said to Arima.
But Arima was in Kyoto previously、he knew the face of Kondo.
"The security of this neighborhood has deteriorated very much due to recent disturbance.
We have stationed for protect the security of this area.
At first we did not know you guys is Government troop.
So we attacked you.
Please forgive our misunderstanding."
Kondo continued.
"I see.
However、Okubo san.
You guys attacked the troop of Imperial court.
This is fact.
You must appearance to our military headquarters for it explanation.
Is that okay with that?"
Arima asked.
"Of course."
Kondo replied.
After received permission from Arima、Kondo went back to his defensive position and he accompanied Arima.
"Arrested Kondo."
The new government forces in Edo became thrown into a commotion on that topic.
”My name is Okubo Yamato.”
But Kondo kept saying so.
Ito Kashitaro.
He did factional activities from Shinsengumi、as result he was killed by Shinsengumi.
There was his comrade (former Shinsengumi) in the new government troops of Itabashi (simply put、itabashi is the entrance to the northwest of Edo.).
"He is Kondo."
He affirmed.
