Iga country, Kokaguchi, Maeda interest garrison area.
Nizi Katsuhisa from Beidawa felt tired, and Maeda Rihisa here was a stupid adopted daughter who wanted to spit on her to death.
She had just finished busy with the spring plowing affairs, and after learning about Maeda's plan, she rushed over quickly, shouted back, and cursed Maeda bloody.
"What on earth are you thinking! It's either a lack of food or a lack of weapons. How could you come up with the stupid idea of killing, burning, and looting!
You are seeking death!
Who are the Jiahe people? Do you really think you can force them to come out and beat you?
They are ninjas! Ninja! This group of people are not good at martial arts, and their military formation is poor. They can stand in Omi, a place of four battles, only by being able to endure.
It is never too late for a woman to take revenge in ten years. She can only be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days!
You have driven people into a panic, and after decades of assassination, you and your descendants will all be killed! Unfilial daughter!
I also expect you to carry forward my branch of the Maeda family, but it would be better for you to just go on the road to extinct heirs! "
Maeda was scolded by her adoptive mother so that she did not dare to raise her head. She also knew that her idea was a bit impulsive, but the supplies were not in order and it was difficult to make a living without rice.
retorted.
“The Omi war is of great concern to the overall situation.
The Lord has traveled far away to Kanto and entrusted me with the security of several nearby territories. I must show military prowess in a battle.
Not to mention the existence of the Kitanomi Asai family, it is related to the strategic layout of the Lord on the Hokuriku Road front line. Even if it is just to prevent the Rokkaku family from becoming powerful, it cannot be ignored.
After I left home, people inside and outside the house were ready to take action. Mother, I must fight this battle well to scare these bastards. "
Maeda Rihisa sighed.
She was opposed to Shiba Yiyin's departure to Kanto. The master was eager to leave before the recent territory was digested, which was inappropriate.
But now it was no different than when she was at Owari. The status gap between her and Yoshihiro Shiba was too big. Talking casually would affect Maeda's status and future in the family, so she had to be careful.
She also knew that Maeda's interests were not easy to come by. Even with a bad hand and a domineering power that could sweep through thousands of armies, everyone would be driven crazy.
She softened her tone and said.
"There will always be a way. I have brought so many Owari warriors here, and they all have connections with Owari.
The Owari fields are fertile and the grain yield is high. With the prestige of the Maeda family in recent years, it is not difficult for me to get some grain on credit.
I can contact various companies and transport grain from northern Ise to Iga, and it won’t take much time.
As for armaments, look to the Lee family to find a solution. "
"no!"
Hearing that his mother was looking for Maeda Toshiie, Maeda Toshiie refused without even thinking about it.
Maeda Riku was stunned for a moment and then advised.
"After all, they are all from the same bloodline and are both Spo's retainers. The Lee family will definitely help."
Maeda was flustered and shook his head.
"She took away your position as the young master of the Maeda family and caused you to almost leave Kyoto alone. I have severed all ties with her and will not ask for help from her."
Maeda Riku narrowed his eyes.
"You are your elder no matter what, why do you speak without honorifics and look uneducated!
It’s not Toshiie’s fault, it was His Highness Oda’s order, and she couldn’t refuse.
What's more, now, she and I have divided our family fortune and connections in Huangzi City, leaving my mother with an empty hometown.
At this moment, maybe my mother is scolding us two unfilial daughters. Neither she nor I is a good person. "
Maeda Rihisa knew that his daughter didn't mean what she said, but he still tried to persuade her.
However, Maeda was stubborn and insisted.
"Anyway, I have no friendship with her anymore. What kind of elder is she? I don't recognize her. How can there be such an elder!"
Maeda Riku sneered and said.
"I know why you hate her. Don't always use me as a cover. Isn't it just her trying to steal a man from you?"
Maeda was panicked and blushed, shouting.
"Mother, be careful! Don't insult the Lord!"
Maeda Riku was already angry about this matter. At this time, mother and daughter were alone, and there was nothing else they could say, so he cursed.
"What? Did I tell you wrongly? Do you know how to argue now?
When you and your master went to Luo, I reminded you to act earlier, act earlier.
And you? Pretend to be innocent!
Now there are so many people fighting for it, and I feel panicky, and I don’t like anyone anymore.
What did you do early? "
Maeda was speechless, and Maeda Riku pointed his finger at her forehead, poking her hard and scolding her.
"What's wrong with the Li family? You can like it, but others can't?
She was an upright person who gained her territory through military merit. I saw in Tongzhajian that the knowledge and deeds she had gained with her life were dedicated to her master in the blink of an eye.
It is an upright act for the Lee family to exchange their lives for the opportunity to marry into the family, so why can't it be done?
You said you were protecting the Lord for the sake of the Lord, but when something happened, you rejected the help of Lijia.
What you mean is that you are afraid that others will take away your credit, your master, and your sweetheart! "
Maeda Yoshi opened his mother's fingers and said angrily.
"That's right! That's how I am! I just love him! No one can take it away from him!"
Maeda Riku looked at her flushed face, held her cheeks with his hands, and sighed.
"Chi'er, Chi'er, do you know?
Mitsuhide Akechi of Kyoto took over the imperial sword. Your lord has technically married into the royal family. He is already the royal family. "
Maeda rolled his eyes and said.
"Of course I know, I reported this information to you after reading it.
so what?
The Lord was in danger in Vietnam, so he put the Savior first before considering other things. Although I dislike Akechi Mitsuhide, I supported her in doing so.
The Lord will not give in. I follow him all the way and understand his thoughts best.
He was responsible for reviving the Shiba family, so how could he possibly marry into the Imperial Palace.
What will happen to the Spo family in the future? How could the Ashikaga family be so easy to get along with?
Don't just swallow people, still worry about the family fortune, and end up with both people and wealth, it is really shameless. "
Maeda Rihisa cursed.
"Shut up, slander the general, don't you want to live anymore?"
Maeda raised his chin stubbornly and said.
"I will only be loyal to the Lord in this life, General, hum..."
Maeda Riku shook his head helplessly.
"You have such a temper. If I die one day, I really don't know what will happen to you."
Maeda smiled.
"So you have to live a long time and protect me all my life."
Maeda Riku laughed and cursed.
"Nonsense, you will never grow up in your lifetime."
She softened her words for a few words and wanted to persuade her again, but at this time, rapid footsteps came from outside.
Looking back, Otani Yoshitsugi rushed into the Chinese shogunate with a face of surprise.
"Mr. Maeda, good news! The supplies have caught up!"
Maeda said in surprise.
"Master Nizi Shengjiu is very capable. How many of you have come?"
Otani Yoshitsugi smiled.
"It is thanks to the efforts of Sakai Port Takata Yono-sama that there is a steady stream of food, grass and weapons, which have been shipped from Beidawa.
Spring plowing is almost over. Peasants and soldiers from various places have been mobilized to assist with transportation. In a few days, the warehouses will be full, enough for us to launch an offensive. "
Maeda's interests took action.
"good!"
She was secretly relieved that she didn't have to be nagged by her mother and went to seek help from the annoying Maeda Toshiie.
She has complicated feelings about this fourth aunt.
I admire her character, wisdom and military strategy, but I am afraid that she will take away his master because of her excellence. I can only grit my teeth and strive to be better than her.
———
Owari Province, a section of Mino in the west of the Kiso River.
To the north of the Kiso River, there are several rivers. The dense shrubs and hills along the rivers obscure the sight of passers-by.
Behind a hidden hill, a group of wild warriors were laughing around a campfire.
After surviving the cold winter, the warm spring and the gradually rising temperatures made these ragged and hungry wild warriors active again.
The leader of this group is a handsome warrior with slender and powerful limbs. He looks to be in his early twenties, and his features and eyes are full of the fierce and cunning unique to wild warriors.
"Boss, someone is looking for you, saying they are from Owari."
The leader looked back.
I saw a short girl who was as delicate as a man, dressed in a Ji Samurai costume, but shaking her head, she followed the carefree wild samurai over.
She frowned and asked.
"Who are you? I don't know you."
The man bowed and said.
"My dear Kinoshita Hideyoshi, you are a hero who travels across both sides of the Kiso River, Lord Hachisuka Koroku."
Haizuka Xiaoliu laughed loudly and cursed to the left and right.
“Where did this little baby come from and still call me an adult?
I'm so fucking devastated that there are fools calling me and other wild samurai "sir" these days. "
The wild samurai burst into laughter, leaving Kinoshita Hideyoshi stunned on the spot, unable to advance or retreat.
Hachisuka Koroku questioned her.
"You little dwarf wearing a monkey crown, this outfit doesn't suit you. You don't look like Warrior Ji.
Tell me, where did you know my whereabouts? looking for me? "
Kinoshita Hideyoshi said tremblingly.
"I am an official under the command of Niwa Nagahide-sama of the Oda family. I spent a lot of money to obtain the location of Lord Hazusuka, just to join hands with him to make a big deal."
Haizuka Xiaoliu raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Oh? What a big deal, let's talk about it."
