After that, Maeda Toshiie comforted Ina Tadashi a few words and asked him to take charge of her and the clan members, and go back to settle down the family first.
After Ina Chuji left, Murai Nagai finally couldn't help but asked.
"My Lord, do you really want to send Ina Chuji to Echigo to serve His Highness?"
Maeda Toshiie nodded and said.
"His Highness is short of talents in Echigo, and most of the recent ones he has brought are warriors who are good at fighting. The Kanto samurai women are so vulgar, they must be short of people to handle housework."
The head of the village, Yori, hesitated to speak, and Maeda Toshiie did not hide anything from his cronies, so he said.
"I know what you want to say. Your Highness does ignore my Owari Shiba collar. This is normal.
Our territory is only about 10,000 shi, unlike the recent waves with more than 200,000 shi, so it is difficult to help in the Kanto strategy.
But we can still find new ways to recommend government talents so that the Lord will not forget us. "
This topic was too in-depth and the village chief Lai did not dare to take it up. She knew Shiba Yoshigan, and she also knew Maeda Toshiie's thoughts about that person.
So as a close confidant, what can she say? Advise Maeda Toshiie to give up? As soon as he said these words, he was afraid that he would be left idle by Maeda Toshiie first.
Maeda Toshiie is usually a powerful martial artist praised by everyone, who is wise and calm. But as soon as Shiba Yiyin is involved, he immediately becomes paranoid.
For the sake of Shiba Yoshigan, even Oda Nobunaga dared to throw away his face and run away, which is a unique achievement. These days, does anyone in Owari dare to disobey Oda Nobunaga?
The head of the village, Nori, bowed her head and said nothing. She was a die-hard loyalist to the Maeda Toshi family. No matter what the Lord did, she would share weal and woe and follow closely to the end.
Looking out at the late night outside the screen, Maeda Toshiie's drunkenness gradually faded away under the starry sky, but her longing for someone became stronger.
Yiyinjun, do you still remember me?
It doesn't matter if you forget. One day, you will think of me, need me, and beg me to return to the center of the Sibo family to help you solve your problems.
———
Simeon, Sone Castle.
Inaba Yoshichi, Uji family Naomoto's military forces all gathered here.
After Oda Nobunaga sent troops to Nishi-Mino and went north to Inabayama Castle, these Nishi-Mino samurai began to mobilize.
It's not that they want to send troops to help, but they are afraid that Oda Nobunaga will open up a secret path and secretly plot against Chen Cang. They said they were going north, but in fact they turned their guns and went straight down the tributary of the Kiso River to annex their territory.
When Hineno Hiroshi successfully ambushed Oda Nobunaga and retreated from Sumamata Castle, they became even more confused. The two started a military discussion, and all the warriors from Simeon competed to speak.
A stout woman came out of the queue and said.
"The matter is obvious! Oda Nobunaga is finished!
His Highness Isshiki will definitely take this opportunity to drive her back to the south bank of the Kiso River. We won't make a statement at this time. When His Highness Isshiki cleans up, he will teach us a lesson.
I think we should immediately send troops to respond to His Highness Isshiki in exchange for understanding. "
Another Ji warrior sneered.
"Excuse me? Will those people in Dongmeinong let us go?
I leave my words here. Once I finish dealing with His Highness Oda and there are no more foreign troubles, Isshiki Yoshiryu will turn around and deal with us!
Zhu Ji! Even if you kneel, you will die, if you stand, you will die. We should send troops to help His Highness Oda and secure a bright future!
Adding icing on the cake is not as good as providing help when it is timely. This is a good opportunity, don't let yourself go by mistake! "
The two factions of Ji warriors argued endlessly and reached a stalemate. Inaba Ryoshichi and Ujie Naomoto frowned when they heard this, and they also hesitated.
After various families in Simino secretly closed the border and allowed Lord Oda to go to Kitaomi to get married, Isshiki Yoshiryu's attitude towards Simino became increasingly tough.
Mamoru Ando, who bore the brunt of the attack, was under the greatest pressure and has now mobilized his troops to join the command of Oda Nobunaga.
The pressure on other Simino families is also not small, but the problem is that Oda Nobunaga was defeated in one battle, which made the Simino samurai family who were already eager to try suddenly numb and unable to move forward.
No one thought that Oda Nobunaga was so inexperienced!
Even after they sent troops, the Oda family was still defeated. Isshiki Yoshiryu, who has the power of victory, will definitely take the opportunity to turn against him, and the Simino samurai family will be destroyed.
Help Isshiki Yoshiryu, that is slow death. Help Oda Nobunaga, but I'm afraid she won't be able to support Adou. Inaba Yoshimitsu and Ujie Naomoto were in a dilemma and couldn't make up their minds for a while.
At this moment, a Hatamoto came in from outside and spoke softly in Inaba Liangmichi's ear. She looked confused and nodded.
"Invite her in."
Ujiie Naomoto asked.
"Who's coming?"
"Unbreakable light cure."
Both of them were surprised, why is she here?
Fuwa Kojimoto was a close confidant of Isshiki Yoshiryu. Because he secretly approached the Oda family, he was noticed and disgusted by his master.
Although she had reached a tacit understanding with the three people of Simino and watched the battle between the two masters of Owari and Mino, the two sides were not actually close.
Fuwa Koji is known as the fourth person outside Nishi Mino's three people, and his territory is in Fuwa County, which is on the west side of Nishi Mino and adjacent to Omi Province.
As for Inaba Yoshichichi, Ujiie Naomoto, and Ando Mamoru, the territories of the three people in Nishi Mino are all on the east side of Nishi Mino, on the Kiso River tributary plain, which is under the military front of Sumama Castle controlled by the Oda family.
Therefore, the three people at Simeon were very nervous. They gathered their troops in advance and were ready to stand in line at any time.
Fuwa Guangji felt much more calm because of the distance, and could see the situation clearly before making plans. Now that she has joined the two-man army, what changes have occurred?
Fuwa Koji hurriedly walked into the curtain and shouted at the two bosses.
"What are you waiting for? Send troops quickly to rescue His Highness Oda!
I brought my troops here, and we will go to Sumamata Castle to show our loyalty to His Highness Oda and defeat Saito Yoshiryu, who killed his mother and seized the country! "
Inaba Yoshimitsu and Ujiie Naomoto looked at each other with blank expressions on their faces.
Fuwa Koji was stunned and asked.
"You haven't received the summons from Inabayama Castle yet? Don't tell me, you haven't put anyone in."
In the midst of embarrassment, an envoy rushed into the shogunate and started yelling.
"His Royal Highness Isshiki suddenly fell ill and died in Inabayama Castle. Hineno Hiroshi held a meeting in the castle to discuss the matter of surrendering the Oda family!"
Inaba Ryomichi and Ujiie Naomoto stood up together, and Inaba Ryomichi shouted.
"Yoshiryu Saito killed his mother to seize the throne, which is unforgivable! We, the samurai family, uphold justice and must rise up to bring order to the chaos and bring justice to our late master!"
Ujie Naomoto nodded and said.
"Inaba-hime is right!
The daughter of the First Lord, Prince Saito Nobunaga, married His Highness Oda Nobunaga. His Highness Oda is a wise master, and his virtuous reputation spreads far and wide.
I suggest! Who agrees to welcoming the late Lord’s daughter-in-law, His Highness Oda, into Mino? Who objects? "
All the warriors from Simeon looked at me and I looked at you, and they all shouted together.
"A patricide is not worthy of being our lord! We are willing to serve His Highness Oda as our lord!"
The stout woman who spoke for Isshiki Yoshiryu before screamed with extra force. Her face was red, her eyes were so wide that they were about to jump out of her head, and she was hoarse as if she was trying hard to give birth to a child.
Inaba Yoshimitsu, Ujiie Naomoto, and Fuha Mitsuji all nodded, deeply moved by the loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness of the samurai under their command.
After that, all the families under Sone Castle mobilized troops and went to Sumamata Castle to rescue the wise master in their hearts.
