Oda Nobunaga in Sumamata Castle didn't know that he had countless loyal Minoh warriors at his disposal.
She was having a secret conversation with Ikeda Tsuneaki indoors, with a crumpled letter in her hand and a sneer on her face.
"The handwriting is indeed Ando Mamoru's personal handwriting. This fool is really unreliable."
Ikeda Hengxing said angrily.
"After His Highness gave the order, I kept an eye on her camp.
The next night someone sneaked out of the city, but I sent someone to follow him far away before intercepting him to avoid being noticed by her.
This is a letter found from the emissary. Most likely he wanted to find the Isshiki Yoshiryu army and present the letter.
What a perfect combination of inside and outside! What a great person who sacrifices his merits for his crime!
Your Highness, what should we do next? "
Oda Nobunaga stared at the letter in his hand coldly, murderous intent gradually revealed on his face.
"Now the troops in the city are disorganized and their morale is low. We cannot leave this scourge behind, you..."
Before she finished speaking, there was a rapid knock on the door from outside. Oda Nobunaga was upset and cursed.
"BaGeYaLu! I told you not to disturb me! Who is it!"
Takigawa Kazuki's voice came from outside the door, and he couldn't restrain his joy even though he was cautious.
"Your Highness, there is an urgent military situation."
Takigawa Kazumasu is Ikeda Hengxing's deputy, and he is also the leader of Oda Nobunaga's mother-in-law.
Ikeda Hengxing opened the door, Oda Nobunaga strode out and asked.
"What's up?"
Takigawa Kazumas couldn't hide his excitement, he held the military information letter in his hands and said.
"Your Highness, Kaneyama Castle has been captured."
"What!"
Oda Nobunaga took the military information and looked at it carefully, and said happily.
"Okay, okay, Quan Liu is indeed the most powerful general of our Oda family."
Although the war in West Meion was unfavorable, East Meion opened a gap. There was no light in the west but light in the east, but the Oda family still had the upper hand.
As long as Oda Nobunaga can defend Sumamata Castle, the Mino strategy will have taken another step forward, and it will just be a waste of time.
Oda Nobunaga smiled, turned around and was about to finish his previous words to Ikeda Tsuneaki and take the life of Ando Mamoru.
At this moment, there were hurried footsteps outside, and Sen Kecheng rushed in. She said without bothering to salute.
"Your Highness, the Simeon troops have descended from the city, with no less than fifteen troops in reserve. They say they are raising the flag to attack the matricide Saito Yoshiryu, and they want to serve you as the master.
Go and have a look! "
Not to mention that Oda Nobunaga was confused, Mori Katsunari himself was also confused. The Nishimino samurai family has always had an ambiguous attitude. They don't agree or refuse, but they just hang on to the sincerity of the Oda family.
Now, the flag was suddenly so clear that people voted for it, which made people confused.
Several people were eager to go to the top of the city. As soon as they arrived at the city, there was another noise, and Oda Nobunaga helplessly shouted.
"what happened again!"
She was so dizzy with all kinds of news today that she couldn't figure out the situation for a while.
Hidetaka Kawajiri on the top of the city had a face of surprise and bowed to Oda Nobunaga.
"Your Highness! Hinano Hiroshi sent an envoy to discuss the surrender. Inabayama Castle is going to surrender! Isshiki Yoshiryu is dead!
The envoy was at the bottom of the city, asking for the hanging basket to pull her up to the top of the city. "
Oda Nobunaga was stunned for a long time, then silently tore into pieces the letter of collaboration with Ando Mamoru in his hand. The scraps of paper were scattered in the air and carried away by the wind.
She suppressed her excitement and turned back to Ikeda Hengxing in a low voice.
"Kill Ando Mamoru's emissaries, clean them up from beginning to end, and leave no traces.
Don't touch her yet, lest the Mino warriors who come to join me misunderstand that I am killing the donkey and spoil the overall situation. "
Ikeda Hengxing nodded in agreement, and Oda Nobunaga finally couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar.
Even the sky is helping me! I am indeed a woman destined to become a world-famous woman!
Although Mino has not yet been pacified, Oda Nobunaga has never been so confident. He is confident that the world will belong to him sooner or later!
———
While the battle on Kawanaka Island was fierce, all parties in Meinong were fighting secretly. Jinji, which had not seen peace for a long time, ushered in a rare calm.
The Miyoshi family and the Rokkaku family are busy fighting among themselves. Without these two families, how could there be chaos in recent days?
Ashikaga Yoshiteru in Kyoto took the opportunity to regroup and press forward step by step, gradually shrinking the power in the hands of the shogunate.
At this moment when the samurai families in Kyoto were eagerly anticipating the resurgence of the Ashikaga family, some people were secretly frowning.
Kyoto, Shiba Residence, Akechi Mitsuhide's inner room.
Fujibayashi Anzu lay on the ground waiting for orders, Akechi Mitsuhide looked at the information with an unhappy face. She asked, rubbing her brow with her right middle finger.
"No chance at all?"
"Hi! Mr. Nizi is very strict in internal management, and no one dares to talk nonsense.
I reluctantly provoked three or two people, but I was reported and the Yagyu group immediately dispatched. The main culprit was beheaded in public display, and the remaining culprits committed seppuku to apologize. "
Akechi Mitsuhide raised his head and took a long breath and sighed.
"Ni Ziji, you are really embarrassing me."
Fujibayashi Xing was below, already sweating profusely. She invited herself into the urn and became a pawn in Akechi Mitsuhide's hands.
Fujibayashi was responsible for the intelligence on the Central Team, but he didn't know that his sister had fallen into hell and was unable to extricate herself.
Akechi Mitsuhide keeps giving Fujibayashi some dirty work, from shallow to deep, and now it has developed to sowing relationships among various families in the Shiba collar in recent years.
Fujibayashi Anzu was horrified and didn't know what the purpose of Akechi Mitsuhide's actions was.
But once her actions of sowing dissension are exposed, she will die and the whole family will suffer. In desperation, he can only be manipulated by Akechi Mitsuhide and go all the way to darkness.
Akechi Mitsuhide didn't care about the chess piece's thoughts. She was just worried that Nizi Katsuhisa's tactics would make her internal provocation strategy fail.
Time waits for no one, and the shogun has gradually taken over the power of the shogunate. The Ashikaga family is physically strong, and Ashikaga Yoshiteru's attitude is getting tougher and tougher.
The internal strife between the Rokkaku family and the Miyoshi family is becoming more and more intense, but Mitsuhide Akechi has been unable to detonate the internal conflicts in the Shibo region in recent years and keep up with them.
The interests of Takada Harano and Maeda are not good, and their responsibilities are completely opposite, and they look down on each other.
Logically speaking, this provocation couldn't be simpler. The Wu family looks down on Shang Fengxing, who can explode with just a spark.
But Nizi Katsuhisa insisted on using Yagyu Munenuki's eyes to pay the Yagyu-gumi, suppressing the family without any sparks, which stumped Akechi Mitsuhide.
There is no trouble within the Shiba family, and in the eyes of outsiders, they are a powerful samurai family, enough to unite the powerful local factions of the shogunate such as Hosokawa Hatakeyama Mibuchi.
Akechi Mitsuhide needed the Shiba family to reveal their weaknesses, and the local powerful factions in the shogunate to have their own agendas, in order to seduce the general to go further.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru has a tough personality. This passionate father-in-law has no room for disgrace in his eyes, and he has long been resentful of the Ashikaga family's lack of power.
The two pillars of the shogunate, she now suppresses the shogunate faction. If she sees the opportunity to overwhelm the local powerful faction, she will truly become a powerful general who sticks to her word.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru will never miss this opportunity.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that civil strife between the Rokkaku family and the Miyoshi family is inevitable.
When the two families are weakened and the shogunate becomes dominant, what will Ashikaga Yoshiteru, the passionate prince, do?
