Since the day when the samurai began to have the right to control the world, the struggle for power and bloody battles between the samurai family, especially between the brothers of the same generation, was destined to become the norm.

During the Heiankyo period, Minamoto Yoshitomo (the father of Minamoto Yoritomo) ordered his son Evil Gentai Yoshihei to kill his younger brother Minamoto Yoshiken (father of Kiso Yoshinaka) in order to compete for the dominance of the Genji clan in the Kanto region; In the early days of the Muromachi shogunate, the first shogun Ashikaga Takashi killed his younger brother Ashikaga Naoyoshi and his eldest son Ashikaga Naoto in order to take sole control of the shogunate. As for the Hundred Years Warring States Period, which was known as the shining stars that began with the Onin Rebellion, there were countless scenes of such power struggles between the same clans, as many as the stars in the sky.

Not to mention the ordinary samurai who are not obvious, even the Oda family, Uesugi and Date and even the Toyotomi family, which died in the second generation, have all had the tragedy of cannibalism. Because of this, although the people of the samurai family attach importance to the love of brothers, if they kill each other, they are just idle, and there are some crazy samurai family heads who deliberately provoke the fight between their sons in order to choose the strongest heir.

Therefore, instead of restricting the fight between Nobuya Ohno and Nobuthira Ohno, the fight between Nobuthiro Ohno and Nobuthira Ohno has certain expectations, and perhaps the talents of the two of them will be shown through the struggle of life and death. However, the samurai have always admired strength and despised conspiracy, and it would be shameful for anyone to hope that they would achieve their goals through intrigues. Therefore, Ohno Nobunobu was very annoyed by the admonition of his eldest son, Nobuya Ohno, which in his opinion was a symbol of Nobuyoshi Ohno's lack of ability, talent and even courage.

At this moment, the Ohno clan is in the main military tent. Nobuya Ohno is bowing to the ground with both hands and kowtowing his head to the ground in an extremely solemn way of kneeling to his father Ohno Heinobu to express his innocence, but Ohno Heinobu ignores this and just keeps him kneeling like that.

At this time, the generals who were qualified to enter the military tent of the Ono clan's main camp had already been sent out by Ohno Heinobu, so the father and son of Ohno Hinobu and Nobura Ohno, who remained in the tent of the main camp, fell into a heavy silence for a while.

After a long time, Xu Ohno Heinobu felt that his eldest son Ohno Nobusha was almost kneeling, and he kicked the kneeling Ohno Nobusa to the ground, and then began to punch and kick him without saying a word.

The father of the martial family has always beaten his son as usual and irresistible, and he does not leave any room for him to be treated as an enemy. However, Nobuya Ohno, who felt weak-hearted, naturally did not dare to dodge, and after he was kicked down, he quickly got up and knelt down to endure the punitive beating of Ohno Pingnobu.

After about a quarter of an hour, Ohno either felt that the punishment was enough or was tired before he stopped and said, "Do you know what is wrong with you because my father has punished you like this?"

Know what's wrong with you? Or do you know it's wrong? This is a question that even the wisest man in the world cannot answer, because even the questioner himself has no definite answer in mind.

Of course, they don't actually need the person being questioned to really answer one, two, or three, and the inquiry is just to have an excuse to admonish the other party. So it doesn't matter if you answer or if you answer smartly, you will inevitably be reprimanded in the end. Sometimes it's better not to answer than to answer, because your answer will basically be perceived as a provocation. This is one of the most popular means of dominating the superiors, and they can judge whether you are respectful or not by your choices. It's best not to answer, the second best is to admit mistakes, and if you refute, then you can only ask for more blessings.

Ohno Nobu had asked Nobuya Ohno the same question as Nobuthira Ohno in the past, but it didn't matter what was involved, so they dealt with it and everything was fine. But today's situation is different, and Nobuyo Ohno understands that his father, Ohno Hiranobu, is really dissatisfied with himself. If he answered incorrectly this time, he really couldn't do it easily, so Nobuya Ohno didn't know about his father's inquiry, and just knelt down and lowered his head to show his deference.

Sure enough, Nobuya Ohno's deference made Ohno Heinobu very satisfied. After that, he said with a slight expression: "Do you think that the news of your dispute with Shinhei is really ignorant of the father? Ridiculous! Your every move is under the control of your Father. But it's nothing to fight, and it's up to me to be the head of the Ohno family for my father. As a samurai, you have to fight for whatever you want, and you have to fight bloody battles with enemies with samurai swords, spears, and fast horses to build merit. It doesn't matter how you fight with Shinpei, but if you want to use intrigue and intrigue as shady means, then don't blame your father for being unfair. ”

"Haha. His father's teachings Nobuya must have been taken to heart, and in the future, Nobuya will definitely use his exploits to win the position of head of his family. ”

Father Ohno Pingxin said so heartily that Nobuya Ohno understood that he had finally passed this level, and while secretly breathing a sigh of relief, he didn't dare to relax, and hurriedly admitted to making up for it.

"It would be nice if you could think like that!" Now that it was wartime, Ohno Heinobu didn't want to dwell too much on this matter, so he just mentioned a few words from Ohno Nobuyo.

However, thinking that he still needs to rely more on his eldest son Nobushi in the future, Ohno Heinobu comforted him and said: "Indeed, my father had intended you to become the heir of the Ohno family directly, and you are the eldest son of the family, and you have been in charge of Ohno Castle for many years instead of your father, and you have been able to take this position for many years." If the family is still as content as before, then the father will inevitably inherit the Ohno family from you, as he had previously planned.

But now it's different from the past, and now that the family has the heart to compete for hegemony and plot to loosen up, then it has to be cautious about the choice of the successor as the father. This is indeed a bit unfair to you, but all this is for the sake of our Ono clan's family business, if our Ono clan can get what we want this time, then even if you can't inherit the Ohno family, isn't it better than the old family?

Furthermore, if you really have the talent to be the head of the Ohno family, how can your father not let you succeed to the position of head of the family? Shinra! If you want to inherit the position of the head of the Ohno family, then show it to your father, and prove that you really have the talent to lead the Ohno family. ”

"Father's heart, Nobuya understands, and in the future, Nobuya will definitely put the great cause of his family first, and spare no effort for the glory of the Great Wild Family." Nobuya Ohno seemed to be touched by Ohno's words, and swore to him extremely firmly.

"Then you will be relieved to be a father, and you should go and garrison the west according to your father's orders."

"Haha, Nobuya retired."

Soon Nobuya Ohno led his troops to the west of Miki Castle with Jiro Fujiki.
