Sabei, who was resting in the camp, hurriedly put on his coat and walked out of the temple where he was staying when he learned that Kanhara Yasumasa had come to visit him overnight.

Kanhara Yasumasa saw that Sabei came out quickly, thinking that Sabei was waiting for the matter to reach Tokugawa Ieyasu's ears, and relying on Tokugawa Ieyasu's power to make his own decisions. So when Sabei came to him, Yasumasa Kamihara took Sabei's arm and said, "Sabei, don't worry, I will definitely ask the lord to give you justice!" ”

After hearing this, Sabei was stunned for a moment, and then said to Kamihara Yasumasa: "Koheita, I don't know if I visited overnight, but Tokugawa-sama is going to send troops?" ”

Yasumasa Kamihara shook his head in embarrassment, and then said to Sabei: "The lord heard that there is some misunderstanding between you, and I want to come forward to clear up the misunderstanding for you before sending troops, so that you can work together with your family to attack the Takeda Army!" ”

After hearing this, Sabei hesitated for a moment, and then said to Kamihara Yasumasa, "These things are not what everyone sees, but it is true that we need to inform everyone of some things through the mouth of Lord Mikawa. Sabei paused, took his saber from the hand of Sakaki Heiji behind him, and said to Yasumasa Kamihara, "I will also go to Hamamatsu Castle with Koheita." ”

Seeing this, the right Ichisuke also wanted to go with the Sabei guard, but was stopped by the Sabei and said: "The main general will go out of the camp at night, which is not conducive to the stability of the army's morale, you take the attendants and the person in charge of the guard on duty with the right guard to join the guard, and closely follow the outside of the temple to guard." Sabei, who had finished arranging his clothes, said to Yasumasa Kamihara: "Let's go!" ”

Seeing this, Yasumasa Kamihara nodded at Sabei, and then left with Sabei.

After Sabei left, Ichisuke nodded to Akijiro Fushiba, and scattered to the outskirts of the lodging place with a dozen of his attendants, while Akijiro Fushiba led his retainers around the camp to guard against possible camp roars.

After inviting the four generals of Oda to the castle hall, Yasumasa Kamihara reported to Tokugawa Ieyasu in the tea room, and then retreated behind Ishikawa Shumasa.

The four generals of Oda, who did not communicate along the way, also sat down after Tokugawa Ieyasu's polite words. After looking up at Tokugawa Ieyasu, Sakuma Nobumori sighed and said: "Lord Mikawa, you shouldn't meddle in this matter, although you are very worried about my Oda army, but you also know the temper of the lord, and I, the general general, are still here!" ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu frowned when he heard this, and then picked up the tea in his hand and began to stir the tea in the tea bowl.

Sakuma Nobumori only chuckled when he saw Tokugawa Ieyasu's ignorance, and then asked Sabei and Lin Xiuzhen behind him, "Why are you two drawing swords against each other in the army?" ”

After hearing this, Sabei looked up at Sakuma Nobumori in front of him, and then lowered his head and said, "The two of us..."

Just when Sabei wanted to drag out the script that had been arranged in his heart, Lin Xiuzhen directly interrupted Sabei, looked up and said to Sakuma Nobumori: "Captain Saemon, you have been making frequent faint moves recently, and I don't worry about entrusting your subordinates to you, so I am ready to join Sabei and act separately from you, but you also know, I just can't understand now, why doesn't someone like Sabei have the ambition to match his ability?" ”

Saying that, Lin Xiuzhen looked at Sabei with a smile and said, "Is it Sabei that you are hiding too deeply, or am I really wrong...?" ”

"Shut up!" Sakuma Nobumori got up and cut off Lin Xiuzhen, who was looking at Sabei, and then said to Tokugawa Ieyasu, who pushed the matcha in front of Ishikawa Shumasa, "Lord Mikawa, I'm going to take Sabei and Sado Mamoru back!" ”

At this time, the flat hand Fanxiu also got up and said to Tokugawa Ieyasu: "Mikawa Temple, this matter is not easy to discuss, and I hope Mikawa Hall will understand!" ”

After hearing this, Tokugawa Ieyasu raised his head and glanced at the four people in front of him, and then said with a smile: "Each of you has your own plans, but I will send troops at any time in the next two days, and it is not your intention to see that my family is conquered by Takeda; In that case, I hope that you will put down the mustard and face the enemy together with your family. ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiuzhen raised her head and said to Tokugawa Ieyasu: "Lord Mikawa, it is precisely because of Lord Sakuma's recent faint moves that I want to unite with Sabei for the sake of my family's military situation, but Sabei has another plan in his heart and is unwilling to unite with me!" ”

Sabei looked at Lin Xiuzhen in front of him, and finally spoke: "Sado Mamoru, you don't have to set yourself too high, if you have no selfish intentions, why do you think about how to assist Sakuma-sama to make the right choice, but think about uniting me with a 'land' with only five hundred troops?" It's nothing more than that I like that my 500 troops are all elite, but in fact, Sado Mamoru is not the first to win over! ”

Lin Xiuzhen smiled after hearing this and said, "Obviously, I have failed. ”

Things have come to this point, Sabei is really a headache, Tokugawa Ieyasu will definitely write to inform Oda Nobunaga later, and he who is involved in this matter will definitely register in front of Oda Nobunaga again.

Thinking of this, Sabei bowed his head and said to Tokugawa Ieyasu, who took the tea bowl back: "Mikawaden, in fact, this matter is quite simple, the lord asked me to obey the command of Mikawaden, Mikawaden only needs to temporarily separate the military momentum of Lord Lin Xiuzhen from our army, and as the traveling position of Oda's military posture obeys the orders of Mikawaden, we will continue to exist as the main force of Oda's army." ”

Everyone listened to Sabei's words, and Sakuma Nobumori's face finally put a smile on his face, and the flat hand fan Xiu also seemed to be relieved; And Tokugawa Ieyasu's face was more surprised, and Lin Xiuzhen's face was annoyed.

After a moment of silence, the crowd in the tearoom was finally broken by a loud laugh from Tokugawa Ieyasu. Sabei looked at Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was smiling, and asked with a smile, "What do you think of Mikawaden?" ”

When Tokugawa Ieyasu heard this, he didn't look at Lin Xiuzhen's angry appearance, but said to Ishikawa Shumasa, who looked like usual beside him: "Take a pen and paper!" ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu, the general of the Sabei guard, had agreed, so he bowed his head and said: "It's late at night, and I will leave the camp, which is not good for the morale of the army, so I will go back first!" ”

After speaking, Sakuma Nobumori and Hirasho Fanhide also echoed and said goodbye to Tokugawa Ieyasu, and Tokugawa Ieyasu was also happy, so that after instructing Kamihara Yasumasa to send everyone back, he let everyone leave the tea room.

Out of the tea room, Sakuma Nobumori bowed his head to Sabei and said, "Thank you!" ”

After accepting Sakuma's salute, Sabei said to Sakuma Nobumori: "Sakuma-sama, if you are in trouble, you can consult with your retainers or colleagues, and you don't have to think alone; I think that Lord Sakuma should have known that Sado Mamoru was dissatisfied, but because of the identity of the general general, he was afraid that people would pollute the adult's narrow-mindedness, and it seems that the adult had already begun to lay out when he learned that I was going to Yuanjiang with the adult. ”

Yan Bi Zuobei laughed at himself and said, "Am I just a so-called brave general who is only a little clever? Yan Bi said to the flat hand Fanxiu: "Although I am a new senator, but I am also a member of the family's Wanshi Zhixing, if I get everything by luck, I am afraid that I would have died with the Seven Guards in the mountain castle of Takashima County!" ”
