Chapter 304: Negotiations are fruitless
Sabei took Kanhara Yasumasa into the castle hall of Oda Nobunaga, and the horses in the courtyard and the near side saluted after seeing the Sabei guard, and Sabei did not dare to be proud, so he nodded back with the horses and the near side that he met on the road.
The two walked to the front of the assessment room, and Sabei talked a few words with the mother-clothed people on duty in front of the door, and then put the saber under the corridor with Yasumasa Kamihara. Seeing this, the mother Yizhong nodded to the two, and then put the two into the assessment room.
Sabei, who entered the assessment room before Yasumasa Kamihara, saw Shuichi Hasegawa sitting on Oda Nobunaga's left hand side with his back to him at first sight. Sabei was stunned for a moment, and then bowed his head to Oda Nobunaga, who was on the top, and said, "My lord, the messenger of His Highness Mikawa asks to see my lord!" Saybisabei bowed his head again to Shuichi Hasegawa, who turned his head to look at him, and sat down on Oda Nobunaga's right hand under the guidance of Oda Nobunaga.
After Yasumasa Kamihara sat down on Sabei, he stepped forward and bowed his head and said, "Your Highness Oda, the lord has sent me to discuss with His Highness the matter of Takeda's westward advance!" ”
After speaking, Yasumasa Kamihara bowed his head and stood in place, waiting for Oda Nobunaga to give him an answer.
After listening to Kamihara Yasumasa's words, Oda Nobunaga did not look at Kamihara Yasumasa in front of him, but instead focused his gaze on Sabei, who had a little flickering in his eyes. After feeling the sharp gaze that invaded people's skin, Sabei bowed his head and said to Oda Nobunaga: "My lord, this is a very serious trouble, and I ask my lord to call the young lord and the important ministers in the family to come and listen!" ”
After hearing this, Oda Nobunaga withdrew his penetrating gaze, and said to the envoy of the Tokugawa family in front of him: "Kamihara Koheiji Yasumasa, Ieyasu's fierce general, this time Ieyasu sent you to discuss the matter of jointly controlling Takeda's westward advance, could it be that the Takeda family has made further moves recently?" ”
Hearing this, Yasumasa Kamihara raised his head and looked at Oda Nobunaga, and at the moment when his eyes touched Oda Nobunaga, he said to Oda Nobunaga: "Your Highness Oda, the family recently got the news that Takeda Katsuyori wants to send troops from Sunfu to capture Takutenjin Castle, and then along the Tokai National Road, all the way west to Shangluo. ”
As soon as Yasumasa Kamihara's words fell, he heard the door of the assessment room being opened again, and Yasumasa Kamihara immediately kept silent when he saw this.
Sabei looked back and saw Oda Nobutada's folding fan in his waist and walked into the assessment room. When Sabei and Hasegawa Shuichi turned around and saluted, Kanhara Yasumasa almost guessed who this young samurai who was seven points similar to Oda Nobunaga's appearance, so he also bowed his head to Oda Nobutada.
Oda Nobutada nodded slightly to the three of them, and then came to Oda Nobunaga's side and sat down.
At this time, Oda Nobunaga shouted to the mother-clothed people outside the door, "Don't let people in again!" After speaking, Oda Nobunaga waved his hand at the little surname serving beside him.
After getting Maza and sitting down, Yasumasa Kamihara thanked Oda Nobunaga and bowed his head, and then continued to say to the four members of the Oda family: "Last year, Takeda Katsuyori took advantage of the time when His Royal Highness Oda pacified Nagashima to break into Higashimino and capture several cities in Higashinano, the territory of the Takeda family is now wider than when Takeda Shingen was alive, if Takeda Katsuyori reconquers the high tenjin castle, I am afraid that it will be even more unfavorable to the main family and the Oda family!" ”
After listening to Kanhara Yasumasa's words, Oda Nobunaga looked at his son who had just sat down, and then turned his gaze to Kamihara Yasumasa, and said to Kamihara Yasumasa: "Since it is an alliance, I will tell you the truth, I also got the news, Ashikaga Yoshiaki who was defeated by me last year instigated the daimyo of the West Country to launch a new offensive against the family in the land of the West Country, and the overlord of the West Country Mori also has a tendency to go east to Shangluo, at this time it is not strange that the Takeda family has this heart of Shangluo, but the family has just been on Long Island, and it may be rectified for a while. ”
After listening to Oda Nobunaga's words, Sabei glanced up at Oda Nobutada, and saw that Oda Nobutada frowned and was silent, so he also lowered his head and continued to listen to what Kanhara Yasumasa said.
After hearing Oda Nobunaga's words, Yasumasa Kamihara bowed his head and said: "Although the family has not moved troops in the past two years, the momentum of Takeda is still not something that the family can stop. ”
Oda Nobunaga smiled after hearing this, and then asked Oda Nobutada beside him, "Nobutada, what do you think?" ”
After hearing his father's words, the worried Oda Nobutada looked up at Oda Nobunaga, and then said to Kamihara Yasumasa in front of him: "If this is a plan for the Takeda family, then the area around Honjia Mino will be dangerous; Besides, does Mikawa-sama have a detailed plan to defend against the enemy? If there is no detailed plan, even if the family has spare strength, they dare not easily send troops to help. ”
When Kanhara Yasumasa heard this, he looked up at Oda Nobunaga, whose face did not change, and bowed his head to Oda Nobutada and said: "The lord thinks that it is more convenient for the Takeda family to take the Tokai National Highway to Shangluo than to pass through Shinano and Mino, so I hope that His Royal Highness Oda can take the initiative to attack and recover the castle of Higashi Mino, so as to delay the pace of the Takeda family to Kamiro, and the main family will send troops from Enoe to attack Suruga, and we will attack in two directions, so that the Takeda family will have no time to deal with it, thus..."
"I'm afraid that Takeda Katsuyori will break his arm to survive and completely annihilate your army attacking Suruga! It's only a matter of time before the family recovers Higashimino, and Ieyasu's plan disappoints me too much! Oda Nobunaga directly interrupted Kamihara Yasumasa's words, then looked at the two retainers who bowed their heads and were silent, and continued to say to Kamihara Yasumasa: "Go back and tell Ieyasu and let him guard the first line of the three rivers of the Yuanjiang, now that the Takeda family is in full swing, Takeda Katsuyori is eager to break through the Yuanjiang River to establish his prestige in the family, how to do it and let him plan it himself!" ”
Yasumasa Kamihara smiled, thanked Sabei again, and then bowed his head to Oda Nobunaga and said, "Your Highness Oda, your words will be conveyed to the lord in the future!" He then bowed to the four people in the assessment room. After Sabei returned the salute, he said to Yasumasa Kamihara: "Xiao Heiji is bothering you!" After speaking, Yasumasa Kamihara left the assessment room.
After Yasumasa Kamihara left the assessment room, Oda Nobunaga set his eyes on Sahei, and then said in a loud voice, "Sabei, I heard that your authority in the commission has faintly overwhelmed Hasegawa?" Oda Nobutada, who was on the side, was stunned when he heard this, and then turned his eyes to Hasegawa Shuichi and Sabei.
After hearing this, Sabei's expression remained unchanged and immediately bowed his head and said, "I have no intention of offending, and I hope Hasegawa-sama will forgive me!" ”
After listening to the brief conversation between Oda Nobunaga and Sabei, Shuichi Hasegawa, who didn't want to stiffen the relationship between each other, immediately said to Sabei: "Lord Mingwei doesn't have to be like this, I don't mean anything else. ”
Seeing this, Oda Nobunaga just nodded, and then said to the two: "Recently, you have accelerated the sorting and inventory of the weapons and food in the warehouse, and Takeda Katsuyori will not be able to hold it back!" ”
