After listening to the words of the burning air, Nanjo Terukei was full of cleverness, and immediately knelt on the ground and said to the burning air: "I will definitely settle Tomita-sama and Gamo-sama well, and I will be loyal to His Royal Highness Nobunaga, and I hope your Excellency can rest assured!" ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky turned to Nanjo Terukei and said, "Naosuke Majo is a good samurai, but he doesn't know how to judge the situation, I hope Nanjo-sama can learn a lesson!" After saying that, he said to Tomita Nagashige and Kamo Kenhide: "After Senshi Hidehisa returns to Nagahama, Lord Shibata is very likely to send someone to inspect the situation, you have a good rest, don't worry about it then, just tell the truth!" ”

After listening to Burning Heaven's words, Tomita Nagashi and Gamo Kenhide nodded, and then asked Burning Heaven, "Do you want it from Mt. Hiei?" ”

"No need, Momoyama Castle tidied up a little, and I arranged for everyone to rest! When you return, send someone to inform Toda-sama to guard Hino Mountain Castle, and if the enemy attacks, send someone to inform me. Burning Sky explained to Tomita Naghiro and the others again, and then motioned for them to go back and rest.

Just after Tomita Nagashi and the others returned to Nanjo Castle, Nanjo Terukei summoned his relatives and retainers to his house with a huge sleepiness, and said to them with a serious face: "I went to Momoyama Castle just now, Naosuke Masakat was killed and hung on a tree, and the rest of the people were all killed because of resistance, you guys are a little more peaceful these days, and the requirements of the Oda army can be met as much as possible, if they have excessive demands, you tell me immediately, although this person is ruthless in the burning of Mt. Hiei, But he is strict in governing the army, he will handle those things well, you must not be impulsive! ”

Nanjo Terukei's eldest son, Nanjo Teruaki, listened to his father's words, and said to Nanjo Terukei, "Daddy, is that Shamen so powerful?" Look at what scares you, isn't it just that there are many people? If he had been equal in number, he might not have been able to defeat his son! ”

Nanjo Terukei listened to his son's words, got up and kicked him, and said to the eldest son who was kicked down, "Bastard! Are you trying to kill everyone by saying such things? Hieiyama-sama's strategy not only calculated your father and me, but Naosuke Mangaku and Toda-sama were also calculated by him, and even their own people were calculated by him; What's even more terrifying is that his methods are ruthless, and his own people punish him mercilessly, not to mention us new ginseng, don't you see the blood stains on his belly scroll, the families of those Momoyama City samurai, hundreds of people, say no, it's gone, but it's a pity that Eri was killed by him at a young age. ”

Nanjo Teruaki was also very surprised to see his usually docile and kind father suddenly go crazy, after listening to his father's words, Nanjo Teruaki swallowed a mouthful of saliva, knelt in front of Nanjo Teruaki and said: "The son knows that he is wrong, and the father is angry!" ”

Seeing that his son admitted his mistake, Nanjo Teruaki helped him up, and said to Nanjo Teruaki: "It's good that you know your mistake!" After that, Nanjo Teruki said to the others: "Recently, everyone must be a man with their tails between their legs, don't cause trouble!" ”

Later, after repairing for a day and a night, the people regained their vitality again. Burning Sky also summoned his subordinate Tomita Nagashige and others to Momoyama Castle to discuss the matter of marching into Fuzhong Castle.

At this time, Nagahama Castle was in chaos, and Shibata Katsuya challenged Hashiba Hideyoshi because Hashiba Hideyoshi levied exemption money in his name, but Hashiba Hideyoshi excused himself on the grounds of illness. Shibata Katsuya then personally investigated the matter thoroughly, captured a group of Asai generals under Hashiba Hideyoshi, and pulled out two of Hashiba Hideyoshi's retainers, Nakamura Kazuji and Mikoda Masaharu.

Just when Yushiba Hideyoshi was worried, Senshi Hidehisa brought the news of the defeat of the burning sky in Momoyama Castle, and Yushiba Hideyoshi, who seized the opportunity, recovered instantly, not only took Takenaka Hanbei and others to Shibata Katsuya to question the matter, but also sent someone to report to Oda Nobunaga, and for a while Shibata Katsuya's side fell into passivity. Just when Shibata Katsuie was caught off guard by Hideyoshi Hashiba's sudden questioning, Sakuma Nobumori, who was escorted back to Nagahama by his close attendants, informed Shibata Katsuya of the news that Kanku had taken Nanjo Castle, Momoyama Castle, and Hino Yama Castle.

So the situation between the offensive and defensive sides was reversed again, and Hideyoshi Hashiba was sick again and lay in the palace of Nagahama City. Shibata Katsuya forced Hashiba Hideyoshi to quickly send troops and burn the sky to meet Fuchu Castle, and Hashiba Hideyoshi had no choice but to send his subordinates Wasuka Masakatsu and Takenaka Shigeji to lead 3,000 troops to follow Shibata Katsuya north.

Before Shibata Katsuie's departure, he was previously captured by Shibata Katsuie, and was released back by Nakamura Kazushi and Mikoda Masaharu, and Sakuma Morimasa was also escorted by Shibata Katsuie's close attendants on the grounds of serious injury, and was released back to Gifu Castle in advance to recuperate.

Ignorant of what was happening at Nagahama Castle, he convened a meeting in Momoyama Castle after gathering the generals of his various armies to discuss how to march and capture Fuchu Castle, the gateway fortress of the Asakura family to the Hokutsu Plain.

Tomita Nagashi, who made great contributions in the battle to pacify the South Vietnam, took the lead in saying to the burning sky: "Lord Hiei, the garrison of Fuzhong Castle must have increased now, and the communication between the former cities of North Vietnam is convenient, I am afraid that the news of the pacification of the former cities of South Vietnam has spread to Fuzhong Castle, presumably at this time the Asakura family in front of North Vietnam has been prepared, if the Lord of Hiei Mountain raided Fuzhong Castle when he pacified South Echi, maybe there is still a chance to capture Fuzhong Castle, and now it is too difficult to capture Fuzhong Castle!" ”

After listening to Tomita Nagashi's words, Burning Sky pointed to Fuzhong City and said: "The leader needs to be relaxed, if the tired army at that time raided Fuzhong City, not to mention that Fuzhong City was prepared, that is, Fuzhong City was not prepared, can the tired people compete with the energetic Fuzhong City defenders?" They are not peasants and soldiers, and their combat power must be better than I am! ”

Hearing the words of the burning sky, Gamo Xianxiu immediately echoed: "Lord Hieiyama is strict and thoughtful in governing the army, and I also think that the management of the army needs to be relaxed. ”

After listening to the words of the burning sky, Tomita Nagashi saw that the situation was a little wrong, and immediately bowed his head to the burning sky and said: "Under the vulgar people, I hope that Lord Hieiyama will forgive me for speaking wild words!" After hearing this, he waved his hand to show that it was okay, and continued to say to everyone: "I have sent someone to inform Shibata-sama that the army is coming, we need to find out the situation before Shibata-sama leads the army, this battle is not in the number of troops, I am ready to release the farmers and people of Tsuruga County in advance, wait for the Shibata-sama to join the army, and attack Fuchu Castle with an elite army!" ”

At this time, Fushiwa Akijiro and Suzuki Heavy Industries, who were standing beside the burning air, bowed their heads at the same time and said, "The lord can't! Burning Sky got up and looked at the two retainers behind him, and after a few moments of silence, he asked them, "Meijiro, Gorou Guard, why not?" ”

At this time, Nanjo Terukei, Toda and Jiro and the others on the side all looked at the two people who bowed their heads behind the Burning Void, waiting for the retainers of the Burning Void to say the reason why they openly denied their lord's plan!
