Chapter 337: Takenaka's half-guards come out of battle
After sending off Nakajo Keitai, who had made him a little confused, Sabei not only paid special attention to the dispatch order issued by Oda Nobunaga, but also returned to his original paddling state at the commission. Although Shuichi Hasegawa has encouraged himself to be patient many times, the current Sabei only has his unborn child and his own ambitions in his heart, and he has been idle for nearly a month, and he has done so much before, isn't he just waiting for himself to make a big show and have the power to stand in this troubled world?
On the contrary, good news continued to come from his domain, and now he has established the only commodity exchange and trading center in northern and western Hokuriku in his territory, and in addition to collecting taxes from the vast number of merchants, the products produced in the Sabei domain are also transported from the towns and cities of Kuniyoshi and Sakaki, to the and Hokuriku countries.
At the same time, the Shiroku in his own territory had reached more than 40,000 koku, which also allowed Sabei to recruit and reward more retainers and mobilize more ashigaru to participate in the war. This also laid the foundation for Sabei to earn more benefits from this alliance to attack Takeda's family. After all, if you have strength, you have the right to speak, and in the past, you had the reputation of a public family, and most of them could only command five or six hundred people under them when they went out of battle, which also made them not get more attention.
And Fushiwa Akijiro's Shesheng team is almost complete, although I know that Fushiba Mingjiro has recruited a lot of ronins as members of the Shesheng team, but the specific combat power of the Shesheng team, Sabei has no way to test.
Sitting in a daze in the room, Sabei was looking forward to Li Mingren's Furlong cannon, after all, this kind of sharp weapon was indeed and unique to deal with fortified cities that were not yet all stone, as well as other large and small cities.
Just when Hasegawa Shuichi looked like a confidant brother to appease Sabei who was eager to make contributions, Oda Nobutada, who Sabei hadn't seen for a long time, suddenly came to the commission. Seeing this, Hasegawa Shuichi and Sabei hurriedly stepped forward to salute Oda Nobutada, who looked proud, Oda Nobutada, seeing this, stepped forward to support the two, and then patted Sabei on the shoulder, with a big brother covering you, and said to Sabei who didn't know why with a smile: "Sabei, your proposal with Shuichi is really good, and my father hasn't mentioned your name once or twice recently!" ”
After hearing this, Sabei nodded, and then said with a wry smile: "Young master, why are you so happy?" It's even beyond words. ”
Oda Nobutada looked at Sabei when he heard this, and saw that Sabei looked listless, and then said to Sabei and Hasegawa Shuichi: "I was not in the city before, but I went to Higashimino to mobilize 6,000 troops, and after returning yesterday, I learned that the monkey had received an order from my father, and five days later, I set out from Omi to lead 5,000 troops. ”
Listening to Oda Nobutada's words, Sabei's face was a little bitter, and he asked Oda Nobutada, "Then can I go out into battle?" ”
After listening to Sabei's words, Oda Nobutada was stunned for a moment and then said to Sabei: "Of course you are going to go into battle, do you want to die in the office of the broken horn of this family?" ”
Then Oda Nobutada took out the lower knowledge covered with the Great Seal of Oda Nobunaga's World Buwu, and said to Sabei with a serious face: "The lord of Kuniyoshi Castle, Ming Wei Sabei Xuanxin, ordered to mobilize fifteen samurai on horseback, fifty samurai on foot, and 1,000 ashigaru to assemble in Gifu Castle, and those who overtime will be severely punished!" ”
Sabei looked at the lower knowledge handed over to him by Oda Nobutada, frowned and said, "Young master, there are no more than ten thousand stones in the lower knowledge, why..."
Oda Nobutada didn't wait for Sabei to complain, and immediately said to Sabei: "Even if the castle generation of Kuniyoshi Castle is full of praise for Sabei now, my father will not know the strength of your Kuniyoshi and the local servants you call you. ”
Sabei sighed when he heard this, it seems that Oda Nobunaga is really strict with himself. Then Sabei said to Oda Nobutada, who had recovered a little of his youthful heart in front of him, "The young master is going to be the general of the army in charge of this expedition against Suruga?" ”
After hearing this, Oda Nobutada nodded, and then said: "Takigawa Left Shogun will also lead the 5,000 troops of Northern Ise out of battle, and the main family has mobilized more than 17,000 troops this time, and the 5,000 troops who previously supported Makinohara Castle will be withdrawn from Makinohara Castle and replenished to the Higashimino area and the mountain castle and Yamato line. ”
Zuobei then said: "Young master, if most of the troops in my general are transferred out, the territory will definitely be empty. ”
Oda Nobutada smiled after hearing this and said, "Don't worry, Kigoro is guarding Wakasa, and the clans of Tanba and Tango don't dare to provoke easily!" ”
"By the way, your father also gave you a task." Oda Nobutada nodded to Sabei and said to Sabei with a serious face.
Sabei looked at Oda Nobutada with some doubts, and before Sabei could ask, Oda Nobutaka had already said: "The hatred between you and Takenaka Hanbei, it's time to settle it, my father thinks that now is the time to employ people, and I hope you will focus on the overall situation, take the initiative to go to Bodhi Mountain Castle to visit Hanbei, and ask Hanbei to also come out of Suruga!" ”
After hearing this, Sabei was directly stunned, how can this matter be handed over to me to deal with, could it be that Oda Nobunaga is worried that I and Yushiba Hideyoshi may be opposed in the crusading army, which will lead to the failure of the conquest of Suruga?
After figuring out this conclusion, Sabei was still quite unhappy in his heart, at that time, Takenaka Hanbei sold Shibata Katsuie, Niwa Nagahide and himself, and caused himself to be captured, not to mention, his iron artillery general Suzuki Heavy Industries was also disabled due to serious injuries, can this be easily forgiven? If you invite out the Takenaka half-guard, what will the retainers think of themselves?
Oda Nobutada, who knew the whole story, saw Sabei's face look embarrassed, sighed and said: "Even if you can't forgive Hanbei, please try not to exacerbate the conflict with Hanbei, and let me help you complete the matter of asking Hanbei to come out!" ”
On the same day, Oda Nobutada and Sabei came to Bodhi Mountain Castle on horseback, and both of them entered Bodhi Mountain Castle, but Sabei always stayed near the gate of Bodhi Mountain Castle. The samurai guarding the city gate also knew that this person was one of the enemies of his lord, so naturally he would not bother with the sake.
It didn't take long for Oda Nobutada to walk out with a half-guard in Takenaka, who was dressed in armor. When Sabei saw Takenaka's half-guard, he didn't pay any attention to it, but just bowed his head to Oda Nobutada.
Obviously, the Takenaka Hanbei was still very polite, and after nodding slightly to Sabei, he didn't pay attention to Sabei anymore.
Seeing this, Oda Nobutada coughed, and then said to the two: "This battle is related to the power and prestige of the family in the eastern country, and I hope that the two of you will fight for the family together!" ”
When the two heard this, they both bowed their heads and agreed, and then separated from Oda Nobutada. It didn't take long for a team of more than fifty people to appear behind the Takenaka half-guard, and when the Takenaka half-guard saw that all the summoned men had arrived, he bowed his head to Oda Nobutada and said, "Young master, now I can go!" ”
