Chapter 260: Turning Back
Sabei left Oda Nobutada's apartment and walked out of the castle hall to Yashiki, where he was temporarily living. Nobusumi Tsuda was beside Sabei, and he discussed various gossip about the Takeda family with Sabei in a low voice.
Tsuda Nobusumi was talking when he suddenly said to Sabei, "Sabei, the kunijun that Lord Akechi gave you, can you let me see... Have a look? ”
After hearing this, Sabei nodded, untied the Kunijun he was wearing from his waist, and handed his hands to the stunned Tsuda Nobusumi.
Tsuda Nobusumi looked at Guojun in Sabei's hand, and did not take it, but said to Sabei: "Sabei, it is better to collect this famous knife of Guojun, is it a bit violent to take it out and use it so easily?" ”
Hearing this, Sabei looked confused, and was stunned for a while, before he said to Tsuda Shinsumi: "Seven soldiers, if the famous knife is only used for collection, it can't be called a famous knife over there, uh... At least that's what I think. ”
After hearing this, Tsuda Nobusumi shook his head and said, "If the blade is damaged, can a famous craftsman repair it today?" ”
Sabei, who tied the saber back to his waist, also shook his head after listening to Tsuda Nobusumi's words and said, "I think that only a blade that sharpens iron like clay and is unstoppable can be called a famous soldier, and the reason why a famous soldier can be passed down to future generations is precisely because later generations have not only passed on its story, but also future generations can also witness its power with their own eyes." ”
After a few more arguments, the two of them went back to the house and said no more.
The next day, Sabei put on his armor early in the morning and went to the castle hall of Sawa Yamajo Castle early to wait for Oda Nobutada. Oda Nobutada, who was eating in the castle hall, learned that Sabei was waiting for him outside the castle hall, and sent Shibata Katsumasa to the castle hall where Sabei was invited.
So Sabei had a second breakfast in Oda Nobutada's apartment. After eating, Oda Nobutada sent his attendants to convey orders to the various military forces, and said to Sabei, "Sabei, I have decided to go to Higashimino to find out by myself, and you and Shichibei will go to Gifu Castle with your subordinates to report to my father!" ”
Hearing this, Sabei nodded, bowed his head to Oda Nobutada, and said: "At this time, it is also the best choice that Zai Xia thinks, but I also think that the young master writes a letter to the lord to express his thoughts." ”
Listening to Sabei's not-so-subtle hints, Oda Nobutada smiled and took a letter from the little surname behind him. Seeing this, Sabei hurriedly took it with both hands, and said to Oda Nobutada: "Young master, the Seven Guards have been a little abnormal recently..."
"Seven Guards! It seems that I was called to my father's side to talk about it before, although I don't know the specific situation, but I don't want to say the general situation, you know! Oda Nobutada said, scratching his loose bun.
Looking at the appearance of the head of the moon generation, even though Oda Nobutada's appearance was already relatively high, and he was almost used to the head of the moon generation, Sabei still suddenly laughed. Although this moon head is a symbol of the martial nation at the same time as the Qing Dynasty's money rattail braid, the Mediterranean-like hairstyle is really unpredictable.
Oda Nobutada looked at Sabei who suddenly laughed, first touched his cheek, and after finding no remaining porridge stains, he asked Sabei with a serious face, "What's wrong?" ”
Sabei, who suppressed his laughter, said to Oda Nobutada with a smile on his face: "I think of why Nanhei suddenly competed with me!" ”
After hearing this, Oda Nobutuda also smiled and said: "Qibei is as polite as you, he is behaving with everyone on weekdays, and he has the taste of ordinary public children, but he is much more heroic than public children, well, and richer!" ”
The two of them laughed again, and Oda Nobutada also put on his armor and walked out of the castle hall with Sabei and his attendants.
After leaving the castle hall, Oda Nobutada once again conveyed orders to Niwa Nagahide and his retainers. Then Oda Nobutada led everyone towards Mino, and Sabei glanced back in the direction of Kuwana County, and said to the retainers beside him: "The next time I come, it will be the time to pacify Nagashima and always be in trouble!" Yan Bi Sabei said to Fujido Takatora on the side: "With Youemon, how about the next time you carry the military flag of your family and go to the city with me?" ”
Hearing this, Fujitang Gaohu patted his belly roll and said, "Next time, the lord will go all out to get a shot and a gun!" ”
After hearing this, the right one suke said to Fujitang Gaohu: "The lord has nothing to do, but it is much more important than a multiplication and a gun!" ”
Suzuki Heavy Industries, who was on the side, laughed and said, "If I still have good legs and feet, I will definitely fall into battle with the lord to kill the enemy!" ”
As soon as Suzuki Heavy Industries said this, the originally cheerful atmosphere instantly became a little gloomy. After listening to Suzuki Heavy Industries' words, Sabei also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and almost everyone was seriously injured that night in Yamashiro, Takashima County, but Suzuki Heavy Industries only suffered some minor injuries. Unexpectedly, he suffered a permanent wound to his leg during the capture of Echizen, and when he thought of this, Sabei looked at Suzuki Heavy Industries, who was a little embarrassed in front of him, and suddenly thought of the special military situation of the twenty-year-old little brother (Date Masamune).
After everyone was embarrassed for a moment, Sabei said: "Goroubei, it's just a few years older than me, it's just when you're young and vigorous, how can you say such disheartening things like a dying old man!" Although you are not able to charge into battle as you used to be, as long as you can ride a horse, I want to hand over the team that I have been planning for a long time to you to build, and you will be in charge in the future. ”
After listening to Sabei's words, everyone immediately became interested. Just as everyone was waiting for Sabei to tell him about the plan, Sabei said to the retainers beside him: "I can't tell you about this plan for the time being, but you will let you know when the time comes." When everyone heard this, they all bowed their heads and said yes, and Sabei continued to fight with the retainers.
At the normal pace of the past, Oda Nobutada and his party marched a little cautiously to the Mino realm. Soon after entering the Mino territory, Oda Nobutada, Tsuda Nobusumi and Sabei took the lead in advancing towards Higashimino with an army of more than 10,000 people.
Tsuda Nobusumi and Sabei looked at Oda Nobutada's army in the distance, and marched towards Gifu Castle, the castle of Mino Buluo.
When he walked to the foot of Gifu Castle, Sabei did not feel any uneasiness from the people of the Oda family, but repeated the same work day after day as usual, and various voices such as the cries of vendors and the disputes of passers-by entered Sabei's ears from far away. When the people of Gifu Town saw the samurai, they respectfully avoided the samurai's route.
Sabei looked around at the calm people around him, and when he was still wondering how it was good not to have the panic of the Takeda family, he suddenly found that this news was only known to the upper-level samurai who held more than a thousand troops.
Outside Gifu Castle, Hasegawa Shuichi received Sabei and Tsuda Nobusumi, who had come to report the situation, and after the three of them were polite, they brought only a few retainers and attendants into Gifu Castle, while the rest of his troops were stationed in a garrison opened not far from Gifu Castle.
