Chapter 271: Homecoming
Listening to Oda Nobutada's words, everyone in the assessment room was stunned, and Oda Nobunaga's expression also changed slightly. Sabei pondered the meaning of Oda Nobutada's words, and then understood the key to what Oda Nobutada's words had just said. Although Takeda Katsuyori uses soldiers like a god to plan superman, he lacks the brutality and determination of a general; At the same time, as a family governor, he could not get the support of the subordinate family in the territory, and led the army on an expedition when the territory was not stable, which was too rash and eager to prove himself.
Seeing a glimmer of light in Oda Nobunaga's eyes, Oda Nobutada took a hard breath, and then continued: "The battle is unfavorable and troublesome, and now although Takeda Katsuyori has captured the main family Higashi Mino Castle for a while, the Takeda family is not at peace for a day, even if Takeda Katsuyori is better than his father, he can't cope with the strength of his own army. β
Everyone in the assessment room reacted to Oda Nobutada's thunderous words, and then exchanged quick eye contact with each other, and then bowed to Oda father and son.
Sabei was even more shocked by Oda Nobutada's words, and was stunned for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses. Oda Nobutada, who was a talented man, intentionally or unintentionally, made Takeda Katsuyori clear, which made Sabei a little suspicious of whether Oda Nobutada was a member of the same road as himself. However, he thought that if it was as he speculated, it was estimated that Oda Nobutada had already defeated Takeda Katsuyori in Akechi Castle, and in connection with the long-term contact with Oda Nobutada, Sabei finally ruled out this possibility.
Sabei, who came back to his senses, looked at Oda Nobutada in front of him, and couldn't describe his mood in words for a long time. It wasn't until Oda Nobunaga informed everyone about the current situation in the Nagashima area and the withdrawal of the troops besieging the Nagashima area that Sabei calmed down, seriously pondered the battle situation in the Nagashima area, and finally came to the conclusion that Oda Nobunaga might continue to besiege the Nagashima area next year.
......
After leaving the assessment room, Sabei, who was holding Kunijun on his waist, said to Tsuda Shinsumi beside him: "Shichibei, what do you think of the young master's judgment of Takeda Katsuyori? β
Tsuda Nobusumi looked at the lively Gifu Town at the foot of the mountain, and after hearing Sabei's words, he smiled and said: "I think what the young lord said is reasonable, and if Takeda Katsuyori can't deter the retainers of the lord with high strength in the territory, how can he mobilize all the troops in the territory to fight with his own family?" β
After listening to Tsuda Nobusumi's words, Sabei also looked at Gifu Town, and after looking for some fruitlessness, he turned his eyes to Tsuda Nobusumi beside him.
After Nobusumi Tsuda noticed Sabei's small movements, he withdrew his gaze from Gifu Town, looked at Yashiki on the side, and said to Sabei: "Ashu will live in Gifu Castle for a while after that, and you are not the only one worried about the Takeda family. β
After hearing this, Sabei shook his head and said to Tsuda Nobusumi, "The townspeople under the castle are much more worried than me, and I am just surprised by what the young lord said. β
Tsuda Nobusumi smiled, brushed the clothes on his body with his hands, and then whispered to Sabei, "What is the meaning of what the young master said?" If the young master defeats Takeda Katsuyori in one fell swoop, this statement must be justified..."
Sabei stopped talking, and after looking back at the towering castle tower, he suddenly smiled. Seeing this, Nobusumi Tsuda, who was on the side, also glanced back at the castle tower, and then asked suspiciously, "Sabei, what are you laughing at?" β
After hearing this, Sabei shook his head and said to Tsuda Nobusumi on the side: "The Takeda Army is really unstoppable!" β
After listening to Sabei's inexplicable words, Tsuda Nobusumi was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Today, why did you bluntly say in front of the city gate that the Takeda army was not repelled by us, but withdrawn by itself?" β
After hearing Tsuda Nobusumi's words, Sabei suddenly said seriously: "Shichibei, do we also want to be like the townspeople under the castle?" The story of you and me's heroic killing of the enemy can deceive the townspeople and stabilize the hearts of the people of Gifu, do you really want to immerse yourself in victory? β
After listening to Sabei's words, Tsuda Nobusumi's face became a little embarrassed, and after holding the saber on his waist, he continued: "At least let the young lord have an explanation in front of the lord, even if it is to stabilize the townspeople of Gifu, you have to talk about it after entering the city!" β
Hearing this, Sabei smiled and said, "Will the townspeople still go and carefully examine the details of how we defeated the Takeda army?" The lord will never let the unstable of the people happen in Qifu, in front of the lord, you and I still have to take care of it! β
Tsuda Nobusumi was silent after hearing this, and once again set his eyes on the town of Gifu outside the castle.
After a day's stay at Gifu Castle, Sabei said goodbye to Oda Nobutada, Tsuda Nobusumi and others, and returned to Wakasa Mikata Prefecture with his troops first. Oda Nobutada and Tsuda Nobusumi also bid farewell to Sabei when he left Gifu.
In the face of the increasingly biting cold wind, Sabei and the others returned to Kuniyoshi Castle along the Higashi Omi. Fushiba Akijiro, who stayed behind in Kuniyoshi Castle, and Yamashita Shinsuke, who was the first to return, were already waiting for Sabei and his party outside Kuniyoshi Castle. When they saw the appearance of a banner with a guard pattern, the two of them stepped out of the welcoming army at the same time, and knelt down in front of Sabei under the gaze of the surrounding townspeople.
Seeing this, Sabei rolled over from his horse, helped the two kneeling on the ground to their feet, and then asked Fushiwa Meijiro, "How is the situation at Kuniyoshi Castle?" Fuyu Mingjiro bowed his head after hearing this and said: "Nothing major happened, but there was a Ming ship passing by the repaired 'Siming Port' before, and the owner of the ship left three catties of tea for the lord after hearing that the lord was a Ming man, and let him tell the lord that this tea is his respect for the lord, and hope to meet with the lord in the future." β
