Waking up the next day, Sabei walked out of the yashiki of Yodo Castle, and after inspecting the military situation of the country's men, Sabei was invited by Akechi Mitsuhide to the castle hall to discuss matters.

He followed Akechi Mitsuhide's attendants to the castle hall, but saw that only Akechi Hidemitsu and Tsuda Nobusumi and others were in the assessment room, but Naomasa and Sakuma Nobumori and others were nowhere to be seen. After a brief scrutiny, Sabei saluted Akechi Mitsuhide, and then sat down at the end of the assessment room.

Akechi Mitsuhide looked at Sabei, who was already seated, and said to Sabei, "Sabei, take a look at this letter first!" After saying that, he glanced at the little surname on the side, and after the little surname understood, he immediately knelt in front of the sabei with the letter and respectfully handed it to the sabei.

Sabei took the letter from the small surname, then looked away from the surrounding group of wise retainers, and then looked down at the letter in his hand. After a few breaths, Sabei put the letter in the hand of the little surname in front of him, and then bowed his head to Akechi Mitsuhide and asked, "Akechi-sama, the Miyoshi clan has the intention of peace talks, and this matter can be reported to the lord for decision!" ”

As soon as Sabei's words fell, the atmosphere in the assessment room suddenly became delicate. Tsuda Nobusumi also immediately glanced at Sahei, but Sabei just shook his head slightly at Tsuda Nobusumi, and then looked at the wise Mitsuhide in his hand and said: "Akechi-sama, after I discuss this matter, I still need to inform Sakuma-sama and Saga-sama, etc., and then report it to the lord after everyone discusses!" ”

After listening to Sabei's words, Akechi Mitsuhide opened the folding fan in his hand, then put it aside, and said to Sabei: "What Sabei said is exactly what I think, Tadazaemon, you go and inform Sakuma-sama-sama and Saga-sama, just say that the Miyoshi family has sent a letter asking for peace talks." ”

One of the samurai in the assessment room stood up and bowed his head to Akechi Mitsuhide, then walked out of the assessment room quickly. Afterwards, Akechi Mitsuhide said to his other retainers: "Everyone should also go and inspect the military situation stationed inside and outside the city first, and report to me in time if there is any situation!" After hearing this, the wise retainers in the assessment room got up one after another, bowed to the wise Guangxiu, and left the assessment room one by one.

After the wise retainers left, Tsuda Nobusumi said to the wise Mitsuhide who was on the top: "Lord Akechi, Sabei has just been rude, I hope your lordship will forgive me!" After hearing this, Akechi Mitsuhide smiled and said, "Sabei's thoughts are the same as mine, how can I think Sabei is rude?" ”

After saying that, Akechi Mitsuhide turned his gaze at Sabei, who smiled and avoided Akechi Mitsuhide's gaze, looked at Tsuda Nobusumi and said, "Brother in-law, don't underestimate Akechi-sama's strength. Then the three of them looked at each other and smiled, and then began to talk about the governance of the collar again.

After the three people in the assessment room chatted for a while, Sakuma Nobumori and others also rushed to the assessment room. After Akechi Mitsuhide showed the Miyoshi family's letter requesting another peace talk, the crowd began to argue.

Sabei sat in an inconspicuous position in the assessment room, quietly watching Akechi Mitsuhide. After some controversy, both Nobumori Sakuma and Mitsuhide Akechi made it clear that it was up to Oda Nobunaga to decide.

Sabei, who left the assessment room with everyone, was stopped by Tsuda Nobusumi, who looked at his brother-in-law in front of him, who was a little unpredictable, and asked Tsuda Nobusumi in a low voice, "Seven soldiers, what are you doing?" It was the Lord who made you..."

Tsuda Nobusumi didn't answer after hearing this, but just walked up to Sabei and asked in a low voice to Sabei, "Do you think it's a little strange that Akechi Mitsuhide suddenly mobilized the two of us?" ”

Hearing this, Sabei nodded, and then said in a low voice, "Nanhei, did you find anything?" ”

Tsuda Nobusumi shook his head and said, "I'm secretly exploring the mystery of this, and you should pay more attention recently." After speaking, Tsuda Nobusumi said loudly to Sabei: "Sabei, you don't take my brother-in-law seriously!" ”

Looking at the brother-in-law in front of him, who suddenly changed his face, Zuobei also immediately responded loudly: "Brother in-law, your siege method is too backward, and it is completely inconsistent with what the lord said about a quick battle!" ”

Seeing the two arguing, Sakuma Nobumori immediately sent someone to separate the two. Looking at Tsuda Nobusumi, who was still loudly reprimanding Sabei in front of him, Sakuma Nobumori was just about to admonish Sabei, when he saw Sabei leave directly with the sword. Then Sakuma Nobumori looked at Tsuda Nobusumi and said to Tsuda Nobusumi, "Don't hurt your friendship because of such a trivial matter. ”

After hearing this, Tsuda Nobusumi thanked Sakuma Nobumori and the others, and then left with his saber. Sakuma Nobumori, who was left behind, recalled what Sabei said about "a quick battle", and immediately reacted, the lord sent himself to attack Hanoi, and asked Akechi Mitsuhide and Naomasa to assist him, just to be able to rely on the strength of the crowd to fight a quick victory, and Mingwei Genshin and Tsuda Nobusumi were mobilized to gather more troops, so that they could quickly fight and capture Hanoi with an overwhelming advantage.

Thinking of this, Sakuma Nobumori couldn't help but scoff at the matter of the peace talks advocated by Akechi Mitsuhide, and he only cared about the gains and losses of the peace talks, but ignored the necessity of the so-called peace talks. The so-called peace treaty has already been torn up by the arrival of the troops, and from the perspective of the Miyoshi family, is it necessary to negotiate peace again and sign a peace treaty? The so-called re-election peace talks are nothing more than delaying time.

Thinking of this, Sakuma Nobumori said to the flat fan show on the side: "Shizaemon, let's go and inform the wise Shibei now, don't let him fall for the delay plan of the Miyoshi family!" After speaking, the people who had dispersed again walked towards the assessment room under the leadership of Sakuma Nobumori.

Sabei, who walked not far away, looked back at the people who turned back, and was also a little surprised, he had no intention of inserting willows, as if he had caused some trouble. Nobusumi Tsuda, who had kept a distance from Sabei, and Sabei, who had turned back, glanced at each other, and then walked towards the camp of his army.

However, this time Akechi Mitsuhide grabbed his sparse hair, and looked at the menacing Sakuma Nobumori and Hetetsu Fanxiu in front of him, and Akechi Mitsuhide didn't know why they suddenly grabbed the words "quick solution" and "delaying strategy".

Sakuma Nobumori looked at Akechi Mitsuhide, who was still a little hesitant in front of him, and said again: "Akechi-sama, it was you who summoned Tsuda Shichibei and Mingwei Sabei to help, why are you afraid now, don't hesitate, it's best to attack Hanoi tomorrow!" ”

Wise Mitsuhide nodded after hearing this, and then said, "Do you want to report the matter of peace talks to the lord?" After hearing this, Sakuma Nobumori said categorically to everyone: "The matter of peace talks is naturally to be reported to the lord, but since the lord ordered me to lead the army to attack the Hanoi Miyoshi clan, we have no reason to sit and wait again, wise lord, you should know that the peace talks are for both sides of equal power, as for the current Hanoi Miyoshi family, it is no longer the overlord of the side that dominated Gyeonggi back then, and there is no qualification to negotiate peace with the lord, for them there are only two ways to surrender and surrender and fight to the death!" ”
