For Oda Hidenobu's request, Hidebo was inevitably a little surprised, in his opinion, it was unrealistic for the Oda family to restore the glory of the past, in this case, why did this Oda Nobunaga's grandson ask Hidebo for the old ministers, besides, these retainers have been the first to become a big name for a long time, not Hideho can be allocated to him in a few words, Oda Hidenobu's request made Hidebo confused. （

"Gao Hu, you have been in Meinong for a long time, can you see what Zhongnayan's intentions are?" Hideho asked Fujido Takatora.

In order to let Hidebo understand the ins and outs of this matter, Fujido Takatora had to start with Oda Hidenobu at the beginning of his entry into Gifu Castle: "After becoming the lord of Gifu Castle, Nakayan recruited talents, not only appointed Oda Nobutaka's former minister Tsuda Mototsuna as the elder, but also the old retainer of the Sato family, Iinuma Nagami and his son, the Sato Shoinken and Sato Tokumoto of the Sato clan, and Muto Sukejuro of the Toki clan were also recruited under his command, so that the retainers of the previous Gifu castle lords were all under his command. In addition, virtuous people such as Gamo Mototoki, the eldest son of the Gamo clan (Ikoma Iemon), and the swordsman Ashida Shozo, were also willing to serve by his side, so it can be seen that Gifu Natsu Nayan was by no means a mediocre person, and he really wanted to restore the family business of the Oda family. ”

"In that case, I really can't agree to his request, and if I hand over the seven daimyo to him, won't Mino change the sky." Hideho is not without worries about Oda Hidenobu's ambitions, and now that he occupies Central America and can't cope with it, if he hands over West Mino to him again, won't his ambitions expand further? Thinking of this, Hideho decided to refuse Oda Nobuhide's request. （

However, in the eyes of Fujido Takatora, this matter may not be as dangerous as Hideho imagined: "Now it is the Oda family who has taken the initiative to come to the door, which means that the family has taken the initiative in this matter, so the conditions can be discussed again; Second, even if you agree to hand over the seven families to him, you still need the consent of the seven families, but as things stand, do you think they will abandon the Tokugawa family and switch to the Oda family? Obviously, unless the Tokugawa family is suppressed, it is possible for the Oda family to get Nishimino. In this sense, since he expressed this intention, he has been on the side of his family, so Nakayama must have realized that he must take refuge in his family in order to realize his plan. As long as you agree with this, you can be regarded as agreeing with your family. As for the ownership of the seven families, it is based on the premise of whether or not to obey the own family. In other words, whether or not he can get Nishimino depends entirely on whether he is willing to submit to his own family. Do you feel better when you think about it? ”

"You mean, he has no way out and must obey his family?" Xiubao was immediately interested.

"In a sense, it can be understood in this way." Fujitang Gaohu bowed slightly. "It's just that you don't want to be too humble, and if he licks his face and begs you to take him under your command, and you must give him Simino when the matter is done, isn't it too subordinate? After all, Gifu Nayan is a man of the world, he can't do this kind of deadly thing, and you don't need to break him, as long as you know it in your heart. As for the conditions he proposed, they are completely negotiable. ”

"I see, it's a way to maintain your dignity." Hideho finally sighed, but he was still a little skeptical about Oda Hidenobu's request: "The sum of the Nishimino family is less than 200,000 stones, and I think he can make a higher request." ”

Hearing Xiubao say this, Fujido Gaohu smiled and analyzed: "This is the difference between the famous family and the rural wealthy family. The latter both want to eat a fat man in one bite, while the former will consider not provoking the other party, and will work steadily and step by step. Think about it, what would you say if Chugna said that after the war, Mino and Owari would be given to the two countries, otherwise they would take refuge in the Tokugawa family? ”

"These two countries add up to a million stones. How can it be? ”

"But what if he wants so much?"

"Then I can only promise him first, and then talk about it later."

"You see, that's not it, even with your promise. It will not be cashed in afterwards, but may be settled after the fall, so it is better to be realistic. Fujido Takahu said with emotion: "Nakayan is such a person, Nishimino says big or small, but as a barrier for Mimino is really very important, and most of them are former ministers of the Oda family, and being able to absorb back the Oda family is also a major event in reviving the family business, plus Nayan's understanding of himself, making this request is also decent, there is no lion opening his mouth, but the family can still bargain with him." Lord, you give a bottom line, and this matter will be handed over to your subordinates and Takenaka. ”

After Fujido Takatora's analysis, Hideho was a lot more relieved about Oda Hidenobu's intentions, but as Fang just said, Hideho took the initiative in this matter, and he couldn't fully accept the conditions of the Oda family, so he gave his bottom line: "In order to ensure the existence between Hida and Mino, Gujo Hachiman Castle must be owned by the family, Southwest Mino is closely related to Ise and Noo corridors, and the three territories there are also in their hands as much as possible, as for the three Nishimino families, they can all be given to him, and Iwamura Castle now seems to be a strategic location, After the harvest of Mikawa Tokaido after the war, it will not be so important, since he wants it, then give it to him, this is the price I offered, as for how to talk to Zhongna, that is your business. ”

"Seven families to four families, hehe, the lord is also a practical person, since this is the case, leave this matter to your subordinates." Fujido Takatora smiled and said no more, and three days later, he came to Gifu Castle to negotiate with Oda Hidenobu and a cadre of retainers.

The negotiation process was unsatisfactory, and there were no major problems with the respective ownership of Nishimino and Southwest Minano, and the focus of the problem was on Gujo Hachiman Castle, which was located in the upper reaches of the Nagara River system, and as the starting point for the transportation of timber from the Nagara River, it held the economic lifeline from Hida to Gifu Castle. If Gujo Hachiman Castle is not obtained, the Oda family's profit from the transportation of timber will largely depend on the future lord of Gujo Hachiman Castle, which Oda Hidenobu does not want to see if he wants to gain economic autonomy, so the two parties have been at a stalemate over the ownership of the castle.

In this regard, Fujido Takatora asked Hideho for instructions, and the two discussed and finally agreed to Oda Hidenobu's request, but in exchange, the Oda family had to hand over the northern part of Takei and Ena Counties, centered on Kanayama Castle, and attach Iwamura Castle.

Hideho made a compromise due to an analysis of the terrain, and at that time there were two official roads from Mino to Hida, one was the district street that passed through Gujo Hachiman Castle, and the other was the Hida street that passed through Kanayama Castle. As for Iwamura Castle, it was an enclave for the Oda family, and Oda Hidenobu, considering the compromise made by Hidebo, returned the favor by handing it over in exchange for peace between the two families, and at this point, the alliance between the Yamato Toyotomi family and the Oda family was finally reached.
