After listening to Oda Nobunaga's words, Oda Nobutada was stunned for a moment, and then bowed his head respectfully and said: "Father, this battle is indeed my command mistake, and I hope my father will forgive me!" ”

At this time, Oda Nobunaga did not respond to the confession of Oda Nobutada, who bowed his head in front of him, but said to Oda Nobutada: "Let's eat first, and then follow me to the evaluation room!" ”

After everyone entered the castle hall, Sabei slowly came to Gifu Castle Honmaru. Sabei looked up at the castle tower standing on the top of the mountain, and said to Suzuki Heavy Industries beside him, "Goroubei, am I a little too nervous?" ”

After hearing this, Suzuki Heavy Industries, Kaima Yoshiya, and Right Ichisuke glanced at each other, and then Suzuki Heavy Industries whispered to Sabei: "My lord, I don't know the inside story of the Takeda family's retreat, so I don't dare to judge the lord's actions." ”

Sabei nodded, then smiled and left his gaze on the endless mountains to the east.

As soon as he entered the castle hall, Sabei was led to the assessment room by his attendants. The Sabei who stood in front of the door of the assessment room nodded lightly to the attendants who had brought him in, and then stepped into the assessment room.

The people in the assessment room heard the sound and turned their heads to look at Sabei. Seeing this, Sabei immediately bowed his head to everyone in the assessment room, and everyone immediately returned the salute to Sabei. After Sabei sat down, the assessment room fell silent again.

As the cold wind whistled in front of the assessment room, Oda Nobunaga and Oda Nobutada walked into the assessment room together. The people who were shocked hurriedly bowed their heads to Oda and his son, but heard Oda Nobunaga say, "You guys, tell me what you found in this battle!" ”

Hearing this, everyone paused for a moment, and then turned their eyes to Niwa Nagahide, Tsuda Nobusumi, and Sabei. Sabei then looked at Niwa Nagahide and Tsuda Nobusumi again, and the meaning of his intention was self-evident, but what he got was the burning eyes of Niwa Nagahide and Tsuda Nobusumi.

At this time, Oda Nobutada, who was sitting on the left hand side of Oda Nobunaga, also said to Sabei: "Sabei, it's up to you to talk about it!" ”

Sabei sighed slightly in his heart, and it seemed that he was a good bird. Without thinking about anything else, after Sabei bowed his head slightly, he raised his head and said to Oda Nobunaga: "My lord, I went out from Gifu in the middle of this battle, and I don't know much about the previous things, and I hope the lord will forgive me!" ”

Oda Nobunaga was a little impatient when he heard this, and said to Sabei in a loud voice: "Say it quickly! ”

Hearing this, Sabei nodded in understanding, and then sat down and said, "I think that the retreat of the Takeda Army is not due to the disadvantage of the war, but to the internal suffering. ”

After hearing this, Oda Nobunaga nodded and said, "Everyone here knows a thing or two about this, you go on." ”

"After Takeda Katsuyori captured the fifteen cities of his family, in order to internalize the fifteen cities he had captured, he suspended the attack on the front line of Tangdong Castle, which also allowed Zai Xia and his brother to quickly build a defense after arriving at Tangdong Castle; Originally, the young lord and the inferior people discussed bypassing the Takeda army along the trail and raiding the Kiso family's army, which was in charge of transporting grain, but when they were about to complete their preparations, they learned the news of the Takeda army's withdrawal..."

"What I want to know is what I have discovered, and as for the course of this battle, you don't have to repeat it!" Oda Nobunaga got up and interrupted Sabei's report, then sat down again, shouting at Sabei.

After listening to Oda Nobunaga's reprimand, Sabei was silent for a few breaths, and then bowed his head to Oda Nobunaga and said, "So, I've finished talking about it!" ”

At this time, everyone in the assessment room was stunned, and Sabei, who seemed to have ten thousand words in his chest, suddenly said that he had finished speaking, this contrast made people a little puzzling for a while, but after all, he did not show his surprise obviously.

Oda Nobunaga listened to Sabei's words, first glanced at Sabei, then at Oda Nobutada, and finally said to Tsuda Nobusumi: "Shichibei, what have you discovered?" ”

Tsuda Nobusumi, who bowed his head and pondered, listened to Oda Nobunaga's words, pinched his thigh lightly, and then hurriedly replied: "My lord, I found that Takeda Katsuyori is extremely good at using tricks, especially this person's plan is linked first and the reality is contrasted, which makes people unguardable; In this battle, Takeda Katsuyori confronted the family in Tangdong Castle for a few days, and suddenly ordered most of his troops to retreat first, so that the family's fine work and ninjas spread the news of the retreat of the Takeda army to the family, and used the recovery of fifteen cities as bait to lure the family to attack, and when the family sent Zai and Sabei to check the situation of the Takeda army, he disturbed the judgment of Sabei and Zaixia with some words, so that Zaixia immediately turned around and returned to the aid of Tangdong Castle, resulting in the original superior army was forced to be divided into two parts, but fortunately, the young master calmly analyzed and saw through Takeda Katsuyori's strategy, In addition, there are 300 elites under Sabei, so I can save Sabei under the general, otherwise it is very easy to be defeated by the Takeda army again because of the back and forth of the army, if the 3,000 troops who went to check the situation in Xia and Sabei are annihilated, I am afraid that most of the original retreat of the Takeda army will immediately turn back..."

After listening to Tsuda Nobusumi's words, Oda Nobunaga nodded, and then looked at Niwa Nagahide to the side. Niwa Nagahide, who knew about it, also immediately said to Oda Nobunaga at this time: "Lord, Takeda Katsuri This person should not be taken lightly, maybe this person is a more tricky person than Shin Gengong, but it is obvious that this person will also be bound by the affairs of the collar and cannot exert his full strength, so the family can start from this and let him be firmly bound by the things in the collar." ”

After Tsuda Nobusumi and Niwa Nagahide finished speaking, Oda Nobunaga glanced at Sabei who bowed his head in front of him, and then said to Oda Nobutada beside him: "Kankuro, what do you think of Takeda Katsuyori?" ”

Oda Nobutada also bowed his head immediately when he heard this, and then said to Oda Nobunaga beside him: "Father, I think it is difficult for Takeda to win this person!" ”

Hearing this, Niwa Nagahide, Tsuda Nobusumi and Sabei were stunned, and then their faces became a little gloomy, and the other generals also looked incredible, and the previous efforts of the three adults were in vain. Sabei was even more chaotic in his heart at this time, he and Niwa Nagahide, Tsuda Nobusumi and the three of them openly carried Takeda Katsuyori, and then carried the pot on their backs, as the object of comparison, in fact, they secretly raised Oda Nobutada to a height similar to Takeda Katsuyori, and at the same time clearly pointed out Takeda Katsuyori's "shortcomings", which was really a clear and secret derogation, and exonerated Oda Nobunaga in front of Oda Nobunaga. But was Oda Nobutada's words a strategic contempt for the enemy?

Just when Sabei was a little puzzled, Oda Nobutada spoke: "If Takeda Katsuyori has half of his father's brutality, slaughtering one of the fifteen cities, shocking the people of the Higashimino country and the wealthy clan, plus the new defeat of the family's army, can there be anyone who dares to resist in these fifteen cities?" As a general, he could not get the full support of the Kiso family, who surrendered to him; And as the governor of the Takeda family, regardless of the winter affairs in the territory, he led the expedition, if there was a sudden incident in the territory, what should he do? ”
