Chapter 259: Seven Guards Break the City and Kill Prisoners Higashimino Takeda Invades
After consulting with Tsuda Nobusumi, Sabei withdrew from continuing the attack on Katori Castle Honmaru. Returning to the house where he had taken refuge temporarily, Sabei saw Sukeemon sitting on the ground panting. When Sukeemon saw Sabei returning, he immediately asked his brother to help him remove the black lacquer he was wearing.
Seeing this, Sabei first stopped Sukeemon, who was about to get up, and then said to the retainers beside him: "We have already discussed with Lord Tsuda, let's go collect the loot first, and we will only take the more complete equipment!" ”
After hearing this, Fujido Takatora and the others immediately took their men to collect the weapons that were too late, while Suzuki Heavy Industries stayed where he was with the Taoya brothers and asked in a low voice to Sabei, "My lord, Katori Castle Honmaru was attacked by the lord, and the lord just gave up the merits to Tsuda-sama?" ”
Hearing this, Sabei smiled and said, "Tsuda-sama and I are close relatives, as long as you don't have much opinion, I think you can give this merit to Tsuda-sama, Goroubei, why do you think this is inappropriate?" ”
Suzuki Heavy Industries shook his head after hearing this and said: "I don't have any opinion, obviously everyone wants to collect the spoils more, after all, this is much better than sharing profits from the merits of the lord!" ”
At this time, Shinsuke Yamashita suddenly laughed, and then Suzuki Heavy Industries and Sukeemon also laughed. Sabei was stunned for a moment, before he understood, and then said with a smile: "Don't say this kind of thing in the future, after all, I am a new ginseng, although it has become a sect now, but it still can't be compared with those genealogy and Owari people; Don't talk about it! ”
Except for the weapons that were clearly marked with the Tsuda and Oda family crests, the relatively complete equipment on the battlefield was collected by the Ming Guard army. Most of the remaining weapons are mutilated and damaged, but there are quite a few of them.
After some fighting, Tsuda Nobusumi also captured the Honmaru achievements of Katori Castle. Although the surrendered group begged Tsuda Nobussumi and Sabei to take their lives, Tsuda Nobusumi insisted on killing the people in the city to avenge Tsuda Hidesei.
Although Sabei wanted to stop Tsuda Nobusumi from killing prisoners, but thinking of Tsuda Nobusumi's righteousness of revenge and the role of killing thousands of police officers in one crowd, Sabei just avoided this killing of prisoners of war, and didn't say anything, just keep the bottom line, and don't have to foolishly persuade the ancients with the concept of modern civilization.
After capturing Katori Castle, Tsuda Nobusumi immediately sent someone to report the situation to Yamashiro. A day later, Tsuda Nobusumi and Sabei also received news that Oda Nobutada had led his men to attack Nakae Castle. After briefly explaining the situation, the attendants sent by Oda Nobutada informed the two young masters, Oda Nobutada, that they had ordered the two to move south to Kuwana Castle.
After sending someone to see off Oda Nobutada's close attendants, Sabei said to Tsuda Nobusumi: "Seven soldiers, if the young master captures Kuwana City, then the next step should be to cross the water and land on the island!" The monks of the temple are much more difficult to deal with than these people! ”
After listening to Sabei's words, Tsuda Shinsumi turned his head and said: "The more than 10,000 troops under the young master are not something that those monks can stop, go and clean up briefly, let's get ready to go!" ”
After arranging a team of men and horses to guard the booty, Tsuda Nobusumi and Sabei left Katori Castle and headed south towards Kuwana County.
After the war, Katori Castle looked even more depressed after Sabei and the others left, and the sea breeze blew on Yamashita Shinsuke's face, making Yamashita Shinsuke even more chilly. Shinsuke Yamashita who stood in front of the door of Honmaru and looked at the charred pits, exhaled hot air to warm his hands, and then looked at the scattered pits on the ground in Honmaru, and the shock that lingered in his mind was the one he had when he entered Honmaru yesterday.
Sabei, who was walking on the road south, carefully observed the surrounding situation, but was told by the ninja who was exploring the way that the surrounding people had evacuated yesterday, and as for where to go, there were probably only two options: fleeing outside Kuwana County or crossing the water to Kanshoji Temple and Nagashima Castle.
After less than half a day's journey, Sabei and the others arrived near Kuwana Castle, but after exploring, they found that Oda Nobutada had not yet arrived. So Sabei and Tsuda Nobusumi took the initiative to build a simple camp under Kuwana Castle, and put their family crest military flags and Oda papaya flags at the front of the camp.
After another half a day, Oda Nobutada's army still did not reach Kuwana Castle, and just when Sabei thought that something was wrong, Shibata Katsumasa rushed to the Oda army camp in front of Kuwana Castle.
After staring nervously at the Oda army for a long time, the crowd in Kuwana Castle found that the Oda army with butterfly patterns and guard patterns had withdrawn from the castle. The confused crowd naturally did not dare to attack, once they were hit by the Oda army's fishing and field ambush tactics, it was only a matter of time before Kuwana Castle was captured by more than 10,000 Oda troops, although they did not attack.
Sabei, who was galloping on the road, quickly thought about whether the Takeda family's attack on Higashimino was a false shot or a weak entry, but until he led the crowd to Sawa Mountain Castle overnight, Sabei did not guess the intentions of the Takeda family. Isn't this the time for Little Tiger to fight for power within the family? How could you take the liberty of sending troops to Higashiminon?
With questions, Sabei and Tsuda Nobusumi saw Oda Nobutada, and before they could salute, Oda Nobutada saw the two, and before Sabei could speak, Oda Nobutada stepped forward and grabbed the arms of the two and said, "Katori Castle will be handed over to Niwa Nagahide for disposal, and you will rush back to Gifu Castle with me tomorrow." ”
Sabei looked at Oda Nobutada, who looked a little anxious in front of him, stepped forward and bowed his head and said: "Young master, as the future governor of the Oda family, I hope you can be calm and steady in case of trouble, and not be alarmed, otherwise it will only make your retainers more nervous and uneasy, and it will make the situation worse!" ”
Oda Nobutada shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Sabei, I understand the reason, and Gorou Zuo also admonished me before, but I really don't know what to do. ”
After hearing this, Tsuda Nobusumi lowered his head and asked Oda Nobutada, "Young Master, when did the news come?" ”
"Early this morning, when I was about to go to Kuwana Castle from Nakae Castle, my father sent someone to inform me that the Takeda family was going to Higashiminon!" Oda Nobutada answered Tsuda Nobusumi's question without hesitation.
At this time, Sabei said to Oda Nobutada: "Young master, don't worry, the lord just told you that the Takeda family went out to fight Higashimino, and other things haven't been told to you, this side means that the lord already has a strategy in his heart..."
Before Sabei finished speaking, Oda Nobutada interrupted Sabei's words and said to the two people in front of him: "The news that the Takeda family is going to fight in Higashimino is the close attendant of the guard Atsu!" ”
Sabei consciously closed his mouth when he heard this, and he wanted to be a little self-righteous, okay, just as if nothing had happened just now.
Tsuda Nobusumi looked at Sabei with an embarrassed face, bowed his head to Oda Nobutada, and said, "The young master is worried..."
"That's true, if Ah Song is involved in the struggle within the Takeda family, things will be difficult." Oda Nobutada looked at his cousin and sister-in-law, who were slightly older than him, and spat out a sentence with deep affection.
Although Sabei already has a family, he is still numbed by the flesh. After learning that Oda Nobutada only told himself and Tsuda Nobusumi the inside story, Sabei pondered for a moment and said to Oda Nobutada: "Since the lord has informed the young lord of this matter, it will be decided by the young lord with full discretion, and it is not good for me to interfere with the young master's thoughts, but I hope that after the young master finishes thinking, he can inform me and others!"
