In April of the second year of Motokame, spring blossoms bloom, and it is the season when the beautiful cherry blossoms are in full bloom.

In the castle of Devon, Oda gave birth to a baby girl, the first little princess of the Hosokawa family, nicknamed Sakura. Oda Nobunaga also came to visit the little princess on a rare occasion.

"Rokuro, the cherry blossoms are really iconic, and at first glance, they have inherited the beauty of my Oda family. Not bad, not bad. Oda Nobunaga looked at the female doll in Oda Inu's arms and was full of praise.

Sign? Good looks? Which eye do you see? Hosokawa Nobumoto couldn't help but complain in his heart, the face of the newborn baby was wrinkled, which was very different from what Oda Nobunaga said.

"Hehe... Is that. The men in the lord's family are all handsome and chic, and the women are all beautiful as flowers, which is all family inheritance. Hosokawa Nobumoto cheekily slapped his ass, causing Oda Nobunaga to laugh, as he deserved.

"If Wonder Pill can marry her as the main room, it will be a match made in heaven." Oda Nobunaga is now more and more pleasing to the eye.

"Huh?" As soon as Hosokawa Nobumoto heard this, he wondered, Wonder Pill said that it was Oda Nobunaga's eldest son, who was fifteen years old this year, and he should be in the Yuan service next year.

"What? Don't want to see your expression? Oda Nobunaga pretended to be angry and jokingly.

"It's not the lord, it's the honor of my Hosokawa family to be able to marry the lord. It's just that isn't the young master engaged to Takeda Shingen's daughter Matsuhime? Hosokawa Nobugen knew that the two were in a long-distance relationship, and they often exchanged letters, and even had love tokens.

"Humph! The reason why I decided to do this was just to delay the Takeda family. I didn't expect that stinky boy to be really emotional, and easily made a promise not to marry someone he had never met at all! Speaking of this, Oda Nobunaga was angry.

"And his slow-moving personality is really unbearable, not like me at all!"

"The young master has a gentle personality and a very good reputation, which is his unique personality charm. And his ability is also very outstanding, and the retainers are also very recognized and supported. "Hosokawa Nobugen has seen Marvel Maru, and he is much more modest in dealing with people, not as domineering as Oda Nobunaga.

"That's it, that's it. This world was beaten down by Lao Tzu, as long as he could defend the city, I only hate him for being so attentive to Song Ji, so hard that I don't know that this is just a delaying tactic? Will there be a battle between the Oda family and the Takeda family? Recently, the "Oda family encirclement network" has become more and more intense, and Oda Nobunaga has clearly felt the pressure. However, there is also good news, the Maori Yuan of the Western Kingdom is dead, removing one of his henchmen.

But at the same time, the surrounding forces felt more and more threatened by the Oda family, and it is said that the Takeda family had begun to secretly contact Shogun Yoshiaki, and it was not known whether any agreement had been reached.

"Don't worry, the young lord knows how to measure, and he is as affectionate as you. In the same way, he is just like you, he is good at making the strongest judgments, and he will not lose the big because of the small. "Listening to Oda Nobunaga's meaning, he didn't plan to let Wonder Maru really marry Matsuhime.

"You don't have to participate in the Nagashima Raiders next month, you go to Kyoto and knock General Yoshiaki for me, let him be honest, don't have some unrealistic ideas, let him be a good general with peace of mind, and ensure that he is okay." Otherwise... Hum! Oda Nobunaga's eyes were dazzling, and the murderous nature was once again revealed, and the surroundings instantly decreased several degrees.

"Wow... Wow... Wow...!" Sakura seemed to feel the cold, and she cried.

"Oh... Oh... Oh... Sakura doesn't cry, Sakura doesn't cry. Brother! Oda Inu glared angrily, blaming Oda Nobunaga for his murderous aura.

"Hahaha... Sakura doesn't cry, look! What is it? Hey? Hey! Oda Nobunaga withdrew his domineering spirit and turned back into a gentle uncle, and conjured a small puppet from his hand to make Sakura happy.

"Ahh "Sakura was attracted by the strange little man and happily stretched out her little hand.

"Thank you for your understanding." Hosokawa Nobugen knew that he would not participate in the Battle of Nagashima because Oda Nobunaga had made a decision in the face of Oda Inu's just birth of a princess.

In fact, this was an errand that Hosokawa Nobumoto secretly asked Oda Inu to beg, he knew that the Battle of Nagashima would kill many unarmed women and children, and his conscience in later generations made him unbearable to face this cruelty.

"Alright, alright. Remember! Only once! "Oda Nobunaga is also a smart man, once he can be considerate, but too much will violate his taboos.

"Yes! Your Majesty knows. Hosokawa Nobunaga breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the current Oda Nobunaga is becoming less and less affectionate, perhaps because he has experienced too many betrayals.

Five days later, Hosokawa Nobumoto led a team of 400 mounted samurai from Devon Castle and left Devon Bei in Devon Castle to ensure that nothing went wrong.

Then take Ono Avenue and enter the Sekigahara realm, where the thousand Sekihara Bby led by Hosokawa Haruyuki have been waiting for a long time.

"My lord! Sekihara has been assembled and is ready to go. "Hosokawa Haruyuki is also a lot more mature now, as Hosokawa Nobumoto's younger brother, he is strict with himself and makes up for his clumsiness.

"Hmm... Keep up, go. "The Hosokawa army entered the Omi Province in a mighty way, and Niwa Nagahide of Sawa Yamajo Castle was waiting outside the castle to welcome Hosokawa Nobumoto to stay in Sawa Yamajo.

"Niwa-sama! I'm sorry to keep you waiting so long, but you're just in the city. Hosokawa Nobumoto saw Niwa Nagahide standing on the side of the road from a distance, so he hurriedly whipped up his horse and dismounted to salute.

"Hehe... Hosokawa-sama doesn't have to worry about it, it's just a little thing. Let's go, let's go in, the banquet is ready, and we will take care of you and wash the dust. Haha..."Niwa Nagahide has a calm personality, is light on money and righteousness, and has an excellent reputation.

"Niwa-sama, please!" Hosokawa Nobumoto signaled Niwa Nagahide to go first, and the guest was as he pleased.

"Hosokawa-sama, please!" Niwa Nagahide pulled Hosokawa Nobumoto, and the two entered Sawa Yamashiro side by side.

As he walked, Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at the fortified castle, which had been the residence of Isano Motomasa, a retainer of the Asai family, but was persuaded by Niwa Nagahide to surrender in February of this year, and surrendered to Oda Nobunaga.

Oda Nobunaga also admired this fierce general, and rewarded him with a county in Takashima-gun in Omi Province, hoping to gain his loyalty.

After Isono Motomasa went to the new territory, Sawa Yamashiro was transferred to Niwa Nagahide, and continued to oppress the space of the Asai family, and the small friction between the two sides continued, and the war was on the verge of breaking out.

After spending two days in Sawa Yamajo, Hosokawa Nobumoto set out with his army and arrived in Kyoto on May 12, where Nakajima Akinobu knelt on the side of the road to greet the arrival of the lord. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
