Chapter 122: The New General

With a bang, the barrier door was opened, and four bewitching women appeared outside the door.

"Your Highness, the four of them are this year's graduates, and they are good at charm, intelligence, and assassination." These are all trained by Mochizuki Xue himself, and I saw Hosokawa Nobumoto's eyes widen in surprise, this is simply a beautiful agent only in the future.

"Your Highness, let them serve Your Highness tonight." Mochizuki said softly behind her back, hiding the sourness in her heart very well.

"Oh good, huh? What did you just say? Hosokawa Nobumoto thought his ears had misheard.

"Serving His Royal Highness, hehe, don't you feel so happy?" Hosokawa Nobumoto couldn't see Mochizuki Yuki's expression, but he could still vaguely feel Mochizuki Yuki's smiling expression.

"No kidding, when I'm a stallion." Hosokawa Nobumoto is based on the ideas of later generations, and he realizes that it is already good to have three.

"This is their first time, and they should dedicate themselves to their lordship, so that they can better carry out their tasks and not be bound by feelings."

"That can only mean that the ideological work has not been done well, and those female ninja guards of Iga and Koga are not like this. You can't just come and dedicate yourself every time a woman who graduates, if you suddenly graduate one hundred and eighty at once, wouldn't it squeeze me dry? Then there is no need to fight for hegemony, and the British name will die early. Hosokawa Nobumoto feels that he must stop this unrighteous and evil wind, otherwise I'm afraid that there will really be a long queue outside the door in the future, and then one by one come in the rounds, oh no, it's yourself, uh, it's not good, anyway, it's a very weird scene.

"Alright then, you've all met the lord, you must keep your mission firmly in mind, go down." Mochizuki immediately put on a stereotypical face, as if she was the eldest sister of the underworld.

"Yes!" The four girls respectfully saluted and gently closed the barrier.

"Where is Your Highness going to send them?" It wasn't until the fourth daughter left that Mochizuki Xue asked about the specific task, because according to the organization's charter, the members of the organization were all one-line contacts, and they were not allowed to inquire about each other's tasks. Of course, they are not single-handed, and they will be equipped with some members of peripheral organizations as subordinates, who are equivalent to the position of stationmaster.

"Send them to Satsuma, Tosa, Sagami, and Mutsu to open stations, and in the future, we will deploy the intelligence network throughout the country." After careful consideration, Hosokawa Nobumoto decided on four locations.

"Okay, the concubine will arrange it tomorrow." Mochizuki replied obediently.

"Tomorrow?" Hosokawa Nobumoto turned to look at Mochizuki Snow strangely, he remembered that Xue'er's errands would never be delayed until tomorrow.

"Tonight, let the concubine serve His Highness, no one can deprive the concubine of this requirement." Mochizuki smiled sekingly and slammed down Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"Hehe, who's afraid of whom? Come on! Hosokawa Nobumoto hugged him into his arms and launched a movement that turned the clouds and rain.

He knew what Xue'er was thinking, Ii Naotora was the first to give birth to the eldest son of the Hosokawa family, and now the Oda dog is also pregnant, only Xue'er has not moved, and he also wants to have the crystallization of love with Mochizuki Snow as soon as possible.

In February of the 11th year of Eiroku (1568), the shocking news came from Kyoto that due to the extreme non-cooperation of Ashikaga Yoshino, the "Kai Gongfang", the Miyoshi family arbitrarily put him under house arrest and used this to threaten Yoshiei, Yoshinoi's sister-in-law, Ashikaga Yoshiei. Forcing Ashikaga Yoshiei to bow his head and submit, while oppressing the imperial court, he signed and officially appointed Ashikaga Yoshiei as the 14th Shogun of the Muromachi Shogunate. For this reason, Oda Nobunaga urgently summoned all the retainers to come to the meeting.

"Let's all talk about it, what now?" Oda Nobunaga's face was gloomy, because the sudden appointment of the shogun broke his whole plan.

All the retainers, you look at me, I look at you, no one spoke, originally this matter was entrusted to Hosokawa Nobumoto. But when everyone looked at Hosokawa Nobumoto, they found that the latter was still happy.

It's no wonder, because Hosokawa Nobumoto's main room Oda dog has just given birth to a concubine for the Hosokawa family, and most of them are still in Devon City, celebrating Hosokawa Nobumoto. Because of the sudden summoning of the lord, one by one they hurried over, and the joy on their bodies had not yet dissipated.

"Rokuro, tell me about it." Seeing that no one answered, Oda Nobunaga, although he knew that the Hosokawa family was overjoyed, had to call the name of the chief officer.

"The lord doesn't need to worry, everything is under the control of his subordinates." Hosokawa Nobumoto replied confidently, others don't know the direction of history, but he knows that because the hastily appointed general of the Miyoshi family this time will end up being a complete big joke.

"Huh? All under control? Oda Nobunaga was stunned by what he said, and the rest of the retainers didn't know why, the general's position was robbed, and there was no more to play, how could he control it?

"My lord! Ladies and gentlemen! Everyone knows that the continuation of this general, according to the order of the concubines, is headed by His Royal Highness Yiqiu, and His Royal Highness Yiwei is only very reluctant. Now that the Miyoshi family has taken advantage of the interests of His Royal Highness Yoshiwei under house arrest, forcing an unjustified Ashikaga Yoshiei to succeed him, his approach will inevitably be unpopular, and the world will definitely not agree with it. Hosokawa Nobumoto paused here and asked them to digest it first.

"Therefore, the Miyoshi family will reap the consequences of this stinky move, and His Royal Highness Yiqiu will definitely be anxious at this time. The lord only needs to show favor to His Royal Highness Yiqiu now, and he will definitely come to vote gladly! After saying that, Hosokawa Nobugen quietly waited for Oda Nobunaga's decision.

"Good! Then by..."Oda Nobunaga was about to appoint Hosokawa Nobumoto to contact, but after thinking about it, he just liked his son-in-law, isn't it inappropriate to go out now, but if someone else is appointed, doesn't that mean that Hosokawa Nobumoto's previous achievements will be wiped out?

"My lord, my subordinates are willing to go." Hosokawa Nobumoto knew what was going on at a glance, and he didn't want his credit to be cleared.

"Then since you asked for it, go early and return early, if this matter is successful, you will be credited with the first credit." Oda Nobunaga finally agreed, after all, Hosokawa Nobumoto was the most suitable candidate. Because the place where he went was the Asakura family, and the head of the Asakura family, Asakura Yoshikage, was his brother-in-law.

"Thank you for your trust, and your ministers will live up to your lord's high expectations!" Hosokawa Nobumoto bowed heavily, this matter has been completed, and the position of the commander of the first army is not able to run.

"In addition, the adjustment of the North Ise side is going well, since last year, all the big and small wealthy families are looking forward to the wind, and I have decided to take advantage of the current situation to send troops to North Ise to consolidate the position of my family!" Oda Nobunaga decided to take a two-pronged approach, and this time Hosokawa Nobumoto was unable to participate in the war.

Hosokawa Nobumoto, who returned home, first went to visit the Oda dog who was doing confinement, and the latter pouted, his face was full of displeasure, and he kept muttering about his brother or something.

"This time I went out not only to pick up His Royal Highness Yiqiu and come down to Minong, but more importantly, to show His Highness Yiqiu the majesty of my family's army, I will lead the Netherworld Iron Cavalry to go together, and Xue'er will also follow." After Hosokawa Nobumoto arranged his home, he immediately set off for Omi Province.
