"I see, is there respect between people?" Tanaka Osamu muttered, and then suddenly made a big bow and said, "Thank you, Lord Hosokawa Yagata!" There are no regrets in the future, and I hope that Lord Hosokawa can return the world to a bright future. ”

"Definitely!" The short words are sonorous and powerful.

"Then I'll take my leave." After speaking, Tanaka Osamu slowly picked up his beloved waki, removed the scabbard, and gently wiped it with a white cloth.

"You don't have to die at all, I promised your brother that I won't embarrass your family."

"It's not for the family, it's just my lovely little brother who is scared if there is no one on the road. He... Childhood... I'm most afraid of walking at night. Tanaka choked up, his fingertips wiping away the tears from the blade and slowly inserting it into his abdomen, the mournful poetry echoing in the setting sun.

Born as a brother~, died as a brother~;

There is no joy in life, and there is no fear in death;

Meet~, owe each other~,

They are still brothers in the afterlife.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Pass the order! An hour of silence (five minutes) for a stick of incense to all the deceased. Hosokawa Nobumoto, who closed his eyes in silent mourning, seemed to see the familiar figure again, as if he heard the familiar song again: Accompany my love ~~ with you ~~ forever ~~.

Wada Mountain Castle was unexpectedly taken, which touched everyone's nerves, the sincerity and fear of Misaku Castle, the fear of the Rokkaku father and son, the admiration of the Oda family's ministers, the silent look at each other of the Asai family, the gritted teeth of the Matsudaira family, and Oda Nobunaga has not been able to stop laughing.

At the head of Kesaku Castle, Yoshida Shigetaka looked at Wada Mountain Castle in the distance without saying a word.

Pedal Pedal Ped A young warrior climbed the wall and came straight behind him.

"Father! It's windy at night, so you better go down and rest, don't hurt yourself. "The person who spoke was Yoshida Shigetaka's son, Yoshida Shigeta, he was Yoshida Shigetaka's old son, and he was also very fond of him. Archery also inherits the fine tradition of the Yoshida family, and he can pull the heavy vine bow at a young age, and he has just turned fifteen this year, and this battle is his first battle after the Yuan service, and this afternoon he also asked for a samurai from the Oda family.

"Got it, you go down and rest first, and keep an eye on those guys from Koga." Yoshida Shigetaka commanded weakly, as if he was a little older, looked at his sister-in-law who walked down, sighed softly, and muttered, "Hey... Originally, I wanted to hold on for a few more years, so that he could take over the position of family governor after some more training, but unfortunately it seems that time is running out, and it is really reassuring that he is so young. ”

That night, Kinoshita Hideyoshi arranged for the 300 men he had brought from Sumamata Castle to disperse in the camp, each holding two three-foot-long torches, pretending to be the main force to deceive the defenders of Kesaku Castle.

These people have all experienced the night castle of Sumamata, and they are the best at bluffing, and the remaining 8,000 main forces quietly went up the mountain and suddenly launched an attack on Kesaku Castle.

"Huh? Enemy attack! Enemy attack! "The sound of warnings came and went in the castle.

"Quick! Get them down! Archery! Archery! "Yoshida Shigetaka commanded Hachimoto to rain down arrows and shoot down the Oda army in large numbers.

"Kill! Attack me! "Sakuma Nobumori and Wasuka Koroku, as the vanguard, led the army to raid the Otemon Gate of Kesaku Castle head-on, but they were frequently beaten back by the bows and arrows and iron cannons of Misaku Castle.

"Damn!" Sakuma Nobumori thumped his chest angrily and failed to break through the city gate at the first time.

"Kill!" Niwa Nagahide's retainer Hayashi Tong led the second echelon to attack.

"Samurai of Mikawa! It's time to show our martial name! Breach the gates! Kill! "The Mikawa people led by Matsudaira Shinichi attacked Otemon with arrows and bullets.

"Hold on! Resist me! Don't run! "Jianbu Hideaki commanded the army to defend the city gate.

Boom! Boom!

Crunch! Boom!

Otemon eventually collapsed.

"Kill!" Matsudaira Shinichi was the first to storm the gate, followed by the Hayashi Tsu clan, Sakuma Moriji, Takenaka Hanbei, and Kimura Shigezi as they entered the castle together.

"Array! Kill! "After being breached, the Hexagonal Army, under the leadership of Hideaki Shobe, formed a gun formation to resist the Oda Army that entered the city.

"Drink!"

"Kill!"

"Ahh The sound of crackling, clanging, and clashing weapons filled the entire Misaku Castle with screams one after another.

"Die!" Maeda Toshiie, who was incorporated into Kinoshita Hideyoshi's troops, took the lead in charging and killing the enemy.

"Shame on the enemy! I'm going to take off his clothes! "Maeda Toshiya holds a head high and is a samurai of the Roxagonal family.

"Kill! Take Misaku Castle! There's a reward for everyone! Kinoshita Hideyoshi took advantage of the situation to lead the army to fight, and the morale of the Roxagon Army plummeted and they fled one after another.

"Father! Father! Yoshida Shigetsuna's face was covered in blood, and he stumbled in front of Yoshida Shigetaka. The gate has been breached by the Oda army, and Misaku Castle can't hold it! ”

"Kid, are you hurt?" Yoshida Shigetaka looked at the wound on Yoshida Shigetsuna's shoulder distressedly. "Quick! Go through the back door, let's go! ”

Yoshida Shigetaka, Jianbu Hideaki and his party fled in a hurry from the back door, and in one day, the Shangluo coalition army captured two cities in a row.

"Kill!" Outside the castle of Kannonji Temple, Sakai Masashi led a thousand ashigaru to fight with Rokkaku Yoshiding, who went out of the city to rescue.

During the battle, Rokkaku Yoshiding learned the news of the fall of Kesaku Castle and Hetian Mountain Castle, this guy didn't even think about it, he didn't even return to Guanyin Temple Castle, and fled without a trace with his subordinates, and the Rokkaku Yoshiken father and son who were watching the battle in the city were so angry that they stomped their feet.

"Haha! Good! Thanks to Rokuro's ability to lay out in advance, he was able to attack the city so quickly, and you should be the first to take the lead! "Oda Nobunaga is now proud of the spring breeze, and in just one day, he took the bridgehead in front of the Kannonji Castle.

"Thanks to the Lord Hongfu!" Hosokawa Nobumoto didn't expect it to go so well, and thought it would take a night.

"Good! Today, Monkey and Sakai Masashi are also doing well, as well as Maeda Toshiya and others. Rest well tonight and attack Guanyin Temple City early tomorrow morning! It's up to you to perform. Oda Nobunaga praised a few more people, and the Tokugawa retainer Matsudaira Shinichi was rewarded with a tung leather suit for his bravery in battle.

In the early morning of September 13th, the Shangluo coalition army came to the city of Guanyin Temple with high morale, and the hexagonal army defending the city had an expression of dead parents.

"Attack!" With a wave of his hand, the Oda army rushed towards Kannonji Castle like a tide.

"Give it to me! Who dares to take a step back! Lao Tzu cut off someone's head! Shibata Katsuya held his breath and vowed to take the lead today. Seeing that many people in the family have made outstanding achievements one by one, there are already people like Hosokawa Nobumoto, who are faintly beginning to press themselves.

"Up! Give it to me! The first one to capture is rewarded! "Kinoshita Hideyoshi is grabbing credit all the time.

"Damn monkey! Do you even want to climb on my head! Give it to me! Damn it! What are you guys doing! Watch your heads! "Shibata Katsuya is fighting a nest fire, and seeing the monkeys on the side also attacking frantically, there is no progress here.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Ahh The sound of the city gate crashing, the sound of dying and struggling, filled the entire Guanyin Temple City.

Rokkaku Yoshiji's little heart has also been pounding and panicking, yesterday Rokkaku Yoshiding took away a thousand troops, making the originally weak Guanyin Temple City, even more precarious.
