In Owari Iwakura Castle, Oda Nobuyoshi stood in the castle tower and looked out of the castle depressedly, Oda Nobunaga led a large army to surround Iwakura Castle again, and this time he also had the righteous name of the Owari guardian.

"Rokuro! Is there any better advice for this siege of Iwakura Castle to be able to capture it faster? Oda Nobunaga asked Hosokawa Nobumoto directly this time.

The main agenda of this military meeting is to take Iwakura Castle as soon as possible, and Hosokawa Nobumoto thought for a while and said, "My lord, I have a plan to take Iwakura Castle quickly." ”

"Oh? What is Rokuro's plan? Come on. "Oda Nobunaga is now relying more and more on Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"Yes, we can do this...."Hosokawa Nobumoto explained his plan in detail, which caused everyone to applaud again and again, and then went down to prepare according to the tasks assigned by them.

"Kill!!" "Burn!!" Shibata Katsuie led 450 cavalry to set fire to Iwakura Castle Shimo-cho, making it a bare castle and surrounded it with deer walls on all sides, creating a long-term siege. Hosokawa Nobumoto, Takigawa Kazuki, Mori Kasenari and others led the headquarters to fire rockets and iron cannons into the city for several days, and the 800 defenders in the city did not dare to rush out of the city in the face of twice their own troops, and only hoped that the Oda army could withdraw as soon as possible.

"My lord! My lord! Please, let the villains sow seeds, if you don't sow seeds, you miss the season, and there will be no harvest this year, then the villains will really starve to death~! "The peasants of Raishida Village are pleading with the samurai of the Oda family, who are forbidden to sow rice seeds, and this kind of desperate tricks can be seen everywhere in the territory of the Iwakura Oda family.

[I really don't understand the positioning of this castle and town, the location of the countryside, the lord deliberately separated the castle from the farmland village and town, which has been regarded as a strict class distinction, and it is not at all like the Chinese city that protects the people.] Hosokawa Nobumoto was bored in the big tent and commanded the iron artillery team to harass and shoot in turns, thinking about his own desperate plan [Is this simply a handle for the enemy, I have a hundred ways to deal with such an enemy, and make him want to die. ]

"My lord! Woooooo My lord!! Oops! Ah! The weeping peasant tried to plead with the samurai again, but was rewarded with a leather whip.

"Stop!" A burst of shouts stopped the samurai's follow-up movements.

"Subordinates, see the lord!" The samurai looked back and saw that it was Oda Nobunaga, and hurried to pay his respects.

"Bastard! How can you treat the townspeople who are working hard to farm like this! Oda Nobuken is about to be finished! These will be the townspeople of my Oda family from now on, so treat them well and let them sow seeds, and this year's harvest will be my Nobunaga. Oda Nobunaga reprimanded the samurai, and moved the townspeople to tears, no one had ever been so kind to the peasants.

The group of townspeople crawled on the ground, respectfully watching the departing figure of Oda Nobunaga before standing up. "Mr. Kamisuke-sama really sympathizes with us." "Yes, yes, in the future, we will definitely live a happy life under the jurisdiction of Lord Shangsuke."

And Oda Nobunaga has already played in a village with the samurai named Ryoda Masada, and day after day repeats Ryoda Masada's bullying and oppression of the townspeople, and when the townspeople pleaded bitterly and hoped to show mercy, Oda Nobunaga appeared on the scene, reprimanded the arrogant and unreasonable samurai, punished the ashigaru who took the opportunity to plunder, saved the suffering townspeople, and won the unanimous support of the townspeople who were grateful to Dade. And they will go on a month-long tour to completely gather all the townspeople of the Iwakura Oda family.

"Yajiro! Come home to dinner with your mother! "Momotaro! Your mom is calling you home for dinner! "At the foot of Iwakura Castle, there are townspeople who come every day to call their relatives home, and there are ashigaru guards in Iwakura Castle who are guarding the castle every day, which makes people panic.

Oda Nobuyoshi has been tossed and almost collapsed, during the day outside the arrow shouting, at night on the iron cannon harassment shooting, two days ago there was a small number of mutiny, directly opened the city gate, if not for himself in time to clear this group of traitors, I am afraid Iwakura Castle has already changed hands.

Two months later, Iwakura Castle was already filled with despair, and there were only 300 defenders in the city. In the past two days, the retainers of the Oda family have been clamoring to storm Iwakura Castle and kill Oda Nobuken, but they have been pressed by Oda Nobunaga.

On this day, a military meeting was held, but Oda Nobunaga did not arrive.

"Yiyi, what do you say the lord is thinking? Iwakura Castle is already within reach, so why not capture it yet? Shibata Katsuya turned his head and asked Takigawa Kazuyi who was in the next hand.

"Lord Shibata, I don't understand the intentions of the lord below, I think the lord has other plans, right? But why hasn't Yonegoro come yet? Takigawa said with a bow, then looked at the empty Maza on the opposite side.

"Huh?" Shibata Katsuya found out that Niwa Nagahide was not there, so he asked Hosokawa Nobumoto: "Rokuro! What about Yonegoro? Why didn't you come? ”

[Cut, he's not my subordinate, how do I know.] But since people asked, they couldn't be disrespectful to their seniors, and said, "I don't know about this, maybe there's something important." After speaking, he also looked at Maza, who was empty-handed, suspiciously.

"The lord has arrived!" Hasegawa Hashisuke's voice came from the door, and then Oda Nobunaga walked in from outside the tent, and Niwa Nagahide followed in, and all the retainers knelt down on one knee, "Lord!" ”

"Hmm!" Oda Nobunaga sat down on the throne and said, "Since I became the governor of the family, there have been many disputes within the domain, but thanks to the efforts of the princes, now that Owari Province has been unified, it is time to prepare to retake Narumi Castle, and everyone will start working hard for this goal in the future!" ”

"Oh!" All the retainers agreed in unison, though they were still very confused.

Oda Nobunaga didn't wait for the retainers to ask, and directly named Niwa Nagahide, "Yagoro, tell everyone." ”

"Yes!" Niwa Nagahide bowed to Oda Nobunaga, and then turned to the retainers and explained, "Yesterday night, I had already entered the castle and persuaded Isemori-sama to agree to subdue my Oda family, and I am now waiting for the lord's fate outside the tent. ”

"Huh? What the? So we've won? "Won before the war was fought?" The people below were chattering, obviously not suitable for this kind of bloodless battle.

"Okay, it's over, I've decided to confiscate Oda Nobuyo's family and chase him down." Oda Nobunaga tapped Maza with a folding fan to signal quietness, "In addition, this battle is all thanks to Rokuro's strategy, so it should be a success!" Take the 1,800 koku of Kamikawa Village, Shimokawa Village, and Kita-Nitta Village around Mikawa Village as your knowledge and action! It's up to you to organize your territory as soon as possible, and look forward to your next performance on the battlefield. ”

"Thank you, Lord for the reward!" Hosokawa Nobumoto bowed his head in reply.
