"Father, you can't miss the opportunity, please think about it."

In a dimly lit secret room, there is a father and son planning something, and the night of Kuniyoshi Castle is about to pass, and this is the time when people are most tired.

"Needless to say, let's not talk about whether we can kill the Oda Palace, even if we kill it, how can a small Kuniyoshi Castle resist the revenge of the 20,000 army!" The candlelight reflected Awaya Katsuhisa, who had originally led the Oda coalition in a crusade against the Asakura family as a leading party.

The original intention was to rescue Wakasa Guardian, his lord Takeda Motoaki. I didn't want to be surrounded by Asai and Asakura, so I finally escaped, and now Oda Nobunaga lives in his Kuniyoshi Castle to rest.

"Father! As soon as Oda Nobunaga died, his men would be disheartened and would only want to flee from here. Besides, as long as the family holds on for one day, the 40,000 allied troops of Asakura and Asai will arrive, and by then the family will be a credit! "This is Awaya Katsuhisa's son, Awaya Katsunaga.

"But... I helped Oda Hall with my front foot, and I killed him with my back foot. This... It's against the righteousness of the samurai. Katsuhisa Awaya visibly began to hesitate.

"Father, I helped the Oda family this time to save my lord. Now that the Oda family has been defeated, if the family doesn't do something, I'm afraid the Asakura family will embarrass the lord! "Awaya Katsucho kept persuading, now the Oda army is sleepy and lacking, Oda Nobunaga lives here, and the assassination is indeed very likely to succeed.

"No, although the Oda family was defeated, it didn't hurt the muscles and bones, and only the Oda family had the strength to save the lord. If the Oda family is divided, the lord's rescue will be even more hopeless, and it will be difficult to see the light of day again! ”

"But Father, we can trade Oda Nobunaga's head for the freedom of the lord!"

"Say no more, I have made up my mind, and this matter must not be mentioned again. That's it! ”

"Father! …”

"Shut up!"

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Da Da...

"Who is it?" A knock on the door woke Oda Nobunaga.

"Lord, it's me, the ghost of the world."

"It's Zhengdong, come in, is there any news!"

The door was pulled open, revealing a ninja kneeling outside the door.

"Yes!"

Seki Masato entered the house, closed the door, and approached Oda Nobunaga and whispered.

"Oh? Is Awaya Katsucho opposed? Pressed down by Awaya Katsuhisa? ”

Seki Masato told Oda Nobunaga about the information he had heard, and he was the leader of the Oda family's secret ninjas.

"Humph! Get ready and get out of here! Oda Nobunaga got up and put on it directly, and left Kuniyoshi Castle overnight.

"My lord? When are you in a hurry to leave? Niwa Nagahide asked strangely as he followed Oda Nobunaga, it was still early in the morning.

"Yagoro, you stay, order Awaya Katsuhisa and Muto Tomoyoshi to hand over the hostages immediately and submit, otherwise wait to bear my wrath! Also, let the Tokugawa family serve as the palace army this time, so be it. With that, Oda Nobunaga left without looking back, and led his army out of Wakasa Province and into Omi Province, arriving at the western shore of Lake Biwa.

"Greetings to Danmasa-sama!" The Omi wealthy clan Kuchiki Mototsuna came to greet him in armor: "The mansion is ready, please move in." ”

"Well, hard work. Go first, and the army will come after that. Oda Nobunaga nodded, and then gave Matsunaga a look, who left knowingly and went to Kuchigi Valley Castle with Mototsuna.

At this time, Kinoshita Hideyoshi had been caught up by the Asakura coalition forces, and he fought and walked along the way, suffering heavy casualties. Fortunately, he was picked up by Tokugawa Ieyasu after the rupture of Wakasa Province and successfully repelled the Asakura coalition forces, otherwise Kinoshita Hideyoshi and his group would have really confessed to Echizen Province.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Lord Danzheng, please rest assured, it has been checked below, and Mototsuna Rotten is sincerely welcoming you." By testing Mototsuna's attitude, Matsunaga confirmed the authenticity of his fall to the Oda family.

"Good, enter the city!" Relieved, Oda Nobunaga stayed in the mansion provided by Mototsuna Kuchigi, and then retreated all the way to Kyoto with Mototsuna Kuchigi as his guide.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Hahaha! Monkey! I didn't expect you to be alive! Kinoshita Hideyoshi then rushed to Kyoto, and when everyone saw that he was not dead, they came to congratulate him.

"Hahaha, how can Lao Tzu die so easily, so that the person who dies under it is not yet born." Kinoshita Hideyoshi crossed his waist and looked like a villain.

"Oh my Kinoshita-sama, you also call yourself Lao Tzu, hahaha." Toshiya Maeda, who has a good relationship with him, is also bragging and farting on the side.

"I'm sorry Kinoshita-sama, where are the Omi people of my family? I don't think I saw it in the bottom. Hosokawa Nobumoto also came over at this time, but he was a little worried when he noticed that the people of Omi were not there.

"Oh they, the situation was urgent, and they stayed in Mumu Pass to serve as the palace army." Kinoshita Hideyoshi said nonchalantly.

"What! Stayed in Kimedo Pass? Do you treat them like outcasts! When Hosokawa Nobumoto heard this, he immediately became angry, and stepped forward and grabbed Kinoshita Hideyoshi's collar.

"Please let Hosokawa-sama go, you don't know the situation at the time, if it were you, you would be like this. As you have said, they are the best fit to serve as the temple army. Kinoshita Hideyoshi also said in an unkind tone.

"I'm rubbing, what kind of attitude do you have! How dare you talk to Lao Tzu like this! With that, Hosokawa Nobumoto raised his fist and gave Kinoshita Hideyoshi a blow, and then went up and kicked him in the lower abdomen.

The defenseless Kinoshita Hideyoshi was kicked to the ground by this fierce kick, and Hosokawa Nobumoto still didn't understand his hatred, and went up to kick Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who was curled up on the ground.

"Hosokawa-sama! Hosokawa-sama! Calm your anger! Calm your anger! Maeda Toshiya and the others saw that it was not good, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"T! That's Lao Tzu's soldiers! What to do with that is Lao Tzu's business! Why do you want them to die! Do you want to die for you! I'm going to kill you! The furious Hosokawa Nobumoto couldn't hold it at all, and punched and kicked Kinoshita Hideyoshi, and Kinoshita Hideyoshi didn't dare to fight back, so he could only roll on the ground with his head in his hands.

"Enough!" Oda Nobunaga's angry shouts came from behind.

Takigawa Kazuki, Ikeda Hengxing and other pro-Hosokawa samurai hurriedly came up and hugged Hosokawa Nobumoto and comforted him softly, for fear that Hosokawa Nobumoto would be angry for a while, and he would disregard Oda Nobunaga's face, which would not be good.

"I already know about it, and there is no way to do it. The monkey's 4,000 temple army was almost wiped out in the end, and if it hadn't been for the encounter with Takechiyo, it wasn't certain whether he would be dead or alive. Oda Nobunaga strode between the two.

"This account should be counted on the head of the hateful Asai family, and I will definitely make him pay for it!" Oda Nobunaga looked around and pointed the finger at Asai Nagamasa.

"That's it, the lord is right, it's all to blame on that damn Asai Nagamasa." Kinoshita Hideyoshi stopped wailing at this time, and stood up covering his face.

"Monkey!"

"Yes, my lord!"

"What was your attitude towards Rokuro just now!" With a kick, he kicked Kinoshita Hideyoshi again, "Apologize to Rokuro quickly!" ”

"Yes! Please calm Hosokawa-sama's anger, I don't mean to, please forgive me! Kinoshita Hideyoshi's ass was high, and he looked very humble.

"Humph!" Hosokawa Nobugen ignored him, saluted Oda Nobunaga, and left without looking back.

All this was seen in the eyes of Akechi Mitsuhide, and Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who felt insulted, had his nails dug deep into the dirt, and his face was resentful.
