As soon as the clan clan led the army to Matsukura Castle, his butt had not yet sat firmly, and he saw the close attendant Hikomiko Emon walking in quickly, and said, "Report, the chief attendant of the main hall, Hide-sei Tanigawa, is asking to see you outside the door, and I ask the lord to decide."

After hearing this, the clan couldn't help but frown, why did this Hasegawa Shuichi come, after Nobunaga gave him the Hida Gold Mine before, he made it clear that he would not help the family from then on, since this is the case, then there must be nothing good for him to come this time, don't listen to the Takeda family to go to Luohou, let yourself lead the army to help the war.

In the face of the Takeda Army in Hida, even if he uses all his strength, he is not sure of winning, how can he still have extra military strength to help him, but I want to think about it, but this Hasegawa Shuichi can't be seen, although he is now a small big name, and his autonomy has greatly increased, but no matter how he says, he is also a retainer of the Oda family, and this side is still a must-see, thinking of this, I only heard the clan said: "I know the way, let him come to the living room." ”

After a short time, I saw Hasegawa Shuichi walking in quickly, and as soon as he came to the front of the clan, he saluted and said, "I have seen Takayama in Shimohasegawa Shuichi." ”

The clan and this Hasegawa Shuichi are already familiar with each other, so all the politeness was directly omitted by him, and he just listened to him go straight to the point and asked, "I don't know what is the important matter for Lord Hasegawa to come this time." ”

Seeing the seriousness of the Takayama clan's question, Hasegawa Shuichi didn't dare to joke, but he quickly replied: "Back to Takayama-sama, the lord ordered you to go to Gifu immediately to discuss important matters." ”

The clan couldn't help but secretly complain, and he didn't need to ask to know the way. Oda Nobunaga must have recruited him for the sake of the Takeda family's Shangluo, and it seems that after seeing him, he has to think of something to say, and he will not send troops to help in the war, and if it really doesn't work, then he can only tell him the Takeda family's movements that he and Takenaka Hanbei guessed that day.

In the assessment room of the castle tower of Gifu Castle, dozens of retainers with the status of a general and above sat below. Although there are a lot of people, seeing that they are doing themselves one by one, let alone whispering. No one even dared to move, for no other reason than Oda Nobunaga, who was sitting on the main seat, had an extremely ugly face.

Now the retainers have heard that the Takeda family is going to Luo, if that's all there is to it. They believe that the lord will never be like this, when the Imagawa family went to Luo, the military strength was ten times that of the family, and the lord's face was not so ugly, it is said that this time the army of the family has the advantage, and the lord should not be like this.

But they still don't know that Takeda Shingen will not only lead a large army to Shangluo, but also that he has contacted the forces around the family to attack the family together, if only one of the forces is strong, the Oda family is certainly not afraid. But if they unite and attack from all directions, then this force should not be underestimated.

After a while, Oda Nobunaga, with a gloomy face, asked, "Who hasn't arrived!" ”

Naomasa Ho, who was standing behind him, was now afraid that the lord would ask this, and he had already read it carefully just now. All the retainers who were notified by the lord had already arrived at this moment, but they did not see the figure of Lord Takayama.

Although Matsukura Castle is not close to Gifu Castle, even if it is far, it is far from the wise lord who is currently serving as the director of Kyoto in Yamashiro Province, but now that the wise lord has arrived, Takayama has not yet appeared. This seems to be a bit unreasonable, no matter who didn't come, with the lord's current appearance, he didn't have any good fruit to eat.

Although he wanted to defend the Takayama clan, but now that the lord asked openly, he couldn't help but answer, so he hurriedly came to Nobunaga and said stubbornly: "Back to the lord, Takayama-sama ......"

"Report to the lord, Lord Takayama has already arrived outside the castle tower, and please ask the lord to decide."

Although it was not yet summer, Hasegawa Shuichi was afraid that he would miss the hour, so he ran all the way up from the bottom of the mountain, and at this moment I saw him sweating profusely, and as soon as he finished speaking, he gasped for breath. …,

And Ho Naomasa heard that Takayama-sama had come, so he was relieved, and it seemed that he couldn't stand this scolding.

"Does this bastard not know that there is a big matter to discuss in the Dao, and dare to come now, hurry up and let him get me in, if he is slow, he will look good." I only heard Nobunaga roar, and his voice was so loud that even the clan clans who were waiting to be summoned at the entrance of the castle tower could hear it clearly.

Now the clan felt a little puzzled in his heart, Nobunaga thought that it had been a long time since he had such a big temper, and this time he didn't know what it was for, and it was difficult to do it because of the Takeda family's Shangluo? Well, it should be for this.

The Oda family has been smooth sailing since it was developed, and I'm afraid that only the famous Takeda family can make Nobunaga feel such pressure.

And just as he thought of this, he saw Hasegawa Shuichi rushing over, panting and saying weakly: "Lord Takayama, the lord is in the assessment room, please go." When he said this, he suddenly reminded in a low voice: "Lord Gaoshan, the lord doesn't seem to be looking very good, and after the lord sees the lord, you need to be careful." ”

Even if he didn't remind him, the clan had already known that Nobunaga was in a rage now, but he still thanked Hasegawa Shuichi for his kindness and didn't go in the direction of the assessment room.

"The subordinate Gaoshan clan sect is the lord." As soon as the clan sect entered the assessment room, he spoke.

"Bastard, how long are you going to keep me waiting, are you not crawling here?"

He knew that as long as he opened his mouth to explain, no matter whether the reason was sufficient or not, Nobunaga would be more irritable, and this was completely self-inflicted, so he only listened to him and did not defend himself, and replied sincerely: "It's the lord, the subordinates are guilty, and the lord is punished." ”

The clan said so happily, it was because he knew that for this little thing, Nobunaga would not do anything to himself at all, and he was also the most important minister in the family, even if Nobunaga was angry, he still knew the importance of the way, and sure enough, as soon as he said this, Nobunaga lost his temper.

I heard Nobunaga say with a gloomy face, "Don't let me go back to my seat yet." ”

The assessment meeting was officially held as the clan sat down, only to hear Nobunaga speak: "The matter of the Takeda family's Shangluo has become a foregone conclusion, and it is not only like this, as far as I know, this battle, not only the Takeda family, but also the large and small forces around the family will also attack the family together with the Takeda family's Shangluo, and this time the family will face an unprecedented crisis." ”

Speaking of this, he only heard Nobunaga say to the attendants behind him: "Ho Naomasa, hand over the collected information to the retainers for circulation." ”

This is the first time that the retainers have heard the word crisis from the mouth of the lord, and the lord, who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, actually felt a little frightened, but it seems that the matter has become serious enough to make the Oda family perish.

Since the Oda family seized Mino and became a powerful force with a million stones, the retainers all thought that the Oda family was far from extinction, and no longer had to worry about destruction, as the family became stronger and stronger, their confidence was also increasing, and today, they finally woke up to the fact that although the family was strong, it was by no means to the point of peace of mind.

As soon as Naomasa walked down, Shibata Katsuie didn't care about the rudeness, snatched the codex in his hand and began to flip through it quickly.

As the codex was opened by him, the retainers could see that his brows were getting tighter and tighter, and his face was getting more and more ugly, and Sakuma Nobumori, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Shibata Katsuie's face showing such an expression.

It can be said that he knows Shibata Katsuya very well, as long as it is a war, then there should be an excited expression on his face, but now his face is so ugly, which is enough to show that this battle is probably really difficult to deal with, so as soon as Shibata Katsuya raised his head, he grabbed the codex. …,

Soon the Codex was in the hands of the clan, and although he and Takenaka Hanbei had already guessed that there would be forces from around to participate in this battle, they were still a little surprised to see that the enemy's total strength would reach more than 60,000 and that they would attack from different directions.

But when he looked down a little more, he was somewhat relieved, and saw that it was written that the enemy would attack the house on June 1st, and today was May 20th, which meant that there were still eleven days to prepare, and these ten days were enough time for the Oda family to make arrangements.

Don't look at the Oda family, in addition to the military strength left in the territory to guard, the ashigaru can only be used about 45,000 people, but the Oda family's army is all elite, and then look at the forces other than the Takeda family, most of them are still mainly agricultural soldiers, although there are a lot of people, but as long as Oda Nobunaga divides several armies and takes a defensive position in the face of these forces, it is not easy for the enemy to attack the territory.

And while taking a defensive position on all fronts, as long as Oda Nobunaga concentrates his superior forces to repel the Takeda family's Kamiluo army in one fell swoop, then the remaining forces may have to retreat, and even if they still have the courage to continue fighting, then Oda Nobunaga's army can be repelled one by one if they turn around, so the Oda family seems to be in danger, but the clan believes that as long as it is handled properly, then there is no need to worry too much.

And looking down further, the clan couldn't control his excitement and couldn't help laughing, but the moment he laughed, whether it was Oda Nobunaga or the Oda family retainers present, their eyes were all focused on the clan, and the clan knew that his performance was indeed a little excessive, so he hurriedly lowered his head.

The clan didn't know that it was he who smiled so casually, and even Oda Nobunaga couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed, although Nobunaga still didn't know why the clan was laughing, but he knew that the clan had already figured out a way to let the family survive this crisis. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
