Chapter 204: Take a step back

Chapter 204 takes a step back

Mekada Tsunakiyo, who was standing on the city wall, saw that the Asai army was less than 100 meters away from the city, and saw that Asai Nagamasa had already drawn his sword and pointed in the direction of Mekada Castle. ”

After the military momentum stopped, Asai Nagamasa clamped the horse's belly and urged the horse to step forward, although he didn't intend to accept the other party's surrender at all, but he couldn't refuse bluntly, otherwise it would be a little unreasonable, and if he let others know that he didn't accept the submission, when the family was fighting in the future, who else would dare to come to surrender, which would inevitably cause great trouble to the development of the family, and not accept the submission of the powerful wealthy family, it was only temporary, and after the reorganization of the family, it was also necessary to rely on them to fight for the Quartet.

So he wanted Kada Tsunakiyo to give up Shun by himself, and as for the method, Asai Nagamasa had already thought about it.

Accompanied by Asai Nagamasa to a distance of about fifty meters from the city, although he and this Kada Tsunashi have no grudges, but since the powerful family in the family has become strong, as long as it is a wealthy family, they are all disliked by Asai Nagamasa, so this attitude is really not much better, just listen to him said with a cold face: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly." ”

Seeing that Asai Nagamasa's face was not good, Mekada Tsunakashi couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and didn't dare to detour, while throwing the bloody human head in his hand towards Asai Nagamasa, he said: "I know that Lord Asai is coming, so I have killed Koichiro Hirai, the garrison of Mekada Town, to show his obedience." ”

After speaking, Mekada Tsunashi sighed and continued: "Lord Asai, the Rokkaku family and the family have a hatred for seizing the town, and the family is forced to become its vassal in order to keep the name of the family. ”

Outside the city, I saw a close attendant immediately run to the front, and presented the human head respectfully in front of Asai Nagamasa, Asai Nagamasa didn't even bother to look at it, in his opinion, this Kada Town garrison is an incompetent person, he is now dead or alive, the result is the same, even if he is not taken by Mekada Tsunakiyo, I think that the defenders in Kada Town are only a few hundred, and there is no danger to defend, when his army arrives, he can take the town with a snap of his fingers, so this is really not a merit.

I saw Asai Nagamasa wave his hand, and after the attendant retreated with his head in his arms, Asai Nagamasa opened his mouth and said, "Return? Okay, I'll accept your allegiance, but you're going to abandon the city and lead your retainers to Otani Castle to await a new appointment, are you willing? ”

Abandoning the territory? When the ancestor gave up the town of Mekada, it was already a great shame, and if he even gave up the territory, then what face would he have to survive in the world, even after his death, he was sorry for the ancestors of the Mekada family, if so, it would be better to fight with Asai Nagamasa and live and die with Mekada Castle. In this way, even under the Nine Springs, he can face the ancestors calmly.

Thinking of this, I saw that the eyes of the retainers under his command swept over the retainers one by one, and I saw the retainers hurriedly kneeling on the ground, and said in the middle: "Lord, we are all willing to fight to the death, for the lord, for the Kada family." ”

After listening to what Asai Nagamasa said just now, not only Mekada Tsunaki, but even all the retainers present no longer have any illusions, and even if the lord agrees to Asai Nagamasa's proposal, it belongs to the Asai family, as retainers, they will definitely try their best to dissuade it, although this Kada Castle is dilapidated, but it can be regarded as a reliance, if you really give up this city and follow Asai Nagamasa's army back to Kotani Castle, wouldn't you have no ability to resist, in case Asai Nagamasa turns his face, That's a dead end. Rather than die in obscurity, it is better to do it vigorously.

After seeing that the eyes of all the retainers under his command were firm and there was no flickering, he slowly pulled out the sword from his waist, and looked at the five thousand army under the city with a three-sheng tortoiseshell flower Ling family pattern with a resolute gaze, and was ready to be martyred for this city.

Asai Nagamasa saw that the plan succeeded, and smiled slightly, this is exactly the result he is willing to see, although in order to capture Mekada Castle, he will lose some of his elite banners, but it can solve the problem once and for all, so in Asai Nagamasa's opinion, even if there are some losses in this battle, as long as you can hold Mekada Town tightly in your hands, it is still worth it. ,

Since things are developing according to his own ideas, Kada Tsunakiyo finally chose to resist, so Asai Nagamasa has nothing to hesitate about, but just when he was about to give the order to attack, he saw the clan take a step forward and said: "The main hall, I have come up with a way to not only capture the city without blood, but also remove the threat of the wealthy clan in this city to the main hall." ”

After listening to this, Asai Nagamasa couldn't help but slowly put down the raised sword, if it was really like this, it would be great, Asai Nagamasa was not a person who loved to kill, and he could solve problems peacefully, and it was always better than fighting each other. I only heard him ask curiously, "Oh? I don't know how? Please also speak to Takayama-sama. ”

I heard the clan sect hurriedly speak: "Go back to the main hall, I think that since the warriors in the city are unwilling to leave their homeland, it is better not to leave......"

Before the clan finished speaking, I saw that Asai Nagamasa did not frown, what is this called, if this is the case, what is the use of the rhetoric just now, and let them continue to stay in Mekada City, the threat to Mekada Town is too great, and it is impossible to say anything. However, this Takayama clan is not under his command, otherwise, he will definitely be reprimanded, only to see Asai Nagamasa patiently asked: "Takayama-sama, if you don't let them leave, then how can you ensure the safety of Mekada Town?" ”

"The main hall, please don't be anxious, the words in the next are not finished, in the next is to think, you can directly appoint the head of the city as the city of Mekada Castle, and appoint him as the head of the city, and appoint him as the head of the city, but the other party has a wish, will be grateful for the grace of the main hall, although the people in the city from the city lord to the city generation, but from the new access to the management of the city, and did not lose too much benefit because of this, and is not used by the main hall.

Moreover, the samurai of the castle have lived here for a long time, and no one knows the situation in the town better than them, and with them in charge here, the main hall can sit in Kotani Castle and wait for the town to pay taxes, so that the lord of the castle becomes the castle generation, but his functional management is not autonomous, and the main hall has a small number of troops left in the town as a garrison, and these troops can also be used to monitor the castle, even if they have a rebellious heart, it is impossible to pose a threat to the main hall, and the main hall saves a lot of trouble, so why not? ”

Asai Nagamasa is a shrewd person, after listening to the clan's words, he immediately figured out the joint, if it is really according to what he said, I am afraid that this Kada Tsunashi should no longer have the intention of resisting, the reason why he wants to exterminate him is not that he is afraid of endless troubles, so that there is no longer the slightest worry, and this Kada Town will also be firmly controlled in his hands.

Thinking of this, I just listened to Asai Nagamasa and couldn't help but think again, fortunately, now the main family and the Oda family are friends and not enemies, otherwise, this Takayama clan alone is enough to pose a threat to the family, it seems that in the future, no matter what, we will stand on the side of the Oda family, even if all the retainers oppose it, it will not hesitate.

I saw Asai Nagamasa raise his head and say to the clan: "Lord Takayama's plan is brilliant, and Nagamasa will implement it accordingly." After saying that, Asai Nagamasa inserted the sword in his hand into the scabbard at his waist and ordered the army to retreat fifty meters.

After all this was all in order, I saw that his face softened slightly and said loudly: "Lord Mekada, if you don't want to leave this city, it's not impossible, but it can only be a castle, although this city and Mekada Town are classified as the direct jurisdiction of the family, but I can assure you that as long as my Asai family is not destroyed for a day, the Mekada family can forever town this city, in addition, after the adults return to the main family, I will also appoint the adults as the head of the Mekada Town, I don't know what the adults think?" ”

Standing on the city wall, the samurai who were ready to fight in the ridge city, after listening to Asai Nagamasa's words, including Mekada Tsunakashi, were all stunned, just now Asai Nagamasa was still determined to destroy the family, and the samurai next to him was just by his side, muttering quietly, and his attitude towards the family completely changed, this shouldn't be a strategy, right?

However, Mekada Tsunakiyo couldn't help but be a little worried, but then he thought about it, if Asai Nagamasa wanted to attack, I'm afraid that he could take away this ruined city today, so why bother, I'm afraid that the unknown adult, who whispered beside Asai Nagamasa just now, should be excusing his family, and when he finds an opportunity in the future, he must repay it.

Thinking of this, Mekada Tsunakiyo couldn't help but sigh secretly, he changed from the lord of the city to the city generation, from giving others to receiving Yulu, to receiving Yulu from others, which made him feel somewhat unacceptable, but this Mekada Castle is still under his control, at least the family name is kept, and, he can finally intervene in the management of the affairs of Mekada Town, although this town is still directly under the central government, but for the family, this is also a big step forward, and he is worthy of his ancestors.

Mekada Tsunakiyo no longer had the intention of resisting, but saw him return the sword to the sheath and said to his retainers: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am already satisfied that there is such a result, so I have decided to be loyal to the Asai family and become their direct minister." ”

The retainers also heard Asai Nagamasa's shout just now, and in their opinion, as long as they can continue to stay in this city, the limit proves that Asai Nagamasa has no intention of harming him, and secondly, although the lord has changed from a lord to a city generation, and his rights have been reduced a lot, but as long as he does not rebel, he can guard this city for generations, which has no effect on him at all. Even though the lord has already agreed, what is there to hesitate about?

Thinking of this, I only heard them say in unison: "The subordinates have no objections, please make your own decision." ”。
