"Back to Beijing! Go and greet our beloved General Yoshiaki. With a wave of his hand, Oda Nobunaga marched the whole army and returned to Kyoto in high spirits.

At this time, General Yoshiaki was still under house arrest in Honnoji Temple, and it is estimated that he was anxiously waiting for Oda Nobunaga's punishment. Nobunaga's siege network came more suddenly and quickly than in history, and similarly, with the participation of Hosokawa Nobumoto, it was also completely eradicated than in history.

General Yoshiaki was captured, and the rebellion of the Kinai states was put down; The Rokkaku family of Omi Province perished, and the whereabouts of Rokkaku Yoshiken and Yoshiji father and son are unknown; The Asai family of Omi Province perished, and both Asai and Changzheng died; The Echizen Province Asakura family perished, and Asakura Yoshikei and Aiomaru (fake) both perished; Wakasa Province guardian daimyo Takeda Motoaki was rescued from the Asakura family, but became a puppet of the Oda family, and the Oda family continued to rule the Wakasa family.

Takeda Shingen was shot in Kamiraku, and died immediately due to old age and frailty, and Takeda Katsuyori attacked Hosokawa Nobumoto in order to increase his prestige. As a result, a large number of important ministers of the Takeda family were defeated, and the elite troops suffered heavy losses.

The outbreak of the Ichijo sect was extinguished on a large scale, and the Ishiyama Honganji temple was beaten so back that he cowered in the city and did not dare to come out, and the Nagashima Ichijo sect was uprooted. It is worth mentioning that after Kaga Ichijomune learned the news of the Oda army's invasion of Echizen, the officials Shimoma Yoriteru and Shichiri Yorishu hurriedly organized an army to support the Asakura family, but unfortunately the Asakura family was defeated too quickly and could not catch up.

An army from Kaga was unwilling to accept defeat and contacted Tomita Nagashige, who had just surrendered to the Oda family. Dissatisfied with the disparity in treatment after the surrender, Tomita Nagashige instigated a domestic rebellion and killed Katsura Nagatoshi and became the guardian of Echizen.

At this time, Tomita Nagashige was still ostensibly subservient to the Oda family, but when he pretended to invite Uozumi Keigu and his second son to breakfast, he killed Uozumi and his son during the banquet. The next day, he attacked Tobano Castle in Keigu, killing the eldest son of Uozumi, and the Uozumi family was wiped out. Immediately after that, he joined forces with Yiyi to attack Oda Fang's Asakura, who was in charge of controlling Echizen, Mizoe Nagayi, Tsuchihashi Jingjing, etc., and killed them one by one, and the wolf's ambition was already revealed.

Oda Nobunaga immediately ordered Shibata Katsuie, Akechi Mitsuhide, Kinoshita Hideyoshi, Hosokawa Fujitaka and others to lead troops to Echizen, and the Niko family of Izumo Province saw that the Oda family, which was already unstoppable and in full swing, temporarily suppressed the rhetoric against the main Hosokawa family, and sent the Tango Navy to block the sea route and directly participate in the extermination of Echizen Ichi.

At this time, Hosokawa Nobumoto will follow Oda Nobunaga's army back to Kyoto, his right hand swollen like a bear's paw, but still waving goodbye to Akechi Mitsuhide. Looking at Shibata Katsuya and the others who parted ways, Hosokawa Nobugen knew that they were actually going because Oda Nobunaga was giving them meritorious deeds, in order to restrain his family dominance. Because Echizen has always been a follow-up at this time, this is undoubtedly a salary to fight fires, and their failure is already doomed.

"See... See Lord Youfu! In the Honnoji Temple, Ashikaga Yoshiaki knelt underneath and saluted Oda Nobunaga tremblingly, and now his little life was all in Nobunaga's thoughts.

"Hmm." Oda Nobunaga replied without emotion, he returned with a big victory this time, not only the territory was bigger, but the official position was like a rocket, jumping three levels in a row, and he was promoted to the right minister and the right guard general from the second position, which alone surpassed Ashikaga Yoshiaki.

"Ashikaga Yoshiaki! Do you know what will happen to the rebellion! Oda Nobunaga unceremoniously called General Yoshiaki by his name, his eagle-like eyes narrowed and his brow furrowed tightly, making his already thin face even narrower. The air instantly dropped by ten degrees, like a dark cloud before thunder and lightning, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki below was already trembling with fear, and all the retainers did not dare to come out one by one, knowing that this was a precursor to the lord's anger.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Ashikaga Yoshiaki has completely given up his dignity, tears burst out of his eyes, and he kowtows again and again to admit his mistakes.

Oda Nobunaga looked at Ashikaga Yoshiaki's cowardice, even his nose wrinkled, and a green tendon appeared on his forehead, just when everyone thought it was going to end in blood.

"Yoshitsugi." A faint tone made everything calm. Hearing Oda Nobunaga suddenly call out the name of Yoshitsugu Miyoshi, Hosokawa Nobumoto's brows jumped, wondering if he was going to take back the South Kawachi he had taken.

"In! Please command. "Miyoshi Yiji stepped forward and bowed to the ground.

"In this rebellion, I am very pleased that your Miyoshi family can firmly follow this family. And he also personally led the army to conquest, and contributed a lot, so Nan Hanoi will be used as a reward for you. Unexpectedly, Oda Nobunaga ignored Ashikaga Yoshiaki and began to reward him aggressively.

"Thank you, Lord Youfu! The Miyoshi family will continue to follow the Oda family steadfastly! "Miyoshi Yoshitsugu said it so nicely on the surface, but in his heart he disdained it: Damn! So much effort to give me a South Hanoi? Moreover, it was laid down by my own hands, who do you want to give it to if you don't give it to me? If it weren't for the sake of my brother-in-law, I wouldn't have helped you, hum!

"In addition, as a reward for you, General Yoshiaki will be handed over to you. Remember! Strictly guarded, there are all problems but you ask! Oda Nobunaga suddenly said with a serious expression.

"Huh? Great, thank you so much! "This time Miyoshi Yoshitsugu is sincerely grateful, with his protection, his father-in-law Ashikaga Yoshiaki will not be in danger of life.

"Hey..."Hosokawa Nobumoto sighed below, it seems that Oda Nobunaga wants to take Miyoshi Yoshitsugu.

This general Yoshiaki will be a time bomb as long as he lives, and if he is sent to Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, as long as he has the slightest dissatisfaction with the Oda family, Oda Nobunaga will have a reason to crusade against General Yoshiaki and his pro-establishment faction, the Miyoshi family. If Yoshitsugu Miyoshi killed Ashikaga Yoshiaki, then the charge of killing the shogun would be his, and he would not be able to escape from the palm of Oda Nobunaga.

Matsunaga Hide, who was also below, noticed Hosokawa Nobumoto's sigh, and his eyes rolled wildly, not knowing what he was thinking. It stands to reason that he has contributed a lot to this counterinsurgency, not only eliminating the rebels of Yamato Province and forcing Tsutsui Shunkei, but also rebelling against Naito Ruan and defeating the Shogun. And he, not only did he not want any reward, but he also handed over some of the holdings around Tawen Mountain Castle and Yamashiro Soraku-gun, and offered Harumatsu, the son of Matsunaga Tong, as a hostage.

In contrast, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, who has one tendon, seems to be so ignorant of current affairs, and naturally he was dissatisfied with Oda Nobunaga.

"Many... Thank you, Lord Righto..."Ashikaga Yoshiaki was taken down in despair, and he was already very content to be able to pick up a life.

"I have decided to change the era name to Tianzheng, and I will implement it immediately! And on New Year's Day, I will hold a major ceremony in Gifu Castle! At that time, you must participate! Oda Nobunaga's sharp gaze passed over the retainers and stayed on the body of Matsunaga Shu, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, Tsutsui Shunkei, Takeda Motoaki and other foreign daimyos.

"Yes! We must be the head of the Oda family! "The great name who is usually high in the family is only humble and surrendered at this time.
