146 Araki's Rebellion (3)

"I have a very good commodity in my hand, I took a look, near Tokaido, only His Royal Highness Oda has the capital to buy it."
"Eh, let's wait, Lady Akechi, I already know what that commodity is, but I want to ask you first, is the future shogun just a commodity in his eyes?"
"Yes, does he stand out because he has the word 'general'? At most, the value is slightly higher. ”
"Hehe, you're really realistic."
"Since His Royal Highness Oda already knows about the goods, then, let's talk quickly and negotiate the price directly."
"Hehe, you're really direct...... Forget it, I'll tell you for you,
Because it's already written very clearly on your face. The younger brother of the late Hikariyasu (Ashikaga Yoshiteru), the newly retired monk Ashikaga Yoshiaki, went to Echizen in order to rely on the Asakura family, and you also took this as a great opportunity to persuade your lord Yoshikoshi Keiko to go to Kyoto, drive the mobs such as Miyoshi and Matsunaga out of Kyoto, and rebuild the power of the shogunate.
However, Yi Jinggong was slow to act...... This is because he simply doesn't have enough courage and force to deal with thugs like Miyoshi and Matsunaga now, so you just thought of me Nobunaga, a few days ago, the letter sent by Lord Daisuke Fujitaka of Hosokawa Bingbu is probably about this, right?
That's why I ask you! What kind of character am I, Nobunaga, and what kind of character is he?! Don't I dare to do what he doesn't dare to do, if it's within the scope of possibility, I'm willing to take on the burden of Ashikaga Yoshiaki!"
Akechi Mitsuhide's face was red and white.
This proves that what Oda Nobunaga said really hit the nail on the head, and he is really a rare figure with discernment! Otherwise, how can we see this clearly?
But for such a major event in the world, he actually said it from the front as if determining the value of a horse, which was really a surprise to the wise Mitsuhide, who had always taught himself to be conceited and scheming!
"Well, Lord Wise, I'm right, right?"
"Absolutely correct, your analysis is completely to the point."
"That's good. You're also a guest from afar, let's have a drink before we continue talking!"
"Okay."
Oda Nobunaga is really a character, and he doesn't leak anything when he talks and does things, but Akechi Mitsuhide wants to talk to him directly.
"Akichi-sama, do you know what this place is," Oda Nobunaga said, picking up a piece of cherry blossom that had fallen to the ground and asking Akechi Mitsuhide, who was sitting opposite.
"Of course I know," Akechi Mitsuhide's eyes were a little lonely, "This is the back garden of His Royal Highness the Third Dao - Thousand Stacked Terraces, when I was young, I used to listen to the teachings of His Royal Highness the Third Dao Lung with His Royal Highness Yilong, and when I was not in class, I also accompanied His Royal Highness Yilong, and Gui Die...... Oh no, Mrs. Nohime frolicked under the cherry blossom trees together...... This was all thirty years ago, and there is no change in Senjotai, but the people are ......."
"Actually, there are quite a lot of changes here, there are a lot of flowers and plants here, all of which I transplanted after I entered the city...... Come, have a drink, dry! ”
"!"
"Actually...... Your Royal Highness Oda, the Yoshiaki Gong you are talking about has changed the autumn character of Yoshiaki to Zhao in the New Year of this year, so the correct title should be Yoshiaki Gong. ”
"Haha, if you can change your fate by changing your name, then I, Nobunaga, should also change my name to a more majestic one......"
"His Highness Oda said yes! It is useless to change the name, the innate nature of human beings is deep-rooted, and even if the name is changed, there will be no change in his nature. ”
"Isn't it like the late Light Source Academy, whose original name was 'Yoshito', and later he thought the name was not majestic enough, so he changed his name to 'Yoshiki', but in fact, if he changed his name, will the glory of his ancestors really shine? Let's talk about the character of the light source...... The Light Source Academy is just going down the wrong path, if he is not a general, but a master of swordsmanship, he will be a very great person. His nature was originally suitable for being a swordsman, and he didn't know the Kobo of foreign guns, so he lost the battle under the close pursuit of Matsunaga Shu's 200 foreign guns, and finally had to die bravely in the Muromachi Imperial Palace, didn't he?"
“……”
"For such a person, from other aspects, he has a good character and good qualifications, but if he wants to be a general, he is not qualified! So now I'm going to compare Yoshiaki with the former general and understand his strengths and weaknesses, so that I can make a decision in my heart!"
"According to His Highness Oda, what you say, in case he is not that good...... Will you still help him?"
"Help! Of course I will! ”
"Then I'll thank you for Yiqiu Gong first."
"Come on, let's not talk about this yet, let's continue drinking!" ……
After three rounds of drinking, Oda Nobunaga asked:
"Wise Lady, before me, did you think about selling this product to others?"
"To tell you the truth, I didn't think about His Royal Highness Oda at first, at the beginning, of course, what I thought about was His Royal Highness Yoshikei as the lord, but it's a pity that His Royal Highness Yoshikei has lost the courage of his ancestors, he said, as soon as he goes to Luo, there will be conflicts with other forces that have been promoted, and it is very troublesome, and behind the Asakura family, there is always a sect eyeing the tiger, and it is really impossible to leave......"
"Haha, I'm laughing to death, how can there be a fight for the world without fighting? If you're afraid of trouble, you'll be able to stay at home for the rest of your life......"
"After that, I slowly broke away from the Asakura family, anyway, I was just a general, or an outsider, no one noticed my existence, Hosokawa-sama, Ueno-sama, they went west, hoping to get the help of the Mori Motosama, who held the ten kingdoms of Kansai, but the Mori-sama was too old to withstand such a big toss, and he didn't agree, and the Otomo Yoshijin-sama of Kyushu only cared about the affairs of Kyushu, and didn't care about the changes in Kyoto at all, he even refused to receive our envoy, alas......"
"I've been to meet Rokkaku-sama in Minami-Omi before, but they don't want to conflict with the Miyoshi family, and before I come to Mino again, I broke up with Isshiki-sama, and I came to lobby His Highness Oda, and Ichishiki-sama went to lobby Uesugi-sama in Echigo and Takeda-sama in Kai."
"So, Lady Akechi, do you think Takeda Kamikashi will agree to Ichishi-sama's request?"
"Absolutely not!"
"Huh?" Oda Nobutaga was surprised, "These two are the two most famous generals in the world, Shangluo has always been their dream, the opportunity is right in front of them, why should they refuse?" ”
"Hehe, I want to ask the heaven and earth to press the righteous sentence, if Takeda Shingen is on Luo, in order to stabilize his country, who will he deal with first?"
"That is, of course, the Uesugi that will most shake his regime...... Oh, I see, once Takeda goes to Luo, he will first deal with Uesugi Kamiro, and Uesugi Kamiraku, then the first target to be hit will also be Takeda, so the two guys, Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin, will try their best to organize each other Kamiluo! ”
"His Royal Highness is right, when Uesugi Kenshin went to Luo, the conflict between Koyue was not big, Takeda Shingen was busy attacking Shinano, and he was not interested in Hokuriku for the time being, so he dared to go to Beijing openly, and when Takeda Shingen went to Luo, it was different, the contradiction between Koyue and Koyue was becoming more and more serious, Takeda Shingen Shangluo was kept secret from everyone, and he only made it public when he came back, because he knew that after he left Kai, Uesugi Kenshin would definitely go south to attack Takeda Ling!"
"So," Oda Nobunaga said with a smile: "They have formed a fixed mindset between them, not only can they not let each other go to Luo, but before they go to Luo, they must solve the problem of the henchman on the other side, so that they can rest assured that they can go to Luo...... In the eyes of outsiders, Takeda Uesugi, two heroes of the time, actually fought five times for a small Kawanaka Island, wasting time and soldiers' lives in vain, but in fact, the shouting and killing on Kawanaka Island was the first step for them to go to Luo...... Wonderful, wise lord, your vision is really amazing, admire! Come, Nobunaga toasts you! ”
"His Royal Highness Oda is gracious."
"So, I also want to ask, if I go to Luo, can I defeat the Miyoshi Army?"
"Haha, Your Highness, you really don't have confidence, since the death of Miyoshi Changqing, the internal undercurrent is surging, and the struggle is fierce, firstly, the conflict between the three of Miyoshi and Matsunaga is becoming more and more obvious, and secondly, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, who has no real power in his hands, is also very dissatisfied with the three people who monopolize power, and the middle-level retainers led by Miyoshi Yasunaga are not satisfied with being squeezed out by the people above...... Miyoshi's army, having stayed in Kyoto for so many years, has long lost its past character of being brave and fierce, not afraid of life and death, and knows all day long to be addicted to the world of flowers and flowers in Kyoto......"
"So, will the Rokkaku family, the Daimyo of the Hatano family in, join forces with the Miyoshi family to fight me because they are afraid of me?"
"Absolutely not! Not to mention the various contradictions between these people, Your Highness, the commodity in your hand is a strong shield, whoever dares to attack you, Your Highness, you can use the name of 'righteousness' to fight back against him! I can assure you that it will only take three months, nay, a month, for your flag to be planted on the streets of Kyoto, and then you will be the first person in the world in the truest sense of the word! ”
"Haha, Mitsuhide-sama's words made my blood boil," Oda Nobunaga, who was excited, used a more intimate address to the person in front of him, "Okay! I bought this item, and in a few days, I went to the border between Mino and Omi to greet Yoshiaki, oh no, Yoshiaki-sama. ”
"Thank you to His Royal Highness Oda for being anxious for justice and righteousness, and for supporting the right path, there is hope for the revival of the shogunate, and there is hope for peace in the world......"
"By the way," Oda Nobunaga stared at Akechi Mitsuhide with expectant eyes, "Mitsuhide-sama, didn't you say that you want to get ahead and make a name for yourself?" In this way, you don't want to be a retainer of Asakura anymore, come and serve me! ”
"Nani?"
Oda Nobunaga's invitation was not planned, and Akechi Mitsuhide didn't react for a while.
Playing for Oda Nobunaga? No, if I really wanted to, I would have been to Owari more than ten years ago.
"How much money will the Asakura family give you, I will pay double!" ……
"Gifu no Kai" was the starting point of his father's illustrious career, but can he still have the decisiveness and vision he had when he first met Oda Nobunaga?
Father stared at where I left:
"Yesterday, due to Araki's rebellion, I defended Araki-sama twice, and was scolded by the lord, saying that I was too old to keep up with his steps and thinking...... And today, Kogoro also said that I am old, is that really the case......"
