"See the lord!" In the large room of Devon Castle, Hosokawa Nobugen sat on the main seat, and below him was a group of retainers who stayed in Devon Castle.

"Zhengqing, let's talk about the recent situation." Hosokawa Nobumoto turned his head to look at Hattori Masaaki, who was now in charge of Matami's duties due to the death of Hattori's security chief.

"Back to the lord, on the day the main hall was evacuated, arrange for Lord Wada and Lord Shibata to serve as palace soldiers. Since the Eguchi River in the retreat route is a tributary of the Uji River and the Yodo River, there is a lot of water. Moreover, Honganji intercepted all the boats crossing the river and besieged the family's sailors in a vain attempt to prevent the evacuation of the main hall. "After Hattori Masaaki gathered the information, he began to report it in a very organized manner.

"And nearly 10,000 people of Ichikoji launched an attack on the Oda army, but they were all stopped by Shibata-sama. Under the urgency of the situation, the main hall personally rode his horse to confirm the water potential, selected a place with a shallow river, and led the Oda army to retreat across the river. On the second day after the main hall left, the water swelled and blocked the pursuit of Honganji, so he returned to reinforce Nakajima and attacked the main house. ”

"Hehe, I see, but the lord's luck is really amazing, but I seem to be very unlucky, hehe..." Hosokawa Nobumoto said half-jokingly, causing all the retainers to laugh, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed.

After escorting General Yoshiaki to Kyoto, the main hall did not stop, and immediately led his troops to Otsu to resist the combined forces of Asakura and Asai. As a result, as soon as the enemy saw the flag mark of the main hall, they quickly fled to Mt. Hiei and set up formations in the areas of Bee Peak, Aoyama, and Mt. Kikasa. The main hall then surrounded Mt. Hiei, and repeatedly sent people to advise Enryōji Temple, asking them not to help the combined forces of Asakura and Asai on the condition of returning the temple territory, otherwise Mt. Hiei would be burned! ”

"Burn Mt. Hiei!" As soon as Hosokawa Nobumoto heard this, he stood up for a moment, and he was familiar with this scene. From then on, the Oda family would become the enemy of the Buddha, and Oda Nobunaga was given the infamy of the "Demon King of the Sixth Heaven".

"My lord? What's wrong? Could it be that the main hall said that the fire burned Mt. Hiei? Don't worry, my lord, your majesty thinks that the main hall is just intimidation. "The old Yoshida Sogui of the pen family saw Hosokawa Nobumoto's gaffe, and appeased him, not only him, but almost everyone thought that this was impossible, you must know that Mt. Hiei is the head gate of the Buddhist Tiantai Sect, and it is a holy place.

"Hehe... Is it..."Hosokawa Nobumoto obviously didn't listen, he knew that the ending was something that no one could have imagined, the real fire burned Mt. Hiei.

"The Lord ordered me to go to Usayama Castle as soon as possible and join the army. I'll rest here for the night today, and I'll leave for Sekigahara Castle early tomorrow morning. At that time, I will lead the Sekihara Bei, Tokubunbei, and the Samurai on Horseback to set off. After a tiring journey along the way, Hosokawa Nobumoto also felt a little tired.

"My lord, you can wait for the Tokugawa main hall to set off together, the main hall has asked the Mikawa Tokugawa family to send reinforcements, and at the same time ordered Kinoshita-sama who stayed behind in Yokoyama Castle and Niwa-sama from Kannonji Mountain Castle to go to Usayama Castle together." Yoshida said.

"Can Tokugawa Ieyasu still go on the expedition? He was so badly injured that he didn't get out of bed for three or five months, right? "Hosokawa Nobumoto is not very optimistic about the Tokugawa family's reinforcements.

"Back to the lord, although the Tokugawa main hall cannot go out in person, it is said that they have already begun to mobilize, and it seems that Matsudaira Shinichi and Ishikawa Ienari will lead the expedition." Hattori Masaaki told Hosokawa Nobumoto the information of Mikawa Province in 1510.

"I didn't expect the Tokugawa Daiden to be a reliable ally." Kiyonobu Nakajima, the financial officer, couldn't help but praise two sentences.

"Hmph, old turtle." Hosokawa Nobumoto scoffed, Tokugawa Ieyasu's ambitions, he knew best.

"I won't wait for reinforcements from the Mikawa Tokugawa family, I'll just wait for them in Sekigahara Castle." Hosokawa Nobumoto felt safe only when he had soldiers in his hands, so he followed the Tokugawa army alone, in case the demon sword "Muramasa" was powerful again.

"Yes! But it's up to the lord to decide. All the retainers agreed.

After the meeting, Hosokawa Nobumoto returned to his residence and found that Mochizuki was not there, so it was said that he had gone to the temple to pray for him, and then went directly to the boudoir of the Oda Inu.

There was a rush of running in the hallway, and Hosokawa Nobumoto walked to the source of the sound in confusion, guessing who was scurrying around in his residence.

At the end of the corridor, as soon as he turned the corner, a child ran towards him, and he crashed into his arms before he could brake.

"Huh?" Hosokawa Nobugen took a closer look, it turned out to be the four-year-old Jokai Maru, and it was Toramatsu who chased him behind, and it turned out that they were playing together.

"Woooooo Wow wow wow..."When Jokai Maru in his arms saw him, he actually cried loudly, which made Hosokawa Nobumoto very at a loss.

"Father! Jokai Maru, Jokai Maru, this is your father, hurry up and see the courtesy. Toramatsu came over and saluted first, and then hurriedly told Jokai Maru that this was his father, but he still cried and didn't know Hosokawa Nobumoto at all.

"Really, why don't you even know your father." Hu Song was still a little unhappy, and began to educate his younger brother, who looked like a little adult.

"Yes, Jokai Maru, I'm your father. Come, let Father hug. After saying that, Hosokawa Nobumoto was about to step forward and pick up Jokai Maru, but he was pushed away with resistance.

"I don't know you! You go away! I want Mom! I want Mom! Woo wow wow... Brother Husong, take me to my mother! Jokai Maru said as he tugged at Toramatsu's sleeve and was about to leave, but the latter stood there awkwardly and didn't know what to do.

"Hey... Go play. Hosokawa Nobumoto sighed, he was not at home all the year round, and his children didn't recognize him anymore.

"Yes." As soon as Hu Song bowed, he left with Chenghui Pill, and his explanation was heard in the distance, what mother is going to fight the world, it was my father Yunyun just now.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Hey..."Today is the third time that Hosokawa Nobumoto sighed, and since he came to the Oda dog's room, he has been frowning.

"What's wrong with Your Highness? Aren't you happy to come to the concubine? If you're not happy, don't come in the future, huh! Oda was so angry that he pouted, and his aggrieved little face was about to shed tears.

"No, no, how could I not be happy. It's just that I just met Jokai Maru, and he didn't even know me, so I felt a little sad. Isn't it true that you say I'm busy out there every day? I don't have time to spend more time with you and the children. Hey..."Hosokawa Nobumoto felt ashamed, he didn't have much time at home for so many years.

"Hmm... No... For the sake of this family, for the prosperity of the family, it is natural for Your Highness to work hard outside, and the concubines understand it, and they have never blamed you... Really..."Oda dog hugged Hosokawa Nobumoto tightly and hugged gently..., you are lonely, and the young lady warms you with a movie
