Chapter 512: A dead end

The clan was very happy after hearing it, Ashikaga Yoshiaki, Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the happier you are, the sooner Lao Tzu leaves. net

However, it is still clear how many powerful clans the Ashikaga family has, even if the Miyoshi family is sluggish after this battle, it is not a problem to hold the territory, since the Ashikaga family wants to make trouble, then he will simply let the trouble be bigger, only in this way will he get Nobunaga's attention.

And didn't the Ashikaga family say, after the Miyoshi family goes out of the army, they will come to let themselves help, why bother, isn't it over if he sends the army to help him seize some territory, and whether he can hold it at that time has nothing to do with him.

Thinking of this, I saw that the clan sect tore the codex that had just been made in half, and said: "Immediately recruit the big palace Jingren, Tanaka Katsusuke to see him, and invite Lord Akechi to come here, and say that there is an important matter to discuss." "Now that the matter has come to this, the clan is also planning to have a showdown with Akechi Mitsuhide.

And this time secretly "helping" the Ashikaga family, the clan did not want the Oda family army to participate, and the army under his command except for the spear Ashigaru with little loss and very easy to replenish and the heavy vine bow Ashigaru with no loss were left behind, the other Takayama family troops had already returned to the territory and were selected from among the new people as supplements.

It didn't take long to see Omiya Keiren and Tanaka Katsusuke walking in, and the clan first informed the two of the Ashikaga family's actions, and asked them to go down immediately to prepare, although they didn't agree with the lord's approach, in their hearts, no matter how weak the shogun's family was, but it was also the common lord of the world, if Lord An's idea was to do it, it seemed to be a bit excessive.

But in any case, the object of their allegiance was not to the general's family, but to the Takayama family, so even if they felt that something was wrong, they did not refute it, but immediately went down to prepare.

"I've seen Takayama-sama in Shimowise Mitsuhide, I don't know what important things the adults will recruit in the next place?" Although Akechi Mitsuhide is a shogun, regardless of his status, but he is just a retainer of the public family. It is extremely noble, and when talking to the clan, he should not be so angry, but Wise Mitsuhide is an understanding person. He knew that since the lord had a grudge against the Oda family yesterday, he knew that he was afraid that the Ashikaga family was about to end.

No one in the general's family knew Oda Nobunaga better than Akechi Mitsuhide, so when Oda Nobunaga knew the thoughts of the lord of the road. Then the end of the Ashikaga family is coming, and Akechi Mitsuhide looks down on Ashikaga Yoshiaki from the stock, and his loyalty to him back then is also impatient, so since the meeting broke up yesterday, he has been thinking about his own way out.

At this time, he thought that when he met Takayama-sama these few times, Takayama-sama hinted at himself between the lines, obviously wanting to make himself obedient to Oda. At first, he didn't think much of it, but now it's different. In the past few years, he has been unsuccessful everywhere, but once he turns to Oda, it will be different, he and Oda Nobunaga are related to him, and he does not mention it first, just his own knowledge, it is enough to make some achievements in the Oda family, in this case, why should he accompany the Ashikaga family to the funeral.

And it was precisely because of this idea that he was so angry when he talked to the Takayama clan, which was one of Oda Nobunaga's favorite retainers. If you want to return to the Oda family, it is very necessary to befriend them, and if Takayama-sama is willing to help, then you will definitely be able to do everything.

And the clan is also a shrewd person, when he saw that Wise Mitsuhide was suddenly so angry. He had already guessed that he should have begun to find a way out by now.

And everyone understands people, the more this is the case, the more the clan doesn't want to go around in circles, and it is the most boring thing to show off in front of smart people, so I heard the clan sect say directly to the point: "Wise and popular, I heard that the general seems to be planning to go out to deal with the Miyoshi family, I don't know if this matter can be taken seriously." ”…,

Akechi Mitsuhide was shocked after hearing this, the matter that the family discussed yesterday, this Takayama clan clan knew the Tao today, which really shocked him, but he soon regained his calm, although he had not dealt with the Takayama clan, but he had heard that there were many ninjas under his command, and there were dozens of ninjas, if he sent a ninja to lurk in the castle tower of Nijo Castle, then it would be impossible to find it with the current defense of the family, so there was nothing strange about this.

And what makes Akechi Mitsuhide feel strange is that Takayama-sama told himself this matter so frankly, what he wants to do, even if Akechi Mitsuhide is not able to schem the rest of the world, but he can't figure out the mind of the Takayama clan for a while, and now that he already knows the content of the main family meeting yesterday, then there is no need for him to hide it, anyway, he didn't say anything about the Oda family at the meeting yesterday, and the Takayama clan shouldn't want to deal with him, and there is no need to hide it.

So I just heard him nod and said: "What Lord Takayama is doing well, this family is indeed planning to use soldiers against the Miyoshi family in the near future." ”

"Presumably, Lord Wise should be able to see through the castle of Nijo Castle, my lord doesn't want the lord to be strong, if the lord doesn't care about the world, then the clan can guarantee that he can enjoy glory and wealth for the rest of his life, but if it touches the bottom line of my lord...... Even if I don't talk about it, adults should know the character of my father-in-law. ”

After hearing this, Akechi Mitsuhide couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, only to hear him quickly say: "Thank you Takayama-sama for your guidance, I will return to Nijo Castle in the next place, and express the meaning of Nobunaga to my lord in turn." With that, Akechi Mitsuhide was about to say goodbye and leave.

Seeing that he was leaving, the clan quickly pulled him back, and said with a smile: "Wise Lord and slow, I haven't finished talking yet, this Ashikaga family's dispatch of troops, not only will I not stop it, but I will also send troops to help, but this requires your help." ”

Akechi Mitsuhide is really confused by what the clan said now, is it... Could it be that Takayama-sama wants to hasten the demise of the Ashikaga family, and he needs to be on his side?

But what is this for, but I heard that if it wasn't for Lord Takayama who led the army to save the lord, then the lord would have died a long time ago, and if Lord Takayama wanted the Ashikaga family to perish, as long as he didn't make a move at that time, then the Ashikaga family would never have a chance to revive again, and he was now a retainer of the Ashikaga family, and the Takayama clan told himself these confidential things, what was it for.

Thinking of this, Akechi Mitsuhide didn't speak, but waited for him to explain them one by one.

Seeing that he was silent, the clan knew what he was waiting for, and only heard him speak: "The reason why this matter will be informed to Lord Wise is that I hope that Lord Wise can see the situation clearly, and there is no future for the general's family, and the Lord is still my lord's wife and brother, if the Lord is willing to transfer to the Oda family, then the general will recommend it, and the general's family will survive for one more day, then the great cause of the world's martial arts will not be completed, although this is not the meaning of my lord, but as a retainer, everything is beneficial to the family, In the next will spare no effort to do, if the adult is willing to help, then this great achievement can allow the adult to stand firm in the Oda family, this is the heartfelt words of the clan, everything is still up to the adult to decide. ”

On that day, after returning to Nijo Castle, Akechi Mitsuhide went directly to the castle tower without any delay to meet Ashikaga Yoshiaki.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki still took a fancy to Akechi Mitsuhide's talent, so he met him at the first time.

"Subordinates, see the lord."

"What do you have to say when you see me today?" Ashikaga Yoshiaki said lightly. …,

I saw that Wise Guangxiu said happily: "Lord, today my subordinates went to see the Gaoshan Clan, under the persuasion of the subordinates, the Gaoshan Clan decided to send an army to help the family attack the land of the Sanhao Family, and only need to provide grain and grass, and no other benefits." However, he can only send the three hundred troops under his command to help in the battle, as for the remaining one thousand Oda family elites...... Since this army is used to protect the safety of Kyoto and the family, it is inconvenient to move, so the family can only get the help of the 300 mountain army, and ask the lord to decide. ”

After Ashikaga Yoshiaki listened, he was almost knocked out by the pie that fell from the sky.

What is the most important thing about this family now, the most lacking military strength of this family, but only one day later, there are three hundred reinforcements, and it is also an extremely elite mountain army, as long as there is a high mountain army, then while the strength of the three good families has not recovered, more than tens of thousands of stones of land is definitely not a problem, and what makes him most happy is that the high mountain clan only needs to provide their own grain and grass, and nothing else, such a good thing actually let himself run into it, Ashikaga Yoshiaki instantly felt that this Takayama clan was much stronger than Oda Nobunaga, and after he mastered the world, He must be rewarded.

However, this news was so unexpected that Ashikaga Yoshiaki even couldn't believe it was true, so he asked excitedly, "Is this true?" The Gaoshan Clan Sect is really willing to send three hundred troops to help in the battle. ”

Seeing Ashikaga Yoshiaki's excited expression, Akechi Mitsuhide secretly said in his heart, with Ashikaga Yoshiaki's ability, how could he be the opponent of the Oda family, it seems that it is really a wise choice for him to choose to join the Oda family.

I heard him hurriedly say: "The subordinates dare not deceive the lord, when the subordinates left Luozhong City, Lord Gao Shan had already begun to reorganize his armaments, waiting for the lord's order at any time." ”

I only heard Ashikaga Yoshiaki say excitedly: "Okay, you have done a very good job in this matter, and after the family recovers its strength, I will definitely reward you." ”

"Thank you, my lord." "You immediately inform Hosokawa Fujitaka of this and ask him to redeploy."

At the same time that Akechi Mitsuhide met with the shogun, the Takayama clan also sent a codex of the Ashikaga family's upcoming operations to be carried out, along with a letter of allegiance from Akechi Mitsuhide, to Oda Nobunaga in Gifu Castle.
