Chapter 320: Epiphany

"Your Highness... Your Highness? There was a soft call in my ears, it was Cher! Hosokawa Nobumoto, who was in a coma, his eyelids jumped slightly.

"Your Highness... Your Highness! Don't fall! Your Highness! ”

All of a sudden! Hosokawa Nobumoto's distracted eyes focused again, bursting with fiery light!

"Uhhh!!h Hosokawa Nobumoto faced the storm and let out a lion-like roar! With a straight waist, he stopped the fall and stood in front of Akechi Mitsuhide again.

"Well done! It's this indomitable spirit! Akechi Mitsuhide's face was ruddy, and his eyes shone brightly at Hosokawa Nobumoto, as if he had seen a rare treasure.

"But! It's not enough to have spirit! You have to have enough strength! Look at the knives! Ichinotai Knife! Wise Guangxiu's eyes were cold, and he slashed again! He didn't really understand the essence of the "One Sword", he just painted the tiger according to the cat, otherwise the knife just now would definitely kill with one blow.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! The heavy rain continued. Whew! The wind is still howling.

Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at the slashing sword, and the blow that was originally as fast as lightning gradually slowed down in his eyes... Gradually slowing down...

There was a crisp snap, and Akechi Mitsuhide's eyes widened in surprise: "This... How is that possible..."

Hosokawa Nobumoto's whole body exuded an astonishing momentum, and his dark eyes were as dazzling as shooting stars across the sky. He put his palms together, and he actually took the white blade empty-handed!

"No knife to take!" Hosokawa Nobumoto pressed down hard, and then pulled down his waist, and Akechi Mitsuhide lost his balance and fell into his arms unconsciously.

With a touch, Hosokawa Nobumoto's right elbow hit Akechi Mitsuhide's chin hard.

"Ahh Akechi Mitsuhide let go of the pain, and "Bizen Close-up" let Hosokawa Nobumoto take it.

"Ten Guards! Be careful! Mystery! Huh! Hosokawa Nobumoto shouted, and suddenly the sword light and sword shadow instantly formed a violent hurricane, mixed with heavy rain, and a unique "dragon absorbing water" enveloped Akechi Mitsuhide.

"Uhhh Akechi Mitsuhide's screams of pain were like being hit hard. The body was wrapped in a hurricane, and it was immediately cut into a thousand holes and flew upside down.

Poof! Wise Mitsuhide fell heavily in the muddy water, life and death unknown!

There was a loud click, and the lightning reflected the standing Hosokawa Nobuyuan, at this moment of life and death, he had two epiphany one after another, and successfully counterattacked Akechi Mitsuhide!

"Bah! Creak! Oh! Oura shouted excitedly for Shin, and with the fall of Akechi Mitsuhide, the war was over and the Hosokawa family was victorious! In front of him was a butt sitting in muddy water. At this time, Saito Rizo was dejected, his eyes were blank, and the big mouth on his left arm was gurgling blood, and they were defeated.

"Bah! Creak! Oh! The Hosokawa army also let out a loud cheer, drowning out the sound of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and the wise army weakly put down the weapons in their hands and gave up resistance.

Trample... Trample... Stepping on, Akechi Staggered to Akechi Mitsuhide, fell to his knees with a pop, and betrayed him crying with trembling shoulders.

"My lord! You're alright! Takigawa also ran to Hosokawa Nobumoto's side, and the wound on Nobugen's chest was shocking, making people dare not look at it directly.

"I'm fine..."Hosokawa Nobumoto took the opportunity to put his hand on Takigawa's shoulder, well hiding his weak self.

"Lord... Lord... Let's go... Subordinates, this will take you... Leave..."Wise and choked up, picked up Wise Mitsu-so, and walked out step by step, tears on his face mixed with rain, and he was flowing down in a hurry.

"Lord, do you want to stay?" At this time, Shimakatsu Takeshi and others also came to Hosokawa Nobumoto's side, and they were looking at the two who were about to leave.

"No, he is the most respectable enemy in my life, please give him the highest respect." As he spoke, Hosokawa Nobumoto bowed his head and watched the two of them leave.

"Yes!" Hosokawa Haruki and the others also withdrew their weapons and silently bowed to Akechi Mitsuhide.

Wise and bright, moving little by little, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the ground was muddy, but it couldn't stop this firm pace, and couldn't stop the determination to leave this noisy battlefield!

Wherever the two ministers passed, whether it was the wise army or the Hosokawa army, they all bowed their heads and saluted as a sign of respect. Wise Mitsuhide! Defeat is still glorious!

"Your ideal, I've taken it from Nobumoto Hosokawa. Cough... Cough... Let's go..."Hosokawa Nobugen coughed violently a few times, and Yoshida Sosui also ran over at this time, supporting Hosokawa Nobumoto to retreat.

The final winner of the decisive battle in Kyoto was Hosokawa Nobumoto, who was seriously wounded, but his life was sparing.

Akechi Mitsuhide's life and death are unknown, his whereabouts are unknown, and all kinds of unknowns, but what is certain is that he is a loser. As a result, the entire Yamagata Province of Kyoto, plus the fiefdoms of the wise family: Takashima and Shiga counties of Omi Province, received a total of more than 330,000 zhiyuki. In addition to the new Shodoshima Island of Sanuki Province, the head of the Hosokawa family instantly reached 800,000 Zhixing.

Hashiba Hideyoshi missed the opportunity one step too late, but he stayed in Awata County in Omi Province, and along the way, he occupied the three counties of Yesu, Gamu, and Kanzaki, plus his own original three counties of Ika, Asai, and Sakata, and now the total leader has reached 430,000 Zhixing.

"This damn monkey! Oops... Oops. "In the teahouse trading hall in Kyoto, Hosokawa Nobumoto was lying on the bed, and his body was bandaged inside and out.

"Don't be angry, my lord, cough... cough..."Hattori Hanzo just comforted him, and he coughed dryly, he was too deeply poisoned, and he has not fully recovered in the past six months. But when he heard that the lord almost died again, he felt deeply remorseful, and endured the pain, so he had to come over to be a shadow ninja for Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"Hanzo, you're no better, I know you have a heart, so let's go and rest." Hosokawa Nobumoto also felt very sorry for Hattori Hanzo, and he was really moved by his heart.

"Lord, you can just let Hattori-sama stay here, it's safe here anyway, there won't be any problems." Seeing that the two began to be polite to each other, Honda Masanobu, who was reporting on the side, couldn't help but interrupt.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, Yahachiro, go on, you continue to report." Hosokawa Nobumoto didn't shirk it anymore, and instead asked for information from behind.

"Yes! The matter of Lord Yuchai has already been said by His Majesty just now, and the other thing is... His Royal Highness Nobuo Kitada died in battle..."Masanobu Honda continued to report with his head bowed.

"What! Nobuo Kitada is dead! How to die! Hosokawa Nobumoto sat up as soon as he heard this, this is a big event. Kitada Nobuo and Oda Nobutada are brothers of the same mother, and now that Nobutada is dead, they should be the descendants of Nobuo in the order of succession. If even he died, it would indicate that the heirs of the Oda family were extinct, and the next governor of the family was unknown.

"That's right, after Kitada-sama and Hashiba-sama received the death of Nobunaga, the soldiers came to rebel in two ways. Naturally, Hashiba-sama walked on the Omi Road, which was smooth but detoured, while Kitada-sama walked on the extremely dangerous Iga Province..."Speaking of which, it is self-evident.

"Nobuo Kitada, that fool, isn't this his own death! There is a new enemy in front of the Iga people, and there is a chasing soldier Kitada Gujiao in the back, and it is difficult not to die. Hosokawa Nobumoto shook his head, he really accepted this idiot.

"Also... Akechi Mitsuhide's body was found, reportedly seriously wounded, and eventually killed by a local farmer in a village. "Honda Masanobu said another big thing.

"Is it..."Hosokawa Nobumoto sighed secretly, inexplicably sad.

"Can the lord test the head of Akechi Mitsuhide?"

"No, have you seen it? Are you sure it's him? Hosokawa Nobumoto didn't know why he asked that, did he hope it was him? Or are you afraid that it's him?

"It's... I'm not sure, it was already badly rotten when it was sent, and I couldn't tell the true form, but I inferred from my figure and dress that it was Wise Mitsuhide. Lord, do you need to send someone to further investigate? Honda Masanobu asked Hosokawa Nobumoto with a serious expression.

"Hey... No need... So be it... Tell the outside world about the death of Akechi Mitsuhide. Other than that... I am tired... Let's go down. Hosokawa Nobumoto slowly lay down, turned sideways, and tears inadvertently slipped down the corners of his eyes.
