When the Matsunaga family Ashigaru was in the camp, resting, the samurai were also resting in the big tent, seeing that the time was almost up, Matsunaga Hidei was just about to give an order, only to see a Ashigaru walking into the big tent briskly, and reported loudly: "Report to the lord, the Oda army has arrived outside the castle of Shinguiyama yesterday, the army has thousands of people, Lord Nanmu ordered his subordinates to report to the lord as soon as possible, Lord Kusunoki asked the lord to send reinforcements quickly, otherwise I am afraid that the castle of Shingui Mountain will not be protected, and please make a decision." ”

"What, how could the Oda Army suddenly appear outside the castle of Nobukiyama, this is absolutely impossible." Matsunaga couldn't accept such a fact at all, so he opened his mouth and shouted loudly.

In his opinion, there is no possibility of a sudden attack by the Oda army, and now the battle between the Ashikaga family and the Miyoshi family is not over, and the Takayama clan should also go to help the Ashikaga family, after all, the Takayama clan is still holding the position of the Kyoto Division, which is also for the sake of what Matsu Nagahide regards this time as the best opportunity to destroy the Tsutsui family, and now whether it is the Miyoshi family or the Takayama clan, it is impossible to press himself again, so he wants to take advantage of the other party's weakness to win Yamato in one fell swoop.

But who knows that the Takayama clan clan did not play cards according to common sense, and it was understandable that he did not send troops to help the Ashikaga family, but he went straight to the main city of his family, which is too incomprehensible, when did the Takayama clan and the Tsutsui family come together again?

The more Matsunaga Hide's thought about it, the more headache he had, originally he planned very well, especially the war between the Ashikaga family and the Miyoshi family was provoked by the Takayama clan, in Matsunaga Hide's opinion, as long as the two families started a war, then the Takayama clan would not be able to stay out of the matter, and then the Miyoshi army and the Takayama army, which were threatening to themselves, fell into the quagmire of war at the same time, and they couldn't take care of Yamato at all, and this was the best time to eliminate Tsutsui and occupy Yamato in one fell swoop.

At that time, he ruled hundreds of thousands of stones, and if he couldn't develop independently with such strength, if he took refuge in the Oda family, he would definitely be the number one force in his family.

And from the beginning, the situation is indeed developing according to his own vision, although the Takayama clan has been secretly moving, however, he does not think that the Takayama clan will risk the world's disapproval, not to help Ashikaga, to support Tsutsui, and according to the intelligence, Tsutsui and Oda, have nothing to do with the Takayama family, and there was no contact before, even if Tsutsui goes to ask for help now, it is impossible to complete it in the short term, even if the Takayama clan agrees to send the army, but by then, Tsutsui has been destroyed, and he has no power to return to the sky, This is also the reason why Matsunaga Shu resolutely went out to the army, although he has been in countless dangers in his life, but he still has a great grasp of this matter.

But who would have thought that the Gaoshan Clan Sect would really dare to risk the world's greatness and go out of the army in such a short time, how much courage it would take, at least he couldn't do it.

The Gaoshan Clan Sect is really terrifying, how could he be an enemy of such a person? The more Matsunaga Xiu thinks about it, the more he feels a chill down his spine, in terms of strategy, he doesn't play cards according to common sense, and he can still understand it, but he is the same politically, no one knows what he is thinking, what he is going to do next, how can he offend such a person, it seems that it is better to take refuge in the Oda family as soon as possible, only in this way can he not find an excuse to attack.

This time, Matsunaga Xiu is completely admitted, not for anything else, just because he doesn't have enough strength, and now he can only choose Taoguang Yanghui, he only has two thousand elites, although it is enough to defend the territory, but if he leads the army out of battle, then the territory is his biggest weakness.

The retainers present were also surprised when they heard that Xinguishan Castle was attacked, and now it was in danger, and they were also surprised, seeing that as long as they launched an attack, they were afraid that they would be able to take Tsutsui Castle, but they didn't have such a mind, even if they took it, what could they do, now that the enemy is currently in the present, it is impossible for the family to leave too much military momentum here, and after they hastily withdraw their troops, once the Tsutsui family counterattacks, then the city will still be lost, and it will lose no manpower, which is completely thankless, and now, The only thing that can be done is to return to the army as quickly as possible to rescue Shinguishan Castle, as long as the city is not lost, then everything is still possible, but if the city is lost, then when the Yamato Hao clan Zhilu Road Tsutsui family actually has the Oda family as a backer, it will definitely turn to Tsutsui, so that the family is under such pressure, it is difficult to develop. …,

After thinking of this, they wanted to open their mouths to persuade the lord, but they looked up and saw that the lord's face was clouded and he was thinking, so for a while, no one dared to open his mouth to disturb the lord at this time.

And at this moment, Matsunaga Xiu raised his head, finally made up his mind, and said: "Return to the army, immediately return to the army and Xinguishan City!" ”

After hearing this, the retainers finally breathed a sigh of relief, and they were just about to answer, only to hear Matsunaga Xiu speak again: "Takayama Youzhao! ”

"The subordinates are here, please give instructions to the lord."

"You immediately go to Gifu Castle to meet Oda Nobunaga, and convey to him my decision to return to the Oda family, you must fight for reason when you go, your task is to win enough autonomy for your family, okay, let's go down and prepare, in half an hour, Shingui Mountain Castle."

"It's the lord."

The retainers did not have any resistance to the matter of returning to the Oda family, after all, this was a strategy that the family had already set when the Miyoshi family and the Oda family were fighting, and they were not surprised that the lord mentioned it again today.

In order to be able to rush back to Xinguishan City as soon as possible, Matsunaga Army has very little time to rest all the way, they all know that if they delay here, Xinguishan City will be dangerous, Matsunaga Xiu and his retainers do not want to see Jucheng be broken, even the two thousand ashigaru are the same, they don't understand the big truth, but they know that if Jucheng is gone, then I'm afraid their good days will come to an end.

So no one complained about being tired along the way, and they were all in a silent hurry.

As a result, it would have taken a day and a half to travel, but it took Matsunaga to reach the outside of the city in less than a day.

And when the Matsunaga army was still seven or eight miles away from Shinguiyama Castle, Omiya Keiren and Muto Shunhide had already received the news and calmly led the army back to Luozhong Castle.

With the retreat of Miyoshi and the Matsunaga family, the situation in suddenly calmed down again.

In the living room of the castle tower of Mino Gifu Castle, Nobunaga was sitting in the middle, and at this time, he heard the chief of his closer, Shuichi Tanigawa, say outside the door, "Report to the lord, the messenger sent by Takayama-sama has arrived outside the castle tower......

"Send the information in." I only heard Nobunaga say lightly.

Although Nobunaga did not stay in Yamashiro Province, it did not mean that he did not pay attention there, and every other day, the Takayama clan would send an Ashigaru to send information about the Ashikaga family, even if he didn't want to, it was impossible.

After a short time, I saw Hasegawa Shu holding the codex in one hand and respectfully appearing in front of Nobunaga, who thought that the content on the codex would be the same as before, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

However, when he opened it and took a look, he realized that Lu Dao was different from the past.

On the codex, the clan made it very clear that Ashikaga Yoshiaki wanted to deal with the Oda family, and even the conversation at the time, the reaction of the Ashikaga family's retainers also described a rough idea, and after that, it was written that Akechi Mitsuhide's intention to return to his own family, and he also gave his own opinion.

Although the movement of the Ashikaga family is not good news for the Oda family, Oda Nobunaga has long thought that there will be such a day, so he doesn't care very much, after he saw it, he just stood up, walked to the window, and said to himself: "Can't you hold your breath so soon?" After speaking, the corners of his mouth turned upward, revealing a sneer.

"Someone."

After Nobunaga finished speaking, the door was opened with a "bang". Shuichi Hasegawa, who had just come out, walked in briskly again. "The subordinates are here, please give instructions to the lord."

"Immediately order the ······ of the minister" Nobunaga turned around, and was about to order him to summon the important ministers of the family, but after thinking about it, he still gave up, and the information said that although Ashikaga Yoshiaki wanted to secretly contact the various forces to surround the family, he would not go to where it was now, but he was not clear, and I am afraid that it would not be long before Senbei would send new information, and it would not be too late to consult with the retainers at that time. ”…,

And after receiving this information, the first wait was nearly a month, during this time, the clan did not send anyone to send any news, could it be that the Ashikaga family has begun to move, and the Takayama clan has encountered an accident?

Although he knew that the Gaoshan Clan Sect currently only had more than a thousand troops, even if the opponent's army was several times larger, it would be absolutely impossible for him to be annihilated by the enemy in an instant, but if the other party wanted to assassinate him...... The more Nobunaga thought about it, the more worried he became.

Just as he was about to send his ninjas to the mountain castle to inquire about the news, Naomasa, a close attendant on duty today, said outside the door: "Report to the lord, the subordinates sent by Lord Takayama have arrived outside the castle tower, and I ask the lord to decide." ”

Nobunaga was relieved to hear that the Takayama clan was no different.

The information sent this time is different from the previous time.,This codex is much thicker than the previous one.,This time the clan clan made a report to Nobunaga about the chaotic war in first.,The back is a letter of allegiance from the Tsutsui family willing to become a vassal of the Oda family.,However,The attitude of the Ashikaga family to the family is not written on it.,But between the lines,Nobunaga can still see that the clan has been intensifying the contradictions.,Even for the second.,He didn't hesitate to provoke the Ashikaga family and the Miyoshi family.。

And although it is not stated in the codex, Nobunaga can still think that it is not that the Ashikaga family does not want to do something to the family, but because they really can't take care of it now.

After a few months of recuperation, the newly seized territory has been almost digested, and the military strength of the family has also recovered, while holding the territory, there are still 10,000 troops to mobilize, and it is enough to eliminate the Ashikaga family with such an army situation, but the Ashikaga family is a public family after all, if you venture out of the army, the consequences are unimaginable, it seems that you have to find a way to make the Ashikaga family unable to calm down first.
