Chapter Ninety-One: The Asakura Family
"Li Jiajun, you didn't lie to me, did you?" Asai Nagamasa looked at the military general in front of him who had not entered the council hall for a long time, and his words were full of excitement.
"Lord Nagamasa, how can I lie to you, I'm here on behalf of the face of the Oda Army." Maeda Toshiya is now sure that there are indeed people here in Omi who do not welcome the arrival of their Oda Army.
For a while, the atmosphere in the council hall gradually changed, and the tension of the oppressive people disappeared in an instant, and the place immediately became brighter.
"Bold! Why did I see that my daimyo didn't come in to meet but stood outside, is this the atmosphere of Owari? "It's as if someone is provoking and wants to stir up some unnecessary incidents.
Maeda Toshiya didn't look for this person, he thought about the situation here quickly. Then he directly decided to kill him and not enter this hall.
Let's not talk about whether there are any traps inside, he doesn't want to go in with the current atmosphere. Asai Nagamasa is an Omi daimyo.,He didn't let the Maeda Toshiya come in just now.,Instead, he asked directly.,This is obviously hinting at the Maeda Toshiya that there are some situations here.,But it's at this time that someone here actually started to pick on the thorns.,If nothing else, someone should not want to be friends with the Oda family.,And arrange some clowns to get in the way!
Maeda Toshiya is waiting for Asai Nagamasa's response, and if he doesn't find this person and scold him, Maeda Toshiya will just turn around and leave.
"Well, what are these words. Everyone knows that I am good friends with Guo Jiajun, not to mention that my wife is still a piece of Guo Jiajun's heart. Maeda Toshi's family came to our Omi thousands of miles away, how can I say that he is also a guest, and I didn't ask people to come in just now, so why be so aggressive? "Asai Nagamasa is very good at being a man, and his few remarks made the person who spoke just now lose face, and he also gave him a step down. This approach made Maeda Toshiya even more suspicious of everything here, could it be that this Asai Nagamasa, who was hailed by others as the Eagle of Omi, was also a puppet?
"Li Jiajun, since you have come to Xiaogu City, why don't you go and rest for a while, and we will talk about it later. In this way, you see that I also have something to do, so let Ah Shi arrange a place to live for you, okay? Asai Nagamasa was very spiritual to support the Maeda Toshi family, and let his wife arrange a place for the Maeda Toshi family to live on his behalf. First, he clarified his position, and secondly, he also asked Maeda Toshiya to get some news from Ashi and prepare psychologically.
"In that case, then I might as well be respectful. Oh, Lord Nagamasa, there's one more thing I haven't said. Before I leave, Master Guo Jia asked me to tell you that he will stay in Kotani City for a few days. Knowing Asai Nagamasa's position, he decided to stay and see what this group of people were going to do.
"Oh? Guo Jiajun is coming to live? That's very good, Ashi, you go and arrange the residence of the Maeda Toshi, and I will arrange for someone to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Maeda Toshijun in the evening. Asai Nagamasa immediately turned around and asked Aichi to leave with Maeda Toshi's family, others don't know the situation here, but he understands!
The Omi Asai family has always been friendly with the Asakura family, and after hearing that the Oda army had entered the Omi realm, the Asakura family sent an envoy to persuade Asai Nagamasa to kill the Oda army completely. But Asai Nagamasa doesn't have the courage, not because he is timid, but because he doesn't know Guo Jia's strength, and he can't make a move on Guo Jia morally.
All this still needs to be conveyed by Aichi to the Maeda Toshiie, and he wants to see how the Oda family's envoy will respond.
It can be said that both sides are testing, Maeda Toshiya is testing the bottom line of this Asai Nagamasa's position, and Asai Nagamasa is testing the strength of the Oda Army.
"Okay!" Aichi responded gently, slowly got up and looked at Asai Nagamasa and blinked, and then pretended to be very cold and said to Maeda Toshiya, "Toshi-kun, let's go!" ”
Then Maeda Toshiya nodded, waiting for Aichi to put on his shoes and follow behind her, to know that he had a weapon in his hand all the time, so strong Asai Nagamasa didn't say anything, he understood this person's position, and the next thing was to know the situation in Omi.
"A bunch of maniacs!" Not far away, Ah Shi whispered in a deep voice.
"Huh? What did you say, Your Highness the Princess? "Maeda Toshiya really heard Ah Shi say a crazy thing, is he scolding him?
"You stupid, you've been with my brother for four years, why can't you even learn how to read words and colors!" Ah Shi muttered angrily.
"Didn't you see a guy sitting next to my nerd? Can't you guess who that person is? "Ah Shi is really angry, if she wasn't a daughter, she would have put on Rong armor and commanded the army.
"I didn't guess, but it must be someone who doesn't want me to succeed in Owari!" As for who this person is, Maeda Toshiya really has no clue, but he knows that this person is definitely uneasy and kind.
"Huh? Haven't you heard of the Asakura family? It's Echizen on the north side of Omi! You've always heard of Yoshikage Asakura! When Aichi said a few keywords, Maeda Toshiya instantly sorted out what he was thinking about.
"Echizen's Asakura clan? When did we Owari become hostile to them? There's no reason for this group of people to stop us! ”
Higashiyamado is a mixed bag, and there are several powerful forces behind it that dominate everything, the Asai family of Omi, the Echizen Asakura clan, the Ise Miyoshi clan, and the Rokkaku clan who have nothing to do!
To put it bluntly, these four had a mediocre relationship with Owari at the beginning, but now it has evolved into a situation where Miyoshi is at odds with them, and Asai is at good terms with them. But to put it bluntly, they are to blame for the three good and evil, and the friendship of Asai is just marrying Ashi. Then the problem arises, the Asakura clan has no reason to oppose the Oda family at all!
This made Maeda Toshiya begin to analyze the situation of Higashiyamado, Omi and Echizen generations are friendly, they are an inseparable ally, but these two are opposed to Miyoshi Rokkaku at the same time, and Guo Jia has shared part of the pressure to launch a full-scale war against Miyoshi, at this time they have no reason to fight against Guo Jia! If nothing else, their little strength is enough for them to drink a pot.
"! It's really a lack of people's hearts! After analyzing it, Maeda Toshiya thought of the most likely situation, that is, the Asakura family wanted to take advantage of Guo Jia's arrival to cooperate with Omi to annihilate the Oda army in one fell swoop, but this is interesting. Of course, they know that Owari has launched a full-scale war against Ise, and as long as they can keep Guo Jia here, they can certainly get a piece of the pie from Owari's side!
"This group of people! His heart can be punished! Maeda Toshiie was furious, he was thinking about how to deal with this problem, and the most important thing was that all this was just his speculation.
"Guessed it? Don't get in trouble! "Aichi doesn't want Maeda Toshiya to make any strange moves.
"Idiot asked me to pull you out just to tell you this. Now that you know the bad news, I'll tell you the good news. "Aichi took Maeda Toshiya to find a place where there was no one and was going to tell him everything, and then let Maeda Toshiya think about how to do it himself.
"The good news is that the nerds didn't gather any soldiers, but they did garrison them in other cities near Kotani Castle."
This news was not good news for Maeda Toshiie, who had been on the battlefield for a long time and certainly knew how to lead his troops, and although his troops were not gathered in Kotani Castle at this time, they formed an encirclement formation in other places. If Guo Jia is careless, or if Asai Nagamasa does not attack for morality, it will definitely bring a lot of trouble to Guo Jia!
"Your Royal Highness Princess, don't worry. The Asai family and the Asakura family together don't cause a little trouble for our Oda army. Handle a situation with ease! Maeda Toshiya said proudly with his head held high.
"Where has my brother gone?" Ah Ichi didn't believe what he said, and there was news long before Maeda Toshiya came, and the Oda army led by Guo Jia started a full-scale war with Miyoshi in two ways. Now that the Oda Army has to deal with the Miyoshi people on the one hand, and think about things here on the other, she doesn't believe that the Oda Army can have more than 50,000 troops in four years.
"I guess it will be there in four or five days." Aichi hasn't returned to Owari, of course she doesn't know how the Oda Army is now, but Maeda Toshiya knows! The total strength is about 30,000, and the equipment of all kinds of corps is almost complete, and all of them are the gods of the battlefield! In his heart, the Oda Army is the strongest!
"What are you going to do?" Ah Shi then asked anxiously, listening to Maeda Toshi's words, Guo Jia was probably about to reach the hinterland of Omi.
"Now it's not what I want to do, but to look at those two people. We don't mind taking a few strongholds anyway. Maeda Toshiya shrugged his shoulders and said in a relaxed tone.
And his performance surprised Ah Shi, could it be that the Oda Army is so strong now? Could it be that Guo Jia can really destroy Omi and Echizen now?
"Okay, then I'll arrange a room for you." Ah Shi regained that feeling of coldness, and quietly chatted with Maeda Toshiya.
"How's my brother doing?"
"It's okay, it's just that Shangluo's affairs have been busy for two months."
"By the way, Mino did you really take it?"
"yes. Now Owari is thriving! ”
"What about Guidie's sister-in-law? Hasn't my brother had a child with Guidie's sister-in-law yet? ”
"Alas, don't mention it......"
The two of them chatted without a word as if they were gossiping, and the key was that there were some things that Maeda Toshiya really didn't know. And Ah Shi asked endlessly, not to mention that there were some things he couldn't say yet. But these two people were brought out by Guo Jia, and calling them stupid is humiliating them, and these two people are better than the other.
Their seemingly casual answers gave both sides a chance to think, and in this way, they also showed the people of Omi the sincerity of one of the generals of the Oda Army.
"Asakura! What exactly do you want to do? ”
