"Bang, bang, bang" Oda Nobunaga tapped the low table of the handrail with a folding fan.

The retainers stopped arguing and looked at Nobunaga in unison.

"In that case......" Oda Nobunaga scratched his head. Yes~~~! Let's all go back and rest! It's getting late! He said after a long yawn, then stood up and walked inside.

Everyone was stunned and speechless.

**************************************************************

It's been 3 hours since Oda Nobunaga walked into the ashram and there has been no sound. Only the lights are always bright.

"Looks like he hasn't figured it out yet." I thought to myself. "History may really be changing! I should think of a way out for myself. ”

But Nobunaga is hard enough to say! The advice of those retainers sounded reasonable, but in reality it didn't work at all. Shibata Katsuya won't talk about him, he is definitely looking for his own death! Niwa Nagahide can't do it either! Even if Imagawa's 40,000 troops can't capture Cheongju Castle! It's just too unlikely. Once Imagawa Yoshimoto successfully entered Beijing and took control of the imperial court, he would order the world to crusade against the Oda family in the name of righteousness. It was also a big time at that time. Lin Tongsheng's reluctance to steal peace is also delusional! As soon as the peace is agreed, Imagawa Yoshimoto will immediately drive the Oda family to play with Rokkaku and Miyoshi! This only needs to be understood by looking at his vanguard and who is used to solve the siege of Dagao. And with the long-standing feud between Oda and Imagawa, he will definitely cross the river and tear down the bridge! Want to keep your wealth? Hum! Pipe dream!

"Who's out there?" Oda Nobunaga in the room finally spoke.

"I'm here!" The Iwamuro Nagato at the door replied. "My lord! What do you command? ”

"Let's prepare a table of wine!" Inside, Nobunaga's voice seemed a little languid.

"Yes! Lord, come soon! ”

"Bring me some more wine!"

"Yes!"

In a short time, a sumptuous banquet was delivered into Nobunaga's room. At this moment, there are probably few people in the castle who can sleep.

"Who's outside the door? All come in! Oda Nobunaga shouted from inside.

Iwamuro Nagato Mamoru and Hida Yamaguchi were waiting at the door, and Hashisuke Hasegawa, Tohachi Sato, Yazaburo Kato, and I were standing guard at the end of the corridor. A total of 6 people walked into the room one by one.

"What are you doing there? Come here! All sit down! Oda Nobunaga, who didn't see the slightest annoyance, waved to us who were still standing at the door.

Several of us looked at each other for a moment, and our hearts were all up and down, and although we didn't know why, we still sat down according to our words.

"Everybody pick up their cups! Fill the wine to the brim! Seeing us sit down, Nobunaga said, pointing to the wine glass on the table.

"My lord! We ......" Hidamori Yamaguchi looked at Nobunaga and then at us, a little hesitant.

"Do you want to disobey my orders?!" Nobunaga said with some anger, but it seemed to be pretended. "It's just a few of us, it's okay to drink a little!" (Sure enough, it's pretended)

A few of us and Nobunaga began to push and change glasses, and the atmosphere at the table gradually became warmer. But I always felt a little weird, as if something was wrong. "He doesn't want to die, he wants to pull us back, right?" I began to murmur to myself.

It's nothing to say that this is a little wine! At a class reunion in junior high school, I once climbed down from their table by myself, and I was nicknamed "the mayfly in the cup" because of my thin stature. The sake in front of me really doesn't have much degree. But at this moment, this situation, my heart is really chaotic!

"Tomorrow! Early tomorrow morning! …… Not in the morning! All intersections will be strictly checked! "I'm thinking about it in my heart." …… Wait until the news of the fall of Nakono Castle and Shoushan Castle comes! The troops stationed everywhere would return to Cheongju City for defense. …… In order to save food, people will be allowed to leave. …… Then! Riding the chaos of fleeing......"

"Tadabei!"

"Huh? …… Yes! Your Highness! At! ”

"What the hell are you thinking?" Oda Nobunaga stared at me with wide eyes. "Punish you with three drinks! Drink it up! "Seeing that I drank three glasses in a row, his interest was even higher." Let's connect the poems (and songs)! It's up to you to start! He pointed at Yazaburo Kato with his finger, then picked up a chopstick and struck the glass. (I think there is a suspicion of going crazy with alcohol)

"Where do you go out of here? …… Omi definitely can't! Ise doesn't do it either! All this was the route of advance of the Imagawa Army. …… Right! Take Xianzhi and hide in the mountains east of Mino. The mountains and roads are far away, the people are barren and poor, and people can only survive on wild vegetables and sweet potatoes. Not to mention the army! The robbers all ran away. …… When you get out of this, let's go to Sakai Town! ……”

"It's your turn!!" At that moment, Nobunaga's chopsticks hit me on the head.

"Yes? …… Be! Your Highness! "I'm determined." Can...... But I really don't know how to write poems! I...... I just came back from overseas, and I really haven't studied yet! "The kind of thing that has to be rutted and has no rhyme is not so easy to learn.

"You really don't know anything?!" Oda Nobunaga squinted at me, his voice suddenly an octave higher. Everyone else looked at me worriedly, as if they were sweating for me.

"I ...... I know some Chinese poems! "I decided not to feel uncomfortable during this extraordinary time, so I thought of a workaround.

"Han poems! …… That's good! Read it and hear it! "He let me go.

My brain was so messy that I decided to find the first one. "Hold the bow as strong, and use the arrow as the long. Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king. (Primary school textbook, overlapping words, concise and concise.) ）

"What do you say?!?!?!" Nobunaga asked, staring sharply into my eyes.

"I ...... I didn't ...... I didn't ...... "I felt a burning liquid flow from my neck to my back. "Temple...... Your Highness does not ...... I like it, I'll change it! ”

"Good! Good! Good! Oda Nobunaga laughed out loud after saying three good words in a row. Wait for me to sing and dance! He stood up and walked to the cabinet, picked up a small drum on it and threw it at Yamaguchi Hida Mamoru and shouted, "Beat the drum for me!" He dropped his right sleeve and exposed his arm, and danced with a folding fan in his hand. While dancing and singing: "Fifty years in the world is nothing more than a small thing compared to the sky." Look at the world, dreamy like water, let life be for a while. Immediately after the extinction, this is the seed of Bodhi. Frustration, full of heart. Thou shalt go to Kyoto at this moment, and if thou see the head of Dun Shengqing......"

In this silent night, the sound of singing and drums was heard far away...... Far away......
