93. Seeking the Tao and solving doubts
"His Highness Nobunaga's way of doing this...... It's a little too unkind! "A room full of people fell silent after hearing all that had happened, but I didn't expect that it was Shima Katsutoshi who spoke first. To make him, who was deeply poisoned by faithfulness and righteousness, say such a thing, which shows how much Oda Nobunaga has gone too far this time!
"Smack!" Ishikawa Tadatsuna slapped the low table in front of him and roared loudly: "Go to TMD, don't do it for him!" He swept the eyes of the crowd around the faces with a gaze full of flames. What is this called? We fought so hard and ended up like this! If you don't do it for him, return Yudan Valley, Guichuankou, and Ruojiang City to him! Whatever he gave him back, we can be regarded as benevolent and righteous! Bring all our soldiers, horses, and supplies to Hequan, and your lordship will set up your own banner! Let Sakuma be the guardian of Izumi?! Well! He let out a hot breath of smoke from his nostrils. Just let him come, I'm afraid that he will have a life to come and not to go! ”
"My lord, maybe there is another solution to the matter?" Although Yamanaka Kanosuke was also slightly angry, he still restrained himself and said: "His Royal Highness Nobunaga may have his own special thoughts, and he may also have some misunderstanding about adults!" I think it's better to find a way to communicate with Qibu, and things will always be resolved......"
"But time! It's too late! Ishikawa Tadatsuna shouted as he raised his eyebrows. …… If the lord wants to make a move, he should prepare now, even if we don't act here for the time being, we should send a letter to Lord Takenaka in Izumi, otherwise we will be caught off guard if there is a change! ”
"My lord! Why don't I protect you to go to Qibu in person and make it clear in person! At this time, Shinhachiro said angrily that his methods were always so direct.
"Boom!" Keiji Maeda pulled out the ribs around his waist and struck the floor in front of him with the handle of his knife. "Don't mess around! Don't mess around! He shouted twice, turned to me, and said, "Lord, you decide!" We'll all follow you! ”
I searched the crowd to see who had any other attitudes. Nagano Yemasa still had the same look as Tarzan collapsed in front of him, and it seemed that he didn't want to speak yet; Yoshitsugu Otani and Kazuki Tsuda are still young and may not be mature in their consideration of political issues; Nagano and Yamanaka Kanosuke have similar views; The three of Hanbingwei, Caizang, and Gao Hu were not there; Mitsunari and Naganobu didn't have any responsibility or affection for the Oda family in the first place...... "Mr. Philip, I want to hear what you think about this matter!" I asked this "employee" who was not a retainer that sometimes the stones of his mountains could really attack jade!
"As an adventurer who came to the East to pan for gold, I don't know enough about a lot of things in Japan......" he scratched his head with some doubt. This includes your traditional ideas and ways of thinking about things! So if you make a rash suggestion, it is very likely to interfere with your judgment! ”
"You don't have to think too much about it, now it's just a possibility!" I waved my hand to dispel his concerns. "Everything is unknown now, and your advice is just a reference!"
"Then I'll be brave!" In this case, Philippe•Luc Besson simply ceased to be polite. “…… I don't know what Wakasa is called, but I've heard it's a pretty sinister place! But it doesn't seem to matter, your army can be said to be the most elite and advanced in Japan, and with some effort I don't think it will be difficult to gain a foothold there! Now the crux of the matter is not here......" He paused for a moment, saw that the attention of the crowd was focused on him, and continued: "Now that you have done great things, but have not received the reward you deserve, but have been sent to a place where there is no future to limit your development, this can only mean one thing: your lord is beginning to be suspicious of you! Maybe your patience got you away with it this time, but there are two of them! What about next time? What about next time? You should know your own bottom line, how long can you endure it? His words made everyone ponder the question.
"Let's get here today!" I stood up and felt like my head was going to explode. "Anyway, it's not in this day or two, let's think about it again!" After that, I walked to the inner hall in the back.
"Your Excellency, you're back!" At the bedroom door, the little maid Ah Die bowed to me.
"Hmm......" I snorted absentmindedly and reached for the sliding door to my bedroom.
"Madame and the young master are both with Madame Ying, do you want me to report it?"
"No need!" I retracted my hand and turned to the warbler's room, but stopped after a few steps. I don't want them to worry about me yet. "I'll go sit in the study for a while and pour me a cup of tea!"
Alone in the inner study and sat down, Adie poured me a cup of tea and then stepped out, and I began to think about the tricky question. Philip was right! I endured it this time, so what about next time? If I always do this, I will never get the kind of security I want, and I will always be a grasshopper with Oda Nobunaga on my hind legs! But now do you want to turn your face with Oda Nobunaga? Obviously, I don't have that ability right now, even though all the retainers and armies will follow me! If you endure it all the time, will you have that ability? Maybe it's choking! Tokugawa Ieyasu even put up with his son, and before Nobunaga died, he only owned two lands and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, but I didn't have the same kung fu as him! If you can't bear it......
"My lord, Lord Nagano has come to see me!" At this time, Ah Die suddenly whispered outside the door.
"Let him in!" I shouted out the door.
The back door was pulled open, and Nagano walked in under the guidance of Adie. He sat down in front of me, and soon a cup of tea was placed in front of him.
I just watched and didn't rush him, it was impossible for him not to have his own opinion on such a big thing. Just now, it was inconvenient to express his position in front of everyone, and now he is here for this.
"Lord, ......" Sure enough, after the door behind him was pulled shut, Nagano Yemasa said: "You must be worried at the moment, the old man doesn't have any perfect advice now, I just want to tell you a story first!" ”
"Teacher, please speak!" I know that's where the main topic begins.
"In the Spring and Autumn Period of the Han State, Mu Gong of the Qin State wanted to dominate!" I didn't expect him to tell me a Chinese story as soon as he opened his mouth. “…… He asked the wise man Baili Xi, who had been exchanged for five sheepskins, and said: Qin is located in a barbaric place on the frontier, not only far away from the princes of the Central Plains, but also often harassed by Rong Di, in this case, it is difficult to even participate in the alliance of the princes, how can he become their overlord? ”
"Then how did Baili Xi answer later?" It's not that I haven't read this history, I just can't think of anything that has anything to do with what I am now.
"Baili Xi's answer is very interesting, all the shortcomings have become advantages in his mouth!" Nagano Ye took a sip from his teacup. He said that in the land of Guanzhong, the mountains were like the teeth of fierce beasts, and the plains were narrow and winding like long snakes, and the king of Zhou was thrown to Qin because he was attacked by the dog Rong and could not defend it, and he himself moved to Luoyi in the hinterland of the Central Plains. It seems to be an act of avoiding danger, but in fact, it has gradually lost its authority because it has been held hostage by the princes! Because of the continuous conquest of Rong Di, the Qin State has become stronger and stronger, and if it does not participate in the alliance of the princes, its national strength will not be consumed, and it will annex the small state of Hulu in the west and the population of the country is getting bigger and bigger! As long as the king accumulates strength, and then peeps into the east by virtue of the danger of the mountains and rivers, as long as he has the opportunity, he can lead the army into the Central Plains, and then it will be up to the king whether to use grace or power for the princes! ”
"Sensei mean we can go to Wakasa?" I didn't quite understand the question. His argument was refreshing, but I still didn't understand it for a while.
"The lord is really wise, that's what the old man meant!" He smiled and nodded. “…… Although Wakasa is small and remote, there is really no development in this place alone, but it has extremely dangerous terrain, and it is not a problem to defend against enemy attacks! ”
"On both sides of Wakasa are Asakura and Hatano, and they are not only enemies, but also daimyo with hundreds of thousands of koku!" I'm still worried about the future. “…… In terms of our troops, it seems to be a bit ......"
"Don't worry about this!" Nagano Yemasa's tepid expression changed from his usual tepid expression and stared at me with blazing eyes. "Our army now has nearly seven thousand people, and they are all the elites of a hundred battles that the lord has carefully built over the years! Its training, equipment, and quality are not comparable to those third-rate armies of Asakura and Hatanoya, and if they want to defeat the Wakasa that we are defending in danger, they will have to devote the strength of the whole country! But...... Is this possible? ”
"Is it impossible?" I didn't calculate it very clearly for a while.
"Absolutely impossible!" He answered my questions in no uncertain terms. "Nothing is isolated, Asakura and Hatano have their own troubles, or they are more than enough to do!" He began to analyze it for me. "Asakura and Asai are the thorns in the side of the Shincho Palace, even if the two of them are united, it is not completely enough to compete, and they often invite the monks of the mountain gate to help in the battle! Asakura Yoshikage, not to mention withdrawing all his troops, even if half of his men and horses are glued to Wakasa Shin's main hall, he can't spare him, how can he not understand this?! He breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Let's talk about the Hatano family again, their situation is not at all easier than that of the Asakura family! Due to the continuous eastward advance of the Maori forces, the situation in the eastern part of the western country has become increasingly confusing, and the Akamatsu family of Harima, the Urakami family of Bizen, and the Yamana family of Tajima are all looking at Tanba and Tango, and the previous assistance to the Asakura family was only a temporary move, and they had no spare strength to attack Wakasa again! ”
"You're saying none of them can be a threat to Wakasa?" Listening to him say this, I gradually gained confidence.
"It's not a threat, maybe it's an opportunity?" Nagano's tone changed to enthusiasm. "The two families of Asakura and Hatano are both big but not strong, and it will not be difficult for our army to encroach on their territory as long as they fight steadily! Once the battle situation of the Shin Chang Hall changes, the lord will be the vanguard due to the geographical advantage, and whether the territory moves to the east or west, it will be a great opportunity for Jiaolong to enter the sea! ”
"In that case...... I'll go to the book and take orders! ”
