"Oh! Is it the Little Six? I'm so disrespectful! "I grabbed Sheng Meng, who was about to have a seizure, and sat down cross-legged." I've admired your name for a long time! ”

"Really? You're not saying a kind word? Wasuka Masakatsu looked at me with a contemptuous smile on his lips.

"You're so rude!" Shima Katsu finally broke out. "What are you! My father-in-law came in person regardless of the danger, but you actually ......" Although I held him down and couldn't rush out, he was still so angry that his face was red and trembling.

I bowed down to Masakatsu Wasuka and said, "I'm going to make you laugh!" He was just a little quick-tempered, and he didn't mean anything disrespectful. Please also ......"

"Nothing, nothing!" Masakatsu Wasuka waved his hand at me. "We don't have that much attention to these rough blanks! Besides......" He looked Shima Katsu up and down with his eyes. "This subordinate of yours has a commendable courage, and although he is young, he is already a good man! I appreciate it so much, you don't have to worry about anything! ”

"Able to bend and stretch! Sure enough, it's a character! "I mentally improved his score." If you can be so forgiving, you're welcome! What I said just now is also for a reason...... "I looked at Masakatsu Wasuka incomprehensibly. "Although I'm not from this area, and I haven't been here for a long time, I'm already full of prestige for the Little Six! Say that although you are in the green forest, you are anxious for justice and righteousness. Especially the grievances are clear, and the friendship is valued...... "I don't stab him lightly." "I have a good relationship with Fujiyoshiro, and he still often talks about how you took care of him in the first place. Say that before he arrived at Oda's house, thanks to your takeover! For your great kindness, he will remember it in his heart! ”

"Huh? …… Ha! Ha! A hint of embarrassment appeared on Wasuka Masakatsu's face. It's hard for 'monkey' that he still remembers those old things...... And three! He shouted to the man who showed us the way, "Why don't you pour tea for the guests?" It's really unruly! Then he turned to me and said, "We are all mountain people, please don't mind!" ”

"Nothing! I'm just an 'upstart' myself......" I picked up my cup and took a sip of the tea I've handed over. "Although this era is chaotic, there is one good thing: no one has to feel inferior to their origins! As long as you have the ability, you can make a career. When the three Dao people were young, they were just oil sellers! ”

"Hah! Ha! Ha! You can say that again! Wasuka Masakatsu high-fived and laughed. Lord Zhuxing is quick to talk and is very angry with me! Oh~! By the way......" he asked, as if he had just discovered, "didn't we say that we should bring two retinues each?" How do you ......?"

"Little Big Six won't hurt me! What does it matter if one or two do? After making a joke, I immediately said, "I actually brought an attendant, a ninja ......."

"Ninja?!" Maeno Nagayasu exclaimed in surprise and changed color slightly, but Wasuka Masakatsu didn't react.

"Yes! is a ninja. I nodded affirmatively. Before I came out, I suddenly remembered something and asked him to check it for me. No way! I have a very low position and a limited number of people. He'll be here in a moment! If the little six people are not at ease, they can ask the brothers outside to search it. It's not an outsider, it's okay! ”

"That's what Lord Stars said...... I'm so ashamed! Hearing my words, Masakatsu Wasuka's face finally turned red. Lord Zhuxing is really a hero in the world, and compared to you, we do seem a little childish! Speaking of which, he glanced at Maeno Nagayasu beside him with his eyes. Even people like you are vying to do it, so it's no wonder that the Oda family is thriving! He seemed to be a little emotional.

"In that case...... Why don't the Little Six abandon the darkness and turn to the light? "I think it's time to get down to business.

"Lord Stars! Right?! His voice immediately cooled, but I didn't hear much anger in it. I don't deny that His Royal Highness Oda Nobunaga is a master! But our Meinong Yilong Highness is not bad! ”

"Oh! Do you really think so? "I looked at Masakatsu Wasuka with pleasure.

"Is there something wrong?" He was a little confused. "Are you dissatisfied with Lord Yilong's father-killing and seizure of the throne? This is a troubled time, I can't imagine that you still have such pedantic ideas! ”

"That's not right! Wrong! You misunderstood what I meant. I shook my head repeatedly. The same thing, Takeda Shingen did the same! This is the way to survive in troubled times, and it's not a big deal! I'm asking you what you think of the three great people of the Tao? ”

"The three great people of the Dao? Indeed, he is a great man! Wasuka Masakatsu replied in the affirmative.

"The three great people of the Tao have predicted that Saito Yoshiryu will tie his horse to the door of His Highness Nobunaga!" I laughed. "Besides, although Owari is weak at the moment, it is ironclad, and although Mino is strong, it is strong and strong! Because of the compromise and balance policy that has been adopted since the three major people of the Dao, Mino Hao is strong, and the three people and the eighteen generals have their own hearts. In this case, self-preservation is already struggling, where is the spare energy to expand outward? It may not matter if there are powerful figures like Daosan and Yilong, once they ...... But no one is optimistic about Saito Ryuxing! ”

"Are you a little alarmist?" Wasuka Masakatsu touched his beard with his hand. "Although Lord Yilong is sick in bed now, after all, spring and autumn are in full bloom! What reason is there to worry about something so far away? ”

"Oh? Is it? But there is an old saying, 'If you don't have a long-term concern, you must have near-term worries'! "Although I had a smile on my face, I was so anxious that I opened the pot." Why hasn't this Hayato come back yet! Don't delay me......"

"Boss! A man claiming to be an entourage of Lord Zhuxing asked for a meeting. "Just as I was in a hurry, a voice sounded from outside the door.

"Huh?!" Masakatsu Wasuka and Maeno Nagayasu looked at me together after one glance.

"That's probably the guy I just talked about!" I said with suppressed excitement.

"Let him in!" With Masakatsu Wasuka's shout, Kusunoki Hayato walked in. As soon as I saw the look on his face, I was excited: "It's done!" I guessed it! ”

"Just say what you have! There is no need to hide anything from Koroku and Maeno-sama. "I was the first to speak.

"Yes!" Kusunoki Hayato bowed. "In the early hours of the morning three days ago, Yoshiryu Saito passed away from illness......"

"What !!" Masakatsu Wasuka and Maeno Nagayasu exclaimed in unison.

"Michitoshi Nagai, the patriarch of the Saito family, has blocked the news and is arranging for Saito Yoshiryu's sister-in-law Ryuko to succeed him!" Hayato continued to report.

"What is Saito Ryuko doing?" Ignoring the shock of Masakatsu Bee, I asked for a long time.

"He sang and danced all day with Mamoru Saito, Shinhachiro Nagai and others, and he seemed to be very happy!"

"How? Does the Little Big Six need to be verified? I could stay here for two days. After getting a satisfactory answer, I asked Masakatsu Wasuka.

"No need!" After a moment of silence, Wasuka Masakatsu replied, "I accept your conditions, and the Wasuka Party is willing to be the internal response of the Oda family!" ”

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

Three months later, the construction of the castle on Mt. Ninomiya was completed and the castle was named Komakiyama Castle, and Oda Nobunaga immediately moved the castle from Kiyoshu Castle to this place.

Five months later, Niwa Nagahide succeeded in rebelling against the lord of Oguchi Castle, Toyogo Mamoru Nakajima, and the lord of Kuroda Castle, Shinsuke Wada. Soon after, Shibata, Niwa, Sakuma and other generals captured Daidoji Temple, and Oda Nobukiyo saw that the general situation had gone, abandoned the castle and fled to Kai, and Inuyama Castle was conquered by Nobunaga.

Oda Nobunaga finally gained an advantage over the Saito family......
