Chapter 52: Truthfulness

Oda Nobunaga has been having a good time lately, and on the one hand, although the family does not know the details of the meeting at Shotokuji Temple, it is obvious that the connection between the Saito and Oda families has become closer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info The trade between each other has increased, and there have been waves of diplomatic cooperation, and it is obvious that the two families are no longer a simple marriage. So naturally, all this is attributed to Oda Nobunaga.

On the other hand, the smooth progress of the strategy of the Cheongju Oda family has exceeded everyone's expectations. At present, the Cheongju Oda family was finally annexed by the Oda family, almost just one thing to do. And if the Oda family in Kiyosu is taken, then the Oda family will completely rule the entire four prefectures of Owari, which even Oda Nobuhide has never done.

As a result, Oda Nobunaga's prestige in the family has been greatly improved again, and even those retainers who are not optimistic about Oda Nobunaga are now beginning to seriously consider who is the more suitable governor of the Oda family. Is it Oda Nobunaga, who has already made achievements but whose personality and behavior are a little difficult to accept? Or is his personality and behavior very in line with the standards in everyone's hearts, but there is no half-grade Oda Nobuyuki? Well, the answer is actually not difficult to choose.

"Overlord Maru, have you heard about it? Kanjuro's kid went crazy again, causing several of his retainers to come to me, hoping to persuade Kanjuro. Oda Nobunaga said with a smile. Oda Nobunaga always thought that Oda Nobuyuki was just a very confused younger brother, so he didn't treat him as an enemy. However, Oda Nobuyuki, who has always seen that he is unhappy, will still be happy if he encounters some trouble. Because in this way, not only can you watch a good show, but you can also take this opportunity to knock Oda Nobuyuki.

"Cut, that kid is a fantasist, and he still thinks that he is the best candidate for the governor of the Oda family, I don't know what to do!" Yamada Masamura said disdainfully. He doesn't have a good impression of Oda Nobuyuki, so naturally he won't say anything good about him. And he doesn't think that Oda Nobuyuki still has the ability to rebel now, you must know that today is different from history, Hirate Masahide is still there, and Oda Nobunaga is more accepted by his retainers. In this case, even if Oda Nobuyuki wants to rebel, someone has to support him!

Although he didn't go out of his way to find out anything, Yamada Masamura still knew that Shibata Katsuie and Lin Xiuzhen had been close to Oda Nobuyuki for a while now.

Hearing this, Oda Nobunaga sighed softly, "Alas, in fact, it's because of my mother, otherwise how could Kanjuro be so hostile to my brother?" Oda Nobunaga sighed.

He naturally knew why Mrs. Tsuchida hated him, and what mother would hate her child in the first place? But Oda Nobunaga is not the kind of person who will be soft, although even if he is soft now, it will only make Mrs. Tsuchida think that Oda Nobuyuki is suitable for being the governor.

Feeling that the topic seemed to suddenly become heavy, Yamada Masamura quickly forked the topic, "Speaking of which, Oda Nobutomo, that guy didn't react at all in the face of such oppression? And there is no movement on the other side of Iwakura and Mikawa, have you already given up? "Yamada Masamura was a little puzzled, if it was him, he would have sent troops to fight with the Oda family a long time ago.

"I'm a little confused about this, but I can't think of any reason why I might really give up?" Oda Nobunaga said with a smile.

Just as the two guys were talking about the mess, a small surname slowly walked over, "Your Highness, Lord Yamada, Lord Spo is here!" ”

"Oh? Yiyin, that kid is here? Please! Oda Nobunaga said happily.

"Then I'll leave first, I'm too lazy to listen to you guys over there." Yamada Masamura yawned and was about to leave. He knew who that Spo-sama was, in fact, there were only two Spo clans in the entire Owari Society who came to Oda Nobunaga, one was Owari Guardian Spo Yoshito, and the other was his son Spo Yoshigin. And in terms of title, the former is His Royal Highness, and the latter is His Excellency.

The reason why Yamada Masamura planned to leave was because no matter which Spo came to Oda Nobunaga, he was not talking about business, but discussing the literary issues that were big for him when he listened to them.

"Haha~ Overlord Maru, don't go, you kid! Let's stay and discuss it together~" Where would Oda Nobunaga let Yamada Masamura leave so easily, you must know that every time like this, it is when Yamada Masamura makes a fool of himself, Oda Nobunaga doesn't want to let go of this opportunity.

"I suddenly remembered that Ah Shi asked me to help her buy something!" Where does Yamada Masamura not know what Oda Nobunaga is thinking? It's just that all kinds of reasons were said, but it didn't let Oda Nobunaga let go. At this time, Spoo Yiyin had already walked in.

"Cut, I'll pretend to be asleep later, see what you can do with me!" Yamada Masamura muttered unhappily.

"Poof!" With a sound, Yamada Masamura looked up strangely, but was surprised to see Spo Yoshiin kneeling in front of Oda Nobunaga. "His Highness Oda! Please help me get my revenge! Spoo yelled in grief. With a single voice, Oda Nobunaga and Yamada Masamura both reacted.

"Something is wrong!" The two glanced at each other, and then Oda Nobunaga hurriedly stepped forward to help Spo Yoshiin up, "Spo-sama has something to say slowly, as long as I, Nobunaga, can help, I will definitely not refuse!" ”

Hearing Oda Nobunaga's words, Spo Yoshiin cried and told what had happened.

It's simple, as Yoshigin was out hunting today, and a bloodied retainer approached him and told him that his father, Yoshitomo Spo, had been killed by Nobuyo Oda. And then...... There is no then.

"Where's that retainer?" Oda Nobunaga asked after listening to Yoshigin's words. Although Spo Yiyin has a good relationship with him, he must be cautious in such a big matter.

Soon, the retainer was brought over, and Oda Nobunaga kept asking various questions, and the retainer seemed to know why Oda Nobunaga asked such a question, and answered honestly.

"Hmm...... Spo-sama, I already know about this, but you know, I have to be responsible for the Oda family. But don't worry, I won't let anyone who dares to be rude to the guardians! Oda Nobunaga comforted Yoshigin.

"Well, I'll leave everything to His Highness Oda!" Spo Yoshiin also knew that it was impossible for Oda Nobunaga to agree to send troops so easily, so he did not rush. In other words, at this time, he seems to have woken up from the loss of his soul just now. Hawkers, in the end, it's a person from a big family, although his ability is not very good, but he doesn't have to say anything about the judgment of the situation.

After only two people were left in the room, Oda Nobunaga and Yamada Masamura, Oda Nobunaga asked, "Overlord Maru, what do you think?" ”

"My lord, there must be something strange about this matter......"

Well, the above sentence is just a word count. After hearing Oda Nobunaga's words, Yamada Masamura didn't have much idea. Because he knew that this incident was true, after all, after this incident, Oda Nobunaga entered the castle of Kiyoshu, which was also a big event, and history was recorded.

"Well, I don't think Lady Spoo will use this to deceive people, but just in case, I can ask Mori-sama to send someone to investigate. But we're ready to send troops now. Since Oda Nobutomo killed His Highness the Guardian, it is very likely that he will attack us first. Yamada Masamura said his thoughts.

Soon, Mori Kocheng brought back accurate information that Oda Nobutomo had indeed led an army to attack Spo Yoshito's mansion, and Spo Yoshitomo had committed suicide. Immediately, Oda Nobunaga immediately convened an emergency assessment.

"His Royal Highness Spo Yoshitomo was killed by the traitor Oda Nobuno......" When this sentence was said by Oda Nobunaga, the retainers below were instantly stunned.

Although in this era, the majesty of the imperial court has fallen to a terrifying underestimate, but there are really few people who dare to do something against these guards who have no real power. "Oda Nobutomo is crazy?" That was the only thought of the crowd when they heard the news.

But soon, they reacted, "This is the best chance to capture Cheongju!" So, they looked at Oda Nobunaga with fiery eyes, and Oda Nobunaga did not disappoint them.

"I have decided to send troops to fight against the traitor Oda Nobutomo! Help the Guardian retake Cheongju Castle! Oda Nobunaga said loudly.

"Kanjuro, you're in charge of guarding that Furuno! Singer! Ordered you to attack Cheongju Castle as the vanguard! Masamura, you are the lieutenant general! Assist Singer! Uncle is in charge of monitoring Iwakura in the north, Sakuma is morishige, and you are in charge of monitoring the Mikawa side. The rest, follow me! ”

Oda Nobunaga's order did not surprise anyone, because it was almost a regular routine when the Oda family sent troops in recent years. It's just that although Oda Nobuyuki quietly accepted the order, his eyes were full of resentment. Although everyone thought that Oda Nobunaga asked Oda Nobuyuki to guard Nakono Castle out of trust, he believed that Oda Nobunaga deliberately did not let himself go out. He knew very well that the reason why Oda Nobunaga was able to win the trust of most of his retainers from being accepted at the beginning was because of his military exploits.

It's just that no matter how dissatisfied he is, he only holds it in his heart, because he knows very well that now he has no chance to resist Oda Nobunaga.

On the other hand, Shibata Katsuie faithfully carried out Oda Nobunaga's orders, and soon the vanguard troops had been gathered. "Lord Yamada, I've admired your martial arts for a long time~" Shibata Katsuie smiled.

"Haha~ Lord Shibata, don't say that, who doesn't know the ability to lead the army to fight in your own family, Lord Shibata, you are the number one~" Yamada Masamura also smiled. Belch...... This kid is still flattering? Magical!
