As the sky grew brighter, the shouts of killing outside Iimori Castle gradually disappeared, and in the face of the three-sided attack of Matsudaira, Tsutsui and Kinoshita, although the Miyoshi trio continued to boost their morale, and even led their own team to kill the enemy in person, but obviously, these were just useless resistance. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the face of the high morale of the Oda army, the Miyoshi army only resisted for less than half an hour before it completely collapsed.

"Haha! Thank you Tsutsui-sama and Matsudaira-sama for your support! If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have to live and die with Iimori Castle. Kinoshita Hideyoshi laughed and said, his words are not nonsense, if Iimori Castle and Kawachi Country are really lost, although the incident happened suddenly, Kinoshita Hideyoshi may not have the face to see Oda Nobunaga again.

"Hehe, don't be too modest, if it weren't for you, Murai-sama, and Ake-sama to react in time, I'm afraid most of would have changed hands at this time." Matsudaira Ieyasu chuckled.

On the other hand, after Sakai Tadaji's 5,000 men entered Katsuryuji Castle, Shimoma Yoriren and others knew that the time had come to withdraw their troops. Although everyone is a little unwilling in their hearts, there is no way, without a unified command, how can they capture the Shenglong Temple City, which has skyrocketed in numbers? And most importantly, the appearance of the Matsudaira army gave Honganji and other forces a warning that the Asakura and Asai coalition forces were not able to stop the Oda army in Echizen.

And once the Oda army returned to help, although it was not known how many of them were left, it was obvious that neither Akai nor other forces wanted to meet this army in the field. A few years ago, when the Oda army went to Luo, they still remember the majesty of the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves.

However, although the enemy retreated, Akechi Mitsuhide and others still did not dare to be careless, and after sending ninjas to exchange with each other, Akechi Mitsuhide still sat in Katsuryuji Castle, Kinoshita Hideyoshi sat in Iimori Castle, and Murai Sadakatsu returned to Kyoto. As for Matsudaira Ieyasu, after leaving thousands of troops behind, he continued to lead his men to Mikawa.

Neither Akechi Mitsuhide nor Kinoshita Hideyoshi had any objections to this, because they both knew that once the Takeda family completely defeated the Imagawa family, then the next target would definitely be the Oda family.

And after learning of the retreat of the coalition forces, although Ashikaga Yoshiaki was very dissatisfied, he did not dare to offend Honganji Xianru, but continued to write crusade orders to the local daimyos, hoping that they could unite against the Oda family. Honganji Xianru was obviously not happy with such a result, but again, he didn't want to offend forces such as the Hatano family and the Akai family at this juncture. So after getting this result, he just continued to call on the Buddhists to launch a fight, so that Oda Nobunaga, the enemy of Buddhism, could see the power of Buddhism, and at the same time began to buy a large number of armaments, grain and grass, he knew very well that when Oda Nobunaga returned to, Ishiyama Honganji would usher in the most difficult battle.

On the other side, although the Rokkaku father and son who attacked Sawa Mountain Castle received help from some Omi wealthy families, most of the wealthy families still chose to stand on the side of the Oda family. In particular, Kamo Kenhide of Hino Castle, a samurai with a high status in Omi today, chose to support Oda Nobunaga, so that many wealthy families who were still wavering chose the Oda family.

This also made the idea of the Hexagon father and son to recapture Jiangnan completely failed, and in the face of Gamo Hyunxiu's support, the Rokkaku father and son immediately panicked. It wasn't that they were afraid of Gamo Kenhide, but that they were worried about the Oda army that followed. In desperation, he had no choice but to lead his army to withdraw to Ishiyama Honganji Temple. Well, although it is necessary to pass through Yamashiro and other territories from Settsu Province, it is obviously better than running to the Asai family or Ise Province. By the way, at this time, the Rokkaku father and son did not know that the Asai family had betrayed the Oda family.

I have to say that although Asai Nagamasa was forced to choose to betray the Oda family, all his subsequent actions proved that this person was indeed worthy of his title of Omi Eagle. An army of 8,000 slaughtered Echizen, and for several days no one found the Oda family. Although there are also relationships such as the Asai family being an ally of the Oda family, it is difficult to do so seamlessly without strong ability.

Kanesaki, after the retreat of the Asakura and Asai coalition forces, Oda Yoshinobu did not immediately lead the army to continue the retreat, but let them recuperate for a full day before starting to act. It's not that Oda Yoshinobu looks down on Asakura and Asai, on the contrary, it is precisely because he values it too much that he makes the safest choice.

Although it is possible to fall into the siege again by doing so, Oda Yoshinobu, who has recovered his strength, is confident that he will lead them out of the siege. It's just that as soon as the troops were ordered to start retreating, he received bad news.

"What?! Mori-sama died in battle?! Why only tell me now?! Oda Yoshinobu looked at everyone with a hideous face, and finally fell on Oda Shinna's body. In his opinion, there could be no one else in this group who dared to make such a decision except Oda Shinna.

"It's a decision that was made, and in fact, Shinna-sama and they just found out." Seeing this, Sen Kolong hurriedly explained.

Oda Yoshinobu was shocked to hear that he was worried that Mori Koshi's death would cause turmoil in the troops, and that Mori Kolong had carried Mori Kosei's body on his back until now. The pain of losing his father has not been tasted by Oda Yoshinobu in this life, because he really doesn't have much affection for his ninja father. But Oda Nobuhide's performance at the time of Hinodehide's death was enough for Oda Yoshinobu to understand how remarkable it was for Mori Kotaka to make such a choice.

"Mori-sama, you have a good son!" Oda Yoshinobu said with a sigh.

Following Mori Koron, Oda Yoshinobu saw Mori's corpse. At this time, a full day has passed since the time of Sen Kecheng's death, although it has not yet reached the height of summer, but because Sen Kecheng was killed by an iron cannon, from his eye sockets, it has begun to emit a stench.

"Alas, a generation of famous generals has passed away like this......" Oda Yoshinobu shook his head and sighed, but he didn't know what to say. War is always accompanied by death, and every samurai is ready to die in battle when he goes out into battle. Well...... Of course, Yoshinobu Oda had never prepared for this.

After thinking about it, Oda Yoshinobu turned to Mai and Senju and asked, "Have you learned how to preserve the body?" ”

"If it's just a few days, it shouldn't be too much of a problem." Wu Wen Yan said respectfully.

"Well, then let's take care of it for Mori-sama, and then bring it back to Mino for burial!" Oda Yoshinobu nodded and said, then looked at Mori Kolong and said, "Kolon, I don't know how to say comforting words, but the Chinese army will be handed over to you!" Don't let your father down! ”

"Please rest assured!"
