The Mori and Uesugi families began to retreat, and at the same time, the Mori navy was defeated, and the Oda army began to invade Kyushu. www.biquge.info Even in the more affluent towns such as Kyoto, Kaimachi, Azuchi, and Osaka, wealthy merchants have begun to hold large-scale celebrations.

In the past, this was unimaginable, because since the Onin Rebellion started the hundred years of war, no matter who won or lost, the commoners and merchants of were just watching from the sidelines, but now, they are celebrating so wildly because of the victory of the Oda family.

Anyone who saw the ninjas, ministers, or other people of insight in the Oda domain would be shocked by this, especially the ninjas who were left here by hostile forces, and their hearts were full of fear. Even ninjas understand the meaning of what the people want.

"Hehe, with the world's No. 1 retainers, economy, population, agriculture, and resources, now, there is the heart of the people who have obtained the most difficult to get, and who can win the Oda family today?" I don't know how to look at the eager atmosphere around me, and I can't help but chuckle.

"The hearts of the people? It's just a fragile thing. He shook his head and said that he had seen too much of the so-called people's hearts and loyalty.

"Hehe~ That's what I said." I don't know what to say, I laughed.

"By the way, looking at you like this, it doesn't seem that you really let it go~ Do you have any plans?" I didn't know and suddenly asked.

"Haha~ What can you plan! In today's situation, as long as Oda Nobunaga himself does not make mistakes, who in the world can compete with them? I don't know what to say, I laughed. As he spoke, he suddenly looked at the unknown Dao curiously, "What about you?" When are you ready to get your hands on it? ”

"Heh, do you just want me to die?" I didn't know what to say, shook my head and smiled, "Come to think of it, our plans are almost the same~"

"Haha! So, might we join forces against the Oda family? In the past, I couldn't even think about it~" I don't know how to laugh again.

"It depends on whether you have the life to live to that time~" I don't know if I don't know, and he said helplessly, he feels that he and the man in front of him still don't get along.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely live until that time, unless Oda Nobunaga doesn't give me that chance!" I don't know how to laugh.

At this time of national jubilation, Oda Nobunaga led an army of 30,000 and began to march towards Harima. At the same time, he sent an order to Niwa Nagahide and Akechi Mitsuhide, asking them to continue the attack on Inaba Province.

Ishiyama Honganji Castle.

"My lord! His subordinates were ashamed that they had not been able to capture Ishiyama Honganji until now. Sakuma Nobumori said with a look of shame in front of Oda Nobunaga.

Strictly speaking, Nobumori Sakuma could find hundreds of reasons to explain things here, but ...... When the results of various victories came, only his side did not move. Even if Sakuma Nobumori has many reasons for this situation, he can't say it.

"It's nothing, after all, Ishiyama Honganji is a rare fortified city in the world, although it is not as good as Azuchi and Osaka, but compared to Odawara, I am afraid it will not be too different." Oda Nobunaga said indifferently.

"Thank you, my lord! The subordinates will definitely take the Ishiyama Honganji Temple as soon as possible! Sakuma Nobumori said respectfully.

Subsequently, Sakuma Nobumori reported on the current situation. After such a long time, it is naturally impossible for Sakuma Nobumori to just lead the army to surround it and do nothing. If that were the case, Oda Nobunaga would have withdrawn him a long time ago and made him another general.

At this time, the fortifications outside Ishiyama Honganji Castle, such as the moat, had already been destroyed and buried by Sakuma Nobumori. At the same time, Sakuma Nobumori also completely cut off the connection between Ishiyama Honganji and the outside world, so that Honganji could not get any food and water supplies.

Of course, as a port city, although Sakuma Nobumori did not have a navy, he was still able to get some ships to block the sea. Although due to the navy under Oda Yoshinobu and Oda Nobunaga's orders, even if it was not blocked, Ishiyama Honganji would not be able to get any supplies by sea.

"However, according to the reaction in the city, it is speculated that the food and water in the city can support at least half a year." Sakuma Nobumori said with some embarrassment.

"It's okay~" Oda Nobunaga waved his hand and said, "As long as the Maori family and the Uesugi family are defeated, will Honganji still dare to continue to be the enemy of the family like that bald donkey?" Oda Yoshinobu looked at the castle in the distance and sneered, "Just surround them like this, there is no need to waste troops on them." ”

If the casualties were not taken into account, it may be that Sakuma Nobumori would have captured Ishiyama Honganji Castle by this time, but unfortunately, neither he nor Oda Nobunaga wanted to waste too many troops here. After all, with the defense of this city, if it is really attacked, the casualties that may be caused will be at least 10,000. Although even if the loss of tens of thousands of Oda Nobunaga is not unbearable, if it can, why lose so many people?

After all, population is one of the real reasons for being strong. Otherwise, why is so powerful? In addition to political and other factors, the biggest reason is because of the large number of people in. More people means productivity.

At the same time that Oda Nobunaga arrived in Settsu, Oda Yoshinobu also sent 20,000 troops, together with Matsudaira Ieyasu's 10,000 men, a total of 30,000 troops, and began to march towards Tsuki. Originally, Oda Yoshinobu only asked Matsudaira Ieyasu to send 5,000 troops, but Matsudaira Ieyasu insisted on bringing 10,000 people, obviously, Matsudaira Ieyasu was very dissatisfied with Mikatahara's own performance. In this regard, Oda Yoshinobu, you did not persuade too much.

Suruga, Sunpu Castle. When Oda Nobutada arrived here, he immediately sent Murai Sadakatsu to Odawara Castle to persuade the Hojo family to surrender. Just as Oda Nobunaga and others speculated, Oda Nobuna's performance made Oda Nobutada's pressure very high.

Speaking of which, Oda Nobuna is just a woman, no matter how eye-catching her performance is, she can't become the young master of the Oda family, but the problem is that until now, Oda Nobunaga has still not appointed Oda Nobutada as the young master. Once wise Mitsuhide and others also persuaded him, but after Oda Nobunaga directly refused, he didn't mention it anymore.

Moreover, Otsuru and Chiyoyo Mochizuki under the command of Oda Yoshinobu have started their own families and become the family governors, although it is unlikely, but what if? Everyone in the world knows that the relationship between Oda Nobunaga and Oda Yoshinobu is quite close, not to mention Oda Nobutada.

In case Oda Yoshinobu persuaded Oda Nobunaga to make Oda Nobuna the head of the family, and his own military achievements were far inferior to Oda Shinna, in that case, Oda Nobutada did not know if his father would refuse Oda Yoshinobu's proposal. He knew very well that his father had always been based on ability.
