"Ah~~~!" After a long yawn, I almost fell off my horse.

"Be careful, lord!" Kusunoki Mitsunari hurriedly stepped forward to help me, and Shimakatsu Takeshi also pulled the horse's head in front.

"Oh......" I rubbed my eyes vigorously and pinched my thigh. It's okay, keep going! I bothered to say to the front. The horse began to march again.

A few days ago, after I received the news that Saito Ryuko was detaining Mamoru Ando, I opened an emergency passage to Mino. Although this incident may not necessarily affect me, it will definitely have an impact. In the early hours of this morning, the news finally came through the relay race: the lord of Bodhi Mountain Castle, Takenaka Hanbei Shigeji, attacked Inaba Mountain Castle with 16 horsemen! What I've been waiting for suddenly happened, but it didn't feel like anything! The only thing that can be done now is to wait and see how things develop. It's impossible for Oda Nobunaga to not have an intelligence network in Mino, but this is a civil strife in Mino, and because they didn't pay special attention to the Takenaka Hanbei, I guess it will take a day and a night to figure out the situation! I didn't expect them to be so capable that I was pulled out of the bed by Oda Nobunaga in the middle of the night! Although he knew that he was empty and happy, he still had to come. No way, who told me to still carry someone's bowl!

"Lord Stars, please dismount here!" Before I knew it, I had arrived in front of the castle tower. "The squire stays here!" The guard said respectfully but firmly.

"Just wait here!" I turned back to them and walked into the familiar hallway. It seems that Oda Nobunaga really takes this matter seriously, and there are four times as many guards here as usual! Even though I've been here for an unknown number of times, the sentries still stared at me. I walked into the assessment room, and now there are less than a quarter of the usual people! "It doesn't seem too late!" I went to the back and sat down in the dark shadow, but I was a little strange why it was the "big guys" who came first today?

"Since they're all here, let's have a meeting!" I was thinking about it and Oda Nobunaga walked into the house. "I brought everyone here in the middle of the night because something big happened......

"Wouldn't it?!" I screamed in my heart. Turning his head to look around, he didn't even have Maeda Toshi's house! In this way, Oda Nobunaga did not forget to toss me, I really don't know whether to be proud or sad. "In that case, he's probably going to call me later, I don't know......" I moved into the darkness again.

“…… That's it! What do you think about this? At this time, Oda Nobunaga had already finished introducing the situation, and he was so excited that he glanced at everyone with his eyes.

"God bless my Oda family!" It was Shibata Katsuya who was the first to speak. "Saito Ryuxing was so mediocre that he lost his country; Takenaka Shigeji committed a crime and suddenly mutinied, thinking that at this moment the people in Inabayama Castle were already panicked and chaotic! Our army will take advantage of this attack, and Inabayama Castle will definitely be able to go down with one drum! The rest of the cats and dogs are not enough to see at all, and the country of Meinong is not in the palm of the lord's hands? ”

"I'm afraid it's not that simple, right?" Lin Tongsheng said suspiciously: "The half-guards of Takenaka are not idle! If he can take Inabayama Castle with only sixteen horsemen, how can he not have a backhand? ”

"I also think that attacking by force is not the best policy!" Niwa Nagahide also expressed a different opinion. "Mino is a waste in terms of Saito Ryuko, and the overall situation is all supported by the three of Minono. This time, Mamoru Ando was imprisoned by Ryuko Saito, which shows that the original contradictions between the two of them have begun to surface! Although Shigeharu Takenaka is a light horse knocker, in a sense, his behavior also represents the attitude of the three people of Mino, and even a large number of wealthy families in Mino! If we are overwhelmed by the army at this time, the three of Mino will definitely go all out to help Inabayama Castle, and even renew the relationship with Saito Ryukyo and get back on the same boat, then we will miss the opportunity! So...... My opinion is: It's better to send someone to contact Shigeharu Takenaka of Inabayama Castle! On the other hand, this is also a temptation for the three of Mino. ”

"My opinion is basically the same as that of Changxiu!" Oda Nobunaga made his attitude clear before the crowd who were still going to speak. "I decided to rebel against Takenaka Hanbei Shigeji! As long as he hands over Inabayama Castle to me, I'll give him half of Mino! His words caused a moment of silence.

"This ...... Seems like a bit too much, right? "The first to speak was Niwa Nagahide. Although his opinion was affirmed, he was also taken aback by the reward. Others are worried, too.

"Huh?" At this moment, I felt someone pull me from behind, and when I looked back, it was Ikeda Tsuneko. The Ikeda clan was a lineage minister of the Oda family, and Hengxing's mother was Oda Nobunaga's nurse, and she was also a favorite of Nobunaga. He just turned 16 years old, he just served last year, and now he is a general! In this room, only the two of us were below the rank of general, and only two of us were under the age of twenty. He was sitting behind me at the moment, in a darker light. "What?" I asked him in a low voice.

"Why don't you go?" He said in the same whisper. "It's a good job! It's not difficult, the credit is high, and the promotion is a certainty! ”

"If you want to go yourself, I'd better forget it!" I pouted disdainfully. "But...... Don't say that my brother didn't remind you, you can't do this! Whoever goes to the mud is ten out of ten thankless! ”

"How so?!" He asked me in amazement. "It's such a high price, and that half-guard in Takenaka is not in a hurry to come? If you put it on me, you'll be crazy! ”

"You're the only one who is crazy about Noh!" I smiled and said, "I'll be honest with you!" It is highly likely that that Takenaka half-guard will return Inabayama Castle to Saito Ryuko......"

"What?!" His eyes widened. "There will be such people? Tell you that if this happens, either he is sick or you are sick, or I am sick! He suddenly said excitedly: "Since you are so sure, do you dare to make a bet with me?" ”

"Whatever you want!" I don't care. I received the latest information this evening: the Takenaka half-guard just released Mamoru Ando, who was in prison, and did not send a letter to the wealthy people to ask for support, which is not an attempt to stick to it at all! First, there is history to testify, and second, there is intelligence to rely on, am I still afraid of him?

"Then I want your Nanban watch!" As he spoke, Ikeda put his hand into my arms.

"If you win, you will take it?" I pushed his hand away. "Bet what you're betting on?"

"It's not a matter of time yet!" He said it as a matter of course. "Then I'll take the famous knife that is handed down by the family!"

"I don't like knives! Guns! This sort of thing. ”

"All the good wines I have in my collection?"

"Forget it!" I replied disdainfully, "Your wine is far worse than mine!" ”

"And what do you want? Or ......," he smiled mysteriously as he approached me. "I gave you the prettiest maid in my house? She was a famous beauty when she was in Cheongju! I'm just fourteen years old, I haven't touched it yet, absolutely original......"

"Go! Let go! You're disgusting! I whispered.

"Man! What is there to hide? "He suddenly looked me up and down." You don't have a disease, do you? Sister-in-law Xianzhi, that maid named Ying, why didn't you come in? Isn't it...... Yes? Ha, ha, ha......"

"What's going on there?" Ikeda's gaffe attracted Oda Nobunaga's attention. "What's the big talk?"

"Back to my lord!" Ikeda stood up first. "Lord Zhuxing said that he would do his best for this matter!" He didn't hesitate to kick me into the well.

"Oh! Is it? Oda Nobunaga was intrigued. Then tell me what you think! ”

Bears in Winter: Ikeda was born in 1536 at the age of 28, but in my book I needed such a person to subtract him by a decade! He was chosen because he was in a suitable position in a young position, and another important reason was that there are few descriptions of his character and temperament in history, which is convenient for the author to shape! Also, I want to see what you think of the two attitudes of enthusiasm and calm objectivity, so please vote for today's options.
