Chapter 656: The End of the Asakura Family (2)

One by the valley city, the assessment room. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Asakura Yoshikage sat in the first place with a defeated face, and the others were lined up on both sides below. Last night, after receiving the news that Kiya Pass Castle had been breached, Asakura Yoshikei immediately led his army to withdraw to Ichichengya Castle. It's just that the withdrawal is withdrawn, so what should we do next?

Field? Apparently impossible. If nothing else, Oda Yoshinobu's previous martial arts in Kanesaki Shura were enough to dispel this thought. Can defend the city...... The natural danger of Kiya Pass was breached, and the entire Echizen was exposed to the Oda family's troops, and even if the Asakura family defended Ichijo Valley Castle, it would not be able to stop the Oda family's attack on Echizen.

It can be said that at this time, Asakura Yoshijing no longer had half an idea, but he looked around at the important ministers, and all the retainers who were swept by his eyes all lowered their heads.

If it were in normal times, Asakura Yoshikei would definitely be furious. Only this time, he just opened his mouth, and finally all his words turned into a sigh, and then he got up and left directly. He didn't know what to say, and even his mind was blank now, because until now he didn't understand why the dignified Asakura family would be defeated by the Oda family so easily.

Seeing this, Chaocang Jingjing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Soon after, after leaving Ichijo Valley Castle with the others, Asakura Keigami secretly contacted Mae-Ha Yoshitsugu, Tomita Nagashige and others.

Night.

Asakura Yoshikage did not rest, but stood in the courtyard of the mansion watching the moonlight and drinking wine. Speaking of which, Asakura Yoshikei rarely drinks alone, and he prefers to be a man of culture, and he prefers tea to alcohol. It's just that today, in just half an hour, he has already drunk three pots. Because he really didn't know what to do other than begging to get drunk.

I don't know what time it was, but suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps, accompanied by the screams and screams of the little surname. Asakura Yoshikage, who was already so drunk that he couldn't open his eyes, turned his head inexplicably and shouted dissatisfiedly, "What are you doing?" ~Give me a quiet moment! Boom......"

It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice full of sarcasm, "Hehe, the Oda family is about to come to the city, and the family governor is actually borrowing wine to kill your sorrows?" This really chills the subordinates......"

With the words, a group of people appeared in front of Asakura Yoshikage, and in an instant, Asakura Yoshikage woke up, looked at each other in shock and exclaimed, "Jingjing?!" Jiji?! What do you want to do?! "The person who came was none other than Asakura Jingjing, and each of them brought three flag-book samurai, each armed with a sword, and it was obvious that the person who came was not good.

"What for?!" Hearing this, Asakura Jingjing immediately burst out laughing, as if he had heard some funny joke. After a long while, he looked at Asakura Yoshikage with a cold face and said, "Asakura Yoshikage, now the Asakura family has fallen into such a field because you insist on fighting against the Oda family. So, in order to protect the Asakura family, I can only wronged you......"

After speaking, Asakura Jingjing didn't give Asakura Yoshikyo a chance to speak at all, and directly let his flag book arrest him.

"Bastard! Asakura Jingjing, if you do this, you will definitely go to hell! Asakura Yoshikyo kept cursing, but Asakura Jingjing didn't bother to pay attention to this. Because from today on, Asakura Yoshikyo is no longer the governor of the Asakura family.

On the other hand, the Oda army, which had taken Koya Pass Castle, did not stop, and after agreeing to Oda Yoshinobu's proposal, Oda Nobunaga scattered the 20,000 Asakura troops who had surrendered into his own army, and marched towards Ichijo Valley Castle again. Oda Nobunaga didn't plan to take Echizen slowly, because he didn't have that much time and didn't bother to continue playing games with Asakura Yoshikage. And in his opinion, only by destroying the Asakura family like a thunderbolt can he solve his resentment for many years.

Two days later, the Oda army arrived at Ichijo Valley Castle, but before the offensive could be launched, Oda Nobunaga was surprised to find that the opposite side had surrendered to Kaejo. However, when Asakura Jingjing and others pressed Asakura Yoshikage, who was tied into zongzi, out of the city gate, the truth was revealed.

"It is a shame for a samurai to have such a retainer to exist!" Keiji Maeda muttered quietly. Obviously, in the eyes of Keiji Maeda, he was quite disdainful of the actions of Asakura Keigami and others, after all, the spirit of the samurai is loyalty and fearlessness. And not only Maeda Keiji, but also Shiraki Yukihisa and others are quite contemptuous of the actions of Asakura Jingjing and others.

"Hehe, but no matter what, it's a good thing to take Echizen without blood." Yoshinobu Oda chuckled. Regarding the actions of Asakura Jingjing and others, Oda Yoshinobu didn't have much feeling. While loyalty was indeed a standard that a samurai should live by, Oda Yoshinobu remembered a saying, and that was that good birds choose trees to perch on. And obviously, in the eyes of Oda Yoshinobu, the Oda family is the legendary plane tree.

"You have worked hard, I have already written down the credit, and anyone who abandons the darkness and turns to the light will not be treated badly by my family." Oda Nobunaga nodded to Asakura Keigami and the others, and let them go down to rest.

In this regard, Asakura Jingjing and the others naturally won't and don't dare to say anything, they themselves know that their actions will definitely be despised, but there is no way, they don't want to follow the Asakura family into history together.

After Asakura Keikag and the others left, Oda Nobunaga turned his head to look at Asakura Yoshikage. It was the first time they had met, but apparently, neither of them expected it to be such a situation. After a long while, Oda Nobunaga asked lightly, "Yoshijinggong, I don't know if you thought about today's fate when you refused the call of your family?" ”

Asakura Yoshikage looked at Oda Nobunaga with his head held high, and only after half a ring did he speak, "I wonder if Nobunaga will be able to unravel these things?" Although I failed, the Asakura family is a famous nobleman, and even if I die, I hope to have a decent way to die. ”

Hearing this, Oda Nobunaga raised his eyebrows, obviously not expecting Asakura Yoshikyo to say such a thing. You must know that in the information he obtained, Asakura Yoshikei can basically be summed up as weak and incompetent. However, Oda Nobunaga did not refuse Asakura Yoshikage, because Asakura Yoshikage could still have such an attitude at such a time, and he had already won Oda Nobunaga's respect.

"Excellent! Yijing Gong is worthy of being the descendant of the famous Asakura clan, as you wish, you are allowed to cut your stomach! Oda Nobunaga said in a deep voice, and asked the little surname to take Asakura Yoshikei down to bathe and change clothes. Soon after, Asakura Yoshikage committed suicide at the age of 35 under the watchful eyes of the Oda family's governor and many retainers.
