Hawkers, the ultimatum issued by Yoshinobu Oda, according to common sense, has to be said to be a rather wrong decision. If it is a small wealthy family, then in the face of the powerful Oda family, it is very likely that they will be frightened by Oda Yoshinobu. But here in North Ise, the forty-eight wealthy families unite to fight against the attack from the Nagano family and the Kobe family in Nagano and Kobe in Central Ise almost every year, how could they be frightened by Oda Yoshinobu's words?

Instead of being frightened, they became angry, for no one had ever dared to humiliate them in such a way. Although the Oda family was very powerful, and Oda Yoshinobu was a well-known general, when they combined, it was also a powerful force that sat on nearly 80,000 koku in the two prefectures of Ise Province. If they were so frightened by Oda Yoshinobu that they surrendered immediately, then who else would look up to them in the future?

So on the day he received the ultimatum, under the leadership of Kazuya Kuwana, the head of the forty-eighth family quickly made the final decision, that is...... War!

Night, Nakono Castle.

"Lord, you see, the subordinates said that this will definitely be counterproductive, right?" Ning Ning looked at Oda Yoshinobu coquettishly and said, and at the same time moved his body so that Oda Yoshinobu's big hand could swim on him more easily.

"Hehe, wouldn't that be nice? With less than forty-eight families, wouldn't there be more territory that could be distributed? Moreover, my main purpose was achieved. Oda Yoshinobu smiled, and with his other hand pressed Chiyo Mochizuki's head all the way to the bottom. Then he asked again, "How is the training of the ninja army?" ”

Hearing this, Ning Ning couldn't help but glance at Oda Yoshinobu, "How can it be so fast, ninjas need to train for a long time." As he spoke, he suddenly smiled charmingly, "But if it's a female ninja, there are a few good seedlings that can already be eaten~"

"Ahem......" Hearing Ning Ning's words, Oda Yoshinobu suddenly coughed dryly twice, "What to eat, am I that kind of person?" Oda Yoshinobu said, quickly diverted the topic, took away the hand that was pressing on the head of Chiyo Mochizuki, and said with an apologetic face, "Chiyo girl, are you okay?" ”

"Please rest assured, these are all skills that must be cultivated, and they will not cause any dangerous consequences~" Saying that, Chiyo Mochizuki couldn't help but glance at Oda Yoshinobu shyly, "But the lord's is also too big......"

Ise Province, Tarumiyama Castle.

Kitada Gukyo is studying the situation in Shima Province, and since Daizuru took the entire Shima Country in one day, Kita-Ise was shocked, and Kitada Gukyo was also stunned. You must know that not long ago, the Kitada family was defeated by the Nine Ghosts Jialong. Although the Kitada family did not send a large army that time, neither did Oda Yoshinobu's side.

It's just that Kitada Gukyo is helpless that he studied for a long time, and he couldn't learn the strength of the Oda Army of Shima Country from it. In addition to knowing that the new lord of Shima Province was a woman named Ozuru and had a very close relationship with Oda Yoshinobu, he could only know that the troops of Shima Province could mobilize about 3 or 4,000 people at most.

However, this can't be blamed on the Kitada family's intelligence work not being done well, because Dazhu Tsuru fought such a battle when he took Shima Country. After defeating the fleet of the Nine Demons Yosataka at sea, they directly took over the entire Shima Kingdom, and it is impossible to know what their specific combat effectiveness is.

"Your Highness, Ise Jingu Inner Palace Fujimoto priest asks to see you." A young man came over and reported.

"Taio Fujimoto? What did he come to do? Kitada Gukyo frowned and thought to himself, he had a very bad premonition.

After a while, Taifu Fujimoto came, "Your Highness Kitada, you haven't thanked you in person for helping the Inner Palace attack the Nine Ghost Families of the Rebel Thieves before~"

"Haha, the Fujimoto priest is polite, and the nine ghosts Jialong don't know what to do, and he actually invades the territory of the gods. Even if the family doesn't crusade against him, there will naturally be people who crusade against him. Kitada Gujiao said with a chuckle.

Hearing this, Taifu Fujimoto sneered, obviously knowing the meaning of blame in Kitada's words. After all, he first asked the Kitada family for help, but after seeing that the Kitada family had failed, he ran to Oda Yoshinobu for help in a blink of an eye. In this case, it will be quite annoying. After all, isn't this showing that the Kitada family is not even as good as Oda Yoshinobu?

However, although he was a little embarrassed, Taifu Fujimoto said quickly, "Lord Kitada, in addition to wanting to thank you for your help in person, there is one more thing here. ”

"Oh?"

"That's right, as you know, the Oda family has just taken over the Shima Kingdom, so they want Ise Jingu to be an intermediary...... "Fujimoto Taio said cautiously.

It's just that before he finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by Kitada Gujiao, "Priest Fujimoto, is the hand of Ise Jingu stretched too long?" Kitada Gujiao said coldly.

"This ...... This ......"

"Alright, if nothing else, please go back. Since Oda Yoshinobu is such a high-profile Yan Ming wants to attack Ise, it is impossible to exclude the territory of his own family, right? Kitada Gukyo sneered, and then waved his hand to signal that Taifu Fujimoto could leave.

"Humph! Yoshinobu Oda thinks too well, right? Make peace with the main family first, and then take the North Ise ......" Kitada Gujiao muttered to himself coldly after Taio Fujimoto left.

And at this moment, the little surname hurried over again, "Your Highness, the priest Kameda of the outer palace of Ise Jingu is here." ”

"Is there an end?! Missing! Get out of here! When Kitada Gujiao heard this, he immediately scolded unhappily. He felt as if he was being treated as an idiot by Oda Yoshinobu, otherwise he would not have sent two priests in a row to persuade him. It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly stopped the little surname who was about to leave and said loudly, "Wait! Bring him here! ”

Well, Kitada Gukyo suddenly remembered that Taio Kameda had taken refuge in the Imagawa family before the battle between the barrels and narrows. Because a lot of Ise Jingu's business in Ise Province is on the Kitada family's side, so I don't pay much attention to the things on the Owari side, but Kitada Gukyo still understands this matter.

And more importantly, since Tsubashi Sasama, I don't know if it was to retaliate for the betrayal of Kameda Taifu or something else, in short, the Oda family handed over all the trade with Ise Jingu to the Inner Palace Emperor Daijingu to deal with. And all the merchants sent by the outer palace ignored them.

Although the trade with the outer palace was concentrated on land, the Oda family's actions undoubtedly gave a very clear signal to Kameda Taio. At the same time, Kitada Gujiao guessed the purpose of the other party's coming.

Sure enough, Kameda Taifu came with only one purpose, hoping that the Kitada family would send troops to help Kita Ise resist Oda Yoshinobu's attack.

"Lord Kitada, as long as you are willing to send troops, I will definitely help you lobby with Nagano, Seki, and Kobe, so that they will also be on your side." Kameda said in a deep voice.

"Priest Kameda, this matter is very troublesome, and my family needs to think about it. You can go first and lobby the three Nagano houses. If they agree, the family will definitely send troops! Hearing this, Kitada Gujiao said in a deep voice.

Looking at the back of Taifu Kameda leaving, Kitada Gukyo sneered in his heart, "It seems that it was really the right thing to conceal in the first place." Subsequently, he exchanged the retainer Toriya Mitsuei and asked him to mobilize immediately. As soon as Oda Yoshinobu sent troops to Ise, he attacked Shima Province.

And the three Nagano families also did not agree to Kameda's lobbying. However, they did not say anything to death, but only asked Kameda Taifu to convince the patriarch of the 48 families of Northern Ise first. After all, unlike Kitada Gukyo, each of the three Nagano families has invaded Kita-Ise, and there are many wealthy clans who have enmity with them.

However, after Kameda Taio left, the governor of the Nagano family, Nagano Guto, and the Kobe Gumori of the Kobe family sent someone to contact the governor of the Guan family, Seki Morinobu.

"Hehe, these two guys know how to pick time." Guan Shengxin sneered and threw the letter in his hand to his son Guan Yizheng.

"Father, isn't the family united with the Nagano and Kobe families?" When Guan Yizheng heard this, he asked in surprise.

Now everyone knows that the Oda family wants to attack Ise, and the fact that they took Shima Province in one day also makes everyone fearful. So in the hearts of many wealthy families, although Oda Yoshinobu has not yet sent troops, they already have fear. In this case, it is clear that the best outcome is the union.

"Joint? Even if he repels Oda Yoshinobu, he will not be annexed by the Kitada family?! Guan Shengxin said coldly. Kitada Gukyo thought that what he was doing was very secretive, but I still accidentally discovered that the current Kobe family's governor Kobe Gumori and Nagano family's family governor Nagano Gudo are both Kitada Gukyo's sons in the past. ”

"What?!" Guan Yizheng was shocked when he heard this, but if he thought about it carefully, it seemed that since Kobe Gumori and Nagano Guto inherited the family governor, the two families really didn't seem to have any war.

"Well, don't think about it so much." Guan Shengxin patted Guan Yizheng and said helplessly, "Whether it is the Kita family or the Oda family, it is not something that the family can fight against now." So, let's wait for the results. ”

And in this case, the time limit for Oda Yoshinobu's ultimatum has arrived.

"Ladies and gentlemen! It's time for war! Oda Yoshinobu stood on the high platform, glanced at the huge troops below, and shouted loudly, "Power, money, territory, women, whatever you want, you can get it on the battlefield!" Now, let's go! ”

"Whoa, whoa!" Oda Jun shouted loudly.

On September 11, Oda Yoshinobu led 10,000 troops out of Nakono Castle and headed straight for Kuwana Castle in Kitaise. (To be continued.) )
