Under the continuous rapid march, Oda Yoshinobu soon entered Mikawa, "My lord, in front of you are the newly built Marone and Washetsu Tsu T Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" Li Huamei reminded with words.

"Well, just over there."

"Who?!" When Oda Yoshinobu and others came to Marune, because they didn't do anything to hide, they were immediately discovered by Ashigaru, who was guarding the door.

"I'm Yoshinobu Oda, who is the current Joshiro here?" Yoshinobu Oda asked with a chuckle.

"Ahh It turned out to be Oda-sama! Here Joshiro is Sakuma-sama! The ashigaru seemed to have seen Oda Yoshinobu and replied quickly.

"Well, you go and report it, and say that I have something to find him." Oda Yoshinobu nodded and commanded casually.

"Yes!"

After a while, Sakuma Morishige hurried over. "Oda-sama, but what new orders does the lord have?" Sakuma asked before he could get to Oda Yoshinobu's side.

"Well, I came to carry out the harassment plan on the orders of the lord, so I would like to ask Sakuma-sama for a favor." Oda Yoshinobu said respectfully. "I hope that Lord Sakuma can send troops to harass Otaka Castle in batches, and I will continue to make noise outside the castle, so that the defenders inside Dakaka Castle will think that my family is going to storm Otaka Castle."

"Huh? Pretend to attack? Sakuma asked with a frown, not seeming to understand the meaning of this.

"Well, but if the enemy has a large number of troops defending the city or even going out of the city to pursue, then you will retreat. If not, attack the city until the enemy has a large number of troops and immediately retreat. Yoshinobu Oda explained. Well, this is the so-called tired soldier's strategy, although he does not understand the art of war, but this kind of strategy is all too common, and the principle is very simple.

Sakuma Morishige said that he was also a samurai who had been on the battlefield for half his life, and although he had not read any military books such as Sun Tzu's Art of War, he quickly understood the main point under Oda Yoshinobu's explanation.

"Good way! It's you, Lord Oda! I'll do it right away! Sakuma said excitedly.

Dataka Castle is the strongest fortress of the Imagawa family in Mikawa today, and at the same time, there are countless troops stationed in the city, otherwise Oda Nobunaga would not only besiege and not fight. The purpose of this is to consume the grain stored in Dagao City, after all, everything in Dagao City is transported from other places, and if it goes on like this, the city will be destroyed sooner or later. And Oda Yoshinobu's current approach will obviously speed up the consumption in Dataka Castle.

However, Oda Yoshinobu naturally couldn't come here just for this matter, "Sakuma-sama, I wonder if you have a banner of the Matsudaira family here?" ”

"Huh? Yes, yes, when I was building the fort in the previous section, I fought a few battles with the defenders of Da Gao Castle, but I picked up some. Sakuma asked suspiciously, but he still ordered someone to get it.

"Hehe, since you want to harass the enemy army, you naturally can't reveal your identity too much." Oda Yoshinobu chuckled, then picked up two flags and handed them to Keiji Maeda and Shimasaku.

After explaining again, Oda Yoshinobu took people and left directly. Subsequently, Sakuma Moritshige immediately divided the troops into four teams, each with more than 100 people, and prepared to harass them with a screw trumpet and drums.

Leaving aside the various tragic situations in which Odakajo has been in this scheme since then, on the other hand, after Oda Yoshinobu left Marune, he immediately went straight to Ueno Castle according to the original plan.

An hour later, "My lord, there is Ueno Castle ahead, and the lord of the castle is Sakai Tadashi, and it is said that since the time of Matsudaira Hirotada, he has been at odds with the Matsudaira family. Li Huamei pointed to a city in front of her and said.

"Very good, you guys wait here, Keiji, left near, you carry the banner of the Matsudaira family on your back and follow me." Oda Yoshinobu said in a low voice.

"Yes!"

In the arrow tower above the gate of Ueno Castle, the two guards were chatting boringly, they were not too vigilant to observe the surroundings, because this is the hinterland of Mikawa, and they have also heard the news of Imagawa's Kamiraku, in their hearts, how can any enemy army dare to attack Mikawa at this time? Not to mention calling here.

At this moment, a sudden sound of footsteps came, which immediately startled them, and they quickly looked up, only to find that it was a samurai with two people who looked like banners walking quickly. Officially Yoshinobu Oda and Keiji Maeda, Shimasashi near.

"Who?!" The two ashigaru shouted, their hands already grasping the bell beside them, and as long as they shook it, the entire people of Ueno Castle would be awakened. In that case, Oda Yoshinobu's plan would naturally go bankrupt.

"On the orders of Lord Motoshin, I have an urgent matter to convey to Sakai-sama! Don't open the door yet! Oda Yoshinobu shouted.

"This ...... Be! When the two ashigari heard this, they immediately answered, and immediately prepared to open the city gates.

"Hmph, people in this era are simply fools......" Seeing this, Oda Yoshinobu sneered in his heart, and at the same time the hand hidden behind his back quietly gestured to Keiji Maeda.

It's just that just when the city gate just creaked open, a loud shout suddenly came, "Who told you to open the city gate?!" As he spoke, the gate that was about to be opened suddenly stopped.

"Discovered?!" Oda Yoshinobu was immediately anxious. But he couldn't storm it, because he wasn't here to attack the city. Even if with his strength, he can open this door now, but you must know that at this time, all parts of the Imagawa family are mobilized, and God knows how many ashigaru existences are inside.

And take 10,000 steps back and say that he is here to harass, but once he startles the snake, what is the use of taking this city? The security in other places will definitely be strengthened, and when the time comes, he will be able to do nothing but return to Owari with his men in disgrace.

Just thinking about it, a young man appeared on the arrow tower, looking like him, but he was about 12 years old, but he looked quite heroic. In a word, that is, the appearance is extraordinary, and there will definitely be something to be done in the future.

"You're from the Matsudaira family?" The young man stood on the arrow tower and asked lightly.

"Tsk, the little imp who owes the fight." Oda Yoshinobu thought unhappily, but replied quickly, "I am Torii Mototada, a retainer of the Matsudaira family, and I have an important matter to ask to see Sakai-sama!" ”

"Oh? What's the matter? The young man asked curiously.

"Bastard! How can such a big thing be told to you a little doll?! Hurry up and open the door! Delayed the big thing! Can you afford it?! Oda Yoshinobu shouted sharply. In his mind, a little ghost head, isn't it over if he is scared?

"This ......" the young man's expression was a little flustered when he heard this, but he quickly recovered, "Hmph! Don't dare to say anything, are you a spy?! The boy snorted coldly.

"Nima, what a little devil is this!" Oda Yoshishi thought angrily in his confidence, but he said, "What nonsense! Whose kid are you?! Give me my name! When I go back and report to the Lord, I will see how you can be cured." ”

Originally, Oda Yoshinobu thought that it was so frightening, this little ghost was not so frightened that he immediately opened the door, who knew that when he heard Oda Yoshinobu's words, the little ghost was angry.

"Phew! Could it be that I'm afraid of you, sir?! Tell you! The master is Kamemaru, the eldest son of the Kamihara family! Now it's Sakai-sama's small surname! Go back and tell that kid Yuanxin! Don't think that tying up His Royal Highness Imagawa, the wealthy family of Mikawa will listen to him! Kamemaru roared, clearly completely enraged by Oda Yoshinobu's words.

"Good! You kid has a kind! Seeing this, Oda Yoshinobu could only leave a cruel word and take people away.

"Phew! What the hell?! Seeing Oda Yoshinobu and the others leaving, Kamemaru spat and scolded. Then he turned to the two guards and shouted, "Listen to me!" If the Matsudaira family comes again, they won't be allowed to open the door! ”

"Yes!"

With that, Kamemaru hurried to Sakai Tadashi's mansion.

"It's Kamemaru? What's the matter? Sakai Tadashi had already fallen asleep at this time, but when he saw that it was Kamemaru who woke him up, he didn't scold, but his tone was obviously not much better.

"My lord, just now a man from the Matsudaira family who claimed to be Torii Mototada came and said that he was looking for you for something important." Kamemaru said respectfully, and then explained his conversation with him. However, it is naturally impossible to say the original thing.

"Humph! The people of the Matsudaira family are still so annoying! Sakai Tadashi said unhappily. Since the time of Matsudaira Hirotada, Sakai Tadashi has been very bad with the Matsudaira family, let alone a few battles. Although he had to work with the Matsudaira family because of the Imagawa family, it was obviously impossible for him to obey the orders of that little imp of Matsudaira Motonobu.

"Kamemaru, you're doing a great job! Don't worry, as long as the family does their duty and makes a contribution when the Imagawa family goes to Luo in the future, His Royal Highness Imagawa will not pay attention to such a trivial matter. Sakai Tadashi said lightly.

"Yes!" Hearing this, Kamemaru immediately relieved himself. Anyway, he's just a 12-year-old kid, and he's still a little worried about offending the retainers of the Matsudaira family.

It was just at this time that a ashigaru hurriedly ran in, "My lord! Oh no, there's a fire in the castle town! ”

"What?!" Sakai Tadashi and Kamemaru shouted in shock at the same time.

"Quick! Check it out! Sakai Tadashi shouted anxiously, if there is really something messing up in the castle town, then it will definitely not be able to mobilize too many troops, how will he show himself in front of Imagawa Yoshimoto at that time?

Not to mention that Sakai Tadashi was gathering people over there, in the castle town of Ueno Castle, Oda Yoshinobu, who was on fire at this time, unceremoniously spread his anger in the castle town not far away. Anyway, for him, setting fire to the castle town was also planned.

By the time Sakai Tadashi and others arrived, the castle town of Ueno Castle had already fallen into a sea of fire. "Bastard! Bastard! Who the hell did it?! Tadashi Sakai shouted angrily. This castle town, but the town he has been running for a long time, but now, it has been burned clean in such a fire.

"Your Excellency!" A shout came, and Sakai Tadashi saw Kamemaru trotting all the way over, "My lord! I inquired about the people who had escaped, and according to their descriptions, it was done by a group of men dressed in black. Several of them carried the flags of the Matsudaira family on their backs. ”

"What?!" Sakai Tadashi was stunned when he heard this.

"My lord! You can't just let the Matsudaira family go! Kamemaru said indignantly.

"Hmm...... Got it, let's go back......" Sakai Tadashi said lightly.

"Your Excellency?!" Kamemaru looked at Sakai Tadashi in shock, obviously not understanding how his attitude had changed so much all of a sudden.

"Go back, I'll take care of this." Sakai Tadashi waved his hand and said, and he turned around and walked back.

This scene was all seen by Oda Yoshinobu who was hiding in the dark, "Well, it seems that there is such a stubble...... " Oda Yoshinobu thought secretly, his eyes flashing with a dangerous luster.

The next day, Okazaki Castle.

Matsudaira Motonobu sat in front of the bookcase and was constantly dealing with various official duties, and since Imagawa Yoshimoto announced Kamiraku, he has been busy almost every day until the evening.

"Tadaji, how is the mobilization in various places?" Matsudaira Motoshin asked without raising his head.

"It'll be done in another 1 or 2 days." Tadaji Sakai replied respectfully. As the first person to follow Matsudaira Motonobu's side, Sakai Tadaji had become the first retainer of the Matsudaira family at this time.

"Well, let the notice go down and let everyone get ready for battle as soon as possible. This time, His Highness gave the position of the vanguard to the Jing family, which is very disadvantageous to the family. Matsudaira Motonobu said in a low voice.

Originally, he always felt that the pioneer of Kamiraku must be his Matsudaira family, after all, Mikawa is the closest to Owari. But he never thought that in the end, the pioneer turned out to be Jing Yi Naosheng, the governor of the Jing Yi family, which was not a good sign in his eyes.

"Yes!"

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the room, it was Hattori Hanzo, the ninja leader of the Matsudaira family. "My lord, last night, many castle towns were burned down by unknown people, and even a small castle was captured."

"What?! What's going on?! Matsudaira Motonobu stood up in shock and asked.

"Lord Hui, according to the inquiries of his subordinates, it is said that the people in the area where the attack was carried out saw the banner of their own family. And those places that were attacked were all families who were still hostile to their own family. Hattori Hanzo whispered.

"What?!" Matsudaira Motonobu was stunned, and he instantly reacted to the result of this matter if it reached the ears of Imagawa Yoshimoto.

"Bastard! This must be a false accusation! Tadaji Sakai said angrily.

"No, this matter must be dealt with immediately, Tadaji, you immediately visit all the Hao clans who have been attacked, and make your family's position clear. Hanzo, you secretly follow the protection, and by the way, continue to investigate this matter, and you must investigate the truth! Matsudaira Motonobu reacted and immediately ordered.

"Yes!"

After everyone left, Matsudaira Motonobu suddenly swept all the things on the bookcase to the ground, "Oda family! Very good! Matsudaira Motonobu muttered angrily, how could he not guess who the murderer was? Is there anyone else but the Oda family now? But he believed that after Kawa Yoshimoto learned about this incident, even if those families knew, they would not say that the Oda family did it. Because, they have always been very hostile to the Matsudaira family. If you don't use this to suppress yourself, that's weird.

And at this time, somewhere in the dense forest of the Three Rivers.

"Lord, shall we go back now?" Keiji Maeda said with an unpleasant look.

"Or else? That's pretty much it, and it made the Matsudaira family sick anyway. Oda Yoshinobu said casually. (To be continued.) )
