Chapter 236: Get Three Rivers by the End of the Year?
In the assessment room of Okazaki Castle, the retainers of the Matsudaira family and Oda Yoshinobu sat on both sides, quietly waiting for the arrival of Matsudaira Ieyasu and Oda Yoshinobu. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Soon after, with a sound of footsteps, Yoshinobu Oda and Ieyasu Matsudaira slowly walked in.
Everyone bent down and bowed their heads to salute, but when they sat up, they suddenly found that Oda Yoshinobu, who had been sitting in the first place, was now Matsudaira Ieyasu. And Oda Yoshinobu sat in the original position of Matsudaira Ieyasu.
Seeing this, although everyone did not talk about it, their expressions were more or less different. After all, Oda Yoshinobu has always been the general who has always been in charge of pacification, and although many of his decisions have left everyone a little confused, there is no doubt that now that the situation in Mikawa has become clear, the credit must definitely be credited to Oda Yoshinobu.
And now, Matsudaira Ieyasu is sitting in the first place, which obviously means that he will become the general general. Well...... At this time, no matter how you think about it, there seems to be something wrong.
Matsudaira Ieyasu naturally saw everyone's reaction, to be honest, when Oda Yoshinobu said that he would be a general, although Matsudaira Ieyasu made up some fragments in his own brain, he didn't really take this matter seriously. After all, although those generals are temporarily unconvinced, they will naturally have a lot of time for them to obey in the future.
It's just that now it seems that ...... "Fortunately, my father had the foresight to give me the position of general general." Otherwise, if my father directly pacified Sanhe, I am afraid that more than half of the wealthy families in Sanhe, even if they submit to me on the surface, secretly they will not take me seriously. Matsudaira Ieyasu thought to himself, then coughed dryly twice and turned his head to look at Yoshinobu Oda.
"Father, please say a few words first...... Matsudaira Ieyasu said with a respectful face.
"Huh? Say a few words? Oda Yoshinobu looked at Matsudaira Ieyasu strangely, puzzled in his heart. He has obviously handed over the position of general to Matsudaira Ieyasu, why does Matsudaira Ieyasu still let himself say a few words now? However, after seeing the expressions of the people below, Oda Yoshinobu finally reacted.
"Ahem, everyone, ......" Oda Yoshinobu coughed dryly twice, looked at everyone and said slowly, "Now that the situation is clear, I decided to give up the position of general to Ieyasu, after all, Mikawa is his territory~"
Oda Yoshinobu said painlessly, and then shut up and pretended to be dead. Well, although this reason is a bit tricky, but it's better than nothing, right? And Oda Yoshinobu himself has no opinion, what else can others say?
The evaluation was soon carried out under the auspices of Matsudaira Ieyasu, but unlike when Oda Yoshinobu was a general, Matsudaira Ieyasu was obviously the master who was more adept at listening to the opinions of his retainers, which was originally very good, but when there were too many opinions and you couldn't make up your mind, it was a rather foolish thing. Hawkers, for this situation, there is also a proper noun called indecision.
As a result, the evaluation room quickly fell into a controversy, perhaps because Oda Yoshinobu was present, so no one directly quarreled, but obviously, this situation was very different from the quiet appearance when Oda Yoshinobu held the evaluation before. Belch...... Oda Yoshinobu came to Mikawa and it seems that he just opened an assessment, right? And that time, it was also straightforward to tell everyone what to do and then broke up.
However, Maeda Keiji and the others didn't argue with them about anything, in fact, Matsudaira Ieyasu and those retainers of the Matsudaira family directly ignored Maeda Keiji and others from beginning to end. No way, what can you get them to do? After all, it is a retainer of Oda Yoshinobu, and it is dangerous, and it is difficult to guarantee that Oda Yoshinobu will have an opinion. It's not difficult, maybe people will think that you look down on him. Then the best way is obviously to ignore it.
This kind of controversy lasted for two days, and no one could convince anyone. The side led by Tadaji Sakai felt that it was necessary to continue to gather a large army and sweep away the enemy's castles one by one. More radical samurai, such as Okubo Tadashi, believed that the biggest enemy today was only the four major temples and Kira Yoshiaki of Higashimikawa, and the four major temples stayed in the temple and did not come out at all, and Higashimikawa could not fight for a while. Since this is the case, it is better to directly divide the troops to attack, and first completely pacify the West Three Rivers.
Cheongju City.
"I see~ Haha, that kid is really beautiful!" Oda Nobunaga listened to Honda's report and said with a laugh.
It is said that since he got the news of the civil strife in the Rokkaku family, Oda Nobunaga was ready to contact the Asai family and ask him to help contain the Saito family, so that he could free up his hands to deal with Mikawa's troubles. But before he could think of the terms of negotiation with the Asai family, Oda Yoshinobu really opened the situation with only so many people, how could he be unhappy?
And what made him happiest was that Oda Yoshinobu finally showed the potential of a famous general in this battle, whether it was a night attack to break the army of 40,000, or then take advantage of the fact that the army was tired of the war to pacify half of the West Three Rivers in an instant. All of these made Oda Nobunaga very satisfied.
"Excellent! Go back and tell that kid Yixin that I'm waiting for him to come back in Cheongju for the New Year! Oda Nobunaga said with a smile, but these words made the three of Honda Tadakatsu instantly turn into bitter gourd faces. But they are not Oda Yoshinobu, and for Oda Nobunaga's words, they have no other choice but to bow their heads.
After speaking, Oda Nobunaga didn't wait for the three of Honda Tadakatsu to speak, and said again, "You can also bring back the iron artillery team, this kid, I kindly lent him the iron artillery team, and he sent me back without letting go of a single projectile?" How unreasonable! Oda Nobunaga said, and showed an unhappy expression, as if he was underestimated by Oda Yoshinobu.
In this regard, the three of Honda Tadashi naturally did not dare to say much, and they also wished that Oda Nobunaga would send more troops, after all, there was only a little more than a month before the end of the year.
After the three of Honda Tadakatsu took the order and left, Nohime slowly walked out of the back room, "Yoshiga-shiro, are you putting too much pressure on Yoshinobu like this?" After all, Mikawa's situation has just opened, but he is asked to calm down the year,......" Nohime whispered, slowly leaning into Oda Nobunaga's arms.
"Hey, you don't know that kid? Without a little pressure, God knows how long he'll be in Mikawa. Oda Nobunaga laughed strangely.
"You're reasonable~" Nohime gently pinched Oda Nobunaga, and by the way, he pressed the big hand that was making a mistake on himself.
"Where's Yoshina?" Oda Nobunaga asked suddenly.
"I'm reading with the Wonderful Pill." Nohime casually responded, twisting her body and trying to find a more comfortable way. Speaking of which, although Nohime has always wanted to give birth to Oda Nobunaga, because when he gave birth to Yoshi before, that appearance really frightened Oda Nobunaga, and the doctor repeatedly told Nohime that he was no longer suitable for childbirth. So up to now, Yoshino has given birth to Wonder Pill and Tea Whisk Maru, Naoko has also given birth to Katsu, and even Oda Nobunaga Shinna's concubine Murosaka has also given birth to Sanchi, but Nohime still only has one daughter, Yoshi.
But now, with Oda Nobunaga's relief and Yoshi's getting better and better, Nohime seems to be too. Although Oda Nobunaga has a lot of complaints about the fact that Nohime has always been raising Yoshi as a boy, but under Nohime's obscenity, he can only stop it in the end.
"Oh?" When Oda Nobunaga heard this, a strange light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he whispered while caressing Nohime's body, "It seems that we haven't been intimate for a long time~"
"What's the intimacy, it's all old husbands and wives, and I'm not ashamed!" Nohime snorted, but her body rubbed against Oda Nobunaga's arms again.
"Hehe, the old husband and wife should also be more affectionate~" Oda Nobunaga said with a wicked smile.
Okazaki Castle.
"Father, please give me some advice!" Matsudaira Ieyasu knelt in front of Oda Yoshinobu and said respectfully, as if he didn't care at all that his uncle was being held in his arms by Oda Yoshinobu in his disheveled clothes.
"I said Ieyasu, you kid is really getting more and more mixed up......" Oda Yoshinobu shook his head helplessly and said, he didn't know why recently, he always felt that Matsudaira Ieyasu in front of him was no longer the all-powerful 90+ god general in the game, and the last hero in history to create the shogunate. Instead...... Some of them are like a scumbag general, no matter what they can't solve, they will only come to ask themselves.
"Children are dull, children know mistakes!" Matsudaira Ieyasu fell to the ground and said what Oda Yoshinobu had heard him for an unknown number of times. But then again, if Oda Yoshinobu was Oda Nobunaga's character, seeing Matsudaira Ieyasu like this, he must have kicked it directly, followed by a set of combos that caused tons of damage to Matsudaira Ieyasu. And Oda Yoshinobu is obviously not that kind of person, for Matsudaira Ieyasu to look like this, Oda Yoshinobu is proud in addition to being proud.
"Alas~ I really can't do anything about you......" Oda Yoshinobu said with a sigh, and then was about to mention a few words, when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then I heard the big voice of the kid Honda Tadakatsu, "My lord, my subordinates are back!" ”
"Huh?" Oda Yoshinobu heard the sound and looked out the door strangely, and after a while, the three boys of Honda Tadakatsu walked in frizzy.
"Ahh The subordinates are rude, and I ask the lord and Matsudaira to forgive me. As soon as they entered the door and saw the scene in the house, the original excited appearance of the three Honda Tadakatsu was instantly replaced by a sad face. Obviously, Matsudaira Ieyasu was discussing something with Oda Yoshinobu, and at this time, they broke in so directly, even if they were not punished by Oda Yoshinobu, a scolding was obviously indispensable.
And Matsudaira Ieyasu obviously thought so, his mind was spinning, and when he was thinking about whether to intercede for the three young samurai, he heard Oda Yoshinobu's lazy voice, "Forget it, let's talk, what did the lord say?" Oda Yoshinobu asked casually as he ate the fruit that Usui brought to his mouth.
"Huh? Be! When the three of Honda Tadakatsu heard this, they hurriedly entered the house and bowed to the ground and said respectfully, "Your Highness said that you are very satisfied with the achievements made by the lord in Mikawa, and you also said...... He also said...... "Honda Tadashi was stumbling for a long time, and finally came up with such a sentence," and said that when the lord returns, he will definitely reward the lord well! ”
"That's it? Nothing else? Yoshinobu Oda asked casually.
"Yes! His Royal Highness also said that he would wait for the lord to come back in Cheongju to celebrate the New Year together. When Honda Tadakatsu heard Oda Yoshinobu's words, he immediately said quickly, and after finishing speaking, he didn't dare to raise his head with his head on the ground, and Sakakihara Yasumasa and Ueizumi Hidemoto were also the same. Obviously, in their opinion, after hearing the difficult request of a strongman like Oda Nobunaga, Oda Yoshinobu will definitely lose his temper.
On the other hand, Matsudaira Ieyasu heard the news and his eyes went black and he almost fainted. "Oh my God, more than 1 month to pacify the entire Three Rivers? The concubine can't do it! Matsudaira Ieyasu roared in his heart.
It's just that after hearing Oda Nobunaga's order, Oda Yoshinobu didn't get as angry or emotional as everyone thought, but laughed directly, "Haha~ I knew that my brother would definitely not let me go so easily~ Zhongsheng, my brother said that he would reward me well when I went back, and you made it up, right?" ”
"Uh...... Please atone for your sins! Hearing this, Honda Tadakatsu hurriedly said.
"My lord, loyalty is also unintentional, and with the merits of the lord in Sanhe, it is also a sure thing that His Royal Highness will reward the lord." Seeing this situation, Sakakihara Yasumasa and Hidemoto Kamiizumi on the side hurriedly came out to cover.
"Okay, you three stinky boys, you learned to cover each other at a young age?" Oda Yoshinobu scolded with a smile, and then waved his hand under the panicked gaze of the three of them and said, "Go down and rest, I guess before the New Year, you don't want to rest." ”
Hearing this, the three of Honda Tadashi didn't have time to think about it, so they left directly after answering directly. It's just that they left, and Matsudaira Ieyasu, who was still in the room, didn't want to leave directly. "Father, now that Your Highness has set a time, this is ...... How is this good!? Matsudaira Ieyasu said with a bitter face.
"Okay, isn't there still more than a month~ As for it?" Oda Yoshinobu said angrily, and then saw that Matsudaira Ieyasu still wanted to say something, and immediately waved his hand and gave an eviction order, "Okay, okay, you go back first, let me think about it." ”
Hearing this, Matsudaira Ieyasu suddenly didn't dare to say much, and retreated respectfully, not taking two steps, but heard another tempting moan coming from Oda Yoshinobu's room. Suddenly, Matsudaira Ieyasu's face became even more miserable, but he didn't dare to bother anymore, so he had no choice but to leave the mansion dejectedly, ready to go out and relax.
"Lord!"
When Matsudaira Ieyasu had just walked out of the mansion, he saw Tadaji Sakai walking towards him.
"Let's go, come with me for a drink or two." Matsudaira Ieyasu said, and without saying anything, he pulled Sakai Tadaji out.
"My lord?" Sakai Tadaji looked at Matsudaira Ieyasu with a very gloomy expression suspiciously, and he didn't know why, he suddenly felt that the lord in front of him was so strange.
