Chapter 158: Negotiation
In the assessment room of Okazaki Castle, all the retainers looked at Oda Yoshinobu and the woman beside him in amazement, Sakai Tadashi and the others were frightened, while Matsudaira Motoyasu and the others were puzzled. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This woman is naturally Sena. Although Oda Yoshinobu only planned to rescue Sena at first, so that Matsudaira Motoyasu would not have all worries, after hearing Sena's previous speculation, he immediately changed his mind. Because Sena is right, if this matter is used to threaten the Matsudaira family, it will obviously be more effective.
"Who said he was going to kick us out?" Oda Yoshinobu approached Sakai Tadashi and asked with a playful face, that tone, that look, how to look at it.
"You ......" Sakai Tadashi pointed at Oda Yoshinobu tremblingly, wanting to say something, but he couldn't say a word angrily. Because he understands that the moment Sena appears, he has already lost. The Matsudaira family had no way to go other than to ally with the Oda family.
Was Sena released back by the Imagawa clan on his own initiative? Obviously, it can't be, so after the current Kawa clan found out that Sena had disappeared, and then heard that he appeared in Okazaki Castle, a fool can guess what happened. At that time, even if the Matsudaira family has no intention of rebelling, they will be put on the hat of rebellion. After all, rescuing the hostages is something that no daimyo can endure.
"Good! Good! Good! Lord! I can't believe that you have already colluded with the Oda family! Or pretend to summon us to discuss this matter?! Sakai Tadashi turned around and looked at Matsudaira Motoyasu angrily.
"Zhongshang, you listen to my explanation......" Matsudaira Motoyasu hurriedly said, he didn't want to be deducted such a hat for some reason. Although he had plans to ally with the Oda family in his heart, it was definitely not in such an absolutely passive situation. Not to mention those words from Sakai Tadashi's mouth, he would never admit it.
A governor who disregards the opinions of his retainers, or even does not ask for the opinions of his retainers, directly decides such a major matter as the fate of the family, it is obviously impossible for any retainer to like it.
It's just a pity that Sakai Tadashi didn't give him a chance to speak at all, "Today's matter!" I will report to His Highness Imagawa immediately! Meantime. From today on, the affairs of the Matsudaira family have nothing to do with the Sakai family! Sakai shouted angrily, and then turned to leave.
Hear the words. Matsudaira Motoyasu was almost fainted directly, he was worried about Sakai Tadashi's qualifications and reaction, but it didn't mean that he would sit back and watch Sakai Tadashi betray his family. What if this head is not pinched off, and the others follow suitably to leave the Matsudaira family? It's just that...... If he spoke out to stop him, would it make the already dissatisfied retainers explode?
Matsudaira Motoyasu glanced at everyone. In their eyes, there was confusion, anger, confusion, and confusion. Obviously, Oda Yoshinobu suddenly brought Sena back to this matter, which was beyond the scope of the ability of all Matsudaira retainers to accept.
And this situation made him not dare to act rashly, so he could only stand in place and look at Oda Yoshinobu deadly. "I'll see how you're going to end!" Matsudaira Motoyasu secretly thought in his heart that he had already made up his mind and would never cooperate with any action by Oda Yoshinobu.
Watching Sakai Tadashi stride towards him, the corners of Oda Yoshinobu's mouth curled slightly. Directly pulled out Yaqi and blocked Sakai Tadashi's way. "Did I say you could go?" Oda Yoshinobu said with a sneer. And with his movements, the three people behind him also showed their weapons and rushed in.
Suddenly, there was silence in the assessment room. Well, many of these people did not wear weapons, after all, when they went to the lord's territory for a meeting, if everyone brought weapons, it was obviously not the same thing. So when the three of them put on poss and glared at everyone viciously, they were very wise to coax them. Anyway, it's not them who are looking for trouble now, and the dead friends are not the poor ones. Although they don't know the word, the truth is clear.
And those who wear weapons are basically Matsudaira Motoyasu's small surnames or flag books, facing this situation. Matsudaira Motoyasu, in particular, remained silent, and they didn't know what to do. With so many important ministers of the Matsudaira family gathered here, they didn't dare to mess around.
This kind of scene suddenly made Sakai Tadashi half angry, pointing at Oda Yoshinobu and wanting to scold, but he couldn't say a word when the words came to his mouth. When had he ever seen such an unreasonable messenger as Oda Yoshinobu? Is this person really planning to negotiate an alliance with the Matsudaira family?
"Tsk. It seems that your parents didn't teach you, don't point your fingers at others casually~" Oda Yoshinobu shook his head and said, and then saw a flash of white light, Sakai Tadashi screamed miserably, and knelt on the ground with his right hand.
"Bastard!" Just as Oda Yoshinobu was about to say something more and pretend to be forced, there was a sudden burst of shouts from beside him, and he turned his head to look, only to find that Kodaira Tai was rushing towards him with a sword.
"This kid, it's really ......" Oda Yoshinobu was immediately amused by this kid. Everyone quietly watched themselves pretending to be forced, and this fool jumped out to spoil the atmosphere, "How did such a blind guy become a samurai?" Oda Yoshishi sneered confidently, but he didn't intend to kill Koheita, but with a casual wave, Koheita's sword was broken in two, and then flew up, and poor Koheita lay on the ground and couldn't move.
"Matsudaira Motoyasu, who is this kid?" Yoshinobu Oda asked casually. Xiaopingtai's name, he is a little familiar, but this kind of young name is too ordinary, so he doesn't know who this person will be, so he can only ask the people who know. After all, in this era, in many cases, knowing a surname can get a lot of information.
"His name is Koheita, the son of Sakakihara Nagamasa, a retainer under Sakai Tadasho, and now he is my little surname." Matsudaira Motoyasu said coldly. Although he didn't want to answer, he couldn't be silent when people asked, right?
"Oh?" Hearing this, Oda Yoshinobu suddenly looked at Koheita with bright eyes, because he had already guessed who this kid was. The son of Sakai Tadashi's retainer, he was asked by Matsudaira Motoyasu to be a small surname, and his father's surname was Sakakihara. Who else could agree to these three conditions besides Sakakihara Yasumasa?
"Tsk, this kid's courage is commendable, huh...... I'm going to have this man! "Oda Yoshinobu seemed to be saying something very innocuous and had no intention of asking Matsudaira Motoyasu or Kodaira himself.
However, Matsudaira Motoyasu obviously didn't want to conflict with Oda Yoshinobu in such a boring place, "Yoshinobu-sama can take a fancy to him, that's his blessing......"
"Hehe, then thank you Matsudaira-sama." Oda Yoshinobu said casually, and then said with a straight face, "So now." Isn't it time to talk about the specifics? ”
Hearing this, Matsudaira Motoyasu nodded and sat back down. As for Sakai Tadashi, naturally there is a flag to take him down to take care of it.
"Hey. Xiaopingtai, you are my little surname now, why don't you come over quickly?! Seeing that Kodaira staggered up and was about to walk towards Matsudaira Motoyasu, Oda Yoshinobu suddenly shouted unhappily.
Hearing this, Xiaoping looked at Matsudaira Motoyasu in astonishment. Obviously I don't believe that he would really give himself away to others so casually. At the beginning, Matsudaira Motoyasu talked with Sakai Tadashi for a long time before he said that he wanted to go over.
Seeing Koheita's gaze, Matsudaira Motoyasu nodded expressionlessly, "Koheita, from today onwards, you have to serve Lord Yoshishin like you serve me, and don't lose the face of the Matsudaira family!" ”
Silent, Koheita didn't react after hearing Matsudaira Motoyasu's words. Just slowly walked behind Oda Yoshinobu. Well, it seems that this incident is a bit of a blow to Koheita.
However, he was unhappy, whether he was hit or not, obviously no one cared, because the next thing was to decide the future events of the Matsudaira family. Well, in fact, even if it's not such an important thing, no one cares about who Xiaoping is talking to. Belch...... Yoshinobu Oda may have a loss of care. After all, he is a future celebrity, but at this time, it is obviously impossible for him to say anything.
Let Sena, who was holding the two children, sit down first, and Oda Yoshinobu then sat next to her. And the three of them are still standing in front of everyone with poss.
This situation made Matsudaira Motoyasu frown suddenly, because he could see that Oda Yoshinobu didn't seem to plan to follow the normal negotiation routine.
Sure enough, Yoshinobu Oda sat down. He said directly, "Lord Matsudaira, I hope that from today onwards, the Matsudaira family will completely break away from the Imagawa family and submit to the Oda family!" ”
In a word, before Matsudaira Motoyasu could speak, the retainers below began to commotion. It's just that......
"Don't move! Don't speak! Keiji Maeda and the three of them unceremoniously brandished their weapons, bringing quiet back to the assessment room. Well, Torii Tadayoshi and other old ministers took the initiative to ask everyone to cooperate, which is also the reason why it can go so smoothly.
Seeing this scene, Matsudaira Motoyasu did not answer, and Oda Yoshinobu immediately continued to speak to himself. "After surrendering the main family, the main family can guarantee the status of the Matsudaira family in Mikawa in the future. At the same time, once the Imagawa family attacks the Matsudaira family, the main family will also send troops to help. But in the same way, once the family asks for it, the Matsudaira family must send troops to assist the family in the battle, and of course, the family will pay the Matsudaira family accordingly. ”
These words are no different from what Oda Yoshinobu told Matsudaira Motoyasu before. In fact, these contents were also requested by Oda Nobunaga, and there were not too many deviations from the treaties in the historical Oritoku League, the only difference was that historically, the Oda family and the Matsudaira family were nominally an equal position alliance, although in reality there was no difference from the corps commander under Oda Nobunaga.
And what Oda Yoshinobu wants is for the Matsudaira family to become a retainer of the Oda family completely. The reason is also very simple, he is not happy with this turtle now, how can he give him a chance to develop?
Hearing this, Matsudaira Motoyasu was immediately ready to refuse, he didn't agree before, and now he can't agree. Although because Oda Yoshinobu rescued Sena's mother and son, the Matsudaira family had to rebel. But the status still has to be fought for. In his opinion, all other conditions were negotiable, but the Oda family had to recognize the independent status of the Matsudaira family.
It's a pity that Oda Yoshinobu is not prepared to give Matsudaira Motoyasu room for negotiation at all. Hawkers, he is also self-aware and understands that he is not a Zhuge classmate who can fight the Confucianism, so he simply goes directly to the violent stream. Directly let Maeda Keiji and others control the retainers of the Matsudaira family, and then forcibly finalize this matter himself.
Therefore, seeing that Matsudaira Motoyasu was about to speak, Oda Yoshinobu immediately said, "After the Matsudaira family surrenders, Sena, Takechiyo, and Kame, the three of them, will be sent to Owari as hostages. However, since the strength of the Matsudaira family is too weak now, the family will also support 5,000 kan. ”
In one sentence, all the words that Matsudaira Motoyasu was going to say were blocked. There's no way, the Matsudaira family really has no money now. Although the Matsudaira family desperately saved expenses, barely enough for the Matsudaira family to maintain the situation in Mikawa, all of this was based on the support of the Imagawa family.
Once the Imagawa family learns about Sena, they will definitely immediately stop all assistance to the Matsudaira family, and even if Imagawa and Oda don't come to attack the Matsudaira family, the Matsudaira family will not collapse because of this, but within ten years, there will be no need to unify Mikawa.
Matsudaira Motoyasu looked at Oda Yoshinobu with a gloomy expression, and then looked at the many retainers who were silent around him, and when he saw Sakai Tadaji, Matsudaira Motoyasu nodded. At this time, there must be retainers who stand up and speak.
"Oda-sama! I have something to say below! Sakai Tadaji stood up and said loudly, ignoring Honda Tadakatsu's fierce gaze.
Seeing this, Honda Tadashi suddenly felt that he was being underestimated, otherwise why didn't the others speak, and someone jumped out on the side he was guarding? "Look for death!" Honda Tadakatsu drank heavily, and the dragonfly cut in his hand stabbed Sakai Tadaji in an instant.
"Stop." Oda Yoshinobu's flat voice came, causing the tip of Dragonfly Kiri's spear to stop less than 5 centimeters in Tadaji Sakai's chest. Well, if Honda Tadakatsu's skills were worse, maybe Sakai Tadaji would have died here unjustly.
"You're Tadaji Sakai, right? It's a good guts~" Oda Yoshinobu looked at Sakai Tadaji, whose face was still the same in this situation, and exclaimed. These words immediately made some of the young retainers around him ashamed. Tadashi Torii and the others, as if they had fallen asleep, sat there motionless, not knowing whether they understood that the general trend had gone or that they had other plans.
"Oda-sama, if the Oda family is sincere in making peace with the family, then the independent status of the family must be recognized! Alliance! It must also be built on equal footing! Otherwise, the Samurai of the Three Rivers would never be afraid of death! Tadaji Sakai said loudly. The words immediately made many retainers around him commotion.
"Hah...... Hahaha......" Hearing this, Oda Yoshinobu suddenly burst out laughing, as if he had heard something funny. "Aren't you afraid of death? If that's the case, after today, there will be no more Matsudaira family in the world......" Oda Yoshinobu said flatly, as if to say another trivial matter.
