Chapter 246: Dispatch troops to Dongsanhe
In Okazaki Castle, in Oda Yoshinobu's room, Chiyo Mochizuki naturally leaned on Oda Yoshinobu's arms, looked sideways at Oda Yoshinobu and laughed softly, "How is it?" Oda-sama, this condition is simple, isn't it? As long as you say yes~"
"It's as simple as that?" Oda Yoshinobu looked at Chiyo Mochizuki suspiciously, he didn't feel that the woman in front of him was so naΓ―ve, otherwise he would not have escaped from the Takeda family. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Yes, but if Oda-sama just agrees, in order to show your sincerity, the little girl hopes that you can help the little girl revive the Mochizuki family." Chiyo Mochizuki whispered.
Hearing this, Oda Yoshinobu pinched the plump **** of Chiyo Mochizuki, and a strange smile appeared on his face, "This is your real purpose, right?" β
"Not bad!" Chiyo Mochizuki didn't hide anything when she heard this, and replied directly in the affirmative.
"After the Mochizuki family died in battle, as the only bloodline of the family, the only hope of the little girl is to continue the Mochizuki family, so the little girl will do things for Takeda Shingen." Chiyo Mochizuki said, and began to talk about her past.
Well...... Speaking of which, what happened to her was as if there had been countless tragedies in this troubled world, all the family members were killed by the enemy, and then under the promise of the enemy, she subdued the enemy, only hoping that her desperate efforts could be exchanged for the continuation of the family.
It's a pity that Chiyo Mochizuki doesn't seem to be able to gain the trust of Takeda Shingen, and Takeda Shingen promised her that she didn't really intend to let the Mochizuki family stay. Everything is just for the ninjutsu secret technique of the Mochizuki family.
At first, Mochizuki, who had succeeded to the Mochizuki family, married Chiyo Mochizuki when he was in his prime, and then died in the Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima when he did not give birth to a son-in-law. And then Takeda Shingen immediately asked his nephew, Takeda Nobuya, the son of Takeda Nobushiga, who had died in battle, to marry Chiyo Mochizuki and inherit the Mochizuki family again.
And whether it is Mochizuki in his prime, or Mochizuki Shinya, the only purpose is just to obtain the secret skills of the Mochizuki family. It's a pity that although Chiyo Mochizuki is young, she has never forgotten the advice of her parents before they died, so she has never handed over all the secret skills to her two husbands, but just takes out some ordinary ninjutsu scrolls from time to time to send them away.
So in the end, Takeda Shingen couldn't bear it anymore and transferred Chiyo Mochizuki away from Mochizuki and sent her to the castle town of the ancient imperial castle to open a shrine maiden dojo. On the one hand, he really hopes that Chiyo Mochizuki can help him cultivate a group of excellent female ninjas. On the other hand, they also gave up on obtaining the secret technique from Chiyo Mochizuki, and decided to forcibly search for it.
"Hehe, it's just that Takeda Shingen can't know anyway, the secret skills of the Mochizuki clan have always been passed down orally......" Chiyo Mochizuki said with a sneer.
"Uh...... You were only 6 years old at the time, right? Oda Yoshinobu asked strangely when he heard this.
"That's right, but a good ninja basically needs to practice ninjutsu from the age of 3. And forcibly writing down all the ninjutsu in the family is a course that needs to be completed at the beginning. Chiyo Mochizuki said as a matter of course.
ββ¦β¦ It turns out that every ninja heir is a scholar......" Oda Yoshiki thought speechlessly in confidence.
"Alright, Oda-sama, you should have made a decision in your mind, right?" Chiyonu Mochizuki seemed to be tired, and her tone was flat for Oda Yoshinobu to make a choice. "Of course, you can also forcibly possess me without agreeing to anything, with your strength, the little girl will not be able to resist. However, the little girl believes that this condition is beneficial to you. β
Hearing this, Oda Yoshinobu didn't feel angry, although Chiyo Mochizuki's tone didn't sound very comfortable. However, Oda Yoshinobu was only curious, because he felt that Chiyome Mochizuki seemed very sure that he would agree to her terms.
"Oh? Why are you so sure? Since you've been in the Takeda family for many years, you should know it well, right? The Honke family and the Takeda family already have the idea of forming an alliance with each other. Oda Yoshinobu asked curiously.
"Yes, and the little girl believes that the Oda and Takeda families will eventually form an alliance against the Imagawa family." Chiyo Mochizuki said affirmatively.
"In that case, then why do you think I'm going to promise you?" Oda Yoshinobu suddenly felt that the woman Chiyo Mochizuki was probably not just a ninja with a strong ninjutsu.
"Analysis, as a ninja leader, the most important skill is not ninjutsu, but the analysis of intelligence!" Chiyonu Mochizuki said with a smile, "Through the analysis of the intelligence collected by the little girl privately, although the Oda family and the Takeda family will definitely be allied because of the Imagawa family, after the destruction of the Imagawa family, the Takeda family will definitely tear up the alliance with the Oda family, because at that time, if Takeda Shingen wants to develop, he will only go from Tokaido!" At that time, the Oda family will only be an obstacle for him. β
"Oh......" Oda Yoshinobu heard this, and just wanted to say why it wasn't North Hit Uesugi or East Upper Kanto. But fortunately, he reacted quickly enough not to say such foolish words. After all, if Takeda Shingen can win the Uesugi family or officially enter the Kanto region, he will be stupid to take a huge risk to break the alliance with the Imagawa family.
"Okay, I promise you, from today onwards, you will be my retainer and the governor of the Mochizuki family. Hawkers,Although there is no territory for you for the time being, it's just that. Yoshinobu Oda said. He was persuaded by Chiyo Mochizuki, indeed, she was right, the Takeda family would definitely choose to break the alliance with the Oda family in the future, although she did not guess that at that time, the Takeda family no longer had the strength to declare war on the Oda family alone. But as she said, Oda Yoshinobu had no reason not to agree to Chiyo Mochizuki.
"Thank you, my lord!" Chiyonu Mochizuki said, a hint of ruddy suddenly appeared on her face, and then she looked at Oda Yoshinobu sequeductively and said, "Lord, my subordinates have come down to serve you......" As she spoke, she slowly slipped out of Oda Yoshinobu's arms......
Sleepless all night, throughout the night, Oda Yoshinobu had only one thought in his mind, "This major is different......"
Well, it's professional, after all, the number of female ninjas is not very small in this era, and of course there are much fewer than male ninjas. In terms of combat skills, they are difficult to compare with male ninjas, but in terms of intelligence acquisition, assassination, etc., their combat records are not much worse than those of male ninjas, relying on their natural weapons. And this kind of weapon, for most men, will never be able to guard against.
Belch...... In this way, sooner or later, our great protagonist will die on a woman's belly...... Ahem...... Be careful......
The next afternoon, Oda Yoshinobu summoned Keiji Maeda and others and introduced them to Kanzo Kato and Chiyome Mochizuki.
"In the future, the training of ninjas will be handed over to Duan Zang and Chiyo Nu, Duan Zang is responsible for training male ninjas who are good at assassination, searching, and spying, while Chiyo Nu is responsible for training female ninjas." Oda Yoshinobu said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" When everyone heard this, they responded in unison. Naturally, they won't have any opinions on this, and seeing the appearance of Chiyo Mochizuki, they also know that she must have been accepted by Oda Yoshinobu again, and they won't have any opinions.
But obviously, now in Mikawa, this kind of talk can only be said, and if you really want to cultivate, you have to return to Owari.
On November 20, after everything was ready, the 5,000-strong army of Oda and Matsudaira finally set out from Okazaki and began to march towards Nagashino Castle in Higashimikawa. Yoshinobu Oda and Ieyasu Matsudaira knew very well that this time the campaign had to be won. Don't look at the appearance of the temple guarding the temple now, but that's because since they were defeated by the army led by Oda Yoshinobu, they were scared of the empty oath.
But once the combined forces of Oda and Matsudaira lose in the conquest of Higashi-Mikawa, then they will definitely take advantage of the situation and expand their territory again. Although the samurai who had already surrendered to the Matsudaira clan would not necessarily rebel again, at that time, it was not so simple for Matsudaira Ieyasu to successfully pacify Mikawa.
And when Yoshiaki Kira learned of this situation, he hurriedly used Ii Naoto's mother and daughter to blackmail, forcing Yasuyo Kondo, Shigetu Suzuki, and Tadahisa Suganuma to fight the enemy desperately. At the same time, he sent gold and silver to Ono Michiyoshi, who was guarding Kakimoto Castle, hoping that he would be able to send someone to Enoe to continue asking for help.
"Hehe, Yoshiaki Kira seems to be scared stupid...... Ono Michiyoshi said with a sneer, casually tearing the letter in his hand in half.
"Ono-sama?!" The retainer of the Kira family who had been sent looked at Ono Michiyoshi in shock, and just wanted to scold him angrily, when he suddenly felt a numbness in his neck, and then lost his instincts.
"Lord, what now? Do you want to go back to Yuanjiang? A samurai standing next to the Kira envoy asked, a sword still dripping with blood in his hand.
"Of course, why don't you stay here and die? Pack up and take everything you can. If you can't take it, just burn it, and it's cheap to keep it anyway Matsudaira Ieyasu. Ono said casually.
"Nai Yi......" The retainer hesitated for a moment, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ono Michiyoshi.
"In the future, there will be no Jing family, I heard that the lord sent Asahina-sama to guard the Yuanjiang, and when we go back, we directly say that Jing Yi Naohu has defected to Mikawa. In order to prevent Iiya Castle from falling into the hands of Matsudaira Ieyasu, I had no choice but to do it first. Otherwise, why do you think I'm so simple to hand over Ii Naoto's mother and son to Yoshiaki Kira? If they were here, those brains in Iiya City would definitely not be so easy to submit. Ono said with a smile.
"The lord is wise!"
Ono Michiyoshi led his army back to Enoe, and Kakimoto Castle was burned, and the news soon reached Yoshiaki Kira's ears. "Bastard! That bastard! Yoshiaki Kira roared angrily, but now, what can he do with Ono?
Helpless, he could only send another order to the three Kondo Yasuyo, asking them to defend the three castles to the death, otherwise they would execute the mother and son of Ii Naoto. But even if they resist desperately, can they really stop the Oda and Matsudaira coalition forces?
On November 22, when the combined forces of Oda and Matsudaira had just arrived in the new castle, Hattori Hanzo brought the news that Kakimoto Castle had been burned down. At the same time, there are also the guards of the three castles such as Xincheng, which is the news of the retainers of the Jing family.
The Oda and Matsudaira coalition forces are in the main camp.
"My lord, Lord Matsudaira, my subordinates think you can try to persuade you to surrender." Fernand said respectfully.
"Persuade me to surrender...... It's okay, Fernand, you can take someone to try it. Oda Yoshinobu nodded and said.
Hearing this, Matsudaira Ieyasu naturally wouldn't disagree, after all, if he could persuade him to surrender, it would be the best.
Upon receiving the order, Fernand immediately led his men to the new city, and after about half an hour he hurried back.
"My lord, the new city guard Kondo Yasuyo said, as long as the family can rescue the mother and son of the Jing Yi family, then the three cities of the new city, Sakute City, and Gumiya City will be surrendered immediately." Fernande relayed Kondo's words.
"Oh? Is Ii Naotora mother and son? Oda Yoshinobu nodded and said, "Yes." Go and tell them that if they want to save their governor, then they must do as I tell them. β
Immediately, Oda Yoshinobu explained to Fernande, and Fernande nodded and left.
"Father, isn't it a little ...... to do this," Matsudaira Ieyasu said with some hesitation. In his opinion, Oda Yoshinobu's method is too risky, and with the strength of the current Ori-German coalition army, it is completely possible to attack one city after another.
"Hehe, Ieyasu, wouldn't it be nice to be able to do less killing?" Oda Yoshinobu laughed, how could he possibly tell Matsudaira Ieyasu that he was interested in Naotora Ii?
In this regard, although Matsudaira Ieyasu did not approve, it was not easy to oppose it. After thinking about it, he finally ordered to follow Oda Yoshinobu's method.
On the same day, the Oda and Matsudaira coalition forces divided their troops into four routes, and 1,000 people each on the three roads besieged the new city, Sakute, and the ancient palace, and the remaining 2,000 troops were led by Oda Yoshinobu and Matsudaira Ieyasu himself, and marched straight to Nagashino Castle. And although the three of Kondo fought desperately, they still couldn't break through the encirclement of the coalition forces, so they could only defend the city, and on the one hand, they tried to find a way to report to Nagashino Castle.
Obviously, though, they didn't need to send someone to report the news, because Yoshiaki Kira didn't know how many spies he had sent to monitor the surroundings of the three cities. Almost as soon as the Oritoku coalition was in action, Yoshiaki Kira got the news shortly after.
"Haha! Two children are so arrogant! God help me! Yoshiaki Kira said excitedly after learning the news, at this time, nearly 4,000 troops had gathered in Nagashino Castle, and this was already the army that Yoshiaki Kira had tried his best to form. Although going out of the city to meet the enemy may not be able to defeat the Weaving German coalition army, it is not always a problem to defend the city, right?
Thinking about it, Kira Yoshiaki immediately wrote several letters and ordered someone to send them to the empty oath of the temple. He hoped that after blocking the attack of the Weaving De coalition army on his side, the side of the temple could cooperate with the troops. As long as this is the case, the Weaving-German coalition army will inevitably withdraw to Xisanhe. In that case, the Kira family's power in Higashimikawa would be secured. (To be continued.) )
