Chapter 011: The Crisis of Owari and the Glory of the Samurai

It is very likely that these things that I am talking about now are nonsense, and it is very likely that these things were made up by literati in the Edo period, in order to cater to some of the policies of the Edo shogunate. In the future, everything related to the situation and policy may be made up, and if this is the case with history, let alone reality. Why, because it's too.

There really isn't any particularly good politician in Japan, and the only one I admire in modern times is the first post-war prime minister, Shigeru Yoshida. Japanese politics is called "ryotei", and the political ryoti can probably be imagined as an Internet café box, in which a few politicians hide and are obscene. That's the case.

Owari, lord Oda Nobuhide, the west is divided into several districts.

The person in charge of Nakono Castle is Oda Nobunaga, and because of the opposition to Oda Nobuyuki, it is a district that is not very peaceful.

There is also a Kiyoshu district, which is even more restless, and the mayor of the district, I mentioned earlier, is Oda Nobunaga's younger brother, the house cat Oda Nobuyo, and the house cat Spo Yoshito, and a jackal Sakai Daizen.

Where there are people, there is struggle. The former lord Si Bo Yitong was unwilling to be fired like this, and his younger brother was not willing to be a district chief for the rest of his life. But the three stinkers are of little use, because their opponent is the Tiger of Owari.

But they are not reconciled, so they wait, wait......

One day, a fire broke out outside Cheongju City, and a group of people ran outside Cheongju City to make a scene. He ran out of the castle and set fire to the shopping street (castle town) outside the city.

Don't look at the fact that the Japanese comics industry is so developed now, and their imagination is good, but the Japanese in that era had a relatively straight brain, and the three of them were confused, and they could only guess blindly about this unsolved mystery......

Do you remember how Tokugawa Ieyasu, that is, Takechiyo's children, came to Owari? After the first Battle of Kodozaka, Nobuhide "picked up". Let's not forget that Takechiyo's children are theoretically still hostages of the Imagawa family, and for the fact that the hostages who should have been in their own family ran to the opponent's house, Imagawa Yoshimoto will definitely not be very happy, if he can't even guarantee his own hostages, how can the Imagawa family be called a Warring States giant, besides, he lost the first battle of Kodozaka, although he didn't hurt his bones, but he made himself more faceless, but he achieved the face of Owari no Tiger. Imagawa Yoshimoto said that I was going to find a venue, so he gathered a group of people and Oda Nobuhide to make an appointment at the place of Kodozaka. It is known in history as the Second Battle of Shodozaka.

For this kind of thought, I feel very speechless, I have been slapped in the face once in the same place, how can I still come? However, one thing may give me the answer, remember that in World War I, France finally won the war and signed a treaty with Germany in a carriage called Foch, the Germans were very unhappy about this, and always remembered this carriage, so in World War II, when the German army marched into Paris and France concluded an armistice treaty again, they deliberately turned out this carriage, damn, it was signed in this Foch carriage! You see, it's all about face. However, we can put it another inspirational way:

Where you fall, you get up.

Well, the result of the second Shodozaka group fight is: the hooligans brought by Imagawa Yoshimoto are more capable of cutting, maybe Owari no Tiger is old and not able to cut when he was young. In short, this time Owari no Tora lost, and his son Oda Nobuhiro was captured by the other party. Although he said that he had 25 sons, he died and it was not a big deal, but he was captured by the other party, which is a face problem, and it just so happens that the face problem of the Imagawa family "Takechiyo hostage incident" also needs to be solved. So a simple hostage exchange took place:

Oda Nobuhiro returned to his home as his father's face, and it was obvious that he would be thrown into a corner and moldy. It turns out that this is indeed the case, and it is difficult for us to see this person again in historical records.

Chiyo Takechiyo ended his career as a hostage in Owari and went to Sunfu to start another period of his career as a hostage.

By the way, the one who proposed the diplomatic strategy of hostage exchange was the Imagawa family's military advisor, the bald head Taiyuan Yukisai, who would be Takechiyo's teacher (mentioned earlier).

The aftermath of the Second Battle of Shodozaka also passed, perhaps due to excessive alcohol, or perhaps due to battlefield frustration, Owari no Tora fell ill and died soon after.

The comrades of Owari decided to hold a memorial service for the boss. The white flag is displayed, and the crowd is crowded. Regardless of whether there are tears or not, whether there is a debt relationship or not, everyone comes to brush up on a sense of existence. But everyone was together, and Nobunaga didn't come.

, your father died, and you, as the eldest son and heir, didn't even go to preside over the funeral. Don't wait, let's get started. The Oda family's meritorious family old Hirate Masahide said this (presumably very speechless in his heart).

Halfway through the memorial service, when the Oda family's pen head Shibata Katsuie was remembering how awesome his boss was, Nobunaga came.

Dressed in strange costumes, got a hairstyle to kill Matt, no one has a bird, walked straight to Dad's spiritual seat in the stunned eyes of everyone, grabbed a handful of incense ash and threw it at Dad's spirit card, laughed wildly, and then left, I just want to ask, "Are you taking revenge on your dad for robbing your girlfriend?" ”

"Stupid stupid stupid, stupid stupid, big stupid!" Almost everyone thinks so. At a time when Owari was in internal and external troubles, Oda Nobunaga, the nominal supreme leader of Owari, turned his father's funeral platform into his own catwalk.

I like a Japanese samurai very much, his name is Masahide Hirate, and I can't help but pull him when it comes to Nobunaga, he is Nobunaga's mentor in life.

Masahide Hirate, Owari distinguished politician, diplomat, educator, scholar.

He used to be the elder of the Oda family, and more than ten years ago, the lord Owari no Tora Nobuhide gave him a naughty child.

More than 2,000 years ago

A businessman named Lü Buwei asked his father: How many times can I make a profit by cultivating the land?

Father: Ten times

And then he asked, "What about the sale of pearls?"

Answer: 100 times.

And he asked, "What about a king?"

A: Countless.

When everyone said that the child was a fool and turned to support the child's younger brother, Masahide did not leave, because others saw Nobunaga as a political investment, and Masahide treated Nobunaga as a human being. So Nobunaga treats others as toys and calls Masahide "grandpa".

No matter how naughty Nobunaga was, Masahide never restrained him. Don't abandon, don't give up. When everyone is attached to Nobuyuki for their future, Masahide finds a good wife for Nobunaga. Because Masahide knows what is the trust of a samurai and what is the responsibility of a samurai.

Masahide looked at everything Nobunaga did in front of Nobunaga, and it didn't matter if he didn't understand, maybe he didn't understand it anymore.

"I have been serving the Oda clan for many years, and I have watched Nobuhide grow up, and Nobuhide entrusted his eldest son, Nobunaga, to me. It is the honor of Masahide, and it is the glory of Masahide as a samurai. You have given me great trust, and I am willing to follow you. ”

One night, Masahide returned to his room, wrote his last letter for Nobunaga, then bathed and changed his clothes, sat on the tatami mat, untied his shirt, and inserted a wakisha (similar to a dagger) into his abdomen and pulled it horizontally, neatly and neatly.

Masahide used his samurai life to give Nobunaga a final exhortation. We all say that the courtiers who dare to admonish each other with death are very awesome, and this kind of behavior is called death admonition, but few of these dead admonishers are really dead. So what is even more awesome than death advice is the kind of Hisho Masa, the corpse admonition, using his own corpse to advise the monarch.

"Stop wearing fancy dresses

Stop picking your nose in public

Don't change your hairstyle again

Don't ...... anymore

Do you think this is grandpa exhorting with his life?

No

This is grandpa's entrustment

From now on, grandpa will look at each other in the sky. ”

The moment the flowers fall, the body of the samurai, full of faith and glory, will eventually return to the roots.

I used to express my disgust with Japanese seppuku, but since I saw Masahide's death, every time I see some Japanese filmed by a Chinese director, I take a long, stupid Taidao (long knife) and stick it into the stomach, which is called seppuku, and I change the channel. When the hero walks through the crowd on horseback, there is always someone who applauds nearby. So I applaud Masahide for the tie.
