Akai Naomasa's arrival was warmly welcomed by the Jingjing Jiaoye, "Jiaoye, what is the matter with your kid?" If you're in such a hurry to let me come over, aren't you afraid that Hatano will know about our relationship? Akai said with a chuckle, apparently hinting at something.

"Haha, if you're really scared, you're going to bring so many people over?" Shan Jing Jiaoye also laughed. How can someone who can make a name for themselves in this troubled world not have a few brushes?

Hearing this, Akai Naomasa laughed dryly twice, and then said no more. Yes, he does have such a plan, if Hideji Hatano really has any dissatisfaction with the Shiokei Sect because of this matter, it is definitely the thing that Akai Naomasa wants to see the most.

Speaking of which, this is also quite funny, obviously the Oda family has shown a posture of dominating the world, but Akai and Hatano, who are only about 100,000 stones, are still fighting among themselves. However, this is also a peculiarity of this era. Local strife never stops because of the rise of any power, on the contrary, they will fight more fiercely. Because they all know that there are still forces that really unify the world, then it will be difficult for them to expand their territory again.

In fact, neither Toyotomi Hideyoshi nor Tokugawa Ieyasu could really put an end to this phenomenon, and it was not until the opening of Tokugawa that Toyotomi Hideyoshi was completely eliminated and the world was truly unified, and this phenomenon began to decrease.

It may seem unwise, but in fact this is how small forces like the Akai family survive. Because they know very well that the unification of the world has nothing to do with them. After all, not everyone is like Oda Nobunaga, who has only half of the unstable Owari and dreams of unifying the world.

Expanding the territory, occupying a country, and then following those powerful forces to unify the world, and finally getting more fiefs, this is the common mind of small forces. And this is also the reason why those small forces are always falling to various rising powerful forces with the wind.

"So, what is the important thing that you called me here?" After coming to a secret room, Akai Naomasa couldn't wait to ask.

Hearing this, Shan Jing Jiaoye chuckled, "Actually, it's not that I'm looking for something for you, it's that another adult is looking for something for you~"

“？！” Hearing the words of the Shan Jing Sect, Akai Naomasa unconsciously held the saber on his waist, obviously, the words of the Shan Jing Sect made him vigilant. But it's no wonder, after all, it's really easy to misunderstand what the Jingjing Sect said.

However, it didn't seem to have any intention of explaining, so he just looked at Akai Naomasa and smiled, "Don't worry, when you see that adult, you will understand everything." ”

Akai's mind raced, but before he could think of the answer, the answer came out on its own.

"Akechi Mitsuhide?!" Akai Naomasa looked at the man who walked into the room and looked at him with a smile on his face, his face full of disbelief. Because he could not have imagined that this important minister of the Oda family would come to Tamba in person, and it seemed ......

"You ...... the teaching," Akai Naoma looked at the Sakai Sect and tried to confirm something.

Nodding, the Ryokai sect did not hide anything, "Yes, I have already promised to submit to the Oda family." His expression was very calm, as if there was nothing strange about him saying this.

"Reason!" Akai asked, looking directly at the Jingjiao industry.

"Kuwata-gun!" Shan Jing Jiaoye said lightly.

In a word, Akai Naomasa was silent. And at this time, Akechi Mitsuhidecai, who had been watching from the sidelines, chuckled and said, "Lord Akai, I don't want to say too much hypocritical words, if the Akai family is willing to submit, Helu County and Amada County will be the Akai family~"

Hearing this, Akai Naomasa suddenly raised his head and looked at Akechi Mitsuhide, "Really?!" Akai asked in disbelief. Although the Akai family is known as the second strongest force in Tanba, in fact, the only thing he can really control is the territory of less than 50,000 koku in Amada County.

And what about Hatanoya? However, it has 100,000 stone in the county of Yushang and the county of Duoji. The rest of Funai County and Helu County are mostly a group of wall-headed grass forces, after the Akai family was in the limelight some time ago, many wealthy families in Helu County began to worship the Akai family, but obviously, once the Akai family loses power, they will definitely not mind falling into the well with other forces.

Therefore, if you want to really control Holu-gun, even if Akai Nao is Tanba's ghost Akai, it will take a lot of effort, not to mention that it is impossible for the Hatano family to sit idly by.

But if the Oda family can help, it will be different. Akai Naomasa knew very well how powerful the Oda family was, and that was a level that the Akai family would not be able to reach in another 20 years. Akai Naomasa could easily imagine that once the Akai family and the Shiokei family submitted, then the Oda family would easily take Tanba. Because with the strength of the Hatano family, it is impossible to block the attack of the Oda family, even if it is only a part of the strength of the Oda family.

"Can I trust you?"

Akai Naoto looked at Akechi Mitsuhide directly and asked, Akechi Mitsuhide's words made him moved, but in the troubled times, don't just believe the words of strangers but the truth.

"Of course~" Akechi Mitsuhide smiled when he heard this, "I don't have to lie to you, do I?" Akechi Mitsuhide's expression was very sincere when he said this, and people couldn't help but believe it. I have to say that this is also the talent of Akechi Mitsuhide, you must know that Oda Yoshinobu didn't like Akechi Mitsuhide so much, and in the end he became friends with him.

"The lord has given me full authority to attack Danbo, and at the same time, after taking Tanbo, this place will also become my fiefdom. So, I have no reason to deceive my right-hand man in the future. Akechi Mitsuhide said again.

Hearing this, Akai nodded straightly, although the vicious confidence in Akechi Mitsuhide's words made him a little unhappy, but he had to admit that Akechi Mitsuhide said the truth. Even if the Akai family doesn't submit, won't Akechi Mitsuhide be able to take Tanba? No way! When the Sakai family submitted, the Oda family had already opened the way to attack Tanba. The rest only needs to encroach on Tanba step by step, and whether it is the Hatano family or the Akai family, there is nothing to be done about it.

After two battles against Saryuji Castle, Akai Naomasa already knew very well how terrifying the Oda family's forces were. At the same time, he also has a clear understanding of Akechi Mitsuhide's military capabilities.

After thinking about it, Akai Naomasa finally agreed to Akechi Mitsuhide's words, after all, there was no other choice, didn't he?
