The noisy sound of the battle between the two armies under the mountain naturally reached the ears of the Oda army.

To be exact, it reached the ears of the main force led by Nobunaga himself.

When Sasa Masaji and Chiakishiro were surrounded by immortals, Nobunaga had already led the main force to Mt. Tsubasasa.

They lay silently in the mountains and dense bushes.

Liang Tian Zhenggang, who went to investigate, soon returned:

"It's the troops of Sasa-sama and Chiaki-sama! It seems that the battle has been raging for a long time. ”

"Nani?"

Nobunaga raised his eyebrows in surprise, he had clearly let Sasa Masaji stay in Atsuta...... He somehow broke into the battlefield, what was going on?

"Oops! Masaji must have wanted to use his death to delay time for the lord and create a fighter! …… This stinky boy turned out to be ......"

Shibata Katsuya on the side reacted quickly, he was going to scold Masaji a few words, but when he thought that most of this war Masaji was nine deaths, his heart was inevitably sad, and he couldn't help choking up.

"My lord! Hurry up and launch a surprise attack to rescue the political government! ”

"Lord!"

"Lord!"

Although everyone is not like the Katsu family and the Sazuo family have an in-law relationship, but on weekdays they are also obedient to Sasa's masachim, and at this moment, seeing that Masaji is in danger, they are all asking for help one after another.

But Oda Nobunaga was strangely silent, with no expression and no response to everyone.

This made everyone feel worried.

"It doesn't matter."

Oda Nobunaga suddenly opened his mouth in a voice that was extremely indifferent.

"Since Masaji wants to die, then let him die as he deserves. As for our army, we can also take advantage of this opportunity to kill Imagawa Yoshimoto in one fell swoop! Pass the order down, wait for the fighter, no one is allowed to act, and those who violate the order will be killed! ”

When everyone heard Nobunaga's tone, their faces were cold, and they were shocked by Nobunaga's cold-blooded ruthlessness.

But on second thought, Nobunaga's order to wait for the fighter plane at this moment is undoubtedly the most rational thing to do.

They have been trekking for most of the day, and they are already exhausted, if they go down the mountain to assault the Imagawa army at this time, it will be tantamount to a sheep entering the mouth of a tiger, not only can not save Sasa Masaji, but it is also possible to make this surprise attack completely fail!

However, human beings are sensual animals!

Sasa Naruma pretended to be the priest of Kumawakamiya in Yoshimoto's main formation, and once the surprise attack of the Oda army began, Narumasa would most likely be exposed, and Sasa Narumasa and his party would be in danger of being tired.

And Sasa Masaji, who was supposed to stay at Atsuta Shrine, was also dying in the main battle of the Imagawa army at this moment......

Poor Bila Sasa's family is a loyal martyr, and in the end, they will all die in battle?

The few people who knew the whereabouts of Sazo Chengzheng were all embarrassed.

The tall Keiji Maeda also had tears in his eyes and sobbed in a low voice behind Shibata Katsuie.

In the tumultuous white rain, everyone finally obeyed Nobunaga's order and hibernated on the Tsukasama Mountain.

***

"Impossible! How could it be Massaji Sasa! ”

When the news reached Imagawa Yoshimoto's main camp, Narumasa roared out of frustration.

"Obviously, I have an appointment with Oda Nobunaga in advance, and I won't let my eldest brother come to the front line in person, how is this possible!"

He still didn't want to believe that the general who led the raid on the Imagawa army at this moment was Sasa Masaji, he didn't want his eldest brother Sasa Masaji to also become an outcast in the hands of Nobunaga, and he didn't want the last bloodline of Sasa's family to be completely cut off in this battle.

Isn't the reason why he was willing to take a risk and help Nobunaga plan the raid on the barrel narrow room to protect the political order?

But now, Narimasa's own disguise has been seen through by Yoshiwon, and even Sasaji has become an outcast again, which is tantamount to announcing the failure of Seimasa, and his carefully planned surprise attack on the barrel is as ridiculous as a child's trick at this moment.

What a complete failure from start to finish!

"No...... I don't believe it! ”

Narumasa twisted his body frantically, trying to break free from the ropes on his body, but under the restraint of the four Imagawa family Hajimoto samurai, Narumasa was like a trapped beast, unable to get out no matter how hard he struggled, and could only vent his dissatisfaction with anger and desperate roars.

It wasn't until the hideous human head was held in front of Imagawa Yoshimoto that Sasa Narumasa finally stopped his senseless struggle.

That's the head of Massaji Sasa.

Masaji's angry eyes and thick eyebrows were stiffened, and the heavy rain washed away the blood stains in his skull in an instant, and Masaji's bronzed skin in the past now looked extremely white and indescribably weird.

Sasa sat down.

The face of the eldest brother Masaji, he will never admit his mistake.

The human head, which no longer dripped blood, was indeed the head of Sasa Masaji.

Chengzheng was disillusioned for a while.

"The enemy general Sasa Masaji is sought by Ii Naomori!"

When he heard the name of Naomori I, the eyes of Sasa Naimasa, who had a sad face, flashed coldly.

- Naomori Ii, must die!

I don't know how long it took, the noise in the Imagawa army was quiet, and these pioneers who were guarding Yoshimoto also let go of their nervousness and began to look for a place to shelter from the rain.

It seems that the eldest brother's troops have been completely annihilated.

Sasa sat weakly on the mud, letting the cold raindrops lap on his cheeks, only to feel that all thoughts were lost.

He would never have thought that all the efforts he had made to protect Sasa's family would be in vain.

At this time, Imagawa Yoshimoto actually let people untie the shackles on Chengzheng's body, not only that, but he also asked people to bring two small tables and set up a small banquet under the tarpaulin to cover the rain.

And the things that Imagawa Yoshimoto used to entertain Sasa Seimasa were the local products and bad wine brought by Seimasa before.

"There's not much in the army, so let's make do with it."

Yoshimoto poured himself a glass of wine, and although it was raining heavily outside and the cold wind was blowing on his face, his hand holding the wine glass and the flat wine glass did not shake at all.

It was only at this moment that Sasa Naruma really began to look at the outstanding young samurai in front of him.

Narumasa also began to quickly go through all the information about the "first bow of the Tokaido" in the past two years in his mind.

"What does Jibu-sama mean, is this cup a severed head wine?"

Although Cheng Zheng had guessed that Yiyuan had loosened his bonds, most likely because he had no murderous intentions, who could guarantee that he would not suddenly change his face?

Moreover, the two of them always have to find a topic to talk about, and Cheng Zheng's temptation like this is just the meaning of the topic.

"Chengzheng Sangdo is worried, with your talent and ability, how can I be willing to kill you, at this moment, the Sasa family has been ruined by Oda Nobunaga, why don't you come to work under me?"

Such a blatant solicitation surprised Cheng Zheng.

The Imagawa family is extremely high, and if you think about Yoshimoto, your eyes are above the top, and ordinary people won't pay attention to it, but as soon as he opens his mouth, he wants to recruit himself, what the hell?

Thinking of this, Sazo Chengzheng couldn't help but smile wryly:

"How can he ...... in the next Hode"

"You're rebellious! Even if you knelt down in front of me just now, you never had the servile face of others, but your expression was indifferent, and you didn't seem to take my identity in your eyes at all, which shows that you are a proud person. ”

The question that Cheng Zheng wanted to ask hadn't been said yet, and Yiyuan seemed to have insight into his heart, and he had his own aggressive momentum between Gu Pan:

"I'm curious about what kind of people would have the audacity to ignore heroes so much. But ......"

Yi Yuan's words changed,

"Since you are extremely knowledgeable and arrogant, but you are not well-known in Owari Kazukuni, it can be seen that Oda Nobunaga does not use you seriously, which is very strange. But no matter where the strangeness is, I, Imagawa Yoshimoto, can tolerate you, if you are willing to help me go to Luo and level the island of Honshu, even if the world is peaceful, it is just around the corner! When the day of peace comes, how can there be any more innocent lives who die on the battlefield, and samurai who are as loyal as Sasa Morimasa and Sasa Masaji will never die in vain like today.

"How? Will you assist me? After I go to Luo, how about giving you Owari Ichikoku? ”

Cheng Zheng was shocked in his heart, and he also fell silent.

He had to admit that Imagawa Yoshimoto was very good at drawing flatbread.

Whether Yoshimoto's Shangluo is for the peace of the world or not is not examined, and Chengzheng cannot be known, but just having the ambition to unify Japan is already extremely extraordinary among the daimyo of the mud bombardment countries. Countless lords are mediocre, struggling to survive just to preserve their family's inherited territory.

Imagawa Yoshimoto's pride and ambition are more than a step above them?

After a long time, Sasa Chengzheng finally spoke:

"I beg your pardon for refusing!"
