Chapter 459: Thousands of Miles to Send Relatives

Tominaga Tadamoto was also not a good-tempered samurai, and was completely enraged by the foul language of the two Matsudaira samurai, and no longer had the heart to maintain the etiquette of a samurai, so he immediately chased after him and beheaded Okubo Daihachiro and Torii Hanrokuro, and vowed to defeat this unruly Matsudaira army and let them taste the taste of defeat.

He didn't realize that his 1,500 troops had been quietly lured to Fuji Ha Chang, not far from Tojo Castle, and half an hour passed to chase and fight all the way, Tominaga Tadamoto was already tired and a little out of breath, and just planned to rest for a while but found that there was a large paddy field full of seedlings around him, and at this time, many samurai with the flag mark of Mitsuha Aoi suddenly appeared in the woods near the paddy field, and he knew that it was Matsudaira Tadaji's main camp by looking at the flag seal.

Tominaga Tadamoto immediately understood that he must have fallen into the trap of the Matsudaira family and hurriedly retreated, just as he was about to evacuate, Honda Takashi, who had been defeated, suddenly turned back and killed, and with only two hundred troops, he was defeated and unable to resist on this narrow field road.

Because of the special ceremony before the battle, the samurai of the Matsudaira family rushed to Tominaga Tadayuan one by one as if they had been stimulated, as the saying goes, a good man is hard to defeat a four-handed hungry tiger and is afraid of wolves, not to mention that Tominaga Tadagen coincided with the embarrassing moment when the old force went to the new force, and it became more and more difficult to resist.

In the face of more than a dozen big guns stretched out in front of him, he wanted to pierce him into a blood gourd, even if Tominaga Tadayuan was brave and fierce, he still couldn't save the fiasco, Tominaga Tadayuan struggled for half a moment on the left and right but found that the army of this formation had collapsed nearly half, and the general had not yet retreated and the army had retreated first, so that he had nothing to say at all.

It was hard to hold on for a while. His mount was stabbed to death with several large guns. Tominaga Tadamoto was killed by Honda Takada's sect at the moment of falling from his horse. Honda Shijuro easily stabbed Tominaga to death. And cut off his head on the spot as an intention to show off his exploits, and the whole Matsudaira army cheered and cheered to celebrate this victory.

Tominaga Tagoro's flag seal then slowly fell, announcing that Mikawa was rising tomorrow to return the star soul to Huangquan, and the death of the general was enough for the Kira army to make the decision to retreat with the whole army, and the subsequent arrival of Yamaoka Yaonao could only block the Matsudaira army's attempt to invade Tojo Castle, as for things like avenging Tominaga Tadamoto, it was not Yamaoka Yaonao's duty.

Hearing the news of the death of Tominaga Goro Tadamoto in battle, Kira Yoshian was stunned for a whole day and did not come out, Tominaga Tadamoto was the general he picked up single-handedly. In terms of intimacy, the degree of intimacy is by no means comparable to that of ordinary geneabolic retainers, and his death has dealt a great blow to Kira Yoshiyasu, and he has no idea that it will be his own general, who is proud of his death.

In anger and hatred, Kira Yoshiyasu hurriedly came to Saijo Castle to ask for help, hoping to bring in rescue soldiers to avenge his henchman, but unfortunately he could only get an ambiguous reply, because at this time, Okochi Nobutaha did not have the power to act arbitrarily, but only told Kira Yoshiyasu that he needed to discuss with the important ministers and genealists before reporting to Kasuga Yamajo Castle for approval, in short, there would be no result for a while.

Ji Liang Yishi took this special letter and threw it lightly, and said lightly: "Brother asked Yu to avenge him." But Yu didn't plan to meddle in the affairs of Sanhe at all, and he was the most taboo for the generals to reach out indiscriminately to touch things that could not be done for the time being. I don't want to touch the Kinai family, and of course I don't want to touch the East China Sea, so I'll take the trouble that my brother himself caused! ”

Honda Shimasa seemed to be very dissatisfied with the image of Kira Yoshiyasu, a gentlemanly nobleman, and said with disgust: "Speaking of which, His Royal Highness Mikawa Mamoru took the initiative to ask that I not go up to the Ashikaga family to interfere in Mikawa's affairs!" It's only been two years since I lost my troops and shrunk into Tojo Castle and didn't dare to show up, which really makes me feel extremely disappointed! ”

At the beginning of last year, Kira Yoshiyasu applied for the official position of Mikawa Mamoru from the shogunate, and he barely became the nominal ruler of Mikawa Country, but the military and political standards of this lord are too poor, and he may only be able to compare with Asakura Yoshikei, what he is good at is nothing more than the etiquette culture of the waka tea ceremony, and he can write good characters and make Chinese poems, and he also has good attainments in Keju painting, and he is a noble son who has no power to restrain chickens.

I think that Imagawa Yoshimoto didn't think about cultivating Yoshiyasu's ability to govern at all, and the so-called "Shangluo Plan" that Imagawa Yoshimoto came up with at the beginning was to lay down Owari and garrison Kiyoshu Castle to preside over the front, and his son-in-law Imagawa Shin sat in Junfu to learn how to be a qualified governor with the help of the elders of the family of Pudai, and Kira Yoshian returned to Mikawa Province to take care of the territory of Higashi Mikawa, so that he could devote himself wholeheartedly to the life of artistic creation.

But he didn't want the Imagawa family to change overnight, and the Imagawa family was evaporated by the strong sunlight in the blink of an eye like the morning dew, and everything was shattered like a dream bubble, and Kira Yoshiyasu was still immersed in the beautiful vision of the Imagawa family still being strong, until the death of his henchman Tominaga Tomiro Tadamoto called out the consternation and panic that should have been there.

Matsui Yuxian said respectfully: "It's just that in this way, will it be criticized by the Mikawa side?" It seems that the reputation of His Royal Highness has been damaged. ”

In the past, Matsui Yukan usually didn't interfere much in matters other than government affairs, but in recent days, he has gradually transformed from a specialist to an all-rounder, and his repeated admonitions have a high standard and have been praised several times, which also shows Matsui Yukan's extraordinary means of pursuing his years of experience, and on the other hand, it is the result of gradual edification by his ears and eyes.

Langgang Fufang shook the feather fan lightly and smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter much, you can't gallop thousands of miles just because you are a relative, and use the far water of Echigo to dissolve the near fire of Mikawa, if Mikawa Shouden can't understand this truth, then the future of Mikawa Kira's family will not be very good." ”

The genealogy of the Kira family was discussing the gains and losses of Mikawa's strategy, and they couldn't make up their minds about how to deal with it for a while, but at this time, Mochizuki Yoshicho received new information, so he hurriedly reported: "The latest news from Mikawa, Suganuma Dingying announced his separation from the Imagawa family in Noda Castle, and the Imagawa Execution Hall of Sunfu was furious.

At the same time, a letter of accusation from Kira Mikawa Moriden was sent back to Sunfu, accusing Matsudaira Motoyasu of raiding Tojo Castle for no reason and killing the courtiers of the Imagawa family, Tominaga Bangoro Tadamoto, the descendant of the Tominaga clan. It is reported that the first executions were 14 people. ”

“…… Is Imagawa Punishment Hall crazy? Doing so is simply forcing the people of Dongsanhe to rebel immediately! This sucks! Matsudaira Motoyasu is about to make a big profit! Ben was banging on the floor in frustration to express his strong dissatisfaction. There is no respect for Matsudaira Motoyasu, who was once loyal, in his words. However, when he decided to follow Kira Yoshi, he was still a child without a motofu, and Matsudaira Motoyasu was still a hostage in Owari, so there was no so-called loyalty issue.

The division of the Honda family into two parts is already a well-known thing in Mikawa Province, and Honda Yahachiro's Shitaka is comparable to the level of the daimyo Matsudaira Motoyasu, and now he is a genealogical minister of the Kamikawa Ashikaga family, and the authority is very great, and it is far more powerful than Matsudaira Motoyasu, who is hiding in Mikawa Okazaki Castle and thinking about the direction of progress.

It is not surprising that Honda is looking down on Matsudaira Motoyasu who is nested in Mikawa, and has experienced a series of wars in Gyeonggi, Hokuriku, Koshin, and Kanto for more than ten years, which has made the atmosphere in Hondashi's chest more magnificent, and now he has a beautiful wife and a beautiful family. How beautiful! I have long looked down on the melee of thousands of people in that corner of Sanhe, and I will inevitably treat the villagers in the past with a disdainful expression.

Mochizuki Yoshicho said: "There is another important piece of news, after learning the news of the execution of the fourteen people of Yoshidayama Ryuji Temple, Matsudaira Sakuto Saden decided to abandon the last word given by the late Imagawa Jibu Temple, and officially changed his name to Matsudaira Sakayasu, and at the same time called on the samurai of Mikawa to rise up against the tyranny of the Imagawa family, and he was already determined to completely oppose the Imagawa Shobu Temple. ”

"It's really a good and subtle calculation, pinching this opportunity to buy the support of the people of Mikawa Country, what a scheming and cunning warrior like a fox." Hosokawa Fujitaka frowned in displeasure, he didn't like this kind of scheming samurai who liked to make small movements. Almost instinctively, Matsudaira Ieyasu's motives were not pure.

Kira Yoshitoki noticed that Mochizuki Yoshicho was about to speak and stopped, and waved his hand and said, "If there is any news, let's tell it too!" ”

"Yes! Matsudaira Sadeni had already sent a diplomatic envoy to Kiyoju Castle Oda Danmasa Shaozhong. Discussing the feasibility of an alliance between the two families, it is reported that Matsudaira Sakuto has a concubine who has just turned one year old, and it seems that he intends to make a marriage contract to the princess of the Oda family. Mochizuki Yoshichi took a long breath and slowly retreated to the seat and sat down.

Takigawa Shiyi pouted and said, "See you again for an alliance!" There is a Triple Alliance in, and there is a Tail Three Alliance in the East China Sea, and there are many samurai in the alliance in recent days! What is this to do? ”

"It's just for self-preservation." Shima Shikatsu stretched out his hands and shrugged helplessly: "Who told me to be so powerful in the Ashikaga family?" Always give them a little respite. ”

Hosokawa Fujitaka shook his head and said: "This pattern of confrontation is just a false peace, whether it is the Triple Alliance or the two alliances, as long as one of them declines, it will face the crisis of collapse, and no matter how fair the covenant is, it will become unfair sooner or later." ”

Kira Yoshitoki said with a smile: "The Miyoshi Repair Hall, the Asakura Kingo Hall, and the Asai Kankuro Hall all understand this truth, presumably Oda Danmasa and Tokugawa Kurato Sasa also understand, everyone is betting on whether the arrival of this day will be more beneficial to themselves, and the covenant is a zero-sum game between smart people."

But then again, Yu Zhi had just made a covenant marriage contract with the Oda family, and Matsudaira Motoyasu followed him to Cheongju City to make a covenant marriage. In the next few years, it should be no problem to attack Ise while fighting Minon, and maybe in another three and five years, it will become a great name of millions of stone in the Three Kingdoms, and it will not be difficult to overshadow the Sagami Lion and the Kai Tiger in the limelight. ”

The retainers of the genealogy present heard that strange word, and Sanada Yutaka turned sideways and asked, "May I ask His Royal Highness, what is a zero-sum game?" ”

"Huh? Did Yu say that? Kira Yoshitoki's eyes widened and he looked strange, and after a while, he said suspiciously, "You must have heard it wrong...... Well! Definitely! ”

……

On April 26th, the Oda family's send-off party came to Kasugayama Castle, and the two young girls sat in a carriage and looked out at the bustling castle town, looking at the flow of people with countless curious thoughts, in their short childhood memories, it seemed that Echigo only lived a life of continuous rain and snow and bitter cold all year round, and never expected that the towns around Kasuga Yama Castle would be so dense.

Aichi leaned in front of the window with great interest to secretly take a look at the scenery outside, and the stalls of Shikiya were filled with all kinds of bits and pieces, and groups of townspeople gathered in front of the stalls to bargain with the merchants. There are also hawkers who carry burdens and walk the streets and alleys to sell food. An ape musician who sets up a stage at an intersection to perform ape music. A large group of children sat on the stage under the supervision of adults, watching the ape music with great interest, and from time to time there was a burst of applause.

After seeing it for a long time, he was a little sleepy, so he put down the thick curtain and shrank into the dog's arms, and asked curiously: "Is this the territory under the rule of our husband?" It's much bigger than Cheongju City, and it's really prosperous! How can there be so many people? There are also retainers who always say how powerful the husband is, but why has Ah Shi never heard of it before? ”

"This, my sister doesn't know either! I just feel that my brother seems to be very ......" Ah Dog hesitated for a long time and didn't find a suitable adjective, and said with a bitter expression on his little face: "In short, it's a strange attitude, so I've never met Your Highness in front of us!" In fact, His Highness is very powerful! That's right. Ah Shi wants to use the honorific title of His Royal Highness! ”

"Speaking of which, my brother doesn't seem to like His Highness very much, and he has never smiled when he sent his sister and Ah Shi over! When it was Guidie's sister who pulled Ah Shi and said a lot of words, Ah Shi couldn't remember it......"

When the two sisters first stepped into the Honmaru of Kasuga Mountain Castle, they realized that the town under the castle was so large, and a large number of neat buildings were scattered all over the banks of the Sekigawa River, and even the east bank of the Sekigawa River had already sprung up with many buildings.

Kira Yoshitoki is not as serious as he imagined, and he looks better than he imagined, and he is really tall. The dog is already the tallest in Oda's family, almost the same height as Oda Nobunaga. But in front of Kira Yoshitoki, he looked like a child, and his forehead could only touch his chin.

And his voice is very gentle, his eyes are always staring at the two sisters with strange eyes, he seems to be very satisfied with the appearance of their sisters, and took the two Oda sisters to the palace to officially meet the ladies of Kira Yoshitoki, Tiger Midai is a very kind lady of the main room, regardless of the body that has been four months pregnant, he personally pulled up and bowed down to salute the two sisters, and the pregnant Tiger Gomae and Xiang Gomae also said a lot to the two of them before leaving.

Yoshino Gozen pulled the two sisters, and there was a young Yoshihime who had not yet held a wedding to play flying chess together, the two Oda sisters had played this game before, and they had a lot of fun together, Oda Inu's luck was good, and Achi's luck was relatively worse, and several times he was the last to post a lot of small notes on his face, and the fear and discomfort of the first day were spent in laughter.

Simple-minded girls can always find their playmates in strange places, and in just a few days, they have become good friends with Mochizuki Yoshino and Mogami Yoshihime, Oda City tells them that they both admire the most is his brother Oda Nobunaga, and Mogami Yoshihime tells her that his Royal Highness is the most powerful samurai today, which attracts some reverie from Oda Inu.

As a bride, he was to receive a short pre-marital instruction here, and a month later the wedding was officially celebrated, with Niwa Nagahide's marriage envoy representing the Kira family being left behind to participate in the details of the wedding, and the other Oda samurai left Kasuga Yamajo in batches a few days later, returning to their homes with a covenant signed by Kira Yoshitoki himself.

Kira's family has a resigned attitude towards this marriage, and there are only a few members of the family who are also the identity of the wedding, and they have only shown a few faces during the preparation of the wedding from beginning to end, and they don't plan to invest too much experience to create a good atmosphere.

The moonlight outside the window was hazy, Kira Yoshitoki slowly withdrew with his arms around Mochizuki Yoshino's pink back, and the little woman who was entangled in his arms shrank into his arms, and let the big guy with a half-soft pestle in front of his lower abdomen dare not move, for fear that he would not notice it for a while and provoke his lust and suffer for a while, the little woman did not dare to tell the man that every time she would be made her whole body sour like a noodle, and every time she thought of it, she became more and more powerless.

Kira Yoshitoki likes to be with this shy Yoshino Gozen, and in the same bed for a few months, Mochizuki Yoshino, who has transformed from a girl to a woman, still maintains the unique shyness of girlhood, and when the two have sex, they only dare to whisper like a spring kitten, and the strength of the man who listens to the hundred claws scratching his heart is getting bigger and bigger.

Only a little half of the silent night has passed, and this is still one-third of Kirayoshi's total strength, just as he was brewing the next wave of attacks, suddenly the woman in his arms whispered: "Your Highness, the concubine has been happy with His Highness for so long, why haven't you been pregnant until now!" The concubine really wants a baby! Sister Tiger Ji is pregnant with a second baby, and the concubine body still hasn't moved, is it that the concubine's belly can't give birth to a baby! ”

Kira Yoshishi stroked the warm body of the woman in his arms and was a little thoughtful, and when he saw her melancholy expression, he said: "Yoshino's body is fine, but he deliberately doesn't want Yoshino to have a child so early!" Doesn't Yoshino want to play for a few more years before having a baby? ”

"Ahh But the concubine wants to have a baby as soon as possible! ”

"Then give birth! In a few days, Yoshino will be pregnant with the baby, and it seems that Yu will have to work harder! (To be continued......)
