Chapter 410: Stealing the Righteousness of the World
This side of the chamber Wang Tianxiao began to Zhang Luo's barbecue meeting tonight, and the eight eight-fold big snakes and little Loli couldn't wait to eat, and as soon as they returned to the Heavenly Evil Ghost City Sky Castle Tower, their saliva was all over the ground.
On the other hand, after returning to Gifu Castle, Oda Nobuko, a violent overage pseudo-lori, immediately sent someone to Ritsumasa Temple and called Hosokawa Fujitaka, who originally followed Yoshiaki Big Fox and has now become a retainer of the Oda family.
In the hands of the Oda family, there are three cards.
The first one is naturally handwritten by His Majesty the Emperor himself: "Whoever messes with my dynasty, you will cut it yourself!" "Calligraphy and painting. The second card is a card with a big fox called "The Great Righteousness of the World". The last card is that the North Omi Province that stands between the Oda family and Gyeonggi also has a card called "Alliance".
However, just having these three cards does not mean that it has been successful for Shangluo. Omi Province, which stands in the way between Mino Province and Heiankyo, is not only the Asai family in the north, but also the Sasaki family and the Rokkaku family in the south.
The ancestors of these two families are famous families that have been handed down since the Heian Dynasty, so if you want to play tricks with them and make them surrender, you don't have to expect them to fight at all.
Since you have to play a game both horizontally and vertically, how to make good use of the three cards in your hand has also become the biggest strategy of Wang Tianxie and violent overage pseudo-Lori.
When Hosokawa Fujitaka arrived at the observation deck on the top floor of the Gifu Castle Castle Tower, the violent overage pseudo-Lori was looking in the direction of Omi Province from the observation deck, as if she was contemplating something on her face.
The appearance of the violent overage pseudo-Lori suddenly made Hosokawa Fujitaka's heart "chuckle".
He knew about the fact that the violent overage pseudo-Lori and Wang Tianxie had come to Kotani Castle in the North Omi Province a while ago as a guest. Moreover, the purpose of the two of them, Hosokawa Fujitaka is also very clear.
Although it is nominally a relative of Wang Tianxie and Changzheng Little Fox, how can a discerning person believe it. They're really just strings of relatives!
I am afraid that the Oda family, which is the co-ruler of Mino Province and Owari Province, and the Asai family of Kita-Omi Province have officially formed an alliance, and the two families have joined forces to attack Minami-Omi Province, and the great fox of Yoshiaki will be appointed as the new general...... That's the real purpose.
However, now the violent overage pseudo-Lori has such a melancholy look, which has to be mistaken by Hosokawa Fujitaka. What is the problem of the alliance between the two families that is difficult to solve?
However, soon, Hosokawa Fujitaka was relieved.
"Fujitaka, prepare for battle immediately." The violent overage pseudo-Lori did not look back at Hosokawa Fujitaka, but still continued to look in the direction of Omi Province, but said the same thing very concisely in her mouth.
"The main hall, could it be that the Oda family is going to war with the Asai family?" With preconceived ideas, the words of the violent overage pseudo-Lori not only caught Hosokawa Fujitaka off guard. I was even more puzzled.
Of course, the truth is not what he imagined.
"Fujitaka, what are you talking about?" Violent overage pseudo-Lori asked curiously, she was really confused by Hosokawa Fujitaka.
"Didn't I tell you that my Oda family will definitely go to Luo as soon as possible? Now that the alliance with the Asai family has been successfully formed, the only enemies left are the Rokkaku family and the Sasaki family of Minami Omi Province! Violent overage pseudo-Lori continued to ask herself and answer.
At this point, Hosokawa Fujitaka finally knew how confused he was. From beginning to end, I was completely wrong!
"Is there anything you need to be responsible for?" Hosokawa Fujitaka thought about it. Asked with a red face. In his opinion, since he was called before the general mobilization for war, there must be something he needs to be responsible for.
He guessed it right.,Violent overage pseudo-Lori does have some things that he needs to be responsible for.。
Since the Sasaki family and the Rokkaku family both belong to the prestigious family, most of the wealthy families in the territory are also famous. Therefore. In the eyes of the violent overage pseudo-Lori and Wang Tianxie, it is always necessary to salute the Sasaki family and the Rokkaku family before the soldiers.
"Although the general mobilization order for war has not yet been issued, I can tell you the bottom first. My Oda family will be on April 15th, which is the middle of the next month. Officially raised troops to Shangluo. The violent overage pseudo-Lori finally turned her head to look at Hosokawa Fujitaka.
This is something that Hosokawa Fujitaka has been thinking about even in his dreams all these years. Now that the date has finally been established by the violent overage pseudo-Lori, Hosokawa Fujitaka can be said to be very excited, and his whole body began to tremble constantly.
"On the 15th of next month, I will personally lead my troops out of the southern Omi province and aim directly at Gyeonggi. At that time, the Asai family of Kita-Omi Province will also come to help according to the covenant, and the Tokugawa family of Mikawa Province will guard the gateway to Kanto for me. Violent overage pseudo-Lori continued to talk about the strategy she and Wang Tianxie had studied.
"For this reason, I need you to go to Kannonji Castle, the main city of the Rokkaku family in Minami Omi, together with Master Yuan of Zuiryuji Temple, to persuade him to surrender." The violent overage pseudo-Lori looked at Hosokawa Fujitaka, and her right hand pointed to the calligraphy and painting of His Majesty the Emperor hanging on the wall of the main hall.
Hosokawa Fujitaka was also an excellent diplomat, so he looked in the direction of the violent overage pseudo-Lori and saw Emperor Chihito's own handwriting, "Whoever messes with my court, you will kill it yourself!" "Calligraphy and painting, I immediately understood it in my heart.
It is worthy of the Oda family, this is to use the majesty of the emperor to steal the righteousness of the world!
Although Emperor Chihito had already been emptied of his military power at this time and became a bare-bones commander, the identity of the other party was still there. With this calligraphy and painting of Emperor Chihito, it is really not difficult to stand up for the righteousness of the world.
"In the end, my Oda family will go to Luo this time, and there will be 30,000 people on the surface. As for the actual number, you just need to know that it will definitely be more than the 'Tokaido Daiichi Bowtori' back then. The violent overage pseudo-Lori saw that Hosokawa Fujitaka was a little lacking in confidence, so she reassured the other party.
The tone of the violent overage pseudo-Lori is very affirmative, and her eyes are full of confidence. This scene fell into the eyes of Hosokawa Fujitaka, which naturally made him suddenly feel a wave of confidence in his heart.
At the same time, he was once again deeply terrified of the potential of the Oda family.
The "Tokaido No. 1 Bow Tori" in the mouth of the violent overage pseudo-Lori refers to the white-faced urn Imagawa Yoshimoto who was jointly killed by her and Wang Tianxie in the Barrel Sama Mountains. At that time, the white-faced urn raised a total of 50,000 troops and beat the war drums of Shangluo.
Hosokawa Fujitaka knew that since the head of the Oda family in front of him dared to say that there were more soldiers of the Oda family than the white-faced urn back then, it was definitely more than 55,000 or something.
This is undoubtedly the most powerful shot in the troubled times of the Warring States Period, and it is fiercely pierced in the heart of Hosokawa Fujitaka.
You must know that in this troubled era of the Warring States, the battle formation of 5,000 people is already a large-scale joint battle. With a battle formation of more than 10,000 people, it can already be regarded as a super-large joint battle. Like the white-faced urn of the year, pulling out 50,000 people to fight is definitely a rare one in the troubled times of the Warring States.
Can the Oda family pull out so many people, Hosokawa Fujitaka can only knock on the side through the look of the violent overage pseudo-Lori. But the violent overage pseudo-Lori and Wang Tianxie are very aware that the current Oda family can definitely pull out so many people.
Long before heading to Kotani City, the two had already made a preliminary estimate of the number of Shangluo this time.
Owari and Mino provinces spent a whole year planting and harvesting sweet potatoes and corn last year. As a result, the annual crop yield has increased by three to four times compared to previous years.
Although last year's harvest was not as exaggerated as the yield of 10,000 catties per mu that Wang Tianxie boasted before, it was at least close to 7 or 8,000 catties. The increase in grain brought about a decrease in the demand of the peasants and an increase in the number of soldiers.
As mentioned earlier, the Oda family began to implement the separation of soldiers and peasants last year.
In addition to the relatively special independent group of the Owari Orphan Army, the Oda family alone already had a military formation of about 40,000 people.
If you add the 12,000 soldiers of the Owari Orphan Army, just the position of the Oda family's main family of the violent overage pseudo-Lori and Wang Tianxi, 52,000 people can be pulled.
Secondly, coupled with the local wealthy clans of Owari Province and Mino Province, the 7,000 wild samurai in the hands of the monkey Kinoshita Toyoshiro, the number of soldiers in the army formation that the Oda family can really pull out has reached an astonishing 90,000.
Of course, it is impossible for all of these 90,000 people to be pulled out and raised to go to Luo.
First of all, among these 90,000 people, about two or three thousand people are the water army of Jiugui Jialong, which is of little use to Shangluo this time. Secondly, although Tokugawa Ieyasu, the great turtle of Mikawa Province, played a role in guarding the Kanto region, the areas adjacent to Mino Province and Shinano Province, Hida Province, and Echizen Province also needed to be guarded by soldiers.
Therefore, the Oda family was actually only able to pull out about 65,000 of the soldiers in Kamiraku.
However, the way of marching is to be virtual and real, and the real is virtual, and the violent overage pseudo-Lori and Wang Tianxie don't intend to be like Imagawa Yoshimoto, and directly stupidly put all 50,000 people on the surface.
By the way, after the implementation of the separation of soldiers and peasants, all the soldiers who broke out were ashigaru and archery. As for the relatively powerful iron artillery team, it is only available in the Owari Kingdom Orphan Army, which is the most loyal to the violent overage pseudo-Lori and Wang Tianxie.
In addition, for this Shangluo, as early as three months ago, Wang Tianxie had begun to study various vehicles that could easily carry large cylinders of movement.
In addition to Kannonji Castle and Kesaku Castle, which were the main castles, the Rokkaku family and the Sasaki family, there were also eighteen castles in the hands of local nobles.
Therefore, Wang Tianxie temporarily unloaded the artillery equipped with the Spanish galleon that Xue Ji Xiao Lori bought back as a weapon for siege.
Hosokawa Fujitaka took Master Yuan and rode to Misakujo Castle on a fast horse, ready to persuade the Sasaki family. At the same time, the violent overage pseudo-Lori also sounded the drum of the war mobilization order in Gifu City. (To be continued......)
