Chapter 306: Mino and Kong Ming

When Ah Shi appeared, the hall immediately fell silent, and a group of Oda retainers held their breath and stared at her without blinking, as if they were seeing fairies.

A melon seed face with delicate facial features, making her look charming and moving, a pair of clear and bright eyes, and full of her dignified atmosphere, although only fifteen or sixteen years old, but the beautiful temperament of the body, so that she has an aura far beyond her age.

This is very similar to her brother Nobunaga, both of whom have a natural and extraordinary temperament.

Ah Shi stepped on small steps, gently walked to three feet in front of Long Tao, knelt down, bowed, raised his head and glanced at him, and then his eyes were half drooping, and he said in a clear voice: "The little girl Aoda's Ah Shi, I have seen Ashikaga Yoshi-sama!" ”

Long Tao saw that her skin was white and tender, her figure was good, and she smelled a faint fragrance in her nose, so she couldn't help but feel a wave in her heart, and praised it sincerely: "I heard that the pearl of the Oda family is known as the 'first beauty', and when I see it today, it really deserves its name!" ”

Aichi bowed slightly, did not speak, got up and retreated, and sat down behind Nobunaga.

Nobunaga laughed, "Ashikaga-sama praised it falsely!" He turned his head and instructed Ah Shi: "Ah Shi, go down and arrange the wine and food." ”

Aichi got up and bowed to everyone, and retreated, Nobunaga continued: "When Ashikaga-sama expelled Kaga's Issununa, it was really applauding. Haha......"

Oda Nobunaga is also a very hated character of the Ichiko, and often ruthlessly to them, burning temples and killing monks is not less, not only known as the "enemy of the Buddha", but also because he is too cruel and tyrannical, he is called the "Sixth Heavenly Demon King" by the world.

After a while, the wine and food were served, and Nobunaga raised his glass and said, "First bowl, for you and I are both called 'enemies of the Buddha', may we be able to completely wipe out the Ichicho sect in Japan in the future!" "Anyway, drink it all.

Long Tao followed and drank a bowl.

Nobunaga picked up the second bowl again and said with a smile: "The second bowl, for this era of heroes!" Haha, a few days ago, Owari was still talking about the Saito family's 'Imakua' and 'Imai Kusungi', and within a few days, everyone was talking about Ashikaga-sama, what a hero! ”

Long Tao asked: "Forgive me for being lonely, I don't know who that 'Kong Ming today' is?" ”

Kinoshita Toyoshiro, who was closest to him, replied respectfully: "Ashikaga-sama, that is the Saito family's Takenaka Hanbei-sama, a few days ago, we attacked the Mino......" Speaking of this, he seemed to know that he was speechless, and quickly stopped and looked at Nobunaga.

Nobunaga smiled, "Haha, monkey, there's nothing you dare not say about this!" Ashikaga-sama, a few days ago, I sent troops to Mino, but I didn't expect to fall into the formation of the Takenaka half-guard, and almost lost my life! Haha......"

Long Tao suddenly understood that the Takenaka Hanbei had the reputation of "Zhuge of the World" in this era, this person was good at strategy, originally served the Saito family, and was later taken out of the mountain by Hideyoshi Sangu and transferred to serve the Oda family.

This person was the main adviser of Hideyoshi in the early period, and laid a solid foundation for his hegemony, and was called the "Nibei" of the Toyotomi family along with the later Kuroda Kanbei.

It is an exaggeration to say that he is the Zhuge of the time, from the perspective of the scale of the battle, the Warring States Period of Japan and the Three Kingdoms Era of China cannot be compared, Japan's land area and population determine the limitations of the war, some people once joked that the so-called Japanese Warring States is just a struggle between several villages for water and land, which is of course too exaggerated, but if you look at Japan's Warring States with the Three Kingdoms, it is as if the country and the state and county are the same, there is no comparison.

Kaga, Echizen, Omi these places, put in China is the scale of a county, but in Japan it is called a country, because these three places are relatively fertile, with a large population, can have more than 10,000 troops, compared with many other barren places, it is already good, many small cities, the defenders are only 1,800 people.

The comparison of praise with Kong Ming also shows that the Japanese admire the Chinese tradition, just like the recognized first fierce general of the Warring States period, Honda Tadashikatsu, and the highest praise given to him by Nobunaga is nothing more than "Japan's Zhang Fei".

Of course, in the game setting, this Takenaka Hanbei's ability is still very strong, and he is a rare all-rounder.

When Nobunaga said this, he reminded Long Tao that maybe he could find an opportunity to dig this talent into his hands.

Taking the opportunity to talk about the Takenaka Hanbei, Nobunaga suddenly stared at Long Tao and asked: "Ashikaga-sama, before the death of his father-in-law, the three major people of Saito Michi, left a will to hand over Mino to me to govern, but his descendants did not admit it, and they were frequently frustrated when they sent troops to attack, so I wonder if Ashikaga-sama is interested in sharing Mino with Zaixia?" ”

Long Tao looked at Nobunaga's sharp eyes, the two looked at each other for a long time, Long Tao smiled: "Hehe, I just took Echizen and Kita Omi, and the territory has not yet been pacified, and I am worried that the Saito family will take the opportunity to invade it, how can I have the heart to fight again!" ”

Nobunaga laughed and said, "Good! That being the case, Ashikaga-sama, please rest assured that you will go to pacify the territory, and in the future, you will send troops to Mino to contain the Saito family! ”

Long Tao obviously felt that he was relieved, thinking that he would not get involved in Mino, and finally let go of the big stone in his heart.

Subsequently, everyone chatted about some anecdotes from all over the world, and after the guests and hosts had their own time, Long Tao said goodbye and left, and from beginning to end, Nobunaga did not let Ah Shi show up again.

Outside Kiyoshu Castle, Kenzaburo asked, "My lord, Oda Nobunaga obviously had the intention of killing you at the beginning, why did you let him go like that?" If you kill him, wouldn't it be just right to take down the Oda family? ”

Long Tao shook his head and smiled: "San Lang, conquering a party is not as simple as taking down a village or a pirate, Oda is a family, killing Nobunaga does not mean that it is a hundred, and Nobunaga is also a rare hero, just killing it like this, a little unbearable, not to mention that he took out his baby sister as bait, I naturally have to cooperate with the bait!" ”

In the original plot, Nobunaga had to form an alliance with the Asai family in Kita Omi in order to take Mino with peace of mind, so he married Aichi to Asai Nagamasa, and now the Asai family has been destroyed by Long Tao, Asai Nagamasa has also died, Long Tao has taken his place, and it stands to reason that Nobunaga should also marry Ashi to him.

Kenzaburo said: "Forgive the little rudeness, if the lord really wanted to marry Miss Aichi, he shouldn't have promised Lord Oda so happily not to attack Mino just now, hum!" Just seeing that he didn't let Miss Ah Shi come out later, he obviously wanted to fish for the lord and let you beg him! ”

Long Tao laughed and said nonchalantly: "Haha, in the end, the weight I have in Nobunaga's heart is not enough at present, don't worry, I will let Nobunaga personally send Ah Shi to me!" ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked northwest.

Kenzaburo followed closely and asked suspiciously, "Lord, aren't we going back to Omi?" How to go northwest? ”

"Don't worry, I'm going to go to Minong first to meet the legendary Kong Ming of the world!"
