Non-Honmaru Inner Honwan [Comprehensive]

Neither Saburo nor Akechi Mitsuhide knows what Sosan Zuowenwen is thinking.

Because they were busy going to Luoyang, they were finally hindered.

Before Oda attacked Mino, it was partly because Saburo once said to Gui Die, "I will snatch Mino here and take you to visit your father's grave", and partly because Mino was the only way for the Oda family to go to Luo. land.

However, according to Saburo's character, which of these two reasons is more important, and which comes first, is really uncertain.

After setting off from Gifu Castle in Mino, the Oda family went all the way until they reached Omi.The forces of Omi are Liujiao of South Omi and Qianjing of North Omi.Due to Aichi's marriage, Asai has maintained a good relationship so far, and immediately came with reinforcements, expressing his willingness to support Nobunaga's going to Beijing.

The Liujiao family, who had always been ambiguous, found out the news that the Oda family was approaching, and soon sent a large army to intercept the Oda army's way.At the beginning, the Oda family sent people to negotiate, but the Liujiao family was firm, and in the end they had to make preparations to face Liujiao.

"It's a good thing that Ashi married Asai."

Akechi Mitsuhide sighed when he saw Asai Nagamasa leading troops forward.

"It's not just because of Ashi. The Asai family is neutral in the first place, it's just how to fight for it. Hey, if the Asai family is won over by Liujiao, we will be blocked in Omi."

"...The Nagamasa is right here, Your Highness."

"It's okay, anyway, it's telling the truth." Saburo said to Nagamasa Asai without guilt, "But it's really great that you are willing to go with us. Do you want to go to Los Angeles together?"

"No, I will go back to Omi after I follow you to put down the rebellion." What Saburo said is indeed true, but this does not prevent Asai Nagamasa from adapting to this kind of straightforwardness that is different from any daimyo in the Warring States Period, and quickly stated that he did not have such a Ambition, abruptly changed the topic, "Then what are you going to do with the hexagon that blocks the way?"

"Oh, it's easy. We have internal support over there. If there is a fight—I want to start fighting from Jizuo City, one of the branch cities. After the fight is over, we will set up the main camp at Mount Jizuo." The fact that there is no internal response should be considered a secret Saburo, who sat cross-legged and ate grilled fish, said lightly to Asai Nagamasa, not paying attention to the latter's strange expression after hearing this sentence, "Then Pioneer will let..."

"Toyoshiro (Toyotomi Hideyoshi) and Niwa (Niwa Chohide) go together."

-

Kinoshita Fujikichiro (Toyotomi Hideyoshi) can only be considered acquainted in the Oda family at present.Self-proclaimed as a needle seller, he became an ashigaru (lower-level infantryman) of the Oda family because of the recruitment of the Oda family regardless of status. The strategy of "building a fortress on the border" eventually caused Mino's popular feeling to fluctuate. Mino's powerful ministers, known as the "Nishi Mino Three", rebelled, captured Inabayama Castle, and took refuge in the Oda family.

It can be said that Kinoshita Tokichiro Kinoshita's "One Night City" was a crucial stroke in winning Mino.As a result, he himself rose to the top and became a retainer of the Oda family.

However, before becoming a member of the Oda family, Tokichiro Kinoshita also used the identity of "Tahara Denjiro" to try to infiltrate the Oda family.It was just that Hirate Masahide, who was still alive at the time, saw through the unknown origin and had to leave. After Hirate Masahide died, he killed the passing needle dealer Kinoshita Tokichiro and took the identity of the other party, and re-entered the Oda house...to get information for Imagawa Yoshimoto.

It's just that no one expected that when all the retainers spontaneously caged the city, Nobunaga would choose to organize the army in the middle of the night and launch an attack on Imagawa Yoshimoto!Yoshimoto, who held a large army in his hand, became a stepping stone for Owari fool to become famous!

The identity of the spy has been buried with the death of Imagawa Yoshimoto, but Kinoshita Tokichiro can hardly let go of the shame of being deceived by Nobunaga and passing the wrong information about the Oda Kaike Castle—that is, being thoroughly teased by Nobunaga.Advising Oda Nobunaga is not so much to seek a road to success, but rather to climb to the position where Nobunaga can be completely buried.

With internal support, the battle between the Oda family and the Liujia family is destined not to be too difficult.But even so, Nobunaga still sent Niwa Changhide, the minister of the humerus of the Oda family, who became Nobunaga at the age of 15, with him...

Just relying on the one-night city alone, is it really impossible to gain the full trust of Nobunaga?

...Forget it, with just one hexagon, it would be very difficult for Hara to cause damage to Oda. It is just right to use this pioneer to earn credit.The Oda family's ambitions are in the world, and there will definitely be conflicts with the general Ashikaga Yoshiaki who is obsessed with being the general... The Oda family will definitely become stronger after this time.

As long as he fights hard like this and becomes an important minister of the Oda family - one day, he will make Oda Nobunaga fall into the situation that Yoshimoto had been in.

Kinoshita Tokichiro, who was thinking like this, rushed to the front without hesitation.

As a former spy, Kinoshita Tokichiro's martial arts is not bad, but at present he is just a budding retainer, with Niwa Changhide watching him, once his martial arts that do not meet his status are exposed, he will not say that it will cause him much trouble. But troubles are always inevitable.After fighting for a while to boost the morale of the soldiers, he logically reined in his horse and retreated, commanding the army to advance loudly, and then hurriedly smiled at Niwa Changhide.

Niwa Chohide, who had a higher status, did not make any judgments on his behavior, and his fair and round face was so flat that it lacked even expression.He just looked ahead, more like a pure bystander, he didn't even pay attention to Kinoshita Tokichiro's approaching words.

Compared with Liujiao, the strength of the Oda Army can be called a complete victory, not to mention that there is an insider hidden in it.After only a few moments, the defenders of Jizuo City were already on the verge of being defeated.

Because the purpose was to take down Guanyinji Castle, the headquarters of the Liujiao Clan, through Minizaku Castle, facing the fleeing enemy army, Tokichiro Kinoshita quickly ordered to stop the pursuit and attack the city with all his strength.The situation of this kind of war often changes in a blink of an eye. Therefore, after Kinoshita Tokichiro gave the order, the messenger immediately passed the order to everyone, and did not bother to ask. Much Niwa Chohide.

Just when Niwa Chohide kept silent, when the gates of Minsaku Castle finally opened and the Oda Army swarmed in, this spectator, or the young man who was just planning to check for Kinoshita Tokichiro, finally spoke.

"—There is an ambush nearby."

Kinoshita Tokichiro's heart suddenly lifted.

In fact, Tokichiro Kinoshita did not do anything to this doomed battle. He is a smart man and knows how to do it to his advantage.But at present, it seems that the strength of the defenders of Jizuo City is normal. If there is an ambush, it must be sent from the main city of Guanyin Temple.

It is impossible for the Rokkaku family to set up an ambush without knowing the tactics of the Oda family, and it was only a few hours before Oda Nobunaga laid out the tactics——What Niwa Nagahide meant was that there was a traitor in the Oda family!

And it was one of the people present when Oda Nobunaga decided on tactics!

As a former spy, Kinoshita Tokichiro cleverly concealed his resentment - he really thought who was so stupid to do this, and it was likely to bring innocent him into trouble! ——Even the surprise in his eyes is obvious and fleeting, even though Niwa Chohide may not be able to see his expression clearly when he is wearing a helmet, he still makes a surprised and calm military commander's posture perfectly.He didn't bother to justify or ask to attack the ambush, but simply lowered his posture: "Mr. Niwa, please divide the troops!"

It can either be to divide the troops for him to attack the ambush, or it can be Niwa Chohide to divide the troops to fight the ambush.

But Niwa Changhide just said flatly: "It has come out."

Kinoshita Tokichiro followed Niwa Nagahide's line of sight, only to see a group of soldiers slowly appearing in the woods——

The team that Niwa Changhide called an ambush...is so pitifully thin.

A cursory glance at the past showed that there were less than twenty people.Compared with other armored soldiers of the Liujiao family, these people looked like poor peasants who were too poor to even afford clothes. They only wore a hakama all over their bodies, and hats with tattered edges on their heads. There seems to be a faint blue color in it, but the muscles are bulging and densely covered with scars, and the whole body carries a sharp and stabbing aura that is about to materialize into a sword.

They held the scabbard in one hand and the knife in the other. What is even more strange is that their right hand holding the knife was covered with an animal skull with long horns, and the handle of the knife was connected with a heavy iron chain, wrapped around the on their arms.

They are the swordsmen in the "Time Backtracking Army".

In fact, the feet under their skirts are more like the soles of rodents, but under the cover of the lush plants in the woods and the wideness of the skirts, they were not noticed for a while, and even the unusually bright eyes and The skin also became less obvious in the moonlight and the reflection of the torch.The sword fighters hardly communicated with each other, and they seemed to have no sense of danger of being noticed. Under the fierce eyes of Oda Jun, they walked out of the forest calmly, and the body of the sword tightly held by the right hand immediately appeared in the sun. Shine brightly.

The identification of weapons is almost the instinct of those who join the army.Just looking at the color of the knives, many people who know the goods can understand that these knives are clearly sharp and unparalleled. No matter how sloppy and poor this group of strange people are dressed, the knives also prove their extraordinary origin.

Before they could make a move, the knife fighters had already raised their knives——

Then disappeared in place.

The blade of the excellent sword faithfully reflects the brilliant fire light as the doll raises the sword.Immediately, unobvious runes lit up behind the Dao Dao fighters, and the formation activated by the time-traveling army to detect information and intend to leave burst out with white light, making people unable to open their eyes.In just an instant, the forest where a dozen or so strange human figures were standing just now became empty.

Niwa Changhide immediately sent soldiers to check, but found nothing except a few footprints that looked like the claws of ferocious beasts.

Tokichiro Kinoshita hurried over, with a simple and honest smile on his monkey-like face: "It is more important to take over Minsaku Castle right now. If Mr. Niwa doesn't care, let me find out the origins of these people."

"Yes." Niwa Chohide responded.

It wasn't until entering Minasaku Castle that Niwa Nagahide, who had a shallow scar across the bridge of his nose, finally realized that it might fit the identity of these uninvited guests——

"Ninja...?"

He folded his hands involuntarily and thought.

——If it’s a ninja, then neither he killed the general in the vanguard, himself nor Tokichiro Kinoshita, nor did he do anything to the Rokkaku family...

Sending ninjas, is it just to obtain information about Oda's offensive against Rokkaku, so he sacrificed Minsaku Castle, just to provide more protection for the defense of Guanyin Temple Castle?

The Liujiao family doesn't seem to have such courage.
