Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The New Year of the ninth year of Tensho is approaching, and the bells in Honnoji Temple are ringing clearly.

    In a courtyard of the temple, Honinbo, who was wearing monk robes, was playing chess with another chess player, Shikashi Toshigen, on a chessboard.

    On the right side of the two men, an iron chessboard was hung high. The two monks placed the black and white chess pieces made of magnets on the iron chessboard according to the moves of the two players on the chessboard.

    With this being done, Takeda Nobukatsu, Atobe Katsuki and other retainers who were sitting a few rooms away were watching the chess game.

    Takeda Nobukatsu was deep in thought as he watched the chess game, occasionally applauding secretly for a wonderful move made by the two chess players, while Atobe Katsuki, even though his chess skills were low, also followed with excitement, showing that he had a deep knowledge of chess.  .

    The two chess players are equally powerful. In this cold winter, there is a thin stream of sweat on their foreheads.

    With the number of moves on the chessboard increasing, the chess game is almost coming to an end.

    The two sides gathered around a corner of the chess game, carrying out a series of robberies.

    Honinbo Sansha couldn¡¯t help but said: ¡°This game is actually a game of three consecutive tribulations.¡±

    Luyan Lixuan was silent for a while and said: "I have played chess all my life, and this is the first time I have seen this game."

    At this time, Takeda Nobukatsu knocked on the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile: "There is actually a chess game of three consecutive tribulations in this world."

    Honinbo was counting sand, Shikashio Toshigen was facing the chessboard, and they also stood up to face Takeda Nobukatsu.

    Honinbo Sansha said: "The game of three consecutive tribulations has only been heard in chess records and has never been seen. It is really an unseen sign. This game cannot be played again, so I would like to discuss it as a draw."

    Takeda Nobukatsu nodded and said: "Both of them are Go celebrities. This match opened my eyes. I will order someone to copy this record so that the duel between the two will be remembered for future generations."

    When Ben Yinfang counted the sand, Lu Yan Lixuan heard the words and thanked them together, and then retreated.

    When Honinbo Sangsa walked out of the temple gate, he suddenly saw dark clouds covering the sun on the horizon, and he couldn't help but frown.  Thinking back to the chess game of the three consecutive tribulations just now, I wondered in my heart whether this was a bad omen.

    When thinking of this, Honinbo Sangsa couldn't help but laugh at himself and left slowly.

    Honinbo Sangsa didn¡¯t know that at this moment, countless people were already secretly peeping at him.

    "Your Highness, Monk Rihai has returned to the temple. Do you want to send someone to kill him?"

    Listening to the ninja leaders reporting to him, Mochizuki Nobunaga slowly shook his head.  He said: "A monk can't achieve anything. Now I have laid a dragnet around Honnoji Temple. Lord Okan, no, it's Takeda Nobukatsu who makes any move. It's already too late."

    "What I'm worried about is what other people will do after the attack on Honnoji Temple. I don't want to do what the mantis stalks the cicada behind, K¨­f¨­den. The two generals of the Imperial Guard may be the oriole.  , after attacking Honnoji Temple, these two people cannot be allowed to escape Kyoto."

    Mochizuki Shin Yonghen said.

    Seeing the worried look of the ninja leaders, Mochizuki Nobunaga smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry. I have made complete plans. At this moment, Mr. Oyamada is leading the army and secretly entering the capital. He will cooperate with us."

    At this moment, in the palace of the Imperial Guard General.

    Li Zheng was dealing with the official affairs of the waiter's office. He put down an official document, held it in his hand, and tapped the table with his fingers.  He whispered in a low voice: "There seems to be something strange happening in the capital recently. It seems that we need to take precautions early."

    Just as Li Zheng finished speaking, he suddenly came closer and said, "My lord, Mr. Yokotani Yukitaka wants to see you!"

    Li Zheng was surprised, thinking that Yokotani Yukishige was the leader of the Li family ninjas, and the dragon usually saw its head but not its tail.

    ¡°Even after I became the governor of the family, I have only seen him twice, and both times were under extremely hidden circumstances. But this time Yokotani Yukishige actually came to see him in person, something must have happened.

    Li Zheng said: "Please come quickly."

    "My lord," not long after, Yukishige Yokotani, who was covered in white cloth, said directly to Li Zhengyan, "Mochizuki Nobunaga and Takeda Nobunaga colluded to prepare to rebel and attack Honnoji Temple in two hours."

    Li Zheng's expression changed after hearing this, but only for a moment before he said: "Master Henggu, please speak slowly."

    Henggu was lucky enough to see Li Zheng again. He was not surprised at all changes, and he couldn't help but admire him at the moment.

    Yokotani Yukishige said in a deep voice: "I received the news today that I was placed in the Musashi Legion. Lord Saegusa Moriyu has been secretly killed by His Highness Mochizuki. The control of the Musashi Legion has now fallen into the hands of the two sons of Lord Chaozuki.  .¡±

    "In addition, the guardian of Yamashiro Kingdom, Mr. Oyamada, also secretly mobilized three thousand troops and approached the vicinity of Kyoto. He was obviously involved in this matter. There is also a lot of movement in the Yamato Kingdom led by His Highness Mochizuki."

    ?"Does Duke Chao Yue know?" Li Zheng asked.

    Yokotani Yuki reiterated: "You shouldn't know, otherwise it wouldn't be Lord Oyamada who has all the troops and horses in Settsu and Hanoi."

    Li Zheng nodded and said: "Although our family has a strong force in Kyoto, we are determined to be unable to resist the troops of Yamato, Musashi, and Yamashiro. Not to mention going to Honnoji Temple to rescue Lord Okan, even if we can escape unscathed in Kyoto, we will not be able to resist."  It¡¯s difficult to handle.¡±

    Yokotani Yuki repeated: "Lord, I have secretly led two hundred Azuma ninjas to sneak into Kyoto. They are all elites, and one is as good as ten. The plan for now is to take Mochizuki Nobunaga and attack Honnoji Temple with all our strength. We are here  If we have the chance to escape from Kyoto, as long as we return to Tanba Kingdom, we can tell the whole world about the rebellion of Mr. Chaoyue and his son, and attack them with the troops of the world."

    Li Zheng nodded and said: "It is not difficult to return to Tanba Kingdom to fight against the rebellion. The difficulty is how to escape from Kyoto. If I were Mochizuki Nobunaga, if I wanted to rebel, I would never deal with only Otate-sama and the rest of my family.  Capture all the retainers together, this is a foolproof plan."

    Just as Yokotani Yukishige and Li Zheng were analyzing, they suddenly reported Hosokawa Tadaki outside the door asking for a meeting.

    Li Zheng¡¯s eyes flashed after hearing this.

    Yokotani Yuki said emphatically: "My lord, all the people in Kyoto are in the hands of this person. Although the number is not large, it is still a helping hand. Why not tell them about this and let them stand on the side of my Li family. Of course, if they don't follow,  , inevitably we can only use some coercive means."

    Hearing this, Li Zheng smiled and said: "Father, I have said that both Hosokawa and his son are shrewd and good at planning. I think he is here to help me."

    "Please ask someone to let him in."

    Soon after, Hosokawa Tadayoshi came to the palace. When he saw Li Zheng browsing an official document, he seemed confused and said anxiously: "Your Highness, General Konoe, something serious has happened."

    Li Zheng did not raise his head, and continued to concentrate on the official document, saying: "Your Highness Hosokawa, the Hosokawa family is an important minister in charge of public security in Kyoto. If anything goes wrong, you should take care of it. Why are you so anxious?"

    Seeing this, Hosokawa Tadayoshi immediately said: "His Royal Highness Nomashi, prepare to rebel tonight and attack Honnoji Temple! Please make preparations in advance, Your Highness."

    Hearing this, Li Zheng stood up and said with a smile: "Thank you, His Highness Hosokawa, for telling me."

    Hearing this, Tadaki Hosokawa was startled and said: "It turns out that Admiral Konoe has already prepared."

    Li Zheng said gently: "I just found out about it."

    Seeing Li Zheng's determined look, Hosokawa Tadaki was overjoyed. It seemed that Hosokawa's plan was right again this time.

    Hosokawa Tadaki said immediately: "His Royal Highness Mochizuki's attack on Honn¨­ji Temple is a treasonous act. We, the Hosokawa family, are willing to obey the actions of His Highness Konoe Admiral."

    Li Zheng laughed and said: "My Li family will never forget the kindness of Lord Hosokawa today."

    At this moment, the two sides were standing on the same boat.

    Nijo Castle, the Imperial Palace of the General.

    Takeda Nobushige has been engaged in official business recently, so he stayed in a house not far from Nijo Castle.

    On this day, Takeda Nobushige had just finished dealing with the aftermath of the pacification of Iga, and was preparing to confederate Iga to the country afterwards, and Kawaba Nobutoshi asked him to inherit it.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out out out outssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ofss

    After waiting for the Takeda family to pacify the Kii Kingdom, they can send troops to conquer Shikoku and Kyushu to complete the true unification of the world.

    When the time comes, Takeda Nobushige can truly return the great power to Takeda Nobukatsu, and return to Erin Temple with peace of mind to continue practicing Zen.

    In this way, one can truly retire with success and achieve a reputation as good as the Duke of Zhou.

    Dealing with these matters in a myriad of ways, and dealing with them for days on end, consumed a lot of energy on his part, so Takeda Nobushige fell asleep early that day.

    ¡°But people are getting older, so they usually wake up easily.

    On this day, Takeda Nobushige slept until midnight when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside the house.

    Takeda Nobushige couldn't help but sit up and shouted to the door: "What's going on?"

    "There are many people walking around outside, it seems like something went wrong somewhere," Xiangjian reported back.

    Fires in Kyoto are also very common.

    Therefore, Takeda Nobushige was not too surprised and just said: "Immediately order the service organization to extinguish it, and also strengthen the vigilance to beware of thieves taking the opportunity to cause trouble."

    After Takeda Nobushige's instructions, he was about to lie down when suddenly he seemed to understandSomething happened, and he stood up hurriedly, opened the sliding paper door with a bang, and rushed out of the house.

    "Mr. Chao Yue, be careful of catching a cold!"

    But Takeda Nobushige's eyes widened, and he pointed his finger in the distance and said: "No, this is Honnoji Temple!"

    Hearing this, Takeda Nobushige was startled as he approached.

    Takeda Nobushige suddenly punched the door panel and said: "Asshole, it's Nobuto, Shinaga and the others, I was negligent."

    "Hurry, I want to go to Honnoji Temple."

    "Yes." Sidekick agreed, and suddenly a man hurriedly ran in, knelt down in front of Takeda Nobushige and said: "Mr. Sozuki, the area around Yashiki is surrounded by military forces. Judging from the flags and objects, it should be the Musashi Corps.  of men and horses!¡±

    "Musashi Legion!"

    Takeda Nobushige immediately shouted: "Nobutoyo, you unfilial son!"

    At this moment, the sky above Honnoji Temple was ignited with flames. This thousand-year-old temple was turned into charcoal at this moment.

    On the side of the temple's door wall, monks or warriors were constantly climbing over the wall.

    But on the other side, the iron gunners stood in two rows and were waiting.
