"You" Sasaki Narimasa looked at the majestic white-haired old man in shock and anger. He heard the angry breathing of Nagano Shinano Mamoru in his ears, and he realized that this sturdy old man was It is said that Nagano Yasumasa of Nagashu can fight for food every day and has the courage to tear apart tigers and leopards all his life. He once defeated two great names, Takeda Shingen and Hojo Ujiyasu, and was also a famous and well-known samurai in the Eastern Kingdom. "This is Sasanai Zosuke! You are indeed young and energetic!" Another white-haired veteran, Usami Sadamitsu, also took the opportunity to stand up and sneered: "I didn't know that you dared to question the famous shogunate at such a young age. What kind of mentality did you, Oda Danmasachu, send a foolish and reckless samurai like Uchizosuke to act as a marriage envoy? " "The envoy of the Oda family is so unexpectedly arrogant and rude!" "And the letter just now! The vulgarity of the words and sentences is simply unacceptable. If it were us samurai who heard such an invitation to form an alliance, they would definitely walk away!" "Thanks to His Highness Kimikata for his excellent self-cultivation and not to care about Owari's country samurai. How can you say Kimakata? His Highness is also a well-known samurai from Kyoto." "The people from Ueno, Shinano, and Echichu all talked about the envoy of the Oda family. Of course, they couldn't forget to show their loyalty by flattering them at this time, even if they suppressed it for a long time. The Echigo samurai also taunted in low voices. Such an embarrassing scene made Niwa Nagahide very embarrassed. At this time, he could not pretend to be stupid at this time. Maeda Toshiie and Ikeda Tsuneaki also felt very embarrassed. Their good-looking envoys were caught in pain by a wrong remark and turned into a series of chases and beatings. They couldn't help but blame Sasaki Narimasa for causing trouble by talking too much, but As one's own companion, one cannot quarrel openly. I can only blame it on my bad luck today when I went out and bumped into the Yellow Banner Star. Sasaki Narimasa was so scolded that he almost went crazy. But no one could do anything for him. Niwa Nagahide prostrated himself, bowed his head, and kept apologizing and begging for forgiveness, but he found that not only Kira Yoshiki, who was sitting high on the throne, showed no expression, but even the senior officials of the Hashiro family in the first few rows were looking at them with expressions that were neither salty nor indifferent. . Niwa Nagahide couldn't figure out their plans, and he didn't know why the clan elders didn't care about the attitude of the Oda family envoy at all, but were not impatient and did not issue an expulsion order when speculating on Kiragi. Such a level of diplomatic marriage activity From their point of view, it can be dismissed with just one sentence. For example, if you feel unwell or have busy official duties, the important ministers will do the work for them. They, the genealogy generations, will naturally understand the meaning of the family governor. After a little perfunctory, he drove back the group of country bumpkins who came from the beginning. But this time, they did not handle it this way. Instead, they went against common sense and summoned the envoy of the Oda family in front of many descendants of the Kira family. The Owari samurai had no knowledge and did not understand what this meant, but as long as Senior members of the family who have stayed in the Kira family for many years all know that Ohiroma takes the official summons very seriously. The next step is to choose a separate hall to invite several acting secretaries to accompany the summons. The next level is to summon a certain room in a quiet room alone. The worst is to have the important ministers of the genealogy generation to greet them on their behalf. Of course, this does not mean that the highest level is the big one. There are even higher summonings such as summoning by the shogunate, court officials, and even the emperor. Of course, in that case, you cannot summon as the lord, but as a minister or a low-ranking minister. Yukitaka Sanada was transferred back to the main force half a month ago. As the head of the Kira family, his status is much higher than that of ordinary retainers. At today's meeting, he only ranked behind Terutora Uesugi and sat on the right hand side of Yoshitoki Kira. The predecessor in the ranking above him, Yamamoto Tokiyuki, the elder of the genealogy family, went to Kinki to take over the new things. The other one, Mogami Yoshimitsu, the elder of the family of the royal relatives, returned to Dewa Country to preside over the New Year's affairs before the snow melted. It can be said that he is the most important lord of the family, more than hundreds of people below the two of them in this room. However, since he became the head of the Kira family, he has been sitting on the front line of Shinano Province for a long time and presiding over the suppression of the Takeda family. Although from the governor to many His ministers were very understanding and supportive of his hard work, but they could not conceal the impact of his repeated setbacks in his plan to attack Shinano. The Kira family has always prioritized merit and ability. Sanada Yukitaka's abilities are top-notch and his past record is amazing. However, since he joined the Kira family, he has always been tepid and has not performed better. This makes his performance in the Kira family very difficult. The influence is far less than that of the many active Genedai family members, but they have the name of Genedai family elders but do not get the corresponding respect. His transfer back to Kasugayama Castle this time is to relieve him of the heavy responsibility of Shinano flag, because the Takeda family has given up the strategy of resisting the Kira family and instead sued for peace in exchange for greater survival rights. Internally guarding the safety of the Suwa Basin, Kira Yoshitoki followed the trend and made major adjustments. Sanada Yukitaka and Murakami Yoshikiyo led 5,000 Shinano elites back to Kasugayama Castle to stand by, and at the same time reduced the existing 13,000 Shinano troops to 8,000. Ogasawara led 5,000 troops to guard Takato Castle in Ina County for a long time. Gongbu Jirunze rate?Thousands of troops from the headquarters went to Fukashi Castle in Chikuma County and joined with 3,000 defenders to take charge of Chu-Shinano. The former Saku County Representative will be headed by Saito Kenhiro, the new member of the Nishino family, and his subordinates will be Kamara Yukishige, who is born in the Shino clan. They will lead the army of Nishi Ueno Headquarters into Saku County and join the former military forces in the county. Guarding, the original executive organization remains unchanged and continues to implement Shinano Province's decree reforms. The Shinano Three Generals formed a situation where the west is heavy and the east is light. The military forces led by Ogasawara Nagatoki and Miyabe Tsugujun established a complete defensive circle with Takato Castle and Fukashi Castle as the core, and could rely on the two counties and the back With the support of each county, 5,000 to 10,000 Japanese troops can be recruited at any time to participate in the defense, and the Shinano Kingdom's offensive has come to an end. Given the current situation, even if the Kira family blatantly reduces the Shinano Army and reorganizes it, Takeda Shingen will never dare to go back on his word and make a traitorous move. Not to mention that the peace plan strongly supported by the Takeda family tree will never be allowed to be torn up by the family governor. Even the Kira family's set of countermeasures was enough to force the Takeda family to nothing. Ina County and Chikuma County had a large number of elites gathered to guard it. The defensive posture of seeking no merit but no fault made the Takeda family's raid very difficult. Saku County, the only one with a shortcoming, could easily obtain military support from the neighboring Kozumi County and Nishi Ueno, even if the Takeda family Taking the risk of taking down a few cities is also very likely to be surrounded by a steady stream of troops sent from the rear by the Kira family. This will be a losing battle, and Takeda Shingen will never do this. , The Takeda family is no longer in danger. They only need to maintain their superiority and suppress it. Serious turmoil will occur within the Takeda family in a few years. This is the consensus reached by the Kira family¡¯s important officials. It is precisely because of this reason that Yukitaka Sanada and Yukitaka Sanada will It was because of Murakami Yoshikiyo's deployment of the Shinano Corps back to Kasugayama Castle that he could sit here and watch the Oda family envoy being embarrassed. Yukitaka Sanada never thought that he could figure out everything in the world. Over the years, he had been trying to understand Kira Yoshiki's behavior, but every attempt was in vain. But this time he was sure that there must be special factors, otherwise The ruler of Hokuriku would not be so idle as to summon his ministers to watch the Oda family perform monkey tricks. "It seems that His Highness Kimikata must have a plan. Is it to support the Oda family? But what is so special about the Owari Oda family that will attract His Highness Kimakata's attention?" Yukitaka Sanada's eyes were weaving. The Tian family's envoys wandered back and forth, as if he wanted to see something special in their performance, but unfortunately he didn't get anything. He could only keep the questions in his stomach and frown in thought. His understanding of the Oda family was very superficial. He only knew that the Oda family was the prisoner of the third leader, the Shiba clan. During the Onin Rebellion, the Shiba clan was captured by Asakura Toshikage, the successor of the family, and took over the Echizen Kingdom. Later, he participated in the Shiba clan. The long-term war between the Asakura clan and the Asakura clan lasted until the Ming Dynasty coup before he was forced to return to Owari Province with the then family governor, Yoshihiro Shiba. However, I did not know that this Oda Danzheng Shaochao Nobunaga was the governor of the two Oda families. . Just when the Kira family's family members were making fun of the envoys of the Oda family without realizing it, and the family elders were thinking hard about the attitude of the family governor, Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who was hiding in the queue of the Oda family, suddenly stood up and shouted excitedly. : "You can't say that to my lord! My lord has never thought of it this way. We, the Oda family, really want to marry and form an alliance with His Highness the Duke of Jinfu. Princess Aichi's reputation is very resounding in Owari Kingdom, including many people below. The Owari samurai are all obsessed with Princess Aichi's beauty!" Hundreds of samurai in the Ohiro room were stunned by the roar. They didn't know how to deal with Kinoshita Hideyoshi's rebuttal. For a long time, he turned his face away in a very unlucky manner and said nothing. Nangang Toutou also picked up a folding fan to cover his expression. As the young samurai sitting behind him, he showed an expression of wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh. "Hahahaha" Saito Asanobu suddenly covered his stomach and laughed: "This kid is funny, so funny! I, Asanobu, can't do it anymore, please let me laugh for a while! Hahaha" Saito Asanobu Nobu's smile made many young samurai laugh too. Kakizaki Kageie stroked the mustache on his chin and showed a weird smile. Honjo Shigenaga even grinned and laughed and almost fell down. The scene suddenly changed. It was extremely chaotic. Several veterans repeatedly scolded them to pay attention to etiquette and not be rude. It took a long time to stabilize the situation again. Honda Toki was unable to accuse Saito Asanobu of being cynical. He could only knock on the table to express his anger, and severely reprimanded: "It turns out that Princess Ashikaga is so beautiful! It's just that the governor of the Ashikaga family of my superior is a famous shogunate. He is not an ordinary lustful samurai who has never seen the world. The beautiful women around His Highness are endless. Hu Otai and several imperial concubines are all beautiful. Just talking about beauty is a bit lacking. Sincerity? This is not a sign of sincerity from Oda Danmasa!" (To be continued)
