Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Hojo clan received unexpected favors one after another, which made everyone in the family very grateful for the trust of the Kanto public. Originally, Hojo Tokimasa thought that he would be reduced and transferred to another, and he would be thrown aside and sit on the bench at will.  They will send out force to monitor themselves just like what Hojo Ujiyasu once did.  If there is a more powerful method, you can also adopt a new heir to replace the family governor. When the direct descendants of the Sagami Hojo clan "die", then abandon the Miao characters and return to the clan. It is relatively normal to use this method to completely abolish the Sagami Hojo clan. The Hojo clan still  He was once named the Oishi clan Teru, and the Hojo clan was named the Fujita clan. Later, when these two families lost their use value, they abandoned their Miao names and returned to the Hojo family.  Based on this judgment, Hojo Tokimasa was ready to pinch his nose and give in. As long as the child in the belly of Hojo Tokimasa's wife Huangmein could become the heir to the Hojo clan's family governor, any concessions he could make were negotiable, but  He didn't expect that Ashikaga Yoshitoki would be so kind and heart-to-heart, which moved Hojo Tokimasa deeply.  Except for being given a scary word that shocked him so much that he didn't dare to speak for a long time, the special treatment given to him was far more than what a subjugated samurai family would enjoy. Perhaps this was the result of buying a horse bone for a thousand dollars and telling the imitators later on. Edo Gongfang absolutely  People who don't care about gains and losses still uphold a generous attitude towards the Kanto samurai family. Even the Sagami Ujo clan who made big mistakes can still live peacefully.  Hojo Tokimasa was very satisfied with his situation, but some samurai could not see the beaming smiles of the Hojo family. The new members of the Kanto Council, who originally wanted to see the great collision of heaven and earth, were surprised. Hojo Tokimasa seemed to gain more trust and reliance, which gave  The new members such as Koyama Takatomo, Nasu Shiin, and Utsunomiya Hirosuna who also surrendered were under great psychological pressure.  No samurai among them has received even a reward of swords, guns, armors and other weapons, not to mention that the coveted hybrid war horse is an unheard of treasure. With Ashikaga Yoshitoki's strong promotion, Hojo Tokimasa became the first new senator in Kanto.  His status is still higher than that of Satake Yishige.  Among the many Kanto samurai families who have been punished, they are unique and favored. Under the envious, jealous and hateful gaze, a new hilltop has quietly formed within the Kanto new council. There should be no problem in broadly dividing the samurai families into the Hojo clan and the samurai families other than the Hojo clan. The Hojo clan can no longer  Once pushed to the forefront.  It's just not clear whether this is a blessing or a curse.  As for the imperial companions who copied the shogunate's setup, this honorary group actually included the former Mino guardian Toki Noriyun, who was expelled by his favored minister Saito Michizankakami twenty years ago. He relied on Oda Nobuhide and the court.  Kurakage could barely regain power for a while. Later, the Asakura family and the Saito family reached peace, and Oda Nobuhide formed an alliance with Saito Michizan, forcing Toki Yoriyun to join the Rokkaku family from afar.  It is unfortunate that Rokkaku Sadayori passed away at this time. Rokkaku Yoshihide's ability and skills cannot be compared with his wise and martial father.  Toqi Laiyun's life became more and more miserable, and finally he had to go to Kanto to live in the Toqi clan's branch family. Toqi, the lord of Wanxi City in Shanghui Kingdom, lived in Laiyun's place.  Ashikaga Yoshitoki was interested in revitalizing the famous samurai family, and the good-for-nothing family governor, who was known as the "Eagle of Toki" because of his proficiency in painting, especially eagles, became a figure he valued. Toki Noriun successfully became the imperial companion, and he also received many beauties.  Although he is a direct descendant of Genji, he only adjusts his personal life as a cultural person.  Its own political ability is not very important.  In comparison, another character is much more powerful, that is the former Takeda family governor Takeda Nobutora. The Imagawa family was really defeated and couldn't hold on to Kakegawa Castle in Toe Province, which marked the complete withdrawal of the Imagawa family's power from Suruga Province and its complete decline.  , his rebellious son Takeda Shingen once again betrayed his faith and attacked one of his own people. This time he chose Takeda Nobutora's grandson Imagawa Ujima.  In the past twenty years, Takeda Nobutora's life has been pretty good. He once left Suruga Country because his son-in-law Imagawa Yoshimoto teamed up with his son-in-law to deceive him.  When he went to Kyoto, he served as the imperial companion of the shogun Ashikaga Yoshiharu for several years. The famous sword Sosan Zumon was obtained from Miyoshi Sozo during that period.  Later, I discovered that the shogunate Ashikaga Yoshiharu was really not doing very well. He often practiced sprinting and went to the resort resort of Omi Sakamoto to cultivate his body and mind. As time passed, Takeda Nobutora also felt that his enthusiasm was waning. Just a few days before Ashikaga Yoshitoki went to Raku.  After a month, he reconciled with his son-in-law Imagawa Yoshimoto and returned to Suruga Province to spend his remaining years in peace.  Unexpectedly, this peaceful life in his later years was completely broken again after lasting more than ten years. Takeda Nobutora was not a gentle and humble martial artist. The reason why he was so powerful in Kanto back then was called the "Tiger General of the Eastern Kingdom" by Ashikaga Yoshiharu.  It was because of his valor in battles that he was always feared as a leader. As a family governor, he had a very bad temper and would often scold those who were dissatisfied with the family. The reason for his exile was also the backlash caused by his execution of several family members who repeatedly opposed him.  The tempered Takeda Nobutora was very indignant towards the rebellious tiger, despite his fiery nature.His temper was as strong as a powder keg, and his nature was still a traditional warrior who hated evil and followed the rules. Therefore, he was angry at his traitor Takeda Shingen's repeated disobedience and attacks on his relatives.  Takeda Shingen first exiled Takeda Nobutora, his father, and then poisoned Takeda Nobutora's grandson Taro Yoshinobu.  Now it was his son-in-law's family and his precious grandson, the Imagawa clan, who actually took action and forced Taro Yoshinobu's wife and Takeda Nobutora's granddaughter Reimatsuin back to Suruga Country. This series of measures made him completely disappointed with Takeda Shingen.  .  "On the way to Kakegawa Castle, Takeda Nobutora couldn't help but became furious, and he sought ways to punish Takeda Shingen while leaving Kanto and defecting to Ashikagagi.  Seeing that there was no way out, the Imagawa clan ordered the samurai to send people to escort the helpless Imagawa Rei Shoin and her only bloodline Enhime, who was born to Taro Yoshinobu, to Kanto and seek refuge with Ashikaga Yoshitoki.  Probably that means that he wants Ashikaga Yoshitoki to fall in love with the young and beautiful widow Imagawa Rei Shoin. If a boy and a half girl are born together with Ii Naotora's favor, maybe the Imagawa family can surpass the Oda family and become the Nagao family.  On the same page, Ashikaga Yoshito didn't care much about such similar methods. During the process of pacifying Kanto, various samurai sent maidens under various names in the hope that Lord Kanto would like them, but how could he imitate those hungry men?  He always wanted to take advantage of women, so the Imagawa family's plan failed without any surprise.  The settlement of Edo Castle and the massive construction work marked the establishment of a new regime in Kanto. During the three-monthly Kanto review, Ashikaga Yoshitoki announced in a high profile a huge plan to comprehensively revive the Kanto samurai. The core of the plan was to rebuild the Bando Hachihei clan as a  The master's imperial family system, this huge structure once again shocked the Kanto warrior family.  " However, different meanings were proposed for the Kanto samurai on the spot. It is true that the Bando Hachihei clan is powerful in Kanto and even the world, but several of the Hachihei clan have ceased to exist in name only.  For example, the Hatakeyama clan, a direct descendant of the Chichibu Party, was succeeded by the Ashikaga clan. The current clan is Hatakeyama Takamasa, who fought in Takaya Castle in Kawachi Province. There are many branches of this party, and the Oshu Kasai clan and the Kai-Oyamada clan are all representative families.  .  Miura Michizun, a direct descendant of the Miura Party, was killed by Hojo Soun, and is currently in a state of extinct heir apparent. The actual situation is that the two brothers Masaki Tokishige and Masaki Tokitada, the descendants of the Kamisurimi clan, are direct descendants of Miura Michizun.  As a result, the Miura Party still has a powerful sect.  That is Mori Ashina, a direct descendant of the Sahara clan of the Miura Party.  The direct descendants of the Kamakura Party are currently the Shirai and Sosha Nagao families. Ashikaga Nagao and Echigo Nagao are both powerful branch families. As for whether the direct descendant of the Kamakura Party is the Kajiwara family, the Oba family or the Nagao family, the debate has never stopped.  However, the first two families emerged in the Genpei era and produced world-famous generals. The Nagao family was relatively low-key, and it was not until the Muromachi era that they completely exploded.  The current two Chiba parties are competing for the direct descendant of the Musashi Chiba clan. Chiba Yinzong returned to Shimono Kingdom with the support of Ashikaga Yoshitomo.  Under coercion, the Chiba Clan's family governor, Chiba Yintomi, has probably the largest number of branches among the Bando Hachihei clan. There are the Chiba Six Clan, including the To clan, the Soma clan, the Watari clan, and the Kokubu clan.  The Osuga clan is mainly concentrated in Oshu, Kanto and other places. The important minister of the Mikawa Matsudaira family, Osuga Gorozaemon Wei Yingao, is also the first-class Osuga clan of the Chiba Party.  The direct descendants of the Otaku Party are the Otatsu Sadakuni of Hitachi Province. The direct descendants of the Hojo Party have long been wiped out by Nitta Yoshisada. The Sagami Hojo clan currently being supported seems to have plans to inherit the clan, and the direct descendants of the Doi Party are missing.  Dohi Masashige of Yuezhong is said to be the branch closest to the direct line, and the direct line of the Kumagani Party is still hanging around in the hands of the An Yun Mori clan.  Now the Bando Hachihei clan has long been separated from each other in appearance and spirit. It is no longer the famous Bando Samurai Order in the past. After hundreds of years of reproduction, it has spawned several branches and branches, and there is no contact with each other for decades and hundreds of years.  There are many people there, and many Kanto samurai privately believe that this is impossible. Edo Lord is so ambitious that he is so ambitious that he will lose face if he fails.  It¡¯s hard to tell whether it¡¯s bragging or not.  Just when Ashikaga Yoshiki was busy working on his wonderful plan, the latest news from Mikawa Kingdom was delivered to his desk. Since Ashikaga Yoshiteru issued the order to attack Matsudaira Ieyasu a few months ago, this  A trumpet overlord who once unified the Three Rivers Kingdom fell from a ten-thousand-meter-high mountain into a bottomless abyss.  The people of the Higashi Mikawa Kingdom officially rebelled. The Sakurai Matsudaira clan, Ohgusa Matsudaira clan and many returning members of the Nishi Mikawa Kingdom who had already returned to the rebellion rebelled again. This time the rebel lineup was much louder than Kikuichikui's movement.  A few months ago, Ashikaga Yoshitoki had no time to pay attention to the turmoil in Mikawa Kingdom. Now that the series of invasions across Kanto had come to an end, it was reasonable to turn to revenge on Matsudaira Ieyasu when he had some free time.  The core military strength of the Ashikaga family is a system established mainly with Mikawa samurai, even though in this process, Kinai samurai, Echigo samurai, and elite samurai from Shinano, Ueno, Echichu and other countries were mixed.  The giant who still cannot change the Mikawa samurai as its backbone??Influence, these samurai are doing very well in the Ashikaga family of Kamizuki, and the feedback influence is transmitted to Mikawa Kingdom, which is a potential force affecting Mikawa.  This kind of power is difficult to directly manifest in the form of military conflict. The best way is to use the fuse triggered by a certain incident to unite them to attack the enemy. Unfortunately, Ju Yikui was not prepared a few months ago.  Being rushed and triggered too early gave Matsudaira Ieyasu a chance to invite reinforcements to make a comeback.  This time Ashikaga Yoshitoki invited a crusade order, but Matsudaira Ieyasu was completely unable to recruit anyone. Oda Nobunaga owed a huge debt of gratitude to him once he had done something for him. He had no reason and could not invite the Oda army again.  The Mikawa Kingdom was in chaos, and Oda Nobunaga would not go against the shogunate and Kanto Duke Ashikaga Yoshitoki just for the sake of the alliance. Matsudaira Ieyasu had become an abandoned chess piece.  The shogunate's crusade order was not issued to the Mikawa Kingdom alone, but was circulated throughout the world in the form of a newspaper. It was written in black and white that he was guilty of killing a member of the shogunate, Kira Mikawa Mamoru, and the father-in-law of the Guanshiro Konoe Maekyu, Kira Jibu Shaosuke.  Now the whole world knows that there is a vicious thief in Mikawa, Matsudaira Ieyasu. Even if he defends himself and tells the world that he did not kill the Kira family, no one will believe him.  In the blink of an eye, Matsudaira Ieyasu once again faced the crisis of being trapped in Okazaki Castle and acting as a polished commander. The Mikawa Samurai Order, which he was proud of, turned their backs on their master Mingtetsu to protect themselves. The uncles and nephews Ishikawa Ienari and Ishikawa Sumasa were in a state of turmoil.  Sakai Tadanobu came forward to coordinate Sakai Masachika and Sakai Tadatsuki, and Honda Hirotaka and Honda were shaken by Honda Tokimasa's admonishment letters many times.  The brief wavering did not collapse the Matsudaira family. More than half of the 18 Matsudaira family still supported Matsudaira Ieyasu, as did the Ishikawa, Sakai, Honda, Okubo, Abe, Torii, Naito and other powerful families.  Loyal to Matsudaira Ieyasu, he still has three thousand fighting soldiers who have not yet rebelled. This is the last strength of the Matsudaira family.  Since the crusade order was issued last autumn, countless small-scale competitions broke out in the long winter from Yonglu 4th to Yonglu 5th.  There are seven or eight small-scale battles involving hundreds of people almost every day, and battles involving thousands of people occur every now and then. Kikuichi's remnants Arakawa Yoshitsugu and Nishio Yoshitsugu also take the opportunity to regain the territory taken away by Matsudaira Ieyasu.  It's just that their sneaky behavior can only be regarded as a side effect. The war in Mikawa basically has little to do with the strong external force Kiku Ikui. These two Kira clan members did not play the role of commanding the generals of the expeditionary army. The two idiot armies  Slightly too poor and too low in charisma, almost no prestige.  In the end, they still failed to win the position of general. The Three Rivers Crusade was still carried out in the form of everyone fighting on their own. These two idiots simply indulged in the small profits, which was really a failure.  Faced with the domineering style of Ashikaga Yoshitoki, most of the samurai of the Mikawa Matsudaira family closely united and fought bravely under the banner of Matsudaira Ieyasu, defeating the attacks of the Mikawa Crusade Army on Okazaki Castle one after another. The war in Mikawa Kingdom never stopped for a moment.  Matsudaira Ieyasu was really afraid until news came from the direction of Minami-Shinano that Ogasawara Nagato's five thousand intervention troops were on the move at any time.  If the previous actions against Mikawa Kingdom could only be regarded as a small fight in Mikawa Kingdom, then Ogasawara Nagato led the army over the difficult mountain road, from the winding mountain road in Shimoina County to overcoming numerous obstacles, and passed through the new  Nogochi entered the northern part of Shitara County and then broke into Mikawa Country through Nagashino, which showed that Ashikaga Yoshitoki really planned to take action against himself.  Today is an army of five thousand led by Ogasawara Nagato, and tomorrow it may be an army of ten thousand led by some general. Once the Kanto Ashikaga Army is allowed to break into Mikawa Kingdom.  Even Ashikaga Yoshiteru, the general who conquered the barbarians, could not drive away this powerful army. Counting on Oda Nobunaga's in-laws and allies to persuade them to leave was just as nonsense as when Ashikaga Yoshiki persuaded Oda Nobunaga not to interfere with Mikawa Kingdom.  Matsudaira Ieyasu locked himself in the castle tower for three days and did not leave the house. Amidst the urgings of the family members outside the door, he clenched his fists and said bitterly: "Is escape the only option? My life is really  What an unexpected failure! Grandfather, please tell me what Ieyasu should do! Are you really going to leave your homeland?" The anxious footsteps of the samurai outside the door came, and Matsudaira Ieyasu was very familiar with this footsteps.  .  Soon he thought of the short and feisty Honda Tadakatsu, as well as the brave Honda Hirotaka, Honda Duji, Sakai Tadatsuki, Okubo Tadatoshi and others, and the expression on his face became very wonderful.  The Matsudaira retainers are not the top samurai group of this era. They don¡¯t have many characteristics except being relatively loyal and brave.  They are not as brave as the Kai samurai nor as sturdy as the Echigo samurai. They can be ranked the strongest in Tokaido, but they are not very conspicuous in Kanto. What's more, the essence of the Mikawa samurai has been taken away by Ashikaga Yoshitoki, and the Matsudaira retainers cannot be replenished.  The strength has been unable to improve. The Matsudaira family has finally accumulated this little wealth and Matsudaira Ieyasu treats it like a treasure. But now he has to face an embarrassing choice.  He can guess Ashikaga YoshitokiHow deep was his hatred for himself? What little money the Mikawa Kira family had was burned down in a fire. One great-uncle, one uncle, one brother, plus a large number of family elders all died, plus the samurai maids with the same surname who died all over the city.  As many as hundreds of people, this deadly feud can be extremely deep. If Ashikaga Yoshitoki is caught, I don't know how cruel methods will be used to deal with him.  Matsudaira Ieyasu said bitterly: "Although I am still unwilling to admit my weakness, if I don't escape at this time, maybe there will be no chance to escape in the future! On the other hand, running away is also a good choice. As long as Ieyasu survives,  One day I will return to Mikawa Country and take back what belongs to me! I will definitely bear in mind the shame that Ashikaga Prime Minister gave me today!¡± After repeated consideration, Matsudaira Ieyasu made a bold decision, he wanted to give up!  The territory of Mikawa Kingdom fled Okazaki Castle with three thousand troops, and fled to Owari Kingdom to seek refuge with Oda Nobunaga. This was a crazy decision he made when he was forced to a dead end. This was far better than hiding in Okazaki.  The city was nominally subordinated to the Oda family more completely.  It is also the only way to force Ogasawara to retreat for a long time.  As long as he is willing to surrender his identity and take the initiative to join Oda Nobunaga, dragging the protective Oda family into the whirlpool of the Mikawa dispute, Ogasawara will lose moral support when he attacks Mikawa in the name of conquering Matsudaira Ieyasu.  When Sando controls Mikawa Kingdom, he has to face the attacks from both sides of the Takeda family and the Oda family, and he must always be wary of Matsudaira Ieyasu secretly returning to Mikawa Kingdom to stir up trouble.  "This cunning Matsudaira Ieyasu ran so fast. What should I do now?" Ogasawara Nagatoki was only a general of a town and not a general with military decision-making power. When he defeated Matsudaira Ieyasu, he took the opportunity to seize the territory.  It's the autumn breeze.  No matter which side of the warriors there is no reason to blame him.  Fujisawa Yorikachi thought for a while and said: "How about we wait and pretend not to know how to capture Okazaki Castle by force?" Todoroki Sadahou grinned and said: "I'm afraid that won't work! We'll wait for the military strength.  While we were still trekking in the valley of Shitara County, some time had passed since the news that Matsudaira Ieyasu had escaped. It would take at least two or three days for me to reach Okazaki Castle. By then, the entire Mikawa Kingdom  Everyone in Tokaido should know this news!¡± Ogasawara stared at the simple map for a long time and frowned. No matter how good his plan was, he could not keep up with the force majeure of the changing situation.  Matsudaira Ieyasu's escape from Owari made their military situation very embarrassing. Whether to continue pursuing or to turn around and return to the army regardless, became a difficult problem before Ogasawara Nagatoki.  If you look at the map, you will know that Shinano Province and Owari Province are not bordering each other. The mountain road from Minami Shinano to Higashi Mikawa is very difficult to walk. Then from Higashi Mikawa through Nishi Mikawa and into Owari Province, the road is quite a long loop.  Going to Owari State without support or protection due to a long supply line was simply a suicide attempt, and Oda Nobunaga was still an in-law and ally of Ashikaga Yoshitoki.  Even if Ogasawara had the guts to attack Owari, he would be the one to take the blame for a diplomatic dispute.  Matsudaira Ieyasu's escape from Mikawa Country gave the Minami-Shinano Army no excuse to attack Mikawa Country. Just when Ogasawara was hesitating for a long time, he received a piece of news that made people laugh or cry. Arakawa Yihiro and Nishio Yoshiji took advantage of Matsudaira Ieyasu's escape.  Seizing Okazaki Castle and all the territory of the Matsudaira family, he then sent constant messages to Ogasawara Nagatoki telling him that Matsudaira Ieyasu had fled, and that he could now return to Shinano Country by the same route without worrying about the safety of Mikawa Country. His words seemed to  It was as if he was afraid that Ashikaga Yoshitoki would send him to seize the territory.  Ogasawara was very embarrassed by this drama for a long time.  Baba came all the way to the Three Rivers Country to help out just to get some benefits, but now that he hasn¡¯t gotten any benefits, he has driven away these five thousand hard-working soldiers, and he is not even willing to pay for a sip of water or a meal. He almost  The Minami-Shinano Legion was collectively angry.  "What these two bastards did, I will always report to His Highness Kikata!" Ogasawara was so angry that he didn't speak for a whole day. In the evening of that day, he ordered the entire army to stop advancing. Until now, the Minami-Shinano Army is still there.  It's really bad to continue to stay.  Not to mention that we can't rob the walled cities with lords in Dongsanhe. The close relatives of the lords of these walled cities may serve as generals under the Duke of Guandong. Going to attack these cities is asking for trouble.  The only territory that could be grabbed was taken away by Arakawa Yoshitsune and Nishio Yoshitsugu, and the Minami-Shinano Army Corps had little meaning in staying.  Being stubborn and insisting on staying and not leaving would defeat the original purpose of Ashikaga Yoshiki's order. When Arakawa Yoshihiro and Nishio Yoshiki file a complaint to embarrass the governor, it will even arouse the strong dissatisfaction of the shogun Ashikaga Yoshiteru.  , the Kanto Duke's succession order specifically stated that no one could set foot on the Tokaido Road without an edict.  This article does not only refer to the Tokaido but warns Ashikaga Yoshitoki that on the basis of his original territory, he will not care about the Eight Kingdoms of Kanto and the shogunate in those remote places, but he must never take any step west of these territories. It does not belong to  The Hokuriku Echizen Country under the jurisdiction of the Kanto Kingdom is even more forbidden to enter.? It was okay for Ashikaga Yoshitoki to take advantage of the opportunity to avenge his family and enter Mikawa Kingdom. Even if he took the opportunity to seize a piece of territory and pass it on to his nephew Kira Manjumaru, it would not be a big problem. But there is still Arakawa in Mikawa Kingdom.  The existence of Yihiro and Nishio Yoshiji, these two bastards who failed to achieve anything but failed, were definitely not talented in fighting, but their talent in grabbing territory was first-rate.  Arakawa Yoshihiro even shamelessly told his nephew Nishio Yoshitsugu that since he was young, he should let him take charge of the territory of Mikawa Kingdom for a few years before handing it over to him. His words seemed to indicate that he wanted to adopt Nishio Yoshitsugu, but in fact  He also has two adult sons who are staring at Nishio Yoshiji's territory with wide eyes and shining eyes.  Nishio Yoshitsugu is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. He has served as executive officer with Oda Nobunaga for more than ten years, and his ability to implement internal affairs is unknown for the time being.  At least his ability to deal with things and his ability to play tricks are very good. Being able to contend with Arakawa Yihiro for so long without falling behind shows that he is an excellent master of tricks.  These two bastards who were amateurs in foreign wars and experts in civil wars happened to be direct descendants of the original Tojo Kira family. One was Manzhumaru's great-uncle and the other was an uncle. They were the first to seize the territory left by the Matsudaira family, leaving little Li Yuan  What reason does this foreign minister have to continue to stay for a long time? If there is no reason, then he has to retreat, even if he is unwilling to do so, he has to leave. ?¡­ ?Half a month in the vast space of Qingzhou City.  Since seeing Matsudaira Ieyasu appear during the evaluation meeting in the morning, Oda Nobunaga's butt has never left this seat. He was suddenly in a very unhappy mood when any of his allies suddenly turned white. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot as he listened to Matsudaira Ieyasu.  He spoke in an emotional and mellow tone, and cursed in his mind: "This bastard Takechiyo will cause trouble for my family, and insists on dragging my family into the mess of Mikawa Country. He is really a bastard with bad intentions!" Matsudaira Ieyasu certainly has bad intentions.  of.  Oda Nobunaga was by no means as innocent and helpless as he appeared on the surface. He had long been covetous of the Mikawa samurai, the most powerful soldier in Tokaido, and his weak Owari soldiers spent a lot of effort to defeat Mino.  It was still extremely difficult, and he often fantasized that with a large group of brave Mikawa samurai, they might be able to easily take over Mino Country.  While Oda Nobunaga secretly scolded Matsudaira Ieyasu for finding something for him to do, he secretly wondered whether this was the legendary wish coming true, or whether it would be more appropriate to call him sleepy and meet his pillow.  As for the possibility that eating it would cause indigestion or be forced to vomit it out by Ashikaga Yoshitoki, Oda Nobunaga never considered it in his logical thinking. He, Oda Saburo, believed that he was no worse than Ashikaga Kamisaburo.  How many.  As early as more than ten years ago, he had said that only he, Oda Saburo and Kira Saburo, were the most special in the world. Only these two could achieve their ambition to dominate the world and even conquer the Seven Seas. It has only been more than ten years since this prophecy came to fruition.  Halfway through, Kira Saburo emerged from his cocoon and turned into a butterfly, transforming into Ashikaga Kamizisaburo. Sitting in the Kantobei Continent, he became the first samurai of the Eastern Kingdom.  "And I, Oda Saburo Nobunaga, can definitely do it! I believe that I can touch my own destiny. I have clearly felt the fiercely beating pulse of this era. My era is coming! This opportunity  Even if Matsudaira Ieyasu defected to our family, this would be an important change in changing the Tokaido. I believe Ashikaga Kamisuzaburo didn't realize that this would happen! But that's fine, my family can tell him confidently that the world will be divided by Mikawa!  "Oda Nobunaga's middle-class temper suddenly broke out, and he waved his hand and said domineeringly: "Takechiyo, please stay! I need a powerful warrior like you to help my Oda family accomplish its great cause. These days, I have been thinking hard about a name.  No. As long as we seize Inabayama Castle, we will take action! As for the town master, I will leave it to my family In short, Takechiyo will definitely do nothing wrong by following my family!" "Thank you for your protection, brother, Ieyasu.  A warrior of kindness dares not forget it." A flash of light flashed in Matsudaira Ieyasu's eyes.  He immediately changed to an excited expression and bowed down respectfully, pretending to be sincerely convinced and looking forward to the answer with great joy. The excited Oda retainers did not notice this short change at all.  "This world will change in the hands of my Oda family! The one who protects the world and maintains the family is the one who will always be blessed! This Eongroku year is the era when our Oda family will rise!" Oda Nobunaga suddenly stood up  He stood up, clenched his fists, and stared at the afterglow of the setting sun setting between the distant mountains. His whole body seemed to be rimmed with gold by the sunlight, and the whole room of warriors were stunned.  Oda Nobunaga walked to the corridor in high spirits, pointed to the warm sunset and said: "Look, everyone! That is the afterglow that symbolizes the end of the old era. What rises early tomorrow morning is the glory that symbolizes the new era! Please hold tight, everyone."  Follow the banner of our family and strive to be the leader of the new era!¡± There was an uproar in the room. Maeda Toshiie and Ikeda Tsuneaki shouted excitedly, while Niwa Nagahide and Sasa were more calm.  Cheng Zheng, ZuoNobumori Shibata, Katsuie Shibata and others also looked very interested. It seemed that not a single samurai in the whole room stood up to question the governor's words.  Kinoshita Hideyoshi's face flushed with excitement, he jumped up, clenched his fists and shouted loudly: "New era! That is a new era that belongs to me! I, Hideyoshi, will follow my lord and become a powerful samurai in the world. That belongs to our Owari samurai."  "New Era!" "New Era Onboard! Oh oh" Oda Nobunaga put the folding fan in the collar behind his neck, stood on the corridor with his arms folded, and looked back at the hall with interest.  The retainers were laughing and making noise like children celebrating the New Year. Matsudaira Ieyasu suddenly had an illusion at this moment. Oda Nobunaga's whole person was shrouded in golden light, and the golden light shone like a statue of god, exuding endless energy.  Divine power.  "It seems that I made the right choice this time! Let's see how my brother becomes the leader of the new era!" A faint smile appeared on Matsudaira Ieyasu's lips, and he immediately stood up and danced and cheered with the singing and dancing samurai in the hall.  , at this moment, he seemed to have returned to his childhood more than ten years ago, laughing and making trouble happily.  Oda Nobunaga stared at the sunset on the horizon in a daze, and after a while he suddenly murmured to himself: "In the new era, I, Oda Saburo, will build a new era of my own Ashikaga Kamizisaburo, I will be waiting for you in the near future.  It's coming! You will definitely come" PS: The last update has 8K words, and today's 4th update has 19,000 words. Now I have finally fulfilled my previous promise.
