Chapter 1103 The strategy of Kongming today

Niwa Chohide bowed.

"The hall is wise, with Owari Mino's two countries' skills, should we keep some people in case of accidents?"

Oda Nobunaga pointed to Niwa Changhide and smiled.

"When you mention Imagawa Yoshimoto, I know who you're thinking of.

My Sanhe sister is really powerful, Matsudaira. .No, it should be called the Tokugawa family now.The Tokugawa family occupies the two countries of Sanhe and Yuanjiang. The stone height should be [-] shi, right?

Are you worried that Tokugawa Ieyasu will stab me in the back while we go to Luo? "

Niwa Nagohide was embarrassed and didn't dare to speak.If you are on guard against your allies, of course you should say something secretly.There is no one who speaks carelessly like Oda Nobunaga.

If this word reaches His Highness Tokugawa's ears, and thinks that Niwa Chohide is sowing dissension behind his back and ruining the friendship between Oda and Tokugawa's two families, Niwa Chohide will have to apologize.

Oda Nobunaga laughed when he saw how silent she was, and said.

"Mi Wuniang, what are you afraid of? Got it, I don't make it difficult for you.

My sister Mikawa is not so stupid, and Takeda Harunobu behind her is not easy to deal with.

They teamed up to divide the Imagawa family's territory, and now they don't like each other.Tokugawa Ieyasu still has to count on me to help her deal with the strong soldiers of the Takeda family. How could she easily betray the alliance?

You can rest assured that we are an unbreakable alliance, from victory to victory.

I will write to her and invite her to come to Los Angeles.You can see that she calls herself Dechuan Miaozi, which is also a little embarrassing.

Let our new Ashikaga general help her rectify her name, hahaha. "

Oda Nobunaga looks arrogant, as if General Ashikaga is a dog raised by her.Whatever you want her to do, you have to do.

Seeing her attitude like this, Niwa Changxiu always felt a little creepy in his heart.

Oda Nobunaga's lawless temperament is already known to everyone in Owari Mino and no one can provoke it.

Mu Qiang of the Wu family, the Wu families of the two countries were overwhelmed by her, and even the pawn clan, which threatened the privileges of the Wu family, had no choice but to acquiesce.

But after entering the past few days, the Oda family is about to go to the big stage of the world. Is it really okay for Oda Nobunaga to look like this?

Niwa Changhide was a little flustered, wondering what kind of future Oda Nobunaga would lead the Oda family to.

But no matter what, she couldn't turn back.She is Oda Nobunaga's best friend, and her own interests are tightly tied to Oda Nobunaga's chariot.Only follow, there is no possibility of deviation.

Niwa Chohide thought for a while and asked.

"Will His Highness Ieyasu Tokugawa be willing to go to Luo?

You also said that the Tokugawa family and the Takeda family are facing each other. At this time, does she dare to stay away from the territory? "

Oda Nobunaga shrugged and said.

"Tokugawa Miao's name is not correct, and the words are not smooth. If this name is not resolved, the Tokugawa family will have problems sooner or later.

Tokugawa Ieyasu is a smart person. To resolve this matter sooner rather than later, she will definitely go to Luo with me.

As for the Takeda family, I also find it weird.

After conquering the Suruga country, Takeda Harunobu did not move.No matter how noisy it was in Kanto, she didn't go to join in the fun and ask for some benefits.

It made my sister Mikawa feel like she was facing a big enemy, thinking that Harunobu Takeda didn't pay attention to the chaos in Kanto, but wanted to attack her.

The results of it?
Takeda Harunobu went straight back to his hometown in Kai Country, and was inexplicably abandoned for half a year. It is said that he even picked up a child and took it as an adopted daughter.

I really don't understand, what's going on in her mind? "

Niwa Chohide said.

"The Suruga country is the foundation of the Imagawa family, the positions of the Suruga people are ambiguous, and the rule of the Takeda family is not stable.

I think His Majesty Takeda's approach is good. To fight against the outside world, we must first settle down inside. Slowing down the pace to clean up the interior and digest the territory is the best policy. "

Oda Nobunaga glanced at her, knowing that this confidant was trying to warn him.

The Oda family developed too fast, and Oda Nobunaga was like a wild horse running wild all the way.

Not to mention that the Owari Mino Ryogoku samurai felt breathless, and the cronies around Oda Nobunaga were also tired.

The result of rapid expansion is that the foundation is unstable and there are many hidden dangers.Oda Nobunaga is unconventional, constantly innovating the system, and infringing on the interests of traditional samurai.

Niwa Changhide was really worried, whether this seemingly promising Oda family business would pass like a meteor.Before everyone could react, it collapsed.

This time, she used the words of the Takeda family to euphemistically put forward her advice.

Oda Nobunaga glared at her and cursed.

"The best thing to do is, Takeda Harunobu is a wild monkey in Kaishan, with short-sightedness.

In a world of great contention, only seize the day and night.One step at a time, one step at a time.

The world is so rotten that General Ashikaga can't keep his own life.Everyone is desperately expanding, if you don't grow yourself quickly, you will end up being swallowed by others.

In troubled times, whoever expands the territory first can get more land, population, money and food.There will be more troops to fight and expand a larger territory.

Secure territory?dog p!

What kind of virtue is the Wu family?If you dare to give them two less whips, these people will cling to their own one-third of an acre of land and muddle along.

Takeda Harunobu doesn't think about making progress, hmph, what an idiot. "

Niwa Nagohide was helpless, and was sprayed on the face by Oda Nobunaga's spittle.This means that he has deep feelings for her. If it were someone else, he would have been beaten by Oda Nobunaga long ago.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.Oda Nobunaga yelled, and the sliding door opened, and Hashiba Hideyoshi and the others respectfully bowed at the door.

Oda Nobunaga touched his nose and said.

"It turns out that my little monkeys are here, come in!"

The three stepped forward and kowtowed to the ground.

Oda Nobunaga half-lyed on the main seat, yawned and accepted the three people's greetings, and said.

"Hideyoshi, you came quickly."

Hashiba Hideyoshi raised his head flatteringly.

"When you hear the call from the hall, how dare you neglect it? Of course, you have to come day and night to wait for your orders."

Oda Nobunaga glanced at the three of them triumphantly, and said to Niwa Changhide.

"You should learn how to speak with her, and make me angry all day long."

Niwa Chohide shook his head with a wry smile, Hashiba Hideyoshi did not dare to let her misunderstand, and saluted her.

"Master Niwa, long time no see. The hall is just a joke, how can I be compared with you."

Niwa Chohide was so polite that he returned the half-respect, and smiled.

"You, you are too careful, so careful that it makes people feel distressed.

The hall likes to joke, you and I just listen to it, why bother to explain. "

Oda Nobunaga curled his lips, both of them were her confidantes, and he didn't want to make things difficult any longer. He turned his eyes to Hashisuka Masakatsu and Takenaka Shigeharu behind Hashiba Hideyoshi.

Hachisuka Masaki was fine, but Shigeharu Takenaka came to serve that year, and she still remembers his arrogant appearance.

Seeing that she has also become honest now, following Hashiba Hideyoshi for more than a year.Oda Nobunaga suddenly had a bad taste and said.

"Isn't this Jin Kongming from Mino Kingdom? Come today, can you also give me a Longzhong pair?"

Seeing that Oda Nobunaga was disgusting again, Hashiba Hideyoshi and Niwa Changhide looked at each other helplessly, and worriedly looked at Shigeharu Takenaka behind him.

The name of Takenaka Shigeharu's genius military adviser is widely spread in Mino.

Japanese samurai always like exaggeration, some metaphors are really hard to describe.Takenaka Shigeharu is compared to today's Kong Ming and Zhuge Liang.

Oda Nobunaga's words just wanted to bury her for fun.Who knows, Shigeharu Takenaka's eyes flashed.

She had hoped to impress Oda Nobunaga with one word, paving the way for Hashiba Hideyoshi's recent trip.Now this great opportunity comes without any effort.

Takenaka Shigeharu bowed sassyly and said.

"The main hall is at the top, although I dare not compare it with Zhuge Wuhou, but I have a strategy to benefit Shangluo.

It's just that I don't know if I want to go to the main hall to enshrine the general of the west as the Marquis of Cao, or to enshrine the emperor to order the princes. "

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Ji's eyes were all fixed on her.Especially Oda Nobunaga, his face turned cold all of a sudden.

Japanese samurai know the Three Kingdoms, and the story of Cao Cao is familiar.Oda Nobunaga compares Takenaka Shigeharu to Kong Ming, which is a joke by the superior to ridicule his subordinates.

But what kind of identity is Takenaka Shigeharu to dare to retort, how courageous is this?
It was Cao Cao's ideal in the first half of his life to be a general who conquered the west and seek a title.As a result, she embarked on the road of a powerful minister who coerced the emperor to make the princes.

Takenaka Shigeharu compared this to Oda Nobunaga, who was nakedly interrogating her.If you want to be a loyal minister of General Ashikaga's family, you still have to embark on the journey of the people of the world.

Fortunately, Japanese samurai have always admired Cao Cao. If this metaphor was used in the Ming and Qing dynasties, Shigeharu Takenaka would have been killed by now.

Niwa Changhide did not expect Takenaka Shigeharu to dare to tease Oda Nobunaga like this. This lord can drive people crazy if he has nothing to do, so you handed her the ladder?
Hashiba Hideyoshi was sweating even more, trembling with fright.Hachisuga Masakatsu who was on the side simply fell down and pretended to be dead.

Oda Nobunaga stared at Shigeharu Takenaka for a long time, seeing that her expression was normal, waiting respectfully for his answer, he suddenly became a little interested.

She asked with a half smile.

"Oh? What's the difference? Tell me carefully."

Takenaka Shigeharu looked calm and talked freely.

"If the main hall is only for the name of a loyal minister, then with the strength of the Oda family, it would be no problem to rebel against the Ashikaga family and sweep away the Miyoshi family.

But if you have great ambitions for the world, it may be more useful to keep these three good families. "

Oda Nobunaga showed strong interest in his eyes, pointed at her and said.

"How do you know I'm going to Luo? Someone told you?"

Takenaka Shigeharu said.

"If it's not for Shangluo, why should the hall forgive the eight counties of Northern Ise?"

Oda Nobunaga clapped his hands and said.

"smart people.

That's right, I was invited by His Highness Ashikaga Yoshiaki of General Ashikaga's family to assist her in going to Luojingdu to eliminate Miyoshi's rebellious party and establish a shogunate.

It's just that I don't understand, why do you think it would be more beneficial for me to stay with Miyoshi's family? "

Takenaka Shigeharu said solemnly.

"In the main hall, several samurai families are close to the center of the shogunate, and they have always looked down on foreign samurai families.

Whether it's the Miyoshi family from Shikoku or our Oda family from Nobi Plain, they are all objects of contempt for them. "

Oda Nobunaga glanced at Niwa Nagahide who was on the side, remembering the Owari countryside that she mentioned Ashikaga Yoshiaki accidentally said, and snorted.

"In their hearts, I'm just a country bumpkin from Owari."

Takenaka Shigeharu said in an interface.

"So, once we successfully go to Luo, we will help the shogunate completely expel Miyoshi's family.

In recent days, instead of being grateful to us, the samurai family will despise us.I hope we go back to our own countryside as soon as possible, so that we don't get in the way. "

The corners of Oda Nobunaga's mouth twitched, his eyes revealed a fierce look, and he said.

"Indeed."

Takenaka Shigeharu laughed.

"Since that's the case, why should we do what they want?
After the Miyoshi family was expelled, the Oda family lost its use value. These recent samurai will definitely try their best to get us out too.

Therefore, the best way is to keep the three good families, drive them away but not drive them away, and support the bandits. "

Oda Nobunaga narrowed his eyes and murmured.

"Expelling but not expelling, raising the bandits' self-respect? Let's talk about it in detail."

Takenaka Shigeharu said.

"Drive Miyoshi's family out of Kyoto and drive them back to the west, but they don't cut the grass and roots, leaving them in the west to threaten the people in the shogunate.

Then, we slowly digested the Omi Kingdom, which is the gateway to the East, and gained a firm foothold in the East.

If the threat from the Miyoshi family is not removed, the Kyoto shogunate will not dare to really turn against you for a day. This is the most beneficial situation for us. "

Oda Nobunaga pondered for a while, then suddenly burst into laughter, pointing to Takenaka Shigeharu and said.

"Okay, what a Jin Kongming, today I finally saw the demeanor of Meinong's genius military advisor.

Shigeharu Takenaka, you are very talented, I like it.Come back, come to me and help me with my work. "

After Oda Nobunaga finished speaking, Hashiba Hideyoshi's face turned pale instantly.

Takenaka Shigeharu is the power sent to her by Oda Nobunaga, of course she can take it back.At the thought of losing Shigeharu Takenaka's assistant, Hideyoshi Hashiba's heart was cut with a knife.

Takenaka Shigeharu did not change his face, kowtowed to the ground, and said.

"The hall values ​​it, and I am afraid.

It's just that I have benefited a lot from serving under Master Yuchai for more than a year.I don't dare to be greedy for credit. What I said today is also due to Mr. Yu Chai.

In recent years, the situation has been chaotic, and the relationships between the various families are intricate.I am afraid that a momentary omission will damage the wisdom of the hall.

Please take back your promise and let me continue to do what I can under the command of Hashiba-sama. "

Oda Nobunaga raised her eyebrows, so she would not believe Takenaka Shigeharu's excuse. She knew Hashiba Hideyoshi, a servant-born confidant, too well.

There is some cleverness, but the background experience is too poor, and the vision is not enough to see through the recent situation.Hideyoshi's future may be promising, but he is still only a small player.

Oda Nobunaga looked at Hashiba Hideyoshi expressionlessly and asked.

"Shigeharu Takenaka thinks highly of you, Hideyoshi. What about you? What do you think?"

Hashiba Hideyoshi's little heart had just gone on a roller coaster, and was deeply moved when he heard Takenaka Shigeharu's words.

She has already understood that this is what Shigeharu Takenaka said before, that he will fight for opportunities for her.

With the deepening of the military reform of the Oda family, Hashiba Hideyoshi is of little use to Oda Nobunaga.

Shigeharu Takenaka is using his own suggestions and wisdom to create an opportunity for Hashiba Hideyoshi to perform in recent times.

Shigeharu Takenaka said it easily, to drive away but not to chase away, and to support the bandits with self-respect, but the scale of control is not that simple.

The shogunate samurai were not fools either, they would not just watch the Oda family grind foreign workers.If it is too obvious and people catch the handle, the Oda family may not be able to take advantage of it.
