A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

The news is so exciting! Xiaoping was stunned in place for more than three minutes. His mind felt as if an atomic bomb had exploded and another four squadrons of B-17s plowed the ground.

Blank!

"Where did the news come from! Where did it come from!" Xiaoping recovered easily.

"Eisan Enryakuji Temple."

What should I do? Mount Hiei Enryakuji Temple? This temple is located in the northeast of Luoyang, and it's quite a long walk from Nomura's sister river. To exaggerate, there is Lake Biwa across the road. It takes several hours to swim. What the hell is the news they sent?

"Why is there news from Enryakuji Temple!"

"The Gifu bomb was encamped in Anegawa. At the beginning of the day, it was attacked by the Asai Bizen and Asakura Shikibu armies. They were defeated and killed. The Asakura army has broken through Jiangnan and is encamped at Enryakuji Temple. They are about to enter Luoyang!"

What Naya Sukezaemon said was precise and precise, exactly like that. Asai Nagamasa betrayed Oda Nobunaga, united with the Echizen Asakura clan, launched a surprise attack on the Oda army, killed Oda Nobunaga, and the world would change its color.

Enryaku-ji Temple has always had a close relationship with Asakura Yoshikage, a coin-throwing boy. Asakura Yoshikage was able to serve as the guardian of Hongan-ji Temple, and he naturally did not hesitate to spend money on Enryaku-ji Temple, which is the main headquarters of Tendai. Throwing coins in large amounts is extremely "pious".

If Asakura's army and Asai's army penetrate the entire south of the Yangtze River, they will march to Luo. With its vast buildings and mountainous terrain, Mount Hiei is really a good place to station an army. It only takes one charge to reach Luoyang, and the word "critical" is the most appropriate.

"This, this, this..."

Xiaopingtai still has considerable doubts about this. The changes in history are completely deviated from the original route and are confusing. Nobunaga is famous for his ability to operate against the Wind God and ride the wind and waves. Even if there is no door to the sky, no way to the earth, and he is locked in a valley blocked from the front and back, he can still find a crack to escape.

He shouldn't have died so easily!

Back then, Sugitani Zenjubo's sniper shot at him only hit him in the thigh. He shouldn't be in the midst of an army of tens of thousands, and it would be over as soon as it was over. Asai Nagamasa is indeed very fierce, Anegawa Saint Isoba Masaru is also very famous, and Endo Naosuke is also very famous for cutting down his colleagues with a single sword and rushing into the camp alone to kill the generals.

But was it really so powerful that he killed Oda Nobunaga?

Heita Xiaoping fought with Takeda Shingen in the ravine for almost ten years, but he was not killed in the end. He was hit by a cannon and still ran out of nowhere. After flattening Kai's stinging head, he finally passed the position to Takeda Yoshinobu before kicking his legs.

It's not that simple!

For the current plan, it is better to immediately join up with the Yamauchi army, back up Sakai Town, with fifteen thousand elite soldiers from all over the world, and then detect the news, learn the details, and make a move.

He immediately pulled Sukezaemon out of the town and went to wait for Ashikaga Yoshiaki. Now that the news of Oda Nobunaga's death in battle is spreading everywhere, the entire Kinai will surely fall into huge chaos, and only the military camp will be safe.

The Yamauchi Army was not far from Sakai Town and came quickly. When Koheita arrived at the street outside the town, he found dozens of people from Sakai and prominent figures standing in the arbor with anxious faces. Imai Sokuichi forced a smile when he saw Xiaoping coming over.

"Bangzheng, it turned out to be a catastrophe this time. The incident happened suddenly. Please turn it around. Please dismount, Your Highness, and temporarily stay outside Sakai until the storm subsides."

"Have you all got the news? Where did you get it?" Xiao Pingtai knew that these gatherings had protective umbrellas behind them and had their own news channels.

Now there is only one piece of news from Sukezaemon from Enryaku Temple on Mount Hiei, and Koheita cannot believe it gullibly. It's best to listen to these big bosses summarize the news and peel it off.

"The news came from Dr. Niki of Iga that the father and son of Sasakiden have gone to Jiangnan. The Gifu bomb was defeated near Nomura. The troops and horses were scattered and the Gifu bomb was nowhere to be seen."

"Just missing?" Hearing what Imai Munehisa said, Koheita felt that the news was very different.

"What did Sukezaemon say?" Imai Munehisa looked at Sukezaemon who was being pulled over by Koheita, and he probably had some afterthoughts.

"Die in battle at Anegawa!"

"this……"

"I got the news that the Gifu bomb was being attacked by Isono Tanba Mamoru and Endo Kiemon from the left and right, and was seriously injured and defeated. Most of the troops fled to Noshu, and a small part went to Usayama Castle."

Tsuda Soki, who was standing aside, gave more detailed information. He could even name Oda Nobunaga who defeated him, and these two were really famous brave generals in Jiangbei.

The other big bosses also talked about it. Some said that Nobunaga died in the battle, some said that Nobunaga was seriously injured, and some said that Nobunaga escaped without a trace. Anyway, there are all kinds of news. Except for the fact that Nobunaga was unexpectedly attacked on Nomura Anegawa, the behavior of the two armies is quite confusing.

"The news is confusing now, and we still don't know the true situation. Please stay calm." Xiaopingtai had no choice but to say this for the time being.

Just as he was talking, Hosokawa Zaimei, who was the advance guard of the Yamauchi Army, arrived with more than two thousand men and horses in a majestic manner. Hosokawa Zaimei, who was on the horse, saw Xiaoheita at a glance and got down immediately.

"Without further ado, have you received the news about Gifu's impeachment?" Hosokawa Saime didn't say anything, but Koheita stopped him.

"I heard that the (Akechi) Jubei and (Hosokawa) Military Department who came with the camp have all returned to the capital! His Highness was also quite shocked and couldn't believe it!" Hosokawa Saime understood the seriousness of the news.

"Then let's break camp first and let's go to the town to talk."

The assembled people saw that the five thousand troops in the mountain were in good order and in good order, and they arrived at Sakai Town. He offered to pay the army's food and salary for one month, hoping that the Yamauchi army would temporarily stay outside the town. Nowadays, the news in the kinei is chaotic, the princes are in full force, and the roads are definitely blocked. The troops in the mountain are stationed outside the town.

A group of big bosses surrounded Ashikaga Yoshiaki as if they were surrounded by a great savior and entered the town. Sensoyi, known as the tea fairy, personally came to entertain him. Anyway, he wanted the Yamauchi Army to stay.

After the generals settled the soldiers and rewarded them with water, wine and rice cakes prepared by the gathering, except for about 500 people from the Hatamoto 1st Division who entered the town to protect Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the other soldiers stayed outside the town temporarily.

Including Ashikaga Yoshiaki, they only learned about the news that Asai Nagamasa had successively launched a rebellion against Nobunaga after receiving the news from the shogunate's Ozaki political adviser who had been chased out from Luoyang.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki also hoped that the Yamauchi Army would not leave Kinai for the time being, and even hoped that the Yamauchi Army would turn around and enter Luoyang immediately. As for whether to stabilize the situation or do something more, I haven't said anything yet.

The road is in front of everyone. Now that the Kinei is in chaos, it seems impossible to return to the mountain via the original route. Should we stay in Sakai and wait for the news, or should we go to Luoyang and wait for action?
