A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Chapter 695 7. Escape from the cage and become a tiger and leopard

When Koheita asked, Imai Munehisa looked up, and the two looked at each other inexplicably.

"The bullet is right in the middle and turning around. How much do you think is enough?"

"Shouldn't this be decided by Huihezhong and Sotakusho?" Honda Tadakatsu was such a dead kid. When he was tying the belt of the hunter's clothes, he even tugged hard. He was not afraid of strangling Xiaopingta to death.

"Ukyo Shinohara is here in a hurry. Even if he wants to negotiate, it is difficult to raise much money in a short while!"

Anyway, there is no feud between the Yamauchi family and Shinohara Chofusa. In this huge country of Japan, except for the Miyoshi trio, everyone else can talk about Ashikaga Yoshiaki. Of course, there is also Songyongtong, Liangque Gongfang, which can never be discussed openly, but can still be contacted behind the scenes.

If you, Shinohara Chofusa, are going to Settsu to join the Miyoshi and three other people, don't talk about it. Even if everyone in the Yamauchi family knows that they may not be able to defeat them, they will definitely fight to the end.

Although people's hearts are extremely corrupt these days, if there is no bottom line between three good people and three people who killed their father and killed the king, it would be really shameless. Ashikaga Yoshiaki would not be able to do this and seek peace with the enemy who killed his father. The Yamauchi generals would not agree, and the Yamauchi feudal lords would not obey.

Now that you, Awazo, are here alone, it is not impossible to talk about it. Anyway, it can be understood that this is just the most normal anti-Oda Nobunaga force, intending to get involved in Kinei and seize power and territory.

"Since Zongjiang has come before His Highness, he must have a plan in mind! Why bother to be secretive?"

"Please also ask Your Highness to write a letter in your own hand, praying for peace for the more than 100,000 people in Sakai." Imai Munehisa knew that it was inevitable to pay, but now there are 15,000 people in the mountain outside Sakai. This is a big problem. If you don't use it, it will be in vain.

"Okay, I have visited Ukyo Shinohara twice in the palace, right? I'll trouble you this time." Ashikaga Yoshiaki certainly followed the thinking of his grandfather and father.

These soldiers and horses are the capital of our Shanuchi family to stand in troubled times. If one of them dies, one will die. If we can talk, we can talk. If we can't talk, we will fight with weapons.

Seeing that Ashikaga Yoshiaki agreed, Imai Munehisa immediately called for pen and ink and personally helped Ashikaga Yoshiaki grind the ink. It turns out that this Songyanmo was produced by the Yamauchi family in Enshu. They originally hoped that the domestic consumption power might be insufficient and there was not a big market, so they wanted to sell it to Dameng next door.

As a result, the domestic market was underestimated. That little output, thrown into Sakai's huge market, didn't even make a splash. Although it can't be said to be in short supply, there won't be any leftovers. There are quite a lot of buyers who have more money to burn. Basically there is no inventory, but people are waving their bills to buy.

After Ashikaga Yoshiaki was written, everyone looked at it and found just a few clichés. To put it bluntly, you just want to give me Ashikaga Yoshiaki some face, go find ways to make a fortune elsewhere, and let Sakai go. There are only a few dozen words in total, and even the signature does not take up a whole piece of paper.

Isshiki Miyauchi took it, folded it, and added an envelope. Now there is no need for any fire paint to seal it. Everyone's boats have been rowed to the shore, who can't see whom? How can one admit the wrong person?

It's very realistic. Even though Shinohara Nagabo entered Kinei with great fanfare, to put it bluntly, he came to make a fortune. Isn’t he a truly benevolent person who is determined to help restore the hegemony of the Miyoshi clan?

Missing peaches!

In addition to the 6,000 troops sent to Kishiwada to besiege the city, there were only 17,000 Awa troops who landed on the ocean outside Sakai and nearby. As soon as Shinohara Chofusa got off the ship, he heard someone say that the intelligence was wrong for some reason and that there was an Ashikaga army of 15,000 men in Sakai.

Shinohara Nagafusa was so angry that he cursed, and Miyoshi and the other three tricked him into coming over, agreeing that they would hold off Nobunaga's main force, including Ashikaga Hōkōkō. Why are there so many Ashikaga troops outside Sakai now? Isn't this a joke on him?

When the "tea fairy" Senzong Yi and Isshiki Gongnai arrived in his camp, Shinohara Nagafusa suddenly realized!

Oda Nobunaga was so clever in his calculations that he was able to trick the Yamauchi army into coming to Sakai from a ravine hundreds of miles away!

If not for Oda Nobunaga's ability to conquer all the heroes and dominate the Kinai, his ability to deceive others would put him to shame.

However, it was obvious that Shinohara Nagafusa was not happy with a head-on fight now, so he just got off the road and sat down to talk.

………………

It seems that he can't fight here, so Xiaoping Tai is naturally going to do another big thing.

Whether Oda Nobunaga burns Mount Hiei or not is his business, but whether the Yamauchi family stops it or not is the Yamauchi family's business.

It is impossible for Ashikaga Yoshiaki to be in Sakai, watching Oda Nobunaga set fire to the mountain without saying a word. Then his reputation will be ruined!

What do the Yamauchi family's samurai who believe in gods and Buddha think of him? What do the officials in Luoyang who just had high hopes for him think?

No matter what the final result is, the Yamauchi family must maintain a sufficient attitude and cannot stay out of the matter. At least we have to run through it repeatedly and try to eliminate this catastrophe.

The road into Luoyang was not very peaceful. Originally, Hosokawa Saime promised to send hundreds of elite cavalry to Xiaopingtai to escort Xiaopingtai to Beijing. But Koheta didn't want to show off, and now the Kinkin area was in chaos, with natives swarming in to attack the defeated samurai remnants.

If Bai Shiqi swaggers across the street and is reported to Sanhao and the others, he might be a gangster!

It would be better to borrow Sakai's connections, go to the temple, dress up in disguise, and have a simple car. They were able to receive news from the outside, which proved that those merchants and temples must have safe passages, and they would not be cut down and filled with ditches along the way.

And Sakai is not a thousand miles away from Luoyang. To put it bluntly, it takes two hours to drive from Osaka Prefecture to Kyoto Prefecture on a national highway.

It only takes two days at most by boat, so it’s not a big problem!

Back in Luoyang, the market was really depressed. Rumors spread that the Miyoshi and three generals would attack Luoyang again. Even though Nobunaga had already commanded the army to surround Mount Hiei, some people believed that he had been seriously injured and did so deliberately to conceal the news.

After all, attacking Mount Hiei is so exciting that no one would dare to do it!

Koheita hurriedly found Hosokawa Fujitaka and Akechi Mitsuhide. After all, he wanted to meet Oda Nobunaga directly. It was probably not that simple now. Without an intermediary, he might be killed by the red-eyed Oda army.

But when we found the Hosokawa Residence, the building was empty, leaving only a few servants and family members who were looking after the door. After asking around for a while, I found out that Hosokawa Fujitaka had already left Beijing.

As for where to go?

Famous!

Makishima Castle!

Ashikaga Yoshiaki took advantage of the panic of Murai Sadakatsu in Kyoto, escaped from the Nijo Imperial Palace, and went to Makishima Castle built at the intersection of the Uji River and Jumuike waters, completely escaping from Nobunaga's control!
