Non-Honmaru Inner Honwan [Comprehensive]

Chapter 236

Wise Mitsuhide who interpreted what is called "black under the lamp" by himself, of course, no matter how hard he thought, it was impossible to guess the purpose of the time retrograde army in front of him early in the morning.

This time, thinking about it was fruitless, and Akechi Mitsuhide could only sigh inwardly, and gave up thinking about the time-traveling army.This time, although the sword men told Saburo about the change of the time-traveling army, apparently the sword men did not notice anything else. Akechi Mitsuhide was not at the scene at the time, and there was no way to deduce more effective information from the report, so he could only choose temporarily Set aside these unknown enemies, leave them to the sword man who can predict their movements, and hope that the next time the two sides confront each other, he may learn more.

This kind of ignorance of the enemy is extremely rare for Akechi Mitsuhide, not to mention that when it comes to the time-traveling army and the "Honnoji Change", the swordsmen are always on guard against him.With no starting point and no help, he looked at Saburo's unaware face. Even though he felt uneasy because of this, he remained calm about the situation and turned to another topic calmly.

"Then, since you gave the Kuroda officer and soldier Wei Xiaotaka as a gift of 'pressing and cutting', did you accept the request of the Kodera family?"

"That's right. It's too early to say that, but Maoli is there, and the Sanyang and Sanyin regions must be attacked." Saburo replied, "And Guanbingwei speaks very well! Yes! Someone as talented as Xiaoguang!"

"Then I'm here to thank you for your compliment." Akechi Mitsuhide said helplessly, "It's true that the time is a bit early, but everything should be planned as soon as possible, at least there will be a little more possibility of contingency in the future."

"After all, it seems that the meeting with Maori may be earlier than expected."

The Kodera family invested in Oda, and the direct result was that in April of the fourth year of Tianzheng, the Maori navy attacked Harima, which accelerated Saburo's invasion of the Sanyang Sanyin area-however, this kind of thing is still unknown after one year. There were no omens, at least Terumoto Mori hadn't met Ashikaga Yoshiaki again at this time and was awarded the paulownia pattern by the latter.Even if they learned that the Kodera family did not submit to him but fell into the arms of Oda Nobunaga, the Mori family would not be able to take any action immediately.

Not as powerful as the Oda family, the Kodera family where Takataka Kuroda belongs is weak, and it is wishful thinking to want to be wise and protect himself.The choice between Oda, who has shown a clear intention to expand, and Mori, who is already the overlord of the Sanin Sanyo area, depends entirely on Kuroda Takataka's strong advocacy. There is a "pressing and cutting" thing happening.Knowing that in the confrontation between Oda and Mori, Harima must bear the brunt of the battlefield, Kuroda Takataka seized the time he stayed in Gifu, and once again stepped up his contacts with Hashiba Hideyoshi.

His behavior was naturally noticed by Akechi Mitsuhide.But no matter what kind of evaluation Akechi Mitsuhide has on Kuroda Takataka, it is impossible for him to restrict other people's behavior based on his personal likes and dislikes. When Hashiba Hideyoshi gained more and more rights because of his military exploits, this appearance The shortcomings of a man like an ape due to his birth will always be made up for one day.Akechi Mitsuhide's foothold in the Oda family is also unexpectedly difficult. Even if he wants to ensure that he has the strength to limit the development of Hashiba Hideyoshi, it is impossible for him to prevent others from taking refuge in Hashiba Hideyoshi at this time.

Fortunately, Kuroda Takataka did not stay in Gifu for long, and soon set off for Harima.Although his increasingly frequent correspondence with Hideyoshi Hashiba made Mitsuhide Akechi a little uncomfortable, but seeing that Takataka Kuroda was still the elder of Kodera at this time, and he would focus most of his attention on the stability of Harima, Mitsuhide Akechi still did not Too much focus on this young man.And after Kuroda Takataka departed, the envoy from Uesugi Kenshin arrived in Gifu on June [-]th and met Saburo.

"……what do you say that is"

"Yamasaki Sanyanagi, Your Highness Nobunaga."

It was the person whom Mimaki Kei, who was gifted "Tsurumaru Kuninaga" by Saburo after returning to Gifu because of the convenience of Uesugi to persuade Asakura to withdraw his army, had a brief relationship with him when he was in Uesugi's house.

Uesugi's alliance with Oda was short-lived and not solid.Although Uesugi Kenshin also helped when Takeda Shingen sent troops and even Takeda Katsuyori sent troops to attack the Oda forces before, but it was different from the alliance between Tokugawa and Oda——Tokugawa Ieyasu was weak and convenient because of his semi-dependence The semi-alliance and the Oda family advance and retreat together; but the essence of Uesugi Kenshin is different from the Oda who yearns for the world, and the two are destined to run counter to each other.Because of this, although the Uesugi family’s contacts with the Oda family in recent years are not rare, they are not very harmonious. Even the opportunity to communicate with Saburo on the initiative is rare, and such a special dispatch has a little involvement with the Oda family. It is even more unusual for people from all over the world to come to Gifu.

Of course, what Akechi Mitsuhide could notice, Saburo couldn't notice at all.Therefore, he did not show any special expression after the name was listed in the Yamazaki Shunyanagi newspaper. He just said a bland "Oh" to show that he knew, and then asked straightforwardly: "Why did Mr. Uesugi send you here?" something?"

He had never come into contact with someone like Saburo before, and Yamazaki Shunyanagi thought that his intention for coming had been seen through in an instant.In his heart, he secretly marveled at the terrifying power of observation of the Oda family governor, and he also breathed a sigh of relief about whether he could achieve the desired result on this trip and return to Echigo safely.

The polite words had already died, and he didn't dare to challenge the patience of the rumored cruel Oda Nobunaga, so he could only bite the bullet and say the unimportant things first in a flat tone: "— —Previously, the Oda family sent the ninja "Five Tigers" to the Uesugi family, and now they are very popular with Kenshin-sama. Would His Highness Nobunaga want to part with him and give him to Kenshin-sama?"

Saburo: "..."

Saburo: "What, it turns out that the Five Tigers are retreating!"

The 42-year-old young man, who does not look like that at all, also looks lazy when he is sitting upright. After so many years of painstaking advice from his retainers and the careful advice from Akechi Mitsuhide, he is much more presentable when meeting guests, but That kind of unrestraint that comes from the bones still pops up from time to time.When Yamazaki Shunyusai mentioned the retreat of the five tigers, his shoulders, which were still upright, collapsed all of a sudden, and what he said also had a childish complaint - of course, in the ears of the Uesugi family envoy, This contains a full taste of irony and contempt.

"Is Xiao Tui very popular with Uesugi-san? That's not bad! It's so nice to be liked by an idol!"

The most obvious impression of the Five Tigers is that their eyes are full of tears. After the Five Tigers retreated to Uesugi Kenshin, they were not worried at all, and even because the letter they sent stated that the five cubs of the short sword boy were in Uesugi’s parents. Seriously, he sent a sum of money to the Uesugi family in the name of "food expenses"-for the request conveyed by Yamazaki Shunyanagi, Saburo was not at all angry because the other party's words implied that the other party seemed to be treated well at the Uesugi family.

Rather, because the five tigers retreat always show their yearning for Uesugi Kenshin, and Uesugi Kenshin is indeed respected by people in this era, whether it is military ability or character, Saburo also has quite a sense of Uesugi Kenshin That’s right, before Yamazaki Shunyanagi opened his mouth, he still had a rare expectation of what Kenshin Uesugi would bring… However, even Saburo, who had a clear mind like Saburo, did not expect that the first thing the other party said was not the alliance between Oda and Uesugi The problem is not the question of whether the five tigers will retreat or not.

... No, of course it wasn't Saburo who suddenly had a political mind.But before Yamazaki Shunyanagi talked about the five tigers retreating, Saburo almost forgot about the shy and introverted Fu Sangshen.

It's like Yizheng, who only appeared after the five tigers retreated and left Gifu, completely unaware that he still has a younger brother living outside.Because of the particularity of Oda Iehonmaru, the swordsmen who are either busy fighting the time-traveling army or studying history have no time to miss their companions who went out—even if they have, they don’t have more free time to confide in each other’s memories.In comparison, the life of the five tigers in Echigo is much more leisurely than that in Gifu.Therefore, after Wuhu retreated to Echigo Uesugi's house, his name rarely appeared in Oda's house except when he sent letters.

In a sense, it can also be said to be super pitiful, and the five tigers retreated.

Was reminded of the existence of the Five Tigers by Yamazaki Shunyanagi, and Saburo immediately became interested, and before the other party could speak again, he asked enthusiastically: "How is Xiao Tui there, how old is the tiger?"

Thinking of the white tiger that he had glimpsed at Uesugi's house before, and that could hunt and prey an adult without difficulty, Yamazaki Shunyusai only felt a bitter taste in his mouth.He listened to Saburo's happy question, only felt that the other party cared about what he said, implying that all the whereabouts of the five tigers were under control, and laughed at the naivety of the Uesugi family who wanted to take other people's ninjas for their own use idea.In particular, Oda Nobunaga nonchalantly bypassed him asking for the Five Tigers' Retirement, and instead asked about the current situation of the Five Tigers' Retirement, which made him feel that Saburo had never considered abandoning the Koga ninja, which made Yamazaki even more Zhuan Liusai felt his heart be stuffy.

The five tigers have retired, and they have stayed at Uesugi's house for a long time.

Once he is allowed to go back to Oda, who knows how much news he will tell Nobunaga Oda, and who knows how much news the Five Tigers have heard during this period of time!

"Five Tigers are loved by Lord Kenshin at Uesugi's house, and Master Kenshin pays attention to him when he sits and lies. Lord Kenshin treats Five Tigers as close as he treats his nephew." I already feel that the first target is not good. It may be completed, but Yamazaki Shunyanagi is still making the final attempt, "Although in the Oda family, you have a precedent for promoting Kusaichi to a samurai. But Koka ninjas are still different after all, let alone the five tigers retired His appearance is also different from ordinary people——Master Kenshin intends to promote Wuhu Tui to a lower-level warrior, are you willing to do so?"

After finishing the words of persuasion in one breath, Yamazaki Shunyanagi lowered his head, waiting for Saburo's reply.

"Uh, a samurai," Saburo said blankly, "Making Xiao Tui a samurai, it seems like a good idea, but—"

"Even if I agree, it's impossible for Xiao Tui to agree. Because they are my 'swords'."

The three-day cosplay costume arrived last night, so I happily tried it on after dinner and then coded it——

…and then I wore it for two hours.

It's really hard to wear your clothes, Sankayue.

That's why there was no update yesterday.

The resin armor is super heavy, but it's really cool to wear.

At least post it to the reader group and everyone praises me for having a stage play style (strike out)

It is indeed the five swords in the world, hahaha. (Looking at myself in a cosplay suit)

Trying to lure everyone into the group with beauty. (← obviously did not show his face)

Then I opened the game and said to Sanriyue in the game what I wanted to say back to him a long time ago, "Hahaha, it's okay to touch it".

I really want to go on a vertical roller coaster in this outfit. (sighs) Or a big pendulum would do.I can take off the armor on the shoulders, chest and back before going to sit.

The Sanyo Sanin area, which is also the "China/China area" of Japan, is mainly attacked by Hashiba Hideyoshi in the back, mainly in the Sanyo Road and Yama□□ area in the west of Honshu Island, including Tottori Prefecture and the island Five counties including Ne Prefecture, Okayama Prefecture, Hiroshima Prefecture, and Yamaguchi Prefecture.In order to avoid misunderstanding, we will refer to it as "Shanyang and Shanyin areas" in this article.

Uesugi Kenshin originally agreed with Nobunaga to respond in the east, but he did not attack Takeda as agreed.This is from "Oda Nobunaga" by Yamaoka Sohachi.Yamazaki Sanyanagi is also the name of the person in it. He is the envoy sent by Uesugi Kenshin to Oda, and he is also an old acquaintance of Oda Nobunaga.Here it is privately set as the person Mimaki Jingze met when he went to Uesugi’s house (←This kind of private setting is meaningless, thank you).I also made up the political reasons why Yamazaki Tsunayasai was sent here.
