Chapter 285
Chapter 285
Under the threat of Matsunaga Hideo who didn't know whether it was true or not, the young man with the same appearance as Saburo slowly showed a smile.
This is different from his usual friendly and relaxed smile when he rarely takes off his veil and faces Saburo, and it is also different from the simple and happy smile that Saburo always has.This smile is very suppressed, the corners of the mouth are only slightly raised, showing a little curvature that can be distinguished from the expressionless face, the muscles of the eyebrows and the corners of the eyes are loose, without any sign of happiness.It's not so much the gloom shown under the shock, it's better to say that he finally determined the target of the action, and every part of his face is permeated with an unshakable, tough and cold determination.
It was as if he had been unsheathed, polished and translucent, and then placed in the room. After standing for a long time, someone finally lifted the white cloth on it inch by inch, gradually showing the threatening sharpness of the sword.
"I am not Saburo." He said to Matsunaga Hideo, "I am Akechi Mitsuhide."
He should have thought of it earlier.
Why does Touken Fusangshen, who keeps saying that he wants to "maintain history", stay in this era to work for Saburo instead of going to the Heian era or the era of the Kamakura shogunate.Why is Daojian Fusangshen restricted by the "Government of Time" everywhere, but the location of the "Government of Time" is always a mystery, and no one even asks to see Saburo.Why is the swordsman wary of him, lest he will be unfavorable to Saburo, while allowing his countless behaviors, even if it was revealed that he replaced Saburo with the identity of "Oda Nobunaga", he never killed him , only keeping a cautious distance view.
Why does Saburo know nothing about the etiquette of this era, why Saburo often says incomprehensible words, why Saburo occasionally acts like he knows what will happen in the future, why Saburo insists that "Oda Nobunaga will die in The Honnoji Change"——
For Akechi Mitsuhide who was born in this troubled world, the so-called "history" is earlier, the early period of the Muromachi shogunate, even the Kamakura shogunate and the Heian period.But for Saburo and Token Fusangshin from an unknown era—should be the "future" era later than the Warring States period he is in now—this era is the so-called "history".
What they want to maintain is this "history".
The so-called "prediction" function of the swordsmen is probably not predicting the timing of the time-traveling army's attack, but knowing what happened in "history" so as to find out the possible time point of the time-traveling army's attack.Saburo will confirm that he died in the Honnoji Temple, which also happened in "history".
The "Government of Time" has never appeared, perhaps not because of contempt for Saburo, but because they cannot appear through the torrent of time!
Realizing this, Akechi Mitsuhide's hands trembled uncontrollably.
The first encounter with Saburo flashed back into his mind at this moment.At that time, the expression of the boy who fell from the sky and dressed in strange clothes clearly appeared in front of his eyes. Whether it was the surprise when he saw someone with the same appearance as himself, or the fact that Mitsuhide Akechi turned his head quietly when he rode his horse and saw that Saburo had indeed been killed by Ikeda Heng. Xing mistook it as "Oda Nobunaga", and the rejection and shock after being mistaken were all presented in the most authentic appearance that has not been beautified by time.
Saburo, he was indeed bestowed on Oda by the gods... man.
But recalling Saburo's countless declarations of "fighting for world supremacy" to everyone, Akechi Mitsuhide felt an unspeakable depression and pain.
If there is indeed "Oda Nobunaga" in the "history" in Saburo's cognition, then does it mean that "Oda Nobunaga's struggle for hegemony" is also an indispensable part of "history"? The world", is it out of his heart, or because he just became "Oda Nobunaga", so he has to take on this responsibility, just like taking up the Oda family left behind by him
Akechi Mitsuhide didn't dare to think too much, but couldn't help thinking too much.
He really put all the things he should do on Saburo.Whether it is the "Oda family" that he is aware of, or the events that should have been written in history by "Oda Nobunaga" that he did not realize.
Akechi Mitsuhide's expression gradually converged into his usual mild look that was rarely seen by people other than Saburo.
"...It seems that it is really not Nobunaga." The shock brought by Mitsuhide Akechi's appearance was only at the beginning. , barely sure that the person in front of him is not Saburo.
Although he often dislikes Saburo's frankness in words, he also admits that Saburo's personality really makes people feel relaxed-this is the nature of Saburo alone.If Akechi Mitsuhide wanted to seriously pretend, he could probably be fooled for a while, but when Akechi Mitsuhide seriously denied it and got rid of the confusion brought about by his appearance, his completely different essence from Saburo would be easily seen through.
"What kind of stand-in twins are traveling together or past and present?" It took only a few seconds to form a series of stalks that could explain the current situation. Matsunaga Hideo looked at Mitsuhide Akechi with a strange look, "No wonder you have to cover your face—— What Nobunaga once said about 'look the same' is really literal! Is this why you covet the Oda family?"
"If you think so." There is no need to conduct fruitless peace talks, and Akechi Mitsuhide's tone is not as gentle as before, but it still sounds as soft and cool as rain, "Mr. Matsunaga, you know 'history' "
"How could I understand that kind of thing!" Matsunaga Hideo replied in a nasty voice, "Anyway, Nobunaga won the world—that's what Nobunaga said, so he should be right."
When he looked at Akechi Mitsuhide, his expression was also very strange.
Originally Matsunaga Hideo was sure that Mitsuhide Akechi was just an ordinary person of this era - because Mitsuhide Akechi's every move was so in line with the performance of a samurai of this era, there was no trace of a modern person at all.But after seeing Akechi Mitsuhide's true face, the expression on the opponent's face that Saburo would never show really made his hair stand on end.
Even if it is twins, there are very few who can completely overlap in appearance.Akechi Mitsuhide's face made it difficult for Matsunaga Hideo to determine whether the other party was the same as Saburo, Saburo's twin brother, or just someone who looked similar to Saburo in this era.
Among the traversers they know each other so far, whether it is Saburo, Matsunaga Hideo or the long-dead Saito Dozo, they all came to this world with their own bodies and without any background.There are no familiar people or familiar things, and everything has to develop from scratch—Matsunaga Hide only heard that Saburo gradually made his fortune from the Oda branch. When he really met Saburo, the power of the Oda family had already risen Several times, Akechi Mitsuhide's "gentle and intelligent" and "frail" image left by him as "Oda Nobunaga" has been quickly replaced by Saburo's shocking "Owari fool" image in the outside world, and only Veterans of the Oda family will occasionally think of the former "Oda Nobunaga".
Therefore, in Song Yongxiu's view, Saburo's experience should not be much different from his. They are both helpless and suddenly have to survive in this era. And so on - in this case, the probability of meeting someone with the same appearance as oneself and eventually living under the same influence is really smaller than the probability of a lottery.
Unaware that Saburo ran into Mitsuhide Akechi who had the same appearance as soon as he crossed, and was given his name and family fortune as a gift, Matsunaga Hide didn't think that such a small probability could happen to him.
As far as he is concerned, it is more likely that the twins will travel together - but if the twins travel together, why do you have to cover your face with a special cover between brothers?
Or is it actually the past life and the present life, there is any special gravitational force - but the appearance of the past life and the present is equally acceptable, but let Saburo (in this life) fight for world supremacy, and Akechi Mitsuhide (in the previous life) cover his face to help, what kind of operation is this TV series? There won't be such a drama, will it?
At the beginning, his thinking was quite reliable, but in the end it was completely off the mark-Matsunaga Hideo, whose academic level is very poor, and whose history is even worse than Saburo's, is obviously not a character who is good at thinking and planning.He shook his head in the end, and still threw the bunch of wild guesses aside.
Akechi Mitsuhide didn't realize that Matsunaga Hide's weird expression hides such a strange brain hole - he and Saburo are neither past nor present, nor twins, but their actions are even more absurd than Matsunagahide secretly guessed.Taking Matsunaga Hideo's anomaly as a surprise at his own appearance, Akechi Mitsuhide breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that "history" indeed pointed to "Oda Nobunaga's acquisition of the world", and continued to ask.
"Then, does Mr. Matsunaga know about the 'Honnoji Change'?"
This time, Song Yongxiu's answer was equally quick: "...how could I know that kind of thing!"
"I see."
Akechi Mitsuhide was not too disappointed—he had already learned of the two versions of Saburo and Token Fusangshin about the change in Honno-ji Temple.
He continued to ask cautiously: "—then, if history is changed, do you know what the consequences will be?"
"Listen to your tone, do you still know 'history'?" Song Yongxiu said, "You seem to be a good student, but you still have to ask such unnutritious questions... I don't know what you mean by changing history. How about it, just look forward to being a scientist in your lifetime."
After laughing at the whims of Akechi Mitsuhide's question, he kindly continued to give his own answer.
"I don't remember history, so I don't know how to 'change history'. However, since I traveled through time, I have been living according to my own ideas-both life and death. In history There will be no one like me!"
He didn't know that "Matsunaga Hideo" really existed in history, and he didn't have the brains and spare time to think about the problem of space-time paradox. He just thought that he had traveled with his body and was an extra person in this world. In the end, it has nothing to do with "history".But after Mitsuhide Akechi listened, he seemed to have absorbed some strength from his words, and nodded in agreement.
"You're right." Akechi Mitsuhide said.
It is too difficult for Akechi Mitsuhide to think about the law of causality for a general in the Warring States Period to jump hundreds or even thousands of years later.He is an out-and-out talent cultivated in this era. Even if his extraordinary vision can help him make preparations and change policies immediately, he cannot push his thinking farther away at once. A place where you can't even wait and see.
After the trip, Saburo had the idea that "if history changes, it will always be very bad".
After Mitsuhide Akechi learned that Saburo was a time traveler, the first thing he thought of was "the history must be reversed".
He also feels that if one person is forced into "history" from the future era, then "history" will inevitably have one more person.If it is said that Saburo and the swordsman have to "maintain history" because of the "Government of Time" or other constraints... then can the extra people take any additional actions?
Saburo became "Oda Nobunaga" and entered history, so he who used to be "Oda Nobunaga" and is now "Akechi Mitsuhide" should also replace Saburo's supposed "extra person of this era" identity.Saburo said that "Aida" was the culprit of the Honnoji Incident. If this is true, then the Touken man's erroneous idea that "the main culprit is Mitsuhide Akechi" is the confusion caused by him being an "extra person"?
Akechi Mitsuhide, who knew nothing about history, had no idea how absurd his guess was—but because he captured the possibility of saving Saburo from death, his eyebrows stretched.
After fastening the face scarf again, Akechi Mitsuhide nodded towards Matsu Nagahide, and said politely: "Thank you for your information. I will leave Xingui Mountain City and report back to His Highness."
"Hey, don't worry"
Matsunaga Hideo's figure was much bigger than Akechi Mitsuhide, and he easily stopped Akechi Mitsuhide who was about to get up with just one hand.
"After asking me so many questions, I also have something I want to ask you. Love has to come and go. I have answered your questions so positively. You have to answer my questions anyway. I am worthy of it." .”
As he said that, he drew out the previous gun which was shorter than the iron cannon, and jokingly said, "If you don't answer my words, I can take you down as a burial."
Covering most of his expression with a face scarf again, Akechi Mitsuhide just nodded quickly without much reaction in the eyes of Matsunaga Hideo.
"You must have made other arrangements before you came to me." Matsunaga Hideo affirmed, "And that—ninja's. What the hell is that?"
Akechi Mitsuhide put his hands into his sleeves silently, and after a short thought, he simply replied: "——That's what you think now."
"What's the meaning"
"As a general of the Oda family, I am uncharacteristically dressed lightly, so you are more likely to let me enter the city, and you are more afraid of what will happen to me, so you dare not act rashly." Akechi Mitsuhide said calmly, "If you have to say that there is What kind of special arrangement... Probably I was the only one who had someone take the horse back on the road, and left the horse outside the city before entering the city."
Although it is difficult for the sword man to hide his abnormality after leaving the "drill"-this is actually the reason why Akechi Mitsuhide can reduce the number of followers. If he wants to observe the abnormality of the sword man at close range, he must not have too many bystander.At that time, Akechi Mitsuhide was not sure whether he could command the sword man.
However, this is also a call for help from the Oda family.
How Saburo himself understands it will not be considered for the time being, but for the rest of the Oda family retainers, it is unreasonable that Akechi Mitsuhide suddenly sent someone to sign back the horses. Going back only shows that the number of people on Akechi Mitsuhide's side has decreased.
The already small number of people was further reduced. Even if it was because of the soldiers under Akechi Mitsuhide, it was impossible for the Oda family's retainers to sit idly by.Even if Saburo insists that there is no need to use this to attack Matsunaga Hideo, on the premise that the pressure Uesugi and Honganji put on the Oda family is not enough to make Oda do his best, Akechi Mitsuhide is destined to have reinforcements.Even if he was galloping all the way to Xingui Mountain City, it wouldn't be long before the reinforcements arrived.
What's more, the outer clothes that the sword man took off at that time to camouflage were also left on the ground.There are also horses tied outside the city—horses will eat grass leaves and leave traces. The Ashgaru in Shigui Mountain City is so close that ordinary farmers dare not lead horses without authorization.And once Song Yongxiu turned his face, these horses were swept into the city by foot lightly, and the information formed by horse urine and grass blades was enough.
...Who told Akechi Mitsuhide to ask his followers to bring the horse back after he set off for half a day.Even if the horse needs to rest because of the long gallop, it will not change the short distance.
Even if everything that Akechi Mitsuhide did was destroyed by accident—at least, there is a man with a sword by his side.
Excluding the temptation factor that Mitsuhide Akechi wanted, among the men with swords he brought, at least it was impossible for Mitsuhide Akechi, who had the same face as Saburo, to be in danger if he didn't act.
The solution is to think more and more.
Without mentioning the backup role of the sword man, Akechi Mitsuhide simply explained his own suspicions.
"What about the ninja?"
"It's just as you think—'different from ordinary people'." Matsunaga Hide's previous blunt words were not indifferent, but the so-called "fusangshen" was too sensitive, and Akechi Mitsuhide just said so lightly, "I can't make sure they follow my orders, so any doubts Mr. Matsunaga may have are superfluous."
This sentence is not a lie—before that, although Akechi Mitsuhide had doubts, he didn't know whether he could really command the sword man.It is also for this reason that at the beginning of the peace talks with Matsunaga Hideo, he bluntly informed the other party of the existence of the "Koga Ninja", and used Matsunaga Hideo's ashigaru and attendants to determine the status of the sword man.
If the Touken man really shows up and stays where he is, this blunt statement to Matsunaga Hideo is the sincerity given by Akechi Mitsuhide so that the peace talks can proceed.If the swordsman is not influenced by him in the end, the swordsman who cannot be seen will naturally be impossible to be found. This blunt statement is a threat to Matsunaga Hideo, and it is also conducive to the development of peace talks-only the attitude of the peace talks with the former There will be changes.
Akechi Mitsuhide is not really a very smart and thoughtful character.
The advantage he can obtain comes from his reserve of knowledge and observation of his surroundings.The attitude of not moving light is what he has personally experienced, so he finally chose this risky approach.He is not a gambler like Song Yongxiu who only focuses on fun, nor is he a gambler like Saburo who behaves boldly and happily, but he can still be regarded as a cautious and cautious gambler.
Even after he learned the truth about "maintaining history", he became very uncertain about whether the sword man would defend such an unknown figure who should not appear in "history".
"——Although the faces are the same, you and Nobunaga are completely different." Matsunaga Hideo looked at him for a while, and finally said, "That guy trusts you so much, maybe he will lose in the end without even leaving his pants. "
The gun in his hand did not retract after he took it out, the muzzle of the gun was firmly pointed at Akechi Mitsuhide, his fingers had already hooked the trigger, and with just a light pull, Akechi Mitsuhide would be dead again.
"Well—but I'm not an unreasonable person. Anyway, if you dare to come to see me like this, you are ready to be buried here." Song Yongxiu continued, "Brother Guangxiu, what do you think I should do?" Well, I don’t understand the relationship between you and high school students for the time being, but as a fellow countryman, my hot thoughts are injected into your heart, which is almost the same as that injected into Nobunaga’s heart.”
His hand seemed to be slightly sideways, and after aiming with one eye squinted for a few seconds, his fingers seemed about to snap.
Also at the same time, Akechi Mitsuhide yelled sharply: "Tsurararu Kuninaga, 'go out' here!"
Matsunaga Hide's hand did indeed pull the trigger!
The gunfire should have overshadowed Akechi Mitsuhide's shout, but only in an instant, the white-haired and golden-eyed Tachi Fusangshin really appeared in front of Akechi Mitsuhide.There is no time retrograde army here, and Tsurumaru Kuninaga's figure is also between "normal" and "out of battle", but he did achieve the distance between the location and the location determined by the judge when he "out of the battle" When it is larger, "momentary movement" occurs.
At this moment, facing the projectile blasting out from the barrel, Tsurumaru Kuninaga instinctively judged the direction, and almost subconsciously intercepted the main body in the only way of the projectile.The "knife outfit" that had been fully supplemented on his body was suddenly shattered before he showed his human form!
"Don't worry—I missed it." Song Yongxiu just showed a rogue-like, willful expression again, "I just don't want to fall somewhere else inexplicably before I die."
He said in a sighing tone.
"How to bury this beautiful body full of scars, I don't want to accept anything other than the method I thought of. So don't leave me any trouble-see you next time, when the Oda Army attacks Shigiyama Castle It's about time."
"Good journey, Akechi Mitsuhide."
Sword: ...Our side is the correct history!Can you trust us?
Xiaoguang: I don't believe it.Do not believe.
Today's Xiaoguang still successfully guessed the wrong world view because he believed too much in Saburo's words.
And this is how Xiaoguang went to Matsunaga Hideo and talked...
Conversation with Song Yongjiu: Empty City Strategies
Men with swords and swords: turn against customers.
Cangmu: The city knows how to play.
Xiaoguang: Acceptance.
Even if I feel that the characters I wrote are not smart enough... emmm, I can't help it.After all, that's my IQ.And it's too late, my mind is a bit confused now...
This chapter is 6000+, which is two in one.
Song Yongxiu didn't care about Saburo at all, and this was also the reason for his last move.
Next is part of the lines where Matsunaga Hideo was attacked by Oda in the comics into Shigiyama Castle.Because I have references when writing these chapters, I will list them for you to see.
"My whole life, I can't be inferior to you forever, but I'm just a high school student..."
"Try to shoot through your kid's heart with hot thoughts!!"
"It's okay to kill you, I still have this awareness."
"As you said, the way I die is up to me—"
"Although it's a pity to blow up this beautiful body."
"I don't have any great ideas and beliefs, and I don't think that what I have done has any meaning to my life. ——But this kind of life is still quite happy. It's not bad to think about dying like this."
