Obviously, he doesn't want to wait any longer, if he doesn't start a war with the Kinoshita family at this time, then the other party will inevitably be able to use more military forces under the threat of the loss of Shikoku, Kyushu, and even the Kumano Water Army, and if it drags on for a long time, the other party's strength will only get stronger and stronger with the financial support of Arijie Town, Himeji Town, etc.

And these are not important, the most important thing is that in the twenty years since he came out, he has never suffered such a crushing defeat, and after the Kinoshita family breaks this, the morale of his army will inevitably rise because of this, and at the same time, it also gives his retainers the confidence to defeat their own family. If you really wait a little longer and let them unite completely, it will be much more difficult to deal with than now, and the advantage of this family is nothing other than the collapse of the country, and the weapon of the collapse of the country is difficult to come in handy in the field, so it can only rely on the bravery of the retainers and the elite army to defeat the enemy.

Three days after the clan fully mobilized his retainers, he received the news that the Kumano Navy had turned defeat into victory, not only defeating the Li family's army, but also completely eliminating Mori and the Shimazu army, but this did not shake his determination to have a final showdown with the Kinoshita family.

The people have already been sent out, and he has made it clear to the samurai who have gone to give orders, that when they summon the heads of the families and ask them to be armed, what if they send someone to inform them at this time? The decisive battle with the Kinoshita family will be postponed, and then it will be said in two years? This is obviously not possible, if you do this, it will inevitably affect the morale of all families, this kind of repeated thing, with your current status, you must not do it easily.

Half a month later, the Odawara assessment room was already overcrowded, and if you look at it roughly, there were at least hundreds of people.

Among them, in addition to dozens of genealogical retainers such as the Three Army Divisions, the Four Heavenly Kings, and the deputy commanders of the various armies of the Takayama family, Suwa Munenobu, Shibata Katsuie, Sakuma Morimasa, Satake Yoshishige, Asai Nagamasa, Nagamune Ibe Motokin, Wakasa Sango, Mutsu Date Masamune, Ashina Hidemasa and the Kuki Yoshitaka who had just recaptured Awaji Island, Takenaka Hanbei who was in charge of guarding Mino, Owari Front, Akechi Mitsuhide and others also appeared here with several important ministers of the family, in addition, to Sakuma Nobumori, Lin Tongzhen and others had already relinquished the position of monk governor, but the samurai who really didn't want to miss this battle also participated in this meeting after getting the permission of the clan.

These people were different from usual, before the clan came out, they didn't talk to each other like before, although if you look closely, their eyes are full of excitement, but this excitement does not want to be shared with others.

The lord invited himself and others to come, this is to seize the world, I thought it would take a few years, but who would have thought that it was only less than half a year since the New Year's assessment meeting, and the lord changed his decision, how could this not make them excited? Especially the Shibata Katsu family, he had already planned to tell him about the succession of the family governor when he saw the clan next time, so as to end his unsatisfactory career for most of his life, but who knew that the lord had changed his initial decision and was about to start a war with the Kinoshita family, which made him rekindle his fighting spirit, if the Takayama family could seize the world and give way to his own line, this life would be really complete.

And the clan didn't let everyone wait too long, and when they had just settled down, they saw the clan walking out of the inner room quickly.

As soon as he sat down, he said directly: "You have summoned you this time, and there is only one thing to say, and that is to seize the world!" ”

"Please rest assured, I will go all out to eliminate the Kinoshita family for the lord." After listening to this, everyone hurriedly replied, although they had guessed the lord's mind before coming, but now after hearing this sentence from the lord's mouth, the important ministers present were all completely excited without exception.

"Okay, since you don't have any opinions, then you can report the number of troops so that arrangements can be made."

"My lord, my subordinates have more than 700,000 stones in Yuanjiang, Suruga, and the Three Kingdoms of Three Rivers, and I can lead an army of 25,000 to participate in this battle." After Sakuma Morimasa finished speaking, he spoke directly without thinking about it. Although there are 30,000 people under the command of Sakuma Nobumasa, it is impossible to send them all, although there is no threat behind him, but if there is no defense force left in the territory, those bandits and bandits and the like will definitely take advantage of this time to come out and make trouble, and the 25,000 army is already the largest number of troops it can use.

This is not only known by the clan, but also by most of the people present, and it is obvious that there is no need to leave room this time, so after he finished speaking, he only heard Shibata Katsuya speak: "My lord, my subordinates have Nengdeng, nearly 600,000 stone from Vietnam and China, and I am willing to send an army of 25,000 troops to seize the world for my lord!" ”

And when Shibata Katsuya finished speaking, everyone present, including the clan, was shocked by this, Shibata's stone height is more than more than 100,000 stone less than Sakuma's family, this is not a small gap, plus Echichu and Noto do there is no prosperous town, Shibata family's military strength is basically dependent on land taxes, and the last battle with the Uesugi family made him suffer heavy losses, it has only been two years, how can he have 25,000 troops, let alone 25,000, even if he can dispatch 10,000 people this time, It was enough for him to use all his strength.

And Shibata Katsuya can't help it, if he is the first to speak, it doesn't matter, but now it is his sworn enemy Sakuma family who speaks first, especially when he sees the smug look of Sakuma Nobumori who is sitting slightly back, he gritted his teeth and said this number, and Shibata Katsuya has also made plans, don't look at the total of only 15,000 troops under his command, but in the past few decades, the family has saved a lot of money, anyway, it is not a decision made today, and the army will attack tomorrow, Then he will scatter his family wealth and take advantage of the time to recruit more ashigaru, regardless of the quality, at least in terms of quantity, he can't let the Sakuma family compare.

And in addition to fighting with Sakuma Nobumori, there is a more important point that has to be made for him to do this, this battle is related to the world, and it is also related to the future of the Shibata family, once he can make a contribution to this decisive battle with the Kinoshita family, then when he divides the world, he will inevitably get more rewards, he doesn't want to be surpassed by the Sakuma family, so that future generations are not as good as him. Well, after talking for a long time, he was actually still fighting with Sakuma Nobumori.
