Chapter 440 decided to go to war

This time to assist the Miyoshi family in the battle, there is another purpose, that is, to let Oda Nobunaga know the strength of the Oda Nobunaga Sho Naga family, so as not to be reused by it after the effect, in the heart of Matsunaga Xiu, the Oda family is not out of the sincerity, he just uses the Oda family as a springboard, thinking that he is preparing to seize the world, the more so, the more necessary it is for him to be reused by Oda Nobunaga, only in this way can he quickly get more territory, and when the world is convenient, he leads the elite under his command to take advantage of the situation, This world may be your own.

And from the information, he also came to the conclusion that Nobunaga was a very strange person, if he did not let him suffer before he was obedient, he would definitely underestimate himself, and if he was defeated and then submitted, then Oda Nobunaga not only did not hold a grudge against him, but would also trust him, and the person who could defeat him was worthy of respect, and this sentence was fully reflected in Nobunaga.

Since Matsunaga Shu knew Oda Nobunaga's character well, in his opinion, the question raised by Kusunoki Masatoshi was not a problem at all.

Thinking of this, I only heard Matsunaga Xiu speak: "Don't worry about this matter, I don't plan to return to the Oda family before the decisive battle, nor do I plan to defect at the time of the decisive battle, if you want to be valued by Nobunaga after returning to the Oda family, only after the decisive battle, this has two advantages, one is that it can make Nobunaga know that the combat power of the Daoist family is strong, not comparable to the general power, and the other is that after the war, it will also minimize the impact on reputation." I wonder what else you think about this? ”

Because Matsunaga Shu had been successful before, so over time, the retainers no longer had any doubts about his words, at most they only reminded him, if the lord had thought of this, then they would not say anything more, and completely follow the lord's orders to carry out, in their hearts, Matsunaga Hide's existence is like a god.

Although after Matsunaga Xiu finished speaking, the retainers present all agreed with the lord's idea, however, there is another point that makes the retainers feel worried, the lord has attracted the resentment of the hall by taking over the power of the Miyoshi family before, and then he has diverted tens of thousands of funds to strengthen the strength of the family, and he is regarded as an enemy by the main hall and the retainers of the Miyoshi family.

Although the main hall has sent someone to explain just now that as long as the family sends troops to help in the war, the previous things will be carried forward, but this must be talking about it, with the dissatisfaction of the main hall with the lord, who knows if it will be a loss, and if it happens, how to deal with it? Thinking of this, I only heard Toki Yoriji express the worry in his heart.

And Matsunaga Xiu didn't worry about this matter at all after listening to it, first of all, the Miyoshi family has to ask for himself, if he still wants to defeat the Oda army in the decisive battle, he won't do anything to himself, and not only will he not embarrass himself, but also treat himself well, otherwise, if he embarrasses himself at this time, or beheads himself, then the Miyoshi family will have to face the attack of the Oda army and the army of the family at the same time, if the Miyoshi family does not have their own help, even if they face the Oda family, they are powerless, How could he offend his own family and start a two-front war?

Even if Yoshitsugu Miyoshi is not the lord of the world, Araki Murashige must have thought of this, and even if he wanted to kill himself, he would do so after this battle was over.

And by that time, he has already returned to the Oda family, it can be said that Miyoshi Yoshitsugu has no chance at all, and, in order to let go of the situation, Matsunaga Hide does not plan to lead the army to join the Miyoshi family's army, he has two thousand elite banners in the garrison of Luozhong City, even if it is a decisive battle between the two armies, it is enough to form a formation of its own, why should he go to the army, as long as he finds a favorable terrain in a few miles away, or lurks in a place, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack, then he can not only let Oda Nobunaga know his ability, but also reduce losses, However, the time and location of the decisive battle have not yet been decided, and the strategy can only be determined depending on the situation. …,

Thinking of this, I only heard Matsunaga Xiu speak: "Don't worry about this matter, the key to the decisive battle with the Oda Army is the family, how could Miyoshi Yoshitsugu kill himself at this time, and now with the strength of his own family, it is far from being comparable to that year, under the desperate death, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu will not have good fruits to eat, and as long as the military strength of the family keeps a certain distance from it, and the ninjas are sent to investigate around, even if they want to do it, it is impossible." ”

After he finished speaking, he only heard the retainers say in a loud voice: "The wisdom of the lord and his subordinates can't wait, and he also asks the lord to give an order, and the subordinates must be smeared with liver and brain, and die for the lord and his family." ”

After listening to this, Matsunaga was very satisfied with the attitude of the retainers. However, now that the army of the Oda family has not captured Kannonji Castle, and the army of the Miyoshi family is also resting in Kinishima Castle, he really has nothing to command.

And the only thing to do now is to pay attention to the surrounding movements, although two days ago the ninjas under his command came to report, the Takayama Army not only captured Iimori Castle, but also defeated the 1,000 troops led by Nakagawa Kiyohide, but there has been no movement in the past two days, who knows if he will come to the mountain castle to attack him, and his return to the Oda family is imminent, if he is defeated by the Takayama Army again at this time, then what face do he have to see Oda Nobunaga, and how to get Oda Nobunaga's reuse, so the more critical the moment, the more cautious he must be, only in this way can he laugh to the end.

The last battle left an indelible impression on Matsunaga Xiu, he admitted that since his own Yuanfu, in addition to the Gaoshan clan and the Gaoshan army under his command, he has never been afraid of anyone, even if Miyoshi Changqing is such a good character, the most reluctant is not played by himself in the palm of his hand, and the most reluctantly is played to death by himself, but he doesn't know what it is, but he is very jealous of the Takayama clan.

In terms of resourcefulness, he is not under himself, on ruthlessness, he even has the evil deeds of burning the Wish Temple, this Temple, and killing the two temples, and at this point he and himself are even more in between.

And the military strength under his command is not to mention, even he learned from him. Although it seems that he is on par with him in all aspects, Matsunaga Shu knows that he is inferior to the other in two places, the first point is that the luck of the Takayama clan is too good, no matter when, as long as it encounters danger, there will always be nobles to help, otherwise I am afraid that it would have died in Sanhe a long time ago.

And it's not only that, the Takayama clan can anticipate the enemy's opportunity every time he fights, if there are only one or two times, it can also be explained by coincidence, but every time it's like this, it's really a little inexplicable, he seems to be able to grasp the other party's heart every time, attack the enemy's weakness, this can no longer be explained by luck, the only thing that can be explained is that the Takayama clan knows each of their opponents very well, and if it achieves such an effect, then he needs a huge ninja army to find out information for it, Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to know every opponent well, so this is what makes Matsunaga the most jealous.

Although on the bright side, the army under his command is much more powerful than the other party, but I am afraid that the strength in the dark will be much worse than the other party.

And the other point is that the ideas of the Gaoshan clan are always unexpected by others, and people can't figure it out at all, no one will know what he wants to do next, and the things he does seem to be unreasonable, or they shouldn't be done by a samurai at all, but every time he can get the greatest benefit, or the fastest and most effective way to achieve the goal, this is not only not comparable to himself, I'm afraid there is no one in the world who can compare with him, at least he doesn't know that there is such a person in the Dao.

If it were someone else, he would definitely hide from such a demon, but this was not Matsunaga Xiu's character, in his opinion, the more this was the case, the more necessary it was for the two Gaoshan Clan Sects to kill, only in this way could he eliminate the threat it brought to himself forever. …,

And since the last time he failed with the Takayama clan, in addition to starting to train the elite, he also recruited two hundred ninjas to form a ninja army, although these lowly ninjas made him very disdainful, but he knew the importance of the Dao information, so he took them in, otherwise, Matsunaga Xiu would never accept their allegiance.

And this two hundred ninja army belongs to the two ninjas, and one of the upper ninjas has one hundred and twenty ninjas, and the other upper ninja has eighty people, and after eliminating the old and young, the ninja army of the Matsunaga family has finally taken shape, although both of them are ninjas, but because of Matsunaga Xiu's contempt for ninjas, so when the meeting was held, the two of them were not qualified to participate at all.

And Matsuhisa-su only remembered that there was such an army at home when he used them.

I only heard Matsunaga Xiu speak: "Immediately order the family ninja army to search for the whereabouts of the Takayama army in the mountain city, and if you find it, report it immediately." ”

After hearing this, the attendants beside Matsunaga Shu hurriedly replied, and quickly left the assessment room to convey the lord's order to the ninja army.

Seeing that the retainers had nothing to say, he just ordered them to prepare, and without any substantive orders, he ended the meeting.

When Matsunaga Shu sent ninjas to investigate the traces of the Takayama Army, the ninjas under the command of the clan sect were not idle.

That night, just as the clan was about to rest, I saw a ninja come to the clan and report: "My lord, when my subordinates went to Kojima City to observe the movements of the Miyoshi army, I heard a very important news. ”

After hearing this, the clan didn't feel sleepy, so he hurriedly asked, "Tell me quickly, what is the important news?" ”

Seeing that the lord was in a hurry, this ninja didn't dare to have any delay, so he hurriedly said: "Back to the lord, Matsunaga Shu has decided to lead the army to help in the battle, and I ask the lord to decide." ”

"Okay, I'm done."
