And Shibata Katsuya and Sakuma Nobumori, who were arguing opposite, saw that Hasegawa Shuichi actually led the monkey to the first position on the opposite side, and they all stopped, it is obvious that the lord's support for the monkey has shifted from the dark to the open, and their opinions are rarely unified, this time they actually showed their dissatisfaction with the strong column through language, and Kinoshita Toyoshiro saw this, not only did he not feel angry, but he smiled and said: "Ha Lu Ha, I didn't expect that I, Kinoshita Tojiro, can call myself in front of the two adults from now on, Ha Lu Ha, For me, I guess that's a great joy. ”

After saying that, Toyoshiro didn't look at the angry faces of Shibata Katsuya and Sakuma Nobumori at all, and sat on the mat with his waist straight.

Although he knew that he shouldn't say this, the anger that had been pent up in his heart for many years still broke out, didn't you look down on me before, and now Lao Tzu has mixed it up, see what you can do with me.

Seeing that Kinoshita Tojiro dared to do this to his father-in-law, he really couldn't stand it, since he wanted to say it, he would make the other party feel pain, so he only heard the clan smile and said: "Lord Shibata and Lord Sakuma don't say that they are a little like sitting back, even after retiring, there is still my Takayama clan to support, and if I also retire, there is a group of unfilial sons to support, but Kinoshita-sama has worked too hard for his family, and even the major event of giving birth to offspring has been delayed, which really makes the clan feel sincerely admired."

But even if you don't think about yourself, you should also think about the cushion you sit on, because if something happens, then your seat will probably be occupied by someone else. Therefore, according to the opinion of the clan, adults should sell more while they are young. ”

It can be said that the words of the clan are vicious, and he knows that the fact that there is no birth is definitely the biggest taboo of Kinoshita Toyoshiro, as soon as this remark comes out, then the battle between the two factions will be excessive from fair competition to mutual demolition, on the one hand, the clan is avengeing the grievances of the two fathers-in-law, and on the other hand, it also hopes to accelerate the competition between the two factions, only in this way can Kinoshita Toyoshiro make mistakes. The more he hates himself, the more mistakes he makes.

And as long as he does more restraint during this period, then I'm afraid that if he doesn't have to do it himself, Nobunaga will clean him up. Even if it doesn't, it will definitely stand on his side again in the future, and for the clan, this is enough.

Kinoshita Toyoshiro, who had just sat down, stood up suddenly after hearing the words of the clan, not to mention that he had no future, even if he mentioned the child in front of him. I only heard the body and said angrily: "Takayama Clan, I, Kinoshita Hideyoshi, swear that I will be inseparable from you from now on!" ”

And after he finished speaking, all the retainers in Kinoshita's camp were shocked, how could this be what Kinoshita Fujiyoshiro should say, although everyone knew that the battle between the two factions was inevitable, but it was possible to do this, but it was absolutely impossible to say it. If this word reaches the ears of the lord, then not only will Kinoshita Toyoshiro not be trusted by the lord, but I am afraid that even he will be affected by him. Some retainers were just about to persuade him, hoping that this matter could be revealed, but the clan finally waited for this opportunity, so how could he let it go easily.

So I just heard him smile and said: "Even if Kinoshita-sama wants to be close to me, I'm afraid there is only this generation, if the adults don't hurry, I'm afraid the adults won't have this ability in the future." ”

"You ......" Kinoshita Tojiro, who has always been sharp-tongued, was speechless by the clan this time.

Although what the clan said was a matter of factional strife, anyone could hear that he was still sarcastic about Kinoshita Toyoshiro having no descendants.

"Gaoshan Clan, don't be too complacent. Someday I'll let you know how good I am. Hum! Kinoshita Toyoshiro held back for a long time to hold back such a sentence, it was obvious that he was defeated in this confrontation, and as soon as he said these words, many of the samurai in the field who had already planned to join his camp had to regain their power, following such a person who had no city. Do you have a future, and what if you make a wrong step?

And Takayama Shibata and his faction saw that the Takayama clan general had nothing to say, but they were very happy, don't look at Kinoshita Toyoshiro can be majestic for a while, but when he meets Takayama-sama, he is not an opponent at all, it seems that his previous choice is correct.

After about a pillar of incense, Nobunaga came out of the inner room.

"Subordinates, etc., see the lord."

"Okay, this time I summoned everyone here for the last battle, to reward the meritorious retainers, and Murai Sadakatsu can begin." As soon as Nobunaga sat down, he listened to him get straight to the point.

"It's the lord." After answering, Murai Sadakatsu opened the file in his hand and read it aloud: "The reason why this battle can achieve the most successful victory depends on your bravery.

The Takayama clan single-handedly blocked the army of the Takeda family north road, and won more than 20 samurai such as the chief general of the Takeda army, Yama Prefecture Changjing, and the deputy general Okuma Chaohide, and led the army to attack Shinano and seize more than 30,000 stone of land. ”

After listening to the lord's reward to Lord Takayama, he couldn't help but feel very surprised, if they could still accept the official position and the sealing of 20,000 stone land, then the power to go out of the army on their own was too much for them to think of, once Lord Takayama obtained this power, wouldn't it mean that the growth of the Takayama family had become inevitable?

All the retainers know that the Takayama family is much more elite than the banner under the command of the lord, and the army under his command has now expanded to nearly 5,000 people, with such an army, if you seize the opportunity, even if you win another country, it is not difficult, if this is the case, then Takayama will become a daimyo of hundreds of thousands of stone from now on, no matter how much you chase after you, I am afraid you will not be able to catch up.

If such a reward does not have much impact on those retainers who remain neutral, then the blow to the samurai of the Kinoshita faction is too big to describe in words, and this is a complete disaster for them, doesn't the lord want to support his own camp and suppress the Takayama Shibata faction, but judging from this reward, it is not like it at all, could it be that the lord has changed his mind again?

Now many of the retainers of the Kinoshita faction are beginning to feel a little regretful, they regret that they should not have made a decision before the matter was clear, and threw themselves at Kinoshita Toyoshiro, but what is the use of regretting now, since Kinoshita Toyoshiro said those words just now, he himself can not make changes, change is equivalent to offending all the two factions, if so, then this Oda family is big, but there will definitely be no place for themselves, now they only hope that the lord's reward for Kinoshita-sama will not be too bad, In this way, there may be a possibility of competing with the Takayama Shibata faction......)
