Chapter 629: The Burning of Long Island City (1)
In Long Island City, a huge shout resounded through the heavens and the earth, and anyone who felt the slightest bit could hear the resentment in this unmeaning shout. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"It seems that there is no need to persuade anything." Oda Yoshinobu stroked Li Huamei's head and said lightly.
Hearing this, Li Huamei, who was kneeling under Oda Yoshinobu's crotch, raised her head and looked at Oda Yoshinobu with a solemn expression, wanting to ask something, but she still couldn't open her mouth after all.
"Okay~ Pack up and get ready for battle." Seeing this, Oda Yoshinobu chuckled and pinched Li Huamei's pretty face. Just after standing up, he suddenly asked in a strange tone, "Hua Mei, do you think I'm cruel?" ”
"This ...... No, they're to blame! And it is precisely because the lord is so kind that he will consider these. Li Huamei froze when she heard Oda Yoshinobu's words, and then said in a deep voice. Does the lord know about Bai Qi during the Warring States period of the Ming Kingdom? He deceived the soldiers of Zhao in a war, first made the soldiers of Zhao surrender, and then killed the unarmed soldiers of Zhao State, a total of 450,000 people. ”
"Are there so many? But I remember that in the end, Bai Qi seemed to be executed by King Qin, right? Oda Yoshinobu raised an eyebrow, obviously a little surprised by the number, because in his memory, it seemed to be 200,000 or 100,000.
"Yes, Bai Qi did die at the hands of his own people, but that's more because Bai Qi's credit is too great......" Li Huamei said this, her tone didn't know why there was a trace of worry, her eyes looked at Oda Yoshinobu, maybe she was afraid that Oda Yoshinobu would follow Bai Qi's old path?
Seeing this, Oda Yoshinobu couldn't help but gently tap Li Huamei's little head, and said angrily, "Don't think about it, the relationship between me and my brother is not comparable to the relationship between Bai Qi and the King of Qin." They're just kings and ministers, and my brother and I ...... between me," Oda Yoshinobu said at the end, and couldn't help but laugh, because he himself didn't know what his relationship with Oda Nobunaga was.
Looking at Oda Yoshinobu's appearance, Li Huamei didn't say anything more, Li Huamei is a very smart woman, she knows that if she continues to entangle on this issue, it will definitely not affect the relationship between Oda Yoshinobu and Oda Nobunaga, but the relationship between Oda Yoshinobu and her.
Moments later, Oda Yoshinobu gathered his retainers again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I think you should have heard the sound just now." Oda Yoshinobu shrugged his shoulders, and then suddenly his expression became extremely serious, "I know, what will happen later, you may be very unbearable, after all, that's a full 100,000 lives!" So, if anyone finds this unacceptable, you can go back to Osaka! ”
As he spoke, Oda Yoshinobu glanced around at the shocked crowd and said again without waiting for them to speak, "You can rest assured that there is no ambiguity in what I just said, and whether you return to Osaka or stay here, I will still treat you equally in the future." I just think it'......" Oda Yoshinobu scratched his head and organized the words a little, "Well, I don't want you to live in nightmares in the future." After all, what to do next is really not comparable to ordinary wars. ”
It's just that as soon as Oda Yoshinobu's words fell, Keiji Maeda jumped up, "My lord! The subordinates know what you mean, and they want to bear this infamy alone, but as a retainer, how can you let the lord bear it alone at such a time?! ”
And with Maeda Keiji's words, the others also stood up and expressed their positions, seeing this, Oda Yoshinobu suddenly had a headache, because he found that his words were still misunderstood. Helplessly, Oda Yoshinobu glanced at Li Huamei, hoping that she could help him explain.
It's just a pity that Li Huamei just looked at Oda Yoshinobu with a serious face and said, "Lord, my subordinates know that you have good intentions by doing this, but my subordinates feel that you have inadvertently broken the hearts of your retainers by doing this. After all, a loyal retainer will never leave at this time. ”
"Uh...... Forget it, when I didn't say it. Oda Yoshinobu pouted, and finally said helplessly. Because he suddenly remembered that most of his retainers were brainless, well, he himself was like this.
"Then ......" Oda Yoshinobu looked around at everyone, his expression unusually serious.
"Keiji! I'm afraid that the enemy army will soon be ready to charge our position, and you two are in charge of defense, and you must not let the enemy rush out! ”
"Yes!"
"The rest of you, prepare dry firewood, oil cans, torches and other things, and spread them all over the periphery of Long Island City for me!" Yoshinobu Oda said loudly.
"This ......" Hearing this, everyone hesitated, and only then did they realize what Oda Yoshinobu meant by the nightmare in his mouth just now.
Seeing this, Oda Yoshinobu showed a cruel smile, "You're right, I'm going to burn Nagashima Castle!" After saying that, Oda Yoshinobu shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be relaxed, "Actually, this is the best way, isn't it?" Storming, we will lose countless soldiers. The siege of the city not only requires a lot of time and materials, but the enemy will also experience several days of very painful life. Therefore, out of humanitarianism, it is the best way to let them ascend to the Western Heavenly Elysium in flames. ”
"This ......" Shigeharu Takenaka opened his mouth, and he who had wanted to persuade him found that he couldn't say what he had prepared.
The same is true for the others, with expressions of "I am speechless, I am speechless", even though they don't know what humanitarianism is.
Until he dispersed, Keiji Maeda still looked at Shiraki Yukihisa with a strange expression, "Xingjiu, the lord is ...... right"
"It sounds ridiculous, but as the lord said, it's the best way to go." Shiraki nodded and said. Just looking at his somewhat confused eyes, it was obvious that he didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do so.
"What do you want to do so much, we are retainers! The only thing to do is to follow the lord and move on! As for the merits and demerits, leave it to future generations to judge! Shima Zuo said in a deep voice.
The actions of the Oda Army were quickly discovered by the people in Nagashima Castle, after all, such a huge operation was impossible to hide.
"What?! Oda Yoshinobu dares to do this?! Chenghui of the Wishing Temple stared at the Chengyi of the Wishing Temple.
"Father, let's kill it immediately, it's too late!" Wishing Temple Cheng said anxiously.
"Good! Just do as you say! In addition, tell all believers that Oda Yoshinobu, this Shura, is going to burn us, and if you don't want to die, you will do everything you can to kill a way! Sumie said loudly.
