The wrestling conference started as scheduled, and the tatami mats on the first and second floors around the dojo were filled with samurai who came to watch. In this war-torn world, family inheritance is more important than anything else. A good heir may be
It directly determines the life and death of the family. Therefore, the samurai pay special attention to it. Basically all the respected samurai, including the two distinguished guests Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu, came to the scene to observe.
The focus of everyone is the 16 tatami venue located in the center of the martial arts dojo. All participating martial arts disciples have to compete there in the form of a ring competition. At this time, the dojo is very noisy, whether it is people talking about it or not.
The warriors and the eager martial arts disciples are all paying attention to who will be the first to rush to the stage.
Everyone's eyes are basically focused on the two children of Oda Kimaru and Oda Chashinamaru. As the school-age sons of Oda Nobunaga, they will naturally get the most attention. And at this moment, the first one to stand on the ring
Their identities would be extremely special. Retainers or children of ordinary warriors might not dare to steal the limelight from these two people, so they dare not make any moves. It can be said that the first position on the ring is for the two of them.
Prepared by one person.
However, being the first to stand in the ring will also bear tremendous pressure. If someone is accidentally knocked over, it will not end well. Not only will he lose face, but Oda Nobunaga will also lose face.
.
In the end, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Oda Kimaru took several deep breaths, finally mustered up the courage, and walked slowly towards the ring. After standing firm, he walked towards where Oda Nobunaga was sitting.
A gift.
"Dare to be the first in the world, this kid is good! He has a bit of a spare demeanor!" Oda Nobunaga saw that his eldest son lived up to expectations and was the first to walk onto the ring. He patted Nohime sitting next to him with satisfaction and smiled.
He praised.
"I just don't know, who will go back to be Kiwimaru's opponent?" Nohime blinked her bottomless eyes and looked expectantly at the many disciples in the audience.
"Haha, Anon is right." Oda Nobunaga smacked his lips and looked at the disciples below. At this time, it is really embarrassing to face off against the eldest son of the family governor in the ring. These things
Most of the children of the Wu family know a thing or two about politics, and they are not stupid young people. If you are the first to compete with the young master, and you knock the prince to the ground, causing the young master to lose face in front of everyone, isn't that an offence?
The future lord?
However, if you go up and deliberately release water to the young master, if you are discovered by the young master or everyone else, you will inevitably feel a little resentful or have a lot of comments. Furthermore, some capable disciples of the Wu family are waiting for this conference to show off their skills and gain a good reputation.
Then, how can you be willing to be the young master's foil?
And those who are not good enough dare not step forward. If they are easily knocked over by Young Master Qi Qiwan in front of everyone, it will not only embarrass the family, but also be seen clearly by Young Master.
Therefore, more than a hundred children from well-known families on the sidelines looked at each other in confusion, but no one dared to step forward. The scene was awkward for a while, and the smile on Oda Kimaru's own face became slightly unnatural.
Just when Oda Nobunaga couldn't stand it anymore and was about to personally designate his second son Chashinmaru to fight against Kijimaru, a figure strode towards the dojo. At the same time, he was accompanied by a vigorous greeting:
"My Majesty, Tokugawa Saburo Nobuyasu, has come to ask for advice from the young master!"
Everyone was shocked and took a closer look. Who was that person if he wasn't Tokugawa Nobuyasu, the young master of the Tokugawa family? Everyone took a breath and turned their attention to Tokugawa Ieyasu in the private room on the second floor.
·
Tokugawa Ieyasu also opened his eyes wide at this time, looking at his child in disbelief as he stood opposite Oda Nobutada.
Why did he, a child of the Tokugawa family with a sensitive identity, get up on this occasion that even so many of the Oda family's own children did not dare to attend?
"Takechiyo, what's going on?" Yu Qiuping, who was sitting next to him, also had black question marks written all over his face, "Did you and the lord discuss it and let Saburo and the young master Qijimaru compete?"
"How have I ever discussed such a thing!" Tokugawa Ieyasu whispered angrily, "This kid! He thinks about practicing martial arts all day long and has no idea at all in his mind! He usually can't tell the difference between occasions. How can he do it at this time?
Go up and fight against Master Oda?"
"It's okay if you lose, but the worst thing you can do is lose face to the Tokugawa family..." Tokugawa Ieyasu's face was already sweating a little, "If you win..."
"If we win, we will be in big trouble... In front of so many people from the Oda family, the young master of the Tokugawa family defeated the young master of the Oda family face to face..." Yu Qiuping took a breath of cold air and whispered: "This kid Saburo is not
How about being so ignorant?"
"I think..." Tokugawa Ieyasu swallowed, his Adam's apple moving up and down violently, "He may not have understood the joints inside..."
·
After Tokugawa Nobuyasu and Oda Kimaru bowed to each other, they all got into a posture.
Although Oda Kimaru does not have a Yuanfu yet, he is already 12 years old this year, while Tokugawa Nobuyasu is only 9 years old. At this age, although the changes brought about by the growth of children are not as big as the 0-5 year old gap, they are still
It's enough to give Oda Kimaru a big advantage in strength and height. Think about it, it's like a fourth-grade elementary school student fighting with a first-year junior high school student. And Oda Kimaru is indeed probably better than De.
Kawa Nobuyasu is about half a head taller and has longer legs. He should be able to suppress Tokugawa Nobuyasu steadily.
At the beginning of the game, the situation did develop as everyone imagined. Oda Kimaru and Tokugawa Nobuyasu grabbed each other's clothes and shoulders with their hands, shaking together. Oda Kimaru relied on his superior strength and height
, almost overturned Tokugawa Nobuyasu several times. Because Tokugawa Nobuyasu was not strong enough, he was often pushed back by Oda Miracle Maru, and was almost pushed out of the range several times. However, although Tokugawa Nobuyasu is not tall, he has
He is stubborn and strong, and is not discouraged even if he is at a disadvantage. Every time he exerts his strength, he will roar in a voice with a strong Mikawa accent. In contrast, Oda Kimaru appears to be quiet and hardworking.
insufficient.
Although most of the people here are from the Oda family, they are all samurai, and they instinctively feel sympathy and appreciation for the party that is at a disadvantage and still fights tenaciously.
As Tokugawa Nobuyasu relied on his tenacious defense to block several attacks from Oda Kimaru, there were already faint shouts of praise around the venue. Oda Kimaru obviously did not train as well as Tokugawa on weekdays.
Xin Kang worked hard, and gradually his physical strength became a little weak.
As the war situation gradually reversed, there were more and more sweat beads on Tokugawa Ieyasu's face, and a few drops of sweat were already flowing down his temples. Yu Qiupei himself was frightened when he saw it, for fear that Tokugawa Nobuyasu would seize the opportunity to kill Oda.
Miraculous Pill was thrown down.
What Yu Qiuping was afraid of happened immediately.
Just when Yu Qiupei was about to speak to remind Tokugawa Ieyasu, Tokugawa Nobuyasu suddenly exerted his strength and withdrew to pass Oda Kimaru who was trying hard to push him out of bounds. Oda Kimaru
He hurriedly retreated, but his center of gravity was still unstable and he staggered forward a few steps. Tokugawa Nobuyasu seized the opportunity and pushed his waist hard. Oda Kimaru was caught off guard and fell embarrassingly.
Out of the tatami area.
Tokugawa Nobuyasu wins!
The moment Oda Kikimaru was thrown off the field, many samurai who were already immersed in the game forgot about the political factors for a moment, and instead shouted emotionally. And Tokugawa Nobuyasu, who didn't know the seriousness, also simply acted like this
He was the same age, and he raised his arms and shouted excitedly because he defeated a powerful opponent.
He clenched his fists tightly with great excitement and looked in the direction of his father in Yajian on the second floor, hoping to get a word of encouragement from his father. However, all he saw was his father's cold expression, and the corners of his mouth that were squeezed hard.
He smiled bitterly. At such a young age, he seemed to have not yet understood that in Qingzhou City, in front of countless retainers and descendants of the Oda family, he threw the young master of the Oda family to the ground. What a difference to the Tokugawa family
In terms of what kind of concept it is.
Tokugawa Ieyasu felt 10,000 regrets now. Why didn’t he give this young boy a few words of advice before? No, he felt 10,000 regrets. Why did he bring this young boy to the banquet!
Just when Tokugawa Ieyasu was regretting it, an excited roar came from the second floor.
"Well done! Looks like a Mikawa samurai!"
It was Oda Nobunaga’s shout!
Whether they were those who were gloating about the Tokugawa family's misfortune and wanted to see the Tokugawa family's jokes, or those who were secretly worried about the Tokugawa family, they were all a little surprised by Oda Nobunaga's cheers at this moment, and they all turned their attention to Oda Nobunaga -
- The latter, regardless of his demeanor, put one foot on the fence and pumped his fist with the same excitement with the other hand.
"Boy! Not bad! Keep up the good work! From now on, the Tokugawa family will be handed over to you!" Oda Nobunaga smiled and shouted at Tokugawa Nobuyasu. Tokugawa Nobiyasu also knelt down and kowtowed very respectfully to Oda Nobunaga.
The performance of thanksgiving.
"Kijimaru! Do you realize the difference!" Oda Nobunaga then spoke condescendingly to Kijimaru: "On weekdays in Owari, everyone lets you go along with you and makes you feel like you are
It’s amazing! Now you understand, there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world!”
"My child realizes that I was wrong! I will work harder in the future." Hearing this, Oda Kimaru lowered his head in shame, "I will follow my father's teachings."
"Okay! If you know you made a mistake, just correct it!" Oda Nobunaga encouraged him with satisfaction, and shouted loudly: "Go on! Tokugawa Nobuyasu holds the base, who will challenge?"
Just after Oda Nobunaga made a few words of praise and criticism, and skillfully brushed off the embarrassing situation, Tokugawa Ieyasu breathed a sigh of relief. If Oda Nobunaga had turned pale and said nothing just now, then the Tokugawa family would have
I won’t be able to step down!
However, when Tokugawa Ieyasu raised his head and looked at Oda Nobunaga quietly, he found that the latter was staring directly at Tokugawa Nobunaga's back, the coldness in his eyes was completely different from the smile just now. Although
What he was looking at was Tokugawa Nobuyasu's back, but Tokugawa Ieyasu felt a faint chill on his back.
You know, Saburo is the adopted daughter of Imagawa Yoshimoto - the child of Tsukuyama-den...and Imagawa Yoshimoto is Oda Nobunaga's sworn enemy.
