Along with the strange actions of the Iga ninjas, there was a terrible rumor. It spread in Iga, Yamato and even the larger Kinki area. Ame Akihei was determined to rebel and had secretly joined forces with the Iga ninjas and Matsunaga Hide.
.
Needless to say, Yu Qiupei could tell at a glance that this was Matsunagahide's plan to alienate him. It is estimated that he had secretly communicated with the Iga ninjas, and deliberately asked the Iga ninjas to only attack Kitano Nobuo's troops, and he also asked the Yamato nobles to only attack Nobuo Nobuo's troops.
The Yuqiu family surrendered to make the rumors more credible.
Uakiupei immediately sent an envoy to clarify to Oda Nobunaga, truthfully report everything he knew, and also informed him of his speculations about Matsuzuki Nagahide's plan to divorce, hoping that Oda Nobunaga could understand. At the same time, he also went to
He sent his colleagues from the Oda family to the north and explained to them the situation here.
However, on the same day that Yu Qiuping sent the envoy, Matsushita Nagahide once again added a handful of firewood to the burning fire.
Because Nobuo Kita suffered a setback in Iga country, he urgently needed reinforcements. So he asked the people of southern Yamato country who had previously surrendered to him to enter Iga country to support him. However, no one from Yamato country took action, and all of them
Stand by where you are. Several Koreans even responded to Nobuo Nobuo's request for help: "We only surrender to His Highness Jibu, so we only accept His Highness Jibu's orders."
Bei Nobuxiong was so angry when he heard this that he inherited his fiery temper from his father. He immediately asked the envoy to go to Yu Qiuping to investigate and ask him to explain what the situation was. Yu Qiuping told him earnestly that these were all Matsunaga's.
Jiuxiu's plan to divorce, but Bei Nobuxiong couldn't listen to it at all. He felt that he was being disrespected in front of so many people. He was originally adopted into the Bei family to inherit the family business. He was able to control the old ministers of the Bei family all because of his father.
He is supporting someone from behind, so he takes his own prestige very seriously. Doing this will definitely make him lose face.
Therefore, Yu Qiuping had to send envoys privately to try to communicate with those Yamato people, trying to persuade them to support Bei Nobuxiong. However, as soon as Yu Qiuping's envoys arrived, all the Yamato people broke out of camp as if they had been given blood.
He came out and immediately rushed to Iga to support, saying verbally, "I came to support on the order of His Highness the Jibu." These were good, Yu Qiuping became darker and darker, and Bei Nobuo was so angry that he almost stabbed someone with a knife. According to reports
After receiving the news from Yoshiyuki Sawaki, Oda Nobunaga was furious.
"I will investigate immediately to find out who among the wealthy families in Yamato is taking the lead in all these activities." Upon seeing this, Amano Keitoku immediately asked the ninjas of Crow to start monitoring and investigate the wealthy families in Yamato. "This is obviously someone who has been affected.
Matsunagahide's instructions were to pretend to surrender and deliberately stir up the atmosphere among the Yamato people who were dissatisfied with the Oda generals and fearful of Oda Nobunaga."
"It's exactly the same as Hanbei's prediction before." Yu Qiuping glanced at Takenaka Shigeharu, who was silent on the side. The latter was obviously a little annoyed because of the deterioration of the situation. After a while, Takenaka Shigeharu interrupted: "Your Highness, please forgive me.
Frankly speaking, the current trend is quite unfavorable to His Highness. Matsunagahide's alienation plan is really vicious. I am afraid that many people in the Oda family have begun to suspect His Highness. The best way for His Highness to deal with it at the moment is to leave the army and go to Kyoto to meet Ori.
Your Highness Tian, ​​all misunderstandings are self-evident."
"You're right, prepare it for me." Yu Qiuping pursed his lips and nodded, while looking at Takenaka Shigeharu, "When I leave the army, you will be the supreme commander."
However, before Yu Qiuping could leave, an extremely urgent situation immediately occurred in Yamato-Iga, making it impossible for him to escape.
Several of the Yamato people who went to Yamato to "support" Kitanobuo led their troops to rebel and suddenly attacked Kitanobuo's baggage train. The irrational Kitanobu attacked the entire Yamato army indiscriminately. Those who did not rebel
The Yamato people were also forced to fight. The Northern Army, which intended to drive out the Yamato people, was not persuaded until the arrival of Fukushima Yasunari led by Tokiwa Bei. By this time, the Yamato people had already suffered heavy losses and retreated towards Yamato.
Bei Nobuo wanted to continue the pursuit, but
It was Yu Qiuping who arrived at the scene in time and resolutely stopped his behavior. Yu Qiuping was worried that Bei Nobuo's military action against the people of Yamato would force the powerful people of the country in the northern part of Yamato to rebel against the Oda family due to various conflicts.
Sure enough, the suffering of the people of southern Yamato caused an uproar in northern Yamato. The wealthy families headed by the Yagyu family announced their rebellion from the Oda family. The entire northern Yamato was once again filled with the flags of the Matsunaga family overnight. Many temples, such as Kofukuji Temple, etc.
The Tsutsui family still stood on the side of the Oda family and barely defended the Oda family's food route, which allowed the Oda family's army to avoid the danger of running out of food.
The whole of Yamato was in chaos. The wealthy people who originally supported the Oda family, except for the Tsutsui family, the Ochi family and some temple forces, all rebelled back. At this point, Yu Qiupei was no longer able to stop Kitano Nobuo from continuing to take action.
For this reason, under the pressure of Nobuo Nobuo, he had no choice but to order Tokiwa Bei and Wan Junbei to join the encirclement and suppression of the powerful families of Yamato.
At the same time, Amano Keitoku's crow also discovered a major piece of information: there were frequent messenger exchanges between the Iga ninjas and the Matsunaga family. The Yuqiu family's prior suspicion was confirmed that Matsunaga Hide had really joined forces with the Iga ninjas.
The actions of the Iga ninjas were most likely to cooperate with Matsunaga Hide's alienation plan.
After breaking through another wealthy family's camp, Beishin ambitiously wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeves and smiled as he watched the Ashigaru collect the piles of heads, weapons, weapons, flags and other trophies one after another.
Transported back to the camp. Although this expedition failed to capture Iga as expected, it can be regarded as making a lot of achievements in Yamato. With this record, we can finally shut up those old guys.
.And those annoying Iga ninjas did not continue to chase him out after he left Iga country. People are in high spirits during happy events. As a noble son, Kitano Nobuo would never go to the battlefield in person, but he was in a good mood.
This time, he actually wanted to go to the battlefield to express condolences to the soldiers.
Kitano Nobuo shuttled between the messy Yamato people's camps, enjoying the compliments and greetings of his subordinates with satisfaction. Every ashigaru who met him knelt down and saluted respectfully, praising his martial arts, which made him proud.
Kitano Nobuo felt as if he was standing in the clouds.
However, a disharmonious figure ruined the beautiful artistic conception in front of him. An ashigaru-head held a piece of paper in his hand and hurriedly ran towards Nobuo Kitakura.
"What's wrong?" Bei Nobuxiong frowned and asked in a raised voice, somewhat unhappy.
"Your Highness." The ashigaru ran up to Nobuo Nobuo in three steps and then knelt down and kowtowed a few times. Then he picked up the piece of paper in his hand and handed it to Nobuo Nobuo.
"What is this?" Bei Nobuxiong took the piece of paper. It was a piece of paper with a lot of cigarette ashes on it, and the corners were still yellow. It was obviously rescued from the fire.
"The ones we found from the main account were burned. This piece of paper was blown to the side by the wind, so it just didn't get burned." Ashigaru's body was trembling nervously, "Your Highness... look..."
"I will definitely work hard to prevent the misunderstandings and conflicts caused by His Highness Bei. I deeply apologize for the damage caused. All troubles will be properly resolved later. Please be patient for the time being and refrain from any further hostile acts." Nobuo Bei
He read out the contents of the piece of paper in a daze. Then his eyes drifted to the lower right corner of the paper and the inscription: Yu Qiu Zhibu Shao Fuping. Next to the inscription, there was also Yu Qiuping's seal.
"What..." Bei Nobuxiong was so angry that he clenched his right fist tightly, almost crumpling the vital piece of paper into pieces.
"The people of Yamato have rebelled, and they have attacked our Oda family's troops. They are at war with the people of Yamato on all fronts... This guy is actually still having an affair with them..." Nobuo Nobuo sneered a few times, and there were already blue veins on his forehead.
He burst out, "Solve it properly... endure it for now... Hehe, the trouble brought by His Highness Bei... right?"
"Let me just say... so many people in Yamato are only willing to surrender to him, not to my father and us; people in Yamato only listen to his orders and ignore us; Iga ninjas are even more hostile to his troops.
He turned a blind eye and didn't even hit us when he got up to his nose. He just stared at our people and beat them..." Bei Nobuxiong became more and more surprised as he thought about it, and the anger just now was gradually replaced by panic. "I didn't expect those rumors to be true... I actually thought that those rumors were true...
I really thought it was Matsunaga Hide’s plan to divorce..."
"Immediately report to father and His Highnesses of the Oda family... Yu Qiupei has rebelled." Bei Nobuo put his hand behind his back and ordered in a deep voice, "Everyone is on alert and immediately breaks away from contact with the Red Leaf Army."
After Kitano Nobuo's secret message was sent to Kitadato, the main tent of the Oda family was immediately detonated.
"What are you doing? Is the Second Young Master crazy?" Ikeda Hengxing was so angry that he yelled, "How could Hongye rebel? How could Hongye rebel? Is there anything wrong with his mind? I would rather believe that he rebelled than I do. I don't believe that Hongye will rebel!"
"Then how do you explain this piece of paper?" Hazuya Nobita shook the piece of paper that Kitano Nobuo sent along with him, "You are the most familiar with Momiji. This is Momiji's seal and notes, right? Those wealthy families in Yamato are leaving.
Before I could burn it, it was captured by the Second Young Master."
"Is there anything wrong with what is written in this letter? If it weren't for the fact that the second young master was messing around in Iga to grab credit, would our good Yamato strategy be turned into this?" Ikeda Hengxing spoke to Yu Qiuping without hesitation, loudly
He yelled: "Second Young Master has become very capable. It's just that he ignored the deployment of the entire army in order to gain credit. Now he dares to frame an important minister?"
"Are you still protecting him? Are you still protecting him at this time?" Kawajiri Hidetaka scolded Ikeda Tsuneaki as his junior with dissatisfaction, "Are you a retainer of the Oda family or a retainer of the Amaki family?"
"But at that time...it was true that someone from the reinforcements of the Yamato people attacked the second young master first." Hori Hidemasa analyzed with a solemn expression on the side, "Although the second young master's behavior was excessive, it was indeed the Yamato people who attacked first..."
He clicked the piece of paper as he spoke, "If I remember correctly, this letter was found from the camp of the small wealthy family that first attacked the Second Young Master. If His Highness Hongye wrote to those who were affected,
It’s okay for the small wealthy family to comfort them, but isn’t this the culprit of the rebellion? Why did Hong Ye write to him?”
"This..." Ikeda Hengxing was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.
"The previous rumors may not be groundless..." Hori Hidemasa bit his lip and placed his left hand on his forehead deeply, "Whether it's a tax increase, whether the Tamba hostages are released, or whether the Imagawa clan really receives them... My lord has been doing it again and again recently.
If you humiliate His Highness Hongye, His Highness Hongye will definitely feel dissatisfied..."
"Kutaro, do you think the red leaves will react?" Ikeda Tsuneaki shouted at Hori Hidemasa in disbelief.
"I'm not sure... but combined with the many doubts before... it seems very likely now." Hori Hidemasa nodded with a pale face, not daring to look into Ikeda Hengxing's eyes, "Immediately report to the lord... His Highness Hongye is
The most important minister of the Oda family, this matter is serious... Once something changes, the entire Kinki region will collapse, which is not something that we can afford."
"I don't care, I don't believe it." Ikeda Hengxing stood nonchalantly at the door and blocked the door with his arms stretched out, "Don't even think about reporting it to any of you."
"Hengxing, how long has it been and you are still fooling around?" Kawajiri Hidetaka also roared at Ikeda Hengxing angrily, "Do you want to ruin the foundation of the Oda family? How can that traitor of the Imagawa family be trustworthy?"
"I don't care, you are not allowed to send the letter to the lord." Ikeda Hengxing snatched the piece of paper and stuffed it into his arms. At the same time, he patted the handle of his knife and shouted viciously, "I will go myself.
Find Hongye, and I will ask him personally how he did it. Before that, none of you are allowed to tell the lord, otherwise don’t blame me, Hengxing, for being rude."
"Are you crazy? If that guy rebels, you will be like a sheep in a tiger's mouth..." Hōya Yorōryō hurriedly took a step forward, but was directly scolded by Ikeda Tsuneki:
"Impossible, he won't rebel!"
After that, Ikeda Hengxing ran out regardless. He knew that no matter how he threatened, his colleagues would definitely report the news to the entire Oda family, and he would not have much time left.
