Now that the Oda family has a big business, dragons and snakes are naturally mixed up, making many things more and more difficult for people to understand.

The four counties of Shimonowari are where Oda Nobunaga started his business. Many retainers of the Shiba family also came from here. The relationship between the two parties is inextricably linked.

The old Owari samurai family least wanted to see Shiba Oda start a war, and they were also the main force secretly betting on both sides to leave a way out.

On the contrary, the Nishimano samurai family, which was conquered by Oda Nobunaga, stood firm.

At that time, the Oda family had just captured Mino Country. Because Owari and Mino were of similar size, Oda Nobunaga could not possibly swallow them all, so he concentrated his efforts to capture Higashi Mino.

The Nishi Mino samurai were sent by Oda Nobunaga to attack Kitai Ise to prevent them from affecting their digestion of Higashi Mino. Therefore, the Nishi Mino samurai gained considerable territory and interests in Kitai Ise.

Nagashima is located at the mouth of the Kiso River and on the border of Owari and Ise. The Nishi-Mino samurai family used to go down the Kiso River and conquer the land of Northern Ise along the way.

At this time, Nagashima had been invading the Oda family's territory, which was along the coast of Ise Bay and Kiso River.

On one side of Ise Bay is the Atsuta Shrine trading circle founded by Oda, and along the Kiso River is Nishi Mino's new territory. The people who hate Nagashima most are Oda Nobunaga and the Nishi Mino samurai family.

In addition, the marriage between Nobunaga and Oda Nobunaga symbolizes the political alliance between Mino and the Owari samurai family. If Oda Nobunaga wants to separate, the Mino samurai family will certainly feel uncomfortable.

They don't care about No-kun, but they care about the political significance of the dissolution of the marriage. The political status of the Nishi-Mino samurai family in the Oda family will inevitably decline.

Ise Country, Omi Country, and Echizen Country are newly conquered places. The retainers with the most say in the Oda family are still the Owari and Mino factions, and they are also the main force of the army.

Oda Nobunaga knew that letting Akechi Mitsuhide sneak into the Oda family and make noises would not be beneficial to the subsequent Saba-Oda War, and would easily lead to discord and division among the retainers.

But in the long run, Oda Nobunaga needs to condone Akechi Mitsuhide's promotion of the Genpei merger. This is a temporary pain that must be tolerated in order to dissolve the marriage with Nogun and then marry Yoshigan Shiba.

Niwa Nagahide knew Oda Nobunaga's helplessness, and she could only comfort her.

"Oiden, in fact, Owari also has voices that support the war, such as Hirate Fanhide."

Oda Nobunaga glanced at Niwa Nagahide.

"Mi Wuniang, are you trying to comfort me? Are you going to cause trouble for me?"

Hirate Hohide is the granddaughter of Oda Nobunaga's teacher Masahide Hirate. Oda Nobunaga has been dissolute since he was a child. Hirate Masahide committed seppuku and implored Oda Nobunaga to change his ways.

Although Oda Nobunaga was disobedient and still went his own way, he still had great affection for this teacher and looked at her descendants differently.

The Hirate family has a difficult life, and now only Hirate Masahide's granddaughter, Hirate Genhide, is serving as an official in the Oda. She is young, ambitious, and wants to get ahead, so she is naturally passionate about war.

The Owari Young Faction headed by Hirate Genhide is different from old samurai families like Shibata Katsuie who have already had enough to eat and drink. They support the war with the Shiba family this time.

First, when the young man debuted, the Shiba family had already left Owari, and the two parties did not have the old friendship they had back then.

In both cases, the Spo family is at its peak, which is a great opportunity for young people to achieve great success through military exploits and achieve great success.

But in Oda Nobunaga's view, what she needs is not the lack of strength of Hirate Fanhide and other stupid young people, but the core strength of the Owari faction such as Shibata, Takikawa, and Sakuma.

Niwa Nagahide's words were not so much to comfort her, but rather to make her see clearly that the Owari faction was laying flat.
