At this time, a young man who was less than twenty years old and dressed in gorgeous clothes walked out of the woods surrounded by masked people.
"Your Highness!" After seeing this person, Yamanaka Shikasuke immediately knelt down with the masked men.
It turns out that this person is the only flesh and blood of the Nizi family - Nizi Katsuhisa. When the family was destroyed, he was secretly sent to a temple to become a monk by several loyal retainers.
When I found him at the age of six, I saw that Nizi Shengjiu's brows were full of heroism. The harsh reality made him completely different from his father who could be dissolute. After seeing him, many Nizi family retainers who wanted to give up regained hope.
.
"Are you Du Fei from Shikoku?" I saw that Nizi Shengjiu was young but very polite, which made Du Fei feel good about him the first time they met him.
Du Fei also said to her very respectfully: "Your Majesty Nizi, I rescued Yamanaka Shikasuke just to help you, don't we have a common enemy?"
"You are right. I don't know for what purpose you are helping us, but as long as we are fighting against Maori, our Nizi family will spare no effort!"
Du Fei immediately took them to meet Oda Nobunaga. Oda Nobunaga was very happy to see Nizi Katsuhisa and others: "Great! Tell the truth! What that guy Maori did in China (name of place) we
I can’t stand it either! Don’t worry in the future! We, the Oda Alliance, will fully support your revival! I will give you the Kamatsuki Castle that I just captured from the Akamatsu family! If you have any difficulties in the future, just tell me! I will definitely help you.
Restoring the country!"
Oda Nobunaga became very generous at this time, because he knew in his heart that as long as the Nizi family's card was played well, the Mori family would fall into an even more embarrassing situation! It would also be more and more beneficial to his own family!
He also wanted to hit all his power and deal with Motonari Mouri who was looking for trouble now, but the Oda family also had some small problems that needed to be solved at this time. The Matsunagahide whose life he spared didn't know what was wrong with him (
It is said that it was the instigation of the Mori family), but he went back on his word for the third time, and once again openly resisted the Oda family! First he refused to pay taxes, and then he beat to death the officials who collected taxes from the Oda family. Now Oda Nobunaga was furious! Even if
It was Matsu Nagahide who sent a gold mountain, so it would be difficult to ask for his forgiveness.
When the Nizi family entered Kamigetsu City, they immediately played a huge role. They actively recalled their old ministers, expanded their territory non-stop, and recruited troops. The Maori family wanted to send their troops south, but they were repeatedly repelled by the steel defense built by the Nizi family. This
This was Oda Nobunaga's usual trick - killing someone with a borrowed knife. To put it mildly, it was like keeping a dog to guard the door.
Because he had such virtuous ministers as the Ten Warriors of Nizi, Nizi Katsuhisa's strength soon surpassed that of the commander of the Northern Route Army, Akechi Mitsuhide, who was nominally in charge of him.
At this time, Akechi Mitsuhide was grieving the loss of his mother.
Because Oda Nobunaga went back on his word and killed Hatano Hideharu and others who were out of the city to negotiate, the Hatano family defenders in the city angrily tortured Akechi Mitsuhide's mother, who was a hostage! This is an extremely cruel method that originated from China.
Capital punishment in the Spring and Autumn Period.
After hearing the news, Akechi Mitsuhide, who had always been filial to his mother, his eyes darkened and he fainted! He almost went blind due to grief and pain. Akechi Mitsuhide deeply hated Oda Nobunaga who had done such an unjust act, although Yagami Castle followed him.
It fell quickly because there was no one to command it, but Akechi Mitsuhide lost his most beloved mother, and also earned Oda Nobunaga a bad reputation for going back on his word.
Akechi Mitsuhide was heartbroken and angry, but there was nothing he could do.
Because Oda Nobunaga was his lord, and according to Nakado, he was also his boss. Although he originally had a prominent position in the Asakura family, Asakura Yoshikage had great ambitions, so he could only put his ambitions and talents into practice.
At this time, it was his mother who persuaded him to defect to the Lord, so he accepted Oda Nobunaga's temptation, defected and became his retainer.
But this ambitious old man may not have thought that he died at the hands of his son's "Ming Zhu".
Oda Nobunaga had very complicated feelings towards him. On the one hand, Oda Nobunaga appreciated his talent and mercilessly attacked any comments that slandered Akechi Mitsuhide! On the other hand, he deeply disliked Akechi Mitsuhide.
Pretending to be for a famous family.
This time, Oda Nobunaga originally thought that as soon as the Hatano family died, the soldiers in the city would surrender immediately, and Mitsuhide Akechi's mother would be safe. He also wanted to deal with the troubles in Kinai as soon as possible, so he
Such a hasty and hasty decision was made.
Afterwards, he felt a little embarrassed, so he secretly applied for an official position in the imperial court for Akechi Mitsuhide - Hinata Mamoru.
As someone else's retainer, with an official position in the imperial court, only Shibata Katsuie and Akechi Mitsuhide had this honor in the Oda family. Akechi Mitsuhide's mood seemed to be calmed down a little, and the storm was about to pass.
but------
An unexpected event happened.
Tokugawa Ieyasu's son Tokugawa Nobuyasu had grown up at this time, and he had a falling out with Oda Nobunaga's daughter Tokuhime Surai.
Tokugawa Nobuyasuo was handsome and had a prominent family background, so he was inevitably surrounded by women of all kinds. How could Tokugawa, who was always jealous, tolerate being so cowardly? She would quarrel with him almost every day.
When the two of them were at their worst, they would often throw each other's clothes outside.
One day, Tokugawa Nobuyasu came home late at night. He smelled of alcohol and immediately fell asleep on the floor when he got home.
Tokki thought that he was looking for flowers and willows again, and immediately a fire broke out in her heart! She immediately picked up the clothes that Tokugawa Nobuyasu had taken off, and was about to throw them away. Unexpectedly, just as she picked up the clothes, she saw a letter floating out.
Tokuhime pulled out the letter suspiciously and read it, and was immediately frightened out of her mind! She immediately fled Tokugawa Ieyasu's territory overnight with a few accompanying Oda family guards, and revealed the ulterior content in the letter.
He told his father.
When Oda Nobunaga found out, he felt like he was facing a formidable enemy, and immediately gave Tokugawa Ieyasu an ultimatum: Your son Nobuyasu and your principal wife, Tsukuyama-den, had an affair with the Takeda family, and you are ordered to execute them immediately!
Tokugawa Ieyasu was shocked when he saw this letter! He didn't understand why Oda Nobunaga suddenly made such a cruel decision, but the unquestionable tone in Oda Nobunaga's heart made him understand that this was definitely not a joke!
Tokugawa Ieyasu experienced the most difficult night.
He has been dealing with Oda Nobunaga for so long and knows that he will never take such drastic measures for the sake of reason. It seems that his wife and children are really secretly having an affair with the Takeda family
It’s no wonder that his wife, Tsukuyamaden, was originally from the Takeda family. At that time, the three families of Oda, Tokugawa and Takeda were still living in harmony. In order to stabilize their relationship, Takeda Shingen married one of his nieces, Tsukuyamaden.
Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Unexpectedly, with the passage of time, the relationship that was originally close to each other would become the sworn enemy it is today.
In fact, he was slightly aware of the things his son and wife were doing secretly behind his back. He had been looking for an opportunity to have a good talk with them, but he didn't expect that the matter was suddenly revealed!
As a husband and a father, Tokugawa Ieyasu wanted to kill his wife and son at this time. Tokugawa Ieyasu has always been called the "old fox" by the world for his resourcefulness and cunning. But at this time, he really had nothing to do. Because he didn't have any
He had many reasons to refute Oda Nobunaga, and he had no capital to challenge him.
The most frustrating thing about living in troubled times is that your destiny is in the hands of others. With the joy, anger, sorrow and joy of others, your own destiny will be in constant turmoil.
Why
When Tokugawa Ieyasu offered the heads of his wife and children, Oda Nobunaga nodded with satisfaction. At this time, Du Fei looked at the two heads and didn't know what happened. When he listened to Oda Nobunaga's narration
After learning the whole story, he was shocked and dumbfounded: it turned out that the letter was sent by Takeda Katsuyori, the governor of the Takeda family. The letter exposed the Chikuyama Palace and Tokugawa Nobuyasu's plot to expel Tokugawa Ieyasu, and then Tokugawa Ieyasu was
All the details of Kawa Nobuyasu inheriting the family business and joining the Takeda family.
I see
Du Fei finally figured out the truth of the matter, but he still couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Even so, Oda Nobunaga has gone too far! I wonder if my father-in-law can swallow this breath?
