Oda Siniang was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't realize that Aochi Shigetsuna was already sweating profusely and standing outside the door.
Although Aochi Shigetsuna was the sister of Kenhide Kamao and the aunt of Kamao clan, and was appointed as the elder of the family, which seemed to hold great power, she was adopted to the Aochi family after all, and her identity was separated by one layer.
Because of her fault, the ronin continued to harass the residence. In the end, seven or eight of the Morihime warriors were killed. The ronin also broke into the niche and disturbed the peace of the ancestors.
If the matter cannot be settled smoothly, Pu Sheng Xianxiu and Pu Sheng Clan will definitely replace her.
Aochi Shigetsuna coughed and cursed at Oda Siniang.
"Climb out of here quickly! Don't disturb the ancestors' spirits!"
Seeing the fierce appearance of Aochi Shigetsuna, Oda Siniang couldn't help laughing. Those tears that had been accumulated for ten years and could not be cried, finally poured out at this moment.
Oda Siniang's heart has never been so clear.
It turns out that our life and death have never been important in their eyes! Our lives are not as good as this ancestral armor that has long been dimmed under the erosion of time!
What are we...
Oda Siniang used her last strength to pick up the armor and threw it at Aochi Shigetsuna who looked frightened outside the door.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.."
Aoji Shigetsuna didn't know what Oda Siniang was going crazy about, and she dared to smash the Kamo ancestor's armor so randomly. She was so frightened that she quickly stepped forward to protect the armor, and then shouted.
"Kill her! Kill this madman!"
The iron cannons fired again, and two projectiles from close range hit Oda Siniang hard in the chest. Then the spear-wielding samurai rushed in and stabbed her torso with their spears.
Aochi Shigetsuna was holding the great armor of his ancestors, his face was ashen, and he said coldly to the retainers beside him.
"There is a gag order. There is no such thing as seppuku by these two ronin. The Ji warriors who died in the family were all killed when they went out to exterminate the evil party.
Also, clean up this place quickly and throw this madman’s body outside the city to feed the wild dogs.”
"Hi!"
Aochi Shigetsuna felt uneasy. For the sake of her own future of power, she must cover up this matter, absolutely!
———
Kyoto.
The autumn wind is blowing, and the fallen leaves are returning to their roots. Yoshitsugi Otani is riding on his horse, looking at the gradually bare branches, and his mood cannot help but be infected by the depressing and chilling atmosphere of autumn.
The busy farming season was almost over, and Oda Noboshi was so impatient that he led his troops into Mino Country and surrounded Oda Nobsumi in Gifu Castle.
There are clouds in the sky, they are born from the same roots, so there is no need to rush into mutual conflict.
This Oda civil war has finally come, and the first to use weapons is precisely a close branch of the Oda. It is a common fratricide in troubled times.
Shibata Katsuie's Northern Army Regiment is being mobilized, and has made a transit request to Asakura Kageki of Tsuruga County, hoping to rush to the aid of Oda Nobsumi, who is at a disadvantage.
However, Hashiba Hideyoshi, who secretly instigated Oda's letter bag, put on a selfless appearance at this time, found Niwa Nagahide, and once again emphasized the harmony in the Oda family.
Both His Highnesses, Oda Shinbao and Oda Nobsumi, are of Oda blood. Retainers should not be involved in the disputes between them, lest the Oda family be completely divided and lead to confrontation.
Moreover, His Highness Oda Shinbo is also the successor of His Highness Kijimaru, the nominal regent and supreme leader of the Oda family.
She punished His Highness Oda Nobuchen, and the retainers should persuade him to make peace instead of raising troops to attack.
Hideyoshi Hashiba once again stood on the moral high ground, forcing Niwa Nagahide to come out to support her and oppose Shibata Katsuie's reckless actions.
In Shibata Katsuie's view, Niwa Nagahide was trying to be biased, and Hashiba Hideyoshi was harboring evil intentions.
Shibata Katsuie married Oda City Lord and claimed to be an Oda clan member. Hideyoshi's remarks were tantamount to depriving Oda City Lord of any possible inheritance.
Furthermore, Oda Nobsumi was someone who was protected and supported by Shibata Katsuie.
If Shibata Katsuie stood by and let Oda Nobsumi be easily destroyed by Oda's envelope, then no one in the Oda family would listen to Shibata Katsuie anymore.
No matter what, Shibata Katsuie had to send troops, and her tough attitude forced Niwa Nagahide and other neutral Oda retainers to side with Hideyoshi Shibata and block the Hokki Army regiment moving south.
Hideyoshi Ikeda, Tsuneki Ikeda, and Nagahide Niwa ascended the throne and mobilized Oda retainers from all over the country to gather in Omi Province and march north to stop Shibata Katsuie.
The two sides went south and north, and finally faced each other in Kitaomi, which happened to be the venue for the decisive battle between Yoshigan Saba and Oda Nobunaga.
Back then, Sanada Nobushige broke through the Oda family's defense line at Shidake and threatened Oda Nobunaga's safety, forcing the Oda army to retreat and helping the Shiba army gain an advantage at the negotiating table.
Today, two armies are facing each other again, and a war is about to break out.
Yamashiro Kingdom and Omi Kingdom are close to each other, and Kyoto is not far from the battlefield.
Although Takashima County, where Isono Umasa lived, was separated by two places, Otani Yoshitsugi, who was ordered by the saint to be stationed in Kyoto, could still feel the sharpening of swords and murderous spirit there.
As for the Shiba family, with the gradual injection of Kanto funds, the run on Shiba's warehouse has subsided, and the financial crisis in Sakai Port is being lifted.
With his hands free, Yoshigan Shiba once again set his sights on the Oda family in the civil war, and seemed to be interested in taking over the Oda territory again.
As the general stationed in Kyoto by the Shiba family, Otani Yoshitsugi is the observation post at the forefront. Naturally, he is cautious and considers every thought.
At this moment, she was riding a horse and leading troops on the streets of Kyoto's castle town, doing daily patrols. The townspeople on both sides kowtowed to the ground and did not dare to raise their heads.
At this moment, a figure suddenly came out and wanted to grab the reins of Yoshitsugi Otani.
Behind Otani, Hatamoto had quick eyes and quick hands, and whipped the person who came.
The thin body immediately flew out and rolled on the roadside, scaring the surrounding townspeople to stay away for fear of harming the pond fish.
Otani Yoshitsugi took a closer look and saw that the person lying on the ground turned out to be a short man. Seeing that his chest was rising and falling, he suddenly started coughing violently.
Glancing at his heavy-handed Hamoto, Otani Yoshitsugi said.
"Go and see what's going on."
"Hi."
The flag was also angry. Who knew that this man was so mad that he dared to collide with the Lord's horse?
Fortunately, I reacted in time, otherwise, if I let that person hold the master's reins, I would be derelict in my duty as a guard.
Hatamoto dismounted, waved to several ashigaru to come forward and drove the surrounding townspeople away, and then used the barrel of his gun to flip the lying man away.
The man seemed to be seriously ill. He was severely whipped. His face was pale now, and he had more air coming out and less air coming in.
But even so, he still protected his chest with both hands, not knowing what was hidden.
Hatamoto said sharply.
"Bagaya road! Where did the savages dare to rush into the adults? Do you want to die!"
