Chapter 82 3. Owari Rebellion

Kobayata walked through the town and took Aji along the sea route to Omi. It was just like walking through the Tokai Street that the Lord Jibu Daisuke had never been able to walk in his life. In fact, it was mainly to see the Denagasa.

According to the plot of the novel, Kobayata should find the biggest tree here, peel the bark of the tree, and then write the eight characters "Imagawa Yoshimoto died here". Then put the trunk across the road and wait for Imagawa Yoshimoto to come and put on a good show.

Just kidding, how can such a thing be done? I guess if Imagawa Yoshimoto heard someone doing this, he would definitely not kill Oda Nobunaga but this person. You have a bad mouth! You have a bad mouth! I can't kill you!

Kobayata originally wanted to take a boat to Owari Atsuta Kanizu, but there was unrest in Owari and the boat refused to go. But he didn't find out anything from the boatman. Kobayata thought that he had acquaintances in Owari, so even if something happened, he could just go there and have a good meal. At worst, we can just take a detour. How can a living person be suffocated to death by urine?

So we passed through Mikawa Ansho Castle and entered Owari. The castles along the way, such as Narumi, Otaka, Washizu, and Kutsukake, seemed to be on the verge of a show of force. But it was not external, but internal. It seemed that there was some disturbance in Owari. Oda Nobumasa? Oda Nobumasa? Sasaki Yoshigane? Which scumbag was causing trouble again? There couldn't be any foreign invasion.

When we arrived at the Furuno area, we couldn't move at all. Moreover, the lord of the castle, Oda Kamisuke (Nobunaga), was still arresting men under the castle to serve as soldiers. All the ronin merchants who were stranded there were arrested. Kobayata gave the arresting samurai 300 coins to save himself and Aji. It was really a world of crows.

The samurai was honest. At least he was willing to do the job after receiving the money. He assigned a foot soldier to send Kobayata and Aji outside the castle town. In order to prevent them from being conscripted by other samurai again, it was a thoughtful consideration.

After Xiao Pingtai and Aji escaped from the ancient wild, they had to go to remote places. It happened that Oda Nobunaga's men were short of people to fight, and any social instability elements in Owari who had a little ambition had defected there. Fortune and wealth are sought in danger, and there was not even a bandit on the road.

Finally, they arrived near Kiyosu Katsubata and found a village that was not small. They stopped a few farmers to ask for directions, but it was too embarrassing. The Shinano accent and the Owari accent made the conversation seem like a riddle, and I couldn't understand it at all. After a lot of effort, they found the local lord's house. The local lord had been conscripted. There were a bunch of wives and children in the house, but a boy of twelve or thirteen was still the boss. Xiao Pingtai reluctantly communicated with him and finally asked about the location of Nakamura Township. He also spent a few dollars to buy a full meal for himself and Aji.

It was getting late, and the child decided to let Xiao Pingtai and Aji stay overnight. His mother obviously wanted to stop him, but he persuaded her.

At night, Kobayata let Aji go to bed first, and he chatted with the young head of the family. This man called himself Mizoguchi, but he could be called Kin'emon. This is Nakajima, and Kobayata had taken a long detour.

His father, Mizoguchi Katsumasa, went to the battlefield with Niwa Nagahide, and the old family members and foot soldiers in the village also left. The village had no defense force, so his mother did not dare to let outsiders stay overnight, and asked Kobayata not to blame him.

Kobayata was not an ignorant young man, and he kept saying that he was disturbing him. Then he had a long talk with this Mizoguchi Kin'emon. Although he was young, he was very curious and was very interested in the big and small things in the East, the local things and geography. He pulled Kobayata to ask questions.

When he heard that Kobayata had accompanied Yamauchi Yoshikatsu and Uesugi Masatora to fight side by side, and hundreds of people broke through the Odawara Castle defended by 18,000 people, he was even more excited, as if he was on the scene.

He also heard that the Hojo clan suffered a heavy blow and was split into several daimyo with more than 100,000 koku. He also sighed: The strong and tyrannical will eventually fall, like dust in the wind.

As for the scenery along the sea route, he also knew a lot from his father, and he and Kobayata were able to communicate and chat with each other. He also admired the overlord of the sea route, the giant of Suruga, and the powerful daimyo of the eastern country, Imagawa Yoshimoto. He also praised the laws and skills of the Imagawa clan in governing the country.

After a conversation, Kobayata found that this twelve or thirteen-year-old Kin'emon was a good young man who would have a promising future.

The next day, Kobayata and Aji said goodbye and left. Kin'emon also asked them to come again when they returned to Minami Shinano, and he would introduce his new friend to his father.

And from Mizoguchi Kin'emon, Kobayata finally figured out that it was not a rebellion by the old ministers or a counterattack by the guardian. After Oda Nobuhide's death, Hirate Masahide, who maintained the relationship between Oda Nobunaga and his retainers, died to remonstrate with Oda Nobunaga. The last buffer between the Nakono clan and the Suemori clan of Owari disappeared, and Oda Nobunaga and Oda Nobukatsu finally broke off their relationship and turned their swords against each other. The two sides had been fighting each other in Inohara for several days.

Shibata clan and Hayashi Sadano no Mori, the hereditary retainers of the four governors of Owari, both supported Oda Nobukatsu. As a result, the power of the Suemori Oda faction rose and had firmly suppressed Oda Nobunaga of the Kiyosu Oda faction.

Even Nobuhide's wife, Lady Tsuchida, who held some of the righteousness of the superior and the inferior, had entered the Suemori Castle, clearly intending to help her younger son kill her older son, who was also her own. I couldn't understand Lady Tsuchida's idea at all. She was so weak that she could actually kill him.

When she arrived at Suemori Castle, she instantly became the flag of the old ministers who protected the generation. We all killed Oda Nobunaga according to the wishes of Oda Nobunaga's biological mother. We are all innocent. His biological mother wants to kill her son, and we are also desperate. We can't just listen, who let her be the wife of the old lord Oda Nobuhide.

Their flag of biological mother was raised, which caught Oda Nobunaga off guard. He was caught in a situation of being besieged on all sides, and even some of his playmates who had grown up with him abandoned him and instead joined Oda Nobukatsu. Oda Nobunaga, who had no other choice, could only rush to the streets to capture strong men. In this way, more than 2,000 people were gathered, while Nobukatsu's side had 4,000 people sitting on the Diaoyutai.

The local local servants also took sides. A considerable number of local snakes had already smelled the smell of Oda Nobunaga's defeat. The ambitious elements who were originally wavering or undetermined had all begun to pay attention to Oda Nobukatsu.

As everyone can see, more and more forces in Owari are leaning towards Suemori Oda. This internal conflict between brothers is expected to end soon, and the head of the Oda family is expected to be replaced.

This idea is widely spread in Owari, and Kobayata has also found Nakamura Go.

Second update, go for it!
