Ando Castle, July, 11th year of Heavenly Majesty

"Maori moves"

The news was reported as soon as I returned to Ando Castle.The Uesugi Expedition was finally over, followed by a confrontation with the most powerful Daimyo Maori family in the West.The premonition of a war that never stops coming.

As expected, the rest of the family did not see any upset.

Because I knew that if I could move, I would only have this timing.

Although there are still people located in the Uchiuchi and China regions, there is definitely a Maori family who ask for a gap in Toranaga's eyes now that the four elders, led by the Oda family's principal, are absent.

That's why I turned my back on you.In order to create an opportunity to exhaust the main forces of the Maori Shining Gen community and the Maori family.

However, the assumption disappeared into a bubble.Nothing else, with the words of Takumi Ogawa--



"I would like you to add the Maori family to the Oda family."

Zawari and the ministers were upset by what Ochikawa said.Some of them tried to stand up, but when they held their gaze on it, they once again looked at the Takashi Ogawa view.

This man looks straight at me with splendid behavior.The report from the vine is far too far-fetched.

Therefore, when I turned my gaze to the vine, which was said to be not enough to take the view of Takashi Okakawa, I bit my lips with regret.

I understood the approximate circumstances of the situation.Perhaps the vine was eaten up.After exposing his unreliable appearance, he raises his reputation from everyone with a brilliant standing behavior that overshadows his reputation at once.My grandfather did it when he was young.

It is simple, but it is not unusual to overturn a rating once given, and most people are crushed according to their previous reputation.Therefore, the destructive power when overthrown is unimaginable.

Regardless of whether it was aimed at or not, the rumors circulated by the vine with the ability to speak were used by Ogawa as they were.

If so, that expression will scold you as well.

Now, the question is not whether to accept the Maori family's offer, but to explore the true meaning of Ogawa.

"... is that the Maori consensus?" There would have been a reciprocal non-combat treaty or a choice to conclude a friendship treaty as an ally.Why do you want to go under your own umbrella? "

As everyone's gaze concentrated, he turned his suspicious eyes toward Ogawa and asked.Then, Ogawa answered instantly, mixing laughter without moving at all.

"Hahaha, this is a play, this is a play.It makes sense that all all allies should be under the Oda family's umbrella.If so, entering into a master-subordinate relationship from the beginning will not be a problem.Rather, it would be more convenient for the Oda family. "

…………

I have nothing to say to what Ochikawa said.Don't answer that. As the head of the Oda family, I was struck in a very painful place.

While staring at me without denying or affirming, Ogawa continues.

"And considering the threats of the Nanbarb and the Tang, we should rule the world as soon as possible. In Ninomoto, only Masaru Omi can hold the instruments that govern the world."My lord is thinking the same as someone else. "

Southern Barbarian Tang. Sure, Europe and China.My grandfather told me that he was an unwary opponent, and the Maori family knew about their threat.

But there's one thing I can't figure out.

"...... Why do you think there's only one instrument left to rule the world?" Then you are saying that you are lacking in strength.Even though you're a relative, you're just a family member.Isn't that a bit too much of a mouth? "

He nods vigorously to agree with me.It would be too rude of you to talk about it in a negotiated way.

However, there was no upset in Ogawa's eyes.

"The Maori don't want to see the world."

"... why?"

It was as if the world was asserting that it did not need it, and unexpectedly moving its eyebrows.For me to really aim for the world, the previous statement seemed to be ridiculed.

While receiving such anger from me, Ogawa continues with a cool face.

"... there is only one reason why I don't want to be in the world."My lord, Maori Shimen, the fourteenth generation of Maori family, has no means of ruling the country, no means of ruling the heavens.When a person without a weapon carries a load that exceeds his or her allowable weight, he or she always involves a large number of human lives and destroys himself or herself.That is, you must not be the ruler.Therefore, a certain person came to Azuchi. "

Ochagawa's words gave everyone a stunned expression.Indeed, Ogawa's words are sharp.

The King of Fools, who is chosen by blood only, kneads the country into mischief, and ultimately leans on the country.The more you look at history, the more rotten you are.

But you can't tell your master that you're not the vessel so far... "

"... there are two outstanding uncles in Shining Origin."Isn't there a way for you to aim at the world by supporting the Luminous Essence? "

Pointing at Ogawa, he asked, and he laughed mockingly.

Alone, sir.

"... Alone?"

Yeah, I'm alone.

Ogawa's answer did not change, even though he asked Ogawa again, tilting his neck unintentionally.

He exhaled as he looked up at the ceiling.Because I understood the meaning of the words.



"Maori moves"

This report was sent from the White Ladies First Place infarction.Before I went to Echigo, I had a lot of white lilies sneaking into Maori territory.It would be a natural vigilance in the face of the interruption of the one-year pact of non-combat.

Therefore, the infarcts were able to quickly detect the flow of suspicious objects in the territory, but one question arose when examining the infarcts report.

The number of moving objects was too small and biased.

Sincerely, if you intend to fight the Oda family, even though it will undoubtedly be an all-out war, the collected supplies will be about one company.The location is also concentrated in the territory of Māori Ieyasu Yoshikawa Motoharu.

Ogawa's movements were also suspicious, acting as if they inhibited Yoshikawa's movements.

Answers derived under this circumstance.

It was only a civil unrest.



Despite the unexpected confusion, I finally put my thoughts together and turned my gaze down to Ogawa.

"I really appreciate the offer of the Maori family.Let's heartily celebrate the birth of new people who wish for Taiping under heaven. "

Haha!

For a moment, Ochikawa's expression colored.

Then, a cold voice was covered to block it.

But...

"This project is not enough for you as a negotiator."Ashikaga, who is the head of the Maori family, along with Māori Ikemoto and you, is in hiding.You are responsible for taking both of these people to Ando Castle.That's where we're going to start. "

"... hah! Haha, I understand."

With a deeply lowered head, Okakawa looked sideways, and the Great Hall behind him.

The servant who came after him in a hurry suggested that he should surround Takumi Ogawa as a hostage, but he immediately rejected it.

I had no intention of taking Ogawa hostage.If you want to escape, just escape.At that time, I will only be ashamed to say that I am a coward who cannot be placed above the samurai who has broken his promise.

Besides, my eyes didn't look like a man who flinched on his promise.If they do, I'm sorry I couldn't see the sole.



And July 23rd.

Both Māori Ikemoto and Ashikaga Ashikaga ascended the castle to Anjo Castle.
