As the military advisor of the Luo family, Masaro sent Akaba Nobunosuke to the Mikushu area with the goal of cooperating with the Luo family's strategy for the Mikushu area. **The requirements for him seemed to be too strict.

But Masara, who knows Akabashi's ability, does not think so. In Masara's view, Yamamoto Kansuke and Akabashi Nobuyuki, who are also part of the Intelligence Pavilion, are the ones who are the Intelligence Pavilion who are the ones who are holding a sword and monitoring the retainers at any time to ensure their loyalty to the Luo family, then Akabashi Nobuyuki is the poisonous dagger in the darkness of the Intelligence Pavilion, which will give people a fatal blow in the darkness at any time. In short, in the specific command of the intelligence Pavilion personnel (especially the Black Hawk Ninja), only Akabashi Nobuyuki is the most suitable one.

This time Masara let Akaba Nobusuke enter Mikushu and allowed him to play the role of the intelligence cabinet in the local area, Akaba Nobusuke started to act like a dragon entering the sea. For example, the previous actions of the Shimazu family and the Ida family to jointly launch a battle to support the Sakai family, as well as how the Shimazu family and Ito family arranged the defense of the Luo family in the border areas, how the internal situation in the Hinata country, Satsuma country and even Osuki country were passed on to Masara in a timely manner under the auspices of Akaba Nobusuke, so that Masara could start the layout quickly and in a timely manner.

Please note that what is mentioned here is that Akaba Nobunosuke can provide information to Masara in a timely and quickly. In the information transmission environment of this Warring States Period, the relevant information can be quickly transferred to Masara after the enemy takes action. It can be seen that Akaba Nobunosuke made in advance predictions and preparations during this period.

In addition, not only that, after the Luo family's army entered the Hinata Kingdom and Satsuma Kingdom, with the support of Akaba Nobusuke, the personnel of the Intelligence Pavilion appeared to spread rumors and even actively persuaded the surrender of the local local tribes in these areas. From this point, on the one hand, we can see Akaba Nobusuke's decisiveness, and on the other hand, we can also see Akaba Nobusuke's ruthlessness. Because once the intelligence Pavilion personnel who appeared were arrested or refused to be arrested during persuasion, the outcome would be very miserable, but Akaba Nobusuke's ruthlessness was really ruthless in order to achieve his goal.

What can better reflect this is that in the following period, some wealthy families who were obviously loyal to the Ito family and Shimazu family were assassinated. During this period, the Black Hawks of the Luo family damaged many people, but also successfully assassinated many people, causing even more chaos in the Mian Kyushu area.

In order to shake the Ito family and the Shimazu family, the people in the two regions believed that their expedition team to the Toyogo country was destroyed by the Luo family. Akaba Nobusuke sent people to the Toyogo Toyosaki family territory and re-excavated the bodies of the Shimazu family and the soldiers of the Ito family when the conflict between the Theater family and the three-way coalition forces in the Toyogo country were in conflict. After handling it, they were directly transported to the Satsuma country and the Hinata country, and exposed the bodies to the open area by creating some attractive incidents.

Take the Shimazu family as an example. Even after his death, people who were treated like this were the two brothers Shinnai Tadamoto and Shinna Tadayao of the Shinna family, which is an important pillar of the Shinna family. You should know that during the Warring States Period, people generally respected those who died in battle. Akaba Nobusuke suddenly made such a move, which even scared many of his retainers. Originally, the retainers were already very concerned about the Intelligence Pavilion, but now they are even at a level of fear (this is actually beneficial to the rule of the Luo family).

After Akaba Nobusuke made such a move, it directly led to the Satsuma Kingdom. Many local people in Hinata Really believed in the news that Dana was besieged and even killed by the Luo family in the two places, which naturally accelerated the chaos in these areas and the shaken of some fence-bearers and even secretly surrendered.

Among them, the Shimazu family in the Satsuma State is the most obvious. Of course, this is also related to a previous action by the Shimazu family. Before going out to support the Saki family, in order to stabilize the rear, Shimazu Kiku specially separated the retainers who had brothers or clansmen in the family. Some of them stayed in the Satsuma State to assist his legitimate son, and the other part was taken by him. In fact, they wanted to take these people around him as hostages. As a result, they shot themselves in the foot. Taking the Shimazu family as an example, the bodies of the two people who were the main pillars of the family appeared in the Satsuma region, which really made the Shimazu family strange. Not only did they quickly recall the Shimazu army stationed under the Shimazu family's legitimate son Shimazu Yoshihiko back to their territory, but they even refused any outsiders to enter the residence of their family. The lords around the Shimazu family were panicked, fearing that something would affect them.

Of course, since Akaba Shinnosuke made so many moves, he naturally would not forget that in Osumi Country, he had tried to persuade Katsumoto Sumi, the retainer of the Mori family of the Ganfu family, so he had prepared an assassination event for Katsumoto Sumi. But Katsumoto Sumi was really smart and was about to leave Takayama Castle of the Ganfu family. As a result, something seemed to be wrong, so he quickly returned to Takayama Castle and asked the Ganfu family to send someone to escort them to the harbor, and finally left by boat. The assassination plan of Akaba Shinnosuke failed as a result.

But even so, Nobunosuke Akaba did not stop his actions. This time, he came to Masara from Minami Kyushu. On the one hand, he directly reported the situation in Minami Kyushu in detail to Masara (after all, the situation may not be explained too clearly in the letter. If it were later, Nobunosuke Akaba would definitely become a subordinate that his superior likes), and escorted the Intelligence Pavilion, Masara Takasaka, Li Huamei and other troops to Masara to Masara. On the other hand, he came to personally select some smart guys from the captives of the two coalition forces of the Shimazu family and Ito family to cooperate with his next operation in the Minami Kyushu area.

It is precisely because Masayoshi had the move to send someone to give it a high-profile gift to Ito Yoshiyuki, thus getting a good opportunity to provoke the relationship between Ito Yoshiyuki and Shimazu Takahiro.

In the military tent, Masarara was messing with Haidongqing on his shoulders while asking Akaba Nobuosuke: "Do you think Ito Yoyoshi and Shimazu Takaha would be fooled?"

"Master." After hearing Masara's inquiry, Akaba Nobunosuke, who was kneeling, bowed respectfully first and then said, "With the lord's talent, I'm afraid I had expected Shimazu Takaha would never be fooled. That's why I chose Ito Yoshiyu. I believe that with Ito Yoshiyuki's temper, I don't have to rest tonight after seeing the gift given to him by the lord, and maybe I have other ideas. I really admire the lord's actions!"

"Haha, you!" Masara looked at Akaba Nobunosuke's slightly flattering expression, and couldn't help but chuckled and shook his head and said, "Okay, I know your plan. You can decide on the specific candidate for the captive, and I support your plan. Pay attention to safety."

"Yes, lord. Please rest assured. I will definitely succeed this time. I will wait for good news from me." Akaba Nobunosuke said honestly and honestly.

"Okay, go." Seeing Akaba Nobunosuke's expression suddenly appearing, Masaru was a little helpless and had to send him away.

In fact, Akaba Nobunosuke is such a person. He is cunning, has many tricks, is vicious, and sometimes looks very flattering. Sometimes he seems very loyal and honest, and seems to be a changeable person. But this is Akaba Nobunosuke. He took the initiative to present his true side to Masara to observe in order to actively express his loyalty to Masara.

Just as Masara from Kyushu finished his negotiations with Nobusuke Akaba, the distant Tokai Shin-kuanga Prefecture State, Matsuhei Motoyashi (that is, Tokugawa Ieyashi, who had not yet been renamed Tokugawa Ieyashi) fell into trouble again.

On this day, he was warm with his wife Sena Hime, but extremely heavy footsteps came from the corridor outside the room.

"Lord, I know that my wife is with you, can I disturb you?" The person who came was Yalejia.

In desperation, Matsuhira Motoyasu paused his warmth with Sena Hime and replied with a little unhappy: "Come in."

So Malasuke walked into the room, but his brows frowned and he did not hide his displeasure. So he deliberately did not look at the two of them and sat down by the door.

“Are you finished sowing?”

"Yes. I do these crop work because I can't forget the Okazaki people. I can't stop crying when I sow."

"I understand. Your tears will become fertilizer and you will soon get something unseen."

"Don't joke, lord!"

"Who is kidding? But do you know that there are tears that cannot be shed and tears that have dried in this world?"

Marasuke looked outside, clenched his fists and placed it on his knees. It was not that he did not understand that "a man would not cry easily when he had tears." Marasuke sometimes wondered: he used to tease Takechiyo, who was young. Now he is often teased by Marasuke. Does he already have a dependent heart for his lord? Marasuke's abilities are indeed impressive when he thinks of Mrs. Suruga, Marasuke feels extremely depressed.

The Matsuhira family has been fond of women for generations, and sometimes caused disasters due to sex. Matsuhira Kiyoshi forced his wife to marry Mizuno Tadamasa and became a concubine in the old biological mother Huayangyuan, which made the people of Okazaki feel depressed at that time; Matsuhira Motoyashi's father Hirotaki's death was also related to the one-eyed Hayaya woman...

How can all this not make people sigh at the beauty? Although Matsuhira Motoyashi is very lonely, he married Sena Hime, who was six years older than him, and became a relative of the Imakawa family. Masarasu always thought it was a huge mistake. What's more, he calmly stroking his wife's high bulging abdomen in front of Masarasu. How could it be?

"Lord, you probably have heard from your wife about your first expedition?"

"I've heard of it."

"Since it was the first time to go out, the battlefield was probably on the border of Ukraine."

"Maybe it's near Kasaji, Nakano, and Dagao."

"Does the lord have a chance of winning? On the one hand, this expedition is to test the lord's strength, and on the other hand, it is also to see if the lord is suitable to be a pioneer when entering the capital. It is of great significance. But our opponent is the invincible Oda army."

"Probably, right."

"You know, aren't there any uneasiness?"

"You," Matsuhei Motoyasu closed his eyes and shook his head, "You must never be discouraged before the war begins."

"But if you lose the battle, there is no room for recovery." Marasuke was more dissatisfied with Sena Hime than Matsuhira Motoyashi. He avoided Matsuhira Motoyashi's gaze and continued: "What should I do if I lose my first battle?"

"Hahaha." Matsuhira Motoyashi burst out laughing easily. Senahime's face had become very ugly: "Marasuke, do you have no other thoughts except hope that you will be defeated on the first expedition?"

"Strange. The lady thinks that Lord Imakawa gives Okazaki the opportunity to regain his strength? Without elite troops, how can he defeat Oda's army that is so powerful that he is Ohara?"

"What the hell are you talking about?" Semine Hitomi's eyebrows stood up. She pushed away Matsuhira Motoyashi's hand and stood up suddenly: "Your words are really inexplicable. It seems that you are blaming Lord Yimoto for deliberately making things difficult for Okazaki. If it weren't for Lord Yimoto's help, you might have been annexed by the awesome Oda family."

When Marasuke heard Sena Hime speak so harshly, Marasuke couldn't help but feel excited: "Madam, I Marasuke has something to say. If there is any inappropriate speech, please forgive me."

"Okay, let's hear it."

"I am not saying that Lord Imakawa has no good intentions. However, his kindness cannot satisfy Okazaki. As for the lord, he has been holding the Yuanfu ceremony for several years, but Lord Yoshimoto still sent Miura Ueno Suk and Iio Tomomaema as castle agents to station Okazaki Castle. How does the lady view this matter? Does the lady think that the lord's ability is worse than that of Miura?"

"I don't think so!" Senahime shook her head in anger, "The Lord is the son-in-law of the Imakawa family. Yoshimoto takes special care of him... I can only say that Okazaki is too extreme."

"Madam!" Matsuhira Suktor looked at Matsuhira Motoyasu. Matsuhira Motoyasu lay on the tatami, listening silently with his eyes closed. So he continued: "What Matsuhira Suktor said is not the concern and care that the wife said. I mean, why is Imakawa still not as capable as Miura? Imakawa's lord is used as a striker, why don't he send his lord back to Okazaki, so that Miura, who is stronger than his lord, will take the lead? If the lord is fair and safe, even if Miura, Miura will be defeated, we will defend our homes to the death. But Imakawa instead asked the lord to be a striker to attack the well-prepared Oda army. I just said that I was defeated in the first expedition, is it impossible?"

"It's your extremeness." Sena Hime retorted in a trembling voice. "Master Yoshimoto asked the Lord to do what Miura, the two generals of Mizuno could not do, which is a proof of Lord Yoshimoto's trust and recognition of his abilities. What is it not fear if you say that?"

Yalezhu's expression was bitter, "I'm very embarrassed when you say that. Madam!"

"What?"

"Please forgive me for the offense. But if the lady is sincerely considering the lord, the lady and the soon-to-be-born child, I have something to ask: I ask Mr. Imakawa to allow the lord to return to Okazaki Castle and send all the generals stationed in Okazaki Castle to take the lead..."

As soon as he said this, Matsuhira Motoyasu suddenly spoke: "Masasuke, be careful! Sena Hime is my wife, and I can only point fingers at her. Don't be too much." Matsuhira Motoyasu's voice seemed very strict at this time.

"yes."

Yalezhu quickly leaned on the tatami with both hands, "Forgive me...Forgive me...Forgive me." His gray beard trembled and he did not raise his head for a long time.

Senahime simply trusts Imakawa Yoshimoto, but Marasuke cannot do it. He has not returned Okazaki Castle to this day, and he still lets the Okazaki people act as the vanguard when entering Beijing. What a cruel trick! Imakawa Yoshimoto undoubtedly wants Matsuhei Motoyashi to lead the remnants of Oda troops to fight the well-equipped Oda army to fight to the death. Once both sides suffer losses, Imakawa Yoshimoto can lead the main force into Obashi.

Therefore, the Okazaki people and Okarashi Jun will inevitably have a more tragic confrontation than the Kotosaka decisive battle and the Battle of Anxiang Castle. The Oda army will undoubtedly suffer a huge blow. But the Okazaki people will probably be wiped out with many years of bitterness and resentment. Because they know all this, Marasuke couldn't help but speak in front of his wife. After being scolded by Matsuhira Motoyashi, he had to keep silent.

Looking at Marasuke who was crying with his hands on his face, Matsuhira Motoyasu said, "Senior, this is a troubled time!" He paused and said softly, "All the calculations are useless. We are already standing at the intersection and must go in the most promising direction... Lord Imakawa just pointed out a Yangguan Avenue for us... Isn't it? You might as well think so."

Before we knew it, it was dark and the strong fragrance of rice came from the kitchen.

"Yes. I understand... Then, let's go." Marasuke stood up quietly and bowed his head to the angry Sena Hime.

Senahime stared at her husband's face, and Marasuke's words brought her a sense of anxiety. That is, war will inevitably bring death. If Matsuhira Motoyashi was defeated on the first expedition... This is a lingering and hateful unlucky thought. She leaned on Matsuhira Motoyashi and said, "Sir... Do you have a chance of winning?"

"Yes. Don't worry."

"What if Zhang Jun fights to the death... If the adults are at least good, what should the children do?" Semei Hime said.

Matsuhira Motoyaki quietly put his hand on Seminehime's shoulder. "Don't worry. It's not good for health."

"Ah. It hurts again, ah..." The pain began. Semeihide grabbed Matsuhei Motoyaku with force, her body trembled constantly, and bit her lips in pain. "Sir, it hurts so much! Ah...ah..."

Matsuhira Motoyao hurriedly shouted, "Come..."

Three maids responded. After Matsuhira Motoyashi handed Sena Hime to the maids, he stood up. He didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow, but he walked out of the bedroom that turned into a temporary childbirth room in a heavy mood and came to the corridor.

"Another child is about to be born..." Matsuhei Motoyaki returned to the bedroom, but was restless.

What will you do in the future? What kind of child will you have? In this chaotic and chaotic world, if you want to survive, you must kill, but why are new life still born? If this is an era worth celebrating for birth, it would be fine, but it is not the case. But it is not completely without joy. Matsuhira Motoyashi walked back and forth in the room and soon came to the courtyard. "Naminosuke, come with a wooden knife."

At this time, the sky was full of stars and there was almost no wind, but there was still a pine tree in the courtyard of Chigen. The west mountain was angular and stood tall. Nanosuke handed the knife to Matsuhei Motoyao. "I'll let me know after the child was born. I'll stay here." After that, Matsuhei Motoyao took off his shirt and waved the wooden knife.

But where is the target of the attack? He put his posture right, took a deep breath, and tried to be thoughtless, but he heard the noisy sound in the kitchen.

"Ah!" He suddenly waved the wooden knife. At this time, a meteor suddenly flashed across the sky. I hope this is a happy child. Grandfather was twenty-five and father was twenty-four, all died at the hands of others. Matsuhei Motoyashi felt that his death was approaching. The first battle was a different matter. If he became the pioneer of Imakawa Yoshimoto's entry into Beijing, his chances of survival were really slim. At that time, would this newly born child crawl and could he stand?

"Ah! Ah!" Matsuhei Motoyao whispered, trying to drive away all kinds of fantasies. He repeatedly waved the wooden knife and slashed the air hard. Gradually, the child disappeared from his mind. The birth of a child is not something that human will can dominate, it is the will of heaven.

"Ah! Ah!" He sweated profusely. He had a strong impulse to cut down everything-Imakawa Yoshimoto, Oda Nobunaga, himself, Senahime, retainers and Void. Should he regard everything in the world as a dream, or continue to be persistent?

When he stared at the starry sky, his mind was firmly occupied by the former; when the noise from the kitchen came from his ears, he had to return to the present world. Finally, he realized that as long as a person is alive, although there will be trembling in the depths of his soul, he has to cut and slash, irritate, and struggle all the time. There is no other choice.

Just as he was posing and secretly lifting his breath, Yalesu's voice came: "Lord, what are you doing?" Perhaps because of the conversation just now, or the chaotic pre-natal period, Yalesu could not calm down.

The edges and lines of the Nishiyama became clear. The moon had already come out. Matsuhira Motoyaki ignored Masaru and his eyes were still staring at the tip of the wooden knife.

"Lord, I was impulsive just now and said something I shouldn't have said." Yalesuke approached Matsuhei Motoyaku and said to himself: "The moon is coming out, and it's about to give birth. I think it's time for martial arts to flourish this time until your next child grows up."

"What do you think I have a chance of winning this time?"

"Wei Zhang Jun is no longer the same as before."

"I know. But I'm ready."

"Is it the determination to die happily?"

"You!" Matsuhei Motoyasu finally turned around and looked at Marasuke, put down the wooden knife in his hand, "I have made up my mind, why not tell you clearly. Don't mention it to others."

"You mean...decision?"

"I will never be bound by my wife and children. I have been freed from that shackle."

Marasuke took a step forward and stared in Matsuhei Motoyaku's eyes. "The only ones who can bind me are Okazaki's surviving retainers and their years of hardship. Do you understand what I said?"

"Yes. I understand."

"From the day I left Jun Mansion, I will be completely yours. I will not think of my wife or children..."

"Master!"

"So, you must be patient and wait until the war begins."

“Yes…yes.”

"War, war, constant war. How can life, death, success or failure be dominated by human power? This kind of thing is beyond my ability, and it is something that Lord Imakawa and Nobunaga cannot control. Senior, look at the sky."

"oh."

"Countless stars are twinkling."

"oh?"

"A meteor flashed over again. Which star belongs to Matsuhira Motoyashi, do you know?"

Yalesu shook his head.

"I don't know either. But it is radiating light, even though it will fall and die."

“Did you say ‘do your best to be destiny’?”

"No, I mean, even if someone advises you not to waste your time, you still have to persevere and work hard."

"yes."

"In order to survive, people will fight for it with wisdom and strength until the star of life falls. This is the fate of mankind. I am no exception. Therefore, if I do not have enough wisdom and strength, please prepare for death with me."

Matsuhira Sora choked up. Matsuhira Motoyasu meant that even if he abandoned his wife and children, he would sacrifice himself for the Okazaki people. In fact, there was no other way. Matsuhira Sora also had this meaning: because his wife and children will definitely be abandoned at that time, so don’t plan their strategies to deal with Yoshimoto.

"Don't tell anyone else."

"Yes...yes." After seeing Matsuhira Suspension nod, Matsuhira Motoyashi waved his wooden knife again. "I might be lucky."

"I do not understand."

"If I was not lucky, I might have been killed at the Otsu Ferry when I was six years old. I was often plotted against when I was a hostage in Retan, but I still lived safely until today. This is probably because God favored me..." At this point, he suddenly waved the wooden knife.

At this time, Hirai Shinosuke shouted in a panic in the corridor. "Sir! Sir! Have given birth to a boy like a pearl!"

"What, have you given birth to a boy?" Before Matsuhira Motoyasuke answered, Marasuke spoke first, "You go see him immediately, lord?"

Matsuhira Motoyasu handed the wooden knife to Matsuhira and walked towards the corridor, but he stopped suddenly. The baby boy is also called Takechiyo. This new life is about to become the heir of the Matsuhira family, and his fate is incredible. Just as he was born from the mother of the Mizuno family, which is equivalent to Matsuhira's enemy, the mother of this baby boy is also from the Imakawa family, who is secretly resentful to the Okazaki people.

"Master, do you want to see him immediately?"

Matsuhei Motoyashi was still motionless, and Marasuke was already running into the room excitedly. Since he was a baby boy, he would go on behalf of the young lord to give the baby a seal name, a cervical knife and a first-time bow.

"Sir!" Hiraiya Shinosuke shouted again.
Chapter completed!
