Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 1038 Art of War

   "So, Duke Gundogan died suddenly after the war?" Liu Xing asked with raised eyebrows.

Alice nodded and said seriously: "That's right, Duke Gundogan died suddenly within half a month after receiving those awards, so his sons became what they are now; therefore In my opinion, that treasure is likely to be related to Duke Gundogan, and now I have a bold guess that Oda Nobunaga may have entered this mirage back then."

Hearing Alice's words, Li Hanxing on the side patted his thigh, nodded and said, "Yes, maybe that treasure was taken from this mirage by Oda Nobunaga himself, because from a historical point of view we can I found a problem, that is, Oda Nobunaga can be said to be two people before and after inheriting the family head. After all, there are many people with wrong names in this world, but there are still very few people with wrong nicknames, so' The nicknames of Owari's Big Fool' and 'Sixth Heaven Demon King' don't seem to be referring to the same person, do they?"

"Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that Oda Nobunaga deliberately hid his clumsiness, but from the point of view of later generations, we can clearly know that the Oda family at that time was a typical inferior and more than inferior; because Oda Nobunaga's father, Oda Nobuhide, was in a bad position. First, he gained control of the Owari area by the Spo family through various means, and then in order to seize the main city of the Oda family, the Furuno Castle, which is now Nagoya. Oda Nobuhide also played a conspiracy, after deceiving the trust of the castle lord of Furuno City, he pretended to be sick and brought his own men into the city to launch an attack."

"It is worth noting that at that time the city lord of Furuno Castle was named Imagawa Shifeng, and it is said that it is very likely to be the younger brother of Imagawa Yoshimoto, so when Imagawa Yoshimoto sent troops to attack the Oda family, he mentioned that he was for this Imagawa. Shi Feng recaptured Naguno Castle, so this is also an important conflict between the Oda family and the Imagawa family; in addition, the Oda family is also facing a family threat, that is, the Saito family in the Mino area north of the Oda family, The owner of the family, Saito Michizō, is just like Oda Nobuhide. He was originally just an ordinary businessman, and he obtained the Mino area by poisoning."

"Saito Michizō knows that although he is in the same position as Oda Nobuhide, Oda Nobuhide is also a nobleman, and he is a commoner. Now occupying such a large area of ​​​​the Mino area will definitely attract people. Coveted, so Saito Dozo thought of marrying the neighboring Oda family and let his daughter Guidie marry Oda Nobunaga, but as a 'Mino's pit viper', the reason why Saito Dozo would want In addition to wanting to form an alliance with the Oda family, another major reason for marrying the Oda family is that he heard that Oda Nobunaga was 'Owari's big fool', so he wanted to let his daughter control Oda Nobunaga. "

"Because the inheritance system on the island country side is also quite weird, if Oda Nobunaga in history keeps being stupid or fails in the Battle of Okehama, then Saito Michizō has a good chance of annexing the Oda family. A very interesting thing happened, that is, Oda Nobunaga directly debunked the purpose of Guidie; here we first set up an assumption, that is, this thing is real, not for future generations to elevate A fabrication made by Oda Nobunaga, then here we can see that Oda Nobunaga may really be a hypocrite, and he is quite clever, so what is his purpose?"

"escape!"

Liu Xing said affirmatively: "If Oda Nobunaga is really a smart person, then he should know very well that the Oda family was on the verge of danger at that time. First, because the Oda family was not in the right position, Owari's orthodox administrator, Spo The family has always been trying to find a way to get back what belongs to them, and the head family of the Oda family, the Oda family in Qingzhou, is also dissatisfied with their younger brother, of course, because the Oda family at this time has already bullied the shop, and their strength is strong. It is far superior to his own family, the Oda family of Qingju, so although the Oda family of Qingzhou seems to be in harmony with the Oda family on the surface, in fact, the relationship between the two sides has already cracked."

"The last and most important point is that the powerful Imagawa family is not far from the Oda family, and the Imagawa family at that time was much stronger than the Oda family. On paper, the strength could completely crush the Oda family. Shi Feng took back Nakono Castle' this justifiable excuse for war, so Oda Nobunaga should have been very clear at the time that the Imagawa family might go north to destroy his family at any time; and Oda Nobunaga heard that Saito Michizo planned to return his daughter to Butterfly When he married himself, he should also be very clear that the Saito family was also eyeing the fat meat of the Oda family."

"That's right." Li Hanxing continued: "According to historical records, Oda Nobuhide's subordinates were either a group of twenty-five boys, or they were junkies who were monks hitting the clock every day. There were not many people who were truly loyal to the Oda family. , Everyone waited for Oda Nobuhide to die like Zhu Bajie, and then they went their separate ways with the Oda family's 'luggage', so Oda Nobunaga at that time, after realizing this, was likely to substitute himself into Liu Chan He was going to pretend to be a fool to make a living for himself, and judging from Oda Nobunaga's comments at the time, it was really possible that he could successfully spend the rest of his life with the Imagawa or Saito family."

"Then, Oda Nobunaga encountered one of the most important turning points in his life, that is, Oda Nobunaga passed away at an early age, at the age of 41, which made the young Oda Nobunaga firm in his desire to Continue to pretend to be crazy and sell stupid ideas, because Oda Nobunaga is very aware that his foundation in the Oda family is unstable, and Yoshimoto Imagawa will soon come to trouble the Oda family when he learns of his father's death, so it is said that Oda Nobunaga was at that time. He chose not to keep his father's spirit alive and ran away in the dark."

"Because ancient cities basically closed their gates at night, not to mention the sudden death of the head of the Oda family, I think the gates of Furuno Castle at that time must have been closed and the guards stepped up patrols, so Oda Nobunaga wanted to leave the Furuno Castle. It was easy, so Oda Nobunaga at that time should have chosen to find a place to hide first, and then he was very likely to come to the store location of the No. 5 restaurant in the future, and then he was sent to this mirage, and finally returned with that treasure. In the real world, and after having that treasure, Oda Nobunaga had the ambition to perform martial arts in the world, and he stopped acting."

Liu Xing raised his brows and felt that Li Hanxing's statement was quite reasonable, because if he looked at the problem from the perspective of Oda Nobunaga at that time, he would definitely think that he was facing an unsolved problem. As an islander deeply influenced by China, Oda Nobunaga may really take Liu Chan as his example.

   "If that's the case, doesn't this overturn the legend that Oda Nobunaga got the treasure after burning Mount Hiei?" Alice said with a frown.

But before Li Hanxing could speak, Alice figured it out and said, "This seems to be easy to explain, that is, Oda Nobunaga wants to make a reasonable explanation for his previous performances, but it is impossible to tell others about him. Was it really cowardly before? As for why the legend mentioned the burning of Mount Hiei, I think it is very likely that someone from Mount Hiei got clues about the treasure, so Oda Nobunaga thought of killing it."

"Yes, many island temples at that time can be described as a nest of snakes and rats. Many bandits and bandits took their own money to shave or become monks after they couldn't get along. Of course, there were also many children of aristocratic families, and even family owners because of For various reasons, the temple was one of the most well-informed places in the island country, because everyone there." Liu Xing nodded and said: "Besides, Oda Nobunaga likes Western culture very much. Clothing, so this is also a piece of evidence that Oda Nobunaga may have come to this mirage."

"I think so too."

  The silent Sun Huiwen suddenly said: "Maybe Oda Nobunaga regards wearing Western clothes as a condition for the use of that treasure, or he is envious of the noble life in this mirage. After all, today's dinner is extremely luxurious."

Hearing this, Liu Xing couldn't help laughing and said, "Maybe this is the ancient version of the deformation meter? Although the economic conditions of the Oda family were good at that time, because the local products of the island country were not rich, Oda Nobunaga's food and clothing cost It is definitely incomparable to the noble life in this mirage, not to mention that this mirage is not a real world at all. It is not a problem to eat delicacies from mountains and seas every day, even mythical creatures, so all of this is extremely for Oda Nobunaga, who was still a young man at the time. It's impactful, so it's normal for Oda Nobunaga to start imitating it after he developed."

Alice sighed, shook her head and said, "If that's the case, then we might be able to find the traces left by Oda Nobunaga in this castle, because the Mirage basically won't do anything until it's cleared. Otherwise, we would not be able to find the yellow watch, but now the problem comes again, Oda Nobunaga was only a mirage who might have left as the last survivor, so how did he get that treasure? ? Although the side effects of that treasure are great, its effects are equally great."

"This is also the question I want to ask." Li Hanxing shook his head and said: "The other people who escaped the mirage as the last survivors, they are basically all out of the house, not only did they say they didn't get any rewards, And they didn't show any clues until they died under the watch of someone with a heart, so how did Oda Nobunaga become an exception? Could he really be the chosen one?"

"If it is the chosen person, then he will not be the main course of the Honneng Temple BBQ Conference." Liu Xing complained: "Do you think there is such a possibility, that is, the mirage is inseparable except for those ever-changing In addition to the side quests, there is actually one or even multiple main quests, and the side quests will only be started after the main quest is completed.”

   "Liu Xing, what do you mean, Oda Nobunaga actually completed the first stage of this mirage main quest to get the treasure and leave, and we are now in the second stage?" Li Hanxing said in surprise.

Liu Xing nodded and said seriously: "I think so, maybe the background story Alice just mentioned is the first stage of the main quest - Duke Gundogan leads the army to fight, and the person who enters the mirage is the Became his helper; if I remember correctly, Alice, you said that Duke Gundogan's abilities are not very good in all aspects, and every time it depends on luck to turn the tide, but I have other opinions here, That is, Duke Gundogan has Oda Nobunaga by his side to advise."

Having said this, Liu Xing looked at Alice and continued: "Although there was a Silk Road connecting the East and the West in the past, the exchanges between the two sides in other areas were very little, which led to the extreme differences in many aspects between the two sides. A big difference, let me ask a question like this, Alice, do you know how many books on the art of war were there in ancient times on your side of Europa?"

"Uh." Alice said with a frown, "It seems that there are really not many books, because the ancient military books on Europa are basically military notes and memoirs, and the authors are all based on a famous general. The point is to describe his performance in the battle. Although he also mentioned the formation of troops, he basically did not elaborate too much. The main content is still focused on the cause of the war and the collision of ideas between the various characters, so Liu Xing, you If I were to mention a military book like Sun Tzu's Art of War, I really can't think of it right now."

At this time, Li Hanxing raised his hand and said, "My captain also mentioned this before. He thinks that the ancient times, especially the West in the Middle Ages, are somewhat similar to our Spring and Autumn and Warring States affairs in China, although the countries are different. Conflicts between the two countries have occurred from time to time, but because everyone has more or less relatives, there is rarely a dead hand, and the war is only a part of resolving conflicts, a not too important part, So the war at that time was that the two sides first found a great plain to start the battle, and then the battle was started after the formation was set up."

"The reason why Cao Gui's war will appear in one drum and then decline again, and the third is exhausted, is because after the drum is beaten, the troops and horses of the two sides begin to fight, and the two sides go up and fight for a while and then call for gold to withdraw their troops; and the situation on the western side It’s almost the same, they simply surrendered when they felt that they couldn’t win, and then they could go home after paying enough ransom, so the art of war at that time was basically a bonus, and it was a little early before it officially appeared.”

   Liu Xing nodded.
