Nobunaga is a witch

Oda Nobunaga was able to defeat Mino so quickly, except that she used troops quickly and extremely unexpectedly, coupled with the relationship between elite soldiers.

In fact, there is also the unstable relationship with Mino itself, and the reason is very... miraculous.

This starts with Mino’s previous situation.

Saito Yoshiryu himself is a brave warrior, and his retainers are not weak, as can be seen when he confronted Oda Nobunaga before.

Although Nobunaga's side did have the reason for Yoshimoto Imagawa to attack Owari and retreat, the formation of Yoshiryu Saito's side was also a temporary choice.

This is due to a genius military adviser of the Saito family, Hanbei Takenaka.

The Takenaka Hanbei inherited the position of family governor when he was young, and he became an official Saito Yoshiryu, and met the menacing Oda Nobunaga when he first went into battle.

Although Hanbei Takenaka is young, he is extremely calm in his tactics. He expected that Oda Nobunaga would send troops to Mino, and it would be a guest army to fight, not to mention Owari and Imagawa Yoshimoto who were watching, and he must want to make a quick decision.Therefore, it is suggested that Saito Yoshiryu does not directly face the Oda Army, but puts on a defensive formation like a tortoise.

Such a tight formation made Oda Nobunaga feel that he had nowhere to speak for a while, so after hearing the news from Imagawa Yoshimoto, he retreated from Mino cleanly.

It's not that she can't take Saito Yoshilong down, but she doesn't have time to spend time with Saito Yoshilong here.

Unexpectedly, when Oda Nobunaga retreated, Yoshiryu Saito, who was a little bloated because of winning Saito Dozo, would go to heaven even more.

He thought he was a unparalleled good general, so soon after he took down Saido Dosan, he forced Oda Nobunaga back.

What's the use of that Oda Nobunaga, who took the so-called Mino Rangokuni certificate and came to replace his father, no, he attacked him on behalf of Saito Michizo, and ran away in despair.

The ecstatic Saito Yoshiryu soon fell into the realm of debauchery, and his Inaba mountain castle in Mino country was impregnable, so there was nothing to worry about.

Yoshiryu Saito was relieved, but Hanbei Takenaka was not.

Although Oda Nobunaga did not take down Mino this time, Hanbei Takenaka saw that this black team was unusual in the confrontation with the Oda Army.

Moreover, this person dared to challenge Imagawa Yoshimoto head-on, he was an ambitious and confident person.

He also holds the previous lord's Meinong certificate of surrender, whether in public or private, he will not let Meinong go so easily.

It's okay to have Imakawa Yoshimoto dragging people around now, but if he frees up from there, he will definitely not give up on Meinong.

With such worries, Hanbei Takenaka advised Yoshiryu Saito to take precautions early.

Saito Yoshiryu didn't care at all, "Hanbei, you think too much. Now that Imakawa Yoshimoto Shangluo is winning, it is still uncertain whether Oda Nobunaga can survive him."

Although he was admonishing the lord, Hanbei Takenaka never thought that Imagawa Yoshimoto would fall into the hands of Oda Nobunaga, but he also had another kind of worry, "If Oda Nobunaga loses to Imagawa Yoshimoto , form an alliance with Imagawa Yoshimoto, or directly surrender to Imagawa Yoshimoto?" The young and handsome young man looked serious, "Imagawa Yoshimoto is in a hurry to go to Luo, and there is a high possibility that he will agree to this proposal, so wait for Oda Nobu If Chang Teng makes a move, he will definitely attack Meinong again."

Saito Yoshiryu waved his hand, "Oda Nobunaga has not surrendered to Imagawa Yoshimoto so far. It can be seen that he is an extremely self-willed person. If you are disabled, Oda Nobunaga may have died at the hands of Imagawa Yoshimoto, so there is no need to worry."

Hanbei Takenaka admitted that Saito Yoshiryu was right, but he did not relax. After seeing the military appearance of the Oda Army, he always felt that things would not be so simple, "But..."

Before he could finish speaking, Saito Yoshiryu had already interrupted him, "That's it, I still have things to deal with, Hanbei, you should step back first."

Yoshiryu Saito had said so much, Hanbei Takenaka could only bow and retreat no matter how unwilling he was, "Hi."

When he came out from Saito Yoshiryu's place not far away, when he heard the sound of music and dancing coming from the house, Hanbei Takenaka couldn't help frowning slightly. The lord was not like this before, since he won Inabayama Castle...

Shaking his head, Hanbei Takenaka straightened his sleeves, returned to his usual gentle and elegant appearance, and walked out like a somewhat weak nobleman.

Just two days after Hanbei Takenaka admonished Yoshiryu Saito, a shocking news came.

Oda Nobunaga not only confronted Imagawa Yoshimoto head-on, but also just won him, and by the way, he also beheaded the head of the first bow in the Tōkaidō.

In Meinong City, everyone was shocked, and there was an uproar in the meeting hall.

Inaba Ryotsu, known as the Mino Three, sighed deeply after being shocked, and sighed to the other two people around him, "No wonder the old master sighed like that before." Although he is stubborn, the fact is that it is still To recognize.

The other two couldn't help but nodded, the old lord's vision was still accurate, and Mamoru Ando sighed, "The old lord's vision is really extraordinary."

Such words happened to be heard by Hanbei Takenaka, and he was a little curious, "Father-in-law, did the old master mention anything?"

"It's Hanbei." Ando Mamoru loves his clever son-in-law very much. Although he is not in good health and cannot directly fight the enemy on the battlefield, he is smart, and being able to command others to win is also a skill.

In addition to Ando Shoujo, the other two of the Mino trio also had a good impression of Takenaka Hanbei, so they repeated to him what Yoshiryu Saito said after meeting Oda Nobunaga.

"That's it." Hanbei Takenaka nodded, seemingly calm on the surface, but there were huge waves in his heart.

He claims to be talented and has always regarded himself very highly.

And this is indeed the case. From his first appearance against Oda Nobunaga, it can be seen that he has a unique vision and precise calculations.

I didn't expect that although I saw that Oda Nobunaga was extraordinary, he didn't have the sharp gaze of the old master. After meeting someone once, he could conclude that this person was extraordinary.

Seeing Hanbei Takenaka looking thoughtful there, the three of Mino looked at each other. They had the same heart, and they didn't want to stay and serve long ago when Yoshiryu Saito betrayed his father. up.

It's just that they still have some feelings for Mino and the Saito family, so they want to see what Yoshiryu Saito is like with a glimmer of hope.

If he can still take some responsibility and develop Mino stronger, then even if he feels sorry for the old lord, it is not impossible for them to stay and serve. After all, they are loyal to Saito.

As a result, after the flash in the pan at the beginning, Saito Yoshiryu's performance really disappointed the Mino trio.

So after getting the news that Oda Nobunaga defeated Imagawa Yoshimoto, they decided to switch to the Oda clan. Mr. Nobunaga is the son-in-law of the old lord, and he is also the rightful heir recognized by the old lord, and so Excellent, if they don't go to him, where will they go?

After making up their minds, they now see Hanbei Takenaka like this, wondering if they want to pry the corner of the wall for the future lord?

Hanbei is the most outstanding genius strategist in Mino.

At this time, Oda Nobunaga, who was far away in Owari, never expected that someone would pick up a hoe for her.
