Chapter 38 Arrival(2/2)
"Naizangsuke?" Oda Nobunaga looked around and saw no shadow of Sasaki Narimasa.
"Sasa-sama seems to be in a very unstable mood..." Hidetaka Kawajiri hesitated on how to word it, "He is...resting in the back tent. Do you want to call him over?"
"Forget it," Oda Nobunaga shook his head, "I will tell him later that he will be the next head of the Sasa family and tell him to cheer up quickly."
"Where is Masaji's body? Where is it?" Oda Nobunaga asked again.
"We are trapped in the city." Sen Kecheng said with a gloomy face, "My subordinates are incompetent."
"Is that so?" Oda Nobunaga glanced at Chiri Castle. A forest of red leaves on the wall was particularly eye-catching. "What's going on with those Imagawa troops? Why don't they put up flags with red leaves?"
Everyone looked at each other, no one could answer Oda Nobunaga's question.
"Presumably they have also seen Yu's army." Oda Nobunaga snorted disdainfully, "Send someone to persuade them to surrender. Those who know the current situation should surrender."
"Lord, they have killed so many of our brothers and Lord Sazu, and now they can be suppressed at once, how can we let them go!" Hiroyuki Hiroyuki said with some excitement.
"There is not enough time." Takigawa Kazumasu dissuaded, "The soldiers are constantly on the road and need to rest. It is getting late now, and it is estimated that they will not be able to take it down before nightfall. They will have to move back by then, and they will not be able to fall into the city tomorrow."
"If it is to persuade us to surrender, we can continue to move forward early tomorrow morning. We don't have much time, and reinforcements from the Imagawa family are expected to arrive soon." Takigawa Kazumasu continued to explain.
"And that man, who can defend the city for two days in your hands, is indeed a talent." Oda Nobunaga smiled slightly.
"Lord, I can stay behind to monitor Zhili City and protect the retreat." Sen Kecheng suddenly said, "Lord, please don't waste time on the small town and attack Anxiang City quickly."
"Mori-sama, this is too dangerous." Naomasa Namasa interjected, "Narumi and Takake also have many Imagawa troops. Shibata-sama and Sakuma-sama who are left behind to guard Okehazama do not have an advantage in strength. If they are here again,
Hidden dangers are buried here, and the consequences will be endless.”
Sen Kecheng did not continue to talk, but began to think.
"No matter what, let's send someone to persuade him to surrender first." Oda Nobunaga picked up the folding fan on the ground and nodded at Maeda Toshiie among the horsemen. "Inuchiyo, go there. When you get there, take a look. If it's
If it's Sena Ujitoshi, there's no need to persuade him to surrender. If it's someone else, ask him clearly about his official position first, and then tell him that the Oda family is willing to let him lead the old tribe and give him a fief of 1,000 koku, while his official position remains unchanged."
"If he doesn't surrender." Oda Nobunaga's brows flashed with a trace of sinisterness, "We will find a way to directly hold him hostage and force him to open the door. If that doesn't work, we will lure him to the city wall and we will snipe him with the iron artillery team.
After this is completed, you should immediately escape on your own, and our army will attack the city."
