Now Naota Ogino feels a little regretful. If he had agreed to the proposal of the Takayama Sect, although the territory would be temporarily taken back, if he could make contributions this time, he would probably return the territory to himself. Otherwise, how could he avoid the shame of the people in the world?

Besides, the Hatano family is now trapped in his city. Once he can really defeat the enemy, with his personality, he will probably use the power of great victory to unify Tanba. Only in this way can he be able to stop the next wave of offensives from the Oda family. He will definitely not miss the good things that can win the whole country without losing his power.

Although it is already the season of spring and flowers blooming, when Ogino Naoshima thought of this, he couldn't help but sweat. The more he thought about it, the more reasonable he was. He had been hostile to Hatano before. Although in recent years, his strength was farther and farther away, he did not take action because of the threat from the Oda family. Now he fell into the trap. If he didn't take this opportunity to deal with him, it would be strange.

Ogino Naomasa's idea was exactly Hatano's idea. A few days ago, although Hatano seemed to have opened the city and released these powerful troops into the city under the persuasion of his retainers, it was not the case, but because he thought that this was a great opportunity for his family to unify Tanba. At that time, he only needed to continue to trap the heads of these wealthy families in the city and send some troops to take over the territory. In this way, the troops would be free from blood and could be captured with lightning speed. Because the time was short, when the Oda army came to attack next time, the Danba would be like an iron barrel. Although the stone height was not high and the territory was not large, as long as the management was properly carried out, the Oda army could be blocked from the territory.

Of course, if the Takayama Clan did not lead the troops to help this time, he would probably have never thought of such a skill. But since the enemy attacked, the name Takayama Clan has never been cut off in his ears. So he remembered that the Takayama Clan could defeat Takeda and capture Shinno with just tens of thousands of stones. If he had hundreds of thousands of stones, would he still be afraid that Oda would not have succeeded?

Nao Okino was sitting in the main hall, but he felt more and more regretful. But after all, now that people are here, it is impossible to do anything to the Hatano family with their own strength. Just when he was feeling embarrassed, someone outside the door said, "Master Okino, your retainers and helpers are asking for a visit."

Naochi Ogino was a little dissatisfied with his thoughts when he was interrupted, and he was very unfamiliar with the name Suzuki. There were only a few retainers in this family. Didn’t he know him yet, but he never heard of such a person?

He was worried that he would not see him, but this fact was a bit strange, so he planned to meet him. Nao Ogino sat upright and said, "Call him in."

"See the lord," said Miyuki Ono respectfully after coming in. Since he was an insider this time, and the peasant soldier had just been promoted to a samurai, if he had a name, the flaw would be too great. Moreover, although he was not very famous in Takayama's family, he was also counted as one of the sixteen generals of the Takayama family. Although he was not capable, Miyuki Ono's name was gained from other adults in the family, and I'm afraid the other party should have heard of it, so before the mission is completed, the name cannot be used.

Seeing the person who saved his life that day, Ogino Naota's attitude was better. He was a more traditional samurai. So he treated Eunte more seriously and would not look down on him because the other party was just a peasant soldier at the beginning.

So he just heard him say kindly: "It turned out to be you. If you hadn't been there, I would have been killed on the spot." He said here. Ogino Naotachi thought for a while and then said: "Now you are already a samurai. If you don't have a name, you will be ridiculed. In this way, I will give you Ogino's surname and give you Naota."

After hearing this, Ono Miyuki gave him a name to him and also gave him Okino's nature. He could not accept anything. In order to complete his lord's mission, he had to be loyal to Okino Naomasa. If he accepted his surname and name, how could he say it clearly? Thinking of this, he quickly said: "My lord, you can be blessed with your subordinates. The lord's surname is really not worthy of it." Ono Miyuki almost said the official words he often said recently, but fortunately swallowed it back to his mouth and changed his words.

Nao Ogino was so angry that he could not help but be amused after hearing this. What a great honor to be given by his lord. He even refused. As expected, he was just a farmer before, and he couldn't even think of these things. However, since he said, how could he take them back? So he just heard him say, "What can you do? I saved my life, and it's okay to give my name according to my surname. Are you absolutely dissatisfied with this name?"

Seeing that Miyuki Ono could not push, if he pushed again, he would probably be exposed, so he could only say: "Thank you for the rewards of the lord. I will definitely kill more enemies for the lord in the future and make more contributions to my family."

Hearing this, Naochi Okino was not happy, but his face turned gloomy, entirely because Ono Miyuki's words pulled his mind back to his thoughts just now.

If Miyuki Ono was really a peasant soldier, he would probably not be able to see anything, but after all, he has been with the clan for many years and is now an important official of the Takayama family, so why can't the other party's worry expression be seen?

Seeing that Nao Okino Naoka was still not moving for a long time, Miyuki Ono could not help but feel flawed, thinking that he had revealed a flaw, so he took this skill to carefully recall everything he had done since he was mixed into the peasant soldiers, and then thought about his words and deeds, but there seemed to be no flaws. Since this is the case, what Naokino Naoka was thinking should have nothing to do with him.

However, it can be said that it is temporarily safe at this moment, so you should be happy. How could you be so frowning? It seems that this matter is definitely small. If you can find out one or two, it may be helpful for seizing this city.

Thinking of this, Miyuki Ono asked softly: "Master, please see if you look bad on your face. Is there anything difficult? If this is the case, please speak up if you are useful in the upper and lower areas."

Naota Okino then realized that Naota Okino had not left yet, and he was a little dissatisfied with him to ask about his thoughts. The Lord’s thoughts could not be asked by you, a retainer, but then he thought that Naota was just a peasant soldier before, and he had only been a warrior for a few days. He should not know anything about etiquette, and he could not blame him for this.

And at this moment, Nao Ogino was talking to someone to relieve the pressure in his heart. Naoko was so filial that he could be trusted. Although he had not been in office for a long time, he had saved his life. If it was really harmful to him, he just had to stand by and watch that day, so how could he risk his life to rescue him?

Thinking of this, Ogino Naosaki first looked around, and then said cautiously: "Nao Takashi comes up."

After hearing this, Miyuki Ono was overjoyed. It must be that the other party wanted to tell him some secret things. At this moment, in Hachikami City, it was probably related to the Hatano family. Thinking of this, he hurried forward and came one meter away from Ogino Naotsu, and then stopped.

After he sat down, he heard Naochi Ogino say, "Remember to what you say to you now, otherwise you will not be able to escape death, but even I will find it difficult to survive."

"Yes, please don't worry, lord, I will never go out to talk nonsense." Ono Mi replied quickly.

Although his language is vulgar, his attitude is indeed very satisfying to Okino Naosaki, so he only heard him ask: "The reason why Hatano Hideji kindly asked us to take refuge in the city is really vicious. Once the enemy retreats, he may seize the foundation of our family and other wealthy families. Now I am trapped in the city, and even if I want to resist, I have no strength. If this is the case, my family will not be able to escape the destruction."

After hearing this, Miyuki Ono couldn't help but feel nervous. He didn't think of this before, but just thought about how to complete the task, but now after hearing the other party's words, there is really a possibility. This is a great opportunity to unify Tanba. How could he not think of Hatano Hideji's talent?

But soon he began to be happy secretly. Naomasa Ogino said something to him, which was enough to prove that he was already disinterested with Hideji Hatano. If he could move him with him, then great things would be accomplished.

But then he thought about it, the lord said it clearly that day that he had no good feelings for these wealthy families. If he had made his own decisions, it would be difficult to explain to the lord. And maybe this was a fraud on the other party and he had important tasks before he could not fall into the trap.

Thinking of this, I heard Miyuki Ono say, "My lord, my subordinates think that it is very easy to deal with if Lord Hatano really has such a thought. The lord doesn't need to guess here."

After hearing this, Naochi Ogino's eyes lit up and quickly spoke, "How to test the other party's intentions?"

"This is simple. The lord just needs to go to see Lord Hatano. After meeting, he said he was worried about the safety of his territory. It was useless to go to the place where his army was in power. So he wanted to lead his army back to the territory. If the other party agreed, it would mean that he had no intention of dealing with his family. If he did not agree, he might be what he said to the lord and he would have to take action against him."

Ogino Naomasa did not help but curse himself in his heart. He was melancholy in this samurai mansion for several days. He only knew how to guess but did not act. He was even worse than this newly promoted retainer. He was too pedantic.

"Okay, that's right. You'll follow me to Tianshou Pavilion now. I'm going to meet Lord Hatano." After saying that, without waiting for Miyuki Ono, he got up and walked out. (To be continued.)
