Chapter 48 assassin

They don't understand what Nobunaga is thinking?However, they had already followed him on the seven-kilometer sea trip from Atsuta, passing through Kuwana and landed, and stayed in Yokkaichi for the first night. Of course, the horses were also transported by boat. When they came here, this group of people were all the people who crusaded Imakawa Yoshimoto. No one noticed the ranks of Oda Nobunaga around here. Special attention should be paid here, because they are different from others.People who stay or pass through here will think that they are big businessmen, traveling with valuables.At that time, the local wild samurai guards were required to transport valuables, and Hachisuka Xiaoliu was very competent, and he appeared in front of the public with an out-and-out attitude of a wild samurai...

That night in Yokkaichi, nothing happened. The next day, they set off from Yokkaichi to Oifen. They should have taken the left road to Kumano, but they took the right to Suzuka Pass. "Commander, Kumano should be heading from this direction!" Tokichiro said as he came to Nobunaga's horse with a smile on his face. "Yes!" Nobunaga replied indifferently: "Well, in my memory, if you go to the right from here, you will leave the border of Omi, and then you can enter the capital from the other side. Japan's land is so Big, you can go there from there, don't worry."

"I see." "Also, Monkey, have you noticed the fifteen or six ronin who are following us? What kind of people do you think they are?" "Huh? Fifteen or six ronin..." When he said this, he suddenly noticed the group of people wearing dark hats behind him.They also came from the right side of the road. "Well, it looks suspicious." "Haha... You monkeys can be careless sometimes! But they should be rewarded for their quick actions." "Who are you talking about?" "I'm talking about that big monster Mino!" "Oh, that, you mean the assassin sent by Saito Yoshiryu?"

"Of course, who will follow behind me, Nobunaga? Well, go and call Kanemori Gorohachi..." Fujikichiro immediately left the horse's side and passed Kanamori Gorohachi to the back. "What's the matter?" "Did you notice those people following us?" "Behind us, is anyone following?..." "You people are really careless. I have seen them at the foot of Qingzhou City. I made a trip on the clang car to lure them out on purpose. You know someone from Saito's family. I want you to pretend to leave the line and go visit. " "Yes! I see."

"Also, when I said to make a tram, you have to do it quickly, otherwise they might kill you. Haha... Traveling is still a very interesting thing after all!" At this moment, Kanemori Gorohachi cut off the buttons of the straw sandals, left the line, and hid in a hidden place by the roadside. (It turns out that the reason why he called us Dangche is for this reason...) This is not something that just happened today. Nobunaga's intellect is already amazing.Gorohachi took off the handkerchief around his waist, tore it into strips, and made a rope with unskilled techniques. And when the distance between the two was about two feet, Gorohachi was really startled when he finally saw the faces of these ronin who were approaching gradually. As Nobunaga said, this was the retainer of Mino Saito's family.

And those are not ordinary people, Tsukahara Buden, Hirota Uncle, and the disciples of the martial artist with them, and the disciple of the martial artist Meijin Genjisai is also among them.In addition to Genji Sai, Genta Komaki, who obtained Saito Michizo's head in Nagaragawa, and Gosuke Inugami, who is said to be the best ninja, were also mixed in.There are also Nagai Chuzaemon, Makimura Ushinojo and Kawamura Setaemon, etc. Kanemori Gorohachi knows six or seven people... In this area of ​​Echizen Ichijo Valley, the famous swordsman Umezu Genjisai founded the Nakajo-ryu, a school of his own, and he is a unparalleled figure in this near country.And I heard that he followed Yilong and taught swordsmanship in his home.And select outstanding people from among the disciples to form a team of assassins.

(This is a very important thing!  …) It turns out that in places where there are many human eyes, the clang car is the best way to avoid them.However, during such a long journey, it is not always possible to walk in crowded places, such as this mountain road in Suzuka Ridge, which is so remote and difficult to walk, what should be done? What if the assassin launches an operation?Kanemori Gorohachi desperately ran back to Nobunaga's side. "Something is wrong!" "Gorohachi, what are you talking about? We're traveling, what's wrong?" "As you said, the enemy is the assassin of the Saito family."

"I'm talking in my sleep again. I told you that it's the assassin of the Saito family. I asked you who the assassin is? Tell me!" "It's Umezu Genjisai, the best ninja Inugamigosuke, Genta Komaki who killed Mr. Dozo's head, Nagai Tadazaemon, and Makimura..." "Okay, okay." Nobunaga said: "I understand. Shut up and follow me." "According to what you say, we'll be fine." "What? No problem... In a person's life, there is no problem." "That would be..." "Hahaha... With these fifteen or six people, it's not that cheap to take my Nobunaga's head. And if you want to stab me to death, you can control Owari Ichikuni, who is that idiot Inabayama? Bad idea for him!"

This night, they came to a place called Guan to spend the night. I plan to start from Seki tomorrow morning, and this place is also the downhill of Suzuka Ridge.Their first attack target was the place where they descended the cliff slope. There are only two hotels that can provide accommodation here. Nobunaga's party lived in the hotel at the entrance of Tsuruya Yoshihei, while the assassins lived in the hotel in front of them in Tamaya Rizaemon. Here, at night, the wind is cooler and the sound of insects is everywhere, which makes these people's travel feelings more intense.However, no one is intoxicated by the beautiful night.

(tomorrow……) (Be careful tonight.) Facing the dinner, everyone seemed to be looking forward to it, whispering to each other. Only Nobunaga didn't change his face, drinking the wine brought by the shopkeeper with a smile on his face. After eating— "Hey, let's go!" "Huh? Are you leaving at night?" Fujikichiro responded hastily. To avoid the assassins, it is not unreasonable to use the night to cross this mountain road. "Fool!" Nobunaga smiled and said: "I, Nobunaga, how could I be afraid of those ten or twenty assassins and walk that mountain road at night? Come on!"

"So, you told us to follow, not to cross the mountain road, otherwise what would we do?" "Don't you understand? We are going to kill the assassin. Come on!" Nobunaga said so, he picked up his love sword, stood up, and faced everyone with a smile on his face.
