The cooperation between Akechi Mitsuyama and Mrs. Kikuko was very pleasant. *Mrs. Kikuko secretly started to join forces with various generals and princes from all walks of life before Hidetachi Tokugawa died. So when he came forward to announce the death of Hidetachi Tokugawa, many daimyos immediately expressed their request to Mrs. Kikuko to execute the rights of the shogunate instead of Hidetachi Tokugawa.

But Mrs. Kikuko said that she would never accept this motion. The reason was very simple because she knew very well that she could not make decisions on Akichi Komayama's territory at present. In addition, although the generals recommended her on the surface, if they really commanded her, because she was a woman and lacked the support of her confidants, she might not be able to control the situation. So it is more appropriate to let Akichi Komayama stand up at this time. She was not afraid that Akichi Komayama could use any tricks, after all, she was still very influential among the old subordinates of the Tokugawa Shogunate.

When Mrs. Kikuko proposed to let Akechi Komayama temporarily inherit the position of General Yi, many people were originally opposed. Most of them advocated that Hidetachi Tokugawa's son inherit the position of General. The problem is that Hidetachi Tokugawa's son is too young. Mrs. Kikuko took the excuse of being in a great enemy and her youngest son could not lead everyone to break through the siege and strongly asked everyone to let Akechi Komayama inherit the position of General.

In fact, Madam Kikuko did not have any good intentions when she did this. As soon as Akatsuki Guangshan took the position of the general, she wrote a letter to Yi Tusheng, asking Yi Tusheng to prepare early.

"I really didn't expect Akichi Koshan to be so fast, much faster than I thought. The powerful general Tokugawa died in his hands in an unknown way. It was really worth it. Haha. However, Mrs. Kikuko is really not simple. The strategy she arranged is really seamless!" After Yi Tusheng received the letter, he praised Mrs. Kikuko's strategy repeatedly, which made Zhang Pingtai next to him very strange.

Yi Tusheng was the only one who was around Zhang Pingtai, and he couldn't help asking: "What strategy is the prince planning to use?!"

Yi Tusheng shook the letter and said, "Madam Kikuko has already arranged it for me, we just need to wait for the opportunity." Zhang Pingtai said, "Doesn't you need to do anything?!" Yi Tusheng said, "It's not that you don't need to do anything, you just have to wait for Kikuko to act first. What we need to do at present is to contact Oda Nobuo and let him send troops to attack the city of Okawa County to put some pressure on Akichi Komayama." Seeing Zhang Pingtai's look puzzled, Yi Tusheng said, "When Madam Kikuko arrives at a certain time, he will try to expose the story of Akichi Komayama's assassination of Tokugawa Hidetaka. At that time, many daimyos will rise up to deal with Akichi Komayama. We can take the opportunity to send troops to destroy Akichi Komayama in one fell swoop, and the Kyoto area will be even more chaotic."

After listening to it, Zhang Pingtai thought to himself: Mrs. Kuma is really terrible. Before he knew it, he had already fooled so many powerful men.

When Oda Nobuo received the letter from Yi Tusheng, he was preparing to attack Akichi Koshan. He had a deep feud with Akichi Koshan. Even if Yi Tusheng didn't give him any chance, he would not let Akichi Koshan go. However, with Yi Tusheng's help, things would be smoother.

"Very good. Our allies are already at the city. Akichihiro Hikari is about to fail. Although he killed Hidetachi Tokugawa, he absolutely cannot control the entire Japan. Our Oda family is destined to regain control of the world of Japan. Come, let us tell us that Yuzo Watanabe comes to see me." Nobuo Oda held the letter paper in his hand and said with a smirk.

Nearly half an hour later, a tall Japanese man with a beard entered Oda Nobuo's room and knelt on the ground and said, "Watanabe Yuzo meets General Oda. Will there be anything in the future for the Great General?!"

Nobuo Oda hurried over and helped Yuzo Watanabe up very politely and said, "General Watanabe, you are specialized in collecting intelligence. I want to ask you if there is any movement in Okamoto Daiya in the Shikoku region recently?"

After Watanabe Yuzo stood up, he looked a little surprised and said, "The General is really strange. Why did you ask Okamoto Daiya well? The general thought that the General should be concerned about the news about Akichi Koyama and Ashikaga family now. Otherwise, there would be Okamoto Daiya in the Dongzan area, so it would not be the turn of Okamoto Daiya."

Nobuo Oda smiled and said, "In the words of the Ming Dynasty, you are a woman's opinion. Let me tell you the truth. Don't look at the Ashikaga family and Okubo Tada, but their threat is far less than that of Okamoto Daiya, because both Ashikaga family and Okubo Tada are normal people, they will first care about their own safety and then fight for greater benefits, but Okamoto Daiya will not, because he is a lunatic!"

"I have heard about Okamoto Daiya and heard that he eats the heart of a three-year-old child every day, but I think this is too incredible and never takes it to my heart. But the general's meaning seems to be true. Otherwise, why would the general pay such attention to him?!"

Nobuo Oda said: "If you really don't believe this, you don't even believe it. How could you have so many children's hearts for him to eat? So this must be fabricated. But as the saying goes, no wind is coming. Okamoto Daihara is indeed a lunatic. I knew him before and knew that what he did was different from that of a normal person."

Yuzo Watanabe said: "At present, the Ashikaga family members were intercepted by the army you sent by General. We have only 50,000 or 60,000 troops left. If the General wants to deal with Okamoto Daiya, it seems that the troops are a little weak. Should the General consider not to use troops against Okamoto Daiya first?"

Nobuo Oda said: "I didn't want to use troops to Okamoto Daiya. What I want to deal with is that boy Akichi Mitsuyama. Maybe you have heard recently that Akichi Mitsuyama killed Tokugawa Hidetachi and gained more leadership of the shogunate. It's time for our Oda family and Akichi Mitsuyama to settle the matter."

"So that's the case, but as far as I know, Akichi Kwangyama has been fighting against the Ming army in the Shanyin area recently. If the general attacked him at this time, would it be a big help to the Ming army? After Tokugawa Hidetachi fell, the general and Toyotomi family were the most powerful. The Toyotomi family had always been holding troops and watching the fire across the river. The general could not fall into the trap of the Ming people."

Nobuo Oda said confidently: "Don't worry about the Ming army, this general has his own responsibilities. In short, I must deal with Akichi Komayama, and I don't want to use too much force. The main force is to stay in Edo, and I just need to use 20,000 troops to deal with Akichi Komayama."

"I'm afraid the generals are not enough to deal with Akichi Mitsuyama. According to my information, Akichi Mitsuyama's current troops are about 70,000 to 80,000 after he incorporated the Tokugawa Shogunate. Even if we do our best, we may not be able to do the work, let alone just 20,000 people and horses?!" Yuzo Watanabe was very surprised and thought to himself, was General Oda talking so mischievously today?

Nobuo Oda was unwilling to tell his subordinates the specific situation so early, so he said, "You don't have to worry about this. This general has already thought of a countermeasure. You can gather troops."...
