Chapter 79: The Envoy of Minghai City

The siege lasted for another two days.?

Oda Nobunaga's troops could neither go out of the city to collect grain, nor did they succeed. He wanted to attack the whole city and launch a final decisive battle, but he probably could not defeat the soldiers of the Imakawa family.

He should understand that if he continues like this, he will have no way to die.

Gao Xianda also gathered his troops in time and did not attack Minghai City anymore. Instead, he sent loud soldiers to clamor outside and shot many letters of surrender along the wall into the city.

The price of city breaking and surrender is naturally different.

Gao Xianda's conditions are very simple: the retainer surrenders, and Oda Nobunaga's head.

As the culprit of the sneak attack on Imakawa Yoshimoto, who led to the death of Imakawa Yoshimoto in battle, since Gao Xianda attacked the Oda family under the banner of revenge, Oda Nobunaga must not let him go.

As for the others, let’s talk about it after surrendering.

Gao Xianda thought that his psychological warfare still played a certain role. Finally, a man climbed the rope from the wall of Minghai City.

"I am an envoy of the Oda family." said the man.

Gao Xianda had already explained it in advance, so the soldiers of the Imakawa family did not attack him, but instead invited him to Gao Xianda's account.

"Who are you?" Gao Xianda looked up and down at the person. The man was only about one meter and two meters tall, with a sharp-mouthed face and a monkey cheek. If he hadn't been wearing a suit, Gao Xianda would have thought he had become a monkey. Even now, he looked like a monkey wearing clothes.

"My name is Kinisho Tokiro," said the man, "I am a footlight team leader under Oda."

"Come on! Kill me!" Gao Xianda laughed, "Oda Nobunaga actually dared to send a foot light team leader to humiliate me!"

So two guards in armor and spears came in outside the tent immediately.

Although their height is not very tall, compared with this "monkey", they are even giants.

The two of them easily grabbed Kinoshita Tenkiro and prepared to drag it out.

"The two countries will fight, but the envoy will not be killed." Kinisho Tokiro was very calm at this time and said, "I was sent by the Oda family to make peace. Is this the Imakawa family's way of treating guests? If the lord kills me, I'm afraid I will regret it!"

When Gao Xianda saw that he was caught in the air by the enemy holding weapons, he had no panic on his face. He was indeed a character. Moreover, since the other party dared to run to his camp alone, he had already put life and death aside.

Gao Xianda knew his current situation. If the Sanhe soldiers did not work hard, they would be able to fight with the wind, but they would never be willing to attack the city.

Therefore, Gao Xianda still hopes to persuade the Oda family to surrender. If this "monkey" is killed this time, it will undoubtedly be much more difficult to persuade the surrender in the future.

So Gao Xianda said, "Forget it, let him come back. You two go out first."

So the two guards released Kishita Tokiro back and turned around and went out.

Kinoshita Tenkiro finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he seemed calm, he was not afraid of death.

But this is also a good thing. Gao Xianda is really afraid that the other side will send a second guy who is not afraid of death. Since the other party is not stupid, then just negotiate the conditions.

"So, do you agree with our conditions?" Gao Xianda asked, "I can't think of a more favorable condition. As long as you hand over Oda Nobunaga and others will submit, you can leave your past affairs without any blame. With the blessing of my Imakawa family, you can still maintain your original fief."

"No." Kinisho Tokiro said, "I am the representative of Nobunaga and speak for Nobunaga. Our Oda family's retainers work together. If the adults want to be the life of Nobunaga, our Oda family will fight."

Gao Xianda said: "Oda Nobunaga sent someone to sneak attack my father's formation and killed my father. I must avenge this revenge. I can take a step back, and Oda Nobunaga can cut off the stomach in the city. I can give him a samurai's decent attitude, and other conditions will not change."

Tenkiro Kinoshita looked at both sides and saw that there were no outsiders. He said mysteriously: "Sir, if it is something else, I won't blame you for taking revenge. But if you say that you were assassinating your father, I'm afraid you are the beneficiary of this matter? He inherited the family governor and unified the entire Ozaka area. It would be better than being a young man for a lifetime. In the end, Lord Yoshimoto gave you another younger brother and transferred the family governor to him, right?"

Gao Xianda said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

But Gao Xianda actually understood that this was the case. He had no real blood relationship with Imakawa Yoshimoto. So his relationship with Imakawa Yoshimoto was also very weak.

This is also why he knew that the war between Turksama could be born, but he did not always guard Imakawa Yoshimoto.

In his heart, he was still more inclined to be the head of the family himself. However, in order to win over the hearts of his retainers, these things cannot be resorted to.

"Sir, don't be too excited, there are no outsiders here." Kinisho Tokiro said, "I dare to come and make the conditions with you, of course because we have chips in our hands."

"What chips?" Gao Xianda narrowed his eyes and smelled a trace of conspiracy.

"Hahaha." Kinishon Tenkiro smiled, "Let me talk about our conditions first. I hope you can lift the siege of Naruto City and then return the Kiyosu Castle to us. As a condition, the Oda family is willing to surrender to the Imakawa family. The two young masters of Nobunaga, Qimiaomaru and Chashimaru, can go back to Junfu City to be hostages. We can do whatever the lords of Tomje and Sanhe do."

"What a joke!" Gao Xianda was furious, "Does the defeated general dare to put forward such conditions?"

Tenkiro Kinoshita was not angry and continued, "I dare to make such a condition, of course there is my reason. Don't you want to know?"

Gao Xianda said: "Say!"

Tenkiro Kinoshita smiled and said, "Don't you want to know the whereabouts of Lord Yoshimoto after the Battle of Turkara?"

Gao Xianda immediately felt a cool breeze blowing behind him.

Although he sent many spies, he had never had the whereabouts of Imakawa Yoshimoto.

Some people said he ran away, some people said he was dead, and the Oda family naturally claimed that they had killed Imakawa Yoshimoto. But no one had accurate news.

Kinoshita Tenkiro said this, could it be...

"Do you mean that my father's body is in your hands?" Gao Xianda calmed down for a moment, or decided to give in, and said, "You will return my father's body well. I can accept your surrender and let you keep Minghai City."
