If Date Masamune's plan can be successfully achieved, and Bemiko poisons Lu Xun, Qi Jiguang, and Gongsun Qi to death with a wine feast, then the Japanese army will usher in a major turnaround.
The three main generals died at the same time, and the 150,000 Han troops on the island of Japan were leaderless, and they were bound to fall into a state of chaos.
It would take at least a month or more to get the news from the mainland and send a general to take up the post, and Oda Nobunaga and his soldiers could seize the opportunity to reverse the unfavorable situation, launch a counteroffensive against the Han army, and regain the fallen lands.
"This plan is feasible," Oda Nobunaga stretched out his hand and pulled off a beard, affirming Date Masamune's plan, "but who should be sent to secretly contact Himiko is the key, and if you can't convince Himiko, then this plan is just a matter of paper." ” As soon as Oda Nobunaga's words fell, Akechi Mitsuhide stepped forward and said: "Lord Sekihaku, I used to be a lieutenant under Himiko in the past, and I had a relationship with this queen, so it is better for me to go to Kofu to meet Himiko secretly and persuade her to abandon her past suspicions and fight against Han together." ” Date Masamune actually wanted to contact Himiko in person, but seeing that Akechi Mitsuhide was pious and had an old acquaintance with Himiko, he had to keep silent.
Oda Nobunaga bowed his head and said, "Okay, since Mitsuhide and Himiko are old acquaintances, then this errand will fall on you, and I hope you don't let me down." ” "Hi" Akechi Mitsuhide lowered his hand in agreement, but almost smiled in his heart.
At present, the three-way Han army is approaching Edo step by step from the west, north, and south, forming a situation of encirclement, while Himiko is stationed in the area of Kofu County with more than 20,000 old troops to cooperate with the Han army.
Akechi Mitsuhide received Oda Nobunaga's orders, disguised himself as a hunter, left Edo Castle in the evening, and galloped more than 200 miles all the way, arriving at the Himiko camp in the early hours of the morning, twenty miles north of Kofu Castle.
"Someone who came here to be interrogated" The patrolling Lima Taijun immediately raised their swords and guns to surround them when they found out about Wise Mitsuhide.
Wise Mitsuhide turned over and dismounted, and said with a smile: "The villain is a hunter of Edo Castle, and he recently obtained secret information, and he came to tell the queen in exchange for a reward. ” The centurion who took the lead glanced at Akechi Mitsuhide up and down, and shouted, "If you have secret information to report to me, you will definitely not be missing your reward." ” Wise Mitsuhide smiled and stuffed a piece of broken gold into the sleeve of the centurion's coat: "This matter is a long story, and it is related to the life and death of Oda Nobunaga, as well as the revival of the kingdom of Rimatai, I can't tell for a while, and you can't remember clearly, I have to meet the queen in person." ” The centurion's face suddenly became kind: "Well, in that case, you can wait a moment and let me report it."
But whether the Queen agrees to receive you or not is not for me to decide. ” "As long as your lord relays what I just said, I am sure that the queen will see me."
Wise Mitsuhide put his hands in his sleeves and said confidently.
"Wait," the centurion commanded, weighed the broken gold in his hand, and turned into the camp.
Shaped like a yurt, Himiko's tent is located in the center of the camp in the center of the camp in Yamatai, and is guarded by 16 dignified female soldiers day and night to protect Himiko's safety.
Although it was early in the morning, the sky was hazy, and the stars were dim, Himiko, who was plagued by insomnia, had already woken up, and was standing in front of the bed with a cloak and glaring at his son, which was also Liu Wei's blood.
In order to ask for help from the Eastern Han Dynasty, Himiko could only sacrifice his hue in exchange for Liu Bian's rescuers, and he had Liu Bian's flesh and blood with Liujia.
Before leaving Jiaozhou, he was warned by Liu Wei that if he dared to abort this child without authorization, then the fate of the Kingdom of Limatai would disappear from this world like Oda Nobunaga.
On the contrary, if Himiko can give birth to this child, the Han army will save the kingdom of Rimatai and let her continue to be the nominal queen, which can be regarded as living up to the joy of the bed.
After a hundred years of Himiko, passing the throne to this child, she can also enjoy the queen's funeral and be worshipped for generations.
At that time, Himiko had no choice but to agree, thinking in his heart that he would defeat Oda Nobunaga first and then see the opportunity to act.
With his prestige in the eyes of the people of the island country, he might be able to make a comeback and expel the Han army from the island country, so Himiko gave birth to this boy in October and named it "Meiji Mujin".
At the beginning, Himiko didn't hate this son very much, but as the Han army became more and more powerful in controlling the island of Japan, and sent Gao Xi and Pan Mei with a large number of officials and craftsmen to govern the place, set up counties and counties throughout Japan, and popularized the culture of the Han Dynasty, making Himiko's influence weaker and weaker.
Only then did Himiko suddenly realize that his dream of recovering the country through the Han army was just a pillow of yellow sorghum, and he couldn't even be a puppet.
He couldn't ask the Han people for help, but instead made a wedding dress for Liu Bian, which accelerated the pace of Liu Bian's unification of the East.
After seeing the reality, Himiko became more and more furious, and for no reason he would take out his anger on his two-year-old son, and sometimes even beat him with his belt, leaving the innocent child in nightmares all day long, covered in bruises.
"You son of a, you came to this world to suffer for Liu Bian" Himiko stood in front of the bed with his hair scattered, looking at the sleeping child who stretched out his hands to make a pinching gesture, and roared in a low voice, "Since Liu Bian is playing with me, I will torture his son" The two-year-old Meiji Muhito was asleep, unaware of his mother's madness, sobbing a few times in his sleep, looking pitiful.
At this moment, the centurion's voice sounded outside the tent: "Queen Kaiyu, there is a hunter from outside the big camp, claiming to be from Edo, and there is secret information about the life and death of Oda Nobunaga and the revival of the kingdom of Yamatai. ” Hearing this, Himiko perked up and stopped stretching out his poisonous palm to his son: "Oh, bring it to the handsome tent to see me immediately." ” The centurion took the order and left, and Himiko calmed his excitement a little, and summoned the female soldiers into the tent to serve him to freshen up.
A moment later, the centurion, after a search of Akechi Mitsuhide, took him to Himiko's tent: "Queen Kaiyu, Orion here." ” "Meet the Queen" Akechi Mitsuhide made a salute after entering the handsome tent.
Himiko, who appeared in front of Akechi Mitsuhide, had a somewhat haggard face and a little pale skin, and it could be seen that this was the result of the accumulated anxiety over time, and it was similar to the previous demeanor.
"You said you had secret information to report to me," Himi said in a strong spirit, kneeling behind the handsome case, his face still with a sense of majesty.
"Not bad" Wise Guangxiu stood straight, and agreed without humility or arrogance.
"Tell me about it, and if it's useful, I'll reward it, Queen."
Himi raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.
Wise Mitsuhide said solemnly: "This matter is very important, and the queen must hold back to prevent the news from leaking." ” Himiko knew a little about martial arts, and he was not too afraid of Akechi Mitsuhide, who was single-handedly searched, and waved his hand to order most of the people to retreat, leaving only two skilled henchwomen soldiers, "You can say it now" Akechi Mitsuhide did not beat around the bush, and immediately made his identity clear, telling Himiko that he was entrusted by Oda Nobunaga to negotiate with her about the joint fight against the Han, and if the plan can be achieved, the Han people will be expelled from the Japanese island and the world will be divided equally in the future.
Hearing the intention of Akechi Mitsuhide, Himiko was unexpected, and his cheeks twitched slightly: "My Rhimadai almost lost his country, all thanks to Oda Nobunaga, but now I have come to let me believe in him."
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled and spread his arms: "But Queen, do you have any other choices, it's easier for you to defeat Nobunaga than to defeat the Han army?"
Himiko's face changed slightly: "You call Nobunaga" The corners of Wise Guangxiu's mouth curled slightly, revealing a sinister smile: "My Majesty, you heard me right.
I've long seen that Nobunaga is not pleasing to the eye, if you can poison the Han generals and join forces with Nobunaga to expel the Han army from the island country, I will definitely find an opportunity to poison Oda Nobunaga like you."
Himiko was taken aback, and the tea in his hand spilled: "What's the benefit of you doing this?"
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled indifferently: "Take Nobunaga and replace him, and share Japan equally with the queen."
Of course, if the queen doesn't mind, we can also become a family, and the shadow of you back then lingers in my heart. ” The surprise on Himiko's face was gradually replaced by a smile: "You have guts, I like it, Queen."
I think I can give it a try, but I have no choice but to use a dead horse as a live horse doctor. ” Akechi Mitsuhide patted his chest and swore: "As long as the queen can manage to poison Lu Xun, Qi Jiguang and others, Nobunaga's side will wrap up on me."
I'm the number one general besides Date Masamune, and I have 20,000 soldiers under my command, so I won't let you down. ” Himiko immediately drafted a letter with his own hands and asked Akechi Mitsuhide to bring it to Oda Nobunaga, expressing his willingness to abandon his previous suspicions and fight against Han with Oda Nobunaga.
Before leaving, Akechi Mitsuhide gave a flying kiss to Himiko: "My Royal Highness, you have to work hard, don't let me down" After leaving the camp of Ryamadai with Himiko's letters, Akechi Mitsuhide did not rush back to Edo, but rode his horse in the direction of Okaya, which was sixty miles away, where the camp of Shiraki was.
Wise Mitsuhide, dressed as a hunter, sneered secretly while galloping on his horse: "What is it to step on two boats, the more you can step on to be invincible, no matter who loses or wins, I have to find the best way to survive for myself." t1706231537:
