Chapter 124: Born Rebel

After Oda Nobunaga forcibly took Anshi Zhenyuan Temple, the army was exhausted, supplies of gunpowder and arrows were severely depleted, and it was impossible to keep fighting. All he could do was reluctantly set the place on fire, then burn down the castle town of Qingzhou City, and temporarily order a retreat.

Having failed to achieve his goal of eliminating the main Oda family in Qingzhou, Oda Nobunaga was in a foul mood. When he returned to Nagano Castle, there was a mass scolding, and Harano still didn't manage to escape; he was severely cursed again and ordered to return to Wanjin immediately, to focus entirely on raising gunpowder production—the job had to be finished ahead of schedule, or else it would be far worse than just being yelled at.
