"The town government is wrong! My lord will not let you suffer. After all, you were my lord's brother-in-law. Komai Takahakusai said with a smile.

"Oh? Don't let me suffer? Could it be that the big meal doctor is going to use what to exchange for his family's sitting. Asadachi was eager to hear about Komai Takahakusai's "Takami" from Takeda Shingen.

"The Ise family of Odawara Castle is a murderer of another country. Since ancient times, it has been the enemy of our Eastern Samurai. The Takeda family was repeatedly attacked by the Ise family during the Shintora period. Therefore, if you attack the Odawara Ise family, the Takeda family will sit idly by. And the old man also brought two hundred taels of gold from Koshu this time, as long as you agree, then the gold will be used as a deposit. How is it? With that, Komai handed a small wooden box full of gold to Nagano Yoshimori.

"Two hundred taels of Jiazhou gold, the handwriting of the big meal doctor is not small, and it is really difficult to refuse. However, the Takeda clan still needs to annihilate the Saiko army entrenched on the Izu Islands. "Chao Ding will not be tempted by the sight of these two hundred taels of glittering gold. Even if he is currently short of military funds, he can't easily agree to be friendly with the Takeda family, after all, being friendly with the Takeda family is really seeking skin with the tiger.

"Since this is the case, then the old man will return to Kofu first to report to my lord. Then the two families signed an oath and concluded an alliance. Komai Takahakusai was relieved a lot when he saw that Asadaki had accepted the gold.

"Well, that's a lot of work." Chao Ding nodded.

Shortly after Komai Takahakusai left Kawagoe Castle, the court immediately summoned Namba Tian Kenji, Ota Shimasa, Namba Hiroyoshi, Miyagi Masayo, and Ogasawara Nagasagawara Nagasaki to enter Kawagoe Castle to discuss matters.

"See the lord! I don't know if there is a major incident happening when the lord urgently summons his ministers? Ota Shimasa, as the head of the pen, stepped forward and asked.

"Just before summoning you, Komai Takahakusai, a major retainer of the Takeda family, came to Kawagoe Castle once, and Dr. Takeda Daizen wanted to form an alliance with the family." Chao Ding said it straight to the point.

"What?! Naito was only out of the main family not long ago, and the Takeda family suffered heavy losses from Nishi-Ueno, and the country-kuni lords of Nishi-Umino were almost wiped out. In this case, how could the Takeda family really ally with the main family? Miyagi Masayi shook his head and said.

"Definitely. Dr. Takeda Daizen has never kept his covenants and kept his promises. Although the common word of the family is 'faith', it has never done anything that fits this word. "Ogasawara didn't think the Takeda family could be trusted.

"The lord, the Oda family of Nishi-Habituchi and the Satake family of Oku-Constantu sent their retainers to the Echigo Prefecture a few days ago, and it is very likely that they want the Governing Hall to recognize the Ashikaga Fuji clan as the Kanto Prince." Kenji Namba is not interested in forming an alliance with Takeda, but has been keeping an eye on Tsuneriku.

"Once the main family and the Takeda family form an alliance, then the Uesugi family will be divided into the Yamauchi and Ogiya families again." Ota said thoughtfully.

"Even if it is divided into two families, then I am afraid that the echigo-sent riders such as Yamamotoji, Shinbata, and Kano will not be happy. If they raise troops in Jucheng to cage the city, the family really can't do anything to them for a while. "There are Echigo later riders such as Yamamoto Temple and Kano Hideharu around Nambada Hiroshi.

"There is also Ayukawa Shinano Mamoru (Ayukawa Kiyocho) in Kunimine Castle, and if he raises the flag with Honjo Musashuke, then the entire Ueno One Country will no longer be peaceful." Guangze said helplessly. After all, Ayukawa Kiyonaga is a branch of the Honjo clan, and once he unites with Honjo Shiranaga, then even Nagano Yoshimasa and other generals may not be able to defeat him quickly.

"Don't even think about how to go to war, one by one. All think about whether it is necessary to form an alliance with the Takeda family. Each one of you has a voice. Chao Ding was a little impatient to listen.

"The minister disagrees." As soon as Asada's voice fell, Ogasawara was the first to express his position.

When Ogasawara was the first to stand up and make a statement, the retainers did not rush to express their stance as he did, but fell into deep thought.

When Ogasawara was the first to stand up and make a statement, the retainers did not rush to express their stance as he did, but fell into deep thought.

"The time is also, the momentum is also. Ogasawara, calm down first. The alliance between the family and the Takeda family is also helpless, and what the family needs now is time. Tadanobu Hirosawa said, pulling Ogasawara's sleeve.

"Alas!" Ogasawara let out a long sigh and sat down.

"Let's see the sincerity of the Takeda family first. At the moment, the most important thing is to first pick up land in the Kamakura Prefecture and other counties of the country that have been recaptured, and then transfer the powerful retainers to the past. "Chaoding is most concerned about the loss of land in his ancestors, and as for the Takeda family, alliance and non-alliance are not very meaningful.

"Who does the lord plan to transfer to the Xiangfu Kingdom?" Kenji Namba is very concerned about this matter.

"Okabe or Asahina. Imagawaden must sit firmly in Kamakura and immediately send someone to Kyoto to ask the Kyoto Gongban to appoint Imagawaden as the Kanto Gongbo. Let the Soma family, the Tamura family, the Iwaki family, the Mogami family, the Tendo family, the Koyama family, the Sazawa family and other daimyo belonging to our family also go to the shogunate. As long as the Kanto Princes are here in their own family, then the Ashikaga Fuji clan will not be afraid. "Asada's plan is to stabilize Kanto first.

"Why don't you transfer to the Omori brothers?" As soon as Asada's words fell, Nambada Hiroyoshi stood up. After all, the Omori family has lived in Sagami Province for several generations, but this time the court unexpectedly did not transfer the Omori brothers to Sagami Province.

"The situation in Ueno is still unstable at the moment. After Kensei went to Echigo, Oishiden sent someone to inform me that Nagano Hall was a little overwhelmed by the remaining nationalist lords in Nishi-Ueno. They all planned to recognize the Echigo Ruler as the Lord. Asahi first motioned for Nambada Hiroyoshi to sit down, and then said slowly.

"In the next few days, I will be ready to seal and transfer some retainers, and you all have a preparation in your hearts." The court plans to transfer a group of powerful retainers to key places.

On the 15th day of the fifth month of the second year of Eiroku, while the court was preparing to transfer the retainer and waiting for the arrival of Komai Takahakusai, Kato Duanzo brought bad news.

"My lord, the Takeda family's desire to form an alliance with this family is false, and the rumors are true!" Kato Duanzang walked quickly into the study where Chaoding was, and he didn't care about any etiquette.

"What do you say?! What the hell is going on? After listening to this, Chao Ding immediately put down the brush in his hand.

"After Komai Takahakusai returned to Kofu, rumors appeared in various parts of Koshin and the two countries about the alliance between the Honke family and the Takeda family, and there were also rumors that the two families had entered the territory of the Echigo Gua Prefecture after forming an alliance!" It's rare for Kato to show such a hurry.

"It seems that Dr. Takeda Daizen is planning to frame the family with a trick. In this way, it should not be a big problem for Okushinano's Saito Shimono and others to deal with the invasion of the Takeda family, and once the palace sends troops to the south to attack the family, then the destruction of the family will come. "Chaoding is really hard to ride a tiger now, and I don't know what to do to remedy it.

"My lord, the Numata Hall has already begun to prepare for war. Echigo Ueda had already gathered 3,000 troops, and it seemed that they were preparing to move south into Ueno. "Kanzo Kato told another piece of bad news.

"What about the Guofeng City? Is there any change in Ayukawa Shinano? Asadaki immediately thought that Nishi-Ueno still had a nail of humility.

"At present, there are signs of strong walls and clear fields around Guofeng City, do you need your subordinates to wipe them out immediately?" Kato Duanzo wanted to relieve the pressure on the Asada.

"No need, let Honjo Musashisuke go talk to him." Asadachi thought that Ayukawa Kiyonaga was once a retainer of the Honjo family, so he wanted Honjo to try to see if he could make it his own.

"The lord is not only Ayukawa Shinano who has abnormal behavior, but Edo Tajima Mamori also has signs of falling to the Satake family." Kanzo Kato handed a letter to Asada.

"Edo Tajima Mamoru has a very close connection with the Ashikaga Fuji clan, and if this continues, the family's influence in Hitachichi will soon disappear. It is very likely that the Satake family, who had just ceased war with the main family, would unite the Hitachi generals with the enemy of the family in the name of the Ashikaga Fuji clan. "Chaoding's biggest heart problem now is that Changlu has not been calm.

"The Satake family, the Edo family, the Oda family and other powerful daimyo have recently been in frequent contact with the Ashikaga Fuji clan, and the Satake family even took out 2,000 stone Zhiyuki land to the Ashikaga Fuji clan as a royal food. If the family doesn't take some measures against the Hitachi side, the Makabe family will most likely fall to the enemy. Kato became worried.

"The country of Shimono has not yet been completely nationalized, and the counties of Haidao and Xiandao have only been pacified, and it is not suitable to send troops soon." Chao Ding scratched his head and thought of another person, "The Masaki clan of the two countries should still be alive, let Ichikawa Gentosai find a way to find their own family, as long as the troops from the two countries should not be a big problem." ”

"Understood, the minister immediately rushed to the general manager." Kato then left.
