Chapter 266: The Situation Reverses
Five days later, Hosokawa Nobumoto basically wiped out the remnants of the Takeda army in his territory, and Takeda Katsuyori and the surviving retainers also fled back to Shinano, but the contradictions between them intensified.
First of all, Takeda Nobuyoshi announced that before the Battle of Takeda, Takeda Shingen had died of an infection caused by a gunshot wound. Although this is a kind of protection to save Takeda Shingen's face and avoid the loss of the late season. But again, for Takeda Shin, who was at the helm of the army for the first time, his prestige suffered a serious blow.
Although Hosokawa Nobugen had long guessed that Takeda Shingen was dead, he couldn't help but sigh when he heard that the cause of death was a gunshot wound infection. I think that when I was assassinated in Kaimachi, I was also shot in the body and caused an infection and fever, but I survived, and Takeda Shingen obviously failed to survive because of age and physical decline.
Secondly, because Takeda Shingen died too suddenly, he had been in a fever of gibberish before his death, not only did he not make it clear that Takeda Katsuyori was the next governor, but also said that Takeomaru would succeed him as the governor at the age of sixteen.
For this reason, in the large and wide room of Kofu Castle, Takeda Katsuyori and a cadre of old ministers insisted on their own words, and they quarreled fiercely.
"I'm my father's favorite heir! Since my father summoned me from the Suwa family back to the Honjo, he wanted to pass on the position of governor of the family to me! Otherwise, why don't you recall others! And, ever since I came back, I've been involved in everything in the house, and that's not what is it? Well? This is enough to explain the heart of my father! Moreover, before his death, his old man had a high fever and abnormal speech, which cannot be used as a testament! Takeda Katsuyori sat on the main seat, slapping a few cases and shouting.
Although the lord's dying words were indeed a bit messy. However, when the lord was alive, he praised Takeomaru's cleverness many times, and said that he would take on the great cause of the Takeda family in the future, which is obvious to all, and the name of the Yuan service has long been established, and it is called Takeda Shinkatsu. "Takasaka Masanobu was the first to oppose Katsuyori, he was beautiful, and it is said that he had a dragon yang fetish with Takeda Shingen.
When he heard of Shin Xuan's sudden death, he once sadly wanted to be martyred, thanks to the successful dissuasion of a Shin Dragon.
"So what? Takeomaru is my son, and it is not impossible for him to inherit the position of head of the Takeda family from me in the future. "Katsuyori Takeda looks like he should be.
"But you, young master, have not been given the Takeda family's "letter" so far. A letter dragon sneered, he is Takeda Shingen's half-brother, even a branch like him who inherited a family, has the word "letter", so he can't look down on it at all, this Takeda Katsuyori who doesn't have a connected word.
"What do you mean!" Takeda Katsuyori was like a cat with its tail stepped on, and he deeply felt that this group of old ministers looked down on him at all. The implication is that he was originally an heir who was sent over in order to annex the Suwa family, and how could an heir of someone else's family inherit the Takeda family again? Calling you back is just passing down the position of governor.
"Alright, don't make any noise! When the lord dies, you will start fighting in the nest, what kind of system will you become! "Takeda Shinren is now the elder of the pen family, and he is also the half-brother of Takeda Shingen, and he is currently the highest status of the Takeda family.
"Takeda-sama, what do you say we should do now?" Akiyama Nobutomo asked, looking at the several empty places around him, and he couldn't help but feel a little melancholy in his heart.
"Now what my Takeda family wants is stability, whether the position of the head of the family is Katsuri Young Master or Takeomaru, after all, they are all members of my Takeda family. Now that Takeo Pill is still young, it is indeed impossible to deal with government affairs, and before its Yuan Serving, it is temporarily passed down by the young master of Shenglai. "Takeda Nobuyoru has Takeda Katsuyori as his generation, which is also an ingenious inheritance method.
"That's... Okay..."Takeda Katsuyori sighed wistfully, his master and craftsman Yuan Changyin was gone, and the important ministers present were all old ministers of the previous generation. He had just experienced a big defeat, and he couldn't convince the public at all, so he could only pinch his nose and admit it.
Because of this, although Takeda Katsuyori could not directly inherit the family governor, he still had the status of the same family governor. Similarly, the retainers of the Takeda family are nominally serving the theoretical heir of the family, Takeomaru, so naturally they will not do more idle things, such as shouting for Katsuyori to get out.
At the same time, Hosokawa Nobumoto once again reorganized his army and prepared to go into battle. The news of the great victory over the Takeda family in the First World War spread throughout the country like a letter with wings.
Oda Nobunaga was overjoyed when he learned about it, and ordered Hosokawa Nobumoto, the commander-in-chief, to lead the Ise and Owari fronts, and exterminate Nagashima in the vicinity. And as the battle on the Eastern Front was opened, the battles in other places also changed.
First of all, Oda Nobunaga's northern front battle, the Asakura and Asai coalition forces suddenly heard that Takeda Shingen was defeated, and the Takeda army suffered a catastrophe, and suddenly morale plummeted, and people's hearts were in a trance.
Soon, Kinoshita Hideyoshi found a breakthrough and successfully persuaded the lord of Asai retainer Yamamoto Yamajo Castle to surrender. Subsequently, the lord of Skylark Mountain Castle, Asami Keikin, also surrendered to the Oda family.
Oda Nobunaga took the opportunity to send troops to attack the Asai family's Tsukise Castle, and that night, Tsukise Castle opened the castle and subdued, tightly compressing the entire Asakura and Asai coalition forces in the area of Kotani Castle.
The second was Hosokawa Fujitaka's battle situation on the Western Front, although the Hosokawa Iron Artillery Team was transferred, but Omi's Akechi Mitsuhide led the army to arrive, and the two sides fought equally. When the news of the defeat of the Takeda family came, Ashikaga Yoshiaki immediately panicked, this is the force he relies on the most.
Soon, the wealthy clan of Tanba Province and Naito Ruan of Yagi Castle was rebelled by Matsunaga Hide, and under the defection, the three thousand Tanba people were killed by Hosokawa Fujitaka and others, and Akai Naomasa and Utsu Yorishige escaped with their lives and fled back to Tanba Country.
In fact, this Naito Ruan's father, Naito Munekatsu, formerly known as Matsunaga Nagayori, is the younger brother of Matsunaga Hide. When Miyoshi Chokei was dominant in Kinai, he became the lord of Yagi Castle because of his meritorious service in attacking Tanba Province.
Later, in order to strengthen people's hearts, Matsunaga Nagayori married the daughter of Tamba's guardian Naito Kunisada, and inherited the name of the Naito clan, changing his name to Naito Munekatsu. Naito Ruan is the son of the daughter of Naganaga Nagayori and Naito Kunisada, and he is also the nephew of Matsunaga Hide.
In the seventh year of Eiroku, Naito Ruan converted to Christianity under the introduction of Louis Floys. The following year, his father, Nagayori, was killed in a battle with Akai Naomasa, and Naito Ruan succeeded him as the guardian of Tanba. At this time, the power of the Miyoshi clan declined sharply, and the power of the Akai clan and the Hatano clan, who were members of the Tanba country, rose and continued to encroach on the territory of the Naito clan, so he and Akai Naomasa still had a grudge against his father.
This time, he supported the shogunate, and wanted to take the opportunity to climb the dragon and the phoenix in order to consolidate his territory. Unexpectedly, the shogunate army lost one after another, and Hosokawa Nobumoto defeated the Takeda family again, and immediately secretly contacted his Okamatsu Nagahide and betrayed Ashikaga Yoshiaki.
Soon, General Yoshiaki, who had lost foreign aid, was besieged by tens of thousands of troops in this unbarrier and extremely luxurious Nijo Castle. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
