Harunobu Takeda considers himself to be a hero.

With the barrenness of Kai, it is extremely difficult for him to develop the Takeda family to the point where he is now.

Kai is very poor, and compared with forces such as Hojo and Imagawa, he is congenitally at a disadvantage, even if he is not comparable to the Echigo Nagao family. Although the latter often has a lot of trouble with the wealthy families in the collar, he can't stand the other party having a good father-in-law.

It is precisely because of the difficulty of fighting the country that Takeda Harunobu has a lot of prejudices against his heir Takeda Yoshinobu, and it can even be said that he is very dissatisfied.

It's not that Yoshinobu Takeda's ability is mediocre, in fact, Yoshinobu Takeda's ability is still very strong.

And he is also deeply supported by his retainers at home, so he can be said to be a qualified heir.

But the situation of the Takeda family does not need other forces.

The Takeda family's territory was in the backwoods of Kai and Shinano, and the daimyo around them were all powerful forces. With the current strength of the Takeda family, it is difficult to protect themselves.

So the Takeda family must fight out!

Since the time of the ancestor Takeda Shintora, the Takeda family has always wanted to go south to Suruga and Sagami, and break out of the ravine of Kai.

But neither the Imagawa family nor the Hojo family are soft persimmons, and they have not been able to produce a result after decades of fighting.

Therefore, after Takeda Harunobu succeeded to the throne, he changed the direction of his operations and turned to fight north.

First take Shinano, then go north to Echigo, and then seize the three places of Echishu (Echizen, Echichu, and Echigo), so that the Takeda family can truly achieve its rise.

However, not to mention Echigo, even the Kita-Shinano Takeda family is not completely occupied now.

A large part of Kita-Shinano's territory is now in the hands of the Murakami family and other people. These people rely on the Nagao family as their backing, and there is a Tsugawa family standing behind the Nagao family, which is really difficult to do.

Originally, Takeda Harunobu couldn't see any hope, but who knew that at this time, Imagawa Yoshimoto suddenly went to Luo, and died in Omi.

Now Harunobu Takeda sees hope again!

As soon as Yoshimoto Imagawa died, the new head of the Imagawa clan was an inexperienced young leader. Suruga and Enoe are also in chaos, and the Imagawa family is now at its weakest.

If the Takeda family can take the opportunity to go south to win the two kingdoms of Suruga and Enoe, then the Takeda family will have the capital to win the world!

This has always been Harunobu Takeda's long-cherished wish.

However, when he proposed this policy, his son, who should have supported him, was the first to stand up against him.

And Takeda Yoshinobu actually prefaced himself with what morality!

What is morality?

Fist poop is morality!

At this moment, Harunobu Takeda has been completely disappointed in his son.

I think that for the sake of the Takeda family, I could even exile my father. Even if it is his own son, as long as he dares to go against his will and obstruct Takeda Harunobu's plan to develop and strengthen the Takeda family, Takeda Harunobu will definitely not be merciful.

"My lord, there is a messenger from Suruga who has sent a letter!"

Just as Harushi Takeda was feeling angry in confidence, a close man suddenly walked in with a letter.

"Suruga has a letter?"

"Get it!"

He took the letter from his hand and opened it, and after reading the contents of the letter, Takeda Harunobu's face suddenly became a little weird.

"My lord, what does the Imagawa family's letter say?" Masanobu Takasaka couldn't help but ask.

Takeda Harunobu put the letter aside, and then replied, "This is Shou Guini's handwritten letter, in which she said that she hopes that the family can send troops to support the Imagawa family on the basis of the friendship between the two families for many years, and jointly resist the attack of the Matsudaira family and the Oda family!" ”

"Shouguini?"

"This old lady is not easy to deal with, it is said that this is a more terrifying existence than Daisuke Imagawa Jibe!" Sitting beside Masanobu Takasaka, the horse farm nobubo pinched his chin and said with a solemn face.

The racecourse letter was originally born in the Shi family, and his father was the Shi Xinbao.

In the fifteenth year of Astronomy, because of the loss of the heir of the Baba clan, he was allowed to inherit the family name of the Baba clan.

At this time, the horse farm letter was not the fierce general who was called "Ghost Mino" in history, because his common name was still the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Historically, it was not until 1562 that the Baba Nobubo was allowed to use the generic name "Mino Mamoru", and at that time the Baba Nobubo was renamed Baba Mino Nobuharu, which is already known as Oni Mino.

"The Ministry of Civil Affairs Shaofu can also be regarded as a fierce general in the family, but I didn't expect to be scared by a woman!"

As soon as the Baba Nobubo finished speaking, a young samurai in his twenties couldn't help but quip.

"Genshiro, don't be rude!" Seeing that his nephew was so rude, Iitomi Huchang, who was sitting next to Takeda Shingen, immediately scolded.

Fan Fu Changjing hurriedly closed his mouth obediently.

Iitomi Masakei was later Yama Prefecture Masakai, but it's a pity that Naito Masatoyo was abducted by Tsugawa Soji, otherwise the four ministers of Takeda would have gathered together today.

Harunobu Takeda swept his gaze around the retainers before falling on one of them, "What does Samasuke have to say?" ”

Seeing that Takeda Harunobu called him, Takeda Nobuyoshi, who didn't know how to speak, had no choice but to reply, "My lord, the current situation no longer allows the family to make a choice!" ”

"If the Imagawa family dies, then the family will not be far away!"

"Imagine that the Oda family and the Matsudaira family are now on the side of the Tsugawa family, and if the Imagawa family is destroyed by them, then the two kingdoms of Suruga and Enoe will become the sphere of influence of the Tsugawa family."

"And after capturing Suruga, where will the Tsugawa family attack next?" Speaking of this, Takeda Shinhiro looked at the other retainers in the hall with a solemn expression.

Hearing Takeda Nobuyoshi's words, the rest of the retainers fell silent for a while.

Takeda Nobuyoshi had to continue: "Looking at the situation today, if the world is divided into ten parts, then the Tsugawa family will have three! ”

"After defeating Miyoshi's dominance of Jinai, the prestige of the Tsugawa family is the best in the world!"

"With the ambition of the Tsugawa family to be the master, the Tsugawa family's strength will not stop."

"The place west of Kyoto, the Tsugawa family can't scruple for the time being, but the place east of Kyoto is definitely the first target of the Tsugawa family!"

"Hokuriku, from Wakasa in the west to Echigo in the east, is either an ally of the Tsugawa family or his in-laws."

"Tokaido, Owari Oda, Mikawa Matsudaira and the Kanto people, all of them are the heads of the Tsugawa family!"

"And the rest of the Higashiyama Road, except for the Mino-Saito clan and the Hida Miki clan, only the main family is left!"

"Since the Imagawa family is the target of the Tsugawa family at this moment, after the Imagawa family is destroyed, who will be next?"

"Naturally, it's our family!"

"So instead of sitting still, it's better to fight!" Takeda Nobu was quite excited at this time, as a member of the Takeda family and the younger brother of Takeda Harunobu, he was always thinking about the future of the Takeda family.

"Everyone, time is running out!"

"This family takes Suruga, although there is a suspicion of injustice, but it is better than being robbed by the Tsugawa family!"

After listening to Takeda Nobuyoshi's words, the Takeda retainers present also seemed to have some understanding.

As Takeda Nobuyoshi said, if the Takeda family doesn't take Suruga, will it be left to the Tsugawa family?
