Chapter 617: Imminent

If it were to be changed to another place, Shan County Changjing could indeed gain the favor of most of the wealthy clans, coupled with the fact that the Gaoshan clan's attitude towards the power of the Hao clan was so bad, those who had already seen the wind and steered the power of the Hao clan would definitely throw themselves into the arms of the Takeda family.

But he forgot, or didn't know the Tao at all, this Hida is too poor, how can there be as many powerful clans as other places, and in the land of Hida Country under the rule of the Takayama clan, in addition to the inner island family that is absolutely loyal to the Takayama family, how can there be other powerful clans, and the powerful power of the wealthy clan under the rule of the Jiangma family is already standing on the same battle as himself, so his play is in vain, and no one appreciates it at all.

Not to mention that the three wealthy families went to the Takeda family in Fangka City, but only that the Takayama clan led the pro-guard Seika Ashigaru to Gifu Castle to report the gold mine to Oda Nobunaga.

If you want to go from Matsukura Castle to Gifu Castle, there is only one way to go, and that is to reach Sakurato Castle first, and then from Sakurato Castle to Gungami Hachiman Castle and then go to Gifu Castle, although it is not close, but once you arrive at Gujo Hachiman Castle, the clan and his army can move forward on horseback, so it takes four days to reach Gifu Castle from Matsukura Castle, which is acceptable to the clan.

Because he tried his best to attack Hida, and he was afraid that the territory would be lost, so Gujo Hachiman Castle and the cities under the jurisdiction of this city are currently garrisoned by the Oda family samurai who have a good friendship with the clan, and now that he has taken all the land of Ji Xiaolu's family under his control, it is impossible for the enemy to directly attack Gujo Hachiman Castle, so there is no need for those Oda family samurai and their troops to stay here anymore.

They originally wanted to lead the army to leave after the clan took the land of Ji Xiaolu's family, after all, who didn't have a lot of things to deal with, but if they didn't even say hello to them, it would be too unreasonable, so they wanted to send someone to inform the clan, but before they could send someone out, the clan arrived, and they immediately resigned, since they were leaving. The clan sect is not easy to obstruct, but he can't let the other party help in vain, so he paid double the military expenses, and those samurai didn't plan to ask for this military expenses. Ke Zong wanted to give it directly, but when it came to the end, it was directly stuffed into their hands, and they couldn't help it, so they could only accept it helplessly.

After seeing off the Oda samurai, it was already dark, and the clan had to rest in the city for the night before setting off on the second day.

"Report to the lord. Takayama-sama asked for a meeting outside the castle tower and asked the lord to decide. ”

"Isn't he carrying out a Hida strategy, how can he have time to come to me?" When the attendant finished reporting, he only heard Nobunaga ask lightly.

"This ...... The subordinates don't know, and they ask the lord to decide. I heard the chief of the chamberlain, Shuichi Tanigawa, hurriedly replied.

Just now, he was joking with the clan sect, and he didn't even ask the purpose of Lord Tayama's coming, and after he finished speaking, he couldn't help but raise his eyes and secretly looked at the lord. When he saw that the lord was still very calm after listening, he didn't seem to blame himself. That's a sigh of relief.

Although Hasegawa Shuichi didn't ask, Nobunaga could probably guess the purpose of his sudden request to see him, and he knew that Hida was no longer in the world of Ji Xiaoji and Eima, and that Takeda and Uesugi had both sent troops to settle in, and it was still difficult to deal with one with the current strength of the Takayama clan, let alone two families, I am afraid that he came to apply for reinforcements from himself this time.

Thinking of this, Nobunaga couldn't help but smile slightly, only to hear him speak, "Go and call him in." ”

It didn't take long to see the clan come to the living room. He walked quickly to Nobunaga, saluted and said, "The subordinate Takayama clan clan is the lord. ”

"Well, why don't you go to attack Hida, why do you have time to run to me? Let's talk about the current state of the war. "Although Nobunaga said it very casually, if Uesugi Takeda sent troops into Hida again, then he would not sit idly by. …,

Although this is done on the bright side. He's helping Senbei seize the territory, but in fact, he doesn't always think about himself, if there are only Ji Xiaoji and Eima in Hida, he doesn't care at all, but once this country falls into the hands of Uesugi or Takeda, then it can threaten Gifu City, so he definitely has to take care of it.

But if the other party doesn't add more troops, then he will not only scold the clan sect, but also not a single soldier will come back, if he can't even solve such a trivial matter, why should he help him with such a waste.

"Back to the lord, the Uesugi army's main general, Murakami Yoshikiyo, knew that his subordinates were leading the army to avenge the Ji Xiaolu family, so he led the army to withdraw, and the Takeda army is currently only stationed in the Fangka City, because the current family and the Takeda family still have an alliance, so it is not good for the subordinates to do too much, so as not to cause a bad impact on the Oda family, and the subordinates have now obtained all the territories controlled by the Ji Xiaolu family, and are now preparing to recruit a large number of troops, and the lord guards the east gate, and asks the lord to decide."

After hearing this, Nobunaga stood up with a pout, and asked in surprise, "You have already beaten the Uesugi army back, didn't you come to ask for reinforcements this time?" ”

After hearing this, the clan couldn't help frowning, when did he say that he was going to ask for reinforcements? This Oda Nobunaga also looks down on people.

"Back to the lord, his subordinates have indeed repelled the Uesugi army, and this time I came to meet the lord not to ask the lord to send the army."

After hearing this, Nobunaga couldn't help but be interested, it had been less than a month since this Senbei led the army into Hida, and he was able to defeat the Uesugi army in such a short time, was the Uesugi army too weak, or was it too strong?

I heard Nobunaga ask with interest, "Tell me, how did you defeat the Uesugi army?" Then the clan sect told himself how to sneak attack the island city urn to catch turtles, and then how to use the ten-sided ambush strategy to wipe out all the forces of the Ji Xiaolu family, and let the Uesugi army suffer heavy losses, and then said how he and the Uesugi army to release their previous suspicions, this is the time of a meal.

In his opinion, the reason why the Uesugi army was defeated was not because its army was too weak, but because its leading generals were not good, and it could only be regarded as his bad luck if he encountered such a demon as Senbei.

When the clan finished speaking, Nobunaga was very satisfied with his performance, although the battle with the Uesugi family was too tricky, but just like the clan said just now, if you don't defeat the other party first, then I'm afraid you won't even have a chance to speak, and the clan clan didn't have the brains to wipe out all the Uesugi army in one go, which made Nobunaga feel even more gratified.

He still knows a little bit about the situation of the Uesugi family, if it loses the 4,000 troops, it will undoubtedly set up a strong enemy for the family, and now there are enough enemies in the family, and the surrounding forces are all ready to move, if the Uesugi family is added, then the family will basically be the enemy of the whole world, even if Nobunaga is confident, he can't help but feel stunned.

Now that the clan has not been wiped out, then with the current state of the Uesugi family, it will definitely continue to recuperate, which will make the family a lot easier.

When the clan finished speaking, he only heard Nobunaga speak: "Well, this thing is done well, as for the Takeda family......"

Nobunaga thought for a while, and then continued: "I received news that the Takeda family seems to be contacting the surrounding forces of the family and wants to attack the family, in this case, you should not take action against it at the moment, I believe that it will not be long before it will take the initiative to attack, you must be prepared during this time, whether the east side of the family is safe or not depends on you." ”

After hearing this, the clan couldn't help but be shocked, could it be that Takeda Shingen was going to Luo? It's no wonder that the Takeda Army in Hida has not moved recently, it turns out that there is a bigger plan, fortunately, there is a reminder from Nobunaga today, otherwise I am afraid that I will suffer a loss at that time. …,

And since Nobunaga is so sure, this can completely show that the Takeda family's large-scale attack will definitely not be delayed until half a year later, and it is difficult for him to prepare well in such a short time, and it seems that he will have to reformulate the next move after he returns.

It's no wonder that the clan didn't think about it, in history, the Takeda army was from the Tokaido to Luo, which has nothing to do with Hida at all, and the clan also believes that even if the Takeda family goes to Luo, then it will still be willing to go west from the Tokaido, after all, its most powerful Akabei, the role of Hida is limited, if Nobunaga arranges heavy troops there, it is impossible to pass at all, but although the clan can be sure, but Takeda Shingen is not very human, everything is still careful.

"It's the lord, after the subordinates return, they immediately refine the military posture, and the subordinates guarantee that even if the lord does not send a single soldier, the subordinates are confident that they will not let the Takeda army pass through Hida."

After hearing this, Nobunaga nodded and said, "Well, stand down." ”

"It's the lord." After saying that, the clan stood up, but just as he was about to withdraw from the city, it suddenly occurred to him that Lao Tzu had come all the way to Gifu Castle this time not to report the battle situation to Oda Nobunaga.

Thinking about this, I saw the clan sit down again, and before he could speak, he only heard Nobunaga ask, "Is there anything else to say?" ”

"Back to the lord, the main purpose of the subordinates to come this time is to report to the lord that there is a gold mine outside the cherry cave city, and his subordinates understand that Ji Xiaolu's family has been mining before, and after the subordinates occupied their land, they immediately ordered their subordinates to block the mine, and asked the lord to decide."

Although the clan is calm on the surface, but the heart is dripping blood, he seems to be rich, but that was before he obtained the land of Hida Half Country, and now not only has to pay 6,000 gold awards to Brutkal every year, but most importantly, after he settled in Hida, he needs money to build roads, recruit armed forces, and build money, anyway, there is no place that does not need money.

Especially the construction of roads, this is a bottomless pit, of course, it is not impossible not to repair, but if this is the case, once the enemy army comes to attack, then he can't go out quickly at all, and it is also very unfavorable to attack Xinjia in the future, and there is, if the road is not passable, then it is impossible for him to exchange the timber resources in Hida for money, so he can't help but feel distressed.
