Yuanjiang country hangs the city of Chuan. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This castle was originally the residence of the Asahina Tai Dynasty, but now after arriving in Enoe with the Imagawa clan, it has naturally become the residence of the Imagawa clan.

"My lord, according to the intelligence, the Takeda family has already broken through Sunpu Castle, and I believe that it will not take a few days to completely capture Suruga Province." Uden Nagasho said in a low voice, his mood was a little low, but this was inevitable, after all, he had been working hard to restore the strength of the Imagawa family all these years with the Imagawa clan. When he repelled the Takeda family before, he vaguely saw the hope of the Imagawa family re-rising, but now, reality has dealt him a heavy blow.

"Changzhao, there is no need for this, there is a saying in the Ming Kingdom, saying that victory and defeat are common things in soldiers. Just because we failed today doesn't mean we'll fail in the future. The most important thing is what we do now and what the future of our family should be. Seeing this, the Imagawa clan comforted.

Hearing this, before the Urina Changzhao could speak, Asahina Taichao said respectfully, "Please rest assured, even if your subordinates fight for their lives, they will not let the Takeda army attack Yuanjiang!" ”

"Lord Asahina's loyalty and courage are naturally trustworthy, but at this time, with the situation of the family, even if he can block the attack of the Takeda family, it is not a long-term solution." A soft voice rang out, and hearing this, Uden Nagasho and Asahina Taichao frowned at the same time. Because the owner of this voice is none other than Hayakawa, the real lady of the Imagawa clan.

This time, the Imagawa clan really only recruited the Uden Nagasho and the Asahina Tai Dynasty, because now the wealthy clans on the side of the Enoe have also become agitated because of the Takeda's invasion of Suruga, so that the Imagawa clan really does not dare to trust these wealthy clans of the Enoe too much. In this regard, whether it is Asahina Tai Chao or Uden Nagasho, naturally they will not say much, in fact, they also feel that it is right for the Imagawa clan to be really careful. But having Hayakawa appear on such an occasion really made it a little difficult for them to accept.

Although Hayakawa was a disciple of Shou Gui Ni, and Shou Gui Ni was known as a female daimyo in the past, this was completely unable to make the two of Asahina Tai accept that Hayakawa also appeared in this kind of place to discuss military affairs. It's just that Hayakawa's identity is here, and at the same time, the Imagawa clan really didn't say anything, so it was difficult for the two of them to speak.

It's just that Hayakawa didn't seem to see the expressions of the two, but turned his head to look at Imagawa Shinma and said, "With Takeda Shingen's character, I'm afraid I won't give my family too much time to prepare, maybe Takeda Shingen won't wait for Suruga to be completely calmed down after learning the news that His Royal Highness has gone to Enoe, and he will let his generals directly lead the army to attack Enoe." And most importantly, what will the Oda family do after learning that the Takeda family has occupied Suruga? ”

The last question, Hayakawa looked at the two of them. Faced with this question, the faces of Uden Nagasho and Asahina Taichao became grim, obviously thinking of the possible reaction of the Oda family.

"Yes, I'm also worried about this, although the Oda family secretly surrendered to the Oda family in the past, but if it was known that the Takeda family had captured Suruga, then the Oda family would definitely not have taken any action." Speaking of this, the Imagawa clan couldn't help but laugh at himself and said, "After all, the Oda family has never attacked the main family, in order to let the main family serve as a buffer area between them and the Takeda family?" ”

Well, although it is very ugly to say this, it is also what the Kawa clan said today, and this is the purpose of the Oda family. This is a fact that neither the Asahinai Tai Dynasty nor the Urina Changzhao can deny.

Glancing at each other, the chief of the pelican hall asked tentatively, "What ......do you mean?"

Hearing this, Imagawa Shin did not answer, but turned his head to look at Hayakawa.

Seeing this, Hayakawa said directly, "When the teacher died, he once said that the courage of the husband is just a momentary pleasure, and the continuation of the family is a manifestation of the wisdom of a family governor." The concubine thought it was time to make a choice. ”

In a word, the faces of Uden Nagasho and Asahina Taichao changed again, becoming extremely ugly and angry, if it weren't for the presence of the Imagawa clan, and Hayakawa was the true lady of the Imagawa clan, I am afraid that these two people would directly pull out their knives and cut people. However, this is also normal, Hayakawa's words undoubtedly made the Imagawa clan really choose to submit to the Takeda family or the Oda family, which is definitely an indelible shame for the Imagawa family, who is a famous family.

However, their anger only lasted for a short time, and it wilted like a deflated balloon. Because they suddenly found that it seemed that the Imagawa family had no choice but this method.

"Lordship......" The two of them shouted in a tone of shame. The decline of the lord's family is the shame of the retainers, and now these two people are ashamed because they feel that they cannot share the worries of the lord's family.

Waving his hand, Imagawa chuckled and said, "You've done a great job, don't feel guilty." All this is just that I was too naΓ―ve. At the end, the Imagawa clan couldn't help but sigh and said, "I believe in Uesugi Kenshin too much, thinking that with him and the Hojo family, even if the Uesugi family does not send troops to attack, it will be enough for the Takeda family to throw a mouse, and they dare not attack the main family with all their might." But where did you think of it......"

The Imagawa clan really had doubts about the fact that after learning that the Uesugi family sent troops to Shinano, it didn't take long for them to withdraw and return, but thinking of the feud between the Uesugi family and the Takeda family, he didn't believe that the two of them could reconcile or even join forces. Now it seems that he really underestimated these two heroes who were able to create the name of the dragon and tiger in such troubled times.

"But...... "Asahi wanted to say something more than Natai Chao, but was stopped by the Imagawa clan." I'm ready to formally surrender to the Oda family, what do you think? ”

"Lord?!" Although they were prepared, they really heard Imagawa Shin say this, which still made it difficult for the two of them to accept it. After all, the Imagawa family is a famous family! And just a few years ago, Imagawa Yoshimoto was known as the first bow of Tokaido.

It's just that the Imagawa clan has obviously made up his mind, and he didn't pay attention to the grief and indignation of the two of them, but just said to himself, "My father died at the hands of the Oda family, but at that time, the main family and the Oda family have always been enemies, and it was the head of the family who attacked the Oda family. Moreover, it is said that my father was killed in battle with Oda Nobunaga, so it is not an insult to my father......"

"And the Takeda family, but when the family is weak, they broke the alliance and attacked the family!" When Imagawa said this, his expression couldn't help but become hideous.

Uden Nagasho and Asahina Tai glanced at each other when they heard this, and it was obvious that although Imagawa Shin did not say his decision, there was already a clear tendency in his words.
