……

In the port of Kai Town, a monk dressed as an ascetic slowly stepped down from the boat and looked up at the bustling crowd, "I didn't expect that in just a few months, there would be so many changes here." Oda Nobunaga really dared to do what he dared to do if he abolished customs duties and other taxes and replaced them with transaction taxes......" The monk thought to himself, and then pressed down the hat on his head and slowly walked forward with his staff.

In a short time, he came to the foot of a mountain, and when he looked up, a huge city was perched on top of the mountain. It's just strange that inside this castle tower is not a castle tower, but a temple.

The monk walked forward slowly, and was stopped by a young monk after a while, "Where is the master?" ”

"I have heard for a long time that the master of Honganji Temple is profound in Buddhism, and the little monk specially came from the western country to ask for some confusion about Buddhism." The monk sang a promise and said respectfully.

"It turned out to be a high monk from the western country, and the Dharma Master will be very happy to hear about it." When the little monk heard this, he did not doubt him, because such monks were not uncommon. Most of them come from all over the country, and they don't just come to visit Honganji, but they also go to places such as Nara, Kyoto, and Mt. Hiei to discuss Buddhism. The reason is simple: is the cultural center of the whole of Japan, and there are countless monks here.

Of course, not everyone who comes to Honganji can meet him personally, after all, even if Honganji is just an ordinary Buddhist master, he has a lot of things to do. Therefore, the person who received this monk was nothing more than a governor monk of Honganji.

"Amitabha! The poor monk is Huiming of Honganji, I don't know what the master is confused, if the poor monk can't solve the puzzle, and then introduce the Dharma master to you. Hui Ming sang a promise and said, but the tone was quite flat, obviously although he said it well, but.

When the monk heard this, his eyes wandered on Huiming's body for a long time, and he saw that Huiming was uncomfortable. At this time, he chuckled and said, "You can't solve my doubts, so please come to the Lord of the Manifest Law......

Hearing this, Hui Ming suddenly froze, but when he saw the other party's soft, but irresistible eyes, he finally nodded and said, "Master, please come here to ......" The tone was more respectful.

After a short time, Huiming took the monk to a main hall, and saw a young monk sitting in front of a Buddha statue made of pure gold, which was none other than Honganji Temple, the Dharma Master of Honganji Temple.

"Dharma Master, there is a high monk from the Western Kingdom, and the disciples can't solve his doubts." Hui Ming said respectfully.

"Oh? I don't know if it's the monk from the West? Hearing this, Honganji Xianru turned around and looked curiously at the monk standing beside Huiming.

"It's the poor monk ......" The monk heard the words of Honganji Xianru, chuckled and walked into the main hall, looked at Honganji Xianru and said lightly. Outside the hall, Hui Ming looked at the monk with a bewildered expression, obviously not understanding why the monk did such a rude thing.

Honganji's gaze kept rolling on the monk's face, and he was not angry, but just wondered why the monk was so bold. Although Honganji is a sect of Buddhism, people in the world prefer to call Honganji a monk's daimyō. Because since 1560, the 17-year-old Honganji Xianru officially dragged Honganji into the quagmire of the Warring States Troubled Times.

Although with the Oda family's Kamiraku, Honganji seems to have reverted to an ordinary Buddhist sect, and was even constantly urged by Oda Nobunaga to quit Ishiyama Honganji. But if you think that Honganji is a good man and a woman because of this, then you are very wrong.

It was only a moment later that Honganji Xianru began to be suspicious in his heart, because the monk in front of him did not have the slightest panic in his eyes under his gaze. It's not that Honganji is arrogant or arrogant, but ordinary monks or samurai can't hold out for long in the face of his gaze.

At this moment, the monk spoke, "It is clear that the Dharma Master does not need to be suspicious, the poor monk is indeed here to seek advice and solve doubts......

Hearing this, Honganji Xianru waved his hand to Huiming, who was still standing outside the hall, looked at the monk and asked with a chuckle, "Master, please speak." ”

"The Oda family ......," the monk said lightly. Although there were only three words, it directly made Honganji appear to stand up in shock. He looked at the monk in front of him in disbelief, and his sharp eyes seemed to be trying to see through the depths of his heart.

It's just a pity that he failed again, and in the face of Honganji Xianru's gaze, the monk still just stood there calmly, looking at Honganji Xianru with a smile in his eyes.

Seeing this, Honganji Xianru quickly thought twice in his heart, and then asked the monk respectfully, "The master is from the western country?" ”

"Exactly ......"

"Coming for the Oda family?"

"Yes and no......"

Hearing this, Honganji Xianru looked at the monk in front of him again, and then stretched out his hand to the side, "In this case, please also ask the master to enter the secret room with this seat to discuss in detail." ”

"So much the best!"

As Honganji Xianru walked into the secret room, the monk looked at Honganji Xianru and smiled, "Just now, the poor monk was rude, and I hope that the Dharma Master looks strange." ”

Hearing the monk's words, Honganji Xianru also smiled and said, "I have long heard that there is a master of the Maori family named Ankokuji Huiqiong, who is not only profound, but also a retainer who is very valued by His Royal Highness Maori. I saw it today, and it really lived up to its name. ”

Hearing this, Hui Qiong of Anguo Temple chuckled and said, "The Dharma Master has won the award, and the poor monk is just a little monk who can't avoid vulgarity." ”

"Haha~ If you are a little monk, master, then what is this seat? Have a seat! Honganji Xianru laughed.

The two of them sat down and after a polite exchange, Huiqiong of Anguo Temple said in a deep voice, "I believe that the purpose of the poor monk's visit should be clear." ”

Hearing this, Honganji Xianru nodded and said, "But with the strength of this temple, it is not very realistic to deal with the Oda family......"

"Hehe, the Dharma Master said that he laughed, who doesn't know that the influence of Honganji is all over the world?" Ankokuji Huiqiong chuckled, "And this family will not let you fight against the Oda family alone, before coming here, the poor monk has already discussed this matter with the three members of the Miyoshi family." ”

"Oh?!" Honganji Xianru's eyes lit up when he heard this, but then he regained his composure, "But even so, it's still not an opponent of the Oda family." Perhaps the master has lived in the western region for a long time and does not know much about the current situation in. However, the Oda family at this time is not comparable to the Miyoshi family in the past. Even if Miyoshi and Honji join forces, they are no match for the Oda family. ”

"Hehe~ What if you add the Tanba family and the Asakura family?" Ankokuji Huiqiong looked at Honganji Xianru and chuckled. "Moreover, the poor monk is also going to go to Jiafei......"

"What?!" Honganji Xianru stood up instantly when he heard this, looked at Ankokuji Huiqiong with a shocked face, and asked in disbelief, "This is what His Highness Maori meant?!" ”

Hearing this, Ankokuji Huiqiong smiled and nodded, "Yes, although the daimyo around today may not be the opponent of the Oda family if you talk about one or two alone, but if you unite all of them......"

"Not bad! If that's the case......" Honganji Xian muttered excitedly, but then instantly became calm and sat down, "The master laughed, if you want to unite so many daimyos, I'm afraid you don't have that ability alone......" As he spoke, he looked at Ankokuji Huiqiong with blazing eyes, as if he wanted to see some clues in his eyes.

"Hehe, whether the family has the ability or not doesn't worry about the Dharma Master, as long as you do what the family wants to see at the right time......" Anguoji Huiqiong said with a chuckle.

Silently staring at Anguo Temple Huiqiong, in the end, Honganji Xianru still nodded and said, "In that case, this seat agreed, I just hope that the master will not let the family wait too long......"

"Please rest assured that ...... Master"

At the same time, Kanto Kamikoku Kururi Castle.

This castle is the residence of the governor of the Satomi family, Satomi Yoshiyao, and since 1541, when Yoshiyao took advantage of the death of the Hojo clan of the Hojo family, the Hojo clan Yasushi had just succeeded to the throne, and the storm swept away the Kamiso country. Since then, he has transferred his residence here, hoping to start his hegemony in Kanto from here.

Speaking of this Satomi Yoshiyao, I have to say that he is a fairly underestimated brother in later generations. His upbringing is no different from that of many awesome daimyos, the same as infighting. It's just that he killed his cousin, and then inherited the family governor as a member of the family.

But no matter what, after all, it can still be attributed to the blood competition. Well...... Speaking of which, the infighting in this era seems to be a proof of all the powerful daimyo. For example, Oda Nobunaga, who defeated his younger brother, such as Mori Motosa, still defeated his younger brother. Others, such as Takeda Shingen, Uesugi Kenshin, and so on, are all like this.

Of course, it is not without the same awesomeness after the peaceful succession, such as the Hojo clan, the Hojo clan, and the Hojo clan. Well...... Well, none of them seem to have really unified Kanto for three generations. Ahem, but that doesn't prevent the fact that it's the most powerful name in Kanto.

The reason why this Satomi Yoshiyao classmate is awesome is that there must be something awesome. And the most awesome place is that with the territory of less than 100,000 koku in Anfang Country, while resisting the powerful Hojo family, while developing the territory, while expanding outward. Now, although he was defeated by the Hojo family, he still relied on the battle of Mifune Mountain, and finally won back a city, and firmly controlled the upper country, and continued to infiltrate the lower country.

Now, the Takeda family's attack on the Imagawa family led to the dissolution of the Triple Alliance, and the Hojo family had to shift their focus from the Kanto side to Kai and Suruga. This gave Satomi Yoshiyao and the rest of the Kanto clan the best chance to stabilize their territory and expand their territory.

Satomi Yoshiyao did exactly that, and under his military strategy, the country was almost completely taken down by him, but because of this, Satomi Yoshiyao ushered in the hostility of another powerful force. That is the Satake family, a powerful force that is famous in Kanto.

Although the governor of the Satake family, Yoshishige Satake, is only 20 years old, he is already a famous general who has been called the ghost of Kanto. At the age of 16, when he succeeded to the throne of his family, he led his army to defeat the heroic Soma Moriyin of Mutsu, and then showed his superb military strategy and continued to expand his influence in the Kanto region.

It's just that the conflict with the Satake family is something Satomi Yoshiyao definitely doesn't want to see, because he knows very well that whether it is him or the Satake family, there is only one real enemy, and that is the Hojo family. It's just a matter of saying, but as long as the Satomi family wants to expand their territory to the next president, there is no possibility of peace between them and the Satake family.

"Huh? An emissary of the Takeda family? Please! Satomi Yoshiyao said immediately after hearing the news of the small surname. Ever since the Takeda family and the Hojo family re-became enemies, the Satomi family has been in frequent contact with the Takeda family. The Takeda family needs the Satomi family to help contain the Hojo family, and the Satomi family also has such needs. As for Takeda's belief in Xuanyan and not in faith? Hawkers, at least when he has the common enemy of the Hojo family, Takeda Shingen can still believe it.

After a while, a young man walked in slowly, "In Shimomu Masayuki, I've seen His Highness Satomi!" Muto Masayuki said respectfully, it was the former Muto Kibei.

"It turned out that he was a wise general who was called the purpose of Xinxuan, I don't know what is the important thing for Your Excellency to come?" Satomi asked lightly.

Okay, Shingen's eyes, what a title of cheating, but looking at Muto Masayuki's appearance, it seems that he is still very satisfied with this title. But in any case, it is already the best compliment for a family governor of another power to know his title as a young samurai who is only 20 years old.

"I am here this time on the orders of the Lord, hoping to reach an alliance agreement with you! At the same time, I hope to use your influence to contact many daimyo in the Kanto region and fight against the Hojo family! Muto Masayuki looked at Satomi Yoshiyao and said respectfully.

"Oh? Contact the many daimyo in Kanto? Could it be that Xuan Gong also has the same plans as that Uesugi Kenshin? Satomi asked strangely when he heard this.

Well, in the past, Uesugi Kenshin inherited the family name of Uesugi Kenmasa, and then summoned the Kanto group of heroes to attack the Hojo family in the name of the Kanto governor. It's just that the Kanto heroes ushered it in with hope, but finally dispersed in disappointment. Because Takeda Shingen sent troops to Echigo, Uesugi Kenshin had to withdraw his troops and return to Echigo.

And now, Takeda Shingen actually wants to contact the Kanto Kuo, and Satomi Yoshiyao naturally remembers this matter again.
