Speaking of which, the Hojo family is actually a complete tragedy, from Hojo Sakumo to Hojo Shiyasu, three generations of family governors are all famous masters. If the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info were placed elsewhere, I'm afraid that the Hojo family would have soared into the sky and become a real lion in troubled times. It's a pity that the Hojo family is in Sagami, which is doomed to the tragedy of the Hojo family.

Since Hojo Sakumo, the Hojo family has been constantly attacking each other with the Kanto heroes, looking forward to one day being able to dominate the Kanto region and then seize the world.

There was nothing wrong with this choice, because the precedent for seizing the world from the Kanto region had already been set for a long time. It's just that the strength of the Kanto heroes is obviously far beyond the expectations of the Hojo family, and more importantly, the dragon, the tiger and the giants of the East China Sea were also born near the Kanto region. I really don't know if this generation is an outstanding person, or if God deliberately made things difficult for the Hojo family.

And now, Hojo Shiyasu knows that he may not be able to survive this year, so he hopes that before he dies, he can pave the way for the Hojo family. Although the Hojo clan has matured, it is a matter of the survival of the Hojo family, and the Hojo clan still does not dare to be careless.

As for Hojo's decision, Hojo Masashi did not object. Although he is the governor of the family, and since Hojo Shiyasu became seriously ill, he has all the rights of the governor, but now in the face of this difficult choice, he is really a little powerless.

Hojo Clan Masashi is determined to listen to Hojo Shiyasu and wait for the Oda family's reaction. On the other hand, when the news of the Takeda family's submission reached Harima, Kobayakawa Takakei was stunned for a moment.

"How...... Will it become like this?! Kobayakawa Takakei stared at the ninja who reported the news, as if he was about to eat people. He didn't doubt the authenticity of the information, though it sounded very much like it was fake.

"Kobayakawa-sama......" Motojo Motojin looked at Kobayakawa Takakei and wanted to persuade him, but he didn't know what to say. And everyone else is the same, with a bewildered look, obviously the shock to them is too great.

Speaking of which, at the beginning, Kobayakawa Takakei really hoped that the main forces of Oda Yoshinobu and Oda Nobunaga would be able to go to the other two battlefields. But now, Oda Yoshinobu's main force is indeed in the past, but before Kobayakawa Takakei and the others have reacted, Takeda Shingen has already lost.

After a long while, Kobayakawa Takakei came back to his senses, then glanced around at everyone, and said with a gloomy face, "Pass the order, the whole army will ......" Speaking of this, Kobayakawa Takakei paused, and his open mouth couldn't spit out a word for a while.

"Withdraw Bizen ......" rang for a long time before Takakei Kobayakawa spat out the last four words. And with these two, Kobayakawa Takakei sat heavily on the bench, shrugging his head, as if he had lost all his strength.

"Kobayakawa-sama, don't be discouraged, we still have a chance to win!" Seeing this, Yuanzhen persuaded him, but to put it mildly, he was just repeating these unconvincing words. Because he can also see, or the masters here, can see that the surrender of the Takeda family has completely turned the situation to the side of the Oda family.

The Uesugi family's side of the castle Motojin is not clear, but he is very clear about the situation on the Maori family's side. The parity is the result of the confrontation between the Mori family's Sanyo Provincial Army and the military forces of Yushiba Hideyoshi, Maeda Toshiya and others. In his mind, the mountain ** army faced the military strength of Niwa Nagahide and Akechi Mitsuhide and others, at best.

And now, the submission of the Takeda family means that this stalemate is about to be broken, and in this regard, at least Motojo Motozhen can't think of any good ideas. Because to put it bluntly, whether it is Oda Nobunaga or Oda Yoshinobu, when their main force feels here, the Oda army will have an absolute advantage in terms of troops.

At the same time, more importantly, without the containment of the Takeda family, the Oda family only needs to concentrate on dealing with the Mori and Uesugi families. And if the Oda family wants to be safe, they can send the main forces of Oda Nobunaga and Oda Yoshinobu to one battlefield, and under that kind of absolute superiority, whether it is the Uesugi family or the Mori family, there is no possibility of resistance at all. Therefore, it is undoubtedly the best choice to wait for the situation to change before retreating.

It's just that, if it were just like that, Kobayakawa Takakei wouldn't have had this reaction at all. "Defeated......" Kobayakawa Takashi thought helplessly as he looked at the sky. Unlike Motojin Honjo, in Kobayakawa Takakei's view, the surrender of the Takeda family not only means that the two main forces of Oda Nobunaga and Oda Yoshinobu will join the battlefield, but more importantly, the Mori and Uesugi families can no longer resist the general trend of the Oda family to unify the world.

And those who also have this idea, there is Yoshikawa Motoharu.

"Submitted?" Yoshikawa Motoharu looked at the ninja who reported it, and then at Inoue Motokan on the side, and finally sighed a little helplessly, "Withdraw the troops, there is no point in continuing to stalemate here." ”

Yes, there is no point in it, because the most important reason why the Maori family dares to go to war with the Oda family is to win over several of the most powerful forces in the world in addition to the Maori family and the Oda family. And although I heard something, neither Kobayakawa Takakei nor Yoshikawa Motoharu took the Oda family seriously.

But now, the Takeda family has surrendered, and in the process of fighting, they found that the Maori family is not the opponent of the Oda family at all in terms of the overall number of troops, soldier combat effectiveness, equipment, logistics, etc. If the Mori family and the Oda family had fought alone, they would not have been able to resist at all.

"I hope that my father can have a way to turn defeat into victory." Motoharu Yoshikawa and Takakei Kobayakawa thought of the man they had been chasing at the same time. They believed that their father would have a solution to the situation.

Almost at the same time, the Sanyo Province army led by Kobayakawa Takakei and the mountain ** army led by Yoshikawa Motoharu began to retreat to the rear. And in this regard, neither Hideyoshi Hashiba nor Akechi Mitsuhide chose to pursue, because they also received the news of the submission of the Takeda family.

"Come to think of it, the lord or Oda-sama will soon lead the main army over, and when the time comes, ......" There was a strange brilliance in everyone's eyes, because they knew that it would not be long before the Oda family would truly unify the world!

But Yushiba Hideyoshi and others chose to stand still, because at this time, no action is the biggest action. On the road to unifying the world, they don't want to make a big mistake because they are too anxious.

It may be said that they are cowardly or overly cautious, but that is exactly what they think. Moreover, the long stalemate has already exhausted the troops under their command physically and mentally, and it will take time to recover.
