Chapter 660: The Web Formed Again (3)
Odawara Castle, in the room of the Hojo clan, when the words of the wind demon Kotaro were finished, it suddenly became quiet, and the Hojo clan looked at the wind demon Kotaro with wide eyes, and the expression seemed to not believe his ears. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoBut it can't be helped, after all, this news is too unbelievable. When did the relationship between the Takeda family and the Uesugi family become so good? Aren't they going to do it when they meet?
But now, the Hojo clan doesn't bother to guess why the Takeda family and the Uesugi family got together, after all, no matter what the reason, if you go to see each other, you will know? After a short time, the Hojo clan came to the reception room and saw Sanada Yukitaka, who was sitting quietly in the room.
"Haha, I didn't expect to see the famous Takeda family attacking the bomb in this situation." As soon as he came in, Hojo Clan said with a laugh.
"Your Royal Highness Hojo, after you succeeded as the governor of the family, you continued to expand the influence of the Hojo family in the Kanto region, and every time the lord of the family talked about it, he admired your Highness very much." Sanada chuckled.
"Haha, now that I've been surrounded by the Uesugi family for more than two months, what is there to admire?" Hojo Clan laughed again, and then with a wave of his hand, he went straight to the point, "Say, what does the Takeda family mean?" How could you suddenly run over and plug in the foot? Have you forgotten the souls of Kawanakajima?! ā
In the end, Hojo Clan's tone was strong mockery, there was no way, the arrival of the Takeda family put Hojo Masa under a lot of pressure. Because if Takeda Shingen really intends to help the Uesugi family, then the Hojo family really has no hope.
It's a pity that Sanada Yutaka didn't seem to hear the ridicule of the Hojo clan at all, and just looked at him and said calmly, "The lord of this family sent me this time, but on behalf of the Uesugi family, I want you to surrender to you, hoping that you can surrender for the sake of the common people in Kanto, and for your sake, you can surrender to the Uesugi family......"
"What?!" When the Hojo clan heard this, he stood up immediately, he never thought that Sanada Yutaka really came to persuade him to surrender, and he also helped the Uesugi family to persuade him to surrender.
"Why?! Why?!! The Hojo clan shouted out a little out of control, he couldn't understand Takeda Shingen's approach at all, it was clear that the Takeda family and the Uesugi family were old enemies, and on Kawanaka Island, the two families didn't know how many retainers had died. But now...... The Hojo clan sat down all of a sudden, this news was obviously too shocking, so that he couldn't accept it at all for a while, even when he came, he already had a faint guess in his heart.
"The specific reason is inconvenient to tell, the lord of this family just asked me to convey to Your Highness, if you are not willing to surrender, then this family will have to participate in the war." Sanada Yutaka said threateningly, it seems that he doesn't care about his life and death at all, you must know that if the Hojo clan wants to kill him at this time, it really shouldn't be too simple.
But obviously, the Hojo clan at this time didn't have that kind of mind at all, or he didn't have any thoughts at all at this time, because his head was already a mess now, and he didn't know what to do.
Seeing the appearance of the Hojo clan, Sanada Yukitaka secretly sneered in his heart, "It seems that the Hojo family is going to be finished from this generation......" Well, although Sanada Yukitaka has not had much contact with the Hojo clan, but from such a short contact now, Sanada Yukitaka can learn a lot of information. At least, in the face of such a desperate choice, the Hojo clan did not show the characteristics of a generation of famous masters.
Sanada Yutaka did not urge, but waited quietly, he knew that if he urged at this time, it would only bring a bad impact. It's just that it didn't take long for the Hojo clan to calm down, but another person slowly walked out with the support of the little surname.
"Father?!"
"His Highness Hojo?!"
Hojo Clan Masato and Sanada Yukitaka were shocked at the same time, apparently neither of them expected Hojo Clan Yasushi to appear here. You must know that the news of Hojo's serious illness has already spread at this time, otherwise, Uesugi Kenshin would not have surrounded it for so long, and Takeda Shingen would not have chosen to help the Uesugi family so easily.
Although even if Hojo Shiyasu is not seriously ill, he may not be able to stop the Uesugi army, but the shadow of a famous tree, sometimes, the existence of one person is enough to resist thousands of troops. Of course, the most important thing is that the 100,000 troops outside Odawara Castle at this time are only the Kwantung Coalition Army, otherwise even if all the famous lords of the Hojo family are resurrected, they will not be able to stop the offensive of the Uesugi army.
waved his hand, and then Hojo Shiyasu sat on the left hand side of Hojo Shimasa, "I have already heard what Sanada-sama said just now, I don't know how the family will deal with itself if it is surrendered?" Hojo asked directly.
As soon as these words came out, the Hojo clan was immediately stunned, he couldn't imagine that his father was ready to submit as soon as he came forward. But obviously, there is nothing for him to do at this time, although the Hojo clan is the governor of the Hojo family, but when the Hojo clan Yasu speaks, the matter is no longer something that the Hojo clan can decide. Because as long as the Hojo clan Yasu does not die, then the power of the Hojo family will never really fall into the hands of the Hojo clan.
"Please rest assured, Lord Hojo, as long as the Hojo family is willing to submit, then the Hojo family will keep their current territory. Of course, territories that have already been taken by other forces are not among them. Sanada Yutaka calmed down and said in a deep voice.
"I see, then I agreed on behalf of the Hojo family." Hojo Shiyasu said lightly, as if what he promised was just a simple thing like going out to have a meal together. Then, Hojo Shiyasu turned his head to look at Hojo Shimasa and chuckled, "Shizhen, write a surrender letter." Also, let's go to the Uesugi house as a hostage. ā
"Father?!" Hojo Masa exclaimed, he could not have imagined that his father would not only agree to surrender so easily, but also decide to give him hostage without even thinking about it.
"Do it!" Regarding the dissatisfaction of the Hojo clan, the Hojo clan only has two faint words.
Gritting his teeth, the Hojo clan kept panting, obviously the anger in his heart was difficult to calm down. It's just that under the calm gaze of Hojo Clan's eyes, in the end, Hojo Clan Masaa still sat down, and the submission was written in a few strokes.
"In this case, I will immediately return and convey this matter to His Highness Uesugi and the lord of the family." Sanada Yutaka said respectfully after receiving the surrender letter.
"Let's take Dexido with us, and then I hope that the big troops outside the city can withdraw immediately......" Hojo Shiyasu chuckled.
"That's nature!"
