"How do we bring the Sanada family to our side? I'm afraid Lord Yidezhai won't. Takeda Katsuki's brows furrowed slightly, as if he felt unlikely.

Li Xiao laughed: "How does His Highness know that Lord Yidezhai is unwilling, I guess, maybe he is already inclined to His Highness in his heart." ”

"Lord Yidezhai has long been inclined to me?" Takeda Katsumi said in surprise.

"Now the very simple fact is in front of His Highness, if His Highness inherits the Takeda family, or His Royal Highness Yoshinobu inherits the Takeda family, then the interests of the Sanada family are greater?" Li Xiao asked bluntly.

Takeda Katsuki thought for a moment and said: "It must be me, Masayuki has now become my resourcefulness and confidant, and in the future, when I take the throne, I will definitely reuse Masayuki, so that the Sanada family can also benefit a lot." ”

Li Xiao nodded and said: "With the wisdom of Lord Yidezhai, in my Takeda family, it is no less than the three of them, Lord Shin Xuan, Lord Shin Fan, and Lord Yamamoto Kansuke. And I see that Lord Yidezhai used to act, often with a small and broad, although he acted risky, but often at the least cost, to obtain the greatest benefits, and empty-handed Shicheng is the best example. Therefore, Lord Yidezhai has quietly pressed a bet on His Royal Highness Shenglai. ”

"Are you saying that Lord Yitokusai sent Masayuki under my command before, just to make a bet, do I have any hope of becoming the governor of the Takeda family thanks to His Royal Highness?"

"That's right." Li Xiao smiled slightly, he remembered the night when he stayed at Huilin Temple and tricked Sanada Masayuki into joining the side of Katsuyori's camp. When he confessed to Sanada Masayuki that Takeda Katsuyo had ambitions to take charge of the Takeda family.

Sanada Yutaka didn't hesitate for long, just as he wished, to give Sanada Masayuki to Takeda Katsuyu as a retainer, maybe this old and young two foxes, it was at that time, even if this one was approved, I wanted to make him a fortune in the battle for the throne of the Takeda family.

Because of the support for Shiro Katsuyori, the investment is the smallest, and the return in the future is the largest, which is very much in line with the surname of Sanada Old Fox. However, before Takeda Katsumi has achieved an absolute victory, it is impossible for Sanada Yutaka to jump out and clearly favor Takeda Katsumi, but it is absolutely possible for them to support them in secret.

Li Xiao pulled Sanada Yutaka to participate in Takeda Katsumi's Azuma County strategy this time, and the purpose was also to let Sanada Yutaka gamble. Increase the chips you bet, and the more chips a person bets, the higher the expected return will naturally be, so the more you will be involved in the game, from playing a handful of cards to a real gambler who can't afford to lose.

In this way, the Sanada family was really tied to the chariot by Takeda Katsuki.

Otherwise, Li Xiaoxin worked hard to plan for Takeda Katsuki for a long time, but Sanada was there, the old and young foxes were there, they couldn't do their work, and they just watched and didn't do anything and sat back and enjoyed the results, how could there be such a cheap thing, which made Li Xiao mentally balanced.

After explaining the reason to Takeda Katsuki, Takeda Katsuki suddenly realized.

However, Li Xiao continued: "But Your Highness, it is not enough to win over one Sanada family to help His Highness's great cause, and it is not enough to confront His Highness Yoshinobu, His Highness's top priority now is to expand his retainers' team." We Ming people often say that once a son of heaven is a courtier. My Takeda family now said that there is such a powerful group of retainers, and the backbone of it is not the lord who is the lord, Iitomi Genshiro, Baba, Naito, Takasaka and several other people who were single-handedly brought up. Therefore, the establishment of His Royal Highness's retainers is very important, and it cannot wait for the lord to determine the throne before establishing it, and it is necessary to start now. ”

Li Xiao suddenly felt that she was a bit like a long-tongued woman of her mother-in-law, and she dug out all the little thick black learning she had learned in her stomach over the years, reading history books, and throwing it to Takeda Katsu. Although the industry has a large rate of return, it is highly risky, hard-working, and there is no three golds, and various welfare insurance can be expected, once it fails, the only thing to do is to prepare in advance to run away.

"But it's so troublesome to win over a Sanada family, let alone other retainers?"

Li Xiaoyan said: "This is easy, isn't Lord Yamamoto a Zhishi this time?" His Royal Highness Katsuyori can advise the lord that his retainers do not have the right people to help, and take advantage of the problem of the strategy of Nishiueno Azuma-gun, and ask the lord to ask for more horses. My lord, I will definitely agree generously. However, other boarding horses can be arranged by the lord, but there is one candidate, and His Royal Highness Katsuyori must not ignore it, and must be named to the lord. ”

"Who is it?"

"Big Bear prepares to guard the morning show."

The big bear is with Sanada Yutaka and Kohata Kenshige, and the two of them together use the 'big body of the prisoner' for Shingen, the big bear of Echigo.

Originally from Uesugi Kenshin, the Echigo was in charge of the financial administration of Duan Shaona, but later because of the opportunity for Uesugi Kenshin to abandon the position of family governor and become a monk, at the instigation of Takeda Shingen, he took the opportunity to erup a counter-flag, but later failed.

Okuma Ashide's escape from Echigo left the Takeda family, and he is now a direct minister of Takeda Shingen.

In addition to the rebellion of Uesugi Kenshin, the most awesome thing happened was that when the Takeda family attacked Minowa Castle, he took dozens of people, the sword saint Kamiizumi Nobutsuna, and finally the two sides fought to a 'draw'.

It can be seen that the opponent's force value is also good, and he also has the ability to lead troops to fight.

Under the command of Takeda Katsubi, who recruited the other party, Li Xiao actually valued his talent in domestic affairs more.

In the past, Yamamoto Kansuke was a decathlon, military strategy, finance, military rations, personnel, and castle building, and he was meticulous in doing everything for Takeda Katsu. When Yamamoto Kansuke was there, Takeda Katsuki, including his retainers, all felt that this person was like Tang Seng, chattering, and annoying him, and now Yamamoto Kansuke is a teacher, and as soon as the person leaves, everyone thinks of his benefits.

The military affairs and Li Xiao helped Takeda Katsuki barely take care of it, and Nishimura Heizo, who succeeded Yamamoto Kansuke and served as the head of the internal affairs, looked like he was very busy, obviously lacking ability. Therefore, Li Xiaocai asked a veteran like Daxiong Chaoxiu to manage the internal affairs for Takeda Katsuki.

After all, Takeda Katsumi wants to compete for the throne, and the internal affairs are also a very important reference for Takeda Shingen to consider the abilities of his two sons. In addition to the strengths of a family head in military strategy, the territory also needs to be governed in an orderly manner.

In this regard, Takeda Shingen is an expert in this. During his reign, military strategy and people's livelihood were both developed.

The Koshu Law of the Reign promulgated by Takeda Shingen was one of the most famous divisions of the Warring States period, and was later adopted by many regulations of the Tokugawa Shogunate, and was implemented for hundreds of years. Not only that, Takeda Shingen is also controlling the water, excavating the gold mountain, and he has done an excellent job in the collar, which is still in the mouth of the people of Yamanashi Prefecture, and is still praising the benefits of Shingengong back then.

This is also one of the reasons why although Takeda Shingen has been repeatedly criticized in the area of morality, he has a high reputation among the people.

Takeda Katsuyo listened to Li Xiao's opinion, and then Takeda Katsuyo called Sanada Masayuki to tell him about the attack on Azuma County, and asked his father to help.

Sanada Masayuki glanced at Li Xiao after hearing this, and obviously guessed that it was his idea. And Li Xiao is also not secretive, anyway, when he conspires with Sanada, the father and son and the old fox, using the so-called yang conspiracy is definitely better than the means of conspiracy.

After hearing this, Sanada Masayuki did not object, and immediately decided to write a letter to his father, Sanada Istokusai.

Seeing that he was busy with all the business that should be done, Li Xiao began to tell Takeda Katsuki a little personal matter, that is, about the fact that when his Mingguo ramen restaurant opened, he asked Takeda Katsuki to bring all his retainers to the party.

Li Xiao also wants to use this celebrity effect to make a name for himself in Takato Town for his ramen restaurant.

Takeda Katsu listened to the food that he had never heard of before, and immediately felt fresh, so he agreed to it.
