Chapter 496: A Smile and a Grudge
Hearing that Takeda Nobuyoshi invited himself to go to the Hesaki Pavilion - kbook update
Li Xiao hesitated when he heard this, and stopped in the room.
Li Xiao looked at the warrior and asked knowingly, "What's the matter?" ”
The samurai said, "I heard from the messenger that Uesugi, Oda, and Tokugawa are besieging the house on three sides, so 100,000 people are in danger, so please go to the lord immediately to discuss." ”
When Li Xiao heard this, he snorted softly, closed his eyes and said: "Go back and tell me, Xinfan, Xinlian, the two adults, just say that I, Li Xiao, have lived in seclusion and will not ask about anything at home, and I can't do anything about this matter, I'm very sorry." ”
"Lord!"
The warrior was stunned.
Li Xiao's eyes widened, and he said, "Just say so, go quickly." ”
"Oh!"
When the warrior heard this, he immediately turned around and went out.
Hearing Li Xiao say this, Yumi Kohata and Yuzhen Kohata stood beside Li Xiao, as if they had something to say.
Li Xiao looked at his two wives and said with a smile: "I already have a claim on this matter, so let me deal with it." ”
When the little hata sisters heard Li Xiao say this, they could only nod.
Hearing their reply, Li Xiao hugged their slender waists, but looked aggressively in the direction of the Akizaki Pavilion.
"What? Major General Konoe actually refused to make a comeback? ”
In the main hall of the Tsukizaki Pavilion, all the retainers were shocked when they heard the reply of the samurai who went to deliver the message.
In the middle of the crowd, Nobuyoshi immediately said angrily: "Major General Guard, what are you doing?" At this time, are you still angry like a child? ”
Traces of Shengzi, who has always had prejudices against Li Xiao, said: "Everyone, I think Li Xiao wants to take advantage of the family's embarrassment to threaten the matter of going out of the mountain to squeeze more benefits, in my opinion, even if there is no Li Xiao, the family is not afraid of Uesugi Kenshin." You don't have to invite him, just let him go to Qinggao alone. ”
Both men looked angry.
At this time, Takeda Nobuyoshi looked at them and said coldly: "What the two of you said makes sense, since Uesugi Kenshin is fighting now, it is up to you to resist." ”
Listening to Takeda Nobushi's reprimand, the two of them couldn't get off the stage at the moment, but at this moment, they could only sit back in their positions dumbly.
Seeing that his son was reprimanded by Takeda Nobuyoshi, Kawaki Nobuyoshi couldn't hold his face at the moment, and said: "Brother, the current Major General of the Guard, because this matter is indeed too narrow-minded, when the family is in danger, he shirks it here, so is this the way to repay the two museum owners for their kindness to him back then?" ”
"Moreover, it was his own decision to retreat, and why is it that he blames us today?"
As He Qi opened his mouth faithfully, there was a lot of discussion among the retainers, and they also felt that Li Xiao was closing the door at the moment, which was indeed wrong.
Li Xiaowu was in the middle of the house, after the envoy of the main family left.
At this time, Usami Nami and Shigang Kazuyu also heard the news, and hurriedly came to Li Xiao and asked, "Lord, is there something wrong with Kofu?" ”
Li Xiao nodded, and handed over the secret letter given to him by Yokotani Yukishige to Usami Minami, and Shioka Kazuha and the two of them looked at it.
After the two of them saw it, Usami Nami was fine, but Shioka Kazuha wanted to speak and stopped, holding back the words in his heart.
Li Xiao looked at Shigang Yiyu's expression, smiled and said: "Yiyu, you and I have been kings and ministers for many years, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly, don't take it into account." ”
Shigang sighed and said: "Before, because of the affairs of the main family, the two adults of Xinlian and Xinfan treated the lord with a lot of injustice, but now the lord is in danger of survival, and he should put aside the past views and help the lord's family through this difficulty. ”…,
Shioka Kazuha was a man who dedicated his life to martial arts, and he also followed the rules of the samurai of this era.
Just like the concept that the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die, the lord's family is the lord's business for the ministers, but the retainers must be unconditional, loyal to the lord's family, and must not harbor grudges.
After Shigang Yiyu finished speaking, Li Xiao nodded and said approvingly: "Yiyu, it is really the style of the ancients. ”
At this time, Usami Minami said, "Your Majesty does not agree with Shioka-sama's opinion. ”
I only listened to Usamina's words: "The ancients also said, to repay grievances directly, after the previous Nagashino battle, the lord defeated Oda, to win Nobunaga, the battle is really the first, but after the war did not get the slightest reward, but was pressured by the lord's family, and in this case, the lord had to choose to retire in order to avoid conflict." ”
In this case, anyone who knows the lord must be dissatisfied in his heart, and when the lord's family is in trouble, it is not hypocritical and pretentious to complain with virtue. What's more, the world is tired of hypocrites, but not true villains. The lord can be upright, and it is better to get back this grievance in this case. ”
Listening to Usami Nami's words, Li Xiao couldn't help but nod and said, "The words of victory are deeply in line with my wishes." A feather, it's not that I'm hypocritical, in this case, polite refusal is the best choice. When you don't use it, the good bow is hidden, the lackeys cook, when you want to use it, in a word, where is there such a cheap thing, since I was forced to retire at the beginning, then today I have to put on a shelf, so that they know my personality! ”
Listening to Li Xiao's words, Shigang Yiyu looked half-confused, but still accepted it.
In the Tsugasaki Museum.
The controversy over Li Xiao continues.
He was extremely dissatisfied with Li Xiao's refusal to come back this time, and immediately made a statement in the main hall to say that Li Xiao was not.
At the beginning, Li Xiao killed all the Cave Mountain Xinjun, that is, this person, and instigated with the trace of Shengzi in the retainer group, saying that Li Xiao would be opposed.
Katsushi Kibe also echoed on the side, building momentum for Kawakushi Shinshi, and now that Mitsuken Nagasaka is dead, Katsushi Kibe feels a little lonely, so he turns to the side of the crowd and asks for support.
Heyao's faithful proposition is in line with him.
After all, Kawaya Nobuyoshi is different from his son's identity, Takeda Nobuyoshi heard it and stopped talking, but glanced at Takeda Nobuyoru.
Takeda Nobuyoru nodded knowingly, showing a helpless look, after all, if it weren't for Li Xiao's threat of retirement, Takeda Nobuhu would have passed the decision of Renna Shengxin to serve as the family governor at the meeting, and Takeda Nobukatsu probably wouldn't be where he is today.
At the beginning, Takeda Xinfan and Xinlian refused to come forward, but let Li Xiao bear it, and they did feel a little guilty about it.
Takeda Nobuyoshi said at this time: "No matter what you say, we still failed Li Xiao. ”
"Yes, at the beginning of the Nagashino battle, if it weren't for the strength of Major General Konoe, our army would have been defeated, and my life was also saved by Major General Konoe," one of the people said at this time, "In any case, people are mountains, people are cities, and the retainers are the foundation of our family, and we have indeed treated Major General Konoe poorly in the past two years." ”
Speaking of this, a Shinlong stood up and said, "When Major General Konoe retired, I didn't stop it, but today, when my family is in danger, I am willing to go to Dongguang Temple and beg him to come back." ”
After saying that, he strode out of the main hall, and soon after that, the sound of horses' hooves was heard outside the door.
"Reckless," Trace Shengzi couldn't help but reprimand behind his back, "A mere Li Xiao is worthy of putting down his face like this, but begging him." The more this happens, the more it will overestimate itself. ”
"Trace-sama, if you also have the ability to defeat Uesugi Kenshin, we will ask you to do the same."
Seeing his words, Katsushi Jibe was very embarrassed to be interrupted by another person, and turned his head to see that the other party was Takeda Nobutoshi, the son of Takeda Nobushiga. …,
Takeda Nobutoyo looked at Takeda Nobuhiro and said, "Father, Major General Konoe and I have a very good relationship, so please allow the child to go this way, and I implore Major General Konoe to come out of the mountain." ”
Takeda Nobuhiro nodded slightly and acquiesced to what Nobuhiro did.
After that, Takeda Nobuyoyo also strode out of the main hall, and after Takeda Nobuyoyo left, his younger brother Mochizuki Nobunaga also followed him.
"Damn."
Katsuzi was almost on the verge of stomping at the moment.
But with a Shinryu, Takeda Nobutoyo, Mochizuki Nobunaga, Mieda Moritomo, Ganli Nobuyasu, Yokota Yasukei and other generals also stood up and went with it.
In the end, even an important minister like Yuan Changyin, who was one of the two positions, also said: "Maybe if I come forward again, Li Xiao will sell me half of my face." ”
After that, Kawaya Nobutomi, Tracebe Katsushi, Koyamada Nobushige and others all looked at each other, and even Takeda Nobuyoshi and Takeda Nobushige were also a little helpless.
In the main hall, there was an embarrassment of silence for a long time.
Towards noon, a samurai rushed into the main hall and reported to Takeda Nobuhiro: "Lord Punishment, the 10,000 troops of the Oda family's Ise Army, led by Takigawa Kazuki and Kitada Nobuo, have entered Mikawa and are ready to join the main force of the Tokugawa Army. ”
"Even the Ise Army was transferred, and I thought that the Oda family would order it to march to the side."
Takeda Nobuyoshi was slightly surprised, this news was obviously beyond his expectations.
In this way, the Racecourse Nobubo defended Enoe, and the Suruga Army of Suruga, the situation was undoubtedly even more tight.
"In addition, in the direction of Gifu Castle, the Nakasendo Corps of the Oda Army has been organized, and Oda Nobutada personally went out as the commander-in-chief, and with Kawajiri Hidetaka, Oda Nobuhiro, Oda Nobubo, and Oda Mashige as generals, mobilized 20,000 troops, and began to march towards Higashimino, and the direction of its attack should be Iwamura Castle, the main castle of Akiyama-sama."
Hearing the news, the important ministers of the Takeda family present were all shocked.
Now in the direction of Tokaido and Nakasendo, the strength of the enemy army has been clarified.
According to the instructions in the intelligence, the Oda family is now almost able to mobilize all the forces to cooperate with the attack of the Uesugi family.
In the direction of Kaga Hokurikudo, there is the 35,000 troops of the Shibata Army, in the direction of the Higashimino Nakasendo Route, the Nakasendo Army led by Oda Nobutada himself, with 20,000 troops, and in the direction of Tokaido Tokaido, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Takigawa Kazuyoshi's Oda Tokugawa coalition army, also has 20,000 troops.
The Oda Tokugawa family, which was in the three directions of Hokuriku, Nakasendo, and Tokaido, at the same time launched a full-scale war against the Takeda Army, the Hida Echichu Army, the Minami Shinano Army, and the Suruga Army.
In addition, Uesugi Kenshin's 20,000 Echigo troops who had already invaded Suruga, and 20,000 reinforcements from Mutsu and Dewa.
The three families of Uesugi, Tokugawa, and Oda gathered an army of 115,000 and laid siege to the Takeda family.
An attack of this magnitude can be described as unprecedented, not inferior to any siege network encountered by Nobunaga back then, and it is not too much to call it a Takeda siege network at this moment.
If the Hojo family joins again at this moment, the Takeda family can directly announce that they will withdraw from the stage of the Warring States.
Under such a dangerous situation, all the generals of the Takeda family present had a dead expression.
Takeda Nobuyoshi glanced at Takeda Nobukatsu, shook his head and said to Takeda Nobu: "In this case, what identity do we still take into account, we also have the responsibility to retire from Major General Konoe at the beginning, since this is the case, let go of this unnecessary reserve, and it can be regarded as compensation for the events of the year." ”
Takeda Nobuyoru smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said: "Brother, what I said is exact, I am willing to go with you and want Li Xiao to make amends." ”
And the trace of Shengzi hurriedly said: "Chaoyue Gong, Xinlian Gong, if you go, will it be difficult to restore the face of your family?" Just one Li Xiao, is it worth it? ”…,
Takeda Shinho stepped forward and patted Katsushi on the shoulder, and said, "Lord Jibu, I know that you have a personal grudge with Li Xiao, but now is not the time to be rash. ”
At this moment, even Kawaya Nobuyoshi and Oyamada Nobushige didn't speak.
At this moment, a samurai had already hurriedly entered the main hall and wanted to report to Takeda Nobu, "Lord of the Criminal Department, Major General Konoe, has agreed to participate in the military council. ”
Not only Takeda Nobulian, but also Takeda Nobushi, the young family governor Takeda Nobukatsu listened, and it was Huo Ran who stood up from the stacked mat and asked, "Is this true?" ”
The samurai sighed and said, "Lord Hui, this matter is true, Major General Konoe has changed his decision, and is now coming to the main hall. ”
Takeda Nobushi, Takeda Nobuyoshi listened and nodded.
Takeda Xin said: "It seems that Li Xiao is just doing this battle of will, not insisting on doing it. ”
Takeda Shin said honestly: "Exactly, Major General Konoe is by no means a narrow-minded person, although he is negative, but at the moment when the survival of his family is in danger, he will never stand idly by." ”
Seeing this situation, Katsuzi couldn't help but be very jealous, and originally wanted to say something to hit Li Xiao, but thinking that it would not have any effect now, he held the words in his heart, and his face turned red with anger.
Although he hates Li Xiao, he is not as loyal to his own family as Nagasaka Guangjian, and he also understands that Li Xiaozhi's comeback is indispensable to the main family, and he will press this matter down at the moment.
Now in the main hall of the Akizaki Pavilion.
Li Xiao strode forward, and then more than a dozen retainers of the Takeda family, such as Takeda Nobutoshi and Mochizuki Nobunaga, followed behind.
Li Xiao strode into the main hall, and resigned from the position of family governor here that day, although Takeda Xinhu could not get down the steps on the spot, but he was also holding his breath in his heart.
Although Takeda Shinhu died soon after that, Li Xiao really found his way back today.
Li Xiao strode into the main hall, Takeda Xinlian, Takeda Xinfan all got up at this moment, and said happily: "Yagata Palace, it's really good to be here." ”
Li Xiao laughed when he heard this, and said: "Two adults, please forgive me for coming down this step, I was not it before, I was offended." ”
Takeda Xinlian, Takeda Xinfan heard Li Xiao take the initiative to say this, and they all laughed at the moment.
There is a bit of a smile and hatred in it, putting aside all the things in the past, what is more important at this moment than helping the Takeda family tide over this difficulty.
At the moment when the Takeda family is in crisis, the retainers are sitting down again and working together to tide over the difficulties.
For Li Xiao, this is also an unprecedented test.
