Penal Department, Dayuan Temple.

In the main hall of the temple.

Shingen Takeda lowered his gaze and sat cross-legged on a stacked mat with a long coat draped over his shoulders.

Takeda Shingen's expression was very peaceful, his hands were folded, and strings of prayer beads were wrapped around his wrists.

In front of Takeda Shingen, one gate of Takeda Katsuyori, Takeda Nobuyo, Katsuyama Nobusada, Nishina Morinobu, a Shinryu, Takeda Shinshimi, and Anayama Meixue are all here.

In addition, more than 20 important ministers of the Takeda family, such as Yamayama Masakei, Baba Nobubo, Naito Masatyo, Oyamada Nobushige, Hara Masain, Tsuchiya Masaji, Sanada Nobutsuna, Takeda Nobutoyo, and Kohata Nobutada, knelt down in front of Shingen.

Now the faces of the generals in Shanxian County, Machang and other generals all showed gloomy colors.

Finally, Takeda Shingen slowly opened his eyes and said to the retainers, "I'm afraid I'll never see it again, and the day when my flag is erected in Kyoto." ”

Hearing Xuan's words, all the retainers had a look of sadness on their faces, and a few retainers secretly wiped their eyes.

Takeda Katsuyori said with a whimper: "Father, please take care, after returning to Kofu, you will definitely be able to take care of your body and make a comeback in the future!" ”

Takeda Shingen said calmly, "Don't say words of relief. I believe that Xuan's ambition in life is Shangluo, but after I die, you don't have to stick to my ambitions, you have to forget about it, keep it secret for at least three years, don't make a noise, give priority to garrisoning the territory, and don't act rashly. If anyone disobeys my orders and sends troops without permission, the Takeda family will surely perish. ”

Speaking of this, Takeda Shingen's eyes swept over the faces of the retainers, and he said in an accentuated voice, "You must remember this, and obey it as if it was my last order." ”

Hearing this, all the retainers bowed down with a sigh, indicating their obedience to Shinxuan's last orders.

On the other hand, Takeda Katsuyori's lips moved, and his fingers tightly pressed around his knees, as if he wanted to say something.

Takeda Shingen saw Takeda Katsuyori's expression, then pointed to a box and said, "There are 800 blank pieces of paper here, and I have drawn a monograph on them, and in the future, when the pleadings are sent by the country, I will reply with these pieces of paper with monograms." ”

"That's enough for you for three years. Now, three years later, you will put my body in armor ....... ”

"Father, I know that some things are extremely rude, but if I don't say them today, I will regret it later," Takeda Katsuyori suddenly raised his head and said sincerely, "Please leave the great cause of Shangluo to me." ”

"Your Highness, this is the lord's ...... Thou shalt not disobey it. As soon as Takeda Katsuyori finished speaking, Naito Masatochi reminded him loudly.

Takeda Katsuyori put his hands on his knees and said loudly: "I know, but I know my personality even more, if I were to be subordinate to Nobunaga and Ieyasu, and see them in the world and do nothing, then I might as well die, it will never be possible!" ”

"Instead of going against my father's wishes in the future, I should say what I think now, if my father doesn't allow it......"

Takeda Katsuyori didn't say, but glanced at his brothers Katsuyama Nobutada and Nishina Morinobu.

Katsuyama Nobusada and Nishina Morinobu are the same as Takeda Katsuyori, and they all have the inheritance rights of the Takeda family governor.

Hearing this, Takeda Shingen's face turned pale, and he stood up regardless of his illness and walked to the side to support his armor.

After that, Takeda Shingen took the Suwa Dharma Sex Pocket in his hand and smashed it into Takeda Katsuyori's face.

Takeda Katsuyori received a blow from Shingen, but instead bowed down, slammed his head on the floor, and said loudly: "Father, please forgive me for being unfilial." ”

All the retainers present were stunned, they had never seen Takeda Katsuyori so strong, daring to contradict Shingen in front of him, it was the other party's last order. …,

Takeda Shingen pointed to the Suwa helmet on the ground and said to Takeda Katsuyori, "Put it on for me." ”

Although Takeda Shingen is seriously ill and self-supporting, the lion is old, and the residual power still exists, and this Jiafei Tiger is not called by others in vain.

"Put it on." Shingen Takeda repeated it again.

Takeda Katsuyori glanced at Takeda Shingen hesitantly, still wearing the suwa helmet with a lion's head and a ghost face and white bear fur on his head.

The generals looked at Takeda Shingen, Takeda Katsuyori, father and son, and thought in their hearts, don't make any mess between the two at the last moment.

After that, Takeda Shingen gave an order to the little surname next to him, and the little surname walked into the house with an object in his hand from the side room.

This thing is stacked neatly on top of each other and is held in the hand of the little surname, which is the wind forest volcano flag of Xinxuan himself.

Takeda Shingen said slowly: "The son who won't contradict his father is not promising. I don't have a dog in my Takeda family. ”

Speaking of this, Takeda Shingen pointed his finger at Takeda Katsuyori and said, "I have used this flag and armor for more than twenty years, and in the future, the banner of this wind forest volcano and the Suwa French helmet will be entrusted to you." ”

"Father." Takeda Katsuyori's body shook and looked at Takeda Shingen.

Takeda Shingen said slowly: "It's ridiculous, I Shingen thought that I had no last resort and could arrange things behind me, but I was wrong. ”

"Well, Katsuyori, I don't know what the future holds for you, whether you can match Nobunaga, Kenshin, Ieyasu and others, all three of whom are the best in the world, no less than me, so I don't want you to take risks. But the world is changing, and I can get it for a while, but not for eternity, so I can't limit my eyes to you. ”

"Thank you, Father." Takeda Katsuyori suddenly burst into tears.

Takeda Shingen then pointed to the flag of the Wind Forest Volcano and said: "If you act arbitrarily in the future and destroy the Takeda family in your hands, even if I am ashamed to meet under the Yellow Spring, but if there is a successful day, I will put on a helmet and personally plant the flag of the Wind Forest Volcano on Kyoto, which can be regarded as fulfilling my lifelong wish on my behalf." ”

Takeda Katsuyori is well aware of the significance of Takeda Shingen's flag of the wind forest volcano and the Suwa helmet.

If you talk about the imperial flag, the shield has no armor, which is a symbol of the Takeda family's inheritance of Minamoto Yoshimitsu's first-class.

Then the meaning of the wind forest volcano and the Suwa helmet is the incarnation of Shingen, for more than 20 years, Shingen has held a banner and worn armor, and has been fighting in the east and west, invincible, and the heroes are afraid to obey.

The retainers of the Takeda family are all gathered under this banner.

The right to use Shingen's banner and armor is a continuation of Shingen's own will.

Takeda Shingen is also in Yama County, and said in front of such a heavy general as Baba that in the future, Katsuyori will be me, and what Katsuyori does is to inherit Shingen's ambition.

Takeda Katsuyori put his head on the back of his hand and bowed heavily to Shingen, indicating that he had received the Wind Forest Volcano and the Suwa Dharma Helmet.

After Takeda Katsuyori got up again, all the retainers looked at Takeda Katsuyori, and they all turned to the side and bowed deeply to him.

Seeing this, Takeda Shingen nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, the rest is over, everything is up to you." Burn all my flowers, after I die, Shiro will be the governor of the Takeda family, of course, I don't have to keep the news of my death, let's announce it to the world. ”

"If anyone dares to take advantage of my death to provoke my family, he will immediately send troops to destroy him, and he will not be merciful."

"Oh!"

All the retainers of Takeda bowed down to Shingen in unison.
