Chapter 355: Faith in Victory
As soon as the disease was cured, the lord sent me to the bitter cold Hokuriku." ”
Funamochi Castle," Shigeharu Takenaka said, holding a feather fan "and shaking it gently on his chest," in a teasing tone.
And Takeda Katsuyori" Li Xiao both sat on the side and drank tea.
Takeda Katsuyori said with a smile: "Lord Takenaka" went to Yuezhong "just to help Li Xiao" when he resisted the Rotten Tiger. This is not your responsibility.
Li Xiao glanced at Shigeji Takenaka, and said with a smile: "Lord Takenaka" is resourceful and unparalleled, "With your help", the pressure on my Li Xiao can be said to have been reduced a lot. ”
Shigeharu Takenaka nodded, and said humbly: "But Lord Mamori" is unparalleled in Hokuriku, "Don't drag the hind legs of the adult." ”
Li Xiao knocked lightly. Tea" said lightly: "Lord Takenaka is too modest. ”
For Takenaka Shigeji, "Li Xiao can be said to be deeply jealous", he originally wanted to recruit him as a staff member, but he refused", and when Li Xiao moved to kill, "Takeda Shingen did another halfway interception" to recruit Takenaka as a direct minister.
So Li Xiao wrote to Tsuri again: "Let him recruit Takenaka."
As a result, I don't know if Takeda Katsuyori was too domineering, "actually won Takenaka's loyalty", "turned down the opportunity to be a direct minister under Shingen", and instead hugged Takeda Katsuyori's big lining.
In the past few years, "with Takenaka's staff officer", Takeda Katsuyori's military strategy and government affairs have "grown a lot", and he has gradually gotten rid of the dependence of Sanada and his son.
Just when Li Xiao thought that his plan was timed", as a result, Takeda Shingen ordered "to send Shigeharu Takenaka to his command as a force", but in fact, it was secretly surveilling.
This made Li Xiao very unhappy.
If it were someone else, "Li Xiao was naturally not afraid", but who was Shigeharu Takenaka, "he and Maba Masafang were in charge of military affairs inside", and the other was in charge of the army outside, and the two joined forces, "It can balance Li Xiao."
At this moment, even Takeda Katsuyori noticed that Li Xiao and Takenaka were in a state of discord between their faces and hearts.
Regarding Takeda Shingen's intention of sending Takenaka to Vietnam, "Takeda Katsuyori also knew it", although he felt that Li Xiaojie could be trusted, "but this is also a technique of checks and balances", and "it can be taken for granted", so there is no objection to his father's decision.
However, Li Xiao's "Takenaka Two" was "both trustworthy henchmen" for Takeda Katsuyori, and he didn't want to see the two of them so stiff.
At the moment, Katsuyori Takeda forked the topic and "turned to some light-hearted topics."
Li Xiao: "Both of them are smart people in Takenaka", and naturally understood Takeda Katsuyori's intentions, "At the moment, he also shows a harmonious Jingjia."
Takeda Katsuyori is a person who has no scheming, "when he saw this", he thought that Li Xiao and Takenaka had "released their previous suspicions" under his own mediation.
At that moment, Shenglai asked Li Xiao, "When have you decided to return to Yuezhong?" ”
Li Xiaoyan said: "Wait until Fei Na opens the mountain festival" It will probably be March before you can set off. ”
Takeda Katsuyori said happily, "Great," so we can stay for a few more days. ”
Li Xiao smiled and said: "Your Highness" is sorry, "I promised my wife and children to visit Mount Fuji", so I want to accompany my family. ”
Although Takeda Katsuyori was a little disappointed when he heard this, he said: "It's okay" You and your wife and children haven't seen each other for five years, "You really should get together", but the war with the Hojo family is imminent, "You and Takenaka are not around", but I am missing two right-hand men. ”
Shigeharu Takenaka smiled: "Your Highness," don't say that, "I can only help a little bit in the next place." ”
Takeda Katsuyori listened to Takenaka's words, "smiled slightly", and turned to look at Li Xuan.
Shigeharu Takenaka also knew that the two had something to say, "Retreat now."
There are only Takeda Shurai and Li Xiao in the house.
The two chatted for a while, and then let go of the topic.
Takeda Katsuyori then talked about the past" and said: "Remember before the Battle of Nakajima" I broke into your military tent in the middle of the night "Do you want me to help me how to seize the family governor?"
Li Xiao nodded and said, "Your Highness" What happened back then, "Do you remember?" Your Majesty has forgotten it. ”
Takeda Katsuyori smiled: "My embarrassment at that time" How could I forget" Li Xiao "I Katsuyori finally did it" In another three years, "I, Takeda Katsuyori, will officially become the governor of the Takeda family" and "take charge of the family", and this journey has been difficult and dangerous many times, "If it weren't for your help", I would not have today. That's why I'm better than you," I always remember. ,
Li Xiao hurriedly said: "Your Highness's words, "I, Li Xiao, am very sincere and afraid", don't mention this matter again. Since then, His Royal Highness has taken charge of the position of my Takeda family, "Under you, only by carefully assisting" all loyalty, and "helping Your Highness sweep the world" is my Li Xiao's greatest wish. ”
History has relied on its own merits. I don't know how many people died in the end" is the best example of the Three Kingdoms.
There is no kindness that can be used for a lifetime, and "making meritorious contributions without living" is the way to establish oneself.
As the saying goes, it's not the trick to be a favor, "just don't let the other person think that you are not a favor."
Anyway, the more humble he is, the more he will take it to heart.
Sure enough, Takeda Katsuyori saw that Li Xiaoshi helped him back then, "without mentioning a word", and "he looked faint and humble" again, and he was very moved at the moment.
Li Xiao knew that Takeda Katsuyori's current situation was "since he took the throne", and it was inevitable that Sanada, "Hoshina", "Kohata, etc., who were originally from the Dragon Family", would have relied on Takeda Katsuyori a lot. In order to get the reward for the risk when you first stood in line
This is also human nature", but Wu Yin is inevitably a little tired.
Even this time, in order to promote the decisive battle of the Hojo family, "Li Xiao also secretly approached Takeda Katsuyori and asked him to use his sister-in-law to support him" to promote the passage of this matter.
However, compared to Sanada, Li Xiao and the others "didn't ask for much", and this time the Hojo war was reasonable, "it is very helpful to the family's grand strategy", not to mention that Takeda Katsuyori also agrees with his own views very much.
At this moment, Takeda Katsuyori showed a trace of worry on his face, and said: "Li Jian, do you think I can really inherit the Takeda family's governor?" ,
Li Xiao said with a smile: "Your Highness", why did he say this, "Isn't this something you've always dreamed of?" Why is it that now that the wish is fulfilled, "the time is coming", but the fear is rising? ,
Takeda Katsuyori smiled bitterly, "Yandao: "Li Xiao", you don't know, "The position of the governor of the Takeda family looks like a beautiful scenery", but after sitting down, it was like a thousand pounds of heavy burden. The eyes of all the retainers are fixed on you, and they "do not consciously compare you with your father." It is natural to do well, and if you don't do well, you will get an evaluation that is not as good as your father. ,
Speaking of this, Takeda Katsuyori sighed and said, "I know that my father is a great man in the world," so even though I have achieved too many merits, "it is inevitable that I will be criticized by others" under his light, and "I don't seem to pay much attention to them" when they act according to my father's orders, which is also my distress. "I don't dare, Sanada" Takenaka said, "I'm afraid that they will think I'm weak," but in fact, I've long been troubled in my heart, "I hope you can solve my doubts today." ,
Li Xiao listened to Takeda Katsuyori say this, "I also understand his mentality here."
Li Xiaoyan said: "Your Highness" Please forgive me for saying bluntly, "The reason for your troubles is to put yourself in the wrong position. I, Li Wrist, will never tell you that I am not inferior to the lord because of comforting Your Highness", this is just a sympathy, "Your Highness does not need it at all." And the real answer must be found by His Highness himself," but I asked His Highness, "Even if you are not as good as the lord," are you not going to take charge of my Takeda family? ,
"Just as His Highness also felt that he was inferior to the Shirt Huihu" but when he came to challenge you, "Your Highness is afraid to fight" If so, there will be no Baigen Mountain" rock rejection city. Your Highness, don't forget that you have twice repelled the Upper Immortal Qianxin: "This is something that the lord has not been able to do in the five battles of Nakajima. You've proven yourself. ,
Takeda Shenglai listened to Li Xiaozhi's words, "his eyes lit up" and said: "Li Xuan, what you said is good. ,
As for the "horse farm" in the mountain county, several of them "are all veterans of the family for a long time", and have been fighting with the lord for many years, "it is true that their royal highness is lacking in respect", but when the lord "is loyal to the Takeda family", it is impossible to question "the time of the family", they are also the ministers of the pillars, "if these adults are lost", the foundation of the family will collapse. His Highness must not ignore this and neglect and alienate them "because of their attitude". ,
"What's more, His Highness now has his own team," such as Lord Shinho in the family, Lord Okuma Ashide, and Lord Nobuta-chan Kohata, "They are all His Highness's retainers who support His Highness when he is not on the throne", His Highness can reuse them, "Don't chill their hearts." No matter how bad it is, there are also me, "Sanada" and "Baoke" three people support His Highness, "never worry about the Yama County" horse farm, and they overpower His Highness. ,,
Takeda Katsuyori listened to Li Xiao's words, "he couldn't help nodding his head" and his confidence was greatly boosted, but then he frowned and said: "Li Xiao" You said that at the same time, you should reuse Sanada's "Baoke them", and you can't neglect the "old ministers of the horse farm" in Shanxian County, but if there is a dispute between the two sides, how should I deal with it, "it is not good to help either side." ,
Li Xiao nodded, and said: "Your Highness thinks very much, "Protecting His Royal Highness's retainers will chill the hearts of the old ministers", and the "Lord Racecourse" of the Partial Gang County still thinks that His Royal Highness is "bullying" and easy to back down in order to settle the matter. However, His Highness should not be duplicitous" to curry favor with both sides. ,
"Therefore, His Highness must make his own decision." This is not easy to say, "His Royal Highness needs to have the strength of the sovereign", and at the same time, it is necessary to let all the retainers understand their own principles and the bottom line. A line was drawn in the hearts of the retainers. No matter who "is", if they "do something that touches the line", they will be dealt with. When dealing with things, we must be impartial and "deal with them fairly", and then under the strict authority, "you might as well be a little more lenient" to win the hearts of your retainers. ,
And in this regard, the "Lord Lord" is one of the experts, "Your Highness can ask him for advice." ,
Takeda Katsuyori listened to Li Xiao's words and "nodded", which was also deeply inspiring.
Li Xiao saw that Takeda Katsuyori was stunned and slightly realized, "knowing that his suggestions have played a role", what to do next, "It's up to Takeda Katsuyori himself."
Li Xiao did all this, "even if he hoped that Wu Yin would be victorious, and he would establish the prestige of his own lordship," and then suppress the two camps of the old retainers and the new retainers.
This is not easy to do", but Li Xiao is convinced that "under his many years of fighting", Takeda Katsuyori has the right time, place and people, "he will definitely do better than the long battle in history." (To be continued.) )
