Chapter 539: Unfair Rewards and Punishments
The Hojo clan still looked angry, pacing around the house with a sword in his hand, but he was the head of the family after all, and then this angry feeling was contained, and he thought about the pros and cons of breaking the alliance with Takeda
As the wind demon Kotaro entered, his burly body knelt on the ground
Hojo Clan Masaa looked at the other party's back and asked, "How have you done in recent years to order your Wind Demon Shinobi to step up spying on the information of the Takeda family?"
Wind Demon Kotaro said in a deep voice: It has been very effective to return to the lord, and the intelligence network of this family has infiltrated Kai Shinano......
Just what
Wind Demon Kotaro said: For the infiltration of Echichu Hida, it has always been unfavorable, and the power of my wife ninja is strong, and the infiltration of the Hida Echichu Legion has always been limited, but a few unimportant chess pieces have been deployed
I heard that the last time Tokugawa Ieyasu sent Hattori Hanzo to assassinate Li Xiao, the result was defeated, and the Tokugawa family ninja Shinano has been chased and killed by hundreds of my wife ninja for three days and three nights, and only Hattori Hanzo was spared, but he was also seriously injured
After listening to this, the Hojo clan nodded with a pale face and said: I know you have done your best, so how about spying on the information of the Takeda family now
Wind Demon Kotaro said with a sigh: I am receiving an important military situation and preparing to report to the lord
Tokugawa, the lord Mikawa no Tokugawa, had reached an alliance with Takeda, and Tokugawa Ieyasu ordered his sister-in-law Nobuyasu to marry Matsuhime, while Tokugawa Ieyasu sent his brother Tokugawa Iemoto and his five-year-old second son to the Kusakikan as hostages
Hojo Clan's face turned pale and shouted: What Takeda Tokugawa is a mortal enemy, how can it be possible to reach an alliance
I heard that the Takeda family had returned all the land that had been encroached upon over the years to the Tokugawa family, and the two sides reached an agreement
Itabe Okae Yukisai said in a green voice: If this is the case, Takeda Chaoyue was before going out to Echigo
When the Hojo clan heard this, he was stunned and said: Takeda Chaoyue is so bold that he can make this decision, his move will inevitably be vigorously opposed by the retainers of the Mikawa Yuanjiang Takeda family, no, this annexation of Echigo, he can use the Echigo land to compensate these wealthy clans and let them control the newly occupied land of Echigo for him, this person is really calculating
Takeda Nobuyoshi ceded less than 100,000 koku to the Tokugawa family in exchange for nearly 600,000 koku for the Echigo-Uesugi family, which is what the Hojo clan said
Itabe Okae Yukisai said tetsuchi: If this is the case, Takeda Chaoyue reached an agreement with the Tokugawa family before leaving Echigo, and it was obviously premeditated for this treachery
After the Hojo clan finished speaking, the Daido Temple Masato said in a complicated manner: Since the lord is like this, it is impossible for the family to join the Tokugawa family to march to the Takeda family, and there is no need to think of another way
When the Hojo clan was groaning, a samurai hurriedly came to the door and said: The lord Ueno Izu has an important military report
Hojo Clan's expression changed and he shouted: Come in immediately
The samurai entered the country, bowed his head and reported to the Hojo clan: The lord received a report from the lord of Ueno, Shinta, Kanayama Castle, and the lord of Yura Nari to report that the Takeda family, the Ueno legion, Sanada Masashi, gathered 10,000 troops, approached the Musashi Ueno border, and had the intention of attacking his own family, and Ryoseiji came to the rescue of the lord
In addition, His Royal Highness the lord of Nirayama Castle in Izu reported that the Suruga Legion of the Takeda family had assembled a large force on the border of Suruga in Izu, and it was said that the seal of the Tokugawa general, Honda Tadashikatsu, Sakakihara Yasumasa, was seen in the Suruga Legion
Hearing the news that Tokugawa and Takeda had actually formed an alliance, everyone in the Hojo family was silent at the moment
No matter how loyal Tokugawa was to Takeda, the power of Tokugawa and the Suruga Army of the Takeda Army was the largest territory of the Imagawa family when Tokaido's first bow took Imagawa Yoshimoto when he was alive
Such a force should not be underestimated
If the Tokugawa family's combat strength is 10,000 soldiers, then the gap between the enemy and the back of the hand will cause the Takeda army to add 20,000 soldiers and horses
In addition, after the capture of Echigo's alliance with Tokugawa, the Takeda family's strong enemy in the direction of Hokuriku and Tokaido has been eliminated
It is possible to concentrate forces to the east to contend with the Hojo family...,
Wind Demon Kotaro said to the Hojo clan: The lord asks for forgiveness for the crime of dereliction of duty The Takeda family has long had the intention of breaking with the family, but I didn't expect to learn the news today
The Hojo clan said silently for a while: I didn't expect you to blame you
Speaking of this, the Hojo clan shogun inserted the knife and turned around and said: The loss of Echigo this time lies in my responsibility, Sato has been destroyed, Satake Yuki has been subdued, and my Hojo family has shown signs of unifying the Kanto region, and the Takeda family is worried about the Kamiroku family, so they took the lead in breaking the alliance one step ahead of time to prevent the family from annexing Echigo, and the power will become bigger
It's really my responsibility to lose the opportunity, and after Takeda Chaoyue recognized the situation, he made a decision in advance to grasp the overall situation, and I was not as good as it
Hojo Clan sighed
And at the moment on the side of Kasuga Mountain Castle
Takeda Nobuyhiro stood up and said in a deep voice to the retainers of the Takeda family present: Echigo must be calmed down as soon as possible, so extraordinary measures cannot be appeased
The Uesugi family, Echigo, and the guardian of the descendants of the Nagao family, must be exterminated, and no one is left, as for the Kamijo family, the Depu family, the Yamamoto temple family, the Hachijo family and other branches must also be exterminated, and as for the other wealthy families, they must be held hostage, and the family must promise to block it, otherwise they will all be destroyed
Takeda Shinshihiro's voice was murderous
Li Xiao sat aside, thinking that in the previous battle of the Kurobe River, he had wiped out more than half of the 20,000 Echigo local wealthy forces, and this time the Imperial Pavilion Rebellion supported the Echigo nationals on both sides of Kamishi, Jingkatsu, and Uesugi Jinghu, and the wealthy forces were killed by Takeda Nobuyo
Echigo's local forces have been hit hard
Now Takeda Nobu Shige's goal is very clear, that is, to cut off the Kanto Governor, Uesugi Yanliu, and the original guardian of the Nagao family, so that the Takeda family can rightfully become the owner, Echigo can be pacified, and it doesn't take much effort
Deura Morikiyo Takasaka Kannai obeyed orders
Two ninja dressed men knelt in front of Nobuyori Takeda
Deura Morikiyo is the upper shinobi of the Toherin people, while Takasaka Kannai is the upper shinobi of the Takeda family
Takeda Nobuhiro said to them: "The task of chasing down the Uesugi family will be handed over to you ninjas to deal with me, and I will not leave any of them
oh
Deura Morikiyo and Takasaka Kannai both agreed loudly and strode down
Li Xiao shook his head slightly invisibly, revealing a look of sadness
It didn't take long for the two of them to go down, and suddenly a woman's shrill voice suddenly came from the other end of the Kasuga Mountain Castle Palace, where everyone was located
The retainers were moved in their hearts, knowing that the Takeda family had begun to slaughter the city
Kasuga Yamajo Castle and the vicinity of the Imperial Pavilion around the castle town were all targets for killing
Li Xiao could foresee that at this moment, there was already a sea of corpses and blood under the Spring Mountain City
Thinking of this, Li Xiao couldn't help but get up and said: Chaoyue Gong is already okay, and there is no need to kill again
Seeing Li Xiao's words, Takeda Nobuya smiled and said: Major General Konove, your merits in this battle are very great, and you will definitely have a reward after conquering Echigo
Li Xiao thought for a while, and immediately understood what Takeda Xinfan meant: I don't care about the reward, I just hope that Chaoyue Gong can let the people go
Major General Konoe is truly a woman's kindness
As soon as Li Xiaoyan finished speaking, someone on the side interjected
Li Xiaoxin said, his current status, there are not many people who dare to speak out like this
When Li Xiao turned his head, he saw that it was Takasaka Masanobu, the general of the North Shinano Army, who was against him
Takasaka Masashi said: I heard that Major General Konoe killed the name of the Kango Tianshan family when he was pacified, and the name of the mountain family was cut off, and the blood flowed like a river, why is his heart soft to this day
Li Xiaoyan said: It's good that Lord Takasaka's Tian Shan family was destroyed for me, but I never killed people indiscriminately
Speaking of this, Li Xiao looked at Takeda Shinfan
Takeda Nobuyoshi groaned and said angrily: "Major General Konoe is so disappointing to me, so I will listen to your words, I will not slaughter the people, but narrow the scope to Kasuga Mountain Castle, but Your Excellency's strategy Echigo reward is gone
Li Xiao heard Takeda Shinfan say this, but he secretly sneered in his heart, but said loudly on his face: Thank you so much, Chaoyue Gong
Li Xiao understood that in fact, Takeda Nobuyoshi didn't want to reward himself at all, so he deliberately folded it when he proposed conditions...,
Li Xiao can understand Takeda Shinfan's position, the Hida Etsuchu Army has a power of 1.1 million stones, and the Takeda family is also 1.1 million stones, and Li Xiao, as a powerful minister, has a big tail and can't get rid of it
This time the attack Echigo Ueno 600,000 Shi Takeda Nobushiro could not give the slightest bit to Li Xiao to strengthen his power no matter what
Therefore, even if Li Xiao didn't mention that condition just now, Takeda Shinfan would still find an excuse to rely on, so Li Xiao might as well take the initiative to give him a handle to change his name
However, understanding is understanding, and the anger in Li Xiao's heart is difficult to eliminate
Now Li Xiao is cold to Takeda Shinfan
In game terms, Li Xiao's loyalty to the Takeda family has dropped significantly
Takasaka Masanobu said at this time: The Date family of the Tsuki Gong also invaded Echigo, and it seems that he wants to help the Uesugi Keihu side, and the current situation seems to be in conflict with the Date family
Takeda Nobuhiro said with a smile: The Date family has coveted the land of the Uesugi family for a long time, this place was originally the power of the Ashina family, and we can send an envoy to the Date family, promising to share the land of the Uesugi family with him equally, he will take the land of the Uesugi family, and I will take Echigo
Hearing this, all the generals nodded and said: Chaoyue Gong is really a high opinion that the Date family will definitely agree to the conditions of this family
Takeda Nobuhiro said with a smile: As long as the Date family annexes Mutsu, you will inevitably turn against the Hojo family, so you will get on the ship of my Takeda family (to be continued, if you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation)
