In the Sengoku period, when it comes to the peak of swordsmanship, we have to talk about three people, they are Tsukahara Bu Ling, Kamiizumi Nobutsuna, and Miyamoto Musashi.

Later generations often talked about the idea of Qin Qiong in the public war, and discussed who was the first in the world in the Warring States. However, Tsukahara Bu Ling was nineteen years older than Kamiizumi Nobutsuna, and Kamiizumi Nobutsuna was seventy-six years older than Miyamoto Musashi. In the era of Tsukahara Butachi, in the early middle and early Warring States period, Kamiizumi Nobutsuna became famous in the Azuchi-Momoyama period, and Miyamoto Musashi did not appear until the end of the Warring States period, near the beginning of the Edo period.

It is said that Miyamoto Musashi has a kind of melancholy in his life that I was born and I am not born, and I am old, and I hate the regret of not being able to fight with the two contemporaries in front of me. And the challenge that Li Xiao is facing now is Shioka Kazuyu, one of Tsukahara Buling's proud disciples.

Shioka Kazuha came from the famous Toki clan, and since he was a child, he first followed his father Shioka Tsuneyoshi to learn Katori Shinto-ryu, and after his family was destroyed, he went into exile everywhere, and then studied under Tsukahara Bu Tatsu, and learned Kashima Shindangryu. Now Shioka Kazuha is twenty-nine years old, and he is in the best physical condition of his life, and many years of competition with famous masters from all over the world have made him not lack practical experience, and his swordsmanship has been passed on by Tsukahara Bu Ling.

Although he hasn't done it at the moment, he has fused the swordsmanship of Katori Shinto-ryu and Kashima Shindang-ryu to create a plume, but he is not far from the peak of his swordsmanship.

Li Xiao understood that Baoke Zhengjun had good intentions, and wanted to make himself understand what kind of opponent he was facing, and gave up the competition with Shigang Yiyu. But understand clearly, this does not mean that he will retreat, joking to this book, Li Xiao represents the Ming Kingdom, if he retreats, how will others perceive it.

Baoke Zhengjun saw that he couldn't dispel it, and Li Xiao insisted on the idea of martial arts, and sighed.

"Lord Li Xiao, if you really want to compete with Shigang Kazuyu, you must really understand Kashima Shindangliu, I know that there is someone who can help you."

"Who is it?" Li Xiao hurriedly asked.

"Yamamoto-sama."

Kansuke Yamamoto? No way.

"Yes, back then, the lord hired Tsukahara Bu Ling to come to my Takeda family to teach the swordsmanship of the generals, and the most outstanding of them was none other than Yamamoto Kansuke-sama. Tsukahara also praised Yamamoto-sama, saying that if it weren't for his sloping feet, his swordsmanship would be the best in the Takeda family. If he is willing to teach you the secrets of Kashima Shindangryu, your chances of winning a duel with Shioka Ichiha will be greatly increased. ”

Li Xiao suddenly had a feeling of being thundered, this handicapped Comrade Yamamoto Kansuke was actually the first in the swordsmanship Takeda family. I really didn't see this.,It's really a hidden old fox.,But when he played against Shioka Kazuha.,Shioka Kazuha didn't also point out that Yamamoto Kansuke had learned Kashima Shindangyu's swordsmanship.。

Hearing what Masatoshi Hoshina said, Li Xiao thought to himself, it seems that he has to find some way to deceive Kashima Shindangliu's secret technique from Kansuke Yamamoto.

The next time, Li Xiao rode back to Gaoyuan City with Baoke Zhengcheng and Baoke Changyue brothers.

When Li Xiao arrived in the city, he saw a group of cavalry, these horseback warriors were wearing armor, and the pattern of the flag behind them was actually painted with copper coins similar to Yongle Tongbao, arranged in two rows, three on the top and bottom, a total of six.

Liulian Qian family crest, Li Xiao naturally knows this famous family crest in the Warring States Period, in the late Warring States period, the prestige of Liulian Qian's family crest, even replaced the family crest of the extinct master Takeda Ling. It is conceivable that the cavalry team in front of them with six cents on their backs will appear under Osaka Castle fifty-four years later, and the ferocious assault will collapse the headquarters of Tokugawa Ieyasu's 15,000 men, and he himself will have to lose Empress Ma Yinchang and retreat.

"Is the Sanada family here?" Li Xiao found a samurai to inquire.

"Yes, Master Shi, the person who came is the third man of Kotaka, the head of the Sanada family, and in addition to this, there are also the lord of Kozhujo City and the head of the Mochizuki family."

"Understood."

"Hey." The samurai saluted Li Xiao again and stepped back.

Okay, okay, Li Xiao muttered silently, Sanada Yukitaka's three boys are not Sanada Masayuki, who changed hands four times in six months after the destruction of the Takeda family, which fully demonstrated the excellent quality of the wall grass, and then was called the person of Taiko Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

Here I have to admit that although the old man Taige has a low level of education, he is not weak in terms of language expression skills. As for whether Sanada Masayuki is really a repeater, there is no conclusive conclusion, but anyone who can be called a hero is a person with a complex surname, and it is not easy to speculate.

In addition to seeing the family crest of the six coins, Li Xiao also had a samurai printed with the family crest of the Jiuyaoba pattern, which was the family crest of the Shinano Mochizuki family. The Mochizuki family, like the Suwa family, was originally a local wealthy family in Shinano, but later surrendered in the invasion of Takeda Shingen, and like the Suwa family, their current governor is also a successor of the Takeda family.

At this time, the current governor of the Mochizuki family is none other than Nobunaga Mochizuki, the third son of Takeda Nobushi, and his maternal line is also from the side of the Mochizuki family, because of him, the Mochizuki family has also been accepted into the Takeda family.

As for the lord of Kojujo City, it must be Takeda Nobutoyo. After the Battle of Kawanakajima, Takeda Nobuhiro became a monk and lived in seclusion and never asked about the world again, so the eldest son Takeda Nobuhiro inherited the position of family governor, and the original fief of Nobuhiro Komojo was naturally inherited by Nobutoyo.

Now Takeda Nobutoyo and Mochizuki Nobunaga have all been upgraded to the elders of the Takeda family. These two little boys who were chatting with themselves in front of the saddle and behind the horse during the battle on Kawanaka Island are now old after a month.

Li Xiao and the Hoshina brothers rode all the way to Honmaru, and after entering the castle tower, Li Xiao saw Takeda Katsuyori cross-legged, sitting on the main seat with his hands on his knees, and the two brothers Takeda Nobutoyo and Mochizuki Nobunaga chatted with laughter, and there was no appearance of the old man of the castle lord at all. And sitting under Nobunaga Mochizuki is a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy who has just dressed in Yuanfu.

Although the other party was young, he looked like a teenager everywhere, sitting upright, listening quietly to Takeda Katsuyori and their chat, and then said nothing. When he heard the sound of Li Xiao and them taking off their shoes and walking into the hall, he turned his head to look.

Li Xiao looked at him together, thinking that this little Zhengtai was Sanada Masayuki, and he couldn't see the appearance of the old fox at such a young age. Li Xiao immediately gave Sanada Masayuki a bright smile, and then turned his head and walked straight into the hall.

Takeda Nobutoshi and Mochizuki Nobunaga saw Li Xiao coming, stood up together, and said, "Mr. Li Xiao." ”

How to say that Li Xiao had also taught them Chinese before, so they had always called him so respectfully. Li Xiao laughed, walked up to them, patted them on the shoulder and said, "Well, yes, yes, you have made progress in Chinese?" ”

Takeda Nobutoyo replied with a smile: "I have been studying, and my husband used to tell us from time to time that he would learn from time to time, and he would learn new truths from the past, so he didn't dare to slack off." ”

Compared with the relationship between the two brothers and Li Xiao, Takeda Nobuhiro and Li Xiao are like teachers and friends, often joking or something, while Mochizuki Nobunaga is much more respectful and restrained.

And Sanada Masayuki, who was sitting on the side, was stunned at the moment, where had he met such a retainer, when he saw the city lord bowing and bowing, when he saw the old man, he directly stepped forward and hooked his shoulders and called him a brother. And the Baoke brothers, who followed Li Xiao, had already knelt down in front of Takeda Katsuyori.

Sanada Masayuki looked left and right, and stared at Li Xiao again, looking like his young heart had been hit.

Who the hell is this? Sanada asked from the bottom of his heart.
