September 5th.

The Takeda family began to attack Iga Province from all directions,

Ise Jiguchi, led by Takeda Nobushihiro, led the 20,000 troops of the directly subordinate corps, Zhe Zhiguchi, by Takeda Nobuyo, Mochizuki Nobunaga and other Shikoku generals, 20,000 troops, Tamakiguchi by Mochizuki Nobunaga, Okuma Asahide, Takasaka Masanobu, 20,000 troops, Kasamaguchi by Tokugawa Ieyasu, Satake Yoshishige led by the 20,000 troops.

Hatsuse Pass was entered by 20,000 troops of Hara Masain, Baba Masabo, and Hoshina Masachi, and the Tarao Pass was joined by the rest of the daimyo coalition forces.

As for Kyogoku Takayoshi, Hosokawa Fujitaka and other generals continued to surround Koga.

Takeda Nobuyoshi ordered that wherever the army passed, not a single inch of grass would grow, and no people or animals would be left.

In order to fight against the Takeda family's army, Fujibayashi Nagato Mamoru in the Iga Mikami Shinobi, Hyaki Tanba, and Kashiwabara Castle Lord Tatsuno Yoshimasa all the people of Iga were soldiers to fight against the Takeda family's attack.

The Iga ninja and the people of the Possession Village fought against the invading army by means of ambushes, night attacks, and poisoning.

Such a tactic of all the people being soldiers caused a lot of casualties among the various armies of Takeda for a while, and the Takeda army also let go of its means and resolutely carried out Takeda Shinshi's orders, leaving no grass or tree behind.

The main force of Zhezhiguchi, led by Takeda Nobuyoshi and Mochizuki Nobunaga, conquered Hizi Mountain Castle after many days of fierce fighting.

The rest of the troops also burned all the way and attacked the castle under Kashiwahara Castle.

Kashiwahara Castle is home to more than 5,000 Iga ninja who have fled from all over the world.

Under the leadership of the lord of the city, Tatsuno Yoshimasa, he fought a fierce battle with the fifty or sixty thousand Takeda families outside the city.

The Takeda Army attacked the city during the day, and the ninja attacked at night. The fierce battle lasted for five days, and many parts of the Takeda army were attacked by ninjas and routed.

After that, Iga Oshida Castle was captured by the Takeda Army general Maba Masabo.

Nobunaga Mochizuki slaughtered more than 2,000 people in the nearby villages.

Takeda Nobuyoshi led the main force to Kashiwahara Castle. There is no suspense in the battle.

Tatsuno Yoshimasa led the remaining ninjas to launch a decisive assault at night in the direction of Takeda Nobuyoshige's main camp, breaking through several lines of defense of the Takeda army in one company.

In the end, there were less than 100 Takeda Nobu Shige Banner Seals, Tatsuno Yoshimasa was exhausted, and all the Iga ninjas died here.

And Iga Mikami Shinobu is in the middle. Baidi Tanba led the white family Kashiwahara Castle to outnumber.

According to legend, Hyakuchi Tanba himself killed more than 500 enemy soldiers with his peerless ninjutsu.

The other Kamito Nagato Mamoru is nowhere to be found, and legend has it that one of them broke out of the siege and fled.

The last Hattori family is the Tokugawa family. And the net is open.

Tokugawa Ieyasu secretly violated the order of Takeda Nobuyoshige, and took advantage of this Iga expedition to order Hattori Hanzo to come forward and take many Iga ninjas as subordinates to strengthen his own power.

After that, Iga was destroyed. The Koga ninjas were terrified and surrendered to Takeda Shinshige.

Takeda Nobuyoshi agreed, and introduced him as the royal ninja of the Takeda family.

This Tensho Iga Rebellion finally brought Takeda Nobuyoshi's prestige to its peak, and the world was afraid of it for a while.

People of the world. Everyone knows that the Takeda family has the location of Takeda Chaoyue, but they don't know Takeda Shinkatsu.

Everyone in the world knows that the shogunate has the location of Takeda Chaoyue. And I don't know Ashikaga Yoshiaki.

All of a sudden, Takeda Shin was a powerful man, and there were rumors of usurping the throne, and the secret spread in the market.

As soon as the news appeared, it was blocked by the shogunate, but it was still inquired about by many people with a heart.

At this moment in Shikoku Saoka Toeshiro. Kyushu Satsuma Inner Castle, the two thought they would miss the battle of Sekigahara. And the man who lost the opportunity to dominate the world. …,

Hearing the news, I was excited and ambitious again.

In Weishan City, Li Xiao was in the castle tower, looking up at the full moon in the sky, and said to himself: "Takeda Chaoyue is like the full moon at this moment, and it is not far from the day when the moon is full and the moon is eclipsed. ”

Speaking of this, Li Xiao paced back and forth, and said again: "However, Takeda Chaoyue has always been cautious in handling things, which makes it difficult to find the opportunity for his self-chaos. ”

Li Xiao fell into deep thought at the moment.

Kyoto, Honnoji Temple.

Beyond the temple, there is already a snow-covered scene.

The black chess pieces landed on the cold chessboard with a clear crisp sound.

Sitting in the game, the two are Takeda Nobukatsu, the governor of the Takeda family, and Katsushi, the retainer of the Traces.

Takeda Nobukatsu is 16 years old this year, and as he grows older, he has a very serious bearing and is not angry and arrogant.

Since entering Kyoto, many ministers and celebrities have come to see Takeda Nobukatsu himself.

After seeing it, they all had a very good impression of this young man, and claimed that the Takeda family would complete the last four kingdoms and the unification of Kyushu in the hands of this person, and finally dominate the whole world.

Under such comments, the retainers within the Takeda family all have high hopes for this young family governor.

At present, there is already a group of people gathered under the command of Takeda Nobukatsu, thinking that they are seeking a way out in the future, and several generations of old ministers of the Takeda family, Katsushi Katsushi, is one of them.

Sitting opposite Takeda Nobukatsu, Katsushi Shibe raised his chess and pondered, but his political speculation has not been very accurate in fact.

Needless to say, Takeda Yoshinobu, who was the assistant back then, later transferred to Takeda Katsuyori, but he had a grudge with Li Xiao, the first trusted general under Katsuyori, and his future was ruined.

And after Takeda Nobuyoshi took power, he also did not like this retainer with a backbone in the back of his head, and excluded him from the power center of the Takeda family.

At this age, he is still a general of the Takeda family.

This time, the Takeda family succeeded in Shangluo and divided the world.

Katsushi saw that many of the retainers of the Takeda family who were inferior to themselves were divided, but he was sent to the vicinity of Kyoto and became one of the members of the imperial commissioner of the family, and he did not get the knowledge of a stone.

Of course, he was unhappy with this, and he knew that if it was to revive the Trace Family, the time to grasp it was in front of him.

Of course, as a villain, Katsushi Jibe will never forget to sow discord at any time.

While playing against Takeda Nobukatsu, Katsuki said: "Lord Mikan, after the success of the Chaoyue Gong's expedition to Iga this time, according to what his subordinates have seen, he will use this great victory to gain more prestige, and in the future, among the seven heads of the three positions of the shogunate, I am afraid that it will be the world of the Chaoyue Gong alone." ”

"Why?" Nobukatsu Takeda asked calmly.

Katsuzi put the chess pieces in the chess box and said slowly: "It's very simple, among the three management leaders, in addition to the main family, the power of the Hojo family lies in the Kanto region, and the impact on the center is minimal, so it can be ignored. ”

"And the Maori family, in recent years, Chaoyue Gong has attracted the two rivers of the separated family, and treated the Maori family lightly, and the Maori family has gradually had a tendency to divide into three, so whether it is His Royal Highness Maori, or Kobayakawa, His Royal Highness Yoshikawa is the face of Chaoyue Gong."

Takeda Nobukatsu listened to the analysis of the Department of Traces, and nodded.

He's talking about the recent situation, and he's telling the truth.

"In addition to the three leaders, the Li family in the four positions has the power to compete with Chaoyue Gong. It's a pity that the Yagata Gong retired early, and His Royal Highness, the enthroned Guards General, although he is wise and wise, his qualifications are too shallow, and if he wants to exert influence on the court, he is far inferior to the Chaoyue Gong. ”…,

"As for the other four positions, as well as Kyogoku and Hosokawa, they will not be placed in the eyes of Chaoyue Gong. Therefore, His Majesty said that the Duke of Chaoyue relied on the great merit of this Iga expedition and monopolized the power to settle down. ”

Takeda Nobukatsu nodded when he heard this, and said: "At the beginning, my father arranged for the five elders of the retainers to be the ministers who took care of their lives. It is to curb the monopoly of power among the retainers, but now that my family has seized the world, the power is stronger than before, but it is not easy for me to speak. ”

"If all this is if the Yakatagong does not retreat, he can still fight against the Chaoyue Duke in the court, and now ......, Lord Jibu, what do you say I should do next?"

Hearing what Takeda Nobukatsu said, he was overjoyed at the moment, what he wanted was Takeda Nobukatsu's words, and he could be reused for this.

At present, Katsuji said: "In the current situation, when no one in the world can help the Lord of the Imperial Pavilion, the Lord of the Imperial Pavilion must be self-reliant and seek his own power. ”

"Self-inflicted power! How? Nobukatsu Takeda asked.

Katsuzi thought for a moment, looked around left and right, and said in a low voice at the moment: "Lord Mikan, there are nearly a hundred ninjas of the Iga Hakuji family, all of whom are elites, and they have escaped the heavy pursuit of the Tsukiko this time. Now that they're asking me to come forward, if they want to secretly come out of the Imperial Palace, I don't know how? ”

Takeda Nobukatsu said in surprise: "How can this be, in case the Nest Moon Gong knows." ”

Katsushi Shibe said, "No, Lord Gokan, you can let them change their identities and secretly serve them. Lord Gokan, these ninjas have fought out of the encirclement of more than 100,000 troops, all of which are enough to block ten elites with one, if we don't recruit for others, wouldn't it be a pity. ”

"And with this power by your side, if the Chaoyue Duke is unpredictable in the future, he can also be prepared for the unexpected."

After hearing the words of Takeda Nobukatsu, he thought for a while and said, "Yes, but this matter must be kept secret, and no outsiders must know about it." ”

After hearing this, he said with great joy: "Please rest assured. ”

Just in the Takeda Nobukatsu Honnoji Temple, it was only half an hour to agree to this.

Among the mansions in Kyoto.

A person dressed as a ninja came to Nobunaga Mochizuki and said, "Your Highness, I just got the news that the ninja of the Shirachi family has entered the Honnoji Temple. ”

"What? Say it again. ”

"Oh!"

"Back to Your Highness, I heard that it was Lord Tracebe who introduced these ninjas to Lord Gokan."

Hum!

Nobunaga Mochizuki flicked his sleeves, but unexpectedly, the look on his face was not anger, but a look of control of everything.

"Well done! Sure enough, it did a great job for me. ”

The sound of cold laughter echoed in the room.

Nobunaga Mochizuki shook off his robe and said, "Prepare your horse immediately, I'm going to my brother's mansion." ”
