Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 133: Shingen Ambition

Iwagaki Castle Tower.

   This castle tower was built by the Saito family. Although it is not comparable to the main hall of the Uzakikan, it still has no problem accommodating the officials of the Takeda family. It just looks slightly crowded.

   Now the generals of the Takeda clan gathered together, Takeda Shingen was in the main seat, and two small surnames were kneeling behind him, one holding his Tachi, and the other holding the Suwa Dharma headband.

   To the left of Takeda Shingen, there are more than twenty retainers such as Takeda Nobuya, Baba Nobubo, Takasaka Masanobu, Naito Masanobu, Oyamada Nobushige, Anyama Nobukun, etc.

   Takeda Shinren, as a pen in the retainer regiment, is located at Takeda Shingen, which is the uppermost position on the left.

   On the right is Takeda Katsura, and his retainers.

   Of course, this is a way for Takeda Shingen to exhort Takeda Katsuyori's retainers. Regardless of fame, status, or official position, Takeda's retainers and Takeda Shingen's retainers on the left side are far from each other. However, because of their outstanding performance in the battle of Iwagaki Castle, Shingen Takeda was specially arranged here, alongside his direct vassal group.

Takeda Katsurai naturally sits at the top of the right side, and Takeda Katsurai’s second place is Li Xiao. After the death of Yamamoto Kansuke and Yasaki Masatoshi, Li Xiao has become a well-deserved member of Takeda Katsurai’s clan. written.

   Facing the imposing pressure on the momentum of the two dozen famous Takeda generals in front of him, Daxiong Chaoxiu was a little better, but Masao Sanada and generals such as Masao Baba couldn't stand it, and it was somewhat unnatural. Others such as the brothers Hoko, Masatada Atobe, Chiku Akiyama, Takeuchi and Gozaemon, Sosada Abe, etc., not to mention, they looked restless.

   As a member of the transcendence, Li Xiao will naturally not lose the face of modern people. He does not have too many concepts of respect and inferiority of this era in his mind. Li Xiao put on the appearance of having seen a big scene, calmly.

   After seeing all the generals, Takeda Shingen first praised Takeda Katsuyori and others for their achievements in attacking Agatsuma Prefecture in this battle.

   Takeda Nobuyasu first commented: "Master, this is the best performance. If it weren't for his hard work, our army's strategy of Ueno in the past two years would have been fruitless."

   The generals of the Takeda family nodded, and the generals were deeply impressed by Takeda's outstanding performance in this battle. This point is unquestionable. With his performance today, in the Takeda family, Takeda Katsuyori's good fighting skills are second to none, and even Takeda Nobuyao is under him.

   Takeda Shingen nodded and said: "Yes, Taro's performance really disappointed me, but Shiro gave me too many surprises, rare, rare."

   Compared with Takeda Yoshinobu's defeat at Kuragano Castle, he was defeated by Uesugi Kenshin. Takeda Katsuyori's performance has fully proved which of the two is superior and the other is inferior.

At this time, Shibu Xinqiu said: "The Lord, His Highness Yixin, is good at internal affairs, but not good at military strategy. And His Highness Shenglai can fight for my Takeda family. These two brothers. It's really an honor for my Takeda family to be inside and outside."

   After listening to Nobuaki's speech, Li Xiao immediately cursed in his heart: You old **** said so well, and the horse is inside and outside. Isn't this clearly shirking responsibility for Takeda Yoshinobu's failure? His words alluded that Takeda Katsuyori was only a general talent, and his ability was not enough to control the country, balance their respective forces, and have shortcomings in internal affairs. This is not as good as Takeda Yoshinobu.

   Atobe Nobuaki's words, it is not that there is no market. As soon as he exits, two-thirds of the Takeda family will agree. These people are all generals of the Takeda family, and their opinions are very important.

   It can be seen that the popularity of Takeda Yoshinobu in the vassal group is still very high. Takeda Katsuyoshi and Li Xiao glanced at each other quietly, and they were both upset with each other. However, Li Xiao noticed that Machang Xinfang looked stiff at this moment, but did not say a word. As always, he was on Takeda Yoshinobu's side.

   At this time, Shingen Takeda said: "If you have merit, you must be rewarded, and if you have done it, you must be punished, otherwise it will not be enough for Ming Tsunki."

   All the retainers gave a loud voice, expressing their obedience.

   Takeda Shingen glanced at Takeda Katsuyai, and then said, "Katsurai, but before I can reward you, I must ask you for someone."

   Takeda Katsurai was taken aback.

   Then Takeda Shingen looked at Li Xiao and said: "Li Xiao, you have been with Shenglai for a year and assisted Shenglai Yougong. Everyone has seen his growth. I am deeply grateful to Shingen."

   Li Xiao didn't expect Takeda Shingen to say this, and quickly said: "All these are better than the achievements of your Royal Highness's own efforts, and the ministers dare not take credit."

Shingen Takeda nodded and said, "Li Xiao, you don’t have to be humble. I know your talents, Shingen, so this time I’m determined to transfer you back from Katsurai and become a direct minister of my Takeda family. Reuse."

What?

   Takeda Katsurai, Li Xiao was taken aback.

   Takeda Katsurai looked at Li Xiaoru's right arm and couldn't leave him for a moment. Now what does Takeda Shingen mean when Li Xiao is transferred from Takeda Katsurai? Is this a reward for Takeda Katsurai's merits?

   Li Xiao secretly calculated that Shingen Takeda is not a targetless person. There must be a deep meaning behind his move, but what is it? Could it be...

   Li Xiao finally guessed a reason.

   At this time, Takeda Katsuyori risked to smash Takeda Shingen, saying: "Master Gokan, your subordinates are still inseparable from Li Xiao in many places, please..."

Shingen Takeda smiled and said, "Katsurai, you have grown up. You have proven your ability in Shirane Mountain or Iwasaki Castle. I believe that even if Li Xiao is not by your side, you can do it. That's great."

   While the generals of the Takeda family saw that Takeda Katsurai valued Li Xiao so much, they couldn't help but also looked at the chief general under Takeda Katsurai's command, and could not help but make a new evaluation.

   Takeda Katsuyori wanted to say more, but was stopped by Li Xiao. The meaning of Takeda Shingen's words was quite clear, and it would be meaningless to argue under the order of the lord.

   Li Xiao immediately said: "Thank you, Lord Lord, for your appreciation, and the ministers will serve as the Takeda family."

Shingen Takeda laughed and said: "Very well, Li Xiao, I Shingen has always valued you since Kawanakajima. Under Takeda Katsuyoshi, you have shown your loyalty to my Takeda family and your outstanding military exploits, which I will remember. mind."

After a pause, Shingen Takeda said in a serious tone: "Li Xiao, I am now dismissed from the post of Takeda Katsurai's spearmanship teacher, and I am appointed you as the former congregation of my Takeda family Shinano Azumino Prefecture, and also serve as the local ronin leader, Jangge To serve the general, he will receive a salary directly from his family with a salary of one thousand years."

   The former congregation of Azu-gun Zou? Ronin's head?

   Li Xiao was taken aback. Zou Qianzhong was the local commissioner who administers the territory of the Takeda family. It was also called the Goryoji. The Goryo was responsible for local management and taxation. The Goryaku was generally directly managed by the Goryo.

   The ronin head, as the leader of the local ronin, can recruit troops from it, and belongs to the military position.

   Takeda Shingen's move is tantamount to granting most of the powers of the civil and military positions of Anzu County to Li Xiao.

   You must know that the prefecture of the Takeda family’s Azumo-gun was Makinoshima Castle’s main bazaar letter house, but the Baba letter house served at the Tsuzakikan next to Takeda Shingen, and was basically unable to govern local affairs.

   The largest local noble family in Ansame County is the Nishina family, who was the minister of the Ogasawara clan guarding the former Shinano. During the invasion of Takeda Shingen Shinano, it was destroyed. Later, although he surrendered Takeda Shingen, his vitality was greatly injured. Now Takeda Shingen has let his five males, as the head of the Nishina family, inherit the fame of the Nishina family, which is later called Nishina Shingen.

   Now Nishina is only five years old, so Azu-gun is basically managed as a municipality directly under the Takeda family, and it is unable to intervene in local affairs.

Therefore, although Li Xiao’s predecessors and Ronintou are not big officials, they actually hold most of the real power of Anzu County~www.wuxiamtl.com~ but the real jurisdiction of Anzu County, as well as the mobilization of local farmers and soldiers. However, Masanobu Takaban, the lord of Haijin Castle who was in charge of the defense of North Shinano, took the charge of Machang Shinbo.

   The increase in salary from 600 guan to 1,000 guan also represents that Li Xiao has taken a heavy responsibility. According to the military service account led by the Takeda family, the salary is a one-thousand guan, and he has to bear more than one hundred military service. These one hundred rides, including the samurai Zuqing, but also the horseback samurai and the walking Zuqing are included in the list.

   Li Xiao thought in his heart, but why did Shingen Takeda want me to be placed in Anzu County?

  Azushima-gun is adjacent to Hida Country. Isn’t Takeda Shingen really going to carry out Hida Country Raiders in the next step?

   Li Xiao's thoughts flew in his mind, but he still screamed, expressing his gratitude to Takeda Shingen for the reward.

   Takeda Shingen Li Xiao agreed, expressing satisfaction.

   Then Takeda Shingen sent Takeda Katsuyori to another horse-riding stable, Changbo, and also transferred back to his home as a direct minister. Suddenly Takeda Katsurai's two generals, Li Xiao, and Baba Masabo were transferred away by Takeda Shingen.

   And Baba Masabo was promoted to general by Takeda Shingen, and Zhixing Two Thousand Stone was also sealed in Anzu County.

   Seeing Takeda Shingen's treatment like this, Li Xiao was even more convinced of the suspicion in his heart.

Next, Takeda Shingen Suyong said to the officials of the Takeda family: "Today, Shingen Takeda, I am here to announce the future strategy of the Takeda family. We need to know that the only obstacle to Shingen’s road to Luos in the world is Yue Uesugi Teru. He is also a lifelong enemy of Takeda Shingen. Therefore, the future strategic direction of the Takeda family is to attack the Echigo and level the Uesugi family as the goal. Please help me Shingen."

   As soon as Takeda Shingen's voice fell, the generals of the Takeda family were in a state of silence.

   And Li Xiao was also a little bit in his heart, and secretly said that it finally started.
