Samurai of the Takeda Family

The snow fell on the ground, and another year passed in a blink of an eye.

　　 It has been five years since Yongroku, and it has been five years since Emperor Mashincho ascended the throne.

　　 When the Emperor Mashincho ascended the throne, because after the Onin Rebellion, the imperial ministers were already in decline, there was no imperial land, and financial income and expenditure were difficult, and even the ascension ceremony could not be held. It wasn't until the name of the Western Kingdom, Morimoto, that he offered a large sum of money, and Emperor Mashincho took the throne three years later and re-organized the ceremony.

　　 In return, the Emperor Mashincho also bestowed Motojo Mori, from the rank of the five right horse heads, and gave chrysanthemum and paulownia, the royal coat of arms of the Maori family.

　　 And at this moment, Motomo Motomo, who is the number one wise officer in the Seto Inland Sea, has revealed the atmosphere of dominating the Western countries.

　　 After the night battle of Itsukushima, the Ouchi family, which was at its peak, was wiped out under the invasion and attack of the Maori family.

　　 The nuns from the Eleven Kingdoms of Shanyang and Shanyin were built from scratch for a long time. The family business of the established nuns gradually declined due to the improper management of the successors. In the third year of Yonglu, the house governor of the Nizi family, Niziqing, died of illness for a long time.

　　 Nizi family can only survive the Maori offensive.

　　 In the five years of Yonglu, Mao Liyuan’s dream of unifying the Western countries has become within reach.

　　 In Kyushu, it was Otomo's family who succeeded Ouchi as the upstart of Kyushu.

The Otomo family inherited the Kyushu site of the Ouchi family. At that time, Otomo Zonglin, the head of the Otomo family, was later named a Catholic daimyo. Three years ago, he was named Kyushu Tanti. Although in Yonglu’s five-year confrontation with Maori, Slightly inferior to the Maori yuan, but there is no rival in Kyushu.

　　 And in the future, the three males of Kyushu, Satsuma Shimadzu, and Ryuzouji, who are also known as Otomo, have been quietly rising, but at this moment there is still no substantial conflict with Otomo’s family.

In the Shikoku, which is separated by the sea from Kyushu, the leader of the Shikoku, the leader of the long ancestor, was defeated in the crucial battle to determine the dominance of Tosa County in the past year, that is, the five years of Yongroku. The old enemy, Honyama, was in Asakura Castle and took Tosa County into his palms, taking a solid step towards unifying the four kingdoms.

　　In Gyeonggi, the Miyoshi family took the general to order the princes.

　　 The Miyoshi family at this moment is just like the sky, and it has Kinki, the four kingdoms and nearly nine countries, and controls Gyeonggi to command the world.

At this time, the Miyoshi family had a faint sign of prosperity and decline. In the five years of Yonglu, although the Miyoshi family broke the hexagon in the battle of Jiaoxing Temple, and the Hetian coalition army, the two brothers of Miyoshi Changqing who were accustomed to fighting When the ten rivers survived, Miyoshi Yoshihyun died one after another, and the power came to an end, giving the careerist Song Yongye a chance to show up.

　　 And the Tokugawa family of the Oda family concluded the Cheongju Alliance in the five years of Yongluo, and each cleaned up the Owari within the territory, and Mikawa’s non-compliance was for future expansion. ready.

　　 is also the fifth year of Yonglu, in Kanto.

　　 Imagawa, which used to be known as one of the most famous ones, has fallen, replaced by the Three Kingdoms, which was staged by the Takeda family, Hojo family, and Uesugi family.

　　 Ueno Country and Musashi Country have become the battlefield for the three powers.

　　 Kenshin Uesugi once again went out to Kanto, but fell into the betrayal of the Ueno tycoons and the harassment of the Takeda army, so he could not come to Odawara again.

　　 The Kai's Tiger Takeda Shingen immediately launched an invasion of Nishiueno after Nagano Kazuki died of illness.

Although in May Takeda Shingen’s eldest son Takeda Yoshinobu, and his important minister Iifumi Toramasho was defeated by Uesugi Kenshin, the fourth son Suwa Katsuyai stayed at Iwaki Castle and made Uesugi Kenshin fight his subordinates hard, and finally waited for Takeda Shingen’s The reinforcements forced Kenshin Uesugi to retreat.

　　 Since Takeda Katsuyoshi found a foothold for the Takeda family in Ueno.

　　 The Takeda family has captured the three counties of Agatsuma, Ganraku, and Dohu in Ueno, and they have established a foothold in Ueno.

　　 In November, the Takeda family was invited by Hojo and once again went to Ueno. The two armies of Takeda and Hojo joined forces under the castle of Musashi Matsuyama.

　　 Takeda Shingen went into battle in person, and at the same time, Takeda’s general in charge of Nishi Ueno, Takeda Katsuyori, also led five thousand troops to help. The Hojo clan Kang also brought his two sons, Hojo clan Masa and Hojo clan, to the battle. The total force of the two armies reached 46,000.

　　 Koiwadake Castle in Azumino-gun, Shinano.

　　 At the castle pavilion of Xiaoyanyake Castle, Li Xiao dressed in a samurai robe, standing in front of the window pavilion, looking at the snow scene in front of him.

　　 The sky and the earth are vast, the snow is flying, and the trees in the four fields are covered with a thick layer of snow.

　　 This small rock mountain castle is the main city of the ancient stables of the Nishina family. In the 21st year of astronomy, Shingen Takeda led his army to capture this city. The ancient stables surrendered the Takeda family. Since last July, when Li Xiao led his subordinates to Azu-gun to take up his post, Shingen Takeda has additionally rewarded Li Xiao for his military exploits in the battle of Murakami Yoshiki.

　　 Therefore, Li Xiao was appointed as the generation of Iwatake Castle, and the salary was increased by two hundred guan, reaching the amount of one thousand and two hundred guan.

　　 However, as a city generation, Zhixing has not been given to Li Xiao, on the contrary, it is an extra responsibility for Li Xiao.

　　 Time flies, half a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and it is now the New Year. This is also the second New Year since Li Xiao came to Japan and the Warring States Period. Today, on the first day of the new year, Dao Sheng Meng, Shioka Kazuyu and other Li Xiao’s direct family members and their female relatives came to congratulate Li Xiao together.

　　 After congratulating, Li Xiao hosted a banquet in the castle tower. After drinking a few more glasses of sake, Li Xiao felt a little bit on his face, so he went to the top floor of the castle tower to blow air and breathe.

　　 Li Xiao retracted his gaze from a distance, then stretched out his hands, sighed for a long time, and then rubbed each other's hands to warm them.

　　 I saw the townspeople’s houses in the castle town. The outside houses were covered with snow, but the interiors were brightly lit and filled with warmth. The long live songs sang by the townspeople came from a distance, adding a bit of New Year’s atmosphere.

　　 Presumably at this time, the people are all in the house, the whole family is grilling and chatting, and there are rice cakes on the stove. As everyone listened to the "crackling" of the rice cakes, and smelled the scorched aroma of the rice cakes, they felt warm.

　　 Li Xiao watched this scene, and there was a warmth in his heart, and Li Xiao's subordinates in the Tianshou Pavilion also let go, eating and drinking, and there were bursts of laughter from below.

　　 Obviously, there was another person inspiring Chang'an to perform ape music and win everyone's laughter.

　　 This time Li Xiao came to Azu-gun and asked Takeda Katsuyori for the Tibetan Changan as his retainer.

　　 Takeda Katsuyori agreed in one fell swoop, and Changan of Great Tsang could see that he was not reluctant, but it still agreed because of the lord’s face.

　　 Li Xiao thought deeply about what was going on, and suddenly noticed that his shoulders sank. He turned around and saw that Yumi Ohata brought a cloak to herself.

　　 Today is the New Year, and Yumi Ohata changed her usual samurai dress and changed into a female dress. The long straight hair fell down her scented shoulders, which made Li Xiao feel pleasing to the eye.

　　 Li Xiao smiled to Yumi Kohata ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and said: "Why don't you drink?"

　　 Xiaoba Yumi smiled and shook her head. Although there are female family members downstairs, she always finds it inconvenient. Sometimes being with Li Xiao makes her feel more comfortable.

　　 "Lord, I have served you for almost a year." Yumi Obata said beside Li Xiao.

　　 Li Xiao nodded, and the scene of meeting the two sisters Xiaohata is still vivid when he captured Guofeng City.

　　 At that time, the two sisters died of their parents and were almost taken captive by Takeda Yoshinobu. Although they were unsuccessful in the end, one of Oba Yumi's younger brother was killed by Takeda Yoshinobu's men.

　　Looking at Li Xiao staring at him, Oba Yumi didn't feel a slight blush, and then suddenly asked: "Master, you are in trouble here, you must be very concerned about Mingguo's wife and children?"

　　 Li Xiao laughed when he heard it, and said, "I haven't married yet? Where are the wives and children from?"

　　Obata Yumi was taken aback when Li Xiao said this, her head slightly lowered, as if she was hiding her expression.

　　 turned to Yumi Ohata, but said: "Really? The lord is such a hero, how can he still not marry a wife? Is the lord's vision too high?"

　　 Li Xiao shook his head, and suddenly remembered his girlfriend in college, reluctantly smiled and said, "I didn't pull it, we broke up."

　　 "Break up? What does it mean to break up?" Yumi Obata couldn't help asking.

Li Xiao patiently explained: "Where do we know the country, no, in the place where I live, marriage is determined by men and women, not by the master or parents. Therefore, before marriage, men and women must get along for a while. If the time is not appropriate, leave without getting married. This is called a breakup."

　　 Oba Yumi heard this and nodded, and said: "So this is called a breakup. Lord, I must miss her so much."

　　 Li Xiao laughed and did not answer in silence.
