Samurai of the Takeda Family

Haijin City.

　　In Ohiroma of the castle tower, it is not Daimyo Shingen Takeda himself who lives, but Takeda Shinshige who is recovering from his wounds. The stack of mats in the room was covered with white sheets, and Nobuhiro Takeda was lying on it, his face was quite pale, apparently a sequelae of excessive blood loss after a serious injury.

　　 At this time, the sliding door was opened, and Shingen Takeda, wearing a straight suit, walked to the bed where Nobuhiro Takeda was lying and sat cross-legged, and then the sliding door was closed again by the little surname outside the door.

　　 "Brother." Shinshige Takeda was about to get up, but was stopped by Shingen Takeda.

"Jiro, you can heal your wounds with peace of mind. If it were not for your team to repel the Kakizaki Kei family and support it to the end, it would be difficult for our army to delay the situation until the moment when the Rangers drove back. The consequences of the battle would be unimaginable. Jiro, I and the others will agree that this time the Sichuan Nakajima battle is the result of your efforts."

　　 Takeda Nobuhiro heard that Shingen said, and said with a wry smile, "Brother I won the prize."

Shingen Takeda sighed and said, "My father was always dissatisfied with me at the time, and wanted to exile me in the name of studying in Suruga, and I am still exiled to the Kawa family. I had to exile my father from Kai, if it wasn't for your support. , The Takeda family is in danger of falling into civil strife. You have been doing your best for many years, fighting south and north, and this time you have made great contributions to my Takeda family. I believe that Qing Qing has always been in my heart."

　　 Takeda Nobuhiro smiled slightly and said, "Brother, it's too much to say that. Don't say that I am your brother. As a retainer of the Takeda family, this is also my duty."

　　 Takeda Shingen nodded and said: "I understand, this time Chuan Nakajima is fighting, Yoshinobu is too disappointing to me, and the tigers will die in battle. His ability is not enough to inherit the Takeda family..."

Seeing that he understood what his brother was going to say next, Takeda Nobuhira hurriedly interrupted, saying: "Brother, Taro is still young, and it is reasonable to make a mistake." After a pause, Nobuhira Takeda said again, "I am injured this time. His body is no longer enough to continue to fight for the Takeda family. So brother, I plan to enter the Tao as a monk, and after retiring, let Shintoyo inherit my position."

　　 Japan is a country of Buddhism. Most Japanese people are extremely religious in Buddhism. Therefore, it is normal for a daimyo or a samurai to become a monk. In Japan, it is not called a monk, but a monk. Even the emperor of Japan would become a monk. In the Heian Kamakura period, the emperor was called the emperor of the law after he became a monk.

　　 After the same daimyo or samurai became a monk, some people chose to retire and never went to the world again, while some people continued to hold the original power. For example, after Shingen Takeda became a monk, he still controlled everything as the governor of the Takeda family.

　　 Takeda Shingen was taken aback and asked, "Jiro, are you serious about this?"

　　 Takeda Nobuhiro nodded affirmatively, and said, "Years of killing and logging have made me tired, not to mention this serious injury and almost died. I understand a lot."

After hearing Shinhan's words, Takeda Shingen said, "Jiro, I understand that if it wasn't for Yoshinobu, it would be difficult to take on the responsibility. I have already passed on the position of house governor to him and let him inherit the Takeda family business. It's a pity that Taro is not up to date. ."

Takeda Nobuhiro comforted: "Even though Yoshinobu is a bit impatient, he will still be expected to be a lord in the future. At present, many retainers such as Baba, Brother Iitomi, Takasaka, and Naito have high hopes for Yoshinobu. My brother is not often said. People are mountains, and people are cities. As long as righteous faith can unite up and down, with my Takeda family’s famous ministers and brave generals, why not worry about not being able to dominate the world."

Takeda Shingen heard Takeda Nobuhiro say this, but his thoughts shifted to another place. As the eldest son of Takeda Yoshinobu, 90% of the future will inherit the position of the governor of the Takeda clan, and he himself has a high reputation among the vassals. This is He knows. However, a series of important ministers got close to him, which made him a little unhappy. After all, Shingen Takeda was also assisted by the important ministers of the Takeda family before successfully banishing his father Nobuto Takeda to the Chuan family.

　　If Yixin is at odds with his own opinion, will the servants support themselves, or will they support Yixin?

　　 Takeda Shingen thought for a while, and then suddenly asked, "Jiro, for the past ten days, Katsuyori has been taught by you. This time, he won the first rank of a samurai from the Echigo Army in the first battle. It is really rare."

　　 Takeda Nobuhira laughed, and said: "Katsurai, who has the demeanor of his elder brother back then, will definitely be a member of my Takeda family in the future."

Hearing Takeda Shingen's words, Shingen Takeda nodded with satisfaction and said, "Since Nine (Sister Takeda Shingen) died, I planned to let her and Suwa Laiju’s son Toraomaru inherit Suwa’s family. It’s a pity two years ago. Tonwang Maru died of illness before he took the original clothes. So I plan to win the Suwa family and let him inherit the Suwa family."

　　 "It is indeed a wise move to let Katsurai inherit Suwa's family."

Takeda Shingen listened to Takeda Nobuhiro's approval, and smiled and said: "Katsurai has the blood of the Suwa priest family. I decided to reward Gaotocheng to him as his residence, and send a suitable ride to him. You see. How about that Li Xiao?"

Nobuhiro Takeda did not expect Takeda Shingen to say this, and said: "Brother, why don't you use Li Xiao as a direct minister, but let him be a minister of Katsurai? In fact, from my observation, this man has a suspicious origin, but he has outstanding ability. He often has incredible imagination and action ability. It is not inferior to the generals of Iitomi, Takasaka, Naito, and Baba in just talking about his talents. If it were not for him, my military would have already collapsed. , And later, he risked your death to block Uesugi Kenshin for the lord. I think that if you grant him the merits of this battle, no one will object."

Shingen Takeda shook his head and said: "It is because he is of unknown origin and he is also a Ming countryman, so I can’t rest assured. He said before that he came to Kai in a shipwreck, but Kai is far away from the sea. How did he come here? It's suspicious. It's a pity that such a person is killed, but he doesn't worry about reusing it."

　　 "That's why my elder brother decided to let him be by Seorai."

"Yes, since he has good abilities, let him be the spearman of Katsurai, one can teach Katsurai, second, it can give us enough time to observe his loyalty to the Takeda family, and third, let him stay away from Takeda. The center of the home is not allowed to understand the reality of our army. In addition, Kansuke felt guilty because of the battle on Chuanzhong Island and the plot was seen through Uesugi Kenshin, so he asked to dismiss me as a military officer and withdraw his fief."

　　 Takeda Nobuhira hurriedly persuaded him after hearing this: "Brother, this battle is not the fault of Yamamoto Kansuke. Whether it is military strategy, strategy, or internal affairs, Kansuke is the best talent in my Takeda family. Don't let him be discouraged."

　　 "I don't know how this is. Unfortunately, Kansuke's intentions have been determined, and I can't dismiss it, so I decided to ask Kansuke to go to Gaoyuan City to assist Katsurai. At this point, he did not refuse."

Nobuya Takeda nodded and said, "Brother, it is so good, so that I can keep Kansuke, so that he can return to my Takeda family at any time, let alone Li Xiao and Kansuke, such two martial arts and outstanding talents to assist Katsura. , I must have helped him tremendously."

Shingen Takeda nodded and said: "Not only that, Kansuke's loyalty is absolutely reliable, and he can help me monitor Li Xiao's words and deeds. If Li Xiao is dissatisfied in the future, I should deal with it early. This is also a means of prevention. It would be a shame if such talents cannot be used by Shingen Takeda."
