Samurai of the Takeda Family

In the room, a map of the six northern countries was placed in front of Takeda Shingen and Li Xiao.

Takeda Shingen sat on the side of the map, pointed at Minowa Castle on the map with a folding fan, then swiped eastward, and said to Li Xiaoyan: "Although my ambition is in Shangluo, I still need to maintain sufficient influence in Kanto. So this year The focus of the strategy is still on the side of Nishi-Ueno. What do you think?"

Li Xiao thought for a while and said: "Shangzhou is an important place in the eight states. The soldiers are brave, the land is fertile, and the land is rich with war horses. At the same time, it is also important for the family to raid the Uesugi family. You must be in your hands. From the overall point of view, if Uesu is lost, Uesugi can once again go out to Shinano and confront my Takeda army on the front line of Kawanaka Island, and then order the Nagano family from Minowa Castle to pass through. The Bingtoge entered Shinano, flanked at the rear of our army, and flanked back and forth, so that the army in front of our army would be in a situation where it would be impossible to recover."

Taking Li Xiao's analysis, Takeda Shingen nodded, obviously Li Xiao's judgment coincided with him.

Li Xiao went on to say: "The key to Shangzhou lies in the two cities of Minoru City and Stable Bridge City. If you do not capture these two cities, you will not be able to get to Shangzhou, even if you capture it, you can't defend it. , To strengthen our family’s defense in Nishi-Ueno, to have Kenshi, and at the same time, to interact with Iwaju Castle, threatening Uesugi Kenshin’s stronghold in Kanto, Stable Bridge Castle from the rear."

Li Xiao pointed his finger to the location of Stable Bridge City on the map and said: "Shangzhou is the only hub connecting Echigo and Kanto, and it is also the only way for Uesugi Huihu to leave Kanto. The road is cut off, so Uesugi Huihukong has the title of governing leader, but is unable to control the reality of the Kanto, so his influence in the Kanto will no longer exist."

Takeda Shingen narrowed his eyes and said, "Li Xiao, you are right, but if Uesugi Terutora is unable to go to Kanto, I am afraid that Kanto will be annexed by Hojo sooner or later. Once Hojo unifies Kanto, Hojo will reappear in Kamakura. The ruling atmosphere and the greater power will be the biggest problem for Kai at that time."

Li Xiao smiled slightly, but turned to say: "I think the lord has already decided on this."

Shingen Takeda nodded and said, "You said that's right. My family’s strategy in Ueno is enough to take down Minowa Castle, leave Stable Bridge Castle to Uesugi Terutora, keep his passage out of Kanto, and let him continue to help us. Contain the Hojo family."

What Li Xiaoxin said Takeda Shingen said, as expected, the situation is exactly the same as in history.

After a pause, Takeda Shingen said to Li Xiao: "This year, my family will focus on the West Ueno strategy. Everything will be the first. In the direction of Yuezhong and Hida, it is impossible to send out the mountain prefecture like last year. It is impossible to provide you with more military and financial assistance. Everything depends on you."

Li Xiao's expression changed when he heard it. Takeda Shingen's words were tantamount to letting him fight against the war alone in Vietnam, while facing the pressure of the Jinbo family and Shiina family independently.

Although Li Xiao felt that with his current military strength, the offense was still insufficient, but it was still possible to defend himself against the offensive of either Jinbao or Shiina independently, but it would be dangerous for Li Xiao to switch to two families to do it together.

What's more, the situation in Hida has not settled down, if Shingen Takeda retreats to Hida's aid this year.

So Li Xiao can only huddle in Shengang this year, and Chengsheng and Liangcheng will be huddled tortoises.

So Li Xiao went to Takeda Shingen and put on a look like "I am in trouble, I need help very much."

If it weren't for the image of the samurai, Li Xiao would almost roll around and ask for money.

Li Xiao still said: "Lord, if the Jinbao family and Shiina family come to attack, it will be very difficult for me to face any big-name power independently. If there are more unexpected changes, the consequences will be disastrous."

Shingen Takeda waved his hand and said: "I have passed the Sanjo family, and I will soon reach an agreement with Honganji. Then the two companies will form an alliance. The Lord of Honganji promises to support you in Vietnam. If Uesugi Kenshin comes to the strategy, you can ask Honganji for the support that has always been the case. Besides, I think the Jinbao family and Shiina family are enemies of each other, and it is impossible to fight the enemy together."

Li Xiao thought for a while and said, "Although I said that, I only have two cities in Hida Yuezhong. Just about to move, if they contact either the Jimbo’s or Shiina’s to attack, I will be in danger in Yuezhong."

Shingen Takeda was quite embarrassed when Li Xiao said this, and asked, "Then do you need any help from your family?"

Li Xiao pondered for a while, and said to Takeda Shingen: "I want to ask my family for help with ten thousand guanjun funds."

"Ten thousand sticks." Takeda Shingen took a breath and said, "It's not that I can't afford so much money, but now you also know that Kurokawa Jinshan is almost exhausted, and the use of troops in Nishi Ueno also requires a lot of military funds. . Ten thousand sticks can't be allocated to you at all."

Takeda Shingen thought for a while, and said: "Li Xiao, I can't give you money. But I will give you the same Hida Raiders last time. This time, the Viet Chung Raiders is a decision made by Li Xiao alone."

"Is it my own choice?" Li Xiao's body was shocked, that is, Yuezhong was left at his disposal. If Li Xiao could capture how much, it would be considered Li Xiao's stone high, and there was such a good thing.

Takeda Shingen nodded and said, "Yes, Etsuchu Ishi is 400,000 high. Except for the Uesugi family and Honganji each occupying a part, Jinbao and Shiina are 200,000. As long as you are strong enough, Li Xiao How many tens of thousands of stone highs lay, the whole number will be counted for you."

Li Xiao knows that this is not a special favor given by Takeda Shingen to Li Xiao. Historically, Takeda Shingen and Takeda Katsuyori also gave Sanada the same power.

Historically, the Sanada family did not demand any soldiers from the Takeda family. Instead, with the joint efforts of the two generations of Yutaka Sanada and Masayuki Sanada, the territory of the Sanada family went all the way from Shinano Ogori Prefecture to Ueno Agatsuma Prefecture. , Directly expand the head of the family to Numata Castle.

By the end of the Takeda family, the stone height of the Sanada family had reached nearly 70,000 stones.

However, although Takeda Shingen's words are simple, they are similar to writing a bad check, which is equivalent to the boss in the company telling the employees that if you can earn one million without any help from the company, I will divide you 800,000.

Li Xiao thought about it. Although he didn't get any help and tilt in the strategy of Etchu Hida from his family, it was not bad to get Takeda Shingen's promise.

In the end, Li Xiao replied: "I will do my best to guard the passage of Hida Yuezhong for my family."

Shingen Takeda laughed and said to Li Xiao: "Very well, Li Xiao, you just do everything."

After a pause, Shingen Takeda said to Li Xiao in a chatty tone: "Do you know why I believe you can gain a foothold in Yuezhong on your own?"

Li Xiaoyan said: "I think it is the lord's appreciation of me. I think I have this strength."

Shingen Takeda shook his head and said, "I don't know that, Li Xiao, you are an ambitious person. I am confident that Shingen is right on this point."

Li Xiao was shocked when he heard Takeda Shingen say this, and asked, "Ambition?"

Shingen Takeda put the folding fan in his hand and shook it lightly. He looked at Li Xiaoyan with an insightful gaze and said, "Li Xiao, as far as I know you are flying in Yuezhong. You have formed two standing forces. There are a thousand troops, right? ?"

Li Xiao solemnly said: "Exactly."

Then Takeda Shingen seemed to change into a questioning tone, and asked: "Li Xiao, with your current 20,000 stone height, you can actually maintain a 1,000 stand-by position. For another person, with 20,000 stone height, I am afraid that even one. Thousands of peasants and soldiers are very difficult to mobilize. I want to ask this money, where did you come from?"

Could it be that Shingen Takeda knew about Ginzan Shinoka, Li Xiao's first thought was this.

Li Xiao knew that now that he would be honestly confessing that he would not be blamed by Shingen Takeda when he handed over Shingen Ginoka, but this concealing the hiding of the master's house would definitely make Shingen Takeda leave a bad impression on him.

However, Li Xiao was not unprepared, he had filed a response to this matter.

So Li Xiao calmly replied: "There is nothing to hide from the lord, yes, the subordinates maintain a standing army of a thousand troops, and they are also equipped with a lot of iron cannons, and the money spent is due to It came from the surplus income from the Mingguo ramen restaurant opened in the next."

Hearing what Li Xiaozhi said, Shingen Takeda’s calm face suddenly let out a smile, and said: “It’s really good as I expected. If other generals in this family have an industry with a surplus of thousands of times a year like Mingguo Ramen Restaurant, It might have been used to buy tea utensils, famous swords, war horses, showgirls or other luxury goods, but you can put them into armaments."

Li Xiao let out a sigh of relief. It seems that Shingen Takeda didn't know the news of Ginzan Kamioka, so it would be easier.

"It's very rare that young people at your age can not cherish money and enjoy it. This is very rare, but it can also be seen that you have more ambitious plans."

But Takeda Shingen's next sentence, UU reading www.uukanshu. com made Li Xiaoxin mention it again.

Li Xiao hurriedly explained: "Lord, it's not that I don't care about money, but that I have always lived like this. I heard that when the Hojo family ruled the world, they were also honest and frugal, so I want to follow suit."

Shingen Takeda pointed at Li Xiao with the handle of the fan, and said with a smile: "Imitate the Hojo clan ruling Kamakura? Could it be that you, a Ming countryman, also have the ambition to usurp the world in a foreign country?"

Li Xiao hurriedly said: "The subordinates do not mean to be in charge of the world, but I am eager to be able to stand out and be in the top ranks. If so, this is a bit of ambition of the subordinates."

Sure enough, Shingen Takeda chuckled and said, "Li Xiao, when I recruited you to be a samurai, you could see that your eyes flashed with ambition and ambition. Shingen doesn't always look away when I see people, you know? I saw you for the first time at that time. I saw in you 20 years ago, after Kansuke introduced, I came to my Sanada Kazunari."

"Sir Sanada Yidezhai?" Li Xiao was suddenly surprised.

Takeda Shingen actually compared himself with Sanada Kotaka. . ..
