Samurai of the Takeda Family

Faced with Takeda Shingen’s solicitation, Li Xiao concealed his joy, but he hesitated for a while, and still said: "Thank you for your kindness. Although I have no relatives in Daming, I am a military commander of the imperial court. How can I go abroad? ?"

　　 Li Xiao's refusal was somewhat unexpected by Takeda Shingen.

But Shingen Takeda had already determined that Li Xiao was a powerful general who could rival the three armies. How could he easily let him go, so he started to persuade him: "Kafei is a thousand miles away from Ming State, and there is an ocean barrier. Although you have your homeland in your heart, but I'm afraid the journey will be difficult and dangerous."

　　 Racecourse Letter Room also said: "Yes, I heard from the merchants who came to say that Ming Guohai is strictly banned. If you rush back home by ferry, I'm afraid you will get into trouble."

　　 Li Xiao heard this from the horse farm letter house, and he thought it was true. Of course, the Ming Dynasty banned the sea due to sea disasters.

Seeing Li Xiao hesitating, Shingen Takeda felt that there was a play, and then replied: "Li Xiao, I know that you are worried about the difficulty of adapting to the environment. Why don't you follow the national etiquette system for all manners during your stay in my Takeda family? According to the rules, even if you see me, you don’t have to pay homage."

　　 Just as I wanted, Li Xiao looked overjoyed, stepped forward and said with a fist: "The lord is so generous, Li, and Li will swear to death."

　　 Shingen Takeda laughed loudly after hearing this, and raised Li Xiao's arms with both hands. The two staged a touching scene of the meeting between the rulers and the ministers.

After that, Shingen Takeda not only rewarded Li Xiao with a hundred pens worth of dust, and gave him an excellent armor, but also specially selected a'tall horse' to Li Xiao. This ratio is relative to the small Japanese horse. .

　　 Li Xiao knew that these objects were given by Takeda Shingen in order to win him over.

Just like in the past, when I played games by myself, I offered a weapon or armor to the newly recruited ronin with low loyalty. The loyalty of the subordinates immediately went from 70 to 100, such as Date Masamune and Honda Tadaka. Such fierce will all be effective.

Although he played the Nobunaga game, Li Xiao once worked as a military commander collecting madman. He bought and gathered all the famous generals of the Warring States period under his command, and each of them had a loyalty of 100. It is hard to think about it. It is easy to play such a game for a long time. I'm bored.

　　In reality, human nature is too complicated. Everyone’s "loyalty" is invisible to the lord, and the generals have different understanding of the word "loyalty".

　　 As for how loyal Li Xiao is to the Takeda family, only God knows.

　　 While Li Xiao was constantly yelling at his prospects at the Takeda family, a group of twelve and three Takeda cavalry units arrived at the base. As far as Li Xiao knows, among samurai, those who can ride horses are generally classified as high-level samurai.

　　 So Li Xiao stared at the cavalry of a dozen people carefully to see if he could see one or two famous generals from the Takeda family.

　　 "Jiro, you are finally here," Shingen Takeda strode over and came to the horse-riding military commander. The riding general immediately jumped off the horse, took off the armor on his head, and knelt on his knees and said, "See you brother."

　　 Li Xiao took a closer look. This military commander wore the unique red armor of the Takeda clan. Except for his younger age compared with Shingen, the two men looked very similar, and even the beard and hair styles were exactly the same.

According to inaccurate records, Shingen Takeda has two younger brothers who look very similar to him. When he is not in front of the battlefield, one of them is often a'shadow fighter', posing as Shingen, and commanding him as the chief commander. Whole army.

This is also a fictitious strategy in the art of war, such as using the "Kagemusi" as a stand-in, deliberately letting the enemy's work be careful, mistakenly thinking that Takeda Shingen himself is still sitting in the Kai Junior High School, and has no plans to invade, but in fact Shingen himself has already kissed him. The handsome army came to the opponent's city.

　　 This person is naturally his second brother, Nobuhiro Takeda.

　　 "Brother, Haijin City is here to report that the Echigo Army has established its main battle at the Wife and Daughter Mountain by the Chikuma River."

　　 Takeda Shingen thought for a while, then said in a deep voice, "What is Masanobu doing?"

　　 "Master Takasaka sees outnumbered, has set fire to the castle town and retreats to the city, and the Echihou army seems to have plans to attack the city. Should we speed up the march?"

Takeda Shingen thought for a while and said, "No, our army is advancing quickly and is falling into the big net laid by the Echigo Army. The Uesugi family has been seeking a decisive battle with our army. If our army advances quickly, the opponent will wait for work. Fall into the opponent's trap."

　　 After a pause, Shingen Takeda obviously didn't want to say more. He glanced at Li Xiao beside him and said, "Jiro, I will introduce you a military commander from Ming Dynasty. He is now a samurai in his family."

　　 Li Xiao is now fully clothed, quite a bit of the temperament of a Japanese warring States warrior. When Takeda saw it, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "What a majestic military commander, are Ming people so majestic?"

　　 Takeda Shingen said triumphantly: "I believe this man is enough to defeat the three armies."

Shingen Takeda immediately summoned Li Xiao to come and said, "Li Xiao, this is my brother Xinfan. He is proficient in the culture of your Ming country. He has in-depth research on the four books, five classics, and calligraphy of Chinese characters. You will follow him in the future. I’ve been around for a while, worshiping him as a teacher and learning the language here."

　　 Li Xiao looked at Takeda Nobuhira who was constantly smiling, and thought that this person is a Chinese expert, so you should never show any trouble in front of him.

　　 Of course, Li Xiao came forward to see it, and Takeda Shinshige also looked very pleased.

　　 In most of the Sengoku games in Japan, Nobuhiro Takeda is a short-lived character, but for the Takeda family at this moment, he is the number two character, both civil and military, second only to his brother.

　　 In the early years, Takeda Nobuto, the head of the Takeda family, planned to abolish his son Shingen, and let his beloved second son Nobuhan inherit the Takeda family business. However, with the support of his ministers, Shingen Takeda banished his father Shinto and became the owner of the family.

　　 In the dilemma between his father and his elder brother, Shinfan chooses his elder brother. It is precisely because of his support that after Shingo left, the Takeda family retainers united under Shingen's command to an unprecedented level.

　　 Since then, Shinshige has always supported his brother, participated in every battle of the Takeda family, followed Shingen like a shadow, and his strategic and tactical capabilities were not inferior to his brother, and he firmly ranked second in the Takeda family.

　　According to Xin Xuan's instructions, Li Xiao was sent to Shin Fan as a rider, but Li Xiao did not expect that his defeated fighter Takeda Katsurai, along with Li Xiao, was sent to Shin Fan's uncle.

　　 Takeda Shingen had the meaning of letting Li Xiao teach victory over Lai martial arts.

　　 Sitting on the chestnut horse, Li Xiao was extremely nervous, as a modern man asked him to drive his bicycle, motorcycles, even BMW, Mercedes-Benz and other vehicles.

　　 But if you want him to ride a horse, Li Xiao’s riding skills are simply impossible to talk about. Let alone riding a horse and galloping, even the simplest way of transportation is not safe.

　　 Walking on the bumpy Shinano mountain path, coupled with an armor that is inconvenient to move, especially the two exaggerated large sleeves on his shoulders (that is, the armor that protects the shoulders), it makes him unable to control his balance with both hands. Moreover, the two waist knives at the waist, one long and one short, according to the Japanese, the short one is called the ribs, and the long one is called Tachi. These two knives make him almost unable to twist his waist, which makes him particularly uncomfortable.

　　 Fortunately, Li Xiao did not wear the Throat Chakra that covers the chin, cheeks and neck, otherwise he would really suffocate to death.

　　 But the situation is not so good now. Fortunately, the Oriental horse under Li Xiaodian is quite docile. If Li Xiaodian was to be dismounted, it would be a shame.

　　 "Li Xiao, maybe this is the first time riding a horse, right?"

　　 Li Xiao turned his head and saw Takeda Shinshige's face that was not smiling. He steadily rode on the horse and talked to Li Xiao.

　　 Li Xiao couldn't help adjusting his posture on the saddle, fidgeting like constipation, he knew that he was undoubtedly in a panic now. The most important thing is that he declared to the public that he was a military commander of the Ming Dynasty, but he obviously would not ride, which was obviously incompatible with the status of a military commander.

Li Xiao used an awkward expression to conceal the panic in his heart, and said: "It's true that you don't know how to ride horses. The Fujian that Li guards is mostly hills and waters. Therefore, although there is no shortage of horses, it is difficult to gallop. As a general, I mostly walk."

Nobuhiro Takeda showed a clear expression. He laughed and said, "That's it." At this time, after losing to Li Xiao, Takeda Katsuyori, who was still somewhat unconvinced, interjected: "A samurai can't ride a horse. It's a shame."

　　 After finishing speaking, Takeda Katsurai took a heavy whip and galloped in front of Li Xiao, leaving him far behind.

　　 Li Xiao saw Takeda Katsurai's temperamental disposition as a child, and couldn't help but smile, and at the same time felt that Takeda Nobuhira next to him was still watching him. Li Xiao secretly warned that both Xinxuan and Xinfan are careful people. It is difficult to prevent the other party from seeing a clue in the details.

　　 At the moment, only one step can be counted. Li Xiao can only adapt to the identity of the Warring States military commander as soon as possible and integrate into the atmosphere of the Takeda family. This is the most critical at present. So Li Xiao immediately humbly asked Takeda Shinhan for advice on equestrianism.

　　Takeda Nobuhira did not hide his personal interests. He shared some of his usual experience and insights on equestrianism. After Li Xiao studied equestrianism, he immediately became good at equestrianism. This made Takeda Nobuhira also very sense of accomplishment. The rise of a teacher, a joy of learning, and soon the "friendship" of the two rises rapidly.

　　 After Li Xiao got used to the bumps of the horse under the hips, the two began to talk, and Nobuhiro Takeda introduced the origins of the Takeda family to him.

　　 Speaking from the ancestor of Silla Saburo Yoshimitsu, Yoshimitsu's son Xinyi changed his surname to Takeda and became the first head of the Takeda family. After that, the Takeda family experienced civil strife. UU reading www.uukanshu. Com was re-emerged by Nobuto Takeda, the twenty-four patriarch, and unified the Kai country. The territory is now glorious on the current patriarch, Shingen Takeda, and the Shinano country is basically annexed.

　　 And Li Xiao has already mastered all this, but he now cares more about what age he was in the Warring States Period in Japan. The current year is definitely not an astronomical year, nor is it a later Tianzheng year. Most likely it should be the Yonglu year.

　　 Regarding Li Xiao, who has cleared countless times in Naganoya and Taige Zhizhuan, it is a very basic common sense to be familiar with the beginning years of each script. Just like ashes players who are used to the Three Kingdoms series, they can tell with their eyes closed that the script of the Yellow Turban Rebellion started in 184 AD.

　　 If at this time Shingen had already occupied the entire territory of Shinano country. Then it will inevitably conflict with Uesugi Kenshin, known as the "Dragon of Echigo" in the northern Echigo country. In history, Uesugi Kenshin received strong support from Shinano who was expelled from the Takeda family and led troops to fight Takeda Shingen five times in the area around Kawanaka Island.

　　 This period of history has been described in detail in the movie "Heaven and Earth" I have seen before.

　　 Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin are both known as the heroes of the world, and their military strategies and subordinates are comparable. It was these two men who fought in Shinano for more than ten years. They spent too much time and made no progress. They missed the best time to unify Japan with each other. This made countless later readers feel embarrassed. pity.

　　 Following Takeda Nobuhira's account, the facts are as expected by Li Xiao. The Takeda family not only fought the Uesugi family early, but also confronted Uesugi Kenshin's army on Kawanaka Island three times before.

　　 And now in 1561, in the fourth year of Yongluo, Japan, Shingen Takeda led his army for the fourth time, from Kai north to Uesugi Kenshin to fight near Chuanzhong Island, which is known as the fourth joint battle between Chuanzhong Island in history.
