Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 308: Conspiracy to Yuezhong

Yonglu's ten years have passed since the end of the year.

The most sensational thing of the year was that the Oda family succeeded in capturing Inabayama Castle and becoming the master of Mino.

After Oda Nobunaga seized Mino, he made a new move. He first destroyed Inuyama Castle, and then moved the city to Inabayama Castle for the second time.

Oda Nobunaga destroyed the original Inaba Mountain Castle and rebuilt the castle on Inaba Mountain. He decided to use this as the starting point for the world of Buwu. Following the allusions of King Wen and Fengming Qishan, he changed the name of Inaba Mountain Castle to Gifu. .

As far as the ***66 countries are concerned, the Meinong country is the land of the hegemony with its back on the mountains and the world, and it can be said to be a land of victory with the form of soldiers.

Therefore, there have always been those who seized Mino, who seized the word of the world.

The terrain of Mino is high in the east and low in the west. It is sheltered by mountains from the east to the north, and to the west is a Pingchuan river, which is rich in grain and rice for military resources. Business economic support.

As for the land of Meinong, you can try to compare it to the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan in the Qin and Han Dynasties. In the words of the historical records, it is the terrain that is convenient.

Therefore, once the Oda family seized Mino, the world’s famous names, such as Kyushu Otomo, Shimadzu, Western "Mao"ri, Shikoku's head of the family, Kantohokujo, all with all kinds of feelings, look at the rapid development of this new entrant. Big names.

The Oda family put forward the slogan of "Buwu Tianxia" in Gifu City, showing its determination to enter the world and show its determination to enter the world.

Just as everyone thought that the ten years of Yonglu would pass by like this, ushering in the eleven years of Yonglu that are full of variables and countless possibilities.

At the end of the year, another major event happened. Although it was not as eye-catching as the Oda family’s entry into Mino, it was enough to affect the Kanto and even the entire world trend in the eyes of the Mingjian.

This incident immediately caused disturbances in the world, and the ten years of Yonglu, which was about to pass, became lively at the end of the year.

The origin of this incident came from Kai and Suruga near Mino.

Takeda Imagawa broke the alliance, the largest military alliance in the world, the three-nation alliance of Kasang-jun broke down.

The Takeda family and the Imagawa family did not accumulate evil in one day or two days. In fact, after Takeda Yoshinobu abolished his protagonist, the relationship between the two families has been continuously deteriorating.

Afterwards, the Takeda clan turned to an alliance with the mortal enemy of the Imagawa clan, the Oda clan. This move completely pushed the relationship between the two families to the edge.

Immediately, the Imagawa family retaliated and joined the Hojo family to ban salt from the Takeda family.

And Shingen Takeda immediately received Uesugi Kenshin's generous act of donating salt to the enemy, and the diplomatic relations between Jiayue and Vietnam were eased under this general environment.

In response to such hostile actions by the Imagawa family, Shingen Takeda immediately ordered a total of 237 people from the leaders of the country to submit a petition to cut Suruga and be accepted at the Ikushima Ashijima Shrine.

The Takeda family's actions formally expressed to the world the attitude of being hostile to the Imagawa family.

At this time, only two months after the Oda family seized Mount Inaba, the former son of the Takeda family imprisoned in Toko-ji Temple, the candidate of the family governor, Takeda Yoshinobu, died of illness on October 19 in a mad “chaos”. Thirty years old.

At the same time, Shingen Takeda ordered Nobuyuki Akiyama to be an envoy to the Oda family and officially confirmed the marriage of Matsuki and Wondermaru. The Takeda family and the Oda family further deepened their alliance, and Shingen Takeda finally had no worries about the future.

Once Yoshinobu died, the Oda family had replaced Imagawa as the strategic alliance of the Takeda family. Shingen Takeda put aside the pain of the death of the eldest son, and immediately made up his mind to "show" the "color" of the hero, and pine Takeda Yoshinobu's wife in November. Lingin and Yoshinobu's twin granddaughters were repatriated together to Suruga.

This means that the Takeda family and Imagawa family officially severed diplomatic relations, and the three-nation alliance was broken.

Suddenly, Shingen Takeda was preparing to send troops to Suruga to attack Imagawa's family.

The current situation of the Imagawa family is difficult to protect themselves. In addition to actively moving closer to the Hojo family, they also began to seek help from Uesugi Kenshin, north of the Takeda family and Echigo.

The eleventh year of Yonglu, the first month.

Yuezhong, Chengshengcheng.

After ending the war against Mino in the south and Mingdao Shengmeng stayed in town, Li Xiao returned to Yuezhong and took a seat in it.

In addition to serving as Li Xiao’s home city, Chengsheng City will also be the base camp for Li Xiao to attack Yuezhong in the future.

With the strategic direction of the Takeda family, the shift from north to south has made Li Xiao's life even more sad now.

The reason is simple. After the antagonism with the Imagawa family, Shingen Takeda shifted his strategic focus to Suruga. Although the three major rivals in the north, the army suppressed by Echigo did not move.

However, as the second-line Akiyama Nobuhiro, Takeda Nobuyao and other army groups, they are no longer able to support the north, and must turn to the south for defense.

Without backup support, Shingen Takeda gave the North Shinano Army Corps, and the command from the Nish Ueno Army Corps was only defensive.

Therefore, Masanobu Takasaka and Nobuya Kanri had to shrink the suppressing forces of Echigo's subordinates and focus all their attention on the defensive key cities.

Uesugi Kenshin breathed a sigh of relief at the Takeda family's strategic shift to the south, and the Uesugi family, who was in the encircling net, could finally twist their body slightly and stretch their hands and feet.

The strategic change of the Takeda family had nothing to do with Li Xiao. Although he could not take this opportunity to make another move to Yuezhong and expand his territory, for Li Xiao, it was not a big problem for Li Xiao to concentrate on defending his territory.

With this year's time, Li Xiao can focus on internal affairs and training standing. Once his power is further strengthened, he can continue to forge ahead and become more aggressive. It is not a problem at all.

But in the eleventh year of Yonglu, the task given to Li Xiao by Shingen Takeda was not easy.

Li Xiao received the strategy instructions given to him by Takeda Shingen, his eyes widened immediately, and he was speechless for a long time.

It turned out that Takeda Shingen ordered Li Xiao to aggressively attack Yuezhong, and his purpose was to occupy territory. The real purpose was to contain the Uesugi family's forces.

For Li Xiao, this is simply difficult for a strong man. The difficulty is only a little lower than that of Li Xiao leading the troops and directly attacking the main city of Uesugi's Kasuga Mountain Castle.

According to Li Xiao's estimation, based on his current strength, he can still win against the Jinbao family. At the same time, facing the two major forces of Jinbao and Shiina, self-protection is barely hindered.

But fighting Uesugi, Jimbo, and Shiina at the same time, there was only one dead word.

The above conditions were still in the situation where Kenshin Uesugi only drew out one hand to play in Yuezhong~www.wuxiamtl.com~ However, Shingen Takeda gave Li Xiao a death order to capture Minowa Castle, and the Takeda family rested for more than two years. , The land of Ueno has been completely digested, and now in order to capture the Imagawa family, the whole body is like a clockwork machine, running at full speed.

In order to be able to attack southward with all its strength, the Uesugi family must first resolve their worries.

Therefore, Li Xiao's containment of Uesugi's family is indispensable.

At present, the most favorable condition for Li Xiao is Hida. The situation in Mino has stabilized, avoiding his dilemma in multi-line combat.

Li Xiao can now draw his hands, gather the three major standings under the city, and use only the south to defeat the enemy.

At the same time, Li Xiao also began to ponder all the conditions that could be used.

And Shingen Takeda is not a subordinate, a terrible boss who blindly recklessly gives up.

Takeda Shingen has found two very powerful players for Li Xiao’s attack on Yuezhong this time.

These two people are not Jinbao Naga, and Echigo Yangbei's Honjo is prosperous.
