Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 351 Strategic Direction

"Forcing peace by war."

"Beat the Hojo family in three months."

As soon as Li Xiao's point of view was raised, there was a moment of silence above the hall, and no one said anything.

At this time, the commander of Nishi Ueno Corps under Li Xiao's head, Masahiro Naito, said: "It's not easy to defeat the Hojo clan in three months. Hojo Clan Yasushi is the current hero, so how can he easily claim to be defeated."

Li Xiao smiled slightly and said: "Master Naito, I don't know. I spent a lot of money in Odawara and got a secret report. Hojo Shikang is seriously ill and has difficulty getting out of bed, so I don't need to worry too much about it right now."

After hearing Li Xiao say this, Naito Masahiro asked oh, "Is this news accurate?"

Li Xiao nodded and said: "It is indeed correct."

After hearing this, Naito Masahiro nodded and stopped talking.

At this time, among the judges, Sanada Nobutsuna, the last Sanada clan superintendent, said: "If Hojo clan Yasushi is not in the Hojo army, then the rest of the Hojo clan will not be in our eyes."

Nobutsuna Sanada said this to show that the Sanada family supports Li Xiao, and this is where the tacit understanding reached between Li Xiao and Masayuki Sanada at the beginning.

Li Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Master Sanada, even if Mr. Kang is not there, the Hojo family still has a brave general like Rehmannia Hachiman. We should not neglect it and plan to win."

Seeing Li Xiao's objective words, Sanada Nobutsune smiled slightly, and said nothing.

At this time, Takeda Shinren smiled and said: "I remember when he went out to Musashi Matsuyama Castle, after Tajima Shou-sama competed with Hojo Tsuna. The other party has been practicing gun skills and wanted to fight again with Tajima Shou-sama. Zhan, you didn't meet each other, it is said that he has always regretted it."

Li Xiao laughed when he heard the words, and said: "The spear technique of the Ground Yellow Eight Banners is as fierce as his tactics, even I have no confidence in resisting it."

This is not Li Xiaomodest. In the battle of Sanzengge, the majority of the losses of the Takeda army were caused by the heavy attack by the ground yellow Hachiman, and even the commander of the West Ueno Army, Asari Shinkin, died in the battle.

Hojo Tsunari's combat power is horrible, and he doesn't want to lift himself up high and be condemned by others.

After Takeda Shinren's laugh, the atmosphere of the meeting eased slightly above the hall.

At this time, Takeda Katsurai also said: "My father, I also think that Li Xiao's suggestion can be implemented."

As the future governor of the house, Takeda Katsurai is now backing Li Xiao, which immediately changed the overall situation of the meeting.

On the mountain county, the horse farm, the Kai family vassals, none of them expressed their support or opposition.

At this time, Shingen Takeda shook his folding fan lightly and said: "Li Xiao, defeating the Hojo clan in three months, what he said is good, do you have any plans for the overall situation?".

Li Xiao cried out and said: "Return to the lord, to defeat the Hojo clan within three months. Kai and the army of Nan Shinano alone are not enough. I suggest that you can take advantage of this short time to make peace with Uesugi from Beixin. Noon, Hida Yuezhong, Nishiueno dispatched troops to cooperate with the Suruga Legion of Lord Isan Prefecture, and put on a posture of fighting the Hojo clan with all their strength."

When Shingen Takeda heard the words, his eyes sank, and he said: "You mean that if you mobilize the power of the country, if you mobilize troops from Hida Yuezhong, if Uesugi comes to attack Yuezhong, what can you resist?"

Li Xiao lowered his head and solemnly said: "There is still a strong city like Toyama Castle in Viet Central. It's OK. Support for a few months, but you can't try your best to make the battle between my family and the Hojo family protracted. Harm to both parties."

"The subordinates guessed that Shi Kang, the government did not necessarily want to make peace, but was forced to fight by the defenders of the main faction in the family. Therefore, if our army showed strong performance and won several victories, then Kang Kang also had reason to persuade his defenders to reopen. League A is in the same league."

"I need to know that the clan is the lord's son-in-law. It is now a fact that my family has occupied Suruga. What reason does the Hojo clan have to restore the powerless Imagawa clan?"

After hearing this, Takeda Shingen thought for a while, and asked, "After the Hojo reconciliation, how do you think about it?"

Takeda Shingen's words are old-fashioned and prudent. As a strategic execution, it must be carried out step by step, and everything must be in service for the implementation of the entire goal.

Li Xiaoyan said: "The peace with the Hojo clan is of course the main premise of Shangluo. Right now the Oda clan is rushing to the west, and in Kyoto, with the righteous name of the Gongfang Hall, commanding the four directions, its power has expanded rapidly, except In addition to Mino and Owari, the five kingdoms of Kinki, Ise, Shima, and Minami Omi were also gradually controlled by the Oda clan. And the enemies they faced were not the strong hands of Uesugi and Hojo. From the heart, weave. The power of the Tian family now lies above the family."

At this time, Li Xiao added: "I heard that the Oda family, in the name of the emperor, let the Sifang daimyo go to Kyoto to meet, but the Asakura family alone did not follow, this Nobunaga's personality will inevitably be attacked. Now Asakura The family is the only force in the vicinity of Kinki that can fight the Oda family. If Asakura loses, then Nobunaga can complete the control of the situation around Kyoto. At that time, it was either the San'in Sanyo road strategy or the directing of troops to Kanto. "

In fact, Li Xiao deliberately emphasized the result. Indeed, in the 13th year of Yongluo, the situation of the Oda family was not very good, but extremely bad. Nobunaga attacked the Asakura family. As a result, the Allied Asai family rebelled against the water, and finally Oda family stayed in Kinzaki. Lose first, then win over Zichuan.

After that, the Honganji monk and Miyoshi trio beat the falling water dog together, causing Nobunaga's embarrassed situation for the first Oda encirclement.

However, in this time of encirclement in history, the Takeda family had a bad life. In the east and north, and Hojo, the Uesugi family smashed and missed the opportunity of Shangluo.

Right now, what Li Xiao can do is to expand the chances of Nobunaga's victory over the Oda family for the second time in history.

Li Xiao's exaggeration of the strength of the Oda family has been deeply recognized by the Takeda family members present here. They are indeed not traversers, and I don't know that Nobunaga's actual life this year is not easy.

However, the speed of the Oda clan’s rise at the moment is indeed amazing. Even the samurai who is the most blindly optimistic about the situation in his clan admits that the current Oda clan’s power is one or two better than the Takeda clan.

"So, Lord Ma Shou meant that after making peace with the Hojo clan, my clan immediately tore up the alliance with the Oda clan and proceeded with the Shangluo move?". It was Baba Nobubo who spoke out. He knew the details of the Oda family very well, so he agreed with Li Xiao's analysis of the strength of the Oda family.

Li Xiao smiled bitterly. Of course it would be best if it could, but the situation did not allow it.

Li Xiao shook his head and said: "Not so, Lord Baba, my opinion is that after making peace with the Hojo clan, my clan restarts the grand strategy of the Uesugi clan previously formulated, and executes the three roads from Etchu, Kita-Shinano, and Nishino Uesugi clan. Strategic plan to attack Echigo."

Li Xiao's opinion is to go to war with the Uesugi family.

Li Xiao added: "At the moment we have captured Suruga and the Far River half-country. If we rush to the west, the Tokugawa family will block us, and we will not be able to threaten the Oda family for a while, and we have to bear the reputation of abandoning the alliance. At the same time, Uesugi Huihu may also take advantage of the fire to rob."

"Under this situation, our family will attack from the two sides of Hojo and Uesugi, and change to a passive situation with Oda, Tokugawa, and Uesugi at the same time. This situation is not allowed."

After a pause, Li Xiao continued to say: "So my opinion is that after making peace with the Hojo clan, we will attack Echihou, suppress, and smash the Uesugi clan. Even if Uesugi clan cannot be destroyed, we will weaken its strength. So in the future, Shangluo At that time, the Uesugi family will not become the biggest threat to the family."

In this way, Li Xiao also had a plan to kill someone with a knife.

It is through the promotion of these three-sided strategy that he eases the risk of facing Uesugi's crusade against the Uesugi family independently this year.

With Li Xiao's current power, to face Uesugi Kenshin independently, there is basically no chance of winning, and only the Takeda family can be dragged into the water.

At that time, if the Takeda family’s three-way attack on Echigo's strategy can be implemented, Uesugi Ken believes that it is difficult to protect himself. At that time, Li Xiao could take the opportunity to enter Echigo, and first annex Shiina’s Shinkawa Prefecture under his own banner and expand his own. strength.

This is Li Xiao's wishful thinking.

Shingen Takeda immediately turned his head to look at the mountain prefecture Changjing on the left and the right. Takeda Shinren said, "Shan prefecture, what do you think of Shinren?"

The right to speak of Changjing in Shanxian County, as the head of the family, is of utmost importance. As a writer, Takeda Nobuyasu has an extraordinary influence at home.

Yamaxian Masaki thought for a while, and said: "Tajima Shou-sama's theory is a risky move. First of all, whether it is whether the family can defeat the Hojo clan, even if it is defeated, how sure the Hojo clan can negotiate a peace is still unknown. At the moment, Tajima Shou-sama all regards Hojo's illness, and Hojo's Kang, and Hojo's internal intentions to discuss and use as an argument for inference, it is too conjectural."

The words of Changjing in Shan County made Li Xiao frowned, but he also lacked evidence, because he inferred both of these events based on historical facts.

"However," Shanxian Changjing changed his conversation and said: "If Tajima Shou-sama's plan can be realized, then my family can quickly withdraw from the eastern battlefield and move on to Shangluo, or the Uesugi family strategy. . So it is very beneficial for the implementation of our strategy. Anyway, even if we fail and cannot make peace with the Hojo family within three months, we have no risk. At most, we will delay the battle from a quick battle to a protracted battle. In terms of the overall situation, in the short term. Within a few years, my family could not do anything to the Hojo family, and the Hojo family could not do anything to their own family. Both of these families knew it well. The so-called battle was pure enthusiasm."

With the support of Yamaxian Masaki, Takeda Shinren, who has always been a peacemaker, also said: "The subordinates have no opinion. UU reading www.uukanshu.com depends on the lord's opinion. But if it can teach the Hojo family a lesson, and Get out, you can try."

With the support of Yamaxian Changjing and Takeda Nobuhiro, the overall situation has been determined.

Takeda Shingen said: "According to Tajima Shou's theory, Hojo will be defeated within three months. However, Hida Etsuchu and the North Shinano Corps do not need to send troops to support."

Hearing Takeda Shingen's words, Li Xiao and Takasaka Masanobu were shocked.

Shingen Takeda waved his hand and said, "You two should be careful to watch out for Uesugi Teru, Hojo, I'm not paying attention yet."

Seeing Takeda Shingen made a final decision, the vassals bowed down, expressing their obedience to the decision.

After everyone got up, many people looked at Li Xiao. The decision that affected their family's grand strategy was actually passed by him under his push.
