Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 381 There is only one person in the world

Yuangui three years.

After Oda Nobunaga burned Mount Hiei, the abbot of Mount Hiei, Prince Kakushufa, fled to Kai.

Takeda Shingen provided protection for Jueshu, and Jueshu appointed Shingen as the monk official of Quan Sengzheng.

The matter of monkhood is the continuation of the Chinese monk system in the Middle Ages of Japan.

From top to bottom, it is divided into three ranks: Sengzheng, Sengdu, and Lawyer, and among Sengzheng, it is divided into three ranks: Great Sengzheng, Sengzheng, and Quan Sengzheng.

Jue forgiveness to designate Takeda Shingen as the right monk is not without an aim. In addition to thanking Shingen for his protection, he also gave Shingen the Buddhist position of guardianship.

Kakushu took advantage of this and urged Takeda Shingen to reinvigorate Buddhism.

Shingen Takeda agreed to Jueshu's request and wrote a letter to Nobunaga, asking Nobunaga to stop fighting and stop obstructing the Dharma. At the end of the letter, he signed the name "Tiantai Quanzheng Shammon Shingen".

After seeing the letter, Nobunaga smiled and signed the letter at the end of the letter as "Sixth Demon King Nobunaga". The sixth day Demon King is among the Dharma, the demon who lives in the sixth day, also known as He Transformed into the Sky, not only has the strongest magic power, but also specializes in destruction. Practitioners become Buddhas.

Nobunaga's move expressed his determination to continue to oppose Buddhism.

At this point, the alliance between the two Takeda and Odas was completely broken.

The marriage of Kikuhime and Nobunaga's son Oda Nobutada was also cancelled.

The news of the breakup of the Takeda Oda Alliance soon spread to the ears of the intentional daimyo.

Suddenly, there was a lot of rumors about Xinxuan's trip to Shangluo.

In the third year of Yuangui, in April, Shingen Takeda dispatched troops from the Kuzuozakikan.

However, Shingen's destination was not westward, but northward.

After the Hojo clan broke the alliance with the Uesugi clan and re-allied with the Takeda clan, and the Hojo clan Yasushi died of illness, Uesugi Kenshin re-entered Stable Bridge Castle and joined the eight famous Kanto Koyama, Satomi, Satake, Yuki, Oda, and Nasu. , Utsunomiya, and Chiba joined forces to fight the Hojo family.

Preparing to attack Hojo's house is unstable.

The leader of the Hojo family, the Hojo clan, worried about the unstable situation, so he asked his father-in-law Shingen for help.

In order to show his support to the alliance, Takeda Shingen was invited by the Hojo clan to lead his army out of Nishiueno to fight Uesugi Kenshin.

This is the second confrontation between Shingen Takeda and Kenshin Uesugi after the battle on Kawasaki Island the year before, and it is also the last confrontation between the two in history.

PS: Actually the time of the confrontation between the two people, in history is Yuangui three years and January.

On both banks of the Tone River in the middle section of Ueno, the two armies of Takeda Uesugi faced each other across the river.

Under the flag of Bizi.

On both sides of Uesugi Kenshin's white silk hood, gray-white temples were faintly exposed, and several wrinkles appeared on his former high spirited face.

Kenshin Uesugi, who swept Kanto back then, even though his hand holding the reins is still strong and his aura is still as firm as a mountain, but after many years of military warfare, he will inevitably show a bit of oldness.

This year Uesugi Kenshin is forty-four years old, and his opponent Kai's Tiger, Shingen Takeda is fifty-two.

Kenshin Uesugi looked at the Takeda Army Honjin under the banner of "Fujirin Volcano", the man riding on the shoulders.

After watching for a long time, Uesugi Kenshin waved his hand and said, "Retreat."

The Uesugi family generals, including King Sung Sung, were surprised when they heard the words.

Shangshan Jingsheng took the lead and said: "My father, but we have yet to fight the Takeda army."

Uesugi Kenshin clamped his horse whip under his ribs, turned his horse's head and said to the generals: "You are worried, we will avoid fighting in front of the Takeda army, and people will think that I am modest and timid."

"Of course not. Six times in the battle of Kawasaka Island, who would dare to underestimate me Echigo in the Takeda army?" Uesugi Keikaku replied boldly. .

Kenshin Uesugi nodded and said, "Exactly, but what happened? After the six battles on Kawanakajima, Shingen has taken Shinano, Ueno, Hida, Etchu, Suruga, Toezhi Land, and I am still stuck in the land of Echigo. In terms of the general situation, I still lose to Xinxuan."

Ken Uesugi sighed with faith in Tianchang, and said: "Naoe, Kakizaki, and Murakami are all famous generals for a while. Unfortunately, I am humble and incompetent. I am tired of you and hurt you on the battlefield."

"Master"

The Uesugi generals quickly persuaded.

Ken Uesugi stopped his hand and said: "It's just a moment of sadness. Right now Xinxuan sits in the land of the eight kingdoms. There is no one in the world except Nobunaga who is against him. If this continues, Xinxuan can go to Luo successfully and complete. Dominate the industry and dominate the world, and even I can only look forward to it when the time comes."

The audience will listen to Uesugi Kenshin's words, and they will be silent.

Perhaps some people in the heart believe that Nobunaga can hinder Xinxuan's Shangluo, but more people are optimistic about Xinxuan's success in Shangluo this time.

This is not because the Takeda clan's power surpassed the Oda clan, it was purely because of Shingen, the world's number one martial artist, and the incomparable cohesive power of the Takeda clan's retainers under the banner of Fenglin volcano.

"Look, everyone, within three years, Xinxuan can complete his hegemony, and then Nobunaga's son will lead Xinxuan."

Speaking of last, as the opponent of Takeda Shingen I, Kenshin Uesugi made this assertion.

Various expressions appeared on the generals of Uesugi's family.

"Lord, the Takeda family has also retired"

When the Uesugi Army retreated, a general pointed to the other side of the river and said.

The two armies actually retreated together in a tacit understanding.

Uesugi Kenshin sat on a horse, looked at the Takeda family's retreating army, and said silently in his heart: "Xinxuan, I am in Kasuga Mountain City. See how you complete the Shangluo dominance. Don't disappoint me."

On the banks of the Tone River, the two armies retreated, leaving only the river flowing empty.

Yuangui three years, April.

Nobunaga led Nobunori Sakuma, Masami Shibata, Mitsuhide Akechi, Takahide Hosokawa, and more than 20,000 troops to the Yamato country to assist the Hatakeyama family that was besieged by Matsuhiro Hideo and Miyoshi.

The Buddhist capital of Nara is the center of Yamato Kingdom, with its Buddhist temples all over the place, and the local dynasty and wealthy people all believe in Buddhism.

Although Oda Nobunaga, who burned Mount Hiei on fire, was regarded by the local tycoons as'the first class in the world without Dharma', Todaiji Temple and Kofukuji Temple, which are guarded by monks and soldiers and supported by many tyrant believers, were afraid of faith. Long's might, surrendered to the Oda family, and cooperated with them to lead the way.

Under the siege of the Oda army and the Yamato family, Matsushige Hidetoshi, the Miyoshi trio were defeated.

Immediately, Nobunaga ordered part of the army, and the newly subjugated Yamato Daimyo Tsutsui Junkei, together besieged the Tamon Mountain Castle in Matsuyuji, and in May, Nobunaga himself led his army back to Gifu.

In July, Oda Nobunaga sent troops from Gifu again, this time the target was Kitaomi.

This time, the Oda family was extremely strong, besieging the Asai family’s main city, Otani Castle, and cut off all traffic.

Omi Eagle Asai Nagamasa was unfavorable in combat, and he did not break through the Oda family's siege, and immediately appealed to the Asakura family for help.

The Asakura clan was afraid of Nobunaga’s army and refused to send troops, so Asai Nagamasa had to send false news to Asakura’s clan, claiming that Nagashima’s Issōzō had already acted to block the passage of Mino Owari. At this time Asakura If you send troops to Omi, you can easily defeat Nobunaga.

Asakura Yoshiki, the head of the Asakura family, was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately led a 15,000 army to send troops, but after arriving, Asakura Yoshiki found that he was fooled by the Asai family.

The morale of the Asakura family fell sharply, and immediately retreated to defend themselves.

In August, at this time, the powerful retainer of the Asakura family, former Poggi Yu, Tomita Nagasaki was returned by the Oda Army.

The Asakura army did not fight by itself, and the situation of the Asai family was even more unfavorable. The Oda family took the opportunity to build a sub-city, Toromaeyama Castle, on all sides of Otani Castle. The large defensive sub-cities group completely blocked the entrance and exit of the Oda family.

Facing the powerful Oda Army, Asakura and Asai were destroyed just as soon as the two Patriarchs wrote letters to Kai's Takeda Shingen for help, hoping that the other side could send troops at this moment to save them.

Otherwise, Asakura and Asai will be defeated, and the Oda family will no longer have the worries of the west, and can rest assured to use their troops to the east.

And at this time Ashikaga Yoshiaki could not sit still. The encircling net he provoked against Nobunaga would be torn apart. If so, Nobunaga would be able to play him unscrupulously between his palms, and now look at the world. , Only one person can stop Nobunaga.

So Ashikaga Yoshiaki once again wrote a secret letter to Shingen, begging Takeda Shingen to have this opportunity to go to Los Angeles. They promised that if the Takeda family sent troops, he would mobilize all forces and stand on the opposite side of the Oda family.

At the same time, Song Yongxiu, who was heavily surrounded by the Oda family in Domon Mountain City, also wrote a letter asking Shingen to send troops.

The master of Ishiyama Hongan Temple, Hongan Temple, wrote a letter to Shingen, begging him to protect the Dharma and eradicate the enemy of the Buddha Oda Nobunaga, in order to report the burning of Mount Hiei.

For a while, Shingen Takeda carried the hope of the world, and everyone turned their eyes to Kai, hoping that Shingen Takeda could go to Los Angeles at this moment and fight against the powerful Oda Nobunaga at this time to completely eradicate this enemy of Buddha.

In contrast, Kai was peaceful at the moment.

Takeda Shingen, who returned from Ueno, remained motionless. This scene made many people anxious and awake at night.

Yuangui three years, September.

In the Oda Army and Asai, the Asakura Army was still in the Northern Omi War.

In the Hojo home of Odawara Castle in Kanto, it is peaceful at the moment, and the climate is approaching autumn.

Pedestrians in the town have already added a layer of clothing to resist the cold of early autumn.

At this time, riding a fast horse from the east, galloping into the castle town.

In a temple in the castle town, the diplomatic monk Motogo, who lived in Odawara-no-cho with Takeda’s parents, was in charge of communicating information between the two.

Ben Wu is a monk of the Linji sect and a proud disciple of Kuaichuan Shaoxi, the abbot of Huilin Temple.

Before the horse raced to the gate of the temple, the man on the horse was also an acquaintance of the temple. There was no need to report to the monk at the door. The other party would directly keep the horses in the monks' custody, and he entered the gate to see Ben Wu.

As soon as the other party saw Ben Wu~www.wuxiamtl.com~, he took out a letter and handed it to the other party.

Ben Wu was shocked when he saw the surface of the envelope.

The seal of the envelope was covered with fire lacquer, and it was intact, and the letter read "Dr. Zuojing personally".

Dr. Sakyo is the official position of the Hojo clan, the current head of the Hojo clan, that is to say, this is a personal letter written to the Hojo clan.

And the person who wrote the letter was Takeda Ozen Shingen.

This comprehension didn't dare to neglect, so he changed into a monk's clothes and walked directly out of Odawara Castle.

After Ben Wu passed through, he was immediately received by the Hojo clan. Hongo handed the letter to the Hojo Clan on the spot, and the other party took out the letter and looked at it. He couldn't help but shake his hands.

After a long time, the Hojo clan said slowly: "Father-in-law, I really want to send troops to Los Angeles."
