Samurai of the Takeda Family

Volume Two: Shinano Storm

------------

Chapter 422 The letter grows up

Although the voice of Takeda's diplomat, Tomohiro, was peaceful, he was very tough when he spoke. There was no third possibility.

Hearing that at this point, in the entire hall, dozens of Hatoyama family members below Hatoyama Yoshiki, the head of the Hatoyama family, including Chang Xulian, Yusuo Tsutsumitsu, etc., are silent, without saying a word.

There was no one who retorted the whole house.

For the powerful Takeda at the moment, Noto cannot resist it at all.

At this time, Changxu, who is located under Hatakeyama Yoshiki, slowly said: "Please allow us to discuss this matter. Master has worked hard, so please take a short break."

"In that case, the poor monk waits for the decision."

After talking, Zhihong flicked the monk's robe and exited the room.

After the opponent left, Yoshiki Hatayama looked helplessly at Chang Xuren and Yusuke Tsukumi, and asked: "The main force of the Takeda army is pressing down, and the city of Suemori has been lost, and the main force of the navy has been destroyed. What should you do? How to deal with it? Is it to fight or make peace, or come up with a decision early!"

Yusuke Tsukumi glanced at Chang Xulian and said to Hatakeyama Yoshiki: "Master, the Takeda family is the famous Genji family, and the Kai Legion is the most invincible lion in the world. If you can fight with the power of Noto, you will undoubtedly hit the stone with a pebble."

Hatayama Yoshiyuki squeezed his hand. Although he was a puppet lord, he didn't want to see Noto Hatayama's destruction by his hand.

Changxu repeatedly said: "Before this point, even though Takeda is strong, it is impossible to use all his strength in Hokuriku. In my opinion, at most, he only needs to face one Hida Yuezhong Legion."

Yu Zuo Xuguang sneered, and said: "Yes, but one Hida Yuezhong Legion is enough. Its commander, Li Danma Shou, is a rival of Hokuriku and Uesugi Kenshin. He almost took the flight on his own. Sa, more than half of Yuezhong, how about your Excellency than Kenshinko, how about Zibi Shibata's repairs? How about Shinbozong's right door lieutenant? How about Shiina Yasuyin?"

"If you want to burn all jade and stone, I will never accompany you!"

Hearing the words, Chang Xu suddenly started to pull out the Taishou from his waist and shouted: "Before the jade and stone are burned, do you try my long family's sword first!"

Yu Zuo Xuguang also faced each other, saying: "Chang Xulian, in front of the main hall, you should not be too presumptuous."

In fact, Yoshiyuki Hatyama, who was less than what he had done before, was already so frightened that he flexed his legs at the moment Changxu Lian was preparing to do it.

The servants of the Hatyama family watched the two big brothers in the house have a dispute, and they stepped forward to pull them apart as persuasion.

Long continued to close the sword and stand, looking across the crowd, saying: "War is not necessary. Fighting is not good after all. I mean you can surrender Takeda on the surface and surrender the hostages, but in fact you still keep it. What do you think about the autonomy of my Hatayama family in Noto?"

All the retainers nodded their heads after these words, and they didn't want to subdue Takeda so quickly. The opinions of the vast majority of them were still to wait and see. Takeda and Oda competed for the outcome of the world.

Yu Zuo Xuguang sneered and said, "I'm afraid the Takeda family will not agree."

"You have to try it before you know." Chang Xu replied with a sneer.

While the retainers were discussing the details of how to subdue the Takeda family, suddenly an envoy hurriedly entered the castle tower.

He held an urgent letter and handed it directly to Chang Xulian, not the lord Yoshiki Hatyama.

However, Hatoyama's family is accustomed to the irregularities. After Changxu Lian read the letter, his face became more joyful, and finally he said: "Takeda is not afraid!"

After speaking, Chang Xu glared at You Zuo Xuguang, his eyes full of confidence.

The retainers didn't know what exactly was in the letter and how happy Chang Xulian was, but it was definitely not good news for the Takeda family.

"Shoot me out of the city from the diplomatic monk of the Takeda family and the entourage!"

Long and sternly shouted to his subordinates.

But the other party obviously didn't react, and hesitated.

"Hold on, don't be impatient..."

Yuzuo Xunguang just spoke, and Chang Xuan immediately asserted: "The Oda clan defeated the main force of the Asakura clan at Togenzaka. Asakura Yoshiki, the head of the Asakura clan, was killed by the same clan Asakura Kekikag, and the Asakura clan is now dead. , Echizen, Wakasa is already owned by the Oda family!"

"What, the famous Asakura was destroyed for Oda overnight!"

Like boiling oil dripping into clear water, the Hatakeyama retainers were in an uproar.

"Not only the Asakura family, but the Oda Army has already surrounded Otani Castle a lot, and will launch a general offensive soon, and the Asai family of Nanomi will also follow behind the Asakura family."

Changxu even held the letter paper and said loudly: "Everyone is still wondering, Asakura Asai has been destroyed, and who else can stop the Oda bomb from taking the world. The Honganji in Kaga is just a mob. If Takeda dares In the attack on Noto, we can ask for help from the Oda family at any time. His Royal Highness will lead the main force to come to Hokuriku to rescue us."

The continued remarks made all the retainers nod their heads. If the Hatakeyama family hesitated between Takeda and Oda before, then as Nobunaga attacked Echizen, the situation was quite clear.

Although Oda is stronger than Takeda at the moment, it is too far from Hokuriku and has to pass through Nanomi River. Echizen and Kaga can reach Noto in the three places, so it is regrettable.

Now Minami Omi, Echizen, and Wakasa are all owned by Oda, not only adding nearly a million stone heights to the Oda family, but the power of Nobunaga has expanded again, but also has enough influence in Hokuriku.

The occurrence of this situation caused the Noto retainers to have sufficient reasons to make a choice between Takeda and Oda.

In July, it was already extremely hot.

Li Xiao, who was in Muzhou City, was already feeling dry, especially after the news that the Asakura family had been destroyed and that Echizen was occupied by Oda, Li Xiao's anxiety became even more intense.

At this moment, Li Xiao not only felt a little helpless, but also knew that the negotiations with Noto would only end in failure, so it was destined to be a battle.

Li Xiaoxin felt that he had worked hard enough, but he did not expect to be a step slower. Nobunaga was one month earlier than in history, and the three powerful opponents of Ashikaga, Asai, and Asakura were all in one breath to destroy the situation. All collapsed.

Only a few months after Xinxuan's death, the situation in the world was reversed.

Moreover, Nobunaga's counterattack was so violent, just attacking Asakura, such a thunderous method was enough to shock the world.

The daimyo who participated in Nobunaga's encirclement at the time, the anger at Nobunaga's revenge under their eyes, could not help but be frightened. I don't know the direction that Nobunaga will point his sword next. Who will be the next turn?

Li Xiao will be deeply jealous of Nobunaga. At this moment, he has no way out and can only move forward step by step.

Must race against time, must race against Nobunaga, Nobunaga is already preemptive, and now Li Xiao can only win Sado and Noto as soon as possible to have the strength to help Katsurai as soon as possible and win the final battle between Takeda and Oda. .

The fleet that is currently attacking Sado had already set off last month under the leadership of Masazu Mukai and Sun Bingbei Chiga. Marine communications are inconvenient. Today, only accurate news is available, and Li Xiao can only wait patiently for the news.

On the other hand, since the battle of Noto is inevitable, Li Xiao can only do his best now.

Right now, after the diplomatic monk who went to Noto returned, Li Xiao was ready to enter Noto, but before that, Li Xiao welcomed a number of uninvited guests.

In the rudimentary castle tower in Muzhou City.

As the representative of the Yexiangzong forces, Liangyushan, the abbot of Shengxing Temple Honganji Xianrong, the abbot of Ruiquan Temple Honganji Lianqin, and the official Qililai of Kaga Yixiangzongbo got up to meet Li Xiao in the city on Monday.

Their trip was originally in a rush. They originally planned to go to Chengsheng City to find Li Xiao directly, but when they learned that Li Xiao was in Muzhou City, they immediately turned around.

When these three saw Li Xiao, all of them looked sad.

At that time, Hongan Temple Xianrong squeezed out a hint of joy, and said to Li Xiao: "Amitabha Buddha, but Lord Ma Shou, your demeanor remains the same as you were in the past."

Li Xiao had already guessed the purpose of these three people, so he didn't plan to be too enthusiastic to receive them, so he said flatly, "Master, you're welcome."

After the three of them sat down, they said some unnutritious polite words. During this period, Lian Qin kept winking at Xian Rong, but Xian Rong seemed to be a little embarrassed, and the words reached his lips and swallowed his mouth again.

In the end, Qili Lai Zhou couldn't restrain himself, and said first, "Master Tajima Shou, you know the destruction of the Asakura family."

Li Xiao watched and paid attention to these Qili Laizhou for a long time, this person Lai Zhao in Xiajian and instructed Kaga Yixiangzong, his status is lofty.

Regarding Qili Lai Zhou's words, Li Xiao nodded and said: "I just heard the news."

Qili Lai Zhouchang sighed and said: "Although Asakura is the world's enemy of the Kaga monks like me, the Patriarch of Asakura for several generations can be said to be a respectable opponent, but I did not expect it to be defeated by Yoshiyuki. The poor monk thought This is really sad."

Li Xiao heard this person's words, and felt that the other party had a bit of mind, and said: "Yixing has a fate together, this is undesirable."

Hongan Temple Xianrong listened to Li Xiao's words ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and put his hands together and said: "The words of Lord Ma Shou have deep Zen principles. Although you do not believe in Buddhism, you are also a fellow of my Buddhism!"

Lianqin gave Xianrong a blank look at hearing it, and didn't know if it was annoyed by the other party's pedantry, or if he interjected Qili Laizhou's rhetoric.

Li Xiao saw Lianqin with Xianrong's expression in his eyes, smiled slightly, and said modestly: "The master has passed the award."

At this time, Qili Lai Zhou said aloud: "The Ming country’s saying is that the Asakura family is dead, the Asakura family is wiped out, and Echizen has been reduced to Nobunaga’s hand. The barrier to my Kaga has been lost. Compared to the Asakura family, Nobunaga Obviously it is my enemy of Buddhism. Its notoriety of the sixth day demon king is well known in the world, but Nobunaga does not restrain him, but instead calls himself and reveals his determination to oppose Buddhism. This is really arrogant."

"I, in Hokuriku Hongan Temple, follow the imperial text of the Lord of the Lord, and join the Buddhism disciples in the world to fight against the Buddha and the enemy Nobunaga. Even if we fight, the last person will not shrink back. So I hope Li Danma Shou can recite this. Help us defend the Dharma and get rid of evil spirits."

Qili Lai Zhou's words were just and stern words, and Li Xiao just sneered secretly after hearing this, and now he had a big hat on his head.
