Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 479 Noto Guardian

At the time Shibata Katsura expressed great concern about Takeda’s Li Xiao retiring.

At this time, a samurai hurried to the temple and reported to Oda Shinta: "Report to the lord, Matsuhiro Hideo has colluded with Shishan Hongan Temple, and raised troops at Shingui Mountain City and raised the flag of rebellion!"

"What?" Oda Nobuya was taken aback, and said: "Matsuhashihide... is the other way around again?"

It's true that the rebellious boy of Matsuhiro Hideo has betrayed the Miyoshi family and conspired against the Ashikaga family. In addition, the current owner, the Oda family, has also rebelled twice.

The samurai cried out and replied: "It is said that Matsushige Hidetoshi heard that Harada-sama, after the battle died in Nagasasa, the Yamato country guarded no one, so he rebelled within the colony. He made a condition that his family would protect Yamato. Granted to the Matsunaga family and expelled the Tsutsui family from Yamato, otherwise he will join forces with Honganji to seize the rule of the family in Kinki!"

"Asshole, never agree to it," Oda Nobuada reacted to his anger from the beginning, and said strongly: "Matsunaga is testing the bottom line of his family. At this time, he must not give in, otherwise he will give him all the Oda family. , Can't satisfy his ambition."

"Yes," Kawajiri Hidetaka, who was seen in hindsight, saw Oda Nobunaga deal with the matter with a certain nobunaga demeanor, and immediately echoed: "For a rebel like Matsunaga, we can only use strong means. Suppress, otherwise there will be a second Songnaga and a third Songnaga."

"However, during the Nagashino battle, our army's Kinki Army and Ise Army suffered heavy casualties and needed a long period of time to recover. What are the measures to suppress Song Yongxiu now?" It was Nobunaga's younger brother Oda Shinbao who raised the question. .

Oda Shinbag's opinion made Oda Nobuya hesitate. He looked at the newly appointed Kinki Army Commander Mitsuhide with a plea for help, and asked, "Hyuga Mamoru, can you have any suggestions?"

Akechi Mitsuhide smiled slightly and said: "Returning to the lord, Song Yongxiu’s rebellion is not to be feared. Song Yongxiu and Tsutsui Junkei have been fighting for the control of Yamato country for a long time. The two are mortal enemies. We need to deal with Songnaga. The power of Qing will do."

"However, the immediate task at the moment is not to suppress Song Yongxiu's rebellion, but to lead a large army into Kyoto to suppress other eager names. As for Hongan Temple, I can use the power of the public family to let the court come forward and temporarily make peace with Hongan Temple. ."

Hearing Akechi Mitsuhide’s confident answer, Oda Nobuada couldn't help being overjoyed, saying: "Hinata keeps this word, I can rest assured, so please, please take your pains and go to Kyoto immediately."

"Yes, Lord." Michiko Mitsuhide replied cleanly, with a faint smile on his face.

"Akechi Mitsuhide sits in Kinki and presides over the war against Honganji Temple, so I feel relieved." After Akechi Mitsuhide stepped back, Oda Nobuada spoke long.

At this time, Shibata Katsuya also said: "Lord, then I will also return to Echizen, taking advantage of the moment when Li Xiao retires, attacking Kaga, aggressively Hokuriku, and doing my best to announce Wu Tianxia for the Lord."

Then Kazuki Takikawa and Hideyoshi Hashiba also said goodbye.

Watching the four people leave one after another, Oda Nobuya sat on the main hall for a long time without saying a word. At this time, Kawajiri Hidetaka said from the side: "Master, Shibata has a high self-esteem. At the bottom of his eyes, the Zuo Palace Hall can hold him down while he is still alive, but right now it seems that he doesn't put the lord in his eyes."

As if Kawajiri Hidetaka's thoughts were on his mind, Oda Nobuya tightened his waistcoat and said: "You are right, this person has always been arbitrary, and you have seen it before you can agree to his decision. Don't allow others to have any objections to his decision. Such a person is afraid that it will be the second Songjiu show in the family in the future!"

Kawajiri Hidetaka nodded and said, "It's a pity, Shibata is not Li Xiao after all."

At sunset, Gifu Castle stands above the Nouo Plain.

The army with aqua-colored bellflower-patterned flags is preparing to march in the night from Gifu Castle towards Kinki.

Akechi Mitsuhide, wearing a puppet, sat on the horse and looked back at the striking white five-story guardian of Gifu Castle.

Akechi Mitsuhide held a horse whip and watched the white castle tower in silence for a long time. After a long time, he said in a deep voice, "Nobunaga is finally dead. This world may belong to the Toki clan in the future."

After speaking, Akechi Mitsuhide turned his horse back, waved his whip, and shouted: "Enter Kyoto!"

At the same time, in a side hall in Gifu City.

A thin young samurai was sitting in front of Hashiba Hideyoshi.

This person is the old Kuroda Rushui who came to negotiate with the Oda family on behalf of the Kodera family.

Hearing Kuroda Rushui, he slowly said: "The Maori family sits on ten countries and has a strong military strength. The Maori two rivers, Kobayagawa, Takashi, and Yoshikawa Motoharu, are both talents in the world. Please forgive me for speaking out. In the next look, if the Oda family only sends a corps of the former guards to challenge the Maori, then it is still considered that they have never been to Gifu."

Hearing Kuroda Rusui said this, Hashiba Hideyoshi couldn't help laughing and patted his thigh with his rough right hand.

Under Kuroda Rushui’s surprised gaze, Hashiba Hideyoshi stretched out his hand to himself and said confidently: "Master Kuroda, Hideyoshi is thirty-nine this year. Twenty years ago, I couldn’t even be a samurai. I know, but today I can sit in this Gifu city, as the commander of the Oda clan army, and keep abreast of the daimyo."

"I say this, not because you imagined the arrogance of the lower-ranked people who made it for a while, nor did you want to boast, but I want to say that there is nothing impossible, just like twenty years ago, I don't know whether I can become a samurai tomorrow. "

When Kuroda Rushui heard Hashiba Hideyoshi say this, he looked at the other person again with a serious face, and said with a smile: "Master Chikuzen, really a confident person."

"It's the same with your Excellency. You were able to persuade all the ministers to vote for Oda instead of Maori. This shows that you are an ambitious person. You are more optimistic that the Oda family can take the world. And I Hideyoshi. They are also ambitious people. Ambitious people should cooperate with ambitious people. Kuroda-sama, can you follow me to create greater achievements?"

Hearing what Hashiba Hideyoshi said, Kuroda Rusui thought about it for a while, then bowed down and said, "Although it is still very adventurous, I, Kanbei Kuroda, and the Kodera family, please ask Mr. Chikuzen for everything."

After receiving this as one of the two guards of the world, who is as famous as Takenaka Hanbei, and after the warring states famous military division Kuroda Rusui cast his effect, Hashiba Hideyoshi showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Kai, 躅躅崎館.

Ten days have passed since the meeting of the Takeda family to determine the ownership of the new governor of the Takeda family.

In these ten days, many changes occurred in the Takeda family.

After the meeting, Nobuto Takeda, the old governor of the Takeda family, fell into bed with a gas illness.

At the meeting, Li Xiao, who was in the best position with Takeda Nobuhiro, decided to dismiss all duties from him and declared that he would let the monk superintendent.

This latter incident undoubtedly caused an uproar in Takeda's home.

The samurai in Takeda's family admired Li Xiao not hesitating to contradict Nobuto Takeda, against the order of the shogunate, to help defeat Lai's youngest son.

This is a samurai who should abide by loyalty. For a samurai, there is nothing more worthy of noble character than completing the master's entrustment and loyalty to the master's family.

Li Xiaoning should not only be the elder of this writer, but also insist on his own opinions. This move is obviously a model for the time being.

For the past ten days, many young Samurai from the Takeda family have been waiting in front of Li Xiao’s house day and night, hoping to see Li Xiao, and persuading him not to make such a decision to retire when he is in his prime.

However, since the meeting that day, Li Xiao has been at home, behind closed doors, no one is seen, let alone these samurai, even the old officials such as Baba, Sanada, and Takasaka have all been closed doors.

Li Xiao's decision in this way is obviously a more resolute expression of his determination to retire, which makes the samurai in the family more anxious.

Every day in front of Li Xiao's house, there is a crowded city, hundreds of samurai from his own family gather outside, hoping that Li Xiao can take his life back.

There are even samurai who are prepared to cut their abdomen to remonstrate, hoping that Li Xiao will change his decision. Fortunately, Li Xiao stationed close to the outside of the gate, and discovered that this act prevented him from cutting his abdomen at the door of Li Xiao's house on the spot.

Of course, this series of radical actions has increased the speculation of some people. They believe that Li Xiao’s actions were a way of selling fame and seeking fame, and even deliberately staying behind closed doors. Let the family offer greater conditions in exchange for his comeback.

Everyone knows that the current situation of the Takeda family is indispensable for Li Xiao's confidant.

As a result, Takeda's fall to Lee and the support of Lee's two rows became controversial, and the two sides evolved into a battle of words.

But for Li Xiao, who returned to his home and reunited with Yumi Oba and Li Zheng's family, none of this was in his worries.

Afternoon.

In the courtyard of Li Xiao's house, Li Xiao held a large wooden spear with a bar in his hand and went to the tip of the gun, and confronted both Li Zheng and his son.

Under the scorching sun, both father and son were shirtless, sweating profusely.

The two faced each other for a long time. Suddenly, Li's face froze and killed him with a gun.

Li Xiao dodged sideways and avoided Li Zheng's gun point, then reversed the bar of the gun and tripped him to the ground.

Li Zheng breathed heavily and said: "My father, in terms of marksmanship, I am far from your opponent. Why don't we compete with archery!"

Li Xiao heard the words and laughed ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ stepped forward and grabbed his son's hand, helped him stand up, and said: "Competing spears is not to win or lose, but to sharpen your marksmanship. In Wuyi One Door, you are not as good as I am."

Li Zheng retorted: "That's not the case. If I hold a bow and my father is holding a gun, and the distance between the two is more than 50 meters, my chances of winning are even greater!"

Li Xiao slowly shook his head, just about to say something, and at this time a warrior outside the door came to report and said: "Master, the ambassador of the Gongfang Hall is asking to see you outside!"

"Kongfang Hall! Ashikaga Yoshiaki!"

Li Xiao was slightly surprised, and asked, "What can I do if he comes to see me?"

The samurai replied: "Listen to the words of the emissary, the Lord Gongfangdian, who intends to grant the lord the role of guardian of Noto, and ask the lord to see him."

Noto guards!

Li Xiao slowly took a breath. This gift Ashikaga Yoshiaki gave is not a small one. It is so polite to others, I don't know what he wants from me.
