Samurai of the Takeda Family

Chapter 54: Master Uncle to Master Nephew

Kenshin Uesugi, the military god, is undoubtedly the eyes of the Hojo family generals, the biggest enemy at present, a fearful and respectable opponent.

   Ken Uesugi believes that he crossed the horizon, Kanto for more than ten years, dozens of battles and undefeated, last year led a 100,000 Kanto coalition forces to besiege Hojo's Odawara Castle. With Hojo's Yasuo, Hojo Tsunari's courage, and the strength of the five-color preparations, he had to shrink the city of Tahara, and did not dare to go out of the city to fight with him.

   It is said that the Kwantung Allied Forces attacked Odawara Castle for a long time and suffered heavy losses. Uesugi Kenshin was furious and ran to a place not far from Odawara Castle to drink alone.

   At that time, the Hojo Army saw the enemy general Kenshin Uesugi sitting on the ground in the city and was close at hand. He immediately fetched iron cannons, bows and arrows, and shot Uesugi Kenshin in turn. But the miracle appeared, no matter how the Hojo family shot, no one hit.

   The Hojo Army was shocked at the moment, and it was said that Kenshin Uesugi had a **** protector, and indeed he was the incarnation of Bishamon.

   That’s why the soldiers of the Hojo clan treated Kenshin Uesugi because of hatred and fear, and fear and awe.

   And it is said that the Samurai of the Takeda family had actually fought with Kenshin Sugi, the incarnation of Bishamonten, and evenly divided the lives. He also saved the Lord Takeda Shingen, and many people suddenly did not believe it. What's more, the other party's identity is special, and it is from Mingguo on the other side of the ocean.

   Everyone turned their eyes to the generals of the Takeda family, searching the past one by one, wanting to see what is so extraordinary about this legendary Ming country samurai.

   Li Xiao put down his wine glass and stood up slowly. Among the Japanese of this era, his height of 185 meters is absolutely outstanding. Therefore, the generals of the Hojo family were dumbfounded after seeing the figure of Li Xiao. Even if the Hojo family was included, there was no such a tall and mighty general in the Hojo family.

   Shangquan Xiuyin was also slightly surprised by Li Xiao's figure, but he didn't pay much attention to his opponent because of this. He was sloppy and looked up and down at Li Xiao immediately, and asked: "Are you the samurai who fought Huihugong on Chuanzhongdao?"

   Li Xiao clasped his fists and saluted, and replied: "It's Li Xiao from the Ming country, I don't know what to say?"

Faced with Li Xiao’s salute, Shangquan Xiuyin turned to hum, shook the wooden knife in his hand, and said: “I don’t know what you can do to withstand Duke Huihu. In this case, fight with me. Look at your depth, maybe the rumors are too exaggerated."

   Okay, this kid doesn't have the strength of a Juggernaut, but he speaks louder than a Juggernaut.

   Facing the opponent's provocation, in everyone's eyes, Li Xiao slowly shook his head and unexpectedly replied: "I refuse to compete with you."

   Suddenly there was a scolding sound from the Hojo generals, and many of the Takeda generals also had embarrassed expressions. Facing challenges and avoiding battles, it was even more embarrassing than being defeated. Only Kansuke Yamamoto, Masayuki Sanada and a few others who know Li Xiao better, don't think so.

   Shangquan Xiuyin also thought that Li Xiao was just shrinking from the battle, and sneered, saying: "What samurai from Ming Dynasty is just a coward."

   Li Xiao snorted softly, and suddenly his complexion sank, and he said solemnly: "You guessed it wrong, I refused to compete with you, not for other reasons."

  Speaking of this, Li Xiao suddenly reached out and pointed to the crowd of Hojo family members, and said loudly: "Because the person I want to fight is Dihuang Hachiman, not you."

   The court was quiet for a while, and suddenly there was an uproar on the Hojo family. I didn't expect that the population was so big that he wanted to challenge the first hero of the Hojo family, Hojo Tsunari.

   Of course, Li Xiao did this to shave Shangquan Xiuyin's face. His move obviously didn't put Shangquan Xiuyin in his eyes, which means you are not worthy of being my opponent. The so-called face must be given to each other. Since the other party is so arrogant and does not give Li Xiao face, Li Xiao also has no need to give others face.

   Facing Li Xiao's challenge, Hojo Tsunaari laughed, before he could answer.

  , seeing Shangquan Xiuyin, he became furious, stopped in front of Li Xiao, and said: "You are presumptuous, and you also challenge the Hall of Eight Banners. If you want to fight, you have to beat me first."

   Li Xiao shook his finger, but Shangquan Xiuyin naturally couldn't understand what it meant. Li Xiao said, "Don't worry, you can compete with your Excellency. I have already thought about it. I will send my subordinates to fight for me."

   "What? Let me compete with your subordinates," Shangquan Xiuyin held the wooden sword in both hands, the veins burst out, and his eyes stared at Li Xiao in resentment, "Can your subordinates beat me?"

   "You will know then."

Li Xiao dropped such a sentence, and ignored the anger at Umiquan Xiuyin. He walked out of the battlefield and found a Takeda family to give a few words, and then walked back into the battlefield and be himself safely. He said to Shangquan Xiuyin indifferently: "Your Excellency, stay safe and restless, my subordinates will be here soon."

   Only Shangquan Xiuyin remained alone, staring at Li Xiao fiercely. Li Xiao looked at the other party and couldn't help shaking his head. It seemed that the son of the sword saint had no cultivation and magnanimity as a sword master, so he could have a sword skill, and his future achievements would be limited. No wonder in the original history, a year later, he died in the second Kokufutai battle between Hojo and Satomi.

Just as one of the three heavenly dogs of Liu Sheng, the son of Yanagi Zongyan, after teaching the sword to his disciples, said: "I can teach you only this. If you want to make greater progress, you must learn from Zen. Enlightenment in it."

   Swordsmanship in Kendo is a strategy to deal with the enemy, while Zen Tao is to improve one's own realm. Swordsmanship can be learned from a master, while Zen Tao must be realized on your own.

   Miyamoto Musashi once summed up his life's kendo as the heart of kendo, like Bitan Shenbaojing! Now that Shangquan Xiuyin's treasure mirror is covered in dust, how can one clearly see the vast world from the Bitan.

   And Li Xiao was sitting on the seat again, facing Shangquan Xiuyin who was staring at him, just smiled faintly.

  While everyone was waiting, a corner of the battlefield soon opened~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Shioka Kazuha walked in slowly. Shioka Yiyu was woken up just as soon as he fell asleep (the ancients went to bed early), so he didn't seem to be very refreshed.

   But as a swordsman, the original cultivation base and tolerance are still there, Shioka Kazuha slowly walked up to Li Xiao, and asked in a salute: "What's your command?"

   Is this the subordinate appointed by Li Xiao to compete with Shangquan Xiuyin? The Hojo family members looked at each other curiously and talked a lot, as if there was no difference in this person. Could it be that this person sent such a subordinate to compete with the famous swordsman of the Hojo family with Izumi Hideyin.

   Li Xiao whispered to Shioka Kazuha. Shioka Yiyu nodded, took off the two knives from his waist and replaced them with wooden knives. Then he walked to the center of the field, bowed Xiuyin Shangquan and bowed, and said, "Please advise."

   Shioka Kazuwa and Ueizumi Nobuzuna have both studied kendo under the school of Tsukahara Buden, so they are considered brothers in the same school. And both of them later became masters of kendo, one created a Yuliu, and the other was the originator of a new Yinliu.

However, Shioka Kazuha is less than 30 years old, and he has not reached the peak of his swordsmanship when he creates a feather in the future. In contrast, Nobuyuki Kamizumi is over fifty years old and has long been famous. Now, his title of "Ueno Yibengun" is even more famous in Kanto.

Although Shioka Ichiha's swordsmanship is not as good as Shangquan Nobuzuna's, but based on seniority, Shioka Ichiwa and Shangquan Xiuyin are about the same age, but Shangquan Xiuyin should also be called a teacher. Okazawa call out Master Uncle.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao looked at Shangquan Xiuyin on the field and sneered secretly, thinking that since this stinky boy is so arrogant, I will let your uncle replace your father, give you a good education and let you know what it is. There is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world.
