A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Takeda Harunobu is a man who kills people and kills Buddhas when he blocks Buddha. When his father was exiled, most of Kai Country was shaky and poor. Now it spans four countries and its strength has more than tripled.

Although those young men that Hosokawa Harugong talked about were killed by the tiger father. But the butt determines the head. Even if you arrange for someone close to you to inherit the family of a young person, no matter how close the person is, they may become a young person one day.

That is to say, Takeda Harunobu can steal and win, and everyone who follows him can benefit for the time being, so it seems that everyone is united and working together in the same boat. You, Takeda Harunobu, ate the meat, and all of us Chinese people shared the soup. The soup was still hot and had big bones in it.

Especially when entering Suruga Country, five temples were burned down. Starting from Shimoyama Castle, we robbed Sunfu Castle and killed many Suruga Imagawa samurai along the way. Having obtained both money and land, the people of Jia Fei were extremely satisfied.

Therefore, people who are in the 25th generation should also consider the pros and cons of being able to eat large pieces of meat after being rebellious. If you are in the opposite direction in the future, you might as well be drinking soup with Takeda Harunobu, then you are a 25th generation!

It is better to continue to be a "loyal" thug, have food and drink, and live a happy life. Let Takeda Harunobu block it if the sky falls. They can wait and sell it at a later price.

Therefore, Xiao Si later attacked the rebellious Kiso clan, and the 20,000-strong army came as soon as he called. But when the Oda clan really sent troops to fight, the group immediately became like beasts and dispersed. Except for Gaoyuan City Nishina Shengxin, who was able to gather thousands of troops to defend the town, the others either surrendered or dispersed.

Historically, when Yoshinobu rebelled, a crowd of people followed him, showing the Takeda clan's "father-son warmth". The frightened Takeda Harunobu asked all Takeda samurai to re-submit their oaths afterwards, and the retainers group was in chaos.

Therefore, Yamauchi is temporarily adjusting his thinking and does not want to kill Takeda Harunobu immediately. Rather, it is to discredit him from the high ground of public opinion and morals, divide him from the inside, and disintegrate him. Although this will definitely take longer, it is obviously safer and safer.

As for how Yamauchi Yoshikatsu chooses between these two paths, I don't know. If he is eager to fight Takeda Harunobu to establish his authority, it is reasonable. While he was chatting and laughing, it was also a good way to put Takeda in trouble both internally and externally.

In Koheita's memory, when Takeda Harunobu was in power, the people of Kai were very stable for the most part, and no large-scale civil strife occurred.

Therefore, he still held a certain wait-and-see approach to Hosokawa Harumiya's suggestion that just spreading rumors about Kai's instability would deter Takeda Harunobu from taking any rash actions.

Of course, Xiaopingta also knew clearly how powerful Takeda Harunobu was. He should have no such thing as loyalty to others, even his younger brothers Kasaka Danmasa and Norimu. It's more like the so-called loyalty between superiors and subordinates, rather than that kind of friendship.

Of course, we don’t rule out the kind of people who really sleep with each other, maybe there will be true love! After all, I slept with him!

However, Koheita felt that mere rumors were not enough to shake and influence Takeda Harunobu's judgment. It was best to make some circumstantial remarks while adding rumors. For example, when purchasing food from Kai, it is best to destroy it on site instead of transporting it to other countries. It would be more useful to let Takeda Harunobu find no where to go than to give it to someone secretly.

After all, if someone wanted to rebel in Kai, it would be very difficult and not easy to raise an independent army to overthrow Takeda Harunobu. However, it is very realistic to gather hundreds or even thousands of people, defend the city, and wait for reinforcements from external parties hostile to the Takeda clan.

As for Cage City, it mainly depends on troops and supplies.

Not to mention the military strength, the supplies are things like food, salt water, swords, guns and ammunition.

If rumors first spread in Kai's country, and then it was discovered that someone was buying grain on the market and disappeared, it might make Takeda Harushin suspicious.

Although it costs some money, it is worth it to keep Takeda Harunobu internally turbulent for a while.

"What you said makes sense." Isshiki Gongnai also felt that he had spent hundreds of guan and bought thousands of dan of grains and sunk them in the river. The people buying food dispersed and fled back to the mountains, which would definitely make people suspicious.

"Koheita, what else can you do?" Hosokawa Harugong has watched the troubled times of the Wu family and the Warring States for more than sixty years, and has a much deeper understanding of human nature than Xiaoheta.

Although he felt that the spread of rumors would make Takeda Harunobu wary, but if there were more ways to make Takeda Harunobu suspicious, he would also be happy to see it happen.

"If you import bows, arrows, swords, and spears to Kai, it will look deliberate. If you expose flaws, it will not be beautiful." Kodaira shook his head, not ready to tease Takeda Harunobu in depth.

…

"Dianwu, I heard that the commander of Kasugayama is planning to march to Kanto again."

Takeda Harunobu, who was far away in Kai, was not idle either. Taking advantage of the temporary military training in winter, he also took action frequently.

"Many of the powerful people from the Kanto countries have received imperial letters from their leaders and are preparing to go to war as ordered." Takeda Nobushige experienced the Battle of Kawanakajima Hachimanhara, and now his whole person is more "mellow" and his momentum seems different.

"There is news from King Maru that Kaishu, the leader of Kasugayama, is very likely to besiege Kawagoe (there is Ogidani Uesugi Kensheng in the city), and I hope to send troops to rescue my brother." The Hojo family has always been a good son-in-law of Takeda Harunobu, so of course he is ready to rescue.

"Brother, it seems that there is no need to be too anxious. The family has sent people to China and Vietnam. I think there will be results soon. It is difficult to manage the family affairs, so why go to Guandong?"

"Oh? We already have some clues about China and Vietnam?" "There are indeed some clues. Brother, don't be too anxious."

"In addition, we should organize our troops as soon as possible in the spring so as not to give Takanashi Kaizu a chance to breathe. As the enemy becomes stronger, we become weaker." Takeda Nobushige suggested directly.

"It must be so. If Commander Kasugayama can hold him back, he only needs to hold back the Yamauchi child. How can Takanashi Kaijin, a mere man, defeat our 20,000-strong Army?" Takeda Harunobu seemed to have a plan in mind.

The two Takeda brothers looked at each other and smiled, showing faces like old foxes.

…

"By the way, Heita-chan, are you familiar with General Kinoshita Hideyoshi of the Oda clan?" Isshiki asked suddenly.

"Yes, I have known Fujikichiro for many years, and we often exchange letters."

The last time Tokichiro came to ask the Kiso District to decentralize wooden fences for him to use in building a city in Mugu, it was Koheita who personally introduced him. Everyone in the Yamauchi family knew that Koheita and Kinoshita Hideyoshi had a personal relationship, which was normal.

"Then you may want to make a trip. His Highness intends to maintain peace with Oda Dansho for the time being."

"Of course it's okay." What did Koheita think it was? It turned out that he was going to stabilize Oda Nobunaga and maintain peace between the two sides.

"Don't worry, I heard that Oda Tansheng's wife has no children, so the son born to the Ikoma family is the most precious. It is said that the Ikoma family has a daughter, and Oda Tansheng also likes her very much."

"Huh? Your Highness intends to get married?" Of course Koheita knew that Oda Nobutada, the son of Mrs. Ikoma, was the most loved by Oda Nobunaga. Aiwujiwu, the daughter she gave birth to, was also doted on by Nobunaga.

"Your Highness, the young master, is only two years old (virtual age), so there is no rush. You can go to His Highness Owari's house to inquire about it." Isshiki Miyauchi waved his hand, meaning that Yamauchi Yoshikatsu only meant this, but the child is too young, that is, Ask.

In fact, the main reason is that Uesugi Teruhu has no daughter. If he had a daughter, he would definitely marry Uesugi Teruhu. Nowadays, the Uesugi family has no little girl, the Takeda family is hostile, the Hojo family is hostile, and the Oda family is the only one who can be considered a leader nearby.

"Okay, I know, I will set off immediately after His Highness confirms the order." Xiao Pingtai did everything he could.

"By the way, Oda Tansei has more than one daughter. What is the name of the daughter of Mrs. Ikoma that His Highness is interested in?" Koheita asked casually.

"It is said that it is Oda Gotoku."
