Pillars of the Wu family

Chapter 36 News from Takeda

() "Well! Habayashi Nakaro-shoden is also a man who knows soldiers. I was lucky enough to meet him once when I was in Shinano. He is indeed a warrior with extraordinary martial arts!" Kansuke Yamamoto said in this Habayashi Lang will be Murakami Yoshiki, Habayashi Nakaro will be the Tang name of Major General Zuo Konoe. As early as the seventh year of Dayei, Murakami Yoshiki was transferred to Major General Zuo Konoe when he was 27 years old. .

His mother is the daughter of Yoshihiro Shiba, the governor of the Shiba clan, the leader of the third family. General Shinano, in terms of official career, is higher than the Takeda family who is constantly promoting and promoting. He was also a very famous samurai family in Shinano during the Muromachi period.

Kira Manmatsumaru was not surprised that Harunobu Takeda would lose. He still remembered that he seemed to have lost some famous generals of the Takeda family in the Battle of Uedahara. He lost even more than he remembered.

"Itagaki Nobukata, Amari Koyasu, Saima Kawachi Mamoru, Hatsaka Denemon and others were killed in battle. Yokota Takamatsu, Tada Miyori, Hara Toron and others who were directly under the Takeda family's main line were injured. The Murakami army once attacked the Takeda family In this battle, Takeda Harunobu himself was hacked a few times, and in the end it was Yukunaga Kudo and Baba Shinbo who fought desperately to stop him, so Takeda Ozen had no choice but to kill Uedahara." Kansuke Yamamoto was also amazed at the result of this battle.

"How many people died in battle?"

"A total of 1000 or [-] people were killed by the Takeda army in this battle. No wonder the Takeda family hid the news for more than a year. It turned out that their vitality was seriously injured." Yamamoto Kansuke smacked his lips, and could only shake his head and sigh at this number.

Takeda Nobutora has never been defeated. In the early years of the chaos of Aukawa Nobue in the Takeda family, and later the Imagawa clan's army invaded Kai, he was defeated several times, but there was never a defeat as bad as this time. Eight thousand troops were on the spot. More than 1000 people died in the battle, and more than 500 people were injured. One-third of them died in just half a month, and half of the wounded who survived lost their combat effectiveness permanently. Almost everyone died. Hard hit?

"Why did the news come out after almost a year? Is it just trying to cover up this tragic loss? I don't think so!" Kira Wansongmaru felt very strange, and the defeat was so miserable. Unexpectedly, why did the news break out after hiding for another year? What did the Takeda family do during this year?Judging from Takeda Harunobu's evaluation in history, he is not a person who is willing to let go.

"That's true. Last summer, Takeda Daizenden entered Suwa and fought a battle at Shiojiri Pass. He defeated Ogasawara Shinano Mamoru Chotoki who invaded Suwa, and stabilized the chaotic Southern Shinano country."

Ever since June of Astronomy 11, Takeda Harunobu suddenly turned against the Suwa clan's branch, Takato Yoshitsugu, and joined hands to invade Suwa County, which was led by his brother-in-law Suwa Yoshigee. He never thought that his brother-in-law would suddenly turn against the ruthless Suwa Visiting Laizhong, he couldn't stop the two attacks at all, so he had to surrender in the second month under the guidance of Takeda Harunobu.

Then the poor governor of the Suwa family, together with his wife Mi Ni, who had been married for a year, was taken back to Kofu and held in solitary confinement. It took less than a month for the last governor of the Suwa family to die in grief and resentment, but there are rumors that this is Takeda Harunobu ordered Suwa Yoshige to be killed, but the rumors were not accepted because they were false.

Because after Suwa County was conquered, his sister and nephew were useless. You Ni died of depression under house arrest in the second year. Takeda Harunobu deliberately married his brother-in-law in order to take the territory of Suwa County into his pocket. Suwa Yoshigee's concubine, Suwa Goryoto, was the concubine, and gave birth to an heir two years ago and let her inherit the Suwa family business. As for the fate of his nephew Suwa Toomaru, no one knows.

This royal material was born in the third year of Xiangro (1530 in the Western calendar), and has no blood relationship with Takeda Harunobu. Those Suwa people who lost their land don't care about it. In order to discredit the Takeda family, they deliberately fabricated many ridiculous rumors to slander the Takeda family. These are all non-existent things.

What Takeda Harunobu did was a bit excessive, even ruthless beyond reason, but if you think about his character, you don’t find it so strange. He always lured allies into traps for territorial expansion, and conspired with Takeda Harunobu Takato Yoshitsugu didn't end well in the end, and Takato Castle became the residence of Akiyama and Tiger in Ina County.

His natural contempt for the covenant and his ability to grasp people's hearts make him invincible in many battles. This clue has appeared as early as now, but he has not yet fully grown into the hero of Kai. When he reached an obstacle, he then turned to tearing up the covenant and attacking the Imagawa family, tearing up the covenant with the Oda family and attacking Mikawa, etc., also made the best explanation for his character.

"Takeda Kyozhaoden is also a remarkable figure. Back then, my ministers also saw Shinkoden in Kofu and Shinano. The warriors of the Takeda family were really masters of tigers and wolves under his leadership, but I don't know that today, under the leadership of this Takeda Ozen What will happen in your hands." Yamamoto Kansuke's performance surprised Kira Manmatsumaru.

In the description of later generations in his memory, Yamamoto Kansuke should have some grudges with Takeda Nobutora, but judging by his current appearance, he has no such idea at all. It is obviously out of respect to call Takeda Nobutora by Dr. Sakyo’s Tang name Jing Zhaoyin. Kansuke Yamamoto knew that this was an expression of his admiration for Takeda Nobutora's military strategy.

He has studied with Kansuke Yamamoto for several years, and he also knows Kansuke Yamamoto's teaching methods. If he has any questions, he can directly ask: "But the reason for His Royal Highness Shintora's exile seems to be cruelty and bloodthirsty, and he also prefers the second son to abolish the elders and make the younger ones."

"This is a conspiracy." Yamamoto Kansuke sneered, and explained: "When this happened, the subject happened to be eating under Asahina Danba Morimoto's door, and I also learned from Yuanchang that a piece of claw, ten years and five years of astronomy When Takeda Kyoshoden left the battle in Saku County, the envoys of the Takeda family had been visiting Suruga for a long time. The envoys of the Takeda family discussed with the Imagawa family the aftermath of chasing after Takeda Kyoshoden. What he did completely angered the people of Kai, and they wanted to banished him and replaced him with a new governor."

"It turned out to be a conspiracy!" Hearing the explanation of the person involved, Kira Manmatsumaru was not particularly surprised, and said with a curl of his lips: "Takeda Jingzhaoden killed many vassals and nationals with du li identities in order to strengthen the rule, which aroused the disgust of everyone." He panicked, so he teamed up with his son-in-law Harunobu Takeda Ozen to launch an exile? This seems to be exactly the same as what happened to His Royal Highness the sixth generation!"

"Yes! It's exactly the same! The master's idioms are very good! Okochi Tajimaden is very attentive to your teaching!" Yamamoto Kansuke praised, "No matter how much they try to beautify, they can't To cover up the fact that Harunobu Takeda exiled his father, and the people of Takeda exiled the king are a group of rebels who can't wash away their sins."

"They can be exiled once, and they can be exiled many times. Isn't Takeda Harunobu worried that they will be exiled if they are defeated? For example, it is rumored that Takeda Jingzhaoden has always been a favorite of Takeda's Stable Temple." Kira Wansongmaru speculated maliciously. road.

"It is indeed possible, but this way they will bear even more pressure! The ministers thought that Takeda Dianshu would definitely not cooperate with them. After all, exile once has become a 'rebellious minister', and exile a family governor no matter how they argue. It's useless, the people of Kai will lose their reputation as a samurai, and the samurai who lose their reputation will only perish." Kansuke Yamamoto looked at the vast green hills in the distance and the few rays of sunlight falling, and replied calmly.
