It is already a big victory for Kagawa Tadaji to change his mind, and the two roads from Takayama Castle to Sakurato Castle and Matsukura Castle are quite easy to walk, and the distance is not very far, adding up to seventy or eighty thousand is about the same.

As for the road to Fangka City, although the distance is farther, it is not too difficult to repair, and it will probably take seventy or eighty thousand yuan, so that a total of about 150,000 yuan will be needed, and it can still be reluctantly accepted, as for the people who build the road, there is no need to worry, there is labor in the Hida country, so as long as there is enough money, it is not difficult to complete it in three years.

"In this battle, although the family won the most victorious victory, but the loss is undoubtedly huge, in order to meet the future battle, so I decided to select young and strong people from the territory, and the others are added to the various armies, Nakamura One Clan, the primary election is still left to you to complete."

"It is the lord, and his subordinates will live up to the trust of the lord." Nakamura Kazushi hurriedly replied.

"Alright, if there's nothing else to do, let's break up." After speaking, I saw the clan stand up and walk quickly towards the inner room.

That night, I saw a team of nearly 1,000 people from east to west straight to Takayama Castle, this team was wearing a ninja scarf on their heads, dressed in black, and at a glance they knew that this was a ninja army, and this team was the wind demon ninja brought back from Sagami by Wasuka Masakatsu.

Behind these ninjas, they all carried a small burden, and some of the thinner ninjas were even bent over by the burden on their backs, and they had to bow down and continue to move forward.

But although they were tired, their hearts were full of joy. Especially the dozen or so shinobi who walked in the front, from the moment they returned to the Takayama family, although they were still ninjas, they enjoyed the treatment of samurai, such a good thing, before that, they didn't even dare to think about it. But now it has become a reality, and with such a mood, even the burden on the back seems to be much lighter.

In order to be able to see the lord as soon as possible. So as soon as he entered Hida, Wasuka Masakatsu rushed to Takayama Castle as fast as he could, as for the ninja he brought. Anyway, there are ninjas who go with me to guide the way, and I am not afraid that they will get lost.

So that night, he met the Takayama clan.

Wasuka Masakatsu hadn't spoken yet, but just from his face full of excitement, the clan knew that he had not only brought the ninja army back, but also gained a lot from this trip.

Sure enough, as the clan thought, as soon as Wasuka came closer, he saluted and said, "The lord's subordinates are fortunate to live up to their mission, except for a few ninjas who are unwilling to submit to the Takayama family. Coupled with the dozens of ninjas who died in the battle, the subordinates brought back a total of 974 people, and on the way back, due to the lack of defenses in the Takeda family's territory, the subordinates led this army to burn more than a dozen castles. And looted to more than 100,000 yuan, and his subordinates were anxious to fear the lord, so they reported first, as for the ninjas and funds under his command, they could reach Takayama City early in the morning. ”

The Gao Shan Clan Sect couldn't help but be taken aback when they heard the news. According to his thoughts, Wasuka Masakatsu would be satisfied if he could bring back twenty or thirty thousand guan, but he actually looted more than 100,000 guan, which had to make him feel shocked.

The Takeda family is really too rich, if it is averaged, doesn't it mean that it can scavenge about 10,000 yuan of funds in each city, if so, Takeda Shingen is fully capable of building a red reserve team of tens of thousands of people, but now it is only maintained at 3,000 people, which means that its funds should not be very rich, but where did the money come from? Could it be that Wasuka Masakatsu led his army to break through Kofu Castle? This is the only city that has so much money.

Wasuka Masakatsu saw the lord's doubts, and only heard him quickly explain: "Lord, when his subordinates led the wind demon ninja to return, they saw that the gold mines controlled by the Takeda family were also empty in defense, and such an opportunity was rare, so the subordinates turned a corner and robbed two gold mines in a row, and only made up the 100,000 in total after adding the funds looted from the cities under his rule. ”…,

"What do you say, Takeda Shingen retreated? Is this true? As soon as Wasuka Masakatsu finished speaking, he saw the clan stand up violently and exclaimed.

For him, money is now secondary, and the most important thing is that Wasuka Masakatsu inadvertently said about Takeda Shingen's retreat, and the clan thought that Takeda Shingen would send his subordinates to lead the army back after learning that Wind Demon was looting in his territory, but he never expected that Takeda Shingen would personally lead the army back.

Not to mention that Takeda Shingen has been preparing for several years for this Shangluo, just to say that it is the power to contact the surrounding area of the Oda family, I am afraid that this time, if it withdraws its troops, then if it wants to go up and down in the future, it will definitely not have such a start.

Takeda Shingen will never do something big because of a small loss, for Shangluo, the destruction of the ninja in the wind demon is just a trivial matter, compared to the whole world, what is a mere 100,000 guan, there must be some other reason, so that he has to return to the army Kai, something more important than Shangluo, the clan really can't remember what it is, is it... Is it difficult that Takeda Shingen died on the way to Shangluo?

But now it's only 1568, and there should be several years before the fall of Takeda Shingen, even if he has the ability to change some history, but he is not an immortal, how can the life, old age, sickness and death of others be controlled by himself, but apart from this, it is really impossible to explain the reason for the retreat of the Takeda army.

Just when he was puzzled, Hikoemon walked quickly to the door and said loudly, "Report to the lord, Mizuse-sama asked to see him outside the door, saying that he had something important to report to the lord." ”

"Call him in." The person the clan wants to see most now is undoubtedly Mizuse Uemon, since the Takeda army was completely driven out of Hida, the clan not only let him take the head of Takeda Yama County Changkei's head to Takeda Shin Xuan Shiwei, and let him personally monitor the Takeda family's every move of the army. Why did the Takeda army retreat, he should know the reason.

It didn't take much effort, but I saw Mizuse Uemon approaching from outside the door in a hurry, and as soon as he came to the clan, he said loudly: "My lord, after defeating the Tokugawa army, the Takeda family did not continue to attack westward, but chose to retreat in a big way, even if the castles captured by them were all abandoned......"

Before he could finish speaking, the clan sect interrupted him and said: "Okay, I already know about the retreat of the Takeda family's army, and what I want to know most now is why the Takeda army retreated suddenly, you have been secretly investigating, you should know the way." ”

When the clan finished asking, he saw Mizuse Uemon frowning, and said stubbornly, "This ...... Please also ask the lord to forgive his subordinates for their incompetence, because the Takeda family is too tightly defended, so even if the subordinates go in person, they can't find accurate information, and they ask the lord to punish him. ”

Hearing this, the clan sect was not sure that Takeda Shingen was in order to block the news of his death, after all, the Takeda Army was the elite of the Eight Classics, but it was not comparable to those miscellaneous cards, and it was impossible to get into it, and he couldn't blame Mizuse Uemon, and since he didn't know the specific information of Lu Dao, he could only rely on his own analysis.

Thinking of this, I only heard the clan sect ask: "There is no need to say that these are useless, since you don't know the reason for the retreat of the Takeda family, then, you can report to me the actions of the Takeda family in the past few days." ”

Seeing that the lord was anxious, Wasuka Masakatsu reorganized the language, and then said: "Back to the lord, the subordinates arrived after the Takeda army defeated the Tokugawa army, but since the arrival of the subordinates, the Takeda army was stationed in Noda Castle, and there was no movement for several days, until two days ago, the Takeda army retreated, and did not leave Noda Castle, and its return army was in a hurry, and even the country of Yuanjiang took the initiative to give up, it can be said that this time the Takeda family spent a lot of financial and material resources, but there was no gain. ”…,

"Ha Luha, that's great news." I saw the clan slap his thigh, and Da Lu smiled. This is indeed great news for the clan whose territory borders the Takeda family.

Now the family has reconciled with the Uesugi family, and now Takeda Shingen has died early, and his son Katsuri is more than brave and resourceful enough, so the east no longer has to worry, he can use this time to carry out construction, and he can also attack Shinano when the Takeda family is in chaos, and this time the army is completely relying on his own strength, and the land taken by Nobunaga is definitely embarrassed to take it, less than half a year, the strength of the Takayama family, at least doubled, at that time, when waiting for Nobunaga to assign tasks, the eastern country strategy, it is none other than himself, As for that Takigawa Kazuki, let him go to the side and cool off.

And the reason why the clan is so sure that Takeda Shingen has passed away is entirely because the behavior of the Takeda army is too abnormal, even if he needs to let his subordinates rest after fighting the Tokugawa family again, he will definitely not let him rest for a few days, so not only will it not have any change in the next battle, but it will still reduce the morale of the army, how can Takeda Shingen, who is familiar with military law, ignore this matter.

And in connection with the sudden retreat of the Takeda army, then there is only one explanation, that is, Takeda Shingen is dead, even if he is not dead, but he will not have a few days to live.

Thinking of this, I saw the clan Zong standing up fiercely, and said excitedly: "Quickly call the two military advisors, I have something important to discuss with the two of them." ”

"It's the lord." As he spoke, Hikoemon glanced at his father and walked out quickly.

Seeing the lord's performance like this, Wasuka Masakatsu was suddenly a little confused, but he didn't ask anything, anyway, after the two military advisors arrived, the lord would naturally explain. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
