Chapter 619: Strategic Locations

"But I wonder what your plans are for the future?" After the half-guard of Takenaka got up, he only listened to the clan ask the clan, now that he is his own person, the clan is not embarrassed.

I saw that Takenaka Hanbei thought about it and said: "Although there was nothing to do before Xia, which made the lord gradually forget, however, I think that the Oda family now has nearly three million stone land, but with the character of the lord, how can it stop here."

Half a life before the next,But the start is not low.,Even if you start to exert force from now.,It's not too late.,According to the intelligence,At present, not only is the situation around the Oda family ready to move.,Even the wealthy clan in the newly acquired land of the lord also has the intention of rebellion.,There will be Shibata-sama in the south.,I don't think they can make any big waves.,Wise Lord has set his sights on the Yamashiro country.,That Wakasa country is the target below.。

If a narrow country is not a good place, you can be under the current strength, but also have to start from here, as long as the power in the country has a move, then immediately apply to the lord to lead the army to attack, although in the identity of the next, and the status in the heart of the lord, even if the country is captured, will not be named the lord of the country, but with this credit to get the reward may not be too little, in this way, the family also has the capital to develop, then one day, in the next will become a big help to adults, I don't know what Takayama-sama thinks of the plan below. ”

After hearing this, the clan couldn't help but nodded, he had already heard Nobunaga say that the Takeda family was contacting the surrounding forces of the Oda family, and I am afraid that it won't be long before they will unite to deal with Oda, although since the crossing. The clan did not pay attention to the country of Wakasa, but the situation in its country is still somewhat known, and the stone height of the country is less than 100,000, and in terms of stone height, it is not much among the sixty-six countries in Japan, but the country is very chaotic.

The Wakasa Takeda family undoubtedly has the largest number of stone heights in the country, but its head is cowardly and incompetent. In the face of the large and small wealthy families in the country, they only know how to defend passively, but they do not attack, otherwise with the strength of the Takeda family. Even if it is not impossible to unify Wakasa.

In addition to the Takeda family, there are several wealthy families in the Wakasa country, second only to the Takeda family are Awaya and Yimi. Not only did the two families not get along with Takeda, but they also fought with each other, and the remaining wealthy families were also independent, so Wakasa was in chaos, and once Takenaka Hanbei led his army to attack, as long as Nobunaga could support him with a thousand troops, then it was certain that within three months, he would be able to completely pacify Wakasa.

As long as this credit is given, then the clan believes that the Takenaka Hanbei will also return to Nobunaga's sight. And because this Wakasa is not a good place. That's why not many people will go there to fight, who knows that after Lu Dao waits for himself to settle down there, the main guild will not seal himself there, so the half-guards of Takenaka will not encounter much resistance when applying for the task, even if there is. But as long as he stands up with his father-in-law, plus the three of Mino, who are already on the side of the Takenaka Hanbei, and the help of Akechi Mitsuhide, Murai Sadakatsu and others, it is not difficult to let the Takenaka Hanbei go. So although it hasn't been carried out yet, the clan has already been able to meet Lu, and the half-guards of Takenaka will definitely go calmly and return with a big victory.

Now the clan has to admire the all-round aspect of the Takenaka half-guard, if it wasn't for his proposal, the clan would not have thought of it at all. "Takenaka-sama's strategy is very good, and when the lord proposes something to the lord, Shibata and I will definitely stand up."

"In that case, I'll thank you Takayama-sama in advance."

After thanking him, he only heard the clan speak: "Lord Takenaka, I don't know what you think about the Takeda family's contact with the surrounding forces of the Oda family and preparing to take action?" ”…,

Takenaka Hanbei didn't say anything after hearing this, but seriously, and thought about the whole thing from beginning to end, but it was okay if he didn't want to, and now when he figured it out, the smile on his face disappeared.

Only the hall opened his mouth and said: "Lord Takayama, I think that the Takeda family's move is probably preparing for Shangluo, Takeda Shingen began to prepare a few years ago, but what he didn't expect was that when he was ready, the Oda family was already strong, and in terms of the strength of the two families, if the war started, then it must be the Takeda family who lost, so he thought of attacking together with the forces around the Oda family, so that the Oda family's army could not be clenched into a fist, so the opportunity for the samurai family came." ”

"Although Lord Takenaka said it well, but the clan believes that even if he says that the army around the Oda family will attack, but after all, this matter is led by the Takeda family, if he does not move, how can other forces move first, and if the Takeda family takes the lead in the army, or at the same time with other forces, but only the Takeda family is a threat to the Oda family, with the character of the lord, it is inevitable that other fronts will take the defensive position first and go all out to deal with Takeda, so that the Takeda family still can't get anything cheap, and maybe it will make a wedding dress for other forces, with the shrewdness of Takeda Shingen, how could he do such a thankless thing.

And this is exactly what the clan can't understand, I don't know what Takenaka-sama thinks? ”

"Lord Takayama, this is the right thing to say, of course Takeda Shingen would not do such a stupid thing, but my lord has forgotten that there is still a large Takeda army in Hida Country, and in my opinion, when the Takeda family and the Oda family reach an agreement, it will be the moment when the Hida Takeda Army will come out.

In this way, the Takeda army can still rest in Shinka and wait for the best opportunity to send troops, while the Takeda army in Hida will attack, which will not only not fall into the truth, but also give confidence to other forces, once they win, then the Takeda army can go out in two ways, one way to the Tokaido, and the other way to go out of Hida and go straight to Gifu Castle.

And at that time, the Oda family's army was scattered, and it had fallen into the mud altar, even if it was saved all the way, it was impossible to rescue both roads at the same time, but no matter which way was lost, then it was not something that the Oda family could bear, so I thought that the Guan Jian of the Oda and Takeda war was in Hida, and the adult as the lord of the Hida country, this burden was really not light, which was exactly what I was worried about. ”

After hearing this, the clan couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and at first he didn't care too much about Takeda Shingen Shangluo, after all, as long as he had a little understanding of Japan's Warring States, who didn't know that Takeda Shingen died on the way to Shangluo, and he didn't even take half a step forward.

However, he suddenly remembered that it was only 1568 years now, and because of his appearance, the process of history had been accelerated by several years, so that is to say, Takeda Shingen still had several years to live, and with Takeda Shingen, the Shangluo army would never give up halfway, it would depend on the real kung fu, and there was no trick at all.

Hida is not only used as another road to Shangluo, but also it can threaten Gifu Castle, such a strategic place, how can Takeda Shingen send 3,500 troops, I am afraid that it will increase the force of the army as soon as it is agreed with the surrounding forces of the Oda family, so the pressure on himself has undoubtedly increased a lot, with the current strength of the family can withstand the attack of the Takeda family.

Although the clan and Takenaka Hanbei have guessed the strategy of Takeda Shingen, but the two of them have ignored one point, that is, Takeda Shingen does not know that Oda Nobunaga will not provide any assistance to the clan in the future for the sake of the gold mine, after all, he does not want to fall too deep in Hida, and it is very unfavorable for the Takeda family to fight there, fortunately, even if this matter reaches the Takeda family, it will take at least half a year, and the Takeda family will not be able to catch up with the redeployment of the army. Otherwise, the clan would not have to face 3,500 Takeda family ashigaru and 2,000 ninja troops. …,

When the Takenaka Hanbei finished analyzing, the two immediately fell into silence, and after a long time, they heard the clan ask from the clan, "Shigeji, do you think it will be how long it will be before the Takeda family attacks Hida?" ”

"Lord Takayama, although I don't know when Takeda Shingen sent the envoy, if you start counting from the matter of Zhilu Dao, then I think that two months later will be the hand of the Takeda family to attack, so it shouldn't take more than two months."

Speaking of this, I only heard Takenaka Hanbei speak again: "With the strength of Lord Takayama, it is indeed a little difficult to face the Takeda family's military strength and follow-up reinforcements alone, but adults don't have to worry too much, the Oda family has recuperated during this period of time, and the Oda family army has fifty or sixty thousand people, with the lord's trust in the lord, as long as the lord speaks, I am afraid that the lord will definitely send reinforcements to support, with this support army, with the talent of Takayama, I want to block the attack of the Takeda army, And it should still be possible to drive it out of Hida.

After all, if the Takeda family is Kamiluo, most of the troops under its command and Akabei will still take Tokaido, so according to the following estimates, even if Takeda Shingen sends troops to Hidaga, its total military strength will definitely not exceed 10,000, and Tokaido has the Tokugawa family in front of the defense, and the lord can still do it if he draws some military strength to help the lord. ”

After hearing this, the clan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I'm afraid that my lord still doesn't know the way, from now on, the lord will never send a soldier to help me, so I can only rely on myself to fight with the Hida Takeda army." Of course, unless I failed completely and failed to stop the Takeda Army, there is almost no chance that the lord will change his decision. ”

Takenaka Hanbei couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this, in his opinion, such a thing would not happen at all, with the degree of favor of the lord to Lord Takayama, how could he let him face the Takeda family alone, thinking of this, I only heard him say in an unbelievable tone: "My lord is not joking with Zai Xia again." ”

"This is related to the rise and fall of the family, how can I use this to joke, I can't hide it, the day before yesterday I reported to the lord about the gold mountain of Sakura Cave City, the lord has given me this gold mine, but there is a condition, that is, once I get the gold mine, then the lord will not provide any help in the future, the lord said ......"

After hearing this, the half-guards of Takenaka, who had always been unfazed, couldn't help but feel a little surprised, what a great grace the lord actually gave the gold mine to Takayama-sama, but if it was himself at that time, he would definitely be like Takayama-sama, and first grasp the gold mine in his hands. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
