Of course, words like this are just talking, and the really suggestive one is what Wada Akiwei said, that is, after the war, the Satake family only needs to take charge of one country, and although there is only one country, Changlu has a stone height of 750,000 stones, and the whole palm of Changlu is enough for the Satake family to protect themselves in this troubled world.

Such a proposal coincided with Satake Yoshishige's idea, so it was quickly determined, and in order to make the alliance more stable, Satake Yoshishige decided to marry the Takayama family, but he hoped that the eldest son Tokushoumaru, who was only six years old, would marry Matsumatsuhime, the fourth daughter of the Takayama clan, of course, because the two were still young, so they could only set the marriage for the time being, and they would marry in the future.

"Report to the lord, there is an envoy outside the city who claims to be from the Tokilu Satake family who asks to see him, and ...... And there is also a ninja of their own family in their group, and they ask the lord to decide. ”

At this moment, the clan is in the inner room of the castle tower of Kofu City and the reiko, Ah Guo and those few little rabbit cubs say goodbye, a few days ago the clan received the news that Shibata Katsu was in poor health, it happened that Sakura was also beside him, originally the clan just listened casually, but after Sakura heard the news, he was not very anxious, and he shed a lot of tears on the spot. After all, Shibata Katsuya is fifty-five years old after the New Year, and in this era, such an age is already considered old, and it is really hard to say the result if he gets sick at this age.

Of course, the clan knew that his father-in-law was not so easy to hang up, and history made it not a problem to live for another ten or twenty years if it wasn't for the defeat and suicide, but he knew, but Sakura didn't know this. And the clan can't say much.

So after persuading Sakura to no avail. At Sakura's request. I had to accompany him to Echichu, and at Sakura's request, I also had to take Shinkatsu and Ryuomaru, if it weren't for the fact that Bing Ji had already married Maeda Toshinaga, I'm afraid even Bing Ji wouldn't be able to run.

And that's not all, although Akechi Tamako and Tachibana Chiyo have not officially married into the family, but now that the matter has been decided. And the clan has decided to hold a wedding for them this year, so at Sakura's request, the two daughters-in-law who have not yet passed the door have to run along.

Although the Shibata Katsuya accepted Sakura as a righteous daughter in order to win over the Takayama clan at the beginning, but after that, they really treated Sakura as their own daughter, coupled with Sakura's weak personality and a grateful heart, so they were grateful to the Shibata Katsu family in addition to gratitude.

Now that her father-in-law is seriously ill, maybe it will be the last time, and of course she hopes that her father-in-law can see his granddaughter-in-law before he dies. In this way, there is a scene in front of you.

"Got it, arrange for the Satake family envoy to wait in the assessment room. I'll say that later. ”

"It's the lord."

Sakura is not an unreasonable person, seeing that her husband has something to deal with, although it will delay the trip, but there is no way to do it, so she did not show any dissatisfaction, but urged her husband to deal with it.

For her, her husband's affairs are all big things, and no matter how important her own affairs are, they are also small things, and she will never make her husband feel embarrassed because of herself. But I was a little worried in my heart, although my husband said some time ago, at least this year, the family will not go to war with anyone, but who can say for sure about such a thing, she knows that sometimes, it doesn't mean that you can avoid it if you don't want to.

Especially the enemy of the husband this time is the powerful Hojo family, and the family doesn't want to go to war, will the Hojo family send an army to attack back? Although the clan rarely discusses the major affairs of the family in front of their wives, they are still clear about the main forces in the world, and through the attendants, they can also learn a lot about the current situation in the world. And what a powerful force the Hojo family is now facing is here. So this time they were all worried about their husbands.

Seeing Sakura standing there in a trance, Ah Guo walked over and comforted: "Sister Sakura, don't worry about your husband, didn't I say that the person who came just now was the Satake family, and it shouldn't be a matter of war, so sister better relax." ”

Not to mention the ladies in the inner room, it is only said that after the clan came to the assessment room, he saw a middle-aged samurai about forty years old sitting respectfully in the middle of the assessment room, and he knew that this person was a ninja sent by the Satake family without asking.

And there was a person sitting next to him, this person from the Gaoshan clan was a little familiar, and this person was definitely his own command.

After the two sides met, Wada Zhaowei first told the ninja to Satake's house to spy on intelligence, and said that he was arrested, and the clan didn't know the other party's intentions, so he could only deal with it, of course, with the strength of the Takayama family, he didn't have to do it at all, but this time he was caught by others, and his side was not reasonable at all, so the attitude still had to be there, and he would not underestimate the other party because the strength of the Satake family was not as good as his own family, especially the clan knew that Satake Yoshishige was a rare talent, and it would be best if he could be used by himself, So in terms of attitude, the clan is still very sincere.

And Hetian Zhaowei saw such an attitude of the clan, and he also had a little more confidence in what he was going to say next. And he didn't delve into the Takayama family's spying on Satake's intelligence, so as not to embarrass the other party too much, so he quickly got to the point.

I only heard Hetian Zhaowei say: "Lord Gaoshan, in addition to this small matter, under the order of the lord, there is another important matter to discuss with the adults. ”

When he heard that the Satake family had sent an envoy, the clan knew that the other party must have come to flank Hojo, otherwise the family and the Satake family really had no other common interests.

But the clan will never give up the interests of the family because of the ethereal appreciation of Satake Yoshishige, if the other party wants to submit, then the clan is really welcome, but if the other party wants to get a piece of the pie in their mouths, then I'm sorry, even Satake is an enemy of the Takayama family, as for appreciation or something, to hell with it.

With such a thought, the attitude of the clan sect immediately became serious, and he only heard him ask: "What the adults said is the big thing, and the thing that ...... refer to?"

Hetian said for Zhaoxin, aren't you pretending to be stupid, I'll come all the way once, what can I do, it's not to discuss the elimination of Hojo together, this Takayama clan is not worthy of the title of Owari no Fox, he doesn't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles. But in the end, the words still have to be said. I only heard Wada Zhaowei say: "Takayama-sama, as far as I know, Lord Oda has set a task for you to eliminate Hojo within five years, but Hojo is powerful, even if your elite wants to eliminate the Hojo clan within five years, it is very difficult, so I came here this time to discuss the union with the adults, once the Takayama family and the main family are united, then under the attack of the east and west, it will be much easier to destroy the Hojo family, I don't know if the adults think what they are saying is right?" ”

The clan did not deny his statement, and with the Satake family's containment, it would indeed speed up the elimination of Hojo, so I saw the clan nod, and then said: "Lord Wada is right, if the Satake family helps, it will indeed be easier to achieve the task of my family's master bus." Speaking of this, the clan suddenly changed his tone and said, "However, I don't think the Satake family has a reason to help the family for no reason, so please speak up." ”

"Since Takayama-sama asked, then I will say it directly, my lord means that he wants to form an alliance with the Takayama family, once the alliance is formed, then once the lord attacks in the west, then the family and the Utsunomiya family cooperate in the east, if the Hojo family takes action in the east, I also hope that the adults can immediately send troops, in this way, the Hojo family will not be able to gain an inch of success, and if they retreat, they will have nowhere to retreat, they can only be trapped in the territory, and once the Hojo is destroyed, the family only needs to get the country of Hitachi, and the Utsunomiya family only needs to continue to control the lower field, The rest of the Hojo family's land belongs to the Takayama family, and I don't know what Takayama thinks. ”

After the assessment meeting, the Satake family informed the Utsunomiya family of the alliance with the Takayama family, and the Utsunomiya family had serious disagreements, one side felt that since Yuki had taken refuge in Hojo, it would be better for the family to take refuge with it, and the other part of the retainers thought that they should unite with Satake and the Takayama family to continue to be hostile to Hojo, originally Utsunomiya Hirotsuna was still a little undecided, but when he thought of returning to Hojo, as a vassal force, he would not let it be handled, but if he continued to confront it, Then the family is still an independent force, and with the addition of the Takayama family, even if it can't eliminate Hojo, at least it can still be done by maintaining the status quo, and after having this idea, he quickly made a decision.

"I can't agree to the Satake family's proposal." After hearing this, the clan shook his head. Just kidding, the Kanto countries are the richest in Hitachi except for Musashi, how could he give up such a rich land, and spare more than 400,000 stone of Shimono, how many stones are high in Kanto, and more than a million stones at once, this is impossible for the clan to accept no matter what, so he directly rejected this proposal.

And Hetian Zhaowei didn't expect the clan to be so simple, he thought about it repeatedly before he came, no matter how he thought about it, he thought that it was impossible for the Takayama family to refuse, after all, with the containment of the family and the Utsunomiya family, the benefits to it were very great, but he didn't expect that the other party would even save the bargain, and for a while, Hetian Zhaowei didn't know how to answer, so he could only sit there stunned.

The idea of the clan is very simple, he thinks that even without the help of Satake and other forces, then once the expansion of the family is completed, plus the help of the Sakuma family, he is still very confident in eliminating the Hojo clan, so he does not regard Satake and other forces as very important, and the clan only leaves them one way to go, that is, to completely submit to the family, only in this way can he allow the existence of Satake and other forces, otherwise, the family will not mind erasing them from Kanto together after eliminating Hojo.
