Chapter 3: The Ambition of the Takayama Clan
"Back to the lord, the little Zhixing only has 500 stones that do not break the county mountain and go to the countryside. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info," Kinoshita Hideyoshi said truthfully.
"Your brother is almost a thousand stones, but you only have five hundred, how can this be? Since you have been working hard for your family, I will give you an extra 200 stones, and I will work hard in the future. Oda Nobunaga said.
"Ahh The little one thanked the lord, thank you...... The little ones will die for the Oda family. ”
"Okay, you can retreat first!"
At this time, Hasegawa Shuichi opened the door and knelt outside and said, "The master of the Takayama clan from the east of the family asks to see him." ”
"Monkeys." Oda Nobunaga suddenly shouted.
"Ahh What does the lord command? ”
"Did you make an appointment to come together?"
"Ah...... No, we didn't make an appointment to come together. ”
"It wasn't an appointment! It's really boring. Oda Nobunaga said.
"The little one stepped back first."
"Hey! Monkey ......" Oda Nobunaga called Kinoshita Hideyoshi.
"What does the lord command?" Kinoshita Hideyoshi immediately turned around and knelt on the ground.
"Remember to tell him all the useless things you said at the beginning, I don't want to hear the repetition anymore, do you remember?" Oda Nobunaga said loudly.
"Hey!"
A few minutes after Kinoshita Hideyoshi exited the side hall, Oda Nobunaga, who was almost impatient, finally heard a series of hurried footsteps. Shuichi Hasegawa opened the sliding door, and Oda Nobunaga saw the Takayama clan half-kneeling outside the door.
"Come in!" Oda Nobunaga said lazily.
"Hey!" After the Takayama clan entered the side hall, Hasegawa Shuichi closed the sliding door.
"The monkeys told you!" Oda Nobunaga asked.
"Hey! Kinoshita-sama has already said it. Gao Shan Clan said respectfully.
"Say it! What do you want to do here, just say, I don't want to listen to nonsense. ”
"I want to go out for the lord to fly out of the country, and I hope the lord will agree." The Takayama clan said cautiously, just like Kinoshita Hideyoshi just now, he just knelt and didn't dare to raise his head.
"Hida Country?" Oda Nobunaga said suspiciously.
"Hey!"
Oda Nobunaga raised his head and looked at the Takayama clan kneeling there below, he didn't dare to raise his head, he whispered to himself: "You still have monkeys, you are all really boring!" ”
The Takayama clan heard Oda Nobunaga's words clearly, but he didn't dare to say a word, for fear that Oda Nobunaga would be unhappy. Because when he was waiting outside, when Oda Nobunaga scolded the monkey, he had already heard a lot.
"You said you wanted to attack Hida Country, so how many men do you have now?" Oda Nobunaga asked.
"Back to the lord, there are three hundred centaurs under your command to use." The Takayama clan replied truthfully.
"What? You said that there are 300 people under your command, and if I remember correctly, there should only be a thousand stones of land! Oda Nobunaga asked.
"Back to the lord, when the city of Momata was overnight, the lord gave him 500 stone to seal, and later hit the Mino country, and the lord rewarded him with 500 stone. Now there is a fiefdom of 1,400 stone below. The Takayama clan replied.
"1,400 stones, it should only be able to raise dozens of people and horses at most! With such a little bit of knowledge, you actually raised 300 soldiers, they are all wooden people, don't you need to eat? Oda Nobunaga said in surprise.
"Hey!"
"Come, tell me, how did you manage to raise 300 people with 1,400 stones?"
"Don't dare to deceive the lord, the whale house in the castle town is opened below."
"What? You opened the whale house? Oda Nobunaga finally got a little interested, and looked straight at the Takayama clan.
"Hey!" At this time, the Takayama clan clan left a cold sweat on his back, and he didn't know what Oda Nobunaga would do after that.
"Can I get a discount when I go to the store?" Oda Nobunaga suddenly said with interest.
"Ahh For Oda Nobunaga's unrelated question, the Takayama clan was at a loss.
"Can't you understand me?" Oda Nobunaga said impatiently raising his tone.
"The lord is here, and the whale house is willing to waive all fees." The Takayama clan replied respectfully, and the whole attitude was very low.
"Oh! Seriously? ”
"Hey!"
"You can make 2,000 yuan a year?"
"Back to the lord, it's almost 1,700 yuan, and the ordinary soldiers in the family still need to work in the fields, so they can also have some harvest, so they can feed these three hundred standing men."
"I'll patronize the whale house, and I don't want you to be free, how about a 60% discount."
"Thank you for your grace."
"As for the matter of the Hida country, you have three hundred people in the past, it seems that there is a little less, although it is very poor, I can't look down on it, but after all, it is a country! Don't underestimate it. ”
"Hey!"
"So be it! I will transfer you to the county of Hachiman Castle for 3,000 stones, and you will have the right to lead the army independently, and this is the second retainer in my family to have such rights, and you will be allowed to go out to Hida Province in a year, but there is one thing you have to remember. ”
"My lord's command."
"You must not let the Uesugi family and the Takeda family come to Minokoku." Oda Nobunaga slowly stepped down from the main seat, came to the front of the Takayama clan, and said half-crouching next to the Takayama clan's ear.
"Try to do it in the next place." The Takayama clan replied.
"Bastard, it's not as much as possible, it's necessary to do it, you know?" As soon as Oda Nobunaga turned around, the wide robe covered the face of the Takayama clan, and Oda Nobunaga quickly returned to his main seat and sat down lazily.
"Hey!"
"Alright, you go down! I'm tired. Oda Nobunaga looked at the sunlight outside the window and stretched out.
At this time, Oda Nobunaga was still thinking about a question, Nohime, Ikoma, or taste Suzune! This new female ninja, that taste, it's really good!
"Father, I lost."
In Koshu's Ashigasakikan Castle, in the corridor of the wide Ohiroma of the Imperial Palace, Takeda Shingen and his fourth son, Takeda Katsuyori, are playing shogi, but it is clear that Takeda Katsuyori is not Takeda Shingen's opponent.
Since the 8th year of Eiroku (1565), Takeda Yoshinobu and the general of the Takeda family, Iitomi Toramasa, and others conspired to depose Takeda Shingen, but because of the denunciation of Yama Prefecture Masakai, Takeda Tomitaka committed suicide, Takeda Yoshinobu was placed under house arrest, and many retainers were killed or exiled, and Takeda Yoshinobu died the year before.
During this time, Katsuyori Suwa, who was supposed to inherit the Shinano Suwa family, was welcomed back to his family and was raised by Takeda Shingen as the new heir.
"Shiro, the way of using soldiers, you care about the combination of righteousness and odds, you are just rampage, it is good to say that for the little wealthy clan, when facing the same forces, it will be difficult to defeat." Shingen Takeda said.
