Chapter 203: Counting Merit (Final)

Takeda Matasaburo is obviously in a hurry, time has passed, and there is a way to know the times for those who are handsome, and now the general trend is like this, and he has to bow his head. He now has long since ceased to claim to be a descendant of the noble ancestor Kiyoshi and Genji Silla Saburo Yoshimitsu, and has asked to see Zhengheng several times in a row, if it weren't for the only remaining bit of dignity, I'm afraid he would have been on his knees for a long time, and he wanted to talk about Zhengheng, just begging him to quickly mobilize the elite and help Tottori Castle. In fact, the Takeda clan of Inhata Province is a branch of the Takeda clan of Wakasa Province, and the Takeda clan of Wakasa Province is a tributary of the Takeda clan of the Kaigen clan, but Takeda Takanobu's father Takeda Toyozen Mamoru Kuninobu and the third generation of the Takeda clan of Wakasa Province have the same name, the same name is not the same, the former is not obvious, the latter has long been prestigious, and is considered to be one of the few famous generals in the Muromachi shogunate.

It doesn't matter how everyone sketches the picture of Inaba's country, who is right and wrong between Takeda Takanobu and Yamana Yutoyo, or how Takeda Matazaburo begs, there are only two choices in front of the Date family, whether to save or not to save?

Everyone had different opinions, and some were in favor of supporting, and said: "Yamana Yutoyo is known as the lord of the Yamana clan's Zhongxing, and with the help of Ikuno Ginshan, his military expansion is quite rapid, and once he is allowed to integrate the interior, the conflict of interest with my family will intensify." Besides, he pacified Tottori Castle today, and if Tottori Castle is lost, then my Misaku will directly border him. Therefore, the minister thinks that Totori Ruoping, Yamana Yutoyo will attack Misaku without scruples, and my Date family will be restrained here, and there will be endless troubles; Takeda Takashin, no matter what his intentions are or what his nature is, he is only half a country land, and with half a country to resist the wealth of Yamana Yufeng, he can only follow the Date family closely. Who's more threatening, it's clear at a glance. And my Date family defeated Mori Motoyo and Niko Haruma one after another, and the momentum is huge, and once Yamana Yutoyo succeeds, my Date family will be disgraced. Therefore, his subordinates thought that they should help Tottori. ”

There is in favor. Obviously, there are also opponents, saying: "The cold winter is coming, my Date family has fought many battles, and the country of Bigo defeated the Maori Moto, and the whole country has not yet been fully prepared. There are many thoughts of returning to the hometown, and if you send troops to the country again, it will be difficult to determine the month and month, and it will inevitably lead to an uproar. Moreover, Yamana Youfeng lives in the mainland, and the grain road is short. The food is simple, our army expedition to the country of Inba, we must raise the grain of the United States, the United States has already broken its muscles and bones, the food must be supplied by the rest of the country, if it comes from afar, I am afraid it will be difficult to help. And so on. In a hurry, the minister thought that the chances of victory were small and the chances of defeat were big. ”

In fact, whether it is for or against, the same issue and different angles will lead to different conclusions. Zheng Heng wiped his eyes with his hands, sat on the soft couch, and listened to everyone's justifications, he had already changed history beyond recognition, and the space that history could make use of him was getting smaller and smaller. Now the only thing that is desirable is to listen and understand both, and the only way to let the retainers express their opinions and the argument goes deeper. Only when the pros and cons of friend and foe can they be thoroughly analyzed can they help him make correct judgments.

On the side of the support, one of them came out to refute the arguments put forward by the opponents, saying, "Can Yutoyo Yamana compare with Morimoto? Can it be compared to Niko Haruha? Day. Hearing that Maori Yuan and Nizi Harujiu have arrived, my Date family is also facing a shortage of food and soldiers, if you watch from the wall, where can you still sit on the Kibi Shikoku like now? More silver does not mean more food, now is the Warring States in turmoil, all countries are fighting, everyone is short of food, but Ma is only 100,000 stones, and the soldiers who can fight are at most three or four thousand. Although our army fought for a long time, it did not encounter a strong battle situation, and its morale was unprecedentedly strong, and it was enough to relieve the siege of Tottori Castle in two or three days by dividing a strong army to make a long-distance attack. Although the minister is not talented, he only asks the lord to bring 3,000 armies to attack. ”

The person who spoke was the lord of Nakajima Teruyuki, who was sitting at the end of the seat in the mountain castle of Azen Township, Heyang County, China, his real surname was Fujiwara, and he was the last descendant of the Fujiwara Minami family Kudo clan, and his grandfather was a close attendant of the shogun Ashikaga Yoshinori, and when Ashikaga Yoshinori was under house arrest, he sent a secret letter to Ouchi Yoshiko, and then moved to Nakajima Township, Asang County, Heyang County, through the mountain city, and has gone through three generations. Historically, Nakajima Teruyuki died as a palace soldier after the Battle of Myekantji Castle, his son Nakajima Motoyuki served as the deputy general of Shimizu Soji to fight in Takamatsu Castle, and his grandson Yoshiyuki came out to Yuki Hideyasu. He was recommended by Ishikawa Hissataka to the Shiida family, followed Akagi Takao as the deputy general of the rear team, and only got the merit of Weimo in the joint battle with Niko Haruhisa and other battles on the expedition of Maori Moto, and more than 100 stones were sealed.

Now seeing that there are some disadvantages to support Tottori Castle in Inaba Province, but under the great victory, as long as the strategy is right, he will definitely be able to achieve a great victory, and the balance that has always been stingy with rewards will definitely be rewarded to him, and more importantly, he can gain a firm foothold in the Date family, which has established his position by virtue of his military achievements.

Hearing that Nakajima Teruyuki recommended himself to invite troops, it immediately attracted the onlookers of everyone, and some retainers who had not participated in the discussion spoke one after another, and they were still discussing the question of whether to rescue or not, but now they immediately turned to the question of who should lead the army to the battle.

Xiang came from Ueno Masada, who thought that the only one in the Date family's foot war, it was difficult to participate in everyone's discussion, but now when he heard that Nakajima Teruyuki invited soldiers to recommend himself, his eyes immediately widened, and he said: "The minister is willing to lead 1,500 horsemen to run for a long distance, and he will definitely relieve the siege of Tottori in one fell swoop." As he spoke, his eyes widened and he glared at Nakajima Teruyuki.

Nakajima Teruyuki knew that this person had always been domineering, and he was favored by Zhengheng, so he had to turn his head to look at Zhengheng, and the color of anticipation was beyond words.

Seeing that everyone had asked for battle, he didn't know how to answer for a while, but he had a deep worry in his heart, the arrogant army would be defeated, and the soldiers of the Date Army, who had defeated Maori Motoshi and Niko Haruhisa, were now in this situation.

Fortunately, Zhengheng was sober, he clearly realized that the current situation of the Date army was like a fearful egg, and everyone did not completely recognize what the victory or defeat of this battle was of any use to the Date family, he took a light breath, and then shook his head and said: "I think this year will end here!" ”

Everyone was stunned and said, "What? ”

Zhengheng looked at everyone's stunned expressions and said: "Since September I have been fighting against Maori Yuan, to November I have fought with Nizi Harumu, and since I entered the country of Misaku in December, the soldiers have not had a good rest, and their parents, wives and children are afraid day and night at home, and if they continue to fight, they will be too sorry for their relatives at home." We will take a truce here for the time being, and fortify the city that we have just regained. Otherwise, even if I capture more cities, my relatives at home will complain about me? ”

Saying that, Zhengheng suddenly laughed and said: "I'm a father, and I have three sons in a row, haha, haven't named them yet?" ”

After a pause, Zhengheng's face was a little stricter, and he said: "The cold winter is coming, if our army does not aid Tottori Castle, Takeda Takan Cage Castle is more than enough for two or three months, once it snows, it will be difficult for Yamana Yutoyo to continue even if he wants to attack, do you know why Takeda Takanobu still asks us to send troops to rescue?" ”

Katayama Hengcho thought about it for a moment and scolded in a low voice: "Bastard! Obviously, he had already seen Takeda Takanobu's cunning intentions, and replied: "My Date family sent troops to Inaba Province and won the occupied land and cities, and because the whip commander was too late to fall into his pocket, if he was defeated, he would not lose much, and he could drag my Date family into the quagmire of Inaba Country, which was a good calculation." ”

After listening to Katayama Hengcho's words, everyone reprimanded Takeda Takanobu's evil intentions, and then apologized to Masahiro. Nakajima Teruyuki asked, "Then I don't know how to reply to Takeda Matazaburo?" ”

Katayama Tsuenaga said suddenly: "Your Highness, the minister thought that he could promise to send reinforcements to Takeda Takashin, and send spies to Inaba, Tajima and other places to spread rumors that the Date army was coming, firstly, it not only preserved the strength of my family, but also gave Takeda Takana the hope of fighting to the end, and secondly, it could also force Yamana Yutoyo to hesitate and hesitate, work the people and lose money, consume the strength of Yamana Yutoyo, and sweep away the prestige of Yamana Yutoyo." ”

Zheng Heng was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Yes, this plan is very much in line with my wishes." ”

It is difficult for the Date family to use troops against Inaba and Tajima in the short term, and Masahiro has been coveting Naino Silver Mountain for a long time, but he doesn't want to miss this good opportunity, so that Yamana Yutoyo can calm down the internal dissatisfaction, and then calmly use troops externally. At that time, just let Mori Motoshi and Niko Harujiu have been in civil strife for a long time, and there will be a strong enemy like Yamana Yutoyo, which will do more harm than good to the Date family, who urgently needs time to recuperate.

If you want to resolve it, there is no other way than to make Inaba and Equestria unstable. However, it is not advisable to send troops directly and lash out and cheapen Takeda Takashin in vain.

After the meeting, Masahiro met Takeda Matazaburo in his study who had come to ask for help, and he calmed down for a while, and promised to raise troops to attack Inaba Province in the near future and relieve the siege of Tottori Castle.

Takeda Matazaburo repeatedly thanked Zhengheng for his kindness, and was glad that his brother's plan had succeeded, so he hurriedly sent an envoy to inform his brother that he had left behind to guide him. Not wanting the thunder to be heavy and rainy, Date Jun was busy packing his bags, obviously wanting to leave for the army, but he became anxious again, and hurriedly asked to see the previous political balance, and the attendants refused to meet him on the grounds that he was busy with political affairs.

At the same time, the Date family sent a large number of spies into the Inaba country to spread rumors that Date was coming, vowing that they would fight to the death with Yamana Yutoyo in the near future, and at the same time, Kusakari Keitsugu and others closed the checkpoints in the border area, which meant a war.

Yutoyo Yamana really hesitated as expected, and when the first heavy snow fell, Takeda Matazaburo returned to Tottori Castle with the envoy of the Date family, and Takeda Takanobu learned the intentions of the Date family, and although he was dissatisfied, he still had to express his gratitude to the envoy of the Date family.

When the first heavy snow fell, Zhengheng had already set off for Crane City.
