Under the soft moonlight, the lush pine branches sway gently with the breeze, the whole world seems to spread out a layer of picturesque beauty under the moon, gentle, quiet night, a bright moon in the unpredictable clouds flickering, even if the clouds are thick, but also block not beautiful, the bright moonlight sprinkles all over the earth, the scenery is intoxicating.

The oil lamps had already been lit and covered with red lanterns, and the lights flickered and dragged long shadows in the room. In the hall, the clay pots on the two braziers were bubbling suddenly, Zheng Heng picked up a piece of rice cake with chopsticks, blew it, and ate it with a sigh.

Japanese hot pot is a traditional way of eating in the Wa country, so it has a long history and is delicious and fresh. After Zhengheng came to this era, he really didn't dare to compliment the cuisine of the Wa Kingdom, and he was either chazuke or rice tea, and he only had a soft spot for hot pot.

Swallowing the rice cake, Zhengheng raised his head and looked at the monk, the monk also turned his head, the two glanced at each other in their eyes, no one turned away, he smiled slightly, and said: "I received your meeting gift, don't be so bloody in the future." ”

Suifeng is thin, his face is not deep, his two dark thick eyebrows are very eye-catching, and his big beautiful eyes are shining, he never thought that Yingjie, who swallowed mountains and rivers, would eat hot pot with him, nor did he expect to see it so quickly.

bowed to the wind, and then looked at Zheng Heng, wanting to take a good look at what was special about this ordinary face, in addition to feng shui and yin and yang, he also knew a little about reading physiognomy, but Zheng Heng's face was really ordinary, and it was the ordinary to the extreme that made him feel strange and was about to speak. But hearing Zhengheng's words made him change color in shock.

For the first time, the wind that came to rejoice was shocked. He has always done things without leaks. The only loophole in this matter is that the Akashi brothers had seen him. I also know his name. This matter was originally a meeting gift from him to Date's family, but judging from the time, the Akashi brothers should not have said it yet.

In this way, the only explanation is guessed by the other party. Suifeng and Zhengheng met for the first time today, the two had no intersection before, Zhengheng knew at first glance that he did it, how could this be? Suifeng, who turned a few corners at once, thought about more than ten possibilities, and then he denied them one by one.

Not for a while. Sui Feng smiled and said: "Lord Dazai Da Er really deserves to be a peerless wise general in the Western Kingdom, and it is really sharp to wronged the little monk, thinking that the little monk can be slaughtered with a three-inch tongue. ”

Zhengheng didn't care, put the vegetables in the clay pot, and pointed: "With the wind, the spring is warm and cold, eat some hot pot to warm up, don't mind." As soon as I got the news that the Honganji mission had been killed, I was waiting for that person to arrive. Never thought that the little master appeared in front of me, it's that simple? ”

Suifeng touched his nose, untied the wine gourd, and fell down with his neck up, the wine in the gourd had already been drunk, and he dropped two drops, he licked his tongue, put down the gourd, and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, he is worthy of being a chess player, and he will not let go of any odd number." ”

Zheng Heng's eyes flickered, and he ordered his subordinates to bring wine, and then smiled slightly: "Although Suifeng is joking, it is very interesting to speak, which makes me refreshed." I don't know who Suifeng thinks is qualified to be my opponent in this big game? Is that you? With the wind? ”

"Nope. Shaking his head lightly in the wind, he smiled bitterly, this person is really smart, and he seems to be showing off some cleverness. Calm and ruthless, showing off and smart, often separated by a piece of paper, said: "Dazai Da Er's big chess game, has been played to the middle game, the climax is coming, the people in the chessboard know that there is a player behind the push, but also can't help themselves, can only struggle step by step, people outside the chessboard want to become a player also have to weigh their qualifications enough?" ”

"Hahaha!" Zheng Heng laughed loudly and said, "Wise man, worthy of being a wise man, do you want to show off your Feng Shui today, or your ability to communicate yin and yang, or to gain insight into the trend of nature." But if you're too smart, you're afraid you won't live long?! ”

Sui Feng looked up at Zhengheng and said, "It seems that Lord Dazai is not very confident in himself, for fear that I will go to the player who can be an opponent with Lord Dazai in the future, and help the player and the Lord to play another game of chessboard that is enough to stir up the world." ”

Zheng Heng waved his hand and said, "Your clumsy agitation method is useless to me. After I finish this game, whoever will be my next opponent in the next round will appear, and he will take all my anger and strangle him in the cradle. ”

Zhengheng's words are full of self-confidence, but he is not swayed by self-confidence, such a person is the most terrifying, of course, when he becomes an opponent. After pondering for a long time, Sui Feng asked, "I wonder who will be your opponent in the eyes of adults?" ”

Zheng Heng smiled and said: "The little master has traveled all over the world, I want to come and meet a lot of generals, right?" The current situation in the world is well understood, but in fact, there are only a few people who can play against me, the dragon of Echigo, the tiger of Kai, the lion of Sagami, the strongest bow of Tokaido, the fool of Yang or Owari, and the proton of Mikawa. ”

The last two, he deliberately lowered his voice. Nagao Keiho, Takeda Harunobu, Hojo Shiyasu, and Imagawa Yoshimoto are indeed heroes who can fight with Date Masahiro today, but when it comes to the end Oda Nobunaga and Matsudaira Motoyasu, they still heard that their faces changed again with the wind.

Masahiro sensed the change in Suifeng's face, and anyone who has played Dark Glory will know that the three heroes of the Warring States of the Wa Kingdom, Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, and now Toyotomi Hideyoshi is still a low-level samurai, even the most daring person can't guess that he will create the Toyotomi regime in history, and the rise of Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu is only in the minds of a few wise men and the pile of old papers. He said with a smile, "It is rumored that before he died, Asakura Munetsu said, 'If you live for another three years, you will be able to see the rise of Oda Nobunaga.'" I quite agree with Asakura Sote's prediction, it is rumored that Mino's Saito Yoshiryu is sick, once he dies in the prime of life, leaving his young son to inherit the country of Mino, just like a child crossing the street with gold, Oda Nobunaga, who is the son-in-law of the third prince of the province, and then conjured up a copy of the 'letter of the country' written by the third prince of the province before his death, and even has the name of righteousness. Mino, Owari, plus Ise. Millions of stone high. But. The premise for him to have all this is whether the Tokaido No. 1 Strongbow will sit back and watch him rise? ”

Suifeng values Oda Nobunaga, and it is he who breaks the stereotype and recruits talents. Since there is no one else in the world, I have also thought about a way out for him, but I never thought that Zhengheng's prediction of the situation was very accurate, and I wanted to refute it with the wind, but I couldn't find a reason to refute it at all.

Zhengheng suddenly laughed, and he said: "Now Oda Nobunaga can only use 5,000 troops, Imagawa Yoshimoto's troops are as high as 25,000, if Oda Nobunaga wants to defeat Imagawa Yoshimoto." Only surprise attacks and ambushes can have any hope of becoming a gamer, otherwise there is only a dead end, oh, if Oda Nobunaga is willing to become Oda Nobunaga's minions, maybe he will save his life under the mercy of Imagawa Yoshimoto. ”

A trace of sweat oozed from his forehead with the wind, and he really deserved to be a hero who swallowed mountains and rivers, and he took one step and looked at three steps. Zhengheng is playing a big game of chess, already preparing for the next game, and keeping an eye out for potential opponents, and even playing a few idle moves to stifle these people. He looked up and asked, "Surely you have already played a few idle chess moves?" ”

Zhengheng ate the vegetables in the hot pot by himself, and the sound of snorting continued. Sometimes I would drink some cold water because it was too hot, and after a while, he said: "It's in a hurry with the wind, it seems that the Oda Nobunaga I'm talking about is the guy who may play against me in the eyes of the wind." ”

After a pause, Zhengheng put down the dishes and chopsticks, picked up a bamboo stick, and said: "Kinai divides the winner and loser, the first strong bow in Tokaido is afraid that he can't bear Shangluo's heart, even if he doesn't want to go to Luo, the two foreign families of the three alliances of Shandeji Temple will also fuel him to Shangluo, otherwise the tiger of Kai and the lion of Sagami will probably have trouble sleeping." The first battle of Kamiraku, the first strongest bow in the Tokaido, was Owari, and the fools of Owari had only a dead end to defend the cage castle, and only the field battle out of the castle had a glimmer of life, so the battlefield could only be in this small area between Owari and Mikawa. ”

Zheng Heng didn't wait for the wind to reply, and continued: "I specially ordered someone to check the terrain of this small area, and sure enough, I found several good places that could be used for ambushes, but the best of them was a place called Tian Lewa by the locals. Now that I know that Tarakuwa will most likely become the place where Oda Nobunaga will attack, then as an idle move, I erected a stone tablet in Tarakuwa with a few words written on it, and this stele has long been smashed by the strongest bow in Tokaido. ”

Suifeng never thought that Zhengheng would do this, he was frightened by Zhengheng's words, knowing that Zhengheng was already preparing for the next chess sentence, but he never thought that he had already found an opponent for himself, muttered a terrible person, and asked: "Aren't you afraid that the first strong bow in Tokaido will become your opponent?" ”

Masahiro laughed out loud and said, "Even you don't believe in his ability, even if he obtains a million stones from the Nowei Plain, he can't get rid of his forward-looking nature, and if he can't return to Suruga for a long time, he will fall into the situation of traditional protection." What a beautiful scenery Ouchi Yoshixing was, staying in Kyoto for eleven years, and finally sitting back and watching Niko encroach and grow bigger for a long time, laying the groundwork for the decline of the Ouchi clan. ”

With a wry smile in the wind, it is true that Imagawa Yoshimoto and Oda Nobunaga are really incomparable, but in any case, it will take six or seven years for Oda Nobunaga to obtain Mino Country, and six or seven years is enough for the Date family to digest the newly added territory.

After pondering for a long time, he said with the wind: "The Great War of Jinai is imminent, I don't know when Lord Dazai Daiji will send troops?" ”

Zhengheng said: "I have already sent troops, now that the flags and horses have been down, the Tango Kingdom will soon fall into my hands, once the Tango Kingdom is captured, then the Tanba Kingdom will fall into a flanking situation, and a battle can make the Tanba Kingdom fall into my hands." ”

Suifeng is a smart man, he once again thought about the strategy of Zhengheng, and he had to admire Zhengheng again, and he really deserved to be the person who was most likely to become the person of the world, the strategic deployment of the Date family was step-by-step, and at the same time, he was also forcing Honganji to end the war in Kinai as soon as possible, defeat the opponent before the Date family completed the strategic deployment, and then concentrate all the forces to compete with the Date family for the Tamba country.

Contemplating with the wind, slowly, he realized something, and said: "The praying mantis catches the cicada, the yellow finch is behind, do you want to be the yellow finch?" With such a layout, how can Honganji not know, and how can it be tricked? Once you are freed from Honganji, I am afraid that the chess pieces will become players. ”

Zhengheng shook his head and said: "Tanba country is mountainous, Inba, Tajima, and Tango don't need much of this team, as long as they are strong, Harima country has many plains, and Honganji is also difficult to enter, and the Seto Uida Navy is invincible." How did Honganji have time to digest the territory and destroy the remaining hostile forces, you must know that even if he could burn down Todai-ji Temple, Enryakuji Temple and other temples, he would not be able to burn the faith in the hearts of the believers. The most important thing is that they have no food. ”

Grain, listening to what Zhengheng said, fell into contemplation again with the wind, indeed, it has always seemed to be overwhelming, but the same damage to agricultural planting is extremely powerful. Countless peasants took up arms for the sake of their faith and participated in the rebellion, and the direct consequence was the abandonment of farmland. In order to obtain food, these peasants will inevitably loot and loot, setting off round after round of storms, rolling bigger and bigger like locusts, and there is no solution to the destruction of agriculture in a short time. The outbreak in Kaga Province has always been supported by Noto, Echizen, Echichu, and Echigo to survive the first two years of food shortage. However, the current situation is that even if Honganji defeats the rival sect, it will face the arrival of the army of the Date family, how will he disband the Ita family, without the fact that it is difficult for him to resist the invasion of the Date family, and with the help of the Ida family, there is no one to farm.

It's a dead loop, a big game of chess, and sure enough, it's the person who is most likely to become a person in the world, but it's also a little too ruthless, and he wants to sweep away the strength of Kinai in one fell swoop, and when Honganji defeats the rival sects, the Date family descends from the sky as a savior, and not only can get the gratitude of the sects, but also the land of these sects, because they are all taken from the hands of Honganji. The biggest victim is Honganji, but no one sympathizes with it.

Suifeng knew the plan of Zhengheng, but he had no power to stop the inertia of the chessboard, and now the only one who can save the sects is Zhengheng, but Zhengheng is the player, the person who plays chess, and adjusts his steps before there are great changes and interests.

Zheng Heng looked at Suifeng and said calmly: "Suifeng, do you know Wang Zhiwang Wufeng?" He is about to die, and his death will bring about a fundamental change in the situation in the Ming Kingdom, and the Ming Kingdom will usher in a dark period of nearly ten years. That's why I played this big game. (To be continued.) )
