Oyamada Nobushige looked back and saw that it was Nobunaga Anayama who came to speak, and his nose suddenly twisted in anger.
The two families were close before and joined forces to give Takeda Harunobu eye drops. Now that she was turned around and sold, how could she not be angry.
But it’s unexpected, but it’s also reasonable.
When it comes to who among the Takeda family wants to go south the most, it is none other than the Anayayama family. The Anayama family and the Imagawa family were separated by the Fuji River, and they were already jealous of the Imagawa family's wealth.
At the beginning, Imagawa Yoshimoto was known as the giant of Tokaido. He took the lead in forming the alliance of Takeda, Imagawa, and Hojo, and the Imagawa family was the strongest.
The Anesama family looked at it with envy, but they did not dare to say anything to encourage Takeda Harunobu to go south. But times have changed, and today the Imagawa family is like a piece of fat, and when you open your mouth, it's like a mouth full of oil.
The Imagawa family is really powerless to control the three kingdoms dominated by the Imagawa family.
The Nishi-Mikawa Matsudaira family is conquering the entire Mikawa Kingdom, and the Imagawa family is still having conflicts between the Suruga clan and the Toe clan.
The Imagawa family really couldn't handle the retainers group. As the governor of the family, she could only control the Sunfu Castle area, and her prestige was far inferior to that of her mother, Imagawa Yoshimoto.
The Aneshan family saw it in their eyes and were anxious in their hearts. If you don't hold back on such a weakling, Takeda Harunobu insists on going north to attack Echigo. Is he mentally ill?
Now that the Takeda family has suffered a setback in Kawanakajima, and Yoshigan Shiba has offered such good conditions to encourage Takeda Harunobu to turn south, Nobu-kun Anayama will definitely jump in to support him.
Previously, she cooperated with Oyamada Nobumo to attack Shiba Yoshigan, aiming to undermine Takeda Harunobu's prestige and expand the power of the Anayama family among the Kai clan.
Now that she saw the possibility of the Takeda family turning south, her butt instantly tilted to the side of Shiba Yoshigan, and she choked Oyamada Nobushige and supported the peace talks between the Takeda and Uesugi families.
Oyamada Nobumo turned pale with anger, and Yamagata Masaki also smiled bitterly and shook his head.
As a close confidant of Takeda Harunobu, her attitude was not as firm as that of the Shinano family and the Anayayama family, and she seemed like an outsider.
Fortunately, with the support of these two forces, Takeda Harunobu and the Uesugi family can negotiate a peace, and the strategic change of turning southward will be much smoother.
After Nobu-kun Anayama jumped out, he took the initiative to argue with Nobumo Oyamada. Shiba Yoshigan and Takeda Harunobu looked at each other and knew in their hearts that the overall situation was decided.
At this time, Takeda Harunobu, who had been silent, suddenly said to Shiba Yoshigan.
"In the imperial office, it is a good thing for the two families to make peace to avoid disaster, but there is something I don't understand.
Since you have drawn the boundaries for the Takeda family, does that mean that the Takeda family has the support of you and the shogunate in dominating the Shinano country?
The Shinano Kingdom has been in chaos for a hundred years. The general of Shinano of the Murakami family and the guardian of Shinano of the Ogasawara family have overlapping responsibilities.
Now that the Takeda family controls most of Shinano, the shogunate might as well remove the service duties of these two families and let the Takeda family serve as the guardians of Shinano to maintain local peace.
You say, okay? "
Takeda Harunobu smiled and spoke, but Shiba Yoshigan's face darkened, and finally glared at Takeda Harunobu.
This bastard takes it too far!
Among the conditions that the two of them had negotiated privately before, Shinano's protection was not included. She put forward this condition at a time when the trend of the Takeda retainers group was about to change, and defeated Shiba Yoshigan's army.
The Takeda retainers group had just relaxed their attitude and wanted to go south, but their internal opinions were not unified yet.
If Yoshigan Shiba rejects Takeda Harunobu's proposal at this time, the sincerity of the peace negotiation will be questioned by the Takeda retainers group.
The suppressed pro-Hojo forces within the Takeda family have room to operate again. Negotiating peace on Kawanaka Island and adding new variables to the Takeda family's southward strategy.
The purpose of Shiba Yoshigan's giving so many benefits was to get the Takeda family to go south and create trouble for the Hojo family. At this point, if it starts but ends, it will seriously interfere with the progress of the Kanto strategy.
Shiba Yoshigami laughed angrily, looking at the smiling Takeda Harunobu, he was furious. This guy was definitely waiting here to trick me on purpose.
As time passed, Yoshigami's silence made Takeda's retainers change from expectations to doubts, and then began to feel uneasy.
Shiba Yiyin sighed and said.
"I will come forward to coordinate with His Highness Murakami and His Highness Ogasawara and suggest that they give up their service positions in Shinano.
After that, I will report to the shogunate and appoint the Takeda family as the guardian of Shinano. "
Takeda Harunobu seemed relaxed, but in fact, he was extremely nervous.
She didn't want the negotiation to fail, but she still took a gamble so that the Takeda family could occupy Shinano without any trouble.
Now that his dream has come true, Takeda Harunobu can't help but clench his right hand and feel happy in his heart.
The Takeda family has become the guardian of the two kingdoms of Kai and Shinano, and can finally officially represent the Koshin samurai group and go out to conquer the world.
Seeing Takeda Harunobu's uncontrollable joy, Shiba Yoshigan said another sentence.
"But I have a condition."
Takeda Harunobu frowned slightly and asked respectfully.
"Please speak, please."
"I want the Takeda family to return the relatives, retainers, wealthy families, and allies of the Ogasawara and Murakami families who have been kidnapped over the years."
Takeda Harunobu was stunned and looked a little embarrassed.
Kai was poor and short of money, and the most criticized aspect of the Takeda family after they went abroad to conquer the country was the sale of prisoners of war and their relatives.
Especially during the Battle of Hokushin, all samurai loyal to the Murakami family near Yantian City were sold off to Kai Country. Although strategically it was a once and for all solution, it also became a huge stain on the Takeda family.
Sibo Yiyin said coldly.
"When two armies clash, the defeated loses their territory and even their lives. But selling the local samurai family as slaves would hurt the Takeda family's popularity too much.
The Murakami family and the Ogasawara family have lived in Shinano country for a long time, and they have many relatives and friends. Now that I have been completely ruined by the Takeda family, how can I have the nerve to speak to your two highnesses?
Should His Highness Takeda express his sincerity first so as to gain the understanding of the two His Highnesses? "
Takeda Harunobu was said to be speechless, Shiba Yoshigan took all the moral rights, and the Takeda family really could not refute.
But of the Takeda families that have been trafficked over the years, who knows how many are still under the control of the Takeda family?
Those who disappeared, those who were killed, those who were tortured to death, those who were scattered to various families as slaves. It is not a simple matter to identify, gather and return the remaining people.
Shiba Yiyin didn't bother to care about her troubles, he was just deliberately looking for trouble.
When Yoshigan Shiba helped the Takeda family ask for Shinano's protection, it was nothing more than an order from Mitsurugi, and it was enough to report it to the shogunate afterwards.
The shogunate has been ruined like this, and they don't bother to care about who is king and hegemony in the mountains of the two countries. At most, Ashikaga Yoshiteru is unhappy. After all, the relationship between the Takeda family and the Ashikaga family is not good.
Yoshigan Shiba must take care of and appease the emotions of the Murakami and Ogasawara families, who can serve as a buffer for Echigo. This is for the long-term peace and stability of Beixin and not to affect the progress of the Kanto strategy.
Therefore, he wants to seek justice for both families in order to gain their gratitude. Then he changed his mind and gave the guardianship of Shinano to Takeda Harunobu.
Takeda Harunobu saw Shiba Yoshigan's serious face and knew that this matter would not get through.
It was she who went back on her word first and caught Sibo Yiyin off guard by temporarily increasing the price. Sibo Yiyin's counterattack was also reasonable.
The two negotiating parties are of equal strength, and Takeda Harunobu cannot only take advantage but not suffer losses.
She smiled.
"What Yutai said is right, I agree."
