Tsutsui Shunren was tossing and turning in a residence in Tanabe Castle.
Today's first meeting with Isshiki Yoshiyuki did not achieve the expected results, and the other party even took the initiative. Tsutsui Shunren knew that this was not a good phenomenon.
Now that the Isshiki family is pressing down on the country, they already have the initiative, while the Kyogoku family is the passive party. Tsutsui Junren's mission this time is to turn passivity into initiative and let Isshiki Yoshiyuki fall into his own rhythm.
But now Tsutsui Shunren has no rhythm at all, and is instead installed by Isshiki Yoshiyuki.
Early the next morning, Tsutsui Shunren appeared in front of Isshiki Yoshiyuki with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
Looking at Tsutsui Junren who was a little depressed, Isshiki Yoshiyuki secretly smiled inwardly, then stepped forward and pulled Tsutsui Junren over affectionately and said, "How did Master Shunren sleep well last night?"
"I have ordered people to prepare meals, and we are waiting for Master Shunlian!"
Faced with Yoshiyuki Isshiki, who suddenly became enthusiastic, Junren Tsutsui suddenly felt at a loss.
Illusion!
right! It's all an illusion!
Tsutsui Shunlian kept comforting himself in his heart.
"Doctor Sakyo-dono really flattered the poor monk!"
"Wherever, Master Shunlian is a guest from afar, and I should do my best to show my friendship as a landlord!"
"Master Shunlian please!" As he said that, Isshiki Yoshiyuki stepped aside to let Tsutsui Shunlian pass.
Tsutsui Shunlian no longer gave in, and quickly walked to a seat next to the main seat and sat down.
After everyone sat down, Isshiki Yoshiyuki slowly said: "As we all know, Wakasa is the old leader of my Isshiki family. In the past, the Takeda family shamelessly captured Wakasa!"
"Now my family, Chen Bingruojiao, wants to regain the old territory!"
"Master Shunlian is here this time to be a witness for our family! Today's drinking rights should be an early celebration for our family. When we regain the old territory in the future, we will have a banquet with you at Goze Mountain Castle!" Isshiki Yoshiyuki His opening remarks were so powerful that he made Tsutsui Shunren stunned for a moment.
However, Tsutsui Shunren was not easy to fool. After thinking about it for a while, he roughly guessed the purpose of Isshiki Yoshiyuki's words.
It's nothing more than a posture of "I swear I won't return Wakasa if I don't take it away" to scare the Kyogoku family.
If the Kyogoku family was still the same salted fish as before, Ii Shunlian would really do this. However, the Kyogoku family now has hundreds of thousands of stone tomoyuki in Kitaomi, Kitaise, and Wakasa, and their strength is comparable to that of others. Home is several times stronger.
Under this situation, Tsutsui Shunren didn't panic at all.
Thinking of this, Tsutsui Shunren immediately said, "Doctor Sakyo seems to be determined to win Wakasa?"
"Wakasa is experiencing war for the first time, and the country is in chaos. Even if the Kyogoku family intervenes, you are still not on a stable footing! At this time, tens of thousands of troops from our family are attacking Wakasa, and the Asakura family is on the side to respond. Can't it still be done? Huh?" Isshiki Yoshiyuki said with a smile on his face.
Seeing Isshiki Yoshiyuki suddenly mention the Asakura family, Tsutsui Shunren's expression changed slightly, thinking that the Isshiki family had reached some kind of indescribable PY deal with the Asakura family.
But on second thought, it seemed impossible.
If the Isshiki family was really determined to win Wakasa, there would be no reason to join forces with the Asakura family.
Because the Asakura family is also coveted, even if they join forces with the Asakura family to force the Kyogoku family away, the next thing the two families will face is how to distribute the fruits of victory. The strength of the Isshiki family is compared to that of the Asakura family. That is a huge difference. At that time, I am afraid that not only Wakasawa will lose the Isshiki family, but Tango's old capital will also be lost.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for the Isshiki family to join forces with the Asakura family. This is undoubtedly seeking the skin of a tiger.
Isshiki Yoshiyuki deliberately mentioned the Asakura family, probably just to put pressure on himself.
After thinking about this, Tsutsui Shunlian immediately said righteously: "It is undeniable that our family has indeed intervened in Wakasa's affairs, and I don't want to hide anything. Our family does have the intention to control Wakasa."
"But aren't the Echizen Asakura family just too ambitious?"
"Although the current situation is that our family controls the situation in Wakasa, if the Isshiki family and the Asakura family jointly attack Wakasa, then who will have the final say in Wakasa?"
"Is it my Kyogoku family? Or the Asakura family, or the Isshiki family?"
"It seems that the Isshiki family is the one least likely to dominate the situation, right?" Tsutsui Shunren looked at Isshiki Yoshiyuki calmly and said.
Isshiki Yoshiyuki unconsciously placed his right hand on the desk in front of him and started tapping rhythmically. Then he slowly raised his head and looked at Tsutsui Shunren and said, "Master Shunren doesn't seem to be optimistic about our strategy this time?"
"It's not that I'm not optimistic, but it's simply impossible for you to recapture Wakasa between my family and the Asakura family!"
"Whether it is the Asakura family or the Asakura family, no one can match you in terms of military strength or strength. If the Isshiki family intervenes in Wakasa, not only will they not be able to get what they want, but they will lose the great situation they have established now!"
"As we all know, in recent generations, the heads of the Isshiki family have not been able to gain any advantage in their fights with the Takeda family. Not only have several heads been killed, but the Kazuo County has also been lost."
"Now I don't care about the Isshiki family taking back Kasa County. After all, Kasa County was Tango's territory! But Wakasa is now under the Takeda family, and the new head of the Takeda family was supported by my family, so I am It is absolutely impossible to give up on Wakasa.”
"Whether it's the Isshiki family or the Asakura family, as long as they dare to raise troops to attack, our Kyogoku family will definitely fight back until death!" When he said this, Tsutsui Junren's tone became a little more serious.
There is nothing I can do, with the support of the Kyogoku family, I, Junren Tsutsui, am so tough!
After hearing Tsutsui Junren's words, many of the retainers of the Isshiki family showed anger, but they did not dare to explode directly due to the look in Isshiki Yoshiyuki's eyes. They just looked at Tsutsui Junren with a tit-for-tat look.
"Master Shunlian is so confident that the Kyogoku family can defend Wakasa under the attacks from the left and right of the main family and the Asakura family?"
"Why not?"
"My Kyogoku family now has hundreds of thousands of Shi Zhixing, and the number of troops that can be mobilized in our territory is not less than 50,000. Why should we be afraid?"
"To say the least, our Kyogoku family is not alone!"
"As we all know, our family and the leader of the Hosokawa family are allies! Now that the Hosokawa family has reconciled with the Rokkaku family, if the war goes unfavorably, we only need a letter from our family asking for help, and the Hosokawa Ukyo family will be able to send troops to support!"
"Looking at it now, what do we have to fear?"
It was finally his turn to pretend to be B. After Tsutsui Shunren said these words, he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
Talking?
Let me ask you who Tsutsui Shunren is afraid of!
With a strong supporter behind me, I can straighten my back even outside!
This feels so good!
After Tsutsui Junren finished speaking, Isshiki Yoshiyuki and all the retainers of the Isshiki family fell silent.
Yes, one Kyogoku family is powerful enough. The key is that behind this powerful Kyogoku family there is an even more powerful Hosokawa family.
Wakasa’s bone is not easy to chew!
