- Heavy snow covered the ground, and the bodies left on the ground were buried in the snow casually.
At this moment, dark clouds were hanging down in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, there was another burst of fine and dense snow, falling down.
The cold wind blew against their faces, and everyone felt a biting sensation.
Hearing Li Zhengyan¡¯s words, Mochizuki Nobunaga had blocked his reinforcements, with a look of disbelief on his face.
In fact, in order to deceive Takeda Nobushige, he took advantage of Yamato's military strength and did not mobilize a single soldier. Even after the Musashi Corps attacked Honnoji Temple last night and left some parts to control Kyoto, in fact, all that could be mobilized were here. .
Mochizuki Shinyong wanted to deceive Li Zheng with his words, and after making him feel scared, he could see if he could use this to capture the opponent, which would give him a slight advantage.
" Seeing Li Zheng's confident rebuttal made him feel trembling in his heart.
Mochizuki Nobunaga raised his head and looked around, only to see Oyamada Nobushige's main formation on the hillside, which had been eliminated at some point.
The flag seal also disappeared, replaced by a large flag with a sun and moon pattern flying in the wind and snow.
On the other side of the hillside, two armies were advancing through the snow. Their red armor was particularly eye-catching against the white snow.
The military strength of the two armies was like an iron arm, and the left and right generals, Oyamada Nobushige, and the Musashi Corps were encircled.
Above the flag seal are the elite regiments of the Takeda Army, Kamioka Bei and Snake Obei.
"How can this be?"
"Kamiokabei, Snake-Obei, aren't you in Kaga? Why are you here?"
Mochizuki Shinaga looked at Li Zheng. He said: "It is true that the Li family has ulterior motives. The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole is behind. You, the Li family, watch in silence, watching me plot against Master Gongfang, Gongfang Palace, but you are secretly planning everything and achieving great success." , is not bound by the name, and regards me as a rebel."
Li Zheng shook his head and said: "Your Highness Wangyue. You are jealous of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."
"Nonsense, otherwise can you explain why I burned Honnoji Temple for only one night, why did Kamiokabe and Snakebi appear here?" Mochizuki Nobunaga stared at Li Zheng fiercely.
Li Zhengyan said: "Yes, my father secretly stationed Kamigang Bei and Snake Tail Bei here, but the purpose is not to rebel, but to worry that Duke Chao Yue will turn against him one day, which will be detrimental to our Li family, so he specially sent these two. Prepare your troops. Camp here and support me."
Mochizuki Nobunaga laughed for the first time and said: "Do you think I will believe it? I think you are the one who is really good at appearance and appearance. Mr. Yakata, the general of the Konoe, you are the ones who are scheming. I am far inferior. It's ridiculous. I¡¯m still having a big dream and I don¡¯t want to wake up.¡±
When Li Zheng heard this, he did not explain it and said, "If your Highness Wangyue can believe it, then believe it. If you don't believe it, it's okay. When the time comes, please go to Father and explain!"
"Mr. Yakata?"
Mochizuki Nobunaga looked around and saw nearly a hundred horse-riding warriors at the foot of the mountain, clustered around a tall middle-aged man wearing a large cloak.
This man is tall and tall, with very different eyes. If he is not Li Xiao, who else could he be?
Waiting for Li Xiao¡¯s own Li character flag to appear. Takeda Nobuntoyo and Oyamada Nobushige both looked at each other.
As for the Musashi Legion and the Ashigaru of the Oyamada Army, seeing the opponent's well-trained elite troops, they surrounded them on the left and right, and they no longer had the will to fight.
"Raise the gun!"
The Takeda Army's Iron Cannon Ashigaru raised their volleys.
"Ha ha!"
A series of long laughter echoed across the plain.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Mochizuki Nobuyong looked up to the sky and smiled, and saw him smiling with tears streaming down his face.
"Nobunaga!"
Takeda Nobutoyo on the side couldn't help but look sad.
Mochizuki Shinaga wiped his face with his leather-covered hands, wiped away his tears, and said to Li Zhengyan: "Even Mr. Yakata is here. What else can I say? I have been defeated completely. This rebellion was all my idea, and my brother was coerced by me, but I hope Mr. Yakata will spare his life because of his past kindness, is that okay?"
Li Zheng saw Mochizuki Nobunaga saying this and remained silent at the moment. This was a crime of treason. It was impossible for Takeda Nobutoyo to survive.
Seeing Li Zheng's face, Mochizuki Nobunaga couldn't help but laugh at himself and said: "Let you go, this big dream in Kyoto is over. One day Takeda Ryo will change to the sun and moon double pattern. It seems to me that It¡¯s not here anymore.¡±
After saying that, Mochizuki Nobunaga unsaddled and dismounted, threw aside his armor and swords, sat cross-legged in the snow beside the horse, and lowered his head deeply.
"Coward!"
Nobushige OyamadaSeeing Mochizuki Nobunaga like this, he yelled angrily, drew his sword and said: "Retreat with me!"
The horse¡¯s hooves rolled and kicked up the slush.
At present, Oyamada Nobushige led a cavalry team of fifty or sixty Oyamada family members to retreat before the encirclement was closed.
"My lord, do you want to pursue us?" General Sun and Moon Bei Tsuchiya Masahiro asked for instructions.
Li Xiao, who was under the banner of the Li flag, smiled when he saw it, waved his hand, and said: "If you want to create more troubles, you only need to capture Takeda Nobunaga and Mochizuki Nobunaga. Nownow this Oyamada Nobushige can still Where to run."
"Exactly."
The generals couldn¡¯t help but smile on their faces.
Li Xiao waved his horsewhip forward and said: "This rebellion is enough. Let them put down their weapons and surrender. I will only kill the culprits and ignore others!"
"Descend!"
"Descend!"
"Descend!"
The soldiers on Li Xiao¡¯s side said in unison.
The besieged army saw Mochizuki Nobunaga dismounting and surrendering, and Oyamada Nobushige rode away again, and they no longer had the will to fight.
Before Takeda Nobuntoyo could speak, all the ashigaru threw their spears on the ground one after another, with a dazed look in their eyes.
Seeing this, Takeda Nobutoyo smiled miserably, then rode out on horseback, heading straight for Li Xiao.
With a wave of his hand, Tsuchiya Masahiro, Hizukibi's mounted warriors separated into eight knights and surrounded Takeda Nobutoyo.
Li Xiao waved his hand and said, "Let him come over."
Takeda Nobutoyo stopped three rooms in front of Li Xiaoma and threw away his weapon. He knelt down in front of Li Xiao and said, "Master, I have come to ask for forgiveness from you."
Hearing Takeda Nobuhiro¡¯s name as master, Li Xiao couldn¡¯t help but feel troubled in his heart. When he was in Kawanakajima, he was under the command of Takeda Nobunaga. At that time, he was the Sinology master of Takeda Nobuhiro and Mochizuki Nobuhiro, and he couldn¡¯t help but think of the days before his eyes.
At that time, Takeda Nobuyo was the same age. Even younger than Li Zheng, he chased Li Xiao around asking questions all day long, talking about the story of the Three Kingdoms.
Mochizuki Shinaga was still a taciturn child at the time, and only when Li Xiao told the story of the Three Kingdoms did a smile appear on his face.
Time has passed, and nearly twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye.
"As for Takeda Nobunaga, Mochizuki Nobunaga has now become a prisoner. They treated Takeda Nobushige favorably at the beginning and valued them. I don¡¯t know whether I will live or die right now.
Li Xiao immediately jumped off the horse, waved his hand to the left and right to retreat, walked to Takeda Nobutoyo, and said: "The matter has reached this point, and it is difficult to recover. What is the point of asking me to apologize at this moment?"
Takeda Nobuntoyo was stunned. Suddenly, he felt so sad that he lay down in front of Li Xiao and cried bitterly.
"Master, I was wrong! I was wrong!"
Takeda Nobuntoyo said sadly.
Seeing this scene, Li Xiao also felt sad. He hugged Takeda Nobutoyo's shoulders, his eyes were also red.
"This mess, at this point, should finally be over."
Heavy snow fell, and soon Li Xiao¡¯s helmet and cloak were covered with a layer of white.
The sky and the earth are silent. Only the sound of heavy snow falling was left.
??The New Year of the ninth year of Tianzheng was still spent in Kyoto amid a heavy snowfall.
The turmoil in Kyoto at the end of the year was quickly and effectively put down after one night, and the lives of the people did not suffer too much turmoil.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡
The bell sounds leisurely.
Kyoto. Tenryuji Temple.
An eye-catching Western-style four-wheeled carriage stopped at the entrance of Tianlong Temple.
Surrounding the carriage were all brightly armored horseback samurai, and behind the queue were groups of ashigaru carrying iron cannons.
The carriage door opened, and Li Xiao, wearing hunting clothes, got out of the carriage.
The person on the side quickly held an umbrella to cover him from the falling snow.
Standing in front of the Dade Temple, as far as the eye can see, the sky and the earth are all monotonous white, with snowflakes flying and circling all over the sky with the coldness and desolation of winter.
Li Xiao coughed lightly, took the umbrella from the side, and strode into the door of Tianlong Temple.
In the temple, the warriors of the Li family were densely packed and heavily guarded.
Li Xiao turned a blind eye to all this, stepped directly into the middle gate, passed through the main hall, and went directly to the depths of the courtyard.
Here, Li Xiao stopped his hand, indicating that he did not have to follow, and walked into the courtyard alone.
In front of a thatched cottage, counting?The winter plum blossoms bloom against the snow.
Takeda Nobushige, who has a striking scar on his forehead, has his eyes closed at the moment, holding a rosary in one hand and quietly tapping the wooden fish with the other.
Li Xiao didn¡¯t speak, but sat by the corridor and waited silently.
After a long time, Takeda Nobushige finished his homework without even glancing at Li Xiao. He packed up the scriptures in front of him and said calmly: "Master Yakata, what do you mean when you come here to visit?"
Li Xiaoyan said: "I came here to visit Master Chaoyue."
Having said this, Li Xiao paused and said: "This is the main mountain of the Linji Sect of Tianlong Temple, and it is the head of the five mountains in Kyoto. Chao Yue Gong is practicing here far away from Huilin Temple. I wonder if I can get used to it?"
Takeda Nobunaga said: "It's all a practice. As long as the heart can meditate, it doesn't matter whether it's in Kai or Kyoto, or even if there's no tile above your head, it's the same."
Li Xiao nodded and said: "That's right."
Let¡¯s talk. Li Xiao stood up, walked to Takeda Nobushige¡¯s door, and asked, ¡°Can we come in and talk in detail?¡±
Takeda Nobushige raised his head, looked at Li Xiaoyan and said, "No need to be polite, Mr. Yakata, please."
At the moment, Li Xiao and Takeda Nobushige were sitting cross-legged opposite each other.
Takeda Nobushige asked: "How are the preparations for Mr. Otate's funeral?"
Li Xiaoyan said: "Preparations are already underway at Daitoku Temple in Kyoto. All the retainers of our family, as well as famous people from all over the world, will be invited to come together to pay their respects. When the time comes, the mourning ceremony will be carried out by His Highness Nodo Dao of the Umino family."
"Oh, is it the Umino family? I haven't seen this child yet. Is his father okay?"
Li Xiao replied: "Yes. His Highness Haiye is blind, but he has always been in good health."
Hearing this, Takeda Nobushige nodded with satisfaction and said: "That's good. So, after Lord Otate, His Highness Nobuyoshi will succeed the family governor?"
Li Xiao said frankly: "Yes, I have this intention. His Highness Xindao has also decided to change the name of Miao from Haiye back to Takeda. This is his personal decision, but whether to take over as the governor of the family still needs to be discussed with the retainers of the family. Only then can it be finally decided.¡±
"There is no need to discuss it. I believe this child is good and can serve as the governor of my family. In fact, the only descendant of my brother is his." Takeda Nobushige nodded.
Speaking of which. Takeda Nobushige suddenly asked: "I remember that your grandson also has the blood of my family. Given your ambition, why don't you let his Miao name be Takeda so that he can inherit the family governor?"
"My ambition?" Li Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Chao Yue Gong is joking. Zheng'er refuses to change his bloodline to his surname Miao, and of course I don't want to either."
hehe.
Takeda Nobushige suddenly laughed and said: "What a Li Xiao, you almost deceived me. Why don't you want to change the character to Miao? It's just a delaying tactic."
"You want to temporarily support the throne. Let Nodomi serve as the governor of the family. After the Kyushu and Shikoku Chosogabu, Otomo, Shimazu and other daimyo are pacified, you can eradicate the retainers who are dissatisfied with you in the family. Finally, you can conquer the world."
Speaking of this, Takeda Nobushige said with a solemn expression: "Based on your ambition and power, of course you will not do anything to achieve real disaster in vain at this time."
"You want to be Cao Cao, Sima Yi, be patient and wait until the world is truly stable. You might as well let your descendants do this usurping the throne again and come to Benneng Temple again, right?"
"Is this how you can maintain your loyalty and realize your ambitions at the same time?"
Li Xiao looked at Takeda Nobushige, shook his head and said: "Chaoyue Gong, no one can predict what will happen after my death. Even if I have this ambition, there is nothing I can do if my descendants don't do it. Maybe I don't have this ambition. But the descendants still want to do it, and there is nothing they can do about it.¡±
"But no matter what, Takeda is very kind to my Li family. All the descendants of my Li family will maintain the lineage of the clan. Duke Chaoyue can rest assured about this."
" Takeda Nobushige was stunned for a while and said: "As far as seeking to usurp the throne, it is already a good step for you to do this. So I won't interfere anymore. Hmm, what's the point of interfering?"
"Even if my Takeda family gains the world, there is no world that has ever prospered since then. In the end, it will only be prosperous for another season. Just like the cold plum outside the house, even if it survives this winter, it will eventually wither."
Li Xiao looked at the clusters of plum blossoms outside the house, but was meditating.
In fact, the world has been decided for the moment. As the first retainer of the Takeda family, the Li family has actually taken control of the center, elevating the Zong family, which is equivalent to having the power to manage the family. At the same time, among the four positions, the position of head of the service station is Already in his own hands.
In addition, such as Tokugawa, Sanada, Satake, and Hosokawa,Kyogoku and the Li family are now in the same spirit, advancing and retreating together.
The Mori family was divided into three and no longer had the strength to compete with the main family. After the Hojo was weakened, they settled in Kanto and did not have the strength to intervene in the shogunate.
Among the seven heads of the shogunate, it is actually Li Zheng's turn to speak. As for whether the Takeda clan is abolished or not, and whether Ashikaga Yoshiaki is still in office as shogun, it has no impact on the overall situation.
The power of the shogunate is already in the hands of the Li family.
In the next step, Li Zheng only needs ten years to pacify the Four Kingdoms and Kyushu in sequence. Then among the sixty-six countries in Japan, there is already the Li family's Wu family world.
As an uncrowned king, all that is missing is a name and righteousness. Whether this name and righteousness is revealed or not depends on the moods of Li Zheng and even Li Yun.
As the first generation of the Li family, Li Xiao has truly fulfilled his heavy responsibility at this moment.
Since ancient times, those who have dominated the world have always felt at peace after achieving success, and Li Xiao is no exception.
Takeda Nobushige said: "The flowers have bloomed for another season, don't you feel lonely, Mr. Yakata? Even if your Li family conquers the world in the future, so what, it will last for hundreds of years, but it will disappear in an instant."
"Life is just a big dream. I wonder if Mr. Yakata, when he suddenly wakes up one day, will realize that all this has been in a dream. He is still in the house of his hometown, controlling the people of the Ming Dynasty. Get up early Plowing the fields and going home late to sleep, what will Mr. Yakata think about it then?"
Takeda Nobushige¡¯s words suddenly touched Li Xiao¡¯s inner thoughts.
As a time-traveler, he came to Japan during the Warring States Period, and all of this was incredible.
???????? Nagashino and Sekihara, their own wives and sons.
His experiences and those of his relatives seemed to be just a long dream, only slightly realistic.
Is it true, as Nobunaga said, that fifty years in this world are both a dream and an illusion?
Thinking of this, Li Xiao smiled slightly and asked: "Then Mr. Chao Yue, if you really think that life is also a dream, then why do you drink water and eat? Once you die, can't you wake up from the dream? ?¡±
Takeda Nobushige was silent.
Li Xiao stood up, looked at the plum blossoms, and said: "Chaoyue Gong is a person who was born in the world. Buddhism talks about emptiness, saying that there is no good or evil in the world, and everything he does is nothing but a dream. Everything you do with your heart, In the end, everything is like a mirror and a mirror."
"I don't deny that this has its significance, but does this encourage people to do nothing, to abandon everything and not care about anything. This is not enough to understand the world."
Takeda Nobushige sneered and said: "If everything is nothingness, what's the point of going to the latitude and longitude?"
Li Xiaoyan said: "As you said, flowers bloom again and again, so since the flowers know they are going to wither, don't they just bloom?"
Takeda Nobushige looked at Li Xiaoyi and pondered what he said.
"Everything has its own nature. Buddhism also says that one can see one's nature clearly. If a person is born to eat, he should eat. If he wants to drink, he should drink water. Since I came to this warring country and in these troubled times, if I didn't see what I saw, , If you don¡¯t draw your sword and stand up, you are going against your true intention. Even if it is really a dream, so what.¡±
"As for whether the Li family can succeed in the world in the future, it depends on the children and grandchildren. I don't care. If one day my Li family loses its virtue, someone with the ability should take over. This is a cycle of troubled times. If it is because of fear of loss, we will not To do something is to do nothing!"
Hearing what Li Xiao said, Takeda Nobushige shook his head and said: "Sophistry! Sophistry!"
Li Xiao smiled at this and stopped explaining.
PS: The finale is tomorrow.
