    Suruga Country is the easternmost branch country on the Tokaido Road. It is connected to Kai Country via the Fujikawa Mountain Road to the north, to Sagami Country via the Hakone Mountains natural barrier to the east, and to the east of Clearwater, it is connected to Izu Country. It is the only way from Kanto and Koshin to Kinki.  .  +¡ôWhoever occupies Suruga is equivalent to strangling Kanto and Koshinobu by the throat. It is self-evident that the position is important.  " Moreover, there is constant traffic and business travel, and the land output is nearly 150,000 dan.  Abe Gold Mountain in the north of Suruga, Fuji Gold can mine gold equivalent to 70,000 kangan every year.  The so-called overlord's capital refers to this place.  Masara spread a map of mountains and rivers on the ground on the top floor of Sunpu Castle Castle, and marked his own sphere of influence with the family crest of the Luo family. Although he was still using the guise of the Imagawa family to the outside world at this time, in fact at this time  The Imagawa family has been controlled by the Luo family, and the Suruga country, Toe country and part of the Mikawa country controlled by the Imagawa family are actually considered the territory of the Luo family.  To the west of Junfu City, there is Shougini trying to persuade him to surrender, and he will soon be under his control.  Although a lot of the two gold mountains are currently under my actual control, there is no need to worry as the gold cannot escape if it is buried underground.  The Hakone Mountains separate the Hojo family to the east, and following the death of the Sagami lion of the Hojo clan, Yasu, and his successor, the Hojo clan, was besieged in Edo Castle, at this time, the Hojo family was once again being coveted by the powerful powers of Kanto.  There was no time to worry about the situation of the Imagawa family.  The only one who is worried is the Takeda family. The Takeda family has just ended its fourth battle with the Uesugi family on Kawanakajima in the Shinano area.  In the north of Suruga Country on the map, the Fujikawa Mountain Road was specially drawn with a red line by Yamamoto Kansuke, and the dangerous places were specially marked.  The top priority is to block this place.  The tigers were trapped in Kai Country and Shinano Country.  The only way to gain time is to quickly sort out the internal affairs of the newly unified Imagawa family.  "After pacifying Suruga. To the west, we can defeat Tokugawa, and to the east, we can enter Koshin and Kanto. In addition, we can add the territory of Kyushu, Saikuni, and Shikoku regions. At this time, we are in a good position. As long as we don't take risks personally, we will be invincible.  Land." Thinking of this, Zheng Liang was really satisfied, so he walked to the observation deck and took a look outside.  The scenery of the castle town immediately came into view.  Looking at such a scene, Zheng Liang couldn't help but recite a poem: "I want to ride the wind into the east and defeat two hundred thousand soldiers." Of course, if at this time there was a servant around him who responded to the situation and said, "My lord, what a poem! What a poem."  !¡± is even better.  Unfortunately, not only were there no attendants, the castle town of Sunfu was not a beautiful place either. The left town was destroyed by the fire in the second year of Eiroku.  That fire was personally planned and executed by the Luo Family's Intelligence Pavilion.  Looking at the ruins on the left side of the city, Zhengliang would not blame himself for this, but he was also a little unmotivated. ???????????????????? Later.  Zhengliang returned to the castle tower, and only then did he find a square brocade box on the floor.  This was sent by the retainer from the residence of the governor of Sunfu Castle after taking over Sunpu Castle. It was said to be an heirloom of the Imagawa family. He had always remembered the marked map before, but had forgotten this treasure, so he opened it immediately  The brocade box.  "This is the Chidori Incense Burner!" After opening the brocade box, Zhengliang couldn't help but said to himself in surprise.  He saw that the Imagawa family treasure that appeared in front of him was made of celadon, and the lid was decorated with a lifelike red bird.  Immediately, Zhengliang remembered its legend and took out the incense burner with his hand.  With a "chirp" sound, the red bird immediately made a sound.  There was no doubt that this was really a treasure of the Imagawa family. Masara held up the lid and held it up to the candlelight. The printed halo was even and the color was clear.  With a gentle touch, he played with it several times in his hand before putting it back into the brocade box.  Masara was naturally happy to have obtained the Imagawa family's valuable treasure. However, after receiving an urgent report from the Intelligence Cabinet, Masara became a little unhappy.  "Damn Takeda Shingen!" It turned out that Takeda Shingen finally took action in response to the situation of the Imakawa family. He first dispatched a team of troops, in the name of rescuing the Sunfu Imagawa family, from Kai Country.  It has slowly come to the border of Suruga Country.  At the same time, there were also a lot of rumors in the Mikawa and Toe Province areas. It was bluntly stated that the Takeda family would leave Shinano Country and enter Mikawa Country, also to support the Suruga Imagawa family.  Although the Suruga Imagawa family has been unified by the Toe Imakawa family at this time, with Takeda Shingen's temperament, this is just an excuse for him to covet the Imagawa family's territory, so even if he knows that the Imagawa family's civil strife is over, he still  It won't stop here.  For a time, the Tokaido area was once again turbulent.  At the same time, in the Tokugawa family, Tokugawa Ieyasu was also troubled by rumors that the Takeda family was about to enter Mikawa Kingdom.  At first, after returning to Okazaki Castle, Tokugawa Ieyasu would swim in the Sugao River every day to keep fit, usually until late autumn. Of course, sometimes, he would change swimming to hunting.  ? ?On this day, after coming out of Okazaki Castle, Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was in his thirties, turned left and right from Rhinoceros Cliff until he came to the plain near Okazaki Castle, chasing his prey on the open plain.  On the surface he pretended to be hunting, but in his heart he was really thinking hard about how to deal with Kai's beast that was about to take action.  After handing the captured hare to the attendant, he came to the stream that is a tributary of Majin River, looked at the dark clouds in the sky, and suddenly stopped: "Call Xiaoping Tai." "Yes." "Let the falcon rest for a while.  , I also want to rest here." After the attendant left, Tokugawa Ieyasu sat down in the withered grass.  The next battle will be the turning point of fate.  If Takeda Shingen, the Tiger of Kai, really intends to invade Mikawa Kingdom, then the Imagawa family, as its ally, is likely to give way. Then the Tokugawa family will become the first opponent that the Takeda family has to deal with, even if it is  The alliance between the Imagawa family and the Takeda family has been affected or even torn apart due to the civil strife of the Imagawa family. However, the Imagawa family, which has more strategic depth, can completely give up the territory in the eastern part of Mikawa Kingdom, thus allowing the Tokugawa family to resist the Takeda family.  of the front.  Therefore, no matter what the situation is, a head-on confrontation between the Tokugawa family and the Takeda family is bound to happen.  This made Tokugawa Ieyasu restless.  Worry and fear can only lead to tragic consequences.  He remembered that when he was a boy in Junfu, he often heard Zen Master Xue Zhai admonishing: Don't panic when things happen.  At a critical moment, you should open your eyes and look at the sky.  That way.  Reason and impulse, good times and bad times.  It will become clear naturally.  If severe winter comes.  No matter how mighty a warrior is, he cannot resist, no matter how brilliant a counselor is, he cannot escape.  If there is a possibility of resistance and escape, it is entirely due to the distortion of the mind of the person involved.  That kind of twisted mind is like the source of confusion, and confusion will inevitably lead to failure Tokugawa Ieyasu thought that the admonitions of Zen Master Seizhai had been deposited in his body. He did not want to face the hurricane of Kai, but he still could not suppress the wavering in his heart.  Fight or give way?  Which option is more beneficial?  If he gives way, Takeda Shingen may pass by with his troops.  Wouldn¡¯t you attack Okazaki Castle?  This is really difficult to determine. After all, in Tokugawa Ieyasu's view, Takeda Shingen's past behavior in the Takeda family (well, Takeda Shingen's rebellion to expel his father, marry his sister, and tear up allies in order to seize the Shinano region  The covenant and other actions indeed made the Sengoku daimyo around the Takeda family not to believe in Takeda Shingen's faith), and any of his promises cannot be believed.  Moreover, this still does not solve the problem. Even if Takeda Shingen does not attack Okazaki Castle, Tokugawa Ieyasu will naturally become a vassal of the Takeda clan (after all, unless Tokugawa Ieyasu surrenders. Otherwise, it is impossible for Takeda Shingen not to attack Okazaki  The city, the above-mentioned non-attack was just considering whether Takeda Shingen would take the opportunity to annex the Tokugawa family after surrendering to the Takeda family).  But he couldn't let his soldiers and family members make unnecessary sacrifices.  Just as he was staring at the dark clouds in the sky and thinking hard, a chuckle suddenly came from the thatch around him.  "Who is it?" Tokugawa Ieyasu suddenly turned his head, and saw his retainer Kanbara Kohei Taiyasu Masamasa coming over in high spirits, carrying a bloody hare, and said: "My lord, you don't look good?" Now, the retainers  Generally speaking, Tokugawa Ieyasu is no longer called "Lord" but instead "Sir". Only Kanbara Kohei Taiyamasa, Saruzuo and Motoadaka still call him Lord as before.  "Xiaoheita, what's so funny!" Tokugawa Ieyasu deliberately scolded.  Kanwara Kohei Taiyasumasa laughed loudly again: "My lord, his expression is as alert as this rabbit." "Hmph!" Tokugawa Ieyasu looked at the rabbit in Kanwara Kohei Taiyasumasa's hand, "You mean I'm afraid of Takeda Shingen?"  "Hahaha, fearless people never lose weight." The sixteen-year-old Koheta Yasumasa Kanhara has grown more powerful and brave, "My lord, you promised to take Aai from Naxi Township as your concubine, but so far, you have not fulfilled it.  Promise." "Don't talk about women and children in the wilderness. Sit down." "I will sit down. But the woman who lives in my uncle's house is still unmarried. I feel heartbroken when I think about her haggard appearance.  "After Kanhara Kohei Taiyasu finished speaking sarcastically, he sat down and said, "My lord is not afraid of Kai's dwarf, right?" "You mean Yama Prefecture Ranrobei?" Tokugawa Ieyasu snorted.  The famous general of the Takeda family, Ranrobei Masakei of Yamagata, was a small man less than four feet in length. After putting on armor, he looked even smaller.  "Do you think I will be afraid of Changkei?" Tokugawa Ieyasu glanced at Hara Kohei Taiyasu Masa, and turned his attention to the mountains connecting the borders of Kai, Shinshu and Ene.  The Takeda family on the other side of the mountain is undoubtedly making various preparations for entering Beijing.  As soon as Takeda Shingen leaves Kofu, tens of thousands of troops will be ushered in within a few days.  Tokugawa Ieyasu's current territory is only tens of thousands of koku, and he can face it head-on.??'s army can number up to five or six thousand people.  Of course, he would turn to his ally Oda Nobunaga for help.  But at this time, how many troops can Oda Nobunaga, who is fully attacking Ise Country, allocate to support him?  "Experience is really scary." Kanbara Koheta Yasumasa added, "Foxes will turn into spirits over time, and humans seem to be the same. The master has become a different person." "Koheita! You have absolute confidence.  Defeat the Kahi Shinshu army? " "Confidence? My Lord, there is no such thing as fearless people. You are worried about Takeda Shingen's experience, but I don't think so." "You mean  " "He is so stupid! I don't think Okazaki's strong-blooded man will lose to that old fool. As long as we have the opportunity, we will attack; if we are pursued, we will retreat quickly -" "Oh.  "What if you get entangled?" "Then die." "No. Koheta has not died yet." Tokugawa Ieyasu stared blankly.  Calling Kanbaru Kohei Taiyasu Masarai, in a sense, is to get back the bloody nature from him.  But Tokugawa Ieyasu didn't expect to hear such a decisive answer.  "You've never died?" "I don't know why I was born in this world. So, I never think about life and death. My lord probably doesn't know what happened when he was born, right?" "You bastard!" I heard Xiao Pingtai ask this question.  Tokugawa Ieyasu deliberately scolded, "Don't talk nonsense. The so-called life is to carry a heavy burden and move forward step by step. Only by considering this, can you think and make decisions repeatedly without making any mistakes." "My lord is ready to fight.  Are you ready?" "That's natural!" Tokugawa Ieyasu couldn't help but be surprised.  This sentence came out of my mouth without thinking.  There is no doubt that life depends on hard work or not.  But it is undeniable that will cannot completely control a person's destiny.  What Tokugawa Ieyasu is thinking about right now is something that cannot be controlled by human power.  Why was Oda Nobunaga born in Owari, and why was Takeda Shingen born in Kai?  Tokugawa Ieyasu did not think there was much difference between Takeda Shingen's art of war and Oda Nobunaga's art of war.  Therefore, if Oda Nobunaga was born in Kai and Takeda Shingen was born in Owari, it may be Oda Nobunaga who is attacking him now, and it may be Takeda Shingen who is trying to advance from Ise Province.  ¡°In this way, the battle between Imagawa Yoshimoto and Oda Nobunaga¡¯s Tenakubo has its own destiny.  The Imagawa family, which was originally guaranteed to win, suffered a complete defeat.  If not, it would be because of the sudden appearance of Imagawa Burial Rei.  I am afraid that the Imagawa family will be destroyed, and my own Tokugawa family will not be restricted because of this. As for Oda Nobunaga, it has become stronger and stronger since then.  "Koheita, is Shichiroyoue near?" "Do you want to hear his opinion? I'll call him right away." Kanbara Koheitayasuomasa stood up and called out to Okubo Shichiroemon Tadayo.  Zhongshi is the nephew of old man Chang Yuan. Although his personality is gentler than that of his uncle, he never compromises at critical moments. He can be said to be a typical Sanhe person.  "Heita-chan, what are you yelling for?" Tadashi pushed aside the grass and walked over, "It turns out to be your lord." He saw Tokugawa Ieyasu's figure.  "It's my lord, come here and say hello." Zhongshi turned around and waved.  Behind him was a boy who looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old, with big eyes and broad ears. He walked through the bushes and followed him with a dead branch.  "Shichiro Youwei, he is" "He is my younger brother Heisuke. Heisuke, you still don't greet me!" The young man knelt down on one knee casually and said: "This little man is not Heisuke, his name is Hikozaemon Tadaka, although he is still  The Yuanfu ceremony has not been held, but the name has been given." He seemed to be dissatisfied with his brother Zhongshi's introduction and bowed his head respectfully.  "Oh, it turns out to be Shishiro's youngest son! Let me ask you. Who do you think will win in a fight between me and the Takeda family? Tell the truth." "No, I don't want to say it." Heisuke shook his head without hesitation.  "Oh? Why don't you want to say it?" Tokugawa Ieyasu smiled, but he was thinking seriously in his heart.  "If you tell the truth, you may be angry." "Oh. Then I don't need to ask anymore. But why do you think I will lose?" Heisuke looked at his brother Tadashi and said, "I don't know." He slammed a dead branch  He twitched the grass beside him.  Tadashi deliberately frowned and said: "This Heisuke is really a prodigal." "I am not Heisuke, I am Hikozaemon." "Tell your lord exactly what you are thinking." "Because the retainers are not good." Heisuke said loudly, and then  Look at brother,Look again at Kanbara Kohei Taiyasumasa.  "What? You little bastard. What's wrong with the retainers?" Kanbara Kohei Taiyasumasa stared at Heisuke angrily.  "Haha." Heisuke smiled, "I can't say it. If I say it, you will resent me." "Didn't you already say it? Say it quickly!" "No, I don't want to say it. But if you keep me as an errand, you will  You will understand. "My lord, please accept me." "Cunning boy. Hahaha!" Kanwara Koheta Yasumasa laughed loudly, but Tokugawa Ieyasu did not laugh.  Even this immature child seemed to be giving him some kind of hint.  "Okay, I'll accept you - Shichiro Youue." Tokugawa Ieyasu turned to call Tadashi.  "Yes." "You said, accept the challenge, or avoid it?" Okubo Tadashi looked at Honda Kambara Kohei Taiyasumasa: "I have a slightly different opinion from Kanbara Kohei Taiyasumasa." "What's the difference?" "Kamihara Kohei  Taikang Zheng advises you to fight anyway. I don¡¯t think so.¡± ¡°Are you opposed to fighting?¡± Zhongshi shook his head slightly: ¡°I will neither persuade you nor stop you before I make a decision.  There is only one word: "No." "Oh." Tokugawa Ieyasu nodded.  At this moment.  Kanbara Kohei Taiyasumasa laughed loudly.  "Shichiro Righteous, you are so tactful. It turns out that you have to obey the lord's will completely. But it does make sense." "My lord," Heisuke spoke again, imitating the tone of Kanbaru Kohei Taiyamasa, "In this battle,  Please give me the spear." Tokugawa Ieyasu nodded and stood up.  He suddenly understood that he should not ask his retainers for their opinions.  Failure to listen to their opinions may sow the seeds of strife.  So he immediately said, "The sun is going down. Let's go back." He looked up again and looked at the mountains connecting Kai and Shinshu.  No matter whether the Takeda family wins or the Tokugawa family wins, the mountains will still stand there Thinking of this, Tokugawa Ieyasu suddenly felt a pity.  Back in the city, Tokugawa Ieyasu asked his servants to bring wine for the first time.  The food is still white rice mixed with half wheat rice, and there are three vegetables and one soup.  Because of Tokugawa Ieyasu¡¯s frugality, Okazaki¡¯s warehouses were abundant.  Meals without delicacies from mountains and seas are more memorable when chewed. Every grain of wheat contains a long and delicious taste.  actually.  The same goes for life and battle.  "I want to drink today." Tokugawa Ieyasu said to the servant serving on the side, and drank the sake with a painful expression.  He is not an alcoholic.  Just want to understand how people who are addicted to alcohol feel.  What kind of enjoyment did they get from the wine?  In Tokugawa Ieyasu's view, wine has no merit except that it makes people wander around and forget themselves.  While drinking, Takeda Shingen's shadow appeared in front of him again.  The wine tastes bitter and not sweet at all.  If you drink it like this, the only thing you will feel is bitterness.  "It's sweet now. Not too bitter." He seemed to suddenly remember something, "Call Xixiang." He ordered his servants, and then took a big gulp of the hot soup.  Saigo Zaemon Sasei was about to leave the city when he was stopped by a servant sent by Tokugawa Ieyasu.  "Lord, are you eating?" "It will be finished soon. Just a moment." After Tokugawa Ieyasu finished speaking, he ignored him and drank three bowls of hot soup before he said, "Where are the things I left with you?" "  "You forgot? Didn't I tell you that the summer before last?" "You mean - Ai, please come here."  He looked at Tokugawa Ieyasu blankly, and then looked at the sake bottle next to him.  Saigo knows very well that the protagonist Tokugawa Ieyasu is not the kind of person who makes jokes after drinking.  Even so, when the whole city was in a tense atmosphere because of rumors that the Takeda family was going to invade Mikawa, the lord suddenly ordered Ai to come. Isn't it too ridiculous?  According to Tokugawa Ieyasu's instructions, the Qing Dynasty adopted Ai as an adopted daughter the summer before last and raised her two children on his behalf.  But he was still a little dissatisfied.  Since she was an adopted daughter, she should get married in two or three months; but she didn't expect that after two years, she still had no reply.  Therefore, Qing Yuan kept telling himself that the master was just joking and should not be taken seriously. He also persuaded Aai in the same way.  Seeing the hesitant appearance of the cleaner, Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was not drunk, urged sternly: "Why are you still hesitating? Is Ai unwell?" "Yes." The cleaner seemed to want to say something more, but finally stood up  got up.  Tonight, Tokugawa Ieyasu's expression was so grim that no one could refuse.  After the cleaners left, Tokugawa Ieyasu picked up the wine glass again and asked people to pour wine.  It's really strange to drink alcohol after a meal Although the attendants around me were puzzled, they still?He filled it obediently.  But Tokugawa Ieyasu had no intention of drinking immediately, so he asked the servant to leave the food and lean on the table lazily.  The sun finally gave up its last ray of light. A candle was lit in the room, and the flame rushed to the high roof.  The sound of insects came from somewhere.  About half an hour later, Xixiang Aai finally came over accompanied by the Qing officers.  "I heard that you just finished eating." Aai fell to the ground.  Tokugawa Ieyasu didn't reply, just looked at her.  For a long time.  Tokugawa Ieyasu fought in the east and west, racking his brains every day for victory or defeat and the survival of his family; although he occasionally thought of Ai, he really had no time to go find her.  Moreover, the main wife, Mrs. Tsukuyama, has been having conflicts with him since she was released from the Imagawa family, so Tokugawa Ieyasu has no time to think about Ai Coupled with many complicated affairs, Tokugawa Ieyasu often thinks about it.  Ah love, but I can't find it in the end.  Ah Ai was obviously neglected and seemed embarrassed.  Her eyes were shy.  Guessing Tokugawa Ieyasu's thoughts.  Uneasy.  Make her look more pretty.  Under the candlelight, her smooth skin looked very delicate.  "Qingmen, please go back and rest." Tokugawa Ieyasu said, still staring at Aai.  "Yes." The Qing officer agreed, but did not stand up.  "What are you still lingering on? Go back and rest!" "Yes. So, Ah Ai" He glanced at Ah Ai who was lying on the ground and stood up.  The two servants accompanying him also felt nervous all over.  "Aai, raise your head. I can't see you." "Yesyes." "Come forward. I have something to tell you." "Sir?" "Do you still remember what I said? Starting from tonight, you  Responsible for my daily life. Do you understand?" Aai looked at Tokugawa Ieyasu in surprise.  Her voice was low and she lowered her head: "Yesyes." Tokugawa Ieyasu's eyes were still fixed on Aai: "Do you understand? Answer me clearly." "Yes slave understands  "Okay! That's it! Let's fight against the Takeda family." After finishing speaking, Tokugawa Ieyasu laughed wildly.  No one knew what was going on in his mind.  Can hard work change a person¡¯s destiny?  If you insist on changing those things that cannot be changed, it will be in vain in the end; if you do not work hard on things that can be changed, it will be laziness.  In other words, there is destiny that is changed by people's acquired efforts, and there is indeed a life dominated by destiny.  What is puzzling is that man cannot move against nature, but what man can do.  All because of the hope of escaping fate.  Tokugawa Ieyasu is now standing at this crossroads, carefully comparing the pros and cons of life.  If you regard destiny as something absolutely unchangeable.  It will inevitably lead to extinction; if you regard yourself as an absolute existence that can change everything, you will fall into illusion and blindness.  But no matter how the world comments, people can probably only regard themselves as absolute existence, and there is no other way.  Regardless of success or failure, all people have to do is practice according to their own will.  Hearing Tokugawa Ieyasu¡¯s unquestionable tone, Aai seemed to understand immediately. From now on, her destiny is to work hard to obey.  Tokugawa Ieyasu's order seemed cold and ruthless on the surface, but it pointed the way to confused people.  "Ai, if you really understand, just take the cup and come here." "Yes." After a long time, Ai seemed to have finally made up her mind, and she walked up to Tokugawa Ieyasu.  Tokugawa Ieyasu drank the wine in one gulp and handed the cup to Ai. He found that Ai's hands were no longer shaking as much as before, and he couldn't help but smile.  Looking at Ah Ai, he seemed to suddenly understand what she was worried about.  For a woman who loves with all her heart, there is nothing more fearful than the death of her beloved man.  But who can predict life and death?  Incredibly, Tokugawa Ieyasu's heart gradually calmed down and he began to carefully appreciate Aai's beautiful face.  Life is like wine, only after you have tasted all the bitterness can you taste some sweetness.  "Thank you." Looking at Aai pouring wine for him, Tokugawa Ieyasu said softly, "You have a good temperament and great appearance. You will have a wonderful life in the future." "Thank you Many thanks, sir." "You're welcome.  Honda is here, you can relax." Honda Sakuzaemon came to the entrance and saw Aai in the room. He couldn't help but smile: "It's rare to see my lord drinking." "Sakuzaemon, I can't bear it anymore.  "How can you allow others to pass by the side of the bed?" Sakuzaemon looked up at Tokugawa Ieyasu with a worried look on his face.  If possible, I really want to persuade Tokugawa Ieyasu to let the Takeda family pass.  According to his experience, when encountering turbulent rapids, the best way is still to avoid it.  Because the rapids will not stop on their own unless they reach the sea.  Only when the stream becomes gentle can we build embankments.??Guide it and lead it.  Or he might find a way to divert disaster to the nearby Imagawa family, or even join forces with the Imagawa family to resist the Takeda family.  "Sakuzuo, what do you think?" "If I object, will the Lord listen?" Zuozuo rolled his eyes and looked at Tokugawa Ieyasu.  Tokugawa Ieyasu immediately scolded: "You bastard! Let me know if you have any opinions, it's my business to make the decision." "Thank you many thanks." Sakuzaemon straightened his posture, leaned on the ground and said, "Since my lord said so,  I have nothing to say. If you let us die, we will not hesitate for a moment." Tokugawa Ieyasu stared at Sakuzaemon closely, and then turned to look at Aai.  "Zuo Zuo, you actually talked about it till death. You're a weird guy." Aai was silent. Zuo Zuo's words seemed to remind her of something.  "I have put life and death aside. Matters of life and death are decided by gods and Buddhas. I only need to do what I need to do." Tokugawa Ieyasu said with emotion.  "Lord." "What's the matter?" "I thought you were an abrupt person." "Zuo Zuo, your words are too much." "No, no, I am telling the truth. I didn't expect you to be so young at such a young age.  You can ignore life and death, but you are willing to risk your life to fight." "You are getting better and better at talking." "It seems that I made a mistake. Then please show off your youthful passion and heroic spirit."  He regained his careless expression, "But I think you should not be too young and energetic." "What did you say?" "No, no, this may be my unfounded worry. I just think that you should not be too young and energetic. Oda's reinforcements have not yet arrived.  When I arrived, I rashly stepped into danger. Of course, I was overly worried." Tokugawa Ieyasu frowned slightly and said with a bitter smile, "I no longer have that courage."  Don't worry. You are amazing. I hope your will and determination can be conveyed to every samurai." Tokugawa Ieyasu nodded.  Unknowingly, Sakuzaemon talked about the issue of morale.  He intended to remind Tokugawa Ieyasu that he must reveal his determination to all retainers and ask them not to let any Takeda person go.  "Okay, it's settled!" Tokugawa Ieyasu stood up with a stern expression, strode to the yard, and looked up at the night sky.  He no longer had any fear or confusion, and the cool night air blew on his chest.  "Come to the Takeda family? And, Imagawa family, what will you do?" (Thanks to "kingleo" for the 100-point reward support.
