    At the end of September in the sixth year of Yonglu (1562), there was frost in the mountain city in autumn.  The green leaves outside the window gradually turn red, indicating to people that winter is coming.  Two months ago, when the Tokugawa family captured Nagashino Castle, Takeda Katsuyori received the news and was immediately upset by the news. He stayed in his bedroom, pressed his lips tightly, and listened seriously to the latest battle report.  .  In these two months, the Takeda family not only lost Nagashino Castle to Tokugawa Ieyasu, but also lost thousands of soldiers and horses sent to chase the traitor Okuhira Sadano and his son, and failed to capture the castle that Sadano and his son had captured.  Takiyama Castle.  "How is Saburobei?" Takeda Katsuyori said in a stern tone.  The twenty-four or five-year-old young spy sent by Dr. Nobumitsu Takedazaemon turned his head dissatisfied: "Since the day Nagashino Castle fell, he has been listless." "Where is Nobharu?" "He is the same. Ever since Nagashino Castle was lost.  Shinocheng, after retreating to the second mountain of Horaijiguchi" "Did he also lose his fighting spirit?" "That's right. My master said that Ichijoemon-sama and Xiaoyaogen-sama also changed their tempers." "Katsuyori Takeda silently controlled.  Controlling his emotions, he was speechless for a long time, staring closely at the corner of the bedroom.  "Your name is Katayama?" "Yes. The villain Katayama Kanrokuro." "What do you think is the reason for everyone's low morale?" "The villain thinks there are two reasons." "First, what is it?"  "The Okuhira family among the Yamaka family has defected to the Tokugawa family. Maybe the remaining two families will betray you, so you need to be careful." "Oh. It means that Suganuma Izu and Shinpachiro are not trustworthy, right?" "Not only that,  The Horai Temple and the nearby wild warriors cannot take it lightly. "Oh. I understand." Takeda Katsuyori did not ask for the second reason.  He knew if he asked again.  The young man might say loudly because news of Takeda Shingen's death was leaked.  Now that I think about it, my father is actually Takeda's backbone.  I didn't expect that my father's death would cause so much pain.  Not to mention that Kai's morale is low and the people's hearts are shaken, there are still people who don't think highly of Takeda Katsuyori and don't trust him It's all because of his father's bravery.  But if he continues to withdraw his troops, it will play into Tokugawa Ieyasu's ambitions.  "The implication of your words is that you should pay attention to the direction of the people near Fenglai Temple?" "Yes." "Then suppress the people there. Okay. You go down and have a rest." Kanrokuro was obviously not convinced, and seemed to be  Something to say.  What he wants to say must be what it was like when Lord Shingen was alive, and what it is like now.  Takeda Katsuyori turned his head deliberately indifferently.  He didn't know that his anger and sighs actually had a deeper reason, and he couldn't simply attribute everything to his father's death.  But the more he explained it this way, the more regretful and irritable he felt.  Even if Takeda Katsuyori is not as good as his father, he is by no means mediocre.  Unable to gain the trust of his retainers, he was always restless.  He was supposed to prove his strength to others.  But the anger gradually caused Takeda Katsuyori to lose his rationality and judgment.  After rejecting the spies, he propped one elbow on the support table.  Silent and speechless.  After a long while, he opened his blood-red eyes and said to the servant: "Open the door." The cold wind passed by, and a maple leaf fell on the tatami.  "Are you okay?" Atobe Daisuke asked from the side.  "The wind is a bit cold." Takeda Katsuyori was in a daze, "Go and tell Shoji Suzuo to bring the hostages left by Sadano and his son." "Do you want to kill the hostages?" Takeda Katsuyori still didn't answer.  He asked his retainers to call him Young Master in order to hide the news of his father's death.  But now he is furious at such claims.  His father's last words asked him to hide the news of his death for three years, but these last words had a great impact on morale.  Takeda Katsuyori believed that his father wanted him to understand the hearts of his family and observe the general trend of the world during these three years; but the ministers in the family did not think so.  They all negatively believed that once the death of their father Shingen was revealed, Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu would join forces with Kenshin to attack Heifei, and the Imagawa family would also take action, so they could not announce it easily.  Fortunately, thanks to the renegotiation of peace with the Imagawa family not long ago, his situation will be more difficult at this time.  Prison warden Shoji Sukezaemon walked in, and two servants were escorting a woman who was tied up behind her back.  She is Kaede, the fifteen-year-old daughter of Natsume Gorozaemon.  ??Here she is not the daughter of Gorozuo, she is the daughter of Rokubei, a member of Okuhira Sadano's clan, and the wife of Sadano's son Sadashi.  She was treated well by the Takeda family before Sadono and his son left Sushou Castle and attacked Kai's army.  "The person you want has been brought." The prison warden greeted Takeda Katsuyori.  Takeda Katsuyori angrily walked to the corridor and shouted loudly: "A Feng, do you know why you are today?" A Feng nodded.  At the age of fifteen, she frowned and looked like a young nun practicing with her hair on.??Looks pitiful.  "As the wife of Okuhira Sadamasa, you must not deceive me." Takeda Katsuyori scolded.  Afeng turned a deaf ear and allowed her servants to push her to the ground. Then, she slowly raised her head and replied expressionlessly: "I am not the young lady of the Oping family." "No?" "Yes. I am just an unknown person.  The daughter of a retainer." Takeda Katsuyori looked around hurriedly: "Have you and Sadashi not held a wedding yet?" "No." Afeng shook his head slowly.  Perhaps she was born with a strong heart, or maybe she was already despondent because she knew she would die, but she looked very calm.  "This is just a scam. When I was killed, it was the day when my master fulfilled his death wish. The master ordered me to pretend to be the young lady." "What did you say? Asking you to pretend to be Sadamasa's wife?" "Yes." Takeda Katsuyori  His body trembled violently.  His anger had not subsided, and he was so stimulated. He suddenly felt that he had suffered a great shame and humiliation.  "You mean, when Oppei and his son sent you to the Takeda family, they were already determined to betray you?" "No." Afeng shook his head expressionlessly, "They had betrayal intentions when they submitted to you." "Sukezaemon  , kill her!" Takeda Katsuyori couldn't hold back and roared.  "No, wait!" He quickly changed his words.  Even this little girl dares to deceive me and look down on me!  His anger suddenly turned into animalistic fire.  The wind picked up, and the strong wind blew the red leaves one after another towards Afeng.  A piece fell on Afeng's hair, which reminded me of the flowers on the heads of ordinary people's daughters.  "Haha" Takeda Katsuyori suddenly laughed and said in a trembling voice: "Untie the rope." The prison warden untied the rope around Feng's body in confusion.  Afeng moved his shoulders and bent his fingers.  Takeda Katsuyori stared at her blankly, "Feng." "Hmph!" "Are you fifteen years old?" "Yes." "Whose daughter are you?" Takeda Katsuyori leaned his head on the support  A few days later, Zhi Yi asked, "If you are not Zhenchang's wife, there is no point in killing you. I will send you back to your father. Who came up with this idea? Zhenneng or Zhenchang?" Afeng looked at it indifferently.  Looking at Takeda Katsuyori, he shook his head.  "Neither Sadon nor Sadashi?" Takeda Katsuyori was so angry when he saw Ah Feng being so calm.  The Afeng in front of him seemed to be a different person compared to the first time.  He couldn't help but feel even more angry at the thought of being deceived by a woman from an ordinary family.  (To be continued)?¡­
