Takasaka Masanobu said thoughtfully.

“Upholding the great cause of peace in Kanto, restricting the Kanto warriors to negotiate within the framework of the Kanto Palace Council, and ensuring the peaceful development of the eight Kanto states is the new Kanto strategy set by Tsuta-dono.

His Highness Uesugi has always expressed support for the new strategy, and the Uesugi family retainers have also benefited greatly from the new grand review system. The Uesugi family has no reason to continue to be our enemy."

Takeda Shingen chuckled, interrupted Kosaka Masanobu's thinking, and said directly.

"Uesugi Terutora didn't want to destroy Tsutado-dono's strategic plan, she just simply wanted to kill me.

I have a feeling that she already knows about Rena's existence."

Kosaka Masanobu was shocked.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! If Her Majesty Uesugi already knows about the existence of the young master, why didn't she tell Tsutama-den?"

Takeda Shingen looked at Rena who was laughing and washing her face in the distance, and said lightly.

"Like me, she understands Tsutado-don's character very well. She knows that if Tsutado-don learns of the child's existence, he will never do anything to the child.

If you think about it carefully, if Terutora Uesugi knew about Rena's existence, he would definitely know what happened in Yantian City back then.

With her crazy love for Jinduo Temple, how can she allow me and my evil descendants to continue to live in this world?

But she didn't dare to let Jinduodian know about this, fearing that Jinduodian would be merciful and prevent her from achieving her goals.

Therefore, she can only plan secretly, hoping that during the hiatus when Tsutado-don is away from Kanto, she will attack the Takeda family and kill Rena and me."

Kosaka Masanobu turned pale when he heard this.

"Your Highness, then you must not provoke Oda Tokugawa!

Behind us is Her Majesty Uesugi, who is full of hostility. Once she seizes our opportunity to send troops to Tokaido, she will definitely make you fall into a situation where you are attacked from both sides."

Takeda Shingen smiled bitterly.

"If I don't take action, I'm waiting to die.

The Great Council of the Kanto Palace has connected the entire Kanhachishu samurai family, and there is no shortage of admirers of Tsutado-don among them. If Uesugi Teruhora doesn't take action now, it means she is still looking for allies.

The Standing Council will be officially launched in the spring of next year. As permanent members, Shima Katsuruo and Yamanaka Yukimori are loyal followers of Tsutado-don. They may not be seduced by Uesugi Teruhora.

And that Sanada Nobushige who served as a one-year non-permanent director, Masanobu, do you remember her? That half-grown girl who cried in front of her soul and was forced by me to humiliate Tsutado-den.

She is now very powerful. She has become the master of West Ueno, holding tens of thousands of stones in her hands.

In addition, the Hojo family has always been dissatisfied with my invasion of Suruga Kingdom. The Hojo clan still holds the Imagawa family governor, the Imagawa clan, in its hands, so there is no need to find another excuse to send troops to Suruga Kingdom.

What should I do if Terutora Uesugi convinces these people and waits until they are fully coordinated to attack the Takeda family together?

If I don’t kill Tokugawa Ieyasu first, then when I am surrounded and suppressed by the Kwantung Allied Forces, the Tokugawa family will follow to add insult to injury, invade the Suruga Kingdom, and instigate the Suruga people to rebel, will I still have a chance to survive?"

Kosaka Masanobu was speechless when asked and could only sigh.

"It's a really embattled future."

Takeda Shingen smiled.

"When I decided to give birth to Rena, I had already thought through the worst possible situation in the future, and the current situation is not even the worst.

Holding the imperial letter of General Ashikaga in my hand, I went to Luo to participate in the siege of Oda Nobunaga in the name of the shogunate's justice.

There are several recent forces restraining Oda Nobunaga. As long as I can quickly defeat Tokugawa Ieyasu, I can find a way out of this predicament.

Nobunaga's siege is the most important thing in the world right now. As long as I send troops, Tsudo-dono, who is nearby, will definitely pay attention to me. Uesugi Terutora and the others will also be afraid of taking action casually.

Therefore, I must seize this opportunity firmly and mobilize troops after the spring plowing next year. We must defeat the Tokugawa family and forcibly open the Tokaido.

Only by taking over the two countries of Toyo and Mikawa and being strong enough, can the Takeda family withstand the pressure from all directions and prevent the enemy from daring to act rashly.

I have no choice."

Kosaka Masanobu was silent when she heard that. She looked at Takeda Shingen who was talking eloquently. She couldn't help but think that even though he already knew the predicament today, Takeda Shingen was still determined to give birth to Rena. Is this love?

Although Takeda Shingen rarely mentioned Shiba Yoshigan, how much did she love Shiba Yoshigan in her heart that she was willing to take the initiative to step into such a desperate situation?

She was gambling with her own life and the family fortune that she valued more than her own life, and she must give birth to this child who belonged to Takeda Shiba.

Kosaka Masanobu looked at Reina in the distance and shook his head.

"Your Highness, you are suffering too much."

Takeda Shingen smiled.

"Being able to get the little angel Reina and watch her grow up day by day will make all the hard work worth it.

By the way, do you still remember Anzhi Anzan?"

Kosaka Masanobu nodded.

"Is he the one you sent to suppress the old village leaders in Yantian City and supervise the security of Dongxin Xianfang Zong?

Didn't you already deprive her of her position and send her back to your Aneshan home to think about her past?"

Takeda Shingen said.

"Anji Anayama is a very good Samurai Hime, but it's a pity that he was young and naive and didn't know he was being taken advantage of.

Even before his death, Yukitaka Sanada never forgot to cause trouble for me. Only a young man like Anji Anji who has never experienced hardships would believe that the Sanada family immediately fell into civil strife and split as soon as Yukitaka Sanada died.

Anji Anayama actually wants to unite with the Sanada family of Toshin to attack the Sanada family of Nishi Ueno. Do you think this is ridiculous?"

Kosaka Masanobu said.

"Isn't this the case with civil strife in the Wu family? As soon as the family governor dies, the heirs start attacking each other. It's not surprising that the Anoshan Security Council misjudged the matter."

Takeda Shingen shook his head and said.

"Sanada Yukitaka had a rough life and went through a lot of hardships before he could return to his hometown in his later years. Naturally, he had to arrange his funeral arrangements properly before he dared to close his eyes with peace of mind.

The Sanada family of Toshin followed me, and Nobushige Sanada followed Tsutado-don. No matter what happens in the future, the descendants of Sanada will be able to survive this troubled time stably. Yukitaka Sanada is really good at calculating.

It's a pity that Anayama Anji is too immature, so I drove her back to Anayama's house, and she was scolded by Anayama Nobu-kun for her nonsense, so she rushed to Nishi Ueno and asked Sanada Nobunaga for the crime of provocation."

Kosaka Masanobu said in surprise.

"Anayama Nobu-kun wants to force this niece to death?"

Takeda Shingen sneered.

"It only took Sanada Nobushige three years to climb from the fields of Matsushiro Senshi to the high position of Lord of Nishi Ueno. It is a miracle.

The men under her command are brave and good at fighting, and are known as the Sanada Warriors. They are the first soldiers in Kantung and are among the most elite in the Kantung Shifu.

This time, Sanada Nobushige was again promoted by the Kanto Shrine Council and became one of the three non-permanent directors of the first standing council.

Do you think Nobu-kun Anayama would offend the hot new boss of the Kanto Palace for a niece who made a mistake?

It's a pity that Nobu-kun Anayama also underestimated Sanada Nobushige. The little girl who cried so much that she almost peed her pants in front of Yantian Castle has now become a powerful figure and is worthy of Nobushige's name.

Anji Aneyama went to Minawa Castle and wanted to commit seppuku in front of Sanada Nobunshige, but Sanada Nobunshige stopped him and was accepted into the Sanada clan."

Kosaka Masanobu said solemnly.

"Anji Anji is one of the most outstanding young people of the Kai clan generation, so he was entrusted by His Highness to guard Yantian City.

Such talents have been lured away by Sanada Nobushige, and it is indeed Nobu-kun Anayama's mishandling."

Takeda Shingen chuckled.

"Xinfan, Xinfan, I was still a minor girl back then, but after I came to Yantian City, I took on this name. Can you guess why?"

Kosaka Chang felt confident.

"Does she resent you, Your Highness?"

Takeda Shingen smiled and said nothing more.

Kosaka Masanobu already knew that the Takeda family was in a very dangerous situation. No wonder Takeda Shingen decided to go to Luo after spring plowing. He really had no choice.

But the two of them didn't know that Takeda Shingen was still too optimistic about the situation, and the reality was even crueler and worse.

Takeda Shingen doesn't know.

Hojo Ujimasa loved Ushiba Yoshigan and already knew about Takeda Rena's life experience, so he decided to help Uesugi Terutora to encircle and suppress the Takeda family.

Takeda Shingen doesn't know.

Shima Katsuki and Yamanaka Yukimori both have a physical relationship with Shiba Yoshigan, and their love for their master is not inferior to that of Uesugi Teruhora. Once these two Kanto bosses learn the truth, the consequences will be disastrous.

Takeda Shingen thought that he had obtained the shogunate's righteousness by holding the shogun's imperial letter, so Uesugi Terutora would definitely shrink back and miss the best opportunity to encircle and suppress the Takeda family.

However, if powerful figures in Kanto such as the Hojo clan, Shima Katsume, Yamanaka Yukimori, and Sanada Nobushige unite to support Uesugi Teruhora.

Will the Kanto side still watch Takeda Shingen calmly go to Luo and easily expand territory?

Those who are good at swimming drown.

Takeda Shingen, who admired Sun Tzu's Art of War and always planned before taking action, made a miscalculation this time.

———

Echigo Country, Kasugayama Castle.

Outside the castle tower, Sanada Nobushige yawned lazily, attracting the eyes of Shima Katsume and Yamanaka Yukimori.
