Chapter 1474: Falling out and ruthlessly raising the butcher's knife(2/2)
When Gen. Geng of the Katsurayama clan heard that Takeda Shingen was going to kill his entire clan, his eyes turned red.
"Takeda Shingen! You are going against the grain! You will not die a good death! You will not die a good death!"
Anesama Nobu-kun was still unwilling to give up and asked through gritted teeth.
"His Highness said that Kazuyama Clan colluded with Tokugawa Hojo to rebel. Did he collude with Tokugawa or Hojo?"
The implication of Nobu-kun Anayama's words was that he wanted Takeda Shingen to produce evidence. He couldn't just kill the whole family for an unfounded reason, right?
But before Takeda Shingen could say anything, General Takeda Akabi, Yamagata Shokage, the leader of the clan, came forward and said.
"No matter who she colluded with, she deserves to die, right? Could it be that Princess Anayama still wants to stand up for a traitor who cheats on others and question His Highness?"
How did Anayayama Nobu-kun know that Takeda Shingen wanted to attack the Suruga people today? As for excuses, he could always find them.
Tokugawa Ieyasu has been secretly doing business with the Takeda family in recent years, delivering benefits to the Suruga people and winning over many people.
In the hands of the Hojo clan, the old master of the Suruga Kingdom, the Imagawa clan, is even more able to win the hearts of the people of Suruga.
The Takeda family is in such a bad situation that the Suruga Kingdom will never be able to hold it back.
In this case, there is no need for Takeda Shingen to be polite to the Suruga people anymore, and he just drags out a few people who are ready to behead their heads, just to show off to the people of Kai and Shinuga.
Before withdrawing to Kai Country, Takeda Shingen will clean up Suruga Country and remove some hidden dangers.
Takeda Shingen ignored the dispute between Yamagata Masakei and Anayama Nobujun, waved his hand and asked people to drag Katsurayama Clan down, then picked up a roster from the document and said.
"Baba Nobuharu."
"Hi!"
Banba Nobuharu of the Hatamoto clan came forward and respectfully took the roster.
Takeda Shingen sighed.
"Arrest people according to the list, and their entire family will be killed."
"Hi!"
As soon as these words came out, the Suruga people couldn't sit still.
But the Hatamoto Hime warriors surrounding them were wearing kabutos and holding sharp blades. They were unprepared. If they resisted at this time, they would inevitably be covered in blood for five steps. In desperation, they could only lower their heads and wait.
As names came out of Nobuharu Baba's mouth one by one, Samurai Hatamoto Hime arrested people on the spot. Finally, someone whose name was called couldn't bear it anymore and stood up to resist.
However, Hatamoto, who was well-equipped, used a human wall against the rebels and slashed at them with knives. The rebels were instantly chopped to the ground. In this small space, the participants in civilian clothes could not resist at all.
Fortunately, Baba Nobuharu only read a few names and then stopped. The Suruga people whom Takeda Shingen identified as traitors were all dragged down by the Hatamoto Hime samurai, and their heads were quickly presented as sacrifices.
The rest of the Suruga people were still in fear after the disaster, and the others were also silent. The atmosphere in the entire meeting hall was stagnant, and no one dared to speak nonsense anymore.
Kazuyama clan was the one who was instigated by Nobu-kun Anesama to make noise. Now that he saw her head on the plate, Nobu-kun Anesama felt his face turn red and he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
Takeda Shingen's unexpected violence instantly quelled the tide of her secretly fueling the situation, which was a huge loss.
Nobu-kun Anayama was about to scratch his neck and say something else, but his hand was held down by Nobumo Oyamada beside him.
Nobu-kun Anayama glanced back and saw Nobumo Oyamada gently shaking his head and writing two words on the back of Nobu-kun Anayama's hand with his finger, "Kosaka."
With his eyes slightly widened, Nobu-kun Anayama realized that Kosaka Masanobu, Takeda Shingen's die-hard loyalist, was not in the meeting hall.
Anayayama Nobu-kun looked at Oyamada Nobumo with a questioning look in his eyes, but Oyamada Nobumo looked away and bowed his head respectfully without saying a word.
The Anayama family and the Oyamada family are both semi-independent forces among the Kai clan.
Regardless of whether the relationship is good or bad, Oyamada Nobushige will definitely give Yamada Nobu-kun a hand just for the fact that his lips are dead and his teeth are cold, but he cannot let her be stupid and seek death.
The doubts of Anayayama Nobu-kun are also the doubts in Oyamada Nobushige's heart.
Where did Kosaka Masanobu go?
Also, facing the desperate situation of internal and external difficulties, Takeda Shingen dared to raise the butcher's knife regardless of the intensified conflicts among the retainers.
