But as for the foreign war, if this black-robed monk continues to stop them, don’t blame these generals for not giving them face and ruining their jobs!
"Since my junior brother has spoken, let's discuss this matter carefully!"
Faced with the generals' pressure to abdicate, Nagao Kagetora did not tolerate them. She would not change what Axue had already decided.
As a result, due to the tough decision of the head of the family, the meeting ended in an unpleasant way.
Just as Xue walked out of the castle tower and returned to the street, she heard Kato Danzo's report -
"Lord Axue! The envoy from Kai has arrived at your residence! He specifically wants to see you, lord!"
"...An envoy from Kai?"
Axue frowned.
I didn't expect that just after we talked about the war in Kai Province at the meeting, an envoy came to Echigo Province and asked to see me by name.
"Who is the messenger?"
Axue asked the female ninja in return.
"He calls himself Daogui, he's a one-eyed man, and he's a lame cripple!"
The mechanical ninja reported the truth.
But after hearing that description, Axue's heart sank.
Taoist ghost, one-eyed, lame...
There is only one person who fits this description.
That is the first military advisor beside Takeda Shingen!
Kansuke Yamamoto!
Chapter 128 Military Advisor Yamamoto Kansuke
Xian Taoyuan looked at the man in front of her, her eyes full of vigilance.
The man in front of him was not only short in stature, but also blind in one eye and wearing an eye patch. He looked as ugly as a demon.
Xiantaoyuan has been admiring the stunning beauty of Hu Chiyo and Axue all the time these days. It is really hard for her to accept the fact that a man who is even poorer than a farmer in the field comes to visit her.
One is that I can't accept the way he looks.
Secondhand couldn't accept his identity.
This ugly middle-aged man is the number one military advisor of Kai Province, Yamamoto Kansuke, the favorite of Takeda Shingen.
Yamamoto Kansuke drank the muddy wine from the wine pot and joked to Xian Taoyuan, "I have heard of your beauty for a long time. Seeing you today, I can see that your reputation is well-deserved. I think you are the most beautiful woman in the Warring States Period!"
"Military Advisor Yamamoto really takes it as an exaggeration."
Xiantaoyuan is now really smiling with a fake smile.
My family members, who would understand why a lowly Guo Nan showed up at our doorstep out of nowhere.
Not only does he look ordinary and confident, but his pick-up style is also extremely low-class. I really don't know why the Takeda family chose this person as their military advisor...
The lady now truly understood.
Not everyone is Axue, the little monk in our family. These grown men are all virgins, without any cultural literacy, and they speak obscene words all the time.
If Axue comes back, I might as well follow Ahu's example and roll on the floor with him in my arms for half an hour. This should be enough to wash away the nausea in my heart.
Xiantaoyuan was still daydreaming, but saw Axue hurried back home.
"Ah, little monk, you're finally back! Military Advisor Yamamoto was looking for you!"
Xiantaoyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly gave up his seat to Axue.
"Military Advisor Yamamoto, I never expected you to come all the way to visit my humble abode. I truly feel sorry for not welcoming you!"
As soon as Axue sat down cross-legged, she apologized to Yamamoto Kansuke.
Xian Taoyuan lost her temper immediately after hearing Ah Xue's polite words. She said unhappily, "How could it be considered a failure of welcome? I offered him good tea and wine, but he just refused to eat or drink."
"Hahaha, Kai Country has been suffering from a severe famine these years, but the food is not as abundant as yours in Kasugayama Castle. I am a lowly person, so I won't bother Master Xiantaoyuan to serve me."
Yamamoto Kansuke just laughed and continued to drink the wine at his waist.
"Military Advisor Yamamoto, what brings you to Kasugayama Castle?"
Feeling that the defense of the nearby Xiantao Courtyard was slightly broken, Axue immediately changed the subject and went straight to the point.
"I have come to Echigo Province on the orders of my Lord Shingen to seek advice on how to alleviate the famine!"
Yamamoto Kansuke didn't leave any riddles and went straight to the point.
"I've heard that you, Prime Minister Black, have made considerable achievements in recent years. Not only have you promoted the transformation of paddy fields throughout the country, but you've also boldly adopted seeds from the southern barbarians for planting throughout the country. The story of your spending five hundred taels of gold to purchase seeds has long since become a popular legend."
Axue also understood what Yamamoto Kansuke meant, but she still pretended not to understand and asked back.
"So, Advisor Yamamoto, what you mean is...?"
"One thousand taels of gold!"
Yamamoto Kansuke didn't hide anything and just revealed all his cards right away.
"One thousand taels of gold! We in Kai Country also need this bag of seeds!"
Praising the purchase of seeds with five hundred taels of gold is, after all, just a compliment.
People always sigh and blame opportunities for not favoring them, but in fact, real opportunities can be created with money.
When other countries were still engaged in diplomatic tug-of-war with Echigo, Yamamoto Kansuke came to visit in person and offered to buy a bag of sweet potato seeds for one thousand taels of gold!
When Axue heard this, the corners of her mouth curved up.
Right from the start, he generously spent one thousand taels of gold. It seemed that the tactical value of this bag of seeds in Kai Country was very high!
Otherwise, how could he get such a huge reward?
"Oh, what a pity!"
Axue sighed in pain, and said, "I bought these seeds from Lord Oda Nobunaga in Owari Province. Now that we're promoting planting in Echigo Province, I don't have any stock left!"
"......ah?"
"If Military Advisor Yamamoto had come three days earlier, I could have gathered a bag of seeds for you. Now I can't even find a single one."
Looking at Axue's extremely realistic performance, Yamamoto Kansuke was speechless on the spot.
No.
Are you kidding me?
It's okay to make such excuses during normal diplomatic activities.
Now I've come to visit in person, and you tell me it just happened to be out of stock?
Yamamoto Kansuke was so angry that he almost laughed.
Hunger marketing, right?
The quantity is limited every day, so you really can’t get it, so you have to keep paying to get it, right?
"Little brother, we are all sensible people. Please tell me what you need. How can I get the goods?"
Yamamoto Kansuke really had a headache.
I don’t know how Axue got in touch with Owari Province. If I go to Owari Province to buy it, I can indeed buy it by spending a little more time.
But is all Kai Country needs now just seeds?
What is more needed is the successful experience of Echigo Province, which is also a barren country!
Buying seeds is just superficial; buying successful pitfall-avoiding experience and technical personnel is the key!
Moreover, Kai Province has never established diplomatic relations with Echigo Province. Can't we start to improve the diplomacy between the two countries from the seed incident?
Then we can take advantage of the situation and create a Kai-Echigo Non-Aggression Alliance, wouldn't that make everyone happy?
After all, Kai Province is now in dire straits with Shinano Province, and Takeda Shingen is worried all the time whether Echigo Province will take action.
A few days ago, Nagao Tamekage of Echigo Province was about to die, and the inheritance rights in the country had not yet been determined. The Harukage faction and the Torachiyo faction were fighting fiercely, not to mention that the Shimoechiyo Kita were also watching covetously.
Now, just one year has passed and Echigo Province has become prosperous.
Not only did Nagao Kagetora ascend to the throne smoothly, but even the rebellion of the Shimoe Yangbei people was put down without much trouble.
At that time, Yamamoto Kansuke had promised Takeda Shingen that within ten years, Echigo Province would not be able to intervene in the war between Kai and Shinano Provinces.
Now, the boomerang has hit us directly one year later.
The military advisor hated the little monk in front of him.
He knew that it was because of this sudden appearance of the black-robed prime minister that he had disrupted the strategic blueprint for unifying the world that he had previously formulated for his lord!
It can be said that the reason why Echigo Province has made such rapid development today is all thanks to this black-robed Prime Minister Axue!

PS: There will be an update later today.
Go, go, LNG, the LPL semi-finals are up to you!
Chapter 3000: Axue's Domination ( words)
In fact, Axue was not deliberately keeping Yamamoto Kansuke in suspense.
At this morning's meeting, compared to the murderous and war-loving people in Kasugayama Castle, the black-robed prime minister actually wanted to make friends with Kai Province.
After all, based on the experience of the previous life, if Kai and Echigo started a war, both sides would suffer losses in the end.
Both Takeda Shingen and Nagao Kagetora had the strength to dominate the Warring States Period. Although there is no room for two tigers in one mountain, the innocent people suffered in the end after years of war.
If Takeda Shingen really sent Yamamoto Kansuke to ask about farming techniques, then Axue would be very happy to share her own achievements to help them with targeted poverty alleviation through technology.
But that doesn't seem to be the case.
"Military Advisor Yamamoto, please forgive my frankness."
Axue sat upright and asked a very sharp question.
"If the famine problem in Kai Province is also resolved, will the next step still be to attack Shinano Province with all your strength?"
"...Prime Minister in Black, what you said is a bit unreasonable."
Yamamoto Kansuke's only remaining eye showed a look of vigilance.
"Ever since the Onin War, the shogunate collapsed and the world was in chaos. Which lord doesn't have the ambition to unify the Warring States? Could it be that your lord, Lord Kagetora, is content to stay in this small Echigo Province?"
Often after a country is stabilized, the next step is to prepare for war.
Besides, Kai Province is located in the inland mountains and is extremely short of supplies. Compared with the equally short-supplied Echigo Province, Kai Province has never even seen the sea.
Kai Province had no choice but to attack Shinano Province. As long as it could conquer Shinano Province, the country would become rich and strong, and this tiny country would have room to breathe.
If they don't send troops to attack Shinano, what's the point of the Takeda army?
Do you drink northwest wind?
Thinking of this, Yamamoto Kansuke just sneered and shook his head. Now the military advisor felt that the black-robed prime minister in front of him was overly mythical.
Although he became quite famous after he came on stage, he didn't act mean to me when I first met him, but when we talked, he still revealed his childlike thinking.
After all, he is just a child of about ten years old. With his innocent heart that does not understand the cruelty of reality, to what heights can he lead Echigo Province?
"Maybe Advisor Yamamoto is too sensitive."
But Axue suddenly changed the subject and poured a cup of tea and pushed it to Yamamoto Kansuke in front of her.
"Now I am not the Prime Minister in Black, and you are not Takeda's military advisor. You and I are just ordinary monks who have returned to secular life."
Before becoming the Black-robed Prime Minister, Axue was a monk at Linquan Temple.
The same is true of Yamamoto Kansuke, except that he is not only a monk, but also a Taoist priest.
Compared to Axue who only practices Buddhism, Yamamoto Kansuke is also proficient in Shinto knowledge.
