After listening to Yu Qiuping's narration, Matsuhira Motoyasu looked at the hanging map for a long time. He seemed to have never changed from such a huge contrast before, and the Matsuhira family also lived under the suppression of the Imakawa family for more than ten years. Therefore, when Yu Qiuping pointed out the changes in the strength of the other, it really took him a while to react.

"But..." Matsuhei Motoyashi's tone was obviously shaken, "If the Oda family and the Imakawa family are evenly matched... Even if I stay at the Imakawa family, the power of the Imakawa family alliance will overwhelm the Oda family. Can Hongye give me a reason, or can His Highness Oda give me some promises and convince me to turn to the Oda family?"

Yu Qiuhei showed a relieved smile when he saw Matsuhira Motoyasu's attitude relaxation. He knew history well and had done his homework in advance. He paused and said confidently: "I can tell the reasons why the three Matsuhira families of Takechiyo should form alliances with the Oda family."

"Please talk about Hongye." Matsuhira Motoyasu was stunned for a moment and asked.

"The first reason is the future development of the two families' strength." Yu Qiuhei raised his left hand and pointed to the direction of the Oda family. "In the past few months since I came to the Oda family, I have already understood the difference between the Oda family and the Imakawa family. His Highness Oda is talented and talented, and only talent is the only one. Among the retainers of the Oda family, there are countless young talents and experienced old ministers. The entire family is full of energy and vitality."

"On the other hand, Imakawa family," Yu Qiuhei raised his right hand and pointed it at the Imakawa family, but there was a hint of emotion in his eyes that he had not talked about the Oda family. "After the descendant passed away, what is the level of the successor His Highness, Takechiyo, is not unclear. Although His Highness is talented, he is arrogant, obsessed with his fortune and ignores political affairs, and is ambitious but not enterprising. What is even more regrettable is that His Highness obviously does not have the mind and talent of the late His Highness. He is suspicious and trustworthy, and will definitely not be popular. I think His Highness is definitely not the opponent of His Highness Oda. His Highness Oda is definitely not the opponent of His Highness Oda. His Highness Oda is more regretful.

He will lead the Oda family to continue to develop, and His Highness Shima may only be satisfied with defending the city. However, he does not know that he will be able to sail against the current, and he will retreat if he does not advance." Yu Qiuhei paused, "And it is, the talents of the Imakawa family may not be as good as the Oda family. For the time being, relying on His Highness Asahina, His Highness Shoukaini, and Motoshi Okabe can barely compete with the Oda family. However, there are few talents in the next generation. The Imakawa family is comfortable and enjoyable, and the atmosphere of romantic love has really affected too many young people. By the time the older generation is old, the Imakawa family will definitely not be the opponent of the Oda family."

Matsuhira Motoyashi was also a person who had been in the Imakawa family for a long time. Naturally, he understood what Yu Qiuhei said was not false, and nodded with a serious expression.

"The second reason is the innate geographical environment of the two families." Yu Qiuhei nodded with smugness. Because he had watched the development of the entire Warring States period from God's perspective from later generations, his overall view of the situation was far beyond that of ordinary people of the same era. "The geographical environment of the Imakawa family itself determines that the Matsuhide family will never be able to live in harmony with the Imakawa family."

"What do you mean?" Matsuhira Motoyao frowned and asked in surprise.

"The Tojiang and Suruga, which are owned by the Imakawa family, face the sea in the south, and the powerful allies of the Hojo family and the Takeda family in the east and north respectively. When the late governor of the family was alive, he could still compete with the two. However, now, the Imakawa family's strength is far weaker than the Hojo family and the Takeda family, and it is impossible to expand to the north and east."

"In order to seek development to maintain the balance of strength between the alliances, the Imagawa family's samurai family can only go west in order to pursue military merits and achieve promotion. In other words, the only expansion direction of the Imagawa family is Sanhe, where the Matsue family is located. No matter how stable the alliance is now, no matter how the power difference changes, this is an unchangeable fact." Yu Qiuhei said in a deep voice: "Since the establishment of the Seontokuji Alliance, this is also the destined future of the Imagawa family. Therefore, the conflict between the Matsue family and the Imagawa family cannot be reconciled. After the Imagawa family settles within, they will definitely seek to take action against Sanhe. This is not a problem that can be solved by a covenant."

After hearing Yu Qiuping's words, Matsuhira Motokaku was stunned and stood there, without a reaction for a long time. Yu Qiuping's overall judgment made by standing in the perspective of God obviously touched him deeply. He turned his head, stared at the map of the Tokaido area, and finally nodded helplessly, admitting that Yu Qiuping said it well.

"The Oda family is very different." Yu Qiuping changed the subject, "I'll tell you the truth here. Your Highness Oda and the Oda family's first lord, Gong Shin-hsu, have different opinions about Mikawa, and you don't have any strong obsession with Mikawa. Your Highness Oda is determined to be the world!"

"Ambition is... the world?" Matsuhei Motokara repeated, "What a courage this is, His Highness really cannot compare to."

"That's right," Yuqiuhei nodded, "So as long as Mikawa does not cause trouble to His Highness Oda, the Oda family has no reason to have to live and die with the Matsue family - in fact, it is because of this that I will appear here to make peace with Takechiyo. On the contrary, the Oda family's goal is to go west to Urao. What we want to make a strategy is either to go north to conquer Mino and Omi; or to go south to march from Ise, Iga, and Yamato to Kyoto. Therefore, I am happy to accept the Matsue family in the east as an ally to ensure the safety of the rear."

Matsuhira Motoyashi patiently listened to Yu Qiuhei's long speech and tried hard to digest the meaning. After a while, he asked hesitantly: "I agree with the trend of the Oda family and the Imakawa family. But... if the Matsuhira family and the Oda family form an alliance, where should the Matsuhira family go?"

"Well," Yu Qiuping's face rose a little sad, "Survey the Imakawa family."

"Hmm?" Matsuhei Motoyasu was stunned for a moment, "Survey the Imakawa family?"

"That's right." Yu Qiuhei nodded, "With the Oda family as the backing of the west side, Takechiyo can boldly move eastward. The Imakawa family has many conflicts, and it was previously barely maintained by the authority of the late governor of His Highness. If His Highness Shima could not show enough talent, the Tomeng people would not obey easily. In addition, the conflict between Asahina and Okabe, the Imakawa family would only gradually weaken due to continuous internal friction, which is the opportunity for Takechiyo to attack Tomeng Suruga."

"But what after that?" Matsuhei Motoyasu asked, "Faced with the alliance between the Takeda family and the Hojo family! What should I do! Even when I attacked the Imakawa family, the Hojo family and the Takeda family sent reinforcements, I had no choice!"

"Take Chiyo doesn't have to worry about this." Yu Qiuhei shook his head, "The Seontoji Alliance will not be a solid piece of iron forever. In a short period of time, the Hojo family and the Takeda family may not provide strong assistance to the Imakawa family. The Takeda family is busy with confrontation with the Echinho Uesugi family, while the Hojo family is committed to pacifying Kanto. As an ally of the Takeda family, the relationship between the Hojo family and the Uesugi family is also very bad. The Uesugi family, the Kanto leader, will not confirm that the Hojo family conquered the city and ignored it, and will definitely lead the rich families to actively resist."

"When you arrive," Yu Qiuhei hesitated for a moment, and decided to help Matsuhei Motoyaki "predict" the future. "The cruel and ruthless Doctor Takeda Oshin, after seeing the weak Imakawa family, may even agree with Takechiyo to divide the Imakawa family together. The Hojo family is also likely to break up with the Takeda family, and the Seontoji Alliance will break up."

"Of course, this is just an assumption," Yu Qiuping hurriedly put his words back a little, "but when the strength of the Kawa family weakens, the alliance will definitely not remain unchanged."

"Even so, I'm afraid I won't be able to take advantage of the Takeda family and the Hojo family." Matsuhei Motoyashi shook his head.

"But at that time, His Highness Oda and His Highness Matsuhei could not be the little daimyo they are now. At that time, the Oda and Matsuhei families that were unfolded will not fight Takeda Hojo? Why can't Take Chiyo also imitate the late governor of His Highness and become the daimyo of the Three Three Kingdoms of Junyuan!"

The scene described by Yu Qiuhei's words is extremely tempting. Matsuhira Motoyashi dreams of having the power of Imakawa Yoshimoto and revitalizing the Matsuhira family. Yu Qiuhei's incisive analysis made him understand that alliance with the Oda family is his best and only way out.

However, he still had some questions - on the private level.

"Red leaves," Matsuhira Motoyasu hesitated for a moment, and said, "You...I...what do you say," Matsuhira Motoyasu paused, "I always felt that... you have a deep affection for the Imakawa family. Even if you have left the Imakawa family, you still miss him. Just like you are the late governor of the family... Why do you advise me to deviate from the Imakawa family? If you are good for the Imakawa family, shouldn't you hope that I will continue to be an ally of the Imakawa family?"

Yu Qiuping smiled bitterly when she heard this and shook her head helplessly. Without Matsuhira Motoyasu, he had no conflict in his heart? He also wanted to do his best to protect the Imakawa family, protect the family governor His Highness and His Highness Sezuna's efforts to make their lives.

But he understood that it was impossible. The decline of the Imakawa family was already destined and was clearly written in history books. As long as the fate of Imakawa Yoshimoto could not change, the Imakawa family was destined to be destroyed. Yuqiuhei's efforts may only delay this result. However, if Yuqiuhei really tried to make the Matsuhide family always an ally of the Imakawa family, it would be very likely that history would deviate from its original track, and Yuqiuhei's greatest reliance - the foresight of history, would be gone - his assassination of Oda Nobunaga and avenge Imakawa Yoshimoto and Semine Shin-shi would have no way to talk about his plan to assassinate Oda Nobunaga and avenge Imakawa Yoshimoto and Semine Shin-shi.

A person who can't give up nothing can save nothing. He must make a choice, and he also makes a choice.

"So, tell Takechiyo the third reason." Yu Qiuhei pulled the topic back and looked at Matsuhira Motoyao, "For you, this may be the most insignificant reason. But for me, this is the most confident reason."

"That's--" Yu Qiuping dragged his tone.

Matsuhira Motokaya looked at Yu Qiuping, and he suddenly saw unparalleled confidence and pride flashing in Yu Qiuping's eyes. He raised his right hand, snapped his fingers in front of his face, and pointed his index finger straight at Matsuhira Motokaya himself. That kind of spirit and eloquence looked very much like Imakawa Yoshimoto.
