Chapter 148 The Dust Settles
"Your Highness, the entire Shinki City has been cleared by us. After Ukura Yuno cut off and killed his family, he committed suicide in the Tianshou Pavilion." In the military tent outside Shinki City, Masatoshi Heitao bowed to report to Masara. As the city gate was broken, the fate of the destruction of the Shinki family was unchanged. After a little resistance, the Shinki family soldiers in Shinki City were either killed or abandoned their weapons and surrendered.
"Well, after a little rest, you can lead your troops back to Mangari Castle immediately. I am worried that the pirates on the coast there will be some abnormal movements. In the future, the defense of the coastal coast of the south coast of Mangarichuan and the mountains bordering the Hodo family will be handed over to you and Masahid. The Hodo family on the other side of the mountain will never know the details of our family." Masarara said, "As for this place, I will temporarily hand it over to me and Yukisuke. After Tadajiro comes to hand over, I will also return to Notaka Mountain. At that time, Tadajiro's coastal coastal coastal coastal will be handed over to Tadajiro for the garrison. You must pay attention to cooperating with Tadajiro and attack the pirates along the coastal areas when necessary. The next strategy to the west of my family is to drive the many pirates on the coastal coast to the sea."
"Yes, Your Highness" Ping Zuo Zhengzhong bowed to accept the order...-<>--<>-First Warring States Eagle 148 Chapter 148 The dust settled
At the same time, on a mountain road one mile away from Xinmu City, dozens of Ukrainian soldiers who were hurrying to support Xinmu City were rushing to go on a mountain road.
"It's true, this group of farmers is really annoying. If we hadn't walked fast, we would have been surrounded by them." A warrior walking in front complained with lingering fear.
"Forget it, it's good to escape for a lifetime. Just report the rest of the matter to the Lord. The Lord will definitely not let that town down," said another samurai.
"It's really unlucky to say that, why did you get into a chore like mobilizing peasants? These farmers are very irritable recently," the third warrior complained, "Look, we have only mobilized so many people together. When we go back, we will definitely be scolded by the lord."
The other two also agreed.
"Who is ahead? Stop, stop for me, come here and we will shoot arrows." At this moment, several feet in charge of opening the road in front shouted loudly.
"What's going on?" The three responsible samurai stopped talking and walked quickly towards the crowd ahead.
"Sir, run away quickly. Xinmucheng has been captured, the lord has been taken away. If you don't escape, you will be dead." Several farmers who looked obviously deserters shouted loudly. As they spoke, they kept looking back, as if there were pursuers coming from behind.-<>--<>-First Warring States Eagle 148 Chapter 148 The dust settled.
"What? The lord was taken away? The three warriors exclaimed in unison, and the other peasants who arrived one after another immediately started to move.
"Yes, sir, Shinki Castle was captured at noon. Now the city has been occupied. The villain escaped desperately in the melee." The peasant soldier who had just called up raised his bloody right hand and signaled that he had just experienced a death battle.
The three samurai looked at the embarrassing appearance of several deserters coming towards him. They had basically confirmed the fact that the Ukura family was destroyed, and they couldn't help but feel thumping.
"What should we do? You said, what should we do?" One of the samurai broke the silence first and spoke. The demise of the master's family means that these samurai are unemployed and have to consider their livelihood again.
"I have a wife and children at home? I'd better go back and plow the fields honestly and stop wandering," said a warrior.
"It seems that I can't stay here anymore. I'd better go to another place to take a look." The last samurai thought about it and decided to start the wandering journey again, "Where are you?"
"I heard that the Hirado Matsuura family is recruiting samurai, so I decided to go there and try my luck. Since you have not decided to go there, why not go with me?" The samurai who spoke first replied... "Okay, let's decide like this. So what should they do?" The samurai who was about to go wandering pointed to the peasant soldiers behind him and said.
"What else can I do? Of course, I will go back to my own place. Listen..." The samurai who decided to defect to the Matsuura family shouted, "The master family has perished and there is no need to go to defend the city. You all go back."
"Wow" all the peasants and soldiers were as if they were amnesty, and they began to walk backwards. Originally, they were forced to go to defend the city due to the yin power of the lord, but now that the lord is killed, they are of course happy to go to die. In this way, for the whole afternoon, such a scene continued to be staged in various territories of the Shangcang family. For a time, news of the demise of the Shangcang family spread throughout the territory.
At this time, on the coast west of the Shangcang family territory, the two groups of pirates had just met, and a team of dozens of people slowly moved along the path. Suddenly, a pirate exploring the way forward ran back in panic.
"Chief, it's not good," the pirate shouted while trotting.
"What's going on?" asked the leaders of the two gangs of pirates at the same time.
"I met a few deserters in front of me, saying that the guy Ukura Yuno had been killed and Shinki Castle was also broken." -<>---<>-First Warring States Eagle 148 Chapter 148 The dust settled
"Ah?" The two pirate leaders exclaimed, and then looked at each other.
"What do you think? I think we can take the opportunity to go to various towns to rob," said the slightly thinner leader. In the past, he was worried about Ukura Yuno, but now he is dead, his territory is temporarily in chaos, and it is time to take advantage of the situation to rob.
"No, have you forgotten the lesson of Man Yuezhong?" Another leader opposed. Man Yuezhong was greatly damaged by the attack of the Luo family in the middle of the road, and his strength was greatly reduced. Now several restless pirates are preparing to jointly embezzle Man Yuezhong's territory.
"Hiss" The slightly thinner leader shivered. He obviously thought of the experience of Man Yuezhong. He immediately turned around and shouted to the pirate behind him, "Retreat, withdraw quickly." He had decided that no matter whether the news was true or not, he would withdraw from the territory of the Shangcang family...
As the forces of the Shangcang family either dissipated or retreated, the Luo family quickly controlled the entire Shangcang family territory. At this point, there was no powerful force in the west of the Luo family to the archipelago in Imali Bay. The only thing left was pirates of different sizes of various forces. Everything was settled, and the Luo family's strategy to the west came to an end.-<>---The first Warring States Eagle 148 Chapter 148
Five miles later, Tadajiro finally arrived in Shinki Castle. Masara once again adjusted the defense of the west side of the territory. The first standing foot light team led by Tadajiro was responsible for the defense of the north bank of Kamani River to the coast of Imali Bay. At the same time, he cooperated with Sun Goro of Naya Bay to clear the pirates from the adjacent Ribe Peninsula on land. Masatasa led the fourth standing foot light team to be responsible for the defense of the south bank of Kamani River to the coast of Imali Bay, and at the same time blocked the passage connecting Kawatsu and Kishigayayama Castle.
After everything was arranged, Masara, accompanied by Yukisuke, began to rush back to the lord's mansion on Yetaka Mountain. There was a grand memorial ceremony waiting for him.
It was already the end of August, and most of the food in the fields had been harvested by farmers, and some of the fields that had been harvested in advance had even begun to be cleaned up. The leaders held their own fields to prepare for the next year's tillage. Widths of green smoke rose from the fields, which was the grass-grained fertilizer method promoted by Zhengliang. In addition, Zhengliang also vigorously promoted the accumulation of fertilizer method, stacking various manures and other weeds together. After a full chemical reaction, it will be sprinkled onto the fields during the tillage next year.
We moved slowly along the flat road, and from time to time, we saw some leaders building and digging canals in groups. This was paid corvee service organized by the territory, with the purpose of preventing those leaders who had no food income from the field this year from starving to death. And those clear gullies were waterways named "Zhengliang Canal" by the leaders. A series of laws and measures allowed Masara to win the title of the kind Eagle of the Hiroshimatsuura... "Your Highness?" Seeing Masara walking on the ridge of the field, he seemed to be in a good mood. Yukisuke, who had been following behind, gritted his teeth and said in a low voice with courage.
"What's the matter?" Zhengliang did not look back, but just responded casually.
"Your Highness, you have married a wife for a while. I don't know when I will marry a few more rooms. It is good for the stability of the territory to spread more branches and leaves." Yukisuke secretly looked at Masayoshi's face, and finally said in a low voice after confirming that there was no problem.
"Hmm!" Mr. Masayoro was stunned, then turned around and glared at Yukisuke fiercely, "I have my own opinions on the matter of the side room, and I will consider it until the end of the year at the latest." Masayoro has his own plan for the matter of the side room. In order to make stability in the future, at least let Kikuhime be pregnant with the heir of the Luo family before making plans. Yukisuke's abacus Masayoro is also very clear. He was displaced in his early years, and it was only now that he finally lived a stable life. So he hoped to tie himself to Masayoro's ship firmly through his daughter to ensure that his current stable life is guaranteed. Although his purpose was not malicious, Masayoro hated interfering in his own affairs the most, so he took the opportunity to sue him.-<>---The first Warring States Eagle 148 Chapter 148 The dust settled.
"Yes...yes..." Feeling Masaru's dissatisfaction, Yukisuke immediately knelt down on the ground and bowed.
Masayoshi did not affect his mood because of this small episode. On the contrary, he slowed down his pace, while enjoying the pastoral scenery, while patrolling the construction of the territory. After staying in a family of people for one night, on the morning of August 30, Masayoshi and his group finally returned to Nogao Village.
